The following photograph was found in Whitby Library. To maintain legibility I have transcribed the hand-written text originally at the top and bottom of the picture, verbatim, thus:

Faces from the past

Preserved on this page are the descendants of William Hoggarth, carpenter and shipwright of Littlebeck near Whitby, who was born in 1789. You can also click on the button at the foot of the page for a descendent tree which contains a lot more detail, but here's what his Grandson's family were up to in 1881 :-

Although John (born 1835) is noted as a Sailmaker, the census lists him as a 'Jet worker'. Jet became very popular after the death of Queen Victoria's husband Albert, and John may simply have jumped on the bandwagon.
