Hi Corrine
Jane is my great great grandmother. The line goes down through her daughter Margaret, sister of Mary Jane who is your link. Margaret married Mossop Thomlinson and had a daughter called Margaret who married a Pattinson. My grandad was Roger Pattinson (known as dodger) who was a local charachter in Egremont - good at gurning at the crab fair, distilling his own whisky and laying trails for the hounds. My mum's sister Margaret Pattinson (lived in Egremont) unfortunatley died last year taking with her a lot of the family knowledge. At work at moment so will put more on later

Hi
Sorry Jane married Mossop! I was at work!
I live in Leeds. My mum was brought up in Egremont as a girl although she left when she was 14. Her sister stayed and still has family there. What about you?
I have only been doing this 1 week so not quite got a lovely tree yet. Would you like a picture of Jane - I can get a copy
Helen

Hi
Oh my god, i would love a picture of Jane! I have a really nice picture of Mary Jane Tomlinson with her husband John Hodgson and their 5 girls if you would like a copy of that?
So is it Janes daugther, Margaret who is your link?
I live in Kendal, born and bred. Ive moved around the country a bit but ended up back here. My dads side of the family are all from the Cockermouth, Egremont, Workington area and mums side are Ulverston, Windermere. So we havent moved around a lot at all!
my email is (*)
I look forward to receiving the pic.
Corinne

- Be warned she looks a bit severe!
Yes Margaret is the link - Jane lived with Margaret in Egremont at the end of her life.
My mum asked me to find out more about her - particularly the story that she tolled the bell at Wordsworth funeral. The dates are spot on for this because Wordsworth died in 1850 and we know Ann was at the rectory in 1851. Apparently towards the end of her life she lost her sight and used to send the grandchildren to Grasmere Church yard to put their arms around a tree planted in Wordsworth memory and the grandchildren had to come back and tell her how big it had grown - not sure which tree though!
Mum is going to get copies of the photo and I will get them to you.

forgot i couldnt show my email on here!
i have seen some very scary photos on my travels of various ancestors, they didnt smile much back then!!
my mum cant remember much at all about the family, she keeps saying "it was never talked about"
It will be interesting to see if Jane has the same characteristics of that side of the family. All the women had long drawn faces and were very thin! Until me!!

Girls,
Just wondered if any of you can help. Can,t help feeling there may be a connection somewhere.
My Mary hayes was a dressmaker to 1851. Bewtween there and 1861 when they moved to the Lancaster and Kendal area, she became a ladies maid. Wonder where.
Any William hay (es) in your family trees around 1780? Arkley (soundex mean anything). Newtons / Dixons?. I can find a vague connection between a Wm Hayes/Jane, Lancaster C1800.
Just a thought as I am old enough to be asking them in person shortly
and lastly, the comment above. All my family are tall and thin.
Happy days

Harry
literally the only Hayes i have is Jane b 1837 rydal/grasmere. i am sure they all must be related somehow though. I have been on a sticking point with her for months.

Hi Corrine
Have you any idea how we make contact through email from this site - I can't find the magic button.
I have just found a reference to a christening of a Jane Hayes in 1837 (Rydal) with mother Margaret. It would be really good to find out exactly where you have been and what records you have looked through - so swapping emails would be good for this.

Are you out there Harry
More about Jane (my) I don't know whether this is a connection or not but in the 1841 Census there is a 4 year old Jane Hayes(r) who is living/staying with two males neither with her surname. I noticed that one was a 13 year old boy John Dixon (born about 1828 Westmorland). They are in Grasmere
In April you asked if Newton/Dixon names meant anything to either myself or Corrine. Could there be any connection here with this very young Jane Hayes or is it purely coincidental.
Can you shine any light on this?
