Ibowe Beinrose, Ikt., ®.H)., THE PATRON OF DERBYSHIRE LITERATURE, THIS REGISTER OF DERBY SCHOOL IS MOST RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED, AS A SLIGHT ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF HIS GENIAL ENCOURAGEMENT AND INVALUABLE ASSISTANCE DURING ITS COMPILATION. ^ PREFACE. ,__ NO work is more suited to perpetuate the fame and traditions of an ancient scliool, and to foster the spirit of brother- hood among the succeeding generations of its alumni, than a Register recording the proud distinctions or the humble achievements of those who have had the honour of belonging to it. To do this, effectually a register ought to be complete in all its parts, from the first clay the school opened its doors ; and it is evident that such a work could only be the result of a continuous purpose, coeval with the school itself. Unfortunately that task has been deferred from century to century, and has become harder in proportion to its long post- ponement. But is this a. reason why it should not at length be attempted? As the usefulness, or, to speak more correctly, the necessity of such an undertaking has in these latter times become more and more apparent at Derby School, and as procrastination only makes matters worse, the editor decided some years ago to face the difficulty and see what could be done. Now, considering that prior to 1865, and with the exception of a bare list of the names of the pupils between 1843 and 1858, there was nO' register of any kind kept at the School, it looked like a hopeless task. However, one by one, a fairly complete list of the scholars under Dr. Fletcher (1834-1843) and Dr. Leary (i 858-1 865) was got together with the valuable assistance of several old Derbeians, some of whom, we regret to say, have since joined the ma.jority. As for the more remote period (i 570-1 834), it has been necessary to go further afield. All available sources have been drawn upon : College admission registers (both of Oxford and Cambridge), biographical notices, pedigrees, memoirs, town records, etc., have all been laid under contribution and have yielded a tolerably abundant harvest, Avhich has been still furtlaer enriched by personal information from various county gentlemen respecting some of their ancestors. Nor have the names been forgotten that arc carved on the walls and panels of the old Grammar School in S. Peter's Church- yard, many of which had to be recovered from under accumulated layers of paint and whitewash. In this way several hundreds of old Derbeians have been rescued from the oblivion into which they had drifted ; but how many hundreds more are there who have not been reclaimed ? It is to be hoped that future researches and discoveries will add to their list. In the meantime, if the object of this Register, frag- mentary as it is, has been reached—namely, tO' perpetuate the memory of the dead, and impress upon the living Derbeians the fact that, wherever they may be, theii- old School is not indifferent to> their acta et gesta—this will be the most acceptable reward which the- editor could desire for the trouble this work has entailed upon him. There will necessarily be inaccuracies and omissions in these records ; all corrections and additions will, therefore, be gratefully received in view of making a second edition as complete as possible. Lastly, the editor begs to return his most cordial acknowledg- ments to the late J. Tilley, Esq., Author of " The Old Halls, Manors, and Families of Derbyshire " ; J. B. Peace, Esq., M.A., Bursar of Emmanuel College, Cambridge; R. F. Scott, Esq., M.A., Senior Bursar of St. John's College, Cambridge ; Prof. J.

Do please have a look through the newsletter at the things that have happened and that are going on. We always welcome news and updates, so please keep sending them to Debbie at [email protected] who you can also email to subscribe to this newsletter if you don’t already (or unsubscribe if you want to). Our new Bishop of Derby, Rt Rev Libby Lane, is also preparing to fully take up her post. She will be installed at Derby Cathedral on Saturday 25th at 2.30pm. Everyone is very welcome to attend. Bishop Libby is then planning to visit each of the Deaneries, to meet a wide range of people and to pray with them. She will be visiting Mercia Deanery on Wednesday 5th June, as part of which she will be speaking at our Deanery Thy Kingdom Come service, which will be hosted by St Mark’s Winshill starting at 7:45pm. Again, everyone is very welcome. At our recent Deanery Synod meeting, we thought about the Church of England’s programme of change, Setting God’s People Free. This is designed to “enable the whole people of God to live out the Good News of Jesus confidently in all of life, Sunday to Saturday.” There is more information and some practical tips at https:// www.churchofengland.org/SGPF In the light of this, we examined our Deanery priorities, which we agreed should be: 1.

  • The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575
    The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575 Elizabeth Murray A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts United Faculty of Theology The Melbourne College of Divinity October, 2007 Abstract Most English Reformation studies have been about the far north or the wealthier south-east. The poorer areas of the midlands and west have been largely passed over as less well-documented and thus less interesting. This thesis studying the north of the county of Shropshire demonstrates that the generally accepted model of the change from Roman Catholic to English Reformed worship does not adequately describe the experience of parishioners in that county. Acknowledgements I am grateful to Dr Craig D’Alton for his constant support and guidance as my supervisor. Thanks to Dr Dolly Mackinnon for introducing me to historical soundscapes with enthusiasm. Thanks also to the members of the Medieval Early Modern History Cohort for acting as a sounding board for ideas and for their assistance in transcribing the manuscripts in palaeography workshops. I wish to acknowledge the valuable assistance of various Shropshire and Staffordshire clergy, the staff of the Lichfield Heritage Centre and Lichfield Cathedral for permission to photograph churches and church plate. Thanks also to the Victoria & Albert Museum for access to their textiles collection. The staff at the Shropshire Archives, Shrewsbury were very helpful, as were the staff of the State Library of Victoria who retrieved all the volumes of the Transactions of the Shropshire Archaeological Society. I very much appreciate the ongoing support and love of my family.

  • Deanery News February 2019 Your Bi-Monthly Newsletter
    Deanery News February 2019 Your Bi-monthly Newsletter Dear All, It has been encouraging to read about some of the many things that our Deanery churches have been up to over Christmas and into the New Year. Do please have a look, and see if there is anything that inspires you for next Christmas! A great way to start this year was with the licensing by the Archdeacon of Derby of Rev Charles Jefferson to be Interim Minister of the parishes of the Seales benefice and the Trent United group of parishes. Charles is working with the nine parishes for the next couple of years to help them discern how best they can sustain the mission and ministry of the Church in the area, so that they can flourish. It has been great to welcome Charles and do please remember him in your prayers. It was also very encouraging to be able to help represent the Deanery at the presentation of Bishop Libby to the diocese. The Area Deans, along with the Archdeacons, the Director of Mission and Ministry, and Bishop Jan have been working hard to give Bishop Libby a clear picture of the diocese so that she is able to quickly make a start on setting the future direction of the diocese. Do please pray for her and her family as they prepare for the move to Derbyshire. There are a great many training opportunities that are available in the next few months, so do please have a look as there may very well be something that will help support you in your role, or that you might be interested in.

This paper tries to rectify this by offering a case study of one hospital, the Derbyshire General Infirmary (1810), where, principally under the inspiration of the cotton manufacturer, William Strutt FRS (1756-1830), a deliberate attempt was made to incorporate into a medical institution the latest "fireproof' building techniques with technology developed for * Paul Elliott, School of Geography, University of medicine in Manchester, 1788-1792: hospital Nottingham, University Park, Nottingham, NG7 reform and public health services in the early 2RD. industrial city', Med.

  • The Shropshire Enlightenment: a Regional Study of Intellectual Activity in the Late Eighteenth and Early Nineteenth Centuries
    The Shropshire Enlightenment: a regional study of intellectual activity in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries by Roger Neil Bruton 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 January 2015 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. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The focus of this study is centred upon intellectual activity in the period from 1750 to c1840 in Shropshire, an area that for a time was synonymous with change and innovation. It examines the importance of personal development and the influence of intellectual communities and networks in the acquisition and dissemination of knowledge. It adds to understanding of how individuals and communities reflected Enlightenment aspirations or carried the mantle of ‘improvement’ and thereby contributes to the debate on the establishment of regional Enlightenment. The acquisition of philosophical knowledge merged into the cultural ethos of the period and its utilitarian characteristics were to influence the onset of Industrial Revolution but Shropshire was essentially a rural location.
