Hi Francis,
I see that you have some info re Orrah's from Huddersfield?My ggggrandfather was Charles Orrah born in Lund nr Beverley 1806 but he moved to Huddersfield and owned a woollen mill.He had 6 children, one of them being Arthur Orrah, my great great grandfather.
Charles was one of 7 children born to George and Ann Orrah (nee Witty).
Most Orrah family lines seems to go back to Ebberston and local area and whilst I think all Orrahs originate from there I dont think George was.
Any information you may have would be gratefully received.I have explored the Ebberston line in some detail, if I have any information that may be of use to you please let me know.
Kind regards,
Sasha Coates
