Mease
Joseph Mellanby Mease (1827-1928) was the son of Thomas Mease, John's elder brother. Well-educated and well-read, he had lost an arm in an accident in one of his father’s flour mills – according to a newspaper article written in his old age, it was the Hutton mill. Joseph Mease was chief clerk at the chemical works in Jarrow owned by a member of the family. He came to the village in 1858 as manager of a corn mill “on the site on which the police-constable’s house now stands”. Three years later he lost his arm through his sleeve being caught in the machinery.
Joseph Mease’s wife ran a school, assisted by her daughter Jenny. Mrs Mease’s school is mentioned in the Hutton School log book in 1879.

Update 29 Feb 2020: John Mease bought the disused buildings of the Hutton paper mill and installed machinery for a water-powered flax-mill in 1834. For a full account, see Hutton Rudby 1834-1849: the Flax-Spinning Mill by the bridge
For an account of Thomas Mease and the flax-spinning mills of Stokesley, see the series of articles posted on 29 Feb 2020 beginning The linen mills of Stokesley & Hutton Rudby: 1823-1908John Mease’s grandfather Solomon Mease (1731-1801) b Great Ayton, married Jane Humphrey and had 4 children. He was the son of a weaver and trained as a weaver himself. He inherited money and his wife brought him a good portion, but in the words of his son John, his “love for cards and drink was such that he was sold up in a few years”. He joined the army and served as a sergeant in the American Wars. Solomon’s son John Mease (1767-1849) was a grocer in Stokesley. He married Isabella Turnbull, and they had 5 children: Thomas, Isabella, John, Rachel and Mary. His very interesting diary contains many references to the religious problems of the day and to Methodism.

Dale
1872 Post Office Directory: Hutton Rudby: Frederick Dale, F.R.C.S., surgeon, Enterpen
Frederick Dale M.D was the doctor who certified Mr Barlow’s death in 1878
Frederick Dale was born in Yarm, and baptised 13 Feb 1843. His parents were both from Yarm. He took the MRCS England in 1866, then MD at Edinburgh in 1867, where he had studied. In 1871 he was a widower with a housekeeper and groom and lived in Enterpen, but within months he had remarried, to Mary Weatherill [cf Letters to a Miller’s daughter]. The 1873 directories give his address as Layton House.
1877 & 1880 Medical Directories: medical officer for Hutton Rudby District of Stokesley Union
1881: he was succeeded by Dr Melvin as medical officer, and in the census is to be found in Stokesley, once more a widower, but now with three children under the age of 8 [cf Miller’s daughter], and practising from College Square. Directory entries show this address until 1885, adding that he was a certified factory doctor. Bickford’s Hull Medical Directory shows a Dr Frederick Dale, with the same qualifications, at 40 Charlotte Street, Hull, practising as an accoucheur in 1882. In 1886 the Medical Directory shows Dale at Weston super Mare, holding the posts of medical officer to the Great Western Railway, and to an Assurance Society (probably part-time posts) [Dr Geoffrey Stout]

Vicars and Churchwardens of All Saints', Hutton Rudby in the C18 and C19
During the 18th and 19th centuries, eight vicars served All Saints' Church and the parish of Rudby-in-Cleveland.
Churchwardens were elected annually. The list of their names reflects the families that have moved in and out of the village over the years.
1700-35 [1]
Rev Michael Lieth (variously spelt Lyth and Lythe)
1735-67
Rev George Stainthorpe
1767-74
Rev Donald Grant
Grant wrote Two Dissertations on Popish Persecution and Breach of Faith which you can, amazingly, still buy on Amazon.
In this work, he admits that he knows a number of worthy local Roman Catholic families, some of which had lived in the area since the Reformation, but said that he strongly opposed their Faith and their claim to be loyal to the King
(Isn't it pleasant to reflect that All Saints has for some years been part of a successful Local Ecumenical Partnership with the Methodist and Catholic churches?)

Notes on Hutton Rudby's industries in the 19th century
From my research notes for Remarkable, but still True. I can't guarantee accuracy, but I thought it might be of interest to others to see the topics brought together in this way. I have added internet links where I have found them available.
1808: Graves noted that “there are no common, or uninclosed lands, which is a circumstance of some advantage and consequence to husbandry”.
1853-70: The “Golden Age of Farming”
1877: the price of wheat began to drop disastrously
1894: Royal Commission noted that in the Stokesley area wheat growing land had fallen in value by two thirds since 1879, farmers had lost their capital and three had even applied for poor relief
This depression in farming only came to an end with the First War
1801 Census
Skutterskelfe, Sexhow and East Rounton wholly agricultural
Hutton, Rudby and Middleton 20 % agricultural and 80 % manufacturing, trade or handicraft
1808
Graves commented that in the parish the number of people engaged in agriculture and the number engaged in trade or manufactures was nearly equal.
1831-41
Ord noted in 1846 a decrease in population between 1831 and (probably) 1841, and attributes it to “the removal of families to Middlesborough”.
1841-51
the linen industry collapsed.
1841 Census
there were 37 farmers, 2 hinds and 71 agricultural labourers, 62 % men and 38 % women. 9 of the women and 10 of the men were 65 to 85 years old
1851 Census
there were 94 farm labourers and 41 farm servants – 86 labourers were men, and only 5 men and 1 woman were over 65. The young men had been displaced from the linen industry into agriculture.
1861 Census
there were 52 farmers, 111 labourers and 38 speciality farm workers eg ploughmen, milkmaids.
A number of Drainers are listed in the Census – 12 men aged between 24 and 50. One was born in Hutton, one in Stockton, 4 were Yorkshiremen, two of them married to Hutton women, one was born in Lincoln and 5 in Ireland.

Chapter 9. Mr Barlow & his Neighbourhood
Robert may have already visited his brother James in Hampshire, but it is possible that he had never set foot in England before his arrival in early 1831.
He was instituted vicar of Hutton Rudby on 3 January [1], and arrived in the parish a short while later [2], a young and energetic man dressed in the usual clothes of a gentleman – it was not then customary for clergymen to wear clerical dress.
There was no parsonage house at Hutton Rudby.
Mr Grice had lived in Hutton and purchased property of his own in the parish, and Mr Shepherd seems to have rented Hutton House from Lady Amherst. An earlier vicar, George Stainthorpe, had lived in Rudby "in a house which I farm of the Honourable Colonel", George Cary.
Accompanied by his wife and possibly one of his spinster sisters to keep her company, Mr Barlow settled into a comfortable house a little way outside Enterpen. This had previously been known as Suggitt's Grove, and had been the home of Benjamin David Suggitt, the gentlemanly yeoman farmer who had built the Primitive Methodists their chapel. The planting of an avenue of lime trees had given rise to a new and more genteel name, Linden Grove, and it now belonged to Suggitt's nephew, Dr George Merryweather of Whitby. Merryweather, who was the inventor of the Tempest Prognosticator, a device using leeches in jars to forecast bad weather, let the property, with some additional farmland, to Mr Barlow.

Hutton Rudby & parish in 1872
Rudby parish as described in the Post Office Directory of 1872:
RUDBY-IN-CLEVELAND is a township, parish, and small village, 4 miles south-west from Stokesley, and 6 south-east from Yarm, in the west division of Langbaurgh liberty, Stokesley union and county court district, rural deanery of Cleveland, archdeaconry of Cleveland, and diocese of York, situated on the northern bank of the river Leven.
The church of All Saints is an old Gothic stone building in good repair, with a tower, nave, aisle, chancel, porch, and 3 bells; the interior contains a sarcophagus, with the date 1423, to the memory of Robert Wyclyft, rector of this parish; also a monument to the Layton family, dated 1594, and marble tablets to the memory of the Honorable George Cary, son of Lucius Henry Viscount Falkland, who died April 11, 1792, aged 81; also his wife, Isabella Cary, who died the 12th day of April, 1799, aged 81. The register dates from the year 1584.
The living is a vicarage, with Middleton and East Rounton annexed, joint yearly value £270, with residence, in the gift of Viscount Falkland and held by the Rev. Robert Joseph Barlow, M.A of Trinity College, Dublin. The vicarage is a neat modern building, situated on a commanding eminence about a mile from the village, erected by the present incumbent in 1843.
Adjoining to the churchyard, to the west, is a school-house, erected and endowed about the year 1740, at the expense of Charles Bathurst, esq., for the education of boys and girls.
The charities, bequeathed by Lady Amherst, are of £10 yearly value. Viscount Falkland is lord of the manor and chief landowner.

Hallowe'en
Time for tales of the supernatural and the ghostly.
Dragons, to begin with. There was a dragon at Sexhow - and a dragon at Whorl Hill near Swainby.
(Or possibly, the same dragon, with two lairs).
These frightful Worms were a menace and a dread to the people. They suffered terribly from the depredations of the beasts, hoping always to be rescued by some gallant knight in shining armour.
When at last the Worm of Sexhow was slain, the happy villagers carried its pelt to the parish church in Hutton Rudby, and hung it in triumph against the wall, where it remained for many long years ...
And now the tale of Awd Nan of Sexhow - a suitably frightful story for Hallowe'en.
Awd Nan had been the village witch. One night, her ghost appeared to a Sexhow farmer to tell him the whereabouts of some buried treasure. The silver he was to keep for himself, but the gold must be given to Awd Nan's niece, who lived in Stokesley. At the end of a year, the ghost warned him, she would be back to see what he had done. But the foolish man kept both the gold and the silver. At last Awd Nan reappeared to him and jumped up behind him on his horse at Stokesley. Seizing him by the throat, she gripped him tighter and tighter until he fell dead at his own door.
And then there's the White Lady of Skutterskelfe (though she might be just the mist over the beck) and some speak of the Grey Lady of Drumrauch, though little is known about her. I sometimes wonder if they were just ways of terrifying the young from straying far from the village.
