Hello Trish,
I know your message has been posted for a while, but I was very interested to see you are descended from the first Ellerker of Kirkbymoorside. I am particularly interested in any information about Robert Ellerker (farmer), who had a daughter Mary Rachel Ellerker (born around 1847). From my recent research it seems she was my Great Grandmother. Sadly she died at the young age of 31yrs in London. I would be grateful for any help?
