With the snow and icy keeping me indoors, I have once again turned my attention to my FANKLAND/FRANKLIN ancestors. On 21 February 1842, ANN FRANKLAND married MATTHEW DACRE, a widower, at Kendal Holy Trinity. The 1851 census shows them in Highgate, Kendal with three sons Robert (6), Isaac (4) and Richard (1). MATTHEW died in 1860 and ANN DACRE is shown on the 1861 census as a widow living alone in Finkle Street, Kendal. In 1871 ANN DACRE is now living at Bank Top, Holker with her son RICHARD aged 21. I have traced RICHARD, and also the elder son ROBERT, through subsequent census but I have as yet been unable to find out what happened to ANN DACRE after 1971. Can anyone help ? I would be more than willing to share information with any other DACRE researchers. Derek In snowy Nottinghamshire.
