natonstan Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Does anyone have any information or can point me in the right direction. I've been doing some extensive research on the Staniforth surname and my direct line leads to a Henry Stannyforthe who has son William baptized at St. James in 1560, and then he himself dies in 1575 and is buried there. His residence is listed as Herdings. Now obviously pre 1550s there are no parish records but there are links with some very eary Brincliffe Edge Staniforths and other local Norton families that would suggest my Henry was either from, or the son/grandson of a Brincliffe Edge Staniforth and I was curious to know what the area would have been like going way back, I suppose it would have been only a hamlet originally, or maybe even a village.
