    Skidmore Lead Miners of Derbyshire & their descendants 1600-1915 Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study 2015 www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com [email protected] SKIDMORE LEAD MINERS OF DERBYSHIRE, AND THEIR DESCENDANTS 1600-1915 by Linda Moffatt 2nd edition by Linda Moffatt© March 2016 1st edition by Linda Moffatt© 2015 This is a work in progress. The author is pleased to be informed of errors and omissions, alternative interpretations of the early families, additional information for consideration for future updates. She can be contacted at [email protected] DATES Prior to 1752 the year began on 25 March (Lady Day). In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter. BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS Databases of all known Skidmore and Scudamore bmds can be found at www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com PROBATE A list of all known Skidmore and Scudamore wills - many with full transcription or an abstract of its contents - can be found at www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com in the file Skidmore/Scudamore One-Name Study Probate.

  • The Parish Church of St. Philip, Chaddesden a Celebration of Forty Years of Parish Life 1955 - 1995 by Anne Sherwood and Roy Farthing
    The Parish Church of St. Philip, Chaddesden A Celebration of Forty Years of Parish Life 1955 - 1995 by Anne Sherwood and Roy Farthing A New Parish During the dark days of the Second World War Britain's energies were focussed upon survival. However, as the war came to an end and daily life recovered a sense of normality people became increasingly optimistic about the future. As a response to the optimism and to fulfil the needs of ordinary people for solid security Britain began to build houses. The late 40s and early 50s saw the dawning of the housing estate age. Councils up and down the country encouraged the building of homes to reflect and to promote security and prosperity. Derby, like other Midland towns and cities, began to set aside large tracts of land for the building of homes and the establishment of whole new communities. These houses were not the austere terraced homes built by the Victorians to satisfy the needs of a rapidly expanding labour market with scant regard paid to the needs and comfort of the occupiers. Most of the houses built during the late 1940s were semi-detached homes with their own gardens front and back and were get on networks of streets and avenues. It was during this period that plans were made to extend the housing built during the previous - decade along Max Road and its surrounding area. The new housing around Taddington Road was planned to consist of low-cost homes suitable for families. Perched on high ground overlooking the town, the area was given character and identity by naming the streets after Peak District villages and towns and demarcating the property boundaries with low stone walls reminiscent of the dry stone walls of the Peak District.
