Early History Enderby is an unusual and interesting surname There is little known about the Greenwich and in 1643, a Daniel Enderby (c.1600-60) raised Daniel b. c.1600 – d. 1660 and probably of Old Norse origin.

  • Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania
    65 THE ENGLISH AT THE DERWENT, AND THE RISDON SETTLEMENT. BY JAMES BACKHOUSE WALKER. Read October 14th, 1889. ], The English at the Derwent. In a paper which I had the honour to read before the Royal Society last November, entitled " The French in Van Diemen's Land," I endeavoured to show how the discoveries of the French at the Derwent, and their supposed design of occupation, influenced Governor King's mind, and led him to despatch the first English colony to these shores. That paper brought the story to the 12th September, 1803, when the Albion whaler, with Governor Bowen on board, cast anchor in Risdon Cove, five days after the Lady Nelson, which had brought the rest of his small establishment. The choice of such an unsuitable place as Risdon for the site of the first settlement has always been something of a puzzle; and, in order to understand the circumstances which led to this ill-advised selection, it will be necessary to go back some years, and follow the historj'^ of English discovery and exploration in the South of Tasmania. I have already noticed the elaborate and complete surveys of the Canal D'Entrecasteaux, and the Riviere du Nord, made by the French navigators in 1792, and again in 1802 ; but it must be remembered that the results of these expeditions were long kept a profound secret, not only from the English, but from the world in general. Contemporaneously with the French, English navigators had been making independent discoveries and surveys in Southern Tasmania ; and it was solely the knowledge thus acquired that guided Governor King when he instructed Bowen " to fix on a proper place about Risdon's Cove " for the new settlement.

From his student days he had been an avid book collector. He formed relationships with antiquarian booksellers throughout the north of England. His interests were eclectic but focused on English literature of the 17th and 18th centuries. Several of my father’s books have survived in the present collection. During childhood I paid little attention to his books but in later years I too became a collector. During the war I was evacuated to the Lake District and my school in Keswick incorporated Greta Hall, where Coleridge lived with Robert Southey and his family. So from an early age the Lake Poets were a significant part of my life and a focus of my book collecting.

  • The Emergence of a Catholic Identity and the Need For
    THE EMERGENCE OF A CATHOLIC IDENTITY AND THE NEED FOR EDUCATIONAL AND SOCIAL PROVISION IN NINETEENTH CENTURY BRIGHTON SANDY KENNEDY UNIVERSITY OF LONDON INSTITUTE OF EDUCATION DECEMBER 2013 MY DECLARATION PLUS WORD COUNT I hereby declare that, except where explicit attribution is made, the work presented in this thesis is entirely my own. Word Count: 84,109 ABSTRACT The 1829 Act of Emancipation was designed to return to Catholics the full rights of citizenship which had been denied them for over two hundred years. In practice, Protestant mistrust and Establishment fears of a revival of popery continued unabated. Yet thirty years earlier, in Regency Brighton, the Catholic community although small seemed to have enjoyed an unprecedented degree of tolerance and acceptance. This thesis questions this apparent anomaly and asks whether in the century that followed, Catholics managed to unite across class and nationality divides and establish their own identity, or if they too were subsumed into the culture of the time, subject to the strict social and hierarchical ethos of the Victorian age. It explores the inevitable tension between 'principle' and 'pragmatism' in a town so heavily dependent upon preserving an image of relaxed and welcoming populism. This is a study of the changing demography of Brighton as the Catholic population expanded and schools and churches were built to meet their needs, mirroring the situation in the country as a whole. It explains the responsibilities of Catholics to themselves and to the wider community. It offers an in-depth analysis of educational provision in terms of the structure, administration and curriculum in the schools, as provided both by the growing number of religious orders and lay teachers engaged in the care and education of both the wealthy and the poor.

  • Conserving the Forgotten Latitudes
    Conserving the forgotten latitudes: Approaches to wildlife management on Southern Ocean Islands Carnley Harbour and Victoria Passage, Auckland Islands © K. Beer 2009. ANTA 604 report submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Postgraduate Certificate in Antarctic Studies at the University of Canterbury 2010/2011. Kate J. Beer ID 39689442 Word count: 8432 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Southern Ocean or sub-Antarctic islands are broadly defined as the island archipelagos falling between 30o and 60o south. These islands are greatly influenced by their proximity to the Antarctic continent, but form a unique bioregion. The islands are characterised by low species diversity, but with high levels of endemism. They are also key breeding locations for Southern Hemisphere seabirds. Historically the sub-Antarctic islands have been isolated from human populations so were late to be discovered and rarely visited since then. However the islands were not immune to outside influence as first sealing industries exhausted the fur and elephant seal populations, and second the early settlers introduced non-native species that preyed upon island fauna and/or destroyed vegetation and habitats. In the present day, a number of these non-native species continue to wreck havoc on the islands, and they are widely recognised as the single largest threat to the biological integrity of the Southern Ocean islands. Other notable threats are human visitation, wildlife disease, and climate change. Of course, all these factors are inextricably linked, and impossible to consider in isolation. The potential for pest and disease incursion increases in a warming world, and increased tourism pressures in the Antarctic region mean there is also an increased interest in visiting the sub-Antarctic islands.

  • The Arctic Council of 1851
    385 NOTES AND REVIEWS THE ARCTIC COUNCIL OF 1851 In 1848, when no news of Sir John Franklin's expedition of 1845 had reached England, alarm began to manifest itself for the fate of the missing men. In that year the first of the long series of search expeditions set out. By 1851 the plans of these expeditions were placed in the hands of the "Arctic Council", appointed by the Admiralty and consisting of the most prominent" Arcticists " of the period. To mark the centenary of the formation of this Arctic Council, we reproduce an engraving after the painting by Stephen Pearce, showing this group of experts. Brief notes on their previous careers are added.
