Ancestry
Bernard Ingham's ancestry, revealing him to be of both Yorkshire and Lancashire stock, with one ancestral line from Staffordshire, was published in an article in the September 2006 issue of the UK genealogy magazine, Practical Family History. This article was researched and written by Roy Stockdill, an old friend of Ingham's when they both worked as young journalists in Halifax in the 1950s. It showed that the Inghams originally came from Manchester and Salford, but Bernard's grandfather Henry Ingham moved to the Calder Valley and Hebden Bridge. On his maternal side, Bernard's ancestors were mostly from Hebden Bridge and Heptonstall, while his maternal grandmother Jane Vernon descended from Staffordshire coal miners.
