Succumbed to the flu and recovering nicely but not posting for a couple of days or working very hard. Thank goodness for the flu shot as this wasn't too bad. The flu shot is a good idea I think; if you do succumb then it is usually mild in comparison to a full blown case.
I am working on the second large document for Routledge (and others) during the reign of Henry VIII. It too contains a goodly number of names and identifies father and son which is always a plus. Hugh the son of Jefrey Routledge is mentioned as well as Joke Routledge. Given that there were in 1604 a large number of Routledge families in the area (1604 Land Survey of Bewcastle)

Fathers are named as Adam, Allen, Andrew, Archibald, George, James, Jarret, Jeffery, John, Martin, Nicholas, Quintin, Richard, Robert, Rowland, Thomas and William. Thus yielding a total of 17 "father" names and the total list of occupiers (Routledge) is 52 (heads of household) in Bewcastle alone. Interestingly this reduces to 23 on the Protestation Returns in 1641-42 and this is generally all males 18 years of age and older.
What I do wonder is the document from Henry VIIIs time the tenants of Lord Dacre as well? That would make sense that the list is simply for the tenants of one of the particular land owners. More knowledge of the land ownership in Bewcastle and the tenants would be a useful acquisition perhaps in following the various Routledge lines at Bewcastle. My lines were of Oakshaw but also at Todhills, Broderigg, and Raw and others.
Another day on Routledge and then tomorrow I shall return once again to my Blake wills.
