NOTES on JAMES LAWTON - (1813 - 1880)


Searching for 10 years and still unable find any record of James's Birth or Baptism in 1813 records.


1841 Census - Age 28 (Weaver) at Saddleworth Fold / 14. Uppermill.
1851 Census - Aged 37 (Labourer in Stone Quarry) at Shaws, Uppermill.
1861 Census - Aged 47 (Woollen Weaver) at Shaws, Uppermill.
1871 Census - Aged 59 (Gardener) at Shaws, Uppermill.


If we look at naming conventions at that period in time, it was not uncommon for the first born child (either male or female) to be named after the Grandparent from each side of the family. Hence the first daughter was named "ESTHER ANN" which would indicate that James Lawton's mother was Esther, and Alice Schofield's mother was Ann or Hannah. The first boy born was named "JOHN FREDERICK" which would indcate that he was named after Alice's father John Schofield and James's father Frederick - This of course is only an assumtion on my part exploring any means of identifying James Lawton's parents. If we take a look at William Alfred's children, the convention holds true, as he named his first born son "JAMES WILLIAM" after both Grandfathers.


Lived at Shaws (Hamlet) Uppermill for most of his married life; Census returns from 1841 to 1871.

The Funeral of James William Lawton took place from his late residence, 3 Roman Street, off Stockport Road, Mossley, on Monday afternoon. The interment was at Mossley Cemetery. The Vicar of St. John's Church, the Rev. J. Carruthers conducted a short service at the house, and also officiated at the Cemetery. Messers; J. Thwaite, W. Lawton, S. Littlewood, and J. Allsopp acted as bearers. The mourners, who were conveyed in two coaches, included Mrs. Lawton and children, Mr. & Mrs. Lawton (father and mother), Mr. Thomas Lawton (brother), Mrs. Mellor (sister), Mr. & Mrs. Cook, Mr. & Mrs. J. Lawton, Mrs. Garner, and Mrs. Allsopp.


A beautiful wreath was placed on the coffin from his wife and children.



A TRAGEDY RECALLED


Mr. James William Lawton, who was one of the passengers killed in the Mossley Tram Disaster on Friday, had a narrow escape from death by drowning many years ago, when he resided in Uppermill, Saddleworth.


Lawton and his sweetheart, Miss Esther Buckley Schofield (21), also of Uppermill, were "Walking out" on December 27 th. 1885. The night was very dark, and sudden cries for help were heard. It was found that in the darkness both had fallen into the Huddersfield Canal at Wade Lock. Uppermill. Lawton was almost dead when rescued, and it was only with difficulty that animation was restored. Miss Schofield's body was not recovered for some time.


When young, Mr. Lawton was a capital Bass singer. For years he was in the Sam Hauge Minstrel Troupe. He frequently sang at the special services in Saddleworth Church. Mr. Lawton leaves a widow and two children.

Notes on SAM HAGUE MINSTREL TROUPE


Sam Hague was a British blackface minstrel dancer and troupe owner. He was the first white owner of a minstrel troupe composed of black members, and the success he saw with this troupe inspired many other white owners to purchase black companies.


Hague began his career as a performer in British and American minstrel shows. He eventually branched into troupe ownership and management, and in 1866, he formed a ten-member black minstrel troupe called Sam Hague's Slave Troupe of Georgia Minstrels;[1] the first white man to have done so. They toured England for several years, and eventually counted stars such as Bob Height and Charles Hicks among their members. Hague's overseas success lent black minstrelsy a new credence in the United States. By the mid-1870s, most successful American black troupes had been bought by white owners who had followed Hague's lead. When the Slave Troupe returned to the United States, Charles Callender purchased the company.


By 1881, Hague owned a white minstrel troupe composed of British players. The British had a reputation in America for not being as apt at portraying caricatured black roles or performing comedy bits. In response, Sam Hague's British Minstrels stressed their musical abilities and their refined costumes and sets. Only the endmen wore blackface, and the troupe did no base comedy. George Primrose and William H. West adopted Hague's idea and sparked a new trend in minstrelsy.

What a boring existence local Victorians must have had. That’s what I used to think, before I started delving into the past.


Let’s see what was on offer in January 1891. What about nightly performances at the Queen’s Opera House in Workington. For one week, beginning January 19 the world-famous Sam Hague’s Minstrels were appearing.


Never heard of him? Few people have nowadays but in the 19th century he was a big name in popular entertainment. He started as a clog dancer. He went to America in 1850 and, according to some, was responsible for introducing our transatlantic cousins to English clog dancing. He returned to England around 1866, bringing a 10 strong troupe of coloured dancers, which he called Sam Hague’s Slave Troupe of Georgia Minstrels.


The American Civil War had just ended and some of his dancers had been slaves. His original group broke up and by the time he came to Workington, he was probably employing an all-white group.


So could Workington support a theatre opening nightly for a week? Probably not, but then it didn’t have to.


People came in from the towns and villages to go the Opera House.


They came on the train. From Maryport, Cockermouth and Whitehaven. Just like we can today? I wish! But in 1891, special late trains were laid on, leaving Workington at 11pm.


You are in The Pierrotters


The Pierrotters
They do like to be beside the Seaside


Blackpool's name spells magic, holidays and the seaside, and entertainment. There have always been big shows aplenty, but the Pierrots, along with Punch & Judy, were the embodiment of small theatre, performing alfresco and on the piers. Black-faced Pierrots at Blackpool were first seen on the beach at Starr Gate in the 1890s, and Uncle Tom's Cabin at Bispham was a home for minstrelsy until it fell into the sea. There were troupes at Raikes Hall Gardens and, around 1900, the White Coons (white-faced Pierrot entertainers) were formed, on a pitch at Harrowside. Their successors in Blackpool included Sam Hague's Minstrels at the Indian Theatre on North Pier, Bobby Alandale's Premier Pierrots, Wylie-Tate's Super Pierrots, and Tom Vernon's Royal Pierrots on Central Pier.


These troupes were both contemporary and anarchic, family fun with a topicality born of the fact that all shows were live! The seaside Pierrot troupes were public property and were expected to fulfil certain expectations - they had to be smart, charming and available at all times. They were expected to perform whenever the management required (up to five times a day), in all weathers (if wet under the pier!) and certainly not to greet girlfriends or loved ones in public. They were the Boyzone and Take That and of their age!

Subject: RE: Ellen (Marks) Pulling - B: 1856- 1934


hello, how interesting - I knew James William Lawton was a singer as my aunt Marjorie who is now in her nineties is his step-grandchild - Annie Vivian (Pulling)1892 was her mum. A number of Ellen's girls were in the chorus line in Liverpool - no detials unfortunately but son William Lawton apparently went on to be a soldier and lived in Manchester with a Spanish? wife, Florence Edith Lawton had a long standing extra marital affair with a dentist somewhere in the south of england where he paid for a house she lived in and family rumour was that she died either having an abortion or giving birth, all very sad as marjorie loved her and said she sparkled.


The family moved on to have a newsagents shop 108 Gidlow road, Walton West Derby. I'm sorry I don't know much about james more than that really other than him being born in yorkshire but I'd love it if you did and could fill in some gaps - my email is fairysharp@aol.com - I've taken a break from the ancestry subscription at the moment it was beginning to rule my life !! - Best Wishes - Jenny


Auntie Marjorie moved to Scotland last year (2009) from Crosby where she lived most of her adult life - gone to live with daughter, Vivian and a bit frail and forgetful these days.


I have a gap from 1911 - 1919 on the whereabouts of Ellen and James, from the 1911 census the next thing I have is when Ellen was listed as a widow / housekeeper on an incoming ship to liverpool from New York and travelling with Florence who was listed as theatrical - another daughter Lydia emigrated there after marrying Emlyn Richards - address 228 Fisher Avenue, Richmond in 1920. For many years Ellen went back and forth from America to visit her but died while living with Annie - Marjories mother - What a horrible thing to happen to james, hope they hadn't had a row you'd never forgive yourself
