Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Registers of the Parish of Askham: In the County of Westmoreland From 1566 to 1821
There appears also to have been one pound left yearly for the parish clerk's salary. A Mr. Holme also appears to have left 40 shillings to the poor of Askham, which was distributed in 1737. Therefore it seems probable this bequest was from the rector of Lowther, who died about that date, and that he might belong to the Holmes of Askham.
