Note: REGISTERS REGISTERS The set of unattached trees originating in Grinton, Yorkshire. We have high hopes that one day it will find its rightful place in our main tree. This is an attempt to document the entire Grinton lineage, as far as the registers will allow. The Grinton Parish registers are riddled with gaps, some as large as 12 years, and only started in 1640. There were also a ridiculous number of James Closes around in the 1600's, all having children at the same time. The chances of getting them all dead right is virtually zero. The trees here represent the start of the dangling lines and, as the saying goes, all the bits are here - just not necessarily in the right order. |

Burial
|
Note: BURIALS BURIALS There are a host of burials documented in the Grinton Parish registers. Unfortunately, unless it's blindingly obvious due to a unique name, without an age at the time of death it's virtually impossible to tell which person it is. So, the burials are documented here until they find their real home: 10 January 1641 George Close 01 February 1645 Elizabeth Close of Grinton 14 June 1649 Richard Close of Harkerside 26 November 1650 Margaret daughter of Elizabeth Close of Isles. Not clear whether Elizabeth is a widowed wife, or whether Margaret is illegitimate. 03 October 1651 Simond Close 19 October 1653 Elizabeth wife of William Close of Whitaside. There is a William Close around but he appears to have had a son in 1657, which is after this one died. 23 April 1685 Elizabeth wife of James Close of Feetholme. Possible wife of James Close (1656) of Harkerside. 07 October 1685 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 05 September 1688 Trinian Close of Grinton November 1689 Elizabeth daughter of James Close. Possibly Elizabeth (1689). 27 March 1690 Thomas Close of Kearton 10 September 1698 Mary Close of Whitaside 06 October 1698 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 01 November 1698 Elizabeth Close of Kearton. This may be the wife of John Close of Kearton whose daughter Elizabeth was baptised on the same date. 08 July 1703 Ralph Close of Whitaside 01 July 1705 Marmaduke Close of Gunnerside 29 September 1711 Elizabeth wife of Thomas Close of Ellerton 29 December 1719 Ralph Close of Whitaside 05 March 1720 Margaret Close of Grinton 19 June 1728 Margaret Close of Grinton 13 December 1728 James Close of Whitaside 11 March 1729 John Close of Whitaside 25 April 1729 James Close of Whitaside 20 April 1730 William Close of Smarbar Hall 13 May 1732 Ann wife of Miles Close of Harkerside 15 March 1733 Miles Close of Harkerside 10 April 1733 Ann Close of Whitaside 19 September 1735 Mary Close of Smarbar Hall 30 January 1737 James Close of Whitaside October 1740 Dorothy Close of Whitaside October 1740 Phillis Close of Whitaside 05 July 1742 Margaret Close of Grinton 10 August 1744 Dorothy Close of Gunnerside 26 January 1752 John Close of Whitaside 05 April 1754 William Close of Grinton 16 April 1757 Dorothy Close of Grinton 21 June 1757 Dorothy Close of Grinton 09 April 1758 Dorothy Close of Whitaside 14 February 1763 James Close of Grinton 02 June 1764 James Close of Whitaside 09 April 1765 Margaret Close of Whitaside 17 April 1768 Ann Close of Whitaside 27 November 1781 Mary daughter of James Close of Reeth Lane 14 August 1783 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 28 December 1783 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 26 September 1789 Edman Close of Low Row 19 June 1795 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 28 May 1799 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 12 April 1802 Dorothy Close of Low Whitaside 12 February 1804 James son of Ann Close, widow of Reeth 15 April 1806 Margaret Close of Reeth, drowned in a pool of water October 1806 Thomas Close of Reeth, mason 23 February 1809 Mary wife of William Close of Richmond 25 May 1812 Betty Close of Richmond, formerly of Reeth 16 August 1815 Elizabeth Close of Reeth, aged 68 - probably a wife 15 June 1817 Isabella Close of Reeth, aged 73 - probably a wife 01 March 1818 Thomas Close of Reeth, infant 13 January 1819 Margaret Close of Reeth, aged 43 - probably a wife 07 April 1829 John Close of Healaugh, infant 24 October 1829 Mary widow of Thomas Close of Reeth, aged 77 08 August 1837 Elizabeth widow of John Close of Reeth, aged 59 01 October 1849 John Close of Arkendale, aged 70 27 February 1861 Barbara Close of Grinton, aged 10 months 24 November 1863 Ann Close of Reeth Union House, aged 78 - probably a wife 14 November 1867 George Close of Grinton, aged 20 |

REGISTERS The set of unattached trees originating in Grinton, Yorkshire. We have high hopes that one day it will find its rightful place in our main tree. This is an attempt to document the entire Grinton lineage, as far as the registers will allow. The Grinton Parish registers are riddled with gaps, some as large as 12 years, and only started in 1640. There were also a ridiculous number of James Closes around in the 1600's, all having children at the same time. The chances of getting them all dead right is virtually zero. The trees here represent the start of the dangling lines and, as the saying goes, all the bits are here - just not necessarily in the right order. |

Burial |
BURIALS There are a host of burials documented in the Grinton Parish registers. Unfortunately, unless it's blindingly obvious due to a unique name, without an age at the time of death it's virtually impossible to tell which person it is. So, the burials are documented here until they find their real home: 10 January 1641 George Close 01 February 1645 Elizabeth Close of Grinton 14 June 1649 Richard Close of Harkerside 26 November 1650 Margaret daughter of Elizabeth Close of Isles. Not clear whether Elizabeth is a widowed wife, or whether Margaret is illegitimate. 03 October 1651 Simond Close 19 October 1653 Elizabeth wife of William Close of Whitaside. There is a William Close around but he appears to have had a son in 1657, which is after this one died. 23 April 1685 Elizabeth wife of James Close of Feetholme. Possible wife of James Close (1656) of Harkerside. 07 October 1685 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 05 September 1688 Trinian Close of Grinton November 1689 Elizabeth daughter of James Close. Possibly Elizabeth (1689). 27 March 1690 Thomas Close of Kearton 10 September 1698 Mary Close of Whitaside 06 October 1698 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 01 November 1698 Elizabeth Close of Kearton. This may be the wife of John Close of Kearton whose daughter Elizabeth was baptised on the same date. 08 July 1703 Ralph Close of Whitaside 01 July 1705 Marmaduke Close of Gunnerside 29 September 1711 Elizabeth wife of Thomas Close of Ellerton 29 December 1719 Ralph Close of Whitaside 05 March 1720 Margaret Close of Grinton 19 June 1728 Margaret Close of Grinton 13 December 1728 James Close of Whitaside 11 March 1729 John Close of Whitaside 25 April 1729 James Close of Whitaside 20 April 1730 William Close of Smarbar Hall 13 May 1732 Ann wife of Miles Close of Harkerside 15 March 1733 Miles Close of Harkerside 10 April 1733 Ann Close of Whitaside 19 September 1735 Mary Close of Smarbar Hall 30 January 1737 James Close of Whitaside October 1740 Dorothy Close of Whitaside October 1740 Phillis Close of Whitaside 05 July 1742 Margaret Close of Grinton 10 August 1744 Dorothy Close of Gunnerside 26 January 1752 John Close of Whitaside 05 April 1754 William Close of Grinton 16 April 1757 Dorothy Close of Grinton 21 June 1757 Dorothy Close of Grinton 09 April 1758 Dorothy Close of Whitaside 14 February 1763 James Close of Grinton 02 June 1764 James Close of Whitaside 09 April 1765 Margaret Close of Whitaside 17 April 1768 Ann Close of Whitaside 27 November 1781 Mary daughter of James Close of Reeth Lane 14 August 1783 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 28 December 1783 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 26 September 1789 Edman Close of Low Row 19 June 1795 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 28 May 1799 Elizabeth Close of Whitaside 12 April 1802 Dorothy Close of Low Whitaside 12 February 1804 James son of Ann Close, widow of Reeth 15 April 1806 Margaret Close of Reeth, drowned in a pool of water October 1806 Thomas Close of Reeth, mason 23 February 1809 Mary wife of William Close of Richmond 25 May 1812 Betty Close of Richmond, formerly of Reeth 16 August 1815 Elizabeth Close of Reeth, aged 68 - probably a wife 15 June 1817 Isabella Close of Reeth, aged 73 - probably a wife 01 March 1818 Thomas Close of Reeth, infant 13 January 1819 Margaret Close of Reeth, aged 43 - probably a wife 07 April 1829 John Close of Healaugh, infant 24 October 1829 Mary widow of Thomas Close of Reeth, aged 77 08 August 1837 Elizabeth widow of John Close of Reeth, aged 59 01 October 1849 John Close of Arkendale, aged 70 27 February 1861 Barbara Close of Grinton, aged 10 months 24 November 1863 Ann Close of Reeth Union House, aged 78 - probably a wife 14 November 1867 George Close of Grinton, aged 20 |
