Many thanks for the very swift reply. We live near Lancaster and I can easily look this up now in the local history library. Another family mystery about to be solved!

Have just seen posting re suicide of William Bleasdale in Lancaster 1875. This is my wife' s 4x great grandfather and she was totally unaware of this. Can you help with any other details please?

Isle of Man / Re: Louis Clague
« on: Tuesday 19 August 08 22:59 BST (UK)  »
I`m new to this site, which I discovered by accident this evening, looking for my Clague ancestors. I am descended on my mother`s side from the Robert Clague mentioned in the IOM 1871 and 1851 Censuses, and the elder brother of Lewis. Like Lewis, he ended up in west Cumberland, at Cleator Moor, not far from Hensingham. He too worked as a miner. Our side of the Clague family seems to have disappeared nowadays in England, but I have cousins ( and,probably, their children,) who carry on the name in Australia. I`m currently trying to establish contact with them, but have had no success so far. I`ve so far got the family back to John Clague ( c. 1780) in Lonan.
