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.
