NOTES: "Information on the 18th Century Escotts of Kittisford, Carhampton and Huish Champflower comes from theParish Registers, Land Tax Returns and documents relating to Middle Brown Farm in Huish Champflower originally belonging to the Escott family of Carhampton. These docs show that Benjamin Escott of Kitswall, Carhampton 'was possessed of the messuage farm or tenement ..... for the residue of a term of 1000 yrs which commenced 20 Oct 1737'. Land tax records don't show an Escott at Middle Brown Farm until 1783 - but the doc was principally recording an agreement made on the 6th Oct 1783 between 1.

William Bucknell of Huish Champflower, gentleman, 5. Giles Escott and William Edmonds. It appears that Benjamin Escott sold the farm to the last three parties listed and that his son Thomas Escott, after his marriage to Betty Grant, was to receive the rents and profits of the farm during his lifetime. This would also pass to his widow and children. Circumstantial evidence suggests that Benjamin Escott of Kitswall was he who was buried at Carhampton, aged 84 on the 31st July 1800.

BENJAMIN 1716: Information on the 18th century Escotts of Kitswall, Carhamption and Huish Champflower comes from the Parish Register entries, Land Tax returns and a very interesting and informative series of documents relating to Middle Brown Farm ("Deeds, Middle Brown Farm in Huish Champflower - originally belonging to the Escott family of Carhampton, 1818-1885 housed in Somerset County Archives - ref. DD/CCH/53/3).These Middle Brown documents show that Benjamin Escott of Kitswall, Carhampton "was possessed of the messuage farm or tenement... for the residue of a term of 1000 years which commenced 20 Oct 1737."
