Emma, I think that must be the place. They went from Cawood, to Newsom green then to Leeds. Guess the guy from Otterington is not my man then............DARN thanks for your help

There is both a North and South Otterington in North Yorkshire - not far from Northallerton. There is a Newsham less than a mile from South Otterington but no idea if there is a Newsham Green. There is a Newsam Green which falls under the Parish of Whitkirk about 4 miles East of Leeds in West Yorkshire. (which is nowhere near Northallerton) Hope this is some help, Emma.
