  • New Men of Wealth and the Purchase of Land in Great Britain and Ireland, 1780 to 1879*
    New men of wealth and the purchase of land in Great Britain and Ireland, 1780 to 1879* new men of wealth by David Brown Abstract Of all the indicators of the integration of the bourgeoisie class and the aristocracy, the most important was the purchase of a residence and a landed estate by ‘new men of wealth’. In new research, 2566 new men of wealth have been identified who purchased estates of over 1000 acres and a rental of £1000 in Great Britain and Ireland between 1780 and 1879. Of those, 1439 purchased estates of over 2000 acres in extent and £2000 in rental, which represents an estimated turnover of over 38 per cent over the century. Although there is no consensus about what level of upward mobility is required for an elite to be ‘open’, these figures demonstrates that there were sufficient purchasers to sustain the contemporary belief that Britain’s elite was indeed open. The relationship between plutocratic and aristocratic elites in the century of the classic Industrial Revolution has been a topic of great interest to historians. For example, Avner Offer has explored the development of the ideology of a ‘free trade in land’ to break the aristocratic dominance achieved through the use of strict settlement. R. J. Morris has considered the strategies adopted by middle-class families to succeed in a period where landed wealth still dominated.1 The most divisive, and arguably the key issue about this relationship, arising from the Marxist model of conflict between the rising bourgeois elite and the declining aristocratic elite, has been the tendency of ‘new wealth’ to join the ranks of landowners.

It leaves my life still to be written, should it be deemed worth the writing. It leaves, in fact, the first thirty years after my birth almost a blank. My residence in New South Wales has extended over fifty-three years; I began, in association with others, to take an earnest interest in the affairs of the colony within two or three years after my arrival. My first acquaintances were Charles Harper, William Augustine Duncan, and Henry Halloran, the latter of whom, now a hale man of eighty-two years, is still my warm personal friend, whose high generous spirit and fine gifts of mind have contributed much to my enjoyment of life. Some years before the advent of Responsible Government I was drawn into the active politics of the country; and of all the men who laboured conspicuously in public in preparing the way for the new Era, I now stand alone.

The population of the county was then 608,716 so that there was one medic to every 2,222 residents. An alphabetical register has been compiled3 in which an account4 is given of the life and career of each medic with appropriate references. Each entry includes material on his birth, parentage, education and career, marriage and immediate family, and death. This survey is based on those entries. A very few of the cohort, or their immediate family, became famous or infamous in national life and are thus mentioned in the Online Dictionary of National Biography.

  • Governance and Locality in the Age of Reform: Birmingham, 1769-1852
    GOVERNANCE AND LOCALITY IN THE AGE OF REFORM: BIRMINGHAM, 1769-1852 by DONNA TAYLOR A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2017 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation.

Abstract: This thesis examines the development of Birmingham’s local administration from the late eighteenth to the mid-nineteenth century, a period of intense reform policy in Britain. It presents an in-depth appraisal of processes that promulgated administrative change during a crucial period of the town’s development. There has been a tendency in current literature to present Birmingham in this period as a badly managed town, governed by disparate, self-elected bodies. The research presented here challenges that perspective through a close analysis of Birmingham’s administrations both pre-and post- the 1835 Municipal Reform Act. Under this legislation Birmingham was able to attain a Charter of Incorporation, with its first town council elected in 1838. The move to corporation status was badly managed, at a national and local level.
