In the language of the day, she is said to be the illegitimate daughter of Mary Wood, a single woman, but her father’s name is listed as William Farndale. So presumably William Farndale was not married to Mary Wood. Her father was probably William Farndale (FAR00286) before William’s marriage on 24 July 1847 to Bessy Langdale.

 

1864

 

It could have been Maria, who got into trouble for a fight over the use of the pump with a neighbour on 25 January 1864. Sproatley is east of Hull and is not too far south from Wetwang. She seems the most likely person this relates to.

 

Hull Advertiser, 30 January 1864: Sproatley. PETTY SESSIONS. On the 25th instant (before the Rev C J Wall and T Ward Esq) – Maria Farndale was summoned by Emma Rawsey for assault. Both parties reside at Sutton. Complainant and defendant are neighbours, and both use one pump. The alleged assault arose through both parties, who happened to meet at the pump, having their first turn. Fine and costs, 9s 6d.

 

Wetwang is 20km SE of Malton, near Driffield, 15km SWW of Bridlington.

 

1877

 

There is no further record of Maria Jane Farndale, but Maria Jane Wood married Thomas Botham at Driffield in 1877 (York PR).
