Who’s Who in Whitby History 

Whitby has had a select band of both the good and the bad that has helped to put this ancient seaport on the map of Whitby history. 

Oscar Wilde once said ‘There is only one thing worse than being talked about and that is not being talked about.’

Indeed people’s fascination with private lives is the life blood of gossip. In writing, biographies and autobiographies rank high on the list of most popular books, and throughout history authors have made a living trading on telling tales about their fellow men.

In Whitby we have been no less fortunate in having had a select band of both the good and the bad that has helped to put this ancient seaport on the map of history.

This work is an attempt at putting together a collection of who’s who in Whitby history.
