Hello Megran and Radcliff

thank you both for your help  :)

Yes that is the right marriage for Jane Caroline who married Jackson. I have just be looking at the derby inn on Google maps using the street view what a lovely town and the inn too
will have to put it on my ever growing list of places to visit when I get over there one day  :)
I was also looking at the Coot on the Tarn as well, is it a hotel or restaurant or both it looks very nice ?
haven't found a Parker Jackson yet, did the family own the Coot on the Tarn for a long time ?

Elizabeth and John Edward Borwick are running the The Crown Hotel at Grange-Over-Sands in 1911
and 1901 they are at 3 Upper Brook Street, Ulverston another Inn but I haven't been able to find the name of it yet, I wonder how many of the other children have run hotel/ Inn ?

thank you both again

Margaret Atkinson on 17 Apr 1872 at Urswick, Lancaster, England

or Jane Abbotson 15 Aug 1857 at Cartmel, Lancashire, England

 ???

Hi Radcliff

thank you  :)

I haven't started looking for any info on Jane Caroline yet
apart from finding her on the 1871 an 81 census

Thats interesting about Edwards occupation as a inn keeper in

1851 Wood cutter at Eskdale and Wasdale, Cumberland
1861 Wood cutter at Lower Holker, Lancashire
1871 Edward is a wood cutter Urswick, Lancashire
1871 Jane died in  at Urswick, Lancashire
1872 he then marries Margaret Atkinson at Urswick, Lancashire
1881 he is a laborer at Urswick, Lancashire
1891 he is a inn keeper at the Derby arms inn until his death in 1921

I wonder what inn he was running when Jane Caroline was born ???

looks like some more investigating to do

would The Derby you ref to be the Derby Arms Inn ?

thank you again

Jackie
