• Notes

  According to Cudworth (p 470), a number of early Presbyterians of Calverley and Farlsey area joined the Baptist Church at Bradford, under the pastorate of Mr Crabtree. In 1777, with Crabtree's consent, Rehoboth Chapel, Bagley, was built. Most of the trustees were clothiers. After 1800 there was much dissention and the more active members withdrew and joined the Baptist Church at Bramley. I think that the Crabtree mentioned above must have been the William Crabtree referred to on pp. 14,16,18 by Sellers. However, I can see no immediate link to Mary. In his "Histories of Manningham, Heaton and Allerton" Cudworth writes: p.47. In Bradford the old "Top o' t'Town Chapel" in Westgate, dating from the year 1753, owed its origin to the cottage meetings held in the house of a Manningham woman, Mrs. Elizabeth Frankland, and this led to the formation of a Baptist community at Westgate under the Rev. Wm. Crabtree, who had been converted under the teaching of Whitfield, accentuated by the persuasive eloquence of Whitfield's friend, the Rev. Wm. Grimshaw, of Haworth. The outcome of this was an arrangement for holding united meetings once a quarter in Mrs.Frankland's house at Manningham, but the central gathering was at Bradford, where a church was formed. Prior to this, however, a small Baptist community was formed at Heaton, which is, therefore, the senior of any others in the district, although dwarfed in importance by the overgrowing influence of Bradford and Manningham. p 189, Overseers Accounts, Heaton: A few items may be culled from the accounts of William Crabtree, overseer for the years 1783-4. He was probably the William Crabtree of Low Moor Farm (now called Parkside), and who built the house, which is dated 1796. He had two sons, Abraham and Samuel, also three daughters, viz. : Mary Garnett, of Idle ; Martha Firth, of Heaton Syke ; and Elizabeth Clark, of Heaton. For a long time William Crabtree was employed in connection with the Leeds and Liverpool Canal at the Bradford end. This seems to suggest that I have the wrong parents for Mary wife of John Garnett of Idle.
