Joseph Hugill's Children - John Thomas Hugill

Joseph Hugill D.D. was the Rector of St Lawrence, Darlaston from 1840 to 1842.

Mary Steatham was baptised at St. Lawrence, Darlaston, Staffs, on Sunday the 14th February 1841, by the Rector Joseph Hugill D.D.

Mary Statham/Steatham (1840-), was the mother of Charles Steatham, the founder of this unique branch of the Steatham Family tree.

I have been contacted by Leanne Emmett who is a 3rd Great Grand Daughter of Joseph Hugill.

What follows is a fascinating glimpse into the life of his son John Thomas.

I am grateful to Leanne for the information she has provided on Joseph Hugill, this has enabled me to create this page.

Note - I have recently undertaken a Steatham Visit to Grantham to research the churches that Joseph Hugill was Curate at before he came to St Lawrence, Darlaston.

I would read this page first and then Click here to read about the visit.

The visit unearthed lots more information about Joseph Hugill, some of it has been reproduced here but not all of it, so to see the whole story of Joseph Hugill the visit page must be read in conjunction with this one.



John Thomas Hugill (1833-).

It was in 1834 that Joseph Hugill made the living at St Peter's, Earls Heaton, Yorkshire, of a Perpetual Curacy.

The church was erected in 1825-27, at a cost of £5,301, by the Parliamentary Commissioners, the architect was Thomas Taylor; it is a cruciform structure in the later English style, with a tower and spire, and contains 600 sittings, of which 250 are free, and a gallery for the accommodation of 300 children.

The living is a perpetual curacy, endowed with £200 by the Ripon Diocesan Society, and in the patronage of the Vicar of Dewsbury; net income, £164. There are 4 acres of glebe, and a good glebe-house.

The church no longer stands and it was demolished in 1971, due to subsidence.

All that now remains are the gravestones.

Reported in the Morning Post (London) Monday the 16th June 1834.

"UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE" (From the Oxford journal).

The Rev. Joseph Hugill, of St. John's College, in this University, was last week presented to the Incumbency of Earls Eaton, in the parish of Dewsbury, Yorkshire, by the Rev. John Buckworth, Vicar of Dewsbury.


We next find John Thomas Hugill in the 1841 census aged 8, at the home of an Eliza Tweedy, aged 55, at Great Gonerby, together with his sisters, and he is then lost to us.

Note - John and his sisters, are down as boarders!
