Percival Family & associated families of Solway Coast

[Jueb1962]

Hi,

I am a descendant of William Percival 1787-1858 and Elizabeth Irving 1787-1867 my 3xGreat Grandparents.  William was born in Bowness, son of John Percival & Hannah Rayson and Elizabeth was born in Rockcliffe, daughter of William Irvin & Elizabeth Sinclair.  William and Elizabeth married in Rockcliffe in 1810 and raised their family there including my 2xGreat Grandfather John Percival born 1824.

My cousin has recently started a face book page called "Percivals (and associated families) of Solway Coast, Cumberland" for anyone who has a research interest in anyone linked to the Percival family.

Surnames of interest: Percival, Irving, Tinning, Black, Robson, Carruthers, Sinclair, Wannop, Robson, Little, Dent, Graham

Hi

I am a descendant (my great, great, great grandfather)of Barras (or Barwise) Percival who was married in Bowness to Jane Pattinson in 1794 and had six children.Other than that, I have so far been unable to find out anything else about him or his wife. I would be very interested in any information you can provide on them and how he fits into the Percival clan. I am also very happy to share my family tree with you.
I look forward to hearing from you
Kind regards
Tony Geary
