John Northend was born about 1532 in the township of North Bierley in the parish of Bradford, West Riding of Yorkshire, England where there are no Bradford Baptisms, Marriages and Burials register records until 1596. He married Mary Pravemer in 1556 in Rowley. He died between 31 May 1602 and 15 September 1604 in Weeton (Little Weighton), East Riding of Yorkshire, England and was buried in St Peter's Churchyard, Rowley, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. We think John died about 1603 as his will was signed 31 May 1602 and proved 15 September 1604. He is listed as John Northend senior of Weeton, Rowley, yeoman, and the next will in the list is his son John. [1]
His assumed first daughter may have married William Northropp of Manningham. Their child is listed as Anne Northropp.
His assumed second daughter may have married John Illingworth of Allerton. Their children are listed as Richard, Robert, Margrett, Issabell, Elizabeth and Susanna.
His assumed third daughter may have married John Laycocke of Whitecoate, who deceased before 31 May 1602. Their children are listed as John, Francis, Richard and Issabell.
His only son is called John Northend.
All of them are mentioned in the will of John Northend, senior of Weeton, parish of Rowley, yeoman.[2]
