Narrative and Notes

John KENDAL was a farmer and yeoman of Low Oaks, Marthwaite, Sedbergh, Yorkshire.

He married Dorothy SCONCE in 1797 and had 12 children.

A probate record, containing an administration bond, dated 27 Mar 1844 exists indicating that he died in 1843/44 at Low Oaks, Marthwaite.

His brother Robert lived at High(er) Oaks, suggesting that their father split the farm called Oaks, where he died in 1813, into two or more farms.
