After many generations, the family of 'Sumpner', 'Somner' and later 'Sumner' eventually became Clothiers in Seend. The following is a small exerpt from the parish history by John Chandler and is taken from his books ‘Marlborough and Eastern Wiltshire’ and ‘Devizes and Central Wiltshire’

'The Seend clothiers created dynasties – Dugdale, Sumner, Awdry, Usher – which intermarried with each other and with similar families from elsewhere. They rose to the status of gentry and built the remarkable series of fine houses which now line the village street. The elaborate monuments to the dead inside the church complement the elaborate houses – Seend House, Cleeve House, Seend Green House, the Manor House – in which they had lived. Some returned to the artisan level of craft weavers from which they had originated. The clothiers controlled the weavers, spinners and other craftsmen, who worked in more modest cottages and small houses, perhaps with workshops attached. It is the survivors among these that give Seend Cleeve its character.'.

Notes from the Wiltshire County Council Web Site -

The seventeenth century saw buildings continuing to be erected in the High Street such as Seend Lodge, The Manor house, Bell Hill Cottages and Seend Green House (residence of John Sumner, friend of John Aubrey) with its walled garden, summerhouse, stable block and coach house. Opposite is Horse Pond and Edward Cook’s smithy (on the corner of what still is Cook’s Lane).Greenhayes House has a 17th century core and may have been the White Hart Inn in 1690. Most of the 17th century houses were re-faced with brick in the 19th century. A Pound in Seend Green had been there since the 17th century, but is not there now.

The 19th century saw six farmhouses built in Seend: Seend Hill Farm, Turner’s Farm, Marsh Farm (Seymour Lodge), Seend Farm/Sumner’s (Vicarage), Manor Farm and Malthouse Farm.

There was a Mill in Seend from the 13th century and the broad cloth trade was the principle one in the village in the 15th century. Western Wiltshire was one of the main manufacturing areas it the country. Summerham Brook powered the water mills. Other village craftsmen in the 17th century were weavers, fullers, tucker, shearman and tailors, still largely having a connection with the wool trade. The trade began to decline in the early 17th century and lead to a lack of jobs for weavers. Three Seend weavers were prosecuted for rioting when corn was being collected at Seend Green. The villagers saw the grain but couldn’t afford to buy any. The weavers were imprisoned in Warminster gaol for a few days, and then put in the stocks for two hours. In 1647 Seend villagers joined others in the locality to make representations at the Quarter Sessions on the ‘miserable condition for want of work’. The industry recovered in the late 17th and 18th century. Clothiers became so rich that they began to own property, for example the Somner family. Weavers earned more than farm labourers and in 1797 income was spent on barley flour, yeast, salt, tea, butter, cheese soap, candles, thread, coals and garden vegetables. In 1814 the row of cottages next to the Methodist Chapel were leased and re-built to form workshops for the clothing trade, but by 1841 there were no weavers, finishers or spinners in Seend. Labourers fared poorly; a labourer living in the Melksham area in a house on ‘part of the waste’ that was in poor condition did not dare to ask the Parish to repair it in case they should claim it. The poor often moved to the Salisbury Plain area for better wages and more constant employment at that time.

Sp. Helen R (A) LEISHMAN (1884?- ) [786].

Records for the wife of Arthur James Sumner are proving difficult to find. Family history says her name was Rona Hoare, whereas records for the mother of Jean and Freda Sumner (Arthur Sumner's daughters) give here as Helen R. Leishman from Edinburgh. She was a Saddle Maker Arthur was a Shoeing Smith / Farrier.

She could have been married before she met Arthur, to an Unknown Hoare, and timing is correct for a first husband to have died in the First World War. Perhaps like Arthur, he served in the Army. Alternatively Rona Hoare might have been Arthur's second wife.

Arthur's younger brother Henry married a Grace Annie Leishman from Kirkcaldy, Fife, Scotland. Were Helen and Grace sisters or cousins ? Currently records to prove (or disprove) any of this, have not been found.

The following was taken from a newspaper cutting from the Gloucestershire Echo on February 28th. 1956.

LINK WITH OLD HACKNEY CARRIAGE DAYS.

A link with the old hackney carriage days in Cheltenham has been severed by the death, in his 94th year, of Mr.Herbert Arther Sumner, formerly of Lansdown Mews.

Mr.Sumner, who died in a local nursing home, was a well-known figure in Cheltenham in his younger days when he became the proprietor of a fleet of nearly 20 carriages. He started in business in 1885 as a young man of 22, and retired in 1935.

Son of a blacksmith, he was born in Erlestoke village just outside Devizes, and came to Cheltenham at the age of 18 to work for a coal merchant. Four years later he ventured out on his own on a hackney carriage business, acquiring a single carriage and horse.

ROAD JOURNEYS

After acquiring the Lansdown Mews, Mr.Sumner gradually added to his business, and eventually built up a fleet of hackney carriages which operated day and night in and around the Cheltenham district.

Often, his carriages would travel as far as Oxford, and Devizes, and journeys to Northleach and Stow-on-the-Wold were frequent.

When he retired, he still kept some of the horses he prized; only when the war came did he decide to dispose of them. "I couldn't face the thought of bombs falling on the stables," he used to tell his son, Mr.Herbert Sumner, who now lives in retirement at 165 Brooklyn Road.

ACTIVE FIGURE

Always tremendously active, Mr.Sumner often used to work for over 20 hours a day. Yet, oddly enough, he was a great walker.

Only last year, then 92, he walked the five miles to Bishop's Cleeve to visit the annual show, and then walked back again in the evening.

He is survived by his son, a daughter, 11 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.

The picture of the late Mr.Sumner, which is reproduced above, was taken by Mr.John W.Champ of Churchdown, a member of the Cheltenham Camera Club, and has been exhibited by him.

The 17th century diarist John Aubrey had a long-standing connection with Seend. His friend, John Somner (Sumner) lived at Seend Green House in 1665. Aubrey made addresses to John’s sister Joane Somner. He stayed for over a year and in 1666 obtained a licence to marry her but the engagement was broken off leading to three years of bitter litigation. Joan accused Aubrey of appropriating money she lent him to raise a mortgage on his family home at Easton Pierce. He said she had jilted him like the previous house-mate Dr Jolliff’s brother. The Salisbury Court awarded him £600 damages for breach of promise but a later trial reduced this to £300 and legal expenses were costly. He sold his Wiltshire property and lived with various friends until his death in 1697. Joane Somner later married Mr Robert Pope of Wedmore, Somerset, in 1671 but died 9 months later (probably in childbirth).

The stream depicted at the foot of the Seend church window reminds us that water was essential for both settlement and agriculture, but at Seend it was also important in two other ways. Like Melksham, Holt and other places on the way to Bath, Seend tried to entice wealthy convalescents to stop and benefit from the curative properties of its own water. John Aubrey, who lived at Seend in 1665-6 (when he entered into a disastrous engagement with his host and friend’s sister, Joan Sumner), lavishly praised and promoted Seend water, and there was a brief possibility around 1684-90 that the village might develop as a spa, focussed on a chalybeate source in the grounds of what is now Seend Green House. But as with so many of Aubrey’s projects (including his proposed marriage) it came to nothing, and Seend water maintained only a local reputation.
