Thank you Victor. 200 years ago, might a business owner have lived and worked at such a location? I have been to Hull only briefly and can't picture it. I have been around the modern yacht basin so was near here without realising it. I suspect dying would have been a messy and perhaps smelly industry so perhaps essentially non residential, particularly if it had been profitable. From the map aerial view, the Blanket Row area appears a wasteland at present.

Bill I would say yes the owner would have lived on the premises in those days. As you say Blanket Row looks like a waste land and I would say it is. I remember the area form the 50's and 60's when Princess and Humber Docks were busy docks and unloaded lots of cargo into warehouses along Humber Dock Road. The whole area was a busy market area dealing with goods unloaded from the ships. Nowadays I think it still deals with goods but in a smaller way. I don't live in Hull these days so have no idea how busy that area is during the week You may like to look at this site and see if there are any business records http://www.hullcc.gov.uk/portal/page?_pageid=221,52893&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL You also may like to check this one about electoral registers http://www.hullcc.gov.uk/portal/page?_pageid=221,98595&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL And this one which shows historical photographs of Hull http://www.hullcc.gov.uk/portal/page?_pageid=221,108079&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL It is currently unavailable so I was unable to check about Blanket Row Victor Bill Webster wrote: > Thank you Victor. > > 200 years ago, might a business owner have lived and worked at such a > location?

Further to my earlier post, the excellent staff at Hull Local Studies Library advise that an 1823 directory lists 9 companies of dyers, of whom 8 were silk dyers, which I find a surprisingly large number. The 1803 and 1810/11 directories list GREENWOOD & CO, Silk & Muslin Dyers at premises 16 BLANKET ROW, Hull. Can anyone help me with 16 Blanket Row, its location, and if anyone resided there in early censuses or directories?

How common was the name Deborah in the 1700s? I would appreciate an indication from members if they have this name in their researches. I have got the impression that it was not common. It was given by a couple to their first child, baptised Hull Holy Trinity 1764. It could be a family Christian name. Bill.
In 1700, Deborah ranked 25th in the list of top fifty names for girls. This would be a national average, and there could be local variations. Houwever, there is good reason to think this was a family name; don't forget to include the female side, and go back a generation or two. The top 5 names were Mary, Elizabeth, Ann, Sarah and Jane.

Chris I was born and brought up in Hessle and saw all the signs round the area which said Haltemprice UDC. I have lived away for sometime but guess the UDC was abolished when the county Admin boundaries were revised in 1974 when East Riding of Yorkshire became that dreadful name of Humberside. Happily it has changed back to East Yorkshire (not quite the same as it used to be). I think the area covering part of Haltemprice became Beverley and the former Headquarters of Haltemprice at Anlaby House was closed. After years of derelict Anlaby House has now been restored and converted to flats. You are correct in saying that Haltemprice is a Parliament Constituency. To be honest until Colin mentioned Howden Price I had never heard of it. Had I remained at Hessle High School (I left to go to another school in Berkshire at 13) to the end I may have learned about this. Next time I visit my siblings in the area I will ask them about it.

Victor, Colin's query is to Howden Price in the parish of Cottingham, hence my suggestion. The modern Haltemprice appears on Morden's map of the East Riding (18th century) as Howdenprice and also on Blaeu's 17th century map of the East Riding as Howdenprice. It's interesting the name was used for the UDC. When was the UDC abolished? I think that Haltemprice was (is?) also used as the name of a parliamentary constituency.

Anyone know of the history of silk dying in Hull? Would they have been members of a guild? A newspaper entry reports a death: Richard Webster Greenwood, son of JOHN GREENWOOD of Hull, silk-dyer 2/12/1814 on his passage to India. Bill
Haltemprice was an Urban District Council. It covered the areas bounded by Cottingham, Willerby, Anlaby, Hessle and North Ferriby. This council was formed after the war with offices at Anlaby House, Anlaby. The first Chairman of the Council happened to be my grandfather. You are correct about Haltemprice Priory. There is a coat of arms of this Priory on the Cottingham web site at http://www.cottinghamuk.co.uk/pic.asp?cmd=7&search=haltemprice&submit1=Search&num=10 I doubt if this has anything to do with Howden Price which looks as if it is in Howden (near Goole) but I stand to be corrected Victor Chris W wrote: > Colin, > > > Howden Price:- I think this refers to Haltemprice just > south of Cottingham village.

I wonder if there are some transcribing errors that have crept in. Could Warter Hall be Warter Priory, now a 'gentlemen's residence' and could be referred as 'hall'. It is/was owned by the Vestey family (the meat firm). Similarly, Neville Grange fould possibly be a misreading(not by you of course) of 'Leven Grange', about a half south of Leven villagee Richard Dawson ______________________________________________ Protect children against online threats - http://www.tiscali.co.uk/protection
