• General Notes
  • It is possible this John (using Highfield Chapel) that married Elizabeth and the John from Lindley that married Mary Wilkinson are reversed (as there is a possible DNA connection for the other John). However, it is only this John that is associated with Highfield Independant Chapel for himself and his children..
    
    The only John Crosland and Elizabeth marriage before Selina was born was in Leeds in 1817.  John is a Cloth Dresser which fits perfectly. Presumably Elizabeth was from Leeds.  Their son Henry married at Halifax.
    
    In 1841, John and Eliz (43 & 45) are at West Parade, Huddersfield with Thomas (19), Henry (17), Ellen (16), Elizabeth (9), John (7) and Sarah (6).
    
    IN 1851, John a cloth dresser and Elizabeth (53 & 55) were still at West Parade with Ellen (26), Elizabeth (18), John William (16) and Sarah (14).
    
    In 1854 Elizabeth died and in 1857 John died. Elizabeth and John Crosland (both 59) are buried in grave 160, together with Selina Thompson (42), John William Thompson (16) and Herbert and Oliver Crosland (infants) at Highfield, Huddersfield Burial Ground.  They are buried next to another John Crosland in grave 159, so is he related?
