For the historical and biographical background for the individuals, firms and organisations within the collection, see each specific entry Custodial history: Transferred from Hull Museums. Many of these items have a museum deposit reference number beginning with the letters 'DB'. This refers to a day book which was an inventory that Thomas Sheppard, former director of Hull Museums, used. This book was kept in the stores in Albion Street and was destroyed during WWII.

  • Early Chapters in Hull Methodism, 1746-1800

Professor Max Muixer, 1890. : Early Chapters — IN — 4Tull Methodism. 1746— 1800. BY W. H. THOMPSON. 'How is this town changed since I preached on the Carr." Wesley's Journal, 1774. LONDON Charles H. Relly, 2, C8Btle Street, City Road, E.C. HULL: A. T. K. Feetwell, 35 and 36, Scale Lane. 1895. PREFACE. THE following notices of Early Hull Metho- dism were originally contributed to the local Wesleyan Record. These sketches were so favourably received, that we have been en- couraged to put them into more extended and permanent form ; the story being well worth the telling. Introduced here about 1746, only some seven years after the formation of the first of John Wesley's societies, Methodism has long reckoned Hull as one of its strongholds. On Mr. Wesley's death, it was from this town that the whole question was raised, as to whether or not, Methodism was to remain a mere auxiliary of the Established Church. An epoch marking event this, fraught with issues of the highest importance in ecclesiastical history. At this advanced period it is altogether idle to discuss too curiously Mr. Wesley's own theoretical views concerning the great movement of which he was the founder, and the apparent VI. PREFACE. want of harmony between his later practices, and the earlier expressions of his creed. Our 4 'father" might aptly be likened unto that bold Genoese of the fifteenth century, who sailed out into the unknown west, seeking the golden Orient, by the pathway of the setting sun.

  • C DEHG Hull Grammar School Records 1750-2002
    Hull History Centre: Hull Grammar School Records C DEHG Hull Grammar School Records 1750-2002 Accession number: 05/11 Historical Background: Hull Grammar School (HGS) was endowed by John Alcock, Bishop of Worcester in 1479. The son of a Hull apprenticed merchant, Alcock eventually rose to become lord chancellor. An arrangement with the corporation would allow the property owned by the school to pay the salary of the schoolmaster, who would also be a priest and celebrate mass in the chantry chapel paid for by Alcock. The school was situated on the south side of Holy Trinity Church. With the suppression of chantries in 1548, the net value of the stipend in effect became nationalised and was paid for by the government until the time of Queen Victoria. During this period the corporation of Hull gradually resumed control of the school, appointing masters and occasionally buying new books or regulating fees. In 1583 the school moved to a new site, still on South Church side, a site they were to occupy until 1878. The corporation’s right to appoint the schoolmaster was confirmed by the charter of King James I in 1611. The school and the corporation continued to develop close links, although the number of boys in the school fluctuated. When Andrew Marvell attended during the 1630s there were about 100 boys: in 1680 there were only 29. There was also no prescribed time for entering or leaving the school, although 7 or 8 years was generally the rule. William Wilberforce was 7 when he started in 1776. During the late 17th and early 18th centuries, the school experienced some severe financial difficulties as the endowment could not provide enough income.

  • L DLTW Various Special Editions of 'Old and New Hull,' by T. Tindall
    Hull History Centre: ‘Old and New Hull’ by T. Tindall Wildridge L DLTW Various special editions of 'Old and New Hull,’ by T. Tindall Wildridge Biographical Background: Thomas Tindall Wildridge (1858-1928), records clerk, antiquarian, artist and author, was born in the St Pauls area of Sculcoates in 1858 to Thomas and Elizabeth Wildridge. His father was a local timber merchant. After attending Hull Grammar School, Thomas Tindall was employed in the Hull Dock Offices, before becoming the Corporation of Hull's first records clerk in 1884. He was to be paid £10 per month, with most of his time to be spent on indexing. Despite delivering some 144 cwt of records for destruction he did manage to catalogue numerous others. Many of these records were likely to have provided him with information for some of his own works, such as 'The Honorary Freedom of Kingston upon Hull' and 'Holderness and Hullshire Historic Gleanings'. In December 1892, Wildridge submitted a translation of the Edward I Charter. In November 1893 the Corporation gave him three months to complete his work, and by 1894 he had been dismissed. In 1892 Wildridge was the driving force behind the formation of the East Riding Antiquarian Society, which was later 'admitted into union with the Society of Antiquities (of London)'. He later became the honorary librarian of the Municipal Library but failed to get the post of chief librarian of Hull. After retiring, Wildridge moved away from the area and died in 1928 in Waddesdon, near Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. Custodial history: These editions were deemed too valuable to leave simply within the local studies library classification scheme and therefore have been listed separately and treated as a special collection.

  • C TCE Records of the Hull City Council Technical Instruction 1836-1975 and Education Committees
    Hull History Centre: Records of the Hull City Council Technical Instruction and Education Committees C TCE Records of the Hull City Council Technical Instruction 1836-1975 and Education Committees Historical Background: The Technical Instruction Act, 1889, allowed local authorities to levy rates in order to develop technical or manual education in their area. This would be distinct from the elementary education provided by the school boards, which had been established in 1870 and were separate bodies from the local council. In addition, in 1890 under the Local Taxation (Custom and Excise) Act, authorities could divert money raised from taxing publicans for the purposes of providing technical instruction. As a consequence, Hull Town Council set up the Technical Instruction Committee in December 1890. The committee was to consider and report to the Council as to the application of the said Acts. All communication forwarded to the Council with respect to this subject would be referred to this committee. It was under such provision, that the city set up it's museum and art gallery. The Technical Instruction Committee was terminated from November 1903 when it became the Education Committee, as the school boards had been abolished and the city council had taken over responsibility for elementary education. At this time, the committee’s powers and provisions remained largely the same, except for one addition, which was the duty 'to carry out the Education Acts 1870 to 1902 within the area of the City Council'. The functions of the committee with regard to the museum and art gallery were transferred to the Property Committee at the same time.

The sign on the front of the lighthouse tells us; the Wardens of Trinity House at this time were William Collinson and George Hall. The lighthouse went out of use in 1870 when the sandbanks moved and caused the channel to shift, when this happened new lighthouses were built at Thorngumbald Clough and Salt End. The cottages that surround the lighthouse were not built at the same time as the lighthouse, the terraces of small cottages already ran along the river front (the coastguard cottages) and also along Town End Road (Penny Cottages) with a clear space at the corner where the lighthouse was built as a separate, free-standing tower. A Mr Robert Thompson bought the land that the Lighthouse is built on in 1820. Cottages linking the two terraces to the tower were added on at a later time. Penny Cottages were eventually demolished, apart from the one attached to the lighthouse, and further extensions have continued since. Today the 40 feet (12m) lighthouse is a Grade II listed building which has been converted into a 3 bedroom house Right: This photo shows the Paull Lighthouse on the north bank of the Humber Estuary. Photo by Howard Selina Below: A view of the Paull lighthouse and the terraces of small cottages running along the river front.
