This website contains photos, documents, maps relating to my great-great-grandparents Wright - Stanworth - Bancroft - Blackburn - Pighills/Pickles - Shackleton - Marshall - Wilson and other ancestors, all of whom lived in the West Riding: A detailed family tree of these and ~50 other surnames can be found at the WRIGHT Family Tree In the 19th century, many of my Wright's lived in the village of Haworth. During the Brontë era, the Wright's lived and worked as blacksmiths, cartwrights and grocers on the steep, cobbled, Main St. of Haworth.
