  • HEDON NEAR HULL—A NEW NORMAN MINT an Interesting
    HEDON NEAR HULL—A NEW NORMAN MINT By F. ELMORE JONES AN interesting addition to the list of English mint towns is made possible by the discovery of a satisfactory identification of the uncer- tain mint name of "hEDV-" found on a coin of Stephen, type 7, in the Hunterian Collection at Glasgow University. Dr. Brooke refers to this reading on p. 171 of the Introduction to Norman Kings as follows: fcEDV-' a coin of Stephen's last type which is in the Hunterian Collection reads *6ER7TR •••: OH : JiEDV [E ?]. The identification of the mint is quite uncertain but Hythe is possible (cf. Domesday HEDE)." I have myself always considered Hythe a very improbable attribu- tion on phonetic grounds (even allowing for the fact that Brooke was without knowledge of the last letter of the mint spelling) and have felt pretty sure that we have here the name of an entirely new mint town. I was therefore particularly interested to hear of a second specimen in Mr. Fred Baldwin's collection (from the same obverse die as the Hunterian coin but a different reverse die) and to find that this clearly supplies the two missing letters and gives the full reading as being: * GERARD : OM : fcEDVN. I have the support of one of our leading authorities on Norman place-names in identifying this reading with the now unimportant town of Hedon, some six miles east of Hull in the East Riding of Yorkshire. I am indebted to this authority for the following note on the Norman history of Hedon which I reproduce verbatim: "In the reign of Stephen Hedon (Yorkshire East Riding) appears to have been a small but quite important Borough in the Seigniory of Holderness, a port whose trade was based on the export of wool of the East Riding to Northern Europe and the Baltic in exchange for furs and other articles.

  • The 1901 Census in Bishop Burton
    Bishop Burton Census 1901 The 1901 Census in Bishop Burton An analysis by Bryn Jones based on three articles first published in the Bishop Burton News 2008 1 Introduction Every ten years since 1841 (except 1941 because of World War 2) the government has undertaken a census of the UK population. One hundred years later the detailed contents of the census are opened to public inspection and so are leapt on by family historians wanting to track their ancestors. All the UK census returns are now on computer and so it is possible to search for particular individuals using software you can subscribe to or access from the library. To help with the war memorial project, I have transcribed the 1901 census for Bishop Burton into a database on my computer. This then allows us to analyse the village population as a whole as well as see what individuals were up to. The census surveyed the population of the village on 31 st March 1901. Each registrar’s sub- district was divided into a number of enumeration districts, each of which was the responsibility of an enumerator. The enumerator delivered a form known as a schedule to each household a few days before census night, and collected the completed schedules the day after. The schedules were then sorted, and the details copied into the census enumerators’ books. It is these books which have survived and which can be seen today on microform or digitally online. There are 15 pages for the Bishop Burton enumeration district with roughly 30 entries per page.
