    Inscription: 'In affectionate remembrance of the late Henry Atkinson, of Waterloo Main Colliery who died September 22nd, 1862, aged 55 years. Also of Elizabeth wife of the above who died July 4th 1873, aged 63 years. Thy will be done. Also Friend Atkinson, son of the above, who died October 18th 1916, aged 65 years.'

  • Notes 
    • Conflicting date of birth given as 1 Sep 1801 in IGI films numbered 455416 and 184803. Its very unlikely that there were two Henrys in the same family. His gravestone inscription bears out his birth as being in 1807. The Garforth parish register for baptisms shows the correct year of birth as 1807. A Henry does not occur in this for 1801.
    • (Medical):Informant: Elizabeth Atkinson present at death, Pontefract Lane, Leeds.
