William Wallen (architect) : ウィキペディア英語版 | William Wallen (architect) William Wallen (1807-1888) was an architect who practiced in London and Huddersfield, Yorkshire. He was also a campaigner for better architectural education and professional status. == Biography == William Wallen, the son of John Wallen (1785-1865) and Maria Adams (1780-1825) was baptised at St. Marys, Stepney in 1807.〔St Marys Register 26 Apr 1807〕 William received architectural training from his father. In 1830, William married Frances Gill (1802-1895) 〔England, Marriages, 1538–1973. Available, FamilySearch, 2013, Film Number: 1470803 Reference ID: p.192 cn.575〕 and the following year, their son, William Sowerby Wallen, was baptised at Whitechapel, London.〔London Metropolitan Archives, Whitechapel St Mary, Register of Baptism, p93/mry1, Item 075〕 They lived with John Wallen’s extended family in various homes in and around Norton Folgate, London. In 1838, William moved his practice to Huddersfield, Yorkshire. Frances had been born in nearby Notton,〔Royston parish record: 1802, Gill and Atkinson.〕 therefore, family connections may have influenced this move. By 1851, William, Frances, their son, William Sowerby and niece, Julia Gill, were living at 61 New North Rd, Huddersfield.〔1851 census〕 During 1853, William ceased to practice and it was later assumed by most historians that he had died.〔Jones G. 2015, ‘William Wallen (1807- ) The Renowned Architect Rediscovered’, Brisbane: Ancestry, 1-2.〕 Statements made by civic leaders at this point in time indicate that William was highly regarded in both Huddersfield and within architectural circles; therefore, it is probable that his fate was not openly discussed. In reality, William was admitted to the Bootham Lunatic Hospital in September 1853 and remained a patient there until his death in 1888, aged 81 years.〔Yorkshire Archive - Bootham Yorkshire York BOO/39/82〕 The exact nature of William’s condition is not recorded; however, he apparently retained his research and communication skills. In 1871, taking part in Bootham’s regular ‘programme of entertainments’ he delivered a lecture to his fellow inmates entitled, ''An Analysis of the Franco-Prussian War''.〔Wilkins E.T. 1871, ''Insanity and Insane Asylums,Report by Wilkins, Commissioner for Lunacy in the State of California, made to his Excellency H.H.Haight, Governor''. California: Springer,296.〕 Frances supported herself as a schoolteacher; she died, aged 93, in Leeds.〔Record, West Riding Volume: 9b Page: 290.〕 William Sowerby Wallen (1831-1870), became a Surgeon, practicing in Rotherhithe and also serving as Vice Surgeon to the 23rd Surrey Rifle Volunteer Corps. He died in Natal, South Africa.〔The Medical Register -UK 1859, p. 310; London Gazettes 1861 and 1865.〕
