Title: M inscriptions for Frosterley
Post by: Adamand on Friday 06 June 08 12:45 BST (UK)
Hello again. This time I thought I may as well go back up the dale and give a list of Surnames for Frosterley. Once again the names in brackets show that they appear on the same stone as the previous name. Two surnames on one stone sometimes make it easier for searchers to find the person they are looking for:-

Allison, Anderson, Armstrong (Walton) Armstrong, Atkinson, Baily, Bainbridge, Bewley, Blackett, Boon, Booth, Bousfield, Bowman, Brown, Burgess, Burnup, Burroughs (Boon and Forster) Burrup, Cant, Carr, Chambers, Charlton, Coates, Collinson, Collinson(Harrop) Craig, Davidson, Dawson, Dennison, Dobson, Dodd, Douglass, Dowson, Elliott, Ellwood, Emmerson , English, Fawcett, Fletcher, Frankland, Gardner, Gibson, Gill, Gowland, Gray, Greenwell, Harrison, Hogarth, Holroyd(Ridley) Hornsby, Hudson, Hume, Hutchinson, Hutton, Jackson, Jameson, Johnson, Johnson(Wilkinson & Robson) Jopling, Lee, Maddison, Madgin, Makepeace, Martin, MIller, Moffatt, Morgan, Mowbray, Nattrass, Parkin, Parmley, Peart, Pedelty, Pickering, Porter, Proud, Raine, Richmond, Ridley, Rippon, Robinson, Robson, Ross, Shaw, Simm, Simpson, Slater, Smith, Stephenson, Stout, Taylor, Thompson, Tunstall, Vickers, Wall, Wallace, Walton, Watson, Wearmouth, Wearmouth(Thompson) Weatherburn, Webb, Wedgwood, Welch, White, Whitfield, Wilkinson(Harmison) Winfield.

Many thanks for your speedy reply.

Might I trouble you to have a look at the Emmersons in Frosterley?   They seem to be quite cavalier about the use of multiple christian names and a monumental inscription might help sort them out.

Many thanks

Alan

Hello Alan. Here is one inscription for Emerson:-

In loving memory of Margaret Emerson, the beloved wife of Richard Emerson of Frosterley, who died March/9/1895 aged ?8? years.
Also Richard their son, the beloved husband of Margaret Emerson, who died November/13/1902 age 72 years.

There are other stones for Emerson but they are for the 1900's and none with unusual Christian names.

Hi Adam, Thanks for the info :). I might have been a bit ambitious my records show my possible ancestors as buying land there in 1629. Just wanted to find out if any descendants hung around there.

Hello Adam

Many thanks for your help - I'm sure these are connected but not the direct line I had hoped for. Could you let me have the more recent one by pm just in case it fits in as I extend the family from ggg grandad's siblings.

What have you on the Makepeace's there in Frosterley--the place with the nifty marble.

Post by: Adamand on Sunday 20 February 11 19:08 GMT (UK)
Hello Janis. The stone is in a very poor condition and I don't think it will be earlier enough for you.
Here is what can be read:-

In loving memory of William, beloved husband of Elizabeth Makepeace, died 23/November/1947 aged 86 years.
The other name on the stone is Joseph Wilfred but no dates.

Adam

Thanks anyway--My Makepeace's if they did not emigrate to the US lived in Pelton in the 1900's.  I am always hopefull to find my Ruth and Peter Makepeace's final resting spot--or just when they died would be a start.
