    WILLIAM FURMVAL, H. E. FALK AND THE SALT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, 1815-1889: "OME CHAPTERS IN THE ECONOMIC HISTORY OF CHESHIRE BY W. H. CHALONER, M.A., PH.D. Read 17 November 1960 N the second volume of his Economic History of Modern I Britain (p. 145), Sir John Clapham, writing of the chambers of commerce and trade associations which multiplied rapidly after 1860, suggested that between 1850 and 1875 "there was rather less co-operation among 'capitalist' producers than there had been in the more difficult first and second quarters" of the nineteenth century. He mentioned that in the British salt industry there had been price-fixing associations "based on a local monopoly" in the early nineteenth century, and added that after 1825 the industry "witnessed alternations of gentle­ men's agreements and 'fighting trade' " until the formation of the Salt Union in 1888. This combine has been called "the first British trust", but to the salt proprietors of the time it was merely "a new device, made easier by limited liability, for handling an old problem". (1) The purpose of this study is to examine in greater detail the business organisation of the natural local monopoly enjoyed by the Cheshire saltmakers in the nineteenth century and to trace the part played by "The Coalition" and the Salt Chamber of Commerce in fostering price regulation and output restriction between the end of the Napoleonic Wars and 1889.< 2 > 111 Op. cit., pp. 147-8; see also Accounts and Papers, 1817, III, 123, p. 22, and E.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. “FREE NEGROES” – THE DEVELOPMENT OF EARLY ENGLISH JAMAICA AND THE BIRTH OF JAMAICAN MAROON CONSCIOUSNESS, 1655-1670 by PATRICK JOHN NICHOLS Under the Direction of Harcourt Fuller, PhD ABSTRACT The English conquest of Jamaica in 1655 was a turning point in the history of Atlantic World colonialism. Conquest displaced the Spanish colony and its subjects, some of who fled into the mountainous interior of Jamaica and assumed lives in isolation. This project reconstructs the historical experiences of the “negro” populations of Spanish and English Jamaica, which included its “free black”, “mulattoes”, indigenous peoples, and others, and examines how English cosmopolitanism and distinct interactions laid the groundwork for and informed the syncretic identities and communities that emerged decades later. Upon the framework of English conquest within the West Indies, I explore the experiences of one such settlement alongside the early English colony of Jamaica to understand how a formal relationship materialized between the entities and how its course inflected the distinct socio-political identity and emergent political agency embodied by the Jamaican Maroons.

This project is part of a wider pan Cheshire audit of youth arts including; a separate document also for East Cheshire, a sub-regional and county wide audit in Cheshire as well as a report analysis recommendations for youth arts for the future. This also precedes the new structure of Cheshire’s two county unitary authorities following LGR into East and West Cheshire and Chester, which will come into being in April 2009 An audit of this kind will never be fully accurate, comprehensive and up-to-date.

The youth arts audit aims to produce a snapshot of the activity that takes place in West Cheshire provided by the many arts, culture and youth organisations based in the county in the spring and summer of 2008– we hope it is a fair and balanced picture, giving a reasonable impression of the scale and scope of youth arts activities, organisations and opportunities – but it is not entirely exhaustive and does not claim to be.

They were saved from destruction 1 last century by the antiquary Richard Henry Wood (1820-1908), a scholar associated for many years with local history studies in Cheshire and Lancashire, and now form part of the large and important manuscript collection which he brought together from many sources. A general survey of this collection, which was deposited in the Library in 1940 by Captain J. Hatton Wood, has been given elsewhere,2 and it is perhaps sufficient here to notice that, in addition to the Legh charters, it is rich in monastic documents (twelfth-fifteenth century) and rare seals,3 and contains several royal grants (the earliest dating from the reign of Henry I), as well as a considerable number of miscellaneous deeds, mostly pre-1500, relating to some twenty-five counties. The Cheshire element of the Hatton Wood MSS., excluding the Legh charters, is comparatively small, numbering only thirty-six documents. Certain of these, however, are worthy of note, among them being eight thirteenth-century charters of the Abbey of St. Werburgh, Chester, five leases (1562-1647) from the Master and Brethren of the Hospital of St. John without the North Gate, Chester, a letter from Burghley to Edmund Gammell, late Mayor of Chester (Oct.

  • The Western Design
    The Western Design When: 1654-1655 Combatants: England vs Spain Reasons: Protectorate England wishing to challenge Spanish power, religious motivations Other names: The Anglo-Spanish War Key battles and places: Hispaniola, Jamaica The earliest involvement of the professional British Army in the Caribbean came in the middle of the seventeenth century, when it was still solely the English Army. Oliver Cromwell, ruling England as Lord Protector of the Commonwealth, opted to challenge the greatest power in the Western World, Spain. The Spanish-American colonies in the Caribbean and in Central and South America had provided Spain with great wealth and it continued to be the dominant power in the New World. England, by this time, had a few Caribbean Colonies of its own, including Barbados, St. Christopher (St. Kitts), Nevis, Antigua and Anguilla. In June 1654, planning and preparation began in secret for a great military expedition to the Americas. The secrecy was such that it became known by the nebulous name of the ‘Western Design’. The exact motives for the expedition continue to be debated by historians and there are likely to be many contributing factors to the decision. Cromwell and his ministers could have been influenced by the economic advantages that the American colonies had afforded Spain, or wished to protect English trading vessels, which the Spanish frequently attacked. Religious motivations can also not be discounted; Cromwell himself, many leading figures of the Protectorate and a large number in England were ardent Protestant Christians, opposed to Roman Catholicism as practised in Spain and spread by them in the New World.

MILKING COWS AND HEIFERS Trade continues on an upward curve at Beeston where almost 150 milkers were presented for sale this month by our vendors, both old and new, who travel from all parts of the country to benefit from the good facilities we provide at our centrally located premises in Cheshire. As previously stated the amount of buyers we are able to call upon, for all commodities, is testament to the great choice they get at Beeston, which does not seem to be available anywhere else. The quality on offer this month was tremendous and demand was there from start to finish, with a marked increase once again on the month in the best and middle range heifers and cow trade was off the clock. Heifers were an absolute flyer with over half of the entry selling in excess of £1800 and rising to £2280, with 20 others selling for £2000 or more.
