A Sunday service on 'Zoom' is held at 10.00am each Sunday mainly for the congregations of Mark's 'patch' – the parishes of Newton Poppleford, Harpford, Colaton Raleigh and Tipton St John with Venn Ottery – though anyone with internet access is welcome to join in.

Of course, this will have to follow the safety rules – hand sanitising on entry and exit, social distancing and wearing of face covering. No singing is permitted, so it won't be 'returning to normal' At present, chairs are set out at 2 metre distancing, so there is only space for some 20 people (depending on how many come as couples or family groups). You'll be welcomed if you do come, but please obey any instructions from the steward, and don't be disappointed if there is not enough room to fit you in safely. Colaton Raleigh Church is open for private prayer a couple of mornings a week – Tuesdays from 10.00am to 1.00pm, and Fridays from 2.00pm to 5.00pm – please respect the safety and distancing rules.

  • Devon Protestation Oaths
    Mortimers of Devon in the 1642 Protestation Oath Lists Research suggests that the Mortimers first settled in Devon in the 15th century or earlier. By 1523, the name had spread to 16 parishes and just 20 years later that number had grown to 19. By 1600, several branches of the Mortimer family had established themselves in Exeter, Devon’s capital. Over the following centuries Mortimers continued to move to Exeter. By the time of the first census in 1841, 87 Mortimers lived in Devon’s capital, out of 866 Mortimers who called Devon their home, more than any other county except Yorkshire. This document is intended to be a useful resource for genealogists but also Mortimer one name researchers. The history of the Devon Mortimer family is of interest due to their inheritance of a medieval name of great note during the middle ages, the Mortimer family of Wigmore being one of the great dynastic families of the age. Edmund Mortimer and Philippa Plantaganet, Countess of Ulster married in 1368 in Reading Abbey, with Edward IV, a great grandson of the above couple successfully claiming the throne for the house of York during the Wars of the Roses. The long line of Mortimer of Wigmore became extinct upon the death of young Earl Edmund Mortimer in 1425, but other branches survived, including Hugh Mortimer, who died fighting on the Lancastrian side in the Battle of Wakefield, 1460. One branch that survived past 1400 is of particular interest to Mortimer family researchers, the Mortimers of Attleborough, who were prosperous during the Late Middle Ages but then faded into obscurity after 1387, when most of the Mortimer estates were inherited by female co-heirs.
