The purpose of this website is to share research regarding one branch of the Dawson family that emigrated into southwestern Pennsylvania in the latter part of the 1700s.

Most of the documents published on this website are from the research of my cousin, Al Addis, who has graciously shared with me. All documents are either scans or transcriptions of originals.

 Cardiff Corvey Articles, I.1: P. GARSIDE & A. MANDAL, Producing Fiction in Britain, 1800—1829
In the 1820s, accessions reached a new level, with the library in two single years (1822 and 1829) actually taking all but one of the novels in my index file.
Furthermore, female-penned works outnumber male-penned works by 23% (approximately 121 novels), although the average output of women’s novels had dropped from 64% in the latter half of the 1810s to around 51% during 1825–9.
Perhaps this emphasis on the female market explains the demise of Minerva in the 1820s, with their rather ‘unfashionable’ touting of female-penned works at a time which anticipated the dominance of the Victorian male author in the light of Scott’s phenomenal achievement.
