Description: DDX is a miscellaneous collection of antiquarian material relating to the East Riding of . DDX/16 comprises the bulk of the collection at almost 400 items deposited by Norman Higson, former County Archivist of the East Riding Record Office and Hull University Archivist; DDX/58, comprising just over 30 items deposited by R W S Norfolk; DDX/60, circa 50 items deposited by Sir Christopher Courtney and DDX/108, one single item deposited by A E Norfolk.

The manuscripts in DDX are very varied, but they fall into several main categories. Firstly, there are a number of papers relating to landholding East Riding families. DDX/60 is entirely composed of items relating to the Courtney family of , including wills, letters, diaries, accounts and title deeds of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. DDX/58/30-3 contains material relating to the Hildyard family of Winestead including a 17th century ledger containing pedigrees and biographical notices. DDX/16/208-12 and 241 is xeroxed material relating to the Legard family of Anlaby including pedigrees, a manuscript history of the family and a volume in the possession of Sir Thomas Legard of Scampston Hall in 1970 including some manorials records. The collection also contains miscellaneous material about the Boynton family of at DDX/16/200, 207, 217, 222, 228, 239, 248-9, 342, 346, 368-9. The Raines and Iveson families are represented at DDX/16/342-3, the Watson family (of Scarborough?) at DDX/16/240 and DDX/16/65 is a calendar of four documents relating to John Overton of Easington between 1679 and 1693.

Although DDX contains material relating to many places in the East Riding, there are concentrations of material for Beverley and Cottingham as well as the odd item for Hull such as title deeds for Chariot and Hope streets at DDX/108/1, the registers for electors in 1880 (U DDX/58/8-17) and the Hull telephone directory for 1923 (U DDX/16/313). The Cottingham material is varied and includes a plan, some enclosure material and some photographs (DDX/16/53, 128-34, 195-7, 220-2, 242, 360). Items for Beverley are more idiosyncratic and include a handbill advertising a vacancy for a jailer in 1814 (there are a number of other handbills and circular letters), poll books, town journals, local almanacs and a programme of the Beverley Picture Playhouse in 1913. There is also a xerox copy of a guide to the medieval carvings of minstrels in the minster by Professor Gwynne McPeek (U DDX/16/247, 262-316, 349-50, 375-81). Maps and plans in the collection include a copy of the earliest chart with soundings taken around the , a copy of a map of in 1828, a copy of a plan of Harswell in 1719 and maps of East Riding deserted medieval villages (DDX/16/122, 194, 198, 206, 335, 338). In addition there is material on drainage and navigation (U DDX/16/59, 216, 250-61) and railways, in particular the Hull- line (U DDX/58/1-5).

One of the strengths of this miscellaneous collection is printed material for the local region. It includes acts of parliament, a 19th century cookery book, a 1914 soldier's pay book, playbills,

page 1 of 53 Hull History Centre: Miscellaneous Local History Collection price lists, bus timetables, local newspapers and journals (especially for 1905-31), bills from local inns and original typescripts, as well as xerox copies, of articles and pamphlets of local history value. For example, there is a copy of Robert Addison's History of Leavening (1831) (U DDX/16/3-13, 17-35, 67, 135, 137-47, 175, 177, 180-93, 199, 246, 262-334, 337, 370-4, 383). The institutional material in the collection is varied. Items of interest for local studies of religion include methodist circuit plans (1777-1860), the Yorkshire branch notes of the Wesley Historical Society (1963), Ann Emery's thesis on methodism in Cottingham (1970), a list of papists for 1744, a copy of the chartulary of the priory of North Ferriby, plan of the foundations of Haltemprice priory as well as some charity commissioners reports (U DDX/16/39-52, 63-4, 69, 150-8, 218-19, 339-41, 348). Items of interest for studies of local education include A history of education in Leven (1968) by Geoffrey Braham, material on the foundation of the free grammar school at Halsham in 1584, material on Cliffe school in 1966, material on Leven church school in 1966 and on Beaumont Street school in 1840, schools in the early 19th century as well as material collected from Hull University's Local History committee. The mathematics exercise book of Ann Lamb of Rudston from circa 1850 is a single item of interest especially for those researching women's education (U DDX/16/60- 2, 68, 148-9, 159, 176-7, 227, 225-6, 243-4, 361-7).

The collection contains a few title deeds as well as medieval charters, most notably between U DDX/16/230-6. U DDX/16/1 is a title deed dated 1360. Copies of charters allowing William de Stutevill and Thomas Wake to hold markets in Cottingham are at U DDX/16/353-5. Later material includes originals and copies of settlements and leters patent (U DDX/16/57-8, 136, 347) and there is an interesting copy of a letter in the Egerton manuscripts from Robert Burton to Thomas Barrington dated 29 Oct 1643 at U DDX/16/2. Finally, the collection contains a few items of unique historical interest such as material about the execution in 1770 for piracy of Edward Pennell and others (U DDX/16/245), an English propaganda pamphlet in German dated 1940 (U DDX/16/66), a German copy of the ordnance survey for Hull dated 1941 (U DDX/16/351) and programme notes for Radio from September to December 1972 (U DDX/16/359).

U DDX/58/30-33 P hotocopies of the Hildyard Ledger Books 1971-1979 of the Seventeenth Century

Historical Background: The origins of the Hildyard family are not certain. Some pedigrees trace the family back to the eleventh century on dubious evidence. It has been suggested that the name Hildyard came from the Saxon Hildegardus and a Robert, son of Hildegard, did hold land at Hedon in the early thirteenth century. However, other writers suggest a link with the name Hilliard at the time of the Norman invasion and still others suggest that the Hildyard family came from Essex in 1370 (Miller, Winestead, pp.74-5; Ross, 'The Hildyards', p.232; Legard, The Legards, p.202).

Norman James Miller, using the originals of the copied material held at DDX/58, constructed a pedigree in 1932; this offers as a first secure start for a family tree, one Robert Hildyard, who married Joanna de Scures and was granted Riston manor by her father in 1275. His son, Robert, was succeeded by Thomas, whose only son, also Robert, died without issue. However, his daughter, Catherine, married her cousin, John Hildyard of Arnald and Normanby and their son, Peter or Piers, carried on the family name. Their son, Robert Hildyard, married (secondly) Isabel Hilton who was one of two heiresses to the Winestead estates of the Hilton family. The Hiltons had owned land at Winestead for 10 generations and the main estates thus came into the hands of the Hildyard family through Isabel with the failure of the male Hilton line (Miller, Winestead, p.82 and pedigree; 'Hildyard, 'Winestead Hall'; Rollit, 'Winestead church', p.176; Ross, 'The Hildyards', p.202).

Isabel Hildyard was left a widow in 1428 and inherited only on her father's death four years later. For the next two decades she lived at the moated medieval manor house at the southern end of Winestead village. Her son, Robert, married first Catherine de la Haye and then Agnes Creyke. He was at the battle of Towton in the early stages of the wars of the roses and some pedigrees assert that he died there in 1461. However, there is evidence to suggest he was involved in several more risings and did not die until 1489. His son, also Robert, was involved in the Lincolnshire risings of 1469-70 and seems to have changed sides. In 1483 he was knighted at the coronation of Richard III. He and his wife, Elizabeth Hastings, had close to 20 children and at least one of their sons was also involved in wars at home and abroad. One of their sons, Peter (Piers) married an heiress, Joan de la See, which brought the manor of Little Coates in Lincolnshire into the Hildyard family. Peter died 1500-1, around the same time as his father. Joan became a professed widow, taking a religious vow not to remarry and therefore protecting her right to control her property (Miller, Winestead, chpt. ix).

Peter and Joan's son, Christopher (b.1490), inherited the estates in the East Riding and Lincolnshire and became sheriff of Lincolnshire. He was in royal service and was knighted in 1532. He was implicated in the risings against catholicism in the north (pilgrimage of grace), but submitted to the king's will and was one of the justices responsible for executing Robert Constable to whom he was related by his second marriage. He left a large family, and his son, Martin, succeeded to the estates when he was slain at the battle of Terrouen circa 1538 (Miller, Winestead, pp.97-107).

Martin Hildyard married Emma Rudston and left several children when he died in 1545. His youngest son, William, became recorder at York; another son, John, set himself up in Ottringham and his second oldest son, Richard, married Jane, sole heiress of her father, Marmaduke Thweng and their eldest son eventually inherited Winestead. Christopher, the page 41 of 53 Hull History Centre: Miscellaneous Local History Collection oldest son of Martin and Emma Hildyard lost his son in a tragic drowning accident, after which he was moved to demolish the medieval manor house and fill in the offending moat. He rebuilt the family home a mile away (Ross, 'The Hildyards', pp.232, 234; Crouch, 'The Hildyards', p.83; Miller, Winestead, pedigree).

Christopher Hildyard was knighted 1578 and died 1602 when his estates passed to his nephew, also Christopher, who was knighted in 1603. He was returned for parliament over a dozen times between 1588 and 1629 and married Elizabeth Welby, heiress of Henry Welby of Goxhill. He appears to have been an opponent of the forced loan, but died in 1634 before being forced to choose sides during the civil wars. His heirs were not so lucky and three of his sons ended up on the delinquency list. The eldest surviving son, Henry (b.1609), shut Winestead Hall and lived in Hull during the 1640s. Robert (b.1612) was on the privy council of Charles I and commanded Sir Marmaduke Langdale's brigade of horse; he was rewarded for this military service by being created baronet in 1660 by Charles II. Another son, Christopher John, was a major of horse in a royalist army. Only Christopher (b.1615) avoided involvement, managing to pursue his antiquarian interests in York until his death in 1694 (Miller, Winestead, pp. 139-142 & pedigree; Ross, 'The Hildyards', pp.235, 237; Crouch, 'The Hildyards', p.83; Legard, The Legards, p.202).

Henry Hildyard's younger son, Philip (who became chamberlain of the exchequer), inherited the Goxhill estates and these passed down through his heirs. His older son, also Henry (b.circa 1636), inherited Winestead on his father's death in 1674, but after embracing catholicism under James II he was forced to flee to France, eventually having to sell his inheritance from abroad. He died abroad in 1705, leaving behind six sons by his first wife, one son and five daughters by his second wife and a further eight children by a 'pretended wife'. The beneficiary of Henry Hildyard's misfortune and over-extended lifestyle was his uncle, Sir Robert Hildyard, who bought Winestead so that it then passed down through his heirs (Crouch, 'The Hildyards', p.84; Ross, 'The Hildyards', p.235; Miller, Winestead, p.152). Robert Hildyard was fairly wealthy, having first married Jane Constable, sole heiress of Christopher Constable of Hatfield. By his second wife, Ann Thackray, he had two sons, Christopher and Robert. Ann Thackray predeceased her husband in 1679 and in 1685 Sir Robert and both of his sons died. Both sons left children; Christopher's oldest son, Robert (b.1671), became second baronet and inherited Winestead. He was MP for Hedon; he was also responsible for demolishing the late Elizabethan house and building Winestead Hall in the 1720s. He died unmarried in 1729 and was succeeded by his nephew, also Robert (b.1716) (Hildyard, 'Winestead Hall'; Miller, Winestead, p.158; Crouch, 'The Hildyards', p.84; Ross, 'The Hildyards', p.233).

Robert Hildyard, 3rd baronet, came into the estates when only 13 and later married Mary Catherine D'Arcy. He completed his uncle's work on the hall and got John Carr of York to build the stable block in 1762, with the help of his wife's legacy, and lived there for over half a century. He died in 1781 and was succeeded both to the baronetcy and the lands by his son, Robert D'Arcy Hildyard, who proposed William Wilberforce as parliamentary candidate in 1807 and then accidentally counted him out at the hustings. He was high sheriff of Yorkshire for a while and died without issue in 1814 when the title became extinct (Miller, Winestead, pp.158-9; Legard, The Legards, p.203; Crouch, 'The Hildyards', p.84).

The Winestead estates now passed to his niece, Anne Catherine Whyte, daughter of his sister Catherine Hildyard and her husband James Whyte. Anne Catherine Whyte married Colonel Thomas Blackborne Thoroton and he assumed the name Hildyard to satisfy the terms of her uncle's will. He brought to the marriage considerable estates at in Nottinghamshire and in 1829 they were able to buy the hall built by Henry Maister in

page 42 of 53 Hull History Centre: Miscellaneous Local History Collection

Winestead. This second house, known as the White Hall to distinguish it from the red brick of the Hildyard family home, had been built in 1815 and stood on the site of the original houses of the Hildyard family prior to 1597 (the land had been sold to the Maisters in 1677). The purchase cost £120,000. The heirs of Anne Catherine Whyte and Thomas Thoroton continued to live in Winestead and Evelyn Hildyard was the last of her family to reside at the Red Hall.

In the early twentieth century the hall was owned by the Reckitt family and then in 1920 it became the property of the Horsley family who owned a timber company and felled all the trees. The hall was then sold to the council who pulled it down in 1936. One person who witnessed the destruction was Rupert Alec-Smith, whose father and grandfather had a share in Horsley Smith and Co; he was so disturbed by the loss of such a fine Georgian house that he salvaged one of the fireplaces and founded the Georgian Society for East Yorkshire, devoting himself from that time to the protection of the East Riding's Georgian heritage. The secretary of the society was a member of the Hildyard family and the Maister White Hall remains in the Hildyard family (Miller, Winestead, pp.159-60; Ross, 'The Hildyards', p.233; Legard, The Legards, p.205; Miller, Winestead, p.vi & pedigree).

U DDX/60 U DDX/60 Papers of the Courtney family of Beverley deposited by 1578 - 1972 Sir Christopher Courtney The most substantial material relates to John Courtney (1734-1806) and his son, the Reverend John Courtney (1769-1845). The bulk of the material for the former is at DDX/60/1-7 and comprises four journals ('Diary of Occurrences etc') for the years 1759-1767 and 1788- 1805, a letter book 1787-1791, a book of rentals 1796- 1806 and the household account book kept in the final two years of his life. The bulk of material for his son is at DDX/60/8-15 and solely comprises correspondence about the rentals and tenancy agreements on his properties in Beverley and other places. DDX/60/16 is the correspondence of his lawyer with his widow just after his death. Between DDX/60/17 and DDX/60/49 there are miscellaneous papers which include the wills of Richard Kirkby (1590), George Wilkinson (1616) and James Hall (1641), as well as a number of seventeenth-century sales and settlements, especially in Hessle, of the Baxter, Clarke and Hall families. Eighteenth century documents largely relate to the land ownership of John Courtney's grandmother, Elizabeth Nelson, and his mother's family, the Featherstones, all of Beverley. He inherited property from his uncle, aunt, mother and grandmother and a copy of a settlement (1764) relating to this considerable inheritance is at DDX/60/47. There is also an 1801 plan of his estate at DDX/60/38 and a plan of the lands belonging to his son in 1813 at DDX/60/42. DDX/60/50 is a bundle of letters dated 1769-1828; these are addressed to the older John Courtney, his wife, Mary Smelt (d.1805) and to the Reverend John Courtney. They come from the Smelts and Franklands (including Thomas Frankland, 6th baronet, MP and botanist), all members of Mary Smelt's family. They contain much family news, though letters from Major William Smelt (later General) and Lieutenant Leonard Smelt are very informative on the Canadian War of 1812 (he is very critical of the conduct of the army) and of a dangerous voyage to India in 1814 respectively. This bundle of letters contains biographical notes by Sir Christopher Courtney about the correspondents represented and family members mentioned in the letters. 351 items
