Background

[edit]

Pearson came from an agricultural family which lived in Pannal, West Riding of Yorkshire, for several generations, and were buried there. His paternal grandfather was Matthew Pearson, who lived to the age of 112.[nb 1][1][2] His wife was Phoebe Pearson née Raper.[nb 2][3]

Pearson's father was Thomas Pearson, of Lunds Green, Pannal, North Riding of Yorkshire. He was an agricultural labourer, then a farmer.[nb 3][4][5] On 17 May 1801 at St Peter's Church (now Leeds Minster) he married Elizabeth Robinson, daughter of farmer John Robinson of Beckwith.[nb 4][1][6] At their marriage they were both illiterate, signing the certificate with a mark.[7] They had three children.[1][8][9] After his first wife died, he married Elizabeth Harrison at St Robert's, Pannal, on 16 March 1836.[nb 5] Thomas Pearson was still illiterate at this time, and so was his wife, both signing their names with an X.[10]

Samuel Pearson, the third child of his father's first wife, was born on 1 January 1808, at Bramley, Leeds.[nb 6][9] He was registered in the Baptist Church, Bramley, in 1808,[9] then baptised in the Anglican St Robert's Church, Pannal, in 1815.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page). His siblings were Hannah Pearson,[nb 7][8] and agricultural labourer Thomas Pearson.[nb 8][1][4]

On 29 December 1838 at St Robert's, Pannal, Pearson married Ellen or Helen Darnbrough, daughter of labourer Joseph Darnbrough.[nb 9] They were both illiterate at the time of their marriage, having signed the certificate with a cross.[11][12] They had eleven children: Mary,[nb 10][11][13] Joseph,[nb 11][13] Matilda,[nb 12][13] Samuel,[nb 13][13][14] Ellen,[nb 14][13][14] Esther,[nb 15][13][14] Sarah Elizabeth,[nb 16][14] William Darnbrough,[nb 17][14][15] Jane Hannah,[nb 18][14][15] Eliza Ann,[16][14][15] and Pamela.[nb 19][14][17] During their married life, Pearson and his wife lived in the same house, near Pannal Hall, in Pannal.[11][15][18] Their three sons, Joseph, Samuel and William Darnbrough, were stonemasons.[14][17]

Pearson was buried in the churchyard of St Robert's, Pannal, on 16 December 1894.[19]
