Nottingham 1750 Onwards
« on: Saturday 25 October 08 14:18 BST (UK) »
I recently came across this article whilst looking for information on framework knitters and thought it might be of interest to anyone researching their Nottinghamhire family history.

Hi BG,
It is a good overview of lots of aspects, isn't it. I'm sure it will be very useful to those researching in Nottingham.
 You can see how much Nottingham changed when you look at Badder and Peat's map, 1744, and one of Nottignham a century later - lots of gardens and orchards in the town in 1744.
I'm also researching framework knitters in Nottingham :) Some good records in the Nottinghamshire Archives, and at the Guildhall Library in London.
Good luck with your research, BG.
