The index to Rosedale in the old North Riding of Yorkshire
has been compiled from transcription work I did as part of a research
degree I started some years ago. The work initially covered Rosedale
East and Rosedale West; but subsequently I enlarged the area of
study and thus included Hartoft and Cropton.
Some of the transcriptions have been made available in hard
copy form to the North Yorkshire County Record Office, Yorkshire
Archaelogical Society in Leeds and the Society of Genealogists
in London.
I should be very happy to
that you may have about the information given
here, but please note that I do not have additional information
at the present time. Any additional information will be added
as and when I have it.
