OSMONDTHORP, (Yorkshire, W.R.) on the E. side of Leeds, is more properly Oswinthorp, it having been a royal village, and
the seat of the Northumbrian K. Oswin. One of the Osmond family had a seat here in after-times, from whence it has
obtained the present name. His estate here, for want of issue-male, went by marriage to the Sheltons.
