The county was contested during the First Civil War of 1642-6 and also saw armed conflict on a smaller scale during the Second Civil War of 1648. This detailed study provides a comprehensive bipartisan analysis of military endeavour, in terms of organisation and of the engagements fought. Drawing on numerous primary sources, it explores: leadership and administration; recruitment and the armed forces; military finance; supply and logistics; and the nature and conduct of the fighting.

  • Richard More – Another of My Ancestors Who Came to America on the Mayflower
    Chapter 48 Richard More – Another of My Ancestors Who Came to America on the Mayflower [Originally written 25 June 2020] Introduction I recently have started using the Geni.com website for building my family tree. The folks at Geni.com have taken a unique approach to building a family tree – it is what could be called the “World Family Tree”. Unlike Ancestry.com, where everyone has their own complete family tree, Geni.com is having its users collaboratively build just a single family tree that everyone is a part of. On Ancestry.com, there can be one thousand or more duplicate entries for the same person – and they often have conflicting information. On Geni.com, there should only be one entry on the entire website for any given person. Individual users on Geni.com can add one of their ancestral lines until it connects with a person already in the “World Family Tree”. And then their line immediately becomes part of this enormous family tree. I believe that there now are over 150 million people in the “World Family Tree” on Geni.com. Here is the first part of my pedigree on Geni.com: I should emphasize that I didn’t have to add all these people myself. Most all of them were already in the “World Family Tree”. For example, here is the entry for my great-grandmother Hannah Mariah Miller: Hannah Mariah Miller was added by Eliyahu Neiman. I have no idea who this person is – all I know is that this entry was already there when I started using Geni.com.

  • RICHARD MORE of the MAYFLOWER Which Child Of
    RICHARD MORE OF THE MAYFLOWER Among those on board the ship Mayflower when it finally arrived in New England in November, 1620 was Pilgrim Richard More. In England, and prior to the Mayflower’s departure, Richard’s parents, Samuel and Katherine More, had had a bitter divorce. Samuel More did not believe the children were his offspring and sent all four of them to the New World on the Mayflower in the care of others. Richard traveled with his sister Elinor, born in 1612, who was sent under the care of Edward Winslow; his brother Jasper, born in 1613, who was cared for by John Carver; and his sister Mary, born in 1616, who was assigned to William Brewster. Richard, born in 1614 and baptized in Shipton, Shropshire, England on 13 November 1614, was also assigned to Brewster. Of the four More children, Richard was the only one to have survived that first winter. He married Christian (Hunter) on 20 October 1636 at Plymouth. Christian was born in 1615 and died in 1675. He married secondly to Jane Crumpton by 1678. She died on 5/8 October 1686. Richard thrived in the New World and went on to live a very full life. He became a well-known sea captain of the ship Friendship in Salem. And as such, he helped deliver supplies to various colonies which were vital to their survival, travelled over Atlantic and West Indies trade routes and fought in various early naval sea battles. In his fifty years as a mariner, Richard never lost a vessel, nor had any sailor brought charges against him.

  • Experiences of Illegitimacy in England, 1660-1834
    Experiences of Illegitimacy in England, 1660-1834 Kate Louise Gibson A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of History March 2018 Thesis Summary This thesis examines attitudes towards individuals who were born illegitimate in England between the Restoration in 1660 and the New Poor Law of 1834. It explores the impact of illegitimacy on individuals' experiences of family and social life, marriage and occupational opportunities, and sense of identity. This thesis demonstrates that illegitimacy did have a negative impact, but that this was not absolute. The stigma of illegitimacy operated along a spectrum, varying according to the type of parental relationship, the child's gender and, most importantly, the family's socio-economic status. Socio-economic status became more significant as an arbiter of attitudes towards the end of the period. This project uses a range of qualitative evidence - correspondence, life-writing, poor law records, novels, legal and religious tracts, and newspapers - to examine the impact of illegitimacy across the entire life-cycle, moving away from previous historiographical emphasis on unmarried parenthood, birth and infancy. This approach adds nuance to a field dominated by poor law and Foundling Hospital evidence, and prioritises material written by illegitimate individuals themselves. This thesis also has resonance for historical understanding of wider aspects of long- eighteenth-century society, such as the nature of parenthood, family, gender, or emotion, and the operation of systems of classification and 'othering'. This thesis demonstrates that definitions of parenthood and family were flexible enough to include illegitimate relationships.

    1 THE BASTARDS OF THE MAYFLOWER RICHARD MORE 1583 HDT WHAT? INDEX CAPTAIN RICHARD MORE CAPTAIN RICHARD MORE July 25, day: Jacob Blakeway was baptized in Stanton Long Parish, just south of Shipton in Shropshire. 1588 Catharine More was born. The Mores of Shipton in Shropshire, England prided themselves that they were directly descended from King Malcolm III of Scotland (1058-1093), King Edward I of England, and King Henry II of England (died 1189). As early as the 12th Century, the family had been of recognized local importance on a moor near the Welsh border. By the 13th Century, the family held four manor houses on this moor and the head of the family as a constable of the crown of England was pledged to provide 200 soldiers and “carry in his own two hands” the English banner against the Welsh. By the 15th Century the timber-and- plaster family home near Shipton was being referred to as Larden Hall. The occupant of Larden Hall was termed the Lord of Larden. 1591 Samuel More was born. The Mores of Linley in Shropshire, England prided themselves that they were directly descended from King Malcolm III of Scotland (1058-1093), King Edward I of England, and King Henry II of England (died 1189).
