 All born in Ballaugh

James Moughtin, (1791, Ballaugh - 14/2/1865, Jurby), a miller, marries Ann Cain, (1793 IOM- 30/12/1878, Jurby) on 3 June, 1815 at Ballaugh church;

John (1821), the twins Thomas and William (1827) and Robert Arthur (1830) emigrated to New York State.

John and the twins were tailors in the small town of Bergen.

John decided to become a travelling Methodist preacher in the area.

He then settled with his family in Rochester. Whether he still preached is not clear but he did establish a flourishing tailoring business on the main street in Rochester.

His American wife, Fidelia always called him the Rev. John Morton.  

Fidelia was descended from Nicholas Knapp born in 1592 in Wells-next-the-sea in Norfolk and emigrated with puritans in 1630. Fidelia lived to be 94 and a prominent person in Rochester.

The Morton burial plot is to be found in the Victorian Cemetery in Rochester, marked by a 23ft granite monument.

The twins spent all their life as tailors in Bergen.

They even died the same day aged 73 of pneumonia.

Thomas married Charlotte Tone whose brother died in the US Civil War.

Thomas's nephew was Frank Tone who was a founder of the Carborundum Company

Frank Tone's youngest son was Franchot Tone - the Hollywood 'Walk-of-fame' film star.

He was nominated as best actor in the 1935 film 'Mutiny on the Bounty'.

He also had four  wives - the first being Joan Crawford. 

 James Arthur Moughtin (1818, Jurby), a carpenter/ shipwright, marries Eliza Skillicorn (1816 or 1818-1842) on 20 May 1840 at St Philip's, Liverpool.

Eliza Morton age 26, died on 29th July 1842 of "inflammation of the bowels", wife of James Morton shipwright. John Skillicorn was present  at her death at Norfolk St, Liverpool; and notified the registrar. Norfolk St runs up from the dock road just north of Parliament St.

remarries - Sarah Johnson (1827 Liverpool) on 22 May, 1845) again at St. Philip's Liverpool;  

Sarah’s elder sister and father were christened at Eccleston, on the estate just south of Chester of the Duke of Westminster.  However, the original church was demolished by the Duke who decided it was not grand enough for his estate.  He built another on the same site in 1900. However one wall of the old Church still stands in the grounds.

The Cheshire Records Office has the baptism record of Sarah’s older sister Esther in 1823 as well as her father’s baptism record from 1793.  William Johnson was a farmer in Eccleston, probably a tenant farmer on the Eaton estate.

In 1793 there were only 5 baptisms in the Eccleston Church. It must have been quite a privilege to be recorded in the Church which was probably why William took several of his children to be baptized there after he moved to Liverpool.

their children are James (21 January 1846, Liverpool), Mary (1848), William (1849-1853), Walter (1855), Sarah (1862, West Derby)

Here is the family tree which originates from James’ brother, Walter (1855) - thanks to Don Lawson, of Toronto.

James Moughtin  (21.1.1846 at 14 St Anne Street, Liverpool ), a bootmaker/shoemaker, marries Sarah Ann Haigh (1850 Liverpool) in 1874 at St. Philip’s Church;

their children are James (1874), Sarah (1879), Thomas (1882), Alexander (1885), Benjamin twin (1/4/1887), William twin (1887 -1890), John  (1890), Margaret (sb1891), Walter (1887),
