Yarm Hall?

[Matt62]

I found a reference to my ancestor Thomas Fawell (1759-1841) in "Armorial Families: A Directory of Gentlemen of Coat-Armour, 1905": http://www.mocavo.com/Armorial-Families-a-Directory-of-Gentlemen-of-Coat-Armour-1905-Volume-5/980015/251

It states:

"...David Burton esq., J.P and D.I of Cherry Burton Hall, Beverley, by his wife Isabella, daughter of Thomas Fawell of Yarm Hall, Yorkshire..."

Could anyone tell me where or what Yarm Hall was? I can find Cherry Burton Hall where his son-in-law and daughter lived but not 'Yarm Hall'.

I have searched online for such a place in the village of Yarm and wider area but have been unable to find a house by this name. The only thing that comes up is Yarm Town Hall, which surely would not have been his house? 

Does anyone know of another 'Yarm Hall' that was, at any time, in the area or locale? I had assumed that because 'Cherry Burton Hall' was a house that 'Yarm Hall' must have been likewise, however I can't find references to it anywhere.

Map shows "Old Hall" in the village of Yarm - possibility?

While checking out "Yarm Hall", spotted the following in the Newcastle Courant, Sat 18 Oct 1783

"Married - Tuesday, at St Andrews, Mr Thomas Fawell of Yarm, to Miss Hindmarsh, daughter of the late Mr Tho. Hindmarsh, glover"

Thank you, I very much appreciate the link - I would never have found this website without you 

I searched the map and like you "Old Hall" struck me as a possibility, since it is right in the heart of Yarm. I will have to see if I can find more out about this building.

Thank you for this!

Isabella Hindmarsh was indeed the wife of Thomas Fawell. One of their grandsons called his daughter "Isabella Hindmarsh Fawell" after her.

'glover,' is that a place or a profession (ie a "glover" being a 'glove-maker' I think?)

There are a couple of references to Thomas here http://apps.nationalarchives.gov.uk/a2a/records.aspx?cat=020-uhd&cid=-1#-1 that might be of interest.

"Old Hall" in Egglescliffe.

Pretty sure the "Old Hall" on the map is in Egglescliffe village .
Can't imagine it being the same building as a hall in Yarm , as Yarm was in Yorkshire and Egglescliffe was in County Durham.

Many villages hava an Old Hall, so you would have to search on the location first, then look for the hall.
