Name	Age	Occupation	Birthplace
BEARPARK Henry	65	Farmer	Yks
BEARPARK Hannah	70		Yks

Henry was baptized 12 April 1774, the son of Henry Bearpark, a hosier, and Eleanor nee Metcalfe. He married Hannah Peacock (the daughter of Edmund Peacock and Isabel Robinson) on 8 March 1808. Hannah had been baptized in Redmire 25 December 1770. They had had three children, none of which are left at home in 1841:

Ann: baptized 27 May 1810
Isabella: baptized 22 September 1812
Henry: baptized 26 November 1813, buried 1 July 1827

1851 Census

By 1851, Henry is a widower: his wife Hannah was buried in Redmire on 8 February 1848. This is the last time we see Henry as well, as he is buried in Redmire 19 July 1853, and no more Bearparks appear in Redmire census returns.

Name	Relationship	Age	Occupation	Birthplace
BEARPARK Henry	Head, Widower	76	Retired Farmer	Redmire
HIRD Thomas	Son in Law, Married	37	Leadminer	Reeth Parish

HIRD Henry	Grandson	7	Scholar	Reeth Parish

Living with Henry now is his daughter Isabella's new family, recently moved back to Redmire from Reeth. The young Hannah Bearpark is perhaps the Hannah Eleanor Bearparke baptized 23 December 1838 at Manchester Cathedral, daughter of Richard Bearparke and Isabella.
