Queens Street Chapel: Independent
The focus of this web page is the history and genealogy my ancestors,
Charles Lewis Land, his son, John Land, their ancestors and descendants.
Six children of Charles Lewis Land and his wife, Anne Dinsdell,
were baptized in "Queens
Street Chapel", Leeds between 1818 and 1833: John 1818, Elizabeth 1820, Elizabeth 1822,
James Dunford 1826, Charles 1826 and Emma 1833.
See
Charles Lewis Land for details
LDS has records for the chapel from 1756 to 1837 on mircofilm #828139 items 5-6.
In fact, "Queens Street chapel" is kind of a misnomer.
In 1756 this Independent congregation was under the leadership
of the Rev. John Edwards at the White Chapel on Hunslet Lane, (near the coal staith and
south of South Market according to several old sources).
At his death in 1785 the Rev. Edwards was succeeded by the Rev. Edward Parsons.
In 1791 the Rev. Parsons moved his congregation from the White Chapel
to the newly built Salem Chapel.
However, there appears to have been a congregation that remained at
the White chapel.
In 1804 the Rev. William Eccles was the minister at the White Chapel, Hunslet Lane Leeds.
He remained
there at least ten years.
In 1819 the Rev. Thomas Scales became the pastor of the congregation which was still
meeting at the White chapel on Hunslet lane.
In 1825 the congregation moved to a new location on Queen Street.
In 1850 Rev. Scales resigned as minister to this congregation.
John and the two Elizabeths were baptized in the old White chapel. James, Charles and Emma were baptized
in the chapel on Queen Street.
Queen Street Chapel as listed in the Leeds Directories 1830, 1834 and 1837:
- The 1830 Leeds Directory listed Queens Street Chapel as
having:
- Sunday services at 10:30AM and 6:00PM and a prayer meeting at
3:00PM
- Monday prayer meeting at 7:00PM
- Thursday sermon at 7:00PM.
- By 1834 the 3:00PM Sunday prayer meeting had been dropped.
- White's 1837 Directory says:
"Queen street Chapel is a large and neat building, erected in 1824, and
containing 1,200 sittings. The Rev. Thomas Scales is its minister."
Note: In general the Independents seemed to have more meeting times that the other
denominations.
In 1790 there was one Independent chapel in Leeds which could sit about 600.
In 1791 the Salem chapel was build. By 1841 there were five congregations including
Queen-street chapel. (Source - The Evangelical magazine and missionary chronicle, Vol 19, 1841)
Queen Street Independent chapel was opened in 1825.
Queen Street Chapel, Park Place, Leeds. -
This place of worship, built by the church and congregation,
hitherto assembling at the White Chapel, Hunslet Lane, under the
ministry of Mr. Scales, was opened on Wednesday, April 27, 1825.
In the morning, Mr. James, of Birmingham, preached from
Rev. i. 20., and ii. 1. Mr. James Parsons, of York, in the

Jackson, of Green Hammerton; Dr. Boothroyd, of Huddersfield; Mr. Hasloch,
of Kentish Town; Mr. Pool, of Kipping; Mr. Valentine Ward, Wesleyan Minister;
and Mr. Acworth, of Leeds, Baptist Minister. On the following Lord's-day,
sermons were preached in the new chapel by Mr. Parsons, senior, Mr. Scales,
and Mr. Hamilton, The collections exceeded, £400. The building includes,
under one roof, the chapel, which seats 1250 persons, with an upper gallery
for 400 children, two lofty school rooms, capable of accommodating 700 children,
two vestries, and a large committee-room. A large piece of ground, intended
for a cemetery, surrounds the chapel.

In 1843 an anti-slavery meeting was held at the chapel and in 1850 the Rev. Scales resigned.
1843 July 24th
A public
meeting of the Leeds anti-slavery society was held this evening in
Queen-street chapel. The Rev. J. W. C. Pennington, a gentleman of colour
from the United States of America, attended and addressed the meeting.
...........
1850 January 2nd
The Rev. T. Scales, minister of Queen-street chapel, Leeds, having resigned his
pastorship in consequence of declining health, the members of the
church and congregation presented him with a purse of one hundred sovereigns,
accompanied by a testimonial, expressive of their gratitude for his past
services, and the deep interest felt in his future welfare. Mr. Scales had
been minister thirty years, and oommenced first in the old white chapel.

Other Lands in Queens Street Chapel
Besides the family of
Charles Lewis Land and his wife, Anne Dinsdell there were two other
families with the surname Land who had children baptized in the Queens Street
Chapel.
- Philomon Land, son of Philomon Land and Hannah, born November 12, 1802 and baptized December 1802.
(Queen Street Chapel Records)
- Thomas Land and Anne Shirt
- Ann, of Thomas Land and Ann of Water Lane, born on March 23, 1817 and
baptized on August 24, 1817, Queen Street
Independent, Leeds (Queen Street Chapel Records)
- John Shirt Land, the son of Thomas Land and Ann of Water Lane,
born April 11, 1822 and baptized on July 21, 1822 Queen Street Independent, Leeds
(Queens Street Chapel Records)
Philemon Land and Charles Land had more in common than both being members of the
White Chapel/Queen Street congregation.
Like Charles Land, Philemon Land was born in Wakefield and moved to Leeds.
Their fathers were both named John. There the similarities end. They were NOT brothers.
See
John Land, Wakefield
Dinsdale in Queens Street Chapel
John Dinsdale, the brother of Ann Dinsdall Land, had James Thomas Dinsdale, of John Dinsdale and Elizabeth, baptized on April 16, 1826 in the Queens Street Chapel (IGI, source 0826139).
See Dinsdale
Philomon Land and His Family
Philomon Land, born to John Land and Sarah Meyers in 1765 in Wakefield, lived in Weston and
moved to Leeds.
John Land and Sarah Myers of Wakefield and Weston
Marriage of John Land and Sarah Myers
John Land married Sarah Myers in Wakefield All Saints on December 12, 1759. Sarah Myers:
Sarah Meyers, the daughter of Joseph Meyers and Ruth Ellis Meyers, was baptized in
All Saints in 1736. The other children of Joseph and Ruth Meyers were: Joseph, Mercy, David,
James, Christopher, Ruth, Philomon, and Isaac. Sarah's mother, Ruth Meyers,
baptized in All Saints in 1707, was the daughter of Philemon Ellis and Dorothy Crabtree.
Children of John Land and Sarah Meyers
There were 17 baptisms for the children of "John Land" in Wakefield All Saints
between 1761 and 1774. Unfortunately, only the father's name was listed.
Occasionaly a place designation was made. None-the-less, it is possible to determine several
of the children of John Land and Sarah Meyers.
Subsequent records show that John Land and Sarah Myers moved to the parish
of Weston no later than 1775 when their son James was baptized.
When John Land and Sarah Meyers moved from Wakefield to Weston all of their
children were young enough to have made the move with them.
The Land records in Weston are limited to the family of John Land and Sarah Meyers, their
children and grandchildren. Four of the children of John Land and
Sarah Meyers baptized in All Saints can be established, based on the subsequent
records in Weston. They are: Joseph, Ruth, Mercy, and Sarah.
Since there were two Joseph and two Sarahs baptized in WAS during the period of time
Sarah Meyers was having her children it is not possible to determine which
Sarah and which Joseph were the children of Sarah Meyer.
Another child can be determined based on the unusual name, Philomon, a name
used in Sarah Meyer's family for several generations.
Based on the Weston and Philomon connections
Sarah Meyers Land was the mother of:
- Joseph Land (1763-) and May Young

A memoire by Martha Wedmore nee Clapham 1882:
We are of Clapham descent and cousins of Hannah Clapham, Philemon's mother.
I have just been going through some documents which included a "memoire of
our family" by a cousin Martha Wedmore nee Clapham. She writes:
1882 Cousin Land died at Leamington 20 June. First cousin to my parents
(They were also first cousins to each other. SW) He had married a german
lady, and after the death of their only child Frederika . . . they separated
by mutual arrangement, she staying in Dresden, he returning to England . . .
. great friend of my father, . . . came to stay often, . . smoked cigars,
only the best . . . every year same unbrella, and probably same clothes . .
. . quaint figure, grey hair cut like a frenchman and a pointed beard. He
left £125,554 to be divided amongst his numerous cousins, and his only debt
was for one box of cigars!
Sue Walther from Norfolk, November 2006

Notes:
- Since it is likely that they would haved
named a son after his father, it is possible that Sarah Meyer was also the mother
of one of three Johns
baptized in the parish (one in 1762 and two in 1770).
- It is also possible that she was the mother of Christopher baptized in 1772. Christopher
was another unusual name and and was the name of one of Sarah's brothers.
Christopher, the son of John Land, was buried on April 23, 1773.
- If Philomon Land, whose son was baptized in the Queens Street Chapel in Leeds in 1802, was
a relative of Charles Lewis Land, whose children were baptized in the Queens Street Chapel
between 1818 and 1833, they were, at best, cousins of some degree.

Thomas Land at Queen Street chapel.
As noted above Thomas Land and Anne Shirt had two children baptized in
Queen Street Chapel: Ann Land in 1817 and John Shirt Land 1822, contemporaneously with
Charles Lewis Land and Anne Dinsale who also had children baptized in the Queen Street Chapel.
I do not know if it is significant.
One problem is that there were at least two Thomas Lands in Leeds at the time.
The following is an attempt to sort out the various Thomas Lands.
Thomas Lands
At least two THOMAS LANDS born circa 1780 were having children in
Leeds in the early 1800s.
A number of Land born in Wakefield moved to Leeds in the early 1800s.
There are several
baptisms, two in Wakefield the one in Leeds, that might be relevant.
Possible Births:
- ★Thomas of Thomas Land 22 November 1799 Wakefield All Saints
- Thomas son of John Land baptized 6, January 1783 Leeds,
Leeds Parish Indexes. "Mabgate" (Leeds St Peter's PR)
Notes:
- Other children born to John Land around the same time period.
Sarah 15 February 1780 Quarry Hick, Thomas 6 January 1783, Mabgate, James 10 July 1786,
Mabgate, Lydia* 11 October 1789, Mabgate.
There were also Mary and Martha of John Land baptized
10 July 1793, Mabgate.
Note: This is not
necessarily the same John Land as the father of Thomas baptized in 1783.
*Lydia Land, single mother, Mabgate had: Martha in 1813, Mary in 1816 (St Peter's
Leeds PR)
- Thomas son of James and Hannah 05 Oct 1782 All Saints Wakefield
(All Saints PR)

No obvious birth record on IGI for Ann Shirt
Thomas Land and Ann Shirt had two children baptized in the Queen street Chapel.
- ★Thomas Land married Mary Gill in Wakefield 9 Jan 1803. Both signed. St Johns.
NOI
Thomas Land had a sister Elizabeth Land who married Samuel Musgrave and lived in Leeds.
Thomas Land, flax dresser, and Mary Gill also lived in Leeds and had Thomas,
Jane and Mary. See

Children of Thomas Land between 1803 and 1822:
- Elizabeth of Thomas Land, Kirkgate, 19 September 1803, Leeds, St Peter (Leeds
St Peter's PR)
-
William Land (1803-1847) Flax Dresser and Elizabeth Kent
Birth: 1803: I did not find a baptismal record. Year of birth based on death.
Notes:William Land was a flax dresser. He was listed on the same page as
Thomas Land in the 1841 census. He named his first son, Thomas. However,
the Thomas Land on that page in 1841 does not appear to be closely related to
William. Thomas Land born 1804 was the son of Thomas Land born 1799.
William was not mentioned in the will of Thomas Land senior (1780) in 1825.

See Where the Lands Lived in Leeds for more on Thomas Land
and Mary Gill and their family.
Was there any relationship between the Thomas Lands and Charles Land
(Married to Anne Dinsdell)?
Thomas Land (married to Ann Shirt) and Charles Land were both members of the Queen Street Chapel, Leeds. Queen Street Chapel
was a relatively small congregation. Thomas Land and Ann Shirt had
two children baptized in Queen Street: Ann
in 1817 and John in 1822. Potentially other children born to Thomas Land were
baptized between 1803 and 1812. The 1814 baptism in George Street Independent Leeds is a child of "a" Thomas and Ann Land .
All of the known children of Charles and Ann Land were baptized in Queen Street Chapel:
John in 1818, Elizabeth in 1820, Elizabeth in 1823, James in 1826, Charles in 1829, and
Emma in 1833.
They were both members of QSC in 1822.
Is their connection to Queen Street Chapel significant?
Thomas and Ann Land Land lived on Walter Lane Holbeck
in 1817 and 1822.
Charles Lewis Land was listed in Holbeck in 1820, 1822, Water Lane Holbeck in 1826,
Holbeck 1830, and Brewery Fields Holbeck in 1833, Canning Street (Hunslet) in 1834 and
Hunslet in the 1841 census. Ann Dinsdell Land (the widow of Charles Land) was on
Terrace Street Holbeck in the 1851, 1861 Censuses and at her death in 1871.
They were both at Water Lane circa 1822-1826.
Are the addresses at Water Lane significant?
Both Thomas Land and Charles named daughters, Emma: Thomas in 1812 and Charles in 1833.
The name was not common in general nor in the Land family.
Is there any significance
in the name Emma?
Conclusion: Despite some very tantalizing similarities there does not seem to be any real close connection between Thomas Land
(married to Ann Shirt) and Charles Land.
Thomas Land was born circa 1780. Therefore, he could not have been
a son of Charles Land (born 1767) and
Elizabeth Dunford. He could have been a brother of Charles Land. However, it is not likely. Charles Land's father
was born 1734. He would have been 46 in 1780 - not impossible but not likely either. Thomas could have been a nephew to
Charles Land. John Land could have had children as early as 1755.
Connections Between Charles Lewis Land, Thomas Land, and other Lands at Land's Court Waters Lane, Hobleck
- The batismal records of Queen Street Chapel indicate that:
- Thomas Land and Ann Shirt
were living at Water Lane
in 1817 and 1822.
- Charles Lewis Land and Anne Land were at
Water Lane, Holbeck, in 1826 at the baptism of their son, James Dunford Land.
There were several other Lands at Land's Court in Water Land, Holbeck between1817 and 1861.
I do not know if there is any relationship between Charles Lewis Land and the other Lands
connected at
Walter Lane/Land's Court, Holbeck. The records are sparce and not consistant.
