Rural Discontent in Derbyshire 1830·1850
RURAL DISCONTENT IN DERBYSHIRE 1830·1850 Alan Frank Jones Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Sheffield January 2004 ii Alan Frank Jones RURAL DISCONTENT IN DERBYSlllRE 1830-1850 ABSTRACT Social protest, especially in agricultural regions, has occupie~ and caused considerable debate among, historians for many years. This thesis seeks to add to this debate, by looking at various forms of protest in Derbyshire between 1830 and 1850. This thesis examines three aspects of criminal activity: poaching, arson and animal maiming. It contends that none of these crimes can simply be categorised as acts of protest. In conjunction with an investigation of these three crimes, acts of protest such as strikes and episodes of reluctance to conform are also discussed. It argues that the motives behind various criminal activities and anti-authority behaviour were varied and complex. Arson and animal maiming were rarely co-ordinated, mostly they were individual attacks. However, on a few occasions both arson and animal maiming were directed against certain people. In the instances of poaching, there were more proven cases of gang participation than in either arson or animal maiming, with groups of men raiding game preserves. However, the great majority of raids were individual undertakings. What is more, poaching was carried out on a greater scale throughout the county than either arson or animal maiming. This thesis seeks to put these activities into the context of economic and social change in Derbyshire between 1830 and 1850. It maintains that there was a breaking down of the old social order. -

Why Is the Sister of JF Kennedy Buried in Derbyshire?
Why is the sister of JF Kennedy buried in Derbyshire? (The Day John Fitzgerald Kennedy brought flowers from Ireland to lay on the grave of his sister Kathleen; buried in Derbyshire) Story – Gerry Molumby Colour Pictures – credit Cormac Molumby (L to R Eunice, JFK, Joe, Rosemary and Kathleen) The few days in June 1963 when the first Irish- American President visited Ireland have gone down in history as a pivotal expression of Ireland’s place in the world; when a great –grandson of Irish immigrants became President of the United States of American. Following his visit to Ireland the President travelled on the 29th June to Waddington RAF base in Lincolnshire and from there travelled by helicopter to the little village of Edensor , Chatsworth; in the beautiful Peak District of Derbyshire . This was a well kept secret (more easily done in the sixties), so why this detour on route to meeting Prime Minister Harold Macmillan? The President came to visit the grave of his young sister who had died at the tender age of 28 .Kathleen (born February 20, 1920), known affectionally within the large Kennedy family as ‘Kick’ who had ‘come’ from the most famous Irish-American Dynasty to die in England as 1 Final resting place of Kathleen Kennedy by Gerry Molumby the Marchioness of Hartington (May 13, 1948) and widow of the heir apparent to the Dukedom of Devonshire.

Volume 1 from Servants to Staff: the Making of a Modern Estate
Volume 1 From Servants to Staff: The Making of a Modern Estate Chatsworth 1908-1950 By: Fiona Clapperton A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts & Humanities School of English & Department of History This Work Was Supported by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (grant number AH/M007316/1) February 2019 2 Abstract Taking as its subject the estate of Chatsworth, in rural Derbyshire, this thesis addresses the question of how the history of the country estate can be understood, not from the perspective of a single social group, but in relation to the whole community who lived, worked and interacted within its boundaries. Structurally, the thesis is comprised of four thematically organised chapters. Each focuses upon a different subset of the estate community and draws upon different kinds of archival material. Each chapter also adopts a distinct methodological approach in response to the source material under scrutiny. In particular, the thesis pays attention to analytical tools developed within the field of historical pragmatics. I argue that this innovative, multi-methodological approach enables a holistic understanding of archival sources to emerge. The thesis finds that, while demographic mapping provides one level of insight, the information contained within letters and memoirs can be crucial for understanding the social norms and interpersonal relationships which made up the framework underpinning the estate community. In particular, it draws upon a variety of documents from the records of Chatsworth’s senior employees, who occupied an important mediatory role within the estate hierarchy. -
