I hope I will have some more clues when I get that marriage certificate. There are
so many Emmotts in Cowling.
BBC history
"During the Norman time land was
given to the Emmott brothers as a
reward for their services to William
the Conqueror. A settlement developed
with Cowling Hill as its centre."
I have the Cowling Local History Society book,
Cowling: A Moorland Parish by Alec Wood. I should reread it for clues.
