Edward was die seun van Edward Wortley.
Charles I (r.1625-1646) was die tweede seun van Koning James I. Hy het die erfgenaam van die troon geraak na sy broer, Prins Henry se dood in 1612. Hy was die tweede Stuart Koning van Engeland. Charles het sy pa se verskille met die Parliament geërf, maar sy eie optrede (veral die rampspoedige oorloë met Frankryk en Spanje) het uiteindelik gelei tot 'n krisis in 1628-1629. Spanning tussen die Koning en die Parliament rondom finansies, is vererger deur die koste van die oorlog in die buiteland. For much of the 1630s, the King gained most of the income he needed from such measures as impositions, exploitation of forest laws, forced loans, wardship and, above all, ship money (extended in 1635 from ports to the whole country). Hierdie maatreëls het hom baie ongewild gemaak, en baie mense wat die ondersteuners van die Kroon was vervreem. Omstredenheid en geskille het vir Charles dwarsdeur sy regeringstyd geteister. Dit het uiteindelik gelei tot die burgeroorloë, eers met die Skotte (1637) en later in Engeland (1642-1646 en 1648). Die burgeroorloë was hoofsaaklik konfrontasies tussen die monargie en die Parliament oor die definisies van die magte van die monargie en gesag van die Parliament. Die oorloë het die verdeeldheid van die mense vererger. (The official website of the British monarchy) In 1642 het die burgeroorlog tussen die koning en die parliament uitgebreek. Yorkshire was verdeel hierdeur. Die royalists het York as hulle basis gebruik. Teen die einde van 1642 het hulle vir Leeds en Wakefield captured. They besieged Bradford and Halifax but failed to capture them. In laat Januarie 1643 het die parliamentarians ‘n teenaanval geloots. They recaptured Leeds and Wakefield. Die Royalists het die battle of Aldwalton in Junie 1643 gewen. As a result they captured all of Yorkshire except Hull. In Oktober 1643 het die pendulum het na die anderkant toe geswaai. The parliamentarians in Hull drove back the royalists and lifted the siege. In March 1644 the parliamentarians took Bradford and in April 1644 they took Leeds. In July 1644 the royalists were routed at the battle of Marston Moor. Op hierdie manier het die royalists die hele noordelike Engeland verloor.

Edward
Wortley was ‘n Yeoman. Yeoman het
grond in eiendom gehad, maar huurders van groot, gentry plase
was ook yeomen, sonder om 'n akker in eiendom te hê.
Yeomen was welvarende boere, d.w.s. met ‘n inkomste van meer as £40 per jaar in
1600. (Sommerville, J.P.: Economy and society in
early modern England.) Die Yeoman was ‘n kommersiële
boer. Hy het nie net vir sy eie gebruik geboer nie, maar ook vir die
mark. Sy plaas was groot genoeg om arbeid van buite af in te kry.
Toe die prys van graan en vee in die vroeë 17de eeu opgaan, was yeomen boere
die grootste produsente vir die mark. Large-scale commercial
farmers often obtained leases of Crown and church estates, and since the
wealthier gentry and aristocracy normally leased out rather than farmed
directly most of their estates – yeomen farmers actually occupied and profited
from the expanding holdings of the gentry. Daar was geen defnitiewe
lyn tussen die yeoman se plaas en die van ‘n husbandman nie.
(Zell, Michael: Early Modern Kent, 1540-1640) Husbandmen,
earning about £15 pounds per annum in 1600. (Sommerville,
J.P.: Economy and society in early modern England.)
Dit wil voorkom asof William Hepworth van Shepley Hall as 'n prokureur gepraktiseer het; sy naam kom op daardie tydstip dikwels in transaksies van openbare en private sake van die distrik voor. Ten spyte van sy office of coroner van die wapentake, en so ook dié van invorderaar van sy Majesteit se huur (waarvoor hy £ 20 per jaar verdien het, sowel as £ 15 per jaar se huurgeld uit Lancashire, wat aan sy vrou behoort), was sy omstandighede nie voorspoedig nie. Hy was ook in diens van Sir Francis Wortley, van Wortley, baronet, to receive the modus in lieu of the rectorial tithe of this parish, wat hy op daardie tydstip op huurkontrak van die kroon gehou het. Dit lyk of hy op intieme voet met Sir Francis was, want hy het oor hom en sy gesin 'n paar besonderhede aangeteken. (Morehouse, Henry James: The history and topography of the parish of Kirkburton and of the graveship of Holme, Holmfirth in the county of York. Huddersfield MDCCLXI) In 5 Charles I. (1629) die 12de Junie, verkoop hy, all his moiety of the manor of Shepley, the hall, &c., lands, woods, free rents, perquisites of courts, &c., reserving to himself and his wife certain annuities during their lives aan John Firth, van Cumberworth. Hepworth het voorheen 'n deel van die estate vir £ 100 aan Gámliël Whitaker, predikant van Kirkburton en sy vrou Hester verpand; the interest of which was stipulated to be paid " in the south porch of Kirkburton Church."

Na die teregstelling van Koning Charles I in 1649, het Cromwell beheer oor die ‘Commonwealth of England’ gehad. Cromwell (of een van sy manne wat namens hom geteken het), was verantwoordelik vir die teken van ‘n deed waarin bepaal word dat nie meer as 6 mense vergaderings by Shepley - Lane Head Meeting House mog bywoon nie. Dit moes voor 1650 gewees het, aangesien Cromwell meer verdraagsaam teenoor die Quakers en hul verdeeldheid met die kerk was. Daar word vermoed dat die opregtheid en toewyding van die Quakers 'n belangrike faktor in die verandering van sy houding was.
Edward Wortley word in 1665 in die Askham Area van die All Hallows Church in Kirkburton begrawe. (Edward Wortley, of Shepley, yeoman, was buried January 4th, A.D., 1665.) Begrafnisgangers sou sy liggaam met Long Lane tot by Corn Mill Bottom geneem het, vanwaar hulle die ‘corpse route’ oor Box Ings na Kirkburton, tot by die kerk se lychgate sou neem.

Toe die koning openlik oorlog verklaar, het William Cavendish, Earl of Newcastle die bevel van die vier noordelike provinsies gekry. In November 1642 het hy tot in Yorkshire gevorder, vir York omring en vir Fairfax teruggedryf.
Oliver Cromwell was was een van die
bevelvoerders van die New Model Army en was
'n Parliamentarian, ook as Roundheads
bekend. Fairfax, wie se huis in York was,
was sy general-majoor. In 1642 was hulle
betrokke by die Slag van Edgehill (die eerste in die Burgeroorlog); en in 1643 die Slag van Gainsborough.
Die mense van die Kirkburton omgewing was baie
geinteresseerd en aktief betrokke by die Burgeroorlog van 1642. Terwyl sommiges hulself arrayed het
onder die vaandels van die rojaliste, het andere van verskeie klasse, met gelyke
erns en ywer onder die vaandel van die parlementariërs aangesluit. Though
involving principles of the highest importance, both civil and religious, yet
they were regarded with very opposite views, and maintained by each party, with
a pertinacity almost incredible. (Morehouse,
Henry James: The history and topography of the parish of Kirkburton and
of the graveship of Holme, Holmfirth in the county of York. Huddersfield
MDCCLXI)
Dit was in die lente van 1643, terwyl
die Earl of Newcastle met sy groot leër by Wakefield gelê het,
wat die inwoners, onmiddellik aan die westekant van Wakefield (naamlik die
gemeentes van Almonbury, Kirkburton en Penistone), genader is en waar die
partydigheid ten gunste van die parlement baie sterk was. It is evident
that the inhabitants of this district were, for the most part, favourable to
the parliament, and many of them were deeply tinctured with republican sentiments. (Morehouse,
Henry James: The history and topography of the parish of Kirkburton and
of the graveship of Holme, Holmfirth in the county of York. Huddersfield

—Extract from the Proclamation issued by Sir
Thomas Fairfax, at this time, “ to raise the countiy ” against the King’s
forces. “ To the Constable of Mirfield, . . .I do hereby require you to give

let the poorer sort bee furnished by yu the Constable out of ye comon stocke
for ye like time. Hereof faile yu not at yr prill as yu tend yu tend yor ovvne
good & the good of this bleeding & distressed country. Given under my
hand at Bradford the 19th day of January, 1642-3. “ Tho : Fairfaux.” (Collins,
Frances Anne, ed.: The Parish registers of Kirkburton, co York.
Vol. I. 1541—1654. 1887) Die inwoners van Holmfirth het ‘n honderd
musqueteers tot diens van die Parliament gelewer op die bevel van Lord General
Fairfax. (Collins, Frances Anne, ed.: The Parish registers of Kirkburton,
co York. Vol. I. 1541—1654. 1887. P.240 – 241)
Daar is 'n bewyse dat
Cromwell se troepe aktief in die Shepley/Kirkburton gebied was in 1643-1644. By die Slag van Marston Moor in Julie 1644
het die Parliamentarians die noorde van Engeland oorwin, maar kon hulle nie die
koning gesinde weerstand beëindig nie.
Met die Slag van Preston
(1648) was daar nog 'n poging deur die Parliamentarians om die noordelike
koningsgesindes finaal te verslaan. Daar
was sterk konings gesinde weerstand in Liverpool, selfs in Holm Firth en die Vicar van Kirkburton, sy familie en 'n paar naburige gemeentes, was
ook sterk koningsgesinds en het vir weerstand gepreek. Daar was selfs sprake van ‘n rebellie. In
hierdie deel van Yorkshire was die geestelikes magtige, invloedryke en aktief in
konflik met die Parliamentarians.
Op daardie stadium was die Firths prominente
families in Shepley. Daar was twee
afsonderlike families. Die vredeliewende Quakers was die rooikop Firths van Lane
Head. Die Firths van Shepley Hall is beskryf
as die swartkoppe. John Firth of Cumberworth, het Shepley Hall in 1629 gekoop en
het daar gewoon tot 1682. Hierdie John
Firth was koning gesinds in 1643 en hy is deur ‘n groep afgevaardigde soldate gedwing
om hulle na die Kirkburtonse Parish Church pastorie te neem, waar hulle die Vicar Gámliël Whitaker inhegtenis moes
neem, vir sy konings gesinde sieninge. Firth
het daarin geslaag om in Box Ing Wood op die Shepley-Kirkburton lyk roete te
ontsnap. Hy moes hy op 'n perd agter een
van die soldate ry. Oppad Kirkburton toe het hy egter met geleentheid
van die perd afgegly, skuiling in 'n aangrensende woud geneem en homself
so bevry. (Morehouse, Henry James: The history and topography
of the parish of Kirkburton and of the graveship of Holme, Holmfirth in the
county of York. Huddersfield MDCCLXI. P. 24)
Ten
spyte daarvan dat hulle tot die aand toe na hom gesoek het, is Firth nie gevind
nie. Die nou woedende soldate is hierna Kirkburton toe om vir Gámliël Whitaker
in hegtenis te neem. Hulle het die huis en tuin deursoek, maar kon niemand anders,
insluitende sy vrou Hester, vind nie. Op
een of ander manier was sy vrou doodgeskiet.
Die Revd. Whitaker is by Manchester in die trunk gesit waar hy ‘n maand
later van hartseer en swak behandeling dood is.
Carr House een van die oudste huise in die omgewing is in 1740 deur vuur vernietig. Die huis is herbou en die Tinker familie het vir baie jare daar gewoon. (Billington, David: Shepley, Believe it …… or Not!) Die Tinkers was hulle (die Firths) se bure vir talle generasies. Hulle was ook aansienlike grondeienaars. A popular saying at the time included: “Firths o’t’ Lane Head and the Tinkers o’t’ Carr Went up Nabs Cliffs as far as they dar” (Billington, David: Shepley, Believe it …… or Not!)
It seems that one of the Tinker patriarchs was a wild, hectoring type of individual. By all accounts, this character was obsessed with hunting and would ride the hills all day with his hounds – often carelessly across his neighbours’ land – before returning to the homestead to drink and carouse the night away. Suffice it to say, he was not popular in the district and few were sorry when he died at quite a considerable age. However, it transpired that Tinker was not going to permit death to prevent him form terrorising his neighbours. One night, following his passing, an elderly subsequent resident of Carr Shouse was disturbed by a blood-culling howl, causing her hair to prick up like ‘nine pins on a door mat’. Presently, she heard the sound of the horses whinnying and kicking in the stables, but whilst she attempted to ignore the cacophony, it persisted until she realised she would have to venture out into the darkness to investigate. The old woman found the stables locked as she had left them, but as she unfastened the doors and thrust her candle inside, she was confronted by the horses stamping and frothing at the mouth in fright. The animals holted and as the woman fled, she caught a fearful glimpse of the source of their terror. It was the pallid spectre of Tinker, risen from the grave to indulge in a final hunt. Indeed, some locals say that his ghost can be seen riding down Carr Lane on stormy nights still. (Roberts, Kai: Haunted Huddersfield)

Hill End House is in ongeveer
1650 gebou.
In a
chequered history, it was in a strong Quaker area; rumoured to have been used
for religious meetings (probably illegal); as a working farmhouse which
included new textile machinery - attacked by Luddites in 1812. (Billington, David: Shepley, Believe it
…… or Not!)
In 1656 was daar ook deeds vir Long Close Farm, aangrensend
aan die Wool Road na New Mill Bridge.
