DEATHS.
On Thursday last, Mrs. CROZIER, at an advanced age, sister of the late Dr. CROZIER, of London—a lady of immense property, by whom several persons in this county are likely to benefit. [This death notice was retracted in the following week’s paper.]
On Wednesday morning, in Birkett's Lane, Castle Street, in this city, Esther MOORE, aged 13 years. The Correspondent who communicated this death bears testimony to the worth of the deceased, and how well she was worthy the imitation of her schoolmates in Abbey Street.
On Thursday last, in Rickergate, very suddenly, Mrs. Ann CHESTERS, wife of Mr. John CHESTERS, hatter, aged 37 years.
A few days ago, at Pooley, near Penrith, Mrs. BEWSHER, at an advanced age.
Last week, in the Newtown, near Whithaven [sic], suddenly, Mr. Thomas PICKTHALL, joiner, aged 48.—At Great Braithwaite, near Keswick, Mrs. WALKER, wife of Mr. Joseph WALKER, aged 47.—At Swinside Lodge, near Keswick, Mr. William TOPPING, clerk of Buttermere chapel, aged 82.
At Lowdore, in Borrowdale, Mr. John SIMPSON, aged 69.
At Priestside, on the 3d of June, after a lingering illness which she bore with that resignation which distinguishes the real Christian, Helen wife of Mr. John NICHOLSON. Her death will be severely regretted by all who knew her.
On Tuesday last, the 4th inst. Mr. Joseph COWEN, of Biglands, in the parish of Aikton. He was found dead in his bed.
On Thursday last, Mrs. CROZIER, at an advanced age, sister of the late Dr. CROZIER, of London—a lady of immense property, by whom several persons in this county are likely to benefit. [This death notice was retracted in the following week’s paper.]
If I am right, this refers to Miss Elizabeth Crozier of Greenbank, Dalston who actually died in 1822. One of her (then) death notices said that she died possessed of an immense fortune. That included £40K in government stocks, property in Dalston, property in Caste Sowerby and property in London – possibly inherited from her brother the said Dr Crozier who had been a naval surgeon.
The beneficiaries of her will were six nephews and nieces. Three of them were baptised as NNN child of Joseph Crozier [her brother] and Margaret Henderson late Cartmel [meaning I believe that Miss Cartmel married Mr Henderson and then “shacked up” with Mr Crozier.
One of these three was another Joseph who used the name Henderson at least until 1816. He bought The Riddings Threlkeld (where he had been schoolmaster) and was the father of the legendary hunting man John Crozier (who built my house in memory of his wife to provide a home for Threlkeld village schoolmasters)

DEATHS.
Thank you, Stuart! Have you done any digging around your house, or in the fireplace in search of Crozier treasure?

Not in the archaeological sense (nor much other either) though I have been round with my dowsing rods.
Was able to trace the old drainage system – from before we went on mains drains – but have not found anything exciting.
The house is only 130 years old and its site had been a simple roadside field, actually beck-side too. Construction typical of many houses in the village about that time: Towse Yat stone (Skiddaw Slate) under Borrowdale slate roof and with Threlkeld granite quoins.
It was home to four schoolmasters and their families – we know of everyone who has lived in the house and several of their descendants visited when I was writing its history. In 1975 it was sold when the then schoolmaster built a house for his retirement and moved out, but that saga is a long story. We are the second private owners and have been here for 25 years.

Stuart,
Researching your home can be just as interesting as your family!
I didn’t know the types of stone had different names and origins. Now you have pointed me in a new direction…..I am curious to know more about Catgill Hall in Egremont, where the Reveleys lived.

Actually Towse Yat is the name of the quarry or more precisely the gate (yat) in the fell wall just below it.
Skiddaw slate is one of the main rocks of the Lake District and Borrowdale slate (more properly Borrowdale volcanics) are the rocks to the south of us. The dividing line is just across the valley of the Glenderamackin and runs across the middle of Derwentwater.
I am being chased out of my chair by my grandchildren (who are visiting over Easter) so that they can go to bed.
