SUMMARY:Presentation to Howden Civic Society
DESCRIPTION:Presentation: Goole in 1926 – Celebrating the first 100 years. \nLooking back over one hundred years\, we explore what was happening in and around Goole in 1926\, the year of the centenary of the opening of the town and docks in 1826. Despite the economic depression hitting so many of the townspeople hard\, a fabulous celebration of the 100th birthday was organised and delivered with admirable enthusiasm as can be seen from the many surviving photographs. Through newspaper reports\, we examine the combined efforts of the many committees as they prepared to deliver a spectacle which would be reported as a tremendous success across the country.  \n

SUMMARY:Presentation to the Society of Genealogists
DESCRIPTION:Online Presentation: Yorkshire’s Watermen \nThe transportation of goods across pre motorway Yorkshire relied heavily on the watermen\, often accompanied by their families\, who piloted their well laden keels along the numerous canals and rivers of the county. David Scrimgeour shares his original research examining the extant Canal Boat Registers to see what extra insight they offer the family historian\, illustrated with real examples from watermen families across the county. \n

SUMMARY:Presentation to Pontefract and District Family History Society
DESCRIPTION:Presentation: Life and Death on Yorkshire’s Waterways \nDrawing on his extensive research into 19th and early 20th century Yorkshire watermen families\, David Scrimgeour will share what he has learned about the BMD facts so important to family historians. Illustrated with examples peculiar to life on the waterways this is not a presentation for the faint hearted. The happy events of births and marriages are outweighed by the many unnatural deaths associated with what was a very\, very hazardous occupation for the watermen and their families.
