The Herald and genealogist . ykess one reads of in the Lives of I remember we spoke of this when I had the pleasure ofseeing you at Doncaster. Very likely I might be qviite wrong, as Ihave no notes of any authority, nor any very definite recollection ofwhat I may have heard. John and Dennis had 5 married sisters;most of whom I knew. Dennis was the father of Mr. Godfrey Sykes,who became Solicitor to the Stamp Office in London. I knew alsoanother family of the name at Sheffield, at the close of the last century,not related to the Sykess just named. The family consisted of two sisters,one of whom married James Bramhall, and was mother of John SykesBramhall, who died some twenty years ago. The other sister nevermarried. I remember hearing her speak of her descent as if there wassomething notable about it, but 1 never heard any particulars, so far asI recollect, and do not think there was much in it. Of the other Sykess in the Directory I know nothing. ********** * Yours very truly, Joseph Huntek. VOL.
