Kipling Family.

KIPLING FAMILY.
It would seem as if there has only been one family in Grewelthorpe with the name Kipling.
According to the 1891 census and Grewelthorpe school records and research done by descendant Peter Kipling, we can piece together a bit of the life of this famly. Jane Kipling moved to Grewelthorpe from Long Newton probably in 1889 / 1890 after the death of her husband William. He died in October 1889 in Long Newton and was buried there.
We are not sure why Jane moved to Grewelthorpe with her 4 children and her brother Henry Herring, but she became the Publican at the Royal Oak Inn in Grewelthorpe.
According to school records Henry, Annie & Thomas Kipling started school in February 1890. Robert the youngest child started school in September 1891. The school register records that the family moved away to Ripon in 1899.
Jane died in Ripon in 1900 and she is buried at Long Newton
The 1901 census shows Annie & Thomas in Ripon. Robert & Harry [Henry] have gone back to Long Newton. Harry was a painter.
Annie had an illegitimate son who was brought up by a Ripon family that had a haulage business. They worked with loads to and from Theakstons Brewery in Masham just after WW1.
Peter Kipling would like to hear from anyone with more information about the Kipling family.
