		Manchester City Centre is now on a "tentative list" of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, mainly due to its network of canals and mills, which facilitated its development during the 19th century.
		The city centre is on the east bank of the River Irwell, near the confluence of the River Medlock and the River Irk and is relatively low-lying, being between 35 and 42 metres (115 to 138 ft) above sea level.
		As well as being a centre of capitalism the city saw its fair share of rebellion by the working and non-titled classes, with the most famous being the events on St Peter’s Field on 16 August 1819 which have become known as 'Peterloo'.

	Mrs Emmeline Pankhurst (1858-1928)
		Richard Marsden Pankhurst was born in Stoke-on-Trent in 1834.
		Dr Pankhurst was known as a pacificst, an agnostic and a socialist; his controversial views did not win him many clients, but did afford him a place of great respect within the Independent Labour Party.
		Mrs Pankhurst then had to find a new home for herself and her children, and they subsequently moved to 62 Nelson Street in Chorlton on Medlock, Manchester in what was evidently a downsizing exercise.

	Family Records - Exhibitions - Emmeline Pankhurst
		The aim of the WSPU was to secure for women the same voting rights as were enjoyed by men - an aim which was not fully realised until 1928 - the year of Emmeline's death.
		This is of great significance to family historians as before the passing of the Act married women did not have the right to own property and therefore did not, as a rule, leave wills.
		As well as commemorating the centenary of the founding of the WSPU, this exhibition is intended to illustrate the main sources for family historians which can be seen at the FRC and elsewhere.

		The area’s proximity to the sea was invaluable in bringing the inhabitants of the area into contact with the outside world, but was at the same time highly disadvantageous, in that the coastal lands were often threatened by foreign interference, invasion, and even occupation.
		Ethiopian history, as we know it, dawns with the emergence of an important centre of civilisation in the north of the country: this civilisation is exemplified by the great temple of Yeha, which dates back to perhaps the sixth or seventh centuries BC.
		It depicts Aksum in the centre, surrounded by twelve districts, the most northerly of which are Seraye, Hamasen, and Bur.

		Emmeline or Emily Pankhurst and her daughters Christabel and Sylvia are renowned as key figures in the Suffragette movement for the emancipation of women and the right to vote.
		Husband and father Richard Pankhurst has until now existed largely as a footnote to the remarkable deeds of his female kin.
		However, was it not for his authorship of key parliamentary acts, fuelled by a contagious enthusiasm for liberal politics, his family would almost certainly have trodden a less significant path.
