Last revision: 25/1/1999 (c) David Powell, http://roots-boots.net/ft/names.html The oldest current member of the Ingham line is William, born c. 1605. His origin is, as yet, uncertain. It is thought that he was a clerk and the son of a farmer from near "Pendle Hill", Wheatley, in the Gisburn area (Lancashire), moving to Arthington to serve at the manor there. While he is described as a "servant", the indications are that he was not a menial and his daughter, Ann, married the son of a local nobleman after she bore an illegitimate child to him - which indicates William was of some social standing. William's son, John, was a yeoman (a middle class farmer, owning his own land) before the age of 24, no mean achievement for a family newly arrived in the area. By the time of Richard, William's grandson, the Ingham family seems to have been doing better financially than the local Lord (of Arthington), having loaned the Lord the then considerable sum of 220 pounds. Samuel moved to Cookridge where he owned two farms, "Yate Farm" and "Dean Grange". Samuel's son, William, appears to have cashed in his inheritance while still young and moved to Otley, married his cousin-in-law and some time after 1781 established the "Barley Leaf" on Boroughgate (the main street of Otley), which stayed in the family for several generations. Of William's two surving sons, one became the town school teacher, the other, Robert, took over the family inn. By 1847 the family had moved to the "Weigh House", also on the Boroughgate - presumably the lease on the inn had expired. In the mid-to-late 1800's many of the Otley branch of the family died, signaling a reversal of family fortunes.[1] Ingham, as a surname, is almost exclusively found in Yorkshire and Lancashire counties in England. It has been speculated that the name originated in the 12th and 13th centuries from cattle drovers who travelled from Suffolk in the south to Lancashire and Yorkshire in the north for summer pasturage. Some of these drovers would no doubt have come from the village of Ingham in Suffolk, which was important for it's cattle back then, and upon settling down in the northern counties, would have been known as "John of Ingham" and the like - people from elsewhere were often known as "of" in that fashion.[1] Since more than a few drovers were probably from Ingham, it is no surprise that the Yorkshire (the situation is less clear in Lancashire, where there are fewer Ingham's) Ingham's exist in a number of apparently unrelated families. At least three main groups of Ingham's exist in Yorkshire, centered (or coming from) Halifax, Leeds and Adel. As far back as the earliest records, these Ingham "clans" have been distinct.[1] Otley is almost due north of Bradford in West Yorkshire, England, and lies on the south bank of the River Wharfe. Cookridge is near Adel, about half-way between Otley and Leeds. Arthington is about 5 miles east of Otley, also on the banks of the River Wharfe. Harewood is several miles further east along the river. Denton is near Otley and Hunslet is just south of Leeds. The Barley Sheaf, also known as the Wheat Sheaf, on Boroughgate is still standing today.[1] The following colourful description of Adel and Otley came from a local. "Adel has a beautiful small church with a Norman doorway - you have to book two years in advance if you want to get married there! Adel is a middle class suburb of Leeds. Otley is a typical Yorkshire Dales. The River Wharfe runs through the middle of it, and I've spent some great times on the river. It has dozens of great pubs and is a really friendly place. Well worth a visit. Before English licencing laws were relaxed, Otley was a great place to visit on Tuesdays and Fridays. These were market days, and an ancient charter allowed the pubs to remain open all day. A real novelty that made it very popular with students etc!"[2] Reference numbers are denoted by [..]'s and are listed at the end of each section (seperated by a line of *'s). Numbering begins anew with each section. Arthington lies in the Parish of Adel; baptisms, marriages and burials are given below as "Adel Parish", since they occured in the parish church, other events (births, deaths etc) are listed by the village, usually Arthington, they occured in, where known.

William Ingham, clerk & farmer,[1] born c.1605.[1] Was a juror in the Arthington Manorial court in 1660, 1661, 1662 & 1669.[1] He appeared before the court in 1661 and was ordered to "scoure his ditch betwixt Michael Illingworth halfe acrer and his R'fen hills before tenth June next" and fined 3s.4d.[1] Not long after in the same year he was again fined for a similar offence and ordered to "scoure his ditch betwixt his hill and Henery Pattison stone inge before lady day next and so upholde it from timt to time" and fined one shilling.[1] Juror's were selected from the chief tenants of the manor.[1] In 1662 William was mentioned in the Arthington Manorial Records: he gave evidence, under oath: "We present William Wood of Cowrigg and John Dawson of Breary for a blood and affray made upon William Rudcliffe, butler to the Lord of this Manor and upon William Ingham, another servant to the said Lord, given to us upon oath by the said William Ingham".[1] Both Wood and Dawson were found guilty and fined 10 shillings (a sizable sum back then).[1] Wood was the son of Francis Wood, "gentleman and Juror of the Manorial Court", and the family claimed to be entitled to "arms" (ie: nobility).[1] The incident appears to be been over William's daughter, Ann, who gave birth to a daughter in 1664 and married William Wood a month latter - presumably the child was William Wood's.[1] That the son of a claimed nobleman would consent to marry William's daughter indicates that William's status was fairly high in the manor court, also William took the lead in bringing Wood and Dawson to court.[1] In his latter life William was a farmer and a lintel date-stone, originally from Eccup, marked "W.I. 1668" is believed to have been William's.[1] The stone was latter moved to Manor Farm.[1] William died 1672/1673, Arthington, Yorkshire & buried 10/2/1672-1673, Adel Parish, Yorkshire.[1] Married Mary Cawdray, 9/2/1630-1631, St John the Baptist Church, Adel Parish, County Yorkshire, England.[1,3] Mary was born about 1610 and was buried 2/11/1676, Adel Parish, Yorkshire.[1] Children of William Ingham and Mary Cawdray: i.

James Tosh, architect & surveyor,[9] born 7/12/1850, Otley, Yorkshire.[2,3,8] Following the death of his mother Harriet (nee Ingham) in 1866, he presumably spent a considerable amount of time in Otley, probably with maternal Aunt Elizabeth Freeman and her husband James, retired builder/mason (he was with them in the 1861 census).[11] He trained as an architect, probably in Otley as Otley museum has records of James Tosh as a party in land transactions in 1874-5, also an entry in a trade directory for 1875 as an architect at Station Road, Otley.[11] In 1874 and 1875 (and possibly earlier), James was living with James and Elizabeth (nee Ingham, his aunt) Freeman, Cambridge Lane, Otley, Yorkshire where he was presumably studying to be an architect with Mr. Marshall.[11] After the death of James Freeman in 1875, James (Tosh) resided at Station Rd, Otley, Yorkshire (during 1875).[11] In late 1875 James returned to London (presumably his studies had been completed) where he married and fathered his child. In 1879 James was again residing at Otley, where, with Alfred Marshall, he designed and built the "North Parade Board School", on the corner of North Parade and Cattle Market St, Otley, which today is "All Saints School".[11] The school was opened 8/11/1879.[11] James emigrated to Sydney, Australia, with his wife and son, on board the Lusitania as "second saloon" passengers; departed London 19/5/1879, arrived Sydney 11/7/1879.[2,4,8] In Sydney, James & his family resided at 19 Argyle St, Parramatta, a house that James himself designed and built.[12] James was an architect with the NSW Government's Architect Office[8] and (earlier?) a partner in Tosh & Robinson, an architectural firm.[15] While with this firm, James designed several churches in the Randwick area in the 1880's and was the second prize winner in a competition to design the future suburb of Kensington in the late 1880s.[15] James also built churches in other areas including Leigh Memorial Church, Parramatta, the plans being completed 14/12/1883,[13] St Albans, Rooty Hill (destroyed by fire in 1942) and another at Penrith, NSW.[14] After his first wife's death, James then resided at 364 Alfred St, North Sydney.[2,8] James died at home, 7/1/1918,[2,8,17] of cancer of the oesophagus & exhaustion, of which he had suffered at least a year, and was buried 8/1/1918 in the Roman Catholic section, Rookwood Cemetery, Sydney,[8,19] section E, grave 2410.[19] James was previously presbyterian, his conversion to Catholicism presumably occured after his second marriage. James married 1st Clara Maria King, 27/12/1875 at St Johns, Hackney, London.[1,2,8,10] Clara was born 18/12/1842 in Kingsland or Shoreditch, London,[1-3] latter lived at Southgate, London,[2] died 19/12/1896 at 19 Argyle St, Parramatta, NSW,[1,2,5] and buried at Mays Hill Cemetery, Sydney.[5,6] Married 2nd Sarah Ann Atkinson (nee Burrows), 1902, Sydney, Australia.[8,16] Sarah was born 1862,[19] died 1940, Ashfield, Sydney,[18] and was buried 3/8/1940, Catholic Section, Rookwood Cemetery, in the same grave as James.[19] There is no record of Sarah's birth or first marriage in NSW, presumably she and her first husband emigrated to Australia.
