Anne Gammell

Rev James Gammell 1826 - 1899

It was in Outwood, where he (JAMES STEWART GAMMELL) ...married and where his four children were to be born. He was married in Outwood Church, just six years after he went there in the summer of 1866 to ANN BRAMLEY, second daughter of Henry Alcock Bramley and his wife Elizabeth (nee Cooper) of The Haugh, Silcoates, Yorks. Henry Bramley and his wife are both buried in the churchyard at Outwood, and the East window, and the one immediately next to it, form a memorial to them, given by their four children, one of whom was of course Ann Bramley/Gammell. This family of Bramley was an old established Yorkshire family, based on Addington, near Skipton, where Ann was born on May 9th 1841. Ann's grandfather had been Mayor of Leeds in 1806/7.

James and Ann had four children as follows:

Sydney James b. 25 June 1867 25 February 1946 Elizabeth Marion b. 1871 d. 20 December 1959 Jessie Bertram b. 1872 d 31 December 1874 Rosamund Alice b. 1875 d. 1964

all born at Outwood, while their father was Vicar there.

James Stewart was buried in the churchyard of St. Palladius, the church he had built at the gates of Drumtochty. His wife, Ann decided to leave Scotland, and take up residence with her brother, a bachelor, and Canon of Lincoln Cathedral. This brother, Canon Henry Ramsden Bramley lived at Nettleham Hall, just outside Lincoln. Ann died at Nettleham in the summer of 1916, just a year after her brother, with whom she had lived for close on seventeen years. The carriage and pair in which Ann and her brother used to drive around Lincoln, was reputed to be the smartest turn-out in town, and the coachman's buttons, complete with crest and coat of arms are still in the possession of Sheila Gourlay.
