Lowcocks Farm, Waddington/West Bradford, Yorkshire

Hello Lowcock folks,

I am looking for some history on the Lowcocks Farm, north of Waddington/West Bradford, Yorkshire. According to the 1851 census my g-g grandfather, William Porter, was a "Farmer of 100 acres (Lawcocks, Yorkshire [I assume that should be Lowcocks]), Township of Waddington." The Yorkshire Ordenance map shows a "Porter Barn" and "Porter Brook" in the vacinity of Lowcocks Farm. Google shows the barn still standing. Anyway, if anyone has a bit of history on the farm or can direct me to someone who might know, I would appreciate it very much.

Thank you.

Linda
