  • U DPA Patrington Manorial Records 1577-1829 of the Marshall Family
    Hull History Centre: Patrington Manorial records of the Marshall Family U DPA Patrington Manorial records 1577-1829 of the Marshall Family Historical background: The manor of Patrington in the East Riding of Yorkshire belonged to the archbishops of York until 1545 until it passed into the hands of the crown. It was held by the crown until 1631 when Charles I assigned it to Henrietta Maria, so keeping it in royal hands. During the interregnum it was leased to Matthew Alured, MP for Hedon, but at the restoration it reverted back to the trustees of Henrietta Maria. For a while it was assigned to Katherine of Braganza, the consort of Charles II, as part of her marriage jointure. In 1698 it finally passed out of royal ownership and has been owned successively by the Aldsworth family from 1698 to 1728, by the duke of Portland 1728 to 1735, by the Crowle family 1735 to 1739 and then the Maister family of Hull. The Maisters held it as part of their country estate centred on Winestead for the next 90 years until they sold it in 1829 to Colonel Thoroton Hildyard. In 1846 it was purchased by the Marshall family who also acquired land through the inclosure of Burton Fleming in 1769. The Marshall family remained the owners of Patrington manor into the twentieth century. Custodial History: Donated by Richard Marshall, Lairthwaite, Kendal, in 1932 Description: These records from the manor of Patrington were presented to the library in 1932 by Richard Marshall whose family had been lords of the manor since 1846.

In the last decade environmental policy has increased the support for renewable electricity. At the same time the electricity sector was often subject of antitrust investigation because of relevant market concentration, and mar­ ket power. This dissertation looks at the renewable electricity market to analyze the effect of environmental policy on competition.

  • Accepted Manuscript 1 Women's Last Wills and Testaments in Hull, England
    Women's Last Wills and Testaments in Hull, England (c. 1450–1555) Elisabeth Salter Over the last fifty years, medieval and early modern cultural history has witnessed an important shift towards exploring the life stories of those individuals who did not belong to the cultural or political elite. This shift was foreshadowed by pioneering scholars such as Eileen Power, who was publishing works devoted to exploring the “labours and passions of the flesh and blood” of the “quite ordinary person” in the 1920s.1 It is now acknowledged that not only is it possible to investigate the lives of those people who formed the majority of the population, it is also important and valuable for our understandings of the past.2 Moreover, studying the lives of pre- modern women is a crucial element in this project of historical reconstruction.3 1 See Eileen Power, Medieval People (London: Pelican, 1924); Margaret Spufford, Contrasting Communities: English Villagers in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1974); Marjorie K. McIntosh, Autonomy and Community: The Royal Manor of Havering, 1200–1500 (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1986); and John A. F. Thomson, ed., Townspeople in the Fifteenth Century (London: Sutton, 1988), esp. Rosemary Horrox, “The Urban Gentry in the Fifteenth Century,” 22–44. 2 See Christopher Dyer, Standards of Living in the Later Middle Ages: Social Change in England, c. 1200–1520 (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1989). 3 For pioneering studies of pre-modern women’s lives and work
