THE HIBBERT ASSEMBLY Richard Doddridge Blackmore (1825-1900) R.D. Blackmore is best known as the author of the novel Lorna Doone. His father was a minister in the Church of England. His mother died of typhus fever when he was only a few months old and his father then moved to the parish of Culmstock, near Barnstaple in Devon, which was to become Blackmore's favourite county and which provided the setting for Lorna Doone. He was educated at Blundell's School, Tiverton , where he became head boy, and Exeter College, Oxford. In 1852 he was called to the bar but had to give up his work as a barrister because of epilepsy. He turned to teaching, at Wellesley House School, Twickenham Common, but a substantial legacy from his uncle gave him freedom from any futher worries about money. He bought 12 acres of land at Teddington, built a house and established a market garden. His grapes, nectarines, peaches and pears, as well as flowers, were sold at Covent Garden market. Blackmore's first novel, Clara Vaughan, was published in 1864. Lorna Doone was his third novel and came out in 1869.

He considered The Maid of Sker to be the better work, but that was neither the view of his contemporaries nor posterity. R.D.Blackmore was the son of the Rev John Blackmore and Anne Bassett knight who hailed from the Nottage Court family of that name. She died almost immediately after giving birth to the boy, and in consequence he was brought up by her family at Nottage, and was familiar with the district, its history and its folklore. It is strange therefore that any similarity between his novel and the traditional story of The Maid of Sker is purely co-incidental... In fact "The Maid" plays only a minor role in the story which revolves around the exploits of David Llewelyn, a fisherman and former seaman from Newton Nottage. It is he who tells the story, and at the outset informs the reader that he is a grandfather recently widowed after 28 years of marriage in the year 1782. Later he goes on to describe his exploits during 18 years service when he rejoined the Royal Navy.
