  • 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.

  • T He H Eraldand G Enealogist
    A BIBILOGRAPHICAL AND CRITICAL ACCOUNT OF THE THREE EDITIONS OF WATSON’S MEMOIRS OF THE ANCIENT EARLS OF WARREN AND SURREY. _______________ BY JOHN GOUGH NICHOLS, F.S.A. ______________ [Extracted from THE HERALD AND GENEALOGIST.] 1871. WATSON’S EARLS OF WARREN AND SURRY. 193 One of the most remarkable genealogical works produced in England during the last century, both for the purpose and intent of its production and the labor and sumptuousness of its execution, is Watson’s History of the Earls of Warren and Surrey. It is embellished with every illustration, armorial, monumental, and topographical, of which the subject was capable: and further decorated with countless number of ornamental initials and vignettes (generally arabesques of considerable elegance) all impressed from copper plates. The detached engravings, more than fifty in number, are described in the full account which Moule gives of the book in his Bibliotheca Heraldica. pp. 441-445; but it is impossible to estimate the cost which must have been expended on so sumptuous a work. The author, the Rev. John Watson, M.A., F.S.A. had published a History of Halifax (4to. 1775) in which (pp. 523-525) he has given minute details of his own biography down to that period. He was born in 1724 at Lyme cum Hanley, in the parish of Prestbury, Cheshire 1; was elected a Cheshire Fellow of Brazenose 1746; became Perpetual Curate of Ripponden in the parish of Halifax 1754; F.S.A. 1759; Rector of Mouingsby, co.

  • Sir George Warren, Kb
    THE LAST OF THE WARRENS: SIR GEORGE WARREN, K.B. (1735-1801) Phyllis M. Giles The prime requirement of a landed family was a marriage which would ensure a legitimate male heir. The last two male heads of the Warren family of Stockport and Poynton strove to secure these objectives, yet eventually Sir George Warren's plans were to end in failure: he had no son. In addition to the dynastic problem, the life of the last of the Warrens reminds us of other dimensions to marriage and family obligations: romantic attraction, marital harmony and disharmony, wealth and social status, and the incidence of mortality. All these issues are to be found among the concerns of historians of the eighteenth-century landed family. I Sir George Warren was to be the last male representative of a very ancient line, which had held the manors of Stockport and Poynton in Cheshire, and the Lancashire manor of Woodplumpton, for just over 400 years at his birth. 1 The ancient patrimony had been extended by the marriage of his great-grandfather John Warren to Ann Cooper, heiress of the manor of Goosnargh in Lancashire. Even more recently, his grandfather Edward 'Dinklcy' Warren in 1678 brought the manor of Salesbury and Dinkley and other neighbouring lands in Lancashire into the family, by his marriage with his first wife, the heiress Dorothy Talbot. The family also 48 P. M. Giles owned the Lancashire manors of Over Darwen, Carnforth and Brockholds, together with extensive estates in Lancas­ ter, Overton, Poulton, Heaton, Torrisholmc, Quernmore, Wanton, Pool, Higham, Chipping, Newsham, Gale, Barnsholme, Clayton-en-le-Dale, Livesey, Ribchester, Button and Billington.

  • 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).

  • Warren Family
    A HISTORY AND GENEALOGY OF THE WARREN FAMILY IN NORMANDY, GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND, FRANCE, HOLLAND, TUSCANY, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ETc. (A.D. 912-1902) WITH NUMEROUS PEDIGREES BY REV. THOMAS WARREN F. R. S. A. IRELAND "Those who do not look upon themselves as a link connecting the past with the future, do not perform their duty to the world."-DANIEL WEBSTER PRINTED FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION £All riglzts reserved] A HISTORY AND GENEALOGY OF THE WARREN FAMILY To THE ~IEMBERS OF THE VARIO US BRANCHES OF THE ANCIENT AND NOBLE FAMILY OF WARREN AND THOSE RELATED TO THEM BY THE COMPILER THOMAS WAR REN PREFACE SOME years ago, having retired from professional duties owing to failing health, I began to trace my own family pedigree, without any intention of writing a book; but finding the study of Genealogy so fascinating, I was led to extend my researches to other branches of the old and honoured name of Warren. The materials I have collected, after long and arduous labour, are considered by friends to be worthy of record as well as useful and interesting, not only to those of the name and kindred now living, but important as a basis to work from for others who may afterwards wish to enter upon this field of research and add to the information already acquired. Hence the volume now submitted to my readers. In this work, which has been to me a labour of love, I have received much sympathy and valuable assistance from members of this great and widely-dispersed family, to whom I return my grateful thanks.
