Ann SIMPSON from ?

[Gigi]

Hi Jo,

William & Anne Ellwood's son Mark married Mary Mounsey.

MARK ELLWOOD was born 1797 in Bongate, and died 23 Mar 1875 in Asby.
He married MARY MAUNSEY 12 Aug 1822 in Long Marton. She was born 1798 in Culgaith.

Children of MARK ELLWOOD and MARY MAUNSEY are:
i. ANN ELLWOOD, b. 1823, Long Marton.
 ii. MARY ELLWOOD, b. 1826, Long Marton.
iii. MARGARET ELLWOOD, b. 1827, Long Marton.
iv. WILLIAM ELLWOOD, b. 1830, Lazonby.
v. RICHARD ELLWOOD, b. 1835, Lazonby.
vi. SARAH ELLWOOD, b. 1837, Lazonby.
vii. MARK ELLWOOD, b. 1840, Lazonby.

Mark's wife Mary died before 1871 as in the 1871 census Mark is a widower living with his younger brother John at Blasterfield Farm in Crosby Ravensworth.

I believe your Mark died 1868:

Mark Ellwood death 1868 DEC age 75 Kendal v10b page 431 - Mark Ellwoods death certificate 24 dec 1868 farmer died of bronchitis john ellwood in attendence of crabtree farm lupton.
Also:
>
>Mary Ellwood death 1866 Jun age 74 Kendal v10b page 432 Mary Ellwood
>death 1870 Jun age 78 Kendal v10b page 450.


Why do you think your Mark is William & Anne's son?

Regards,

Gillian

Hello
Thanks for supplying all this information. The trouble with a lot of mine is that its research i've inherited and don't always know where the information has come from. I will have to re-trace my line back carefully I think and look at the evidence. I will have a chat with my mother who has some of the certificated etc. Will let you know of my findings!

Hi All,

A researcher friend has since looked up the marriage entry of William Ellwood & Ann Simpson for me. It reads:

'William Ellwood of Langton bachelor and Anne Simpson of Gallows house spinster of this parish were married in this parish church by publication of banns this 27th day of July 1794 by me Harrison Shaw  vicar'. In the presence of Michel Nebnail (thats what it looks like) and James Richardson.
 
The banns are dated 6th, 13th and 20th July.
 
Unfortunately no ages or occupations were quoted.
 
Langdon was a hamlet in St Michaels parish Appleby.


Incidently, William Ellwood died 2/4/1841 (just before the census grrrr). The informant was Ann Ellwood, I presume his wife. His father, Mark Ellwood, was buried 9 June 1805 nr Appleby & his place of residence was Galehows which may be the same place as where Ann Simpson came from?

Hi Fay,

Thanks!

Problem now is that I still can't find Ann Simpson's place of birth and parents!
