I think your Isabella Hoggarth is the one who appears in the IGI as the  daughter of Joseph and Agnes, b. August 1st 1819, christened at Windermere.

Unfortunately I don't have the baptism records for 1819, but I do have baptism records for other children of Joseph and Agnes. The dates may contain errors because my copy is hard to read, and they  seem confusing:

1816 John, son of Joseph and Agnes, Lindeth, farmer.
1817 John son of Joseph and Agnes, Lindeth, farmer, b. Feb 11th, christened November  2nd.

1826 Joseph son of Joseph and Agnes, Lindeth, farmer.

Lindeth is still there.  It was a large estate containing several farms bought by John Bolton, a Liverpool merchant who made his fortune in the slave trade and lived at Storrs which is now a hotel.  Joseph Hoggarth appears as his tenant in the 1829 land tax for Undermillbeck.

Surnames can be very local, and Hoggarth isn't really an Undermillbeck name - the Hoggarth family originally came from neighbouring Troutbeck I believe, and the painter William Hogarth was related to them.  As a tenant farmer, Joseph is likely to have moved to Undermillbeck from somewhere nearby. However, there  one or two Hoggarths appear in the 1777 window tax.

I don't have records for Staveley, but there were certainly Studholmes in Staveley - Wiiliam and Ann stick in my mind.  If I come across anything, I'll let you know.

Thanks for that. I was hoping for a John Kelly - there didn't seem to be many Maria Kellys born in Cork on the pilot familysearch site, so I thought I might be lucky.  I never thought of checking on the original site!

Did you find more about Edward Philipson? His father John, the maltster of Ulthwaite Mill, was the son of Edward b. 1763 Preston Patrick, and Margaret (Peggy) Philipson. Edward's father was William b. 1725 Cowbrow, Lyth son of John and Mary Philipson.  He  married Ann Robinson at Burton-in-Kendal in 1760. In 1777 he paid window tax at Lupton (Preston Patrick).

William's father was John Philipson of Stricklandroger who married Mary Muncaster also of Stricklandroger, at Burneside, 19.5.1723.  John may have been the son of Thomas Philipson (d.1711, Stricklandkettle) and Jennet Sawrey, and the brother of William Philipson whose descendants became bobbin manufacturers. This is because John and William are mentioned together in a quitclaim of 1724 amongst the Sawrey family papers, and the family naming system (he had an elder brother named Thomas) supports this line of descent.  John of Stricklandroger was the originator of a large Philipson family with many descendants, who can be found making queries on genealogical messageboards!
