The family recorded their marriage and childrens births at the Knarlesborough Quaker Meeting House, NE of Harrogate. However they were living at Rawdon early on, and later at Allerton, Bradford and then Calverley. The first reference to a Grimshaw in these parts is in the will of William Ives of Guiseley (an ancestor of the Yeadon mill family) in 1538 when he left a legacy to a Grimshaw. A direct line can be traced back to Edward Grimshaw (died 1635) who married Isabel Collier in 1588. He was a tenant of Francis Rawdon and had the chance of buying his freehold but did not have sufficient capital. A friend, perhaps John Marshall, did however purchase and Edward’s descendants remained tenants of Ivy House, Over Lane, until the 1880s though there were successive landlords.

Innholder of Crooklands, but from the burial record, was later a farmer at Allerton, where he died.

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. 1687 - 1764 Joshua Grimshaw 77 77 1686 - 1774 Jane Oddy 88 88 1653 - 1721 Jeremiah Grimshaw 68 68 Jeremiah married as his first wife Mary Stockton of Guisbrough and from them descended John Atkinson Grimshaw, the Leeds painter whose work is now very much sought after. From the painter’s brother there are now numerous descendants in Australia.

In July or August 1682 Jeremiah Grimshaw had been accused of speaking or preaching in conventicles, and when he refused to swear the Oath of Allegiance he was committed to prison in York Castle until April 1683. He spent a further six months imprisoned in Scarborough Castle in 1684

Her father was Josiah Collier (1595-1677).
 1657 - 1707 Abraham Grimshaw 50 50 Abraham married twice, Rachel and Elizabeth, both with the surname Bond. If they were sisters, the second marriage would not have been valid at that date.

This location became the site of Ivy House. ~1575 Dorytye (Dorothe) Ranger Anothe website has Isabel Collier, married the same year, but this is probably an error.  There is a marriage for them 14 years earlier, in 1588. 1671 - 1700 Grace Ibbittson 29 29 1700 - 1700 John Grimshaw 2d 2d 1660 - 1699 Sarah Overend 39 39 1688 - 1697 Sarah Grimshaw 8 8 1663 - 1732 Edward Grimshaw 69 69 1687 - 1724 Benjamin Grimshaw 37 37 1698 - 1763 Hannah Grimshaw 65 65 Hannah married John Lister ~1662 Susannah (Susan) Smith 1697 Jeremiah Grimshaw 1656 Sarah Grimshaw 1654 - 1697 Marie (Mary) Grimshaw 43 43 ~1655 James Frankland ~1566 Isabel Collier 1678 - 1748 Pheobe Cockshaw 70 70 1691 Elizabeth Grimshaw 1695 Mary Grimshaw 1703 - 1769 John Grimshaw 65 65 John married Sarah Cooper and had 7 children:
