Imeson Family

IMESON FAMILY.
The following information has been taken from Grewelthorpe Parish Registers, School & Census records and Memorial Inscriptions in Grewelthorpe & Masham Churchyards.
If you find the following helpful in your own research or if you have anything to add, I would love to hear from you.

Shirley Stothers in Canada would like information about the family of William Gaines who married Ann Imeson [b.1814].


Michael Peel writes, I have an interest in William Gaines who employed a relative George Metcalfe as blacksmith apprentice (1841 census) and took him to Canada in 1842 on the sailing ship Alfred.
