  • U DDBA Papers of the Barnards Family 1401-1945 of South Cave
    Hull History Centre: Papers of the Barnards Family of South Cave U DDBA Papers of the Barnards Family 1401-1945 of South Cave Historical background: The papers relate to the branch of the family headed by Leuyns Boldero Barnard who began building up a landed estate centred on South Cave in the mid-eighteenth century. His inherited ancestry can be traced back to William and Elizabeth Barnard in the late sixteenth century. Their son, William Barnard, became mayor of Hull and died in 1614. Of his seven sons, two of them also served time as mayor of Hull, including the sixth son, Henry Barnard (d.1661), through whose direct descendants Leuyns Boldero Barnard was eventually destined to succeed. Henry Barnard, married Frances Spurrier and together had a son and a daughter. His daughter, Frances, married William Thompson MP of Humbleton and his son, Edward Barnard, who lived at North Dalton, was recorder of Hull and Beverley from the early 1660s until 1686 when he died. He and his wife Margaret, who was also from the Thompson family, had at least seven children, the eldest of whom, Edward Barnard (d.1714), had five children some of whom died without issue and some had only female heirs. The second son, William Barnard (d.1718) married Mary Perrot, the daughter of a York alderman, but had no children. The third son, Henry Barnard (will at U DDBA/14/3), married Eleanor Lowther, but he also died, in 1769 at the age of 94, without issue. From the death of Henry Barnard in 1769 the family inheritance moved laterally.

  • The Diocese of York the Deanery of South Wold Deanery Plan 2012
    The Diocese of York The Deanery of South Wold ‘A network of churches serving Rural communities’ Deanery Plan 2012 1 Mission Statement: The South Wold Deanery exists to provide a network of mutual support for churches • by encouraging one another in worship • by seeking God's will for our communities • by linking congregations to each other and to the wider church • by the sharing of gifts and resources The South Wold Deanery Synod aims to provide a bridge between the Diocese and Parish, and to be a space where all can be heard and valued and feel part of a greater whole. Deanery Prayer: We give thanks for the life and witness of all the churches in our Deanery, and pray that through the process of formulating a new Deanery Plan, God will give us fresh vision and energy to support one another, to share resources and to build bridges within our communities. Methodology: Whilst the Deanery Plan has been ‘top down’ in terms of the planned loss of stipendary posts, it was felt essential to allow the voice of each church to be heard. Each congregation or PCC was asked to respond individually to the paper ‘Changing Expectations’ and the accompanying discussion document. The result of this approach has been very positive. Most have attempted to grapple with the issue of ageing demography and increased ministerial work‐ load. Various different approaches have been suggested, which we have tried to reflect in the Action Plan. Two benefices (Garrowby Hill and Holme on Spalding Moor) have chosen to speak collectively; all the rest have responded individually.

  • A Brief History of All Saints' Church, Brantingham
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF ALL SAINTS’ CHURCH, BRANTINGHAM This history was originally compiled by Mr David Brachi c. 1965 and revised by Dr David Bagchi in 2014, with additions by the Revd Mick Fryer, Mrs Linda Salmon and Mr Alan Berriman. THE VILLAGE AND PARISH Brantingham (originally ‘Bretinha’) lies on the western edge of the southern Yorkshire Wolds, in a sheltered spot where natural springs provide a supply of fresh, clean water. It is an obvious place for a village to grow up, though the Anglo-Saxon suffix ‘- ingham’ suggests that it was settled only during the Saxon colonisation of England after the departure of the Romans, who left evidence of their habitation nearby. The neighbouring community of Brantingham Thorpe would have been settled later, during the period of Scandinavian colonisation, the word ‘thorpe’ deriving from the Danish ‘trup’ (‘village’), which was often used to identify a new settlement related to an existing one: the form ‘Thorpe *of+ Brantingham’, found in some older sources, illustrates this well. Brantingham is therefore one of a string of Saxon settlements established round the edge of the Wolds, extending from Welton and Elloughton (which also had a ‘thorpe’ associated with it) in the south, to Sancton (where there was a Saxon cemetery) and Market Weighton, and northwards. The Durham connection There is no record of the coming of Christianity to Brantingham, but the Domesday survey of 1086 recorded the bishop of Durham as having land under cultivation in the parish (Hall, 194). And so began an unusual association between this typical Yorkshire village and the County Palatine which continues to the present day.
