“25 Feb 1691: Henry Prewett of West Hanham and Henry Braine of Bitton, gamekeepers, heard the report of a gun and found a deer newly shot and wounded to death and looking about them they found the footsteps of a man, and following these footsteps, they came to Katherine Melsome’s house and upon reaching the house they found in a cockloft which had no way to it but by a trapdoor without steps or ladder, three pieces of venison newly killed with a great deal of parts of deer and blood. Searching the premises again next day they came across a hand gun hidden in the thatched roof of a pigsty. Katherine denied all knowledge saying that her new husband Isaac Lennett had let the cottage. Isaac himself, called up by Francis Creswick 3 days later, said, all innocence, well, yes, he did use the cottage, he sold ale there, but he let it out when he could, and suddenly – cocky with it – why even the justices held meetings there! Later Isaac confessed to the deer, he had taken it to Bath & sold it for 55 shillings. Later he retracted the confession, and then opened a coalpit and was cutting down trees for his propping.” (Gamekeepers’ depositions, Ellacombe).

Worked at Coalpit Heath last in 1930s, until last pit closed. Had 2 fingers crushed and got £50 compensation from Coalpit Heath. Married Florence Emily Winstone, a cook at Fishponds Lunatic Asylum. Their children were Gert, Stanley (informant) Harold, Hilda, Edith & Harry. Always bathed in front of fire, Had abt 30-36/- pw. Stanley followed his father down the pit. Was on the committee of the Union. The rider in No.2 was Jack Drake.  Johnny Barnes and Henry Williams, worked with Stanley at Hanham. Worked at the Duchesses under Stapleton, about 4 miles, by compass, “nearly walked to my doom. The main shaft was running in water all the time, with 2 pumps, one used to run outside the lily pond at Speedwell. At Speedwell worked with Fred and Bert Crew, also with Bert Tripp, the father of the taxi driver who was shot and murdered” (the murder was about 1950). Dan Jones was his boss. Also worked with under-manager Tansy Lee, and Zeph Stone: “he had a nasty scar on his cheek where he was  caught by a piece of coal. Cyril Todd, that was another one there. Between 1928 & 1930 Jack Hemery a fireman was killed, he had his lamp between his legs, gassed, dragged out by two other men. This was in Dad’s time. I heard of a banksman who was killed, he went round Toghill and the corner of his coat caught in the gear and there were teeth marks right through his stomach. There’s still plenty of coal there now, lovely steam coal, we weren’t sent deep enough.” (I met Stanley on 7.4.1981)

The following letter written 4 November 1684 to Sir John Newton by his estate bailiff. (Not Thomas Dafter as he married in 1684, just after this letter as written, and this writer refers to his wife and children.)  It gives a taste of the bad feeling and innumerable disputes in Kingswood between the Newton’s, with the rest of the “lords” of Kingswood, and Francis Creswick of Hanham Court. I have to say that Francis was in the right, but they got him in the end when he was arrested on a trumped up charge of consorting with Monmouth and the rebels in 1685.

 

“This day came Mr Creswick abt ii o’clock and knockt att my door and askt  my wife to speake with me. When I came he said that I might remember that I was named one of the defendants to their bill and that now they had obtained a decree upon it passed on Monday last and by the decree my house with John Batts was decreed to them and said that he came to take possession thereof if I would deliver it quietlye. I told him I could not do it untill I had an answer from yor worship. Then he said that if I would not, he would take it by force verye shortly. I told him I hoped not soe: there was with him old Dover, Will Braine and 3 of their new keepers. I know not their names; they came from Hen Hopes where they took all his guns and shott at the ferretts att the borrow where he was hunting and tooke away what rabbitts he catcht. Sir, these pceedings doe extremely amaze us but I doe not in the least question but that you will in the next post send us some comfort. Att their coming my Children doe run out of the house Crying sadly for fear they should kill me or their mother. You will heare further of their pceedings shortly in more particular now mine & my wifes most humble service to yore worshipp.”

 

(I have added  punctuation and have substituted “the” for “ye” and “that” for “yt” as the “ys” are shorthand for “th”. Otherwise I have left the spelling. The late Mollie Ashley made the transcription).
