Whinlatter Toll gate

[brushbroomstick]

My gr gr grandparents William VICKERS and Mary FEARON were tollgate keepers on the Whinlatter pass near Keswick from the 1840s to the 1880s or 90s

About  18 months ago some lovely lady e-mailed me a photo of what she thought was the Whinlatter Toll gate cottage but I have since changed my computer and this photo was lost.

If anyone has a photo I would very much appreciate it.

Hello, saw your posting about the Vickers family.  I am tracing the Vickers family of Crosthwaite/KESWICK area.  I have copies of your William Vickers on the census from 1841 in the chance that they may be related to Joseph Vickers and Esther Hodgson who married at Crosthwaite 1833.  Ring any bells?
Regards

There does not appear to be a connection to my family that I can find.

I did find the following on Family Search when looking for my connections.

The baptism of a daughter Jane on 13 /3/1837 at Thornthwaite , the parents being Joseph Vickers & Esther.

The photo was of a cottage on the Whinlatter Pass which the sender thought was the only one likely to be the Tollgate cottage.
The photo on my profile is of John William Vickers born 1866 my grandfather and the grandson of William & Mary.

Joseph and Esther Hodgson were my gr gr grandparents. I have their descendants. I would like to know more about their location in Whinlatter, occupations, etc.  Their daughter Ann(e) was my great grandmother, illiterate when she married Henry Fenwick Pickering in Hensingham July 27, 1858.
