In 171 1 a Custom House official wrote to his superior in Edinburgh, " that in Ruthwell the people are such friends to the traffic, no one can be found to lodge a Government officer for the night." April 17, 1717, was appointed as a day of solemn fasting to avert the intended invasion of an enemy, and the threatened scarcity of bread- generally made of rye or oatmeal—owing to the severity of the weather. In 1720 we find a complaint at the meeting of the Presbytery that the Kirk was losing its power over the people, swearing—so far as the expressions in a theatre was opened "faith" and "devil" were sometimes heard ; and 1729 in Edinburgh. A minister wa3 suspended for attending it. The Scots were notably a charitable people, and, though the population of Scotland was but a million and a quarter, they supported a vagrant population 1 of 200,000 early in the eighteenth century, besides licensed bedesmen. In better times there were periodical offertories in the Churches for the benefit of seamen enslaved by the Turkish and Barbary Corsairs in the Mediterranean, in the galleys others who had their tongues cut out or been otherwise crippled ; were still in need of ransom. But the epidemics carried about by the vagrants, the dearness of provisions, added to the abolition of the Scottish Parliament, sent many landowners, particularly on the Borders, to live in England. The in and it new Marquis of Annandale began to spend most of his time London ; was on the " parlour door of his lodgings in the Abbey " of Westminster that Robert Allane, Sheriff's messenger of Annan, knocked the six knocks and affixed the document showing that he had been put to the horn, because, as Provost of Annan, he had taken no steps to arrest Galabank for debt—the application having been made by Mr Patrick Inglis, the deposed Episcopalian minister of Annan.

His reasons for undertaking this work, and the objects which he had in view in writing it, are so fully developed by himself in the Introductory Chapter, that all further explanations by me on these points would l^e superfluous. It may be right to observe, that although my Father, throughout this Narrative, has invariably given to my Grandfather the title of " Sir Ralph," liy which he was most generally known, it was only on the 15th of July 1795, that the Order of the Bath, from which he derived it, was conferred upon him in acknowledo;ment of his services.

  • The Limits of Social Mobility: Social Origins and Career Patterns of British Generals, 1688-1815
    The London School of Economics and Political Science The Limits of Social Mobility: social origins and career patterns of British generals, 1688-1815 Andrew B. Wood A thesis submitted to the Department of Economic History of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, November, 2011 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without the prior written consent of the author. I warrant that this authorization does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 88,820 words. 2 Abstract Late eighteenth-century Britain was dominated by two features of economic life that were a major departure from previous eras, the economic growth of the Industrial Revolution and almost constant warfare conducted on a previously unprecedented scale. One consequence of this was the rapid expansion, diversification and development of the professions. Sociologists and economists have often argued that economic development and modernisation leads to increasing rates of social mobility. However, historians of the army and professions in the eighteenth-century claim the upper levels of the army were usually isolated from mobility as the highest ranks were dominated by sons of the aristocracy and landed elite.

'HPHE compilation of the present index was commenced several years ago, and has proved a longer and more tedious task than at the outset was anticipated. It was at first intended to include only changes of name efifected under the royal sign manual, or by the authority of a private act of parliament. But so many changes have been effected irregularly within the last half century, that it was thought it would be a matter of some practical utility if they also could be included, even though they were without authority, and this accordingly has been done, though it has somewhat delayed the completion of the index, and added in no small degree to the labour of compiling it. But if it adds to the utility of the index, the compilers will be fully satisfied. The sources from which this index has been compiled are several.

"The Heraldry of the Douglases" {only a few copies remain). 6. "The Heraldry of the Hamiltons" (only a few copies remain). Preface. AS stated in my Heraldry of the Douglases, the similarity of the Arms borne by that family and by the Murrays suggests a common origin. The Douglases bore: Argent, on a chief azure three stars of the field (Plate II., fig. i) ; and the Murrays of Bothwell bore : Azure, three stars argent. The name of Murray is derived from their first lands in Moray, the owner being styled " de Moravia," which gradually became Moray or Murray. The families of Bothwell and Abercairny were Morays, and all the others Murrays. The different families of Moray or Murray are apparently all descended from the Morays of Bothwell, but the connecting links are now lost, and the origin of each family is a matter of conjecture or dispute.

  • Ruthin Castle Collection
    DENBIGHSHIRE ARCHIVES DD/RC Records of Ruthin Castle Estate (1604-1949) In 1632 the Ruthin Castle Estate was purchased from the Crown by Sir Thomas Myddelton of Chirk Castle (1585-1666), who acquired the stewardship of the lordship in 1635. He was MP for Denbighshire from 1625, was elected for the Long Parliament and became a Parliamentary commander during the Civil War. Sir William Myddelton (1694-1718), 4th baronet, a copy of whose will is in this archive (ref: DD/RC/1164) died unmarried and the baronetcy became extinct. The Chirk Castle Estate, with the lordships of Chirk, Chirklands and Ruthin passed to Robert, younger son of Richard Myddelton of Llysfasi by his wife Elizabeth Ryder. Robert died without heirs in 1733 and was succeeded by his brother, John (d. 1747). John’s son Richard and then his son of the same name can be found on mortgages of the Ruthin estate and other property from the 1750s onwards. On the death of John's grandson, Richard Myddelton of Chirk Castle, the last surviving male heir of the Myddelton family in 1796, the estate was divided between his sisters Charlotte, Maria and step-sister Harriet. Charlotte and Maria were the daughters of Elizabeth (nee Rushout, d. 1772), sister of Lord Northwick, and Harriet the daughter of Mary, formerly Mary Lloyd of Rhydwriel (d. 1788). The original division was disputed resulting in an Act of Parliament dated 1819 which was directed by the High Court of Chancery. The Chirk Castle Estate passed to the eldest sister, Charlotte, wife of Robert Biddulph of Ledbury, Herefordshire, who prefixed his surname with Myddelton.
