Following the decline of Manx as a community language on the Isle of Man during the 19th century, interest in the language was renewed, most notably among educated men in the town of Peel, where it was still common to hear Manx spoken by the fishermen. Goodwin began learning Manx in the autumn of 1893 and although his illness confined him to his bed for much of his life, he nevertheless studied Manx grammar and idiom in great detail with the help of "dictionary and Scriptures". Goodwin began teaching Manx in Peel, where the earliest iterations of First Lessons in Manx "for blackboard use" were written. Along with several other prominent members of the Manx language revival such as J. J. Kneen and Dr John Clague, Goodwin was a founding member of Yn Çheshaght Ghailckagh in 1899.

Following the decline of Manx as a community language on the Isle of Man for much of the 19th century, renewed interest in the language occurred most notably among educated men in the town of Peel where it was still common to hear Manx spoken by the fishermen. Although Clague was in the south of the Island, there were still many native speakers and by talking to them, he taught himself the Manx language as part of his effort to preserve traditional Manx culture. Clague spent decades travelling throughout the south of the Island, speaking to the members of the community who could speak Manx or remember the traditional Manx songs. Along with several other prominent members of the Manx language revival such as J.J Kneen and Edmund Goodwin, Clague was a founding member of Yn Çheshaght Ghailckagh in 1899 in Peel.
