I have a relation who was born in binley hall, Staffordshire but I cant find reference to this hall anywhere !
Google is showing me bingley hall which is not a house but a venue for live bands by the looks of it !
Her name was Susannah Tennant born 1859 binley hall, Staffordshire ?

Have you found her on the 1861 census

If you google Binley Wolstanton this comes up

Maybe a place that is no longer there?

The info came from one of her decendants who has the birth cert.
|
|
I cant seem to find the info on Elijah & the pit accident ?
|
|
did you click on the link that Chris gave?
|
|
hmmmmmmmmm ......
no, that link doesn't seem to lead to the correct information :-(

I think this is also your Elijah .............. it's from the newspapers on FMP
A miner, Elijah Tennant name, was yesterday fined and c sts the Wakefield magistrates for rescuing his furcitoire from the bailiffs, who bad seized .....
2 September 1879 - Sheffield Daily Telegraph -
He was fined £5 and costs. The bailiffs had seized the furniture under a Court Order.
where's Swinton??
A miner named Elijah Tennant, of Nash row, Swinton, met with a severe accident While at his work yesterday, in Manvers Main Colliery. A fall of coal
5 April 1882 - Sheffield Independent - Sheffield,
The image says there was a fall of coal, and he got a fractured leg and other severe contusions.
I could also see the report that Chris referred to.
You could search for the abstracts for free on this site, and then buy credits as needed

Manvers Main Colliery was a coal mine, sunk on land belonging to the Earl Manvers and was situated on the northern edge of the town of Wath-upon-Dearne, between that town and Mexborough, in the Dearne Valley, South Yorkshire, England.
Swinton is just south of Wath upon Dearne and both are around 10 miles from Hemsworth where the family show in the 1881 posted above

Not sure where Elijah was 1861/71...(in case article related to area!)
