[list-cumbria] Cumberland Pacquet - 8

[Nev Ramsden]

Diane,

I think it is most unlikely that the Editor will return to this family. 

At this time people appeared to have an interest in families that stood out from what was considered normal, such as size, age and in particular - multiple relationships.

Also Broughton in Furness was outside the area of interest for this paper.

Nev.

So multiple births to a single mum could still survive in these times!
Anything about these babies in future editions, Nev?

Whitehaven  - December 8 - 1774.





A few days ago the wife of a tailor at Broughton in Lancashire, was delivered of four fine children who are all likely to live. From the bounty of the many ladies and gentlemen who visit his habitation, it is imagined the father will collect a very handsome sum.
