Great help for those researching their family tree.
I must have spent hours in researching this material of all those who are listed on the church WW 1 memorial, plus others from Penkhull for whatever reason were not listed.
The list of seventeen pages long is compiled in alphabetical order and under each name is given the age, under which body ther served under with full military details of their record and well as family details where possable and home address.
For those searching family histories this is a welcome addition to assist in your research.
An Act to authorize a Sale to the respective Land Owners of all Tithes and Rectorial Dues belonging to the Rectory of
Stoke-upon-Trent in the County of Stafford; for endowing Two new Churches; and for other Purposes. [21st June 1827.]
An incredable document of thirty opages which includes a large amount of descriptions of Glebe Land belonging to the Rector, which inclome was being designed to help to build a number of new Anglican Churches in its ancient parish. This Act on 1827 in an historians dream come true.
Shortly after Stoke was conveyed with the title of City in 1925, there was a move to create a Potteries Cathedral. It was Rector Crick of St. Peters in Stoke (1924) who expired such enthusiasm for a new parish church in Stoke, to become the Cathedral of the Potteries. It was his wish to lay the foundation stone on October 6th 1930, the centenary of the present parish church dedicated in 1830. The pictures here of the proposed new cathedral were published in the Sentinel in March 1928. Rector Crick was convinced that if our city could catch a vision of the possi¬bilities of our great church, the dream could be realised.
The plans for the cathedral were prepared by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, R.A. The estimated cost was £150,000 (less than the cost of two old, terraced houses in Penkhull today) £50,000 was needed in five years. The Free Churches of the Potteries also offered their support in the campaign.
However, the war followed on following the depression which finally ended any hope of a Potteries Cathedral. The 1834 parish church of Gothic architecture still stands but sadly creates a huge financial burden to every subsequent generation that comes along.
Two pages with pictures of the original design by Sir Giles
