Sponsors not recorded. Notes: By John Wilson. From Griffith's Evaluation: Henry N. Lowe County Fermanagh Parish Ennskillen Location: T/Enniskillen Darling St (T may mean Tempo.) (By 1881 the business was at 7 High St. and I think something may have been on Queens St.) In addition to my family records and Edna Quinlan's, I have info on those of the family who died in Enniskillen from Cardinal Dundas' Ennikillen, Parish and town (1912), from the Ennsikillen parish church graveyard list. This church is now the Church of Ireland cathedral, St. Mcartyn's. Henry Nathaniel b abt 1837 based on age of death, family records have him b 1837 or 1838. d 24 Feb 1905, Clonmel, Co Tipperary, at age 65, of heart disease, after a brief illness, lived 4 Anne Street. This all confirmed by death certificate among other things. He m 1861 or 1862 Tempo Church near Enniskillen, Fermanagh Cty or Fanet Mary Dixon b [from Dundas, 14 Aug 1837] at Fanet? Lived at Enniskillen, Fermanagh County. His business and possibly his residence was at 7 High St, in Enniskillen. He described himself as a printer, bookseller, and agent for several businesses in the Fermanagh Directory which he published. He owned and edited the Fermanagh Times, a newspaper. He owned a general shop, sold all sorts of things, in Enniskillen; he advertised in the Fermanagh Directory which he published in 1879 and 1880 and also in his paper that he sold stationery, books, patent medicines, hard liquor, groceries etc., and his wife sold shoes and boots, and he ran a printing press, and at one point published a newspaper. All of this at once. He began, according to Seamuas McCanny who is an Enniskillen author with an interest in history of that period, as a conducting clerk with the Enniskillen solicitor Archibald Collum. Later became Deputy Clerk of the Peace for Enniskillen and agent for Enniskillen Corporation. His court position consisted of keeping records, notes of what happened in court, and preparing papers. He also, according to his own advertisemments and a lawsuit against him, acted as agent for a number of not local businesses, in addition to acting as agent for the feudal estate that consisted of rental properties and was managed by a committee of Enniskillen citizens. It was called Enniskillen Corporation. In the 1870's he set in business as a printer and stationer at 'The Enniskillen Printing Company' 7, High Street Enniskillen. He was one of the earliest properietors of the Fermanagh Times. The paper went bakrupt and had to be bought over and managed by a local committee in 1881. He moved to Clonmel County, Tippperary, where he was appointed Deputy Clerk of the Peace for that county and died there at 4 Anne St in 1905. He republished Lowe's Fermanagh Directory and Household Almanc for 1880 . His Fermanagh directory was republished in 1990 as Fermanagh One Hundred Years Ago, and several people on the web did lookups in it for me. He set up as a printer and stationer in the 1870's in Enniskillen, at The Enniskillen Printing Company, at 7 High St. In 1881 he became publisher of the Fermanagh Times. He was one of its earliest proprietors. He does not seem tohave been editor. The paper seems to have been started by Lord Erne, who was probably a political reactionary, and A. W. Wheeler published it in 1880. To the degree that the paper involved any politics they were probably pro- large landlord, as there was a need for such a paper since the tenants rights (Land League) movement was well organized and strong in Fermanagh and another paper was owned by a wealthy but liberal and eccentric landowner who took liberal views. But the paper may have become more political after a reactionary editor took it over from the local committee who took it over from Lowe. "Earlier in 1880 he had sold off the boot and shoe part of his business but it was announced that he would continue trading in ladies' boots. He resigned as agent for Enniskillen Corporation (This seems to ahve been a rent/rate collecting job) shortly after her death. The printing press (which was the first steam printing press in Fermanagh and thus much faster than the hand presses) was mvoed from High Street where he had his shop which continued for other goods apart from the boots and shoes, to Townhall St.," Henry Lowe's involvement with the paper didn't last long. He lost his wife to tuberculosis in January 1881, went bankrupt, and lost the paper in April 1881. The paper went bankrupt and was taken over by a local comittee. He was forced to resign from his position as agent for the Enniskillen Corporation,which owned a large amount of property and managed it, in October 1881, due to financial irregularities on his part. He failed to account for the rents he was responsible for collecting and appears to have personally spent some of it. From notes of committee meetings people felt rather sorry for him.Also, he was repeatedly described as ill and unable to get out of bed. I have a letter from Seamus that After H.N. Lowe resigned (from the paper, apparently), bankruptcy proceedings began and in September a sale of his goods was announced, inlcuidng an insurance policy that stated that he was 44 years of age. Teh newspaper came into the hands of solicitor Joseph Alexander. One of the reports mentioned that he had been appointed agent of the corporation in 1870. Seamus McCanny has a note that at the bankruptcy hearing in Dublin in May , 1881, Henry Nathaniel's mother said he was in America. I suspect that Joseph Lowe's time in North America dates to this time; he was between 12 and 16 years old in 1881. He wrote that he was a raw lad when he stayed with his mother's brother Joseph in Canada. By 1885, the Fermanagh Times reported that Joseph Allen Lowe was sporting editor of the Montreal Gazette. That is not possible if he was not born until 1869, LOL. Seamus and I wonder for how long he was hiding in America. He didn't become a Mason again in Clonmel until 1889. Of course, he did have a bout of depression. He got into a couple of conflicts with people; a lawsuit from Dr. Collum for whom he had become agent, perhaps a relative of the Collum he originally worked for. He was sued for libel - by Dr. Collum? When he went bankrupt, he claimed that one of his main backers failed to back him because he had refused her demand that he make a donation to the Methodist Church. Lord knows if this is true or why he relied on such a person if it was. Clearly he was overextended at the time when this happened or someone failing to back him could not have made a difference AND he would not have gone bankrupt. Whatever happened, he struck out particularly nastily at others instead of taking responsibility for his role in his own affairs. Even in his son Joseph's telling of it, it was someone else's fault. He was robbed. Seamas McCanny says he started on the newspaper business AFTER this (this what? He went bankrupt while he was publishing the paper) but it was after he opened the print shop in East Bridge Street. In notes about his family's life events in his paper and his Fermanagh business directory, ca 1879 - 81, he lists his business at 7 High St and the family residence as High St. After all of this, he moved to Clonmel, in Co Tipperary, where he again was appointed deputy clerk of the peace, and he died there, apparently with no more excitement. People came from Cavan, Leitrim, Donegal and Tyrone for his wife's funeral; pretty much all places members of their families are connected with. Two people sent me copies of her obituary, which sounds touchingly like something either of my grandparents or his son would have written. It is pretty clear that he at least wrote the obituary for his wife - and also that he loved and greatly missed her.

He was a preacher at Barrowfield in the 1830's He was a man of considerable ability, great religious fervour and moral passion. He was a Wesleyan local preacher, but later joined the Primitive Methodists. He was urged to join the ministry but declined. At a later period he regretted his refusal and vowed that if he had a son, he would dedicate him to the service of God. At his son Robert's birth that vow was renewed and it was with the boy almost as with the prophet Samuel; for very early in life he took part in Church work. Later in life William became a missionary in the Isle of Man. He died during an epidemic of fever which claimed him as its victim, as with self-effacing devotion he ministered to the needs of others.

| 4153 | From: http://www.hartleychambers.com/familytree/people.php?person=00109 Rev Robert Hartley and family came to Australia on board the ship "Echo". It departed from London and arrived in Sydney on 22 June 1860. The family members that came with him were: Mrs Jane Hartley, Miss AC Hartley, Master WJ Hartley, Master RT Hartley, Master SW Hartley and Miss Jane E Hartley. (Source: http://mariners.records.nsw.gov.au/1860/06/041ech.htm) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: http://www.hartleychambers.com/familytree/people.php?person=00001 Baptised on 13 April 1817 at St Bartholomews Parish Church, Colne, Robert Hartley from birth was, by his father, dedicated to the Lord. At 18 he entered the Primitive Methodist Ministry and for 25 years faithfully filled that position in the Old country in various circuits. In 1860 he arrived in Sydney, where he remained for 4 years, then moved to Rockhampton where he lived and laboured for 28 years, first as a Minister in charge and then as a supernumary assistant. He was ever loyal and devoted to his church, working heroically to protect and advance her interests, and was at the same time the willing and enthusiastic helper of all the churches. He was a life long abstainer and vigourous temperance advocate, the ever available and faithful friend of the Kanaka, one of the founders and friend of the Benevolent Society, being ceaselessly vigilant in looking after the poor and distressed. He was always happy when doing something for somebody. His last Sunday on earth he preached twice, and would have done so thrice only for the persistent refusal of the Rev J Williams to allow him, and early on Wednesday morning he 'ceased at once to work and live". His funeral was the largest known in Rockhampton, and in every Church in town Memorial Services were held on the following Sunday. The town people marked their appreciation of his worth by erecting a drinking fountain in front of the Post Office. (Source: The Christian Ensign: The Organ of the Primitive Methodist Connexion, Queensland; Brisbane, September 3, 1896) Says on his Gravestone: For 57 years, a faithful Minister of Christ Religion: Methodist At the beginning of 1864 the late Rev. Robert Hartley opened the Primitive Methodist Church on the site in Fitzroy Street, where the business premises of Messrs. James Miller and Co. Used to be. Mr. Hartley remained in Rockhampton till his death, and lived to see it become a flourishing town. A harder working minister than Mr. Hartley surely never lived. He took great delight in what may be termed pioneering work, and visited the various gold diggings regularly, and in all weathers. He often had to put up with poor fare, and hard bed, and perhaps, worst of all, very little encouragement, but he was always cheery. Such a man soon endears himself to everyone, and after passing the allotted span of human life, he passed away full of years and of honours, all classes following his remains with sincere respect to the cemetery. He lived in Rocky for 28 years (from 1864). He previously spent 24 years as a Minister in England then 4 years in Sydney. Hartley R, Prim.M.Min, Bolsover St (Source = http://www.rootsweb.com/~auscqfha/rockhampton_resident-1868s.htm) In Sydney, Robert resided at 34 College Street, Sydney. (Source: ancestry.com / Sands Directory: Sydney and New South Wales) In Wikipedia, the page for Aaron Buzacott says that Aaron's funeral was held on 21 September, a Presbyterian minister reading from Scripture, and the procession then moving on to the Bourke Street Congregational Church (in Sydney, NSW) where Rev Hartley, a Primitive Methodist, gave out the hymn. He was buried in the Congregational burying-ground in Devonshire Street, Sydney, now the location of the Central Railway Station. So Rev. Hartley may have spent some or all of his time in Sydney at the Bourke Street Congregational Church. Years later Rev Hartley's son, Stewart also married a member of the Buzacott family. Robert Hartley was an outstanding pioneer minister of the Methodist Church in Rockhampton. He was filled with zeal and energy and by 1868 was riding through the bush on horseback to hold services at the surrounding goldfields and before long he established preaching places at Cawarral, Mount Wheeler, Stanwell and Westwood. He was loved by his congregation and he became the friend and counsellor of immigrants and South Sea Islanders. In 1873 he baptised the first Polynesian child to be received into the Christian Church in Rockhampton and he was active in such nondenominational organisations as the Temperance Society and the YMCAand he was a supporter of the Benevolent Society for most of his long years in the town. Rev. Robert Hartley was on the committee of gentlemen who took the first steps to found a nondenominations Grammar School at Rockhampton in 1873. It wasn't until 1878 that the Rockhampton Grammar School was given a green light, and opened on 1 February 1881. In 1893, two weeks after Robert Hartley's death, a public meeting in the School of Arts decided that the most appropriate memorial would be a public drinking fountain. the substantial sum of money was collected in ten cent donations. Permission was obtained by this citizens' committee to erect the stone drinking fountain on the footpath in front of the post office. It is built from Stanwell freestone (as is the Post Office) and had to be moved to the median strip on East Street after traffic lights were installed at the intersection in the early 1970's. It remains a handsome memorial to one who advocated pure water as the best drink for men. The old Fitzroy Street church was sold in 1900 and a new church in Archer Street opened on 29 April 1901 which was named Hartley Memorial Church. Throughout the twentieth century the church pursued a vigorous policy, but one which changed with the changing times. In 1963 a new hall at the Archer Street Church was opened to mark the centenary of the founding of Methodism in Rockhampton. Note: All the churches formerly vested in the Methodist Church became part of the Uniting Church of Australia in 1977.

Source: http://www.rootsweb.com/~nswsdps/ausdh146.htm An excert from 'The Life of Sir William Hartley' by AS Peake reads as follows: "... Robert Hartley, Sir William's uncle, was a man of very handsome presence and exceptionally fine character. He became a Primitive Methodist minister at an early age, and after spending a quarter of a century in England, went to Australia and laboured for thirty-two years in Queesland. One feature of his many-sided activity was his kindness to the emigrants from England whom he met at the landing-stage. His home was at Rockhampton on the coast; but he covered a wide field, reaching from Brisbane nearly to the Gulf of Carpentaria. He was apparently too much occupied to send home reports of his work; so Dr Samuel Antliff, when he was sent to visit Australia, was instructed to make investigations. He found him the leading man in Rockhampton. His fellow-citizens celebrated his ministerial Jubilee and presented him with a purse of gold; and after his death dedicated a public fountain to his memory. A Hartley Memorial Chapel also commemorates his work. A letter from Dr McLaren may fitly be quoted at this point. It was written on July 23, 1892. "Mr Hartley was in Southampton during several years of my pastorate there, when I leared to esteem him very higly for his earnestness, warmth of heart, bright temperament, diligence and self-forgetfulness. I had the pleasure of a visit from him when he was in England some years since, and have always cherished warm feelings of friendship for him. I share with your denomination the sense of loss by his death, and should be glad if you would tell Mr Hartley of Aintree how truly I esteemed and honoured his uncle."

Occupation: Cotton Twist Spinner He was a mill owner, and built two cotton factory mills in Barley, one at Narrowgates (a cotton twist mill) in 1799 and the other in Barley Green (around 1796). In its heyday in 1862, Barley Green Mill worked 200 looms but floods destroyed the building in 1880. The mill in Narrowgates still exists - as apartments. (Note: another source states the Narrowgates site is now the site of the water treatment plant. It may be the adjacent weavers cottages that still exist today.) He married Mary Robinson and had 10 children. "General History of Barley Barley, known as Barelegh in 1324, means the infertile lea or meadow. The Township of Barley included Barley Booth, Wheatley Booth and Hay Booth and Whitehalgh (now known as Whitehough) - "Booth" means cowsheds. About 1266 a cow farm was established, followed by extensive cattle breeding in the 13th Century. Barley earned its livelihood from agriculture until the 18th century when textiles were manufactured and handlooms were installed in attics of many smallholdings as an extra source of income. Barley's brooks - as an effective source of waterpower attracted cotton factories. There was a small mill at Narrowgates and one at Barley Green, which is now the site of the water treatment plant. At its height Barley Green Mill worked 200 looms, until floods destroyed the building in 1880. A cotton twist mill at Narrowgates was built by William Hartley to spin cotton warp thread. Weavers cottages were built adjacent to the mill and are still occupied to this day."

The date for the 1799 build derives from a lease of land at Stang Laithe, Barley where he built the reservoir for the mill. This was for 999 years and started in 1799. William was dead in 1808 and had five sons, John, James, Richard, Peter and William. In 1810 the Hartley Brothers leased more land from Thomas Clayton for the reservoir. 1812.

As mentioned previously, this was also the first occurrence of "Modeland." On 16 October 1762, John Modeland of the parish of Hadon and Sarah Pearson of Garrigill were married by Banns. Sarah had been born at Tynehead in Garrigill in 1740, the daughter of Thomas Pearson and Elizabeth Archer. John and Sarah had eight children, six sons and two daughters, of whom three sons and two daughters survived childhood. John was a miner and the family resided near various mines, as recorded by their children's baptisms, though most frequently at Tynehead, where they lived from 1763 through 1774, except for 1765 when they were recorded at Hole. In 1777 they were living at Eshgill, and at Eshgillside from 1780 until John's death in 1784. He was buried in Garrigill churchyard on 7 March 1784. Like most miners he died young, presumably in his forties. He left his widow to raise their six children, who ranged from 2 to 19 years in age. The eldest, Thomas, a miner, probably supported the family until his marriage 15 years later to Elizabeth Hall. Thomas and Elizabeth had four daughters, of whom only two survived. Sadly, Thomas died in 1804 aged 39, when his daughters were only 3 and 1. The second eldest son of John and Sarah, John, married Mary Waugh of Garrigill in 1792.These two are the ancestors of the Canadian Modeland family. The third surviving son, Joshua, married Mary Vipond in 1806 and had three daughters. It appears all the male Modeland family members emigrated by 1828. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | MODELAND, John (I2316)

He was born at Tynehead mine, a hamlet 4 miles south of Garrigill. He was their third-born, but second surviving son, named for his father and an elder brother, John, who had died as an infant in 1765. In 1792 John married Mary Waugh, daughter of Thomas Waugh and Hannah Woodmas of Garrigill. John and Mary had five children: Thomas (1793-1868), John (1795-1866), Isaac (1798-1829), Joshua (1801-1848) and Mary (1803-?). John was a miner and worked at the Middlecraig (1793), Hiving (1795), Tynehead (1798, 1801), and Gatehead (1803) mines, according to church baptismal records. It is not known if John emigrated to North America with his children and his wife. By 1822, when the first family members emigrated, he would have been 54 years of age, a long life for a miner. His son John had emigrated to Chinguacousy Township, Peel County, Upper Canada with his wife Elizabeth Moore by 1822. John was followed by his elder brother Thomas, wife Ann Sparks and their children, who emigrated to Vermont, United States in 1825, and north to Chinguacousy in 1828.

| 4173 | Goldie never knew his father as a vigorous man. He was just a baby when his parents went out in a winter storm to help a neighbour. Afterwards, William became ill, developed pneumonia and, over the next 3 years, deteriorated until he was unable to walk and was largely bedridden. When Goldie's mother died in 1907, various children came to stay at the house to help William, but Goldie was the constant. He became Postmaster for Livingstone Creek in 1914, setting it up in their home where his father could enjoy seeing his neighbours as they came to do their business. Goldie carried his father wherever he needed to go and William especially enjoyed it when Goldie took him outside at night to see the stars. Someone (often Goldie) always took the time to read the newspaper to William every day. | MCCREA, James Golden (I205)

When mother was 10 years of age, they made a train trip to Scotland - saw all the relatives - Cheves, MacDonald, MacGregor, Thain, Gould, Savage, etc. - and brought back my great grandmother, Mrs MacDonald. Mother, in her time, grew up with her grandmother in the house at Lakelet, Ontario. When Grandfather Cheves sold his farm and retired quite young, he bought a house in Clifford, Ontario - from where Mother was married and came to Paisley.

A cousin tells about Hattie: "Hat was a dedicated church goer and when we visited she always wanted us to go with her. In those days you had to dress up to go to church and we never had much with us. Finally, Hat made each of us a hat out of Kleenex and we went with her." Also "On Saturday nights, Dean and Ray Allen would come out to Hat & Ray’s along with all the family. There must have been about 20 of us. We went down the driveway to the beach, built a fire and with Dean and Ray providing the music, we all sang songs for a couple of hours." | MCCREA, Hattie Catherine (I203)
