Dear Hap:

William Farrer in his *Records of Kendale* Vol II, page 266

*The mesne manor of Farleton appears to have been given by Thomas de
Bethum in the time of Henry III to his daughter, Eleanor, who held it
in 1254. It appears to have passed to Eleanor's sister, Hawise, the
wife of Thomas Banastre of Bretherton, co. Lane., who had received a
considerable maritagium in Beetham. Thomas Banastre their son, was
father of Adam Banastre, whose daughter Katherine married John de
Harrington, younger, of Farleton in Lonsdale. Lands in Farleton in
Kendale were held by a local family. The first was Thomas de Farleton
in the reign ot John and the last was Ralph de Farleton, named in
1349, who had a daughter Cecily, named in 1352. Ralph appears to have
alienated his lands befole 1343 to John de Harrington, younger, named
above, son of Sir John de Harrington of Aldingham. The younger John
died in 1359 seised ot the manor.*

Cheers,
Dix Preston
