The Great Fire of Baddow

William Chiddicks is my 1st Cousin 4 x removed and for whatever reason, he was not one of those ancestors that I was immediately drawn to. I had his Baptism record, he was baptised on 8th March 1835 in South Fambridge, Essex, I had his marriage record, he married Mary Ann Waite Watson on 18th October 1856 in South Fambridge in Essex and I had his burial record, he was buried on 3rd March 1917 in…

Summary

In his latest blog, Paul Chiddicks asks – is there more to family history than just names and dates?

I remember when I first started researching my family history many years ago, I felt like a bit of a ‘collector’ really. But…

‘Standing up and peeling off of nanosized shish-kebab structures formed in melt-spun high density polyethylene and nylon 6/clay nanohybrid fibres’

by Wiebke F. C. Sager, Peter Grünberg Institute, Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany.

Abstract:

Shish-kebab structures are known to develop after cessation of flow from semicrystalline polymer melts and/or upon uniaxial drawing in the processing of polymer films and fibres. The prenucleating shish is commonly assumed to align with the flow direction inducing orthogonal crystallisation of kebab-forming folded chain lamellae. Here we combine results from transmission electron microscopy (TEM), wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and/or small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) to follow the microstructural evolution of the fibres upon drawing. For the high density polyethylene (HDPE) fibres we evidence for the first time a horizontal alignment of the main part of the shish-kebab nanostructures and therewith a…

Grave Danger!

How can we protect the burial sites and graveyards from future developments and how do we ensure that the remains of those loved ones are treated with both dignity and respect?

This is a topic that is close to my heart as I have previously lead a campaign myself, against a Developer being granted planning permission, to build over consecrated land at an Independent chapel in South Ockendon, in…

The Night's are drawing in.............

The Night’s are drawing in………….

So Autumn has finally arrived which means winter is just around the corner. Dark nights and dark mornings and cold, wet and windy weather.

What can we do to occupy us and see us through those cold dark nights?

There is nothing better than sitting in a nice warm room, maybe by an open fire and carrying out some “treeing” in the comfort of your armchair.

Maybe sort out some old notes, maybe make…

Not all family tree stories are filled with happiness and joy, take the tragic incident that occurred in 1920 at The Lower House Farm in Byford and the tragic shooting and killing of a six year old boy.

The following incident was reported in the Hereford Journal of 7th August 1920

Terrible Fatality at Byford

Little Boy Accidentally Killed by Shot Gun

Hereford Farmhouse Tragedy

  A great sensation has been caused in the Village of Byford, near Hereford, by the tragic death today of a little boy on a visit to Lower House Farm.

It appears that the lad was accidentally shot by another boy who was climbing over a wall and came into contact with a shotgun which had been left there.

A terrible fatality occurred at Byford on Thursday evening, by which Alfred Arthur Grayson, a little boy aged Six years, was instantly killed.

With his Mother, he was on a visit to Mr. John Wootton’s Lower House Farm, Byford and he was filling a bucket with water, at the pump, when a loaded gun, which had been left lying on a wall not far away, was discharged accidentally by another boy who happened to climb the wall at that particular spot. the shot entered Grayson’s head and caused instant death. The report of the gun caused alarm, which was increased to consternation on the poor little fellow being found lying dead.

The sad facts have been reported by P.C. Williams of Staunton-on-Wye, to the County Coroner and an inquest will be held.

The tragic occurrence caused a great sensation in the Bridge Sollers and Preston-on-Wye Districts and much sympathy is felt for the bereaved and parents and all concerned.

What a sad and tragic tale this is.

  John Wootton is my 2 x Great grand Uncle, seen here in this picture, the picture is kindly provided by Avril French

Subsequent  newspaper articles cover the coroners inquest into the tragic circumstances of this accident and how the gun was accidentally and inadvertently fired.

  John Henry Wootton sadly died on 3rd November 1946 from falling from an apple tree…….its a strange old world

    The Tragic Fatality at Lower House Farm Not all family tree stories are filled with happiness and joy, take the tragic incident that occurred in 1920 at The Lower House Farm in Byford and the tragic shooting and killing of a six year old boy.
