Deadline for all copy to be included in the October issue of the Journal is September 7th Page 2 Nuneaton & North Warwickshire Family History Society - Journal NnwFHs Diary A Report From The Chairman, Peter Lee As we enter the summer season family history takes a bit of a back seat. Holidays, gardening, rambling, fishing, etc. and other outdoor pursuits fill up our leisure time. Despite this some of you enjoy visiting some of those places associated with your ancestors. Visiting your roots is a summer favourite, as well as more serious studies, records offices, libraries, museums and battlefields. Light nights and better weather help this. Our family history society never shuts so if you need any help this summer season we are here for you. The Nuneaton local and family history weekend is at the Chilvers Coton Heritage Centre on Saturday, September 11th. If you can make it we are pleased to see you there especially if you are displaying your family records. This is something we welcome very much and we will be pleased to meet you. Not only that you might come face to face with some long lost cousin, or obtain additional local information, which provide new clues where to look next. Tables and display areas are available, but you need to book early to reserve them. To reserve your place at the event please call me on my mobile (07710 233539) which is switched on 24 hours a day and accompanies me everywhere, (even to the pub!). Try and combine it with a weekend in the area. If you are coming a long distance we can help with hotel, guest house and travel information. Also we might be able to put you in touch with a cousin or two who live locally. Our popular second Tuesday of the month sessions at Nuneaton Library (7.30pm-9.30pm) continue despite the hot weather, so please try and make one of those. Bring your family with you as well. Let us show them what records are here and take advantage of the local collections with all the census records 1841-1891, as well as parish records. Thinking of new ways we can maximize the benefits of family history, I was talking to an Indian friend of mine one day who told me all about his family back in the sub-continent. It occurred to me that an “Asian Family History Event” might be a useful addition to our range of services at the Library. So please let me know if you have any expertise in this area. In our multi-cultural society “family” is the same in any language, so there must be a local need here. This is planned for later in the year. Something I have learned about organizing these local events is the total coverage you need to give them. Every available publicity outlet as well as constant reminders to people so that what appeared to be a good idea three months ago is still fresh in people’s thoughts right up until the day of delivery. Forgive me, therefore, if you get the odd e.mail reminding you of what is on. You can always delete it after you have read it. CRIME WATCH 1820 STYLE By Val Pickard The Sheepy Magna Association for the Proscecution of Felons instructed Henry Radford, Solicitor of Atherstone to seek out one William Corbett, Cattle Dealer of Austrey in Warwickshire. This he did by placing an advertisement in The Times newspa- per in early 1820. 15 Guineas reward was offered. NNWFHS William Corbett was charged with having “feloniously stolen, taken and driven away on or about the 16th of December 1819, HELPLINE one beast of the cow kind, the property of Ralph Oldacres of Austrey” it was also said that “he hath fled from justice”.

  • Core Strategy Adopted December 2009
    Local Development Framework Core Strategy ADOPTED DECEMBER 2009 Maps included in this document © Crown copyright. All rights reserved Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council LA100018489 Published 2008 Aerial Photographs Copyright GeoPerspectives. Supplied by Bluesky International Ltd. Foreword As the Executive Member with responsibilities for Regeneration and Planning for Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council I am proud to announce the adoption of the council’s Core Strategy Development Plan Document. The adoption of this Document is the result of more than 5 years of work, which began with a series of workshops around the borough to help the council to understand what local communities value about their local environment and what issues communities face over the next 20 years. The Document is the frst of its kind to be produced by a single council in the whole of the East Midlands. It provides this council with an up to date planning policy framework upon which to assess the merits of future planning application submissions. Further, it provides more certainty in helping the council to meet its future development requirements up to 2026. The Core Strategy is the key strategic document in the suite of documents to be produced as part of the Local Development Framework for the borough. It provides a steer on the level and direction of future housing and employment growth, it also sets out policies aimed to improve the environment and the range of facilities in the urban areas as well as the rural settlements of the borough. Importantly the Document seeks to ensure the necessary physical, social and green infrastructure is put in place to allow the strategy to be successfully delivered.

  • THE EMERGENCE and FUNCTIONING of DISTRICT RELIEF COMMITTEES DURING the FIRST WORLD WAR: a CASE STUDY of HINCKLEY, LEICESTERSHIRE John Martin and Robert King
    THE EMERGENCE AND FUNCTIONING OF DISTRICT RELIEF COMMITTEES DURING THE FIRST WORLD WAR: A CASE STUDY OF HINCKLEY, LEICESTERSHIRE John Martin and Robert King Very little is known about the operation of the District Relief Committee (DRC) and the role it played during the First World War. This article undertakes a pioneering investigation into its significance by means of a case study of the DRC as it operated in the town of Hinckley, Leicestershire, and which demonstrated the unsung role that the organisation played in mobilising and coordinating the war effort at a local level. An important discovery was that over time the committee evolved from a charitable organisation, run by local dignitaries and personalities, from the onset of the war to, by 1916, a professionally operated de facto local government department. The effect of this largely unknown network, which has merited scant attention from historians, was to enable the government both rapidly to acquire and disseminate local information vital to the war effort, with the provision of aniline dyes being one such example. INTRODUCTION The District Relief Committee (DRC) system was established to implement charitable relief and commercial requirements at both national and local levels, but has largely been ignored by current historians. For example, Wilson, when referring to the reception of Belgian refugees into Britain, writes that ‘…other organizations arranged financial assistance for the dependents of servicemen’, but does not say what form that assistance took.1 Marwick notes that the early months of the war saw a ‘flowering of grand-scale private charity’,2 but, like Wilson, makes no mention of its implementation, or to whom the charitable activity was directed.
