    1. [WESTALL] Booth Winkley Westall b 1844, Manchester, Lancashire, Eng.
    2. Bob Westall
    3. Those interested in Lancashire does the following ring a bell with anyone. I believe Booth's father may have been Booth Westall but as can be seen there is no English Census that gives me Booth's parents? As can be seen I do not seen where Booth has any issue? A Booth Westall shows up in the 1850 US Census living in VA and he was born in England ca 1800! Oh well no one said it would be easy! Any assist on this will be appreciated.

    2. Bob Westall
    3. Fred, For just under 10 Sterling I got the "East Ilsley in the 1830's (an interactive map and terrier listing)" today in the mail from Sigma Books of England. It has the following: Thomas Westall lived on plot 126 which was on High Street Norh. It was a Cottage and Garden owned by Miss Frogley. John Westall lived on plot 37 which was on Cow Lane Norh. It was a Cottage and Garden owned by Widow Butler. Interestingly Thomas shows as living on Cow Lane in the 1841 English Census not John? Fred there is a John Westall living in Ashbury, Shrivenham, Berkshire with the following household. Could that be our John Westall?

    1. [WESTALL] Thomas WESTALL c 1805, Reading, shoe maker
    2. Margaret Wilkinson
    3. Thomas WESTALL was my 3G grandfather, and I have looked for him with no luck at all in 1841 census. Should have son Thomas (John) WESTALL born 1833, possibly wife Maria, +/- any siblings of Thomas John. Thomas WESTALL snr and jnr were both shoemakers. 'The Proceedings of the Old Bailey, 1674-1913' have increased their online records recently, and I think I may have tracked Thomas snr down in 1846. http://www.oldbaileyonline.org/browse.jsp?id=t18470705-name-587&div=t18470705-1661&terms=shoemaker#highlight At the trial of one MARY ANN GRANTON alias Maids for murder, ---THOMAS WESTALL.

    3. Bob: Chester WESTALL and Omar WESTALL are part of my family line; Chester is my grandfather. The census spelling is incorrect as it should have been WESTELL. The family had changed their name from WAISTELL to WESTELL around 1900. My WAISTELLs had come from Westmorland, Engalnd in 1835 and had settled first in the Weston area and later in Middlesex County in Ontario. Other spellings that I have seen in the variouscensus include WESTLE as well as the above.

The strike marked one of the few occasions in British history that troops have been deployed against striking workers. The strike began on August 1, 1910, when miners employed by the Naval Colliery Company at the Ely Pit in the town of Penygraig arrived at work to find lockout notices attached to the entrances of the mine. The company and pit made up part of the Cambrian Combine, a business network founded in 1906 of all of the mining companies in South Wales formed to regulate prices and wages while still allowing each individual company to operate independently. The months that followed became one of the bitterest disputes the miners of South Wales were ever to be engaged in, and one that would affect every miner who worked in a Cambrian Combine pit. The build up to the strike had begun the year previously, when the management of the Ely Pit had taken the decision to open up a new seam and have it mined by 80 men for a trial period in order to determine its output. The miners of the pit were employed on the basis of piecework, pay being dependent on the amount of coal extracted by each individual worker. If a miner failed to reach a certain amount, the company would give an allowance to the miner in question to make up his pay to the minimum that was required in order to live. Given the nature of this pay system, the test period of the new seam to determine it's output and to allow the company to set a wage per ton of coal extracted would also determine the amount the company was likely to have to pay miners who would work on the seam in future. Some months into the test period of the new seam, the company began to accuse the men working on it of deliberately working slowly in order to raise the amount that would be paid per ton of coal once the seam was in production and the miners were working at their "normal pace". The miners argued that this was not the case, telling the company that the seam was particularly difficult to work with many "abnormal places". When the test period was over, a wage was set for the workers on the new seam that was far lower than what could be considered a living wage, and they demanded an increase. The company had recently also been cutting the allowance given to miners, making the money made from piecework alone practically impossible to live on. Angered by the resistance they were meeting from the miners over the new wages, the owners posted lockout notices on August 1. The lockout applied not just to the 80 miners working on the new seam, but all 800 miners employed at the pit. Soon after they had been met by the lockout notices, the miners called the strike, and were soon joined by miners from two other pits owned by the Naval Colliery Company as well as others from several other collieries in South Wales who voted to strike several days later. A conference of the South Wales Miners Federation (SWMF) was held on September 16. 248 delegates attended, representing the 147,000 miners of the Miners' Federation of Great Britain and the decision to support the strikers was made. Several token pay increases still far below what could be considered a minimum living wage were offered by the mine owners and were all rejected by the workers, who were soon to be joined on strike by 30,000 other miners on November 1, the day the strike called by the SWMF officially began. Picketing began at all of the collieries that made up the Cambrian Combine in the area and on November 7, all pits affected by the strike were being picketed by their workers. A crowd of thousands marched though the Rhondda valley with miners filling the streets, gathering at pitheads and in many cases, entering their collieries to extinguish boiler fires and stop ventilation fans, making the mine unworkable to any scabs who had stayed in. Production was halted by workers in all pits except one in the town of Llwynypia, which had been transformed into a near fortress by its manager, who had at his disposal a large amount of police who had been drafted in by the Chief Constable of Glamorgan as soon as the strike had begun. Production at the colliery at Llwynypia was being kept running by about 60 scabs who had kept the machinery in the pit running with the aid of the 100 policemen from Swansea, Bristol and Cardiff preventing entry by the strikers. The colliery was important to both the strikers and the mine owners, being that it housed the electric generator and pumping station that kept that mines free of water, thus keeping the colliery operational. The owners were desperate to keep it out of the hands of the strikers, being dependent on the contingent of policemen guarding the power station building at the site to be able to maintain a minimal level of production. By 10.30pm on the evening of November 7, thousands of strikers had encircled the pit at Llwynypia, determined to gain entry and shut the colliery down. Unable to get inside, they began to throw stones at the policemen guarding the power station and heavy fighting soon ensued between the two groups, with some miners breaking off sections of wooden fencing to use as weapons. Some hours later, and after being subjected to repeated baton charges by the police, the strikers were pushed away from the colliery and into the square at nearby Tonypandy where they were further dispersed by waiting police. Sometime during the fighting in the square, the police authorities, worried about losing control of the situation telegraphed Tidworth barracks for army reinforcements, which were promised to arrive the next morning. However, the unapproved reinforcements had been stopped by order of the then home secretary, Winston Churchill, before they had even crossed into Wales. When contacted by an angry police captain, Churchill, fearful of political criticism he would come under if he deployed troops against the miners, maintained that they should only be used as a last resort, but said that he would keep them on standby nonetheless. Instead he sent several hundred policemen from London, including about 70 mounted police. The strikers returned to the pit at Llwynypia on November 8, and again heavy fighting between police and miners began. Some two hours into the fighting, mounted police succeeded in dispersing the miners into two groups, one of which headed for the middle of Llwynypia, the other heading again for Tonypandy. Fighting intensified in Tonypandy as the mounted police failed to disperse miners in the town, who began to smash shop windows. Homes in Tonypandy were left untouched by the angry miners, and after several hours of running battles with the police, Churchill telegrammed General MacReady, commander of the troops on standby with the message, "As the situation appears to have become more serious you should if the Chief Constable or Local Authority desire it move all the cavalry into the district without delay". Several hundred extra police from London were also promised, but by the time they arrived the next day the fighting had ended with about 500 miners injured as well as about 80 policemen. Samuel Rhys, a miner who sustained head injuries from a policeman's baton later died of his injuries. This series of events over the 7th and 8th of November in Tonypandy made up what became popularly known as the "Tonypandy Riot". Thirteen miners were arrested and prosecuted for their part in the unrest and the authorities, fearing more trouble, transformed Tonypandy and the surrounding area into a near military camp. The trial lasted for several days and on each day 10,000 men marched through the valley and held mass meetings outside the town in support of their friends in jail, despite the streets being filled with soldiers and policemen. Eventually, several of the miners standing trial were sentenced to prison terms ranging from two to six weeks, while the others were fined and released. Sporadic fighting continued for several more weeks and on November 22 a group of picketing miners were forced by soldiers with bayonets drawn onto a hillside near Penygraig, where they fought alongside the women of the community for several hours with troops and police. A local newspaper running a story on the event commented on the actions of the women: "Women joined with the men in the unequal combat, and displayed a total disregard of personal danger which was as admirable as it was foolhardy. But these Amazons of the coalfield resorted to other and more effective methods. >From the bedroom windows came showers of boiling water, which fell unerringly on the heads of police, while in one case a piece of bedroom ware found its billet on the skull of a Metropolitan policeman." Major disturbances were also reported at the town of Blaenclydach in April 1911, where heavy fighting took over the centre of the town with shops being looted as they had been in Tonypandy. The strike however, ended several months later with the miners, feeling the strain of being without pay for so long, being forced to accept a small pay increase. They returned to the pits in early September, exactly a year after the strike had begun. http://www.south-wales.police.uk/fe/master.asp?n1=8&n2=253&n3=484&n4=490 The clash between police and strikers for the second time at Llwynypia came about when thousands of strikers sought to destroy the powerhouse at the Glamorgan Colliery. The attack was sustained for more than 2 hours. Strikers were heard to shout, "It's our last chance, as the soldiers will be arriving tomorrow." The Colliery was defended by less than 120 constables (including 18 mounted men) under the direct command of the Chief Constable. For two hours the comparatively small force of police defended the Colliery premises, repulsing attack after attack, but by 7pm the position became grave indeed, for the police, who had had little or no food or sleep since their arrival early the previous day were reaching a point of exhaustion, and no reinforcement or relief was at hand. It was decided that a supreme effort would have to be made to disperse the mob by turning from defence to the offensive, though there was considerable doubt whether the small and tired force of 80 or 90 men would be strong enough to do so. The plan was for the whole force to drive a passage through the centre of the milling crowd so as to split it in two, and then for one section, composed of 40 Cardiff police to drive one flank of rioters in the direction of Llwynypia while the other section (Bristol, Swansea and Glamorgan men) tried to achieve the same effect in the direction of Tonypandy. In 1911 a writer described the "battle" as one "of which the memory is still a nightmare. More bones were broken and more bloodshed during this less than one hour's fighting than in any other half a dozen conflicts during the whole of the 1910-1911 strike movement. The end was a complete rout of the mob, the police doubling back to the colliery when the rioters had been driven more than a quarter of a mile in the opposite direction, i.e. towards Llwynypia to the North and Tonypandy to the South." He described the returning policemen as "limping, bleeding from head, face and hands, with the front of their greatcoats in many cases saturated with blood. Scores of batons were broken, and when they were gone the police used pick handles and other weapons captured from the rioters." As soon as this encounter had ended the Stipendiary Magistrate sent off the following telegram to the Home Secretary. "Police cannot cope with rioters. Troops at Cardiff absolutely necessary. Will you order them forthwith? Am ready to accompany them." The magistrate did not know that at the moment the telegram was being written the rioters were smashing shop windows and looting at Tonypandy. Only one constable escaped injury in the riot. Over 40% of the foot constables were seriously hurt, and 16 of the 18 mounted men had to receive medical attention. There is no authentic record as to the toll of injury to the rioters, but estimates suggest that at least 500 rioters suffered injury as the "scene on the road between the Glamorgan Colliery and Tonypandy resembled a battlefield." One man, a miner from Tonypandy, died from his injuries, having received three scalp wounds and two fractures to the skull. At the inquest the verdict recorded was that the evidence was not sufficiently clear as to how the injuries were caused. These disorders forced the hand of the Government, and within an hour Mr Winston Churchill telegraphed the Chief Constable that he had authorised General Macready to move all the cavalry available into the disturbed district without delay. The first section of the 18th Hussars reached Pontypridd at 10.30pm that night, the 8th November 1910, and the second squadron were directed to travel to Pontypridd the following morning. The Metropolitan Police aid of 100 mounted and 200 foot constables reached Pontypridd while the "sacking of Tonypandy was taking place, too late to be of any assistance." In conclusion then, far from initiating the sending of troops to the Rhondda, Churchill did all he could to avoid this being done, and gave way only when the strikers made it abundantly clear by the attacks on the colliery at Llwynypia and their lawlessness at Tonypandy, that the police, even if reinforced, could not guarantee the protection of life and property which it is the duty of the state to maintain.

    1. Re: [WESTALL] Buried in New York
    2. Tom Camfield
    3. Sorry, nothing that will help. However, I was interested in seeing the name Albert, which was the name of my father-in-law, Albert J. Westall (1901-1962). He also had an uncle named Albert (1878-1965). Not the most common given name, and I don't know just how it happened to crop up in this family line. I can take this ancestral line back two more generations to a Thomas Westall who died of cholera in Texas in 1833, but find no other references to the name Albert. William is pretty common, of course. That was the first name of my father-in-law's great-grandfather back in North Carolina. Thomas's ancestral records appear to have disappeared in Virginia along about the American Revolution. Always ready to clutch at any straws that might appear, however.
