Askham history "The Parish of Askham is situated in that district of North Westmoreland which formed part of the ancient kingdom of Cumbria, and therefore was subject to incursions of the Scotch, on whose claim to this part of the country a new light seems to be thrown by the recent discovery at Lowther, by the Rev. F.W. Ragg, of an interesting deed or charter, from Gospatrick, the probable ruler of the district in the reign of William the Conqueror. Whether the country did, or did not, belong to the kingdom of Scotland, it is certain the Scotch vigorously maintained their claim to it, which was as vigorously resisted, leading to much unrest and continual fighting in the disputed territory, in which Askham doubtless participated, as in the time of Edward III the country south of Penrith suffered very considerably for two or three years from an incursion of the Scotch, before they were again driven back across the Solway; and a reference to the Alien Rolls shows many "Scots" settled in the district.
My thanks are due to the Rev. Gage Earl Freeman M.A. for so kindly allowing me access to the Registers, to the Diocesan Registrar, and to others who have furnished me with information."
