CARR REFERENCES 20 July 2003

John, I’ve trawled my index for Carrs. Here are the entries:

Carr. Mrs Ann. 26 Wellhouse Road. (Barrett 1902)

Carr Anthony. Member of council 1923 to 1932. 1929 to 1932 (Chair). 1937 to 1949. (chair 1945/46). Died June 28 1957.

Carr. Anthony. Grocer, Newtown Barnoldswick. (Barrett 1902)
Ditto. Manufacturer in Butts Mill with 262 looms. MCED 1912. (M/c exchange dir.)
Ditto. Applied for looms in Butts in 1905, address given as Butts, probably because he was already a tenant in the mill which was owned and run as room and power by the Calf Hall Shed Company.
Tenant in Butts in 1903. (CHSC minutes 1903)
Ditto. Tenant in Butts and not intending to move (CHSC minutes, 29 Oct 1913)
Ditto. Vacated tenancy of Butts and replaced by Edward Aldersley (CHSC minutes 10 December 1913.

A Carr. Report in Craven Herald 12/09/1930. He stated that A&G Carr were continuing in business at Crow Nest Shed. They had woven out as part of an agreement with Crow Nest Shed Company. Once cloth stocks were sold the looms would start again. (This was most likely a move to get a reduction in rent for stopped looms while cloth stocks were reduced. SG)

Carr. A&G. Trading in Crow Nest Shed in report in Craven Herald dated 22/07/1932.

Carr. Betty. Spinster. Farmer at Crook Carr, Bracewell. Age 66, farming 155 acres with 2 labourers. (1851 census)

Carr. Elizabeth. Townhead, Barnoldswick. Unmarried. Hand Loom Weaver, wool. Son James, 2 months old. (1851 census)

Carr Farm. William Starkey, 15 acres. (1871 census) (SG note, this is almost certainly Carr House and not Crook Carr)

Robert Bradley Carr appears to have held the Post Office in Barlick in 1918. He had a printing press in the back room and his wife and seven children lived over the shop. His two sons Robert and Gordon took over and eventually founded Carrprint which is still trading in the town.

Carr. John. Greenbanks Farm. Age 41. Farmer of 20 acres. (1871 census)

Carr. John. Barnoldswick Hey (district round Hey Farm), Aged 56, widower, labourer. James, son, 26 Butcher. Elizabeth, 14, Power loom weaver (cotton). Richard W. 12. Winder. (1851 census)

Carr. John. Shopkeeper at Stock, Bracewell. (Baines 1822) (This interesting in that the village of Stock died as everyone moved into Barlick to work in the mills. SG)

Carr. John. Elector of Bracewell in roll of 1837. Address given as New House.

Carr. Johnson, Occupation drainer. House on Skipton Road Barnoldswick. (Barrett 1887)

NEW HOUSE FARM, BROGDEN
