Bishop Thornton 1911 There were 20 Households in the 1911 census with members descended from George Kipling born 1784 in Ripley, Yorkshire, via his children; Elizabeth (1813), George (1815), William (1817), John (1821) and Thomas (1824). George was the son of John Kipling. John Kipling was baptised at Bowes in 1744, the son of Thomas Kipling and Anne Pinkney. He married Anne Armstrong at Bowes in 1768 and a son Joseph was born there in 1775 (Joseph’s subsequent fate is unknown). A second son, Thomas, was born in 1777 (see below - place unknown). There may also have been a daughter, Elizabeth, born around 1782/3. Burials, Teesdale District - Record Number: 334053.2 Location: Eggleston Church: Holy Trinity Denomination: Anglican 15 Mar 1804 Elizabeth Kiplin, of Eggleston, age: 21, died 13 Mar, daughter of John Kiplin (mason, of Bowes, Yorkshire) by his wife Ann In May 1779, the account books of Sir John Ingilby of Ripley Castle record “To John Kipling, for breaking stones for carriage and making 116 roods of finished wall at Scarah Moor £34 13s” and there is a similar account for £10 the following month. Scarah Moor is near Ripley. John Kipling, stone mason of Ripley, married Elizabeth Place of Pateley Bridge at PB on 1 March 1784. It is not known what happened to first wife Anne. A son, George, was baptised at Ripley on May 30 the same year, when John was living at Whipley Moor nearby. A further son William was baptised at Ripley in July 1786 when John was living at Kettle Spring (a farm between Ripley and Bishop Thornton). A daughter Anne followed in 1787 and in August 1789, their third son, John, was born. It was recorded that his father was the son of Thomas Kipling of Bowes. 1 Wife Elizabeth died a few weeks later and was buried at Ripley… … and the infant John died at the very end of the same year. John remarried to Frances Knowles in 1791 (it is unclear if this was at BT or Ripon Cathedral, as both seem to have a record) and a daughter Hannah was baptised at Ripley in 1791, when it was again recorded that John was the son of Thomas Kipling of Bowes. John is recorded in the Land Tax registers from 1798 to 1806 as being a tenant of Sir John Ingilby. Ripley, 1798 John died in 1814 and Frances the same year. Both were buried at Ripley. By 1802, son Thomas was a shoemaker in Skipton. He had married an Irishwoman. Their first child, John, was baptised at Skipton in 1802. 2 Thomas also seems to have served as an army reservist around this time. Thomas and Catherine moved to London where a son George was baptised in 1816 (although aged 9 at the time). St Margaret’s Westminster. 1816 A further son, Thomas, was baptised there in 1819 By 1841, Thomas was living in Grantley, north of BT, with Catherine and Thomas. George had remained in London (see ‘Missionary 1911’) 3 Catherine died in 1845 and Thomas senior died in 1848 or 49. There is (or was) a headstone to him in Aldfield churchyard, giving his year of birth as 1777 (between the last reference to his father John at Bowes and the first at Ripley). Thomas junior’s life is a mystery until he ended up in the Birkenhead Workhouse in 1881. He died in Birkenhead in 1890. It’s possible that William joined the masonic Lodge of Amity at Steeton (near Skipton) in 1806. William married Ann Pullen in at Ripon in 1808. A daughter Sarah was baptised at BT in 1810 and a son John was baptised at Ripley in 1812, when William was living at Killinghall. William died in 1814 and was buried at Ripley. Son John married Elizabeth Kitson at Knaresborough in 1834 4 They had children William (1836), Joseph (1837) and Hannah (1838). John died in 1838 and widow Elizabeth had an illegitimate daughter Charlotte at Killinghall in 1841 The 1841 census shows her at Killinghall I on 6th June She married the following month, presumably to Charlotte’s father. I also assume the children took on the name King. John’s sister, Sarah, also married at Knaresborough in 1834. 5 George married Elizabeth Herrington at Ripon in 1811 Their children were Elizabeth (1813), George (1815), William (1817), John (1821), Anne (1823) and Thomas (1824). 6 Yorkshire Gazette - Saturday 10 March 1832 Daughter Elizabeth had illegitimate children in 1835… …and also Mary (1838) and Anne (1841). In 1841, George was living at ‘Pot Dickey House’, with Elizabeth and two of her children (Anne not having been born at the census date). Sons William and John were working at Thornton Farm for Henry Rishworth In 1851, son John was also living with them, a widowed brick and tile maker, along with son, William. 7 Yorkshire Returns of the 1851 Census of Religious Worship: West Riding (North) By 1861, wife Elizabeth was dead and George was living with son Thomas and daughter Elizabeth, along with grandchildren Thomas (son of George), Anne and the younger John (illegitimate children of Elizabeth) and the elder John (son of Thomas). Their house was named ‘Three Storeys Long and One High’. In 1871, George, Elizabeth and Thomas were living together at Thornton Moor, along with Elizabeth’s children John and Hannah. George died later in 1871. George Kipling (1815) In 1842, George Kipling married Ann Grange and they had a son Richard the same year. In 1851, the family, including two daughters, was living at Sawley near BT. 8 In 1861, they had only a granddaughter, Hannah Grange, living with them. A further son, Thomas, was living with grandfather George (see above). Voters register 1887 George died in 1889. Voters register 1893 (also 1894-5) Anne died in 1894. a) Richard Kipling (1842) In 1871, Richard was a carter at Hartwith cum Winsley He married Susannah Hainsworth at Bradford in 1866 and in 1871 they were living at Bramley near Leeds. By 1881, he was a drayman. Susannah died in 1886. Richard died in 1888 and was buried at Stanningley… … and, as we can see from the 1891 census, eldest son George Hainsworth took over caring for his two younger siblings. 9 By 1911, son George Kipling was unmarried and living with sister Lily and [her] two illegitimate children (#306). George died in Bramley in 1923 and Leonard, in Wharfedale district, in 1973. Ernest meanwhile (#308), just married, was foreman willeyer in the wool trade (a willeyer fed fibres into a "willeying" machine to separate and comb them for carding, often blending fibres in the process). Ernest died in Leeds district in 1955. Richard’s sister Betty appears to have had two children out of wedlock, Ann Ada and Arthur. In 1871, they were living with George and Ann at Sawley They were all still there a decade later. George died in 1889 and Ann in 1894, Betty having married blacksmith Mark Beckwith in 1882. By 1891, Arthur was machine fitter in Ripon, with the step-children, having married Mary Jane Cousins earlier that year. By 1911, they had two children of their own (#320). 10 Son Richard Frances Arthur died in 1947 (having married Beatrice Marshall in 1944) and Arthur himself in 1948. b) Thomas Kipling (1852) By 1877, Thomas was a miner in Leeds. Leeds Times - Saturday 18 August 1877 In 1881, Thomas and Elizabeth were living next door to the Wright family. 1881 Perth Street, Leeds 1891. Accommodation Road, Leeds Elizabeth died in 1898 and Thomas remarried in 1900. 11 Accommodation Road, Leeds. 1901. Having lost their only child, Thomas an Eliza were still living in Leeds in 1911 (#327) Thomas died in 1926 in Leeds. William Kipling (1817) William married Miriam Cartwright in 1842 and their first son John was baptised in 1844. A secon son, William, was born in 1848. In the 1851 census, they are shown as living at Kettlewell Cottage. 12 By 1861, they had moved to Thornton Moor. And by 1871 to Ripon. 1871 Tomlinson’s Yard, Blossomgate, Ripon In 1881, they had living with them two grandchildren. According to ‘England Births & Baptisms 1538- 1975, Richard was the illigitimate child of daughter Christiana, as was John WIlliam. 1881 Tomlinson’s Yard, Blossomgate, Ripon Christiana was at that time working as a servant at a house at Embsay near Skipton. There is a later record of her marrying in 1889 in Knaresborough district. However, Richard and John William were still living with their grandparents in 1891. 1891 Low Skellgate, Ripon William died in 1898. 1901 Low Skellgate, Ripon Miriam died later in 1901 and Richard then appears to have moved to Halifax (#316). I have not traced the future of John William. 13 On his marriage in 1916, he names William Kipling, his grandfather, as his father, possibly because he was brought up to belive this, or because illigitimacy was socially embarrassing at the time. Richard died in 1949. a) John Kipling (1844) John married Margaret Haher in 1873 and their eldest son was baptised John Haher Kipling in 1880. 1881.
