  • Notes 
    • Biography of Charles Gelder
      Charles Gelder was born about 1813, his baptism entry being missing from the Methodist registers. Like his father, he was a linen weaver. He married Sarah Pollard in 1836 at Darfield church & moved into a house in Laughton's Yard, where they spent the rest of their lives.They only had three children, unusual for those times, although Sarah appears to have had an illegitimate daughter, Mary, who was born a couple of years before she married. It is unclear who the father was. There is no baptism entry at Darfield church, but when she married, her father is stated to be "Charles Gelder (step-father)". He probably brought her up as his own child. His two eldest children were baptized at Darfield, but were no doubt baptized into the Methodist Church as well. His youngest son, John, was born in 1844 although his baptism entry has not been found. It is possible he was baptized in the Methodist New Connexion Chapel in Barnsley, but the registers for the years following 1837 have been lost or destroyed. Charles was obviously a staunch Methodist, like his parents, as his name appears on a poster advertising the laying of the foundation stone of the new chapel in 1866. Although Charles & Sarah only had two boys, both married & their offspring continued to live in Ardsley.
      In later years, Charles started working as a colliery labourer, work for hand loom weavers being harder to come by, as steam looms had been introduced, reducing the need for out workers. He died in Laughton's Yard in 1890, aged 77, five years later than Sarah.
