The Diocese Originally in the Diocese of York, it became part of the Diocese of Ripon when that was created in 1836 and then in 1919 it became the Cathedral Church for the Diocese of Bradford. Later, in 2014, the three dioceses of Ripon and Leeds, Bradford and Wakefield were dissolved and a new diocese was formed, officially called the Diocese of Leeds, but known as the Diocese of West Yorkshire and the Dales. The new diocese consists of five episcopal areas, Leeds, Ripon, Wakefield, Bradford and Huddersfield and has three cathedrals, Bradford, Ripon and Wakefield.

About this joint project: It is a three-stage project between Bradford Family History Society, Bradford Historical and Antiquarian Society and Bradford Cathedral.

Part 1: Transcriptions of monumental inscriptions and of commemorations on points of interest. This is being facilitated by members of the Cathedral staff who have listed them and also photographed many of them. Many inscriptions are either out-of-sight due to building adaptations, or else so high in the Tower that they cannot be read any other way.

The results of this have become this fully illustrated, fully searchable pdf free download.

Part 2: Using these transcriptions as a base, members of Bradford Historical and Antiquarian Society are researching and producing obituaries of the people commemorated. These will be published by that Society on their website www.bradfordhistorical.org.uk and/or in their journal, The Antiquary, from time to time.

Part 3: Staff at the Cathedral will use the results of parts 1 and 2 of the project as source material in their work at the Cathedral. www.bradfordcathedral.org

Identification of areas and memorial inscriptions Each area of the Cathedral has been named and allocated a letter designation. These, together with the monument number within those areas, will be used for cross-referencing with later developments within the project.

Memorials outside the Cathedral Co-incidentally, Part 1 of this project also acts as a supplement to an earlier project by Bradford Family History Society in which the monumental inscriptions on the remaining gravestones in the Churchyard were recorded. These are produced in booklet form, for ease of use whilst wandering about the graves. It can be obtained from the Cathedral bookshop, at Society meetings, via our website or from: http://www.genfair.co.uk/supplier.php?sid=12 who also sell a Download version.

Acknowledgements Thank you: • To all who have worked on this project, particularly Gillian Davis of the Cathedral who worked on the building plan, listed the memorials, photographed many of them and became pivotal to the whole project. • Astrid Hansen, the Honorary Cathedral Archivist who has been so supportive and made her expertise available. • The help and cooperation given by other groups to us. • Arthur Blackburn who made recordings over 80 years ago of things which are no longer extant. He also quoted from earlier workers about recordings that we now know little as they are no longer extant. N.B. he worked alone and in difficult circumstances. His work was never independently checked. We know there are some errors but his work is very valuable. His work is given, verbatim, here.

Photographs Mostly taken by members of the cathedral staff. Thanks to those who used ladders, scaffolding etc. to create the images of monuments which were otherwise inaccessible and would have been unrecorded.

Conventions used in the transcriptions The recordings are, as near as practical, identical with both the spelling and layout of the originals. A transcriber’s note indicates any problems in deciphering anything. Square brackets [ ] have been used to indicate this and any other notes by the transcriber. Changes to upper & lower case text have been made to facilitate ease of scanning. Translations are given in a different font: calibri.

Finding a name in this Download Personal names are in capital letters whenever they are part of text to enable anyone scanning through the file to find names more easily. They are NOT in capitals whenever they are in a list form and already separate. This is to enable a word shape to be used to assist scanning. You may also search a PDF file for surnames, etc. If you are unsure how to do this, or how to move around the files, please go to Help with Adobe Reader (see bookmark on the left hand side.)

Spelling of names is varied and often phonetic. When searching for it, try as many variations as you can think of. Beware of combining names. For example, Mary Smith may be recorded as Mary the wife of John Smith, or as his relic or Widow Smyth or ??

Notes made by Arthur Blackburn, 1932

The interior of the Cathedral Parish Church of Bradford presents a grand and imposing spectacle to the eye. It may not indeed boast of marble effigies [sic] and tombs of “Lords and Knights, and high born Dames” but its venerable walls are not without some memorials of old and worthy Bradford families, although we have to confess with profound regret, that many of these in exceeding bad taste, have been stowed away in the dark western tower where their inscriptions can be neither seen nor read.

Fortunately, the choice piece of sculpture by FLAXMAN to the memory of ABRAHAM BALME has escaped the touch of the vandal and remains undisturbed. It was regarded by the great sculptor himself, as one of his finest conceptions, and it has called forth the admiration of that severest of critics JOHN RUSKIN.

The Cathedral Parish Church of St. Peter’s Bradford consists of a lower nave with aisles, chancel with north and south Chapels. This Cathedral Church was erected in the time of Henry VI and completed in the thirty sixth year of his reign, 1458, and occupied twenty years in the building. A Norman Church formerly occupied the site of the present one, and on the refronting of the latter, fragments of an ancient cross, and of sculptured stones were found built in the old wall, probably remnants of this Norman Church. Over the belfry door inside the Church is the date 1268. The tower contains a ring of 10 bells, and is 30 yards in height. The general style of the building may be considered perpendicular English although of a based character. Who the Architect and builders of this Church were are not known.

There is A SQUINT HOLE in the Cathedral. The Priest used to look through this hole to see if the light was burning over the altar.

II THE RAREDOS The raredos is a testimony of the liberality of Mr. M. W. THOMPSON. He presented this handsome ornament to the Church about the year 1862. The raredos is plain but well proportioned. It consists of one central group representing the Resurrection in relief surmounted by a canopy with decorated pinnacles. To the right and left are panels containing shields and other ornaments. The two shields on the right bear representations of Christ’s garment upon which the soldiers cast lots, and the implements of the Crucifixion, the hammer, pincers, and a sponge, laid over a cross beneath which is a skull. The shields to the left of the centre piece contain representations of the Crown of thorns, with nails, and the scourge. Beneath each shield there is a leaf and branch work representing the oak, ivy, holly, and olive, and over them are placed fillets, but the latter have not any inscriptions upon them. At the left corner in a niche, is a representation of ST PETER with the keys, and at the opposite corner, also in a niche, is a representation of ST PAUL with the sword. Round the frieze are beautifully carved imitations of corn, and the vine. The whole of the workmanship is characteristic in design and in keeping with the subjects represented.

THE ALTAR CLOTH is plain with a little fringe. It is made of Crimson cloth, and in the centre in Gilt ornamental characters are the letters I. H. S.

THE TWO STEPS TO THE ALTAR are of dark veined marble.

Underneath the window within the Sanctuary there is inserted in the wall an old piscina with the hole still intact. The basin is grooved with eight futes for the reception of the water and Communion elements. The cusps are almost worn off, and the original decoration is much damaged.

Before the Church was restored, within the Sanctuary, there were TWO OLD FASHIONED OAK CHAIRS. Since the Cathedral Church was altered these Chairs have been removed; one of them is occupied by the verger, and is placed near the lectern; whilst the other is placed outside the Communion rails, and is occupied by one of the Canons in memory of ......

XVII. THE EAST WINDOW

The large East window is a remarkable specimen of the unity[?] of effect. The balance obtained in the architectural arrangements and proportioning of the panels are carried out in such a manner as to give the appearance of a lofty window, graceful and imposing enough for any Cathedral. It contains FOURTEEN lights, SEVEN on each tier, having cinq foil heads slightly pointed. The dental [sic] moulding separating the two tiers helps to increase the apparent loftiness of the window. The smaller lights at the top are happily filled in with glass, sufficiently transparent to allow the light to be thrown into the Chancel, hence a more pleasing effect is obtained than is commonly found in most windows of the kind, which are general filled in with dull opaque glass. In the centre of the first tier is the figure of ST PETER to whom the Church is dedicated. The figures on the right hand side are those of EZEKIEL in the posture of supplication, DANIEL in the act of pointing upwards, and ELIAS and the ravens, “acting under the impulse of a new instinct dutifully provided a morning and evening meal for the prophet ELIJAH. The above are half sized figures. Over them are placed JOSEPH of Nazareth, King SOLOMON and King DAVID, the latter with the harp. On the left are the patriarchs:- ABRAHAM with the knife, ISAAC with the basket of corn, and JACOB with mess of pottage. Underneath are MOSES with the Ten Commandments, ISAIAS bearing a scroll with the motto:- “For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given”, and JEREMIAH bearing a scroll with the motto:- “ Thou wilt return to Israel” In the centre of the second tier is the figure of our SAVIOUR, borne aloft by a Company of Angels. He holds in His hand a representation of THE GLOBE surmounted by the symbol of Christianity, THE CROSS. He is pointing upwards with the right hand, and overhead are the figures of seraphim. To the left are the figures of the Evangelists:- MATTHEW, MARK and JOHN THE BAPTIST. Over them are figures of MARY the wife of JOSEPH of Nazareth, ELIZABETH the mother of JOHN THE BAPTIST, and ANNA the prophetess. To the right are MARY MAGDALENE, MARTHA the martyr and MARY of Bethany. The colours are well combined. The dark olive green and dark red, with an occasional approach to claret stand out in effective relief. The navy blue, and dark chocolate brown also lend a good effect to the window, but the pleasing attention of light colours, breaking up into small patches the heavy masses of red, green and blue is the secret why this window looks so interesting, and characteristic. Imitations of Eastern flowers fill in the spaces of the cinq foil heads.

THE WEST WINDOW

The west window in the tower is the gift of the late WILLIAM WELLS Esq and for some time Church Warden of the Parish Church. It is a perpendicular window of SIX lights, portraying in brilliant colours FIVE SCENES from the life of our Lord. The centre light represents THE WOMEN AT THE TOMB:– “And they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared”. In the upper left hand corner is depicted THE ANNUNCIATION:– “Fear thou not MARY for thou hast found favour with God.” The lower left hand scene represents our Lord AT THE HOUSE OF MARY AND MARTHA:– “Mary hath chosen that good part which shall not be taken away from her”. In the upper right hand corner is shown OUR LORD AND MARY IN THE GARDEN. “Touch me not for I am not ascended unto my Father”. And lastly, in the lower right hand corner, THE WOMAN OF SOMARIA:– “Whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst”. In the upper part of this window there are fourteen other smaller figures some of them having reference to ELIZABETH, THE VIRGIN MARY, MARY MAGDALENE, MARTHA, EVE, SARAH, MIRIAM, HANNAH, RUTH, NAOMI, ESTHER, JOANNA, ANN and DORCAS. This window is considered to be the most ancient window in the Church. THE COLOURED GLASS BEARS THE FOLLOWING INSCRIPTION. This window is dedicated A.D. 1864 with much love and as a token of affection to the memory of CATHERINE WELLS who died June 20th 1857 aged 65 years. Also of JANE WELLS who died October 20th 1860 aged 65 years, daughter of PETER and ELIZABETH WELLS, formerly of Bradford, by ANN WELLS and WILLIAM WELLS, their only surviving sister and brother.

Memorial A9: Pte Eric Anderson, Victoria Cross

To the memory of Pte. ERIC ANDERSON, V.C of the East Yorkshire Regiment Who for his dauntless courage In rescuing three wounded comrades At Wadi Akarit 6. April 1943 Whilst under enemy fire Was awarded The Victoria Cross

London Gazette 23 July 1943 No. 4347754 Private Eric Anderson, The East Yorkshire Regiment (The Duke of York's Own) (Bradford). On the 6th April, 1943, a Battalion of the East Yorkshire Regiment was making a dawn attack on a strong enemy locality on the Wadi Akarit with " A" Company leading. After some progress had been made and " A " Company was advancing over an exposed forward slope, it suddenly came under most intense and accurate machine gun and mortar fire from well concealed enemy strong points not more than 200 yards away. Further advance in that direction was impossible and " A " Company was able to withdraw behind the crest of a hill, with the exception of a few men who were wounded and pinned to the ground by strong and well directed small arms fire. Private ANDERSON,, a stretcher bearer attached to " A " Company, seeing these men lying wounded in "no man's land ", quite regardless of his personal safety, went forward alone through intense fire and single handed carried back a wounded soldier to a place of safety where medical attention could be given. Knowing that more men were lying wounded in the open he again went out to the bullet swept slope, located a second wounded man and carried him to safety. Private ANDERSON went forward once again and safely evacuated a third casualty. Without any hesitation or consideration for himself he went out for a fourth time but by now he was the only target the enemy had to shoot at and when he reached the fourth wounded man, and was administering such first aid as he could to prepare for the return journey, he was himself hit and mortally wounded. Private ANDERSON, by his valour, complete disregard for his personal safety, and courage under fire, probably saved the lives of three of his comrades and his example was an inspiration to all who witnessed his gallant acts.

Memorial 12: James Joseph Magennis

Bradford salutes the memory Of Leading Seaman JAMES JOSEPH MAGENNIS Who for his singular bravery In action by Midget submarine X.E.3. Against the cruiser Takao In the Jahore Straits, July 31. 1945. was awarded The Victoria Cross

London Gazette 1945 On July 1st. 1945, Midget Submarine X63 was sent into the Straits of Johore with instructions to enter Singapore Harbour. Its mission was to mine and sink Japanese Cruiser TAKAO. The craft carried a diver – Ldg. Seaman MAGENNIS. His task was to leave the X-craft- and swim under water the remaining distance to the Cruiser. He carried with him magnetic limpet mines. These he was to fix beneath the cruiser’s hull. But first he had to scrape off the encrusting barnacles on the hull; a very tiring job. The mines were timed. Speed was essential. Any second he could have been heard and detected. At length he returned safely to the X-craft, the mission accomplished. The X-craft attempted to move away. But something had become fouled up while the craft had lain at the harbour bottom. Exhausted as he now was, Ldg. Seaman MAGENNIS left the craft again and worked to free the obstruction. The danger was that they would all be lost. At last his efforts were rewarded. He returned to the X-craft which made its escape. The cruiser exploded and was sunk. For this act of conspicuous bravery and devotion to duty and to his shipmates, MAGENNIS was awarded the Victoria Cross.

Memorial D1: Saxon Cross

THECROSS

These fragments of a Saxon cross marked the site for the first Christian gatherings in this area.

The cross is the symbol of the Christian faith be- cause Jesus died on a cross to save the world from sin.

Man’s biggest problem is a moral or spiritual one.

We all commit sin. This separates us from God & so we need his forgiveness.

If we confess our sin, God forgives us through the death of Jesus and he gives us eternal life.

This Saxon cross is evidence that Bradford’s first Christians over 1300 years ago found that way.

Bradford Christians still do.

These laid the world away, poured out the red wine of youth: gave up the years to be of work and joy And that unhoped serene that men call age: and those who would have been their sons they gave their immortality

REMEMBER The men and women of Bradford who gave their lives in the Second World War 1939 – 1945

[Translation of memorial] Tread gently on the remains of THOMAS CLAPHAM M.A., a descendant of the ancient stock of the Claphams of Bethmesley, (Beamsley), a Priest and Headmaster of Bradford Grammar School, whose refined learning, use of language, cultivation and outstanding bearing claimed the attention of everyone. He possessed a heavenly inspiration in carrying out his religious duties, a gift for speaking, good taste in his conversation, and a flowing, agreeable and resonant voice. He eschewed desire for disputation and theological tetchiness. He illustrated his subject with a short masterly paraphrase. Indeed, his Christian personality served both to stimulate and refute (ideas). He was a champion and protector of the priesthood when it was under attack. His pupils held their master in affection, as he did them. He treated each one very skilfully, according to his natural ability. With his scholarly comments he explained clearly and pleasurably the obscure parts of poets and orators. Because of this they all completed their daily work gladly, and besides this many boys offered him their essays straight away (a thing we do not often see) to them it was a study and a delight to please their master. When he had watched over the Church for fifteen years, and the School twenty years, he passed away (a sad loss to both) in his forty-ninth year. His widow Anna, the generous daughter of David Parkinson, bereaved before her time with two children, set up this ‘monumentum’ for her most beloved husband, in the year of Christian salvation 1719.

(Brass tablet below Thomas Clapham) At the base of this column are placed the ashes of JANE CLAPHAM, beautiful in features, of good disposition and of easy character, the little girl of Thomas Clapham, M.A. Vicar of Bradford, Lecturer of the Church and Master of the Public School. Little daughter of his wife Anna. Nola October 6th in the 1705 Renata died November 15th year the same Denata March 22nd 1708 Born in Autumn, she the first passed away in truth

In his notes, Blackburn quotes from William Scruton’s The Parish Church in ‘Pen and Pencil Pictures of Old Bradford’, [1889] pp23 – 38.

“… that many of these [memorials] in exceeding bad taste, have been stowed away in the dark western tower where their inscriptions can be neither seen nor read.”

However, since Blackburn’s day there has been a Clean Air Act which removed smog and dirt from the atmosphere, stone and glass have been cleaned and the ‘dark western tower’ is not so dark.

As ever, an actual visit is recommended.

242 HELP WITH ADOBE READER

(The usefulness of the following advice will depend on the version of Adobe Reader on your computer.)

1. Searching for data in Adobe Reader There are in fact two ways to locate particular words, or characters, in Adobe Reader. One is called FIND, the other is called SEARCH.

FIND In Adobe Reader version 8 and later, part of the display has a Find box (a rectangular box in which the word Find is showing). You can bring up the Find box by clicking Find in the Edit menu, or by typing the shortcut CRTL+F (i.e. press and hold the CTRL key and, whilst holding it down, press the F key). Once you have typed in the required word and pressed ENTER the finding process will start and it will stop temporarily at the first location of the word. The small Find window should have both right pointing and left pointing arrows, or buttons labeled Previous and Next take you to the next, or previous, occurrence of the word. Adjacent to the Find box you may see the ▼ symbol, and clicking this will give several options – see OPTIONS below. If the Adobe Reader you are using is earlier than version 8, then use the CRTL+F method described below. This facility to find any character is available in almost any electronic document - PDF files, MS Word docs, emails, in fact any file containing text. To access it press. This usually opens a small window in which you can type the word you are looking for. Press ENTER and the system will follow the same sequence as above.

SEARCH The Search facility is much more comprehensive than the Find facility and creates a list of all the locations of the word you are looking for. It also has several options available – see OPTIONS below. To bring up the Search facility, click the binoculars in the Tool Bar at the top of the Adobe Reader window. If the binoculars are not there, press SHIFT+CTRL+F to bring up the Search facility window. If the binoculars are not in the Tool Bar you can put them there in later versions. You may right click in an empty area of the Tool Bar, then

i) click on Show edit tools from menu ii) click on Binocular Tool to place the icon into the Tool Bar.

OPTIONS The most useful options are “Whole words only” and “Case-Sensitive”. The example below shows the results of using these when you have typed in the word Smith (note the initial capital letter followed by lower case in this example) Options selected: None Case-Sensitive Whole words only Case-Sensitive & Whole words only Words located: Blacksmith, Smith, smith, Smithies, (etc.), Smith, Smithies, (etc.) Smith, smith, SMITH Smith BLACKSMITH, SMITH, SMITHIES, (etc.)

Wild cards (i.e. the use of * to indicate any multiple characters, or ? to indicate a single character) are not allowed. So you cannot search for JO* in the hope of finding JOHN, JONATHAN, JOSEPH, etc., or search for ?AILOR in the hope of finding SAILOR or TAILOR. In fact, searching for JO or AILOR without the “Whole words only” option would find these permutations. If you type, say, MARY ANN GREGSON into the Find or Search facility, you will not find her if the data is MARY ANN WIFE OF GEORGE GREGSON. The reason the search failed is because the finding aid is looking for the characters in the exact sequence you typed. Hence, as far as memorial inscriptions are concerned, you must think what the various combinations could be, and by reading some of the inscriptions you will become familiar with the variations. If you are trying to locate a person it is recommended that you carry out a search for the surname by itself.

2. Bookmarks

Bookmarks have been created on this CD so that you can go to specific points of interest by clicking an item in the list in the Bookmark Panel on the left side of the screen. If the Bookmark Panel is not visible, pressing the F4 key should reveal it. Pressing the F4 key again will hide it. Alternatively, clicking the vertical Bookmarks tab on the left hand side of the Adobe Reader screen will either reveal the Bookmarks or hide them. If you wish to make the main text of the body of the CD larger to just fill the screen you may find it convenient to hide the Bookmark Panel as above.

3. Printing pages To print a particular page click the printer icon at the top of the Adobe Reader window, or press CTRL+P (i.e. press and hold the CTRL key and, whilst holding it down, press the P key). In the Print window which opens the following settings are recommended:- i. Under Print Range select Current page (otherwise you could be printing 100s of sheets of paper), and ii. Under Page Handling select both Fit to Printer Margins and also Choose Paper Source by PDF Page size.

4. Enlarging text or images Adobe Reader allows you to adjust the size of the image on your screen for the full file, by enlarging or shrinking with the + or – buttons in the Tool Bar near the top of the screen, or specifying a particular magnification in the zoom window in the Tool Bar. Adobe Reader also has a facility called the “loupe magnifying glass” which enables small sections of a page in the PDF file to be enlarged temporarily for closer examination. To install a loupe magnifying glass icon on the toolbar at the top of the Adobe Reader screen do the following. i) Click View and select Zoom ii) From the list which appears click Loupe Tool

You should now see that the loupe tool has been added to the other icons on the toolbar. If the loupe tool does not appear in the toolbar, in later versions you may also right click in an empty area of the Tool Bar, then i) click on Show select and zoom tools from menu ii) click on Loupe Tool to place the icon into the Tool Bar. When you want to use the loupe tool, click the icon. This will change the mouse pointer into a small square box. Click anywhere in the PDF file where you want to enlarge the original, and a Loupe Tool window with an enlarged version, which can be adjusted from 100% to 6,400% enlargement, will appear. By holding down the left mouse button you can move the mouse to any part of the page and the enlarged image will follow. To cancel the process, first press the Esc key – this will restore the mouse pointer – and then close the Loupe Tool window by clicking X as normal.

5. General Advice If you are new to Adobe Reader the Help within the program is quite comprehensive and well worth trying. Just press the F1 key to access Help.
