Fear Mr.Hoyland,

Miss Rogéers has sent me your letter of
enquiry concerning oir remote ancesto"s . I cannot answer it
better than by sending you a copy of a booklet Which I printed
privately nearly two years ago . I am afraid I cannot tell you

much more for I put nearly all my goods in the shop-window .‘

I did however come across the name of Darfield pretty often in

the course of my research , it is not far from Peniston ; but

I did not trace any members of the family there . Your surname
like my own must be derived from a place name . There is more
than one Hoyland within the triangaé formed by Sheffield,
Barnsley and Peniston where the family makes its first appear-
ance .

There must have been a colony of Wordsworths at Edwin-
stowe in Sherwood Forest . Do yox know anything of them ? They
must have been established about,or even beforeilVOO . It is
not so far in distance from Peniston as one is apt to think..

If the little book interests you I hope you Will accept it .

Yours sincerely,

’mfi
