  • Dobson(1886 - 1956) Dobson Surname
    ELIZABETH E DOBSON(1886 - 1956) DOBSON SURNAME This most interesting surname, of medieval English origin, is a patronymic, of the medieval person- al name "Dobbe", which is itself a pet form of Robert, from "Hrodebert", a Germanic personal name composed of the elements "hrod", renown and "berht", bright, famous. Robert, though found in England before the Norman Conquest, became more widespread among all classes of society afterwards. Dobb itself is a popular surname in the North of England and the Midlands. Other patronymic names from this source include Dobbin(g)s, Dob(b)inson, Dobbison and Dob- bieson. Dobson itself is also found fairly widespread in County Leitrim, Ireland, probably as a result of the influx of early English settlers into the country. One Roger Dobbessone appeared in the "En- forcement of the Statutes of Labourers, 1349 - 1359", in Cheshire (circa 1356). William Dobson (1610 - 1646), was introduced to Charles 1 by Vandyck and was one of the earliest English subject and portrait painters of eminence. John Dobson (1787 - 1865) an architect, designed new streets and public buildings in Newcastle-on-Tyne. He is reputed to be a pioneer of the modern Gothic revival. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Henry Dobbesone, which was dated 1327, in the "Subsidy Rolls of Worcestershire", during the reign of King Edward 111, known as "The Father of the Navy", 1327 - 1377. The Dobson name is recorded 13,187 times in the 1881 census. By the time of 1998 electoral roll there had been a increase in the number to 15,554.

  • Linden Grange Historic Report
    YORKSHIRE GARDENS TRUST Hambleton District Historic Designed Landscapes Project Linden Grange Report by Louise Wickham [July 2017] 1. CORE DATA 1.1 Name of site: Linden Grange [also known as Linden Grove] 1.2 Grid reference: NZ 467056 1.3 Administrative area: Hutton Rudby Civil Parish, Hambleton District, North Yorkshire County (modern), North Riding of Yorkshire (historic) 1.4 Current site designation: Not on the Historic England Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Interest 2. SUMMARY OF HISTORIC INTEREST Linden Grange [Grove] is a late 19th/early 20th century designed landscape of around 97 acres (39 hectares) that retains much of its original planting, although the parkland itself is much reduced through building and reversion to agricultural use. Other features remain such as the avenue from the Lodge that gave the site its name and the pond to the south of the house. 3. HISTORIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE SITE In the mid-18th century the main building, now known as Linden Grange, was constructed on a site called ‘Tunstall Ground’ to the south west of the village of Hutton Rudby. By 1783, this was owned by David Simpson and inherited by his grandson, Benjamin David Suggitt, that year (Graves 1808, 178). On the death of Suggitt in 1823, it passed to his nephew, George Merryweather, the son of his half-brother, also George. When Merryweather married in 1826, he was described as ‘of Suggitt 1 Grove’, so the property had changed its name but by 1839, it was called ‘Linden Grove’ (NYCRO MIC 1795/83). This name change may have been due to the avenue of lime trees leading from the Lodge.

  • Historical Summary & Timeline Periods
    Historical Summary & Timeline Periods Ian Pearce March 2010 It is clearly impossible to capture the history of Cleveland over ten thousand years in a few pages. This timeline tries to set important local events and developments into a national framework. National events have only been included where they made a significant impact on Historic Cleveland. So for example neither the Wars of the Roses or Queen Victoria are mentioned. On the other hand the Roman invasion and William the Conqueror do make an appearance. Important parts of the north-east history that had little effect on Historic Cleveland, such as coal mining, are excluded. We would welcome suggestions for improving this timeline or any corrections to its content. Timeline periods 7600 to 3500 BC Mesolithic • Groups of hunter-gatherer people move around the area, leaving flint artefacts and microliths at early habitation sites (on the sides of the old course of the River Leven and at Seamer Carr). Deer, elk, oxen and boar are hunted. • Britain cut off from mainland Europe in about 7500 BC as sea levels rise. 3500 to 1700 BC Neolithic • More settled farming begins. Hut circles found in the area. Ritual sites are constructed (stone circle at Commondale). Flint artefacts scattered across the Cleveland Plain and the edges of the moors. • Burial sites (chambered cairn on Great Ayton Moor, Street Houses at Loftus). 1700 to 600 BC Bronze age • Tools, weapons and decorative items manufactured from metals. Bronze axes and other implements are introduced, but flint scrapers, blades and arrowheads continue to be used. • Habitation sites are recognisable by flint scatterings (Seamer, Stokesley).
