I presume you intended to directed your post to me? if so it might have been useful if you gave a little more info rather than just simply three surnames. (Which is why I set-up this simple website to promote exchange of data and to focus attention on places and approx dates.) Bernie, I humbly beg your pardon and the list's for my incredible lack of detail. I have no website, so here is my line. Gen I. Joseph COTTINGHAM and Jane ALDERSON of Swaledale- nine children: Mary, Jane, Dixon, Elizabeth, John, Esther, Miles, Margaret, and Anthony. Matthew METCALFE and Mary SCAR of Askrigg - five children: James, John, Mary, Elizabeth, and Isabella. Gen II. Dixon COTTINGHAM b Gunnerside,1803 and Isabella METCALFE b Askrigg,1812 were married in Askrigg, 1834 - six children: Matthew Metcalfe, John, Jane, Dixon, Mary and Joseph. Gen III. Dixon COTTINGHAM b 1840 and Barbara WHITE , 1842 were married in Wisconsin, 1861. - [Barbara WHITE was daughter to Thomas WHITE and Margaret COATES, b 1823, Crackpot. Thomas and Margaret were married 1841, Grinton.] - three children: Elma Mae, Elizabeth and Eva, all b in Iowa. Elma Mae COTTINGHAM and Frank Wesley LUKE, m Dubuque, Iowa, 1902 were my ggrandparents.
