[The pedigree of the family of Ashton, or Assheton, of Middleton, is
given in Baines's _Lancaster_, vol. ii. p. 596., which states that
Ralph Ashton, Esq., M.P. for Clithero, temp. Chas. I., for the county,
16 Chas. I., died 17th Feb. 1650, married Elizabeth, daughter of John
Kaye of Woodsome, co. York. In old documents Isabella and Elizabeth are
used for one and the same name.]
_Christopher Hervie._--M. ZACHARY (Vol. ix., p. 184.) obligingly replies to
my question as to the quotation--
"One while I think, and then I am in pain,
To think how to unthink that thought again."
Would he be kind enough to say where I may find any notice of Christopher
Hervie? as I have been unable to find mention of him or his work in any
biography to which I have access.
