Yorkshire

This line is one of the oldest known. Mention of it is made in the book by the book published by Rev. WM Ball Wright, M.A., T.C.D., in 1889 entitled The Ussher Memoirs.

FAMILY TREE build 14 Jan 2000. This is a skeleton tree of the people as laid out in the book "The Ussher Memoirs". There is no other supporting evidence for the connection between the people, but there are some records in IGI for some of the names, although not all have been checked. The tree goes as far as Robert and Hezekiah from which the Ushers Of Massachusetts are descended are from this family.

The GEDCOM file is also being uploaded to the WorldConnect Project where it can also be searched.

This branch has one of the first known Usher arms (see Armory).

Ann Usher

My ancestor, John WOOD (16??-1737) married Ann USHER (16??-abt 1758) of Barnby upon Dun Parish, Yorkshire. This is a few miles north of Doncaster, from Bentley go northeast past Arksey. John WOOD and Ann USHER had a son name John. I don't have any other information about Ann except her son, John Wood (abt 1708-1773). It appears they May have moved to Arksey Parish from Barnby.

Florence "Flo" CHEESLEY or Mabel Elizabeth CHEESLEY married Charles Walter "Charlie" USHER and they had two boys:

My father used to write to him and at that time around 1949 the address he wrote to was: 52 Derby Street, Cheetham, Manchester 8 and also: 48 Heath Street, Cheetham, Manchester 8.
