Hi
My wife's family are descended from Thomas Crone through his son John (born 1752)
Thomas is listed at his children's baptism as being a waller then as an innkeeper.
The family move to Westnewton, then to Mawbray (Holm Cultram) and finally his great grandson moved to Maryport. Dan Crone set up a mens' outfitters business in Maryport and four of his children emigrated to Canada.
I can give you a lot more information about that branch of the family if you are interested.
I was pleased to see your summery because your list of children from Thomas is more extensive than mine!
I don't know about the other Thomas Crone

Hi Karen
First Thomas Armstrong's mill
My investigations locate the mill at Ordance Survey grid ref 508623. On the map this is described as a 'motte'. The present day buildings are not the original ones and talking to the owner they couldn't shed any light to their date. They look Victorian. The earliest map I can find is the 184? Tithe map which clearly shows the mill and fish ponds next to it.
Second. I am descended from Thomas Armstrong 111. I believe that he had 12 children and the 7th was Isaac who only had one child a daughter Mary Ann who is my great grandmother.
Third Jane Bowman
She was very poor and consequently supported by the parish. There is a detailed list of payments to Jane between the years 1751 and 1773. I read it that Jane also had a mother called by the same name so it is difficult to understand who received which payments. James's father Robert and uncle??? Thomas received payments but in their case it was for the making of coffins and one shilling a time for a fox head.
I have typed up all of these records from the originals but how do I send them to you?
Tell me how and I will forward them
Lastly I have traced Robert's (christened 24.3.1718) father as Edward Bowman de Koulholm. Can't find his birth date but his eldest son was Johan (christened 9.1.1709) which puts Edward firmly into the 1600s
Hope this is all useful

Hi Trevor,
I read your post saying that John was your wife's Great Grandfather, he was my Great Grandfather too! I'm happy to share what I have on the Brinicombes if you want.
Best wishes
