A short review by Elaine Pickard:
"Names & More Names"......
The CD "Harrogate Records 1560-1812" by Walter Kaye
(1923) that Colin Hinson has released, is a much needed addition
to the supply of records for both the family historian and local
history buff.
Though Harrogate is believed to be a "NEW" town it
is amazing to read that there is mention of it as far back as
1332.
The extracts from the PR's of both Christ Church, Harrogate
(1758) & Knaresborough (1560) will thrill family historians.
The Pannal Parish Extracts give many names of presumed local people
which will be of interest to Pannal researchers.
