Hi there, Excerpt from the Leeds Intelligencer Newspaper 1789 "This Farm is situate at Upper Thowthorpe, alias Thornthorpe, in Marton Lordship, about ten Miles from York, five from Easingwold, and held by a renewable Lease for Three Lives, under the Archbishop of York, at the annual reserved Rent of Ten Pounds, and pays a Composition of 6s. 8d. Yearly, in Lieu of all Tythes." This excerpt was from the following link; http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~dutillieul/ZOtherPapers/NewLI10Mar1 789.html The following link also has some interesting reading on the area, including Marton Lordship, relating to boundary stones etc. http://apl385.com/gilling/history/chapt10.htm This next link shows Easingwold in the present day. As you can see, the only remaining 'part' of Marton is now Marton Abbey and Marton in the Forest. My guess would be that the area originally came under a Lord's jurisdiction, presumabley Lord Marton and he owned the surrounding land. Hope this helps http://www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap.dll?grid2map?X=459640&Y=468800&arrow=Y& zoom=5 You can zoom in a little further on this map and there is a 'very small township' at Marton in the Forest including Marton Grange.

Is it possible that "Marton Lordship" should probably read as "Marton Township"? I have just checked my Genealogical Gazetteer of England and it shows:- "Marton township parish Bridlington E.R. York Marton township parish Swine E.R.York Marton township parish Sinnington N.R.York." There is also "Marton in the Forest. N.R. York. 5-3/4 miles se Easingwold. Marton Le Moor chapelry parish Topcliffe N.R. York".

Hi Sandra, Thanks very much for the link. I've searched through the CHIPPENDALE family on the website and there are certainly people there from the right place. It's just that the names don't tie up, so I probably need to get further back to find the tie-in.

Before the days of the National Health Service, (post WW2) when people had to pay for medical treatment, the workhouse infirmary was often the only place where the poor could get free medical care. It was not unusual to have a spouse in the workhouse and another outside. If they were old or weak themselves, it was often not possible for them to care for sick relatives at home - particularly if the home did not have heating, running water etc. or if the illness was infectious or contagious. What did your g grandmother die of? Is that a clue to why she was there. Anne Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
