  • Notes 
    • RESEARCH_NOTES:
      1. Christenings from Haydon Bridge (FHL film 991796) for children of Michael Mewis:
      -4 Mar 1699/1700, Isabell, dau. of Michael Muis of Chester Wood. [The entry is written twice. On the bottom of one page it is very faint and basically unreadable following the date of 4 Mar of the previous entry with no day given specifically for Isabell - hence it should be 4 Mar as if it were dittoed. It was written again on the top of the next page as if the curate knew he done a bad job on the previous page, but it is with no day given. IGI extracted it as 5 Mar, but I see no number 5 with Isabell falling between 4 Mar and 6 Mar.]
      -2 Feb 1700/1701, Isabel, dau. of Michael Mewis of Chesterwood.
      -25 Apr 1703, Jno., son of Michael Muis of Chesterwood.
      -24 Dec 1704, Catherine, dau. of Michael Muis of Chesterwood.
      -18 Feb 1706/1707, Michael, son of Mich. Mewers of Haydon Bridge.
      -27 Apr 1709, Tho., son of Michael Mewers of Haydon Bridge.
