  • 1 Richard Jukes, the Poet Transcription of Sketch in the Primitive Methodist Magazine by Grapho
    Richard Jukes, The Poet Transcription of Sketch in the Primitive Methodist Magazine by Grapho “A Servant of the most high God.” We must confess to some little perplexity, with regard to where to fix our point of beginning in this proposed series of life-sketches. Our difficulty is not because of paucity; but because of the abundance of names. For Primitive Methodism is wealthy in the possession of worthy and honoured names. No chronological order will be maintained in our selection; nor shall we be limited to any district or locality in our choice, but we shall endeavour to compass the whole connexion’s length and breadth, to find our “representative men.” Still, it seems to us the most natural and consistent thing to begin at least with some whose names cluster around our childhood, and which are like precious perfume wafted from the “classic regions” of our denomination's earlier decades to regale and to inspire even now. And with these feelings we have set the name of Richard Jukes to commence with. And we have been constrained to do this for two reasons. Because he belongs to the first generation of our heroic forefathers, and because he is the first, or one of the first of our old warriors who came into my early life, and whose influences are entwined around one’s tender years. Through the vista of the long years we see him still massive and princely in form. For our old sires, at least many of them, were built physically for the almost superhuman hardships and toilings of those beginning years of our Church’s history.

The most prosaic reader of the history must be impressed with its romantic elements, and these have been brought into special prominence by the various Centenary celebrations all over the country. For the facts embodied in this volume I have freely availed myself of what has been written, not only by those who have taken in hand to set forth in order the history of, the Church whose origin is inseparably associated with Mow Cop, but by the large number of writers who have happily been led during these Centenary years to gather up the facts respecting a given Circuit or District. Many of these local Souvenirs are of deep interest and of considerable historical value. But my first and warmest thanks are due to the Rev.

By this enlargement the foundations were laid of the whole of the modern Shrewsbury, and of a goodly portion of the West Midland District. Moreover, some of these new circuits, almost from the time of their formation, threw out missions into more distant counties, the fruit of which was seen after many days.

  • The Baker Family Tree – Book of Reference
    The Baker Family Tree – Book of Reference Outline This document gives the basic information on individuals within the four Grandparent trees – Paternal Grandfather, Paternal Grandmother, Maternal Grandfather and Maternal Grandmother. For each tree, the schematics from the web site are given, followed by tabular entries for the individuals in generation order. Each individual is numbered eg PGM3.4, where “PGM” indicates the Paternal Grandmother, “3” indicates the generation number (with the titular grandparent being generation 1) and “4” indicates the position within the generation. The latter is measured from 1 at the top of the tree to the total possible number of entries in that generation at the bottom of the tree. Thus not every number will be taken by any means, particular in the more distant generations. The source for the data comes from census records or from various indexes as follows. • ESBC – England Select Birth and Christenings • ESM – England Select Marriages • COE – Church of England Parish Registers • EWCRB – England and Wales Civil Registration Birth • EWCRM – England and Wales Civil Registration Marriage • EWCRD – England and Wales Civil Registration Death • FAG – Find a grave Where no entry is given for the source, these details are inferred from other sources – primarily from a comparison of various census returns.

    ISSN 0043-2873 (Print) ISSN 2632-4466 (Online) PROCEEDINGS OF THE WESLEY HISTORICAL SOCIETY Cumulative Index to Volumes 51 to 60 Prepared by Dr Christine E. Jones INTRODUCTORY NOTE This index to Volumes 51-60 of the Proceedings is a sequel to the General Index to volumes 31 to 50 compiled by John Vickers and published in 1997. It follows closely the style and conventions of its predecessor in that volume numbers are given in Arabic numerals and printed in bold. However, references to publications are now in italics rather than underlined. As before, there are separate indexes to contributors and their articles and to illustrations. There is also an index to book reviews, arranged by author. However, the layout in this index has been altered to correspond to that of the individual indexes to volumes 56 to 60, starting with the Index to Illustrations, then the Index to Contributors and Articles (by author), followed by General Index, and finally the Index to Book Reviews. In the case of extended references, the first and last page numbers are given. The letter ’n’ has been used to draw attention to information located in a footnote. Also like its predecessor, the cumulative index is based on the biennial volume indexes compiled originally by John A. Vickers (volumes 51-55) and Mary Madden (volumes 56-60). Thanks are due to them for their diligence, and to John McCartney (Proceedings Distribution Manager) for providing hard copies of those indexes from which to compile the current work. Errors and omissions are the responsibility of the current indexer and compiler.

For an Introduction to this branch of the family and an account of the first five generations of this branch, see Skidmore Families of the Black Country, the first five generations on the website www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com. The following account begins at Generation 6, denoted by superscript 6 next to the name of the head of household. DATES • Prior to 1752 the year began on 25 March (Lady Day). In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840.

  • A List of English and Welsh Provincial Gunsmiths and Gunmakers from 1550 to 1850
    Research Press Library English and Welsh Gunsmiths and Gunmakers, 1550 – 1850 A List of English and Welsh Provincial Gunsmiths and Gunmakers from 1550 to 1850 by Brian Godwin The following pages contain a list of English and Welsh gunsmiths and gunmakers from around 1550 to about 1850*. The list has been compiled from free on-line sources such as County Record and Archive Offices and The National Archives, but it must not be considered a definitive list, as new information is added from time to time. The availability of on-line sources from English and Welsh County Record and Archive Offices varies enormously, some as yet having no searchable digitised records, while in other Offices the digitalisation of records can vary from 20% to 80%. In the tables each County is listed alphabetically in a PINK banner, although this may cause some confusion as Yorkshire and Sussex, for instance, are split into east and west regions. For those searching for the gunmakers of “Birmingham and its environs” you will need to search the three principal sections of the list, “Birmingham and the West Midlands”, “Staffordshire Record Office” and “Warwickshire Record Office”. The Record Office document reference is shown on the right hand side and the date of the document on the left. A copy of the document can usually be obtained from the appropriate Record Office quoting the reference, although there is no guarantee that the document will provide additional information. However, the vast majority of Wills do give an insight into a particular gunmaker and sometimes provide details of his wealth, family and workshop.
