Hello! I am doing genealogy research of my mother's family (Holmes) to surprise her for her 80th birthday in June. I have been able to find information indicating that we are related to Hugh Holme, who was known as The King of Mardale. I have found some fascinating stories about how he came to Mardale. I also understand the last male Holme (Hugh Parker Holme of Chapel Hill) died in the mid-1800s there. I would love any information and/or pictures you have about the Holme(s) family from Mardale.
Thank you so much! - Kathy Finigan
