Chapel Mire - Little Langdale
« on: Sunday 16 October 05 14:11 BST (UK) »
Anyone have any information on Chapel Mire in Little Langdale and where I might track down any records?

Am trying to trace birth of Susannah Birkett in Little Langdale c 1794.  Date more or less confirmed by 1851/1861 census (although possible on 1881 census would mean dob was c 1790).

Current parish church was not founded until c 1827 with current building dating from mid 19th century.  Bishops Transcripts seem to start 1799. Nearest church after that was Grasmere but search of registers by v nice person at Kendal record office has nothing listed between 1793 - 1795.  In addition nothing listed on IGI for her in that parish (although lots of other Birketts).

A couple of pages for Langdale make reference to an old chapel at Chapel Mire that was replaced by the "chapel" at Great Langdale (presumably Holy Trinity or whatever was on the site pre this from 1827) but I can find nothing further.

Any help greatly appreciated.
