Colin has been researching his family history for many years and you can read more about this Appleby line, as well as history of Thornaby-on-Tees and Eryholme on Colin's own website
This tree begins with Robert of Eryholme, who was probably born at Mickley in the Parish of Kirkby Malzeard in 1777.
UPDATE! Since adding this tree to the website, we have been contacted by another descendant of this line, whose family emigrated to Canada. I hope to add new information to the line of Frederick James Appleby and Ethel May Wilkinson very soon.
We have also discovered through our DNA testing programme that this line, as well as the line descended from Thomas Appleby of Leeds, is linked to the much older line of Henry Appleby of Kirkby Malzeard. We now need to locate the documentary evidence to explain where the connections between these three lines lie.
this section of Jeffery's map of Yorkshire 1771 shows Eryholme (spelled Ayreholme) just across the River Tees from Hurworth.

This postcard showing Thornaby in 1903 was posted by a small boy to his Aunt in Scotland before the Great War - after the Aunt's death her daughter found a box of postcards in the attic and returned them to the family - providing much information about long lost relatives to the family of that small boy, who happened to be living in Thornaby 100 years later!
Perhaps YOU have got a box of postcards and letters lurking in your attic?
