Wicklow, and niece and heir of Richard Hutchinson, of Knocklofty. Richard Hutchinson, in his will, dat. 4 Aug. 1757 (not proved), calls her his " beloved niece Christian Hely-Hutchinson," but she seems in fact to have been his grand-niece. V.G.

He names 3 sons and 9 daughters in his will, but does not mention Christian, but Elizabeth Hodson (above) mentions her granddaughter Christian Hely Hutchinson. (G. D. Burtchaell). V.G.
