Default I need someone to agree with me.

It's this blinky Addison family again.

I have Agnes Addison daughter of Hugh Addison marrying William Kirkby 5th Nov 1727, Hawkshead, Lancs.

I can't find Agnes' birth but I have Hugh Addison's will of 1743 where he names Agnes Kirkby as his daughter and also names the grandchildren.

Hugh Addison's wife was Jane Unknown. Cannot find a marriage.

I've stumbled across a will of Robert Scales from Hawkshead. It's dated 1707 (he died 1708). It names his daughter and son in law as Jane and Hugh Addison.

Robert doesn't name any children for Jane and Hugh, but the dates could work well.

Robert Scales' wife was Agnes Mackreth (a surname that pops up for generations of wills in the Kirkby family).

I've pencilled Jane Scales as Hugh's wife, but can anyone think of anything else I can search.

Sounds like the same people to me Libby.

Maybe look for a baptism for Jane Scales to see if the ages still fit and it might lead to the marriage.

on Lan-opc there is a marriage as follows
3rd february 1682/83 at Holy Trinity, Bolton le Sands
Hugh Addison to Jane Chippindall
abode for both is Boulton
I can only presume that 82/83 means the transcriber couldn`t decipher if it is a 2 or 3
so.....how far is Boulton from Hawkshead ?....let`s try and find out
allan
ADDED.......35 miles to Bolton Le Sands from Hawkshead....
Agnes to WILL Kirkby (not William) 5th November 1727 at St Michael and All Angels,Hawkshead,Lancashire

Allan...distance doesn't worry me with this lot. They'd go anywhere to marry if it meant more money....lol
I have pencilled that marriage in ages ago, but Hugh Addison died in 1743 so I thought that would be too early.............his parents maybe???

Then there's that will of Robert Scales who gives his daughter and son in law as Jane and Hugh Addison.

I know you don't have a birth/bap record for Agnes Addison, but do you know roughly when she was born, or the birth (rough) years for any siblings or at least any names?

Allan

The 1682/3 thing is to indicate the old style calendar before 1751.
