Archive Search

Search these online archive catalogues for details of documents relating to Malhamdale, the parish of Kirkby Malham and its townships.
Note that two of the townships in particular can cause trouble with searches, even if you try to limit your search to Yorkshire records. Early spellings make it difficult to distinguish between Calton and Carleton in Craven (near Skipton) or the several other Yorkshire Carltons, and similarly Coniston Cold is easily confused with entries for Conistone with Kilnsey (in Wharfedale) and other Yorkshire Conistons.
