William & Margaret (DIXON) HUTCHINSON & Their 11 Children

William & Margaret (DIXON) HUTCHINSON & Their 11 Children
August, 2013, Rhonda Cundy to Carolyn Kellogg
 
What am I doing?  Well, for the most part, I've been sitting in my cool study writing, researching and pondering both our lives at present and the past lives of various folks in my family forest. Yesterday I learned that, in 1892, my maternal birth great grandparents (Andrew SHOOK and Mary HUTCHINSON) built the house in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, which has been restored and now serves as both the Judy Garland Museum and Grand Rapid's Children's Discovery Museum.  Garland, born Frances Ethel Gumm in 1893, was raised in this house.  On view today are the blue dress and red shoes Judy wore as Dorothy in The Wizzard of Oz.   Quite quaint, wouldn't you say?!
 
More sobering was a series of discoveries about my birth great-great grandparents, William & Margaret Hutchinson and their children.  They were farmers, as were a number of my Canadian ancestors, who lived near Toronto — in Chinguacousy Township, Peel County, Ontario.  Both were born in the north of England: William in Yorkshire and Margaret in Cumberland.   
 
Below I'm giving you my rundown of the Hutchinson children's vital stats, a few of which are still missing.  The accounts we've all heard such as  "Oh, you know, children didn't used to live so long" took on a far deeper, wrenching meaning for me as I unearthed these facts.  Their mother died at 43, surely with a heart broken long before her death.   
 
Vital Statistics for the eleven HUTCHINSON Children of William HUTCHINSON* and his first wife, Margaret DIXON ** — all born in Chinguacousy Township, Peel County, Ontario, Canada
 
1  Infant  1846-1846  under 1 year
2  George 1845-18461 year
3  John   1847-1851  4 years
4  Thomas  1849-1849  1 year
5  William  1850-1858  8 years
6  Joseph  1852-?
7  James  1854-1885  31years
8   Mary1856-1895   38 years (buried in Grand Rapids MN)
9   Infant1858-1858  under 1year 
10 Margaret 1859-1897 38 years (buried in Grand Rapids MN) 
11 Edwin  1863-?
 
* William: b. 1819, Yorkshire, England –  d. 1889 Chinguacousy Twp, 
Peel County, Ontario, Canada
** Margaret: b. 1824, Caldewgate/Addington, Carlisle, Cumberland, England — 
d.  1868, Chinguacousy Twp, Peel County, Ontario, Canada
 
 
At present I'm working on learning more about Margaret Dixon's background and life in Carlisle, Cumbria, in the very north west of England—   just 10 miles from the Scottish border and around the corner from Hadrian's Wall — that is, before she left for Canada.  Clearly she was in Canada by 1846 since hers and William Hutchinson's first baby was born in Canada in 1846 when she was 22.  At this point in my research I find her at age 15 working as a weaver in the textile industry in Carlisle — thanks in part to a relatively legible old 1841 English census.  She was a part of that Industrial Revolution, I'm sure, during which a lot of jobs in old industries dried up.   At 15, she surely wasn't in school.  I'm not yet certain where William and Margaret met and married — England or Canada.  
 
I'm impassioned by this quest in my family forest!   Parenthetically, on Margaret's and William's page in the 1861 census of their farming community of Chinguacousy, Ontario, not a single person over 20 was recorded as being able to read or write, whereas everyone's children of school age were in school learning how.  Thinking of my acquired abilities and the opportunities which have been open to me for the realization my potential, I wonder what my great-great grandparents' hopes and dreams were for their descendants.  To ponder it brings tears to my eyes.  I wish they could have known me as much as I wish I could have known them.  However rough their lives were as farmers who created new communities, I do believe they had time and took time to dream.  We live and leave with our dreams, our imaginations.  In amazing ways we carry it all within us and, through us, to others.  It goes on.  It goes on — as we come and go.  
 
****************************************
Industrial Revolution  [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlisle,_Cumbria]
Carlisle continued to garrison soldiers becoming the headquarters of the Border Regiment, the city's importance as a military town decreased as the industrial age took over. In the early 19th century textile mills, engineering works and food manufacturers built factories in the city in the Denton Holme, Caldewgate [at 15 Margaret was in Caldewgate] and Wapping suburbs in the Caldew Valley. These included Carr's of Carlisle, Kangol, Metal Box and Cowans Sheldon. Shaddon Mill, in Denton Holme, became famous for having the worlds 8th tallest chimney and was the largest cotton mill in England.
