Hi,

The C of E church at Hutton Roof is in the parish of Kirkby Lonsdale. Kendal Records Office has baptismal details from 1813 and marriage details from 1799 but no burial details. This could mean that either the church was not authorised for burials (unlikely), or that the register is still at the church or is missing.

It is also worth checking the parish church at Kirkby Lonsdale, as the details may have been transcribed into their records.

Good Luck

Hi Ashley,

I suspect that the surname is a variation of ION, which is reasonably common in different parishes throughout the county. It is also mistranscribed as JON in some parts of the IGI.

Good Hunting

Hi Odessa,

There are some transcriptions for the north of Westmorland, but unfortunately not for the main parish of Kendal as far as I know. There is one for the records of Sedbergh, so this may be worth a look.

Baptisms for the parishes of Kendal and Sedbergh are reasonably well covered on the IGI for the period you are looking at, but there is a distinct shortage of Ingrams in the area. The only possibilities I could see for 1777 were baptised in London & Bedford, so this may not help.

Have you found the apprentice record? The £70 may have been paid for by a family member or alternatively possibly a charity, trust or a church.

I shall let you know if I come across any information that may be of use.

Good luck

Chris

Hi Jill, 

Another one of Patrick's grandsons, Jim, plays county cricket for Worcestershire and was on SKY SPORTS' Cricket A.M. last Saturday, but I think they come from the Midlands.
