Talk:Henry Hoare (1807–1866)

Barton Shuttleworth
The details in sources appear confused. The Memoir has numerous slips: here "Barten" for "Barton", it appears. Vicars of Rochdale is a gossipy source. It looks like he may be the grandson of the one in s:Alumni Oxonienses: the Members of the University of Oxford, 1715-1886/Shuttleworth, Barton.

Thomas Drake turns up in William Robert Hay, as a clerical hardliner of the 1790s. The Littleborough living went to John Rutter (CCEd). There may be more to this story, but interesting anyway for Hoare connections to the north-west.

This Barton Shuttleworth III may well be the one who died in 1838. Charles Matthews (talk) 08:09, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Barton Shuttleworth II seems to have been a schoolmaster in 1773, a subscriber to Tim Bobbin, the same year as he went to Langho as curate. p. 108 note 8. Charles Matthews (talk) 08:18, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

In 1766, directory listing for Liverpool, Barton Shuttleworth schoolmaster has address Williamson Square. Charles Matthews (talk) 09:19, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Transactions of the Historic Society of Lancashire and Cheshire (1952) says "He had for a short time been headmaster of Witton Free Grammar School, Cheshire." Charles Matthews (talk) 09:29, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Dates 1708-1772 for the schoolmaster, "whom doubtless Bartholomew Booth knew well", in The Academies of the Reverend Bartholomew Booth in Georgian England and Revolutionary America at p. 52. He was uncle of Robinson Shuttleworth: the Robinson Shuttleworth of Preston who was High Sheriff of Lancashire in 1795, and who married Diana Starkie. Charles Matthews (talk) 09:37, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

There is a memorial tablet at Laughton (which is where Barton Shuttleworth I was vicar on his death in 1754, per CCed) with date 1792, by William Firmadge, to Rev. Barton Shuttleworth, who may be II. Or there may only be two of them. Charles Matthews (talk) 08:29, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

A book on the Morden parish registers makes it clear that Barton Shuttleworth who died 1838, and was buried near the family vault for Henry Hoare of Mitcham and George Matthew Hoare, was a family friend who was born in the 1760s. Age of death 71 on that page, 73 here (bother). This report puts his "preferment" as Mitcham. Charles Matthews (talk) 08:43, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

says Barton Shuttleworth (assume II) was licensed to Littleborough in 1770, and died 1793; he was son of Ralph Shuttleworth. Littleborough is a fair way south of Langho. Charles Matthews (talk) 09:12, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Barton Shuttleworth I
Given that the Balliol graduate in s:Alumni Oxonienses: the Members of the University of Oxford, 1715-1886/Shuttleworth, Barton, aged 19 in 1726 and so born 1707 or 1708, is probably the schoolmaster 1708-1772. matches him to the priest ordained 1734, curate at Winwick, Cheshire, rector at Laughton, Leicestershire 1742 to 1754. CCEd may be wrong about the match, or the death date. Or Academies of the Reverend Bartholomew Booth may have something astray. Charles Matthews (talk) 09:46, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

The ACAD entry contradicts, tentatively, with a suggestion about the Winton School for Barton Shuttleworth II (died 1793). Charles Matthews (talk) 10:49, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
