1911 Census
Needs a lot of working out! Lot's
of Crossing out on the original census form. The enumerator may have had a word
with the family. On Mary's line it clearly state that she gave birth to seven
children all surviving. Therefore all children on this census form must all be
her illegitimate children. She must have been a pretty tough lady working as a
Colliery Banksman! Also her 17 yearold daughter working as a labourer in a brick
yard.

This interested me as Betty was my fathers Sister.
My father was born in Old George

Their parents were Harry Powdrill and

hearing this story being mentioned in the family. I

Memories from Tony Smedley
Grandad Sam Smedley was of course a keen bee-keeper and looked after hives for a
number of other people. Derek and I once accompanied him to a farm on Smisby
Road (the name of which temporarily escapes me, but is now an industrial site, I
believe) There was a big walled
garden in which were a number of hives.
Sam never wore any protective clothing and used a makeshift smoker, and
we lads were rather scared of the swarms of buzzing bees.
He said " They wunner hurt you! Stick your head in a bush if they come
for you!" I remember that with good
reason, I stuck my head in a bush and got stung on my bottom - we wore
short trousers of course. For many
years I believed that it was due to his weird sense of humour. I am not sure,
but I think the farmer's wife applied some sort of relief.
They also had a pet young horse, which trotted around
quite freely and came into the kitchen whilst we were there. I suppose
that it was in fact quite small, but it terrified me!
Sam was frequently called out to deal with wasps nests.
He used such things a s cyanide which would be very diffcult today!
On one olcc asion we went with him to eradicate a nest on the banks of
the "river" behind Smisby road
which was close to the footpath and had resulted in too many stings.
He used something, probably cyanide, to kill off the wasps and we went
back later to dig out the nest. This was carried back home to Burton and
we put in the "back bedroom" which Derek and I used as a playroom.
The next morning the room was full of wasps, which did not make Mam very
happy and scared us!

This reference to Jabez in a history of
Doddridge Memorial Congregational Church, Northampton
Quote ---- When the Education
League was established in St. James' in 1898, some of its most active workers
were recruited from the two Nonconformist chapels, Harlestone Road Primitive
Methodist and Doddridge Memorial. At that time, St. James' had only the Church
of England School—in common with the larger proportion of English villages.
In the church minutes, the first reference to the coming storm occurs in August
1898. Messrs. Whitford, Lack, and Edward Lewis were appointed representatives on
the committee to deal with the provision of religious teaching for those
children whose parents exercised their right to withdraw them from religious
instruction of a denominational nature. Alternative teaching was provided at St.
James' Hall—the old cafe on the Square, —and the two Nonconformist ministers,
Rev. Jabez Bell of Harlestone Road, and Rev. T. Neale, were responsible for
arranging it. Feeling ran high, causing " the falling out of faithful friends,"
and the vigilance of parents was enlisted to prevent anything in the nature of
undue " persuasion."
