Note

The Halifax Antiquarian Society 1925 "Excursion to Ovenden" pag
e 93
"Samuel,the hier, succeeded in due course. He married at Illin
gworth Church, Sept 26, 1682, Jane, the daughter of John Brearcl
iffe, that valiant supporter of the Parliament who upon the arri
val of the Royalist forces at Bradford suddenlyremembered urgen
t business in Lancahsire."
"Heywood, to his entry of the marriage in his register adds th
e commenct, " to relations tho' for mainconsenting." T
hey had only been married between five and six years, when Samue
l Furness died, Feb. 20 1687-88, aged 25. The Northowram gossi
p adds to his entry of this death: "A young man dispatched wit
h intemperance." It would be interesting to know what degree o
f truth is contained in the frequentacid comments Heywood make
s on the lives of his departed neighbours. Did thestern Purita
n divine consider that every man who raised the golden goblet t
o his lips was treading the primrose path to the eternal bonfire
, or were these men reall the village Rochesters of this immora
l Restoration age?
SamuelFurness left three children. John, Joseph and a daughte
r Phoebe, who died attwelve years of age.
