I think Marsden is in Huddersfield registration district ?

This might be your Wright Bentley if it is.

i am tryin to trace my dads side of the family, the Bentley's. what i know so far is my grandad george bentley lived in marsden, born in august 1900, he had 2 sons bryan and peter, who are both sadly deceased now, also george was one of around 10 to 12 other siblings, the names i have so far are. albert, arthur, fred, tom, william and wright. i do know there was a sister but kind find no information on her or the rest of them, have checked the 1901 census, thats how i got the names i did. if anyone can help, i would be very happy
