Broughton and Atkinson in Barnoldswick

I have had help with my Broughton ancestors both from Nigel Broughton and Stanley’s transcript of William Parkinson Atkinson’s “Old Barlick”, WPA turns out to have been my ancestor Rachel Atkinson’s brother. Their mother was Ann Broughton. I thought the following details might help others looking for ancestors in Barlick. My direct ancestors are in bold, an asterisk denotes those mentioned in the “Old Barlick” text.

Stephen Broughton b c1774 Barnoldswick m Mary Thorp 26 Nov 1768 Skipton.

Their children: 

1.       Ann Broughton bap 29 Sep 1799 Barnoldswick married Thomas Atkinson*, tailor b c1803 Gisburn, on 16 Mar 1829 at Barnoldswick.

2.       William Broughton bap 07 Jun 1801

3.       Richard Broughton bap 25 Sep 1803 m Jennet Slater

4.       Margaret Broughton b c1808 m George A Livsey* (no children)

5.       Mary Broughton bap 14 Apr 1811

6.       Eleanor/Ellener/Helen Broughton bap 21 Nov 1813 d1871 m John Dugdale* on 27 May 1839 at Barnoldswick. Children all born Barnoldswick: Richard Broughton Dugdale b1841, Alice Dugdale b1843, Margaret Dugdale b1848, Sarah Ellen Dugdale b1851.

Fingers crossed that someone's got something at the back of a cupboard.

The piece I wrote on ancestors in textiles has come out - it includes quotaton from Old Barlick that you kindly agreed I could quote, and thanks to OGFB & the Lancashire Textile project. (It incudes links to this site so there might be some more visitors)

Nice piece Jill and of course I love the fact that all those hours transcribing allowed at least one person to get an insight into something that would otherwise be lost. The whole point of doing the job in the first place. I wonder how many people get a similar result .

Previous experience suggests that if there isn't an immediate response to an appeal, it's doubtful whether there will be any result. Ah well.....

I enjoyed that Jill - both my parents were weavers and I worked in the winding room once during school holidays.  I remember the noise well and learnt to lip read when I went into to the mill to see my parents.

WPA text is edited and formatted, 45,500 words. I shall find some contemporary pics to insert. I need Jill to write me a foreword as a relly and flag up other sources. If any of you have a telephone number give her a ring and let me know. If she gets on with it we can publish this week. Going for a rest now.....

Here's a teaser for you. Ten years ago if you stood in Newtown and looked at the gable end of the building on Church Street that now houses what usede to be Redman's and the music shop you could see this sign. I haven't looked lately but I'll bet it's still there.

Jill, I didn't get the foreword. Please send it to the email address below (change 'at' to @ of course. It's like that to stop it being harvested but you knew that...) Old Barlick goes well, lots of old pics. I looked yesterday and the writing on the gable end is still visible. Must have been good linseed oil based paint!

I was just websearching Barnoldswick as my mom was born there and moved away with her family at approx 5, her dad was William Atkinson and her mom Alice Maud Atkinson (nee Preston) they are related to the atkinsons you're talking about here as I have a family tree that includes William Parkinson Atkinson and the names you've mentioned going back to 1749 Roger Atkinson born 1749 Died 1847 married Rachel Parkinson of Kendal.

My name wrote her story of her childhood including times in Barnoldswick.  If you are interested I can dig it out and send it to you.  I could also scan the info from the family tree.  It was something I looked into years ago but stopped and have stored away somewhere safe ;)
