It is a mystery. The Annie who married ABD was definitely born 1851/52. She did have a sister Mary Greenhow born about 1848. I can only think that it was a confirmation cup. Were such things given as presents?
I have looked in other people's family trees and nowhere can I find a Greenhow. The only coincidental thing that I can find is that when they move to Flimby they are next door but one to a George Greenhow.

I have a very good photo of Annie Greenhow Nicholson which I will post when I've figured how to do it!

Ewanrigg hall was owned last by the Dixon family, me and my friend used to go to the milk parlour and get milk. 1990s. We also used to jump on the haystacks in the barn. Some of the best childhood memories are on the estate, haybailling.
My neighbour was John Dixon a relative of the DIxons who worked on the farm.
There is an ancient tree on the site. Kevin Thompson bought it and done nothing with it for years. Set on fire not that long after hmmmm, such a shame to see it as it is at the moment. Plans for 125 homes are currently being submitted on the land.
Looking for Dorris Riley book the rose and fall of Ewanrigg hall.
Born in Ellenborough, live in maryport now.
