I understand the Moore family of Cronkbourne, Braddan, recruited weavers from the North of Ireland to work at the linen factory at Cronkbourne/Tromode. They were said to have invested in a mine in Ireland as well. Some local families such as (I think) the Arderns were descended from weavers, but I don't know which families came from NI.
