 | On the death of Sir Patricus Curwen, in 1669, without male issue, the baronetcy lapsed; he was succeeded by his brother Henry, at whose death, being childless, the manor and estates, by virtue of the settlement, reverted to another branch of the family, the children of Darcy Curwen, of Sella Park. |
| Curwen shewed the evils which this heavy duty caused to stock farmers, and the value of salt in rendering coarse food nourishing and preserving cattle from disease. |
| Curwen was formerly lieutenant in the 56th regiment; he is a J.P. and D.L. for Cumberland, and patron of four livings. |
