  • The Hancocks of Marlborough
    THE MAGAZINE OF MARLBOROUGH'S COMMUNITY AND CHURCHES NUMBER 649 JUNE 2015 The Hancocks of Marlborough The Hancocks of Marlborough were a remarkable family. They came to Marlborough, like many other tradesmen, directly after the fire of 1653 to profit from the rebuilding, and they stayed and prospered. A hundred years later James Hancock was born and he grew up to be a highly regarded cabinet maker, timber merchant and upholsterer with a well equipped workshop. He was also fertile, fathering 4 daughters and 8 sons, of whom only 6 sons survived to adulthood, the remaining 6 children all succumbed to smallpox, consumption or other childhood killers (though one of the girls survived almost to complete her cabinet making apprenticeship, and the family treasured the door she had made). All the children were well educated at the Marlborough Academy, run by the dissenters (although James was an Anglican and a parishioner of St Peters) and more forward looking than the grammar school. When James closed his businesses in the dreadful depression following the end of the Napoleonic Wars (exacerbated by the terrible harvests consequent on the 1815 Mount Tambora volcanic eruption - see Turner's sunsets for graphic evidence), two of the boys went to America and dropped from the record while the other 4 went to work in London. Between them they founded the British rubber industry, built the first steam vehicles to carry passengers on public roads (see cover picture), developed the gutta-percha insulation for the cross channel and transatlantic telegraph, exhibited at the Royal Academy and much else besides.

The editor, in his small way, has shown such devotion, as demonstrated by the photograph on the next page. Here, however, we are concerned with weightier contributions. Botanical devotion is well illustrated by a book published in 2005, which should be on everyone’s shelf. This is The Secret Life of Trees by Colin Tudge (Penguin 2005). It provides a comprehensive run-through of all the tree families in the world, showing how they relate to each other, and provides much interesting information about individual species. In addition, it gives a clear and up-to-date account, not only of the botany of trees, but of many of the key concepts of botany in general. Classification, plant names, evolution, the origin of life, the behavior of chromosomes and DNA, photosynthesis, what happens to water in plants, absorption of materials from the soil, growth, reproduction, hybridisation, toxicity, how plants respond to outside events and to each other, plant diversity, predator-prey relationships, other interactions with animals, and chemicals produced by plants are all described and explained clearly and interestingly, and their relevance to trees discussed.
