Dorset History Centre - Guide to Sources
Manorial Records
The manor was a mainstay of estate administration from 1066 through to the early twentieth century. The Dorset History Centre holds thousands
of manorial records and has some documents for manors within almost every parish in the county. Most of our manorial documents are to be found
in the collections of private estates such as the Pitt-Rivers and Weld collections, but others may be found in parish and borough collections
The transactions of the manorial courts, held by the lords of the manors, were recorded in the court rolls and books and include:
Judicial and legislative issues for their manors, with names of individuals mentioned in disputes regarding trespass, rights to
pasture, debts and repairs to property
Conveyances of land, with the names of the incoming and outgoing tenants and descriptions of properties. Our earliest records of
this type are from the thirteenth century. They survive in large numbers from the sixteenth through to the twentieth centuries
Lists of jurors and officers of the court
The steward of each manor maintained his own working papers, minutes and notes as well as other administrative records such as:
Rentals (names of tenants and descriptions of their holdings)
Surveys, terriers and maps of the manor
Accounts of rents paid and profits of farms
Customs (traditional by-laws and conventions adhered to on the manor and enforced through the manor court)
Official records of the manor court are in Latin until 1733, steward's papers and administrative records are often in English from the mid-sixteenth
century
Where to find manorial documents:
Manorial documents were mostly kept in private hands until the mid-twentieth century. Some found their way to the National Archives and the
British Library, others were given to the libraries of Oxford and Cambidge Colleges, most remained with the lords of the manor
Today many lords of the manor have deposited their archives in county archives like the Dorset History Centre. many of the records held here can
be searched through the online catalogue access to archives http:www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/a2a/
Others can be found listed in the catalogues in our search-rooms
Additionally, you may wish to consult the Manorial Documents Register which will provide you with locations (e.g. Record Offices) for the manorial
documents of a particular manor or the manors within a parish. Their contact details are:

"Let the People Remember!":
Rhode Island's Dorr Rebellion and
Bay State Politics, 1842-1843
ERIK J. CHAPUT
Editor's Introduction: In 1842 a group of Rhode Island reformers
1842
took up arms in order to remove the state 's archaic form of
government. The origins of the brief, but tumultuous, insurrection
lay deep in Rhode Island history. The results, however, deeply
impacted politics in Massachusetts. Beginning in 1776, all of the
original thirteen colonies, except Connecticut and Rhode Island,
wrote new constitutions and set up representative governments. The
spark that led Providence attorney Thomas Wilson Dorr (1805-
54) to move from a war of words to the field of battle involved
the continued reliance on the 1663 colonial charter as the state 's
governing document. As John Quincy Adams noted in his diary on
May 10, 1842, Dorr had taken steps to "achieve a revolution in
government" because Rhode Island still "adhered" to the charter.
Rhode Island's colonial charter, which was still used as the state's
governing document as late as 1842, contained no amendment
procedure and restricted suffrage to landowners possessing $134
of real estate. Because of the property qualification for voting, most
of the populations of the growing commercial and manufacturing
districts were disenfranchised. Indeed, only 40% of the state 's white
male population was eligible to vote by 1840.

Thomas Dorr was the scion of an old Yankee family. He received
the finest education money could buy in the nineteenth century,
studying at Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire and then
at Harvard College. After graduating from Harvard in 1823, Dorr
studied law under the famed Chancellor James Kent in New York
City, the most prominent state level jurist in the antebellum period.
He was eventually admitted to both the New York and Rhode Island
bar. Dorr entered politics in 1834 when he was elected to the Rhode
Island General Assembly from Providence's Fourth Ward. The young
Dorr championed numerous reform causes. During this period,
Dorr also became connected with Massachusetts abolitionists,
including Wendell Phillips, Edmund Quincy, and the poet John
Greenleaf Whittier. By 1840, however, Dorr had abandoned his once
devout penchant for antislavery and devoted himself completely to
reforming Rhode Island's governing structure. Dorr wished to see
Rhode Island recover its once prominent commitment to democratic
fervor
After several earlier attempts at change were rebuffed, the
working people of Rhode Island organized the Rhode Island
Suffrage Association. Adapting the philosophy of the Declaration
of Independence to their situation, Dorr and his followers called
an extralegal convention and wrote a new constitution that greatly
expanded the suffrage for white males, though the vote was not
extended to African Americans. An overwhelming majority of Rhode
Islanders-almost 14,000 in favor with just 52 opposed-cast
ballots for the "People's Constitution." Dorr was elected governor
under this constitution in April 1842.
Samuel Ward King, Governor of Rhode Island under the charter,
refused to recognize the People 's Constitution. The state Supreme
Court declared the People's Constitution illegal; the General
Assembly declared that any attempt to enforce it would be considered
an act of treason. On the night of May 1842, the Dorrites trained
several cannons on the state arsenal in Providence, where a large
contingent of Rhode Island militia were stationed, including several
of Dorr 's relatives.
Dorr's 's attempt to take over the state government by force
alarmed many. For some, serious constitutional issues were raised,
while others Teared that it might spark an uprising reminiscent of
THE DORR REBELLION AND BAY STATE POLITICS
111
Shay's Rebellion in 1786. As this article dramatically details, the
stakes were also high in neighboring Massachusetts: its geographic
proximity made the "Rhode Island Question" (as it was then called)
anything but abstract. Violence, in the form of incursions of armed
men into Massachusetts in pursuit of the rebels, along with questions
about the role of the Massachusetts state government's material aid
in the suppression of a "democratic" movement in a neighboring
state, shaped the Massachusetts gubernatorial race in the fall of
1842. When the returns were counted that November, the incumbent
Whig, Governor John Davis, was defeated by his Democratic
opponent, Marcus Morton, whose campaign had focused heavily
on the politics surrounding the Rhode Island uprising. Using rich
archival sources, scholar Erik J. Chaput details the history of this
forgotten chapter in Massachusetts history.2
FREE SUFFRAGE is a subject of absorbing interest. The right
of voting is the basis of liberty. It distinguishes the SLAVE
from the FREEMAN. In Rhode Island THREE-FIFTHS of the
men are deprived of this right because they do not own REAL
ESTATE. The people there are struggling to obtain it by a fair
and equal Constitution. The land holders have put it down by
military force, lawless violence and bloodshed. Our Executive
[Massachusetts Governor] John Davis has encouraged and aided
them by allowing them the use of our STATEARMS, by granting
warrants to arrest those who have fled from the oppression of
MARTIAL LAW and by winking at the invasion of our soil, the
midnight burglary of a dwelling, the KID-NAPPING of men and
the SHOOTING DOWN of our citizens in our streets. Can any
friend of FREE SUFFRAGE support Gov. Davis?
Massachusetts Broadside, 1842
Buried deep in the Old Colony Historical Society in Taunton is a
diary kept by Nathaniel Morton. A popular speaker in southeastern
Massachusetts, Morton, a graduate of Brown University, compiled a list
of over fifty possible lecture topics in the back of his diary. While many
dealt with perennial antebellum political questions, such as banks, tariffs,

To: "Fournier, Maureen"
Hi Maureen,
Just returned from our Maine trip. We had a wonderful visit with our 105 year old friend,
Dorris Farrar. We found out from Dorris (and confirmed it with her daughter later) that
George Dorr was Dorris's grandmother's brother on her father's side. The grandmother's
last name was Wood or Woods.
We had dinner that night with Dorris's daughter, Sandra Drake, and her husband, Spencer,
at their home in Freeport. Sandra has done a lot of geneology work for the family and has
a great deal of information. We asked if she would mind if you contacted her and she said
she wouldn't mind at all. You might also be able to meet with Dorris if Sandra is with her at
the time. When I told her there was a book being written, Sandra said she'd be the first to
buy a copy.
I
think she could really help you with this project. She has not only a lot of information, but
many pictures also. Sandra and her husband are wonderful people and you would enjoy
meeting with them Sandra's phone number is: 207-865-3868. Tell her you talked to us
(Joan and John O'Reilly) at the park to help her quickly place who you are.
It was a lucky break for us to meet you by chance and we sincerely hope it works out well
for you. If you need any other assistance that we can help you with, don't hesitate to
contact us.

Attention Mr. Epp:
The scope of the Ebenezer Dorr papers is quite modest, it is contained in one "wallet".
We have enclosed an inventory of the Dorr papers. As you can see, most of the Dorr collection
has also been microfilmed. If you wish, you can make an interlibrary loan request for the
Ebenezer Dorr papers contained on BHC #4 microfilm.

THE DORRS OF RHODE ISLAND.
A writer in the Providence Journal tells
this anecdote of the late Sullivan Dorr: When
his brother, Gov. Dorr, in his little civil war
more than 40 years ago, was mustering his forces
to seize the city of Providence, Sullivan Dorr,
his father. and two uncles were members of the
military company which guarded the arsenal.
One of his comrades said to Sullivan: It can't
be possible that your brother intends to fire on
this building when he knows that you, his father,
and his uncles are all in it?' He looked up
calmly while be said, Ned, I guess you are not
acquainted with the breed. "
