Nantwich and Wybunbury, 1680-1819: a Demographic Study of Two Cheshire Parishes
NANTWICH AND WYBUNBURY, 1680-1819: A DEMOGRAPHIC STUDY OF TWO CHESHIRE PARISHES Grace M. Wyatt This study uses the parish registers of Nantwich and Wybunbury with their bare record of baptisms, marriages, and burials, to bring to life the families who lived there in the eighteenth century by examining such topics as years of excess mortality, infant mortality, adult mortality, age at marriage, and size of family. Nantwich and Wybunbury are adjacent parishes in south Cheshire. Cheshire parishes are mostly large and consist of several townships. Nantwich, with five, was much smaller in area than Wybunbury, which had eighteen townships. How ever, Nantwich itself has been a market town for several hundred years. Its other townships, Woolstanwood, Leighton, Alvaston, and Willaston (partly in the parish), are mainly agricultural. Nantwich has been claimed as a gentry town in the late seventeenth century.' In 1674 Nantwich parish had thirty-two large houses with six or more hearths, accounting for about 7| per cent of all taxed hearths, but most of the houses had only one or two. In addition, there were 128 households discharged from paying the hearth tax because of poverty.2 These figures differ from Hodson's but he is perhaps right about domination by the gentry. Nantwich does not compare with York, where 15 per cent of taxed hearths were in houses with six or more. 3 Salt manufacturing at Nantwich was in decline in the late 2 G.M. Wvatt seventeenth century as the loss of nearby wood supplies and the change from wood to coal shifted the centre of the industry to Northwich and Middlewich, which were linked to the Lancashire coalfields by the improvement of the Weaver Navigation.4 The discovery of rock salt at Marbury near Northwich in 1670 and brine springs at Winsford accelerated Nantwich's decline.
