Administration within the Diocese of Chester issued to Elizabeth AISLABIE of Kirkby Stephen, Widow, on 6 June 1822. In the Consistory Court of Chester on 14 June 1822 Elizabeth AISLABIE took the oath of an Administration and further swore that the personal estate of the Intestate within the Diocese of Chester was under �20 and that he had no further effects within the Province of Canterbury. On the same day, Elizabeth AISLABIE, Richard Mercer PARRY of Liverpool, Book keeper, and Robert DAVIES of Liverpool, Butcher, bound themselves in the sum of �24 to the Lord Bishop of Chester against an obligation on Elizabeth AISLABIE to provide an inventory of the goods of Richard AISLABIE by 14 December 1822. [Documents held by Lancashire Record Office in Preston] [Richard Aislabie was born in Bowes, Yorkshire, in 1774 and ran the Eden Hall Academy in Kirkby Stephen: see www.researchers.plus.com/aislabie.htm. Where he died is unknown but he seems not to have been buried in Kirkby Stephen. He possibly died in Liverpool, which he visited regularly in order to recruit pupils. The effects covered by the Chester Administration could be the personal possessions he travelled with; alternatively, they might have been held by his agents in Liverpool. One would have expected Aislabie also to have had effects in Kirkby Stephen but no corresponding Administration has been found in either the Diocese of Carlisle or the Province of York.] Thomas ATKINSON, late of Rusmickle in Lyth, Heversham Parish, Husbandman - Will dated 15 Sep 1812 - friends to invest moneys: Thomas HARRISON of Kirby Kendal - Surgeon, Robert TURNER of Raw in Lyth, yeoman - loving wife- Jane - three youngest children: Jane the wife of Robert PHILIPSON in Lyth, Husbandman; Sarah the wife of John CLARK of Hood in old Hutton, Husbandman; Thomas ATKINSON now or late of Oa?????, near Blackburn in county of Lancaster, officer in the Excise. - executor - son John ATKINSON witnesses: Thomas ROBINSON, Ellinor ROBINSON.
