1 LONDON RECORDS These consist of Izmir church registers deposited by Chaplains in 1995-8 to the Guildhall Library (subsequently transferred to the London Metropolitan Archives) for safe keep, as well as consular and diplomatic records kept in the Public Records office in Kew, London. It was considered important to review and transcribe at least part of the registers kept in Lon- don, to allow wider access to readers in different countries and help build a picture of the his- tory and development of the Levantine communities by cross referencing with other sources, including testimonies. The Metropolitan Archives: Document 1 (Ms 29744A) – Loose leaf William Barker, son of Thomas & Sarah Barker of Bakewell in Derbyshire, born 31th Jan 1739, was married in Smyrna to Thora Robin daughter of Giovanni Batista & Katerina Robin (French subjects) born in Smyrna August 1739, by the Lutheran minister Christophoro Guighilma Ludecke, according to the rites of the church of England, the 16th Oct 1763. Children: Sarah / Thomas (x) / William / Gratia / John / Robert / George, 1764-1774 Some christened by Dutch minister B.Keun Some christened by English minister B.Clendon Flora the wife of William Barker died 16 Dec 1775 1776 remarried Dutch subject Elizabeth Mary Schnell who was born in Smyrna 1760, married by B.Keun. Children: Arthur Francis (x) / Richard / Marianna / James (x) / Mary / Edward / Peter (x) / Francis (x) / Frederick / Louisa / Samuel / Henry Richards / Benjamin, 1777-1797 Sworn to the truth of above, signed before me 1806 Also signed by André Slaars (resident 50 years), Robert Wilkinson (resident 34 years). Done due to the ‘Consularian house fire’ 1797. Notes: 1- It was obviously considered important to register William Barker’s marriages and children following the destruction of records in the consulate (arson1f-p.39) fire. This demonstrates his eminence in the community at the time. 2- The x marks placed by some of the children I took to indicate they were already deceased. Despite this mortality, Mr Barker was able to sire 15 children, a remarkable number even for that time. Similar productivity amongst early Levantines ensured the future viability and spread of the community. 3- Assuming Robert Wilkinson is the same as that buried in Buca, he came to Izmir in 1772, aged 21, and the tombstone informs us he was the Consul for Denmark, Sweden and US. As- suming Andre Slaars is his name sake buried and marked as a merchant in the Dutch ceme- tery, he came to Izmir in 1756 aged 17. 4- We are informed by Donald Simpson’s report that William Barker died the year the Le- vant ‘Factory’ was dissolved, 1825, and that he was the oldest member of the company which he joined in 1759. Thus from calculating we know he joined the company aged 20 and died aged 86. His tomb is not at Buca since this is before that cemetery was established, as is likely to have been in the now non-existent ‘Caravan bridge’ cemetery.

  • Portsmouth Dockyard in the Twentieth Century1

    Portsmouth Dockyard in the Twentieth Century1

    PART THREE PORTSMOUTH DOCKYARD IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY1 3.1 INTRODUCTION The twentieth century topography of Portsmouth Dockyard can be related first to the geology and geography of Portsea Island and secondly to the technological development of warships and their need for appropriately sized and furnished docks and basins. In 2013, Portsmouth Naval Base covered 300 acres of land, with 62 acres of basin, 17 dry docks and locks, 900 buildings and 3 miles of waterfront (Bannister, 10 June 2013a). The Portsmouth Naval Base Property Trust (Heritage Area) footprint is 11.25 acres (4.56 hectares) which equates to 4.23% of the land area of the Naval Base or 3.5% of the total Naval Base footprint including the Basins (Duncan, 2013). From 8 or 9 acres in 1520–40 (Oppenheim, 1988, pp. 88-9), the dockyard was increased to 10 acres in 1658, to 95 acres in 1790, and gained 20 acres in 1843 for the steam basin and 180 acres by 1865 for the 1867 extension (Colson, 1881, p. 118). Surveyor Sir Baldwin Wake Walker warned the Admiralty in 1855 and again in 1858 that the harbour mouth needed dredging, as those [ships] of the largest Class could not in the present state of its Channel go out of Harbour, even in the event of a Blockade, in a condition to meet the Enemy, inasmuch as the insufficiency of Water renders it impossible for them to go out of Harbour with all their Guns, Coals, Ammunition and Stores on board. He noted further in 1858 that the harbour itself “is so blocked up by mud that there is barely sufficient space to moor the comparatively small Force at present there,” urging annual dredging to allow the larger current ships to moor there.

  • The Way to Otranto: Gothic Elements

    The Way to Otranto: Gothic Elements

    THE WAY TO OTRANTO: GOTHIC ELEMENTS IN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY ENGLISH POETRY, 1717-1762 Vahe Saraoorian A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 1970 ii ABSTRACT Although full-length studies have been written about the Gothic novel, no one has undertaken a similar study of poetry, which, if it may not be called "Gothic," surely contains Gothic elements. By examining Gothic elements in eighteenth-century poetry, we can trace through it the background to Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto, the first Gothic novel. The evolutionary aspect of the term "Gothic" itself in eighteenth-century criticism was pronounced, yet its various meanings were often related. To the early graveyard poets it was generally associated with the barbarous and uncouth, but to Walpole, writing in the second half of the century, the Gothic was also a source of inspiration and enlightenment. Nevertheless, the Gothic was most frequently associated with the supernatural. Gothic elements were used in the work of the leading eighteenth-century poets. Though an age not often thought remark­ able for its poetic expression, it was an age which clearly exploited the taste for Gothicism, Alexander Pope, Thomas Parnell, Edward Young, Robert Blair, Thomas and Joseph Warton, William Collins, Thomas Gray, and James Macpherson, the nine poets studied, all expressed notes of Gothicism in their poetry. Each poet con­ tributed to the rising taste for Gothicism. Alexander Pope, whose influence on Walpole was considerable, was the first poet of significance in the eighteenth century to write a "Gothic" poem.

    A SEVENTEENTH CENTURY BAPTIST VIEW OF MINISTRY AS SEEN IN THREE FUNERAL SERMONS BY JOHN PIGGOTT __________________ A Paper Presented to Dr. Michael A.G. Haykin The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary __________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for 28420 __________________ by G. Stephen Weaver, Jr. 3630 Antioch Church Rd. W. / Lenoir City, TN 37772 August 14, 2006 A SEVENTEENTH CENTURY BAPTIST VIEW OF MINISTRY AS SEEN IN THREE FUNERAL SERMONS BY JOHN PIGGOTT In the course of three months in the year 1702, there died three of the most prominent Particular Baptist pastors in London.1 These men were William Collins, Thomas Harrison and Hercules Collins. Their deaths signaled the end of a most eventful seventeenth century in Baptist life in England marked by both persecution and progress. All three of their funeral sermons were preached by the same man, a young Baptist minister by the name of John Piggott (d. 1713). In these funeral sermons preached to the deceased ministers’ respective churches, a specific view of ministry can be detected. While all three of these sermons were preached between August and November of the year 1702, they actually provide a glimpse of the prevalent view of ministry among Particular Baptists in London during the mid to late seventeenth century. Biographical Sketches In order to better understand the significance of the view of ministry expressed in the funeral sermons of John Piggott which testify of the lives and ministries of Thomas Harrison, Hercules Collins and William Collins, a brief biographical sketch of each of these four individuals will be drawn.

His first and best-known novel, Ince Memed, won the Turkish highest literary prize “Varlık.” In 1961, Edouard Roditi translated Yaşar Kemal’s epic novel, Ince Memed under the English title Memed, My Hawk, and it is still in print today. Yaşar Kemal’s novel gained popularity and earned literary fame outside of Turkey. As Barry Tharaud stated in his article, “Death, Childhood and Primal Fear in Yaşar Kemal’s The Wind from the Plain”, Yaşar Kemal is one of the great living authors of world literature. The Undying Grass is the third novel The Wind from the Plain trilogy and it was published in 1968, the concluding volume of the last part's translation appeared in 1969, 1974 and, 1977. The Undying Grass is Yaşar Kemal's eight book of fiction to become available in English. The representation of Kemal's style in the English translation of his novels is explicitly formed by the constancy indicated, translators; Thilda Kemal, Edouard Roditi and, Margeret E.

    Lt. John Poulton Williams, RN (1784-1810) The life and career of a Naval Officer John Poulton Williams a Naval Officer, who fought at the Battle of Trafalgar, was from HM Royal Docks in Plymouth, Devon. Born on 8 April 1784 to John Hoyle Williams, Master Shipwright, and his wife Elizabeth. The eldest of their three sons, all of whom served HM Royal Navy as officers. John was just eight years old when he first joined HMS Cumberland as a Captain’s servant. Through the records we will follow his career and the lives of his family. FAMILY BACKGROUND John grew up in the ancient manor of Stoke Damerel which incorporated HM Dockyard. Devonport began with a single stone dock in 1691 to receive His Majesty's ships of war. The workmen tired of their daily trek from Plymouth demanded houses be built within walking distance of the Dockyard and this is how the township evolved and became known as Plymouth Dock. By 1820, with the addition of army barracks and surrounded with defensive fortifications the residents demanded their own identity. On 1st January 1824, with Royal approval, the town was renamed Devonport, the port of Devon. In 1914 it was incorporated into the City of Plymouth. John’s father, John Hoyle Williams (1733 - 1816) of Plymouth Dock, is described in apprenticeship records as a Master Shipwright. By the second half of 18th century some 60% or more of all craftsman shipwrights in Great Britain were Crown employees in the Royal Dockyards of Deptford, Woolwich, Sheerness, Chatham, Portsmouth, and Plymouth.
