1761
Mary Farndale,
daughter of John & Grace Farndill (FAR00143) was baptised at Brotton on 26 April 1761 (Brotton PR).
1785
1812
When Thomas Mills
married Grace Frankland at Brotton on 17 September 1812, the witnesses were
Mary Farndale, John Wilkinson, George Farndale (perhaps FAR00170), and Mary Mills (Brotton PR).
It would be expected
that Mary would be using the surname Frankland, not Farndale in 1812, but this
seems likely to have been her, at the wedding of a relative, perhaps sister, of
her husband. Perhaps John Frankland had died, although I have not found a
record, and that for some reason Mary had returned to her parental home at
Kilton and started using her maiden name again. That she was a witness to her
husband’s relative’s wedding does not suggest a falling out with John.
1844
There was a Mary
Farndale who died in Brotton on 28 February 1844 and was buried on 1 March 1844
(Brotton PR). This seems likely to have been
her, again having reverted to her maiden name.
