  • Mark Pack Submitted for the Degree of Dphil York University History Department June1995 Appendix 1: Borough Classifications
    Aspects of the English electoral system 1800-50, with special reference to Yorkshire. Volume 2 of 2 Mark Pack submitted for the degree of DPhil York University History Department June1995 Appendix 1: Borough classifications ' There are several existing classifications of boroughs by franchise type. I have preferred to construct my own as there are clear problems with the existing classifications, such as inconsistencies and some errors (e.g. see Malton below). In this context, it is more satisfying to delve into the issue, rather than simply pick one of the existing classifications off the shelf. This is particularly so given the existence of a much under-used source of evidence: post-1832 electoral registers (or sources that contain information about them). Under certain conditions pre-1832 franchises were allowed to continue after 1832. As electoral registers listed what qualifications people had registered under, post-1832 registers can reveal the pre-1832 franchise. That at least is the theory; there are some complicating factors. First, the description in an electoral register may be less than a complete description of the pre-1832 franchise. For example, if a register says "freemen" one does not know if there had been additional requirements, such as having to be resident. Second, not all pre-1832 constituencies survived, and so there are no electoral registers for these. Third, compilers of electoral registers may have got the pre-1832 franchise wrong. This is unlikely as when the first registers were being drawn up in the 1830s there was a wealth of local and verbal knowledge to consult.

  • J Surveys 1820-32 IX Eng. Ref.Legislation.Indd
    IX. The English Reform Legislation, I83I-I832 Philip Salmon Between and three different sets of bills aimed at reforming the English representative system were considered by Parliament.1 Just over fi fteen months after the introduction of the fi rst measure a fi nal settlement reached the statute book.2 The original proposals, which Lord Grey asked a ‘committee of four’ to draw up on becoming prime minister, bore increasingly little resemblance to the subsequent bills, both in terms of detail and a number of leading principles.3 Drawing on the biographies and constituency entries in these volumes, this section traces the devel- opment of the Grey ministry’s reform legislation as it made its tortuous passage through the Commons, assessing how the bill evolved, at whose instigation, and with what results. The Borough Franchise One of the most challenging problems facing the ministry was the issue of how to deal with the English borough franchises. Both at cabinet level and in the Commons, the question of what new voting rights should be introduced and which former qual- ifi cations should be kept (if any) was fi ercely debated. The scheme eventually agreed upon by ministers, and announced by Lord John Russell on Mar. , proposed to enfranchise all £ householders (occupiers of property with a yearly rental value of at least £), provided they were resident ratepayers. All other franchises were to be abolished, in what amounted to a drastic simplifi cation of borough qualifi ca- tions, although existing electors who were resident would be allowed to retain their privileges for the rest of their lives, leading to ‘grandfathered’ electoral rights for an ageing group of voters.

  • THE HISTORY of PARLIAMENT TRUST Review of Activities in The
    THE HISTORY OF PARLIAMENT TRUST Review of activities in the year 2009-10 Annual review - 1 - Editorial Board Oct 2010 Objectives and Activities of the History of Parliament Trust The History of Parliament is a major academic project to create a scholarly reference work describing the members, constituencies and activities of the Parliament of England and the United Kingdom. The volumes either published or in preparation cover the House of Commons from 1386 to 1868 and the House of Lords from 1660 to 1832. They are widely regarded as an unparalleled source for British political, social and local history. The volumes consist of detailed studies of elections and electoral politics in each constituency, and of closely researched accounts of the lives of everyone who was elected to Parliament in the period, together with surveys drawing out the themes and discoveries of the research and adding information on the operation of Parliament as an institution. Twenty-eight volumes covering eight periods have already been published. They deal with 1386-1421, 1509-1558, 1558-1603, 1660-1690, 1690-1715, 1715-1754, 1754-1790 and 1790- 1820: in all about 20 million words, 20,000 pages, 17,000 biographies, covering 281 years of parliamentary history. With the exception of the 1690-1715 volumes published in 2002, the other twenty-three volumes with revisions and additional material were reissued in 1998 as a CD-ROM in collaboration with Cambridge University Press. The History’s staff of professional historians is currently researching the House of Commons in the periods: 1422-1504, 1604-1629, 1640-1660, 1820-1832 and 1832-1868.
