? married Amelia Bagshaw (1800-?) at Bristall, Yorkshire in 1822. They are known to have had one child, Jonathan (1841-?). Jonathan went on to marry Kate Balmforth (1842-1905) at St. John the Baptist Church in Halifax in 1862. Jonathan and Kate had a large family of six children – four boys and two girls. At the time of the 1911 census three of the boys – Jonathan (1868-1933), James (1882-1919) and Charles William (1876-1934) – are all shown as single and living together with Charles William shown as the head of the household. Only Jonathan of the three seems to have married subsequently. He married Elizabeth E. Burnside (1889-1923) in Halifax in 1916, but there is no known issue. Jonathan died in Halifax in 1933 at around the age of 65 years, while Elizabeth had also died earlier in Halifax in 1923 at the comparatively young age of 34 years. Hence, this is a Soothill grouping which seems to have faded away during this period.
