Expect the Group to start meeting in the Autumn. Page 1 NEWS FROM THE GROUPS Art Appreciation Group In June we went to the Summer Exhibition at the Torquil Gallery in Henley in Arden, which was exceptionally good this year, with a lot of striking paintings, some painted on old wooden panels; animal sculptures by Rachel Higgins among others; some lovely lampshades, and a lot of quirky sculptures and mosaic decorations in the garden. Next month on 15th July will be the summer outing to Upton House, including lunch. Please contact Pat Wood for arrangements. Phyllis Collins Big Band Swing Jazz Group The next meeting of the H of E Big Band Swing and Jazz Group is on Tuesday 26th July 2011 at 2pm in the Lounge of The Methodist Church, Old Town, Stratford upon Avon.

A reminder that our August meeting date has been changed from Tuesday 23rd August to Tuesday 30th August. Also as funds are running low, subscriptions are now due. Dennis Sully Bird Watching Group. The group have had two outings to date to Snitterfield Bushes and Hampton Wood, both are Warwickshire Wildlife sites. Both visits were extremely interesting and we sent a small donation to the W.W.fund for their assistance and allowing us to visit their sites. Further visit planned to Kingsbury Water Park - July 5th. Elizabeth Chambers has arranged a minibus for this visit. We will have some spaces on this trip. If interested contact John Stagg.

We meet every Tuesday afternoon at 2.30 in the Methodist Hall Side Room 1. Complete beginners can contact Ann parker to arrange for introductory sessions. John Yeomans Chinwags We met at Grants again, and I think it was unanimous that the lunch was delicious even though we were all absolutely baking ourselves, we managed to do it justice. Everything was so beautifully presented, and we ate, drank and talked until we were ready to go out into the rain, hoping it would cool us down. The next meeting will again be at Grants on the 25 July, hope to see you all then. If anyone would like to join us please ring Aline Cumming on 298357 Gwyneth Bevins The Choir Now our Musical Director is with the Choir from 12 noon to 1.30pm, may I remind members to be there soon after 11.45am so that we can be organised for the start. We are now looking forward and planning for the September 10th Anniversary meeting and our first performance. Tony Griffiths Classical Music Group We enjoyed another Bring Your Own programme. Jean led off with Bach‟s Brandenburg Concerto No2. In contrast this classical piece was followed by Howard‟s first choice of the romantic Adagio from Rachmaninov‟s Symphony No 2. Rosemary brought the dramatic Arrival of the Queen of Sheba by Handel then from Valma we heard Faure‟s Cantique de Page 2 Jean Racine, familiar but often not identified, George picked Tango by Albeniz to complete the first part. After tea Valma‟s second choice was the Petite Suite by Debussy. This was followed by the Piano Concerto No 2 by Shostakovich played by the orchestra of the Birmingham Conservatoire; the soloist is related to Deidre and she had been present at the performance. An exciting rendition. Finally we heard Howard‟s other choice, On the Trail, from Grose‟s Grand Canon Suite and were transported to the donkeys taking intrepid riders down the trail into the Grand Canon. Another delightful selection! Thanks to all. Aline Cumming Computer Group At Stratford High School. 2nd and 4th Thursdays 4pm – 6pm. A Beginners Course is running for the rest of this term. The final session before the School Holidays is on Thursday, 14th July. Robyn Nicoll Cooks Club Group The Cooks' club summer lunch was a great success despite depleted numbers; who would have thought that a quiche lorraine could be made using rolled out bread instead of pastry! Asparagus flan, salad, chocolate roulade and coffee ice cream completed the lineup. Diet tomorrow! You don't have to be a culinary whizz kid to join us - just come along and learn a few tips, pick up some new recipes etc. The next meeting will be on July 27th at 10.45 am, when a couple of members are bringing in puddings for us to sample. For more information, tel 01789 550662. Chris Heaps Chris Heap‟s Poem written after the Cook‟s Group Meeting when Geoff Bridgewater had told us the sad tale of a large salmon in his freezer that he was loathe to part with. Ah! Pity the poor salmon who never made his great debut At the house of Heather and Geoff (A talented, scone-making chef) The salmon, quite a hefty geezer, had languished too long in the freezer. The Salmon became the lively hub of jokes, and at the cooking club Geoff would ask, on a monthly basis "Were there any other cases Where a salmon, left so long had been cooked, or would it pong?" We said "You've sealed that Salmon's fate 'cos you have left it far too late To put that salmon on a plate it's surely past its sell-by date!" So Geoff eventually saw sense, despite the salmon's great expense With tail, reproachful eye and fin he chucked it in the rubbish bin And now, at Geoff's sincere request the matter has been put to rest! Athena Roderick Creative Craft Group At the June meeting, the group were given ideas and tips for doing encaustic art pictures by Geoff James and Roy Tabor. Geoff‟s wife Margaret, a very keen crafter and card maker, sadly died recently and Geoff has donated waxes and equipment for the group to use. Geoff came along specially to demonstrate techniques. Roy had discovered Encaustic Art in 1996 and brought a portfolio of some of his exquisite miniature pictures. Members are keen to experiment further in this art form and will be arranging another day workshop in August, open to anyone who would like to come along. At the next Craft afternoon, on Thursday, 21st July, starting at 2.00pm, we will be making a beaded chain for spectacles. Beads, thread and connectors will be supplied and members will need to bring 2 fine beading needles.

  • SKIDMORES of RURAL WARWICKSHIRE.Pdf
    Skidmore & Skidsmore Families of rural Warwickshire Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study SKIDMORE AND SKIDSMORE FAMILIES OF RURAL WARWICKSHIRE 1550-1915 Minor amendments were last made to by Linda Moffatt © 2012 this account by Linda Moffatt on 24 July 2016. It has been my privilege to add to the account by Warren Skidmore of the first 150 years of this family in Warwickshire, from its probable origins in Siddington Langley, Gloucestershire in the early 16th century (a family itself out of the ancient family at Holme Lacy, Herefordshire). He lends to the history of this family, as to others, his considerable knowledge and experience of interpreting records of the 12th-16th centuries and applying them to family history. Over many years' work he has tried, and in large succeeded, in tracking the movement of individuals before 1650 out of Herefordshire and Somerset to other parts of Britain and to the US. Warren Skidmore's work on this branch of the wider Skidmore/Scudamore family can be found on the website www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com as an occasional paper with the title The Skydmores in the Environs of Stratford-On-Avon, Warks. Much of Generations 1-5 below are based heavily on this paper. For my part, I have taken the story from the 18th into the early 20th century, with the census of 1911 as my end point. I have not included any detail beyond 1915 to preserve the privacy of living descendants. If you would like to include your 20th century family in this account, please contact me via [email protected] (LM).
