211	Andrew must have owned Cappard from the time of his father's death in 1793 until his own death c1800. If he could inherit in 1793, then he was of the age of majority (21 years or over). This gives him a year of birth of c1772 or before. Many pedigrees call him a son by the first marriage of his father; however I have not seen any evidence to support that. His admission as a Freeman is influential is ascribing him as a son by the second marriage.	Galbraith, Andrew 4th of Cappard, "a drunken and indolent young man" (I483)

She was well known throughout the district and was held in great esteem by a large circle of friends. Her husband died many years ago, but she leaves three grandsons, Messrs.

221	Anthony Ashley Cooper, the third Earl of Shaftesbury, lived from 1671 to 1713. He was one of the most important philosophers of his day, and exerted an enormous influence on European thought throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Shaftesbury received less attention in the twentieth century, but in the twenty-first century there has been a significant increase in scholarship on his work. Shaftesbury believed that humans are designed to appreciate order and harmony, and that proper appreciation of order and harmony is the basis of correct judgments about morality, beauty, and religion. He was at the forefront of developing the idea of a moral sense, of explicating aesthetic experience, of defending political liberty and tolerance, and of arguing for religious belief based on reason and observation rather than revelation or scripture. Shaftesbury thought the purpose of philosophy was to help enable people to live better lives. Towards that end, he aimed to write persuasively and for the educated populace as a whole, deploying a wide variety of styles and literary forms.

227	Approaching the Port of Liverpool, navigating the sand banks, shifting sands and the powerful tides of the Irish Sea, Liverpool Bay and the Mersey Estuary has always been a hazardous undertaking. The 19th century witnessed the significant development of Liverpool as a port of international standing, and consequently to be a pilot was an extremely well established career. The pilots of the Port of Liverpool, as in other ports of the world, were employed to meet and take charge of the navigation of the vessel, ‘well to seaward’ of the bay and river estuary. The pilot provided essential knowledge in navigating sand banks and channels, and manoeuvring vessels through the complex dock system. Outward bound ships would have required the presence of a pilot for the same reasons.	Hughes, Thomas Master pilot in Liverpool (from Amlwch, Anglesey, Wales) (I45)

Joan Cooke married to Thomas Clowdisley in (apparently - need to see original source) 14 Sep 1607 in Norfolk ( which date fits with the baptism of daughter Lucy in 1608 at Cley Next the Sea), then it might appear that the above Joan Fairfax married as a widow to Thomas Clowdisley.
