This webpage comprises the genealogical family tree of the Whitby 5 Line of George Farndale, the butcher of Brotton (who died aged 29), and his immediate family.

John Farndale was born in Kilton and moved to Danby and then to Newholm, Whitby. This is a very large line of Farndales associated with the Whitby area, and particularly the village of Egton, 15km west of Whitby, Whitby itself, Loftus and Eskdaleside. This large family includes Joseph Farndale, the well respected Chief Constable of Birmingham; Rev Dr William Edward Farndale, a leading Methodist; and George Farndale who was killed in action in 1917 at the Battle of Arras. From this line there also emerged the Loftus 3 Line, the Wakefield 1 Line, the William Line, the Nottingham 1 Line and the Holderness Line.

The family tree is colour coded to show the flow of relationships between individuals. You can also follow the hyperlinks in brown text to link directly to other related family lines and the hyperlink in blue text to reach the webpage of each individual, where you can read about their lives in more detail.
