    Hi Brian
    I have moved your post which was on this thread https://www.british-genealogy.com/th...allerton-Forum and attached it here to your original thread as having a duplicate post can end up in confusion with members posting information you already have.

    Going back a family or two, and the question of whether the name was Benjamin or Bryan: the mistake may have been made because the writer got confused with a village SW of York called Askham Bryan. Certainly a transcriber of poor writing might make a guess of a name which was familiar. There is an agricultural college based there now. pwholt
