Hi :Eileen in this post did you include Isaac to show there is 2 James Monkmans' or are you saying Isaac is the father to the Manitoba James Monkman ? James son of Isaac was born 99 miles away from the Jame in Witby ( Driving distance between Flamingo Land Resort, Kirby Misperton, Malton, Yorkshire YO17 6UX, UK and Whitby, North Yorkshire, UK is calculated by google maps and it is 99 mi.

You need 2 hour to reach Whitby, North Yorkshire, UK from Flamingo Land Resort, Kirby Misperton, Malton, Yorkshire YO17 6UX, UK , if you are travelling by car.)
Also the James son of Isaac was born in Knapton ,East Riding.Yorkshire England that distance is (( Driving route: 49.99 mi (80.45 km) (1h 23min)

The shortest route between Whitby, North-Yorkshire, England, GBR and Knapton, East-Riding-Yorkshire-England is 49.99 mi (80.45 km) according to the route planner. The driving time is approx. 1h 23min. Half of the trip is reached in 54.21646,-0.43837. )) Hummm! Both born in 1774 all though Manitoba James used a few dates including 1771-1775 .
James (son of Isaac ) from Knapton married :26,Oct.1793 in Allerton,Yorkshire,England to Mary Jane Craven .Died:31 Mar.,1852, Peel County Ontario. this James had a son James Squire ,born 25,May,1807 in Allerston Yorkshire England. So Isaac is not the father of the Manitoba James that died in 1865 .
