Biography of the sitter, this portrait is of Eliza Ann Johnson Birtles which hung in her grandson''s home for many years. It was painted by the artist who was believed to be a Birtles relative. Eliza Ann Johnson Birtles (aged 17 ˝), marries Arthur Maddock in Liverpool, having eloped with him from the Isle of Man. She left Arthur in 1879 and took her two older children (George and Henry) back to the island where she gave birth to Emma. After the death of her father (1868) and grandfather (1861) it appears that Eliza (Birtles) Maddock was actively involved in the estate in Cazneau St, Liverpool (7 houses and a shop), where she lived with Arthur Hamilton Maddock from the time of their marriage in 1873, until she returned to the Isle of Man in 1879.

In 1881, Eliza is living with her mother and her three children at 36 Fort St, Onchan. James and Jane had seven children. Only four survived childhood Mary Ann, Emma Jane, Eliza Jane and James Wilson Birtles (b. 1831). In about 1845, James and Jane moved to Douglas in the Isle of Man. James, now nearly 50, rented Ballacubbon a farm in Richmond Hill, Isle of Man, leaving two brothers to carry on the family business in Liverpool.

James Birtles died in Douglas, Isle of Man in1861 leaving his widow Jane (Rycroft) Birtles. In his will it is he owned tea houses in Cazneau Street in Liverpool, and was very wealthy. On the birth record for his son James W. Birtles his father’s occupation is stated as a painter and plasterer. In the census records for the Isle of Man in 1851 his occupation is “Farmer”. Jane (Rycroft) Birtles died at Kirk Braddan, Isle of Man, 22nd Sept. 1875 (aged 80).

At the time of James Birtle’s death it appears that two of James and Jane’s daughters are deceased. Although Mary Jane (Birtles) Potts, at the age of 30 was living with her parents in 1851, by 1861 her two children Mary Ann and Eliza Jane are living with their aunt Eliza Jane (Birtles) Muncaster. Also deceased, daughter Emma Jane Birtles, who married Mathew Heallis and had a daughter, Eliza Jane in 1853. In the 1861 census Eliza Jane Heallis is 8 year’s old and living with cousins. She is later mentioned as a ward of Eliza Ann (Birtles) Maddock. James Birtles did not leave any legacies for his grandchildren.
