In making investigations of this family among the published genealogies of the United States I found it was one of the comparatively large families whose name appeared often in early records but one for whom no one person had ever prepared a complete report. A number of New England genealogical correspondents have stated that the history of the Rhode IslaDd Kenyons was a riddle no one had dared to start unraveling, due to the many contradictions in published references and to numer­ ous intermarriages among themselves.

  • Comments on Chadderton Partnership Neighbourhood Area and Forum Application for the Council's Response to the Key Issues Rais
    Comments on Chadderton Partnership Neighbourhood Area and forum application For the council’s response to the key issues raised please see ‘Issues raised in relation to the Chadderton Partnership Neighbourhood Forum and Chadderton Neighbourhood area applications and Oldham Council’s response’ Full Name Organisation Application Comment Details that the comment relates to A Cadman Both I would like to formally object to the Chadderton Partnership. I feel that they have too many close ties to a political party to be objective and independent from government/ council agendas. After reading the constitution available of the Oldham.gov website, I feel that there is a large focus on development and I have grave concerns about further developments on greenbelt land within the Chadderton area. Furthermore I do not believe that one group can accurately represent a diverse population of 40,000+ residents. A neighbourhood group needs to be able to listen and respond to the residents for which is it representing. The Chadderton Partnership have not tried to community with residents of Chadderton about what their proposals are, and I fear that this is because they do not have their best interests at heart. A Cummings Both I would like to register my opposition to the Chadderton Partnership and to vote against the registration of the Focus Group (Neighbourhood Forum) with Oldham Council and the designation of the three Chadderton wards for consultation. This would not be appropriate nor is it in keeping with guidance. I feel that this would stop local residents from having their own legitimate local forums and independent voices.

  • “We Exist to Receive and Share the Love of God”
    “We exist to receive and share the love of God” Thank you to everyone for your support and prayers as I continue on this physical journey of 309 miles and we spiritually journey together in prayer to Lindisfarne. I have been very grateful for the prayerful support of those whose holy sites I have visited this week. At the end of last week I had physically walked to and prayed for Holy Trinity Waterhead, St Barnabas, St Thomas’ Moorside, Holy Trinity Shaw, St James East Crompton, Sr Saviours East Crompton, St Marys High Crompton, Christ Church Friezland, St Anne’s Lydgate, St Mary’s Greenfield, Kiln Green Mission Church, Holy Trinity Dobcross, St Thomas’ Delph and Christ Church Denshaw – all in the Oldham East Deanery - .and spiritually I arrived St Hilda’s Priory after walking 21.02 miles this week and 139.2 mile since Pentecost. As the new week begins…I spiritually I set off walking towards Whitby Abbey 1.29 miles walk away. 21.62 walked this week I have walked a total of 160.82 miles. I have now begin walking the St Hild Way. I hope that you will continue to walk with me on this spiritual pilgrimage and that you will make use of this booklet in your prayer over the coming week. I had said to the Sisters at St Hilda’s Priory that I would be virtually resting with them for a couple of days. On Sunday I received an e-mail from Sr Jocelyn saying they had enjoyed my virtual stay and invited me to prayer and lunch! So my virtual visit to St Hilda’s Priory ended with midday prayer in their beautiful new chapel and then with gammon, vegetables

  • The Ordination of Priests
    The Ordination of Priests The Bishop of Manchester Manchester Cathedral The Bishop of Bolton Bolton Parish Church The Bishop of Middleton Oldham Parish Church Sunday 4 October 2020 Welcome to Manchester Cathedral Ordinations during the pandemic Ordinations are times of great joy, not only for those being ordained, but for the whole Church giving thanks to God for the ministers he has called. That joy is undiminished this year, but sadly cannot be shared by a large congregation. Government regulations, rightly concerned to protect everyone’s health, limit attendance to 30. Those present at the service are therefore representative of many others who are today praying God’s blessing upon those made priest, and who look forward with expectation to their new ministries. It is not only numbers which are limited in order for today’s service to be “covid secure”. For instance, there can be no singing. Those attending are also required to observe the following: • face masks are to be worn at all times (except when receiving Communion); • hand sanitiser is made available to be used on arrival and departure; • the congregation must remain seated in their allocated places; • all direct interaction is to be avoided with those not in your household or bubble, maintaining a two-metre distance; • Communion will be distributed in one kind (i.e. bread alone): hand sanitiser will be available, and must be used should there be accidental contact with the hand of the administer of Communion • the congregation should leave directly after the service, maintaining a two-metre distance and without interacting with others inside or outside, taking this order of service with them.

  • The Machinery of Local Policing Delivery
    Is the machinery of local policing delivery seen as fit for purpose by practitioners and community members to anticipate and mitigate the risk of harmful radicalisation at street level? Submitted by James Gale to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by research in Politics, February 2012 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgment. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. 1 ABSTRACT Is the machinery of local policing delivery seen as fit for purpose by practitioners and community members to anticipate and mitigate the risk of harmful radicalisation at street level? This thesis achieves four objectives. Firstly, it adds to the existing knowledge of radicalisation: it discusses the concept, and contextualises it within other forms of social phenomena such as drug-related crime. Secondly, it proposes a menu of indicators which predict or forewarn of the risk of radicalisation. Thirdly, it establishes perceptions of success at street level of modern local policing methods, namely Neighbourhood Policing and the National Intelligence Model, at identifying risk. Fourthly, it establishes a ‘toolkit’ of options which might be used by practitioners to ‘switch-off’ the radicalisation process. I argue that urban unrest, radicalisation and terrorism share common roots, with a number of key social pre-conditions existing prior to their onset: a sense of injustice, a lack of political representation, declining perceptions of legitimacy in state authorities, relative deprivation, (which may include unemployment, and a gap between expectation and achievement), discrimination and high levels of drug related crime, and I thus propose a theoretical ladder of escalation.

  • Conservation Area May 2010
    DRAFT Development Brief Site within “The Old Town Hall, Chadderton” Conservation Area May 2010 1 Introduction 1.1 Oldham Council and Greater Manchester Police have prepared this brief to promote a key site within Chadderton Town Centre. The site comprises the former library, Police Station and swimming pool/sports centre. The buildings occupy a primary frontage along Middleton Road and within Chadderton Town Centre. They also form key elements within the Old Town Hall Chadderton Conservation Area, which represents an important symbol of the town’s significance at the turn of the 20th Century. 1.2 An earlier feasibility study has identified the library of outstanding quality both internally and externally. It is important both historically and architecturally and makes a positive contribution to the Conservation Area. The police station’s Victoria Street elevation is of good architectural quality, though the interior is of low architectural interest. Nevertheless, the building provides a positive contribution to the conservation area and complements the adjacent library. With its aesthetic and constructional qualities, as well as its social and historical interest, its retention, at least in part, is a key consideration. The swimming pool is built in an art deco style and is significant insofar as its interior remains intact. Externally, apart from the entrance, the architectural composition and character of the building is poor. The building therefore makes a neutral contribution to the conservation area. It also has serious structural problems. If an appropriate use cannot be identified, redevelopment of the site may be a consideration. 1.3 Against this background, the aim of the brief is to identify a developer or consortium of developers, able to deliver a high quality mixed use development, which contributes to the mix and vitality of the town centre and takes full account of the historic value of the buildings, the strong potential for their re-use and the contribution that they make to the conservation area, historically, socially and architecturally.
