I think it might be a badly written Stainbourn - not 100% sure. But there was a Stainburn chapelry within the parish of Kirkby Overblow.Retired professional researcher, and ex- deputy registrar, now based in Worcestershire. Happy to give any help or advice I can ( especially on matters of civil registration) - contact via PM or my website www.chalfontresearch.co.uk

hi susan,
yes i understand the couple had residency for at least 3 weeks. like you though, i am having trouble finding records prior to the 1720's in the west yorks collection though. there used to be quite a lot of trees on ancestry that had the lineage i am researching, but i wanted to start from scratch to make sure it was right. i think it is major, there is a burial in kirkby overblow for a major hindle in the 1740's. but i have not come across 'major' as a christian name before.

I did notice a Robert Dibb was having children christened in Kirkby Overblow about the same time 'your' Eleazar was born, did 'your' Eleazar have a son named Robert? BTW, I've not come across the name Eleazar before, a Google search tells me Eleazar was a nephew of Moses, so I've learned something from your query, and thank you for that. Just goes to show how the forum teaches us all so much; and helping and sharing is a positive experience.Last edited by Guest; 03-02-13, 03:46.

Hmm! Kyle, I'm pondering over this record. I know it says 'dau of' but it also says father's name Hellen!!!, so somethings not right! Could Hellen be Eleazar??? Mind you if so, how to prove it? Are you near an LDS Centre? If you are it would be worth you ordering the LDS film to peruse.
parent Hellen Dibb, Elizth.
name Hellen Dibb
gender Female
baptism/christening date13 Nov 1708
baptism/christening place KIRKBY OVERBLOW,YORK,ENGLAND
father's name Hellen Dibb
mother's name Elizth.

another issue, is ancestry has screwed up parishes and dates. betty dibb's christening for example was in 1742 at kirkby overblow, but ancestry has it in 1792. so that's hard to work with.
and i notice some images for harewood are actually for horsforth and vice versa.
i have emailed them about it but they havn't done anything. and these issues were there from day one of their uploading.

eleazar's children were: betty 1742, eleazar 1731, robert 1738, sarah 1736-1736, william 1733 and mary 1734. there is also a bernard in kirkby overblow as well at the same time, and i can't find anything on him before children either. i do wonder if they were brothers from somewhere else, maybe north yorks.

Hi Kyle,
I agree with Susan re the christian names Major and Squire being popular in West Yorkshire. I used to work with a chap with the christian name Major and I have a relative with christian name Squire in my family tree.
