Reader Comments for Duffield Bank
Would anyone know anything about this family, or be interested in knowing the contents of this letter.
Best wishes from Australia
I would be very interested in looking at the contents of the letter. I live on Duffield Bank and I am looking into the history.
Best regards from Derbyshire
This is the reply
I have put this whole letter, with images etc, up on our website, so if you click on this link, it will take you directly to the letter
http://www.earsathome.com/letters/Previctorian/gifford.html
In the meantime, this will give you an idea of the letter contents,
“Letters from the Past
From Mr Attenburey in Hudson, New York State
to Mr Gifford, Duffield Bank near Derby, 1828 ”
This letter is an interesting one with family information etc of what was happening to them in Hudson, New York State in 1828, and how the writer missed letters from home. The addresses would suggest that the writer emigrated to America and named his house after their home in England.
So now to the contents of the letter. It was written on three sides of the thin cream coloured paper which has the watermark JOHN BUTLER but no year. The ink has faded over the years and some words are hard to decipher.
Duffield Bank Near Hudson 1828 October 4th
My Dearest Cousin,
I have been anxiously awaiting a letter from you all this summer or I should have written before it is so very long since I heard from you. I have written many times but have received no answer, it is more than two years since I had a letter from you my dear cousin. What can be the reason I do not hear. If you are ill surely someone would have informed us of it. I find my brother has not heard either, We are very anxious about you. We both wrote to inform you of the death of sister Bakewell last June near a year since which I suppose must have been received We have never known a letter to miscarry between Liverpool and New York. Mir Wright receives letters from there frequently and Mrs Gordon’s friends hear from her and you have probably heard she had a little son which I am told is a source of great pleasure to both father and mother. I hope Ann will now enjoy better health than she has done since her marriage. My brother had some thought of going to England this Fall but I don’t know for what reason he seems to have given it up. I should have rejoiced if he had gone as I know it would have given you pleasure to see him and I should have heard particularly of you. I am happy to say his health is better than it has been for some time. I have not seen him since last Autumn but I hear from him frequently.

He also owned land in the area.
this is a very interesting area as it was the birthplace of the industrial revolution as the River Derwent was the first place to use water power for manufacturing in Mill buildings. Arkwrights Mill at Cromford was revolutionary. It is also a very picturesque area. A number of people emigrated to America connected with the cotton mills.
I am attaching a link to the World Heritage Site. Duffield bank lies on the very southern end of the Strutts estates who were large Mill owners around Belper. The Bank has a long history as the stone for Duffield Castle was quarried here and much of the stone for one of the mills. There are also great views from across the Derwent.
This link may be interesting to you. You can see Giffords name on one of the maps on the far right.

I am trying to establish links to the World Heritage Site for people who lived on Duffield Bank. Many were well to do people who owned land and possibly had connections with setting up the Mills. The earlier settlement is likely to be very old as it might have been a croft set up at the time of quarrying for the castle which means it is medieval.
Again, thanks for showing the letter.
Mary

Swing Swang Lane
28th April 2024
I am trying to find out why the lane is named Swing Swang?
It has been known known this since at least 1905 when hedge making contents used to be held here.
Swing Swang is often used to describe a fairground ride. I remember Swing Boats. Were they a bit like this or is Swing Swang another name for swings?
Swing Swangs are also mentioned in connection to orchards. Or were orchards just good places to have swings?
