U DDPR Papers of the Preston Family of Moreby 1331 - 1992 Hull History Centre: Papers of the Preston Family of Moreby U DDPR Papers of the Preston Family of Moreby 1331 - 1992 Biographical Background: The Preston family originated in Westmorland but were living in Holker by the seventeenth century. The second son of George Preston of Holker, Christopher Preston (b.1639) became a Leeds merchant. The family remained as merchants in Leeds through the rest of the seventeenth century and Christopher Preston's grandson, John Preston (d.1710) was an alderman and mayor of Leeds in 1692. Papers relating to the pew he purchased in Leeds church are in the collection. One of his daughters married Marmaduke Lawson (b.1685) of Moreby whose estates passed to the Preston family after he died without issue. The Preston family made good marriages in the early eighteenth century. William Preston (d.1772) married Ellen or Helen Farrer in 1721 and she brought a marriage portion of £600 and ultimately family estates as represented in the estate papers in the collection. His son, also William Preston (1723-1791), married Elizabeth Kilvington in 1756 and her marriage portion was £4000. When he inherited Moreby from Marmaduke Lawson he left Leeds to reside there. His brother, Henry Preston (1737-1808), stayed in Leeds and married Ann Fourness. Two of their sons died as young men in 1804 and their youngest son, also Henry Preston (1779-1837), married Maria Ann Crompton, ultimately succeeded to Moreby after the death of his uncle and became High Sheriff in 1834. His other uncle, Thomas Preston (1742- 1827) became vicar of Scalby and died childless, his estate passing then to Henry Preston's son, Thomas Henry Preston. Thomas Henry Preston's sister, Anna Maria Preston, married Baron Friederich Franz von Langan and lived in Germany. Moreby and Kelfield are included in Stillingfleet which is about seven miles south of York. After inheriting Moreby from his brother William, Henry Preston set about expanding the estates, buying 500 acres in Stillingfleet in 1827 and the manor of Kelfield in 1828. In the same years he began building a new house, designed by Anthony Salvin in neo-Tudor style, with multiple gabling and interior oak panelling. Like his brother Thomas in Scalby, he benefitted from enclosures and they were able to consolidate other estates too in places like Great Kelk where 94 acres were bought in 1829. These estates descended in the Preston family until the 1940s and 1950s when they were sold in several lots by Beatrice Preston. She retained the hall and its 90 acre park (Foster, Pedigrees, iii; Pevsner & Neave, York and the East Riding, p.713; Allison, History of Yorkshire, ii, pp.183, 185, iii, 14, 102-6). Custodial history: Deposited in the East Riding Record Office and transferred to Hull University Archives in 1974. Description: The papers of the Preston family comprise estate papers, especially for Kelfield and Moreby in the East Riding, though there are estate papers also in some number for Stillingfleet. In addition there are a few papers for estates in the North and West Ridings and there are seventeenth and nineteenth century manorial records for Kelfield. Family correspondence is reasonably extensive, especially the letters of the Reverend Thomas Preston of Scalby and Henry Preston and his family of Moreby Hall. The collection also contains a fair amount of material related to the will of Marmaduke Lawson, from whom the family inherited Moreby in the eighteenth century. His account books and those of Henry Preston are also useful for information on estates and the account books and other papers of Thomas Preston are page 1 of 182 Hull History Centre: Papers of the Preston Family of Moreby useful for information on tithe rents. The collection also contains some magistrates' forms, several of them filled out for bastardy cases and the rest blank for all occasions from disorderly servants to masters misbehaving.
