Hi everyone!
I've been very lucky recently, having found a distant cousin who has been
able to supply me with a large chunk of my CAPSTICK family tree. My
ancestors are listed below.
Catherine CAPSTICK born 14th July, 1860 at Far End, Garsdale, youngest
daughter of George CAPSTICK and Mary nee BLADES. She married John DREW on
14th October, 1876 at Garsdale Chapel. Catherine and John's daughter Jennet
Mary DREW was born in 1879, Garsdale. She married Herbert BEESLEY in 1900 at
Wakefield. Jennet and Herbert BEESLEY were my paternal great grandparents.
George CAPSTICK married Mary BLADES in1840 at Lunds Chapel. They had six
children; Robert 1842, Betsy 1843, Jennett 1846, Mary 1849, John 1853 and
Catherine 1860.
George CAPSTICK was born in 1821, the youngest child of Rowland CAPSTICK and
Betty nee ALLINSON who married at Garsdale in 1799. The other children were;
Peggy 1801, Thomas 1803, William 1805, Mary 1807, Robert 1812 and Agnes
1815.
Rowland's parents were Thomas and Margaret nee COWPER who married in 1763 at
Garsdale. Their children were Agnes 1764, John 1766, Mary 1768, Rowland
1770, Alice 1773, Richard 1776, George 1778, Betty 1781 Thomas 1783 and
Edward 1786.
Thomas CAPSTICK was born at Garsdale in 1740. His parents were John Capstick
and Agnes nee PARNTON who were married at Garsdale in 1726.
I'd love to hear from anyone who has CAPSTICK ancestors.
I'm researching all branches of my family tree and my husband's and so we
may also have other interests in common, too many names to list here!
Kind regards.
