1    A William Hall married an Elizabeth Dowson on the 30th of April 1696 in Middleton-in-Teesdale. There are no children for this marriage registered at Middleton-in-Teesdale

Mr. J. Angus was the eldest son of John Angus, second son
of Henry Angus, of Bow House. His mother was Abigail Hall, .
of Monkfield. Of her, it. is said, that when certain persecutots
came to apprehend her husband, she so ably vindicated him and
his dissent, that the leader, Sir. B. Fenwick, turned away, say-
ing, " Thou art a clever hussy, it is a pity thou shouldst be a
fanatic I" Her son Jonathan inherited her spirit and capacity,
for in 1715, he stood single and alone among the tenantry of Der-
wentwater, on the side of the House of Hanover, where the Earl
summoned his retainers to sustain the claims of the Pretender.
Mr. Angus had two brothers: 1st. William, who settled .in Sun-
derlani, but had no issue. 2nd. John, who became a Quaker.
He had also three sisters, but of them we know nothing. He
married Priscilla, daughter of his uncle George, of Newcastle,
and had by her seven daughters. 1st. Mary Soppit. 2nd. Han-
nah Hall. 3rd, Abigail Angus, second wife of "William, of Sty-
ford. 4th. Priscilla Surtees, Slaly. 5th. Deborah Angus, wife
of Jonathan, of Hindley. 6th. Kuth Robson, Yorkshire. 7th.
Catharine Leybourne. He had one son, Mr. s George Angus, of
Word,

This William is supposed to be the brother of Mrs. Abigail Angus, mentioned in
the succeeding page:- This Caleb was a
member of the church. He was probably the eldest son of Andrew
Jopling, of Satley. He had a son of his own name, who went to
London, and was hence called London Caleb. His daughter's
name was Mary, married to John Angus, of Dotland Park.
