Notes

1    Isaac was the second son of John Nicholson. (His elder brother John continued at Hollowstones?). It appears he may have gained the half tenancy of Randlehow  family through his marriage with Sarah Dickinson.

2    Marriage not in Eskdale register. not listed in IGI. However Sarah Nicholson of Randlehow died in 1835 aged '84'. Beloved wife Sarah mentioned in will.

3   All information originally from family tree received from Joan Shrewsbury

4    Made a will in favour of his wife Sarah, property to be sold and split between his children following her death.
