  1.  
  2.  
  3. 1851 Census - Park HIll, Idle, Yorkshire - There is a James BRAYSHAW born about 1803 in Idle Yorkshire who could be this person. They have a daughter Hannah aged 10 
  4. 1851 Census - Broom Street, Bowling, Yorkshire. - There is a Joseph BRAYSHAW born 1805 in Idle, Yorkshire who could be this person. He has a son William aged 23 a Wool Comber and   a daughter Elizabeth aged 11. He is a widower
  5. 1851 Census - Shipley cum Heaton, Yorkshire. There is a John BRAYSHAW born 1807 in Idle, Yorkshire who could be this person. They have a son Thomas aged 20 a Overlooker (Worsted) and a daughter Martha aged 10 a Scholar, both born Shipley, Yorkshire.
    There is a marriage on 4th October 1824 at St Peter Bradford of a John Brayshaw of the Parish of Calverley Malster to a Sarah SPEIGHT of the Parish of St Peter, Bradford who could be this couple. The witnesses were William ILLINGWORTH, Abraham SMITH and Sarah ILLINGWORTH. I have no proof that this is the correct couple. I am certain this is the couple on the 1851 Census but do not know if this was the John on the Chart above. It would mean that John was only 17 at marriage. Have therefore not put on a chart for this family until I can prove it is the correct John
  6.  
  7.  
  8. 1841 Census - Thackley End, Idle, Yorkshire
    1851 Census - Thackley, Idle, Yorkshire. 4 children on this Census. 
    Everything points to the fact that Samuel and his wife Lucy were extremely young when they married, possibly only 11 years old. The 1851 Shows Samuel a widower being 40 years old which agrees with the baptism on the IGI. However a daughter is shown, Mary A BRAYSHAW as being 28 years old. On the 1841 Census definitely the same family Samuel is again shown as being 40 but ages were rounded up and down and perhaps he did not want to show he was as young as he was. His wife Lucy is with him and she is shown as being 35. The IGI shows a marriage of a Samuel BRAYSHAW on 19th August 1822 in Calverley which would be correct to a Lucy BROWN, which as I said at the beginning points to them only being 11 when they married.


  9. As children were baptised on the same day I really have no idea what order the children were born. All information for baptisms taken from IGI
    Have now found details on http://www.calverley.info/cal_home.htm for baptisms etc for the Idle area so have now found the birth dates for some of the children. 

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
