| | GENUKI: Marton |
 | | Captain Cook left a widow and family; on the former a pension of £200 a year was settled by the king, and £25 on each of the children. |
 | | Marton church, dedicated to St. Cuthbert (see Churches for photograph), is situated on rather elevated ground at the western extremity of the village, and is a small ancient edifice; the living is a vicarage, in the patronage of the Archbishop of York, and the Rev. Daniel Duck, is the incumbent. |
 | | This place with the cell of St. Hilda, at Middlesburgh, was given in the reign of Henry I. by Robert de Brus, to the abbot and convent of Whitby. |
