    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stirling Online Research Repository Unitarian Members of Parliament in the Nineteenth Century A Catalogue D. W. Bebbington Professor of History, University of Stirling The catalogue that follows contains biographical data on the Unitarians who sat in the House of Commons during the nineteenth century. The main list, which includes ninety-seven MPs, is the body of evidence on which the paper on „Unitarian Members of Parliament in the Nineteenth Century‟ is based. The paper discusses the difficulty of identifying who should be treated as a Unitarian, the criterion chosen being that the individual appears to have been a practising adherent of the denomination at the time of his service in parliament. A supplementary list of supposed Unitarian MPs, which follows the main list, includes those who have sometimes been identified as Unitarians but who by this criterion were not and some who may have been affiliated to the denomination but who were probably not. The borderline is less sharp than might be wished, and, when further research has been done, a few in each list may need to be transferred to the other. Each entry contains information in roughly the same order. After the name appear the dates of birth and death and the period as an MP. Then a paragraph contains general biographical details drawn from the sources indicated at the end of the entry. A further paragraph discusses religious affiliation and activities. Unattributed quotations with dates are from Dod’s Parliamentary Companion, as presented in Who’s Who of British Members of Parliament.

Through a careful analysis of both primary and secondary documents, this study focuses on a brief overview of the state and objectives of nineteenth century British religious pacifism at the time of the Crimean War, with a particular emphasis on the Quaker-inspired and -dominated London Peace Society. Further, the attitudes and actions of the religious pacifists prior to and during the Crimean War are juxtaposed against those in the Protestant religious community who supported the war.

  • The Issues of the Present Day Make It Particularly Appropriate to Reflect on the Long and Controversial Career of Henry Richard
    ThE RELEVancE OF HENRY RichaRD The issues of the present day make it particularly appropriate to reflect on the long and controversial career of Henry Richard. Born in rural Tregaron, in southern Ceredigion in 1812, the issues which he championed have a remarkable contemporary relevance. Since one of Richard’s famous slogans was ‘Trech gwlad nag Arglwydd’ (A land is mightier than its lord) it may appear paradoxical that his career should be re-evaluated by a member of the present (still unelected) House of Lords. For all that, this provides an opportunity to recall one of the most remarkable and courageous Welshmen of the modern world. By (Lord) Kenneth O.

Chancellor with a hidden agenda. The Chancellor of the Exchequer (Mr. Lloyd George) arrived by motor-car at Aberdare on Wednesday night, and for a few days he will be the guest of Sir William Thomas Lewis, Bart., at the Mardy. To-day Mr Lloyd George under Sir William's guidance, will make a tour of the mining valleys, and will probably descend one of the pits. He will be accompanied by Sir Robert Chalmers, KCB, Chairman of the Board of Inland Revenue; Mr C F Masterman, MP, Parliamentary Secretary to the Local Government Board; Mr W H Clark (private secretary), and Mr R Lumley, all of whom arrived in the district last Wednesday night. What the exact object of the visit to the Welsh coalfield is cannot be stated yet, for the simple reason that it is not known except to Mr Lloyd George and Sir William. It is believed that the Chancellor is in search of fresh sources of revenue. Aberdare people are keenly interested in the visit, and small crowds assembled in the main streets on Wednesday afternoon in the hope of catching a glimpse of the Chancellor. It was seven o’clock when Mr Lloyd George arrived from North Wales, via Llanidloes and Brecon, and motored straight to the Mardy.

  • Charles Butt Stanton 1873-1946 The
    CHARLES BUTT STANTON, 1873–1946 Charles Butt Stanton was born at Aberaman in the Cynon Valley on 7 April 1873, the son of Thomas and Harriet Stanton. After his education at Aberaman British School, he obtained his first job as a page boy in a Bridgend household, then later returned home to work in a local colliery. An incident during the Hauliers‟ Strike of 18931 brought him to public notice when it was alleged that he fired a gun during a clash between miners and the police. Arrested and tried, he was found guilty of possessing an unlicensed gun and sentenced to six months‟ imprisonment. Prison did not cool his spirit and he played an active part in the South Wales miners‟ strike of 1898. This strike failed, but one of its results was the founding in the same year of the South Wales Miners‟ Federation (S.W.M.F.), in which the seven district unions came together (by 1914 the S.W.M.F. had a membership of 200,000). In the following year, 1899, it affiliated with the Miners‟ Federation of Great Britain, which had been founded at Newport in 1888. As its name suggests, it was a federation of district unions. In 1893, only 45,000 of the 120,000 miners belonged to affiliated unions: Northumberland Miners did not join until 1907, with Durham following in 1908, by which time there was a total membership of 600,000. Soon after the 1898 strike, Stanton went to London and found work as a docker, taking an active role in the London dock strike in the same year.

  • Joseph Sturge and the Crimean War. I. the Search for a Cause
    Joseph Sturge and the Crimean War. i. The Search for a Cause Y nineteenth-century standards, Joseph Sturge was in every way a model Quaker. The wealthy head of a Bthriving Birmingham grain firm, he chose to live unostentatiously, less committed to getting and spending than to philanthropic and social concerns. Among other things, Sturge had been engaged in the anti-slavery move­ ment (for which cause he undertook the journey made famous in his published journal The West Indies in 1837), the Anti-Corn Law League and the movement for franchise reform. 1 Yet nowhere are his Quaker principles more strikingly revealed than in his attitude toward war and in his attempts to secure world peace. As a birthright member of the Society of Friends, Joseph Sturge had been imbued with the spirit of pacifism from 1 Henry Richard, Memoirs of Joseph Sturge, London, 1864, hereafter cited as Memoirs. See pp. 73-249 (anti-slavery), 269-290 (Anti-Corn Law League) and 291-341 (franchise reform). Most of what has been written about Sturge, including Stephen Hobhouse's competent Joseph Sturge, London, 1919, has largely been derived from Richard's standard biography. This is understandable. Richard tells us that he had for his sources "a correspondence . extending between three and four thousand letters", as well as "a large number of other documents and records, including diaries, reports of societies, minutes of committees, pamphlets, newspapers, etc.", and he had an intimate, first-hand knowledge of his subject. Very few of the documents which Richard had at his disposal have survived to the present day and for this reason Richard's biography is essential to anyone who wishes to write about Sturge.

  • Henry Austin Bruce, the Duffryn Estate and the Development of An
    Henry Austin Bruce, the Duffryn Estate and the Development of an Industrial Society: Mountain Ash 1845 – 1895 Presented for the degree of Master of Philosophy 2016 Jeremy James Morgan Summary Henry Austin Bruce gained recognition as an important figure in Welsh and British political life during the latter half of the nineteenth century. He was particularly active in the fields of education and social policy, being a proponent of progressive mo ves towards increased provision of these public services for working people. After a period in London, he returned to his ancestral estate at Duffryn to help superintend his father’s properties in that area. As a landowner in industrial Glamorgan, he was well placed to observe the impact of industrialisation on those communities and to appreciate the consequences of the inaction of the elite, alongside understanding the efforts that were successful in improving conditions. His actions at Mountain Ash were those from which he gained the experience he applied elsewhere. Henceforth, his career saw him undertake efforts to improve the condition of the people in ever widening spheres. Nevertheless, he did not have total freedom of action even at his home, Duffryn was a place with experience of socio-economic change and much of that was outside his influence. At Mountain Ash, he was able to influence practical change in the evolution of the shape of development and the evolution of public services for this nascent community. It was in the questions where he had most personal interest, as shown in numerous public addresses he gave, that he sought to exert the greatest influence.
