[See Hutchinson’s ‘History of Durham,’ vol. ii. 703, account of the
Gilpins, from a paper in the hands of Mr Rob. Sober of Sherburn, near
Durham, without date.—Randall MSS. The last George, at the time of
making out Sober’s pedigree, is said to be living, and owner of the
ancient house of the Gilpins, Kentmere Hall.]
Turning to _Dr Richard Gilpin_, I have had two elaborate pedigrees
(of descent) entrusted to me, by the former of which, it appears our
Worthy had a very large family by, (as I understand,) his two wives.
By this also I find that his second wife was born ‘Oct. 15th, 1625,’
eldest daughter of William Brisco of Crofton—her name Susannah. I have
a suspicion that the first Mrs Gilpin died at Greystoke, and that the
Doctor re-married before leaving it; but owing to the time-worn state
of the Greystoke ‘Registers,’ all the entries that remain concerning
Dr Gilpin’s family are the two children given in our Memoir. Following
William and Susannah were, 1. Isaac, born July 12, 1658; married
Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Clagget. Then, 2. Susanna, born Nov.
27th, 1659; married Matthew Parlis, minister. [The former Susannah must
have died as a child.] Then, 3. Anne, who married Sawrey of Broughton
Tower, Esq. [On this marriage, see Barnes’ ‘Memoir,’ as before, pp.
142, 143.] She was born December 5th, 1660. Then, 4. Elizabeth, born
Aug. 3, 1662; died unmarried. Then, 5. Richard: died of a blow of his
schoolmaster. Then, 6. Mary, born Dec. 28th, 1666; died unmarried.
Then, 7. Dorothy, born Aug. 13, 1668; married, (1.) Jabez Cay, M.D.;
(2.) Eli Fenton. Then, 8. John, born Feb. 13, 1669. [More of him
immediately.] Then, 9. Francis, born July 27, 1671; ob. infant.
Then, 10. Bernard, born Oct. 6, 1672, died in his youth at Jamaica,
unmarried. Then, 11. Francis, born Jan. 27, 1675, died in infancy.
Then, 12. Thomas, born July 27, 1677, died unmarried, June 20, 1700.
Returning upon John, [eighth of this list,] he married Hannah, daughter
of Robert Cay, Esq.
