Notes

High Head is also called Ivegill and is in the Parish of Dalston

There is (was?) a High Head Castle formerly occupied by a family called Richmond and this may be the source of the name of the child baptized as Richmond Barker Blaylock.

Richmond went on to marry another Dinah but at present this marriage has not been traced. The couple lived at Raughton Head and had children of their own which are listed in the IGI.
