A wapentake is a historical administrative division that originated in England, particularly in the northern counties. It was traditionally used as a subdivision of a hundred, serving as a jurisdiction for local governance and justice. The term is believed to derive from Old Norse, meaning a "weapon take," reflecting the practice of gathering and mustering men for military service. Wapentakes were significant in the context of local assemblies and law enforcement during the medieval period.

Who is Admiral Bray?
Several members of the West Yorkshire BRAY family were named 'Admiral.' In these cases it is always a forename, a given name, a Christian name and does not refer to naval rank. One was born in Leeds around 1812, and another was in the workhouse at Rastrick [between Huddersfield and Brighouse] in about 1860. Other examples occure but these spring readily to mind. I believe the Rastrick Admiral Bray is a relative of my branch [twig] of the ubiquitous and [sometimes] noble Bray family.
