Introduction

The Fretwell/Coldwell connection came about with the marriage of Ann Fretwell (1710-1746), daughter of Matthew Fret(ch)well of Cawthorne and Mary Aude of Darton. Ann married Joseph Coldwell in 1735. Both were recorded as being of the parish of Cawthorne.

The Coldwell (and variant spelling) name is well represented in the Cawthorne Parish Registers, and the family entries are included here. For those with Coldwell interests there is a listing the names of people who married into the family, as far as can be gleaned from the Parish Registers.

From the records, I have made a tentative 'reconstruction' of the family groupings, including an, as yet unconfirmed, identification of the offspring of Ann and Joseph Coldwell.  Those few for whom no clear 'home' can be assigned are also listed.
