  • Stirlings of Ardoch and Grahams of Airth Family
    STIRLINGS OF ARDOCH AND GRAHAMS OF AIRTH FAMILY LETTERS: A PERSONAL VIEW OF THE VALUE OF KINSHIP Transcribed and Edited by Sarah Harrison 1 Introduction This book is about the search for the man in the photograph on a carte de visite taken in Exeter, date unknown. His name was Thomas Stirling and the little I knew about him came from a biography of his son, Waite Stirling, Bishop of the Falkland Islands1. The author, Frederick Macdonald, hinted at some reticence on Waite's part to reveal very much : “The story of his life, so far as he allowed it to be known...” but that his father, “Captain Thomas Stirling, belonged to the family of Sir Henry Stirling, created a Baronet in 1666...” From his granddaughter, Minnie's, Birthday Book I found that Thomas was born 6th October 1792, but that was all. One of the great joys of living in the age of the Internet is that it has become possible to do research without having to travel to archives or to spend weeks on fruitless hunches. Using online resources, I discovered from the 1851 census that Thomas was born in Jamaica . I traced the Stirling Baronetcy to that of Ardoch but could find no mention of any Thomas born in 1792. I had found that the Stirlings of Keir and Kippendavie had estates in St James Jamaica so searched for Thomas there. Then, by chance, I found the burial of Charles Stirling Esquire 18 January 1795 in St Catherine's Cathedral, Spanish Town. Through the Jamaican almanacs I traced him to Ardoch Penn in St Ann's.

When, at Carron Hall, in the first years of my widowhood, I began to look over the letters and papers I now put in print, you were all around me. Time has gone on, all are now scattered, the old home is for the present deserted. If in the homes you have made for yourselves in distant lands, these " Me- morials " help to keep warm in your hearts the memory of the good and brave from whom you are descended, my work will have fulfilled its purpose. I have endeavoured to link the present with the past; to trace the unbroken line from "Helias, son of Huctred," the first to bear the name, down to his latest descendant in your branch of the family tree. The materials at my command for the early history of the family are scanty. When the time comes for that portion of the family history to be written, the Charter-chests in the possession of Mr. Dundas of Dimdas must yield their treasures to vi INTRODUCTION the historian.

  • The East India Company at Home, 1757-1857 – UCL History
    The East India Company at Home, 1757-1857 – UCL History Accommodating the East: Sir Lawrence Dundas as Northern Nabob? The Dundas Property Empire and Nabob Taste By Helen Clifford Please note that this case study was first published on blogs.ucl.ac.uk/eicah in February 2013. For citation advice, visit: http://blogs.uc.ac.uk/eicah/usingthewebsite. Aske Hall, North Yorkshire, December 2012. Photography courtesy of Stuart Howat. Aims This case study began in 2010. On a visit to Aske Hall in North Yorkshire during the annual Open Heritage weekend, I noticed a range of ‘India goods’ in the house: lacquer screens, trunks studded with mother-of-pearl, and Chinese porcelain. They all appeared to date from the eighteenth-century but little seemed to be known about their provenance, and the owner encouraged research. This and the survival of a large family archive connected with Sir Lawrence Dundas (c.1710-81), who transformed Aske Hall into a grand country house in the 1760s and 1770s, prompted a series of questions. How did these goods get there, what did they mean to the owners of ‘Chinese’ Screen, painted and gilded leather, early the house, and how did they relate to the eighteenth century. Photography courtesy of Stuart Howat. more well known and researched interiors created at Aske in the 1760s? Did Sir Lawrence, familiarly known as ‘the Nabob of the North’, have some connection with the East India Company which could be connected with these ‘India’ objects that have survived to the present?1 1 The East India Company at Home, 1757-1857 – UCL History This case study shows how ascriptions ‘Nabob’ taste by contemporaries could be applied to people, places and possessions that appeared, on the surface at least, to have had little connection with the East India Company.

From a Photograph by MaitU & Fox. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES OF OFFICEES OF THE ROYAL (BENGAL) ENGINEERS ARKANGED AND COMPILED BY COL. SIR EDWARD T. THACKERAY, K.C.B., V.C. LONDON SMITH, ELDER, & CO., 15 WATERLOO PLACE 1900 [All rights reserved] INTEODUCTION At the close of the nineteenth century it seems very desirable that a more complete record than as yet exists should be compiled of the distinguished services of the Officers of the Eoyal (Bengal) Engineers—services which have extended over a period of nearly a century and a half, from 1756 to 1900. Biographical and other notices and memoirs relating to the services of the Officers of the Corps have from time to time been published, but these are dispersed in various books, journals, and other publications. It is with this object that, after consultation with some well- known Officers of the Corps, I have ventured with considerable diffidence to compile and arrange in this volume the biographical notices of thirty-four distinguished officers, many of whom, as Lord Napier of Magdala, Sir Henry Durand, Sir John Cheaps, and others, attained to the highest positions as soldiers, administrators, or men of science, and whose services in India and other countries are fully known and appreciated. It was at first proposed to include in this volume the names of several distinguished officers now living, among whom might be mentioned Generals Sir Eichard Strachey, G.C.S.I., and Sir Alexander Taylor, G.C.B., and the Colonels-Commandant of the Corps ; but it was found that the book would have assumed too large proportions, and it seemed best to restrict this volume to notices of the services of deceased officers only.
