General Notes: Features in the painting of The Anti-Slavery Society Convention, 1840, by Benjamin Robert Haydon -------------------------------------------------------------- Knight, Anne (1786– 1862), slavery abolitionist and campaigner for women's rights, was born on 2 November 1786 at Chelmsford, Essex, the third of the eight children of William Knight (1756– 1814), wholesale grocer, and his wife, Priscilla, née Allen (1753– 1829). Her mother was first cousin to the philanthropist William Allen, while she herself was first cousin to the chemist William Allen Miller. Her younger sister Maria (1791– 1870) married in 1814 the abolitionist John Candler (1787– 1869) and with him travelled to the West Indies and United States in the anti-slavery cause; they were for some years (1842– 6) superintendents of The Retreat, York, the Quaker mental hospital founded by William Tuke. In 1824, having by then a good knowledge of French and German, Anne Knight travelled on the continent with a group of fellow Quakers, combining sightseeing with religious and philanthropic concerns. From her base in the Chelmsford Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society she was deeply involved with the anti-slavery movement, travelling frequently to London and working with Thomas Clarkson, Joseph Sturge, Richard and Hannah Webb, and Elizabeth Pease (later Nichol). During the 1830s she returned several times to France in the same cause, in 1834 undertaking a speaking tour. The 1840 World's Anti-Slavery Convention in London gave her the opportunity to meet such American abolitionists as William Lloyd Garrison, Wendell Phillips, and Lucretia Mott. The movement for women's suffrage in Britain has been dated from the exclusion of women from the floor of this conference, for it drew women's attention to their marginal status within the movement, and highlighted the limitations placed on their capacity to act in the public sphere. In July 1848 the first women's rights convention in the United States was held at Seneca Falls, New York. The previous year an anonymous leaflet was issued in Britain claiming that 'Never will the nations of the earth be well governed, until both sexes, as well as all parties, are fully represented and have an influence, a voice, and a hand in the enactment and administration of the laws'. It has been persuasively argued that the author was Anne Knight. Certainly from the 1840s she had been writing frequent letters (she was a voluminous correspondent) to American abolitionists, including Angelina Grimké, and she was capable of sharp rejoinders to Chartists who suggested that the class struggle took precedence over that for women's rights. Although Knight was in many ways typical of nonconformist women abolitionists, her views were more radical than many: a sympathizer with Chartism, she was interested in the British and French utopian socialist movements, maintained links with the White Quakers in Ireland, and in the 1840s supported the radical Garrisonian wing of the American abolition movement. Her support for women's rights led her in 1851 to be involved in forming the first organization for women's suffrage in Britain, the Sheffield Female Reform Association. In 1847 or 1848 Anne Knight left Chelmsford for Paris and, after living there enthusiastically (despite her Quaker upbringing) through the year of revolutions, she was at the international peace conference in Paris in 1849. Lucretia Mott described her in the 1840s as 'a singular looking woman— very pleasant and polite' (F. B. Tolles, ed., Slavery and 'the Woman Question', 1952, 29). In the late 1850s Anne Knight moved to Waldersbach, a village in the Vosges, south-west of Strasbourg. This had been the home of the pastor Jean-Frédéric Oberlin (1740– 1820), whose philanthropic work she revered. Here she lived for the last few years of her life, lodging with Oberlin's grandson, and died there after a short illness on 4 November 1862. Researches into Anne Knight's life have been hindered by persistent confusion of her with another Anne Knight [née Waspe] (1792– 1860), children's writer. This Anne Knight was born at Woodbridge, Suffolk, on 28 October 1792, the eldest of the eight children of Jonathan Waspe (1756?– 1818), a leather-cutter, and his wife, Phebe, née Gibbs (1761– 1851). She married in 1818 her first cousin and fellow Quaker James Knight (1794– 1820) of Southwark. After her husband's early death, she returned to Woodbridge, where by 1826 she was keeping a school.

  • Cemetery Records
    RESEARCH GUIDE Cemetery Records Research Guide 5: Cemetery Records CONTENTS Introduction Main cemetery records held at LMA Bunhill Fields (CLC/271) New Bunhill Fields, Islington (B/NBF) The City of London Cemetery, Little Ilford (CLA/052) The City of London and Tower Hamlets Cemetery (CTHC) Other cemetery records at LMA Indexes and Transcripts in the LMA Library Records held elsewhere Introduction Before the mid-19th century most burials in London took place in churchyards and from the mid-16th century were recorded in parish registers. Some hospitals and other institutions had their own burial grounds. From the time of the Black Death special burial grounds outside the City walls were provided for people who died from the periodic epidemics of plague which afflicted London. Land to the north of the Artillery Ground known as Bunhill Fields was set aside in 1665 as a plague burial ground, but was not used for this purpose. It then became a burial ground for nonconformists. After 1690 many nonconformist meeting houses and chapels were established in London some of which had their own burial grounds. By the late 18th century the London churchyards were becoming overcrowded. New cemeteries were established as private speculations generally offering slightly lower charges for burials than the churchyards. Some of these burial grounds were originally connected to chapels adjoining them, but were subsequently bought by private individuals. By 1835 there were at least fourteen such burial grounds in London including Spa Fields, Clerkenwell, opposite London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) where about 80, 000 people were buried. An enquiry in 1843 discovered that about 40 burials were taking place each day.

    EDITORIAL E have before commented enviously on the freedom with which American scholars can pursue their researches-not: W a complete freedom, because America is more and more in the war, and such Libraries as the Folger in Washington, and the Huntington in California, have sent their books and manuscripts to safer places.-surely an excess of caution! And what a pleasure it is nowadays to handle a book on white paper, with good print and wide margins, and free from all suggestions of overcrowding. Such a one is Dr. W. K. Jordan's Men of Substance {Chicago and Cam­ bridge Univ. Presses, 18s.), which is reviewed in the Congregational Quarterly, January, 1944. Those who have used Dr. Jordan's four volumes on toleration will open this account of two Parliamentarian supporters, Henry Parker and Henry Robinson, with eagerness, and they will not be disappointed. Too often does Cromwell's greatness obscure the service rendered by smaller men; here are two civil servants, not working silently, for they were prolific pamphleteers, but working efficiently, with clear heads and bright ideas. We mention the book here, partly in order that our readers may not overlook it, and partly in order to emphasize a point, well made by Dr. Jordan, which conveys a much-needed warning to students. There has been a tendency, especially since the modern stress on economics was read back into the 17th century, to discuss minor movements and extreme elements at the expense of more solid and less vocal ones. But Dr. Jordan puts it so well that we cannot do better than quote his words: The historian, unable completely to divest himself of modern preoccupations and preconceptions, is perplexed by the essen­ tially conservative nature of the English Revolution.
