Hi there
       No wonder I found your family name to be familiar,  Mum lives in the crescent - only a few houses away from what I believe are your relatives, the oneshe remembered was a very tall ( wellover 6ft) man who lived at around131 - 145 The Crescent, also related to one Bill Addy,and an old lady in Green gate close - Mrs Sanderson. One of the brothers worked from Highgate farm - delivering milk. As for St Andrews Tce Mum can't place it, but the church at Bolton on Dearne is Called St Andrews - so it is posssible that the Tce was in that vicinity.
       These are  just vague memories, but maybe they will awaken some distant memories for you.
        Sorry I cant help more

hi denn, its a small world i do have relatives living at no 18 the crescant   that i keep in contact with, my grandparents jack /elsie unthank lived at 33 the cesc,    a i child i remember on visits we seemd to go in /out of most houses in the crescant as thats were most of relatives lived, your right  the unthanks were all tall  then
just spoke with mother [85yrs] she cannot remember exactly were st andrews trce was but thinks it was near the church as you did,
i havent been back there for at least 30 years  so how often  do you get over to uk.
 we also have unthanks in oz as uncle brian emigrated in the 60's   somewhere near sidney / newcastle  area ?
 i think .his widow  daughter and grandaughter still live over there ,
 my grt grandmother was a kate sanderson before marraige b in b.o.d.as was her father too  so maybe the mrs sanderson you rememeber was related to her too
its nice to get  a link  of an area and  folks even if not related , nice to hear form you  ive found this  site to be very  forthcoming with info and by far the best ive come across on internet must be its yorkshire roots LOL.

Thank you all for you reply. This is what I have from the 1891 census

From Illinois State Marriage Index in the U.S. I have
Isaac Unthank married Annie M. Starkey 08/23 1886
John Unthank married Ella Stevens 02/21/1885
Thomas Unthank married Eliza Burris 07/01/1899

I'm not sure how this one fits in but it was on the same page , they lived on the same street so I assume they are related.
