Have You Lost Touch - Page 3?

I am not an expat, but searching for long lost relatives. My paternal grandmother was Janet Moore, nee HOLLINGS. I would like to make contact with her family in Yorkshire. In 1901 her brother Flanders Henry HOLLINGS had premises at 68 Regents Place, Bradford Road. He had a second wife Hannah, and children Harry 14, Walter 12, John 11, Frank 9, and Arthur 8.
If anyone can connect me with  any of their families I would be grateful.

Living in beautiful Vancouver, I am returning to Hudderfield for a visit after an absence of some thirty years. It would be great to meet up with some old school chums from Spring Grove. Left in 1956 (no emphasis on the word old of course). If you remember me please contact me (Sherlock) so we can organize a get together to chew the fat. Oh, is'nt that a TV show? Dont be shy contact me.

Royds Hall School has not closed. It is not the same as it was but it is still going (see message on previous page).

My Grandfathers name was Talbot John Franklin. but he was known as Jack.

I am trying to find the descendants of George and Sarah SHEARD (Sarah nee GODDARD). They were my grandparents and lived, as did I, in Berry Brow. Uncle Harold was part owner of Littlewoods Painters and Decorators. There were a number of uncles and I had cousins called Colin and Leslie who were uncle Arthur's children and Irene who is now Irene Hall who was uncle Gordon's. Uncle Alan and uncle Norman also had children, but I have no names for them. If anyone has any information I would be pleased to hear from them.

Trying to locate relatives of John Rhodes (born Cartworth c1846) and his wife Lavinia (born Hepworth c1846).  Also Ada Dyson (born Huddersfield c1870) married to William Rhodes (son of John born Holmbridge c1869).
Any help appreciated.  Thanks

I am looking for any info on my grandparents - Martha G Saunders born 3/30/1869 & Frederick W Taylor - born 8/18/63 married prior to 1891 - gave birth to son Donald S. Taylor in 1891. I know it was a long time ago but if anyone can suggest where I might find records- it would be greatly appreciated.

I would like to know if I might post something on your bulletin board. I am researching my paternal grandfather's family, the Broadheads some of whom were born in the Holmfirth/Huddersfield area.
    My grandfather was called Edward, he was born in 1896. He was sent to live in Canada at the age of 14 - with his mother's brother & family. Edward's mother was born Caroline Agnes Taylor in 1871, & his father Alfred William Broadhead in 1868. They married in 1892. Caroline had 8 siblings: George (1867), Arthur (1869), Amy (1875), Percy (1877), Frederick (1879), Harold (1881), Harry (1883) & Florina (1884). Amy went to New Zealand in the early part of the 20th century, Caroline & Alfred going with them. Alfred died there a few years later. Edward had a brother called Harry. My grandfather lived with Frederick Taylor in Winnipeg, Frederick having moved there around the same time I believe as Caroline & Alfred taking the family to NZ. Caroline's parents were Caroline Witpen & George Taylor. Caroline Taylor's father accidentally drowned in the 1890's which appears to be suicide.
Alfred's parents were Hannah Rogers & Samuel Broadhead  - they were schoolmasters in the Barnsley area at West Bretton School. Alfred had 4 siblings: Gertrude (1871), Florence (1872), Harry (1881) & Muriel (1882). Samuel's parents were Joshua Broadhead & Mary Goddard. Samuel had the following siblings: John (1841), David (1843), Sarah (1844), Joshua (1848), Mary (1850), Ann (1851), Lydia (1853), Leila (1855), Clara (1859) & Alfred (1862). All born is Austonley (or possibly Holmfirth). I have marriages so far for (besides Samuel!) John & David. Joshua's father was a John Broadhead - I think I may have located his mother, who was a Lydia Butterworth. From the info I was directed to, I can trace the family back to around 1600. John's parents were a Joshua & Sarah Broadhead, Joshua's parents were Joshua Broadhead & Ann Haig, Joshua's parents were Robert Broadhead & Mary Kay.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
