2. Barker

I received the following information sometime ago but unfortunately lost the original in a dreaded 'computer crash' and to my dismay had not backed up the message to my external hard drive so have lost the senders information. If the sender should read this perhaps they could get in touch with me.

"I have ancestors in many of the families who lived around Egton particularly the Harrisons and Barkers.

Reading information on the Barker family with interest I notice it states Timothy Barker's son George born in 1848.

He was my great great grandfather and was in fact born on 10 April 1838 and died as stated on 20 June 1904 aged 66. (Copy of birth certificate attached)

He married Amelia Turner in Scarborough on 28 Dec 1861 where 3 children, Sarah Jane, John Timothy and Joseph Turner were born before moving back to Egton Bridge where a further 4 children, William Clarke, Francis George, Mary Ellen and Amelia Ann were born.

Incidently there are other links between the Barkers and Harrisons in my family.

George (294) and Amelia's son Joseph married Mary Jackson who was the grand daughter of Martha Harrison (6267), daughter of Robert Harrison (626) anad Elizabeth Swales. Joseph and Mary Barker were my great grandparents.

George and Amelia's son Francis married Mary Harrison, daughter of Martha's brother George (6266).

More data on these family lines if it is of interest."
