John Stubbs' diaries (1853-60): names beginning R

These are my original working notes, made quite a few years ago in the days before broadband and easy access to census records etc.  I have done a certain amount of extra work in getting them ready to post here, so some of the entries are now up-to-date.

They include quotations from George Whitehead's Journals, ed. Helier Hibbs, which have been an invaluable resource for which I am very grateful. 

As with the A-Z of Hutton Rudby people, my accuracy is NOT guaranteed!  And I'm afraid they are not quite in alphabetical order.

Witnesses her half-sister’s marriage, 14 Jan 1858

TDHS notes:
She was born 24 Mar 1843.  Married James Sedgwick, surgeon of Boroughbridge, 14 Feb 1863, and died 3 Jun 1892.  She had three children:  Ethel Mary, b 5 Feb 1864; Harold James, b 12 Nov 1865, solicitor; and Hubert, b 28 Sep 1869, surgeon.

Leeds Times, 21 February 1863
On Saturday, at St Thomas's Church, Portman-square, London, by the Rev W Richardson, incumbent of Stainforth, Yorkshire, James Sedgwick, Esq., of Boroughbridge to Mary, younger daughter of the late Thomas Redmayne, Esq., of Taitlands, Settle

James and Mary stayed in Boroughbridge where James practised as a doctor.  Mary James, as she was known to distinguish her from her husband’s sister, and her family were naturally a part of the family social circle.  “Alice is at a juvenile party at James’s we had them all last night and a most rackety eveng we had but they were all most good and happy  only the Sedgwicks Capes and little Price”, wrote Mary on 13 Jan 1872.  “Mary James … poor boy goes on nicely but it is pitiable to see him with his arm in a sling”, she wrote in February, and a month later  “Mary James is a very good neighbor [sic] and much interested in you and the baby   little [Hubert?] took a fancy to bringing me a bunch of violets almost every day”. When Alice was due to go to Cambridge for the boat races that May, her mother wrote, “Mary James travels with her to Hichen and the two children on their way to London  that will be very nice for them all”.

James was a busy local doctor:  “James is sadly harassed there is so much sickness around us in severe colds” wrote Mary in 1872.  The letters record their difficulty in getting away on holiday that year.  “Mary James and James are wishing to go up the Rhine if they can get off about the 19th” wrote Mary on 10 August, but a week later she told John, “James and Mary hope to go into Ireland for a fortnight if they can get off next Monday.”  The letters do not reveal whether they managed to get there or not.
Mary seems to have been a sociable woman:  “Mary and James are very well   we see them almost every day”, wrote Mary in October 1872, and some days later, “I was at James’s on Saturday eveng where we had a beautiful Pheasant and Mary came to tea with me yesterday”.  In November she wrote, “Mary James was going to a ball at Kirby Lonsdale next week to chaperone Mrs Fosters party  She is much enjoying the prospect” and “Mary James has got home looking rather flat and dull after all the gaiety of the ball which she thoroughly enjoyed and staid ten days with the Fosters”.  The Fosters seem to have been relations of the Redmaynes.  “We have had rather a gay week.  Monday, Jane Henry and Alice dined at James’s only themselves and Alice Foster … Thursday we were all at Uncles to a meat tea  the Sedgwicks Joes and ourselves  they acted charades, James and Henry were admirable performers”, Mary wrote in January 1874. 
 
Mary was an amateur singer and not afraid to perform in public.  She was one of the singers at an amateur concert in Knaresborough in 1874.  She may also have been fond of tennis, as in the early 1880s the Jameses had  a lawn tennis court at their house, where Alice went to play.

There are references to Mary being unwell on occasion, but it must have been a terrible shock when this sociable, kind, active neighbour died “of apoplexy” “very suddenly at Victoria Station London” on Whit Sunday night, 4 June 1892 at the age of about 50. 
 
James was a West Riding JP, and was in partnership with Henry Ingledew Daggett who married Lizzy Stubbs’ daughter Mary Dunhill.  In early January 1900 James and his daughter Ethel, then 36, left Boroughbridge having sold Ladywell House to Dr Daggett  – and moved to London
