1872 William Coxon - Holbeach Directory pg 744-750 - Transcribed

Hugh Christopher Coxon, farmer, Battlefields and Mr William Coxon, Chancery Street are listed on page 745. Hugh C. Coxon, Battlefields is also listed under Farmers on page 749.

William Coxon could be Christopher's and Charles' Father. Hugh C. Coxon I don't think is a direct relation. jhc

the head master must be either a Master or Bachelor of Arts, the school is free for reading, writing and arithmetic to all the boys of the parish. Those who learn the classics pay 20s. each per quarter. A scheme in Chancery for the future management of the school was obtained about 27 years ago ; by it the head master is allowed to take 12 boarders. The school is now entirely conducted by the second master, Mr. Webb, and there are about 200 boys on the foundation. The school was formerly held in a part of the church, but a new and commodious school room was built in 1814, at the cost of about £500. The poor widows and widowers of Holbeach have £10 yearly for bread and plums, from 2A. of land, left by Adlard Squire Stukely, in 1730; and £5 for coals, left by Jacob Davey. The poor have also £5 a year in coals, the interest of £100, left by Thomas Bradley, in 1794 ; and £29 in bread from 5A. 1R. 17P. of land, left by J. Everson, in 1802. There is also distributed on St. Thomas' Day £112, of which £50 arises from 9A. 3R. l0P. of land, left by Richard Darby, about 1670, and the remainder from several rent-charges and plots of land, given by various donors. They have also the interest of £100 three per cents. left in 1842 by J. Morse, Esq., to be given away in blankets, &c., at Christmas; and also the interest of a like sum, left in 1858, by the late Dr. Maltby, Bishop of Durham, and sometime vicar of Holbeach. The workhouse land (3A.) is supposed to have been given to the poor by R. Davye, about 1660. E. Copeman, Esq., of this town, has for some years past let about 8A. of land in small allotments to poor men, at moderate rents ; and seeing the success and benefit attendant on this, a "Land Allotment Society" was ·established in 1870, for the purpose of obtaining land for the same object. They have now about l0A., let in lots of a rood each. Mr. F. G. Lemon is honorary secretary.

There are lodges of Odd Fellows and Foresters and several other Benefit Societies. The Fire Brigade consists of eight men, with three engines, of which one is in the town, one in the Marsh, and one in the Fen.

1876-08-24 Picnic in the Grove of Mr. W. D. Stewart

RED ROCK.

--- The Sabbath-school connected with the Christian church, will hold its annual picnic in the grove of Mr. W. D. Stewart[1] on Wednesday the 30th. The Sabbath- school of New Britain is expected to unite in the festival. A general invitation is extended to all who desire to share in the pleasures of the occasion.

--- As J. D. Park, with his mother, wife and little daughter, was driving to church on Sunday last, the harness broke just as they reached the top of what is known as Park' hill letting the wagon against the horse, who immediately began to run. The driver kept the horse in the road as best he could, and the whole party took a fearful ride down the hill, around a curve, and across the bridge on the lower side of which was a deep ravine. After running about 20 rods beyond the bridge the horse fell, and thus his race was brought to a close with only slight damage to the horse and wagon. The escape of the party from serious injury was marvelous and providential. It was with some degree of satisfaction that Mr. Park remembered his accident policy in the Traveler’s Insurance company.

1878 Description of Red Rock in History of Columbia County

RED ROCK

is the name applied to an extended settlement along the creek, in the southwestern part of the town. The locality was formerly known as Pilfershire, but in 1825 a huge rock along the roadside was painted red, and crowned with a wooden column, to commemorate the change of name. In 1860 a marble shaft was placed on the rock by the inhabitants and former citizens of the place, and dedicated with imposing ceremonies. It bears the time of erection, and the date of 1750, as the time of the settlement of the place.

The place contains several mills and churches, and numbers about one hundred inhabitants. The store and post office is kept by James J. Powell. Other merchants were Cyprian Powell, Daniel G. Thorpe, and J. W. Vincent.

1878-12-17 Frederick Carlton Goodrich marries Ida Frances Acker Carpenter

They got right to work: Frederick Lorenzo Goodrich, my grandfather, was born on Christmas day, 1879, first of 11.

FCG to IFC. My mother found this ring in her garden. I always wondered how it got there.

I have a theory. Ida died in 1919. Frederick died in 1927. Mom was born in 1910. Mom saw the house burn. I'll bet it was in the burning house after Ida died. Did it burn before Frederick died?
