Dear Mike, I thought that you might like to have the following bit of information that I copied from a gravestone in Mitton churchyard.
Erected to the memory of Sarah the wife of John Charnley Esq. of Lancaster and daughter of the Rev.Thomas Armistead late vicar of this place.
With a calm and peaceful mind and a lively hope of a blessed Eternity did this resigned servant of Christ await her Masters summons. She departed this life April 24th 1829 in the 54th year of her life.
Also the above Captain John Charnley died Nov 15th 1834 aged 64 years.
Also their son Thomas Armistead Charnley died April 27th 1854 aged 42 years.
My Charnley ancestors come from the surrounding area so there may be a link.
Regards Sue Moorhouse.
