Notes for Hannah SWINDELLS

Hannah was very beautiful, married the Rev. James Sumner, but sadly died at the young age of only 27, just five days after the birth of her third child, also Hannah. Regarding her education - Chapel-en-le-Frith is about 9 miles from Bollington so it is probable that she was a weekly, or even termly, border.

Notes for Revd James SUMNER MA

Thought not to be related to his contemporary Dr John Bird Sumner, Archbishop of Canterbury.
