Notes:
Notes from information provided by Joan Tonks, nee Senior.
Ethel Amelia's mother died in childbirth when my mother was 8 years old. I don't know if the baby survived. She left school at the age of 13 and went into domestic service. I don't know where she went or how old she was at the time. I know at some time she was employed by a Dr Dixon, somewhere in Headingley, Leeds. She met Thomas William Senior when she was working as a maid, for the manager of Barclays Bank, Market Place, Pontefract. TW Senior and Sons builders were doing some alterations of the premises and my father was doing the plastering.
During the 1st World War, she worked at a munitions factory in Leeds. At this time she lived in lodgings in Featherstone and this is where she and my father lived when he came out of the army.
Her brothers were called Nowell and Ned (short for Edward). They were both miners at Featherstone and played cornets in the colliery silver band. They entered competitions as part of the band and because they were such good players they were offered jobs at a woollen mill at Huddersfield, so they could play for them. Uncle Nowell lived at Clayton West, near Huddersfield, and died there sometime in the 1960s, I think. I know that he married twice in his lifetime, and there was a daughter to his first wife, but we was a Down's syndrome child. There was another daughter called Mildred.
I think Uncle Ned moved to Doncaster. I remember a cousin Jessie coming to see my mother. She was Mrs Flewitt, 163 Coppice Road, Highfields Doncaster but she died about 15 years ago. I know she had a daughter but I don't know her name. I have found an address in an old diary of my mother's and I think it may be hers, but I am not sure. Mrs Brumble, 27 Green Lane, Carcroft, Doncaster.

Obituary Feb 1924.
Mr T W Senior
Death and Funeral of a Much Esteemed Resident
It is with deep regret that we report the death, which occurred on
Saturday night, of Mr Thomas Wood Senior, plasterer, of Walkergate,
Pontefract.
Deceased, who was 60 years of age, represented the fifth generation of a
Leeds family of plasterers, but when he was 27 he forsook Leeds in
favour of Pontefract and has carried on a flourishing business with
headquarters in Walkergate ever since.
His quiet, unassuming manner, and his genial nature caused him to be
held in high esteem everywhere he went, and he was never known to have a
cross or unsympathetic word for anyone.
During the time he was at Leeds he was for nine or ten years secretary
of a branch of the Ancient Order of Oddfellows.
In politics he was a Liberal, but on account of persistent ill health he
never took up much active work for the cause. Since he came to
Pontefarct he has been a regular attender at All Saints Church.
He never really complained of any trouble until about a fortnight before
Christmas, and after he had been attended by Dr Osmond for a while, Dr
Braithwaite of Leeds was called in and he advised an operation. The was
performed during January, but the patient's condition did not improve,
and he passed away as stated.
He leaves a widow -- who is well known in Liberal circles -- and five
sons and four daughters.
The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon at the Pontefract
cemetery, the Rev A G Shipley (vicar of All Saints) officiating.
The chief mourners were:-- The widow, Mr T W Senior, Mr & Mrs John
Senior, Mr and Mrs W Maw, Misses Carrie, Louie and Nelly Senior, and
Messrs Edward, Arthur and Richard Senior, sons, daughters, etc; Mrs
Witty (Garforth), and Mrs Bold; Mr & Mrs Melemby, Mrs Hall, Mr E Senior,
Mr H Senior and Mr J Senior (all of Leeds), brothers, sisters, etc; Mr
Mitchell (Castleford), Mrs Smith (Wyke), Mr Hamer (Brighouse) and Mr and
Mrs Mitchell (Pontefract), brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, etc; and Mrs
Brown, Mr and Mrs G Stewart and Mr J Blackburn.
Amongst the many others present were a number of members of the Master
Builders Association -- Messrs G Ward, jun, H Walker, T Lodge, J Brown,
W Horner, H Taylor, A Taylor, W Barber, P Woodcock, R W Abbott, C L
Jackson, J Shaw, S Harrison, H Burton, J Clarke, J W Pearson, G Barff
and G Stewart (all of Pontefract), and J H Stanhope and A Link
(Knottingley).
There were wreaths and floral tributes from:-- the Widow; The Children
at Home; Lilian and John, Willie and Ethel; Mr and Mrs W Maw; Mr
Mitchell (Castleford); Mr and Mrs Mitchell (Pontefract); Mr and Mrs
Ruddlesden (Pontefract); Mr and Mrs G Stewart; Mr and Mrs F Tree
(Ferrybridge); Mr Hamer; the Pontefract Master Builders' Association; Mr
and Mrs T Mitchell; Mrs Smith and family (Bradford); and "A few Liberal
Friends". Mr W Pease of Old Church had charge of the funeral
arrangements.
