Upperthong and Netherthong [edit] Parish registersThe area if interest (Holme, Cartworth, Austonley) has been served by St David's church, Holmbridge since 1840. Prior to that, Parish entries were in Kirkburton Parish registers for Cartworth and Almondbury Parish registers for Holme and Austonley. Holmfirth Church is also significant because it was a chapel of ease for both Kirkburton and Almondbury Churches at times. Upperthong may also have served for Austonley residents
* Almondbury Parish Church historically served Lingards, Meltham, Linthwaite, South Crossland, Honley, Netherthong, Upperthong, Farnley Tyas as well As Holme and Austonley (and of course, Almondbury) In practice refer to here before local church came into operation (e.g Holmbridge in 1840) * Kirkburton Parish Church historically served Hepworth, Fulstone, Thurstonland, Shepley, Shelley, Denby, Cumberworth and Cumberworth Half as well as Cartworth (and of course, Kirkburton). * Holmfirth, Holy Trinity Church often held 'chapel of ease' status for both Almondbury and Kirkburton so would have registered events for both churches, particularly for the residents of Holme Valley
