      An indenture record for a grave plot dated 1788 bears the name (amongst several others) of John Grimshaw of Calverley, so unless there is another John Grimshaw, Quaker in Bradford, is appears John first came to Calverely before farming at Allerton.

  She died at the age of 71 in September 1824 in Bradford. Her burial was on September 26th, 1824 in Bradford.⁶⁶
  - Death Notes
    
    Did Jane die before Henry moved to Bingley? Theres a matching burial record that could be her:
    Name:    Jane Hudson
    Gender:    Female
    Age:    62
    Birth Date:    1751
    Death Date:    7 Aug 1813
    Death Place:    Kendal, Westmoreland, England
    FHL Film Number:    97377
    Reference ID:    pg 22 #175
    
    There's also a burial Dec 1839 at Bingley of Jane Hudson from Lady House, aged 69, but if this is correct, theres a much better age match for the marriage, but the baptism and parents are wrong.
    Name:    Jane Hudson
    Where is "Lady House"? Well the "Ancient Bingley" book describes the residences: "On the Morton side of the town we find a Deer Park, Walsh Lane, Sty lane (probably stile-lane), Limefield, Greenhill, Lady House, lime works; and lower down Gilstead, Little beck, Sparable lane ..." etc. It appears that lady House is/was in Lady Lane
    
    Perhaps the best march is below (but no age or abode given):
    Name:    Jane Hudson
    Burial Date:    26 Sep 1824
    Parish:    Bradford, St Peter (Bradford Cathedral), Yorkshire, England
