  • Branscombe Diaspora
    BRANSCOMBE DIASPORA If you look through the old parish registers or census returns, or wander round the graveyard, you’ll find family names that lasted for over a century – Bartletts, Perrys, Dowells, Deans, Frenchs, Gushs, Northcotts, Piles, Pikes, Wards, to name just a few. Nowadays these families have all gone. There are a few exceptions – a couple of Dowells, a Cox, a few hidden below a different surname (Betty Rowson was a Somers; Eileen Carpenter a Northcott; Jean Brimson a Perryman; Ivor Dowell’s mother was a Dean; John Bass’s a French; Sid Sweetland’s wife a Gosling; and Bill Carpenter & Frank Adlam are both members of the Ward clan) - but that’s all. People left the parish for many reasons. Branscombe was never a rich village and opportunities to get on’ were few and far between. By the nineteenth century – and earlier as well – people left to seek work, or maybe they’d got a girl in trouble, run up debts, or run foul of ‘important’ people within the community. Some, no doubt, went out of a spirit of adventure. By the mid nineteenth century, with the railways opening up, and mines and factories, London, Manchester, and South Wales were favoured locations. But some went much further afield, to the States and Canada, Australia and New Zealand, and South Africa. And it is these people that we would like to track. We’ve combed through our oral history transcripts, added details from the Parish Registers and Census Returns, as well as other stray references. We intend to trace the names of some of the ships on which the emigrants sailed.

  • Microbial Study on Corrosion
    AN INVESTIGATION OF MICROBIAL DIVERSITY AND MICROBIOLOGICALLY INFLUENCED CORROSION IN AUTOMOTIVE FUEL ENVIRONMENTS by Charles H.D. Williamson IV A thesis submitted to the Faculty and the Board of Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Environmental Science and Engineering). Golden, Colorado Date ____________________________ Signed: ___________________________ _ Charles H.D. Williamson IV Signed: ____________________________ Dr. John R. Spear Thesis Advisor Golden, Colorado Date ____________________________ Signed: ____________________________ Dr. John McCray Professor and Director Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering ii ABSTRACT Microbial contamination of fuels can cause issues such as biofouling, fuel degradation and microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). The focus of the research presented in this thesis was characterizing the microbial diversity of automotive fuels and automotive fuel environments in the United States via both molecular-based techniques as well as cultivation- based methods in order to gain insight into how this diversity is impacting fuels and fuel system infrastructure. A field survey of fuels including biodiesel, diesel, E10, E85, fuel-grade ethanol and gasoline was conducted; and 454 pyrosequencing of both 16S/18S rRNA genes as well as 16S/18S rRNA (transcribed into cDNA) was applied to identify both total and active microbial communities in these environments. Microbial communities in all fuel types were broadly similar, and prevalent phylotypes included Halomonas spp., Pseudomonas spp., Shewanella spp., Corynebacterium spp. and Acetobacter spp. Pyrosequencing libraries generated from cDNA and DNA indicated that the active and total communities of the sampled environments show significant overlap. The microbial communities of storage tanks containing fuel-grade ethanol and water were also characterized by molecular and cultivation-based techniques.
