taken from a post on Banbridge, Co. Down

"the factories and the houses were built by the Clibborn family who were Quakers and came to Banbridge from Moate in Co Westmeath, they built Solitude House as their home, owned Solitude, built Victoria House on Newry Rd yet it is near impossible to get any information on what happened to them"

Any of those Moneypennys a blacksmith back then by any chance? The only Moneypenny that`s well known around Portadown is this place ->https://discovernorthernireland.com/things-to-do/moneypennys-lock-p675221
"Restored 18th Century lock-keeper's house, stables and bothy located on the Newry Canal. The stables contain a 'Life on the Canal' exhibition, which explores the history of the Newry Canal; the oldest summit level canal in the British Isles. Part of the lock-keeper's house, containing a typical early 1900s interior, is also open to the public (please note that the rest of the house is a private residence.

Moneypenny’s Lockhouse

Moneypenny’s lockhouse, stables and lock chamber are situated along the Newry Canal towpath (BT62 3RS). The lockhouse, named after the last lockkeepers to live in the house, has been beautifully restored. The gable end of the house includes a display on how the Moneypenny family would have lived in the 1800s.

Quote from: Doug Engle on Tuesday 11 September 18 09:04 BST (UK)
I've been a historian of the (mostly Open) Plymouth Brethren for over 20 years, and would love to help with uncovering family information for anyone in need or curiosity.

Hi Doug, A good many of my family circle around the Dromore/Lurgan/Banbridge area are `Brethren`, not locally known as plymouth brethren though, but i guess one and the same.

What i always wondered was how and when there came to be such numbers of them here in N. Ireland. Where did they originally come from and why?
