Volume 23 Page 272
The Thomas Pickles who died at Stanningley in 1862 (aged 80) was alive and there in 1851 and 1861, and had his birthplace as Ilkley, but there are no Ilkley baptisms for him.
Name: Thomas Pighills
Death Age: 62
Birth Year: abt 1785
Burial Date: 18 Apr 1847
Abode: Marlow
Parish: Bingley, All Saints, Yorkshire, England
Another Thomas Pickles from Bingley was buried 22 July 1865, aged 83, so born about 1782, but ours is from Marlow
General Notes
In 1784, Thomas was born in Marley. He married and lived near Colne for about 15 years, before returning to Marley.
Was Thomas a bit of a joker? Three days after Thomas married Mary Roberts at Colne, another Thomas Pickles of Colne married Martha Thornton, also at St Bartholomew's.
In 1812-14, the family lived at Wanless (when Thomas and John were baptised)
In 1816-26, the family lived at Dick Stiles, SSW of Colne.
In 1841-51, Thomas, Mary and family lived at Marlow (aka Marley), Bingley. Thomas was a "Wood Cutter" and "Labourer" (1845), and Woof Bailiff (1846 & 1847).
There was an Eleanor, daughter of Wm Thomas Cockshott of Marley baptised 6 Dec 1755, and Mary Ann 22 Sep 1757. It appears that the name Cockshott may be derived from this family, also living at Marley. Thomas baptised his son William Cockshott Pickles in 1820.

There were two other Sarah Pickles with father Thomas, one from Colne, one from Haworth, both born in 1824, and both with mother Mary. However, all other records are consistent with her being born in 1826.
Its likely that Sarah and family was actually from Southfield, 1 mile south of Colne which, according to 1881 census, is where brother William C was born.
