Sangar

Rev George Sangar, vicar of Carlton, was curate to Mr Barlow for the 3rd service – 1871 & 1877
He was curate in Stokesley before becoming vicar of Carlton in 1865.
In 1877-9 Sanger replaced the old church at Carlton, described by Ord in 1848 as a “singular and extraordinary structure”, with a sturdy Norman-style tower and a thatched nave and chancel “little better than a shepherd’s hut”.  He drew up his own plans, directed the work, was his own “contractor, clerk of works, master mason and foreman carver” [Fairfax Blakeborough].
It was opened in Mar 1879, and in Oct 1881 was destroyed by fire.  The villagers suspected the vicar of arson, and although the Stokesley magistrates threw out the case, the Archibishop of York suspended him for five years for a supposed ecclesiastical offence.  He remained in the parish, ostracised by his parishioners.  A week before his death, the Carlton blacksmith pinned up a farewell note from Sanger to his parishioners in his shop, and many villagers went to make their peace with him before his death.  When Canon Kyle was appointed to the parish as his successor the Archbishop of York advised him, “You will have to exercise the highest form of charity – that is, charity to the uncharitable.” [A Prospect of the North York Moors by Harry Mead]

Sayer

The Sayer family of Rudby were descended from a junior branch of the Sayers of Worsall, who had held that manor from the C14 and were noted recusants.  In the mid C17, John Sayer of Rudby married a granddaughter of Francis Sayer of Yarm.

Entries in the parish registers for the Sayer family begin before 1600, and continue for eight generations into the early C19, becoming a very widespread group, splitting into a large number of different families.

Descendants of John Sayer were recusants in 1691.  In 1745 Joseph, Thomas & James Sayer refused to abjure their faith but agreed to abide by the anti-papist laws.  Thomas was still a recusant at his death in 1789.  Thereafter there are no references to Catholicism among the Sayers of the North Riding.  Edward Sayer 1823-97 was the first to leave Yorkshire, going to London in 1837.  His great-uncles James and William were among the last Sayer burials in Rudby, dying in 1815. [‘The Sayer family of Worsall’ by J P Sayer]
It is however possible that there were later Sayer burials, unrecorded by Mr Barlow
