Ken:
Just re read my reply to you .
On reflection now , It sounds a bit “sharp “.
Was not meant to be so .
If I can help further with the Bastardy records or the Dinsdale family’s then I will be happy to do so.

I am related to the Raine family from Northallerton. Aaron Raine was my 4x great granddad.

Is there any connection to your Raine family?

I have a copy of the Bastardy Bonds but they only start at 1852.

However, there is mention of Eleanor Croft and John Raine of Carperby miner:

Feb 1857 Eleanor Croft of Carpbery John Raine of Carperby miner.

March 1857 Eleanor Croft of Carperby John Raine of Carperby no appearance.

Eleanor Croft had 3 children before she married Chapman Dinsdale June 6th 1859 at Aysgarth:

Chapman Dinsdale 39 b Carperby lead miner son of Alexander married Ellen Croft 30 s Carlerby dau of Michael stonemason.

Henry Croft bap May 29th 1851 at Carperby buried Sept 4th 1851 at Aysgarth

John Henry Croft bap Sept 16th 1855 at Carperby

Margaret Croft born c 1857 at Carperby.

There is a John Raine born at Castle Bolton June 26th 1831 son of Joseph Raine and Edith (Horn) who married Nov 29th 1819 at Aysgarth

John Raine died Dec 9th 1900 at Mifflins Wisconsin USA
He married Susanna Anderson.

Hi Daniel - if you are able, could you check your copy and see if there is anything under mother's name Margaret BERRY or Elizabeth BERRY.  I have found Margaret had around 11 illegitimate children up to 1864. I have no idea of the father. They lived in Carperby.  It is possible that the earlier ones were born to her sister, Elizabeth (date back to 1842 so probably not in your records).

How did you get hold of your copy? I couldn't find BBs for Aysgarth parish listed in the N. Yorks Archives.

Thank you, that is really helpful. Margaret had a son registered Q2 1853 - she named him James. When James married he noted his father as James "Berry".
