During the time the Wilsons lived at Orgate, this sad mention of Orgate appeared in the Marske register:
1786. May 8. A child of Chr. Tideman’s, just removed from Jinglepot to Orgate, between 3 and 4 years old, stray’d from his father’s house and was found dead on Marske moore. – The child followed its father to the moors and was lost. They searched in vain all night, and found it dead next morning. The poor child had taken its clogs off and tried to go to sleep. Mr. Hutton remembers the incident.
