And Bygone Memories
We have been very busy this month with look-ups for new
members Christine and myself have found a lot of different
finds so we are very please with this last months work.
We have these two groups and also a dolls house group which
we have started but not a lot on it at the moment its only because
I have the hobby of dolls houses that this was started.
We enjoy doing the groups as it’s all-free for all our members
but we also take on private people if they have any brick walls.
I was never off the phone to auntie asking questions which she
tried to tell me what she knew and as she spoke I was at the
other end writing it all down some things did not fit in but I still
jotted every thing down what she had said I enrolled at a local
Mormon church just up the road from me where I booked a
fiche reader and films I actually did not know what I was
looking for at all but they did help me a lot so I went there for
about 2 years but did not seem to be getting any further with my
tree and then my auntie died suddenly so she would never know
any out come in later years .
After about 2 years I did get all the names down and put them
into order and had what looked like a family tree so I was
getting some where at last ,I then order the family tree magazine
and used to read up on different things which helped me where
to find things and where to go etc I had seemed to be doing this
tree for a few years and came to lots of brick walls as we call it
so I wrote to a researcher that used to write in the family tree
magazine and asked for help to check out what I had done so far
think on I had been doing this tree for nearly 4 years and was
getting no where so I sent him all I had and a few weeks later he
informed me that I had got the wrong family In my tree I had a
Daniel Powell who was my gt gt granddad and my auntie had
said he was from Wales so on that line I went in fact that was all
wrong he was born in Kent in Woolwich so after a few months
of putting it all straight and the help of the researcher I was on
the right track ,So that was my first pitfall in genealogy .
He told me that if you suddenly find that it does not look right
its because you have the wrong person so from then on I learnt a
lot from this man and he is still a good friend as well now after
all these years now I know where to look and search.
So please when first starting out don’t make the same mistake as
I did.
EARLY DONCASTER
Doncaster began when the Romans built a fort in the area about 71
AD. The Romans called the fort Danum. However in the 4th century
Roman civilisation declined and the last Roman soldiers left Britain in
407 AD.
After the Romans left the Saxons invaded Eastern England. The
Saxons called a Roman fort a ceaster. When they arrived in South
Yorkshire they called this one Don ceaster. In time the name
changed to Doncaster and they created a village nearby.
In the 12th century Doncaster grew into a busy town. In 1194 King
Richard I gave Doncaster a charter (a document granting or
confirming certain rights). In the Middle Ages Doncaster was a busy
little market town although it would seem tiny to us. In 1204
Doncaster suffered a disastrous fire. In the Middle Ages most
buildings were of wood so fire was a constant hazard. On the other
hand if buildings did burn they could be easily be replaced.
The street name gate is derived from the old Danish word 'gata'
which meant street. In Medieval towns craftsmen of one type tended
to live in the same street. Baxter is an old word for baker so
Baxtergate in Doncaster was the baker's street. Frenchgate may be
named after French speaking Normans who settled there.
In the 14th century friars arrived in Doncaster. The friars were like
monks but instead of withdrawing from the world they went out to
preach. In 1307 Franciscan friars arrived in Doncaster. They were
called grey friars because of the colour of their costumes. Carmelites
or white friars arrived in the middle of the 14th century.
During the 16th and 17th centuries the little market town of Doncaster
continued to grow. This was despite outbreaks of plague in 1562,
1582, 1583, 1604 and 1606. Each time plague struck a significant
part of the town's population perished but each time it recovered.
MODERN DONCASTER
A new Guildhall was built in 1847 and a Corn Exchange, where grain
was bought and sold was built in 1873.Meanwhile the railway
reached Doncaster in 1849. Railways meant the end of the
stagecoaches but they brought new prosperity to the town. The first
public library in Doncaster opened in 1869.
In 1853 the Great Northern Railway moved its engine building works
from Boston to Doncaster. The engine works became the main
employer in the town. In the late 19th and 20th centuries industry in
Doncaster was dominated by engineering. Furthermore in the 20th
century Doncaster became known for its butterscotch. In the 1970s 2
new shopping centres were built in Doncaster, the Frenchgate Centre
(originally called the Arndale Centre) and the Waterdale Centre.
