  • Archibald Knox and Buildings in Douglas
    14 ISLE OF MAN EXAMINER www.iomtoday.co.im Tuesday, June 18, 2019 BUILDINGS AT RISK Archibald Knox’s influence on buildings in the capital Here, in the latest of the Examiner Buildings at Risk series of features, Patricia Newton of the Isle of Man Natural History and Antiquarian Society is contributing two articles taking a look at what famous Manx Art Nouveau designer and artist Archibald Knox’s life and drawings tell us about the island’s built heritage. She finds that many of the buildings he chose to draw in pen and ink in Douglas have now gone or are under threat, but that more sites merit blue plaques to emphasise his connection to them than the two such plaques in place currently. uildings are not purely the pre- serve of the archi- tects who design them but have a living history in terms of who Bhas occupied them, who has portrayed them in pictures and the stories that they can tell. So what do the Kensington Art School, Balladoole Farm in Arbory, Old Laxey Bridge, the Trafalgar Inn in Douglas, Sul- by Mill, Knockaloe Beg and the Dawsey memorial in Braddan churchyard all have in com- mon, amongst countless other buildings and structures and localities, both identified and unidentified, in Ellan Vannin? The answer in this case is Knox, primarily Archibald of that ilk. The Archibald Knox Fo- rum – led by Chris and Mary Hobdell, and which follows on from the Archibald Knox Society established by the late Liam O’Neill – has identified many of the localities associ- ated with the great man in the Douglas area and organises guided tours around these sites.

  • ORANGE CCUN"^'' CALIFORNIA Genealogical Society DUMB CAKE (SODOAG VALLOO)
    cm OMU' t COWLEYS OF ARDWHALLAN An article on our family tree was published in the May and August 1988 issues of the journal and since then, through further research by Mrs. Lewthwaite from the Family History Society, we have been able to go back another generation to Patrick Cowleys' parents, Thomas Cowley and Alice Brew, who were married circa 1719 at Kirk Braddan. It seems Thomas was born 1698 and Alice 1700; records of their birth dates have not, as yet, been found. Thomas died in 1786 at the ripe old age of 88 and Alice in 1781 and both are buried in Old Kirk Braddan churchyard. There is a Deed of Settlement, of which a copy is shown. The birth dates of Patrick's brothers and sister have also been established (see revised family tree). The old land records are an essential resource in family research, in particular, for establishing the correct line. As a result of the journal article we have been contacted by two direct descendants of Denial Cowley (1813-1889), brother of Thomas Cowley (1802- 1874): Gail Longwith of Douglas and Robert Christian of Liverpool. Danial married Elizabeth Cannell (see photo), and Gail is a descendant of Elizabeth Cowley, eldest daughter of Danial and Elizabeth. Robert Christian is a descendant of Margaret Cowley, fourth daughter of Danial and Elizabeth. Margaret's son James, emigrated to Liverpool to Join the police force and all the family eventually settled there. Neither Robert nor Gail were aware of each others' existence, until quite recently. In particular, Robert was extremely pleased to see the photo of his great grandparents, which is a contribution from Gail.

    library & archive Service archibalD Knox (09.04.1864 – 22.02.1933) From manx SchoolmaSter to liberty’S DeSigner This guide has been revised to mark the 150th anniversary of Knox’s birth at Tromode on the outskirts of Douglas. Knox was educated in Douglas and whilst a pupil teacher also attended the School of Art. After gaining his Art Master’s Certificate he taught at Douglas High School where the headmaster and amateur archaeologist Rev. John Quine encouraged his interests. He became fascinated by the Isle of Man’s ancient Celtic and Norse carved crosses. Their complex interlace patterns were to remain a seminal influence for the rest of his life. Knox left the Island to teach in London between 1897 and 1912; during this period his association began with the London Department store Liberty & Co. which specialises in exclusive designs for an upmarket clientele. The Manx Museum has an extensive Knox collection including original designs and examples of jewellery, fabrics, papers, Liberty ‘Cymric’ silverware, ‘Tudric’ pewterware and also a large number of watercolour paintings, very much the product of his native landscape. Towards the end of his life, living and working once more in the Isle of Man as an art teacher at Douglas High School Knox was in great demand locally as a book illustrator and designer of illuminated addresses and public memorials, examples of these commissions are held in the Museum’s collections.

  • Callows Family
    -30- , ... ^4.(■f ,i**-. iffi CALLOWS OF CROIT ROIE 1720--1948 The history of a Callow family, originating in the early 18th century from a small land liolding known as Crolt Roie in the northern part of Lonan parish. Isle of.Han, is well documented through wills and land records. Their history illustrates in an intriguing way, the consistency in which many Manx families up to the 20th century named their eldest sons after paternal grandfathers. It also illustrates the custom of Inheritance in the Isle of Man and elsewhere, where the eldest son was considered heir to his father's real estate. Croit Roie was inherited seven times by the eldest eon in the family .... a perfect succession- of alternating John and William Callows, this small farm, never exceeding 30 acres, was owned by eight generations of the family over a period of 268 years. William Nelson Callow, the family's 8th-generation owner, finally sold Orbit Roie in 1948. William Nelson Callow's son and his son's son still live on the Island and so the male line survives after 10 generations. William Nelson's son was appropriately named John Robert but-alas his grandson was not named in the traditional way-i.e. given the first name of William. The author, while researching this family for several years, was patiently anticipating an item for Ripley's Believe It or Not. However in the Isle of Man, as elsewhere, customs change and the old ways are forgotten. In 1715 John Callow and Margaret Joughin, both of Maughold parish, were married at Kirk Maughold.

  • Re St. Adamnan's Lonan [2021] EC Sodor 1
    Neutral Citation: [2021] EC Sodor 1 IN THE CONSISTORY COURT OF THE DIOCESE OF SODOR AND MAN IN THE MATTER OF THE PARISH OF LONAN AND LAXEY AND IN THE MATTER OF OLD ST ADAMNAN ’S CHURCH , LONAN (“O LD KIRK LONAN ”) JUDGMENT Introduction 1. This is an application by the Reverend Josephine Dudley, the incumbent of the parish of Lonan and Laxey and the Churchwardens of the parish for a faculty to permit the installation of new interpretive signage in connection with the ancient crosses stored in the building known as the “Cross House” or “Cross Shed” in the grounds of the 14 th century church of St Adamnan 1 Lonan, otherwise known as Old Kirk Lonan. The petition was objected to by Stuart Clague MBE, a parishioner and a member of the PCC, who made plain that he objected in his personal capacity. He did not choose to become a party opponent to the petition for the faculty, and accordingly it is technically unopposed, but in reaching my decision on the petition , I have nevertheless had regard to his written objections. Historical background 2. As mentioned above, the original church of St Adamnan dates from the 14 th century, but in 1733 the parishioners petitioned Bishop Wilson for a new church, on the grounds that the original church was inconveniently situated. The new church was built and consecrated a century after the approach to Wilson. Although it is irrelevant for the purposes of this judgment, it should be noted that the new church was closed in 2014, leaving only the Miners’ Church in Laxey and Old Kirk Lonan to serve the united benefice of Laxey and Lonan.

It seems that once more we will have to return to writing about the weather and the diseases that have attacked College, for the War as a subject of inspiration for Editorials, has ceased to exist. At the beginning of term the only form of exercise avail- able was snow-fighting ; towards the end of term, the Sports were constantly interrupted by wind, rain and German measles. It is several years since Easter has fallen during term. A short voluntary service was held each evening in Holy Week, and on Good Friday, in the absence of the Lord Bishop, who was unhappily indisposed, we were fortunate in having the Archdeacon to deliver the addresses at the Three Hours' Service. In the evening, the choir gave a rendering of Maunder's " Olivet to Calvary." On Easter Sunday the Chapel was tastefully decorated. We take this oppor- tunity of thanking all who helped to make this week an inspiring one. National Savings have now come to College, and although their reception has not been enthusiastic, it is to be hoped that the number of subscribers will increase snowball-wise.

Talbot wherein he makes reference to a “review” which appeared in the same newspaper some months ago;—of Mr W.H. Gill’s Manx National Songs & of Mr A.W. Moore’s Manx Ballads—and points to myself as the writer of the review in question. I asked my friend if he or anyone knew anything of my feeling in Manx matters could possibly suspect me of writing that review graceless ungrateful and spiteful as I recollect it to have been? My friend answered that he had certainly “set it down” to me. It appears then that it is possible to be so misunderstood. Consequently I take the liberty of asking you to receive this letter as an absolute denial of my having written the “review.” I know nothing of the authorship of it. If I found out who wrote it, & it turned out to be a friend of my own, the discovery would cool our friendship. I have done nothing but rejoice over the publication of the Manx National Songs; and doubly so over the success with the people. As a Manxman I feel myself under a debt of gratitude to yourself Mr W.H.
