Memories of North Yorkshire
Wedding Day
I was married in this church on 23rd December 1950 to Eunice Ethel Smith who lived at High Mill Cottage.
Family Memories
Relatives of my mum, she is 85 years young, originally ran the Malt Shovel Inn in Crakehall. My mum was born in 1925 so this must have been the 1920s to 1930s. I have old photos of the Malt Shovel then but can find no records of them.
DODSWORTH FAMILY TREE
I have been tracing the Dodsworth family tree and a lot of my research has brought me to the village of Thornton Watlass. The Dodsworths did and still own the hall so I'm hoping there may be some history to be found. If any body has any informtion or photos please, please get in touch at staceychristina@hotmail.com. Thank you.
65 Year Old Resident, Looking For Reunited Friends Please Read
Hello, my name is John Smith. I used to be a previous resident in the Thrintoft area during my chilhood. I would like to re-associate or contact some of my old companions from the area. Thrintoft is the only place I have great memories of in my younger days and I am looking for people to share them with or to speak to any of my old friends thank you.
PS. I lived there for about 10 years from 1948 to 1958.
My Childhood
As a child I spent many a happy summer holiday in the castle grounds. My aunt was cook at the castle and my uncle worked the land. From what I remember I think it was then owned by the Clutterbuck family. My aunt and uncle lived in the lodge just down the hill from the castle near the church. Somewear in the lake is a necklace belonging to my mum as my aunty and her used to go in the old rowing boat they had. She lost it while they were messing about. I hope to try to revisit the castle one day and take my children to see it, the lake and the old ice house if it is still there.
