Devon Biographical Dictionary. Introduction

Exeter Working Papers in British Book Trade History; 7
The Devon book trades: a biographical dictionary. Introduction

This dictionary forms part of a two-part project aiming to chart the development of the book trade In Devon. The other part is a chronological checklist of Devon imprints. The period to 1800 was published as Exeter working paper no. 6 in 1989. The closing date of the biographical aspect of the project is the middle of the nineteenth century although a certain amount of more recent material has been Incorporated where readily available in the sources consulted. Material was gathered intermittently over a period of about twelve years but coverage is still by no means complete. A higher proportion of sources have been searched for Exeter, and Plymouth is under-represented. Additional information gleaned from local records will be welcomed for addition to the file.

Information has been contributed by too many indivduals for me to provide an exhaustive list. Thanks are due in particular to the Devon Record Office, especially Michael Dickinson and the late Trevor Falla who passed an many references which they discovered in course of listing documents. Richard Davin, a frequent user of Devon Record Office, also drew my attention to many items. Victcor Berch of Brandeis University passed me his extracts from national newspapers and periodicals of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries and A.J.Clamp of Plymouth made available his card index of Devon printers and booksellers. Peter Christie of Bideford was of great assistance to me in forwarding details on the north of the county. As study leave was not available, such assistance has proved invaluable. Once again my family must be thanked for their patience over the years. Both parts of the project are now held as html files and will be updated as new information becomes available. The indexes were compiled with the assistance of d-Base software using a subset of the fields employed in the record structure of the British Book Trade Index project, at that time directed by the late Professor Peter Isaac at Newcastle upon Tyne. The 2,800 records In this present listing were made avaible to to the national BBTI database. Entries contain the following information where ascertained:

SURNAME, Forenames. Or name of institution.

Trades. These do not necessarily reflect the full range of activities of the individual concerned.

Addresses. With dates of occupancy. Dates followed by "d" indicate information from directories, "1785p" indicates Pendred's directory of 1785 and "1855h" Hodson's directory of 1855.

Date of birth. With place of birth and parentage where known. Marriage(s). With name and parentage of spouse where known.

Children. With dates of birth or baptism where known, and notes of other relatives in the book trades.

Date of death. Where known, or notes of probate or settling of estate.

Other biographical details. E.g. apprenticeship, freedom, partnerships, bankruptcies, predecessors and successors in business.

Imprints. References give the date of publication followed by the name of the author or the first word of anonymous titles. This should normally be sufficient to identify titles in Books with Devon Imprints or other Devon bibliographies and catalogues. In addition references are given to individual topographical prints listed in the catalogue by J. V. Somers Cocks.
