New Barn Farm, Alderwasley

New Barn Farm lies about half a mile SW of Alderwasley (OS ref: SK 327-527). The photograph was taken before 1905, and probably shows the SANDARS family who were living there in the 1901 Census. The age of the people in the photo appears to agree with that shown in the Census. The haystacks seem to be magnificent structures to modern eyes.

The SANDARS family can be traced in the Census by these links:
1901, 1891, 1881, 1871, 1861, 1851 and 1841

John's father Thomas took over Hankins farm from the WILMOT family around 1865, and John was raised there. New Barn farm may have been built about 1875, and Thomas (John's elder brother) took it over. Thomas jnr then moved to Bury Hill farm and John Sandar was running New Barn farm from 1885-1901. A SANDERS family tree is given below.
