  • Sixteenth-Century People: Some Aspects of Social Life in Elizabethan
    SIXTEENTH CENTURY PEOPLE : SOME ASPECTS OF SOCIAL LIFE IN ELIZABETHAN BUCKS H. A. HANLEY Details of the personal lives of ordinary people are not easily come by for most periods of history and this is the truer the further one goes back in time, The 17th-century world of Sir Ralph Yerney and his circle emerges fresh and vivid from the pages of the Claydon House correspondence, but before 1600 personal documents of any kind are rare even for members of the upper classes. For this reason, if we are to form any impression of the lives and personalities of men and women of the Elizabethan period, we have to resort to more indirect sources of information. The records of court proceedings, in particular, where they survive, often preserve sharp fragments of individual experience embedded in their unpromising prose. The following brief portraits are—with one excep- tion—derived from the extant depositions of witnesses in cases heard in the ecclesiastical court for the Archdeaconry of Buckingham between 1578 and 1585,1 supplemented, where possible, by reference to other sources such as wills and parish registers. Apart from their intrinsic human interest, they illustrate, in concrete form, some aspects of the life of the society to which they relate. To a great extent they speak for themselves and comment has accordingly been kept to a minimum. The broader outlines of the social and economic structure have been described for us by Mrs. E. M. Elvey in her recent article2 in this journal on the early records of the Archdeaconry of Buckingham which, although it relates to the first half of the sixteenth century, is true in most essentials of the Elizabethan period also.

  • WW2 Evacuation
    Evacuation Evacuees at Wing Village hall awaiting billets, 1940 (ph Wing 102) The fear of air attack by German bombers led the British Government to plan the wholesale evacuation of women and children from the large cities months before war was declared. Nothing like this had ever been attempted before and it was a huge undertaking. Lying next to London with excellent rail and road communications yet with little industry Buckinghamshire was an ideal place to receive evacuees. To some extent evacuation was an ongoing process throughout the war but there are three distinct phases which can be identified. 1. September 1939 The threat of bombs on important cities led the government to start an evacuation programme whereby children and sometimes their mothers were sent out of the cities to stay in rural areas of the country where bombing was less likely to occur. It was a huge operation and it began before the outbreak of war. Alarmed by the declaration of war in September 1939 many people in London sent their children to any friends or relatives in the country, or rented houses outside the metropolis. These were known as unofficial evacuees. The government organised for approximately 31,000 children, mothers and teachers to be received in Buckinghamshire alone. Those being evacuated left London on trains and coaches. In the towns where they were heading church halls and schools were adapted as reception centres and billeting officers were appointed by the local councils to allocate evacuees to the homes of local people. Advert from the newspaper Wendover and Aylesbury News appealing for homes for evacuees (March 21st 1940) Page from a WVS 1945 calendar (D/X 814/8/2) Those allocated to Aylesbury and area were met at the railway station and taken to the town hall where they were split up and sent on coaches to reception centres at the surrounding villages.

  • Report of an Excursion to Soulbury, Stewkley, and Wing: Saturday, July
    REPORT OF AN EXCURSION TO SOULBURY, STEWKLEY, AND WING. SATURDAY, JULY 18TH, 1914. By A. MORLEY DAVIES, D.Se., F.G.S., Director ojthe Excursion. ARRIVING at Leighton Buzzard at IO.45 a.m., the party drove out to Soulbury. On the way the small escarpment of the Aptian (Lower Greensand) was noticed, with a spring at its foot, near the entrance to Liscombe Park. In Soul bury village a large erratic of Carboniferous Limestone was seen, but the first important halt was at Mr. Robinson's gravel-pit, nearly half-way between Soul­ bury and Stewkley. Here was a fine section of the glacial­ outwash gravels, composed of all the materials which characterise the Chalky Boulder-Clay of the district. The finer beds, though physically" sand," were composed to a very great extent of grains of chalk, and surface-water percolating through them had produced numerous brown" pipes" by decalcification. Among the coarser materials flint was most abundant, but chalk, Jurassic limestones (oolitic and other), gryphites and belemnites, Carboniferous lime­ stone, chert, dolerite and other igneous rocks, and pink and white quartz were also found. The Director explained that they were then, and would be throughout the day, on that part of the Oxford clay-vale which formed part of the Tharnes-Ouse watershed. This alone, how­ ever, would not suffice to account for the hilly character of the land, which was, in fact, a small plateau dissected by rejuvenated streams, with valleys almost gorge-like in places. The explana­ tion was that here we were on the southern margin of the great sheet of Chalky Boulder-Clay and its associated gravels, and the head waters of the Thame and Ouse were cutting down valleys through this drift to the underlying Jurassic clays.
