His particular interest was for mineralogy, but he also had interests in botany, which lead him to create a sizeable herbarium con- taining many interesting plants. Most of these have been collected in the field, but there are also specimens from early plant nurseries and important gardens in Europe. The notes on the herbarium sheets are also ex- ceptionally detailed. Adjacent to many species, the medicinal properties and domestic uses have been de- scribed.

  • By Mark Wareham, First Edition 15 December 2011
    Our Family’s Rich Heritage By Mark Wareham, first edition 15th December 2011 Featuring Blachford family ancestors of the – Wareham family of Shaftesbury and Shroton (Iwerne Courtney) in Dorset and the Russell, Hurdle and Tapper families of Shroton and Dodington family ancestors of the – Wareham family of Shaftesbury, Stainer family of Donhead and Shaftesbury and the Love family of Motcombe in Dorset and Mere in Wiltshire 1 Introduction My father’s Wareham family is fortunate to be able to claim ancestral connections to two lines that were landed gentry - the Blachfords of Fordingbridge and the Dodingtons of Mere. The choice of the title of this work is appropriate because I am going to look into our ‘rich’ roots in terms of historical value as well as wealth and social status. As a result of our connection to these two families we have so called ‘gateway’ ancestors, Susannah Blachford of Fordingbridge and Martha Dodington of Mere and they help us trace a family lineage back to the medieval period and beyond. The Blachford family held Sandhill Manor (now called Sandleheath) near Fordingbridge in Hampshire and the Dodington family held Woodlands Manor in Mere in Wiltshire. Page four shows the lines from my two great grandparents, Sidney’s parents Walter George Wareham and Harriet Stainer, to Susannah and Martha. One of my grandfather Sidney Wareham’s (pictured right) great x 7 grandfathers was the gentleman and Lord of the Manor of Woodlands, William Dodington and another great x 5 grandfather was the gentleman, Mr Daniel Blachford who grandson of the Lord of the Manor of Sandhill.

  • Who Were the Landowners Who Put Their Marks to The
    11 Who were the landowners? Who were the landowners who put their marks to the boundary stones? Throughout this report references have been made to various landowners and the letters they had carved on these boundary stones to indicate ownership of land. A brief biography is presented below for those landowners that have left their marks or initial on these granite posts. Here the writer has concentrated purely on the period when the boundary stones were likely to have been set up, from the late eighteen century through to the beginning of the twentieth century. Several of these men were prominent and important figures in the nineteenth century Cornwall. 11.1 Gilbert Davies Gilbert (1767-1839) The mark of Davies Gilbert, a G, appears on several boundary stones on Blisland Commons, including the eastern face of Peverall’s Cross, which was adopted as a manorial bound stone. Davies Gilbert was born Davies Giddy in 1767, the son of a curate at St Erth, the Revd. Edward Giddy. Revd. Giddy died in 1814 at the age of 80 years (Polsue,1867, I, 361). In 1809, Davies Giddy married a wealthy heiress Mary Ann Gilbert and later in 1816 at the age of 49, as a condition attached to her uncle’s estate, had to change his name from Giddy to Gilbert to inherit her uncle’s fortune. 49 Davies Giddy was recorded as being the Bodmin member of the Lords, Bounders, Adventurers and Tinners that met for a general meeting in Penzance on the 28 th July 1810. 50 As Davies Giddy he represented Bodmin as a Member of Parliament in 1806, 1807 and 1812, and as Davies Gilbert in 1818, 1826, 1830 and 1831.

The steam engine as improved by Watt was probably the most important technological advance of the industrial revolution; with the fuel economies of the separate condenser, steam engines could operate anywhere. Later improvements included a new coupling so that the engine could work in both directions, rotative motion, and a governor for safety.

The roots of the Duchy date back nearly a thousand years therefore an understanding of the roots of the Duchy and its evolution, focussing on the significant legal issues, over time is necessary to comprehend its present position. The thesis concludes by exploring issues surrounding the contemporary legal status of the Duchy and identifies areas in which there is a convenient ambiguity. In doing so it establishes that while the Duchy and Government describe it as a “private estate” it enjoys privileges and rights which are unique to a “private estate”. In addition it has a significant role in supporting the United Kingdom’s Head of State, the Sovereign, and the heir to the throne.
