I’ve added a new piece to the Batley St. Mary’s one-place study. Parishioner Michael Howley, who died in America in 1919, is commemorated on Batley War Memorial, but not on the parish memorial or by the CWGC. This is his biography.

A Tale of Three Pigs, a Headstone and the Longest-Lived Parishioner? There is an amazing headstone in Batley cemetery, linked to the parish of St. Mary of the Angels. It is the first part of the inscription which really gives pause for thought. It reads: In Memory o…

It’s hard to imagine today, but yes the newspapers in this period are peppered with such horrible incidents. The post I’m publishing tomorrow about the same headstone for my #Batley St Mary’s #OnePlaceStudy is a total contrast & throws up a common research anomaly.

The Horrific Death of Little Mary Leach The death, on 19 February 1871 of a young girl named Mary Leech, is recorded on a family headstone in Batley cemetery. Aged four years and six months, she was the daughter of John and Mary Leech fo…

I published a new Batley St. Mary of the Angels one-place study post this evening linked to a headstone in Batley cemetery. It illustrates an every-day danger in this era. A contrasting post about the same headstone will be published tomorrow.

After mass at my one-place study parish of Batley St Mary of the Angels, I went to Batley cemetery to source a photo for a post I’m working on. Got the photo, but in the process I’ve come away with another blog post to research!

For our next Christmassy #OnePlaceStudy blog post we go back to 2017, when @janeroberts.bsky.social wrote about a wartime Christmas in Batley (& beyond), back in 1917. I’m counting it as a #OnePlaceStudy post even though Jane did not embark on a formal OPS of Batley St Mary of the Angels until 2020!

Some of this aerial view might look familiar perhaps. I've circled where the Norths had a house, retail shop and workshops. #batley
