• Notes

  The marriage of William Satterthwaite of Cragg and Agnes Braithwaite, daughter of William of High Wray, took place 19 November 1674 during the Monthly Meeting of the Quakers at the Town End home of his brother Edward. The register page of that meeting tells us that witnesses to the marriage included Regnald and George Holme (probably the George of Town End who died 1702), Edward (the brother), Charles, and William (another William) Satterthwaite, George and Brian Braithwaite (probably father and 24 year old son), Edward and Dorothy Beck (probably Edward son of William baptised 1652), Mary Walker (William and Agnes' grandson John married a Margaret Walker some 70 years later), Thomas Remington, William Sandys and James Fell. (Edwin Sandys, born in Hawkshead over a century earlier, as Archbishop of York endowed the grammar school in his birthplace; the widow Margaret Fell of Swarthmoor, who married George Fox, was one of the founders of the Religious Society of Friends, and became known as the "Mother of Quakerism"). There are multiple records of all of the births of the children of William and Agnes. These records include births specifically at Cragg, and Quaker registrations at both Hawkshead and Marsden Monthly Meetings as well as Quarterly and Annual Meetings. The dates and places of the familysearch.com index entries are, in some instances, of the meetings, not the births, so the dates recorded here for each child are for the records specifying Cragg. The date and place of their marriage was taken from an image of the Hawkshead Monthly Meeting record. It was also recorded at the Marsden Monthly Meeting. From the baptisms in Hawkshead Parish of children of Clement Satterthwaite less than nine months apart we know that in in the 1630s there were at least three fathers of that name. There are records for the baptisms in Hawkshead of four William Satterthwaite, sons of Clement(s), of an age to possibly have married in 1674. They were baptized in 1624, 1631, 1634 and 1649. The first three would have been in their mid to late 40s at the time of their marriage. The fourth Hawkshead baptismal record for William son of Clement is dated 3 Mar 1649. That William would have been 25 years old at his marriage to 24 year old Agnes Braithwaite, and I have selected the fourth William's birth date on that basis. After William built his stone house in 1695, there were six burials of a William Satterthwaite of Hawkshead (other than that of William of Beckside in Oct 1717) which could have been William of Cragg: 1699, Jun 1717, 1719, 1725, 1728 and 1730. These correspond to possible ages at death of William ranging from 50 to 81 years. None of these is listed in "Friends' Burial Ground at Colthouse". Per private communications (Ruth Satterthwaite of California, Peter Cox of England), "William of Cragg" is written in the original death record for 1719. William of Craff was imprisoned in 1665 and 1666 for refusal to take oaths and again in 1684 with his brother Edward of Townsend for refusing to answer upon each is a civil trial.
