Eeles family research

[Debbie Hudson]

My great, great grandparents were Thomas Eeles and Margaret Rutter. They married at Grinton Church in 1871 and had several children: Francis, Mary, John Ralph, Margaret Hannah, Anthony, Annie I, Dinah, Thomas, Sarah R, Ann L.
They lived at Bents in Gunnerside until they moved between the 1881 and 1891 census. They came to live in Keighley to work in the mills.
Thomas had a brother Ralph who also came to Keighley and also 2 other brothers Francis and Anthony. Their parents were Francis Eeles and Mary Milner.
Is anyone else researching the Eeles family?

Hi I am writing this on behalf of my father Brian Eeles.
It appears that we may have a common ancestor. Your Great great grandfather Thomas Eeles is I believe the brother of George Eeles who is my great grandfather (Brian Eeles's Grandfather).
George Eeles had two children, Mary and Francis Thomas born 1887 who was my grandfather (Brian's father).
We know that George had brothers that moved to the Keighley area.
My father and my aunt have both been tracing their family tree and would like to hear from you.
