I’m looking for info on Abraham Bentley born 1800, I think in Wilsden, Yorkshire. Died Bradford 1851. They moved to Bradford, Yorkshire about the time of the industrial revolution and Abraham became the town crier (beadle, bellman) he is mentioned in book: Pen and Pencil Pictures of Old Bradford, By William Scruton,
And lived in the Market Street area of Bradford.

1851 Census Abraham had died but his wife and family still lived in Market Street.
