The family of Mary Ann Philipson have been researched very thoroughly by another descendant of the family living in New Zealand.  This branch of the Philipsons were farmers who became bobbin manufacturers at Staveley. I am interested in another branch of the Philipsons, and together we think we can trace Mary Ann's family back to the the seventeenth century.

Mary Ann's parents were James Philipson and Mary Braithwaite. James's parents were William Philipson b.1764 and Ann Kelty b.1770, who were married in 1790. William was the son of Thomas Philipson b. 1738 and Isabel of Whinfell, Grayrigg.  Thomas was the son of William and Elizabeth Philipson, farmers of Longsleddale. They also lived for a short while at Roosecote cottages in the parish of Dalton, which was then in Lancashire.

William is also mentioned in a surviving quitclaim of 1724 which may support the idea that he was the son of Thomas Philipson and Jennet Sawrey. Thomas died in 1711 at Stricklandkettle. He may also be the brother of John Philipson of Burneside who was the progenitor of an enormous family of Philipsons, whose descendants can be found on many family history forums!
