Oral Evidence, Memoirs, Letters and Diaries Unless you are fortunate enough to trace a tape recording of an emigrant, oral evidence for th C19 emigrations will be hearsay. Memoirs, letters and diaries are often in private hands but more and more transcriptions are appearing on-line. It is worth trying to trace the descendants of an emigrant to see what information they have. Postcards and Photographs Again these are often in private hands but you may find pictures in newspapers. Historic photographs of emigrants’ destinations can often be found on-line [Google the place name and decade e.g. Port Hope 1860s in Google Images]. It is also possible to source these from books, although this is more time-consuming. Beware of copyright issues if you ‘publish’ photographs that you have found in this way. This includes use in journal articles or on websites. Newspapers Many newspapers are now indexed on-line.

It should be noted however, that the connection with the GRENVILLE family has at present only been suggested in terms of Nos. 1, 2 and 3 Bridge Street. I am indebted to Andy Powell for locating many of the reference sources referred to below, and in providing valuable historical assistance to progress this research to its conclusions. In the main Statement of Significance Report, the history of the buildings was researched as far as possible in an attempt to assess their Heritage Value, with a view to the owners making a decision on the future of these historic Bideford properties.

  • Unravelling Devon Involvement in Slave-Ownership Lucy
    Unravelling Devon involvement in Slave-Ownership Lucy MacKeith ‘The early history of the United States of America owes more to Devon than to any other English county.’ Charles Owen (ed.), The Devon-American Story (1980) My task this afternoon is to unravel Devon’s involvement in slave-ownership. I have found the task overwhelming because of constantly finding new information – there are leads to follow down little branches of family trees, there are Devon’s country houses, a wealth of documents, and – of course – the internet. So this is a VERY brief introduction to unravelling Devon’s involvement with slave- ownership – much has been left out. Let’s start with Elias Ball. His story is in Slaves in the Family, written by descendant Edward Ball and published in 1998. Elias Ball by Jeremiah Theus (1716-1774). ‘Elias Ball, ...was born in 1676 in a tiny hamlet in western England called Stokeinteignhead. He inherited a plantation in Carolina at the end of the seventeenth century ...His life shows how one family entered the slave business in the birth hours of America. It is a tale composed equally of chance, choice and blood.’ The book has many Devon links – an enslaved woman called Jenny Buller reminds us of Redvers Buller’s family, a hill in one of the Ball plantations called ‘Hallidon Hill’ reminds us of Haldon Hill just outside Exeter; two family members return to England, one after the American War of Independence. This was Colonel Wambaw Elias Ball who had been involved in trading in enslaved Africans in Carolina. He was paid £12,700 sterling from the British Treasury and a lifetime pension in compensation for the slaves he had lost in the war of independence.
