  • Henry Isaac Rowntree: His Life and Legacy (Reprinted from York Historian Vol
    1 Henry Isaac Rowntree: his life and legacy (reprinted from York Historian vol. 28) Elizabeth Jackson Summary: Although Joseph Rowntree is the name which springs to mind when thinking of York’s great chocolate and confectionery business, the family only got into this field through the initiative of his brother Henry Isaac, whose life and career are explored here. He emerges as a likeable and impulsive character, fully sharing the progressive social and political views of his father and siblings, putting his beliefs into effect through the Adult Schools and York Temperance Society, and even founding a newspaper, the Yorkshire Express, to advance the Radical Liberal cause. Yet he lacked the business brain and methodical approach of brother Joseph, who was ultimately drawn into the cocoa business to get him out of trouble. Figure 1. Henry Isaac Rowntree (courtesy of Bootham School Archives) Introduction. One afternoon in the early eighteen-sixties William S. Rowntree, then a pupil at Bootham school, encountered his ‘cousin’ Henry in a York street, and was taken by him to see a new cocoa grinding machine installed in a small room in his works near the corner of Coppergate and Castlegate. Henry explained his visionary aim - to manufacture something that would come to be essential in every home.1 William liked Henry – his kindness, humour and racy stories made him a hero in the boy’s eyes. And he enjoyed visiting at the house on the corner of Bootham and St Mary’s where Henry lived with his widowed mother Sarah, his older brothers John and Joseph having already married and set up home.

The close confines of the city, Available online 12 August 2013 the household and industrial waste, alongside the air and water pollution made this a city known for its pervasive smells, which at the time were considered to be a leading cause of disease. This paper aims to present the environmental context for disease combined with the human osteological record to recon- struct the pathoecology of medieval York. Combining archaeological and historical data, we gain insight into the interplay between medieval culture, disease, health, and the urban environment. It is clear that local authorities were concerned about urban pollution, and historical evidence demonstrates that legal measures were taken to remove or regulate some of the perceived causes of pollution. There is a demonstrable trend towards improving environmental conditions in York between the 11th and mid- 16th century. However, it is likely that the extant socio-environmental conditions continued to contribute to morbidity, as evidenced by the prevalence of infection. Ó 2013 Elsevier Ltd and INQUA.

  • DOMESTIC OBJECTS in YORK C.1400–1600 Consumption, Neighbourhood and Choice
    DOMESTIC OBJECTS IN YORK c.1400–1600 Consumption, Neighbourhood and Choice Lisa Jane Howarth Liddy, MA PhD University of York History August 2015 Abstract Focusing on object assemblages as revealed by documentary and archaeological sources, this thesis explores the material culture of fifteenth- and sixteenth-century York households. It examines the range of objects available to York residents while investigating the ways in which they were used and displayed and the values attributed to them. The first chapter introduces the key research questions, concerning the nature of object assemblages, change over time and interdisciplinarity. It discusses the data sets used and contains an overview of the historiography of urban material culture and household archaeology in England. The second chapter explains the methodology adopted, including prosopographical scoping of the individuals whose possessions have informed this work. Using information provided by surviving buildings and probate inventories, the third chapter investigates the size and composition of York houses, focusing on the ways in which object assemblages inform the spaces found within. It argues that rooms were defined by their contents rather than their physical structure or placement, and challenges the definition and timing of “rebuilding” within the city. The fourth and fifth chapters explore various types of value attributed to object assemblages. The fourth chapter concentrates on financial value as assigned in inventories and revealed by discard practices, and advocates consideration of functional value, leading to an examination of specialization of work and organization of production. The fifth chapter focuses on affective value as revealed through testamentary description, proposing an original methodology for applying the history of emotions to material culture.
