My Waterfield line goes back to Richard Waterfield born in Thringstone, Leics and married to Hannah Stenson in 1761 at Belton in Leics.
This branch largely stayed in Leicestershire/Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire (with some movement into North Wales) until the 1900's and were involved in quarrying and mining trades.
My great father moved to Leeds, Yorkshire in 1905 and had bothers in Co Durham,Lancashire and elsewhere there is possibly a link, but I would need more information.
