Every person buried had a story to tell. Most are long forgotten but, over time, we will add some of the stories that we can find. As it is the centenary of WW1 and because we've been able to use Lottery funding to restore the fallen memorials to those who died in that conflict, we've started there. Most of the research has been done by Dorothy Barker with some material gathered by Carol Cowling at an earlier stage.
Please have a look at these family stories.
We then branched out and included soldiers who fought in the Crimean War, a young sailor drowned in a naval disaster, the Walker family and many more stories.
If you'd like to help or have stories to share of families buried in our churchyard, please contact us.
Langley House, known at times as Langley Farm and, eventually, as Langlea stood very prominently on Towngate at the top of Kirk Lane. It came into the Walker family in 1765 and was inherited by Ann Walker. The attached farmland was from Woodhead down to Tanhouse. Eventually it was demolished in 1943.

These extended families bring stories about a sad case of a suicide, postmasters at Hipperholme PO and the builder of Ripley Street in Lightcliffe (& buildings in Skegness). Sunny Bunces gets a mention as does the P. S. A. Society - there ought to be a prize for anyone knows what type of group this was without using the internet searches.

Suicides are always sad stories for everyone concerned. Even worse, before an Act of Parliament in 1823 burial was not permitted in the consecrated grounds of a churchyard. Dorothy, starting with two names in a book on Brighouse, has traced four cases of suicides buried in our churchyard.

As we often find, so many of the families in Lightcliffe were interlinked over many generations. Investigating one family often leads to another.
Here, starting with the Carter family who were tenants of Giles House quickly brought connections to the Nicholl family and that of the Radcliffes of Smith House. The latter family were related to the Radcliffes of Milnsbridge who, in turn, sold a large piece of land to Ann Walker in 1836.
There's also an article about the sale of land in the Lower Green area of Hipperholme & Hove Edge.

Paul, who lives locally, has researched and written an article about Harold Roberts who is buried in the newer part of the churchyard - he died in 1952. He had survived a very difficult childhood with his mother being legally accused of serious neglect. He was a soldier throughout WW1 but was captured and became a Prisoner of War. Dorothy has added further research and these two articles now tell his story.

We've several Hemingway families and this branch has links to a Tomlinson family and a Mosey family. Abraham was a tenant of Anne Lister at Southolm(e) Farm in Southowram. Actually in the Walterclough Valley and near to Sutcliffe Wood Bottom. Rev Sutcliffe Sowden, who would have been a neighbour, officiated at a Hemingway family burial. It's rare that an officiating priest wasn't the curate at St Matthew's which suggests a friendship.
The story goes on with the establishment of a Leeds brewery, a fire in a Bolton theatre and buying a house from the Ripley estate. And even more families! The Appleyards & the Turners.

Linking all of these families (and others), the article charts a family history which reaches out to the Norway & Sweden borders, involves a fatal accident and a local pub that is still a popular drinking spot. Even stories of Waterloo, a Chelsea pensioner, another Dragoon and how dangerous stone quarrying was.
These Smiths lived, over time, in Lightcliffe, Norwood Green, Low Moor and North Bierley. One branch even moved to Rhode Island, USA. Even a pub named The Patent Hammer, surely the only one ever.
This article investigates a local family some of whom emigrated to America but are remembered in our churchyard. The ownership of the ledger stone clearly states that it belongs to Hannah Denison who died in Ohio, USA.

Every now and again we have a story which doesn't relate to a family directly. We need somewhere to put them. Indeed, even a poem from a Friend.
The first tells a brief story of a travelling communion set with connections to Southowram, Lightcliffe and Shropshire. The second is a casual article on what people did for a living in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
We're also trialling 3 walks around the Lightcliffe of Ann Walker and her family and tenants. These start from the Sun Inn, Lightcliffe Tea Rooms and Crow Nest Park Golf club. Visitors can use a QR code to access the walk that best fits.
Here's a poem welcoming Spring, Awakenings!

Lightcliffe has many links to the Foster family of Black Dyke Mills, Queensbury. The prime one is that one branch of the family, Johnston Jonas Foster, lived at Cliffe Hill and built the new St Matthew's parish church. His brother, John, lived for a time at Holroyd House, Priestley Green.
We will be adding more articles about J J Foster soon. The first article describes the links between Lightcliffe and southern Shropshire with both the Foster family and that of Sir H W Ripley who once lived at Holme House.

Daphne is hoping that the article(s) either on our website or via a Calderdale FHS magazine may bring her some more information about related families. The article mentions links to relatives already on our PoI page e.g. the Manns, the Naylors including Crimean Dragoon Guard Joseph Naylor and the Armytages including Edward Armytage's illegitimate son William Edward Armytage Axon . Other family surnames include Rastrick, Cordingley and Ripley. And then there is that detail about a Shuttleworth relation, a manager for Messrs T.F.Firth & Co, going to the USA to start up a carpet factory.

The several sections are really a single story but we have to split it into sections because of the website software.
What started as a couple of articles has now reached 22. Those written some time ago are gradually being updated as we gain more information about this influential Lightcliffe family.
We've also included an article on the Sutherland Soldiers.The family had dropped the Walker part of their surname.
There is also an article which gives an overview of the families' estates and another on where they were buried. This has now been expanded as more information has come to light.
We will also add additional information which will not be complete stories but will have external links to give fuller pictures. The first example is about Ann Walker's Inquisition into 'lunacy'.
In the late 1840s Hipperholme and Lightcliffe changed dramatically as the railway came through, opening in 1850. Most of the land for the route was owned by the Shibden Hall or Walker estates. The purchase of the land is described in the article 'The development of the railway, the Walker and Lister estates'.
We've now got some information about Ann Walker senior (Ann Walker's Aunt). It confirms which properties she owned how big a fortune she left to her niece.
There is also an article on her charity bequest and how it has been revived. Ann made several property acquisitions in the period 1835 to 1847. These are written up in an article.
There is now an article which summarises what happened to this huge estate and how Evan Charles Sutherland Walker, Ann's nephew, dissipated it in a very few years.
Ian is making some of his notes available as Research Articles. Much of it has been used in some of his articles but is in a different format here. These will be added to in time. Articles 1 includes material on Ann's furniture in Shibden Hall and Share Holdings owned by the Walkers. Article 2 includes a transcription of Parker's invoices to Ann and the 1835 property agreements between Ann Walker, her sister Elizabeth and brother-in-law George Mackay Sutherland. There is then another transcription which covers a ledger produced by Evan Charles Sutherland Walker in about 1865 in which he charts his inherited properties, who they came from and their rental values.
Midshipman Alfred Ripley died at sea at the age of 18 just 4 days after transferring to an experimental warship. Over 450 died and only a small number survived. His parents and family lived locally at the time.
The second article was written by Keith Pybus an author living in Shropshire close to where the Ripley family moved to. It contains a much better picture of HMS Captain than I'd found. We made contact when I read an article written by him in a magazine and contacted him because his unusual surname matched two young men from Lightcliffe who died in WW1 and are remembered on a headstone to the north of the tower.
The third article, also filed under The Fosters, tells of the Ripley family moving to Shropshire.
The 4th article resulted in an enquiry regarding a travelling communion set which started life in Southowram. It is filed here partly because I couldn't think where else to file it but because there is a distant connection to the Ripley family. (Ian)
The 5th article is taken from Bradford & District Libraries Map Collection and covers the life of Sir Henry Ripley.
There was a recent news item that the wreck of HMS Captain has been located in the Bay of Biscay.
