Hi jean,
          No I don`t have any certificates for him,He actually shows up on my great grandfather John Brownrig`s  marriage certificate as  father of John Brownrigg.
           Haven't got the date of John Brownrig`s wedding at hand but think it was around 1867.
                 Thomas Dent Fothergill`s occupation was down as it looks like Statesman,but could be stylesman.
              What is weird is that he doesn't show up on John Brownriggs Birth certificate 1839,so I assume John was his illegitimate son,as john`s mother is down as Margaret Brownrigg. They were from morland,Westmorland.
         I know Margaret Brownrigg was born around 1818 in Morland,so maybe this Thomas Dent Fothergill was around that era,but then again he could have been older,I mean it wasn`t unheard of for girls to get pregnant to the masters they worked for was it,just another theory  Huh.
        I wonder if anyone has access to the baptism records of Morland church,would love to know if Thomas Fothergill is mentioned on John`s Baptism records.
                             Best Regards
                                   Coreen

I remember now that we've talked before Coreen.

I remember because John Fothergill married Anne Brownrigg at Greystoke, Cumberland in 1829 - he was an innkeeper living in Springfield.  Anne must have died before 1836 because John remarried.

I haven't found any children for them in the short time they were married, so maybe all this has something to do with their relationship. ... although that would be around the 1820s.

I'm sure I've seen Morland baptisms somewhere online .... I'll have a look around.

Jean
Ar yes....they're on the Cumberland & Westmorland Archives but they're too early for what you want.
