Afterwards one cow is allowed to him because it was taken away by robbers; it is forgiven him by the Earl (De Lacy compoti, 1295-6)) Abstract This paper attempts to reconstruct the patterns of seasonal land management in the granges, forest vaccaries and central 'pools' of the earl of Lincoln's Ightenhill demesnes in upland Lancashire. Two of the estate's Michaelmas accounts survive, dating to a period now seen as a watershed between the prosperous 'High Farming' period of the thirteenth century and the 'Crisis years' of the first quarter of the next. This relatively remote estate was geared to a cash economy, and the products were such as could well be produced under local conditions of climate, terrain and transport.

Both sides of the family had their roots in the Birmingham area. Presumably his parents met when they were both living in Handsworth and working in a chemist’s company; on their marriage certificate of 1915 his father is described as a despatch clerk and his mother as an assistant. By the time Maurice was born his father had risen to the rank of ‘Departmental Manager in Wholesale Druggists Warehouse’, a position he continued to hold until his early death aged 46 in 1934. Maurice continued to live with his widowed mother in the Sutton Coldfield area and later in Yorkshire until her death in Adel, Leeds, aged 79, in 1966. As the family was of modest financial means, the more so after his father’s death, all of Maurice’s schooling was local to Sutton Coldfield (Boldmere Council Infants, 1925–6: Green Lanes Senior Boys, 1926–30: Bishop Vesey’s Grammar School, 1930–8). At Bishop Vesey’s, as he was later to recount,1 two masters in particular influenced the course of his life; William Roberts, a ‘stimulating history master’ and William Sutton— ‘a terrifying and rigorous geography master who made map reading as natural and interesting as reading a novel or a play’.

  • A Bio-Bibliography Of
    1 A BIO-BIBLIOGRAPHY OF ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL HISTORY D.A. FARNIE and GEOFFREY TWEEDALE 5th Edition 2009 2 Preface to Fifth Edition This is the fifth edition of A Bio-Bibliography of Economic and Social History. Its originator and chief author, Douglas Farnie, sadly did not live to see its completion and publication. He died in Manchester on 21 June 2008, aged 82, following complications from heart surgery. The first edition of Douglas‟s Bio-Bibliography was published in Pat Hudson (ed.), Living Economic and Social History. Essays to Mark the 75th Anniversary of the Economic History Society (2001). It listed about 700 individuals. Characteristically, Douglas had been expanding and revising it ever since. It went through further editions, each more expansive than the last. This edition covers over 3,500 individuals. My involvement began casually in 2001, when I began passing Douglas obituaries and snippets of information for inclusion. The amount of information gathered pace as I began using electronic sources to fill gaps and to supplement the material that Douglas was still collecting from libraries and paper sources. Douglas never used a computer (or even a typewriter) and always preferred to use a pen. However, the world-wide-web fascinated Douglas and when it became apparent that it could transform the scope of the Bio-Bibliography, we began to collaborate on producing a much expanded fifth edition. A routine developed. From early 2007 until 27 March 2008, we met once a week at Manchester Metropolitan University Business School not only to revise the electronic copy of the Bio- Bibliography, but also to scour the web for new material.
