Well, that only goes and hits me where I live.  I live in Cornwall,
and the story you tell rings a bell with me.  Cornwall has so many
natural coves and harbours that Pirates and Smugglers got rich
pickings in the past.  But for years, Cornwall did have a very strong,
very large Methodist community.  So, it was quite possible for there
to have been more than one.
