Fourth Generation  

12. John ROUTLEDGE [1580] (Richard³, David², Richard¹) was born in Jun 1835 in Parton Cumberland England and died in Wokington Cumberland England.

General Notes: Anthony Bishop said:
The Routledge family are an old Border Clan, who originated in the Bewcastle area of Cumbria. I can trace John's ancestors back to a Richard Routledge (b1731) of Irthington, which is about 8 miles from Bewcastle. Richard's wife was Margaret Latimer, and they married at Kirklinon on the 12th April, 1764. The Latimer's were an old Kirklinton family, and a common family name was Hugh. Therefore it would seem likely that there may be a connection with Bishop Hugh Latimer.

• Residence: 26 Bolton Street Parton Cumberland England.

• Occupation: Engine Fitter.
