  • Howard J. Garber Letter Collection This Collection Was the Gift of Howard J
    Howard J. Garber Letter Collection This collection was the gift of Howard J. Garber to Case Western Reserve University from 1979 to 1993. Dr. Howard Garber, who donated the materials in the Howard J. Garber Manuscript Collection, is a former Clevelander and alumnus of Case Western Reserve University. Between 1979 and 1993, Dr. Garber donated over 2,000 autograph letters, documents and books to the Department of Special Collections. Dr. Garber's interest in history, particularly British royalty led to his affinity for collecting manuscripts. The collection focuses primarily on political, historical and literary figures in Great Britain and includes signatures of all the Prime Ministers and First Lords of the Treasury. Many interesting items can be found in the collection, including letters from Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Robert Browning Thomas Hardy, Queen Victoria, Prince Albert, King George III, and Virginia Woolf. Descriptions of the Garber Collection books containing autographs and tipped-in letters can be found in the online catalog.

  • Love Letters Between Lady Susan Hay and Lord James Ramsay 1835
    LOVE LETTERS BETWEEN LADY SUSAN HAY AND LORD JAMES RAMSAY 1835 Edited by Elizabeth Olson with an introduction by Fran Woodrow in association with The John Gray Centre, Haddington I II Contents Acknowledgements iv Editing v Maps vi Family Trees viii Illustrations xvi Introduction xxx Letters 1 Appendix 102 Further Reading 103 III Acknowledgements he editor and the EERC are grateful to East Lothian Council Archives Tand Ludovic Broun-Lindsay for permission to reproduce copies of the correspondence. Thanks are due in particular to Fran Woodrow of the John Gray Centre not only for providing the editor with electronic copies of the original letters and generously supplying transcriptions she had previously made of some of them, but also for writing the introduction. IV Editing he letters have been presented in a standardised format. Headers provide Tthe name of the sender and of the recipient, and a number by which each letter can be identified. The salutations and valedictions have been reproduced as they appear in the originals, but the dates when the letters were sent have been standardised and placed immediately after the headers. Due to the time it took for letters from England to reach Scotland, Lord James Ramsay had already sent Lady Susan Hay three before she joined the correspondence. This time lapse, and the fact that thereafter they started writing to each other on a more or less daily basis, makes it impossible to arrange the letters sensibly in order of reply. They have instead been arranged chronologically, with the number of the reply (where it can be identified) added to the notes appended to each letter.

  • Kit-Cat Related Poetry
    ‘IN AND OUT’: AN ANALYSIS OF KIT-CAT CLUB MEMBERSHIP (Web Appendix to The Kit-Cat Club by Ophelia Field, 2008) There are four main primary sources with regard to the membership of the Kit-Cat Club – Abel Boyer’s 1722 list,1 John Oldmixon’s 1735 list,2 a Club subscription list dated 1702,3 and finally the portraits painted by Sir Godfrey Kneller between 1697 and 1721 (as well as the 1735 Faber engravings of these paintings). None of the sources agree. Indeed, only the membership of four men (Dr Garth, Lord Cornwallis, Spencer Compton and Abraham Stanyan) is confirmed by all four of these sources. John Macky, a Whig journalist and spy, was the first source for the statement that the Club could have no more than thirty-nine members at any one time,4 and Malone and Spence followed suit.5 It is highly unlikely that there were so many members at the Kit-Cat’s inception, however, and membership probably expanded with changes of venue, especially around 1702–3. By 1712–14, all surviving manuscript lists of toasted ladies total thirty-nine, suggesting that there was one lady toasted by each member and therefore that Macky was correct.6 The rough correlation between the dates of expulsions/deaths and the dates of new admissions (such as the expulsion of Prior followed by the admission of Steele in 1705) also supports the hypothesis that at some stage a cap was set on the size of the Club. Allowing that all members were not concurrent, most sources estimate between forty- six and fifty-five members during the Club’s total period of activity.7 There are forty- four Kit-Cat paintings, but Oldmixon, who got his information primarily from his friend Arthur Maynwaring, lists forty-six members.

  • The Saunderson Family of Little Addington [Microform] / Edited by W.D. Sweeting
    cs • Sis VA THE lamfrmum Hamilg *{pF |aITTLE Reprinted from Itorijjampionsjjir* Stoics # <$iums, Parts iv. and Ti., 1884-85. EDITED BY THE REV. W. D. SWEETING, M.A., VICAR OF MAXEY, MARKET DEEPING. faortfjamptont The Drtdbn Prbss: TAYLOR & SON, 9 Collsgb Street. 1887. of Little Addington. 'THIS ancient Northamptonshire family, seated for / over three centuries at Little Addington Mansion and at Moulton Manor House, disappeared from the county at the death of Thomas Saunderson, vicar of Little Addington, in 1855. It seems within the special province of "N.N.&Q." to put on record some account of a family so long settled within the county. The Northamptonshire branch is one of several ancient lines descended from Robert de Bedic, of Bedic, co. Durham, livingin the nth century, whose descendant in the sixth generation, Alexander de Bedjc, living in 1333, was the last to retain the territorial description, as his son was the first to use the patronymic^ by which the family has since been known, of Sanderson,, or Saunderson, i.e., son of Alexander. Itis a collateral branch of the Saundersons, viscounts Castleton, and of the family of the great bishop of Lincoln,Robert Saunderson :it has also, by later inter-marriages, been reconnected with both these lines. 4 The best— known branches of the family are five in number : (a) that of Hedleyhope, and Brancepeth, co. Durham j(b) that of Saxby, co. Lincoln j(c) that of Blyth and Serlby, co. Notts.; (d) that of Little Addington and Moulton, co. Northants ;and {c) thac of Coombe, co. Kent.

    Manor Farm Spaldwick A Background and Short History by Stuart Dixon September 2014 was an decisive time in the history of the Manor Farm house. Having been an important building on the High Street in Spaldwic since it was built in the 16th century it was rescued from decay and dilapidation for restoration. It had stood empty for many years since the last occupant died in 2005 and was in a sad and sorry state. To the delight of all the villagers it was bought by a professional restorer, Richard Johnson, whose enthusiasm for the pro(ect was matched inversely by those amateur diy-er*s who saw the amount of wor required, This short boo let attempts to put some history and colour on an important village landmar - there will be those who are more nowledgeable and I as for leniency where errors are found. .s usual I have probably rambled on and gone off at a tangent and there are still many gaps to be filled- consider this a first draft. Stuart Di0on January 2015 CONTENTS Introduction 4 Montagues 6 1opyhold Tenants 12 The 2arnards and 3ady Olivia Sparrow 13 The Ferrymans 16 INTRODUCTION The date of the building of the original Manor Farmhouse has yet to be determined e0actly. It was once thought to have been built about 1628 when the Earl, now Du e, of Manchester became 3ord of the Manor, but is probably older. In a 1826 Inventory of Huntingdon it is described as 9late 16th century: but recent e0amination of some of the timbers and structure show that it could be early 16th century.

  • The Montagus and the Great West Doors of Bath Abbey” Online
    The Manor of Lackham Vol 3 : The Montagu family The Manor of Lackham – Volume 3 The Montagus of Lackham and their historical connections by Tony Pratt and Karen Repko Last update : March 23, 2019 Wiltshire College Lackham 2010 1 The Manor of Lackham Vol 3 : The Montagu family This investigation of the history of the manor of Lackham, close to Chippenham and next to Lacock in Wiltshire, started with the current author’s “The Bluets ; a baronial family and their historical connections 1066- 1400 1” and was continued in “The Baynards : a county family and their historical connections 1360 – 1650 2.” This work takes the story through the period of the Civil War and the Enlightenment to Canal Mania and on into the early part of the nineteenth century. For biographies of the authors see the Introduction to Vol. 1 “The Bluets”. Both of the previous volumes in this history, and others, are held by Wiltshire Libraries, the Wiltshire & Swindon History Centre in Chippenham and online at http://www.lackham.co.uk/history/documents.asp As always we owe enormous debts of gratitude to the people who helped by their willingness to give freely of their time, expertise and knowledge, and without whom this volume would not have been possible. Individual credits and thanks are given in the footnotes. Not credited specifically are the archivists and staff at all the record offices and libraries consulted and who were unfailingly helpful above and beyond that which might be expected. We are very lucky to have such dedicated and knowledgeable people around and we would express our very sincere gratitude to everyone who helped.

  • Sketchbook 44 Introduction
    Introduction to SSB 44 (13 October 1856–13 January 1857) by Philip Cottrell NB. All page references are to SSB 44 and catalogue numbers refer to items from the Art Treasures Exhibition’s Gallery of Ancient Masters unless otherwise specified. At the very start of SSB 44 there are a few isolated notes on a lunar eclipse that Scharf observed at a quarter-to-midnight on Monday 13 October on exiting Euston Station, London (p. 1; other entries scattered across Scharf’s sketchbooks and diaries reveal that stargazing was something of a minor hobby). He had returned briefly from Manchester to visit his mother and aunt at the new house they now shared at Eastcott Place, Camden Town, before embarking for Earl Spencer’s collection at Althorp on the following Wednesday (and then on to a series of other collectors – see the introduction to SSB 43). Apart from these initial notes, SSB 44 is almost wholly devoted to Scharf’s survey of British art collections, encompassing twenty-five further appointments across twenty-two lenders over a three- month period between 26 October 1856 to 13 January 1857. Disregarding numerous works which were not selected by Scharf, around one-hundred-and-seventy Art Treasures items are represented, of which one-hundred-and-twenty-seven were Ancient Masters. There is a major chronological overlap with regard to the subsequent sketchbook, SSB 45, which Scharf began using intermittently from early November, and then regularly from mid- January to mid-February 1857. 3.i. October-November 1856: lenders in London and the Midlands Most of the material in the opening pages of SSB 44 covers Scharf’s two-day visit to Knowsley Hall, near Liverpool, the seat of Edward Geoffrey Smith-Stanley, 14th Earl of Derby (1799-1869), which began on Sunday 26 October (pp.
