Just before the pandemic struck, as we submitted our bid for a grant to finance our project ‘Managing Archives’, we felt after a lot of hard work that we could see light at the end of our tunnel. Unfortunately, as you know, it turned out to be a train coming in the opposite direction. Though something of a shock at the time, we are now philosophical about this. The N.H.L. Fund felt that they should cancel all current applications in order to conserve resources for dealing with the crisis then facing existing projects. None of this reflected badly on our submission and there are valuable results from it that, given the chance, we can return to.

  • Bewleys of Cumberland
    THE BEWLEYS OF CUMBERLAND AND THEIR IRISH AND OTHER DESCENDANTS WITH FULL PEDIGREES OF THE FAMILY FROM 1332 TO THE PRESENT DAY BY SIR EDMUND THOMAS BEWLEY M.A., LL.D. ILLUSTRATED DUBLIN WILLIAM McGEE, 18, NASSAU STREET 1902 ARMS OF THE BEWLEYS OF CUMBERLAND as confirmed to Sir Edmund Thomas Bewley by Ulster King of Arms. “THE expansion and extension of genealogical study is a very remarkable feature of our own times. Men are apparently awaking to the fact there are other families besides those described in the peerage that those families have their records, played their part in history furnished the bone and sinew of national action, and left traces behind them which it behoves their descendants to search out and keep in remembrance. There is nothing in this that need be stigmatised as vain and foolish; it is a very natural instinct, and it appears to be one of the ways in which a general interest in national history may be expected to grow. It is an increasing pursuit both in America and England, and certainly helps, by the promotion of careful investigation, and by the publication of recondite memorials, the more complete adjustment of personal and local details.” STUBBS’ Lectures on Medieval and Modern History. Printed at the Dublin University Press By Ponsonby & Weldrick PREFACE f any apology is needed for the present work, it will be Ifound, I think, in the extract from the late Bishop Stubbs’ Oxford Lectures given on a previous page. From the Pedigrees at the end of the book it will be seen that the descendants of the Bewleys of Cumberland are now scattered through England, Ireland, India, the British Colonies, and the United States of America ; and it is not only natural but right that some effort should be made to collect and preserve the records of their ancestors, and to show the evidence by which descent from them can be traced.

  • TCW- Carlisle-St Bees
    Through the Carriage Window Carlisle to St Bees Carlisle Carlisle Citadel Station, currently in the throes of a £14m repair programme, was built in 1847 for a consort- ium of six (later seven) separate railway companies. One of the smaller partner companies was the Maryport & Carlisle Railway whose main line we now take. The site of its first operations in the city is evidenced on the right by the sign reading “Maryport & Carlisle Goods & Coal Depot”. The M&CR’s first terminus station was at Crown Street. As we depart we pass on the right the stark concrete Carlisle Power signalling centre, which since 1973 controls all rail operations in and around Carlisle. To the left the line to Newcastle and Leeds drops away as our line turns sharply westward leaving the main line heading south to Preston. We then cross over the goods lines built to avoid the station and take up a south-westerly course to follow the valley of the River Caldew. The vacant land on our left was the site of the Currock engine depot of the Glasgow & South Western Railway and later became the Carlisle goods wagon repair works. Cummersdale The fabric print works of Stead McAlpin is seen on the right across the river. Here a station was provided in 1858 by the M&CR but closed in 1951 along with several other lightly-used stops on the line. The station was close to Carlisle racecourse and after closure continued to see occasional use on race days. We cross the River Caldew and the Cumbria Way footpath on Cummersdale viaduct.
