This links up with marriage 20 the family at the mill. The children of this family were obtained a few years ago from John Lyth then residing in Lealholme, a much appreciated piece of information. They were able to erect a headstone in memory of their parents in St. Anne's churchyard which provided useful information too.

The names of the godparents were not on the list but came from U.P.R. and one of a number of slips of paper within it. No others are known. However two more items appear namely Ann marries Joseph Harrison 3341 son of Ambrose 334 in the Harrison story. This marriage took place at Ugthorpe on July 9th 1845. she predeceased her parents, having died on February 29th 1848. Margaret died a spinster ? on July 3rd 1852. Thomas, the father died on January 19th 1853 aged 75, and Margaret the mother on April 29th 1859 aged 82. The old man therefore was born in 1778 but in spite of all the facts, his parents can only be guessed.
Almost as a postscript comes the wedding of John Lyth's grandfather John who married Margaret Ann Readman from whom, no doubt, came the family names, probably her own grandfather and her great uncles and aunts.
Looking back, there are two generations absent, the second and the fourth. The people are there yet the vital connecting links are not. Very likely some will find their way into the following accounts. Whether the missing U.P.R. baptisms and the absence of pre-1813 material relating to St. Hedda's Egton Bridge would have provided what was required, it is idle to speculate. A plan of Ugthorpe's New Chapel of Father George Leo Haydock opened on Palm sunday 1810, shows not only the layout but also the names of the parishioners in their respective benches! Strangely enough no ladies or young people are down but the heads of families. William Readman Shorfoot, Thomas William. James and Matthew are the Readman members of the congregation. The Thomas could or could not be from Stonegate. The plan will be included in the appendix.
The recusancy of the Stonegate Readmans is confirmed by the Ugthorpe Easter Communion lists which have already been of great use. Jane is named in 1781, and Mary of Greenhouses as well. By 1788 Elizabeth and Mary are at Shorefoot, John at Biggin Houses but there are none at Ugthorpe itself. The EIlerby Readmans are still there, marriage 23 relates to one of them. Thomas and John of this family are listed in 1795 together with William, Thomas senior, Jane Sara, Jenny, Thomas, Mary, William senior, Joseph, Matthew and Thomas junior who is entered as from Shorefoot. It is not possible to separate them into families except to associate the two Thomases with Shorefoot. The pattern clarifies and extends as the years pass. ln 1800 Williams senior and junior appear at Shorefoot with Thomas. A tailor Thomas is down and also William from Ellerby. The next five years show this family to include James, William, Matthew, George, Thomas and Jane. Joseph and Sara, marriage 18, appear in Ugthorpe with a Joseph junior, and there is a Jane married there too. Thomas senior moves to Ugthorpe in 1803 leaving Shorefoot to WiIliam and Mary and their son William. Thomas junior marries away apparently, and is noted in the Ugthorpe Old book, with a wife Elizabeth and children Elizabeth, Joseph, Jane, Mary and Thomas by 1811. The same source gives Martin, Ann, Jane and Elizabeth as children of Joseph and Sara, marriage 18, about the same time.
Ann Readman, married, is at Moorside 1807/08 and James and Elizabeth are at Biggin Houses in 1810. This is an instance of an earlier 'priest' marriage since the marriage in the parish church is dated the foIlowing day. The facts are James married Elizabeth Gallon in the Ugthorpe Chapel on November 23rd 1811 and Elizabeth Galillee at Lyhe the next day. This is the 29th marriage on the list. The change in the surname is peculiar and a similar one is suspected in the name Hestleton, Sara's maiden name above where it may be Heslop really. Elizabeth, Biggin Houses in not therefore James' wife. Thomas and Ann are at Ugthorpe Moor perhaps 'Fr. Postgate's' now the Hermitage, 1806, at Mickleby in 1810. This is marriage 23 referred to above. Agnes, probably from marriage 16, is at Ugthorpe in 1813 and moves to Stonegate in 1814. Sara is at Fr. Postgate's in 1813, Thomas is there in 1814 to be joined by Joseph and Elizabeth in 181?.
By 1820 there are several Readmans living in Ugthorpe parish whilst Roxby is seen to be the home of James and Elizabeth above. By 1825 it is discovered that the mill at Stonegate is the Readman home there. These occurences relate to Ugthorpe because a couple of sheets exist containing Egton information. One is dated 1826, the other is undated. Nothing of this nature after 1827 has been found and the reason is there too "Mr Woodcock was to leave on June 19th 1827 and go to Wycliffe....." It appears that Fr. Rigby succeeded Fr. Woodcock for Mr. Mackridge has a book 'The Real Doctrine of the Catholic Church by M. Rigby of Egton Bridge 1834', and the practice of recording the Easter Communions was discontinued. If Fr. Woodcok was in charge of both Egton and Ugthorpe up to his departure, it is likely that lists comparable to those of Ugthorpe were made for Egton but as yet they have not come to light.
The decision of Bishop Challoner that the oath incorporated in the Act of 1778 easing the burden upon papists, was acceptable, brought about the 'birth' of independent records but the fear of there use died hard, and did not finally disappear until 1837. That they are of consIderable help in revealing the family patterns has already been noted. The gap caused by the absence of the Egton lists and also the Smith Estate papers has been partially filled by the information contained in the schedule of sale of the Egton Estate in 1853. By correlating these facts about known farmlies the saga can be continued. No attempt to 'tie up' earlier and later occurences will be made without positive proof. Where evidence of continuity in any hamlet, village or homestead has been found, it will be used to build us the picture in that particular place. As to the recusancy of the parties on the marriage list, it would be safer to indicate the non papists but even this is too difficult since even the occasional appearance of a child of obviously papist parents in the parish baptismal registers is an indication of keeping the law, rather than one of the family being otherwise.
Continuity has been shown in the families living in Stonegate, Shorefeot, Ellerby, Ugthorpe village, Glaisdale, Murkside House and Roxby. Where members of families have moved to other places later on will be shown.

Matthew died on October 3rd 1810, aged 32
William twelve days later aged 36,
whilst Jane, broken-hearted lived until April 3rd 1811 aged 7O.

Whether accident or epidemic is not known, nor is any record of the marriage.
It seems likely that these events coupled with the legacies brought forward the marriages of the survivors, Thomas excepted. Again U.P.R. provides the relevant information:-

Mary the daughter? married John Chapman at Ugthorpe on October 26th 1811, three days after James, marriage 29 and five months before George, marriage 30, whose Lythe Marriage above took place six days after his Ugthorpe one, just like that of James referred to earlier.

Once more bereavement overtook the family for Mary died aged 24 on July 17th 1813.
Thomas must have been the eldest son for his marriage to Ann Shaw in 1801 number 23, shows his three brothers and his brother-in-law John. No second ceremony in this case has been found. The facts above and the known children of Thomas, James and George make possible a fair picture of the family about this time. The effect of the missing Ugthorpe material is clearly seen.

The godparents of 12 Joseph and Sara indicate a possible relationship as does John in 16 but as there is no mention of these names in the will above none will be assumed.
However, the family of Joseph and Sara merits attention in its own right. In among a spate of Readman marriages in the last decade of the eighteenth century taking place at Egton, they nevertheless lived at Ugthorpe. Unfortunately only the five middle children are on record and no identity numbers are used.
Perhaps three children precede

Elizabeth	b. 1/11/18103	Gpts. George Readman & Mary Gallon

and two children at least could follow.

Perhaps three children precede

14.	John	b. 24th June 1770	m. Eiizabeth Roe May 7th 1797 at Egton	d. 25/ 5/1845.

17.	Mary	b.	The children 17 and 18 are entered by conjecture
18.	Jane	b.	being godparents to Elizabeth 15's offspring.

It appears that John lived at Egton whilst William remained at Shorefoot. The children are:-

141.	Margaret	b. 25/ 2/1798	Gpts. William Roe & Ann Harrison
	perhaps three children precede
145.	Lucy	b. 6/8/1806	Gpts. John Harrison & Ann White

148.	Joseph	b.	conjecture from Godparents of Margaret 141's family.
14X.	William	b. 30/1/1814	Gpts. Henry Harrison & Sara Roe
14Y.	Mary	b. 6/3/1817	Gpts. John Roe & Ann Lawson

There were possibly eleven children in this family.

That of William built up piecemeal from births and deaths follows:-

161.	John	b. 1805	d. 9/ 8/1836 aged 31
	six children could precede
168.	Francis	b. 1815
	His chn.Wm.1848, Jno. 1850, Hen. 1851, Thos. 1853, Mgt. 1855, Jos. 1859.
169.	Jane	b. 14/10/1817	Gpts. William Lyth & Margaret Readman

Francis apparently married twice his first wife Elizabeth dying January 27th 1839. His second Ann was living in 1851 and a son John was married on February 12th 1870 to Margaret Pringle of whom was born a daughter Sara Jane on November 21st 1896. The post-1840 occurences are by no means complete and are shewn to indicate the Readman association with Shorefoot until the present century.The Readmans and the Lyths were close neighbours, living not merely on adjoining farms, but in adjoining farmhouses at the end of Shorefoot remote from Egton closer in fact to Ugthorpe.

	Matthew Readman m. Isabella Wood
Perhaps one child precedes
Mary	b. 16/ 5/1789	the first Readman entry in U.P.R. and therefore papist,
Elizabeth	b. 15/ 5/1791	these entries are endorsed 'Egton'
Matthew	b . 20/12/1793	twins
John	b. 20/12/1793
	Isabella died on September 20th 1795 (Egton Burials)

	John Readman m. Agnes White
Agnes	b. 17/10/1790	the second entry in U.P.R. likewise papist,
William	b. 10/10/1792	these entries are endorsed 'Egton Bridge'
Several children could precede
Mary	b. 28/ 2/1804	(Egton Baptisms)
U.P.R. show no further children of this marriage.

Another seemingly unconnected family is that of marriage 8:-

	John Readman m. Sarah Dowson
Mary	b. 17/12/1761	The remarks appended to Marriage 14 above apply equally
One child could precede to this one.		The entries are endorsed 'Murkaside'
William	b. 14/ 5/1766
John	b. 16/10/1768	Two childen could follow John.
Francis	b. 6/ 7/1775	One child could follow Francis
Joseph	b. 22/11/1773
	Sarah died at 'Morcaside' on September 21st 1824 aged 80.

The domicile 'Leaseridge' is placed with the family of marriage 13 although it may be misleading because it was where 'Mary Readman, widow,' died aged 70 on March 6th 1814. Numbers are used here because there is some continuity.

		Joseph Readman m. Mary Wedgewood
1.	Thomas	b. 26/ 7/1779
2.	Joseph	b. 11/11/1780
Two children could precede
5.	Lucy	b. 1785	m. Ambrose Harrison (see story) d.July 12th 1861 aged 76 EB Regs.
			Godfather to Wm. son of Joseph 2.
6.	Mary	b.	Godmother to Jane daughter of Joseph 2.
7.	Agnes	b.	Godmother to Thos. son of Joseph 2
8.	Elizabeth	b.	Godmother to Mary daughter of Thomas 1.

'Father' Joseph is very likely the quoit player who annoyed Rev. Jonathan Robinson. The children 5/8 illustrate the use of spiritual relationship to piece together in a family those who would not fit there otherwise. The families of the two sons follow:- Marriages 33 and 28 being concerned respectively.

Elizabeth the mother died leaving these children in the care of their father who himself died April 29th 1847.
Joseph and Elizabeth lived at Hollins, a farm a quarter of a mile up the hill on the Goathland road from Egton Bridge, the distance stated being above Bluebeck Farm not above the village.
The first half of the nineteenth century witnessed a considerable increase in population which at first spread locally and by its close spread to the ends of the earth. New Readman homesteads appear, several on the Goathland side of the Murk Esk. Ten years after his marriage to 26 Jane above, William Readman was at Boggle House. He was born at Ugthorpe in 1813, one of the years covered by the missing pages and is so unidentifiable. Even the fact that they were second cousins has failed to fit him in anywhere so no numbers are used. The family as discovered is:

		William Readman m. 26 Jane Readman		at St. Hedda's Egton Bridge on September 14th 1841
				by Fr. Wm. Parsons.
	John	b. 31/12/1841	Gpts. Richard Lyth & Ann Readman
	Elizabeth	b. 11/11/1843	Gpts. John Pearson & Esther Lyth
	Joseph	b. 4/ 5/1846	Gpts. Joseph Readman & Hannah Mary Readman
	Hannah	b. 4/ 6/1849
	Mary	b. 11/5/1851	Gpts. John Blackburn & Mary Harrison
	William	b. 15/10/1854	Gpts. Jane Readman, Richard Lyth & Jane Harrison
	William	b. 15/12/1856	Gpts. Joseph Readman & Martha Harrison
	Jane	b. 1858

Shortly after the birth of Jane the family moved to Dowson Garth where three homes nestle together almost directly opposite their old home on the other side of the river. This brought them into Egton parish. Their neighbours at this time were, strangely enough, another William Readman and his wife Mary who were both born at Egton. This could well be William 27, Jane's brother, but for the fact that 27 William married Helen Harrison daughter of Thomas Harrison 335 of Egton Banks on November 20th 1850 at Egton Bridge.It is presumed that William's first son William died in infancy. This illustrates a point brought out earlier in the text, namely the practice in some families of naming a child after its deceased brother or sister.
The marriage of Elizabeth on November 30th 1863 to Thomas Hutton of Glaisdale tells that by that time the family had moved again, this time to Midge hole Egton Bridge where 'Father' William died aged 79 on June 30th 1892. A death of a William Readman of Egton Bridge eight months prior to this date aged 37 fits the 'dead' infant above, so not withstanding the better records, the multidude of identically named persons in the same area is an increasing problem.
John, the eldest son married Mary Roe daughter of John Roe of Brockridge Glaisdale on November 28th 1868. The children, from the memory of William, one of them personally seen by the writer fourteen years ago at Billingham were:- Thomas and Eiizabeth, twins, Emma, Jane and the informant himself who was born in Billingham in 1883, his parents having left Grosmont after the closure of the ironworks. Hannah married Thomas Raw becoming the mother of John Edmund Raw, one-time councillor of Whitby Urban District Council and grower of giant gooseberries for the Egton Bridge Old Gooseberry Show, and Mary wife of 'Joiner' George Harrison one of Eskdale's renowned craftsmen whose assistence is hereby acknowledged gratefully.
To simplify the problem referred to above, and because there is no apparent link between the various families, the addition of a distinguishing letter before any number will be adopted as follows according to the district inhabited by the respective groups. S for the Readmans of Stonegate, F for those of Shorefoot, E for Egton, L for Leaserigg, and U for Ellerby and Ugthorpe. Applying this system, the story the Goathland Readmans can be continued, pointing out however, that those considered moved there front other regions.
Thomas L23 and his wife Ann were living at Hatton Close Goathland for at least ten years after 1851. He was born at Egton and Ann was a Hodgson born at Ugthorpe.
Their children were:-

L231	John	b.12/ 1/1838
L232	Joseph	b.24/12/1839
L233	Sarah	b. 1845
L234	Thomas	b.50/ 6/1845	Gpts. Fran. R.& My. Hodgson
L235	Francis	b. 22/10/1847	Gpts. Wm. Harrison & Ann Hodgson
L236	George	b. 28/11/1850	Gpts. John Harrioson & Sara Hodgson

Francis died for his name is omitted from the census return for 1851.
By 1861 Ann was a widow living in the same place with her spinster sister aged 63 named Elizabeth.
Green End had two Readman families between 1851 and 1861 namely John and Mary and later on, John and Elizabeth. Earlier on there was another, where the wife was a Readman. The first John could well be one of the twin sons of Matthew and Isabella of Egton,and he had a grown up family and grandchildren by 1851. ln the census of that year he enters his household in this manner:-

Matthew	b. 1821		Jane	b. 1844	grandchild
Thomas	b. 1833		Thomas	b. 1846	grandchild
George	b. 1836
Mary	b. 1838
John	b. 1841

The second John is U25 of the Ellerby branch of the family, which by 1861 was

U252	Thomas	b. 1850		U255	Ann	b. 1856	All these
U253	Eliz.	b. 1852		U256	Hannah	b. 1858	children were
U254	Mary	b. 1854		U257	Ellen	b. 1859	born Goathland.

Their home was called Holly Bank Head but was merely 19 Green End later.
It was F141 Margaret Readman married to Henry Harrison 775 who lived at Holm Hill where her two only children were born. (see Harrison Story)
Another family, Francis and Mary, lived on Braithwaite Row. He was probably the son of John and Sarah of Murkaside; and, by 1851 was a tailor aged 75 and his family, if any, grown up and away. Sarah a carpenter's widow lived at Addison Head with her 29yr. old son William. Coldarbor Cottage was the home of Philip and Elizabeth (marriage 26) with their son Francis and daughter-in-law Jane The old people and Francis were born at Egton in 1781, 1783 and 1816 respectively, Jane at Hawaker in 1823. The young couple lived first at Staithes where their first two children Ann b. 1844 and John b. 1846 were born and moved to the cottage the birthplace of Hannah 1848, Elizabeth 1850 and William 1851 in Egton parish. Here the Readman expansion continues for 11 William and Jane his wife married at Egton Bridge on July 8th 1847 live

111	Robert	b. 1/ 1/1848	Gpts.John Swales & Lucy Readman	Jane's maiden name

Returning to Hollins 22 John and Mary his wife are in residence. John and Mary Lyth were Married at Egton on 28th of November 1835 there being no record of an Egton Bridge wedding. Joseph Readman and Ann Lyth were witnesses. Mary was Q5 daughter of Richard and Esther. Ann was Q8 (see Lyth story) The children of the marriage were:-

221	Rebecca	b. 17/ 7/1836	Gpts. John Harrison & Hannah Readman	Prefix letter L to

John died on December 4th 1860, aged 48.
Meanwhile L21 Joseph married Amm-Mary Frankland and lived at Egton village. One child William is known who was born on June 21st 1852 having John Readman as godfather. It has already been said that F14 John could just as well have been given an Egton classification, but his son F14X William lived there all his life. He had two children only who died young, but he himself lived until April 3rd 1904 aged 90 surviving his wife Hannah (Welford) by ten years. For many years he brought up his nephew John who was born on December 11th 1845 in Goathland.
Another Ellerby Readman lived on Eskdaleside. He was U27 Matthew and his wife Hannah. His known children were:-

U271

James

b. 1848

U272

John

b.1852

U273

William

b. 1859

L21 Joseph, by the way, entered his niece L17 Susanna as his servant on the 1851 return. The same source reveals another family at Stonegate with no apparent connection with those already dealt with. It is that of Matthew and Isabella. The former was born at Egton in 1813 and the latter at Whitby in 1810. Their children are entered as

Ann	b. 1842		Margaret	b. 1849
William	b. 1844		Isabella	b. 1851
John	b. 1846

An identifiable family with the Readmans of Stonegate have moved to the Board Inn Lealholme Bridge. It is H64 William son of Thomas and Margaret. His wife is Ann who was born at Glaisdale in 1811. Their family was:-

Thomas and Margaret, have by this time changed their abode to Broad Carr Glaisdale, styling himself a tailor. 52 Joseph their son who is a widower shares their home with his son William aged ten.
1851 also finds U39 Matthew son of U3 George and Hannah (themselves still at Ugthorpe) living with his wife at Lealholme Bridge,as yet with no famliy. Their neighbours are two more Readmans, William bonn 1825 at Ugthorpe and Elizabeth his wife born 1827 at Whitby and John Frankland Readman born 1843 at Glaisdale, and George born 1850 also at Glaisdale their children. The other William was born at Ugthorpe in 1812 and his wife Margaret at Hinderwell in 1822 whose children are:-

George	b. 1845		Mary	b. 1849
Ann	b. 1847		James	b. 1851	and possibly others
There were others too by 1861 to William and Elizabeth immediately above as follow
Thomas	b. 1852		Ann Elizabeth	b.1858
Matthew	b. 1857		Hannah	b. 1860

A 'landed proprietor' named John Readman born Glaisdale 1798 and his wife Ann born 1805 in the same village resided in Lealholme Bridge in 1861 no family being entered. He couid be one of the 'three children preceding ' Mary daughter of Joseph and Sara but it is not certain.
Some of the difficulties in this story appear to be solving themselves even as it is being written. Pieces of the Jig-saw have quite unexpectedly slipped into position very helpfully. Because of this the enigma of Egton 'Hole' receives a little more light. Ann Readman of 'Hole' died aged 82 on February 25th 1840. Subsequent information shows she was the widow of Mathew so tying up nicely with marriage 21. HoIe and Midgehole are dwellings quite close together almost directly across on the other side of Butterbeck to the Delves. Both have been Readman homesteads. As John Readman 'de Hole' died aged 85 on October 3rd 1826 he may be Matthew's father and as William b. 1813's family ended up in the Hole, perhaps he could be the said William's grandfather. Marriage 8 gives Sarah Dowson as John Readmans wife. This is the Murkaside family already discussed and a glance at the listed children shows spaces for others. The question is, is John Murkaside and John 'de Hole' one and the same person? The reader may judge that for himself.
An earlier reference to the Readmans at Greenhouses is confirmed by this item from Egton burials "Joseph Readman R.C. Greenhouses, Chapelry of Glaisdale aged 66 on January 5th 1837." The reference was to Mary and the date was 1781. Joseph was born therefore in 1771 and the two may be brother and sister. Thomas Readman made his Easter Communion from Greenhouses in 1827. Maybe he is another brother. Marriage 9 at Danby a not unusual place for marriages from that area, points to a possibility of Joseph and Ann being the parents, but again there is nothing as yet to make it certain.
When mentioning Dowson Garth above the neighbours of William and L26 Jane were another William and Mary whose children were not given. This oversight is now remedied.

Thomas	b. 1852		Mary	b.1856
Elizabeth	b. 1854		Jessy Ann	b.1859
	and possibly others.

7 William almost confused with his namesake above, was, on the night of the census at Egton Banks, the home of his father-in-law having married his daughter Helen just four months previously. To complete the distinction the beginnings of his family foIlow.

As a matter of interest, the other neighbours at Dowson Garth in 1861 were Angus and his wife Mary who was born at Lythe in 1825. A stained glass window in St. Hedda's Church is her Memorial. She lived until the early part of this century. She (?)tres a photograph of the Guild of St Hedda taken on a Guild Walk about eighty-years ago.
Click! In slips another piece. " To Complete . " on the seventh line above is so soon to be rewritten as "To complete the identification....." They are one and the same person! His children at the top of the page were entered on his 1861 return whilst living at Dowson Garth. He and his wife were entered by his father-in-law, as head of the household of Egton Banks on the 1851 return, and the name Mary is either an error in transcript or a confirmation name. The noticing of the children's names and dates of birth in the Egton Bridge registers caused the penny to drop. Mary and Jessie Ann can now wear their 'noble' ancestral numbers G273 and G274 respectively.

The marriages of the female members of the farmily are noted:-

Margaret m. George Colson at Egton? before 1828.	These may have taken place
Dorothy m.William Pearson at Egton? before 1831	at Ugthorpe.
Susanna m. George Holmes at Egton? before 1834
Agnes m. Joseph Wilson before 182?

A number of male members of the family also married whose weddings are not listed.

No other Martin Readman except the son of Joseph and Sara has been recorded. The godparents of the children of Thomas and Elizabeth above show his brothers and sister (?), fitting him into the family of Joseph and Sara, fill in some of the gaps there (?)ing 24 on his wedding day, makes him born c.1800 so placing him just before Mary. Joseph and Matthew are others, but where they go in the family is not known, yet.
NO doubt further material will provide more 'missing' pieces as research continued, but at this time and place there is little remaining to relate about the recusant Readmans and their descendants. It is left to the living members of the families to link up their own knowledge of their immediate ancestors to what has been written above.
