The Ancestry of
the Thirsk Line
The Thirsk Line
can trace directly back to 1512 from William Farndale to Nicholas Farndaile as follows:
William Farndale (FAR00665), 1894
– 1974
Matthew Farndale (FAR00383), 1850
- 1927
Martin Farndale (FAR00264), 1818
– 1862
George Farndale (FAR00215), 1789 – 1858
William Farndale (FAR00183), 1760 – 1846
John Farndale (FAR00143), 1724 – 1807
John Farndale, (FAR00116), 1680-1757
Nicholas Farndale, (FAR00082), 1634-1693
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.
