BARNES,Joseph MS
The Joseph Barn's MS is in the Cumbria Record Office, Carlisle.Ref.DX 74/2.Description.-The Violin Tutor c1786-95. We have worked on photocopies made from Microfilm No. JAC:866. It is part of the Grainger family papers, of "Holm Cultram", Abbeytown,on the north coast of Cumbria and a little to the west of Carlisle. Holm Cultram Abbey was dissolved by HenryVIII. The book is 9" tall by 7" wide, with hard covers of a material not evident from our photocopy. It appears to have hand stitched leaves, not all quite the same size. Where there is a page of music there are eight hand-drawn staves to the page. Inside the front cover there is a drawing of a floral pattern such as would have been used for an embroidered waistcoat of the 18thC "Tailor of Gloucester" type.
