1 THE SANKEY FAMILY OF CHURCH GRESLEY FROM 1837

1.1 INTRODUCTION

My first investigations into genealogy were in 1984 when I attempted to start tracing my paternal line. As a side interest to this I also noted down any printed references to the name Sankey, in the hope that they might one day come in useful.

After a few years I had completed my family tree back four generations, and reached the 1837 boundary in the St. Catherine’s House index registers. At this point I had to branch out into other sources such as parish registers, and also had to switch areas, as my 3x great grandfather Matthew Sankey, appeared to be the first Sankey in the South Derbyshire area, his birth having taken place in Cradeley, Staffordshire.

It soon became obvious that finding Matthew’s baptism was not going to be easy, and also that I was accumulating a lot of references to Sankeys that had no immediate connection to my paternal line. At this point it seemed logical to switch the momentum of the research towards a One Name Study, in the hope that eventually I would unearth enough clues to piece my own line together.

In 1990 a mail shot to the Sankeys of South Derbyshire resulted in a wealth of information, and a large number of trees were able to be constructed, all of which led back to Matthew Sankey. In order to maintain contact with the many respondents to the initial letter, I started an annual newsletter, which was published for several years.

After about twenty years my interest waned, and other things took on more importance. Recently, however, my interest has been re-awakened, and the discovery of the Ancestry web site with its wealth of online information has allowed me to fill in many gaps in my Church Gresley trees.

Several of my Church Gresley correspondents insisted that there were several different Sankey families in Church Gresley, and that they were not all descended from Matthew Sankey who married there in 1837. I strongly disagree, and hopefully the descendant charts in this book will show where all the Sankeys ‘fit’ in the six or seven generations which now go back to Matthew.

I have endeavoured to verify the facts presented here, and given references where possible. The stories of these people over nearly two hundred years is fascinating, and I have tried to flesh out the bare bones of people’s lives where possible, due to information passed to me, or gleaned from the various census and other records available.

Please get in touch if you have any questions, or can provide further information to enhance this document. Feel free to pass it on to anyone with the Sankey name, or Sankey ancestors so that the valuable information here does not get lost.

1.3 THE NUMBERING SYSTEM

The d'Aboville Numbering System used in this document is a descending numbering method developed by Jacques d'Aboville in 1940 that is very similar to the Henry System, widely used in France. It differs from the Henry System in that periods are used to separate the generations and no changes in numbering are needed for families with more than nine children.

In this document Matthew Sankey is number 1, and you can identify which generation you are from him by the number of nodes in your unique ID. The number also indicates which sequence of child each generation is, and identifies the paternal line.

So for example, my unique ID is 1.4.5.1.1.1 which means I am in the sixth generation to descend from Matthew. I can also identify my paternal line by removing a node at a time, for example:

Timothy Sankey 1.4.5.1.1.1 is the first child of John Douglas Sankey 1.4.5.1.1 who is the first child of George William Willoughby Sankey 1.4.5.1 who was the first child of Percy Sankey 1.4.5 who was the fifth child of Willoughby Sankey 1.4 who was the fourth child of Matthew Sankey 1

1.4 HOW TO USE THIS DOCUMENT The arrangement of names in this document may appear confusing, but they are ordered to show the generation and the paternal line of an individual, as described above.

It can also be used to identify the relationship between two individuals, and identify a common ancestor in the paternal line.

For example I am number 1.4.5.1.1.1 and in the sixth generation from Matthew Sankey in the first generation. If I want to know my relationship to Audrey Lea nee Sankey 1.4.5.3.1 I can see that she is in the fifth generation, and that we have a common ancestor in 1.4.5 who is Percy Sankey. I am descended through Percy's first child, George William Willoughby Sankey 1.4.5.1 whereas she is descended through Percy's third child Percy Alfred Sankey 1.4.5.3 and she is my first cousin once removed, although to be honest I only know that because Ancestry.com tells me our relationship!

In another example, if I wanted to know my relationship to George Vaughan Sankey the photographer who is number 1.3 then our only common ancestor is number 1 - Matthew Sankey himself. I am descended through 1.4 Willoughby Sankey - his brother. Thanks to Ancestry.com he appears to be my second great grand uncle!

I will be adding an index to make it easier to identify individuals and their number, but for know they will have to be sought out in the Descendant Chart.

1.5 GENERAL RECORD OFFICE Since 1837 all births, marriages and deaths have had to be registered with a local registrar, and all records are then centralized. Indices exist to the national registers for all BMD entries, and these are divided into four quarters for each year. All Sankey BMD entries between 1837 and 1980 were transcribed by hand from the physical registers in St. Catherine's House, London in the days before the internet made everything so easy! Where possible I have shown the BMD entries for the people listed in this document, so that copies of registration certificates can be ordered if needed.

Presentation is generally in the form of: Quarter, Year, Name, Registration District, Reference, but from certain years some additional information is shown. In all cases the surname SANKEY is implied, unless a spelling variant is actually shown.

Births 1837-1911: Quarter, Year, Name, Registration District, Reference 1911-1980: Quarter, Year, Name, Mother's Maiden Name, Registration District, Reference

Marriages 1837-1911: Quarter, Year, Name, Registration District, Reference 1912-1980: Quarter, Year, Name, Spouse's Surname, Registration District, Reference

Deaths 1837-1865: Quarter, Year, Name, Registration District, Reference 1866-1969: Quarter, Year, Name, Age at Death, Registration District, Reference 1969-1980: Quarter, Year, Name, Date of Birth, Registration District, Reference

I have sorted this data into four documents which makes it easier to find people:

BMD1: by date as presented in the original indices. BMD2: by forename. BMD3: by district and date. BMD4: by spouse or mother's maiden name where available.

The latter can make it very easy to pick up a family group, especially where all children are born in the same registration district, for example:

1.9 THE CHURCH GRESLEY MAILSHOT Early on in 1990 I decided to do a mail shot to all the people with the name SANKEY that I could find in the telephone directory for the area of Church Gresley. The results were very useful, with as I suspected, all the SANKEYs in the area being descended from Matthew SANKEY, who married in Church Gresley in 1837.

I assigned an MSnn number to each of these so that I could cross reference them, and later assigned an MSnn number to all correspondents so I could sort their correspondence and keep track of what they were interested in. My list of these names and numbers has become lost, but I have tried to recreate it here, and will add details of letters received where appropriate.

Derbyshire Photographers' Profiles by Brett Payne, of Tauranga, New Zealand

George Vaughan Sankey was born at Church Gresley, Derbyshire in 1842, one of eleven children of a master potter Matthew Sankey (c.1814-1866) and Esther Smith (1817-1902). George initially followed his father and elder brother into the pottery industry, and at the time of his marriage to Lucy Hall (c.1848-1898) in 1880, he still described himself as a potter.

However, by April the following year he was working as a bookseller and photographer - according to the census. Between then and 1888, he operated a studio from his home on Woodville Road, Swadlincote (or Swadlincote Road, Woodville depending on which source you believe), but by 1891 he had moved to new premises at 67 Market Street, Common Side, Church Gresley. He remained in business at this location until his death in 1912. His brother John Sankey appears to have taken over the bookseller/stationer's shop.

18/Nov/1991 A letter from Lavinia, enclosing a cutting from the newspaper on the death of Norman Sankey, her first cousin. Some news on her relatives in Wales, three of whom graduated as lawyers on the same day! This reminds me of a press cutting that Lavinia gave me when I last visited her, it is from the Burton Mail, September 24th 1965 and reads: Inquest on Linton man opened and adjourned - the inquest was opened at Burton yesterday afternoon by the borough coroner on a 'remarkable old man' who died in Burton General Hospital on Wednesday, after being in collision with a motor scooter while crossing the road at Castle Gresley the previous night. He was 84 years old Mr. Harry Sankey, a retired colliery worker of 84 Linton Heath, Linton, who it was said, was remarkably healthy for his age, and who enjoyed walking. The accident occurred at the Mount Pleasant/Park Road crossroads, the scooter involved being ridden by Mr. Robert Radford of 103 George Street, Church Gresley. Mr. Norman Sankey, of 2 Cedar Grove, Linton, said the deceased was his father, and lived alone since the death of his wife about six years ago. He last saw his father alive about 6pm on the Monday, the day before the accident. Mr. Sankey said his father retired from the colliery at the age of 65, and was remarkably healthy for his years. He last had medical attention about six years ago. He was good at getting about, and liked walking, making a journey of a mile to collect his pension. His eyesight and hearing were good, and he was a 'remarkable old man'. Witness said that sometimes his father went for a walk with a younger brother, who was aged 78. The younger brother, Frank, was with him at the time of the accident. He also had good eyesight and hearing. The coroner then adjourned the inquest until October 18th at 2.30pm.

Arthur appears to have signed up for military service on 20th November 1915, giving his address as 24 Queen Street, Church Gresley, aged 20 years 8 months, 5 feet 2 inches tall and occupation of Saddler. He gives as his next of kin Hannah Sankey (his mother) at the same address.

He was discharged five days later as "not being likely to become an efficient soldier".

He came with good references however. T.J. Haskew wrote a note to The Recruiting Officer stating: "This is to certify that Arthur Sankey has been employed by me as a Sadler, and I consider him to be a capable man at his trade, and I may add that he is a highly Respectable and Industrious man."

E. H. Mercer of M. M. Mercer at Darlaston near Tamworth wrote: "Arthur Sankey has been employed by me as a Saddler & Harness Maker for the past 8 months and I have always found him honest & trustworthy and very good at his trade".

Whatever happened in his first five days in the army led to "NOT APPROVED" being stamped across his service record. It might have saved his life, but in 1920 he died aged just 25.

This death entry may not be correct. There are several Dorothy Lilian Bennett death entries, but this is the only one born in 1906, however the July birth date does not match the quarter of the birth entry. Given that her brother was not born in the UK it may be possible that this birth entry is incorrect. Without the birth certificate or census it is impossible to tell.

I cannot find a 1911 census entry for her, so if the birth is correct her parents may have been off on their travels during which the 1912 birth of her brother happened. But where?

Derrick Orgill SANKEY (MS05) wrote back on 10-Jan-1990, he was born 24-Sep-1930, one of a family of seven children, his father was Edward Orgill SANKEY, and his mother Catherine Elizabeth SATCHWELL born in the parish of Blackfordby. This was his father's second marriage, and Derrick was still young when his father died, so does not know much of the family history.

Derrick worked with a Willoughby SANKEY at Donisthorpe colliery in the 1960s, and thinks this may have been my grandfather George William Willoughby SANKEY, however my aunt Jean says that her father never worked at Donisthorpe, so this may have been June READ's father, John Willoughby SANKEY.

Derrick tells me of Norman SANKEY who kept the local fish and chip shop at Linton, and also worked in Donisthorpe colliery in the 1960s. He also mentions Horace SANKEY a local councillor and miner.

P. McGRAW (1.3.2.1.1) wrote in 1990 on behalf of her mother Mrs. A.K. SANKEY (MS02), and states that her mother found an old photo album, but none of the pictures coincide with my names (this could be a treasure trove). She had forwarded my letter to her uncle Paul G.V. SANKEY (MS18) who she thought might know more (he was also addressed in the mail shot). She tells me her father left her mother about 12 years ago, and would probably be more help, he is Robert SANKEY (MS29).

In early February 1990 a letter from Robert SANKEY on the Isle of Man, Robert says that all their family records were lost, which means he can't be of much help. He was able to give me a few names in his immediate family, his grandfather George SANKEY married a HALL, and his mother was Lottie Elizabeth CROWDER. His uncle was George William Frank SANKEY who married Eva but had no children. He also included copies of letters forwarded to him by his brother, relating to the Hastingleigh Sankey Day in 1987 which contained the address of Graham SANKEY, and are included in the correspondence file.

I have spoken with Robert several times on the phone, unfortunately without taking comprehensive notes, I did however for his call of 14-Oct-1990 after he had received the first newsletter. I had made a mistake in saying that both his father and his grandfather had been 50 when their sons were born, this was only true of his grandfather, his father being about 23 when Robert was born.

He also mentioned that one of his great aunts in Church Gresley took in an orphan. He worked in T.G.Green's pottery, and eventually moved to the Potteries . There he adopted the name SANKEY and founded the company that manufactures flower pots (I can certainly remember flower pots with SANKEY embossed on the base).

His grandfather George Vaughan SANKEY used to be a foreman at T.G. Green's . At one point when they were going through lean times they wanted him to put money into the business. Rather than do this he decided to leave and set up a photography business. His father Robert Isaac Vaughan SANKEY and uncle George William Frank SANKEY also went into this business. The studio used to be on the corner of Market Street and Regent Street, Church Gresley, and Robert remembers playing there as a boy. The studio was upstairs in what was originally a private house. Robert remembers being told that his grandfather used to walk to Derby to collect wet plates which were used in the photographic process.

25/Feb/1991 A letter from Robert Sankey in the Isle of Man, thanking me for the latest information on his grandfather, George Vaughan Sankey. He encloses a photocopy of a remembrance card for his grandmother Lucy Sankey, who died July 9th, 1898 aged 50 years. Robert finds it hard to believe that his father would not have told them if George Vaughan had come from so large a family, and mentions that his father only ever mentioned to him two maiden aunts, one of which was certainly Esther, and the other he thought was called Mary [in fact Esther and Elizabeth]. Robert is certain that his father did not have another brother George Vaughan, born in 1894, as he believes he would have mentioned this. I need to order the certificate to verify this [in fact G.V. Sankey born in 1894 was the son of George Benjamin Sankey].

24/Dec/1996 Barbara Sankey from the Isle of Man phoned, her husband died of a heart attack 4 years ago at the age of 76. His brother Paul is in a nursing home. She would still like to receive the newsletter.

Paul G.V. SANKEY replied on 22-Jan-1990, he knows little of the family history, save that the family originates from Church Gresley in the last century, as his father was born there in Market Street in 1893. He has an elder brother Robert SANKEY living in the Isle of Man, and was forwarding my letter to him. Robert phoned to tell me that their father was Robert Isaac Vaughan SANKEY and had an elder brother George William Frank SANKEY. They were the sons of a George SANKEY who was a foreman at T.G. Green's pottery, then became a professional photographer with a studio on Gresley Common.

Phyllis gave me this information on her immediate family: Brother: George Sidney Lawrence SANKEY b. 26/Dec/1898 d. 25/Jan/1965 unmarried. Sister: Nellie Haywood m. Joseph BURNS, one son Horace b. 03/Aug/1926 d. 02/Dec/1986 unmarried. Brother: Horace SANKEY m. Ann VARDY, one son Horace. Sister: Amy Annie d. aged 37. Sister: Ivy Ethel m.

Phyllis was interested in the first newsletter and mentions that her uncle George, who married twice, Ben being his first child, was a photographer, when she was a girl she used to play in his studio in Mount Pleasant.

Phyllis was pleased to receive a copy of the photograph of Willoughby, Hannah and their eight sons, for although she has many photos of her father in later life, she has none when he was young. She had also never seen her grandfather, but remembers as a little girl of about 4, being taken to see her bedridden grandmother, who lived with her son Frank SANKEY and daughter-in-law Gladys. Phyllis thinks the photo was taken behind a small row of houses called Trinity Terrace, where her father lived before marrying. The terrace has since been pulled down.

04/Jan/1991 Receive a letter from a Mrs. Mollie E. Tilley of Church Gresley, member number 4991 of the B.M.S.G.H. She tells me her husband Geoff, now retired, used to know a Brian Sankey, whose father was Tim Sankey. Geoff thinks Tim died many years ago. However they have a dear friend Lavinia Fisher nee Sankey, know as Vi. She is 81 years old and was sister to Tim and aunt to Brian. She attended the village school and then went to Ashby Grammar School, always being a brilliant scholar. Vi has mentioned a Willoughby Sankey in the past.

Wrote back enclosing the Willoughby group photo and notes, asking Mollie if she could ask Vi for her family details. I suspect she could be one of the daughters of Ernest Sankey, who had a son Timothy Harold.

05/Jan/1991 A phone call from Mollie Tilley, Lavinia Fisher (nee Sankey) is the daughter of Ernest Sankey, and would like to hear from me. Mollie has interesting background on Lavinia, and Mollie's husband Geoff remembers a lot about Church Gresley and various Sankeys. The photography studio on the corner of Regent Street and Market Street in Church Gresley has now been refurbished, and is a hairdressers. Geoff who remembers a Sankey many years ago being a cobbler in Church Gresley.

Lavinia is 82 years old, is very well spoken, and sounds half her age. She caught polio at the age of 1. She is in a wheelchair, and last year broke both her legs in a fall from it, but sounds as fresh as a daisy. She was able to give me information on all her brothers and sisters, including a nephew William Jones, who is compiling a Sankey family tree. Lavinia remembers her grandparents Willoughby and Hannah well. She remembers that Willoughby was not religious, and would tell Hannah on her return from chapel to "hang up her cloak, and hang up her religion too". Version 1.04 Page 90 THE SANKEY FAMILY OF CHURCH GRESLEY FROM 1837

Lavinia remembers the photography business of George Vaughan, but is sure that George Matthew Henry was never in that business. he did used to have a small general shop at Mount Pleasant, but it was not a photographers.

Wrote to Mr. William E. Jones (MS41) as he is apparently working on a family tree (he is nephew to Lavinia, enclosing Newsletter 1.

Write to Lavinia with a copy of Church Gresley trees, Derbyshire I.G.I. and Newsletter 1.

09/Jan/1991 Lavinia left a message on the answering machine, and I rang her back. She was able to correct a few things on the family trees, and gave me William Jones' phone number. She also gave me the address of John Wheat, who inherited 181 Burton Road when Percy Sankey died, John now lives in Lincoln. Arranged to go up and see Lavinia on the 19th January, I must buy a dictaphone and record the conversation.

12/Jan/1991 A letter from Lavinia Fisher which contains some great photographs, a portrait of Willoughby Sankey, a portrait of Arthur Wheat, a wedding photo of Arthur Wheat and Louisa Sankey, and a snapshot showing Percy Sankey, Louisa Wheat and her son John Wheat. Lavinia has postponed my visit to her next week as she doesn't feel able to entertain us. I write back suggesting that I just come for a chat.

Reg married Phyllis HILL on Boxing Day 1936, and the day after moved to Derby where they are still resident in the same house. He remembers his grandparents at Mount Pleasant very well (Willoughby & Hannah) and their eight sons. His father had a family bible but it wasn't used to record births and marriages.

Harold SANKEY (MS23) wrote on 01-Feb-1990. Harold was good friends with my grandparents, and was born in Linton, moving to 183 Burton Road, Overseal in 1927. Harold believes Hannah SANKEY died about 1921- 22 and remembers being taken to see her when she was bedridden in Mount Pleasant, a memory shared by a few other people. Harold's father was also called Harold SANKEY, one of Willoughby SANKEY's eight sons. Harold was good enough to give me details of his parent's ten children, which is not transcribed, but is in the correspondence file.

Arthur Edward SANKEY (MS01) wrote on 26-Jan-1990, his grandfather Edward SANKEY originated in Church Gresley and then moved to Main Street, Blackfordby, where his father, William Edward SANKEY was born. Later the family moved to Old Row, Newfields, Moira where his grandfather died in the 1950s. Arthur was born at Peters Street, Albert Village on 21-Jun-1921. Arthur enclosed interesting information on the Hastingleigh Sankey Day.

Catherine Harkness (nee Weston) emailed me on 03-Jan-2016 with details of her grandfather, who died 10-Jun-2005: In 1942, Arthur Edward Sankey (21/06/1921 - 10/06/2005) married Catherine Mathieson Mackie (17/08/1920 - 20/02/2011) in Ormiston, East Lothian, Scotland. (As there was a war on, they married in uniform in my great-grandparent's living room. My grandfather had been posted to the Firth of Forth to guard the coastline from potential invasion.) They had two children, both born in Moira: Alexander Reginald Sankey (my uncle) b. 1946 Jessie Joy Leitch Sankey (my mother) b. 1952 Alexander Reginald Sankey married Christine Ann Weston in 1970 (I think). They had two children: Kevin Sankey in 1973 Phillip Sankey in 1975 Alex and Christine divorced in about 1993. Jessie J L Sankey married Raymond George Thomas Weston (b 1948) in Nov 1972 and had three children: Catherine Hazel Weston (me) Caroline Mary Weston Keiran Edward Weston (And if you've been eagle-eyed you'll have noticed the coincidence of names; Christine Weston and Raymond Weston are also brother and sister.)

Horace SANKEY was a name mentioned by many people, who thought he might know something of the family history. He is a Leicestershire County Councillor and very interested in local history. He wrote to say that his father was also called Horace SANKEY, born in 1906, and his grandfather was Hargreave SANKEY. Horace himself was born in Burton Road, Overseal and has four daughters.

His grandfather was married in Gresley Church to a HAYWOOD, and had seven children: George Sidney Laurence (bachelor) Nellie Haywood (one son deceased) John Lesley (bachelor) Horace (b. 22/May/1906) Amy Annie (deceased) Ivy Ethel (married name MEDDINGS no children) Phylis (married name JUKES two daughters)

His grandfather came from the HAYWOOD family that owned Haywood's pipe yard Spring Cottage works, which was from Lord Donnington's estate in the early 1800s (?).

I was able to visit Horace in April 1990 and had an interesting chat. He links into the picture as Hargreave SANKEY (his grandfather) was one of Willoughby SANKEY's eight sons. In his latest letter, after receiving the first newsletter, he suggests the large club room in his pub as a possible venue were I to organize a SANKEY get-together at some time.

SUDDEN DEATH OF COUNCIL STALWART Written by KATHERINE GIBSON Burton Mail Published: 06/02/2006

THE SUDDEN death of one of the North West Leicestershire’s best-known characters has shocked and saddened all who knew him.

Version 1.04 Page 107 THE SANKEY FAMILY OF CHURCH GRESLEY FROM 1837

Horace Sankey, a 'larger than life' man who never tired of putting the world to rights, died in his sleep overnight on Friday.

Tributes have today been paid to the 63-year-old, of Albert Village, whose most famous refrain was 'I only moved a mile in all me life'.

Mr Sankey, who lost 40 per cent of his lung capacity after years of toil at the coal face, served as a Labour councillor on Ashby Woulds Parish Council, North West Leicestershire District Council and Leicestershire County Council at the time when all the pits around South Derbyshire and North West Leicestershire closed.

The father-of-four, who was born in Burton Road, Overseal, in 1942, was a key activist in the trade union movement of the time and campaigned for the rightful treatment of those who had lost their health and livelihood.

A keen fisherman, he loved South Derbyshire and Ashby Woulds with a passion of someone who was 'truly local'.

John Legrys, secretary North West Leicestershire Constituency Labour Party, said: "Horace was a larger than life character, who was passionate about his community and fought hard with many officials to obtain funding for projects that would bring jobs and a better environment for the Ashby Woulds area. For these achievements Horace received a CBE [it was a BEM I believe].

"The changes from coalfield to a cleaner open countryside in the Ashby Woulds area will be a lasting memorial to Horace. He will be sadly missed and his passion for a better living space for all will be irreplaceable."

South Derbyshire District Council leader Barrie Whyman said the neighbouring district owed Mr Sankey a debt of gratitude for his work.

He said: "His death came as an enormous shock to me. I received the news with great sadness.

"He was the most belligerent person I have ever known, with a willingness to fight for causes in his community that is rarely seen.

"I have not known anyone more well informed, anyone more determined to serve the people. I have always held him in great regard."

June married Brian at Linton church. B: Mar 1937 June Peach Repton 7b 723 M: Dec 1962 June READ Repton 3a 801

June READ first wrote to me on 11-Jan-1990 on behalf of her mother Olive SANKEY. June has attended genealogy classes and is interested in the SANKEY family as well. She has a wealth of information, her father was John Willoughby SANKEY who died in 1983, and who was a grandson of Willoughby & Hannah SANKEY. June's grandfather Harold SANKEY, lived next door to my great grandfather Percy SANKEY at 183 Burton Road, Overseal.

June was the first to let me know that Willoughby and Hannah had eight sons, also that she had a photograph of the family, a copy of which she has kindly given me. June's cousin Jeffery PARKER has acquired the family bible, although she believes this bible originated with her grandfather Harold. Jeffery lives in her grandfathers house at the above address.

June included background information on Willoughby's eight sons, which I have not transcribed. The original is in my correspondence section.

June wrote again on 01-Feb-1990 correcting a few errors in her previous background notes, now noted on the original. I had asked June if she recognized any of the Church Gresley street names I had found on the census. Walters Houses is not known, Jack's in the Hole, or as it is referred to locally Jacks-o- th'Ole was on the border of Church Gresley and Albert Village, June's parents generation use the name, but she doesn't think the younger generation do any more.

June also sent me some background information on the eleven children of Harry & Jayne Ann SANKEY, this information being supplied by Norman SANKEY (MS15), one of the eleven. Again this has not been transcribed, but is in the correspondence section.

Version 1.04 Page 111 THE SANKEY FAMILY OF CHURCH GRESLEY FROM 1837

June READ wrote again on 20-Mar-1990, answering a query I had made that Jacks-o-th'Ole and Ducks-a- th'Ole were two different places. Her husband, who comes from Albert Village still uses the former name, the latter was a group of a few cottages standing in a field midway between Albert Village and Church Gresley, the cottages no longer exist. June is not sure of the sequence of Willoughby's sons that she has given me, they are in the sequence her father gave her. She also mentions John Willoughby SANKEY, the second son, was always called Jack, she remembers him buying a new push bike at the age of 80.

June included the photograph with this letter, it shows standing left to right: Harold SANKEY, Percy SANKEY, Frank SANKEY, Harry SANKEY, seated left to right: John Willoughby SANKEY, George Matthew Henry SANKEY, Willoughby SANKEY, Hannah TAYLOR, Hargreave SANKEY, Ernest SANKEY.

June thinks that George Vernon [George Matthew Henry] had a photography business. The mount is captioned "V. Sankey Photo. Church Gresley".

June next wrote on 06-11-1990 after I had sent her the first newsletter, and a copy of the sheet I was sending out to people who wanted a copy of the photograph. I had surmised that the photographer of the above portrait was Geo. V. SANKEY, who was known to have a photography business, and that the Geo. may have been cropped. However June tells me that on the original the V is inset and there doesn't appear to be any possibility of anything to the left of this. June is logging details of births and marriages of her cousins, and their children.

24/Jan/1991 A letter from June Read, she tells me that she has information on all her cousins, and is trying to piece it together. She also tells me that Clarice Sankey passed away in November 1990.

He seems interested, and has done some limited research into the name. He thinks that all the Sankeys in that part of Yorkshire are related, and are descended from his grandfather who was from Church Gresley. I will write and send him some details of the family when the shipping arrives.
