The Ancestry of the Great Ayton 2 Line

The Great Ayton 2 Line can trace directly back to 1512 from Joseph Farndale to Nicholas Farndaile as follows:

Joseph Farndale (FAR00228), 1795 - 1877

The Kilton 1 Line

                                                  

Samuel Farndale (FAR00149), 1735 – 1797

 

William Farndale (FAR00130), 1708 - 1789

 

John Farndale, (FAR00116), 1680-1757

 

The Liverton 2 Line

 

Nicholas Farndale, (FAR00082), 1634-1693

 

The Kirkleatham Skelton Line

 

Georgins Ffarndayle, (FAR00073), 1602-1693

 

George Ffarndayle, (FAR00067), 1570-1606

 

William Farndale, (FAR00063), 1539-?

 

Nicholas Farndaile (FAR00059), 1512-1572

 

You can then follow details of Farndale in the medieval period who were almost certainly earlier ancestors at Volume 1 of the Farndale directory.

 

You can then explore Yorkshire prehistory to give you a further perspective of the distant ancestry of the people of Farndale.
