I DEDICATE this GLOSSARY OF Cheshijie Words to my friends in Mid-Cheshire, and believe, with some pleasure, that these Dialectical Fragments of our old County may now have a chance of not vanishing entirely, amid changes which are rapidly sweeping away the past, and in many cases obliterating words for which there is no substitute, or which are often, with us, better expressed by a single word than elsewhere by a sentence. EGERTON LEIGH. M24873 PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS ATTACHED TO WILBRAHAM'S "CHESHIRE GLOSSARY." Although a Glossary of the Words peculiar to each County of England seems as reasonable an object of curiosity as its History, Antiquities, Climate, and various Productions, yet it has been generally omitted by those persons who have un- dertaken to write the Histories of our different Counties. Now each of these counties has words, if not exclusively peculiar to that county, yet certainly so to that part of the kingdom where it is situated, and some of those words are highly beautiful and of their and expressive ; many phrases, adages, proverbs are well worth recording, and have occupied the attention and engaged the pens of men distinguished for talents and learning, among whom the name of Ray will naturally occur to every Englishman at all conversant with his mother- tongue, his work on Proverbs and on the different Dialects of England being one of the most popular ones in our PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS.

  • DISASTERS and MISFORTUNES: the STORY of JOHN and JANE DANIELL by Martin Taylor
    DISASTERS AND MISFORTUNES: THE STORY OF JOHN AND JANE DANIELL by Martin Taylor Introduction On 17th June 1601 John Daniell, the tenant of Hackney rectory, was found guilty by the Court of Star Chamber of what we would now call forgery and blackmail. He was sentenced to a period in the pillory, a term of imprisonment, and a massive fine which led to the confiscation of his property by the Exchequer. This resulted in a ten year trail of inventories, pleas and petitions which has been used to build a picture of Daniell's house in Hackney - the Parsonage House - and the lives lived in it. Perhaps uniquely for a 17th century resident of Hackney, this evidence also tells us a great deal about John Daniell himself, and his wife Jane - their attitudes, aspirations and failures - and on this part of the site we have tried to piece together the circumstances which led to the DanielIs' move to Hackney, and then to their rapid departure. The records of John's trial in Star Chamber and his later law suit against Ferdinando Heybourne (who subsequently bought the lease of the Rectory) give us a great deal of information. The papers relating to the Star Chamber action in the State Papers series are annotated by him, mostly with rather petulant comments refuting the prosecution case. Moreover, to justify his actions he wrote a narrative of his misfortunes, poignantly entitled 'Danyells Dysasters'.' This gives us a rare insight into the thought processes of an Elizabethan gentleman. Throughout this memoir, Daniell represents himself as an injured party who was 'entrapped by double dealing and powerful adversaries'.' Furthermore, we have a similar recital of the story written by Daniell's wife Jane, entitled 'The Misfortunes of Jane Danyell'.' Autobiographical material relating to an Elizabethan woman is even rarer than such material relating to an Elizabethan man.

  • CHRONICLES of THELWALL, CO. CHESTER, with NOTICES of the SUCCESSIVE LORDS of THAT MANOR, THEIR FAMILY DESCENT, &C
    379 CHRONICLES OF THELWALL, CO. CHESTER, WITH NOTICES OF THE SUCCESSIVE LORDS OF THAT MANOR, THEIR FAMILY DESCENT, &c. &c. THELWALL is a township situate within the parochial chapelry of Daresbury, and parish of Runcorn, in the East Division of the hundred of Bucklew, and deanery of Frodsham, co. Chester. It is unquestionably a place of very great antiquity, and so meagre an account has been hitherto published a as to its early history and possessors, that an attempt more fully to elucidate the subject, and to concentrate, and thereby preserve, the scat• tered fragments which yet remain as to it, from the general wreck of time, cannot fail, it is anticipated, to prove both accept• able and interesting. The earliest mention that is to be met with of Thelwall appears in the Saxon Chronicle, from which we find that, in the year 923, King Edward the Elder, son of King Alfred, made it a garrison for his soldiers, and surrounded it with fortifications. By most writers it is stated to have been founded by this monarch, but the opinion prevails with some others that it was in existence long before, and was only restored by him. Towards the latter part of the year 923, King Edward is recorded to have visited this place himself, and for some time made it his residence, whilst other portion of his troops were engaged in repairing and manning Manchester. These warlike preparations, it may be observed, were rendered necessary in consequence of Ethelwald, the son of King Ethelbert, disputing the title of Edward.

SUMMARY Strictly speaking Thelwall does not qualify, and never has qualified, as a town. However, it is included in the survey of Cheshire’s Historic Towns because it was the site of a ‘burh’ ( a defended centre) in the early 10th century. Such sites were often created as, or grew into, trading centres and are therefore important examples of early urbanism in Cheshire. The burh is the focus of this assessment, therefore only brief attention is paid to the medieval and post medieval settlement. 1.1 Topography and Geology Thelwall lies in northern Cheshire at around 15m AOD, on the fringes of Warrington whose centre lies 4km to the west.

In the history of Manchester, and indeed of South Lancashire as a whole, no other event or enterprise can compare with it in its far-reaching effects. The story, too, in many respects contains all the elements of a romance. It is the relation of a desperate and almost hopeless fight against opposi- tion of the most powerful and uncompromising character, and it is meet that the names and qualities of the men engaged in the strife, and the nature of the difficulties which they encountered and overcame, should find a permanent record. To rescue both individuals and incidents from oblivion, and to give a connected narrative of the course of events from the conception to the completion of the canal, is the object of the present work.
