They had a daughter Catherine, who married James Pattie a minister in the Catholic Apostolic Church, Newcastle 1873. They had three children. James died 1887 and Catherine 1930 in Southampton.
Hannah never married and lived with her parents. After her parents died she moved to Cullercoats and is shown to be a boarding house keeper, her only boarder was her sister Margaret (property owner, own means). Hannah and Margaret lived together in Cullercoats until they died, Hannah in 1905 (age 90) and Margaret in 1906 (age 86).
As far as we can determine, the Garthwaite family had their roots in Kelloe, where Joseph’s great grandfather James was born in1630. The first connection with Trimdon found was that of James’ granddaughter Mary who was the wife of the Revd. William Woodifield, Vicar of Trimdon.
