    Notes 
    • We are not sure exactly where this family lived. They were recorded as being at Bramley when they married in 1748, and they were apparently at Pudsey in 1769 when Grace died. The first three children were baptised at Bramley Chapel, the last four at Pudsey Chapel but none of these baptism records tell us where the family were living at the time. Obviously they could have changed residence over that period of 21 years. For now we have assumed that they were at Bramley up until the baptism of the fourth child, and at Pudsey from then on.
