Anson ~ Third Generation
With variants ANSON, HANSON, HANSONE, HANSOM, HANDSOME, HANDSON, HYNDSON, HINDSON

    Family 1 - Thomas Hanson and Frances Farnham of Wetheral (generation 1)  
    Issue of John Handsome  
1.   Ann HYNDSON
"Ann dau of John Hyndson of Great Corby bap 26 Sep 1754" (ref Wetheral parish records)
Burial 27 Apr 1755 of Ann Hyndson, daughter of John, residence Great Corby (ref Wetheral parish records).		  
2. . Thomas HYNDSON
"Thos son of John Hyndson of Great Corby bap 24 Mar 1756" (ref Wetheral parish records)

Considerable research has gone into whether this Thomas Hyndson is the same as the one who married Elizabeth Jameson. A FamilyFinder comparison between Frederick Shade (descended from Frances Hanson below, who married James Little) and Rosemary Allen (descended from Thomas who married Elizabeth Jameson) did not come up with a positive result, but it is hoped that future DNA testing of other family members will prove positive. Because of the likelihood that this part is correct, I have added the descendants of that couple into the tree here. It can be altered later if a more accurate solution is found.

Thomas HANSON married 7 Mar 1791 at Saint Cuthbert, Carlisle to Elizabeth JAMESON (ref Ancestry, England Select Marriages, index).
The register (source unknown) shows they were both of the parish, bachelor and spinster, married by Banns on that date, witnesses Robert & Mary Bowman; all signed with their marks. 		 
    Child:  
  1. Thomas HINDSON born Durdar, Cumberland, bap 1793 at Saint Cuthbert, Carlisle, Cumberland
 
3.   John HYNDSON

    Issue of William Hanson  
1.   Mary HYNDSON

2.   John HANSON
Bap 4 Jan 1764 at Wetheral, Cumberland (ref IGI).
"John, son of William Hanson of Syke-Foot, baptised 4 Jan 1764." (ref Wetheral parish records)

There are several records relating to a John Anson (weaver of Stonewath) being a marriage on 27 Dec 1797 to Mary Winder (widow) at Wetherall; daughters Ann bap 1 July 1798 and Mary bap 18 Oct 1801, and a record of a Thomas, illegitimate son of John Anson, farmer of Cumwhinton, and of Mary Saunderson of Cumwhinton, being bap 20 Jan 1805. It is not known which of these relates to this John and which to the other on this generation, also from Wetheral.

I have placed these details below with the other John due to the reasons specified below. This may not be correct.		 IGI records
3.   Robert HANSONE
Bap 28 Feb 1768 at Cumwhitton, Cumberland, Robert Hansone, son of Wm. Hansone (ref IGI & Ancestry Select Births).

One of the Robert Hansons (see below) presumed to have married 29 Apr 1810 at Saint Cuthbert, Carlisle to Jane ASKOW (ref IGI); no children found; not found in 1841 or 1851 census.
 IGI records
    Issue of Joseph Hanson and Rachel Miller  
1.   Joseph HANSOM (1)
Born c1762 at Wetheral, Cumberland. Assumed to belong here though no age given on burial.
Died 1763. "Joseph, son of Joseph Hansom of Froddel-Crook buried 27 Jan 1763." (ref Wetheral parish records)		  
2.   Ann HANSON
Bap 25 Jan 1764 at Wetheral, Cumberland (ref IGI).
"Ann, daughter of Joseph Hanson of Froddell-Crook, baptised 25 Jan 1764." (ref Wetheral parish records)

Notes about children:
Assume that this Ann is the mother of Sarah.
"Sarah daughter of Ann Handson of Great-Corby illegitimate bap 24 May 1788" (ref Wetheral parish records)
It appears that Ann had a child with Walter DAVIDSON in 1798.
"George, illegitimate son of Walter Davidson, of Croftheads, in the parish of Arthuret, husbandman, and of Ann Anson of Cumwhinton, singlewoman, bap 17 Jun 1798." (ref Wetheral parish records)

Possible death in 1838.
"Ann Hanson of Cumwhinton buried 28th Feb 1838 aged 77." (ref Wetheral parish records)		 IGI records
    Child of Ann:  
  1. Sarah HANDSON bap 1788 at Wetheral, Cumberland  
    Child of Ann and Walter:  
  2. George ANSON bap 1798 at Wetheral, Cumberland
 
3.   Robert HANSON
Bap 20 Oct 1765 at Wetheral, Cumberland (ref IGI).
"Robert, son of Joseph Hanson of Great-Corby, baptised 20 Oct 1765." (ref Wetheral parish records)

One of the Robert Hansons (see above) presumed to have married 29 Apr 1810 at Saint Cuthbert, Carlisle to Jane ASKOW (ref IGI); no children found; not found in 1841 or 1851 census.		 IGI records
4.   John HANSON
Bap 21 Mar 1770 at Wetheral, Cumberland (ref IGI).
"John, son of Joseph Hanson of Great Corby, farmer, baptised 21 Mar 1770." (ref Wetheral parish records)

There are several records relating to a John Anson (weaver of Stonewath) being a marriage on 27 Dec 1797 to Mary Winder (widow) at Wetherall; daughters Ann bap 1 July 1798 and Mary bap 18 Oct 1801, and a record of a Thomas, illegitimate son of John Anson, farmer of Cumwhinton, and of Mary Saunderson of Cumwhinton, being bap 20 Jan 1805. It is not known which of these relates to this John and which to the other on this generation, also from Wetheral. However I am putting the marriage to Mary here because the 1841 census has John, daughter Ann and daughter Mary's daughter Sarah living in Kirk Linton which is where John's brother Nathaniel's son Joseph also was in 1841, a long way away from Wetheral. Or it all might be co-incidental.

Marriage 27 Dec 1797 at Wetheral parish of John ANSON and Mary WINDER; John was a bachelor, Mary a widow, both were of the parish, by banns, witnesses Henry Lambert, Thomas Halenas (ref Wetheral parish records).

Notes about children:
"Ann dau of John Anson, weaver, of Stone Wath, and Mary Winder bap 1 Jul 1798" (ref Wetheral parish records)
"Mary dau of John Anson, weaver, of Stone Wath, and Mary Winder bap 18 Oct 1801" (ref Wetheral parish records)

5.   Joseph HANSON (2)
Bap 13 Dec 1772 at Wetheral, Cumberland (ref IGI).
"Joseph, son of Joseph Hanson of Great Corby, farmer, baptised 13 Dec 1772." (Wetheral parish records)

Married (1) 28 May 1795 at Wetheral to Margaret ROBINSON.
"Joseph Anson of this parish, batchelor, married Margaret Robinson of this parish also, spinster, married 28 May 1795, witnesses George Hodgson, Jane Boumans." (ref Wetheral parish records)

Notes about children:
"Joseph, son of Joseph Anson of Great Corby, stone-mason, and of Margaret his wife (late Robinson), bap 3 Apr 1796." (ref Wetheral parish records)

Margaret died in 1797. "Margaret, wife of Joseph Anson of Great-Corby, stone-mason, buried 23 May 1797." (ref Wetheral parish records)

Joseph married a second time.
"Banns of marriage between Joseph Anson of this parish, widower, and Sarah Elliot of this parish also, spinster, were published on the three Sundays underwritten, 26 Nov 1797, 3 Dec 1797, 17 Dec 1797." (ref Wetheral parish records)

Joseph married (2) on 21 Dec 1797 at Wetheral to Sarah ELLIOT (ref IGI & Wetheral parish records).
"Joseph, widr, & Sarah Elliot, spinster, both of this parish, by banns, witnesses Peter Halsey, William Storrow" (ref Wetheral parish records)

Notes about children:
"John, son of Joseph Anson of Great Corby, stone-mason, and of Sarah his wife (late Elliot), bap 23 Sep 1798." (ref Wetheral parish records)
"John, son of Joseph Anson, stonemason of Great Corby, buried 18 Aug 1799." (ref Wetheral parish records)

"John, son of Joseph Anson, stonemason of Great Corby, buried 7 Feb 1805." (ref Wetheral parish records)

Joseph died in 1805. "Joseph Anson of Great Corby, stone mason, buried 15 Jun 1805 aged 32." (ref Wetheral parish records)
Only 2 out of Joseph's 7 children survived early childhood, and Joseph himself died very young. It remains to be seen whether all these deaths were connected by disease or genetic disposition.

Notes about children:

Bap 14 Feb 1775 at Wetheral, Cumberland (ref IGI).
"Rachel, daughter of Joseph Hanson of Gt Corby, labourer, bap 14 Feb 1775." (ref Wetheral parish records)

Notes about children:
It appears that Rachel had a child with William ROBLEY in 1800. There was a William Robley in Wetheral.
"Thomas, illegitimate son of William Robley, tailor, of Cumwhinton, and of Rachel Anson also of Cumwhinton, bap 14 Dec 1800." (ref Wetheral parish records)

Marriage 1 Aug 1811 at Wetheral of Rachel Anson to William Robley (ref IGI, listed as Nobley).
"Marriage between William Robley of this parish, batchelor, and Rachel Anson of this parish also, spinster, married 1 Aug 1811; witnesses Catharine Turnbull, John Hodgson." (ref Wetheral parish records). A similar late marriage occurred for Rachel's sister Frances in 1812, also witnessed by Catharine Turnbull.

"Ann, dau of William Robley of Cumwhinton, tailor, and of Rachel his wife, nee Anson, bap 24 Nov 1811." (ref Wetheral parish records)

"Rachel Anson of Cumwhinton, buried 1 Jan 1817 aged 41." (ref Wetheral parish records) It is curious if this is her that she was buried under her maiden name, but there is no other Rachel of the right age. 		IGI records

Bap 1 Mar 1781 at Wetheral, Cumberland (ref IGI).

It appears that Frances had a child with William ROBSON in 1806.
"Joseph, illegitimate son of William Robson of the parish of Dalston, stonemason, and of Frances Anson of Cumwhinton, bap 12 Oct 1806." (ref Wetheral parish records)

Married 18 Jan 1812 at Wetheral as Frances Anson to James LITTLE (ref IGI). This was curiously late given that the banns were published in 1808 and they had an illegitimate daughter, Margaret, in 1809. A similar late marriage occurred for Frances' sister Rachel in 1811, also witnessed by Catharine Turnbull.

"James Little of this parish, batchelor, and Frances Anson of this parish also, spinster, were married in this church by licence, this 18 Day of Jan in the year 1812 by me E. Stanger curate in the presence of John Coulson and Catharine Turnbull." (ref Wetheral parish records).
