I was following the Charters Jackson line today, and found a marriage in Q3 1862 at Longtown, v:10b p:531

It shows 3 males and 1 female being married:
 
William Armstrong 
Charles Jackson 
Margaret Forster 
John  Morrison 

Even though the original image seems to show "Charles", I wonder if it was in fact supposed to be Charters?

To try to clear it up I did find a John & Margaret Morrison living in Longtown in 1871, and their first child was born 1863.  Leaving William Armstrong & Char??? Jackson together ?  I think it's a good possibility.

Hi Tricia,
Thanks for the e-mail and looking at this.
Yes, It is her and I have  got the marriage cert and it does look like it says 'Charles'. Married at Longtown Register Office. Apologies for not letting you know.

However I have left the posting on as I would like to hear from any one researching the Heigh/Armstrong line from Kirkby Lonsdale.


Yes on GR as Judith but haven't looked for Heigh's for a while. Must do that.
