Narrative and Notes

Lancelot MACHELL was baptized in October 1618.

He married Agnes DENNISON, the daughter of James and Margaret DENNISON of Whinfell, probably in the 1640s or 1650s.

According to the Machell family tree, his children were: Agnes (about 1658), Jennet (?), Leonard (about 1678), Mary (about 1680) and Margaret (about 1685). Agnes approximate birth date of 1658 seems too early, but until the original sources can be checked this is the only source available.

Lancelot was listed as a Recusant in 1640, 1674, 1678, 1691, and 1696.

He died in January 1702 at Whinfell.

Other information:

The Machell family tree consulted states that Lancelot was confirmed by Bishop Leyburn in 1678, however it also states that his son and three daughters were confirmed in 1687.
