    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.

    Comments: Hi,

    I notice you have Stabler Smith (1800-1837) and his wife Betty (Chappelow) on your tree. I am descended from their son, also Stabler (1832-1896) who married Hannah Patrina Slawin.

    I have more info if you like or if you have anything more than what is in the visible tree I would be interested.

    Regards
    Geoff Higgins

    Notes: William Mitchell went from being an Ag Lab in 1841, living in
    Woodlesford, to being a brewer in 1851 living at Bentley Brewery Oulton.
    How did he manage this? Did he inherit the brewery? Who was living at
    Bentley Brewery Oulton in 1841 - would be worth looking at this census.
    From the birth of the children, it looks like they moved about 1844.


    Note: It might be worth looking for Mitchell's in 1841 in
    Astley/Swillington/Kippax

    Farm servant (indoor)

    Census record for 1881 confirms that William Mitchell died before 1881,
    indicating the his death may have occurred in 1873, as Peter
    Featherstone's notes suggest. As he seems to have been a wealthy farmer,
    so may have left a will.

    Death registers show the death of a William Mitchell of the right age but
    there is no entry in the probate calendars for 1873 or the 5 years after
    that. Mary Mitchell died in 1890. She left a will but it does not give
    much information. Sarah Mitchell went to live with her sister Eliza
    Pickersgill at the Old Castle Brewery in Pontefract.

    The book on pubs from the Pontefract musuem shows that the Pickersgills
    were at the Castle Brewery from 1878 - 88 and that Eliza Pickersgill was
    'in charge' for a while, followed by W Pickersgill and Co. Later, Eliza's
    son Earnest Edward Pickersgill seems to have taken over and to have been
    there until the 1940s. A posting to the WRY list did not elicit any
    responses from potential decendants. There is a list of Pickersgills
    still in Pontefract, on the electoral register on the other computer.
    Maybe a mailshot?
