Hi all

Have been reading this thread with great interest - I'm also trying to sort out a bunch of Meaburn DENTs (sorry - no JACKSONs). I was interested to read about Meaburn Hill Mill. Deborah - in your research, did you happen across a Robert DENT who at his death in 1710 was listed as living at Meaburn Hill Mill? His wife's name was Isabell.

Robert was  baptised 1678 in Lowther, son of Richard DENT. His brother was Myles DENT, baptised 1681 in Lowther. I don't know their mother's name.

I think Richard was baptised 1639 in Kings Meaburn, son of Richard DENT and Elisabeth WILSON. His siblings included Elizabeth (1636), John (1639-1640), Jane (1641-1647), Rowland (1643), Thomas (1646-1647), Ann (1646-1648), Margret (1651-1652) and Robert (1651-1651), all baptised at Morland.

I'd love to hear if anyone has any info on this DENT branch.

Cheers, Leah

Hi folks

I'd love to know where the following family members were in 1841:

Thomas DENT (b.1789 Keswick CUL) and Ann DENT nee STANGER (b.approx.1787 Keswick CUL, d.1857 Penrith CUL)

Their children:
Mary DENT (x.1807 Crosthwaite CUL)
Margaret DENT (x.1809 Crosthwaite CUL) married ? COOK
James DENT (b.1811 Keswick CUL) married Ellen HIGGIN
Eliza DENT (x.1813 Crosthwaite CUL)
(Thomas DENT x.1815 Crosthwaite CUL d.1817 Crosthwaite CUL)
Ann DENT (x.1818 Crosthwaite CUL)
Joseph DENT (x.1821 Crosthwaite CUL)
Sarah Anne DENT (x.1823 Crosthwaite CUL) m. Joseph GREENE
Thomas DENT (x.1826 Crosthwaite CUL)
William DENT (x.1827 Crosthwaite CUL)

I'm not sure where they will be as I spotted parents Thomas and Ann DENT in Birkenhead, Cheshire in 1851 and son James married Ellen HIGGIN in Ulverston LAN in 1841, although their first child Mark was born in Keswick in 1844.

Thanks in hope!
Cheers, Leah

Thanks so much Sandra.

Hi Richard

You probably have the following information, but if not, enjoy. I can't fill you in on the STANLEY side, but have a lot of DENT information should you like it. Ann was the daughter of James DENT and Ellen HIGGIN and I have information on a previous five or six DENT generations back to the early 1600s.

Cheers, Leah
