The History of Campsea Ashe Rev
The History of Campsea Ashe Rev. F G L Lucas, 1909 THE HISTORY OF CAMPSEA ASHE by Reverend F G L Lucas, Rector begun in 1909 In long past days orthography was an art even less universally acquired than it is at the present day. Every man spelt as seemed right in his own eyes, apparently with no sense of consistency, especially with regard to proper names, for the same name often appears with different spelling, perhaps twice in one line. Thus it is that the name of our Parish has been spelt in many ways:- Campesse, Capesea, Capsea, Camsey, Camesy, Campes, Campsey, Campsea etc. Ash, Ashe, Ahys, Ayssch, Asshe etc. Ayssch next Campsey, Ashe juxta Campessy, Ash by Campsey, Ash next Campsey, Campsey Ashe, Campsea Ashe. The derivation of the two names (originally they were two separate parishes or villages) is very uncertain. Canon Raven, in his ‘History of Suffolk’, speaks of the reverence in which the Ash tree was held in olden times. The yggdrasil, or maybe mystic Ash, was considered by the ancient Teuton races to be both the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge, with roots reaching down to the abode of the Old Dragon, to the Fountain of Wisdom and to the Seat of Judgment. The god Odin was walking one day, with Haener and Loden, two other gods, near the sea: they found an ash and an elm, whereof they constructed the first man and the first woman. The Scandinavian and Teuton invaders of our Island were probably delighted to find these two trees indigenous to the British soil and the words ash and elm were attached by them to various localities: e.g. -

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 TH"£Sc S F 776y 2 Abstract Historians have generally dismissed the ministry of Henry Addington as an absurd interlude in the political career of William Pitt, the Younger, and the few attempts to rehabilitate Addington have been unable to overcome the weight of this negative historiography. The focus of contemporary and historical criticism has centred on the foreign and war policies of the ministry, but this has failed to take into account the serious and interrelated diplomatic, military, social, and political problems faced by the government. Social unrest caused largely by high prices of grain, political pressure from interests that had been hurt by the closure of European markets to British trade, and a poor diplomatic and strategic position meant that peace was highly desirable but that concessions were necessary to obtain it. -
Xerox University Microfilms 300 North Zeeb Road Ann Arbor, Michigan 4B106 73-18,905
INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from die document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in die adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual contentof greatest is value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. -

But He Intends Shortly to Publish the Grounds on Which It Is Based. These
BLYFORD CHURCH. 427 but he intends shortly to publish the grounds on which it is based. These are sufficient in range and degree to make it unfair to reject the interpretation until they are considered :— • A N 13 T — MARIA St /6*1.NHK R Ad-Nomina JeSus Beata t Sanctee Trinitatis (et) MARIw Sanctarum ANnte Honoria Katarince Reconstructa. It should be moticed that the chancel is rebuilt, and that Saints Anne and Katherine are often associated, that to St. Anne was dedicated the corresponding chapel to.that of the Blessed Virgin, and that within the Lombardic T, after St., is a shield bearing circular flints, correspond- ing to the circles of the Pater Filius shield. Tea was served at the " White Hart Inn," Blythburgh; and the party re-mounted and were driven to Blyford Church, where Rev. John F. Noott, B.A., read the following brief description :— BLYFORD CHURCH. The donative of Blyford offers a cordial greeting to the Suffolk Archaeological Society,. and, although she has not much to be proud of, yet there are a few features of Archmological and:Ecclesiastical interest. As a donative she forms a member of about 300 similar benefices scattered throughout the country, chiefly associated witb , and attached to, ancient castles, manors, and proprietory rights. It is difficult to arrive at a solution of their original foundation. Enquiry has been made at the British Museum for documents, of Ecclesiastical professors at Cambridge, and of an eminent Roman Catholic, but without success, it therefore -became necessary to fall back upon tradition derived from an old fellow and tutor of Caius College, Cambridge, who was lord of the manor, patron of ,the benefice, and owner of a great part of the parish.
