Apparently, James Claydon also paid for the passage of Herbert, Charlotte and Mary Ann Cotten. The ship's captain was Robert Harper Griswold of Old Lyme, CT.
NOTES:
James Claydon was the eighth known child of Laurence and Mary (Turner) Claydon. In the Claydon parish transcripts for Fringford, there is an entry for the baptism of James Claydon, son of Laurence and Mary Claydon, on October 5, 1806. The transcripts also have a record of the marriage of James Claydon and Mary Leech, on October 11, 1831, in Fringford. In the FamilySearch.org IGI is an item for Mary Leech marriage to Jas. Claydon in 1831, Fringford, Oxfordshire [IGI.]
It is known that James did not stay in Fringford. He had at least one friend in the London area, James Banks, who sent a letter to James in 1874. In the 1841 British Census, Hendon, Middlesex, there is a dairy farm valued at 300£, with household headed by James Clayton, male, age 35, not born in county; Mary Clayton, age 30, not born in county; and Thomas Clayton, male, age 25, ag laborer, not born in county [Class: HO107; Piece 657; Book: 5; Civil Parish: Hendon; County: Middlesex; Enumeration District: 2; Folio: 36; Page: 27; Line: 19; GSU roll: 438774]. The ages for James and Mary are correct. In other censuses, James is known as a farmer. Thomas Clayton may be his younger brother (although the ages differ by a few years), who was recently widowed, with kids staying with relatives in the hometown of Fringford. Thomas is not found in this census in that area. Also, James' nephew Philip was living in Hendon in 1851, while James & Mary, as well as Thomas were not. Phillip's son James was born there about 1847, and Phillip's wife Emily was born in the Hendon area.

The image above is a handwritten note from Mrs. Yiska Schmaman, the daughter of A.Z. Idelsohn (d. 2007), on the dedication page of a copy of the Thesaurus of Hebrew Oriental Melodies Vol. IX. In the note, Yiska writes that her mother, Zilla, contributed over seventy traditional Hasidic melodies to the HOM IX. Idelsohn did not document the name of his informant for the Sadigora niggun on which Hava Nagila was based. In light of the limited documentation, we can only speculate about the possibility that Idelsohn recorded the niggun from his wife, Zilla. Yiska Schmaman's note reads:
A tribute to my dear Mother, Zilla Idelsohn (born Schneider [1882-1958]), she was “a woman of valor,” whose marriage vows were ‘sacred.’ Her devotion and loyalty were—irrevocable. “I will be faithful to you, my husband, till death-do-us-part." She contributed over seventy Chassidic traditional melodies recorded in this ninth “Thesaurus” volume. Cantor H. Schneider instilled the real Jewish sentiment in Chazzanut and melodic line to his son-in-law, A.Z Idelsohn [wording taken from Idelsohn's autobiographical sketch first published in the Jewish Music Journal 2, no.2 (1935): 8-11]. “Ima”—your love lives in my “heart.” Yiska.
day! How I pray for it! And how the dreams and prayer make light the burdens I have borne since I was a student at Government College! The pain is to have spent a lifetime on this and to see no light at the end of the tunnel. Well, not quite. Something has happened to the Ogoni people in the last 4 years which owes itself to me as initiator, but to all the rest of you as well. And it is surely a good feeling that the Ogoni have been put on the world map and that the people have been empowered to fight for their rights. The fruit of all that will depend on those who come after me. I see an Ogoni star in the sky, an example to other denigrated communities in Nigeria and Africa. Whether it will shine everlasting, I cannot foresee. It is still early days. But I wish it with all my soul.
I’ve been rambling, but it is a sign of my mind. I was thrilled to bits to receive your [note?] and Zina’s undated letter (trust her not to date her letter). That is because I thought you had all abandoned me since I had not heard from you after your first letter. And given the emotional investment I have in you all, you can understand the way I felt. I feared very much that the propaganda against me might have influenced you. A detainee tends to fear the worst since he is in no position to receive proper information

My dear Canon
Thank you so much for your letter, telling me about your sister. You have all been much in my thoughts and I hope that you and Mrs. Evans have been helped through the long sad strain of this summer. You know how closely I have been with you in spirit - and I doubt if a day passes without my thoughts turning towards you as memories of my happy 8 1/2 years in Warwickshire rise before me. In one sense, you are visibly before me, daily, in that long catalogue of persons and places in the "George Eliot" Dictionary which I am steadily revising, at the compilers' request. I have nearly finished my share in the work, but there are a few points about which I should be most grateful for your help, if you can spare time to give it. For your convenience, I will write out the questions in columns, leaving spaces for whatever you can most kindly send, in the way of answers. I am thankful that this Dictionary is forthcoming- George Eliot as you know, has been my favourite novelist and beloved companion for nearly, (will you believe it?) 40 years, ever since I was given a copy of Middlemarch in 1884 - so I am one who rejoices at the study which her writings attract.
I have been asked to hold the Higher Education classes in English Literature under the County Council for Malvern, for this coming term, and the next, till Easter - and have chqsen my subject,a detailed examination of each of George Eliot's novels and poems, up till Christmas:- and afterwards, the longer poems of Wordsworth (i.e. "Prelude" and "Excursion", with perhaps a few others).
And, as I know you take a very kind, almost Fatherly interest in me, I will tell you what not many know, that I have been asked to preach in Westminster Abbey - though it will indeed be an ordeal!
However, I hope to be helped in this and all else - for what can we do, alone?
With our kindest remembrances and love to you both, and hoping that you are keeping up well, and that you and Mrs. Evans may get some little restful change, away together, somewhere, before Winter sets in,
Ever cordially yours
Hubert H. M. Bartlett
P.S. I have had a most interesting correspondence, as to the prototye of "Lydgate" in Middlemarch- Did I tell you of this - and of the famous man who admits that he may have been in some respects in George Eliot's mind, when she described Lydgate? Have you seen all Miss Mudge's notes on the G.E. characters & places? She ought to submit something to you, before it goes to the press. There are various family statements.

A coworker mentioned her mother's pressure cooker the other day, and I remembered that I still had the instruction & recipe book for my mother's pressure cooker. While looking for that, I found the recipe book for her crock pot, with this gem inside.

INTRODUCTION. This is a scan and transcript of a bunch of old family letters from about 1820 to 1880. In the late 1870's, my 3rd great grandfather Henry Claydon packed up the family in Solihull, England (near Birmingham) and moved to Greenfield Center, New York, USA. Two others in the Claydon family came to New York before Henry: James Claydon, brother of Henry's father Thomas in 1848, and Thomas, son on James' brother William. James and 2nd wife Charity Rowland corresponded with Rowland/Greene and Claydon relatives in the USA and back in England. The letters contained a huge amount of family information that enabled the building of a detailed family tree. Some of the letters imply or describe life in England and the USA western frontier, including family, farming life, and religious life.

Solihull Warwickshire England
17 May 1874
My dear Brother James,
After so many, many years of separation from you, and above all after so many years often thinking whether you were dead or still living, it gives me unbounded [joy] as we to hear from you, and to receive a letter from you, telling me that you are still persuing the good old [end of page]
way leading to eternal life, where all who though faith & patience shall meet to part no more. Oh, my dear Brother James, if I never more all you here below. I do hope to meet you again when time and the things of time & sence shall be no more.
I shall treasure up with much care the letter I have just received from you & I do hope to be often guided by the good [end of page]
spirit & meaning of your very welcome letter, especially I hope to be guided by the quotation of holy scripture to which your letter refers, in as much as I plainly see, you thereby have my spiritual interest at heart, still while you live I hope and trust you will often write to one as your communications will prove a comfort & solace to my mind, as I am thankful to tell you that I hope through Grace Divine I am travelling through the Worlds rough [end of page]
way to the better World & oh if you & I meet there won't it be joyful to meet & hurt no more. I must tell you since you left England, about the year 1851, I met the Lord at my daily work, though the operation of his Holy Spirit wherein I was shown my guilt & danger my soul was troubled for some time at length I found pardon of sin and now do enjoy forgiving grace & a hope blooming with a blissful eternity, thanks therefor to God be given for all his mercies. As regards my family affairs, my children are grown up & about 4 years since I lost my wife but am now married again to another of a -ailable age & of a comfortable disposition in relation to this & the future state now no more from your loving brother, Thomas Claydon.
