He was the seventh child of Matthew and Esther Etty. Matthew owned a bakery and confectionery shop in Feasegate. The Ettys lived above the premises. Esther’s family had disapproved of her marriage to Matthew and disowned her, prompting the couple’s move from Pocklington to York, where they established their business and raised their family. They were staunch Methodists. William had three older surviving brothers, Walter, born in 1774, John, born in 1775, Thomas, born in 1780, and one younger brother Charles, born in 1793. The family seems to have been loving and caring and both parents encouraged their sons to aspire to successful careers. As an infant, William contracted smallpox and bore the scars of this throughout his life. His early schooling included attending a ‘dame-school’ in Feasegate and a school behind Goodramgate. Later, he became a weekly boarder at an academy in Pocklington. Although basic, Matthew and Esther considered the schooling of their sons important, despite the drain on family finances and during a time when the children of less affluent families were rarely educated.

  • Excavations in the South Transept of St Mary's Abbey, York
    Forum: The Journal of Council for British Archaeology Yorkshire Volume 4 | 2015 (71–76) Excavations in the South Transept of St Mary’s Abbey, York Adam Parker Corresponding author Assistant Curator of Archaeology, York Museums Trust [email protected] Keywords Medieval, Abbey, Apse, Excavation, York Landscaping developments on the site of St Mary’s Abbey, situated within the Museum Gardens, encountered in situ archaeological remains in the south transept. A substantial area of a wall foundation was uncovered and a chapel apse discovered. The published record of the architectural features within this area is piecemeal and does not account for the unusual position of this feature within the transept. See References for a glossary of abbreviations. Background A major landscaping and gardening project by York Museums Trust, begun in December 2014, intended to reclaim unused land behind the York Art Gallery and develop the north-west corner of the precinct of St Mary’s Abbey (centred at NGR SE 59941 52176) as part of a wider scheme of landscaping developments within the environs of the Museum Gardens, York. The scheme of works intended to open up additional visitor space within the Museum Gardens, due for opening in August 2015. The installation of a fibre optic cable from the Yorkshire Museum to the York Art Gallery, via the Gardens, necessitated this scheme of works. A condition of the SMC (Scheduled Monument Consent, English Heritage ref: S000097484) required the preliminary excavation of three trenches within the Abbey church central range in March 2015 (Parker 2015a). These excavations, undertaken to a maximum depth of 0.5m, recorded small quantities of in situ architectural remains.
