Journaling is from a relative via a genealogy site:I often wondered why the Cowling family left the beautiful town of Pateley Bridge to live in the Industrial city of Leeds. William lost his wife Mary in 1837, shortly after the birth oftheir third child. Times must have been tough, as it seemsa couple of years later William was caught poaching at nightperhaps to helpfeed his family. He was convicted and sent togaol for six months.The 1841 census indicates he didnt return to Pateley Bridge after release from imprisonment.
Instead he stayed with his cousin, Samuel Rowling, in Headingly, Leeds. Meanwhile, back in Pateley Bridge, his mother, Bella, who lived in Ivy Cottage, was looking after his two sons, John and David. By 1851, William had remarried and become established in Headingly as a builder; then his sons joined him.It must have been very different from life in the country, and sadly William died in 1858 at the age of 50. Our branch of the Cowling family never returned to live in Pateley Bridge.
I love heritage pages with a story to tell and you'e added meaning with the ivy as a symbol of survival.
 
What fascinating and intriguing family history. You fab art does have an English cottage vibe.
 
Great composition and the I love the way you formatted the journaling. The story itself is so sad.
