Whitlock Family Newsletter ISSN:0835:6734 WHITLOCK FAMILY NEWSLETTER 47644 Forester Road Subscription $20 ($25/£16 International) Tel:604/824-7450 Vol.34 No.4 RR#2, Sardis, B.C. per annum renewable January 1st Email:[email protected] Dec 2015 CANADA V2R 4M6 Published Mar.Jun.Sep.& Dec. Page 1 Website:http://www.whitlockfamilyassociation.com The past couple of months have been taken up with recording and cataloguing the collection of Yorkshire Wills I brought back from Salt Lake City in September. The problem with cataloguing new information is the Internet is always there and it always so tempting to go searching for additional details, While the collection of Yorkshire Wills added great new information to the WHITLOCK12 and WHITLOCK21 families it was the WHITLOCK57 family that added the most detail, much of it from those forays into the Internet. This issue of the Newsletter is primarily focused on this last Yorkshire family, The Whitelocks of Yorkshire and Delaware. The Wills included with this issue are both from this prominent Leeds, Yorkshire Quaker family. There were some 16th and 17th Yorkshire Wills from the Baldersby area of Yorkshire that were unfortunately not available in Salt Lake City and I was not able to acquire copies. In researching for the article on Isabella Ormston Ford and her Leeds Yorkshire, Whitelock ancestors for this issue, I came across two books connected to this part of the family. Both were about prominent Quakers. One was a present from Isaac Whitelock to his wife Hannah Whitelock Mar.5,1774 (R3962). The other was an auction item for a book that once belonged to Isaac Whitelock (1712-1781) of Lancaster, Pennsylvania in which were written the birth dates of Isaac and his wife and ten of their thirteen children and included a note his wife had three stillborn children not named. Most of this information was not in our files and I was very pleased to uncover this detail about the WHITLOCK57 family (R3963). I could see from the sides of the image of this page there was additional information relating to this family recorded in this book, I therefore sent an email to be passed on to the purchaser but have not received a reply. I am hoping the purchaser will be willing to share this additional information with us. Also while doing the above research I came across the extensive collection of research done by Charles Pease on descendants of Isaac Whitelock of Leeds, Yorkshire WHITLOCK57 family. This added a huge new section to this family. (X7701 & X7702) I was very pleased to see the items posted on Facebook by Victoria House relating to the gymnastic games in Glasgow and the performance by Max Whitlock who managed a Gold Medal performance, and became the first Brit in 103 years to win a gold medal at these games. We have been following Max’s career for a couple of years but have not yet determine which family is his. Our YDNA project continues to yield interesting results. We had two YDNA results come in last year from the Whitlock families of Wiltshire and Oxfordshire. Both these results showed Haplogroup “E” which is very rare in Britain and has origins in Spain, Morocco and Northern Africa. I heard recently from Eric Whitlock that his cousin Graham Holton has been doing research at a University in Scotland into the descendants of those who fought at the Battle of Bannockburn. This is part of the Battle of Bannockburn Family History Project run by the Genealogical Studies Postgraduate programme to mark the 700th anniversary of the battle. Several members of the Berkeley family fought in this battle and a descendent participated in the Project. Their Haplogroup was also “E”. As this family is one of the few in Britain that can trace their male line back before the Battle of Hastings in 1066 this pushed the arrival in Britain of this Haplogroup pre Norman conquest. They are now speculating that the Berkeley family may descend from a Roman Soldier with origins in Spain. Interestingly the Berkeley family still live in Berkeley Castle in Glocestershire and still own the land they were shown owning in the Domesday book in 1086. Our latest YDNA result was a 37 of 37 marker match for a descendant of John Whitlock & Agnes dela Beche who were married about 1454 - WHITLOCK02H family. We currently are awaiting results from two other tests which are expected in December. There have been some other great additions to our collection come in recently. Jennifer Hart provided a copy of the twelve page 1785 Will of Hugh Hughes of Hoddesdon, Hertforshire and the 1848 Will of his great-nephew Hugh (Whitelock) Hughes. Hugh Hughes was the uncle of Hugh Whitelock’s mother Frances Ann Hutchins. In his Will he left his considerable estate to Hugh Whitelock on the condition he took the Hughes name and arms. This answered a more than forty year old question of why Hugh Whitelock become Hugh Hughes. (R3909 & R3910) Jennifer also found Hugh (Whitelock) Hughes’ 1848 obit in the Hertford Mercury (NP1523) and notice of the change of name from Whitelock to Hughes in the St. James Chronicle 1795 (NP1524). WHITLOCK21 family. Whitlock Family Newsletter Vol.34 No.4 Dec 2015 Page 2 While not connected to the Whitlock family, my husband, Patrick acquired an original 1873 Indenture for the Shevington family of Derbyshire at a auction (R3957). We had a frame that fit it and it looks really great on the wall of my office. I only list it in case someone with connections to the Shevington family is interested in a copy. I was very pleased to receive a copy of Katherine (Burchette) Whitlock’s 1648 Will from John Cook. This person is the grandmother of the original immigrant to Virginia, James Whitlock (1650?-1716). While James’s father Richard was Katherine’s eldest son, she leaves him a legacy of £400 to be paid out in half yearly installments of £24 each. The rest of her children receive their legacies outright. I intend to create a transcript of this Will and include it in the March 2016 issue of the Newsletter. (R3961) Research by Robert Davis into the de la Beche family (860-1200) provided us with several lines of descent from this ancient Norman family (X7705). Galfridus de la Bec received a good portion of Hertfordshire for his services in the Battle of Hastings and it is assumed most of de la Beche families in Britain descent from him. Rita Silva has been working on plat maps for Union Co., South Carolina (R3960) and has put together a summary of all the families living on Browns Creek (X7706). The goal is to determine how Lott Whitlock fits into the Whitlock family in Union Co. The SCLAND file detailing all the references to Whitlocks in South Caroline pre 1830 continues to grow and becoming a more useful research tool. I came across an interesting item on the Internet regarding George Bickett Whitlock (1920-1944) who died in Belgium in WW2. His widow Byra Louise (Whittlesey) Whitlock was married in Paris in 1949 to John Hadley Nicanor Hemmingway the son of Ernest Hemingway and was the mother of Margaux & Mariel Hemmingway. WHITLOCK25 family. Our thanks to Eric Whitlock for his great collection of clips from the Somerset newspapers of the 1860's and 1870's (NP1527-NP1541) My thanks to everyone who sent in material this quarter. After forty-five years, our collection continues to grow. I also have another disc of research by Lawrence Otis that I have not tackled yet. I have attached renewal notices for 2016 and a financial statement for 2015. Many thanks to everyone for the generous donations this year $1,963!! Subscriptions cover about half the costs of running the Whitlock Family Association and the rest comes from donations. We paid down the debt by $1200. I am planning a fairly major update to the website in 2016 as I have not done one for a couple of years. We had 73 subscribers this year and many who just sent donations. I hope you will all be able to continue your support for the coming year. All much appreciated.

    Reading Groups Collection Multiple-Copy Titles Available for Loan Master list revised May 2019 Susan ABULHAWA - Mornings in Jenin (2011, 352 pages) Palestine, 1948. A mother clutches her six-month-old son as Israeli soldiers march through the village of Ein Hod. In a split second, her son is snatched from her arms and the fate of the Abulheja family is changed forever. Forced into a refugee camp in Jenin , the family struggles to rebuild their world. Their stories unfold through the eyes of the youngest sibling, Amal, the daughter born in the camp who will eventually find herself alone in the United States; the eldest son who loses everything in the struggle for freedom; the stolen son who grows up as an Israeli, becoming an enemy soldier to his own brother. Mornings in Jenin is a novel of love and loss, war and oppression, and heartbreak and hope, spanning five countries and four generations of one of the most intractable conflicts of our lifetime. Ayobami ADEBAYO - Stay with me (2017, 298 pages) Yejide is hoping for a miracle, for a child. It is all her husband wants, all her mother-in-law wants, and she has tried everything - arduous pilgrimages, medical consultations, dances with prophets, appeals to God. But when her in- laws insist upon a new wife, it is too much for Yejide to bear. It will lead to jealousy, betrayal and despair. Unravelling against the social and political turbulence of '80s Nigeria, Stay with Me sings with the voices, colours, joys and fears of its surroundings. Ayobami Adebayo weaves a devastating story of the fragility of married love, the undoing of family, the wretchedness of grief and the all-consuming bonds of motherhood.

Bibliography 124 i ABSTRACT This thesis examines the port of Liverpool, its merchant community, and the growth of the raw cotton trade from its initial rise c. 1770 to the end of the Napoleonic period in 1815. By constructing a large database from Liverpool import lists published in Lancashire newspapers, combined with surviving cotton planter, merchant, and manufacturer papers, this thesis analyses: first, the rise of Liverpool as a major British cotton port and the geographical shifts in the port‘s cotton supply from the West Indies to Guyana, Brazil, and the United States; then second, the organisation of Liverpool‘s cotton trade in the Atlantic basin and at home.

  • Changing Matter the Multiple Earths on This Catalog’S Cover Were Envisioned by a Machi- Ne Asked to Imagine What the Earth Looks Like
    Changing Matter The multiple Earths on this catalog’s cover were envisioned by a machi- ne asked to imagine what the Earth looks like. No two are exactly alike. Every shifting cloud and continent depicts a different iteration of how the Earth could be. The ways we build our world each day are similarly dynamic. Every de- cision made, no matter how trivial, branches into endless potential paths. More possibilities exist for our Earth’s future than any one person could come up with alone. Some paths will lead us to a world ruled by love and dignity, where life flourishes. Other worlds will differ still. Some will see us separate into opposing sides and destroy ourselves, while others will see us work together, ready to explore the cosmos. Many more future worlds remain dormant, until we bring them to life. Which world will you choose to help create? Trained on 14,142 images from https://epic.gsfc.nasa.gov/ using StyleGAN.

  • St George's School, Roundhay, Circa 1880-1917
    From Oak Leaves, Part 11, Spring 2012 - published by Oakwood and District Historical Society [ODHS] St George's School, Roundhay, circa 1880-1917 © by Neville Hurworth After the Corporation of Leeds bought the Roundhay Park Estate in the early 1870s, it was their intention to sell off the surplus land for exclusive villa sites, and in 1876 the land was sold which became the Park Avenue and West Avenue developments. The Corporation laid down stringent conditions as to what could be built there. William Tunstall, a prosperous Leeds coal merchant, bought Lot 10 in this sale, just over two acres of land near where West Avenue joins Park Avenue. In 1879 Tunstall asked Leeds Corporation for permission to build a school on his plot but his request was turned down, nor could he build a house on it for use as a school. However, the 1881 census, barely two years later, lists a building as 'High School' with schoolmaster, Theodore P. Brocklehurst, and a few boarding scholars. Its position in the census leaves little doubt that this was built on Tunstall's plot in Park Avenue. Theodore Percy Brocklehurst continued to run the school until the end of the 1880s when he left for London to train in holy orders. For many years in the early 1900s he was vicar at Giggleswick Parish Church. The 1891 census lists the school as 'St George's School' and the new headmaster was the Reverend Frederick Edward Crick MA. He was one of three brothers, Cambridge graduates, whose careers followed similar paths in teaching or in holy orders.

  • A History of Roundhay St John
    A History of Roundhay St John Content Page Content 1 Editor’s note 2 A brief history of Roundhay St John’s Church 3 History of the building known as Roundhay St John 5 St John’s Church Organ by Colin Briggs 12 Navigation To navigate direct to a chapter, click its title on this page To return to this Content page, click on the red Chapter Heading 1 Editor’s note Contributors have researched and documented this History recognising that Roundhay St John played a huge part in the history of the Township of Roundhay. The congregation’s and Clergy’s influence cannot be underestimated, or the importance of this Church to the people of the Township and the fast growing city of Leeds. We have tried to reveal a little of the people and events behind the Church and Township. Knowing something of the people behind the growing needs of this thriving community and their backgrounds helps us understand what may have led them to achieve their personal goals. Eventually Roundhay became a suburb of Leeds and Roundhay St John finally became a parish quite separate from Barwick in Elmet. St John’s Church is not just made of grey sandstone. It is what it stands for that makes it so special. Before beginning this research I did not appreciate its importance or the wealth of history surrounding it. I should especially like to thank Peter Oldfield for the material and research he donated, much of which appeared on the website www.stjohnsroundhay.co.uk, now redirected to www.oakwoodchurch.info; and Neville Hurworth for his knowledge encouragement and support.

  • 1914-1918 War Dead
    1914–1918 War Dead Commemorated at Roundhay St John A personal look into the lives of some. In time I hope to research others. Kenneth H Ives 9th December 1914 Lionel M Lupton 16 July 1916 Maurice Lupton 19th June 1915 Francis A Lupton 19th February 1917 Cuthbert Hartnell 16th July 1915 Derrick Ives 19th January 1918 Thomas Willey 1st July 1916 Charles R Lupton 9th May 1918 Edwin A Carlton 1st July 1916 Alfred Cuckson 8th November 1918 James H Simpson 3rd July 1916 Reginald E Rumsey 9th December 1918 World War One [WW1] lasted four years. Over nine million men served in the British and Commonwealth Army. One million did not return. Those soldiers fought in dreadful conditions including sucking mud trenches in Flanders, the beaches of Gallipoli and snow in Russia. The ‘War for Britain’ began on 4th August 1914 and did not stop until 11th November 1918. The disasterous Battle of the Somme which began on July 1st 1916 resulted in what some people call ‘the death of a generation’. Much of the Army’s paper work was destroyed by WW2 bombing raids with over 60% of the WW1 Army service records burnt or damaged. The records of the Royal Air Force and the Navy have survived quite intact. From research on line and through people’s own stories, museums, archives, newspapers etc we can gather other information. The hundreth anniversary of the start of WW1 inspired more to be made accesible. I have tried to look a little deeper into the lives of some of those who served and are remembered at Roundhay St John, Wetherby Road, Leeds.
