1781
Elizabeth
Farndale, the daughter of Samuel Farndale (FAR00149) of Kilton a joiner & Elizabeth his wife was
baptised at Brotton on 22 July 1781 (Brotton PR).
When Elizabeth
Farndale was born in 1781 in Kilton, Yorkshire, her father, Samuel, was 46, and
her mother, Elizabeth nee Hutton, was 31
1801
Elizabeth
Farndale married William Smith on 2 June 1801 at Skelton,
by Banns. She was aged 20. William Smith of the Chapelry of Liverton and
Elizabeth Farndale of the Chapelry of Brotton were married in this church by
Banns this 2nd day of June 1801 by me, Joseph Dawson, Curate. This
marriage was solemnised between us William Smith and Elizabeth Farndale (her
mark) (Skelton PR).
I can’t find any
record of Elizabeth Smith after this which may have been her. She appears to
have separated in some way from William by 1802 because she then had two
daughters both of whom, in the language of the time, were described as illegitimate.
1802
Hannah Farndale (FAR000245) is recorded as the illegitimate
daughter of Elizabeth Farndale, baptised on 1 March 1802 (Skelton PR). She Probably died at birth.
1805
Harriet Farndale (FAR00249), daughter of
Elizabeth Farndale, was baptised on 20 January 1805 (Skelton
PR).
It seems odd that
this Elizabeth married on 2 June 1801, and gave birth illegitimately to Hannah in
about March 1802, which is 9 months after her wedding. There are no other
Elizabeth Farndales who could have been the mother of Hannah and Harriet.
It may be that
Elizabeth was already pregnant with Hannah when she married William Smith,
which would explain why that marriage didn’t last.
1846
Elizabeth
Farndale died in the second quarter of 1846 and the death was registered at
Stokesley District (GRO Vol 24 Page 376).
She may have been living near her siblings who were at Great Ayton by then.
