Hartley Families
Here are a few bits that are relevant to the Blacko Hartleys. I would be interested to know if this family of John Hartley at Admergill spring from Bernard Hartley of Blacko and Laund. A Bernard H was one of the first copyholders of land in Blacko, he certainly held land there in 1507. I have quite a bit on his family but have not included them here.
This has been assembled from a number of different files.

James Robinson stated 80 states that in 1523 the tenants of Barrowford exchanged lands with tenants of Blacko. Lawrence Hartley of Barrowford exchanged with James Hartley of Blacko and that Blacko in Barrowford joins another parcel called Blacko in Admergill and that a ditch divides the said grounds.
Also the deposition of John Hartley, aged 76, of Cotes in Craven is taken. He states that his own father, Bernard Hartley was
one of the first to take vaccarries from the King's Commissioners by Court Roll (this would be in1507).

1557 William Lister of York allowed Richard Aicroyde of Briercliffe (this would be Foulds House) to use land in Colne rented by John Hartley. Richard Aicroyde then purchased the land but had to allow John Hartley the use of it for the term of his life.
1555 Henry Bannester of Parkhill and James Hartley of Blacko fined 12d each for keeping an unruly tenant in John Robinson alias Bewse who with his dogs drove away his neighbour's beasts.

Richard Hartley was called Little Hodge.
John Hartley was called Hoydye.
1540 John Hartley and Bernard Hartley complain against Robert Blakey in a plea of trespass for open fences between Juddefield and the Long Rodes upon a dyke called “Le Blacke Dyke”. Jury award damages. This is the land above Blacko Tower farm and Admergill Pasture farm where it runs up to the ancient ditch/dyke known as the Black Dyke.

1527 The jury declare that a messuage and other buildings at 22s 2.5d pa rent in Roughlee reverted to the King upon the death of Henry Hartley and that John Hartley is his son and heir and 16 years of age or more and that Lawrence Hargreaves is his uncle to the said John and agrees to be his guardian until he attains maturity. Margery Hartley (widow of Henry) forbade fine for her dower and Henry Mitton forbade fine until the said John Hartley should fulfil the intention of the said will of his father.

1524 Richard Tattersall plaintiff aginst John Hartley of Admergill in a plea of trespass for the occupation of certain parcel of land lying in Wittawbothe (Whitehough) against Robert Lee (I think this Le was R.Lee, Knight, Commissioner of the Royal Forest in 1507). Plaintiff wins 10s damages.
