This volume calendars the numbers issued to cars and motor cycles in Gloucestershire and Gloucester City (numbers in the AD and FH series) from the start of registration up to December 1913, along with details of their owners and the vehicles themselves. The records presented in this edition (due to be launched in Gloucester in September 2019) make it possible to see in detail how widely car and motor cycle ownership spread in that first decade. As a glance through the entries will show, men and women in all walks of life took advantage of motorised mobility. By the eve of the First World War, over 4,200 registrations had been recorded; practically every hamlet in the county, and many streets in all its towns, boasted at least one car or motor cycle owner. The volume has been designed to be of value to a range of users, including those interested in the demographics of vehicle ownership; local historians; family historians, and of course those with a more technical interest in the vehicles. The editors, Peter Barlow and Martin Boothman, have carefully correlated the original registers with amplifying sources such as street directories and census records, producing mini-biographies for both the vehicles and their owners. While the formal end-point of the records calendared here is 1913, in many cases the registry clerks kept a continuing record of later changes of ownership, including the absence (and sometimes death) of owners on war service. As is customary in this series, the edition is fully indexed. It includes over 30 photos of early vehicles, many reproduced here for the first time." -- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a The Hon. general editor of the series is Dr J D Hodsdon, FSA. 504 $a Includes bibliographical reference (page viii) and index. 650 0 $a Recording and registration $z Gloucestershire. $z Gloucestershire. 650 0 $a Vehicles $z Gloucestershire. $z Gloucestershire. 650 0 $a Automobiles $x Registration and transfer $z Gloucestershire. $z Gloucestershire. 650 7 $a Recording and registration. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01091641 650 7 $a Vehicles. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01164958 651 0 $a Gloucestershire (England) $x Genealogy. 651 0 $a Gloucestershire (England) $x History. 651 7 $a England $z Gloucestershire. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207541 655 7 $a Genealogy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423818 710 2 $a The Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society, $e sponsoring body. 700 1 $a Barlow, Peter, $e editor. 700 1 $a Boothman, Martin. $e editor. 700 1 $a Hodsdon, James D., $e editor. 830 0 $a Gloucestershire record series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317020718.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CDE8A32868DD11EA9C5A9E4D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
