  • Records of the Sudbury Archdeaconry.
    267 RECORDS OF THE SUDBURY ARCHDEACONRY. BY VINCENT B. REDSTONE, H. TERRIERSAND SURVEYS. Constitutions and Canon,Ecclesiastical, issued in 1604, contain an injunction (No. 87), " that a T HEtrue note and terrier of all the glebe lands, &c., . and portions of tithes lying out of their parishes—which belong to any Parsonage, Vicarage, or rural Prebend. be taken by the view of honest men in every parish, by the appointnient of the Bishop—whereof the minister be one—and be laid up in the Bishop's Registry, there to be for a perpetual memory thereof." This injunction does not fix the frequency with which the terriers were to be procured by the Bishop, and, consequently, existing docu- ments of that• character are not to be found for any definite years or periods. It is evident by the existence of early terriers in .the keeping -of the Registrar for the Archdeacon of Sudbury, that such returns were made by churchwardens along .with their presentments• before the year 1604. The terriers at Bury St. Edmund's commence as early as 1576, whilst those in the Bishop's Registry at Norwich, date from 1627.. It is unknown from what circumstances the Archdeacons' Registrars became i)ossessed Of documents which the above mentioned canon dis- tinctly enjoins should be laid up in the Bishop's Registry.

  • Stephen Thompson Christ's College, Cambridge in a Series of Papers
    PAROCHIAL, REGIONAL OR NATIONAL? LOCAL POOR RELIEF LEGISLATION AND THE ENGLISH POOR LAW, 1660-1841 Stephen Thompson Christ’s College, Cambridge In a series of papers published since the 1980s, Richard Smith has combined evidence derived from early modern English poor relief records with the Cambridge Group’s reconstruction of English population history to challenge the view – widely held among certain demographers, policy-makers and politicians – that welfare transfer payments tend to induce certain kinds of demographic behaviour.1 In particular, he has called into question the theoretical claim that by curtailing transfer payments from the collectivity, the kin of those most in need of support, principally the elderly, would be both willing and able to fill the resulting welfare gap. Rather than placing demographic behaviour ‘downstream of welfare’, Smith has suggested that ‘demography might be viewed as assuming the status of independent rather than dependent variable.’2 Viewed in this light, the massive growth in poor law expenditure in late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century England and Wales should be understood as a response to, rather than a cause of English population change. Smith’s perspective constitutes a major challenge to large swathes of Malthus’s writings in which the latter repeatedly and emphatically condemned the Old Poor Law for its supposedly pro-natalist effects.3 More recently, Smith has endorsed Peter Solar’s thesis that the ‘national scope’ of the Old Poor Law, underpinned the growth of an economically mobile wage labour force; encouraged the consolidation of farms and facilitated the separation of smallholders from the land; provided local incentives for agricultural capital formation and industrial development; and kept population growth under control.4 In a working paper written in 2008, Smith suggested that as well as contributing to England’s precocious economic development by ‘enabling risk-reduced labour migration’ from rural to urban areas, the Old Poor Law also produced positive epidemiological consequences.

  • The Reduced Population and Wealth of Early Fifteenth
    THE REDUCED POPULATION AND WEALTH OF EARLY FIFTEENTH-CENTURY SUFFOLK by DAVID DYMOND, M.A., F.S.A. and ROGER VIRGOE, PH.D., F.R.HIST.S. IN THE SESSION of Parliament which met between 27 January and 25 March 1428, the Council governing England during Henry VI's minority asked for subsidies to pay for the continuing war in France and for the safe-keeping of the sea. In response the Commons made three grants.' The first was of tunnage and poundage for a year; the second a grant of 6s. 8d. per knight' s fee, a traditional and by now obsolescent feudal aid; the third was a novel, if not quite unprecedented, tax levied on parishes and not, like the normal fifteenth and tenth, on townships.' The last of these grants is the most interesting. Payment had to be made by each rural parish which had ten households or more. If the living of the church was assessed for clerical taxes at less than ten marks, householders were to pay half a mark (6s. 8d.); if it was assessed at ten marks or more, they were to pay at the rate of one mark (13s. 4d.) for each ten marks' valuation. In boroughs the householders of each parish were to pay at the rate of 2s. for every £1 in the valuation of the living. Those parishes which contained fewer than ten households were exempt from payment. It is not the purpose of this paper to examine the reasons for this peculiar hybrid tax, which was not repeated.' For the local historian the most interesting information in the returns is the listing of exempt parishes with small populations.

PLATE XVIII • (By krmission of the Librarian. Ihswicli Borough Library, Portrait of William Stevenson Fitch WILLIAM STEVENSON FITCH, 1792-1859 By THE REVD. A. H. DENNEY, A.K.C., B.A. William Stevenson Fitch was born on 17 November 1792 and was baptised in St. Lawrence's Church, Ipswich on 14 April 1793. He was the eldest child of a family of five; his father was Samuel Fitch, druggist, and his mother Elizabeth Stevenson; they occupied a shop in the Buttermarket on the corner of the Thoroughfare in which William was to continue the trade of Chemist and add to it that of Post Master. Samuel sent his son to Ipswich Grammar School before giving him a training in his shop which he took over on his father's death in 1815. He was appointed Post Master in 1837 and a number of letters in the Ipswich Borough Library show him in his dual capacity; Colonel Brooke gives him a for- warding address for his mail, Sir Stanford Graham asks him to make up a prescription and others complain of the late delivery of letters. According to 'Rambler' in the East Anglian Daily Times (8.12.1934) he was not as obliging or efficient as might have been desired; he disliked giving change and performed all his duties in a small room at the back of his shop measuring only twelve feet square.

  • The Introduction and Operation of the New Poor Law in Suffolk 1834-70
    The Introduction and Operation of the New Poor Law in Suffolk 1834-70 Angela Miller A thesis submitted for the degree of PhD History Department University of Essex January 2020 Acknowledgements I gratefully acknowledge the help and patience of my supervisor, Peter Gurney, for his constant support, positive criticism and helpful suggestions in the production of this thesis. In addition, my former M.A. supervisor, and now friend, Dr. Jane Pearson, has shown a continued interest in the development of this work and I owe her a debt of gratitude I can never repay. 2 Abstract This thesis examines the introduction of the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834 into Suffolk between the years 1834-71. It looks at the poor law system as it was immediately prior to this time and the increasing difficulties it faced in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. It also examines contemporary ideas on population growth, such as those popularised by Malthus, as well as those of Utilitarians and Noetics, all coalescing to bring about the change of 1834. It compares the situation in Suffolk with that in the rest of the country, looking specifically at the Houses of Industry and their adaptability to the new system and the particular impetus given by Dr. James Kay as Assistant Poor Law Commissioner in the county of Suffolk to achieving their conversion to Union workhouses. It examines the power structures surrounding the New Poor Law, particularly the relationship between the local Boards of Guardians and the central Poor Law Commission (and later Board.) It also looks at the power structures within the workhouse.

  • Alled the Iceni Or Cenomanni, Descended from the Cenomanni of Gaul
    SUFFOL . THis is a maritime county, bounded on the north by Norfolk, from which it is separated by the Little Ouse and the Waveney livers; on the south by Essex, the liver Stour forming the divtsion; on the east by th~ German ocean, and on the west by Cambridgeshire. Its figure is an irregular oblong-from Aldborou~h, o~ the east, to Newmarket, on the borders of Cambridgeshire, on the west, about forty-seven miles ir. length; and from north to south the extent is about twenty-seven miles: its circumference has been estimated at one hundred and furty-four miles, and its area to comprise 1,512 square miles, or 967,680 statute acres. In size it ranks as the eleventh county in England, and in population as the seventeenth. NAME and ANCIENT HISTORY .-In the time of the Romans the inhabitants of this part of the country were called the Iceni or Cenomanni, descended from the Cenomanni of Gaul. Under the Roman dominion it was included in the province of Flama Cmsariensis. Under the Saxons it formed a part of the kingdom of East Anglia, and was designated Suffolk from Sud-folk literally 'southem folk' or 'people.' The whole of this and some of the adjacent counties experienced little respite from foreign and domestic depredators till !lome time after the death of Edward the Confessor: this county, in particular, suffered much from Sweyne, King of Denmark, who spared neither churches nor towns, unless redeemed by the people with lru·ge sums of money; though, to compensate in some measure for this cruelty, Canute, his son and successor, shewed it particular kindness.

  • Suffolk Registration Districts and Poor Law Unions (1836)
    GENUKI: Suffolk Registration Districts 1836 Page 1 of 21 Contents Suffolk Suffolk Registration Districts and Poor Law Unions (1836) Registration districts of Suffolk in 1836, with maps and list of parishes, based on material compiled by Donovan J. Murrells. This archive may be freely reproduced, except for advertising, endorsement or sales purposes. Please acknowledge the source. Preface When working with the list of places contained in the index books on the shelves of the public search rooms at St. Catherine's House in London, I have long felt the need of continuity from pre-civil registration times. As I pursue a one name study the cost of pursuing the relevant certificates is prohibitive. How much more helpful it would have been if the compilers had known about the future generations of family historians and the use to which their efforts would be put. Perhaps they would have listed under sub-districts rather than the massive all-enveloping Superintendents Districts (RD's). But all my wishful thinking will not put the clock back and we have to work with the situation as it is. In 1946 I asked the Registrar General's Office if any maps or lists were available for study. The reply said that there were not but in any case they would have rapidly have become out of date. In an effort to overcome this difficulty I published a pocket size booklet setting out the registration districts and parish locations for Norfolk in March 1993. This complementary work covers the County of Suffolk also at a time when the area was first divided into Poor Law Unions and subsequently into registration districts, measures taken for the purpose of conducting the first name gathering census and for the civil registration of births, marriages and deaths.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract Twenty-seven Suffolk castles were built between 1066 and 1200. This thesis summarises the modem multi-disciplinary surveys of six of them, with the objective of identifying their location, morphology, form and function. The majority of Suffolk castles were built between the late 11^ and mid- 12^-century and reached their largest number during the civil wars c.l 135-54. However, a few remained operational after C.1200 and those that did are characterised as either royal or baronial caput castles. Moreover, almost all Suffolk castles were originally earth and timber, whereas the surviving examples were rebuilt in stone before c.l300.
