THE NATIONAL ARCHIVESTHE “KINTYRE” FILES - 02b - 1768 to 1995

http://www.nas.gov.uk/onlineCatalogue/

An online search of the files related to Kintyre, the steamers and services on the Clyde and West Highlands and the filesrelated to Knapdale and Kilberry produced nearly 7,000 results, the main problem being that these files, presented online intabled batches of ten, need to be ‘re-tabled’ so that they can be presented in chronological order, a long and time-consumingprocess.

Though the results of the ‘re-tabling’ process are not ‘pleasing to the eye’, the successive addition of ‘re-edited’ tablesdistorting the widths of individual columns and Microsoft Word programs steadfastly refusing to correct the columns widths touniform widths, it remains that the work(s) are at least ‘serviceable’ in that, probably for the first time, the user can gain anyproper historical view of ‘Kintyre On Record’, from the 1300’s onwards to at least the 1990’s.

Not helping in these mateers of ‘uniformity’ is the fact that, any additional detail found on the files, that seen if one clicks onthe file references, has been added to the file entries, rather than require users to do this for themselves and the detail, at aglance, often suggests to the user that it is worthwhile actually going to Edinburgh to further explore particular files.

The original idea had been to list all 7,000 ‘Kintyre-related’ files in a single document but, in view of the results of processingthe first ‘Kintyre-related’ file, a single such document might run well in excess of 1,500-pages and, because of its size, be

unlikely not only to upload to the internet but too be impossible for those with slow, ‘dial-up’ internet connections, beimpossible to download too.

Only by splitting the various files into, at least initially, geographical groupings can these files be put online and, given thatthey could be uploaded and downloaded in Microsoft Word format, anyone so inclined could then merge all the various tablesand, selecting the first column of the then completed ‘composite’ table, the column with all the uniformly listed dates, byusing the ‘Table/A-Z Sort’ on the Microsoft Word program’s toolbar, it MIGHT be possible to chronologically list all the fileentries, THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES THAT PROCESS THIS MIGHT WORK and the end product would undoubtably look ‘messy’,even though ‘serviceable’ enough to use using ‘’Edit/Find’ facility on the Microsoft Word program’s toolbar to look for entries of particular interest.

ADMIN HISTORY

The Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses are vested with thesuperintendence and management of all lighthouses, buoys and beaconsthroughout Scotland and the adjacent seas and islands and the Isle of Manunder Section 195 of the Merchant Shipping Act 1995. They are a corporatebody, known as the Northern Lighthouse Board (the Board), constituted bySection 193 of that Act. The Commissioners presently consist of: the LordAdvocate and the Solicitor General for Scotland; the Lords Provost of Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen and the convenors of the Councils forHighland, and Argyll and Bute; the Sheriffs Principal of all the sheriffdoms inScotland; a person nominated by the Lieutenant Governor of the Isle of Manand appointed by the Secretary of State; and up to 5 co-opted

21



Commissioners.

Origins

In 1782 a number of severe storms highlighted the lack of lighthouses aroundthe Scottish coasts. This prompted George Dempster of Dunnichen, MP,provost of Forfar, to raise the matter of lighthouse provision at the Convention

of Royal Burghs in 1784 and subsequently in the House of Commons. Theresulting Commons committee recommended legislation, and the Act of Parliament of 1786 (26 Geo III c.101), which founded the Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses, followed. The act appointed 19 commissioners:

The Lord Advocate and the Solicitor-General for Scotland The lords provost of Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen, and the provosts of Inverness and Campbeltown The eldest bailies of Edinburgh and Glasgow The sheriffs of Edinburgh, Lanark, Renfrew, Bute, Argyll, Inverness, Ross,Orkney, Caithness and Aberdeen.

The act gave them powers to borrow money, purchase land, and to levy duesfrom ships to finance their activities. It authorised them to construct fourlighthouses:

Kinnaird HeadNorth RonaldsayScalpay (Eilean Glas)Mull of Kintyre

Kinnaird Head lighthouse (near Fraserburgh) was the earliest to be built, with a

light first exhibited on 1 December 1787 (this building is now open to thepublic, in conjunction with Scotland's Lighthouse Museum). The other lightswere completed within three years.

Extension of Powers

The powers of the Commissioners were extended by Acts of Parliament in1788 and 1789 (28 Geo III c.2 and 29 Geo III c.52). The latter gave them thegeneral power to construct new lighthouses as they deemed necessary out of surplus dues collected. All the Commissioners' lighthouses in Scotland (apartfrom the four named above) were constructed under this provision, which was

22



confirmed in subsequent acts. The 1789 Act also gave them the power toenlarge the number of Commissioners by electing the provost of the nearestburgh, or sheriff depute of the county in which a new light was built. A localand personal Act of 1798 (38 Geo III c.57) constituted the Commissioners acorporate body as the Commissioners of the Northern Lighthouses.

Purchase of the Isle of May light

The earliest lighthouse in Scotland was constructed on the Isle of May by James Maxwell of Innerwick and John Cunninghame of Barnes, under a patentfrom Charles I of 1635 (Acts of the Parliaments of Scotland, V, pp. 494-5). An1814 Act (54 Geo III c. 136) empowered the Commissioners to purchase theMay light from the Duke and Duchess of Portland, its then owners, and thepresent lighthouse was then built and illuminated from 1816.

Jurisdiction extended to the Isle of Man

Until 1815, the Isle of Man lay outwith the jurisdiction of any of the lighthouse

authorities. To ensure lighthouse coverage there, a Local Act of 55 Geo III c.67gave the Commissioners of the Northern Lighthouses powers to erect twolighthouses on Man, and subsequently the Calf of Man and Point Of Ayre lightswere illuminated from 1818. The Merchant Shipping Act of 1854, ss. 389, 404gave the Commissioners general powers to construct lighthouses on Man.

Supervision by Trinity House

The Commissioners retained unfettered control over the construction of newlights and seamarks until 1836, when, by the Act of 6&7 Wm IV c.79, ss. 42 3,their proposals for new lighthouses were made subject to the approval of

Trinity House. The aim of this was 'the attainment of uniformity of system inthe management of lighthouses'. As the funding arrangements of theCommissioners and of Trinity House remained separate at this date, thelatter's oversight referred to the character, rather than the cost of the work.

Supervision of local lights and seamarks

Local lights and seamarks were generally erected and maintained underspecial local Acts of Parliament or burgh charters. The earliest light on the Tay,at Buddonness, was constructed under an Act of the Privy Council of 24February 1687 (Register of the Privy Council, XVI, p. 616; SRO ref: PC2/23) by

23



the Fraternity of Masters and Seamen in Dundee (later Trinity House of Dundee). On the Clyde, trustees were first authorised by the Act of 29 Geo II c20 to build a light on Little Cumbrae (records of the Clyde Lighthouses Trustare held at Glasgow City Archives, Ref.: T-CN40-44,T-CN).

Section 38 of the Act of 6&7 Wm IV c.79, s. 38 made lights and seamarksestablished by these and other harbour and local authorities subject to the

inspection and supervision of the Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses.

Board of Trade's powers

Section 7 of the Merchant Shipping Law Amendment Act, 1853 provided thatdues collected by all the lighthouse authorities (ie Trinity House,Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses and Port of Dublin Corporation) shouldbe aggregated into the Mercantile Marine Fund, administered by thePaymaster General, and payments to the authorities from the fund were madesubject to the approval of the Board of Trade. In addition to this financialoversight, section 21 of the Act increased Trinity House's powers over the

other authorities. This meant that they could direct the Commissioners tobuild, maintain, alter or remove any lighthouse within their jurisdiction. TrinityHouse's directions could, however, only take effect with Board of Tradesanction, and after giving the Commissioners the opportunity to makerepresentations to the Board.

The Merchant Shipping Act of 1894 confirmed the Commissioners of NorthernLighthouses as a corporate body and as the general lighthouse authority forthe lighthouse area defined as 'Scotland and the adjacent seas and islands,and the Isle of Man'. The other general lighthouse authorities were TrinityHouse for England and Wales, and the Commissioners of Irish Lights. It also

consolidated the relative powers of the Commissioners, the Board of Trade and Trinity House.

Funding arrangements for the Highlands and Islands

From 1891, the Western Highlands and Islands Commission recommended theconstruction by the Commissioners of Northern Lighthouses of a number of lights which did not fit the usual criteria for new lights, in that they were toolocal in their benefits to be financed from the Mercantile Marine Fund (from1898, the General Lighthouse Fund). The costs of erecting and maintaining 17lights, two beacons and one buoy were therefore met by the Treasury from the

24



Congested Districts Fund, under the management of the Congested Districts(Scotland) Commissioners.

Removal of Trinity House's powers

Section 33 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1979 removed Trinity House's powersof control and inspection over the Commissioners. It also empowered them to

elect up to five members, but specified that they or existing Commissionersshould have special knowledge of nautical matters (amending the power givenby Section 18 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1974).

The Records The records divide into two main groups:

1. NLC1-20 Headquarters Records. These comprise the annual reports,minutes etc. of the Board of Commissioners itself (NLC1-2 - the only extensiveseries of records to survive from the 19th century), and the records created by

the board's central departments, principally those overseen by the Secretaryand by the Engineer, as follows:

The Secretary to the Commissioners was responsible for services to the Boardof Commissioners, personnel matters, finance and general administration (seeNLC3-10). The Secretary's department recorded its business in the extensiveseries of Correspondence and Report volumes (NLC3/1-2), and various files. Itkept the records of the Board's personnel (NLC4). It also issued various seriesof orders and circulars to shore stations and lighthouses (NLC5), and issued'Notices to Mariners' to the seafaring public.

In 1893 the Secretary had under him an Accountant and Cashier, an Examinerof Accounts, three Clerks, and the Superintendent and his staff.

From 1956, the Secretary's title changed to 'Secretary & General Manager'. Aseparate General Manager was appointed from 1964.

The Superintendent was responsible for the routine activities of thelightkeepers and other outdoor staff, routine maintenance of lighthouses,stores, ships and shore stations and boat attendance. He had under him anAssistant Superintendent, a number of District Superintendents. By 1972, hewas reporting to the Engineer-in-Chief. A Marine Superintendent, in charge of

25



the Commissioners' ships, was appointed in 1970.

The Engineer had overall responsibility for the construction and maintenanceof lighthouses seamarks and buoys, for radio and radar installations, and forinspections of NLC and other lights. His department generated various seriesof bound files (see NLC11). His title was changed to 'Engineer-in-Chief' in1972.

It is worth noting that members of the Stevenson family served as Engineersto the Board from 1808-1938. Many of the family's records, including materialrelevant to their work for the Commissioners, are held by the National Libraryof Scotland (see under associated material).

2. NLC20-111 Lighthouse Records. This group comprises records originating inor provided for the manned major lighthouses themselves. These include theorders to the keepers from the Board, returns (monthly, wreck andmeteorological) which they were required to make to the Board, visitorsalbums, and records of the routine running of the lighthouse. All NLC

lighthouses have now been automated.

Genealogical information

The main sources of genealogical information within these records are theRegisters and Lists of Lightkeepers and Establishment Books (NLC4/1-2).However, the Board Minutes (NLC2/1) often note the employment, dismissal,retirements of, and accidents to, individual employees, especially in the 19thcentury. The General Orders (NLC5/1) detail disciplinary offences of individualkeepers, and the Secretary's Correspondence and Reports (NLC3/1) alsocontain material on individual employees (see especially under subject

numbers 93).1789 - 08 -25
