This could be tricky. I am trying to locate a book, though I don't know the title nor the author. The clues I have are these: In a letter dated 17th Aug 1790 a lady wrote to her correspondent: "I saw an old book describing Coats of Arms that were painted in Yorkshire Churches; the Arms of the del la Hays of Spaldington were mentioned as being in the windows of Bubwith, North Cave and Eastrington" Does anyone have a clue to which book she was referring, published pre-1790?

Hi Ray, Thank you for your email. I shall be happy to investigate Francis Wilson. Please could you let me have the relevant census returns and a copy of the letter. What numbers in Swann St did Alfred live at? I believe that Jacques Yard was behind Swann St. You can find out by looking at the neighbours on the census. There are some interesting photos of Swann St and Nunnery Lane on Imagine York which you can google. I went to Mill Mount school from 1963 to 1970 when I moved to London. I returned to York 9 years ago. The Bay Horse Inn is at 25 Blossom Street and with the Mount Hotel is just out of our area. Regards pauline alden 13 swann street York YO23 1AF _____ From: Ray Atkinson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 17 October 2014 20:56 To: [email protected] Subject: Help with shops in York requested Hi Pauline I have a connection to the shops around Nunnery Lane through my GG Grandfather, Francis Wilson, who was a Chemist and Druggist. His premises were listed as 20 New York Street in the 1861 and 1871 census, which I believe is now part of Nunnery Lane. Francis died in 1871, aged 39. It was particularly interesting for me to find this out as I was a pharmacist all my working life. I don't have any photographs unfortunately, but I do have a very brief letter from the Royal Pharmaceutical Society outlining his career up to his death, as well as the various census returns &c which I guess you have access to anyway. His son Alfred, my G Grandfather, lived in Swann Street in 1881 and 1891, and Jacques Yard in 1901. He was a painter. I guess it was not the houses that are there now though. I was born in York, and my father still lives there now. I moved away many years ago, after going to Nunthorpe School between 1963 and 1970. I also have a Thomas William Powell who was a hotel keeper and landlord at the Mount Hotel in 1901 and the Bay Horse Inn, Blossom Street in 1911. I don't know if this is of interest to you or not, and I don't have anything other than what's in the census returns &c. Let me know if I can help you any further.

Dear Dave, In the 1913 Kellys there is a William Wilson butchers at 59 Nunnery Lane and in Kellys 1889 this is also listed at 93 Nunnery Lane In 1923 John Cox baker and flour dealer is listed also in 1851 there is the same listing at Blossom Street.

His son Thomas continued on with the business until the 1860's whereby the business seems to have faded away. Probably a result of his son (my ggf) taking up the plumbing business. Now the address of Thomas was 1 Blossom Street, and is on his Freedom certificate, which maybe, when viewing old York photo's, be his residential address.

Hi Pauline, The York Libraries project 'Imagine York' has over 6,000 images of York which are searchable. Although the technology that made this archive of images several years ago is now dated, the system still works very well. It is certainly worth searching for the areas you are interested in. Explore York is the new site for York Libraries and Archives, however, I googled Imagine York and found it here: https://cyc.sdp.sirsidynix.net.uk/client/en_GB/yorkimages Here you have the opportunity to add to the descriptions of the images, making it a very, very valuable archive.
