Individual: Richard Thornton (id=I5) General Comment: @NI5@ In 1857 this brilliant young geology student was strongly recommended by Sir Roderick Murchison as a mining geologist on the Zambesi expedition under Dr. David Livingstone. One other member of that expedition was Livingstone's brother Charles, who was appointed under the title ";moral agent"; and official recorder of the expedition, but who seems to have been the chief cause of all quarrels and discontent in the party. Initially, Livingstone was impressed by Thornton's early work. In a despatch of August 6, 1858, Livingstone wrote: ";We were guided in our navigati on by a very accurate chart made by Mr. Thornton."; But by November, Thornton, only 19 years of age, was very pale and unable to work owing to a mild fever. He had, in fact, contracted malaria. By March 1859, Livingstone became increasingly critical of Thornton's work and attitude. "; Sent Thornton off to make a shaft in the coal. Thornton evidently disinclined to geologise and has done next to nothing the last three months. Gorges himself with the best of everything he can lay hold of without asking. "; Eventually Thornton's salary was stopped when Livingstone officially separated him from the expedition. So far we have only heard the official Livingstone side of the story, but a letter written by Thornton to his older sister Helen in July 1859, puts the matter in very different light. It seems Livingstone seriously underestimated the gravity of Thornton's ill health and was prejudiced against the ambitious, and over-confident young man, by his brother Charles, who had quarrelled with Thornton on the boat out to Africa. Another member of the expedition later described Thornton as ";young and clever rather than able; opinionative and active and would work if one knew how to get work out of him"; In the event James Stewart's words proved to be right. Using family money from Cottingley, the intrepid young explorer left Livingstone and, with two natives and 300 slaves, set out to explore the country round Tete, north of Zambesi, where he fell in with a German expedition, led by Baron von Decken in the first ever European survey of the Kilimanjaro Mountains. The Baron got out of young Thornton everything that the hapless Livingstone had been unable to do. Thornton completed a thorough survey of the snow -capped equitorial mountains. His meticulously kept journals reveal an enthusiastic, dedicated and professional geologist. In February 1863, Thornton visited the Universities Mission and found the missionaries in a most pitiable condition and suffering from famine. With malaria worsening, the young Cottingley explorer volunteered to return the 80 miles to Tete to purchase food and livestock for the station. The journey through the hot and fever ridden country took its toll on Thornton who managed to get back with 100 head of sheep and goats. But within a week of his return he died of dysentery on April 22, 186 3, at the age of 25. Sir Roderick Murchison had refused to accept Livingstone's dismissal of Thornton and a year later commended him in his presidential address to the Royal Geographical Society. ";So gifted and rising an explorer - had he lived, his indomitable zeal and great acquirements would have surely placed him in the front rank of men of science."; Thornton's death broke up the expedition and Livingstone went off on his solitary journey to be eventually discovered by Stanley. Perhaps he went with a bad attack of conscience of the way he had mistreated and misjudged the brilliant young adventurer, Richard Thornton. Both of these Cottingley men - William Wickham and Richard Thornton - for one reason or another escaped national recognition. It is only fitting that we in Airedale at least recognise their efforts. -------------------------------------- Baron K. K. von der Decken, accompanied by a young English geologist, Richard Thornton, travelled from Mombasa to Chaggaland in 1861 and attempted the first conquest of Kilimanjaro. ------------------------------------ It was 13 years before Rebman's sighting [of Kilimanjaro in 1848] was conf irmed by the German Officer Baron Karl Klaus von der Decken and the young British geologist Richard Thornton. Von de Decken climbed to about 14,0 00 feet and experienced a fall of snow. Thornton made many observations of the mountain and estimated accurately that it stood about 20,000 feet above sea level. Six years later the missionary Charles New managed to reach the snowline. Then in 1884 the naturalist Henry Hamilton Johnston made an intensive study of the flora and fauna. The argument was not settled, nor did any explorer attempt to visit or climb Kilimanjaro till a German, Baron K. K. von der Decken, accompanied by a young English geologist, Richard Thornton, travelled from Mombasa to Chaggaland in 1861 and attempted the first conquest of Kilimanjaro. For an account of this attempt which only reached 5,200 feet, see Thorn ton's diaries, at present being prepared for publication. In 1862 the Baron, accompanied by a German, Otto Kersten, renewed the attempt. For details of how the party reached 14,200 feet before being forced to return by bad weather and uncooperative porters, see Kersten's account in his six volume opus published between 1869 and 1879. This account has been translated and published in English for the first time in this number of T.N.R. ------------------------------------------------- Richard Thornton and also his brother Hastwell, went to Bingley Grammar School. The latter brother became a doctor of medicine, and died in Canad Richard, on leaving Bingley, was a pupil at the Bradford Grammar School, and subsequently, as already mentioned, he went to the School of Mines. It is also interesting to know that while the Thorntons resided at Cottingley Hall, the distinguished novelist, Charlotte Bronte, applied there for a situation as governess, but as Miss Bronte could not undertake to give music lessons to Mrs. Thornton's children, she was not engaged. |
| Individual: Joseph Newiss (id=I9) General Comment: @NI9@ Here they are that May, decorating their homes in honour of the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. By the time they had finished, Back Aireworth Street, off South Street, boasted a profusion of bunting, streamers, pennants, balloons and every conceivable type of red, white and blue decoration', winning a £3 prize from a coronation committee of Keighley Corporation. Thousands came from all over town to view it, and £10 was collected for Victoria Hospital. The residents put their prize-money towards treating neighbourhood children to a trip to Bridlington. This community spirit was to become a casualty of progress - the last house in Aireworth Street was demolished in 1973. The site is now occupied by Farish House (named, incidentally, after John Farish, a founder in 1825 of the Keighley Mechanics' Institute). |

| Individual: Mary Irene Newiss (id=I47) General Comment: @NI47@ Irene has very little memory of her mother Ada Thornton, but has many happy memories of her time in Sherburn in Elmet where she lived with her new step mothers parents while her father was away in the army. She remembers going to school there and making freinds with Dorothy a girl that lived next door. After Sherburn in Elmet she moved to Spring Row in Long Lee Keighley with Frank, his new wife and her brothers. It was with great reluctance that she left Sherburn in Elmet. She would return again for a holiday, and be disappointed when calling on her next door next door to be told that she had gone to collage. She remembers that airplanes were such a common site flying over that no one took any notice, but when a car passed through every one stopped to stare and was the unusual event. Should have been reg at birth with the name Irene, but her aunt Mary was sent to register the birh and wanted her to be named after her, so she had her registered as Mary Irene. All her life she was known as Irene. Would regularly go to dances with her cousins Edith and Maggie who were twins and Miss Kadberry Irene was a keen dancer and from an early age attended dances with her cousins. She continued to dance into her nineties. She had always had a keen interest in gymnastics and went to keep fit in her later years. In her youth she had played the piano, gaining certificates of merit. Irene was a great needle woman, and her skills extended to being able to taylor a garment giving it that bespoke look. She made all the wedding dresses for her daughters, or assisted in a supervising roll, as all the girls inherited her needle working skills. Although to my knowledge none are able to do tatting, a form of fine crocheting used for making delicate and intricate mats and covers. Due to poor eye sight Irene had to give up sewing, but passed her time knitting and crocheting for the family. Irene was also brilliant at French polishing and other cosmetic woodworking skills. She had gone through WW1 in her childhood, and when WW2 arrived had a family of four children to raise. Despite shortages and a small income, due to her homemaking skills she was able to feed and cloth her family better than most, making them very fortunate. Because of her sawing skills s he was able to recycle cloths and household goods, in some cases improving them from their former condition. Because Norman was working in textiles, pieces of fabric would often come their way. A pair of curtains with matching Cushion covers, arm and back covers, woven in the cellar on a loom built from scraps by Norman, for many years graced one of the rooms of their home in Lawkholme Lane. |

| Individual: Norman Petyt (id=I191) General Comment: @NI191@ To make ends meet Norman had never been afraid to try something new and us ually had some little plan waiting to be hatched which might generate so me extra income. The family were often used has the workforce, each one at sometime in their childhood and/or adulthood having played some part in his ventures, child labour laws did not apply and a buffet was supplied to enable a small person to see the loom, or to gain enough height for adding new and removing bobbins on the winding. Window dressing in his shop, book keeping, and market stall holder, etc. While waiting for his call up papers in WW2 he joined the Riddlesden Home Guard to do "his bit". Dads Army was one of his favourite TV programmes and brought back many happy memories for him. One other, including the books was All Creatures Great and Small, Norman and Irene loved the Dales and spent many a day roaming trying to find new places. Having some close and dear friends, Frank and Clarie that farmed deep in the dales, they could relate to many of the story lines. For holidays they, now being able to holiday without the encumbrance of children fell in love with Scotland and its islands. An abundance of photographs with Scottish heather, glens and lochs abound, showing happy times. Prior to touring Scotland they had taken holidays at Milnthorpe, Arnside, Irene's brother Raymond and his wife Clara lived here, they owned a shop in Morecambe, which had a flat above. They would kindly vacate their beautiful home to allow Norman and family to have a seaside holiday. Norman had always been a keen sports man from a very early age, winning many prizes for running, football and cricket. He followed with keen interest the sporting adventures of his grandchildren in his later years. Prizes had often been canteens of cutlery, he won so many that they were given has wedding presents to friends and family, as they were always of high quality people were more than happy to receive them. His parents died while he was young, but even before her death it seems that his mother spent most of her time in bed either giving birth or getting over a birth, or ill. The raising of the family was left to Sister Eliz a, who it is said died at age 40 from hard work. She would rise early in the morning to light the fires and heat the water, make breakfast for every one, then go and do a days work, on her return she would perform all the other household tasks. They were a close knit family and always kept in close contact with each other, his sister Ida was a special favourite. Norman always loved a good book and doing crosswords and other puzzles, and it was very frustrating for him in his later years when he was no longer due to physical problems able to potter in his beloved garden, where he had his escape hut, it was disguised as a place for keeping garden tools, but was actually the place where he kept his secret stash of beer and brandy for keeping the chill out, and cigarettes, the former two only a llowed in the house for special occasions, and then only for visitors or medicinal use as no one in the household par took of either! So it was with great frustration that he now could not even pass his time with his books and puzzles. In his younger days Norman had been a keen photographer, but sadly keeping some sort of record of what and where taken where not his strong point, the family have a wealth of black and white photographs taken with his box brownie with absolutely no idea of whom or where, which is a shame as many show family members and close friends on outings and sharing adventures. He did progress on to more modern 35mm cameras, but the indexing never got underway. His hearing too faded, and his favourite music and TV programs were played at such a volume that they had to be shared by anyone in a quarter mile radius. He had been fitted with an earring aid and a loop system for the phone and TV, but he had never been technically minded and became frustrated at not being able to get them to work, and so abandoned them as useless! Norman was just happy if things worked and never wondered how it worked, his son David was the other side of this coin, from a very early age he wanted to know how everything with moving parts worked and dissected it to make the discovery, the cat lived on a knife edge. After retiring he had filled his time mostly in the garden, decorating was in the whole left to Irene, Norman was not known for his DIY skills, using a six inch nail bent over where a screw would do was his way. The inner workings of a car after the demise of the Morris minor were a total mystery to him. Because of this failing he formed a close friendship with neighbour and local garage owner Peter Hastings. This to those on the outside seemed to be based mainly on a mutual love of toffees and verbal abuse exchanged between them. knowing that Peter was held in high regard and in his later years was Normans closest friend, Peter was asked to give the reading at Normans funeral. Some of us are just glad that there was such a huge age gap, had they been closer in years one is best not to wonder who might have lead who astra y. |
| Individual: Richard Thornton (id=I195) General Comment: @NI195@ Cottingley House was the seat of the Dobsons and the Lamplugh -Wickhams. It passed to the Ferrands by purchase. Mr. Richard Thornton, father of the explorer, was a tenant there. Mr Charles H Priestley took Cottingley Hall in 1887. After his death his wife continued to live at the Hall until her death when it was sold to Mr. Harry Briggs and then Mr Asa Lingard. The Hall was demolished during the 1914/18 war.. ---------------------------------------------------- It is also interesting to know that while the Thorntons resided at Cottingley Hall, the distinguished novelist, Charlotte Bronte,applied there for a situation as governess, but as Miss Bronte could not undertake to give music lessons to Mrs. Thornton's children, she was not engaged. Cottingley Hall was subsequently occupied by the several families of Lupton, Firth and Stansfield. A stone on anout-building is inscribed I.H., M.H., 1671, G.H.,and in front of the house appears the double cross indicating that it was formerly in possession of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem. In the yard behind was an old bakehouse, with spacious fireplace, once used as a drying room for leather. |

| Individual: Edward (Enoch) Newiss (id=I362) General Comment: @NI362@ RACING fanatic Ted Newiss is heading for Doncaster today - to celebrate h is 86th birthday. Ted, who looked after the old Keighley Market and was charge hand at Cliffe Castle Museum under the former Keighley Borough Council, will be handing out the prizes to owners, jockey and trainers after the running of his own race. He will be joined by members of his family and friends for the Ted Newiss 86th Birthday Celebration Novices' Hurdle' which runs today (Friday) at the famous Yorkshire course. It is the second time Ted's birthday has been celebrated as part of the autumn meeting. Last year his family arranged to sponsor the race in his honour, but while local trainer Sue Smith's horse, Diceman, romped to victory, Ted was seriously ill in Airedale Hospital. This year he has been determined not to miss the big day again. "I'll be there and I'm really looking forward to the day - but I'm still keeping my fingers crossed," he told the Keighley News this week. After Diceman's victory last year Ted and members of his family have kept a close eye on the progress of the horse. "It has been very good for us, and certainly doesn't owe us any money," said Ted's son Derek, it was just a pity dad couldn't be there to watch a local trainer win his race. Ted's love of racing started when he was a young man. "There was a few of us and we would put 3d (about 1p) on the horses, and I still love it ," he said. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Sport obituray: Ted Newiss From the Telegraph & Argus, first published Friday 1st Apr 2005. A keen sportsman who played rugby league for Keighley, rugby union and football as well as being a medal-winning sprinter, has died. Ted Newiss was born in Keighley in 1917 and attended Ingrow Council School. His sporting prowess was evident at an early age when he became the Keighley and District sprint champion in 1931. He took up football, playing for Guard House with his friend Arthur Thurling. Arthur also became his brother-in-law in 1938 when Ted married Arthur's sister, Emily. Ted's working life started as an apprentice at Keighley joiners, Verity and Shuttleworth, before moving into engineering at Prince, Smith and Stells. Maintaining his sporting interest, Ted regularly played in their rugby league team and during the early war years, he turned out for Keighley rugby league club. During the war, he was a volunteer in the ARP warden service and then the fire service. In 1945 he was conscripted into the army and joined the Royal Northumberland Fusiliers in Gibraltar and Greece, alongside his friend Arthur. While he was in the army, Ted switched codes to play rugby union and his side, which contained many former league men, enjoyed success in several regional tournaments. As a member of the Transport and General Workers Union, he served as chairman of the Keighley 9/205 branch for 25 years. During the 1950's Ted a committee member of the Keighley and District junior rugby league, putting his energy back into a sport he had played and enjoyed. He worked for 14 years as a handyman in Keighley's open market and then transferred to the newly constructed market hall. In 1973 he moved to Cliffe Castle Museum and worked as an attendant before his retirement in 1980. Ted was a member of Our Lady of Victories Catholic Church, Guard House, for 47 years and had been a longstanding member of both Keighley Liberal Cl ub and Oakworth Social Club. His son Derek Newiss said: "Ted leaves a daughter, two sons, seven grandchildren and four great grandchildren and will be sadly missed by them and all the people whose lives he touched. "When you went into town with him, you were always getting stopped by people he knew. He was certainly well known in Keighley." |

| Individual: Eliza Elizabeth Petyt (id=I595) General Comment: @NI595@ Dying at the young age of forty, they say she died of hard work. Eliza not only worked full time but took over the care of the family and home as her mother spent most of her life in bed either pregnant or suffering the ills of pregnancy and childbirth. Unsurprisingly Eliza never married, whether there was ever anyone in her life in the romantic sense is not known. |
| Individual: Joseph Petyt (id=I596) General Comment: @NI596@ The east wall of the Church, rebuilt in 1877 to a design by Joseph Petyt of Stank House, Bolton Abbey, the Duke of Devonshire's Land Agent. Joseph Petyt was born at Beamsley in 1825; he was the son of Christopher Petyt and his wife Elizabeth Moon. Christopher was a farmer and stonemason who in 1851 was employing 12 men. He must have been responsible for much of the building work in the area. He also specialised in monumental masonry and examples of his work can be seen in Bolton Priory graveyard. Joseph trained as a mason which was a skill he used later in life, he was also a farmer. In 1853 Joseph married Alice Read (1826-1889) at Bolton Abbey. They had three children, William who trained as an engineer and emigrated to America in the early 1880s, Thomas who died in 1858 aged three years and Emily. In 1861 Joseph was described as a Surveyor of Buildings, in 1871 as a farmer of 60 acres and by 1881 he was established at Stank House Farm, Bolton Abbey as a farmer and Agent to the Duke of Devonshire. In his capacity as Agent he would be responsible for the day to day management of the Bolton Abbey estate. In 1864 Bolton Abbey became a parish in its own right and in 1866 the seventh Duke of Devonshire employed George Street to make some changes to the layout of the church. One of Street's changes that was not accepted at the time was his suggestion that the two windows in the east wall should be removed and replaced with 'a lofty painted reredos'. In 1877 it was decided to remove the windows and the wall was taken down and rebuilt. Joseph Petyt designed the new wall and the estate workmen carried out most of the work. A local artist, George Bottomley of Crosshills, painted the wall in 1880. Joseph Petyt died 15 March 1883 and was buried in the graveyard at Bolton Abbey. His memorial reads… In memory of Joseph Petyt born at Beamsley, December 13th 1825, died at Stank House, Bolton Abbey, March 15th 1883. This memorial was erected by 136 of his friends in much of their great regard for his personal worth and public and private services on the Bolton Abbey Estate. Also Alice, wife of Joseph Petyt born at Bolton Abbey, November 12th 1826, died November 22nd 1889. 'Qui S'estime Petyt deviendra grand ' The following appeared in the Craven Herald. THE POET'S CORNER. Lines written on the death of Mr Joseph Petyt of Stank House, Bolton Abbey, Agent to the Duke of Devonshire (who died March 15th, and was interred at Bolton Abbey, March 19th, 1883). The weary eyes are clos'd in death; Thy labour now is o'er; Thy aching limbs are laid at rest, And ne'er shall suffer more. No earthly skill could save thy life, Nor give thee health again; For sudden was the call at last-- All human aid was vain. Thy death is mourn'd by all around, Their loss is great indeed; Thine ear was open to distress-- Thine hand to those in need. The widow and the fatherless In thee have lost a friend; 'Twas thine to stay oppression's hand, And all their rights defend. Truth and justice was thy guide\emdash No lover thou of strife; For discord had no place in thee; Thine was a peaceful life. Long and faithful thou has serv'd The Duke of Devonshire, To do thy duty to his Grace Was ever thy desire. Thy active brain will never more Work out another plan, So well adapted in design To meet the wants of man. Oh! Better far than human skill, God's wisdom did devise For thee a house not made with hands\emdash A mansion in the skies. And though we never more shall hear Thy voice in palm or song, We trust that thou had'st join'd the choir Of the bright angel throng. Whil'st thou art resting in thy grave Beside the Abbey grey, Thy loving deeds will live and bloom, And never fade away. Thomas Whitaker, Addingham, March 19th, 1883. |

None of the siblings seem to have gone back to farm Bakerstone Cliff, one must assum that the farm was either rented, or at John's (the father) death sold. |

| Individual: Emily Petyt (id=I746) General Comment: @NI746@ Emily Petyt was born at Bolton Abbey in 1859, the daughter Of Joseph Petyt, Agent to the Duke of Devonshire, and his wife Alice Read. She was very talented artist, painting in both oils and watercolours and she was a musician. She was described on the 1891 census returns as a landscape artist and sculptor. She was married to Alfred Downs who was Agent to the Duke of Devonshire for 52 years. The following is part of an obituary printed in the Craven Herald 15th March 1929. The death on Friday last, at the age of 70, of Mrs Alfred Downs, of The Beeches, Bolton Abbey, removed, one of the best-known figures from the village. Prior to an illness lasting a considerable time, Mrs Downs had taken an active part in public affairs in the district, and was well-known and highly respected. The daughter of the late Mr and Mrs Joseph Petyt of Stank House, Bolton Abbey, Mrs Downs was a native of the district and had lived there all her life. She was actively identified with Bolton Abbey Church, being for many years a member of the choir, and had acted on numerous occasions as deputy organist at the Abbey. For many years she had held office as a Sunday school Teacher, and about 20 years ago founded the Bolton Abbey Girl's Club, which she carried on in the capacity as President up to her illness Alfred Downs who was born at Edensor in Derbyshire in 1862 died at Beamsley in 1951. His obituary in the Craven Herald of 27 September 1961 included the following. Formerly Agent for the Duke of Devonshire's Bolton Abbey estate with which he had an association of nearly 60 years, Mr Alfred Downs died at his Beamsley home on Saturday aged 88. A man of wide interests he had been a Justice of the Peace since 1930 and gave loyal and zealous service to religious, local government and recreational organisations. He was greatly esteemed in Bolton Abbey and district. Mr Downs retired in 1937 after being estate agent at Bolton Abbey for 52 years and before that assisted in the estate office for seven years before going to Bolton Abbey from Chatsworth, Derbyshire. He served under three Dukes of Devonshire. He was responsible for the outside arrangements when the late King George V visited Bolton Abbey for the grouse shooting, and helped to provide sport for many other distinguished guests at various times. A devout churchman, Mr Downs had been associated with the Priory Church, Bolton Abbey for almost 70 years, for the first 31 years of which he was a chorister. He was a sidesman for 64 years, and for nine years he was the Rector's Warden. In 1887 Mr Downs became a Foundation member of the Boyle and Petyt School, Beamsley, and in 1917 was appointed chairman of the school's trustees, a position he held for many years. He was also a trustee of the Silvester Petyt Trust. At one time Mr Downs served on the Addingham Education Sub -committee, he was at one time chairman. |
| Individual: Elizabeth Petyt (id=I749) General Comment: @NI749@ 1891 living with widow mother. Census lists them between Old chaple house and watshaw Taken from http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~petyt/petytbiog.h Elizabeth Petyt was born at Hazlewood, Bolton Abbey in1861, She was the daughter of Henry Petyt (1825-1886), a shoemaker, and his wife Ann Gill (183 1-1909). On the 1891 census returns Elizabeth was described as a dressmaker but later in life she was better known for her skill as a baker. Her speciality w as a delicious sponge cake, which she called a light luncheon cake. She made these cakes for the Devonshire Arms at Bolton Abbey for many years. It was the practise at the Devonshire Arms to serve one of these cakes or part of one, depending on the size of the party, for the last course of luncheon, accompanied by a whole Stilton which was passed from table to table with a napkin round it and port inside it. The following is taken from an account that appeared in the Craven Hera ld and Pioneer in early August 1933. By the side of the road that climbs steadily from Bolton Abbey, and winds its way across Blubberhouses Moor towards Harrogate, there stands two weather-beaten cottages, whose quaintness betrays their antiquity. Original ly they were one house, the homestead of a Wharfedale farm, which for over two hundred years was occupied by the Petyt family. Now one of the cottages shelters one of the last of this family, Miss E Petyt, who will reach her 72nd birthday on 29th August. There have been Petyts in the Bolton Abbey district ever since the beginning of the 16th century and a John Petyt married the sister of Richard Moon, the last Prior of Bolton. Three generations later there were Petyts living at Storiths and today Miss Petyt's home is in the joint township of Hazlewood with Storiths. It was at Storiths that William and Silvester Petyt, the two most famous members of the family were born. In the vestry at Skipton Parish church there hangs a portrait of Silvester and once when Miss Petyt visited the church the verger told her that he recognised her from her ancestor's portrait. She replied that she did not know that she was so ugly. From her mother, who died at the ripe old age of 78, and who knew four Dukes of Devonshire, Miss Petyt has received a rare legacy. It is an old fashioned recipe of how to make the most delicious sponge cakes one could wish to taste. There are sponge cakes and sponge cakes. Some are as tough as leather and as heavy as lead, but those, which come out of Miss Petyt's oven, have a fairylike lightness. They are unique, as several of her friends have discovered. Often they keep her so busy with orders that her hens cannot lay eggs fast enough to meet requirements. And when her customer's needs are satisfied, she can sit and look through the mullioned windo ws across the valley to Beamsley Beacon. She thinks of it as the hill her grandmother, one of the Demaine family, climbed in the early 19th century to visit the soldier who was guarding the beacon anxiously wondering how much longer he had to wait before telling Wharfedale that the threaten ed Napoleonic invasion was an accomplished fact. Fate decreed that that day should never come. Today Miss Petyt surveys the world through her gold-rimmed spectacles and declares that it is mad on pleasure. 'My mother walked to Skipton Parish Church and back to be confirmed' she told a Pioneer reporter. 'Now they wont walk two yards to church. Some of the clothes modern girls wear in vites insults, I think men will soon have to take to petticoats if they want to be different'. Elizabeth died unmarried in 1936 and is buried in the churchyard at Bolton Abbey. |

| Individual: Maud Petyt (id=I770) General Comment: @NI770@ Maud Petyt was born at Bolton Woods near Bradford in 1886. She was the daughter of James Petyt (1853-1931), a wool buyer and his second wife Alice Jubb (1856-1906). James was born at Hazlewood near Bolton Abbey and was the son of Henry Petyt, shoemaker Maud was a very talented musician, being an excellent pianist and possessing an exceptional contralto voice. She was so obsessed with music that she even persuaded her father to give their house at 68 Bolton Hall Road, Bradford the name of Rossini Mount. It is not known whether Maud appeared on the professional stage during her time in Bradford but it can safely be assumed that she was involved with local amateur groups in the town. In 1910 Maud married Arthur Rawstron (1891-1916) at Bradford Register Office, later that year she gave birth, at Buck House Farm, Baildon, to a son, Leslie Petyt Rawstron. At the time of his marriage Arthur was employed as a clerk at a wool mill, he later became a cashier at Charleston Combing Co. Ltd., Bradford. With the outbreak of war in 1914 Arthur enlisted in the Ist Battalion Seafor th Highlanders and was killed in action in Iraq. He has no known grave. At the time of his death Maud was living at Mexborough Road, Bolton Woods, Bradford. In 1919 Maud was married at Bolton Abbey to Cuthbert Paul Beadon. Paul, as he was known, was the son of the Rev. William Beadon, a Wesleyan minister. He had served as a commissioned officer in the RFC during the war and at the time of his marriage he was still serving with what was by then the RAF. Paul was to re-enlist in the RAF during the Second World War. It was after Maud's marriage to Paul that she left Yorkshire. At some stage after the end of WWI she and Paul lived in Dar-es-Salaam, it is thought that Paul was involved with an airfield there. When they returned to England they settled in London and it is then that Maud made most of her professional appearances. She sang with the Carl Rosa Opera Company, appeared in Ivor Novello's 'Glamorous Nights' (she was said to have been understudy to Gertrude Lawrence) and appeared as a soloist in many concerts such as those staged by the League of British Artists. In one such concert in 1922, using the stage name Joan Bethune, she appeared at The Queen's Hall and sang two pieces, 'Love is a Slave' and the aria by Rossini 'Una Voce Poco Fa'. At some stage during the late 1920s Maud was persuaded that she had a great musical career in front of her. A concert was arranged at the Albert Hall, she was given the name of 'Gloriana Britanicus' and the event was advertised all over London. With a name like that she was doomed to failure and the concert was not the successs he had hoped for. She was able to get small parts for a number of years but she was never to be the leading lady. Maud and Paul lived at various addresses in London, they had a flat in Reg ent Park, not far from the one lived in by Mrs. Simpson and later one in Cumberland Mews. They were bombed out of this last flat in 1943/44 and they then bought a large house in Amherst Road, Ealing Broadway Leslie, Maud's son from her first marriage was also interested in the stage He trained as an actor and stuntsman. He was the understudy to Robert Donat in 'The 39 Steps' and he did all the dangerous parts like falling fr om trains. Like his mother he was never a great success although he did get quite a lot of work appearing in public information films. He also worked as a male model and often appeared on the front of Paton and Baldwin 's knitting patterns. Maud was a very glamorous figure and after the war when the stage work had dried up she could often be seen modelling clothes in the large Lond on hotels. Eventually the cost of living in London became prohibitive and they bought a house at Seaton near Plymouth. At first Maud was unhappy cut off from all her friends in London until she discovered the church community in Downderry, a nearby village. She played the organ in the church until 1972 and was involved with the church council serving on the c ommittee from 1963 to 1965. Maud died on 23rd January 1974 and Paul died two years later. |

| Individual: Joseph Petyt (id=I776) General Comment: @NI776@ The Fountain Inn was in Middle Row in Skipton High Street. The site is now occupied by Tog 24, an outdoor clothing retailer. The history of the property on this site can be traced back to 1569. , when there is a record of its sale for £12. The name Fountain Inn dates from 1829. It was taken over by Joseph Petyt in 1882, and he remained the licencee until 1900. The photograph must therefore date from this period. Rowley writes: " In 1882 Joseph Petyt took the inn: he had been Clerk of Works for the Ship Hotel, the Post Office and the Conservative Club on Belmont Bridge; he was Sanitary Inspector for the Council in 1891-92 and a member of the UDC in 1900-1903."We have traced the obituary for Joseph Petyt in the local paper, the Craven Herald, of 21st April, 1916. He died on April 19th, at The Hill, Lane Ends, Oakworth, in his 73rd year. His profession is given as architect. He was interred at Oakworth cemetery on April 22nd. It makes no reference at all to any remaining family members. It concludes "Mr Petyt's demise will be much regretted by a large circle of friends in the Skipton district." The inference is that there were no surviving relatives. |

| Individual: David Maurice Petyt (id=I806) General Comment: @NI806@ Just after the Second World War, the owner of a Keighley Curtain weaving firm refused to sell curtain lengths to his workforce. Wishing to brighten their homes they resorted to stealing the cloth and soon many houses displayed new curtains. To control the situation and with the blessing of the owner, the mill manager Norman Petyt bought full rolls of the fabrics and then sold cut lengths to the employees. Norman set up shop in the cellar of his home, eventually moving via a seri es of small shops and market stalls into dress fabrics, haberdashery and men's suiting's. In 1952 he had also started his own weaving business. After training at Bradford University his son David joined him and together they continued to build a thriving company until in 1975, a combination of Global economics and a series of bad debts Ian, retained Roselea Textiles, a portion of the manufacturing business and David took the retail portion, opening a shop in Hanover Street. When the adjacent hairdressers came on the market, David opened a high fashion shop which lasted about two years. But in June 1990, David's wife Carolyn became a partner, both shops were refitted, the name changed to "David Petyt" and the Hire department expanded. David and Carolyn have not looked back since. This business now concentrates on quality menswear for the 35-65 age groups, David and Carolyn retired in 2005 David until his resignation in 2007 was actively involved with Keighley Council. In his spare time he does a lot of public speaking at various organisations and gatherings. He also "plays" on the Worth Valley Railway line, ok, not on the line its self but on the trains. |

She and Mr Wesley Petty resided at Harrogate for upwards of thirty years, but in recent years in Leeds. They had thirteen children - eight sons and five daughters - and three died in infancy, and when they celebrated their golden wedding last October, it was stated that they had 21 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

| Individual: Elizabeth Petyt (id=I845) General Comment: @NI845@ Elizabeth Petyt was born at Beamsley in 1841; she was the daughter of Christopher Petyt, stonemason and his wife Elizabeth Moon. She was the sister of Joseph Petyt; Land Agent to the Duke of Devonshir Elizabeth was a talented musician and was the organist at Bolton Abbey Church for fifty years. She was a farmer in her own right at Hardy Grange, Beamsley and the 1881 Census describes her as a Professor of Music and farmer of 57 acres. One assumes from that entry that Elizabeth also taught music. Elizabeth married late in life at the age of 42; her husband was Dr. Willi am Usher of Addingham. When William died in 1911 his obituary in the Craven Herald stated 'Closely following the traditions of the older-fashioned country practitione r, he was almost daily to be seen mounted on his sturdy hack, traversing the highways and byways of Wharfedale on his mission of ministering to the sick.' Elizabeth died at Bolton Abbey in 1917 and the following obituary was printed in the Craven Herald, 26th January 1917. Bolton Abbey lost one of its most highly respected and energetic workers by the death of Mrs Usher on Wednesday, the 24th ult., at the age of 76 years. She was the widow of the late Dr Usher of Hardy Grange, Beamsley. Mrs Usher was the well-known lady organist of Bolton Abbey Church, and retired from that position in March 1912, through failing health. She had held the post faithfully for over half a century, and to commemorate her good work a brass tablet has been fixed to the organ front. It is worthy of note that the deceased lady, as Miss Petyt, sister of Mr Joseph Petyt of Stank House, Bolton Abbey, was, half a century ago, a noted contralto singer, and frequently figured at the famous Penny Readings in Skipton\emdash at that time a popular institution, at which many worthy Skiptonians, since passed away, gave readings from popular authors of the day. The record of the Petyt family in organ playing at the world-celebrated priory is unique. Mrs Usher belonged to the Petyt family, her father being a Petyt himself. One has to go back many generations to find the time when a Petyt did not preside at the organ at Bolton Abbey Church. Indeed Mrs Usher succeeded her sister in the position of organist over 50 years ago, and her father had been the organist longere her sister took up the work, and his father before him officiated in a similar capacity. None can tell when the Petyt's actually did begin the organ playing at Bolton, but it is certain that a Petyt used to preside at the organ there when the accompaniments were played on a hand-blown instrument, and it is assumed that a Petyt led the music at the Abbey service before organs came into use in England at all. No wonder that, not only Bolton folks but the Duke of Devonshire, who owns the Abbey and the estates for miles round, have been so proud of the lady organist at this charming church in the higher valley of the beautiful Wharfe. Her loss will, indeed, be mourned by a large circle of friends. Mrs Usher, herself, could recall being greeted by no less than four successive Dukes of Devonshire, and congratulated on her work at the organ and when the King had attended Divine Service at the Abbey during his stay at Bolton in the shooting season, he always declared how greatly he enjoyed the simple but striking service and music at their ancient and delightful sanctuary. In connection with the post of organist, Mrs. Usher was the choir mistress, and during her long term of office regularly attended a weekly practice, also frequently three times each week she held a singing class for the boys attending Beamsley Boyle and Petyt School, immediately after school hours. These classes were to train the boys to be choristers. It is interesting to note that three of the bearers at her funeral have this year completed 50 years service in the Abbey choir. Each of them started as boys under the tuition of Mrs Usher. The deceased lady has been more or less an invalid since her retirement, and for nearly three years had been living with her niece, Mrs Alfred Downs, The Beeches, Bolton Abbey. |
| Individual: Robert Petyt (id=I855) General Comment: @NI855@ Robert changed the spelling of his name after he moved to London and become a wealthy and successful businessman. Robert married his wife Sarah about 1847 and the first of their seven children was born in 1848 at Bradford. By 1851 he was back in Kettlewell and on the census returns he was described as ''formerly a builder and joiner'' but apart from that no trade was given. However by 1871 he was living at Little Horton, Bradford and trading as a wool merchant and a soap manufacturer. By the time of the Census of 1881 Robert was living at 10 Lawn Road, Hampstead, London and in business as Stock and Share Dealer. At that time he was employing two of his sons as clerks.

| Individual: Wesley Petty (id=I870) General Comment: @NI870@ In honour of the golden wedding of Mr and Mrs Wesley Petty, who have be great supporters of the temperance cause in Leeds, a dinner was given on Friday night in the County Liberal Club by the Leeds branch of the Nation al Commercial Temperance League. Mr Frederick Holiday, the president of the branch, occupied the chair, and the guests numbered about 150, among th were Mr and Mrs Petty, Sir William Middlebrook, MP, and Alderman E Woodhe ad (Huddersfield). The Chairman, in giving the toast of "Our Guests", dwelt on Mr Petty's industry in business, the work he had done for the temperance cause, and t he great width of his sympathies. It was often said, Mr Halliday observed, th at teetotallers were cranks - that they were men of one idea. That could nev er be said of Mr Petty, as his association with the Leeds Chamber of Commerc e, the Printers' Association, Freemasonry, Church work, and music showed. (Applause) Mr Petty, in response, said his married life had been fifty years of continuous pleasure. Although he was secretary of the Leeds Temperance Society at the early age of 23, he had devoted the latter part of his li fe to the work of the National Commercial Temperance League, and one of the greatest exhilarations of the past half a century had been the wonderful comradeship of Mr Thomas Gordon. (Applause) [Item continues about Sir William Middlebrook's toast to "The League"] During the evening musical items were given by Madame Marion Walker a nd Mr Wilfred Hudson. Miss E Naylor was at the piano. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- HH - 25th April 1928 Mr Wesley Petty, one of the best-known figures in the printing trade, a nd who lived at Harrogate for 30 years, died at his house, 2 Hollins Lane, Headingley, Leeds, on Sunday night.

At one time he was president of the Leeds and Yorkshire Mast er Printers' Association, and in later years a member of the Council of the Leeds Chamber of Commerce. Though he was an active businessman Mr Petty found time to devout himse lf to various public movements. An earnest advocate of temperance, he was hon. Secretary of the Leeds Tempera nce Society in 1869, and afterwards its president, and he founded the Leeds and other branches of t he National Temperance Council, of which at the time of his death he was senior vice-president. His concern f or the welfare of the working classes was shown in various ways, notably as organising secretary of the St James 's Hall Workingmen's Institute, (built by the late Mr W J Armitage), and he w as one of the late Canon Jackson's helpers among the poor of St James's paris h.

| Individual: Sylvester Petyt (id=I876) General Comment: @NI876@ Like William he started his legal studies at Barnard's Inn and was employed as a legal clerk by Fabian Philips between November 1659 and November 1 663 but did not follow William to Cambridge University. Silvester's association with Barnard's Inn was one that lasted all his life. He was admitted a member on 19th February 1666, an Ancient in 1686 and served as Principal from 1701 to 1704. In 1710 the then Principal and Ancients subscribed fifteen shillings each to pay for a portrait by Richard van Bleeck of Silvester Petyt. This portrait is now in the National Portrait Gallery in London. At various times Silvester lived in chambers at Barnard's Inn and in 1714 along with four of his colleagues he put up money to rebuild some of the older parts of the Inn. This was done, no doubt, with the thought of profit in mind. In his younger days Silvester was clerk to Lord Chief Justice (Sir John) Holt, a picture of whom he presented to Barnard's Inn. Later Silvester was appointed a Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas and in 1689 he was called, with others by, the Judges to give evidence to Parliament as to the fees charged in the various courts. In the main his very large legal practice and his equally large and profitable money lending business consumed most of his time. Silvester was prepared to lend money to almost anybody pro vided they could meet the repayments and his clients ranged from members of his own family back in Yorkshire to members of the aristocracy. When he died in 1719 he left an enormous amount of money most of which was to be used for charitable purposes in Yorkshire and it is for this charity that he is chiefly remembered. Silvester died at his home in Belle Savauge Yard, London in 1719. He was buried in the graveyard of St. Andrew's, Holborn according to the statement in his will, at the back side of the church there, at least ten feet deep There is no known memorial to him. There are at least three known portraits of Silvester, one in the National Portrait Gallery; one in the Skipton Girls High School and one in the Petyt Library which is now housed in the Town Library in Skipton High Street Last Will and Testament of Sylvester Petyt (dated 23rd May 1719) In the name of God Amen.

| Individual: Dr Richard Petty (id=I885) General Comment: @NI885@ Taken from http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~petyt/petytbiog.h Dr. Richard Petty, c1735-1766 Richard Petty was born at Colne in Lancashire about the year 1735. His father, John Petty who hailed from Dent, was almost certainly relat ed to the Pettys of Craven. John married Mary Walton at Colne in 1732. Through his marriage John Pet ty became the landlord of the Hole in the Wall Inn on the High Street in C olne, which Mary had inherited from her father George Walton. At that period cock fighting was a popular pastime and cockpits were oft en attached to inns. This was the case at the Hole in the Wall, in June 17 64 there was a notice announcing a cockfight ‘Yorkshire versus Lancashir e’ at Petty’s Pit, Colne. It is clear that Richard Petty was familiar with cock fighting and, indee d, was very interested in it and the gambling that was associated with i t. This interest was to lead in some ways to his death in 1766. Richard was an apothecary and practised as a doctor at Grassingto n. It is probable that he took over the practice of John Hawkridge who des cribed himself as a Surgeon, Man Midwife and Apothecary. Mr Hawkridge le ft Grassington in 1765 and moved to Otley. On Easter Tuesday, 1st April 1766, Dr. Petty, Tom Lee; the landlord of t he Blue Anchor Inn at Grassington and others attended the cockfights at Ke ttlewell. It is thought that the Doctor had been lucky and had won a lar ge amount of money. Petty and Lee left the cockfight together to make the ir way back to Grassington. They called at several inns and at their la st port of call at Henry Ellis’s inn at Conistone they were reported to ha ve drunk a pint of rum between them and were pretty well intoxicated. Th ey then mounted their horses to ride back to Grassington. Dr. Petty was ne ver seen alive again. On 2nd April the inhabitants were beginning to worry about the disappearan ce of Dr. Petty and the next day they asked Tom Lee to search for hi m. On the 4th April Dr. Petty’s father, John, was sent for from Colne a nd he paid the expenses of the search for his son. On the 15th April Tom Lee was committed to York Castle on suspicion of mur dering Dr. Petty. At this stage the body of Dr. Petty had not been found b ut early in May 1766 Ann Grieve was by the River Wharfe at Burnsall and s aw something strange in the water, she went for assistance and with the he lp of William Grieve and William Airton they recovered the body of Richa rd Petty. He was fully clothed but his clothes had the appearance of havi ng been buried in earth before he had been thrown into the river. An inque st was formally opened with evidence of identification so that the funer al could proceed. An entry in the Burnsal Parish Register reads ‘3rd May 1 766 Richard Petty, who was found in the water, (buried) by Mr. Knowles’. T he inquest was resumed on 19th May and the jury found ‘the said Richard Pe tty was murdered by the said Thomas Lee or some other person or persons un known’. At the Summer Assize held at York in July 1766 Thomas Lee was charged befo re a Grand Jury with the murder of Richard Petty. The Grand Jury acquitt ed Lee of the murder because of the lack of convincing evidence but becau se a Grand Jury hearing is not a trial, and there is accordingly no acquit tal or conviction, the accused could be tried at a later date if new evide nce turned up. Tom Lee was released, and returned to Grassington, at the s ame time John Burnup, his servant, who is rumoured to have heard incrimina ting conversations between Lee, his wife and others, left his employment a nd moved to Durham. Two years later Burnup’s conscience got the bett er of him and following a statement to the authorities Thomas Lee was comm itted to York Castle on 27th March 1768 on suspicion of murdering Richa rd Petty two years earlier. The trial was held at York in July 1768 when L ee and John Bownass were charged with the murder, whilst John Burnup and J ohn Tulley were charged with being concerned in the removal of Dr. Petty ’s body, in order to conceal a murder. Evidence was given that Dr. Petty w as murdered at Grass Wood Gate, money was stolen from his pockets and t he body laid among some reeds in Grass Wood. After the murder they moved t he body three different times, and lastly, about five weeks after the eve nt threw Dr. Petty’s remains into the river to make it appear that he h ad drowned. Lee was found guilty and the other three were acquitted. Lee w as hanged at York on Monday 28th July 1768 and his body was taken to Grass ington and the body was hung on a gibbet near the scene of the murder. Ma ny accounts of this murder have been published but the most accurate by f ar is the one published by R. Geoffrey Rowley in 1982. |

| Individual: Timothy Taylor (id=I906) General Comment: Timothy Taylor purchased the beerhouse (now known as the Volunteers) in Lawkholme Lane and the New Inn at Bocking during 1859. These were his first two pubs. In 1860 the Aireworth (later Airedale) Volunteers were formed and Timothy was a member of its ranks. The corps made their first appearance in full uniform in January 1861. Being a trained tailor by his father Richard Taylor in Bingley, his birthplace, Timothy is said to have made the uniforms for the men. A Bradford Telegraph & Argus article from August 1933 described how "a firm known as Timothy Taylor's of School Lane, Keighley, had made uniforms of light grey cloth, with red cuffs and collars and black belts. The volunteers of that day also wore grey shakos (hats) with a red ball on top". Upon Timothy removing to Keighley c1857 a branch of Taylor & Son's, tailors, drapers and hatters, was set up in Low Street. Timothy commenced brewing at Cook Lane in 1858 and continued with the tailoring business until at least 1861. |

The living of Rydal is a perpetual curacy, with a net income of £100, in the patronage of Lady Le Fleming, who, at the expense of £1500, erected the chapel, a small edifice with an octagonal spire, consecrated in 1825, and dedicated to the Virgin Mary. A rent-charge of £18. 10. has been awarded as a commutation for the tithes of the township. William Wordsworth, the gifted poet-laureate, has long resided here, in a delightful cottage upon a mount; the grounds around it have been laid out under his own tasteful direction, and command lovely prospects of the lake and other objects of interest in this attractive district. |

| Individual: Margaret Petyt (id=I1003) General Comment: @NI1003@ Margaret Petyt was born at Bradford in 1905; she was the daughter of Harry Petty (1875-1929) and his wife Violet Coe. Harry, who was a millinery w arehouseman, was the son of Aaron Petyt who was born at Beamsley near Bolton Abbey. Aaron moved to Bradford early in his life and eventually set up business as a Tailor and Draper at Chatsworth Place, Manningham, Bradford. Violet Coe's father was Alfred Coe who was a commercial photographer. In the early 1890s Alfred set up a separate company, The Coe Collotype Company, to produce postcards. His businesses were highly successful but after the death of his wife in 1906 Alfred decided to retire. Margaret was a graduate and trained as a teacher. Her teaching career started in Featherstone but after a few years she returned to Bradford. Her specialist subject was English and she ended her teaching career at Woodroyd Middle School, West Bowling, Bradford in 1970. Her great passions in life were foreign travel. Margaret joined the Youth Hostel Association in 1931, a year after it was formed. She was a founder member of the Bradford Youth Hostel Association, which celebrated its Golden Jubilee in 1983. Her proudest boast was that she had spent more than 2500 nights in Youth Hostels. She rambled as far a field as New Zealand, Australia, Japan, India, Israel and Canada among others. She kept a list of all the overnight stays she made at hostels, many of them in the Yorkshire Dales, of which she was passionately fond. For many years she led groups on hostel tours in the North of England, took part in working parties carrying out cleaning and decorating chores, and served on the YHA's National Countryside Committee. Margaret also served on the committee of The Council for the Preservation of Rural England (Craven Branch). |

| Individual: William Petyt (id=I1090) General Comment: @NI1090@ On his return to London he obtained a post as one of the Exigenters of the Common Pleas, whose duty it was to make out all writs of exigent and proclamations in cases of outlawry. His duties cannot have occupied a great deal of his time, as he was able to begin building up his legal practice and to indulge his interests in antiquarian, constitutional, and historical studies. His association with the Inner Temple was made closer after the riot in 1669 over the bearing erect of the sword of the Mayor of London within the precincts of the Inn, when he prepared the case for the Inner Temple when its members were summoned before the Council on the compla int of the city. The Inner Temple won their case and Petyt was paid a fee of £20 for his services. On 12th February 1671, William Petyt, for his services done in asserting and defending the rights and privileges of the Temple, was called to the bar of The Inner Temple. He was called to the Bench in 1689, was chosen Reader for Trinity Vacation, in 1694, and became Treasurer, 1701-2. In the meantime Petyt had continued with his historical and legal researches. Almost all his writings dealt with the history of Parliament and were designed to lay the foundations and further the building of the Whig cause, which triumphed in the Great Revolution of 1689, when he got his reward from the government. In that year he was appointed Keeper of the Records in the Tower Of London, a post he held until his death in 1707. William published four books during his lifetime and the Trustees of Silvester Petyt's will published a fifth in 1739. Ancient Rights of the Commons Asserted. 1680 Miscellanea Parliamentaria. 1680 Rights of the Commons Answered. 1681. Lex Parliamentaria. 1690. Jus Parliamentaria. 1739. William had a house at Chelsea and worshiped at Chelsea Old Church. In 17 05 William, with the permission of the Vestry of Chelsea Church, he rebuilt the parish school which then contained a vestry room, a schoolroom and one upper room for lodgings for the schoolmaster. William died at Chelsea in October 1707 and was buried in the Temple Church on 9th October. Later his brother, Silvester had a monument erected, which can still be seen. In his will William left his large and valuable collection of historical manuscripts to the Inner Temple, he also left the Inner Temple £150 to build a library to house his manuscripts and £50 to buy books for the library. He also left £50 for the use of the Grammar school at Skipton. There are three known portraits of William Petyt, one at the Inner Templ e, one at The Public Office at Kew, and one at the Skipton Grammar School. Among noteworthy manuscripts there is an early 12th century Macro bius, and the earliest known Books of Forms in Ecclesiastical Causes, fr om the end of the 13th century. There are works by Sir Francis Bacon, Sir Robert Cotton and Sir Thomas Bodley, and important original letters fr om such personages as William Cecil, Lord Burghley, Sir Edward Coke and Sir Christopher Wren. Items of interest include an original letter of Lady Jane Grey, signed by her as Queen', the original draft of Sir Edward Coke's 12th and 13 th Reports, and a Year Book for a term of Edward I, which seems to be contemporary and which is, besides, unique. There are also autograph letters by Edward VI, Mary and Elizabeth I. By 1709 the new Library had been built. It included the two former rooms ( one of which was to be known as the back library') as well as a new room spacious and handsome. Samuel Carter, an aged and impecunious barrister' was appointed as Library Keeper to attend in the Library as follows: Lady Day to Michaelmas, 9 a.m. - 12, and 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.; Michaelmas to Lady Day, 10 a.m. to 12, and 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. His salary was £20 a yea r. He it was who did the first work on Petyt's books and manuscripts. He produced, besides, a draft catalogue of the books in the Library, dated 171 3, which is still extant, but he died the same year leaving it unfinished. He was succeeded by Joshua Blew, a butler in the Inn, who served for fifty years as Librarian and who, undoubtedly, "was the greatest Librarian of a line of eleven who have served the Society to the present day". On 18th May 1716-17 a Bench Table Order was issued: "No copy or transcript is to be taken by any person of any manuscript books in the Library, and no books to be delivered or taken out of the Library without leave of the Table. This order to be hung up in the Library". Thus was formally established the principle that the Library was essentially for reference and n ot for borrowing. But though the books were now housed either in close pre sses or frames with wire guards the manuscripts seem to have been easily a vailable (at least to Masters of the Bench) and were as often consulted o ut of curiosity as out of need; their availability not being restrict ed in the modern sense until late in the nineteenth century. If in the ear ly days the Library's acquisition of books had been haphazard it was regul ated by a Bench Order of 1713 directing the Treasurer to expend £20 a ye ar on books, but it was the Librarian, Joshua Blew, who was responsible f or the actual purchase of books, often their selection too, their bindin g, and on occasion, the publication of the manuscripts. During his yea rs in office he produced four catalogues. These are notable for the caref ul and accurate annotations to entries, for Blew had all the instinc ts of a good bibliographer. In the eighteenth century the great majority of books purchased were law books; of the books presented the majority were also law books. But antiquarian, historical and literary interests were also held by the members of the Society, and the purchase or presentation of books reflected these interests as is duly recorded in the catalogues subsequently to be issue This diversity of interests, continued to the present though in modified f orm, explains the presence today of many valuable works, all either origin al or second editions: Howard's State of Prisons (1777), Higden's Polychro nicon (1527), Hall's Chronicle (1548), Strutt's Sports and Pastimes (1810 ), Hakluyt's Voyages (1598-1600), Clarendon's History (1702-4), Saxton's A tlas of England and Wales (1579) and, Seller's Atlas Maritime 1678. The list of incunabula acquired is shorter but includes The Nuremberg Chronicle (1493), volumes of statutes printed by Caxton in 1490, as well as two o ut of the three volumes of statues issued by Machlinia, the first of the E nglish law printers. On the whole however the purchase policy towards leg al and allied materials was highly selective, and books had to prove thems elves before they were bought. The forty eight titles purchased in 1723 range in publication date from 1651 onwards but only four of these were current publications. Many problems familiar to modern librarians were already being encountere d. By 1729 as a result of gifts the problem of duplication existed and t he Librarian drew up a list of seventy nine titles for disposal by sale. Books were being supplied by mistake and having to be returned, whilst over charging of bookseller's accounts was not uncommon. The catalogue of 1773, the work of another Librarian, the Rev. William Jef fs, was the last to be in manuscript and was the most scientifically plann ed to date. It was ordered that "The Librarian ... to make a complete Cata logue of all the books in the Library and to range the books relating to t he several subjects they treat upon in distinct presses so as to compo se a separate Library of Law and Equity, Civil Law and Parliamentary proce edings, Classics, General and Biographical History, Theology, Heraldry, Ph ysic, Miscellaneous Books or others relating to any particular scien ce or subject and manuscripts; that in the Catalogue to be made there sha ll be one column to signify the number of the press, another the shelve s, another the name of the book, another the name of the printer and anoth er the date of the year, and that the books may follow in an alphabetic al manner, as much as may be, and that all duplicates may be placed togeth er in two or three presses, and that the same may be completed by the fir st full week in Michaelmas term, and for which this Society do desire h is acceptance of ten guineas." In 1784 Randall Norris, a clerk in the Treasurer's department (he subseque ntly became Sub Treasurer) was appointed Librarian, and it was during h is tenure of office that the earliest printed catalogue, dated 1806, was i ssued. The surviving evidence suggests that the appointment of Norris w as not a happy one. His intellect was not powerful and he possessed no ne of the qualities that make a true librarian. When he died in 1827 Charl es Lamb wrote a famous letter about him to Crabbe Robinson: "In him I ha ve a loss the world cannot make up. He was my friend, and my father's frie nd, all the life I can remember. I seem to have made foolish friendships e ver since ... To the last he called me Charley. I have none to call me Cha rley now. Letters he knew nothing of, nor did his reading extend beyond t he Gentleman's Magazine. Yet there was a pride of Literature about him fr om being among books (he was Librarian) and from scraps of doubtful Lat in which he had picked up in his office of entering new students, that ga ve him very diverting airs of pedantry. Can I forget the erudite look wi th which, when he had been in vain trying to make out a black letter te xt of Chaucer in the Temple Library, he laid it down and told me that " in these old books, Charley, there is sometimes a deal of indifferent spel ling", and seemed to console himself in the refection". -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------- Dora took the name Pettyt from a book. It was a book of biography entitl ed "Great Men of Great Britain, a second thousandth printing, publish ed by Charles Griffin and Company Stationer's Hall Court, London. "I chose the name Pettyt because the man in question seemed to have su ch an interesting job. He was the Keeper of the Tower Records, and auth or of writings on the Ancient Constitution of Parliament. He was born in 1 636 and died in 1707. Originally he was to have been my central characte r, but then I found that he had been 'bewiytched' by a peasant girl, Ann a, whom he purchased for a bride on her thirteenth birthday. When I read M uggleton's description of the dress, and the time in which he lived, the d ress just seemed perfect for Anna. After all, William Pettyt, the Keep er of Tower Records, was an insanely jealous man. It all just came togethe r. Anna the fiction became more real by having an historical character cou rt, and marry her. William Pettyt had that most magnificent gown 'in the k nown worlde' made specifically to conceal the beauty of his possession…a nd of course his 'possession' more completely possessed him than he posses sed her…" The Last Will and Testament of William Petyt (dated 12th July 1705) the name of God Amen. I WILLIAM PETYT late Treasurer of the Inner Temple, London Esq., and Keeper of Her Majesty's records in the Tower of London do make this my last will and testament in manner and form following.

| Individual: Sylvester Petty (id=I1320) General Comment: @NI1320@ The death in action of Private Sylvester Petty has been officially notified. Pte. Petty had been in France since April last and had taken part in several engagements prior to his death, which is said to have been instantaneous. It is inferred that his Battalion took part in the capture of Le Sars on the Somme on the 7th of October, on which day he was killed. Pte. Petty joined the West Yorkshire Regiment in February 1915, and had therefore served 20 months with the Colours. He was born at Sutton Mill 30 years ago, and his family have had a very long settlement at Sutton. He was for many years connected with the Sutton Baptist School and Chapel and was a fine type of soldier. For the past few years Pte. Petty had resided in Spencer Street, Keighley, with his sister, both parents having pre-deceased him. 27 October 1916 <craven_herald_articles.cfm?sID=185-01&arID=1> 27 October 1916 <craven_herald_articles.cfm?sID=185-01&arID=2> 10 November 1916 <craven_herald_articles.cfm?sID=185-01&arID=3> Article Date: 27 October 1916 PRIVATE SYLVESTER PETTY KILLED News has been received that Private Sylvester Petty, a former Sutton boy, has been killed in action 'somewhere in France'. Private Petty was a member of an old Sutton family, and when he resided in the district was an ardent follower and supporter of the Sutton United Football Club. He was also closely connected with the Sutton Baptist Church and Sunday School. He was employed as a house painter and decorator, an occupation which he relinquished at the outbreak of hostilities to join the West Riding Regiment (Bradford 'Pals'). After training at Ripon and other places he went with his regiment to France. Private Petty left the district a few years ago to take up his residence, along with his sister, in Keighley. He was about 31 years of age.

| Individual: Sir Daniel Fleming (id=I1484) General Comment: @NI1484@ People of wealth distributed presents to the entire community on a lavish scale. An example was the funeral which a rich Cumbrian gentleman named Daniel Fleming of Rydal Hall arranged for his wife, who died 13 April 1675, two days after having given birth to her fourteenth child. Her grieving husband ordered six quires of paper (150 large sheets) for folding "sweetmeats." He also ordered that the poor of Cumberland should receive four pennies apiece, and for that purpose he set aside the sum of 30 pounds, ten shillings, and four pence enough for 1,831 poor people. Daniel Fleming also spent another large sum on ringing, singing, sermons, gravemaking, and a "coffin and clasp." But this was an exceptional event. Coffins were not generally used in this impoverished region. Borderers were buried in cloth sacks. A statue of 1678 required that south of the Scottish border, only English wool could be used. The Scots and Irish preferred linen, but in most respects the customs were much the same. |

PETTY A concert was held in the Wesleyan Schoolroom on Saturday evening. The Chairman was Lieutenant C. Henry Petty, of Lingsted, Crosshills, who has been wounded while fighting in France. The Rev. Thomas Dargue said Lieut. Petty had been in their thoughts a good deal lately, especially a few weeks ago. He had seen life as many of them were never likely to see it, and he thanked God he was safe and well again. He was certain they would give him a hearty welcome. Lieutenant Petty said he could not say how pleased he was to be asked to occupy that position. He did not mind saying "Form fours" to soldiers, or greeting a General, but making a speech was rather different. He would like to say how much the men at the Front appreciated the socks and things the ladies at home sent out to them. Perhaps they did not always write letters of appreciation, but it was there, and now that winter was coming on again there was a need of warm clothing for protection against frost bite. A clean pair of socks was the best gift a soldier could receive. The concert was sustained by Mrs. C. Denby (Cross Roads), soprano; Mrs. H. Ratcliffe (Oxenhope), contralto; Messrs. Arthur J. P. Heaton and F. G. Pedley (Oxenhope), tenors; and Mr. W. Moore (Oxenhope). They provided an excellent programme of songs, duets, trios and quartets. The accompanist was Miss Lena Smith, L.R.A.M., of Bradley. The programme was interspersed with dramatic and humorous recitals by Mr. M. G. Ogden, elocutionist, of Oxenhope. There was a large audience, and the proceeds, which are to provide wool for the making of comforts for the soldiers, amounted to £10 10s. 17 June 1921 Above is reproduced a photograph of the late Mr. Charles Henry Petty, son of Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Petty, Lingsted, Crosshills, whose death was announced in the 'Craven Herald' last week. Mr. Petty, who was 29 years of age, was in business with his father as a yarn merchant in Bradford, and was an ardent golfer. Article Date: 01 July 1921 GLUSBURN - LOCAL EDUCATION MATTERS: The Late Mr. C. H. Petty A monthly meeting of the Glusburn District Education Sub-Committee was held on Monday evening last at the Glusburn Council School, Mr. E. Binns (chairman) presiding. The other members present were Messrs. H. R. Thomas, W. R. Alderson, J. W. Whitaker, J. Dixon, F. J. Wilson, J. Pearson, L. Preston, A. Smith, C. Weatherall and S. Emmott, with the Divisional Clerk (Mr. B. Thornton). At the outset the chairman proposed that a message of condolence be sent to Mr. and Mrs. F. W. Petty on the death of their son, Mr. C. H. Petty. The chairman having referred to Mrs. Petty's connection with the Sub-Committee and her interest in local education matters, described the late Mr. Petty as "a most lovable lad," who served his country in the greatest crisis it has ever known. No doubt his early death was precipitated by the wounds he received in the war. Mr. Thomas seconded the resolution, which was carried by the members rising in their places. |

| Individual: Alfred Coe (id=I2372) General Comment: @NI2372@ Alfred Coe was born at Undercliffe on 12 February 1851. He was the son of Bridget and John Coe, whose occupation is given as clothier on Alfred's birth certificate. As yet we have no information about the early life of Alfred, and only one clue has come to light concerning his original occupation. His trade is listed on the birth certificate of his third child born in 1879 as warp twister. Alfred married Mary Rushforth, whose family is believed to have hailed from the Kendal and Carlisle regions, in about 1872. Alfred and Mary had four children; Clara, Albert, Violet and Emily born between 1874 and 1881. Alfred appears to have become interested in photography through members of his wife's family: there were Rushforths established as photographers in Barnsley by the early 1870s. How early in his life this interest began is not known but he may eventually have served some form of apprenticeship to the trade with the well known Bradford photographers, Albert Sachs. Evidence is only slight on this point and far from conclusive. At this time the Coe family resided at 27 Walnut Street, Leeds Road but by 1885 Alfred ventured into business as a photographer and the family moved to 10 Fearnley Street, Otley Road. In trade directories of the period this was also given as Alfred's business address. The family moved several times within a very short period; in 1887 they resided at 224 Otley Road. then 123 Peckover Street in 1888, 6 Stott Hill in 1892 and 32 Church Bank in 1895. The photographic business appears to have thrived during this period and eventually found a more permanent address at 2 Barkerend Road where it appears to have remained for almost twenty years. The family's last known home address seems to have been Hillside Villas where they moved in 1903. When Alfred Coe ventured into producing and printing postcards is not precisely known but he was certainly deeply involved in collotype printing by the middle 1890s. It seems that he formed the Coe Collotype Company during the early 1890s and ran it entirely separate from his photographic business. The process of collotype printing was extensively used on the production of view postcards around the turn of the century; it, reproduced exactly the original photographic image on to ordinary printing paper. The process is derived from the application of photography to lithograp hic printing and was first developed in France around 1865. Alfred must have been keenly interested in this process from the start and used his skills to develop it further. The discovery of two detailed patents, one dated 23 January 1899 and the other 25 April 1902, prove this beyond doubt. Whether these patents resulted in financial gains is not known. The first postcards to appear produced by the Coe Collotype Company were probably from around the time of the first patent. In 1901 the company occupied premises at 13 Chapel Street, Leeds Road and like many postcard manufacturers of the period they developed rapidly By the following year they had moved to larger premises at 44 Vicar Lane where they employed over forty people. An extract from The Stationer & Printer trade journal for March 1904 gives the following information: 'Inventors of Coe Collotype Printing Machine. Floor space at their premises has trebled recently, and fourth time in four years that premises have been extended. They have also moved three times.' Initially their work consisted mainly of local views, one of the earliest series being 'The Old Bradford Series'. At least sixty cards are known to have been issued, many untitled and they are certainly not numbered, making it extremely difficult to know precisely how many different cards were produced. The set first appeared in late 1902 or early 1903 and they show fine sepia reproductions of the well known series of water colour paintings by N.S. Crichton and Arthur North showing Bradford and its many characters during the latter part of the 19th century. The company does not appear to have produced cards for sale nationwide but several examples have come to light which demonstrate only too well th at Alfred often ventured far from the boundary of Bradford. View cards have been discovered depicting places as far apart as Blaenau Festiniog and Morecambe. Even foreign views were issued which are believed to have come from photographs he took during at least one overseas holiday. An undated and untitled family album of Alfred's contains views of Gibraltar and France. Alfred was certainly a man of imagination and humour. He ventured into producing many comic cards, including a whole series issued at the time of the Boer War entitled 'South African Fashion Plates'. There were also others which went under such titles as 'The Continental Series' and 'The Publication Series'. Each card was a pun on words, for instance in the former we get 'America - A-Merry-Cur': the card shows a dog with a bowler hat, cane bow tie and a glass of beer!. Also, 'Australia -Hos-Trail-Yur?': a gain we see a man being pulled on a rope behind a horse being dragged through a cactus! The Coe Collotype Company undoubtedly reached its zenith in 1904. In that year they were awarded a bronze medal at the International Printing, Stationery & Allied Trades Exhibition held in London. Wording on the medallion reads 'Awarded to the Coe Collotype Co. Bradford, for collotype postcards'. 1904 also saw the opening of the Bradford Exhibition, an event of international scale which produced a flood of souvenir postcards. The majority. but not all, were produced locally and the Coe Collotype Company probably issued more than any other company They ranged from pre-exhibition issues which were on sale before the event opened to yet again comic cards. Some of the hundreds of cards produced by Alfred's company were carefully numbered so we can gain some idea of the vast number they manufactured. Perhaps the most fascinating were a now scarce series of midget postcards. about the size of half a standard card: such novelties were popular at the time. This unusual series was rarely titled, therefore making it difficu lt to identify today. Twenty one have been discovered to date, all from local sources which seems to point to the fact that they were probably not sold in large quantities. Recent evidence shows that Alfred Coe's photographic business went into liquidation by at least November 1905. Whether the collotype printing section suffered the same fate is not known. Following this there is evidence that Alfred may have gone into partnership for a short time, as in the 1906 Post Office Directory we find a Coe and Beaumont listed at 7 Little Horton Lane. It seems more than a coincidence that these premises were occupied from as early as 1861 by Appleton & Co., probably the most famous of all local Victorian photographers. Another strange link in our story is that Charles Judson, Emily Coe's husband, is also listed as a photographer at the same address. Mr Judson became head of the art department at the Bradford Telegraph & Argus but we know nothing of his activities as a photographer. The link with the Appleton concern is perhaps more than coincidental: the Appletons were close friends and amongst the extensive collection of Alfred's family photograp s we find a carefully titled portrait of a small boy aged about ten. The boy was to gain eminence in another direction entirely, for the titling, done by Alfred's daughter some years after the photograph was taken, tells us that the boy is Sir Edward Appleton, the scientist but at the time just another member of the family, no doubt well known to Alfred. Facts concerning other aspects of the business elude us but two personal tragedies in Alfred's life perhaps give a clue to what happened. On 13 Apr il 1901 Albert, his only son, died at the tragically early age of twenty f ive. We know little about this young man, he was artistically gifted like his father and spent some time at art school but whether or not he helped Alfred in the business is not known. Five years later Alfred's wife, Mary died on 25 October 1906. The impression gained from this is that Alfred had had enough and quite possibly his thriving business suffered. Not long after his wife had passed away he decided to emigrate to the United States with his eldest unmarried daughter, Clara. They lived in Florida and the Catskill Mountains regions for a time and Alfred seems to have been content to spend a quiet undisturbed retirement. Sadly on 5 November 1917 he was struck by a car whilst out walking in Mount Vernon, New York State, where he lived at the ti me - a tragic end to a gifted man. What became of Alfred's three surviving daughters? Clara, who had emigrated to America with him. spent the rest of her life there. Emily, the youngest of Alfred's children had no connection with the business, even though she was certainly artistically gifted like most the family More is known about Violet than any of Alfred's other children. She became involved with Alfred's photographic business and helped with the developing process - she often complained about the chemicals affecting her skin. It is quite possible many of the photographs were actually taken by Violet; at the age of thirteen she won first prize in amateur photography at Sunday School in 1892. When Violet was married to Harry Petyt, a millinery salesman. on 9 September 1903, her profession on the marriage certificate was given as photographer's assistant. Violet lived until she was 77 and passed a way in 1956. The postcard manufacturing industry from about 1898 to around 1910 was astoundingly successful but several entrepreneurs of the period both made and lost fortunes. Sadly it seems Alfred Coe suffered the latter but what influence or importance did he have as both a photographer and postcard man ufacturer? Fortunately many of his personal family photographs survive and we gather from these and others that he had a very innovative approach to portraiture work at least. Locally he probably ranked amongst the top four photographers. He was not unique as a local postcard manufacturer Percy Lund, Humphries & Co., M. Field, T.M. Woodhead and others all produced large quantities of postcards around the same period - but he does appear to have been unique in the scope of work he produced. We have already mentioned the comic cards and the Bradford Exhibition souvenirs. Local views by the Coe Company were issued in great profusion: it seems that none were issued in series but just simply produced as quickly and in as large a number as possible. They range from views of the central Bradford area to many of the outlying districts such as Idle, Clayton and Heaton. Quality was very good and it's obvious he attached great importance to this because of the patented improvements he made to the colloty pe process he used. He probably lacked sufficient distribution skills to rank amongst the great national and international postcard manufacturers such as Raphael Tuck and Valentine's, and there were others in a similar position throughout the country. His work is important though, and his status in the history of the industry has never been recognised for what it should be. To Alfred we owe much; he left more than just a "window on the past". |

| Individual: Theophilus Petty (id=I2737) General Comment: @NI2737@ http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=calciskid2006&id=I106976 Theophilus Paty, as did many other men of wealth, left England and sailed to the Barbados Islands. Some say they were on their way to the new country and had to stop at the Islands because of the storm season. What ever, Theophilus stayed on the Island for several years. He met and married his wife Elizabeth Baker. He may not have been the only Paty to settle on the Island, as there are still members of this clan there today. He and his family moved to Charles Town, where his first home was built next door to the Governor. The first settlement had to be moved across the bay because of the huge storms or hurricanes that came almost yearly and flooded out the low laying land. Here Theophilu bought many town lots and other property on what is now called James Island. Bricks from parts of one of the main plantations that Theophilus built were used to rebuild the plantation house that stands today. It is now open to visitors and several movies have been filmed here, including parts of "Gone with the Wind". You can find information on it at: http//www. boonehallplantation.com Theophilus had a daughter, Elizabeth, who married Major John Boone. He gave the plantation to her as a wedding gift, thus it is now called Boone Hall. Warrants for lands in South Carolina, 1672-1711, A.S.

| Individual: John Aked Taylor (id=I2800) General Comment: @NI2800@ During the Second World War he served with the Royal Signals in Norway, the Middle East, Sicily, north west Europe and the Far East, leaving with the rank of Major in 1945. Lord Ingrow became managing director and chairman of Taylor's in 1954, stepping down in 1995 when he was made life president. Charles Dent present managing director and Lord Ingrow's son-in-law said his predecessor had ensured the company's survival with "shrewd financial management" and the "best traditional brewing practice". Mr Dent added: "He continually developed and strengthened the company through the quality and reputation of its beers, which have won most of the major brewing awards. "The qualities he expected of honesty, accuracy, economy and excellence are still keystones on which Timothy Taylor continues its business. "He will be very sadly missed by all who knew him but the principles he established continue to drive the philosophy of everyone at the brewery." But he is perhaps equally renowned for his long-serving commitment to the Conservative Party, which he joined as a Young Conservative. He was the youngest ever chairman of Keighley's Education Committee at the age of 32 in 1949 and was just 38 when he was elected as Mayor of the former Keighley Borough Council. Over the years he has chaired Keighley Conservative Assoc-iation (for ten years, Yorkshire Area Conservative Association and the national executive committee of the National Union of Conservative and Unionist Associations. Brian Carr a former treasurer of Keighley Conservative Party who worked alongside Lord Ingrow said: "The more I saw him the more I admired his qualities. "He had a very easy hand and he was very much respected and liked." John Aked Taylor was awarded an OBE in 1960, a knighthood in 1972 and given the title Baron Ingrow in 1982 when he was made a life peer. He was appointed Lord Lieutenant of West Yorkshire in 1985, which required him to act as host to 87 royal visits to the region, escort the Royal Family on 220 engagements and present various medals and commendations on behalf of the Queen. He also served as a magistrate for 38 years and a member of the Magistrates' Association, president of the Yorkshire and Humberside Territorial Army Volunteer Reserve Association and General Commissioner of Income Tax (1965-92). In 1986 he was created a Knight of the Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem and served as President of the Council of the Order of St John in South and West Yorkshire until 1992. He was also patron of the Keighley Gala. His later years were blighted by Parkinson's Disease, which eventually saw him retire from public life and led to his death on Thursday, February 7 at the age of 84. Lady Ingrow had died of cancer in 1998. Lord Ingrow leaves his two daughters and four grandchildren. His funeral will be held at 11.30am on Monday, February 25 at Keighley Shared Church. |
| Individual: Barbara Mary Stirk (id=I2801) General Comment: @NI2801@ Lady Ingrow, the wife of former Timothy Taylor brewery head Lord Ingrow, has died aged 74 from cancer. The former Keighley mayoress had an eventful life even before meeting the man who became one of the town's most foremost figures. As a young woman she helped rescue spies from behind the Iron Curtain following the Second World War. And over the next few decades she was active in several charities including the RNLI, NSPCC, British Legion and Meals on Wheels. Lady Ingrow also supported her husband's public career as a magistrate, mayor, Lord Lieutenant and high-ranking Conservative Party member. Her daughters Anne and Diana, who live in Wetherby, this week spoke of their mother as a very kind, loving, elegant and thoughtful woman. Diana said: "She got on with everyone and always had time for them. She was respected by people from all corners of life." Lady Ingrow was born Barbara Mary Stirk in Keighley in 1923 and, apart from studies at Malvern Girls' College, lived all her life in the town. She spent the war in the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry, attached to Special Operations, and at war's end served in Czechoslovakia helping British agents escape. Lady Ingrow met her husband through friends, marrying in 1949, and gave birth to Anne and Diana in the early 1950s. For about 20 years she was a director of her husband's family firm, the Ingrow-based brewery Timothy Taylors. She became Lady Taylor when her husband was knighted in 1972 and a decade later, after he became a life peer, she became Lady Ingrow. Her daughters this week told how Lady Ingrow joked that she had to spend her wedding anniversary each year at the Conservative Party Conference. But they said their mother gave strong support to her husband in his public and working life. Lady Ingrow, who had four grandchildren, was also a keen gardener, antique collector and supporter of the Sea Cadets. |
