Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A House of Letters On the parchment cover of an old diary (forerunner of many) is inscribed: "Memorandum Book, From My Birth, 1776, Till July, 1795." It was written at Stonham Aspall, Suffolk, in a house that overlooked the village green there, from which it was fenced by a hedge of poplars, planted by William Betham, the Diarist´s father. To distinguish this William from other William Bethams, he will, in this book, be designated the Poplar-planter. He migrated to Suffolk from the northwestern Fells. The first of the family who can be authenticated was a man named Ralph. The only definite statement as to his forbears that has been found is in the Lancashire Assize Rolls 30-31, Hen: III., M. 12 (1244-45) relative to a suit brought against his son, Sir Thomas, for exercising right of common in "Yholand," though its lord, Mathew de Redman, exercised no such rights in Betham.
