Other content coutesy of Carl Higgs. A page from Sedgley Manor Court Books, dated 2nd Sept. 1729, showing an inventory of the effects, goods and chattels taken on the death of widow Ann Turton (died 6th Feb. 1728). A page from Sedgley Manor Court Books, dated 2nd Sept. 1729, showing an inventory of the effects, goods and chattels taken on the death of widow Ann Turton (died 6th Feb. 1728). Inventories such as this often accompanied wills at this date, and are a window into the lives of our ancestors, as they list personal and everyday household items alongside other property. They can exist even where no last will or testament was made. The inventory itself is written in English, though at this date the rest of the wording was still in Latin. A document pertaining to a transfer of a half share in the profits arising from tolls collected for the Sedgley 'Old Line of Road' between Sarah Hall and Abel Fletcher, dated 3rd January 1856. Sarah Hall was the widow of Benjamin Hall, a wheelwright and barrow maker who died in 1851 aged just 39. They had been renting a cottage near the corner of Bilston Street and High Street from Abel Fletcher who had his steam flour mill there. Sarah evidently owned a half share in the interest from the tolls, while Mary Ann Sherwood named in the deed (a relative of Sarah's husband) owned the other half share.

  • WOLVERHAMPTON CHRONICLE 1860 to 1869 1 4 January 1860
    WOLVERHAMPTON CHRONICLE 1860 to 1869 1 4 January 1860 STAFFORDSHIRE QUARTER SESSIONS STEALING IRON AT SEDGLEY George Hughes, boatman, indicted for stealing 56 lbs of iron, the property of the London and North Western Railway Company, at Sedgley, was found guilty and sentenced to twelve months imprisonment. 2 18 January 1860 TIPTON DISTRESSING OCCURRENCE On Tuesday, an inquest was held at Swan Village on the body of Joseph Timmins, a boatman 20 years of age. On the preceding Saturday morning, deceased, in company with a man named William Smith, was on the canal with an empty boat, going to Tipton. When past Dudley Port, and near the canal bridge there, they came to a turn in the course of the canal and, meeting with another boat, a collision ensued between the two. Deceased, who stood up in the end of his own boat, fell into the water, and being able to swim, kept himself afloat until his companion, Smith, had nearly reached the side where he was, but at this moment he sank to the bottom of the canal, overcome, it is supposed, by the effects of the cold. Smith at once got out the body of deceased, and calling for help, a man named Griffiths, in the employ of the Canal Company, came up, and seeing that deceased was insensible, merely blew down his throat. This producing no apparent effect, he said, “I don't see that there's any life in him, and I'll take him to Tipton”. This course was pursued, and after taking the deceased to an office by the canal side, where he was laid still breathing, poor Timmins was conveyed to a public house in Tipton, a distance from this office of more than 300 yards.
