On 20 June 1571 the testator was appointed surveyor of Oxford’s lands in Cornwall and Devon, and in 1575 purchased all Oxford’s manors in Cornwall. The testator’s wife, referred to in the will as ‘Lady Anne Stourton’, who died in 1602, was the daughter of Edward Stanley, 3rd Earl of Derby, and the widow of Charles, Lord Stourton, who had been hanged at Salisbury in 1557 for murdering his steward. John Stourton (1533-1588), the son of Lady Anne and Charles, Lord Stourton, married Lord Cobham’s daughter, Frances Brooke (b.1562) in 1579. After John Stourton’s death, Frances married Sir Edward More (d.1623), who was named one of the executors in the 1612 will of Oxford’s widow, Elizabeth Trentham (see TNA PROB 11/121/171). Francis Brooke’s twin sister, Elizabeth Brooke (1562-1597), was the wife of Oxford’s brother-in- law, Sir Robert Cecil (1563-1612).

How does one put into words the boundless gratitude to the people and organizations that have made this book possible? Still, I must try. This dissertation simply would not have been possible without the patience, encouragement, and guidance of Dr. Thomas Cogswell. In addition to pointing me in the direction of the most delightful and scandalous sources in early modern England, Tom’s help and advice helped me craft the larger argument and his laughter at the content fueled my drive. Thanks to Tom I will eternally move “onward and upward.” I owe Dr. Randolph Head a great deal for his unending support, his uncanny ability to help me see the narrative flow and the bigger picture, and his dogmatic attention to questions of historical practice.

  • Six Wills Relating to Cobham Hall
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 11 1877 ( 199 ) SIX WILLS RELATING TO COBHAM HALL. THE six testators whose wills we now print were, all of them, owners of Cobham Hall, during the sixteenth or seventeenth centuries, and all, save one perhaps, had resided therein. Their wills are given in the order of their dates, and succeed one another as follows:— 1. William Brooke, Lord Cobham.. 2. Trances, Countess of Kildare, wife of Henry Lord Cobham. 3. Prances Stuart, Duchess of Richmond and Lenox. 4. Charles Stuart, Duke of Richmond and Lenox. 5. Sir Joseph "Williamson. 6. Lady Catherine O'Brien. Eor copies of three of these wills (Nos. 2, 3, and 4) we are indebted to the courtesy of Mr. James Grreen- street, who kindly transcribed them for us at Somerset House. I have prefixed memoirs of the testators, and have appended to the wills such notes as seemed to be necessary. Copies of the wills of Sir Joseph Williamson and Lady Catherine O'Brien, are among the Earl of Darnley's archives at Cobham Hall. Lord Darnley courteously permitted me to transcribe them. Of William Lord Cobham's will, there is a copy in the British Museum (Lansdowne MS. No. 830), whence I transcribed it. W. A. SCOTT ROBERTSON. 200 WILLS RELATING TO COBHAM HALL. WILLIAM BROOKE, LORD COBHAM. This able and accomplished nobleman was eldest of the ten sons of George Brooke, Lord Cobham, by his wife Ann, daughter of Edmond first Baron Bray and co-heir of John, the Second Lord Bray. Upon the magnificent tomb which William Brooke erected, in Cobham Church, to the memory of his parents, he emblazoned nine of the eleven armorial quarterings to which his mother was entitled; she died in September, 1559, and he celebrated her praises in some Latin verses, which have been thus happily rendered by Mr.

THE SHAKESPEARE-BACON IMBROGLIO PREFACE These studies in secret history follow no chronological order. The affair of James de la Cloche only attracted the author's attention after most of the volume was in print. But any reader curious in the veiled intrigues of the Restoration will probably find it convenient to peruse 'The Mystery of James de la Cloche' after the essay on 'The Valet's Master,' as the puzzling adventures of de la Cloche occurred in the years (1668-1669), when the Valet was consigned to lifelong captivity, and the Master was broken on the wheel. What would have been done to 'Giacopo Stuardo' had he been a subject of Louis XIV., ''tis better only guessing.' But his fate, whoever he may have been, lay in the hands of Lord Ailesbury's 'good King,' Charles II., and so he had a good deliverance.

  • Family Lines from Companions of the Conqueror
    Companions of the Conqueror and the Conqueror 1 Those Companions of William the Conqueror From Whom Ralph Edward Griswold and Madge Elaine Turner Are Descended and Their Descents from The Conqueror Himself 18 May 2002 Note: This is a working document. The lines were copied quickly out of the Griswold-Turner data base and have not yet been retraced. They have cer- tainly not been proved by the accepted sources. This is a massive project that is done in pieces, and when one piece is done it is necessary to put it aside for a while before gaining the energy and enthusiasm to continue. It will be a working document for some time to come. This document also does not contain all the descents through the Turner or Newton Lines 2 Many men (women are not mentioned) accompanied William the Conqueror on his invasion of England. Many men and women have claimed to be descended from one or more of the= Only a few of these persons are documented; they were the leaders and colleagues of William of Normandy who were of sufficient note to have been recorded. Various sources for the names of “companions” (those who were immediate associates and were rewarded with land and responsibility in England) exist. Not all of them have been consulted for this document. New material is in preparation by reputable scholars that will aid researchers in this task. For the present we have used a list from J. R. Planché. The Conqueror and His Companions. Somerset Herald. London: Tinsley Brothers, 1874.. The persons listed here are not the complete list but constitute a subset from which either Ralph Edward Griswold or Madge Elaine Turner (or both) are descended).
