Overview

Excerpt from Kirkby Overblow and District: Being a Record of the History, Antiquities, Folk-Lore, and Old Customs of the Ancient Parish of Kirkby Overblow in the West Riding of Yorkshire, With Brief Notices of Adjacent Places My thanks are especially due to the present indefatigable rector of the parish, the Rev. Charles Handcock, who has been unremitting in his attentions on behalf of this project. He has, I fear at much personal inconvenience, conducted me about the parish, assisted in the transcription of the parish documents, looked over most of the proofs, and in many other ways manifested a generous interest in the progress of the work, that I cannot but ever gratefully remember. To Mr. Hugh Bateson, Clerk to the Parish Council, I am also greatly indebted for much useful literary help and for his particular efforts in bringing this work to the notice of the inhabitants of the district, whose patronage and support are heartily appreciated.
