  6. 📢 ERTHYGL NEWYDD 📢 NEW ARTICLE 📢
    VALENTINE MORRIS (1727 - 1789), colonial administrator and landowner
    'On his father's death in 1743, Morris inherited the Piercefield estate, along with substantial plantations in Antigua including a great number of enslaved people. These included Looby's, Crabb's, and Martin's in St Paul Parish in southern Antigua and Jolly's in St Mary Parish in western Antigua. In 1776, Morris was rated as owning 1,004 acres on the island, which was worked by 284 enslaved people. As Ivor Waters strikingly puts it, 'The elegant Valentine Morris owned Piercefield in Monmouthshire, worth £50,000 and Piercefield, a slave in Antigua, worth £10.' He was largely an absentee plantation owner while in Britain, apart from a visit to Antigua in 1754 following a period of drought there.' -- Adam Coward

  9. Now looking through Selkirk Presbytery records (freely available online at ScotlandsPeople.gov.uk). And marvelling at one 1715 spelling of Buccleuch.

  13. Continuing my browse through Cupar Presbytery records, trying to distract myself from the quite horrific crime recorded in 1745. Pleased to be finding Jacobite references in 1716. Reports of local Fife Jacobites. As well as women scandalously dancing late at night with the "highland men" / "Rebels". #Jacobites #Scotland #Fife #ScottishHistory #History #18thCentury #EighteenthCentury #ChurchOfScotland #ChurchCourts #Crime

    "As it is from suffering, and not from inflicting torment, that the true idea of them is gained."

    A real find (for me), thank you for the recommendation! Jane lived not far from where I live now.

    I too like to dip into the 18th century, occasionally,
    --- my soul however lives somewhere in continental 19th century ... :-).

  21. Pleased to see the March 2024 issue of Burns Chronicle is newly out from EUP. This issue includes my book review of "Scottish Poetry, 1730-1830" edited by Daniel Cook - a review free for all to read online. In a nutshell I really liked it, though since I was asked to write about 1000 words in my review I said much more than that! euppublishing.com/toc/burns/13 #ScottishLiterature #ScottishPoetry #RobertBurns #Poetry #18thCentury #EighteenthCentury #Scots #ScotsLeid #Gaelic #Poems #BookReview #Scotland

  28. Ooh, just got my copy of Teaching the Eighteenth Century Now, edited by Kate Parker and Miriam Wallace, with essays by Tiffany Potter, Ziona Kocher, Kate Parker, Teri Doerksen, Christine D. Myers, Diana Epelbaum, Matthew L. Reznicek, Travis Chi Wing Lau, Emily C. Casey, and Eugenia Zuroski. I'm not someone who gets many pedagogy books, but that lineup is full of people who have reshaped my thinking about the #EighteenthCentury #C18Studies over and over. Looks exciting!

  36. Some things are faster on their way to publication than others. Turns out, the head editor of the #Bywgraffiadur is a fast reader and gave the green light for my unabridged, original version to get published on my blog.

    So for those of you who enjoy their #HistoryOfMedicine, #MiningHistory, #EighteenthCentury and immigrants from #Germany with opinions about #MineralWaters in #Wales, I offer you a short biography of Diederich Wessel Linden (d.1769).
