Hello - Have just found my great,great,great,great grandmother ( with invaluable help from Roz from this site!) on the 1841 census.
Her name is Catherine Scarr born in Hunton n.Yorks 1779 her parents are listed as Jno (presume John) Scarr & Mary Irvin but I have no birth details, however my family (down through the generations) have always told me that my ancestors came from Askrigg . Does this ring any bells?
Catherine was married to James Pratt in Patrick Brompton & had sons George, Matthew & Benjamin- I can follow that line all the way up to the present day.
Please contact me if you'd like to hear more or think there might be a connection.
Bye for now
Rose
