Hi Nancy

It's Dorothy who has the Durham Bacons, not Barry!

There were Bacons in all the northern counties from quite early on. Some of
them (from Newton Cap, originally from Derbyshire) were minor nobility and
wealthy for a while until one of them gambled it all away. :-)
I have extensive details on this family, although they turned out not to be
my Bacons. I have traced them back to Joseph Bacon (b.1689, Harrington,
Cumberland), his son, Rev John Bacon (1754-1827 - vicar of Auckland St
Andrew & Escomb, and Kirk Merrington, DUR, and others). Rev John had two
sons, George and Joseph who both died young. George had a son, William,
(1812 - 1873) who became an Iron Refiner and 'Proprietor of Lands". He was
married to Jane Smith (groan...!) and had sons John George, William, Richard
and Arthur.

Do any of these names connect with yours?

Best wishes
Dorothy

Barry, since I also have Bacons from Durham, perhaps
our Bacons are the same. Can you give details?
