HARRISON -------- A genealogy of the HARRISON family of Yorkshire, England, from c.1560 to about 1800 and concentrating on my direct line.

I make no claim regarding the accuracy of this chart; the original sources are not free from error and a degree of guesswork is involved in genealogy. Last revision: 18/12/1999 (c) David Powell, http://roots-boots.net/ft/names.html The generation prior to Wilfryde is speculative, based mainly on the assumption that since only a few Harrison entries exist in the Adel Parish records prior to 1620, that they are all related. A grandchild of Wilfryde was named Dorothy, so there is a higher liklihood that she was his sister. No further trace of Thomas or William exist, it is presumed that they moved out of the parish, one perhaps to Otley, since there are several entries in the Adel PR's of ".. Harrison, of Otley parish". Otley is almost due north of Bradford in West Yorkshire, England, and lies on the south bank of the River Wharfe. Cookridge is near Adel, about half-way between Otley and Leeds. The remaining locations are in the vicinity of Adel. Cookridge, Arthington, Adel, Eccup all lie in the Adel (originally Addle) parish.

James Tosh, architect & surveyor,[9] born 7/12/1850, Otley, Yorkshire.[2,3,8] Following the death of his mother Harriet (nee Ingham) in 1866, he presumably spent a considerable amount of time in Otley, probably with maternal Aunt Elizabeth Freeman and her husband James, retired builder/mason (he was with them in the 1861 census).[11] He trained as an architect, probably in Otley as Otley museum has records of James Tosh as a party in land transactions in 1874-5, also an entry in a trade directory for 1875 as an architect at Station Road, Otley.[11] In 1874 and 1875 (and possibly earlier), James was living with James and Elizabeth (nee Ingham, his aunt) Freeman, Cambridge Lane, Otley, Yorkshire where he was presumably studying to be an architect with Mr. Marshall.[11] After the death of James Freeman in 1875, James (Tosh) resided at Station Rd, Otley, Yorkshire (during 1875).[11] In late 1875 James returned to London (presumably his studies had been completed) where he married and fathered his child. In 1879 James was again residing at Otley, where, with Alfred Marshall, he designed and built the "North Parade Board School", on the corner of North Parade and Cattle Market St, Otley, which today is "All Saints School".[11] The school was opened 8/11/1879.[11] James emigrated to Sydney, Australia, with his wife and son, on board the Lusitania as "second saloon" passengers; departed London 19/5/1879, arrived Sydney 11/7/1879.[2,4,8] In Sydney, James & his family resided at 19 Argyle St, Parramatta, a house that James himself designed and built.[12] James was an architect with the NSW Government's Architect Office[8] and (earlier?) a partner in Tosh & Robinson, an architectural firm.[15] While with this firm, James designed several churches in the Randwick area in the 1880's and was the second prize winner in a competition to design the future suburb of Kensington in the late 1880s.[15] James also built churches in other areas including Leigh Memorial Church, Parramatta, the plans being completed 14/12/1883,[13] St Albans, Rooty Hill (destroyed by fire in 1942) and another at Penrith, NSW.[14] After his first wife's death, James then resided at 364 Alfred St, North Sydney.[2,8] James died at home, 7/1/1918,[2,8,17] of cancer of the oesophagus & exhaustion, of which he had suffered at least a year, and was buried 8/1/1918 in the Roman Catholic section, Rookwood Cemetery, Sydney,[8,19] section E, grave 2410.[19] James was previously presbyterian, his conversion to Catholicism presumably occured after his second marriage. James married 1st Clara Maria King, 27/12/1875 at St Johns, Hackney, London.[1,2,8,10] Clara was born 18/12/1842 in Kingsland or Shoreditch, London,[1-3] latter lived at Southgate, London,[2] died 19/12/1896 at 19 Argyle St, Parramatta, NSW,[1,2,5] and buried at Mays Hill Cemetery, Sydney.[5,6] Married 2nd Sarah Ann Atkinson (nee Burrows), 1902, Sydney, Australia.[8,16] Sarah was born 1862,[19] died 1940, Ashfield, Sydney,[18] and was buried 3/8/1940, Catholic Section, Rookwood Cemetery, in the same grave as James.[19] There is no record of Sarah's birth or first marriage in NSW, presumably she and her first husband emigrated to Australia.
