Hello Stephen
Nice to have another Harling connction. Your Harling probably originated; or would be first recorded; in the Clapham branch of the family. Greg in Australia (who has the web site you mentioned) and myself also originate from the Clapham branch, most Harlings do, the Ingleton family seem to have died out in the late 17th Century.
Also nice to see your red rose avatar, lol.
Regards  ..............  Peter

Hello Julie and Andrea
Thanks both for your interest and valued suggestions. There is no doubt about it this forum has the most friendly and helpful people, also many of whom are extremely knowledgeable.

OK. Julie, yes the Suffolk marriage to Mary Neal is the strongest contender for Christopher's Marriage, we have known of this marriage for some years now but just can't prove it conclusively. We have searched for years trying to find Christopher's Christening, we know he was born in 1677 (as per his memorial on my website), but no luck yet, we did wonder if he was born in Carlisle! But there is nothing on the IGI?

Andrea, yes we have his will and also his son's will, Christopher and William respectively. Christopher was a very wealthy London merchant! (all details are on my web site).

The problem is the Carlisle entry for William's birth! Had his father been named Christopher we would have been on firm ground, but the entry gives William as the father! I strongly suspect this is an error! and should have been recorded as Christopher! But at the moment I am at a loss as to wheather there was indeed another Carlisle family of Harlings. Have you noticed any Julie on your researches?

Well Julie that is good news re your husband I would be interested to hear more, we may be related, no doubt we are if we take the Agnus Herlyng 1379 entry as our benchmark.

Any suggestions re the above would be most welcome, and thanks again for your interest.

Regards  ..................  Peter

Hello Suey
Yes, frustrating!!!!!! Isn't it just! I have a record of William's birth via his entry into school (Westminster) in 1734. His age was given as 14 when he entered school making him born in 1720! (for which we have an entry). But! and it is a big but! His father was CHRISTOPHER Harling of Carlisle not William!  ............... rrrrrrrrrrrrrgh.

I see Julie; no, a photocopy isn't necessary, I was just checking which original source was searched. So, it's back to the drawing board again!
My best wishes for your research Julie and kind regards with my thanks.  .............. Peter

Hello Julie
Gosh! That was quick. I really do appreciate your efforts on my behalf Julie, many thanks. I presume the record you looked at was a copy of the Bishops Transcript?

Hello Suey
Thanks for that information. Really, I think something is wrong here! The date matches, but not the father (William), which should be Christopher and his wife Mary. I can only confirm if someone has a source record available. Many thanks again Suey for reply.
Regards  .............  Peter

I have found on the  online IGI a birth I have been looking for viz:
                 Carlisle, St Mary. Chr. 5th April 1720 William HARLING
Unfortunately the entry gives no clue to parents. I would be grateful if anyone has the availability of a register/transcript copy of this entry which names the parents.
Many thanks. Regards  ...............  Peter
