Emma
Farndale, daughter of John and Martha Farndale of Coatham-Stob (Long Newton
Parish) (FAR00217), was
baptised at Brotton on 2 December 1839 (Brotton PR).
Her
birth was registered in Stockton District
in the last quarter of 1839 (GRO 24 page 216).
Emma Farndale (whose mother’s surname was Patton)
died when living at Coatham and was buried on 20 December 1839, an
infant. She was buried at St Margaret (St Peter?), Brotton (Stockton PR). She
died at the age of only 18 days.
Emma
Farndale's death was registered in Stockton
District in the last quarter of 1839 (GRO 24 page 148).
She
sadly died an infant on 20 December 1839 (Skelton
PR) shortly after her mother, John’s wife, Martha, also died in childbirth.
She was 19 days old when she died. She was buried at St Peter’s, Brotton.
Martha, wife of John Farndale of
Coatham-Stob died aged 39 and was buried on 9 December 1839. She
was buried with her daughter, Emma and later with John. Therefore Emma had been
born in 1800. It would appear that Martha died from childbirth and their
daughter Emma then died a few days later.
Obituary: ‘Dec 6th. At Coatham-Conyers, in Stockton Circuit, Matha, the wife
of John Farndale. She was truly converted to God in the twenty sixth year of
her age; and from that period she was a consistent member of the Wesleyan
Society. Her death was rather sudden but she was found ready. Aware of her
approaching dissolution she said, ‘This is the mysterious Providence; but what
I know not now, I shall know hereafter.’ Some of her last words were, ‘Tell my
dear husband for his encouragement, that I am going to Jesus. How necessary it
is to live life for God? Oh Lord help me that I may have strength to leave a
clear testimony that I am gone to Jesus.’ It was enquired, ‘Do you feel Jesus
present?’ She replied, ‘Yes,’ and soon fell asleep in Him.’ MJ. (Methodist magazine, 1840, page 172)
