So many parishes in S.E. Derbyshire have been dealt with in this Series that it was hoped and intended that the present volume would be devoted entirely to the High Peak district and would contain a compact group of adjacent parishes, an arrangement which always brings out in a peculiar degree the value of this method of printing the complete Marriage Registers of a whole district. Unfortunately it was not found possible to obtain sufficient MS. from the High Peak without delaying indefinitely the issue of the volume, already overdue. The latter third of the book, therefore, has been filled with the important Register of Repton, the MS. of which had been ready for some time. The Repton abstracts were made by Mr. Simpson and Mr. E. B. Smith ; those of Chapel-en-le-Frith, which contain so many entries of old-established Peak families as to be of exceptional interest to genealogists, were done by of Fairfield Mr. W. Braylesford Bunting ,; and those and Buxton are kindly supplied by Mr. John Brandreth and Mr.

Robert Noel’s finding in the College of Arms Archives and Evelyn Lyon’s article about an evacuee demonstrate coincidence and sometimes hitherto unknown connections with Campden, while John Sermon’s research into the Old King’s Arms gives us much new information about the building. Mary Fielding’s analysis of a 1614 letter to Baptist Hicks leads to us question what he really was like and just who was telling the truth. The Archive Room query team too has been busy helping enquirers with Campden connections or interest. Each Signpost is entered onto our website a few months after publication. This is useful when you want to see a photograph in colour or larger, for instance, the Woodroffe windows.

As a consequence, the borough had no single point of remembrance for those who died during the Great War. Indeed, a list of those souls local to the area who surrendered their lives in defence of our country was not in existence.

Less than a year ago the euro was worth nearly $1.40 on international markets. Earlier this month it stood at less than $1.05, down by a quarter as the European Central Bank embarks on a massive stimulus program while the US Federal Reserve is widely expected to start raising interest rates. By the standards of first-world forex markets it ranks as a collapse. It has recorded a similar performance against China’s yuan currency, falling from almost 8.7 yuan in May to bottom at less than 6.6 yuan. The yuan trades in a tight range against the dollar.

  • Memories of Uttoxeter (1919-1990)
    MEMORIES OF UTTOXETER (1919-1990) DORA FOWLES, NEE LEVEY (1912-2000) FOREWORD I came to know Dora Fowles, nee Levey in the early 1990s when she was in her eighties and living at Hawthornden Crescent, Uttoxeter. She was a regular contributor of old postcards to the local Uttoxeter newspapers. She was a keen photographer and during the 1960s and 70s she regularly took slide photos of Uttoxeter events and scenes. She was best known for her shop The Beehive an art and needlework shop at the corner of the High Street and Bradley Street. Soon after I met her I started writing down her memories of Uttoxeter with the intention of publishing them in a book along with those of Ernest Martin Mellor the Uttoxeter chemist and John Walker the Uttoxeter baker. Unfortunately circumstances at the time prevented this happening but I am very happy that Dora’s memories can now be published online to be read by probably a lot more people than would have read the book. Dora gave me her slide collection to do with what I wished. Some I donated to Staffordshire PastTrack the county council’s online photographic record and can now be seen at the click of a mouse. Some appear in this memoir. The majority were given to John Walton of Uttoxeter for his Museum of Uttoxeter artefacts which now operates from his museum at Beamhurst and is run by John with the help of his wife Laura and daughter Bethany. Laura has recently converted the slides to photos and put digital versions on the museum computer.

  • December Newsletter
    NEWSLETTER December 2017 i) COMMENTS A Merry Christmas to everyone. PEEMS has had a very varied year in 2017 with quite a few successes and a few disappointments. Many new people have been turning up at our club meetings, expressing the desire to became members, and the attendance at meetings has also been good, so much so that our subscriptions this year have not had to increase. In fact, at our AGM in November our treasurer assured us that our finances are still healthy and ‘in the black’! The year started with Mike Sayers very generously giving PEEMS permission to use the full workshop area, on his site, and during the year the workshop has become fully functioning. This began in February with the delivery of the milling machine from George’s workshop to our own. Much work has been done by members insulating the workshop, and installing the electrics, with the effect that all equipment had been installed, and made safe by August, not bad going! In February we were given an excellent talk by Roger Taylor on car engine management and fuel injection systems, where the essential components were explained in detail. In March the club members were treated to a very nice (I’m trying not to use the word ‘excellent’ all the time. Ed) annual dinner at ‘Oscars’ in Norton, organised by our previous Chairman Jim Everett. We have had two ‘Bring and Brag’ meetings during the year, with the March club meeting resulting in nine exhibits, and the October club meeting resulting in thirteen exhibits, a healthy increase, and illustrating the very high standard and variety of member’s abilities and skills.
