Gravener Henson
John Gravener Henson, (1785 – 15 Nov 1852) was a Nottingham workers’ leader and an historian of the framework-knitters. E.P. Thompson thought him one of the outstanding figures of the early working-class movement.〔E. P. Thompson, ''The Making of the English Working Class'' (1963), p.774〕
== Early Life ==
He was born in Nottingham in 1785, the son of James Henson and the former Mary Gravener.〔St. Mary’s, Nottingham marriage transcripts, 28 Jan 1782〕 The only hint of his religious sympathies occurs in a brief acknowledgement to the Wesleyan sect in his writings, and this may possibly indicate that he was educated at one of the town's Wesleyan Sunday schools.〔G. Henson, ''The civil, political, and mechanical history of the framework-knitters'' (Nottingham, 1831), p.250〕
He is first noticed on 8 October 1808, in the Nottingham Quarter Sessions Records when, named as John Gravenor (''sic'') Henson, he was the subject of a bastardy order in respect of a female child born to Elizabeth Bradwell.〔''Records of the Borough of Nottingham, vol viii, 1800-1835'' (Nottingham, 1952), pp.75-6〕
He married Martha Farnsworth at St. Mary's, Nottingham, in December 1813;〔St. Mary’s, Nottingham marriage transcripts, 23 Dec 1813〕 they are not known to have had any children, and she predeceased him in 1850.〔''Nottingham Review and General Advertiser for the Midland Counties'', 26 July 1850, p.4 〕 A contemporary said that ‘he was thick set with a short neck, keen small eyes, and a head very broad at the base, rising angularly to an unusual height’. 〔W. Felkin, ''A History of the Machine-wrought Hosiery and Lace Manufactures'' (1867), p.xvii〕
