Kingsdon Parish Council Are Looking for Any Villagers Who Would Like to Sponsor a Tree in the Village Issue No. 114 28th January 2017 Kingsdon Parish Council are looking for any villagers who would like to sponsor a tree in the village. The trees will be planted to replace the poplars which will be removed from Mow Barton Road and will be of a variety more suited to the environment. Sponsored trees could have a small plaque with the name of the sponsor or indeed in memory of a loved one. Alternatively you might like to make a donation towards the cost of one or more trees. Please contact the clerk on [email protected] or 01935 841275 as soon as possible so that the trees can be ordered before the growing season starts in the spring. It is with much sadness that the death is announced of Veronica Spender. Veronica passed away on Wednesday 25th January. Funeral arrangements will be announced in due course.

During the course of that event we learned about the progress made in the past two decades to provide clean drinking water, build a place of worship and an orphanage. The orphanage above, under construction in 2015, caters for 28 children, boys and girls and has accommodation for a housekeeper to look after the children. The orphanage also acts as a safe house for girls at risk early marriage and FGM. During the rainy season it also caters for many children from the area that are unable to travel home from school. It cost £44000 including fur- nishing, water and electricity from solar power.

    JOHN WESLEY AND THE RELIGIOUS SOCIETIES JOHN WESLEY AND THE RELIGIOUS SOCIETIES BY JOHN S. SIMON, D.D. AUTHOR OF * A SUMMARY OF METHODIST LAW AND DISCIPLINE,' * THE REVIVAL OF RELIGION IN ENGLAND IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY,' ETC. LONDON THE EPWORTH PRESS J. ALFRED SHARP First edition, 1921 PREFACE Canon Overton, in his Life in the English Church, 1660- ' 1714, says that there is no doubt that John Wesley intended his Societies to be an exact repetition of what was done by Beveridge, Horneck, and Smythies sixty-two years before.' ' He continues : How it was that the Methodist Societies took a different course is a very interesting, and, to a church- man, a very sad question.' In this book I have given descrip- tions of the first Rehgious Societies, and have shown their development under the influence of Dr. Woodward and John Wesley. From those descriptions my readers wiU be able to judge the accuracy of Canon Overton's statement concern- ing John Wesley's intentions. There can be no doubt, how- ' ' ever, that the relationship between the Religious Societies ' ' and the United Societies of the People called Methodists was so close that the latter cannot be understood without an intimate knowledge of the former. In writing this book, I have kept the Methodist Church in view. My eyes have been fixed on John Wesley and the England in which his greatest work was done. We can never understand the revival of religion which glorified the eighteenth century until we see Wesley as he wls, and get rid of the false impressions created by writers who have had an imperfect acquaintance with him and his evangelistic work.

In the present Volume are printed the Registers of seven Devonshire parishes, and the Editor hopes that now a series \ for Devonshire has been commenced all the Parish Registers ^ of the County may be included in it. ^^ In the neighbouring counties much progress has been V made in this direction in the last few years, and we may -^ anticipate equal interest will be taken in the work of pre- \\ serving—through the means of the Press—the ancient Parish Registers of this County. In Cornwall upwards of 85, and in Somerset 79 Marriage Registers have been printed, while in the Dorset series, much more recently commenced, 36 Registers have already been rendered available by publication, and it is hoped that not less rapid progress will be effected in Devonshire. 13791 G4 The contents of the present Volume show how needful it is that steps should be taken to print our Parish Registers and place them beyond risk of destruction. Of the seven parishes included, only that of Uffculme possesses a Register going back to the earliest period of 1538 ; five do not com- mence until the seventeenth century and one not till 1752.

  • BATH CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS, 1700-1835 Compiled by Trevor Fawcett
    BATH CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS, 1700-1835 Compiled by Trevor Fawcett Introduction The list below summarises the Council career of all 210 members who sat on Bath’s governing body at some point between 1700 and 1835 when the old Corporation was swept away by the Municipal Reform Act. A few names are familiar – Ralph Allen, John Palmer, and Eleazor Pickwick, for example – but many are relatively obscure even to Bath historians. The key source of information throughout has been the Council Minute Books held by Bath Record Office, but supplemented by data from local newspapers and directories, from church memorials, and from other sources including those cited at the end of individual entries in the list. The business of the Council and the duties of its members are outlined in Trevor Fawcett, Bath Administer’d: Corporation Affairs at the 18 th -Century Spa (Bath, 2001). This introduction provides additional detail. All through the period until 1794 the Corporation acted under the terms of its Elizabethan Charter, modified over the years by a series of local Acts of Parliament that conferred extra powers. A new Charter in 1794 made several small changes such as bringing a strip of Bathwick under Bath control for the first time and raising the permitted number of city magistrates from two to as many as nine. Otherwise the old Tudor arrangements still applied and left the city’s governance in the hands of a self-perpetuating oligarchy which looked ever more anachronistic in the light of Bath’s enormous Georgian expansion and a twelvefold increase in its population.

    Short Biographies for Contemporary Persons Appearing Recurrently in John Wesley’s Correspondence -prepared by Randy L. Maddox For the Wesley Works Editorial Project [updated: January 5, 2021] Note: Both maiden and married names are shown for women whenever known; their biography appears under the family name used earliest or most frequently in the correspondence. Abraham, Rev. John (fl. 1764–84) A native of the district of Fahan (just outside Londonderry), Abraham took his BA at Trinity College, Dublin in 1768, was ordained, and served as a curate in the Templemore parish of Londonderry and chaplain at the Chapel (of Ease) of the Immaculate Conception in Fahan. In 1776 he was converted under the influence of Rev. Edward Smyth, and joined Smyth for a while preaching in Dublin. In 1778, at JW’s request, Abraham left Ireland to assist at the new Chapel on City Road in London (see his only appearance in the Minutes that year, Works, 10:475). He proved physically and temperamentally unsuited to this role and returned to Ireland the following year. In 1782 he was again in London. The last JW knew of him, Abraham was confined in a hospital as ‘insane’. See J. B. Leslie, Derry Clergy and Parishes (Enniskillen: Ritchie, 1937), 291; Crookshank, Ireland, 1:276, 307, 397, 332; and JW to Alexander Knox, Dec. 20, 1778 & Feb. 7, 1784. Acourt, John (fl. 1740s) Acourt was an ardent Calvinist, whom JW believed was resolved to argue all the early Methodists into his Calvinist view, to set the societies in confusion by endless disputes, or to tell all the world that the Wesley brothers were ‘false prophets’.

  • English Book Owners in the Seventeenth Century a Work in Progress Listing
    English book owners in the seventeenth century A work in progress listing How much do we really know about patterns and impacts of book ownership in Britain in the seventeenth century? How well equipped are we to answer questions such as the following?: • What was a typical private library, in terms of size and content, in the seventeenth century? • How does the answer to that question vary according to occupation, social status, etc? • How does the answer vary over time? – how different are ownership patterns in the middle of the century from those of the beginning, and how different are they again at the end? Having sound answers to these questions will contribute significantly to our understanding of print culture and the history of the book more widely during this period. Our current state of knowledge is both imperfect, and fragmented. There is no directory or comprehensive reference source on seventeenth-century British book owners, although there are numerous studies of individual collectors. There are well-known names who are regularly cited in this context – Cotton, Dering, Pepys – and accepted wisdom as to collections which were particularly interesting or outstanding, but there is much in this area that deserves to be challenged. Private Libraries in Renaissance England and Books in Cambridge Inventories have developed a more comprehensive approach to a particular (academic) kind of owner, but they are largely focused on the sixteenth century. Sears Jayne, Library Catalogues of the English Renaissance , extends coverage to 1640, based on book lists found in a variety of manuscript sources. The Cambridge History of Libraries in Britain and Ireland (2006) contains much relevant information in this field, summarising existing scholarship, and references to this have been included in individual entries below where appropriate.
