CARLILE OF
CARLISLE
John
Sawyers and Hannah Carlile were married in 1784 at St Cuthbert, Carlisle. Their
marriage entry in the parish register states that Hannah was a minor and had
the consent of her father Joseph Carlile.[1]
Hannah, daughter of Joseph Carlile of Blackwell Wood was baptised at St
Cuthbert in 1764.[2]
Joseph Carlile and Mary Robinson, widow, were married at St Cuthbert in 1761.[3]
John
Robinson of Blackhall Wood was buried on 24 September 1760.[4]
His will, dated 17 September 1760 and proved on 25 October 1760, mentions his
son William (an infant), daughter Mary, and wife Mary. John’s wife was to be
guardian to the children as long as she remained a widow. If she remarried,
then Robert Longrigg of Low Burnthwaite and John Bewley of Raughton were to be
tutors and guardians to Thomas’s children. Two of the witnesses to the will
were Thomas Carlile and Joseph Carlile. The probate documents give the ages of
the children as nine years or thereabouts for Mary and one year or thereabouts
for William.[5] In
January 1762, it was stated that John Robinson’s widow Mary had married Joseph
Carlile and the guardianship of the children was passed to John Bewley and
Robert Longrigg.[6]
Two
possible baptisms for Joseph Carlile are in 1728 at Great Orton, son of Thomas
and Anne, and in 1737 at St Mary, Carlisle, son of Thomas. The Joseph baptised
in 1737 appears to have died as a bachelor in 1781,[7]
so the 1728 baptism at Great Orton seems the most likely candidate for the
husband of Mary (Bewley) Robinson. The parents may be the Thomas Carlile and
Anne Bewley married at Dalston in 1724 or the Thomas Carlile of Cummersdale and
Anne Blaine of Orton who were married at Great Orton in 1709. The latter Thomas
may be the one of Newby, Carlisle, whose will dated 1741 mentions his wife Anne
and daughter Mary Tiffin but no other children. One of the men who took the
inventory was a Joseph Blane.[8]
