Kirkby Ireleth is now known as Kirkby in Furness. Most of the villagers worked at the slate quarries.Next villages are almost "joined on" - Broughton West, Dunnerdale and Seathwaite. Thomas Dixon,29, lived in 1851 in an area of Kirkby Ireleth known as Kellet Ground with his wife Mary,22,-daughter, Ruth 3 months and in-laws - John Lewis,54, - wife Ruth ,48, - bro-in-law Joseph,13,- sis-in-law Ann 8 and sis-in-law Ruth,2 weeks. Next door but one ,at area of High Beanthwaite ,is Thomas Dixon,widower ,65 with daughter, Elizabeth,30 and what are (I believe ) at least 2 illigitimate grandchildren ! namely John ,4 Elizabeth ,4 - and also 1 year old Hannah ( the name of Thomas's late wife)and born in nearby Ulverston. If anyone can help with any details of this family I would be grateful, especially Hannah's maiden name.Thomas and Mary were my gr.gr.grandparents,- John and Ruth and Thomas and Hannah my gr.gr.gr.grandparents.
