Abstract

This is a selection of the letters to Edmond Williamson, rector of Millbrook from 1740 until his death in 1775 and also rector of Lolworth in Cambridgeshire. Williamson was from a Bedfordshire family. He was educated at Westminster and Trinity College Cambridge. About 300 letters addressed to Edmond Williamson have survived. Of the 182 printed here, about half are in full, the remainder abbreviated. Most of the letters were from Edmond's brother Talbot, who lived in London, and whose property in Husborne Crawley Edmond looked after. Others were from their sister Christian who was married to a retired naval captain; a few from a cousin Edmond Horne; and one or two from other people. The letters tell of family life, house improvements and decoration, food, dress and fashion, marriage, bringing up children, books, estate management, enclosure, travel, highwaymen, poverty, and war.
