Note on Husband: John TITTERTON

From the Titterton family website: The life of John has been difficult to trace. His birth was not recorded at Grindon, nor was his marriage nor death. His existence is proved by bequests of one shilling from both his father and his mother. He inherted some property at Upper Elkstone, in Alstonfield parish, from his maternal grandfather John Billing. He seems to have set up home there with his wife, Jane Edensor of Hartington. They married at Hartington in 1733. They had three children John, Elizabeth and William, whose births are all registered at Alstonfield. Jane died within days of the birth William in 1739 and she is buried at Alstonfield. John with his young family seems to have moved back to Deepdale to live with his brother and sister-in-law, who were childless. John died in 1769 and was buried in Alstonfield with his wife and elder son John who had died aged 10.

 

John's only surviving son, William inherited Deepdale and, in memory of the mother he never knew, started a tradition still continued today of using Edensor as a christian name. (Go back)
