Samuel Hey was at Ockbrook Vicarage throughout, but occasionally wrote letters elsewhere. Letters are from father to son unless otherwise stated.

The letters are arranged chronologically. Notes on the contents of each of the letters can be found in the individual item descriptions below.

The letters are arranged chronologically. Notes on the contents of each of the letters can be found in the individual item descriptions below.

Some of the matters described in these letters are also contained in letters written by their father (HEY/1) and other members of the family. Apart from HEY/5/4 and HEY/5/6, these were written at Ockbrook, and all were sent to William Hey at Silk Willoughby Rectory. All give in great detail accounts of church services and other ecclesiastical affairs, plus family and social news. Lucy was only eleven when she started writing to her brother. Their father has added a P.S. to HEY/5/4, which Lucy wrote at Ilkley when accompanied by Fanny (the nurse) and her brother Samuel, two years her junior. The P.S. conveys anxiety about their mother's illness; she died at the end of the following January. The journey to Ilkley is described by Lucy and an excursion to Leeds to see Aunt Rebecca and other relations there; also the visit from Grandpapa (Gray) and Aunt Mary (Mrs. Jonathan Gray). The William at Malton mentioned in the P.S. is the famous missionary, William Jowett (1787-1855) - see DNB, a brother of Rev. Joseph Jowett of Silk Willoughby. HEY/5/6 emanated from Quorndon (or Quorn) near Loughborough, where some of the children had gone for their health, Lucy preferring Kedleston water to Chalybeate(?). Owing to the cross-writing, much of this last letter is very difficult to read. Lucy was said to be suffering from cholera morbus. This child died on 27th Nov 1826, aged 13.

Rebecca took charge at Ockbrook Vicarage on the death of William's mother in 1826. The first letter is to William at Silk Willoughby, followed by four to Sherborne School and one only to Cambridge in 1832.

The first five are from his schools at Gainsborough and Blackheath (1833-1837), all being sent to Cambridge, except the last in 1837. The last five are from and to various locations and destinations (1840-1844). For Robert’s clerical appointments, see note to HEY/9/10: it was at Robert’s house at Belper that his father, the Revd. Samuel Hey died in 1852.

All were written from her school, Alders, Tamworth to William at Cambridge 1831-1833. Margaret, although physically weak, settled well and enjoyed her schooling. In HEY/8/1 the friend of the Grays was undoubtedly Mr. Brodrick, the London Solicitor who had been articled at York to Margaret's grandfather at the same time as her uncle Jonathan Gray. Cholera is mentioned in letters HEY/8/3 and HEY/8/4. In HEY/8/5, brother Samuel's failure to write was doubtless the result of his having an extremely full curriculum at Leeds Medical School and the Infirmary, which he went to in August 1831. He had written to her in the autumn of 1832 (HEY/8/4). Cousin Samuel was the Rev. Samuel Hey later called 'Sam Hey of Sawley': he never married and died in 1893 aged 87.

At this time he was in residence at Allestree Hall near Derby.

All the letters were sent from Ockbrook.

The cover contains notes on these three and two other letters.
