The Nutter Families of Pendleside
Henry Towneley of Dutton Hall died 1645 married Alice Colthurst dtr of Abraham , gent, of Burnley. Their daughter Anne Towneley is shown in Dugdale’s visitations of 1644 as marrying Ellis Nutter of Waterside (by river at bottom Clitheroe Rd, Brierfield) Reedley. Upon the death of Alice Nutter’s grandson Henry Nutter, alias Hartley (illigit) his share of the Nutter properties descends to the Nutters of Waterside. The other Nutter properties descend through Henry’s sister Elen Nutter who married James Robinson. Their share possibly passed to the Robinsons of Dam head in Roughlee - probably where the Nutter home of Crowtrees was.
