as you may be aware over the last 3 years we have been trying to prevent the forced sale and dispersion of the Wedgwood Collection - we all agree that to do this would be a travesty. The Collection contains 80,000 works of art, ceramics, manuscripts, and letters, pattern books and photographs covering the 250 year history of Wedgwood; it is a unique archive of British politics, society, science and art. The archive represents priceless evidence of one company's contribution to a world of fast paced commercial innovation, scientific discovery, intellectual enlightenment and turbulent social history.<br> <br> <em>"The Wedgwood Museum's Collection is a window into the Wedgwood family's business and private life set within the context of the Industrial Revolution. It is, quite simply, one of the most extraordinary and rare Collections of its type in the UK</em>"<br> <br> Carole Souter, Chief Executive of the Heritage Lottery Fund <br> <br> <strong>The Collection must be saved and must remain in North Staffordshire.</strong><br> <br> We are delighted to say that good news is here, and we finally have a chance to save the Collection – forever. A steering group, led by the Art Fund with members including the Administrator, Tristram Hunt MP, Rt. Hon. Ed Vaizey, MP Minister for Culture, Alison Wedgwood, Gaye Blake Roberts, the Heritage Lottery Fund and the Arts Council have been working behind the scenes for a number of years, and in recent months, after exploring all options the Art Fund have agreed to raise the funds needed to buy the Collection – thereby safeguarding it in perpetuity. The Art Fund is leading the campaign and will buy the Collection and this will then be gifted to the V&A museum. The V&A has the curatorial, legal and business expertise and a remit to the protect the national collection of art and design and so it makes sense for them to own the collection – BUT always with the intention that it remains on display in Staffordshire at the existing Barlaston site. This solution safeguards the Collection in perpetuity and keeps it on display in the local area where it was created and evolved over 250 years.<br> <br> We need <strong>£15.75m</strong> to do so, and <strong><u>have already raised over £13m</u></strong> – a major achievement.<br> <br> However, today marks the beginning of the public appeal to raise the remaining <strong><u>£2.74m</u></strong> needed by 30 November in order to safeguard it.<br> <br> We therefore are asking any keen supporters to contribute something to ensure we can end the uncertainty and ensure the Collection is saved forever. The good news is any donation by members of the public will be matched by a private trust and so we are optimistic that we can raise the £2.74 million by the deadline.<br> <br> The Wedgwood family would like to offer their heart felt gratitude for your expressions of support, it has been a tumultuous few years and we feel that finally there is light at the end of the tunnel. <br> <br> We have ceded the Save Wedgwood web-site to the Art Fund to run the campaign – therefore if you would like to stay up to date about the campaign, please e-mail <a style="color:rgb(109,198,221);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline;word-wrap:break-word" href="mailto:members@artfund.org?subject=Re:%20Wedgwood%20Collection%20Campaign" target="_blank">members@artfund.org</a> and the Art Fund will add you to their new mailing list.<br> <br> Please support this incredibly important campaign by donating – either by phone, text, online or by post – and by spreading the word.<br> <br> The new <a style="color:rgb(109,198,221);font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline;word-wrap:break-word" href="http://savewedgwood.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c55a3aa3dd15bdce8913fe09f&id=a264bc5f72&e=803c8fc757" target="_blank">www.savewedgwood.org</a> website is now the official fundraising platform – please consider going on line today and make a donation, call 0844 415 4100 or Text WEDGWOOD to 70800 and donate £10<br> <br> Thank you for all your interest and support over the years.

<br>
<br>Thanks to you (and a crash course in Ebay bidding + my credit card), I am
<br>now the very proud and happy owner of a copy of the Wedgwood Pedigrees.
<br>My grandfather and his 5 children (including my father) appear in page 251.
<br>Last year my Aunt (Lucy Beryl, known as Berrie)'s grandson got into
<br>financial difficulties and the bank foreclosed on Burslem Station.
<br>However, the property was then bought out of receivership by my Aunt Katie
<br>Edwina (known as Zeenie)'s great granddaughter and her husband, who already
<br>owned property in the Muttaburra District.
<br>
<br>The family connection continued, and they are cleaning up the graves of my
<br>grandfather and grandmother, which are both on the Station - grandfather
<br>because floods prevented his body being taken to Muttaburra for burial, and
<br>grandmother as she wanted to be buried with him.
<br>
<br>Thanks so much.
<br>
<br>David Wedgwood

<span xmlns=""><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The <a href="http://www.thisisstaffordshire.co.uk/news/Slice-Potteries-history-goes-hammer-U-S/article-2513448-detail/article.html"><em>Staffordshire Sentinel</em></a> to day reports on the sale by auction (27<sup>th</sup> August 2010) of a Family Bible formerly owned by the Wedgwood and Wood Families of Burslem:<br />
</span><br />
</span><br />
<span xmlns=""><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;"><br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">HISTORIANS are hoping a Bible linked to two pottery dynasties will be brought back home to Stoke-upon-Trent. A Wedgwood family Bible dating back to 1630 is going up for auction in America this month after being discovered in an attic in Maine. It is believed the Bible has been owned by two important Burslem potters – Dr Thomas Wedgwood and Enoch Wood – before ending up on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px;">The book includes handwritten pages by Mr Wood and inscriptions relating to the Wedgwood family.</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;"><br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">The pieces written by Mr Wood describe how he was inspired to become a potter, who he hired at his pottery business and what he paid them and detailed descriptions of some of his most prized work.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">There is also a poignant 16-page tribute written by Mr Wood's son – Enoch Wood Junior – after his father's death.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;"><br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">The Bible is being sold by Gould Auctions, based in Smithfield, Maine, on Saturday, August 28.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">Miranda Goodby….collections officer in ceramics at The <a href="http://www.thisisstaffordshire.co.uk/topics/place/potteriesmuseum"><span style="color: #4457a5; text-decoration: underline;">Potteries Museum</span></a> and <a href="http://www.thisisstaffordshire.co.uk/topics/place/artgallery"><span style="color: #4457a5; text-decoration: underline;">Art Gallery</span></a> in Hanley, said: "The real interest from a local history point of view is that the Bible was written in by Enoch Wood. Without him, we would know a whole lot less about life in 18th century Burslem.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">"He was known as the Father of the Potteries when he died and he was Stoke-on-Trent's first historian. He was proud of Burslem and Stoke-on-Trent. He really wanted people to understand the changes he had seen in his lifetime.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;"><br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">He would have been delighted at the thought of his Bible coming to light and there being so much interest in it."<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">She said Mr Wood was an avid collector of pottery and his pieces formed what is now <a href="http://www.thisisstaffordshire.co.uk/topics/place/thepotteriesmuseum"><span style="color: #4457a5; text-decoration: underline;">the Potteries Museum</span></a>.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">He also loved to chronicle what was happening in the world and would often write notes in books and even bury time capsules to let future generations know about the past.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">Ms Goodby said: "It is no surprise to me whatsoever that he had written in a Bible. He wanted to record what he had seen. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px;">He saved books and rebound them because they had belonged to people he was interested in, which is exactly what he did with this Bible."</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">Mr Wood bought the Bible at an auction in 1820 and had it rebound. It is thought the book was taken to America by one of Mr Wood's descendants after his death in 1840.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">It is signed by Dr Thomas Wedgwood, who owned a pottery firm in Burslem and was a distant relative of Josiah Wedgwood, who went on to found the world's greatest ceramics company.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">Ms Goodby said: "Enoch Wood's father apprenticed for Dr Thomas Wedgwood in the 1730s and was a very successful potter. There are about five branches of the Wedgwood family and if you go back to the 1620s, they are all from one family. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px;">"I don't think Dr Thomas Wedgwood was actually a doctor but there were so many Thomas Wedgwoods in Burslem, a lot of them had nicknames."</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">Burslem historian Fred Hughes said: "It is a very important piece of memorabilia. It certainly has connections with the family of Josiah Wedgwood. And without Enoch Wood, we might not have a Burslem. He was a leading law-maker as well as a great model maker.<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;"><br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">It would be a great addition to the Enoch Wood collection, which is a valuable collection held at the Potteries Museum and at the city archive."<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px;">Mr Hughes said: "The Bible was a family treasure but there is nothing special about the book itself – it is the inscriptions which are more valuable. The inscriptions are absolutely crucial to the history of the early development of the pottery industry."</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">Mr Hughes said he would like to see the Bible end up in the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery in Hanley so it could be studied and put on public display. He said: "The city council already has a massive collection of Enoch Wood papers – that Bible would be a welcome addition to the collection."<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">Councillor Hazel Lyth, Stoke-on-Trent City Council's cabinet member for adult social care, sport, leisure and culture, said: "We are aware of the auction taking place and are interested in the artefact because of the historical and cultural significance it has for the city."<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">Alison Wedgwood whose husband Tom is a direct descendant of Josiah Wedgwood, said the Wedgwood family would love the Bible to return to Stoke-on-Trent. She said: "Its natural home is Stoke-on-Trent. It would be fascinating to see it and we would like to see it brought back to the city. I am very curious to see what it looks like and what notes are in there. It would be a shame if it was bought by a private collector in America."<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt;">Auctioneer Timothy Gould, of Gould Auctions, described the inscriptions by Enoch Wood as "remarkable and spectacular". He added: "The Bible and manuscripts have been inspected and authenticated by an internationally-known ephemera expert."<br />
</span></div><div style="margin-left: 36pt;"><br />
</div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I hope it can be bought for the City, or it would be a great addition to the Wedgwood family archives at the Wedgwood Museum. <br />

<span xmlns="">From <a href="http://www.thisisbusiness-staffordshire.co.uk/news/Family-hope-save-museum-s-treasures/article-2456747-detail/article.html">The Staffordshire Sentinel</a>: Tuesday 27<sup>th</sup> July 2010<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #040404; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;">MEMBERS of the Wedgwood family have launched a campaign to protect the Wedgwood Museum's collection from being broken up and sold off. Support for the attraction has come from the UK and across the world.<br />
</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #040404; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;">The museum is under threat after being saddled with a £134 million pension fund deficit claim from the Wedgwood Group Pension Plan. It was thought the company scheme would be taken over by the Pension Protection Fund (PPF) following the collapse of Wedgwood and sister firm Royal Doulton last year. But the PPF could not legally accept the scheme as there was still a surviving solvent organisation with fund members connected to it – the Wedgwood Museum in Barlaston.<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #040404; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #040404; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;">Lawyers for the museum argue its treasures cannot be sold off because they are protected by "permanent endowment" status, but it will be months before a judge makes the final decision. Tom Wedgwood …a direct descendant of company founder Josiah, said: "The upcoming court case is a potential tragedy for all of us in North Staffordshire. We have had enough bad news, with closures and job losses in the pottery industry. "I don't understand how such a ludicrous case has arisen and I urge common sense to prevail. Why would anyone donate money or family possessions to trusts if the Government can introduce new legislation that means they are sold off? Now we are in a ludicrous position when we might have to try to raise funds to buy back and re-donate all the pieces which were originally donated by Wedgwood ancestors and cousins and previous generations of factory managers."<br />
</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #040404; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;">The family has launched a<a href="http://www.savewedgwood.org/"> website</a> and Facebook profile<a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=132460210098832&ref=search"> SaveWedgwoodMuseum</a> to spearhead the campaign.<br />
</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #040404; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;">Dr Alan Wedgwood, head of the Wedgwood family, said: "When members of the Wedgwood family donated parts of their personal collections to the museum trust over the course of the last two centuries, this was done as an act of social philanthropy, in the belief the collection would be preserved for all future generations. New government legislation should not be introduced which can cause the subsequent break up and sale of this historic collection."<br />
</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #040404; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;">The campaign team says auction house Christie's has valued the collection at £20 million, meaning the PPF would still have to find the bulk of the £134 million shortfall. And supporters believe it is unfair to hold the museum to account because five out of 7,000 Wedgwood Group pension fund members work for it. <br />

<span xmlns=""><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Back in March I wrote a piece congratulating <a href="http://wedgwoodfamily.blogspot.com/2010/03/new-doctor-darwin-congratulations-emma_27.html"><strong>Dr Emma Darwin</strong></a>, best-selling and award-winning authoress on the achievement of her Doctorate – following in a grand family tradition. Soon after, Emma, who has just written a short story for <a href="http://emmadarwin.typepad.com/thisitchofwriting/writing-for-radio/">broadcast on BBC Radio 4</a>, e-mailed to alert me to the fact that, in her own generation, she was just but the latest. Her sister Carola achieved her Ph.D. in Musicology last Autumn whilst their eldest sister Sophia was awarded her Ph.D. in Mathematics some time ago.<br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Dr Sophia Darwin</strong> is a member of the Department of Mathematical Sciences at my <em>alma mater </em>Durham University.<br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Dr Carola Darwin</strong> is a celebrated English soprano singer, more details <a href="http://wikibin.org/articles/carola-darwin-3.html">here</a> and <a href="http://wikibin.org/articles/carola-darwin-3.html">here</a>. <br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">I hereby suggest that a collective noun for Doctors could be "A Darwin of Doctors."</span></span>John Wedgwood Poundhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17745739246808492151noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358119754784488213.post-2410810564037205272010-06-29T09:43:00.001+00:002010-08-11T21:05:09.837+00:00FW: The Burke's Peerage & Gentry CollectionThe Burke's Peerage & Gentry Collection<br />
