How to use this guide

This guide covers the places now in the unitary authority of South Gloucestershire which were in the county of Avon between 1974 and 1996, and prior to that in the historic county of Gloucestershire. It also includes places formerly in Gloucestershire which are now in Bristol, and some material relating to Bristol itself.

It comprises the following sections:

a general introduction to the history and administration of the area covered by South Gloucestershire Council, and some information about the city of Bristol, the area known as Barton Regis, and the Kingswood area

a list of archive sources for South Gloucestershire, arranged by place and then by subject; sources relating to the South Gloucestershire/ Avon area as a whole are listed first

brief introductions to each of the parishes within South Gloucestershire, giving a summary of the administrative units to which each parish has belonged

o a place has been given a separate entry if it has at any point been an ecclesiastical or civil parish in its own right. Some modern ecclesiastical parishes still remain, for civil purposes, within the larger parishes from which they were created, so researchers are advised to check the placename entries for both (for example, the ecclesiastical parish of Patchway remains within Almondsbury for civil purposes, so researchers interested in Patchway should check Almondsbury for references to civil records such as those of the parish council).

brief introductions to each of the subject categories used in this guide

o The subject headings have been chosen as being those most likely to be useful to researchers of local and family history. Some, such as ‘Deeds’, ‘Estate and family records’ and ‘Manorial records’, are closely interrelated and researchers are advised to check them all.

The list of sources gives a brief description of each group of records, its reference number or other means of finding or using it, and its location. Most sources listed in this guide are held either at Gloucestershire Archives (www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/archives) or at Bristol Archives (http://www.bristolmuseums.org.uk/bristol-record-office).

To find descriptions of the records in the online catalogues of Gloucestershire Archives or Bristol Archives, you will need the reference number. The online catalogues both use the same software, so they work in a similar way, but they look a little different.

Using the ‘quick search’ option on Gloucestershire Archives’ catalogue, put the reference number in the ‘FindingRef’ box and click ‘Search’; on Bristol Archives’s catalogue, put the reference number in the ‘quick search’ box at the top of the page and click the ‘quick search’ button. Both catalogues then give you a hitlist of search results, and you can click on any item in the hitlist to be taken to the full information for that item.

Images of the documents are not available on the online catalogues, but you can arrange to view the originals by contacting the relevant institution. Please note that a few items referred to in the list may have access restrictions due to data protection legislation; this should be clearly identified on the entries in the online catalogues.

Introduction

The purpose of this guide is to draw together the sources of archives for the area which is now administered by the South Gloucestershire Unitary Authority. This area was under Avon County Council between 1974 and 1996 and until 1974 was part of the county of Gloucestershire. Archives for the area will be found in Gloucester at the Gloucestershire Archives and in Bristol at the Bristol Archives and in Bristol Central Library.

Bristol has been a city and county in its own right since 1373, apart from the years it was part of the county of Avon (1974-1996). On the abolition of Avon in 1996, Bristol reverted to its separate status. In many indexes Bristol is listed under Gloucestershire because the medieval city is on the north side of the River Avon which flows through the city and traditionally marked the border between Gloucestershire and Somerset.

In 1835, Bristol's city council extended the city's boundaries to encompass the parishes of St Philip and Jacob Without and Clifton, the united district of St James and St Paul, and parts of the parishes of Bedminster and Westbury-on-Trym. At that time, the Bristol Incorporation comprised the city parishes of All Saints, Castle Precincts, Christ Church, St Augustine the less, St Ewen, St James, St John, St Leonard, St Mary-le-Port, St Mary Redcliffe, St Michael, St Nicholas, St Paul, St Peter, St Philip & St Jacob, St Stephen, St Thomas, St Werburgh, and Temple.

A Boundaries Committee was appointed in 1889 to consider the extension of the boundaries of the city of Bristol; its minutes survive for the period 1889-1897 (M/BCC/A/M/BOU/1/1-4, Bristol Archives). Meanwhile, the boundaries of the county of Gloucestershire as a local government unit were defined in 1894, including the parishes of Avonmouth, Fishponds, Henbury, Horfield, St George, Shirehampton, Stapleton, Stoke Bishop and Westbury on Trym. These parishes became part of Bristol between 1897 and 1904; indeed, parts of Henbury remained in Gloucestershire until 1930.

In 1974, Bristol became the centre of the new county of Avon, and remained so until 1996, when Avon was abolished. Bristol regained its county status, and the unitary authority of South Gloucestershire was created out of the borough of Kingswood and the district of Northavon. The records of the defunct Avon County Council were transferred to Bristol as the residuary record authority and are now held at Bristol Archives.

Archive provision in South Gloucestershire

Bristol Archives was established in 1924 to care for the archives of the City and County of Bristol, and Gloucestershire Archives (then known as Gloucestershire Record Office) was set up in 1936 to look after the archives of the ancient county of Gloucestershire.

When local government reorganisation took place in 1974, the southern portion of the county of Gloucestershire was transferred to Avon, but no county record office was set up for the new county. Archives relating to the City of Bristol were still cared for by Bristol Archives, but neither that office nor Gloucestershire Record Office had authority to look after the records of the parishes in Avon which were outside the city boundaries.

Following the creation in 1996 of South Gloucestershire, the new unitary authority bought into Gloucestershire County Council’s archive service and so once again the old shire county has the care of the archives down to the Bristol boundary.

The City of Bristol and its record keeping

The City of Bristol has a long tradition of recordkeeping, dating back to the Middle Ages; the Common Council proceedings begin in 1598 (M/BCC/CCP, Bristol Archives).

Except for the Mayor and Aldermen’s Committee, the first City committees were not permanent, instead being appointed for a particular purpose. Minutes were generally entered in separate books until General Committee books were created to contain most of them. Out of this system there developed in about 1790 certain standing committees, many of which had significant interests in South Gloucestershire.

Committees

The Corporation of Bristol had begun to purchase estates in the surrounding countryside by the 16th and early 17th centuries, partly as a result of the dissolution of the monastic houses and partly due to increasing prosperity. By 1725 the Surveyors of City Lands Committee had been formed to manage the City’s landed estates. It met monthly from 1790 and the minutes survive from that date (04299, Bristol Archives). A volume of surveys by John Jacob de Wilstar containing maps of various manors including Gaunts Earthcott, Filton, Henbury, Siston and Winterbourne, for the period 1736-43 (04480, Bristol Archives), is among the records of the Surveyors, together with plans of the estates of Lea Tithing and the manor of Gaunts Earthcott by Player and Sturge, 1784, 1824 and 1837. The records also include copies of leases, plans, minutes and court rolls (BCC/F/E, Bristol Archives).

A Rivers Committee was created in 1791 to enquire into nuisances which had arisen in the Rivers Avon, Severn and Frome. Minutes survive for this committee between 1791 and 1826 (BCC/A/2, Bristol Archives).

The Estates and General Purposes Committee superintended the receipts and disbursements of corporate funds and the funds of the city lands. Two committees were set up in 1836 and amalgamated into a finance committee in 1901 with responsibility for planning and traffic as well. Minutes, orders, land stewards and other records survive from 1836 for this committee.

A committee was appointed in 1902 to enquire and report on the management of Brentry Homes, Henbury (BCC/A/M, Bristol Archives). There are minutes of the District Committee of the Gloucestershire War Agricultural Executive Committee, 1939-1945 (BCC/A/M/GWAR/1, Bristol Archives).

Bristol Corporation of the Poor

The city of Bristol passed a private Poor Relief Act in 1696 which amalgamated all of the nineteen parishes within the city limits for poor-relief purposes and established the first Board of Guardians (Bristol Corporation of the Poor) and the first workhouse in England at St Peter’s Hospital, which was purchased by the Bristol Corporation of the Poor for use as a workhouse for the destitute and as a lunatic asylum c.1698.

This Act enabled the erecting of hospitals and "workhouses within the City of Bristol for the better employing and maintaining of the poor”. It was the first of its kind in the country and other towns and cities followed Bristol’s lead. This inspired the passing of similar Acts until the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1868

In 1779 a prison had been built to house French prisoners of war in Fishponds which was then part of Stapleton parish. There are references to these prisoners in the register of inquests kept by William Joyner of Berkeley, County Coroner from 1790-1823 (D260, Gloucestershire Archives). In 1833 the prison was taken over by the Bristol authorities as a workhouse and lunatic asylum, due to overcrowding at St Peter's Hospital which after 1865 was used mainly for administrative purposes. The Fishponds site continued to develop, with male and female infirmary blocks being erected in about 1870. There was a major redevelopment of the main building in about 1890.

There had been a private lunatic asylum in Fishponds since 1738 founded by Dr Joseph Mason. His granddaughter married Dr George Bompas and the Asylum passed to members of the Cox and Bompas families. The deeds of Fishponds House, also known as “Mason’s Madhouse”, dating from 1747 can be seen in the Bristol Archives (49646). The Asylum closed in 1850, and the patients were transferred to the Borough Lunatic Asylum nearby.

Between 1835 and 1897, the Bristol Corporation of the Poor continued to operate at St Peter's Hospital and Stapleton [Fishponds] workhouses.

Under the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834 the Clifton Union (renamed Barton Regis in 1877) and Bedminster were constituted in 1837. Due to the extension of the city boundaries in 1835 these two unions were included within the City although they retained separate headquarters, Barton Regis at Eastville [100 Fishponds Road in Stapleton parish] and Bedminster at Long Ashton. Clifton Union included the following parishes which were outside the City itself: Clifton, St James and St Paul, St Philip and Jacob, Horfield, Stapleton, St George, Stoke Gifford, Westbury on Trym, Filton, Henbury, Winterbourne and Compton Greenfield.

By an act of 1897 there was one union for the entire city with its headquarters at St Peter’s Hospital. In 1904 Barton Regis Union was dissolved and a workhouse at Southmead built in 1902 was taken over by the Bristol Board of Guardians. In 1929 this body was replaced by the Public Assistance Committee.

An Act of Parliament of 1845 made provision for the regulation of lunatic asylums and the maintenance and care of pauper lunatics in England. These duties were transferred from the Justices of the Peace to the Council in 1846 and in 1930 became known as the Mental Hospital Visiting

Committee. This committee was dissolved under the Mental Health Act of 1946. Minutes survive from 1856-1948; visitors, books, 1860-1942; letter books, 1866-1923;deeds1860-1948; and plans of the Bristol Lunatic Asylum, 1889-1904 at Fishponds. (BCC/A/M/MEH, Bristol Archives).

The Corporation of the Poor’s archives were housed in St Peter’s Hospital, which was destroyed by enemy action in 1940. These included all the Board of Guardians records except some minutes between 1901 and 1903 and the Eastville Workhouse registers, 1868-1952 (covering dates). The only other records which survived were the deeds of the Hospital, 1548-1696; deeds and related papers concerning Shirehampton and Upton, 1699-1828; Stapleton Institution deeds, 1777-1837; records of Eastville Institution, 1722-1902; a workhouse book concerning children’s pin work, 1779-1780; and a contract for passage of paupers to Van Diemen’s land, 1833.

Burial Boards

A Burial Board subcommittee was appointed to manage Greenbank Cemetery, which had been transferred from the St Philip’s Burial Board (BCC/S/SPBB, Bristol Archives). Avonview Cemetery (BCC/D/CEM/2, Bristol Archives) was taken over from the St George Burial Board (BCC/A/M/BUR/1-3, Bristol Archives), and Shirehampton cemetery from Shirehampton Parish Council. In 1919 the subcommittee became known as the Crematorium and Cemeteries Committee. Minutes and notes survive from 1896-1968.

Rural and Urban District Councils in the Bristol area

The Public Health Act 1872, created urban and rural sanitary authorities across the whole country. Guardians of the Poor Law Unions were constituted as the rural sanitary authority for those parts of each union not in an urban sanitary authority. In 1894 the rural sanitary districts were renamed Rural Districts, and the urban sanitary districts were renamed Urban Districts, and were all governed by elected authorities

Barton Regis Rural District Council took over the functions of the Barton Regis Rural Sanitary Authority in 1894 and Westbury on Trym and Shirehampton Parochial Committees were elected. Under the Bristol Corporation Act 1904, Westbury on Trym and Shirehampton became part of the city of Bristol, and Barton Regis RDC ceased to exist.

Horfield Urban District Council began as a Local Government Board in 1866 and became an Urban District Council in 1897. Horfield became part of the city of Bristol in 1904 and the Urban District Council ceased to exist.

The Board of Highways for Stapleton was replaced in 1879 by the Stapleton (Gloucestershire) Local Board, which became Stapleton Urban District Council in 1894 and was abolished in 1898 when Stapleton became part of Bristol.

St George Highway Board acted as the Sewer Authority under the 1866 and 1868 Acts. This gave way to the St George Local Board of Health in 1873 and then the St George Urban Sanitary Authority, which became St George Urban District Council in 1894 and was abolished in 1898 when St George became part of Bristol.

The county of Gloucestershire and its recordkeeping

Historically, judicial and administrative matters in Gloucestershire were the responsibility of the Court of Quarter Sessions. The Justices of the Peace in the Court of Quarter Sessions dealt with a wide range of matters including highways, bridges, paupers, lunatics, reformatories, diseases of animals, weights and measures, coroners, homes for inebriates and the police.

Gloucestershire County Council was established in 1888 to carry out the administrative work previously done by the court of Quarter Sessions, and was carrying out that work by April 1889. The Council included members for Almondsbury, Badminton, Bitton, Chipping Sodbury, Horfield, Mangotsfield, Oldland, Pucklechurch, St George Central, St George East and St George West, Stapleton, Thornbury, Westbury on Trym, and aldermen were appointed in Frenchay, Falfield and Clifton.

In 1936 a Records Committee was appointed under the Chairmanship of Sir Francis Hyett for the acquisition and preservation of county and historical documents, and the Gloucestershire Record Office was set up to carry out this work.

Education and children’s services

The new County Council held similar responsibilities to the justices of the Quarter Sessions for a while but a major change came following the Education Act of 1902 which required the Council to set up an Education Committee with its own officers and department to supply or to aid the supply and to promote the coordination of all forms of education taking over the powers of the School Boards which were to be abolished. Gloucestershire appointed Mr H W Household as Secretary of Education in 1903. He visited schools throughout the county until his retirement in 1936, and kept a series of very interesting and detailed notebooks recounting these visits. (C/AE/R/5, Gloucestershire Archives).

The Adoption of Children Act 1939 regulated the making of arrangements for the adoption of children by societies and others and for their supervision by the County Council. However, in 1939 the Council was ordered by the Home Office to give priority over all other business to matters related to air raid precautions, and in September of that year a State of Emergency was declared

A separate Children’s Committee was formed in 1948 with special officers to be responsible for all aspects of child care including the running of homes.

Wartime

In 1936 a detailed scheme was prepared to prepare for the need to safeguard the people in the event of air raids, and by the time the Air Raid Precautions (ARP) Act 1937 was passed, Gloucestershire was well-prepared to meet the power and duties required by government.. A special committee comprising members of County and City Councils organised a recruiting drive and the training of thousands of volunteers, greatly assisted by the WVS (Women’s Voluntary Service).

During the War the Weights and Measures Department had to ensure that food and petrol rationing was properly observed. Wastage of food became an offence, and papers, rags and metal had to be salvaged. The County Council cooperated with district councils for salvage of

13

property for repairs and removal of debris after air raids. Following a very dry spring in 1944 there was a great water shortage and excavators were arranged to clean out ponds. Owing to the food shortage, the need for school dinners increased and the Gloucestershire Education Committee added 95 kitchens to the 168 already in use at elementary schools. As in other rural counties there was a large influx of evacuated children, and the County Council’s archives include registers of evacuated children and returns from schools of children evacuated to Gloucestershire, 1939-1945 (C/AE/V/1/4, Gloucestershire Archives)

Planning, roads and rights of way

Road-building was another responsibility of the County Council, and a sub-committee was formed to consider plans for a bridge over the lower reaches of the River Severn. In 1935 a special meeting decided to promote a bill for a road bridge across the river, although the scheme was not successful and the Severn Bridge was not built until the 1960s.

The County Council was also responsible for motor taxation until 1974, and the surviving records include licensing registers, files, and an index to the files, c.1939-1974 (D3675, Gloucestershire Archives).

After the Second World War, the Town and Country Planning Act gave greatly increased powers to the County Council and a major committee was formed and a Planning Officer appointed to deal with the siting of houses, change of use of existing buildings, general development of towns and villages and the preservation of historic buildings. A year or two later came the creation of nature reserves and the recording and maintenance of public footpaths.

In 1952 the Council was given authority under the Town Development Act to develop towns in rural areas, including the Yate overspill and subsequent development around Chipping Sodbury.

Emergency services

The rural police force in Gloucestershire was set up by the Court of Quarter Sessions in the early 1840s, in spite of petitions in 1841-1842 from many parishes who thought such a force was an unnecessary expense (Q/AP/8/1, Gloucestershire Archives). Following the Fire Service Act of 1947 a committee was formed to carry out the County Council’s responsibility for fire fighting, the protection of people and property and the supply of fire hydrants and water. An ambulance service was organised to cover the whole county after the formation of the National Health Service in 1947, and the ambulance subcommittee minutes survive for 1947-1948 (C/CM/M5/1, Gloucestershire Archives).

Health and social services

The Public Assistance Committee took over the responsibility for the care of the poor from the Poor Law Unions under the Local Government Act 1929. After the formation of the National Health Service in 1947, the Welfare Committee was formed to provide for the aged, disabled, and infirm. This committee was responsible for buying and maintaining homes for elderly, disabled, blind and partially sighted people, with the long-term object of closing the old workhouses and institutions. As building was still restricted after the war, several large houses were bought and

converted into residential homes including Oaklands in Almondsbury (C/CC/B/529, Gloucestershire Archives) and in 1954 the first purpose built residential care home for the elderly was opened at the The Chase in Kingswood.

Church records

The Diocese of Gloucester was created from the Diocese of Worcester in 1541; the Diocese of Bristol was created in 1542, also from the Diocese of Worcester. The two dioceses have remained separate except for two short periods when they were united, between 1562 and 1589 and between 1836 and 1897.

A large quantity of Bristol’s diocesan records were destroyed in the Reform Bill Riots of 1831 but some at least were brought to Gloucester after 1836 where they came to be regarded as part of the Gloucester records. After the union of the two dioceses in 1836 some of the current act books, which recorded the diocesan transactions, were kept and used at Gloucester and together with the diocesan surveys were made to serve for both dioceses. The entries were completely amalgamated.

Nothing is known of any exchange of records when the diocese of Bristol was reconstituted in 1897. Records held in the Gloucester Diocesan Records (GDR, Gloucestershire Archives) have been included this guide. There are many references to South Gloucestershire parishes, including a group of letters relating to the acquisition of Stapleton House near Bristol as a new episcopal house of residence after the union of the two sees in 1836. They give glimpses of the wrangling between the Ecclesiastical Commissioners during the extravagant restoration of the mansion which was sold less than 20 years later at a considerable loss (GDR/A13/4-7, 9, Gloucestershire Archives). In 1968 the Church Commissioners deposited the original plans.

Diocese of Bristol

The present Diocese of Bristol extends into South Gloucestershire and includes the parishes of Almondsbury, Alveston, Aust, Bitton, Coalpit Heath, Cold Ashton, Compton Greenfield, Dodington, Downend, Doynton, Dyrham and Hinton, Filton, Fishponds, Frampton Cotterell, Frenchay, Hanham, Henbury, Horfield, Iron Acton, Kingswood, Littleton on Severn, Mangotsfield, Marshfield, Oldland, Olveston, Patchway, Pilning, Pucklechurch, St George (not to be confused with St George’s Brandon Hill which is in central Bristol), St Philip and Jacob outparish, Shirehampton, Siston, Stapleton, Stoke Bishop, Tormarton (including West Littleton), Wapley and Codrington, Warmley, Westbury on Trym, Westerleigh, Wick and Abson, Winterbourne, Winterbourne Down and Yate. Records for these parishes are held in the Bristol Archives, except Marshfield and Cold Ashton; their records are held at Gloucestershire Archives at their request.

Among the collection of records of the Bishop of Bristol held in the Bristol Archives are the wills and inventories proved in the Bishop’s consistory court between 1564 and 1857. This collection includes the wills for the South Gloucestershire parishes within the Archdeaconry of Bristol and

15

Deanery of Stapleton. The wills and inventories for the other parishes covered by this guide can be found at Gloucestershire Archives although some of the parishes fall within the diocese of Bristol.

The Archdeaconry of Bristol in 1886 included the Gloucestershire deaneries of Bitton and Stapleton as well as the city of Bristol. On the reconstitution of the diocese of Bristol in 1897, the Archdeaconry of Bristol and the rural deaneries remained the same. However in 1901 Clifton was added and in 1919 some parishes in Stapleton Rural Deanery were transferred to Clifton. In 1927 Stapleton Rural Deanery was renamed Almondsbury Rural Deanery and in 1949 a new Rural Deanery of Stapleton was created. In 1968 the Archdeaconry of Bristol included the rural deaneries of Almondsbury, Bitton, Clifton and Stapleton (see Diocese of Gloucester, A Catalogue of the records of the Bishop and Archdeacons by I M Kirby (1968).

Diocese of Gloucester

The records of the Diocese of Gloucester (GDR) are held at Gloucestershire Archives, including wills and inventories for Gloucestershire and for the South Gloucestershire parishes within the Diocese of Gloucester. Wills and inventories (where the latter have survived) for some of the South Gloucestershire parishes in the Diocese of Bristol are also held at Gloucester. Wills proved in the Diocese of Gloucester between 1541 and 1858 are available via the Ancestry website.

Nonconformist records

South Gloucestershire has a long tradition of nonconformity. Methodism was particularly strong due to the visits of John Wesley and George Whitfield. The Downend Methodist Circuit was formed in 1804 and covered the area north of Bristol from Warmley and Frampton Cotterell in the east to Thornbury and Oldbury-on-Severn in the west. Primitive Methodism was introduced into the area in 1833; the first chapel in Kingswood was built in 1841

During the agitation for reform between 1849 and 1851 Bristol and Kingswood particularly played an important part. Almost three-quarters of the membership of the Kingswood Circuit broke away to form what became the Kingswood Circuit of the United Methodist Free Churches, later the United Methodist Church. The Downend area lost many members to the reforming element. In 1859 the Downend Society, much reduced in membership, was transferred to the Kingswood Wesleyan Circuit. Winterbourne, with a chapel at Watley’s End, became the centre of the former Downend circuit in 1919.

Around 1955 the South Gloucestershire Circuit was created out of the Downend Circuit, and the Staple Hill and Fishponds Circuit became successor to the Kingswood Circuit. The Fishponds Primitive Methodist Circuit was divided between the two new circuits. In 1971 these two circuits, with part of Bristol East Circuit, were amalgamated to form Frome Valley Circuit. The Thornbury area of the South Gloucestershire Circuit joined Bristol North Circuit (35230, 38541 and 39361, Bristol Archives).

Nearby Frenchay gave strong support to the Society of Friends (42135 and 43328, Bristol Archives) There are records of registrations of dissenters’ meeting houses all over South Gloucestershire in the Gloucestershire Quarter Sessions archive.

Barton Regis: an explanation of the use of the name

The area known as Barton Regis was originally a hundred, an ancient term for a subdivision of a shire, which was taken from the Swineshead hundred as the population of Bristol increased. The hundred of Barton Regis comprised the parishes of Clifton, Stapleton, Mangotsfield and St Philip and St Jacob, as well as the extraparochial area known as Kingswood.

The name was given to the Barton Regis Poor Law Union on its formation in 1834, although by the 1880s it was known as the Clifton Union. The Union comprised the parishes of Clifton, Compton Greenfield, Filton, Henbury, Horfield, St James and St Paul outparish, St Philip and St Jacob outparish, St George, Shirehampton, Stapleton, Stoke Gifford, Westbury-on-Trym and Winterbourne.

The name Barton Regis was also used by local government bodies in the late 19th century, first the Barton Regis Rural Sanitary Authority, comprising the parishes of Compton Greenfield, Filton, Henbury, Horfield, Shirehampton, Stoke Gifford, Westbury-on-Trym and Winterbourne, and then the Barton Regis Rural District, comprising the parishes of Henbury, Shirehampton, Stoke Gifford, Westbury-on-Trym and Winterbourne. The Rural District was abolished in 1904 and the parishes it contained were transferred either to Bristol (most of Henbury, Shirehampton and Westbury-on-Trym) or to Chipping Sodbury Rural District (Stoke Gifford and Winterbourne).

Kingswood: a detailed history

Kingswood, on the north east edge of Bristol, has never been absorbed by the City, although the city boundary cuts through its suburban streets, and it has a very different history from its neighbours.

The Forest of Kingswood was part of the royal domain of the Saxon kings and King Edmund was assassinated at the royal palace in nearby Pucklechurch in 946. The Forest covered about 18 square miles extending to the Sodbury Hills, to Lansdown near Bath and across the River Avon to Filwood in Somerset, with Bristol on its western border. As with all royal forests, Kingswood belonged to neither county nor diocese. Stapleton, which included Fishponds, lay at the edge of the Forest to the north of the River Frome. At the Domesday survey of 1086, Fishponds was part of the manor of Bethune (Barton) under the direct authority of the Constable of Bristol Castle.

The area was crown land and part of the hundred of Barton Regis. In 1228 Henry III granted Charters of Disafforestation and tracts of land within the forest bounds were converted into common land or land held in common by the various inhabitants of the surrounding area. Kingswood Forest was reduced in status to a Royal Chase and cut down in size to 4500 acres which extended six miles north-east of Bristol and covered present day St George, Upper and Lower Easton, Bitton, Hanham, Oldland and Brislington together with parts of Stapleton and Mangotsfield parishes.

In 1631 Charles I handed over Bristol Castle to the Mayor and Burgesses of Bristol and after that the Chase became prey to all comers who cut down trees, mined coal, quarried stone and pastured cattle and horses. By 1670 it had been unofficially divided into a number of “Lordships” or “Liberties” – land claimed without any authority by the Lords of the adjacent manors and other local landowners. One belonged to Sir John Berkeley, covering part of Stapleton parish, and another to Thomas Chester, covering the area which later became St George parish. These two Liberties comprised about 1600 acres out of the 3432 acres that was left of the Chase by 1652.

By 1734 the crown agents gave up any struggle against the landowners and around this time the hamlet of Fishponds developed in the area which was known as New Pools by 1610. By 1779 all common rights were extinguished in the part of Kingswood Common in the parish of Stapleton, present day Fishponds, under the Stapleton Inclosure Act of 1781, which followed a detailed survey by Jacob Sturge (Q/RI/134, Gloucestershire Archives; AC/PL/58 and AC/PL/90, Bristol Archives). Kingswood became a civil parish in 1894 and was separated from Bitton in 1921

Kingswood was a great centre of nonconformity, especially Methodism, where Bristol had an importance second only to London. As the chief city of the west of England, Bristol formed one of the three focal points of John Wesley's many journeys between London, Newcastle and the West Country. John Wesley first came to Bristol in 1739 at the pleading of George Whitefield, who needed Wesley to sustain the work he had begun there while he travelled to America. When the Bristol churches were closed to him, Whitefield began to speak in the open air to the colliers of Kingswood, attracting several thousand people to his meetings (5054, Bristol Reference Library)

Kingswood was also an industrial and manufacturing area, centring around coal mining and the manufacture of boots and shoes.

Sources for the history of South Gloucestershire

This list of sources has been arranged alphabetically by place and then by subject. Information relating to the places and subject categories used in the list can be found at the end of this guide.

Sources relating to the whole of the South Gloucestershire/Avon area have been listed first, and researchers are advised to check these as well as the sources under the place they are interested in.

A place has been given a separate entry if it has at any point been an ecclesiastical or civil parish in its own right. Some modern ecclesiastical parishes still remain, for civil purposes, within the larger parishes from which they were created, so researchers are advised to check the placename entries for both (for example, the ecclesiastical parish of Patchway remains within Almondsbury for civil purposes, so researchers interested in Patchway should check Almondsbury for references to civil records such as those of the parish council).

The subject headings have been chosen as being those most likely to be useful to researchers of local and family history. Some, such as ‘Deeds’, ‘Estate and family records’ and ‘Manorial records’, are closely interrelated and researchers are advised to check them all.

Some modern ecclesiastical parishes still remain, for civil purposes, within the larger parishes from which they were created, so researchers are advised to check the placename entries for both in the list of sources (for example, the ecclesiastical parish of Patchway remains within Almondsbury for civil purposes, so researchers interested in Patchway should check Almondsbury for references to civil records such as those of the parish council).

Brief introductions to the subject categories used in this guide

This section contains brief introductions to each of the subject categories used in this guide

The subject headings have been chosen as being those most likely to be useful to researchers of local and family history. Some, such as ‘Deeds’, ‘Estate and family records’ and ‘Manorial records’, are closely interrelated and researchers are advised to check them all in the list of sources.

Burial grounds and cemeteries

Under the terms of the Burial Act 1853, parish vestries could establish burial boards to maintain and administer burial grounds. These powers were later extended to urban and rural districts, municipal boroughs and (from 1894) parish councils. It was also possible for more than one authority to combine to establish a joint burial committee. For the background to the relevant legislation see Macmillan, Local Government Law and Administration, vol 2, 1934, pp316-318 (available at Gloucestershire Archives). For an overview of cemetery provision in Bristol, see the introduction to this guide.

Census

Censuses of the population were taken every ten years from 1841 onwards (with the exception of 1941). The detailed returns are available for every census over 100 years old and include information on every person present in each house on the night the census was taken.

Census returns for every parish in the South Gloucestershire area, 1841-1901, are available in the searchroom at Bristol Archives.

Additionally all the censuses between 1841 and 1901 are available on the Ancestry and Find My Past websites. Users are required to subscribe in order to use the data, but the sites are accessible free of charge from all libraries in Gloucestershire and South Gloucestershire, as well as in the searchroom at Gloucestershire Archives.

549

Charities

Charities were often founded by local people who left money for causes including caring for the poor and establishing schools. Their administration was often taken over by solicitors or local authorities, and their records can be found among the archives of Anglican and nonconformist churches, schools, solicitors’ practices and local authorities.

A large number of charities and benefactions administered by the Corporation of Bristol were transferred to the Bristol Municipal Charity Trustees in 1835 (33041, Bristol Archives), although there were some exceptions which remained with the Corporation. Many of these charities had landholdings in South Gloucestershire.

Coroners

Coroners are royal officers who since the 12th century have held inquests on matters affecting crown rights in the county; especially sudden death, wreck and treasure trove. Until 1844 any county coroner could act in any part of Gloucestershire, other than the boroughs of Tewkesbury and Gloucester which each had their own coroner; since 1844 each county coroner has had responsibility for his own district; the south of the county was covered by the Lower Division between 1844 and 1974. In 1888 county coroners ceased to be elected by the freeholders. Coroners' districts were altered in 1966 and 1974, with the creation of the Avon coroners’ district.

Court and prison records

The early history of the petty sessional (magistrates’ court) divisions is summarized in Gloucestershire Quarter Sessions Archives 1660-1889 (Gloucestershire County Council, 1958), pp70-72 (available at Gloucestershire Archives). The divisions originally comprised Hundreds or groups of Hundreds, but were extensively revised in 1840; most of the surviving records date from after this reorganization. Boundary changes between 1840 and 1950 were few, and mostly related to the changes in the county boundary in the 1930s. Pressure to review and amalgamate divisions began in the early 1950s and continued apace (see especially Dr John W Raine, Preparing for the 1990s: an organisational review of the Gloucestershire Magistrates Courts, INLOGOV July 1984, available at Gloucestershire Archives).

Page 551: A guide to archive sources for the history of South ... · The Corporation of Bristol had begun to purchase estates in the surrounding countryside by the 16th and early 17th centuries,

550

The Gloucestershire Quarter Sessions were responsible for the running of the various gaols and Houses of Correction in the county, including Lawfords Gate House of Correction. An index to the registers of some of the Gloucestershire gaols forms part of Gloucestershire Archives’ Genealogical Database.

A prison was built at Fishponds in 1779 to house French prisoners of war, and it served as a prison until 1833 when it became a workhouse and lunatic asylum to ease overcrowding at the city workhouse at St Peter’s Hospital.

Some Gloucestershire County Court proceedings were held at Bristol, and references to these are included in the list of sources under Bristol.

Deeds

Title deeds survive in many different types of collection, including estate and family archives, solicitors’ collections, and the records of businesses, schools, charities, societies and many other bodies. Where possible references to deeds have been extracted and placed here, but researchers looking for title deeds should also check the collections mentioned in the Estate and Family Records category in particular, as well as the Local and Antiquarian Records and Manorial Records categories, as it has not always been possible to separate the references.

Diocesan records

Prior to the Reformation, most of Gloucestershire formed part of the diocese of Worcester. The diocese of Gloucester was formed in 1541 and that of Bristol in the following year. These two dioceses were united between 1562 and 1589, and 1836 and 1897. On their re-establishment as separate sees in 1897, the deanery of Bitton (formerly Hawkesbury South) was transferred to the diocese of Bristol. For details of the composition of the diocese of Gloucester and its archdeaconries and deaneries see I M Kirby, A Catalogue of the Records of the Bishop and Archdeacons (Gloucester City Council, 1968) (available at Gloucestershire Archives). A useful study of the administration of the diocese between 1547 and 1579 is contained in F D Price's thesis (1939), available in the searchroom at Gloucestershire Archives. In the course of compiling his thesis Price calendared several of the consistory court act books in the period 1541-1602. Copies are available in the searchroom at Gloucestershire Archives.

For a more detailed overview and explanation of the dioceses of Gloucester and Bristol, see the introduction to this guide.

The diocesan act books were calendared by F S Hockaday c1910-1920 and his "abstracts" to them, arranged by parish and date, are held at Gloucestershire Archives (D3439). His personal and place-name "indexes", are available in the searchroom at Gloucestershire Archives and provide a point of entry into matters relating to faculties, ordinations, licences, presentments, etc, which were dealt with by the consistory court.

551

The diocese was responsible for the administration of parishes and the proving of wills; for more information see the ‘Parish Records’ and ‘Wills’ categories in the list of sources.

Education

This category includes the records of schools, colleges and other educational institutions, and records relating to their administration and management.

Prior to the 19th century, charity schools existed in some places, but most parishes had no educational provision. The National Society for Promoting the Education of the Poor in the Principles of the Established Church (usually known as the National Society, and now known as the National Society for Promoting Religious Education) was formed in 1811 and opened Church of England schools, known as National Schools, in many parishes during the 19th century.

The Education Act 1870 authorized the formation of school boards to establish or take over responsibility for schools in areas of inadequate educational provision. Board Schools were not affiliated to the Church of England, and were often nonconformist in nature.

The functions and property of school boards were transferred to local education authorities in 1903, the Board Schools becoming Council Schools, and the National Schools becoming Church of England Schools.

The best introduction to the development of education in Gloucestershire currently available is A H Platts and G H Hainton, Education in Gloucestershire (Gloucestershire County Council, 1954) (available at Gloucestershire Archives).

Electoral records

Electoral registers begin in 1832. The South Gloucestershire parishes were covered by the Western Division of Gloucestershire between 1832 and 1885, and then by the Thornbury Division until 1948 when some were transferred to the South Gloucestershire Division and some to the Thornbury and Stroud Division. In 1954 the Thornbury and Stroud Division separated and the southern parishes moved to the South Gloucestershire Division. The parishes in the South Gloucestershire Division were transferred to the new Avon Division in 1974. Researchers should check the information for the individual parishes in the introduction to this guide for notes on the Divisions each parish was in.

552

Gloucestershire Archives holds registers for the Western, Thornbury and Thornbury and Stroud Divisions, up to 1954 (Q/REr, Gloucestershire Archives), and these will be made available on the Ancestry website during 2015.

Bristol Archives holds Bristol poll books, 1715-1847; Bristol electoral registers, 1843-1900 (available in the searchroom, Bristol Archives)

Estate and family records

These collections are extremely varied in content and in the survival rate of the documentation originally created by the estate and family. They include personal, family and testamentary papers, records relating to the running of large and small estates, maps and plans, and title deeds, although where possible references to deeds have been extracted and placed under the ‘Deeds’ category in the list of sources.

Hospitals and health services

This category includes records of the hospitals and asylums in the South Gloucestershire area, as well as other health-related records including those of child health clinics, district nursing associations and health authorities. For a detailed overview of hospital and asylum provision in Bristol, see the introduction to this guide.

Inclosure

Early in the 18th century a great series of private acts of enclosure of land by landowners, was passed before the General Inclosure Act of 1845. Inclosure maps were drawn up by surveyors, appointed by inclosure commissioners, to show the approved re-allotment of the open and common fields, and waste. The maps depict, in detail, a post-inclosure plan of each parish with the lines of the new boundary hedges or fences, drains, and roads. Occasionally the boundaries of the former open fields and commons are also shown.

Inclosure maps often provide the first accurate mapping of an area, and in some cases the first map of any kind. At least two copies of each map and award were made, one to be held in the parish and the other enrolled at the Quarter Sessions. Sometimes a third copy was also made for

Page 554: A guide to archive sources for the history of South ... · The Corporation of Bristol had begun to purchase estates in the surrounding countryside by the 16th and early 17th centuries,

553

the local landowner. In many cases the copies for South Gloucestershire parishes are now with the Bristol Archives or the Gloucestershire Archives amongst the parish collections, Quarter Sessions papers, solicitors or estate and family collections.

Records relating to inclosure include the maps, awards detailing the occupiers and state of cultivation of the land to be inclosed, the Inclosure Acts, and papers of the Inclosure Commissioners appointed to carry out the process.

Industry, trade and business

This category covers the records of the industries, trades and businesses in the South Gloucestershire area, including records of the mining and quarrying industry, the manufacturing industry, and businesses such as solicitors, architects and estate agents. It also includes records of smaller businesses such as shops and tradesmen, and records relating to the general economy of the area.

The following sub-categories have been used:

Industry, trade and business - general

Industry, trade and business - architects

Industry, trade and business - banking

Industry, trade and business - brewing and public houses

Industry, trade and business - estate agents

Industry, trade and business - farming

Industry, trade and business - fisheries

Industry, trade and business – manufacturing and engineering

Industry, trade and business - merchants and retailers

Industry, trade and business - mining and quarrying

Industry, trade and business - solicitors

This category lists the office records of solicitors’ practices in South Gloucestershire. However, solicitors’ archives not only concern their practices but also include the papers of their clients and many organisations with which they were involved. These include many deeds and related papers concerning south Gloucestershire families, charities, societies and other organisations, which have been listed under the relevant subject categories in this guide.

Records relating to South Gloucestershire can be found among the records of firms practicing in South Gloucestershire, but also firms from Bristol and other parts of Gloucestershire.

Industry, trade and business - tradesmen

Lieutenancy

The Lieutenant of the County, now called the Lord Lieutenant, was first appointed in Gloucestershire in 1569, as the officer commanding the local militia. The surviving records relate, however, largely to the period after the reorganization of the militia in 1852. A list of the known Lords Lieutenant was printed in the Transactions of the Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society vol 70 p154 and vol 71 pp174-5, and an account of the militia organization appears in the Guide to Quarter Sessions and official records (see p76). An account of the evolution of the office of Deputy Lieutenant is given in [D J H Smith], A history of the appointment of Deputy Lieutenant in Gloucestershire, Gloucestershire County Council, [1986].

Local authorities: boroughs and district councils

Bristol has been a city and county in its own right since 1373, and has a long tradition of recordkeeping from the Middle Ages to the present day. The records of the Corporation of Bristol and its Committees are held at Bristol Archives; for a more detailed overview of the administration of the City of Bristol, and the Rural and Urban District Councils that were absorbed into Bristol between 1897 and 1904, see the introduction to this guide.

In the wider county of Gloucestershire, local government remained largely in the hands of the ecclesiastical parish vestries until the late 19th century. Poor law unions had been given certain public health powers relating to rural areas on their creation in 1832, and in 1872 they were constituted Rural Sanitary Authorities for their districts. The Local Government Act 1894 redesignated urban and rural sanitary authorities as urban and rural district councils, subject to a requirement that, where possible, the whole of a rural district should lie in one county, which led to some rearrangement of names and boundaries at the fringes of Gloucestershire.

The districts created in 1894 were subject to some modification as a result of changes in the southern county boundary in 1897-1904, and to a general modification and rationalization in 1935. The urban and rural districts created at this time remained intact until 1974, when as a result of the Local Government Act 1972, the county of Avon was created from the parishes in the south of Gloucestershire, the city of Bristol and the north of Somerset. The Gloucestershire parishes were covered at district council level by Northavon District and Kingswood Borough.

The functions of district councils include planning and building control.

Page 556: A guide to archive sources for the history of South ... · The Corporation of Bristol had begun to purchase estates in the surrounding countryside by the 16th and early 17th centuries,

555

Additionally, many small towns and large villages had anciently acquired some of the attributes of borough status but were not accepted as boroughs under the Municipal Corporations Act 1835. Their records usually include minutes, accounts and title deeds, and often papers concerning schools and charities.

The history of local government functions is analysed in successive editions of W E Jackson, The structure of local government in England and Wales; for particular functions the reader is referred to Macmillan, Local Government Law and Administration, 1934 (14 vols), with annual updates to 1972. (These books are available at Gloucestershire Archives)

Local authorities: Gloucestershire County Council

County Councils were established by the Local Government Act 1888 to carry out most of the administrative work previously done by the court of Quarter Sessions. The administrative history of Gloucestershire County Council to 1974 is discussed in some detail in M J Kerr History of Gloucestershire County Council (Gloucestershire County Council, 1977) (available at Gloucestershire Archives). The principal services for which the Council has at some time been responsible include education, highways, planning, public health and the social services.

The local government reorganization of 1974 created a new county of Avon, to which the southern portion of Gloucestershire was transferred. Avon County Council was abolished on 31 March 1996 as a result of a further reorganisation. The area of Avon formerly in Gloucestershire was constituted a new unitary authority named South Gloucestershire with effect from 1 April 1996. In 1974 many files relating wholly to Avon were transferred to the new County Council; the surviving records of that Council are now administered for the new authorities by Bristol Archives.

The following sub-categories have been used:

Gloucestershire County Council - general

Gloucestershire County Council - boundaries

Gloucestershire County Council - building, planning and development

Local authorities: Avon County Council

Avon County Council was established under the local government reorganization of 1974 and came into power on 1 April 1974. It covered the south of the historic county of Gloucestershire, the city of Bristol and the north of the historic county of Somerset. It was abolished in 1996 and replaced by the unitary authorities of South Gloucestershire, Bristol, and Bath and North East Somerset.

Page 557: A guide to archive sources for the history of South ... · The Corporation of Bristol had begun to purchase estates in the surrounding countryside by the 16th and early 17th centuries,

556

Local authorities: South Gloucestershire Council

South Gloucestershire Council was formed in 1996 and took over the administration of the area of Avon formerly in the historic county of Gloucestershire. It is a unitary authority and therefore covers all aspects of local government, including planning and building control, education and social care.

Local history and antiquarian records

This category includes works on local history, guides and histories, and collections of antiquarians and local historians. Many of these collections include original documents such as deeds, wills and apprenticeship indentures.

Manorial records

The manorial system was well-established throughout the country by the time of Domesday Book. The manor was a unit of land usually held by a lord of the manor as a tenant of the Crown; the lord would then allow others to occupy part of the manor as tenants.

The main series of records found here relate to the manor courts and the occupation of land: a tenant would be admitted to the property at a session of the manor court, and this would be recorded in the court proceedings. The tenant would then be given a copy of the proceedings as proof of his tenancy, hence the term “copyhold”. The copyhold system was finally abolished in 1922.

Researchers should also check under the ‘Deeds’ and ‘Estate and Family’ categories, as related documents are often to be found in collections of those types. Additionally, the Manorial Documents Register for Gloucestershire, available via the National Archives’ Discovery site (discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk), includes references to all known manorial documents relating to the historic county.

557

Maps

This category covers references to maps and plans including inclosure, tithe, estate and parish maps. Gloucestershire Archives holds the first, second and third edition Ordnance Survey maps for the historic county of Gloucestershire (dated c.1880, c.1902 and c.1919 respectively), and subsequent 20th century Ordnance Survey editions for the historic county, mostly dating between the 1950s and 1970s; coverage is not yet complete but the collection is being added to whenever possible. Bristol Archives holds first and second edition Ordnance Survey maps for Bristol and environs.

Inclosure: Early in the 18th century a great series of private acts of enclosure of land by landowners, was passed before the General Inclosure Act of 1845. Inclosure maps were drawn up by surveyors, appointed by inclosure commissioners, to show the approved re-allotment of the open and common fields, and waste. The maps depict, in detail, a post-inclosure plan of each parish with the lines of the new boundary hedges or fences, drains, and roads. Occasionally the boundaries of the former open fields and commons are also shown.

Inclosure maps often provide the first accurate mapping of an area, and in some cases the first map of any kind. At least two copies of each map and award were made, one to be held in the parish and the other enrolled at the Quarter Sessions. Sometimes a third copy was also made for the local landowner. In many cases the copies for South Gloucestershire parishes are now with the Bristol Archives or the Gloucestershire Archives amongst the parish collections, Quarter Sessions papers, solicitors or estate and family collections.

Tithe: The 1836 Tithe Act changed tithes from payment in kind to a financial amount based on current crop prices. To enable these payments to be assessed maps were produced. These large scale maps and the apportionments (awards) for each plot of land were prepared between 1838 and 1847. Three copies of each map were prepared of which one was deposited with the Tithe Commissioners (who have a set for the whole country), one with the incumbent of each parish and one with the Bishop. The diocesan copies of these maps for those parishes in the Bristol Diocese are in the Bristol Archives (EP/A/32). They also have some of the parish copies as well. There are no tithe maps for the Bristol City parishes but there are maps for Clifton and St Philip and Jacob out parish. A similar collection for the parishes in the Gloucester Diocese is in the Gloucestershire Archives

Military and wartime

This category includes references to militia forces and the regular army, civil defence, and both World Wars. Researchers interested in military history in Gloucestershire should consult Gloucestershire Archives’ Handlist of Military Records (available from www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/archives) for more detailed references to military subjects in the records held at Gloucestershire Archives.

558

Newspapers

Gloucestershire newspapers are kept in the Gloucestershire Archives and some report on South Gloucestershire affairs. Bristol newspapers are kept in Bristol Central Library and they too report on South Gloucestershire matters.

Copies of newspapers for the Bristol area can be seen on microfilm at Bristol Central Library. Hard copies are kept of the current newspapers and the originals of the old papers are held at the Library.

Nonconformists

The records of nonconformist chapels typically comprise memoranda books (often called church books), registers of members, minutes of deacons' and elders' meetings, accounts, and records of chapel-based societies and Sunday Schools. Although many chapels have now deposited their records, others are known to retain early records, usually in the keeping of the Chapel Secretary. Guidance on the use of nonconformist records for genealogy may be found in Gloucestershire Family History, published by Gloucestershire Archives (3rd ed. 1993) (available at Gloucestershire Archives)

South Gloucestershire has a long tradition of nonconformity; John Wesley and George Whitefield preached in Kingswood and as a result Methodism was particularly strong in the area. The Society of Friends was strong in Frenchay, and many other denominations also had a presence in the area. For a more detailed overview of nonconformity in South Gloucestershire, see the introduction to this guide.

An index to some nonconformist baptism registers forms part of Gloucestershire Archives’ Genealogical Database (available via www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/archives).

The following sub-categories have been used:

Nonconformists - general

Nonconformists - Baptist

Nonconformists - Congregational and United Reformed Church

Nonconformists - Methodist

Nonconformists - Society of Friends

559

Parish Councils

Parish Councils and Meetings were established by the Local Government Act 1894 to perform the civil duties still the responsibility of Anglican vestries. Councils were set up for every parish in a Rural District with a population of more than 300 and for those parishes with a population of more than 200 where the electors so wished. Parish Meetings are held at least twice a year in other parishes.

The main series of records are minutes and accounts, but other classes of material illustrating the wide interests of some larger Councils have been deposited. This category also covers references to papers from the archives of Gloucestershire County Council relating to individual Parish Councils.

Parish records

In addition to keeping records of their own administration and property, the Church of England parishes preserved material relating to the wide range of civil functions which they developed from the 16th century onwards, principally the operation of the poor laws and the maintenance of the highways. As the only generally available place of secure storage in rural areas, parish chests became repositories for many other types of record, such as those of local schools. Acts of Parliament required that copies of tithe and inclosure awards should be deposited in them. It is therefore not surprising that parish collections are extremely varied; an introduction to the main classes of records will be found in W E Tate, The Parish Chest (Cambridge University Press, 3rd edition, 1969). Published lists of the principal records for each parish in Gloucestershire were made by I Gray and E Ralph, Guide to the parish records of the city of Bristol and the county of Gloucester (Bristol & Gloucestershire Archaeological Society, 1963), although these have now been superseded by the reports of inspections carried out under the provisions of the Parochial Registers and Records Measure 1978. Guidance for genealogists on the use of parish records and other genealogical sources is available in several Gloucestershire Archives publications, especially Gloucestershire Family History (3rd edition, 1993), and the Handlist of Genealogical Records which provides full details of the coverage of all parish registers and transcripts held in the Gloucestershire Record Office up to 2002. (These books are all available at Gloucestershire Archives)

Following the Local Government Act 1894 which established parish councils and meetings, the ownership of records of civil administration formerly undertaken by ecclesiastical parishes was transferred to the new councils. As in the main there was no physical separation of the civil and ecclesiastical records, however, and as the civil records in question were created by officers of the ecclesiastical parishes, these records have been included in the lists below, and only records of civil parish administration after 1894 have been listed under Parish Councils.

560

Parish archives typically include registers of baptisms, marriages and burials, records relating to the property and income of the parish, papers of the incumbents, and records of the various other functions which were the responsibility of the parish, including poor relief, inclosure, tithe, church societies and church schools. An index to the records of the overseers of the poor held within parish collections at Gloucestershire Archives forms part of Gloucestershire Archives’ Genealogical Database (available at www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/archives).

The parish registers held at Gloucestershire Archives are available on the Ancestry website.

Photographs

Photographs can be found in many archive collections; this category highlights some of the main sources.

Planning and building control

Legislation in the 19th century, including the Local Government Act 1858 and the Public Health Act 1875, enabled local authorities to require that plans of any new buildings or alterations to existing ones should be deposited, in order to regulate and control building construction. Several similar Acts during the first half of the 20th century imposed further restrictions, until the Town and Country Planning Act 1947, which established that planning permission was needed for any development. The Act also reorganised the planning system, making county and borough councils responsible for planning in their own area and requiring that each authority should produce a comprehensive local development plan, which is then used to assess planning applications. Planning regulations govern the use of land, the appearance of buildings and developments, and their impact on the landscape and buildings around them.

District councils are responsible for building control, which uses building regulations to ensure that building work conforms to standards of health and safety.

Until 1974, South Gloucestershire’s planning was overseen by the South Gloucestershire Planning Committee of Gloucestershire County Council, subsequently being taken over by Avon County Council and from 1996 South Gloucestershire Council. Building control was overseen by the various rural and urban district councils; after 1974 it was overseen by Kingswood Borough Council and Northavon District Council, and from 1996 it has been overseen by South Gloucestershire Council.

Police, fire brigade and ambulance services

Bristol Constabulary was formed in 1835, and the rural police force in Gloucestershire was set up by the Court of Quarter Sessions in the early 1840s, in spite of petitions in 1841-1842 from many parishes who thought such a force was an unnecessary expense (Q/AP/8/1, Gloucestershire Archives). In 1974, Avon and Somerset Constabulary was formed from the Bristol and Bath City Constabularies, Somerset Constabulary and the Staple Hill Division of Gloucestershire Constabulary, which comprised the police stations at Chipping Sodbury, Filton, Staple Hill and Thornbury.

Fire brigades were formed and run locally until the Fire Brigades Act of 1938, which constituted local authorities as fire authorities and gave them the responsibility for the provision of fire services. The local fire brigades were brought under the control of the National Fire Service during the Second World War, but after the war the Fire Service Act of 1947 returned the responsibility for fire fighting, the protection of people and property and the supply of fire hydrants and water to the local authorities. On local government reorganisation in 1974, the Bath and Bristol city fire brigades, the Somerset county brigade and the southern part of the Gloucestershire brigade amalgamated to form the Avon Fire Service, which was renamed the Avon Fire and Rescue Service in 2006.

After the creation of the National Health Service in 1947, ambulance services were the responsibility of local authorities. On local government reorganisation in 1974 the responsibility for ambulance provision moved from local authorities to the National Health Service. The Avon Ambulance Service was formed in 1974, and in 2006 it merged with the Gloucestershire and Wiltshire services to form the Great Western Ambulance Service.

Poor relief and social care

The City of Bristol passed a private Poor Relief Act in 1696, amalgamating the nineteen parishes within the city for poor relief purposes and establishing the first Board of Guardians and the first workhouse in England, at St Peter’s Hospital. The Board was known as the Bristol Corporation of the Poor. The archives of the Corporation were held at St Peter’s Hospital which was destroyed by enemy action in 1940, and consequently only a few records survive. For a more detailed overview of poor relief in Bristol, see the introduction to this guide.

In Gloucestershire, each parish was responsible for its own poor until the passing of the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834. This ended the system which had operated since the 16th century, by which every parish was responsible for its own poor (and for which, see W E Tate, The Parish Chest, 3rd edition, 1969) (available at Gloucestershire Archives). The parishes were now compelled to form Poor Law Unions, administered by Boards of Guardians, each of which had a workhouse.

The poor law unions were soon seen by central government as useful maids of all work, and were allocated additional responsibilities including rating valuation, sanitation and public health, and school attendance. Some of these functions were passed to the urban and rural district

councils in 1894 or 1927. Unions were abolished in 1930, when the County Council took over the workhouses as public assistance institutions, and central government assumed direct responsibility for other aspects of the work of the Guardians.

The varied records produced by Boards of Guardians have been described in A Handlist of the records of the Boards of Guardians in the County of Somerset (Somerset County Council, 1949) (available at Gloucestershire Archives). In Gloucestershire, the records of workhouse administration frequently continue after 1930 in their new guise as Public Assistance Institution records. Public Assistance Institutions were themselves abolished by the National Health Service Act 1946, and from 1948 the buildings were either closed or became hospitals or old people's homes.

An index to the records of the overseers of the poor held within parish collections at Gloucestershire Archives forms part of Gloucestershire Archives’ Genealogical Database (available at www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/archives).

Roman Catholic records

Roman Catholicism attracted few adherents in Gloucestershire before the 19th century. The Diocese of Clifton preserves centrally the records of parishes for which it is responsible, but some records have been deposited at Bristol Archives.

Sale particulars

Sale particulars of private and commercial property can be found in many business and official archives. They typically include detailed descriptions of the property for sale, and often also include maps and photographs.

Societies and voluntary organisations

This category covers the records of many very diverse societies and organisations, from sports clubs to social organisations, from the Women’s Institute to village hall committees, local history societies and the National Farmers’ Union. The records of societies and organisations often include much local information, and the archives of local history societies in particular often include original documents relating to their local area.

Taxation and valuation

Land Tax assessments were carried out for every parish in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Early returns give names of owners, and of occupiers from 1781. Sometimes descriptions of property and rentals are given. After c.1800 a tabulated form of entry, including a description of the property, becomes general. After 1799 tax exonerated is distinguished. From 1825 a standard printed form gives rental, owners, and occupiers, sums assessed and exonerated, sums assessed and not exonerated; and from 1826 a description of the property. Rentals entered are nominal, being based on the 1691 assessment.

The Land Tax assessment returns for parishes in South Gloucestershire are held at Gloucesteshire Archives, reference Q/REl and reference D12430. They will be made available on the Ancestry website during 2015.

The Finance Act 1910 required the valuation of all land in order to calculate duties to be paid. The records produced as part of the surveying and valuation process include marked-up Ordnance Survey sheets, and books of reference or “Domesday books”, which contain a precis of the valuation, with owner, occupier, description of property, street or parish poor rate assessment, map reference, extent, value and deductions.

The Finance Act maps and books of reference for parishes in South Gloucestershire are held at Gloucestershire Archives, reference D2428.

Travel and transport

This category includes records relating to canals and river navigations, footpaths, railways, roads and highways.

A major source for this subject is the series of plans and schemes for public undertakings involving capital investment from private sources requiring the assent of Parliament. These are part of the archive of the Gloucestershire Quarter Sessions, and include schemes for the building, alteration and improvement of canals, rivers, footpaths, railways and roads and cover the whole of South Gloucestershire as well as the City of Bristol, dating from the 18th to the 20th century.

Wills

Wills and inventories proved in the Consistory Court of the Diocese of Gloucester between 1541 and 1858. A name index to the wills and inventories proved in the Diocese between 1541 and 1858 forms part of Gloucestershire Archives’ Genealogical Database (available at www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/archives), and the wills and inventories themselves are available on the Ancestry website.

Wills proved in the Consistory Court of the Diocese of Bristol, for the City and Deanery of Bristol, between 1546 and 1858, and registered copies of wills proved in the Bristol District Probate Registry between 1858 and 1941 are held at Bristol Archives.

The Great Orphan Book, a register of the Bristol Court of Orphans, contains copies of wills pertaining to the estates of orphans in Bristol, 1379-1595, and is held at Bristol Archives. The wills in that volume were proved in various courts, including the Prerogative Court of Canterbury, Lambeth, Wells, Worcester and the Bristol Court of Orphans.

Stray copies of wills may exist in estate and family, solicitors’, charity and parish collections.

Indexes to all wills proved after 1858 are held at the local probate offices in both Gloucester and Bristol. Registered copies of wills proved in the Gloucester District Probate Registry between 1858 and 1941 are kept at Gloucestershire Archives; registered copies of wills proved in the Bristol District Probate Registry between 1858 and 1941 are kept at Bristol Archives.
