All Rights Reserved Started: 040705, Updated: 042405 Page 1 of 26 Hutchinson Family – Westmorland -> Glamorgan -> Devonshire HUTCHINSON Family Apparently James Hutchinson was born in Westmoreland in the late 1700s and moved to Glamorgan by about 1830. His son James Hutchinson (hereafter referred to as James (Jr.) though his name never appeared this way) was born in Glamorgan and then moved to Barnstaple Devon after the death of his first wife. All of James’ (Jr.) children ultimately left Glamorgan for the environs of London and other locales! So, this branch of the family was fairly mobile and not long-rooted, at least these two generations! The mapi on page 3 (showing the “old” counties) gives you a sense of where these locales all are. With that said, let’s now look at this family. Below is an abbreviated tree (created by Family Tree Makerii in April 2005) showing how the Hutchinson family fits into the overall family structure. Eleanor Georgina Hutchinson is the most-recent Hutchinson family member and much of her life is covered in the MATTHEWS family write-up. Copyright © 2005 Mosaic Research and Project Management. All Rights Reserved Started: 040705, Updated: 042405 Page 2 of 26 Hutchinson Family – Westmorland -> Glamorgan -> Devonshire JAMES (JR) HUTCHINSON & GEORGINA CURREY HAWKINS We will start our discussion with the family of James (Jr.) and Georgina Currey Hawkins. An overview is provided on page 5. Birth, Marriage & Death Eleanor Georgina Hutchinson was one of at least seven children born to James (Jr.) and Georgina. Our sources for the list of children are a monument found at St. Illytud church (Newcastle) and associated burialsiii, and various birth indices.

Fortunately, this family was easy to trace in the Census. It also provided clues and helped confirm the parentage of Georgina and correlated with birth and death information. In general, the census information is presented as Name, Relationship, Marital Status, Age, Occupation, Birth Place. Copyright © 2005 Mosaic Research and Project Management.

George James is living with his aunt, Frances Mary (or Fanny) Hawkins on Caroline Street in Bridgend. Eleanor is living with her uncle and his family including Eleanor’s grandmother at the South Wales Hotel in Swansea. Here are the details. 1871; Coity, Bridgend, Glamorgan, Walesxvii Caroline St. Fanny Hawkins, head, unmar, 33, Shop Assistant, Bristol Gloucestershire George James Hutchinson, nephew, 14, scholar, Bridgend Glamorganshire John Henry Aubry, Boarder, 5, scholar, Merthyn Glamorganshire 1871; Swansea, Glamorgan, Walesxviii 62 High Street, South Wales Hotel George Hawkins, head, married, 37, Licensed Victueller, Bristol Ann Hawkins, wife, Mar, 39, Glamorgan Bridgend Catherine Thomas, sister in law, unm 36, Assistant in Bar, Glamorgan Bridgend Frances Mary Hawkins, mother, widow, 68, school mistress, Bristol Eleanor Hutchinson, Niece, unm, 11, scholar, Glamorgan Bridgend And a servant, visitor and 2 boarders ..... For more on the Hawkins family including the Swansea locale and the South Wales Hotel, see the HAWKINS Family write-up. The next page is a map of Glamorganxix to give you a sense of the relationship between Bridgend and Swansea and some of the other locales that may be mentioned. The modern mapxx on the following page gives you an idea of where all these streets (Caroline St, Nolton St and Brackla Street (used as an approximation for the area called Bracka) are. They are concentrated in a small area of Bridgend which as we can see from the census were considered “Coity”. What’s interesting is that these streets wouldn’t be considered part of Coity today. The second map on the next page shows what in modern times is considered the relative location of Coity, Brackla and Newcastle (location of St. Illtud) … the center of Bridgend is pretty much where all the red roads convene! So, when researching these families, the locale names have to be put in the context of the time of the document. Copyright © 2005 Mosaic Research and Project Management.

  • Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough
    1 Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough Understanding canopy cover to better plan and manage our urban trees 2 Foreword Introducing a world-first for Wales is a great pleasure, particularly as it relates to greater knowledge about the hugely valuable woodland and tree resource in our towns and cities. We are the first country in the world to have undertaken a country-wide urban canopy cover survey. The resulting evidence base set out in this supplementary county specific study for Bridgend County Borough will help all of us - from community tree interest groups to urban planners and decision-makers in local Emyr Roberts Diane McCrea authorities and our national government - to understand what we need to do to safeguard this powerful and versatile natural asset. Trees are an essential component of our urban ecosystems, delivering a range of services to help sustain life, promote well-being, and support economic benefits. They make our towns and cities more attractive to live in - encouraging inward investment, improving the energy efficiency of buildings – as well as removing air borne pollutants and connecting people with nature. They can also mitigate the extremes of climate change, helping to reduce storm water run-off and the urban heat island. Natural Resources Wales is committed to working with colleagues in the Welsh Government and in public, third and private sector organisations throughout Wales, to build on this work and promote a strategic approach to managing our existing urban trees, and to planting more where they will

PURPOSE OF REPORT This report describes the work of Glamorgan Archives (GA) for the period 1 December – 29 February. 2. BACKGROUND As part of the agreed reporting process the Glamorgan Archivist updates the Joint Committee quarterly on the work and achievements of the service. Members are asked to note the content of this report. 3. ISSUES A. MANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES 1. Staff Maintain establishment This is the first full quarter with the reduced Access Team. Matthew Coleman’s hours have been extended to help fill the gap while establishment staff are also stepping in until a more stable solution is finalised. With a smaller Management Team and a professional team temporarily reduced by maternity leave it has made sense to combine meetings into a Management Circle. Continue skill sharing programme During the quarter 46 volunteers and work experience placements contributed 1283 hours to the work of the Office. Of these, 28 came from Cardiff, 9 from the Vale of Glamorgan, 6 from Bridgend, 2 from Rhondda Cynon Taf, and 1 from Caerphilly. Tours were provided 7 prospective volunteers and references for work supplied for 2 former volunteers. Students on work experience placements have given positive feedback. Work continues on a range of volunteer projects as outlined in the previous quarter. Volunteers have also started looking at Women’s Institute scrapbooks in more detail.
