Do you know a Robert Acaster b Brotherton abt 1840? Robert may have moved to Goole as his son Joseph was born there and he married Frances Casandra Leak. Frnces Cassandra Leak was my gg grandfather's sister and I have some details of her family. As Robert was born in Brotherton I assume he is related to Thomas, William and Hannah Maria, indeed all these names occur elsewhere in my tree.

Regards

Phil

I am on the road - will look to see what I have when I get back - you may want to look at a website that is called something like the Brotherton Organization - it lists the Acaster family information. Get back to you later - Catherine

I found this in an old post I made from 2009 - hope it helps - Catherine

For individuals researching Acasters in the Brotherton Yorkshire area, the Brotherton Organization: www.brotherton.org.uk/html/acaster.html is a good source. Also, Brian Townsley keeps a Townsley family history web page that includes an index with Acasters from the Brotherton area: homepages.tesco.net/~townsleyb/index.htm. Good hunting.

Thanks for the quick reply, I am sure the Acaster family in My tree is the one from Brotherton (whic I understand is near Pontifract). I have had a look at the website and there is no easy match but I will contact the supervisor to see if he can help find links. Let me know if there is any link to your tree.
