dunsbyowl1867 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 A listing of Sheffield and district people from an 1841 Election. Thanks Richard that's great. I claim one of my g-g-g-g-grandfathers : Hallam Upper Township Angelo Andrews Bright Street Sheffield What a fab name that must have been in 1840's Sheffield! Sorry what are the 4 column head on the right I can't make them out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HughW Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 From the Sheffield Local Register: 12 Jul 1841 Declaration.of the result of the Poll for the West Riding; Wortley, 13,165; Denison, 12,780; Morpeth, 12,031: Milton, 12,080 ; number of electors, 30,998. Detailed statistics suggest that Wortley and Denison lost in Sheffield but were obviously more popular in the rest of the West Riding. I think they were the Tories but I am not sure. edit Yes, Wortley and Denison were Tories, Morpeth and Milton were Whigs. Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
