John HALSTEAD b1794

John HALSTEAD (1794-?) is the progenitor of Chart 20 and whilst working on cleaning up some of the database I have managed to take John back a further generation to his parents Isaac HALSTEAD and Elizabeth.

There are a number is other children, several of which are already in the database and will therefore all link up further

The children of Isaac HALSTEAD and Elizabeth were all born in Gargrave and are

John (1792-?) married Sarah SHACKLETON
Robert (1794-1802)
Richard (1796-?)
Nathan (1798-?) married Ann STOTT (there is no trace of them after 1851 and I believe that they went abroad)
Alice (1800-?) married William TWISTLETON in 1825 their daughter Ann TWISTLETON is already in the database
Isaac (1803-1803)
Catherine Rycroft (1806-?)
Isaac (1809-?)

This led me to a family tree on Ancestry where I have been able to trace some of the children - some of which are already in the database! The tree goes back to a John HALSTEAD (b1667) so I will have to do some more research on this one.

Will have to wait a while for the parish records to appear online as Gargrave is in North Yorkshire and their records (I suspect) will form part of the Yorkshire records due to go on findmypast.co.uk announced at Who Do You Think You Are Live in February 2013
