A Microhistory of a Rural Community The Social History of Medical Self-Help in 20th-Century England: A Microhistory of a Rural Community. Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD (Schedule A). Fiona Mantle Date: July, 2019. i Abstract This thesis focuses on the health experiences of an Oxfordshire village 1900-1947 and the aim of the study is to obtain a holistic view of the health status and health strategies of one agricultural community. The period under review covers the years of therapeutic nihilism, the start of the therapeutic revolution, the third and fourth stages of germ theory and the start of the epidemiological transition. From a range of archival sources, the thesis examines the effects of climate, environment, housing, diet and the extant medical provision on the health and wellbeing of the residents. These effects in turn informed the residents’ health beliefs and self-help strategies set against the existing medical and nursing provision during periods of depression and war until the establishment of the National Health Service in 1948. Medical and health information from a range of sources, which were available to residents was explored. It shows that the residents were not passive in the face of illness and misfortune but worked together as a community. The importance of this study is its contribution to the historiography of rural health during the interwar years and offers a portrait of rural resilience and stoicism in the face of medical adversity. ii Acknowledgements I would firstly like to thank my supervisor Owen Davies for his patience in trying to turn a social scientist into a historian and for all his encouragement and interest in the subject and Dr. Ciara Meehan and Dr. Jennifer Evans for their valuable contributions. I would like to thank the administrative and library staff of Hertfordshire University who have always been helpful with my many queries. The staff of the Oxford History Centre have unfailingly managed to locate documents and books which have been essential to the thesis. I have had a lot of helpful and friendly support from the residents of Chinnor, in particular my interviewees and our two parish clerks Elizabeth Folley and Jo Wills. I would also like to thank Matt and Nigel for their IT support and to thank my sister Andrea for all her support and who acted as my independent reader, for her very pertinent comments and for patiently reading and re reading the evolving thesis and for the ‘Failure is not an option’ mug. The thesis is dedicated to my parents, Christopher and Lilian Mantle. iii Contents: List of figures List of appendices Chapters Page Introduction 1 Overview of the period Wider historical context Historiography of rural health Locus of care Health and illness Methodology Chapter 1: Chinnor in Context 29 Map of Chinnor 1930s and location Chinnor set in time and geography Makeshift economy Village amenities: village hall, Reading room, schools Social events Sanitation Chapter 2: Availability of Health Provision 52 Early practitioners Rise of general practice Dental care Costs and wages Nursing Midwifery Handywomen The growth of hospital care General and specialist hospitals iv Chapter 3: The Health Landscape of Chinnor, 1900-1948 100 Assessment of parochial data The state of Rural Health Environment and health Chinnor cement works Accidents Childbirth Infectious diseases Tuberculosis Cancer The effects of war National Farm Survey Evacuation Chapter 4: Potential Sources of Health 161 and Medical Information.

This can be demonstrated quantitively by the reported uptake of services during the first year of the Act.2 Prior to the Act, health was dependent on three factors which form the themes of this study: cost, availability and efficacy. This study explores the influence of the three themes on the health status of one village, the residents use of domestic remedies, and self-help health strategies during the period 1900-1948. This lies within the time frameworks of: therapeutic nihilism, therapeutic revolution, the third and fourth stages of germ theory and the start of stage three of the epidemiolocal transition. This will make an original addition to the existing historiography of rural health. The wider historical context The social, medical and historical context of this study lies within the period 1900-1948. Writing in a time and place which anthropologists refer to as ‘ecological release’, it is of historical interest to explore how people coped when disease was rife; grinding poverty with concomitant poor housing and scarce food the norm, with little or no effective treatment, specifically for the infections, which were a major cause of death. Previous historians have examined health and rural work in general: What this thesis offers is an account of the lived experience of health, not only the physical experience, but has taken into account the environmental and psychological effects on residents well-being. By examining one specific village within a specified time frame and using different methodologies, the study has refocused knowledge about rural health at its grass roots. It examines the everyday lives of rural residents, taking a ‘history from below’ approach, to enhance exploration of the topic. With the help of primary and secondary 1 William Shakespeare, Richard II, Act II scene 1. 2 Paul Addison, Now the War is Over: Social history of Britain, 1945-1951 (London, 1985), p. 106. 2 documentation, archival research and the reminiscences of people whose lives have spanned the decades from trial and tribulation to ecological release, this study examines how the people of Chinnor helped themselves, their families and their neighbours during ill-health and sickness before the advent of the National Health Service. It also shows how these factors helped to shape their health beliefs, their concept of good and poor health, their coping mechanisms and resources, and their sources of health information and help. The rapidity of growth over the last century in areas of demography, technology, economics and medicine has resulted in profound changes in society, more marked than at any other time in history. To illustrate this, a person born in 1900 would have been born before the Wright brothers achieved the first controlled, powered and sustained heavier than air human flight (1903), and before the development of antibiotics or blood transfusions. By 1948 these developments were routine and, if the same person lived to the age of 70, they would have lived to hear of the first human heart transplant (1967) and see a man walk on the moon (1969). The time span has been chosen to fall within the memory span of the older village residents, and was a period of medical change including the three stages of germ theory. It was also a period which reflected significant changes in the main influences of the study: medical costs, availability and efficacy. The years 1900-1948 fall initially into the period referred to as Therapeutic Nihilism which means that until the 1930s doctors had very few medicines with which to cure diseases, specifically infections. In 1900 the infant mortality rate was 130 per thousand live births, about 50% of 5-9 year olds in 1911-1915 died of infectious diseases in a period of high birth rate, high mortality and general ill health, when even minor injuries could prove fatal.3 A selection of childhood mortality figures between 1911-1915 show annual deaths from tuberculosis as 46,459, diphtheria 23,380, and measles, 48,986.4 3 A. Omran, ‘The Epidemiological Transition: a theory of the epidemiology of population change’, The Millbank Quarterly, 49, 4, 1 (1971), 731-757. 4 J. Muir Gray, Man Against Disease: preventative medicine (Oxford, 1979), p. 57. 3 Unsurprisingly, the historiography of medicine during this period was concerned primarily with the history of disease and its cure. According to John Burnham, this history of medicine is the history of scientific discovery, and was mainly written by medical practitioners. He suggested that this had the effect of excluding non-medical historians and portraying medicine as being progressive, scientific and authoritative, framing its history in terms of medical specialties.

  • Post-Medieval and Modern Resource Assessment
    THE SOLENT THAMES RESEARCH FRAMEWORK RESOURCE ASSESSMENT POST-MEDIEVAL AND MODERN PERIOD (AD 1540 - ) Jill Hind April 2010 (County contributions by Vicky Basford, Owen Cambridge, Brian Giggins, David Green, David Hopkins, John Rhodes, and Chris Welch; palaeoenvironmental contribution by Mike Allen) Introduction The period from 1540 to the present encompasses a vast amount of change to society, stretching as it does from the end of the feudal medieval system to a multi-cultural, globally oriented state, which increasingly depends on the use of Information Technology. This transition has been punctuated by the protestant reformation of the 16th century, conflicts over religion and power structure, including regicide in the 17th century, the Industrial and Agricultural revolutions of the 18th and early 19th century and a series of major wars. Although land battles have not taken place on British soil since the 18th century, setting aside terrorism, civilians have become increasingly involved in these wars. The period has also seen the development of capitalism, with Britain leading the Industrial Revolution and becoming a major trading nation. Trade was followed by colonisation and by the second half of the 19th century the British Empire included vast areas across the world, despite the independence of the United States in 1783. The second half of the 20th century saw the end of imperialism. London became a centre of global importance as a result of trade and empire, but has maintained its status as a financial centre. The Solent Thames region generally is prosperous, benefiting from relative proximity to London and good communications routes. The Isle of Wight has its own particular issues, but has never been completely isolated from major events.

Photo 1(left): 1 June 2009. Port Meadow showing the flood-water retreating and mud flats exposed. Photo: Camilla Lambrick Photo 2 (right): 1 June 2009. Southern part of Port Meadow, a former Creeping Marshwort area, now drying mud. Graham Scholey of the Environment Agency and Rebecca Tibbetts of Natural England assess the situation. Photo: Camilla Lambrick Alas Fen Violet is still in trouble at Otmoor – perhaps not dry and warm early enough for this very early species. The Fen Violet exercised us most during 2009 by way of a meeting with specialists from Plantlife and Northern Ireland, in a nation-wide discussion of radical actions notably for introduction on RSPB land. True Fox-sedge looks to be well set-up for the future now that extensive introductions by BBOWT have proved successful. Other plants seem to get on well by themselves – Birthwort (see front cover picture and report on page 4) seems to be proliferating in the ditches of a medieval nunnery just north of Oxford city. Progress continues towards the Oxfordshire Rare Plants Register; photographs are being amassed, and thanks to Ellen Lee’s masterly command of the records we now have some 4000 new records beginning to take form as eye-catching maps.

  • The Post-Medieval Rural Landscape, C AD 1500–2000 by Anne Dodd and Trevor Rowley
    THE THAMES THROUGH TIME The Archaeology of the Gravel Terraces of the Upper and Middle Thames: The Thames Valley in the Medieval and Post-Medieval Periods AD 1000–2000 The Post-Medieval Rural Landscape AD 1500–2000 THE THAMES THROUGH TIME The Archaeology of the Gravel Terraces of the Upper and Middle Thames: The Thames Valley in the Medieval and Post-Medieval Periods AD 1000-2000 The post-medieval rural landscape, c AD 1500–2000 By Anne Dodd and Trevor Rowley INTRODUCTION Compared with previous periods, the study of the post-medieval rural landscape of the Thames Valley has received relatively little attention from archaeologists. Despite the increasing level of fieldwork and excavation across the region, there has been comparatively little synthesis, and the discourse remains tied to historical sources dominated by the Victoria County History series, the Agrarian History of England and Wales volumes, and more recently by the Historic County Atlases (see below). Nonetheless, the Thames Valley has a rich and distinctive regional character that developed tremendously from 1500 onwards. This chapter delves into these past 500 years to review the evidence for settlement and farming. It focusses on how the dominant medieval pattern of villages and open-field agriculture continued initially from the medieval period, through the dramatic changes brought about by Parliamentary enclosure and the Agricultural Revolution, and into the 20th century which witnessed new pressures from expanding urban centres, infrastructure and technology. THE PERIOD 1500–1650 by Anne Dodd Farmers As we have seen above, the late medieval period was one of adjustment to a new reality.

  • Early Medieval Oxfordshire
    Anglo-Saxon Oxfordshire Sally Crawford and Anne Dodd, December 2007 1. Introduction: nature of the evidence, history of research and the role of material culture Anglo-Saxon Oxfordshire has been extremely well served by archaeological research, not least because of coincidence of Oxfordshire’s diverse underlying geology and the presence of the University of Oxford. Successive generations of geologists at Oxford studied and analysed the landscape of Oxfordshire, and in so doing, laid the foundations for the new discipline of archaeology. As early as 1677, geologist Robert Plot had published his The Natural History of Oxfordshire ; William Smith (1769- 1839), who was born in Churchill, Oxfordshire, determined the law of superposition of strata, and in so doing formulated the principles of stratigraphy used by archaeologists and geologists alike; and William Buckland (1784-1856) conducted experimental archaeology on mammoth bones, and recognised the first human prehistoric skeleton. Antiquarian interest in Oxfordshire lead to a number of significant discoveries: John Akerman and Stephen Stone's researches in the gravels at Standlake recorded Anglo-Saxon graves, and Stone also recognised and plotted cropmarks in his local area from the back of his horse (Akerman and Stone 1858; Stone 1859; Brown 1973). Although Oxford did not have an undergraduate degree in Archaeology until the 1990s, the Oxford University Archaeological Society, originally the Oxford University Brass Rubbing Society, was founded in the 1890s, and was responsible for a large number of small but significant excavations in and around Oxfordshire as well as providing a training ground for many British archaeologists. Pioneering work in aerial photography was carried out on the Oxfordshire gravels by Major Allen in the 1930s, and Edwin Thurlow Leeds, based at the Ashmolean Museum, carried out excavations at Sutton Courtenay, identifying Anglo-Saxon settlement in the 1920s, and at Abingdon, identifying a major early Anglo-Saxon cemetery (Leeds 1923, 1927, 1947; Leeds 1936).

  • Swimming and Diving DIVISION I MEN’S
    Swimming and Diving DIVISION I MEN’S Highlights Michigan wins fi rst championship since 1995, 12th overall: — When Michigan’s Bruno Ortiz pulled himself out of the water after swimming the anchor leg in the 400- yard freestyle relay at the 2013 Division I Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships, the singing started. “Hail to the Victors” echoed around the Indiana University Natatorium at IUPUI March 30, beginning with two Michigan spectator sections on one side of the building and carrying over to the Michigan bench area on the pool deck. The Wolverines did not win the 400 free relay; they fi nished second. But it didn’t matter. Michigan had wrapped up its fi rst national team title since 1995 long before that fi nal relay event. It was the 12th national title for Michigan, and meant it was no longer tied with Ohio State for the overall lead in Division I men’s titles. “This morning, we just kind of let our passion drive us. And that was it,” said Connor Jaeger, who began Michigan’s title drive on the fi nal night of the three-day meet with a victory in the 1,650-yard freestyle. He also won the 500 free in the meet’s fi rst individual race. Michigan’s victory halted a two-year title run by California, which fi nished second. “We started four years ago working on this,” said Michigan’s fi fth-year coach Mike Bottom. “You do it one day at a time; you do it one student-athlete at a time.
