Benjamin Normington Loryman

This is a bit of a strange one.

Huge memorial in Dewsbury Cemetery, but I can't correctly get him into the family tree.

Not exactly the most common name in these parts, or any other parts for that matter.

I used to trawl the burial records in Dewsbury Library and then cross reference the burial plots to the Cemetery. Loads of info if there's a memorial. All the info on this is either missing (obituaries) or vague.

In 1861 he is Ben Loryman married to Violet with their daughter Emma

 In 1871 he is Benjamin, with the same family

Never found him on the 1881 Census,
but in 1891 he had become Benjamin L Normington, still married to Violet

In 1901 he had become Benj Loryman, still married to Violet, living with his widowed daughter & her daughter also called Violet

Note to self - Drapery
