Biography

Gregory (George) was born about 1600.

Biographical Sketch

Quote from the book called: EARLE OF ALLERTON TOWER. by T. Algernon Earle.[1]

Among his unpublished Manuscripts at the British Museum (Harl. MS. 2161, p. 205, 58) there is a pedigree, given in the Appendix, which states that ROBERT EARLE of Stockton, county Cheshire, "descended out of the North of England," had two sons, John and George [Gregory ?].
II. The younger, George [Gregory ?], had a son, Peter, minister of Northwich in 1660; which Peter, grandson of the first Robert in the pedigree, had, as we shall presently see, also a brother John, a brewer at Warrington.
Holme's pedigree makes no mention of Peter's brothers, John and Thomas, who were living at Warrington ; and he would seem to be incorrect in giving their father's name as George, for among the registers at the parish church in Warrington there are several entries I take to be of this family:
  1. 1625, Nov. 20th. John, son of Gregory Karle, baptized.
  2. 1625-6, March. John, son of Gregory Earle, buried.
  3. 1626-7, Feb. 20th. John, son of Gregory Earle, baptized.
  4. 1632. March. Peter, son of Gregory Earle, baptized.
  5. 1633. March. Adam, son of Gregory Earle, baptized.
  6. 1634. June. Adam, son of Gregory Earle, buried.
In each instance the name of the father being Gregory, and there is no entry in the registers of any Earle called George. Possibly the letters of both names being something similar, it may be an error of abbreviation, or of a copyist ; but this Holme was notoriously slovenly.
Gregory Earle died, according to the register, in 1650.
