Eyam, Derbyshire
Glover's History, Gazetteer, and Directory of the County of Derby, 1829
Transcription by Rosemary Lockie, © Copyright 2002
Materials collected by Stephen Glover in the early 19th century towards a
History and Directory of Derbyshire were published in 1829 in 3 volumes. The Directory -
“accurately taken during the years 1827, '8, and '9, by Stephen Glover” -
was published first, when according to its introduction, the remaining material was
“still in the press”. Its subsequent publication resulted in two volumes.
Volume I contains a History of the county as a whole; and Volume II
describes individual Towns and Villages.
This extract is from the Directory.

Notes
[1] |
At the end of the book it explains:-
“The names distinguished with F are for the most part
Freeholders returned Into the County office, as being
liable to serve on Juries. This forms only a portion
of the Freeholders of the County, as it does not include
the Clergy, Professions, and Others, who are exempt.
Those distinguished by C are Copyholders.” |
