  • U DDPA Papers of the Palmes Family of Naburn 13Th Cent
    Hull History Centre: Papers of the Palmes Family of Naburn U DDPA Papers of the Palmes Family of Naburn 13th cent. - 1906 Biographical Background: The Palmes family traced its pedigree back to Manfred Palmes who was living in 1140 and had lands in Taunton, Somerset. It is a family unique in being able to trace an unbroken inheritance from son to son from the twelfth century to 1974, with only one exception in the eighteenth century. In 1226 lands at Naburn in East Yorkshire were assigned to William Palmes by Richard de Watervill, the brother of Maud de Watervill, William Palmes's wife. The demesne lordship of Naburn then descended in the Palmes family to the twentieth century (Baines, Old Naburn, p. 45; Allison, History of York East Riding, iii, p. 77; Foster, Pedigrees, iii). Naburn is about three miles south of York and the Palmes family built a manor house on the east bank of the River Ouse. The house was first mentioned in 1345 and had eight hearths in 1672. A drawing of circa 1720 indicates a two storey house, three bays in length with attic windows in high gables. In other words, the family was comfortably-wealthy, although it was not until the early sixteenth century that any of the male members of the family held public office. William Palmes, who was living in the middle of the fifteenth century, married Ellen Rocliffe, whose father was one of the barons of the exchequer. She provided him with three male heirs and a daughter before taking the veil during his lifetime, in 1479.

Currently North Yorkshire has what is known as a ‘two tier system’. There are seven District Councils – Selby, Ryedale, Scarborough, Hambleton, Richmondshire, Craven and Harrogate – which deliver circa 80 services locally including housing, planning, council tax services, and bin collections; and a County Council which delivers circa 50 services including social care, children’s services, schools, highways, and libraries.

  • U DDPR Papers of the Preston Family of Moreby 1331 - 1992
    Hull History Centre: Papers of the Preston Family of Moreby U DDPR Papers of the Preston Family of Moreby 1331 - 1992 Biographical Background: The Preston family originated in Westmorland but were living in Holker by the seventeenth century. The second son of George Preston of Holker, Christopher Preston (b.1639) became a Leeds merchant. The family remained as merchants in Leeds through the rest of the seventeenth century and Christopher Preston's grandson, John Preston (d.1710) was an alderman and mayor of Leeds in 1692. Papers relating to the pew he purchased in Leeds church are in the collection. One of his daughters married Marmaduke Lawson (b.1685) of Moreby whose estates passed to the Preston family after he died without issue. The Preston family made good marriages in the early eighteenth century. William Preston (d.1772) married Ellen or Helen Farrer in 1721 and she brought a marriage portion of £600 and ultimately family estates as represented in the estate papers in the collection. His son, also William Preston (1723-1791), married Elizabeth Kilvington in 1756 and her marriage portion was £4000. When he inherited Moreby from Marmaduke Lawson he left Leeds to reside there. His brother, Henry Preston (1737-1808), stayed in Leeds and married Ann Fourness. Two of their sons died as young men in 1804 and their youngest son, also Henry Preston (1779-1837), married Maria Ann Crompton, ultimately succeeded to Moreby after the death of his uncle and became High Sheriff in 1834. His other uncle, Thomas Preston (1742- 1827) became vicar of Scalby and died childless, his estate passing then to Henry Preston's son, Thomas Henry Preston.

    ENVIRONMENT AGENCY NORTH EAST REGION RIVER QUALITY SURVEY GQA ASSESSMENT 1998 DALES AREA FRESHWATER RIVERS AND CANALS RIVER REACH CLASSIFICATION SUMMARY 1990-9 JULY 1999 E n v ir o n m e n t A g e n c y NATIONAL LIBRARY & INFORMATION SERVICE NORTH EAST REGION Tyneside House. Skinnerbum Road, Newcastle Business Park. Newcastle-Upon-Tyne NE4 7AR INTRODUCTION This document contains the derived General Quality Assessment (GQA) of the rivers in Dales Area for the year 1998. The grade is based on an amalgamation of three years data and thus reflects the river chemistry over the period 1996-8. The parameters used in the classification are Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Dissolved Oxygen (DO) and Ammonia and a monitoring frequency of at least monthly is preferred. The GQA results have been calculated by the National Centre for Environmental Data and Surveillance at Twerton. There have been some discrepancies between their database of sites and ours, always a problem when such huge blocks of information are transmitted backwards and forwards. This resulted in no GQA grade being calculated for some sites. Where this has occurred I have filled in the missing grade by calculating it locally. In such circumstances this is identified by the grade being represented in lower case. You will notice that this document is slightly different to those produced in previous years in that it does not contain any maps. There are a number of reasons for this but primarily it was decided to disseminate the tabular information rapidly after it’s return from the national centre out to the areas and produce a more in depth analysis of the information later on in the year.
