Memorials of the Sea: My Father - Being Records of the Adventurous Life of the Late William Scoresby, Esq. of Whitby

My Fathers more immediate ancestors, as a short biographical account of him by a friend, states,[A] occupied respectable stations in the middle walks of life, supporting, in each case, unblemished character, and possessing, at times, considerable property; and, in periods rather remote, holding conspicuous stations. In Drakes History of York, the family name, varying in the spelling in a progress through several centuries, repeatedly occurs. But the single line traceable through my Fathers ancestors, now alone appears to exist in Britain. Walter de Scourby was [Pg 4]bayliffe of York, in the year 1312; and in the seventh and ninth years of Edward III., Nicholas de Scorby, it appears, was Member for York. Subsequently, we find, under the date of 1463, Thomas Scawsby, holding the office of Lord Mayor of that city. Some member of the family, after the name assumed its present form, must have given the designation of Scoresby Manor and Scoresby Lodge, to places still known in the neighbourhood of York. At the period, however, of this memoir, the family occupied more humble stations in life, chiefly in the class of yeomen,a class once of much importance in this country, but now, unhappily, so diminished in numbers, under the absorbing influence of extensive properties, as to be scarcely recognised as a designation. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
