GENEALOGICAL GLEANINGS IN GREAT BRITAIN.

BY THOMAS ALLEN GLENN.

EMLEY. A record preserved by a descendant of

William Emley of West Jersey, states that he was born

at Torworth, 1648. Torworth Grange is quite a large farm in the parish of Blyth, Notts. The family assumed the surname de Emley from a parish of that name in the

Lower Division of the Wapentake of Agbrigg, West

Riding of York, and 29 miles from Blyth. There remains

the record of a Fine, final concord dated "from the day of St. Martin in fifteen days," 42 Hen. III. (1257), Paul, son of Roger de Emeley, pltf., and Robert, son of Thomas

de Flincham and Lucy his wife deforciants, touching certain lands and tenements in Plumtre, some three miles

from the hamlet of Torworth, and a little over two miles

from Blyth. Paul, who thus acquired lands near Tor

worth, was the second or third son of Roger, and the

ancestor of the Emleys of that place and neighborhood. Thomas Emley of Torworth Grange, born about the

year 1580, was buried at Blyth Church, 2 Nov., 1634.

By his wife Margery (buried 5 Dec, 1651), he had (a) Alice, bapt. 29 Sept., 1606; m. 7 May, 1651, John Browne,

Emley the elder was burd. at Blyth, 16 Jan., 1611.

Rufford, where the family had held property, after 1672. He had (a) William, bapt. at Blyth, 15 Sept., 1648. He

joined the Society of Friends and removed to Mansfield, 14 miles N. W. of Nottingham, and 12 miles from Blyth, from whence he removed to West Jersey, where he was

a Commissioner, and High Sheriff of the County of

Burlington "from Assaprut to Oldman's Creek," 25 Mch., 1681 (Mt. Bk. Supreme Ct. W. J., Clement Mss., I., fo. 73).

HUDSON. Will of William Hudson of the City of

York, dwelling near Walmgate Bar, tanner. Dated 23

June, 1705. Proved at York, 20 May, 1713 (York Reg.). The testator mentions his housing and farm in Rydnes formerly purchased of John Prince by his (testator's)

wife Jane Waite (she being then unmarried), together with two closes (fields) in Foggerly Lordship; his housing and farm in Akaster Malvis in the County of the City of York; his dwellinghouse, garth, and other buildings near Walmgate Bar; his arable lands in Gate fulforth

fields, being 7 acres, also two closes near Boultham Bar, a portion of which the testator bequeaths to his son

TAYLOR. Robert Taylor of Clatterwich, Little

Leigh, parish of Great Budworth, Chester, removed to

Chester Co., Pennsylvania, 1682. Clatterwich is a farm

in the township of Little Leigh. The writer did not enter the house, which is interesting, when Leigh was visited, owing to an outbreak of small-pox in the hamlet, and the

customary official restriction.

Robert Taylor of Clatterwich, Little Leigh, parish of Great Budworth, born circa 1480, married Joan ??,

and was father of Thomas Taylor of Clatterwich, buried

at Great Budworth Church, 20 May, 1562, who was

leaving issue, Robert Taylor, bapt. at Great Budworth

Church, 15 Dec, 1633, who removed to Pennsylvania as

CROASDALE. Thomas Croasdale of New Hay, Yorkshire, had a deed for 1000 acres of land in Pennsyl vania, 500 acres of which were surveyed to him in Bucks

County. The Croasdale family of New Hay, or New

haye, Waddington, were wealthy yeomen, and their

connection with Waddington commences at a very early

period. Thomas, son of Edward Croasdale was baptd. at

Waddington, 20 May, 1644, and married (Friends Records), May, 1664, Agnes, daughter of William Hath ornwaite of Wyerside, Lancashire. He was at the time

probably 21, or 22 years of age, and was great-grandson of Henry Croasdale of Newhaie in the County of York, husbandman. The latter's will, dated 28 April, 1595, was proved at York, 10 Sept., 1595, by his son Robert and widow Helene. The testator mentions his houses,
