In late 2014, two members of The Hoole History & Heritage Society, whilst researching, at the National Archives in Kew, the origins of the Chester Union Workhouse in Hoole, stumbled upon an unrelated, but unique and fascinating document that had led to a major development in Hoole in the late nineteenth century.

In August 2019, a Society member, Ruth Ludgate provided a further piece of research associated with the 'Memorial' and two of the signatories - Edward Richards and Edward Noel Humphreys (the [[Baker and the Accountant]]).
