Surtees Society - founded

The Surtees Society was constituted on the 27th of May 1834, at a meeting held at Durham, and James Raine was appointed its first secretary. The Society was founded in honour of Robert Surtees of Mainsforth (1779-1834), the author of The History and Antiquities of the County Palatine of Durham (1816-1840) and whose seal is reproduced on the title page of the society's publications relating to the history of the region.
