I have been trying to track down a relative of mine, Richard Ashworth Hoyle, of Bacup, Lancashire. Now, in the 1861 census there is a Richard A Hoyle of the appropriate age and origin, listed as being a pupil at Bank House, then under the direction of a Mr. Wm. Jackson and his wife. There was a governess there, four servants, and apparently a French master. The location is given as Morton. I did find a Bank House on an 185something map, but it appears to be in a rather lonely place just south of Thwaites - this does not appear to agree with the census form, which on the same page mentions Dunkirk House or Road - not Rise; alas, I don't have the census form in front of me.
I am sure it is too much to hope that something might have survived from this institution over all these years, but any information at all about Bank House would be most profoundly appreciated.
Regards,
Charles Rignall

I don't know anything about that school, but I do know that at the top of Banks Lane in Riddlesden as you head out of the village there is a house called Bank House next to a house called Dunkirk.
Much of what we know as Riddlesden used to be referred to as Morton Banks, (hence Banks Lane I guess), so that could at least be the building you are looking for?

Hello - I have just moved into a house which was specifically built for Richard Ashworth Hoyle in Bacup. I think there is a bit of confusion as there seems to be two Richard A Hoyles in the area at about the same time. This one is part of the Hoyle mill owners family - Isaac Hoyle being the most famous.
I am fascinated by the history - although not a Hoyle myself and would like to know if this is the same person you are looking to trace.

I have found them in census's but in 1901 Emma and her daughters are in Gloucestershire it says she is married but where is Richard??
No sign of either of them in 1911
The other Richard A Hoyle 1856 became a chemist and died in Lytham14/6/1932,his mum was the Mary Hoyle on 1871 census.
I haven't found who the parents of Richard A 1850 are as yet,or his death.
Parents of Isaac Hoyle 1831 were Joshua1796 born Spotland Lancs and Betty born 1796.
Just read something that Charles posted on another site,it states dad of richard was John and that his wife Emma and daughters arrived in US April 1902 on the ship Celtic
