Old Stories of the New World OLD STORIES OF THE NEW WORLD The people that crossed the Atlantic in search of new beginnings. STORIES OF MIGRATION PLACES, PEOPLE AND VOYAGES COMMEMORATION AND ANNIVERSARY TOURS FIT AND GROUP TOURS Discover the stories of migration between England and America – including The Great Migration – when twenty thousand men, women and children crossed the Atlantic in search of new freedoms in the new world. There’s nothing like a quest to stir the soul and fire the imagination. It’s the sense of anticipation only a voyage of adventure can bring. History is rich in tales of human courage. Never more so than the stories of the ‘ordinary’ individuals who risked all they knew – all they loved – in the hope of founding a new life in a distant land. Whether fleeing religious persecution, starvation or seeking employment and opportunities, their reasons are many and varied. Yet they’re united across the ages, by a single thread - hope. From the struggles of the Jamestown explorers, the plight of Cornish tin miners to the midnight tragedy of SS Titanic or the bright hopes of young GI brides in WWII, few adventures are so rich in love, loss and a legacy that connects us all. So begins a decade of historic connections. The ‘Great Migration Period’ - uniting the USA and England. 2019 marks the 400th anniversary of Jamestown; 2020 the 400th anniversary of Mayflower’s journey from Plymouth, England; and 2030 - the 400th anniversary of the mass departure from Boston, England - inspired by Rev John Cotton. Millions of Americans can take this opportunity to explore and experience their ancestral roots. Take a trip back in time: see the same skies, breath the same air; watch the same seas as those intrepid forebears. And, maybe connect with your own kin. Learn about the English villages, towns and lives your ancestors left behind. Discover your own heritage. Explore the complex history of England and the myriad peoples who shaped this proud island nation, before embarking on adventures that changed our shared history forever. 2 | Old Stories of The New World | Tour England Tour England | Old Stories of The New World | 3 HAMPSHIRE GETTING HERE ACCOMMODATION TOURS AND TOUR GUIDES Rail journeys from London Waterloo station to Southampton take 1hour 20 mins; and 1 hour 30 mins to Portsmouth.

  • Definition of Chalk
    1.1: Introduction: 1.1.1: Definition of chalk: Chalk is a soft, white, porous sedimentary carbonate rock, a form of limestone composed of the mineral calcite. Calcite is calcium carbonate or CaCO3. It forms under reasonably deep marine conditions from the gradual accumulation of minute calcite shells (coccoliths) shed from micro-organisms called coccolithophores. Flint (a type of chert unique to chalk) is very common as bands parallel to the bedding or as nodules embedded in chalk. It is probably derived from sponge spicules or other siliceous organisms as water is expelled upwards during compaction. Flint is often deposited around larger fossils such as Echinoidea which may be silicified (i.e. replaced molecule by molecule by flint). Chalk as seen in Cretaceous deposits of Western Europe is unusual among sedimentary limestone in the thickness of the beds. Most cliffs of chalk have very few obvious bedding planes unlike most thick sequences of limestone such as the Carboniferous Limestone or the Jurassic oolitic limestones. This presumably indicates very stable conditions over tens of millions of years. Figure (1-1): Calcium sulphate 1 "Nitzana Chalk curves" situated at Western Negev, Israel are chalk deposits formed at the Mesozoic era's Tethys Ocean Chalk has greater resistance to weathering and slumping than the clays with which it is usually associated, thus forming tall steep cliffs where chalk ridges meet the sea. Chalk hills, known as chalk downland, usually form where bands of chalk reach the surface at an angle, so forming a scarp slope. Because chalk is well jointed it can hold a large volume of ground water, providing a natural reservoir that releases water slowly through dry seasons.

  • History of Stambridge School
    Contents Stambridge School 1877-1977 1 Staff – May 1877 18 Staff – May 1977 18 Headteachers 1877-1977 19 Written by J. A. Mazonowicz 1977 Original document typed by Mrs. J. Russell, Stambridge Primary School, 1977 Digitised and reset in 2013 STAMBRIDGE SCHOOL, 1877 – 1977 "Now we must educate our masters” said the Secretary for Education, Mr. Robert Lowe, in the House of Commons, after the passing of the Parliamentary Reform Act of 1867 giving working men the vote. In due course, but by the efforts of a new Secretary, Mr. E.M. Forster, the Education Act of 1870 became law and local authorities were required to build schools in parishes where none were available. At the time, for those Stambridge children who were prepared to undertake the journey, there were in Rochford Dame Schools or the National & British Schools, these latter being organised by the church and chapel authorities. Not many children from the village attended the Rochford ecclesiastical school; indeed, a census taken a few years before 1870 indicated that less than half a dozen pupils came from Stambridge. The churches had to finance their schools from voluntary contributions supported only sometimes by a state grant, but the cost of providing a church school proved too prohibitive for the Stambridge religious authorities. However, in order to keep in line with the government decree the prospect of building a school eventually had to be faced and a local Board of Education was set up. This consisted of seven representatives headed by the rector, the Reverend Penny, who used money raised by local rates together with a government grant - equal to the amount already raised - to build and maintain a school for Stambridge children.
