MOSSLEY & SADDLEWORTH REPORTER NEWSPAPER - Saturday 28th May 1917


"A GOOD SOLDIER"
-------------------
Mossley Youth Killed in Action
-------------------
WAS TO HAVE BEEN PROMOTED
---------------------


Mr. & Mrs. Carl Lawton of Micklehurst, have this week received the news of the death of their son, Private Phillip Lawton, of the London Scottish Regiment. Private Lawton belongs to one of the best known and most respected families in the Mossley district. His Father is a member of the firm of Messers George Lawton & Son's, Woollen Manufacturers of Micklehurst and Diggle.


Private Lawton who was 19 years of age had been out in France for five months.


The news of his death was conveyed in the following letters from his officers; -


Dear Mrs. Lawton:- I regret to have to report the death of your son, which occured in the night of the 11th May. He was killed instantly, and I am glad that we were able to give him a decent burial. He was a good soldier , and one of a type that we can ill afford to lose.


I know how inadequate are words of sympathy to heal the wrench caused by the passing of a loved one, but I thought I would like to convey to you the sincere sympathy of my men and officers on the passing of their comrade.


I am enclosing a little spoon which I thought you would treasure as a momento. His other effects will come to you through official sources, but as that takes time I thought it better to send you something direct.


Yours Truly: J. B. Filshill. Capt. D,Adjt. -
------------------------------------


B.E.F France 16/5/1917


Dear Mrs. Lawton: - It is with deep regret that I have to write this letter telling you of the death of your son. I personally saw him fall when we were about 15 yeard from the Bosche trench. The only consolation, if one can call it such, is that he was killed instantly, and suffered no pain.


Hwe was one my my special boys in my Platoon, and was so quiet and willing that everyone loved him.


I can dimly realise what your feelings must be, as a platoon commander is a mother to all his boy's. The ache one feels when one of them has gone is awful.


Your son was getting back one of his stripes, as I had my eye on him for promotion, and was only awaiting an opportunity.


He is buried in the Scottish Cemetery at Guimappe, along with other fallen comrades.


I must finish off now, for your sorrow is too great to be worried by letter reading. Again accept my sympathies in this terrible occurance - Believe me:


Tours Sincerely: Douglas W. Heathcock. 2nd Lieut. O.C. 13 Platoon.
------------------------------------------------

Hi Trevor, - The story in the newspaper article seems to be made up of bits of information relating to different members of the family. There was a Ralph Lawton (1789-1854) who lived at Grove House, Delph. His son Joseph Gamaliel (1830-1911) moved from the area to work a farm, Burnage Farm, Alvington, Glous sometime between the birth of his first and second children ie Ralph William b. 1856 and Ada b. 1858. At some point he moved to New Zealand and then South Africa where he died in 1911.


Ralph?s brother Joseph (1795-1855) married Sarah Margaret Cairney Whitehead (1807-1896). Joseph?s first born was William Frederick (1843-1874), born Delph and died Wyck Hall, Suffolk . He married Agnes Jane Thompson born in South Africa c.1850. When William died in 1874, after five years of marriage, she moved to Torquay, Devon where she lived with her sister Annie and seven servants. By 1891 she had married Admiral Sir William Graham (1826-1907), a Royal Naval Officer who rose to the rank of Third Sea Lord and Controller of the Navy until he retired in 1888. Lady Agnes Jane Graham of Torquay was to die on the 29th October 1915 at the Via San Martino Macas, Rome , Italy . In her will she left 20 thousand pounds.


I think that the two pieces if information have been conflated by the newspaper. If there was a restriction made by William Frederick on his widow, and if she lost out on any monies from William F., her moving to Torquay and employing seven servants suggests that she didn?t really need the money anyway. Perhaps she married Admiral Sir William at a time when her funds were getting a bit low?; her will certainly suggests that she had a healthy bank balance at the end??


Also, if William Frederick died in 1874, why did it take nearly 10 years for Joseph Gamaliel to turn up and take possession of a fortune ?which has suddenly fallen to his lot?. Is the article suggesting that his widow had married in 1883 which had then released the ?fortune? to Joseph Gamaliel. I think the will of W.F.Lawton might make more interesting reading !

From the sale of the property of Ralph Lawton in 1856


A life leasehold estate situate at Badger Edge on High Moor in Saddleworth, comprising several closes of land, containing altogether 28a 3r 5p statute measure or thereabouts; and an undivided third party of a close now or lately called the Great Dole, containing by estimation 40 acres statute measure or thereabouts. These premises are held for the remainder of the life of the Gentleman now aged 62 years, under a lease dated 29th January 1799, granted by the Earl of Stamford and Warrington, to the persons therein named, and now subject to the yearly rent of 9 pounds, 17 shillings and 9 pence, and to the covenants and conditions in that lease contained.


Anyone got an idea as to Gentleman and also the Estate ??? - The estate is possibly Moscow No 180 on the 1822 township map (Quickmere) It is then owned by Joseph Lees. - The Great Dole is No 15 (Shawmere). See Mapping Saddleworth II. Pgs 190. 191, 216, 217. - Sounds like a possible lease for three lives, the gentlemen being the youngest, only 5 at the time. The Lease will probably have been registered At the WR Registry of deeds, and a trip to Wakefield may provide the answer.

- Could this be Richard Lawton the son of John Lawton (1745) & Grandson of George Lawton of Walk Mill (1710) - Could this Richard have re-married to Martha Brearly, after the death of wife Mary in April 1733, when Richard would have been about 35 Years of age - and then had several more children at Thurstones then Brownhill, )Joseph 1737, Simon 1739, Benjamin 1741 - Seems very likely.


Cannot find any records for the Birth or Baptism of this Richard Lawton, or any indication of his locality, except from the St. Chad's Marriage Register on 20th November 1722, which records Richard Lawton of Saddleworth, married Mary Buckley of New Houses, Saddleworth.

- This 'RICHARD LAWTON' was Born: About 1697 to 1702, but as yet I have not found any record of his Baptism, or if he was actually Baptised. He married 'MARY BUCKLEY' from Newhouses, Austerlands, Saddleworth, on the 20th of September 1722 at St. Chad's Saddleworth Church. The Marriage produced 6 children, being 4 Girls and 2 Boys, both boys died in infancy, Joseph died aged 8 months, and Levi died about 2 months of age in April 1733. Richards wife Mary also died in Deptember 1733, just a few months after the birth of son Levi, and it seems possible that childbirth may have contributed to her early demise at the age of about 32 years. - It then appears very likely that Widower Richard Lawton soon re-married to Widow Martha Brearley of Diglee, Diggle, who bore Richard another six children.


LETTERS (Saddleworth Historical Society)


Dear Editor,


While researching the name of James Brierley, and variations of the surname, I unearthed the following story in the volumes of the Saddleworth Church Registers 1613-1751 and 1751-1800, edited by John Radcliffe.


On 31st May 1724 a man called James Brearley, a clothier, married Martha Bradbury, a spinster. Both were of Dig-lee. They had a daughter, Sarah, baptised on 27th September 1724, who was buried later the same year, on 27th September. They then had a boy, James, baptised on 10th July, 1726 who was also to die early in life, being buried on 29th December 1726. On 26th November 1727 they had another son, who they again christened James, but he was buried some nine years later on 21st September 1736, two years and nine months after his mother had married Richard Lawton. James, Martha?s husband, was buried on 23rd June, 1730 and the following day Joseph, son of widow (Martha) Brearley de Dig-Lee (wife of the late James Brearley de Dig-Lee) was christened.


This sad story continues with the burial of son Joseph on 27th October, 1732. Martha re-married on 31st December 1734 to a man called Richard Lawton, a clothier of Thurstones, Diggle, and they had a son called John, baptised on 2nd November, 1735. This was also to end in tragedy when he was buried on 15th August the following year and having seen none of her children grow to maturity, Martha had actually lost two of her sons within five weeks of each other.


**The story does not end there, however, because Martha and Richard produced yet another child, a daughter called Alice, christened on 1st January, 1749. Almost unbelievably Alice passed away the same year and was buried on 31st October, 1749**. Although Martha had given birth to six children by two different husbands, none of them had lived beyond the age of nine.


** NOTE: This 'Alice Lawton' Bapt: 1st Jan 1749 was the daughter of Richard Lawton and Sarah (Buckley) Lawton of Cotemans, Delph. and not the child of Richard & Martha Lawton of Brownhill.**


An entry records the burial on 12th October 1769 of Richard Lawton of Shelderslow, a clothier, and a later entry refers to the burial of Martha Lawton on 10th January 1790. The latter is the only entry between 1749 and 1800 for the burial of someone called Martha Lawton, but it records her as the wife of George Lawton of Stoneswood. Although her second husband was called Richard Lawton the records show that Banns were called for George Lawton and Martha Lawton on 30th December 1789. Perhaps she had married for a third time although strangely I have not found any record of their marriage.


Is this tragic tale unique or are there any other examples, and is there perhaps a medical explanation?

1901 Census - Aged 6 at Stalybridge.


'll tell you what little I know about my father's roots. Richard Moss Lawton was born on 19 April, 1894 in Stalybridge, Cheshire, England. He came to Canada in 1912 and married my mother in 1924. He died 12 November 1929. I am his only child.


Richard's parents were Samuel Lawton (1858-1926) and Mary Ellen Moss (1864-1927). Samuel died in Mossley, Lancashire, England. Mary Ellen then moved to Montreal to be with her daughter Christine and died there. They all belonged to the Church of England.


My father had an older brother Hubert (b. about 1886 and d. in the1960s), who had one daughter Dorothy (b.1919). Hubert's wife's name was Mary.They remained in the Lancashire area, where Dorothy married and had one son, Paul. Richard's older sister Christine (B: Abt 1892 and D: Abt 1960). Christine married a Charles Blease, also from England. They emigrated to Montreal, Canada where they had two daughters Nellie and Lillian, who were born around 1920 or a bit earlier. I have lost touch with my three first cousins. According to the 1901 census, Richard had one older brother and several younger sisters. The girls evidently died as infants and the boy as a teenager. This is really all I have, but Richard's grandparents were possibly James and Elizabeth Lawton, also of Stalybridge. In the 1881 Census, Elizabeth was a widow (B: Abt 1858), Samuel was 23, Elizabeth Ann was 19, and Robert was 28.

LAST WILL & TESTAMENT of ROBERT LAWTON of BATLEYS, STAYLEY - 19th May 1731


Memorandum: That upon the Nineteenth Day of May in the year of our Lord 1731, we whose names are subscribed being present at the House of ROBERT LAWTON late of Stayley in the Parish of Mottram and County and Diocese of Chester, deceased, who then was seized with and laboured under the sickness whereof he died. And being in the House of his usual habitation or abode in Stayley aforesaid, and declaring a coherent desire to make his Will and settle things in order, delivered it in the following words or words to the same effect and purposes before us whose names are hereunder written whom or some of whom he bid or desired to take notice and bear witness that such was his mind and will, and he gave, devised and bequeathed all his right, title and interest as in and unto his lands situate lying and being at Batleys in the County aforesaid to his wife, to have and to hold the same for and during the term of her natural life, and after her decease to his Brothers and Sisters for and during the term of their natural lives, and after their decease to JOHN LAWTON of Saddleworth in the County of York to keep it in his name chargeable nevertheless with the payment of Ten Shillings a year to the poor of Stayley aforesaid, and Ten Shillings a year to the poor of Hollingworth in the aforesaid Parish, to be by him well and truly paid. And as to his personal Estate, he gave and bequeathed the residue and remainder thereof after his funeral expenses and florist were paid out of the same, to his Brothers and Sisters equally share and share alike (one bed and some few odd things only excepted which he did not particularly mention ). In Testimony of the truth of what is herein contained we all jointly affirm that ELIZABETH LAWTON his beloved wife, and his eldest brother GEORGE LAWTON were nominated his Executors to see all things fulfilled as specified aforesaid. In witness whereof we have hereunto set our hands this 19th of this instant May 1731.


HUGH KINDER
ROBERT THORNLEY
ALICE WOOLLEY (X) her mark.


Affirment written in Latin confirming Elizabeth Lawton and George Lawton were sworn in common oath as executors. August 1731


Note: I am of the opinion that the above ROBERT LAWTON was the same person Born: 1695 in Stayley, Mottram Parish, who married Elizabeth Earneshaw on 8th September 1730 at Mottram Church. Robert died without issue!. Hence his estate passed to his newly married wife, then to his siblings after her death, then to JOHN LAWTON of Saddleworth who may have been his relative, perhaps his fathers brother.

- There is some confusion regards this 'ROBERT LAWTON' and his marriage to 'HANNAH CLARE' - - NOTE: - A record in St. Chad's Saddleworth Church - Marriage Register - 26th January 1797 - Robert Lawton - Married Hannah Clare - A Sub-Note at bottom of page reads: Robert Lawton of Bottoms, Died: 2nd February 1827 in his 52nd Year, and Ann his wife Died: 18th January 1846 in her 71st year ? - Buried in St. George's Churchyard, Mossley. (Radcliffe Marriage Register - Book 1 - Page:115)


- What happened to wife 'Hannah Clare'


Probabley the son of Gervas Lawton & Mary Broadbent of Bottoms. - This 'ROBERT LAWTON' Died: aged 53 years, on the 3rd February 1827 at Cheshire Street, Bottoms, Stayley.


There appears to have been a 'Link' between this Lawton family and a 'Dyson' family, as a William Dyson aged 12 was living with Widow Ann lawton in 1841.
