Catalogue Transfer Project Temporary closure of Kent Archive and Local History service at the Kent History and Library Centre, 9-26 December 2019 Work on phase 1 of our Catalogue Transfer Project by staff and volunteers is now drawing to a close. This means that we have now almost completed typing up and uploading all of the outstanding paper catalogues that predated the introduction of our electronic cataloguing software and its online counterpart. In total, we have completed typing up almost 500 archive catalogues. The next phase of this project is to enable readers to order documents directly from our online catalogue. In 2017, Kent Archives launched its own website and integrated catalogue, enabling readers to find out more about our services and collections all in one place at www.kentarchives.org.uk. Making our collections orderable Some of the rare books held in Kent Archives’ local history collection that require catalogue online will involve checking all of entries to be created, as well as packaging, barcoding and locating, prior to being orderable on our existing online catalogues for our online catalogue. errors in the structure and arrangement of the entries, which if uncorrected would prevent our users from being able to locate and identify relevant records. We also need to produce catalogue entries for our extensive local history collections, which have previously only been partially listed on the Kent libraries catalogue.

    > g s J> ° "^ Q as : F7 lA-dh-**^) THE EVOLUTION OF THE STEAM LOCOMOTIVE (1803 to 1898.) BY Q. A. SEKON, Editor of the "Railway Magazine" and "Hallway Year Book, Author of "A History of the Great Western Railway," *•., 4*. SECOND EDITION (Enlarged). £on&on THE RAILWAY PUBLISHING CO., Ltd., 79 and 80, Temple Chambers, Temple Avenue, E.C. 1899. T3 in PKEFACE TO SECOND EDITION. When, ten days ago, the first copy of the " Evolution of the Steam Locomotive" was ready for sale, I did not expect to be called upon to write a preface for a new edition before 240 hours had expired. The author cannot but be gratified to know that the whole of the extremely large first edition was exhausted practically upon publication, and since many would-be readers are still unsupplied, the demand for another edition is pressing. Under these circumstances but slight modifications have been made in the original text, although additional particulars and illustrations have been inserted in the new edition. The new matter relates to the locomotives of the North Staffordshire, London., Tilbury, and Southend, Great Western, and London and North Western Railways. I sincerely thank the many correspondents who, in the few days that have elapsed since the publication: of the "Evolution of the , Steam Locomotive," have so readily assured me of - their hearty appreciation of the book. rj .;! G. A. SEKON. -! January, 1899. PREFACE TO FIRST EDITION. In connection with the marvellous growth of our railway system there is nothing of so paramount importance and interest as the evolution of the locomotive steam engine.

  • Annual Report
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society •ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR 1966 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31sT DECEMBER, 1966 Council presents its One Hundred and Eighth Report, and the State- ment of Accounts for 1965. OBITUARY It is with the greatest regret that Council records the death of Mrs. Nancy Piercy Fox, which occurred on 30th March, 1966. She had been a valued member of the Society since 1936, and a member of Council since 1953. She occupied a foremost place in the field of excavation and, from 1955 to her death, conducted on behalf of the Society a full investigation into the problem of the Iron Age in Kent, a most valuable addition to knowledge by which she will be especially remembered. A Fund has been established by the Society to her memory, by the gift of £2,000 from the Keston Field Club and Dr. E. V. Piercy Fox, for the publication of archmo- logical research, an object in which she took a very close personal interest. A full obituary appears in this volume. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING The Annual General Meeting was held in the Museum, Maidstone, on 14th May, 1966, the President in the Chair. Council's Annual Report and Statement of Accounts for 1965 were received and adopted. After the luncheon interval, an audience of eighty members and their friends heard a most interesting lecture by Mr. C. R. Councer, F.S.A., embodying the results of his recent researches on the Dissolution of the Monasteries in Kent.

  • “Lucet in Tenebris Veritas”: the Records of Kent's Two Dioceses
    Issue 15, Autumn 2019 Image from U269/O186/2 (c.1777), Lt. Notebook of Lieutenant Whitworth of the Royal Regiment of Artillery. “Lucet in Tenebris Veritas”: The Records of Kent’s Two Dioceses (A Day Conference) 28 September 9.30 a.m. for 10.00 a.m., Kent History and Library Centre. Tickets: £12 to include a buffet lunch, booking essential. Don’t forget Kent Archives’ special one-day conference that is being held to mark the recent consolidation of the archives of Kent’s two ecclesiastical dioceses, Rochester and Canterbury, under one roof at the Kent History and Library Centre. To promote this landmark event, we are adopting the Latin motto of the seventeenth-century notary public William Somner, whose penwork can be found in contemporary documents found among the archives. Lucit in tenebris veritas, meaning ‘the truth shines in darkness’, expounds the effect that we hope our speakers will have: that is, by exploring some of the rich diversity of material found in these collections they will shed light – where perhaps there was previously darkness – on a range of topics relevant to people interested in different sorts of history, including family, local, cultural, and ecclesiastical. Documents from both collections will be on display. The conference will feature papers by: • Ken Fincham (University of Kent) on the Clergy of the Church of England Database • Catherine Richardson (University of Kent) on the early modern household • Timothy Brittain-Catlin (University of Kent) on Queen Anne’s Bounty • Celia Heritage (Ancestry Progenealogists) on wills and probate records for the family historian • Sheila Sweetinburgh (Canterbury Christ Church University) on lay piety in late medieval Kent • Paula Simpson (Wren Library, Trinity College Cambridge) on the involvement of women in early modern tithe disputes For further information or bookings please call us on 03000 420673 or email [email protected].

    The BBLHS Companion to Horsburgh’s Bromley Being a transcription of notes added by William Baxter to Bromley From the earliest timest to the present century by E.L.S. Horsburgh published in 1929 with copies of the added pictures and drawings together with some additional information and explanation. ©Bromley Borough Local History Society 2017 Horsburgh’s Bromley Companion Introduction When Edward Horsburgh completed Bromley from the earliest times to the present century in 1929, it represented the culmination of many years work by a number of people. It was also rather late, having been intended to record the town’s history up to around 1900 and be published soon after! However, apart from the delay caused by the Great War, it is perhaps not surprising that being the result of work by a committee of local worthies, agreement on what should be included or excluded caused some dissension. Without the modern benefits of word processing, it was also more difficult to review and amend any text and it appears that the decision to publish was to an extent one of “now or never”. Following publication, one committee member at least, William Baxter, took some exception to the accuracy and range of the contents to the extent that he started making amendments and additions to the published text. These changes grew to such a point that he eventually dismembered a copy of the book, inserted his changes and had it rebound in two volumes. At the end of this Companion will be found a critique of the original book, which is well worth reading, as it points out Baxter’s somewhat ambivalent involvement and the books limitations which, sadly have not yet been rectified, in the topics covered and the way what was done was less than ideal.
