Items related to History of Myddle
Written between the years 1700 and 1706, Richard Gough's history of Myddle in Shropshire is a biographical profile of a complete village during the 17th century. Gough wrote brief biographies of many of the people living in the village, derived from his own personal experience and observation spanning the period from the civil war up to the beginning of the 18th century. The present edition is introduced by Dr Peter Razell, with a text which has been edited and modernized so as to eliminate material of purely antiquarian interest. This newly-set edition may be of interest to social historians, sociologists and the general reading public.

He was getting on in years and knew all about his neighbours - who owned what land, who married who, who their parents were and what land they either owned or leased and who had what skeletons in the cupboard. He wrote his book about the inhabitants using the seating plan of the church as a framework so, at a time when church attendance was all but compulsory, almost all the inhabitants of Myddle were included. He was writing in the early 1700s but as he was also recalling his memories of the ancestors of the people his information goes well back into the seventeenth century. You can read how the Civil War, the Protectorate of Oliver Cromwell, the Restoration, enclosures of land, the workings of the Poor Law and the plague affected the people of Myddle."; 8.1 X 5.3 X 1.2 inches; 334 pages.
