  • The Emergence of the Cumbrian Kingdom
    The emergence and transformation of medieval Cumbria The Cumbrian kingdom is one of the more shadowy polities of early medieval northern Britain.1 Our understanding of the kingdom’s history is hampered by the patchiness of the source material, and the few texts that shed light on the region have proved difficult to interpret. A particular point of debate is the interpretation of the terms ‘Strathclyde’ and ‘Cumbria’, a matter that has periodically drawn comment since the 1960s. Some scholars propose that the terms were applied interchangeably to the same polity, which stretched from Clydesdale to the Lake District. Others argue that the terms applied to different territories: Strathclyde was focused on the Clyde Valley whereas Cumbria/Cumberland was located to the south of the Solway. The debate has significant implications for our understanding of the extent of the kingdom(s) of Strathclyde/Cumbria, which in turn affects our understanding of politics across tenth- and eleventh-century northern Britain. It is therefore worth revisiting the matter in this article, and I shall put forward an interpretation that escapes from the dichotomy that has influenced earlier scholarship. I shall argue that the polities known as ‘Strathclyde’ and ‘Cumbria’ were connected but not entirely synonymous: one evolved into the other. In my view, this terminological development was prompted by the expansion of the kingdom of Strathclyde beyond Clydesdale. This reassessment is timely because scholars have recently been considering the evolution of Cumbrian identity across a much longer time-period. In 1974 the counties of Cumberland and Westmorland were joined to Lancashire-North-of the-Sands and part of the West Riding of Yorkshire to create the larger county of Cumbria.

Carlisle’s privileged women support this charitable home for poor elderly women. 1893—The first patients arrive at Lydia Baird about a month after the hospital/poor home opens. The arrival of patients who were Barnum and Bailey Circus employees makes quite a stir. Reportedly, excited hospital officials forget to call a doctor! 1896—The Todd Hospital opens at North West and “F” Streets in Carlisle. Funded by an endowment from Sarah Todd, patients pay a sliding fee based on their income. The first year is quite lean, with operations being done on the kitchen table. The board of lady managers asks for donations from the community and hold fundraisers which include the Carlisle Indian School band and orchestra. The managers also establish a tradition of hospital Donation Day, asking for everything from funds to bed linens. Many contribute, including Carlisle school children who donate one potato each. Todd Hospital closes in 1916 and transfers its assets and patients to the Carlisle Hospital. 1913 —The Carlisle Hospital is chartered.

For a more in-depth history of each office and department consult County Government and Archives in Pennsylvania edited by Sylvester K. Stevenson and Donald H. Kent (Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission. Harrisburg, 1947). Prologue…. In 1750, the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania met in Philadelphia and passed an act creating the County of Cumberland. The legislature carved Cumberland from Lancaster County, and the new county covered most of Pennsylvania west of the Susquehanna River. The next year the Proprietor, Thomas Penn, settled the county seat twenty miles west of the Susquehanna and mid-way between North and South Mountains. Other sites had vied for the honor of being the courthouse town, but his site, a low hill bounded on the east by a small stream, the LeTort, won the favor of Penn and his brother, John. The town was called Carlisle, after Carlisle, England, and it bore the same chess board plan enjoyed by Philadelphia. Streets intersected at right angles, the two chief streets, High and Hanover, crossing to form a large public square.

  • The Retreat of the Highlanders Through Westmoreland in 1745
    The Retreat of the Highlanders through Westmoreland in 1745. BY R. S. FERGUSON, F.S.A., LOC. SEC. S.A. FOR CUMBERLAND; CHANCELLOR OF CARLISLE. SOME time in the year 1886 I was in the keep of the old castle of Newcastle-upon- Tyne, which is occupied by the Society of Antiquaries of that city for the purposes of their museum. My attention was attracted to a manuscript plan hanging in one of the deep window recesses; its limits were defined by a broad margin of red paint, within which a vast tartan boa constrictor seemed to be endeavouring to swallow a church and sundry red and black blocks. On a closer inspection I found that the plan was titled An Exact Plan OF THE SKIRMISH ON CLIFTON MOOR; that the red and black blocks represented the forces of the Duke of Cumberland; and that the tartan boa constrictor was nothing else than the Highland army, or a part of it. As I have always thought that the history of the retreat of the Highlanders through Westmoreland in December, 1745, has been very inadequately dealt with by all previous writers, I viewed this strange plan with much interest: by the courtesy of the officials of the Newcastle Society of Antiquaries the plan was entrusted to me for examination, and a fac-simile of it is here reproduced as Plate xxiv. My first enquiries were as to how the Society became possessed of it, and Mr. G. J. Spence was kind enough to make the necessary searches, with the following result:—In the Archaologia Ailiana, vol.
