  • Antecessor Noster: the Parentage of Countess Lucy Made Plain
    Prosopon Newsletter 1 Copyright © Katharine S. B. Keats-Rohan, 1995 Antecessor Noster: The Parentage of Countess Lucy Made Plain. Katharine S. B. Keats-Rohan (University of Oxford) A lot of ink has flowed on the subject, but there can be no doubt that the ‘mysterious’ Countess Lucy of Chester was William Malet’s thrice-married granddaughter, the daughter of Robert Malet’s sister and Turold the Sheriff of Lincoln (dead by 1079).1 The suggestion was first made by R. Kirk in 1888.2 As N. Sumner has more recently observed: ‘This account has the merit of explaining why the lordship of Spalding and other places in Lincolnshire were held after Ivo’s death not by Beatrice, his direct heir and the daughter of his marriage to Lucy,3 but by the later husbands of Lucy, Roger fitz Gerold and Ranulph Meschines.’4 It is clear from her charters that Lucy was an heiress; as was to be expected, her estates passed to the sons of her second and third marriages. Kirk’s work was based upon conjecture, and contained a number of errors. The question of Lucy’s parentage has therefore remained open. Nevertheless, there is proof that Kirk was right. A spurious charter of Crowland Abbey made Turold of Bucknall (the Sheriff) the founder of the priory of Spalding as a cell of Crowland. It also called Turold brother of Godiva countess of Mercia, but subsequently described Godiva’s son Earl Algar as Turold’s cognatus (cousin).5 A genealogia fundatoris of Coventry Abbey made Lucy a daughter of Earl Algar and sister and heiress of earls Edwin and Morcar.6 The Peterborough Chronicle and the Pseudo-Ingulf’s Chronicle of Crowland both made Lucy the daughter of Algar and niece or great-niece of Turold.7 We know that William Malet was half-English, so these traditions probably boil down to a relationship between Countess Godiva and William’s English mother.

  • ASPECTS of Tile MONASTIC PATRONAGE of Tile ENGLISH
    ASPECTS OF TIlE MONASTIC PATRONAGE OF TIlE ENGLISH AND FRENCH ROYAL HOUSES, c. 1130-1270 by Elizabeth M. Hallani VC i% % Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, in History presented at the University of London. 1976. / •1 ii SUMMARY This study takes as its theme the relationship of the English and French kings and the religious orders, £.1130-1270, Patronage in general is a field relatively neglected in the rich literature on the monastic life, and royal patronage has never before been traced over a broad period for both France and England. The chief concern here is with royal favour shown towards the various orders of monks and friars, in the foundations and donations made by the kings. This is put in the context of monastic patronage set in a wider field, and of the charters and pensions which are part of its formaL expression. The monastic foundations and the general pattern of royal donations to different orders are discussed in some detail in the core of the work; the material is divided roughly according to the reigns of the kings. Evidence from chronicles and the physical remains of buildings is drawn upon as well as collections of charters and royal financial documents. The personalities and attitudes of the monarchs towards the religious hierarchy, the way in which monastic patronage reflects their political interests, and the contrasts between English and French patterns of patronage are all analysed, and the development of the royal monastic mausoleum in Western Europe is discussed as a special case of monastic patronage. A comparison is attempted of royal and non-royal foundations based on a statistical analysis.

  • The Parish of Christchurch the Priory Church of the Holy Trinity, Christchurch St George, Jumpers  St John at Purewell for Sunday 9 May, 2021
    The Parish of Christchurch The Priory Church of the Holy Trinity, Christchurch St George, Jumpers St John at Purewell for Sunday 9 May, 2021 Dear Friends, Our journey through these eight weeks of Easter takes a new direction on Thursday 13th, when the Church celebrates Ascension Day. In addition to our customary morning services at the Priory (11.00) and St George’s (10.00), we shall mark this important festival by holding a Eucharist for Ascension Day at 7.00pm that evening in the Priory. The Ascension appears in the list of Jesus’ life events recorded in the Apostles' Creed – conception, birth, crucifixion, death, resurrection, ascension and, the only one yet to happen, when Jesus shall “come again to judge the living and the dead”. Ascension is the sign that Jesus has been vindicated as our Saviour and now reigns as Lord; that "at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord" (Phil 2.10). Ascension is the confirmation that the salvation Jesus achieved on the cross and released through the resurrection means that humanity has been redeemed and is now taken up into heaven with Christ. Ascension is the sign that, in Christ, we have direct access to God our Father, to worship him in all we are and in all we do; for Christ has restored the fellowship of heaven and earth. * * * * * As every year since 2016, Thy Kingdom Come begins on Ascension Day and continues until Pentecost, on May 23rd.

  • Tavistock Abbey
    TAVISTOCK ABBEY Tavistock Abbey, also known as the Abbey of Saint Mary and Saint Rumon was originally constructed of timber in 974AD but 16 years later the Vikings looted the abbey then burned it to the ground, the later abbey which is depicted here, was then re-built in stone. On the left is a 19th century engraving of the Court Gate as seen at the top of the sketch above and which of course can still be seen today near Tavistock’s museum. In those early days Tavistock would have been just a small hamlet so the abbey situated beside the River Tavy is sure to have dominated the landscape with a few scattered farmsteads and open grassland all around, West Down, Whitchurch Down and even Roborough Down would have had no roads, railways or canals dividing the land, just rough packhorse routes. There would however have been rivers meandering through the countryside of West Devon such as the Tavy and the Walkham but the land belonging to Tavistock’s abbots stretched as far as the River Tamar; packhorse routes would then have carried the black-robed monks across the border into Cornwall. So for centuries, religious life went on in the abbey until the 16th century when Henry VIII decided he wanted a divorce which was against the teachings of the Catholic Church. We all know what happened next of course, the Dissolution of the Monasteries, when along with all the other abbeys throughout the land, Tavistock Abbey was raised to the ground. Just a few ruined bits still remain into the 21st century.

The village takes its name from having been part of the original endowment of Tavistock Abbey and possesses a fine 15th Century church. Many of the houses and cottages were built as a “model village” for the local workers by the Duke of Bedford’s estate and designed in the Lutyens style. In the village there is also a pub, shop and primary school. The nearby ancient stannary town of Tavistock possesses a full selection of local facilities including shops and restaurants, and private education with Kelly College and Mount House Preparatory School. Just beyond Tavistock is the western boundary of the Dartmoor National Park, renowned for its spectacular scenery and providing many opportunities locally for walking, riding and fishing. Nearby is the beautiful, partly wooded River Tamar Valley and to the south the estuaries of the Rivers Tamar and Tavy and the beautiful South Devon and Cornwall coast with its beaches, estuaries and excellent opportunities for sailing.

Using the heiresses of the earldoms and honours of Chester, Pembroke, Leicester and Winchester as case studies, this thesis sheds light on the processes of female inheritance and the effects of coparceny in a turbulent period of English history. The lives of the heiresses featured in this thesis span the reigns of three English kings: John, Henry III and Edward I. The reigns of John and Henry saw bitter civil wars, whilst Edward’s was plagued with expensive foreign wars.

  • David Hugh Farmer . an Appreciation
    David Hugh Farmer . An Appreciation Anne E. Curry University of Reading On 29 June 1988, over 80 past and present members and supporters of the Graduate Centre for Medieval Studies gathered for its annual summer sy mposium, on this occasion dedicated to the theme of 'Saints' to mark the retirement of David Hugh Farmer. It may seem odd to begin an appreciation of David with a remembrance of the end of his time at Reading, but that June day (by happy coincidence the double feast of Saints Peter and Paul) very much summed up David's important contribution to Medieval Studies in this University. The large audience present testified to the affection and respect in which he was, and is, held by the many staff and students who have known him. Several unable to attend sent their greetings. The theme of 'Saints', which David has made very much hi s own, with such memorable consequences, proved as stimulating as it was appropriate to the occasion. The 1988 summer symposium was one of the most successful, enjoyable and uplifting meetings that the GCMS has ever staged. The spirit of good humour, combined with academic stimulation, permeated the assembly and David himself spoke with his customary sensitivity and commitment.
