PROSPECTUS OF THE BOOK, AND A VARIETY OF ADVERTISEMENTS. 269 OBSERVE, The word " Mr" placed before the name of any Tradesman, as Grocer, Hiiberdasher, &c. indicates that the conjoined address is the residence, not the place of business, of the individual. The same thing is also indicated in other cases, by "of" so and so; the Christian name being then used. The names of closes, courts, wynds, &c. are all given in their respective places, whether the names of any persons residing in them are given or not ; and their exact situations, as well as those of places of greater impor- tance, are exhibited in a very simple manner, which, without any explanation will be easily understood at sight.

  • Railway Employee Records for Colorado Volume Iii

    Railway Employee Records for Colorado Volume Iii

    RAILWAY EMPLOYEE RECORDS FOR COLORADO VOLUME III By Gerald E. Sherard (2005) When Denver’s Union Station opened in 1881, it saw 88 trains a day during its gold-rush peak. When passenger trains were a popular way to travel, Union Station regularly saw sixty to eighty daily arrivals and departures and as many as a million passengers a year. Many freight trains also passed through the area. In the early 1900s, there were 2.25 million railroad workers in America. After World War II the popularity and frequency of train travel began to wane. The first railroad line to be completed in Colorado was in 1871 and was the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad line between Denver and Colorado Springs. A question we often hear is: “My father used to work for the railroad. How can I get information on Him?” Most railroad historical societies have no records on employees. Most employment records are owned today by the surviving railroad companies and the Railroad Retirement Board. For example, most such records for the Union Pacific Railroad are in storage in Hutchinson, Kansas salt mines, off limits to all but the lawyers. The Union Pacific currently declines to help with former employee genealogy requests. However, if you are looking for railroad employee records for early Colorado railroads, you may have some success. The Colorado Railroad Museum Library currently has 11,368 employee personnel records. These Colorado employee records are primarily for the following railroads which are not longer operating. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad (AT&SF) Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad employee records of employment are recorded in a bound ledger book (record number 736) and box numbers 766 and 1287 for the years 1883 through 1939 for the joint line from Denver to Pueblo.

The Ohio State University 1970 Approved by Adviser Department of English ACKNOWLEDGMENTS X wish to thank first those to whom I am indebted in Scotland. Had it not been for the assistance and co-operation of Mr. Antony S. Chambers, chairman of W. & R. Chambers Ltd, this study would never have become a reality. Not only did he initially give an unknown American permission to study the firm's archives, but he has subsequently provided whatever I needed to facilitate my research. Gracious and generous, he is a worthy descendent of the first Robert Chambers. All associated with the Chambers firm— directors and warehousemen alike— played an important part in my research, from answering technical queries to helping unearth records almost forgotten. Equally helpful in their own way were the librarians of the University of Edinburgh Library and the National Library of Scotland. Finally, the people of Edinburgh made a signif­ icant, albeit indirect, contribution. From them I learned something of what it means to a Scot to be a Scot. In this country I owe my greatest debt to my adviser, Professor Richard D.

DESCRIPTION Allanton is located just over 7 miles from Duns and just under 10 miles from Berwick-upon-Tweed. The population of Allanton in the 2001 Census was 86. The village is located within the Eastern Strategic Development Area (SDA) as defined by the SESplan. PLACE MAKING CONSIDERATIONS Allanton is located above the riverbanks of the Blackadder Water and Whiteadder Water which meet just north of the village. The character of Allanton is largely defined by the fact that it developed as an estate village of Blackadder House; splay fronted lodges display the old entrance and the village has developed around them in a linear fashion along the road.

  • Settlement Profile Jedburgh

    Settlement Profile Jedburgh

    SETTLEMENT PROFILE JEDBURGH HOUSING MARKET AREA LOCALITY POPULATION Central Cheviot 4,030 PLACEMAKING CONSIDERATIONS The historic settlement of Jedburgh was built either side of the Jed Water which runs on a north-south axis, and is framed by Lanton Hill (280 metres) and Black Law (338 metres) to the west and south west and by lower more undulating hills to the east. The Conservation Area of Jedburgh includes much of the historic core of the town including the Abbey and the Castle Gaol. Similar to Edinburgh Old Town in its layout, Jedburgh has a long street that rises terminating with the castle at the highest point. The High Street is characterised by a mix of commercial, residential and social facilities, the central area is focused around where the Mercat Cross once sat with roads leading off in various directions. Properties within the Conservation Area are built in rows with some detached properties particularly along Friarsgate. Ranging from two to three and a half storeys in height, properties vary in styles. Although the elements highlighted above are important and contribute greatly to the character of Jedburgh they do not do so in isolation. Building materials and architectural details are also just as important. Sandstone, some whinstone, harling, and slate all help to form the character. Architectural details such as sash and case windows (though there are some unfortunate uPVC replacements), rybats, margins, detailed door heads above some entrances and in some instances pilasters all add to the sense of place. Any new development must therefore aim to contribute to the existing character of the Conservation Area.

The following chapters appeared in the pages of " The Scottish Chronicle " in 1915 and 1916, and it is owing to the courtesy of the Proprietor and Editor that they are now republished in book form. Their original publication in the pages of a Church newspaper will explain something of the lines on which the book is fashioned. The articles were written to explain and to describe the origin and de\elopment of the Armorial Bearings of the ancient Dioceses of Scotland. These Coats of arms are, and have been more or less con- tinuously, used by the Scottish Episcopal Church since they came into use in the middle of the 17th century, though whether the disestablished Church has a right to their use or not is a vexed question. Fox-Davies holds that the Church of Ireland and the Episcopal Chuich in Scotland lost their diocesan Coats of Arms on disestablishment, and that the Welsh Church will suffer the same loss when the Disestablishment Act comes into operation ( Public Arms).

It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

INTRODUCTION Any statesmanlike and practicable attempt to settle the disposition of the property of the Scottish church at the Reformation had to take into account not only the financial needs of the protestant congregations but also the compet- ing claims of the crown, the beneficed clergy, the nobility and the gentry to share in the ecclesiastical wealth.

    Paisley Commercial School

    RLHF Journal Vol.5 (1993) 5. Troubled Times John MaIden The period between 1520 and 1620 was one of radical change on the religious front when not only did the method of worship alter, but also the administration of the local economy moved into secular control. By 1520 the Monastery and Abbey of Paisley were under the control of Abbot Robert Shaw who was elected Bishop of Moray in 1525. Shaw was the nephew of the previous Abbot, the builder George Shaw, and saw the position of Abbot and the worship in the Church at its height of power, ceremony and colour. It is often forgotten that the churches were full of colour, as today we are used to the austere plain stonework and lack of ornament. An example of the richness of the fittings in the Abbey at this period is given by the printed, and coloured, Missal presented by one of the Monks, Robert Kerr, to the altar of the Virgin in the early 1550's. The high quality of the text, printed in Paris, and the jewel-like appearance of the illustrations gives a hint of the grandeur on public view. Now in the care of the National Library of Scotland, this Missal is the only known service book to survive from the Monastery. Shaw was succeeded, as the last religious Abbot, by John Hamilton, a young monk from Kilwinning, who was the illegitimate son of the Earl of Arran. Hamilton became one of the outstanding figures during the time of crisis which led to the dissolution of monasteries in Scotland.
