Hello, just wondering if anyone has information of Wadsley Village. My 2 x great grandfather was a master cutler employing men. His name was William Haywood. Is it possible to find out who was apprenticed to him? I would like to learn more about the village, things like the population and main industries. He [William] rented premises in Crab Tree Lane.
Cheers from down under Helen

I have a William Haywood in my family tree – 1812 to 1872. He’s my 3rd great grandfather and was married to Mary Phythian born 1813. One of their sons – also William – was born 1836. They had some connection with Wadsley. Are either of these related to your ancestors?

William Haywood was also my 3 x grandfather. His daughter Elizabeth was my 2 x grandmother. Elizabeth married John Sellers and after some years they moved to Sheffield. Their grandson, Thomas Sellers, moved to Western Australia after WW1.
I have never been able to find records for the birth or baptism of the first three children of William and Mary Phythian. I have been researching Wadsely and surrounds and slowly working through the extended families of the Haywood children.Shall I sendmyprivate email address so that we can correspond more about the families? I think we can do that through Carole at S&DFHS. Cheers Helen
