Biography on James Edwin Duerden
And in French
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Edwin_Duerden
this is the translation:
James Edwin Duerden is a zoologist British, born in 1869 in Burnley, Lancashire and died on September 4, 1937 with Leeds. He makes his studies with the Royal College of Science of London of 1885 to 1889 when he becomes associated. In 1893, he is demonstrator in zoology and paleontology with the Royal College of Science of Ireland. Duerden then starts to work on the bryozoaires and the hydrozoaires present in the area. In 1895, it leaves for Jamaica to occupy there the station of conservation of the natural history museum. It is interested then in fauna of the caves and the marine animal-life. It continues its studies at the university Johns Hopkins where it obtains his Master of Sciences and its pH. D. in 1900. It leaves then to the university North Carolina where he is a professor of biology in 1902 and where he continues his research begun in Jamaica on the corals. Since 1903, he is a professor attending in zoology at the university of Michigan Ann Arbor. In 1905, it occupies the function of professor in zoology at the Rhodos university in Grahamstown in South Africa. Duerden then starts to study the ostriches and their feathers in order to improve their production. The First World War putting a term at the marketing of the feathers of ostrich, Duerden turns then to the production of wool, in particular in order to improve the production of wool merino.

Burnley, January 2008
Former Cotton Queen dies at 85
An original figure from historic Burnley confectioners Duerden Sweets has died.
Mrs. Irene Duerden married founder Douglas Duerden in 1943 and helped out at the factory which produced the popular sweets sold around the country.
The remarkable woman was also the last Burnley Cotton Queen to ever be crowned in 1939.
Mother of Trevor Duerden, the current managing director of Harle Syke based Duerden Sweets, she lived for most of her life in Fence and also has ties to Nelson and Cliviger. The great-grandmother, who died aged 85 at the Windsor Rest Home, Padiham worked as a weaver on leaving school, but devoted much of her time to being a mother and home maker.
Born in Cliviger, Mrs. Duerden (nee Harrison) was the elder of two sisters. She began married life in Albert Street, Brierfield, and then, in 1957, moved to Wheatley Lane Road, Fence, where she lived for almost 50 years. Mr. Duerden died in 1977.
Mrs Duerden was very fond of playing golf and was lady captain of Nelson Golf Club in 1978.
She also liked to travel abroad and, as she was very family-minded, took pleasure visiting Trevor and his family in Sweden when he lived for a time.
Devoted son Trevor said she was “houseproud and very independent” until she became ill with dementia.
She also leaves grandchildren Neils (who runs Duerden Sweets with his father), Anna-Stina and Kaisa, great-granddaughter Alva, sister Yvonne and good friends Margaret Fell and Joan Stansfield.
Family and friends will be attending her funeral at Burnley Crematorium at 11-20 a.m. on Monday.

I read this in the paper, is Irene connected to your Duerdens Kris?

No, but Janice sent it to me because she thought it was. I added it for the Harle Syke connection.

Burnley Express and News, Wednesday, January 7, 1942.
BRIERCLIFFE.
An inquest was held at Brierfield Town Hall last Monday on Grace Duerden (61), spinster, 27, Burnley road, Briercliffe. William Henry Duerden, caretaker, 23 Craw street, Briercliffe, nephew, said Miss Duerden was the daughter of a retired farmer, and she had lived alone for 20 years. She followed her occupation as a cotton weaver up to four years ago. Since then she had been treated for sugar diabetes. He last saw her on Boxing Day, when she appeared to be in her normal health. On Saturday he was told by Mr. R. Yates, of 25, Burnley road, Briercliffe, that he had not seen her since the previous Wednesday. Witness gained access to the house by a coal chute, and upstairs found his aunt dead in a crouched position against the bed in the front bedroom. Behind the door there were three daily newspapers which had not been opened. Dr. Patin, police surgeon, said death was due to myocardial degeneration. A verdict of “Natural causes” was returned. The internment takes place this (Wednesday) afternoon at Haggate Chapel.



This might be the William Henry Duerden mentioned http://www.briercliffesociety.co.uk/Gra ... erden6.htm

Burnley Express and News, November 11, 1939. page 11 (There is a photo of William Duerden with the news article)

The Rev. D.H. Curtis, vicar of St. John’s Church Gannow, officiated, and floral tributes were sent by: Sorrowing wife; daughter Hannah and Wilfred, Lawrence and Gladys; and Harry, Ethel and Eva, daughter in law Ethel and grandchildren Harry, Irene and Frank; Aunt Bell; his little love, Gladys; Dora, Harry, Ronnie; Mr. and Mrs. Duckworth; Mr. and Mrs. Wilkinson and Minnie; the neighbours; postmaster and staff, Burnley General Post Office.

Mel, do you have a photo of Richard Duerden’s grave at Haggate Chapel?

Richard Duerden died 10 June 1879 at Bridge Street, Brierfield, Marsden, aged 80 years. Martha Duerden (nee Hudson) his wife died 24 October 1860

There is nothing in the MI’ for this Richard so I presume no headstone exists, but I thought I would ask anyhow.

Thanks, Kris

Sorry Mel, you answered this question in another thread.

No problem Kris. I know we looked for this quite some time ago for Bobbie and the search was fruitless then. The only option I can see now is a search of the burial registers. Gloria and I have provided Bobbie with contact details so that she can pursue that avenue.
