* Sugden Smith, son of James Smith and Hannah (nee Shackleton)
was born in Haworth, 1834 and baptised in 1835. |
| |
|
|
(previous census transcriptions have incorrectly shown Sugden as "Snyder")
There are several Sugden Smiths showing in the LDS, all from Keighley or relatives of this Sugden Smith.

**Susey (b:c1840) and Hannah (b:c1849) |

|
|
**Susey Smith married John "Thomas" Brogden.
One of her sons was called Edgar Smith Brogden.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
I believe that the following data is probably correct for James Smith...... |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
James Smith born in 1804 in Haworth,
the son of William Smith and Hannah Sugden of Haworth, Yorkshire
|
| |
|
|
James's parents - William Smith and Hannah Sugden were married in 1803.
(Note - James had named his second son Sugden after his own mother's maiden name)
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
***1871 Census Data given below is of the family of William Smith (eldest son of James Smith & Hannah Shackleton). Note that William had followed the same example & gave the name Shackleton to his second son, after his own mother's maiden name.

|
|
Our Parents: |

|
*John Henry SMITH born July 7, 1904, Bramley Yorkshire, and |
| |
|
|
Dorothy Ellen Thurston born September 3, 1908 Bobcaygeon, Ontario. |

|
FREDERICK WAINWRIGHT SMITH
born August 16, 1875, Goodson's Row, Bramley
|
| |
|
|
and HENRIETTA LLOYD born Sept. 14, 1875 Bramley
|
| |
|
|
(See photograph displayed above this summary - of Frederick & Henrietta with their sons c1905) |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Fred and Henrietta were married at St. Peter's Bramley Dec 25, 1897.
Came to Canada around 1905 or 1906. |
| |
|
|
I believe Fred came earlier as they had........... |
| |
|
|
a son Clifford born 1901,
*My dad John born 1904,
and Hilda born 1905.
|
| |
|
|
Fred must have had a job lined up before they came over.
They resided in Peterborough Ontario for 15 years then moved to St. Catharines
about 1920.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Frederick died in 1935 and his obit. states he is survived by one brother in England
(***the brother - Herbert Wainwright Smith - further notes further down summary)
|
| |
|
|
Frederick was the son of |
| |
|
|
Joseph Smith and Ann Wainwright |
| |
|
|
Joseph & Ann were married at the baptist Chapel Bramley July 22, 1871.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Joseph was born about 1847 |
| |
|
|
According to the 1851 Census, he was born in Bramley. |
| |
|
|
He was the son of Benjamin SMITH of Rothwell parish and Mary or Marian. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Benjamin SMITH was Christened March 14, 1806, Rothwell Parish, & the son of
James Smith and Mary ??
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Fred (My grandfather) had a brother*** born February 13, 1874, Haley's Yard Bramley.
His name was HERBERT WAINWRIGHT SMITH & he married Elizabeth Ann BURNELL.
|
| |
|
|
Both boys had their mother's maiden name as their second name and thats the only way I found out this much information |
| |
|
|
Their mother, Ann Smith nee Wainwright, died in 1878 and from what information I have gathered -
Joseph's sister, Sarah raised Herbert, and Frederick stayed with his father.
( Aunt Sarah married a John Brook)

2 Queries...... |
| |
|
|
SEEKING FURTHER INFORMATION for....... |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
1) HERBERT WAINWRIGHT SMITH (born 1874 Bramley) |
| |
|
|
m to ELIZABETH ANN BURNELL in Bramley. ie: family etc. |
| |
|
|
As Herbert was my grandfather's brother but raised by their aunt Sarah, I know nothing except his marriage certificate which I ordered a year or so ago.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
2) JOSEPH SMITH, the father of Herbert and brother Fred (my grandfather) |
| |
|
|
A record of Joseph's birth c1847? I dont know of a middle name for Joseph.
His wife Ann nee Wainwright died when the boys were small.
I haven't been able to find out if Joseph ever remarried which I think he must have.
|
| |
|
|
I just don't know where else to look for any information of these 2. Tried everything. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. |

May-June 06 Requests for Help: |
| |
|
|
subject: Death and Place of Burial |
| |
|
|
I would appreciate any information on the whereabouts of HERBERT WAINWRIGHT SMITHS place of burial. He lived in Bramley as far as I know also that he possibly died in the mid 1940's.His wife was Elizabeth Ann Burnell. |
| |
|
|
I was wondering what the names were of cemeteries close to Armley and Bramley and if anyone can tell me close they are together?
Looking at a map has been no help to me I am afraid.
I'd appreciate any help with this. |

July-Oct 06 Updates: |
| |
|
|
July 06:
I have been having some interesting findings for my Smiths and some of
my ggg grandfathers family were born in Dewsbury which I have heard is
close to Rothwell. No wonder its so hard to find some people when the Parishes
change over the years. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Aug 06:
I haven't found out anything of Benjamin Smiths parents, James and Mary or Marian.
I did find some of their family Christened at Dewsbury but not my gg grandfather Joseph. Just a couple of his siblings. All I know
about him is Rothwell Parish. Sure is confusing with different towns named as birth places for some of the same family.
I have checked Leeds indexes with no luck
If anyone comes across any info I sure would be happy to hear. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
