Records of the Australian immigrant board show that Robert Sutcliffe of Pendleton, son of Isaac and Alice, arrived in New South Wales aboard the vessel St. Vincent on 13 March 1849. He had taken advantage of the available ‘assisted passage’ scheme, which was offered at that time to workers such as blacksmiths, so that his voyage ‘only’ cost him five pounds. The record states that he enjoyed good bodily health and required no medical assistance during the long voyage. Between 1855 and 1873 he can be found on electoral rolls and in Wise’s Trade Directory as an inhabitant of Wellington, New Zealand, residing in Dickson Street and Willis Street. So far no records have been discovered which show marriage, the birth of children or even his death there. ACCRINGTON William moved to Accrington, where he married Mary Hacking in St. James, Accrington on 8 September, 1849. His brother, James, followed suit in 1851 by marrying Hannah Burton on 22 March in Newchurch in Rossendale. At this time, according to the census of 1851, his occupation was as a wheelwright and his wife was a woollen power loom weaver. Their son, James Isaac, was born on 2 September 1851 and baptised in Newchurch on 5 October 1851. William and Mary’s only son, Isaac, was born on 9 July 1850 at Plantation Mill Street, Accrington. The 1851 census shows this address to be the domicile of Mary Hacking’s family and that William was now a labourer at the print 4 works. By 1857 William had slightly changed the terms of his occupation, still a labourer but at the brewery in Burnley Road, Accrington. 1857 was a tragic year for both William and his brother James being the year in which both their wives died. William married again on 4 September 1858 to Betty Riley and the 1861 census reveals a family reunited with William and his new wife, Betty, their son, Isaac, and James and his son, James Isaac, all residing at 182 Burnley Road, Accrington. William was still by occupation a labourer and James a wheelwright.

General information Preston is a city in the shire county of Lancashire, in the North West of England in the sovereign state of the United Kingdom. It’s “located on the north bank of the River Ribble.” (picture 1) 114,300 people live there (ONS, June 2008).1 With 142.22km² it’s about 65km² smaller than Stuttgart. 2 “… The name Preston is derived from Old English words meaning “Priest settlement” and in the Domesday Book appears as Prestune.” 3 The Domesday Book was completed in 1086 and it’s a collection of the great survey of England and Wales. 4 2. Pre-industrial era (shortly before the IR) The plague in November 1631 killed 1100 people in Preston in 12 month. The civil war from 1630 to 1650 and the Battle of Preston in 1648 have been very bad for the town, too. 5 The Jacobite Battle in November 1715 describes the battle, when the troops of King George defeated a Jacobite Army of 2,000 soldiers in the Church Street of Preston.

  • The Inventory of Historic Battlefields – Battle of Prestonpans Designation
    The Inventory of Historic Battlefields – Battle of Prestonpans The Inventory of Historic Battlefields is a list of nationally important battlefields in Scotland. A battlefield is of national importance if it makes a contribution to the understanding of the archaeology and history of the nation as a whole, or has the potential to do so, or holds a particularly significant place in the national consciousness. For a battlefield to be included in the Inventory, it must be considered to be of national importance either for its association with key historical events or figures; or for the physical remains and/or archaeological potential it contains; or for its landscape context. In addition, it must be possible to define the site on a modern map with a reasonable degree of accuracy. The aim of the Inventory is to raise awareness of the significance of these nationally important battlefield sites and to assist in their protection and management for the future. Inventory battlefields are a material consideration in the planning process. The Inventory is also a major resource for enhancing the understanding, appreciation and enjoyment of historic battlefields, for promoting education and stimulating further research, and for developing their potential as attractions for visitors. Designation Record and Full Report Contents Name - Context Alternative Name(s) Battlefield Landscape Date of Battle - Location Local Authority - Terrain NGR Centred - Condition Date of Addition to Inventory Archaeological and Physical Date of Last Update Remains and Potential
