Raymond Cassidy papers for BA:
Family and community relationships
This thesis and group of essays records
Ray's own story as a wartime evacuee, and his family's story in London
and in Upshire.
The works cover such subjects as Copped Hall
servants, Changes in Household Composition in an Outer London Suburban
Street, 1939-1947, and Handel and his inheritance. This last
subject was selected as a contrast to the general theme of social
poverty.
"The work on his [Ray's] family history and
on the communities in which he grew up might become a model for such
studies... Ray has shown how much can be achieved with quite unpromising
archival material." - from the Editor's Preface.
An Introduction also provides much
biographical background on Ray, who was an active member of WAHS,
Upshire Village Preservation Society, the Friends of Copped Hall, and
other philanthropic bodies.
Numerous tables, maps,
diagrams, family trees, family photos, etc.
