PRIVATELY PRINTED FOR THE WORCESTERSHIRE PARISH REGISTER SOCIETY. 1915. HAROLD B. LEE LIBRARY BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY PROVO, UTAH — — —— — 3ntrobuction. The Ecclesiastical Parish of Eastham. Eastham is in the Diocese of Hereford. The north-west corner ol Worcestershire seems to have come into this diocese as part of the Province of the Magasaetas, an Anglo-Saxon tribe, who drove out the Welsh in the seventh century. The greater part of Worcestershire lay in the Province of the Hwiccas, which formed the Worcester Diocese. In the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries this Parish appears to have included Hanley William, Hanley Child, and Orleton. In the " Valor Ecclesiasticus," 1535, Hanley William is entered as a separate Rectory, but in 1560 was united with Eastham. By Orders in Council dated 1909 and 1913, Hanley William, Hanley Child, and the Fulhams Estate, a detached portion of Eastham, were taken from Eastham and formed into an independent Parish. In 1911 the population of Eastham was 264, Hanley William 130, 2,i55,:;Hanley Hanley Child 169, and Orleton 64 ; the acreage of Eastham William 1,165, Hanley Child, including the Fulhams 1,191, and Orleton 546. In 1676 the population of Eastham consisted of 250 Conformists and 4 Nonconformists, and in 1801 the population was 384. The Registers.

Eastham, Hanley William, Hanley Child, Banns Books 1824 to present day. Notes on the Registers. Several briefs are entered ; other briefs appear in an Eastham Parish Book ; one in the latter for the Relief of Prisoners in Algiers in 1670 raised £'q 4s. od. in the Ecclesiastical Parish. Cases of drowning occur. Until 1793, when Eastham Bridge was built, the nearest bridges were at Tenbury, four miles distant, and Stanford, five miles. The fords in use were Whitcombe's, Hunt's, and Medway. Eastham R., 1723—4. Hop poolers (pullers or pickers) are men- tioned where a " strange woman " is buried. Eastham R., 1620. " Catturne, d. of Dorothy Treves was baptized at Hanley Child the first day of June, but borne at Rochford, and Mr. Tirer, curat there, was called before the Ordinary because hee did baptize the sayd child." Eastham R., 1733. Mr. Whitcombe is probably in error when he asserts that Hanley William buried at Eastham before 1586. Eastham R., 1735. The Parsonage built in this year is the present Rectory. Eastham R., 1741. Two amusing medical entries occur. Hanley William Book of Banns and Marriages, 1797- A Bridegroom is described as " late from Botany Bay." Hanley William R., 1798. " Christened Priscilla and William and baptized Mary, children of Samuel and Dorothy Philpots." The Commonwealth. Eastham. A " Register " was appointed in 1653. In the period 1653— 1 66 1 there are 21 birth and 7 baptism entries, the latter evidently inserted by a later hand, probably by the Curate, Mr. Bolton, in 1661. There are two marriages, one of which is stated to have been performed by a Justice of the Peace. Hanley William. A " Register " was appointed in 1653. In the period 1653— 1661 there are 26 baptism entries, the date of birth also being the Curate and Church- given ; from 1656— 1661 the Register is signed by wardens. Welsh Names. Many names which occur between 1584 and 1624 point to the residence in the parish of families of Welsh origin ; for example, ap Evan, ap Howell, ap Owen, ap Powell, ap Reese, ap Robert.

The dates represent the earliest and latest years when they are mentioned in the Registers. Cornewall, 1629— 1705. Mention is made later, under the Manor of Eastham, of this family which owned the Court House, Eastham. The Lady Ann Cornewall, daughter of Sir Gilbert Lyttleton, lived here after the death of her husband, Sir Thomas Cornewall, 12th Baron of Burford, in 1636 ; she was buried at Eastham 1656, and a brass tablet recording her death, mentioned by Nash as in Eastham Church, is now at Hagley. A History of the " House of Cornewall " by the ist (2nd creation) Earl of Liverpool and the Rev. C. Reade, was published in 1908. >^ Bury. 1582—1724. This family owned the Old Farm, Eastham. One branch appears to have become extinct in the male line on the death of John Bury of Kateshill, Bewdley, and the Bank, Shelsley. Nicholetts, 1574— 1703. This family owned the Hillwood, Childs- grove, Bastwood, and other property in Eastham. Nicholas, son of Nicholas, is mentioned under Hanley Child in the Lay Subsidy Roll of 1275, and John Nicholetts under Eastham in that of 1327. Richard Nicholetts, who died in 1620, resided at the Hillwood ; his son, William, lived at Hopton Solers, Avenbury, which became the family residence, having acquired the estate by his marriage with Ann, daughter and heiress of George Dudgen. Colonel Gilbert Nicholetts, p^^ grandson of William, was A.D.C. to the Duke of Marlborough ; Gilbert George, son of this Gilbert, acquired the Brontrees Hall Estate, Bishop's Frome, by his marriage with Elizabeth, daughter and heiress of Richard Stephens. The Hillwood Estate was sold at the beginning of the 19th century. The present representative of the family is Edward Cornewall Nicholetts, of Bitton, CO. Gloucester. Some account of this family is given in " Robinson's Manors of Herefordshire," and in the Genealogist I., 233. Shelton, 1689— 1772. This family purchased the Lower House Estate, formerly called Callow Hill, about 1730, and sold it in 181 3. The family is now represented by Captain Charles Shelton, R.M.L.I. Whitcombe, 1729—1862. Three Whitcombes were Rectors of the Parish, 1740—1780, and three Whitcombes occupied Eastham Court Farm about 1750—1852, which the family purchased early in the 19th century, and later sold to Edward Vincent Wheeler of Kyrewood. William Whitcombe, Curate 1729 and Rector 1740, built the present Rectory House in 1735 ; he was son of W^iliiam Whitcombe of the Morrey, Adderley, Shropshire ; his nephew, Edmund Whitcombe of Orleton Court, was High Sheriff of Worcestershire in 1777. One branch of the family is now represented by Robert Henry Whitcombe of Bewdley. Whitehead, 1808—191 5. Christopher Whitehead, Rector 1790, was son of Edward Whitehead, Vicar of Bolton. The family purchased the Grange Estate, formerly known as the Spout, and Bastwood, at the end of the 1 8th century. H. J. B. Whitehead, of Eastham Grange, late Lieutenant 7th Hussars, represents one branch of the family. vi. Eastham and Hanley William Registers. Newport, 1600—1838. Hanley Court is the residence of this family. The estate includes Hanley William and farms in Eastham, Hanley Child, and Orleton. Reference is made to the family under the Manor of Hanley William.

  • The Story of a Worcestershire Harris Family – Part 2: the Siblings
    Foreword Through marriage, the male line of descent of our Harris family has Our work on Part Two of our story has brought an added bonus. By links with Clark, Matthews, Price, Jones and Graves families. delving more deeply into the lateral branches of our tree, our findings have thrown new light on the family of our first known ancestor, John Through the siblings of the Harris males and the families of their Harris, who married Mary Clark in Eastham on 30 December 1779. spouses, we are also linked to such diverse family names as Apperley, Baldwin, Birkin, Boulton, Bray, Browning, Butler, Craik, Brian Harris, Cowbridge, February 2012 Davies, Davis, Garbett, Godfrey, Gore, Gould, Griffiths, Hall, Harrod, Hehir, Homer, Hughes, Moon, Passey, Pitt, Postans, Pound, Preece, Prime, Robotham, Sewell, Skyrme, Sprittles, Stinissen, Thomas,Thurston, Tingle, Turner, Twinberrow, Ward, Yarnold and many more. They are part of a network of Harris connections which takes us beyond the boundaries of Worcestershire, Herefordshire and the rest of the British Isles to Belgium, Australia, Canada and the USA. It may come as a surprise that two of the siblings of Edward James Harris who emigrated to Canada before WWI had already married and started a family in England before leaving these shores. They were George and Edith. Even more surprisingly, Agnes and Hubert, who arrived in Canada as singletons, chose partners who were – like themselves – recently arrived ex-pats and married siblings from the same family of Scottish emigrants, the Craiks.

  • Lime Kilns in Worcestershire
    Lime Kilns in Worcestershire Nils Wilkes Acknowledgements I first began this project in September 2012 having noticed a number of limekilns annotated on the Ordnance Survey County Series First Edition maps whilst carrying out another project for the Historic Environment Record department (HER). That there had been limekilns right across Worcestershire was not something I was aware of, particularly as the county is not regarded to be a limestone region. When I came to look for books or documents relating specifically to limeburning in Worcestershire, there were none, and this intrigued me. So, in short, this document is the result of my endeavours to gather together both documentary and physical evidence of a long forgotten industry in Worcestershire. In the course of this research I have received the help of many kind people. Firstly I wish to thank staff at the Historic Environmental Record department of the Archive and Archaeological Service for their patience and assistance in helping me develop the Limekiln Database, in particular Emma Hancox, Maggi Noke and Olly Russell. I am extremely grateful to Francesca Llewellyn for her information on Stourport and Astley; Simon Wilkinson for notes on Upton-upon-Severn; Gordon Sawyer for his enthusiasm in locating sites in Strensham; David Viner (Canal and Rivers Trust) in accessing records at Ellesmere Port; Bill Lambert (Worcester and Birmingham Canal Trust) for involving me with the Tardebigge Limekilns Project; Pat Hughes for her knowledge of the lime trade in Worcester and Valerie Goodbury

  • Parish Registers on Microfilm at the Hive Worcestershire Archive And
    Parish Registers on Microfilm at The Hive Worcestershire Archive and Archaeology Service 2012 Introduction to the Parish Register Handlist The Hive holds parish registers for Worcestershire dating from the mid 16th century onwards. The church registers contain records of Baptisms, Marriages and Burials. These records are a major focus of study for family, local and social history, as they contain a wealth of information. As such, much of the information has been copied for ease of access and use. This handlist is a guide to what is currently available in our Self-service area. What Information does the Handlist provide? The name of the village. The Civil and Ancient parishes are often the same but there may have been changes over time. The name of the church from which the registers originated. This can be useful if there is more than one in a particular parish. For example, in Worcester City there are several parish churches. The name of the civil parish which now encompasses the ancient parish. Information on what register copies are available on microfilm. Dates of any transcriptions either in volumes or available on CD. Please see our handlist to parish register transcriptions and our list of CD holdings for further details The Notes column provides further information such as where parishes have been formed out of others. The registers we hold largely relate to Worcestershire, but as the diocese of Worcester has changed over the centuries we may hold registers from other counties too. Some parishes will return the result 'no information'. This usually means that we do not hold the registers for that parish.

It was first collected in 1693 and continued to be collected until 1963. Before 1780 Land Tax Assessments are rare but from then until 1832 duplicates of the Land Assessments had to be lodged with the Clerk of the Peace and are to be found in County Quarter Sessions records. In 1798 the tax was fixed at 4 shillings in the pound and this was made as a permanent charge on the land. The landowners were given the choice of paying 15 years of tax in a lump sum and by 1815 one third of landowners had taken this option. Worcestershire Land Tax Returns can give: Rental value of the owner’s property. Names of owners and copyholders. Names of occupiers. Names or description of property or estate. The amounts of tax levied. Those owners exonerated from paying the tax annually.
