This information was derived initially from page 235 of "Ilkley:Ancient and Modern" by Dr Collyer & J H Turner published in 1885. One must be aware that therein lies a major error in that the Thomas RUSHFORTH (1712-1771) is incorrect, there evidently having been two named Thomas, one of them certainly having been my ancestor Thomas RISHWORTH (1704-1771). Another presentation of this lineage is given in Families of Wharfedale, by Nic Wilson.
