  • The Story of a Man Called Daltone
    - The Story of a Man called Daltone - “A semi-fictional tale about my Dalton family, with history and some true facts told; or what may have been” This story starts out as a fictional piece that tries to tell about the beginnings of my Dalton family. We can never know how far back in time this Dalton line started, but I have started this when the Celtic tribes inhabited Britain many yeas ago. Later on in the narrative, you will read factual information I and other Dalton researchers have found and published with much embellishment. There also is a lot of old English history that I have copied that are in the public domain. From this fictional tale we continue down to a man by the name of le Sieur de Dalton, who is my first documented ancestor, then there is a short history about each successive descendant of my Dalton direct line, with others, down to myself, Garth Rodney Dalton; (my birth name) Most of this later material was copied from my research of my Dalton roots. If you like to read about early British history; Celtic, Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Normans, Knight's, Kings, English, American and family history, then this is the book for you! Some of you will say i am full of it but remember this, “What may have been!” Give it up you knaves! Researched, complied, formated, indexed, wrote, edited, copied, copy-written, misspelled and filed by Rodney G. Dalton in the comfort of his easy chair at 1111 N – 2000 W Farr West, Utah in the United States of America in the Twenty First-Century A.D.

  • THE CHILD MARRIAGE of RICHARD, SECOND VISCOUNT MOLYNEUX, with SOME NOTICES of HIS LIFE, from CONTEMPORARY DOCUMENTS. by T. Alger
    THE CHILD MARRIAGE OF RICHARD, SECOND VISCOUNT MOLYNEUX, WITH SOME NOTICES OF HIS LIFE, FROM CONTEMPORARY DOCUMENTS. By T. Algernon Earle, and R. D. Radcliffe, m.a., f.s.a. Read 5 th March, 1891. MONG the many interesting documents in A the muniment room at Croxteth, is a copy of a curious Case and Opinions, dated 12th July, 1648, relating to a contract of marriage, made when under age, by Richard, afterwards second Viscount Molyneux, and the Lady Henrietta Maria Stanley, daughter of the seventh Earl of Derby. Inasmuch as this gives an interesting statement of the law governing such contracts, and is a contemporary commentary on a custom, at the time it was written of frequent occurrence and long standing, it seems to be well worth recording at length. Of these " Child Marriages," Strype says in his Memorials (b. ii, p. 313), that " in the latter part of " the sixteenth century the nation became scan- " dalous for the frequency of divorces, especially " among the richer sort, one occasion being the " covetousness of the nobility and gentry, who " used often to marry their children when they " were young boys and girls, that they might join 246 Richard, second Viscount Molyneux. " land to land ; and, being grown up, they many " times disliked each other, and then separation "and divorce followed, to the breach of espousals " and the displeasure of God." Instances in our own two counties are numerous enough ; and, strange to say, the first Lord Moly- neux was in early life contracted in marriage to Fleetwood, daughter and heiress of Richard Barton, of Barton Row, co.

  • The Military Career of Richard, Lord Molyneux, C
    THE MILITARY CAREER OF RICHARD, LORD MOLYNEUX, C. 1623-54 J.M. Gratton, B.A., M.Ed. Although it is indisputable that James Stanley seventh Earl of Derby was widely regarded as the major Lancashire royalist, especially in the first and third civil wars, in terms of activity and enthusiasm for the Royal cause, two other Lancashire personalities deserve more attention than they have hitherto received - Sir Thomas Tyldesley and Richard Lord Molyneux. Of these two prominent Royalist leaders Tyldesley figures far more amongst both contemporary observers and later commentators.' In contrast Lord Molyneux has remained a shadowy figure. Virtually nothing is known of his character nor how he was regarded by his contemporaries.2 Furthermore most secondary accounts have failed to document in full the contribution Molyneux made to the Royalist side in a career which saw him rise to the rank of brigade commander and led to his fighting as far north as Cumberland, as far south and east as Brentford and as far west as Montgomeryshire. The Molyneux, primarily yet not exclusively Roman Catholic, had emerged by the seventeenth century as the second most important family in Lancashire, second only to the Stanleys. When James I introduced the new order of baronets in 1611, Sir Richard Molyneux of Sefton was the second baronet in all England. Sir Richard was created first Viscount Molyneux of Maryborough in the Irish Peerage in December 1628. In the same year he was Deputy-Lieutenant of Lancashire but noted as a recusant and non- communicant. The First Viscount was one of only two Royalist gentry in the county who held an important office of state between 1625 and 1645 being Receiver-General of the Duchy of Lancaster.

  • MOLYNEUX of UPHOLLAND and AINTREE
    MOLYNEUX of UPHOLLAND and AINTREE Introduction This account begins with Edward Molyneux (1856–1922), a hay and straw merchant of Aintree, near Liverpool, husband of Ellen Ledson (1857–1928).1 Edward Molyneux was born at Melling, a farming township adjacent to Aintree: he was a son of William Molyneux (1824–1877), a plasterer (originally from Orrell, near Wigan) and his wife Charlotte Lloyd. William Molyneux’s parents were John Molyneux (1799/1800–1858), a nail-maker from Orrell and his second wife Margaret Hurst. John Molyneux’s father was Peter Molyneux (c. 1761–1830), an Orrell collier. ************************************************************** ORIGINS It seems likely that Molyneux is a locative family name originating in France, perhaps from Molineaux sur Seine, near Rouen. The family is now found most commonly in south-west Lancashire ‘in all classes of society, from the highest to the lowest’.2 The clear descent of this Molyneux family begins only with Peter Molyneux, an Orrell collier (c. 1761–1830). The evidence of family Christian names suggest that Peter may have been the son of John Mollineux, a collier of Whiston (Prescot parish) and his wife Catherine, born on 1 March 1766 and baptised at Prescot on 23 March.3 Thomas Molyneux There is a possible line of descent from Thomas Mullineux of Ditton (in Farnworth chapelry, Prescot), whose son Thomas was baptised at Farnworth on 24 October 17144 and/or from Thomas Molyneux, a claypotter of Eccleston (Prescot) who married at Prescot in 1734/5. Thomases were baptised at Prescot as follows: sons of ‘John Mollynex, Whiston’ (31 December 1665); of ‘Henry Mollineux, Prescot’ (3 December 1674); of ‘Richard Molineux, Whiston’ (28 June 1691).

Important changes took place in the mid 18th Century with the turnpiking of the highway from Liverpool to Warrington (Dickinson and Dickinson, 1968). The opening of the Liverpool - Manchester Railway (L&MR) in 1830 led to Rainhill being developed as a residential area. Of most historical significance, however, was probably the choice of Rain- hill as the venue for the locomotive trials to decide the type of engine which would operate on the new railways that really put it on the map. Today the village still retains most of its historic character. The railway line is still opera- tional and an exhibition in memory of the Trials is housed in the village library. The skew bridge taking the former turnpiked Warrington Road over the railway is also still intact. In recognition to its special architectural character and historic significance, part of Rainhill was designated as a conservation area where development control policies would seek to protect the essential character of the area (St Helens Council, 1976).

    Facebook Extracts – Feb 2019 Post #1: Anne Robinson How do I do a DNA profile for my Dad he is 83 and the only surviving male member of my family Response: IMFA Hi Anne, are you asking how to get him enrolled in IMFA's Mx DNA project? If so, Steve Mullinax, our current prez and our DNA go-to guy, can answer your question toot-sweet. His email address at IMFA is [email protected]. But I'm not sure that those Mxworld addresses are working any longer. If it kicks back to you, lemme know and I'll figure out another way for the two of you to touch bases. Response: Anne Robinson Yes he would love to be enrolled in the DNA project Response: IMFA Looks like the only way to access it is through our DNA page. You'll notice that annual digital membership is $10, but membership automatically qualifies you for a $50 subsidy towards testing on FTDNA (its a simple cheek-swab test.) ____________ Post #2: Anne Robinson Hello. My Dad Kenneth Charles Molyneux born 2.12.1936 Birmingham UK says his gg grandfather was called James but I can only find a Henry. Can anyone help?
