Neil, thanks for responding to my message regarding the Waterworth (or Watterworth) families in East Yorkshire in the 1700s and 1800s.My gr.gr.-great grandfather, William Waterworth, born ABT Feb 1792, was married to Isaballa Garton at the parish church in Skirpenbeck in 1814. Their first son, also William, was born ABT 8 Aug. 1815, in Dunnington, not far from Skirpenbeck. This leads me to believe that William (1792) was part of the Thomas Waterworth, or Watterworth, family whose family records go back to at least 1723 in the Dunnington parish records. If anyone in England has information regarding the parentage of William Waterworth(1792) or Thomas Watterworth(1723), I would really like to hear from you. I believe that Isabella Garton's father was Thomas Garton. Any information regarding the Garton family in that area would also be greatly appreciated.
