  • The Fusilier Origins in Tower Hamlets the Tower Was the Seat of Royal
    The Fusilier Origins in Tower Hamlets The Tower was the seat of Royal power, in addition to being the Sovereign’s oldest palace, it was the holding prison for competitors and threats, and the custodian of the Sovereign’s monopoly of armed force until the consolidation of the Royal Arsenal at Woolwich in 1805. As such, the Tower Hamlets’ traditional provision of its citizens as a loyal garrison to the Tower was strategically significant, as its possession and protection influenced national history. Possession of the Tower conserved a foothold in the capital, even for a sovereign who had lost control of the City or Westminster. As such, the loyalty of the Constable and his garrison throughout the medieval, Tudor and Stuart eras was critical to a sovereign’s (and from 1642 to 1660, Parliament’s) power-base. The ancient Ossulstone Hundred of the County of Middlesex was that bordering the City to the north and east. With the expansion of the City in the later Medieval period, Ossulstone was divided into four divisions; the Tower Division, also known as Tower Hamlets. The Tower Hamlets were the military jurisdiction of the Constable of the Tower, separate from the lieutenancy powers of the remainder of Middlesex. Accordingly, the Tower Hamlets were sometimes referred to as a county-within-a-county. The Constable, with the ex- officio appointment of Lord Lieutenant of Tower Hamlets, held the right to call upon citizens of the Tower Hamlets to fulfil garrison guard duty at the Tower. Early references of the unique responsibility of the Tower Hamlets during the reign of Bloody Mary show that in 1554 the Privy Council ordered Sir Richard Southwell and Sir Arthur Darcye to muster the men of the Tower Hamlets "whiche owe their service to the Towre, and to give commaundement that they may be in aredynes for the defence of the same”1.

  • William Murduck, 1834 – 1895
    William Murduck, 1834 – 1895 William Murduck was born in his parents’ home in Bethnal Green (London), England, probably very early in 1834. His parents – Thomas and Mary Ann [nee Coleman], crossed parish boundaries from Bethnal Green to Stepney when they had their son baptised at St. Dunstan’s, the church of the Parish of Stepney, on 9 February 1834.1 Thomas the father was a bricklayer/builder (born 1795) who had moved in to east London probably in the fall of 1825, a little more than eight years before William’s birth. Thomas had been married to Mary Coleman in 1821, in the Parish of Writtle (near Chelmsford in Essex County, north and east of London about 40 miles). Two surviving children who had been born in Writtle – John (born 1822) and Eliza (born 1826) made the move with him. In Bethnal Green, Thomas (1829), Mary Ann Lucy (1831), then William, Elizabeth Sarah (1836), George (1839), Charles (1842), and Edward (1843) were born. William came from a long line of bricklayer/builders who had lived in and worked out of Writtle ever since the late 1600s. His great, great grandfather John Murduck (baptised 14 January 1699) was a bricklayer. William’s great grandfather John Murduck (baptised 5 May 1734) was a bricklayer. So was his grandfather Thomas Murduck (baptised 18 September 1765). William’s uncle – his father’s younger brother, Robert John (known as John, baptised in the parish of Hornchurch, Essex, on 29 April 1804), was also a bricklayer. It`s probable that William’s father and uncle operated a ‘family style business’ constructing and repairing residential buildings in east London and west Essex for many years.

  • Protestation Returns Document
    WEST MIDDLESEX FAMILY HISTORY SOCIETY THE 1641 - 42 PROTESTATION OF MIDDLESEX Oliver Cromwell outside the Houses of Parliament. The oath In 1641 Parliament decreed that ALL males over the age of 18 should swear an “Oath of Allegiance” to the Protestant Church of England, Parliament and the King Charles.

  • Land Tax Assessments for London and Middlesex
    RESEARCH GUIDE Land Tax Assessments for London and Middlesex LMA Research Guide 9: Land Tax Assessments for London and Middlesex CONTENTS Introduction Background Records at LMA City of London Middlesex Kent Surrey Introduction London Metropolitan Archives holds land tax assessments for the City of London, the county of Middlesex (including most Westminster parishes), and certain parishes in Kent and Surrey now in inner London. Almost all of these assessments have been digitised and made available on the Ancestry website. Please see the database titled London, England, Land Tax Records, 1692-1932. Background The first assessments of 1692-3 were made under the terms of 'An Act for granting to their Majesties an aid of four shillings in the pound for one year for carrying on a vigorous war against France'[4 William & Mary c.1, 1692/3]. The Act specified that real estate and personal property, that is buildings and moveable goods as well as land, were to be taxed. It nominated for each borough and county in England and Wales the local commissioners who were to supervise the assessments and local collection. The tax was voted annually, usually in the spring, until 1798 when it was transformed into a permanent tax but was redeemable on payment of a lump sum. It was levied on a number of different bases: as a pound rate between 1693 and 1696, as a 4 shillings assessment supplemented by a poll tax in 1697 and from 1698-1798 on the system whereby each county or borough was given a fixed sum to collect. In 1949 redemption became compulsory on property changing hands and in 1963 all unredeemed land tax was abolished.

  • City of London Spatial Classification
    LONDON ELECTORAL HISTORY – STEPS TOWARDS DEMOCRACY 7.8 LONDON AND SPATIAL CLASSIFICATION Note: Following the LEH website conventions, ‘London’ refers to the parliamentary constituency. ‘City of London’ is the spatial entity O! [London’s] Lamps of a night! Her rich goldsmiths, print shops, toy shops, mercers, hardwaremen, pastry cooks! – St. Paul’s churchyard, the Strand! Exeter Change! – Charing Cross, with the man upon a black horse! – These are thy Gods O London – … All the streets and pavements are pure gold, I warrant you. – At least I know an Alchemy that turns her mud into that metal – a mind that loves to be at home in Crowds... .1 ‘London’ has long meant different things to different people. As Charles Lamb’s enthusiastic commentary indicated, it catered well for those who could cope with its crowds and diversity. Administrative London, the centre of national government, overlapped with the legal and legislative centres of the nation, while the West End became the seasonal playground of the well-to-do and the home of smart shops, with poor areas providing cheap labour tucked among the grandeur. Eastwards, commercial and financial London focused on the port and the City of London itself. It had a different appearance: of wharves and warehouses riverwards, and dwelling-places and nearby counting-houses. To take one literary example, Elizabeth Bennet’s uncle Gardiner was a City wholesaler, living, as Jane Austen specified, ‘by trade and within view of his own warehouses.’2 But over time, the City’s business premises were increasingly supplanting residential properties within the inner city, as the march of London into Middlesex provided accommodation for the teeming masses of the metropolis.

  • The Lunacy Commissioners and the East London Guardians, 1845-1867
    Medical History, 2002, 46: 495-524 The Lunacy Commissioners and the East London Guardians, 1845-1867 ELAINE MURPHY* Introduction: The Crystallization of Central Regulation The social history of insanity has proved a seductive paradigm for students of the management of the dependent poor in nineteenth-century England. Largely through Andrew Scull's work, the insane have been perceived as "casualties" of class and gender power relations during the transformation from paternalistic laissez-faire rural economy into an industrialized capitalist state.' While the Elizabethan Poor Law was the administrative foundation on which the system of care was constructed, until recently two other themes dominated the historiography of mental disorder, first that of the rise of psychiatry and psychiatrists and second the expansion of the Victorian asylum as society's preferred response.2 The place of the insane in social welfare provision was located by Kathleen Jones and Scull in their early works within the reforming zeal of the county magistrates, the mid-Victorian Lunatics Acts and the central inspectorate responsible for policing the Acts, the Commissioners in Lunacy.3 The literature underplayed the legal and administrative context of the Poor Law within which lunacy was managed and paid only glancing attention to the influence of the changing role of the state and the growth of nineteenth-century government administration. Over the past fifteen years, largely through the work of Peter Bartlett, David Wright, Leonard Smith, and Bill Forsythe and Joseph Melling,4 the asylum and "mad-doctors" have been repositioned on the periphery of a target that places the * Professor Elaine Murphy, Honorary Senior Andrew Scull, Museums ofmadness: the social Research Fellow at the Wellcome Trust Centre organization of insanity in nineteenth-century for the History of Medicine at University College England, London, Allen Lane, 1979.

  • Middlesex Spatial Classification
    LONDON ELECTORAL HISTORY – STEPS TOWARDS DEMOCRACY 7.7 MIDDLESEX AND SPATIAL CLASSIFICATION All Middlesex is ugly, notwithstanding the millions upon millions which it is continually sucking up from the rest of the kingdom. … [T]he buildings consist generally of tax-eater’s showy tea- garden-like boxes, and of shabby dwellings of labouring people, who, in this part of the country, look to be about half Saint Giles’s: dirty, and have every appearance of drinking gin.1 It is hard to imagine Middlesex as an agrarian county. Yet Middlesex (see Fig. 1) was for long an agricultural county by predominant land-use, if not by population. Its production was driven by the insatiable demand for fresh produce from the nearby metropolis, even while buildings of the growing conurbation were continually extending into the area.2 Indeed, the urban and rural economies were intermingled. The 1841 census, for example, noted the presence of 359 hay-makers, sleeping in sheds in Harrow parish.3 But urban residents, both rich and poor, were ever encroaching. Would-be smart new housing was juxtaposed with ‘shabby dwellings’. The labourers appeared as down-at-heel inner-urban gin-drinkers according to the beer-drinking William Cobbett, in the hostile commentary cited immediately above. His highly pertinent cultural reference was to Hogarth’s picture of urban degeneration in Gin Lane (1751), satirising the all-too-urban parish of St-Giles-in-the-Fields in the Holborn district of the ancient Hundred of Ossulston, Middlesex. And, with or without the social criticism, the urbanisation of the county was indeed inexorable.
