Boldan family (Oct 08 Red)
Robert and Jane Boldan lived in Barmby on the Marsh round about 1843, they are on the 1871 census. They had a daughter, my greatgrandmother who was called Sarah Askham. I think that the Boldan family came from nearby Asselby.

Brown family..Barmby on the Marsh (Apr 08 Red)
I am researching the Brown family and have got back to a John Brown who was born in 1788 and lived in Barmby on the Marsh. He married a girl called Sarah born in 1789. They are buried in Barmby churchyard also in the same plot are two of their 8 children. Nearby is the plot of a Wilson and Sarah Annie Brown (nee Chadwick) my great grand father. His son Wilson Hartley Brown moved away and became a farmer at Swillington Common near Garforth. Any information regarding the Browns at Barmby prior to 1788 would be most welcome
