1824
Elias Farndale
was born in or about 1824 in Gilling (see marriage,
census and death record below). His marriage certificate evidences that
he was the son of Elias and Jane (nee Foster) Farndale (FAR00224).
1841
Elisha Farndale
was 17, a male servant, at North Dalton, Driffield, between Malton and Hull (1841 Census).
1846
Elisha Farndale, bachelor, aged 22, labourer of Thearne, son of Elisha Farndale (FAR00224), married Mary Ann Carling, spinster
aged 24 also of Thearne, in service, daughter of
Christopher Carling, brewer, at the Church of St John and St Martin, Beverley,
north of Hull on 26 November 1846. William Hildyard was the Curate. The
witnesses were John Gray and Elizabeth Holmes (her mark). Signed by Elisha, Ann
made her mark (Marriage Certificate).
Thearne is a hamlet in
the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, in
the civil parish of Woodmansey.
It is situated approximately 3.5 miles (5.6 km) south-east of Beverley to
the east of the A1174 road from Hull to Beverley. It also lies just to the
west of the River Hull. The name 'Thearne' is a
reference to the Thorn tree and was recorded as early as the late
13th century. A ferry east of Thearne
across the River Hull dates to at least the
12th century. In the 15th century a chapel dedicated to
the Blessed Virgin was established. The chapel
was confiscated during Henry VIII's suppression, and is no longer in existence.
Flooding of the Beverley-Hull road led to orders for an improvement of the
area's drainage in the 17th century. The land around Thearne
was enclosed by
and act of 1788. The Beverley and Barmston Drain was
constructed through the area in around 1800, but does not actively drain Thearne. A windmill for corn, Thearne
Windmill, south-west of the village on the Beverley-Hull road was constructed
sometime around 1800. An earlier mill existed in the 17th century,
the new mill had steam power installed in 1856.
In
1821 the population of Thearne was 90; by around
1833 the township had a population of 67. In the 1850s Thearne
consisted of less than 10 main buildings, including Thearne
Hall (built c. 1823). A Primitive Methodist chapel was built in
1867. Ferry Road led east to the River Hull where
the ferry ('Waghen ferry' later 'Wawne
Ferry') crossed to the Anchor Inn (later the Windham Arms), and to the road
to Wawne.
