  • Coventry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography
    Coventry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography is the national record of people who have shaped British history, worldwide, from the Romans to the 21st century. The Oxford DNB (ODNB) currently includes the life stories of over 60,000 men and women who died in or before 2017. Over 1,300 of those lives contain references to Coventry, whether of events, offices, institutions, people, places, or sources preserved there. Of these, over 160 men and women in ODNB were either born, baptized, educated, died, or buried there. Many more, of course, spent periods of their life in Coventry and left their mark on the city’s history and its built environment. This survey brings together over 300 lives in ODNB connected with Coventry, ranging over ten centuries, extracted using the advanced search ‘life event’ and ‘full text’ features on the online site (www.oxforddnb.com). The same search functions can be used to explore the biographical histories of other places in the Coventry region: Kenilworth produces references in 229 articles, including 44 key life events; Leamington, 235 and 95; and Nuneaton, 69 and 17, for example. Most public libraries across the UK subscribe to ODNB, which means that the complete dictionary can be accessed for free via a local library. Libraries also offer 'remote access' which makes it possible to log in at any time at home (or anywhere that has internet access). Elsewhere, the ODNB is available online in schools, colleges, universities, and other institutions worldwide.

  • Mg Car Club History
    MG CAR CLUB HISTORY The first complete MG Car Club History was compiled by the late Mike Hawke and published in 2000 to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the Club. The book was soon out of print, there was clearly a need for a replacement and Peter Browning volunteered to edit an enlarged and updated version. This is the first of a multi-part series. It is a little over six years since I put together a page of readers’ correspondence for The Light Car including the letter that started it all. It appeared over the signature of one Roy Marsh and was published in the issue of September 5, 1930. Why Not an MG Club? Being a very interested reader of The Light Car and Cyclecar, I notice that a number of one make clubs have been formed lately with very satisfactory results. Now Midget enthusiasts, what about an MG Car Club? There are hundreds of you and surely some very enjoyable social runs and trials could be arranged. Perhaps MG owners would let me have their opinions on the idea. Quite brief and to the point, it took immediate effect. That was as inevitable as the subsequent growth of the Club. You cannot have a lot of people rushing round the country in cars like MGs without wanting to get together. Various people wrote to various other people. HM Post Office was enriched by numerous pennies inserted in numerous slots and one or two more letters appeared in The Light Car. The upshot of it all was an announcement in that journal of an inaugural rally on October 12 for the purpose of formally bringing the Club into being.

PDF Booklet: 118-1 2 North Eastern Railway: The Buses 1903-1923 In 1898 a Light Railway Order was granted for the construction of a railway between Beverley and North Frodingham (the North Holderness Light Railway) in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The North Eastern Railway (NER) immediately acquired the responsibility for the construction and the passing of their Act of 1899 made them liable for the completion of the line within five years. As time dragged on, the cost of building the railway began to rise and finally it was decided to abandon the project, much to the dismay of the locals. As a result a tramway was proposed instead, but the costs of constructing a tramway were almost as high as constructing the railway, so a bus service was suggested as an alternative.

  • Founded in the Year Nineteen Twenty-Four March 1980
    March 1980 MOTOR SPORT Founded in the year nineteen twenty-four offices would be possible is something to be discussed. The point is that two-tier control of motoring sport is vital and should take place quickly. Note that there is no suggestion whatsoever that the RAC, which controls British motoring sport with the approval of the Government, should be overthrown; only that it must be restrained from exploiting, knowingly or inadvertently, those Clubs and their hundreds of members which can less-well than the Big Battalions afford to pay ever- increasing permit and licensing fees. That the situation, in a world of galloping inflation and rising petrol costs, has become desperate, is evident when you realise that the Motor Cycling Club, the oldest sporting Motor Club in this country, which continues to organise its classic long-distance trials dating back to 1908, had to pay more in Ministry-of-Transport Authorisation-Fees to run last year’s Land’s End Trial than the RAC did to hold the sponsored International RAC Rally — something to do with the MCC having more entrants who cover a bigger mileage. It is understandable that the Forestry Commission has to charge for the alleged wear-and-tear that the MATTERS OF MOMENT passage of fast-moving rally cars cause to its forest tracks and for spectator protection (ropes and whistles), ■ EXPLOITATION IS A DIRTY WORD! but it is not clear to us why a Government Department should charge the MCC for competitions which use “Man’s rich with little, were his judgement true; public roads, with every competitor paying his or her Nature is frugal, and her wants are few; These few normal road-licence duty.

  • DEC 2020 / Jan 2021
    Founded 1967 There have definitely been a few silent nights for the club this year but, hopefully, we will be back to Hark the Herald by spring. Newsletter of the Traditional Car Club of Doncaster December 2020/January 2021 Email special due to Covid 19 virus 1 Editorial Hello again, I hope that I find you all safe and well, even if a bit restricted. The review of this last year won’t take long, I’ve not done much or been anywhere much but am still here so it’s not all bad. If the vaccine roll out works better than some other things, the prediction is some return to ‘normal’ by East- er. Must admit that I see a conflict between normal and our club but I know what they mean. Spring is the time that we really start to get going with Breakfast meetings, Drive it day and show plan- ning can really pick up so we may be back in full flow at our usual time, we will see. A reminder that the committee is proposing to carry over subs to 2021 as we were effectively shut for most of this year. We have found a way to carry on with Tradsheet and our members only Facebook page has kept us informed and entertained. The website has been running throughout and has visitors from all over the world looking to see what we are up to. In that respect, we have carried on as best we can and have fared better than some clubs that have all but disappeared for the time being.
