They emigrated to Cuba for 9 years, then to Norristown, Montgomery, PA in the coal-mining area, back to England, then to Rockingham Township, Scott, IA probably because of the tremendous coal-mining area in that part of the city. There were 60,000 TONS mined in 1860 and in 10 years that number would quadruple for trains, steamships, and factories.
