Hi,
I am researching families from Longsleddale and wondered if there is anyone out there doing the same.
The names are: Kellet/ Kellett, Kitchen/ Kitchin, Todhunter, Wilson.
John Kellet married Abigail Todhunter in 1755 in Longsleddale. I have found a baptism record for John Kellet, son of John Kellet and Mary, in Selside, 1723.
I can't find any record of Abigail Todhunter's birth so if anyone can help on that, I'd be very grateful.
Also would appreciate anything on any of the above names.
Regards,
Jen

Ok, We are in agreement for quite a lot of this but there is a discrepancy at one stage.
Let's start with Agnes Kellett, married to Thomas Kitchen. She lived in either Kilnstones or Yewbarrow Hall, Longsleddale. The couple had at least seven offspring, all daughters but I have no record of Elizabeth. She must have been their eldest child, the eariest I have is Ann, born 1831. Can you tell me more?
Agnes died Oct 1894. But in 1891, she was at Barkbooth, Crosthwaite, so I think that confirms your idea of a link there. Do you know the area, or even live here? Both of those houses are still in Longsleddale and very lovely too.
Agnes's parents: William Kellett and Ann Wilson, married 20/2/1792, Longsleddale. They had nine children, Abigail, Thomas, Isabella, Ann, John, Richard, Elizabeth, Agnes and Frances. William died 1843, Ann in 1861, both in Longsleddale.
Here is where we differ:
I have William's parents as John Kellet and Abigail Todhunter, married 16/12/1755, Longsleddale, John was born around 1723 in Selside, Westmorland. Their offspring included: William, Thomas, Joseph and David. All born Longsleddale
John's parents were: John Kellet , born c1700 and Mary (?). They had at least three children, John, Thomas and William.
So you can see that we have different information on this family. I don't have a note of my sources on my lap-top so will have to hunt them out but a great deal of my research was done in the Westmorland Records Offices so I will have checked pretty thoroughly. Can you tell me where your information came from? If I am wrong, I have to change my friend's tree, double quick!
Cheers,
Jen

Hi Jen
not sure what happened there, I was mid flow with an email when the system told me the website was too busy and I seem to have lost the entire message
To confirm
I have marriage certificate for Elizabeth Kitchen and John Newton 10/12/1849 - Elizabeth was living at Longsleddale at the time and it shows her father as being Thomas - her witness was her sister Agnes. By 1861 she was living at Kilnstone with her husband and 5 of her children
I have 9 children in total for Thomas and Agnes - Ann being the eldest - born c 1827, then Elizabeth c1829, William c1832, Agnes c1834, Jane c1836, Isabella c1839, Mary c1842, Sarah c1847, Margaret c1850. Agnes and Thomas were living at Yewbarrow Hall in 1861 (with some of their children who hadn't already fled the nest) and Thomas was also living there in 1871 census
In 1861 census Elizabeth Kitchen was living at Kilnstone - by this time she was married to John Newton
I have 10 children for Agnes and THomas - they are: Abigail c1792, Thomas c1794, Isabella c 1796, Ann c1797, John c1799, Richard c 1801, Elizabeth c1802, Agnes c1807, FRances (or Fanny) c1811 & John c1818 (I can only assume the earlier John may have passed away early?
William (husband of Agnes) was in 1841 census with wife Ann and several of their children @ YEwbarrow hall - and he later died @ YEwbarrow hall in 1843. Wife Ann remained at Yewbarrow with her daughter Agnes and family up till 1861 census
William Kellet b1738 - I have his date of baptism as being 19/11/1738 and he died in Murthwaite in 1823 - death details confirmed in Longsleddale Church burial book (confirmed by current owner of YEwbarrow Hall) and baptism date from a member of the Kellett family. The same source confirmed Agnes' place and year of death as being 1822 also in Murthwaite.
whilst I've not seen the burial book, etc I have accepted the information provided to me (??)
hope this assists
regards
Anne

Hi Jen
I had probs with my car today too - my faukt, bumped in to a kerbstone and cut two chunks out of the tyre! all repaired now
It would be great if you could get in to the registry office - thank you so veyr much - most kind of you to (only if you have time though - thanks...)
which school was your daughter (and her friend) at? My mother was a Bateman - went to School in Ambleside... Not sure how old your daughter's friend is, but suspect she's considerably younger than my mother - but may well be somehow connected
will pm now
regards
Cajondy
