In view of the "Important Announcement" above I hope to transfer this site after Christmas BUT I cannot guarantee that everything will transfer especially the message board so download whatever you think is important before I transfer Welcome to "Jake" Prescott's Martindale Mart I hope members will freely exchange information to assist themselves and others verify their roots in Martindale, a small community which includes the hamlets of Howtown and Sandwick on the south eastern [what was the Westmorland] side of Lake Ullswater. If you have an interest in the area please sign up as member and place your interests on the Message Board. I request that no commercial gain is made of these indices See Vision of Britain site for historic description http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/place/place_page.jsp?p_id=2460&st=Martindale Bear in mind that many Martindale folk made use of the "mother" church up the road at Barton especially for marriages even where both parties lived in Martindale.
