1914 In 1939 register he was the hotel proprietor of Castle Hotel, Castle Street, Exeter.

The lost hotel
The block of buildings between Castle Street and Little Castle Street, was headed by the Castle Hotel at the lower end. The hotel was damaged during the May 1942 blitz, but remained in situ, with one casualty Henry George William Tremlett, aged 46 was injured and died at the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital on the 11 May 1942. All the shops along the High Street, on each side of the junction with Castle Street were destroyed in the bombing.

Work started in 1948 to lay the sewers and other services in the area, and by the early 1950s the wall along Bailey Street was strengthened and consolidated, and the remains of the Castle Hotel were demolished. The wall of the building above the hotel had massive, wooden buttressing put in place. The Westminster Bank was constructed in 1951 on the corner of Castle Street and High Street and Marks & Spencer's new store was built on the opposite corner. The road levels into Little Castle Street were rather awkward and some care was taken to ensure the approach was not too steep.

The buttressing became a feature of Castle Street and the Virginia Creeper a welcome addition to the bare timber. In the late 1980s, the buttressing was removed and a rather attractive retail unit, that was initially occupied by the fashion store Monsoon, was built on the site of the former Castle Hotel. It became Michael Spiers Jewellers and is now a centre for cosmetic dentistry.

The city library was opened in October 1930 at a cost of £55,000. Situated on the opposite side of Castle Street to the Castle Hotel, it was burnt out, with the loss of a million county books and documents in the 1942 bombing, but was restored after the war and extended in the 1960s.

Carol Middleton's Arderne line
Lynn Arderne shares with us the family's place in history: during the
English Civil War of the 17th century Sir Ralph Arderne (1608)
supported Oliver Cromwell but his son, Sir John Arderne, supported
King Charles II and went into exile with him until the Restoration,
when he was knighted at Whitehall and appointed Sheriff of Cheshire. A
similar situation arises during the Wars of Roses when our family
supported the Lancastrians, through marriage and property ties.

With thanks to Steve Brown, Lynn Arderne and Bruce Ardern Note from
Lynn Arderne: There is a South African branch to the family., begun in
the early 1800s, when a young Arderne son, Richard Crewe Arderne,
decided to make his fortune in South Africa. Unfortunately he and his
wife died shortly after arriving in SA in 1849 but their son, John
George Arderne (b. 1838), was the first male Arderne born in Africa
and the Southern African branch are all descended from this one man.

Bruce Ardern has Ardernes in Cheshire -- Altrincham, Timperley &
Mere.

DISCLAIMER: please bear in mind, some of the information on these
Arderne pages, especially the dates may be skewed. Since I am still
gathering material, I have not corrected the more obvious. Please
pardon those errors and know that in time, I hope to get it right.
Some newer material gleaned from "The Magna Charta Sureties" by
Frederick Lewis Weis.

Hi Ray:
You have obviously found another serious contradiction in Jerry's
genealogy.
He shows the line of descent as follows:
John De Arderne b abt 1266 m Margaret Griffith b abt 1270
John De Arderne bef 1308 m Alice Venables b abt 1308
Peter De Arderne b abt 1327 m Cicely De Bredbury b abt 1327
John De Arderne b abt 1350 m ?
Charles Arderne b ? m Elizabeth Radcliffe b ?
John De Arderne b ? m Ellen Duncalfe b ?
George Arderne b ? m ?
George Arderne II b abt 1350 m Katherine Palmer b abt 1350
Richard Arderne b abt 1380 m Margaret Greene b ?
Alicia Arderne b abt 1412 m John Denne b abt 1407
Michael Denne b abt 1440 m Christina Fort b ?

This shows that George Arderne II was born about the same year as his
great
great grandfather, John De Arderne!!!. Obviously there are some extra
generations inserted here. What is your record of how Richard Arderne b
abt
1380 descends from John De Arderne b bef 1308? If you will let me know I
will
inform Jerry and see what his comments are.

1920 In her burial entry, Mary was recorded as having been the daughter of John and Angela. LYON, Mary (I10161)
 
1921 In her own right, Countess of Ulster

Biography
She was born at Eltham Palace in Kent on 16 August 1355, the only child of Lionel of Antwerp, 1st Duke of Clarence, and Elizabeth de Burgh, 4th Countess of Ulster.[1] Her father was the third son, but second son to survive infancy, of King Edward III of England and Philippa of Hainault.[2]

Philippa married Edmund Mortimer, 3rd Earl of March, at the age of about thirteen in the Queen's Chapel at Reading Abbey,[1] an alliance that would have far-reaching consequences in English history. Her cousin, King Richard II, remained childless, making Philippa and her descendants next in line to the throne until his deposition. In the Wars of the Roses, the Yorkist claim to the crown was based on descent from Edward III through Philippa,[3] her son Roger Mortimer, and granddaughter Anne Mortimer, who married a son of the 1st Duke of York.

Philippa died in 1382, and was buried at Wigmore Abbey, Herefordshire.

Marriage and issue
Her children with Edmund Mortimer were as follows:

Roger Mortimer, 4th Earl of March 11 April 1374 20 July 1398 He married Lady Alianore Holland, by whom he had four children, Anne, Edmund Mortimer, 5th Earl of March, Eleanor, and Roger. The House of York's claim to the throne was through his eldest daughter, Anne Mortimer.
Lady Philippa Mortimer 21 November 1375 26 September 1400 She first married John Hastings, 3rd Earl of Pembroke. Her second husband was Richard Fitzalan, 11th Earl of Arundel, with whom she had a son, John, who died young. Her third husband was Sir Thomas Poynings of Basing, 5th Baron St. John.
Sir Edmund Mortimer 9 November 1376 before 13 May 1411 Married Catrin (Catherine) Glyndŵr, the daughter of Owain Glyndŵr. They had issue, possibly a son named Lionel, said to have died young,[4] and three daughters who died in the Tower of London alongside their mother.
And one other child, John de Mortimer (c. 1378–1424), Knight.

1925 In New Zealand, Andrew ran a newspaper, the “Tuapeka Times” in the small town of Lawrence, near Dunedin, in the south of New Zealand’s South Island. The Tuapeka Times was published in Lawrence, in Central Otago from 1868 to 1941. The Times was started by Andrew Ferguson, Andrew Burns and John Ludford. In 1869 the men took over the rival Tuapeka Press (1866-1869) and in 1881 sold the enterprise to Thomas and Richard Pilling.

Andrew Ferguson first appears on the New Zealand electoral rolls for the years 1875/76 as being a householder in Ross Place, Lawrence, Tuapeka. No occupation is given but the house is described as freehold wood and iron house. On the 1880/81 electoral roll Andrew is described as being a journalist with a freehold in Lawrence, Tuapeka, being part of section 6, block iii and sections 1, 2 and 19, block xxvii. 
FERGUSON, Andrew (I64)
 
1926 In order to reconstruct this Edward Spillett within his correct family it was necessary to look at several families with children named Edward who had all been christened within 20 miles of each other within a 20-year span. The possible candidates matching this criteria were

- Edward son of Thomas and Susanna christened at Chartham in 1750
- Edward son of Henry and Ruth christened during 1764 at Stalisfield
- Edward son of Thomas and Anne christened during 1767 at Throwley

Other children named Edward were christened within the same 20-mile vicinity be in much earlier times and so, have been removed from the list of possible candidates particularly when the burial were examined for the three above noted children. Of the three noted above, there really are only two strong contenders, those being the children christened during the 1760s for the burials of these two children help to firmly place each Edward within his correct family group.

At Throwley an Edward was buried on 3 June 1784 aged 17 years. This age when subtracted from the year of of burial produces a birth year of approximately 1767 which fits ideally with the son of Thomas and Anne, also christened at Throwley during 1767.

At Faversham there is a burial of an Edward aged 70 years, residing on Water Lane during August 1834 producing a birth year of approximately 1764. We know this fellow to have married Sophia Greenwood and to have been the father of the Benjamin Spillett who married Sarah Gregory.

It is also interesting to note that in the family of Henry and Ruth, now determined to be the parents of the Edward Spillett at Faversham, there was a child named Benjamin, being a younger brother to Edward. I have not identified a burial or marriage for this particular Benjamin nor for their brother Henry. However, I have identified a reasonable firm prospect for a marriage of their sister, Margaret at Selling during 1774 to a Thomas Acust. Benjamin Acust, a son of Thomas and Margaret, later married one of Edward's daughters, Frances, in essence, he married his cousin. This close relationship between the Acust lines as well as the constant migration of Henry and Ruth and their children from Lenham, to Stalisfield, to Selling and eventually into Faversham, tends to strongly suggest that others along this line of Spilletts would also likely travel to the same destinations to take work and be near relatives.

There is another Thomas Spillett that turns up at Throwley. According to the age on his burial in 1809 of 88 years his birth year is set at approximately 1721. It appears that this particular fellow married twice, first to Susannah Andrew at Stalisfield during 1749 and second to Anne Cork at Otterden in 1764. His first wife was buried at Throwley during 1762 and his second wife was also buried at Throwley during 1768. The children from both marriages were christened in various places - Throwley, Stalisfield, and Ospringe. This elder Thomas may have been the brother of Henry and uncle to this Edward that married Sophia Greenwood. It appears that in Thomas' family the first born son, Thomas also named a child of his Benjamin, which may have been in honour of his cousin or the brother of his uncle's wife, Ruth Lucas. That Thomas may have named his one son Benjamin in error thinking that the name was found along his own direct line. In any event the children of the two Thomases also eventually migrate into Faversham and Preston-next-Faversham. When looking at the various registers and considering all events together, as a group, it is fairly obvious that, even in the face of a lack of solid primary evidence linking all of these families at Throwley and Stalisfield together, there is sufficient preponderance of evidence found in migration patterns, naming patterns, and occupations as well as the Acust kin marriage to make the statement that they are all linked along familial blood lines.

As an aside and a possible resolution of the missing Edward at Chartham, it should be noted that there was a marriage of an Edward Spillett in Barham to a woman named Ann. That couple then turn up in Chartham shortly after their marriage to christen several children. I would tend to be of the opinion that this Edward is the child of the Chartham family and not otherwise associated with the Stalisfield/Throwley group.

1930 In the aftermath of Amy’s death, only a couple of years after her marriage, Emma worried in particular about Elizabeth. Amy was one of the few people Elizabeth could talk to. The Darwins were a chatty bunch and seem to have rather resented people who were ‘too’ quiet. Elizabeth candidly admitted that she found it difficult to open up to Emma herself, much as she might wish to. A remark by Amy’s mother, soon after Bernard’s birth, when she was trying to keep Amy quiet, that ‘now of course Amy would talk’, suggests that Amy may have been similarly withdrawn with her own mother. Both girls were from large families, dominated by boys, with charismatic, even notorious parents. (Amy’s mother, ‘Nain’ Ruck, was a powerful personality, and her father had been committed to an asylum; details of the case, and of his lurid accusations against himself and his wife, had appeared in The Times.) Did each recognise a fellow spirit in the another?

To Amy Ruck 24 February [1872]
9 Devonshire St | Portland Place

Feb 24

My dear Amy

I want you to observe another point for me; so you see that I treat you as my geologist in chief for N. Wales.1

The late Prof. Henslow,2 who was a very accurate man, said that he had often observed on very steep slopes, covered with fine turf, (such as may be found in mountainous countries & no where else) that the surface was marked by little, almost horizontal, sometimes sinuous & bifurcating ledges; or as he called them, wrinkles. These are commonly attributed to sheep walking in nearly horizontal lines along the sloping surface; & they are undoubtedly thus commonly used by the sheep; but Henslow convinced himself that they did not thus originate. Dr Hooker, to whom Henslow made these remarks, has since observed such little ledges on the Himmalayah & Atlas ranges, in parts where there were no sheep & few wild animals—3 Henslow speculated that the earth beneath the turf was in some manner gradually washed away; & he compared the wrinkles on the turf to those on the face of an old man whose face is shrunk. I cannot possibly believe in this notion.

Would you look at any very steep grass covered slopes near you, & if you can find any appearance such as I have described, will you make for me an eye sketch on some approximate scale of the relative appearance & distance of the ledges. I have been speculating whether the ledges can possibly be due to the washing down of the worm castings, & their union into little ridges, on nearly the same principle that when the wind drifts loose sand, it makes numerous little ridges at right angles to the course of the wind.

You must not give yourself much trouble on this subject, but I shd be very much obliged for any observations or remark.

yours very sincerely | Ch. Darwin

If you find anything of the kind observe whether there are worm-castings on the slope.— Also whether the earth is bare & exposed beneath the little ridges or ledges.—

March 15th.

Dear Mr. Darwin

I am very sorry that I am unable to tell you anything about the ledges, as hitherto we have failed to discover any appearance of what you describe— The steep slopes here are perfectly smooth, & it is difficult to imagine any change taking place in them, as worm-casting are rarely to be seen on the hills.2

Thanking you for your letter I am | Your’s sincerely | Amy Ruck

To G. H. Darwin 3 May [1872]1
Down, | Beckenham, Kent.

May 3d

My dear George

Many thanks for the extracts which I will keep, but the subject of music is beyond me.—2

I was thinking the other day of suggesting to you to deliberate over 1 or 2 sentences at the end of your paper on dress, where you speak of the subject being very interesting.3 I remember once putting in some such sentence, & it was objected to me that the Reader was the proper judge of this.

This may be Hypercriticism.—

I am heartily glad that you were not too late for being called to the Bar.—4 Good Heavens what two days work you had—

The Lovers seem supremely happy, & Amy’s eyes are as bright as they can be, & her cheeks rosy.—5 We had a perfectly charming & most cordial letter from Mrs. Ruck today. She approves of my suggestion that the marriage shd. not be immediately. Mr. Ruck’s name is never even mentioned!—6

Yours affectionately | C. Darwin

1 The year is established by the relationship between this letter and the letter from G. H. Darwin, 2 May 1872.
2 See letter from G. H. Darwin, 2 May 1872.
3 CD refers to George’s article ‘Development in dress’, which was published in the September 1872 issue of Macmillan’s Magazine (G. H. Darwin 1872).
4 George was called to the bar on 30 April 1872 (Men-at-the-bar).
5 According to Emma Darwin’s diary (DAR 242), Amy Ruck was at Down from 25 April to 4 May 1872; she was engaged to Francis Darwin.
6 Mary Anne Ruck’s letter has not been found. Lawrence Ruck had spent time in the Moorcroft lunatic asylum, Middlesex; among the evidences offered of his insanity were that he had accused his wife of being a prostitute, and claimed that he himself was haunted by a maidservant who had, according to him, borne him two children (see The Times, 25 August 1858, pp. 5–6, 26 August 1858, p. 7). He was found to be sane by the commissioners of lunacy and successfully sued the proprietor of the asylum for illegally and unnecessarily confining him (British Medical Journal, 2 July 1859, pp. 534–5). Amy and Francis were married on 23 July 1874 (Emma Darwin’s diary (DAR 242)).

From Amy Ruck to Horace Darwin [20 January 1872]1
Pantlludw, | Machynlleth.

Dear Horace

I am afraid I have nothing worth telling about worms. I have been rather in despair this seems such a bad country for them as a “worm casting” is quite a rare sight even on our croquet ground where one might expect to see them, there is very few. Atty2 declares there are a dozen moles to every worm here— However on the top of the Hill there are some steep slopes ploughed about 50 or 60 years ago & we have done some digging & measuring there with these results— the furrows going chiefly crossways—

[DIAG HERE]

We found that the fine soil at the top of the slope was always shallower, being in the furrows at the top 2
1
2
inches, at the bottom 4
1
2
; & that there was always about half an inch difference in the depth of the soil in the ridge & in the furrow, that in the furrow being deepest. We tried a good many times & always found this difference—

It is rare to find furrows running down a slope, but we came across a few in a basin, last ploughed during the Peninsular War—& there they almost disappeared at the bottom—the depth of the furrow between the ridges being at the top 4
1
2
in. at the bottom 1in.3 Papa says, there is a place near his old home Newington called ‘Worm Dale, where they do wonders—4 Dicky & Lenny5 might go & look at it.

My thanks to you for wading through this. | ARR.

5 Richard Matthews Ruck (Amy’s brother), and Leonard Darwin.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From Amy Ruck to Horace Darwin [1 February 1872]1
Will you tell Mr. Darwin that in the case in which the furrows run down the hill & are 4in at the top & 1in at the bottom—the slope is 15o and faces North East. The furrows are about 7 ft apart & on the level ground above are 4in 3
1
2
in deep, although it is difficult to measure these on account of the mole hills—40 paces long.

On another slope of 15o facing S. West the furrows were scarcely perceptible but on level ground at the bottom the same furrows were 3

in deep. The length of the slope was 80 paces— On another short slope of 10o the furrows at the top were 3

2 The measurements were made for CD’s research on the action of worms in turning over soil (see also letter from Amy Ruck to Horace Darwin, [20 January 1872]). CD wanted to ascertain how long the ridges of ploughed land would persist after the land was last ploughed (see Earthworms, p. 292).

1948 Information from Ruth Busbridge (nee Bodeker) received via email during August 07, 2004:
"You would have trouble finding anything about Wilhelm Albert because he changed his name to Osbourne. I met him when I was a very little girl and loved him. He was in the Boer war and took part in some famous battles. He also put his age down and went to France in WW1. "

And in a subsequent email received on August 10, 2004 from Ruth:

"Now, Albert Whilhelm, Known to me as Uncle Bill. When he changed his name I do not know but I have 3 WW2 medels and on the edge of each one is....23188 Pte W Osborne A.S.C."

And in a further email received from Ruth on September 18, 2004:

"Now the medals..... Star 1914-1915 with name and number on the back .....Victory Medal, an angel on front and The Great War For Civilisation 1914-1919 on the back.........British War Medal, man on horseback on front 1914-1918 and the King's head on the back. I don't know if he changed his name when he volunteered for the army as he put his age down ... he was 53 and would never have been sent to the front line in France. There were other medals, apparently he sold the ones he got in the Boar War as he was very poor."
