Thank you so much for the information and leads ... I feel like I'm back on the "hunt" now to learn more! Much appreciated, Diane :-)

Diane, I've now found the will of Robert Hutchinson of Applethwaite, yeoman, dated 24.4.1820, Ref. R 515/120 No.7 at Lancashire Record Office, Preston, which mentions James.

Robert leaves Common to his son William, supervisor at Newark, Nottinghamshire, who is to pay out sums of £100 to each of his brothers and sisters from the estate. His sons Robert And Isaac are to have all his personal effects; son William is to receive £50; sons James, Christopher, George and daughters Margaret, Agnes and Mary to receive £10; £5 a year is to be paid to his sister Agnes, and the will also mentions his sister Ann's children.

Also, I made a mistake - the land tax was 1831, bit 1829.

Super! How exciting and thanks so much! I definitely need to pull out my Hutchinson research and pull together what I have with what you have found!

Without your thoughts and research -- I probably never would have gotten past James!

Diane :-)
