In 1074 he went to Normandy and made peace with William. In the struggle between Henry I. and Robert of Normandy, Edgar sided with the latter. He was taken prisoner at the battle of Tinchebrai in. 1106, but was subsequently released. The date of his death is uncertain, but he was certainly alive about 1125. Edgecumbe’s brother, George, 1st earl of Mount Edgecumbe (1721—1795), was a naval officer who saw a great deal of service during the Seven Years’ War. Succeeding to the barony on the 1st baron’s death in 1761 he became an admiral and treasurer of the royal household; he was created Viscount Mount-Edgecumbe in 1781 and earl of Mount-Edgecumbe in 1789. He died on the 4th of February 1795, ~his only son being his successor, Richard, the 2nd earl (1764—.1839), the ancestor of the present earl and the, author of Musical Reminiscences of an Old Amateur. He died on the 26th of September 1839. His son, Ernest Augustus, the 3rd earl (1797—1861), wrote Extracts from Journals kept during the Revolutions at Rome and Palermo. EDGE HILL, an elevated ridge in Warwickshire, England, near the border of Oxfordshire. The north-western face is an abrupt escarpment of the has, and the summit of the ridge is almost level for nearly 2 m., at a height somewhat exceeding 700 ft. The escarpment overlooks a rich lowland watered by streams tributary to the Avon; the gentle eastern slope sends its waters to the Cherwell, and the ridge thus forms part of the divide between the basins of the Severn and the Thames. Edge Hill gave name to the first battle of the Great Rebellion (q.v.), fought on the 23rd of October 1642. Charles I., marching on London from the north-west, was here met by the parliamentary forces under Robert Devereux, earl of Essex. The royalists were posted on the hill while the enemy was in the plain before Kineton. But the rash advice of Prince ‘Rupert determined the king to give up the advantage of position; he descended to ‘the attack, and though Rupert himself was successful against the

James Polk was President and Zachary Taylor would be elected to the Presidency in the fall elections. Land west of the Mississippi was "the west" and the Pacific coast was "the far west." New states were regularly being created out of the land between the Alleghenies and the Mississippi. America had just signed the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo which ended the Mexican War. With peace and the announcement that gold was discovered in California , America returned to its spirit of buoyant optimism. Transportation and communication were slow and cumbersome: waterways still dominated transportation. It is no accident that the women's rights movement took hold in upstate NY - Seneca Falls was on the Erie Canal line, the interstate highway of the day. A few railroad lines had been laid in the east, but the first railroad lines west of the Mississippi were not laid until 1852. Communications were by words spoken in person or written on paper, the first telegraph patent would not be issued for more than 25 years.

Institute of Irish Studies Postgraduate Teaching Home News About Us Undergraduate Teaching ... Links Family and Place: The Big House in Ireland in Fact and Fiction The Big House in Ireland was, for many years, important in both substantive and symbolic terms. Within a predominantly agrarian society, the estate system formed a backdrop for the economy and culture of the island. This course examines the world associated with the Big House along themes of: environment and landscape, history and politics and literature. Castle Ward, Classical view Castle Ward, Gothick view Environment and Landscape The Big House as a symbol of wealth and social status in Ireland is associated pre-eminently with the Anglo-Irish who spent increasingly of their wealth on domestic dwellings from the seventeenth to the nineteenth centuries. The seminars will provide students with an appreciation of the origins of the Big House from the castles of the Anglo-Normans to the great mansions of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries via a selection of case studies of individual families and their houses. The buildings, their architecture and furnishings, and the pleasure gardens and demesnes in which they were placed, will demonstrate how continental styles mingled with the vernacular circumstances of Ireland.

Maria Edgeworth (1767-1849) Though she was born in Oxfordshire, Maria Edgeworth spent most of her lifetime among the gentry of Ireland. She went to a prestigious school in London until she was 14 and then acted as manager of her father's estate in Ireland. With the support of her father, a well-known author and inventor, she began writing horror and romance fiction when she was still at school and then felt more concerned about Irish peasant life, which was the backbone for many of her novels with a moral purpose. Castle Rackrent (1800), that she published anonymously, was her first success. Then, other famous works followed such as Belinda Irish Bulls Leonora Comic Dramas (1817) and Chosen Letters (1831). Despite a marriage proposal from a Swedish count, she never married and died at the age of 82 on May 22, 1849. -Celine Dargere http://www.geocities.com/CollegePark/1380/maria.htm
