2 Daughter of James Dixon of Wallend1
3 Received Stangs from his father but sold it to his brother Joseph in 1730. Bought Wallend from Agnes, daughter of James Dixon and amalgamated two other Wallend properties with it. 1
4 " (As at Stool End) there were four farms at Wall end at the end of of the 17th century. The surviving farmhouse, now the property of the National Trust, has a press cupboard with the initials RGIG and the date 1725. John Grigg's first wife Margaret [Dixon] had obviously died before her father made his will in 1723, and he must have remarried. The marriage has not been found, but the second wife's name was evidently Rachel or Rebecca. There is also a spice cupboard with the initials EGS for Ephraim and Sarah Grigg."
