Richard's Ancestors

The family ancestry can be traced back to the area to the west of Kendal.
​
Obviously, validation of the information relating to individuals becomes harder the further back that we go.  For this reason, only information relating to Richard's Grandfather is shown here.


It may be noticed that in this period, roughly to the mid 19th century, the spelling of the family name varies. The probate of John illustrates this and seems to suggest that the confusion is centred upon him and could be due to the reliance upon others to transcribe the name.  The confusion persists until about the time of his death since it can be seen that several of his grandchildren carry the spelling without the e.
