RHODA(AXTELL) CORY (177 5-1865) ERRATA, Cory Geneal. (E7.C82) r. !I, 75. Maryl. Withington m. 'Ihomas~ Danforth .in New Eng. having emigrated in 1654. (See Danforth GeneLl.,-p.18) m.w.f. 1939 THE AXTELL LINEAGE THO MAS1 AXTELL was the third son in the family of William Axtell, born in Berkhamstead, Hertfordshire, England. When a few months old he was baptized at St. Peter's Church there on January 26, 1619. As his father had died and was buried on May 23, 1638, he had not reached his majority. By his father's will he was remem­ bered by a bequest of ten shillings. While yet under age he mar­ ried his wife there, as indicated by the birth of his first child, the year being 1639. Their marriage is not recorded in the Hertfordshire parish register, which obliterates any attempt to discover the identity of his wife. His mother's Christain name was Thomasin, but unfortunately there is no record to tell whose daughter she was. He had brothers, John, baptized August 11, 1614; William, December 1, 1616; Dan­ iel, May 26, 1622; Samuel, December 15, 1624 and a sister Sarah, June 20, 1628. His brother Daniel who, as one of the regicides, took an active part against King Charles I., and during the King's trial held an office in the Parliament that condemned him to death. He also was a colonel in the army of Oliver Cromwell. After the restoratio~ of Charles II., in 1660, he was beheaded. ..., Their father was a burgomaster, as shown by a list of chief bur­ gesses of Berkhamstead in 1628, and was also a common clerk at the time of his death. The father had a brother Henry, as mentioned in his will, dated November 20, 1637, but nowhere does the name ap­ pear in the family of William Axtell and his wife Dorothy Symonds, as we supposed that they were their parents. The burgomaster, as he terms himself in his will probated on June 1, 1638, was probably the one in the family baptized on October 31, 1624. He names his wife Thomasin to assume charge of his estate as executrix. By an abstract of his will we find that he gave his wife: The house wherein I now dwell, and lands (specified), until my son William Axtell is 21 (years old), with reversion to (the) said William Axtell, on condition that he pay(s) to my daughter Sarah Axtell £60 when she is 18, and if she die(s) before the payment of the said sum (is made), then my son William Axtell (is) to pay (the sum of) £50 ( which is) to be equally divided between my two younger sons, Daniel and Samuel Axtell; ( to son William Axtell vari- 2 THE AXTELL LINEAGE ous household goods specified; to son Daniell Axtell) a tenement, where Richard Andrews now lives, with a backside and close ·called Spittletree Close, containing 3 acres, with (the) proviso that my wife Thomasin hold(s) them till he attain(s the age of) 24 years, (and also various household goods specified; to wife Thomasin), the tene­ ment where Thomas Adams now dwells, until my son Samuel at­ tain (s the age of) 24 years, (and the reversion is to the said Samuel £40 and various household goods specified; to daughter Sarah Axtell household goods specified; to eldest son John Axtell), 1 acre of land, which I bought from Nicholas Gosham, (and twenty pounds in money and various household goods specified, and to son Thomas Axtell ten shillings). Perhaps about a year after the birth of Thomas' second child, he brought his family with him to America and located in Sudbury, Mass.. In October of 1643, he bought a small tract of land. It is apparent that he possessed some means more than his father's will called for. It may account for th,e fact that there was no need for an adequate provision made for him in the will. One writer identifies him, in Hotten' s ''Original Lists of Emi­ grants to America," with ''Tho. Axtell, aged 35,'' whose name ap­ pears in the list of passengers on the Globe of London, which was clear­ ed· at London on August 7, 1635. The age itself obviously refutes the identification, as our Thomas was much younger. 1'he older Thomas was among one hundred and sixty-one passengers bound for Virginia, who had, before leaving, taken the "Oaths of Alleg(iance) and Supremacie." He probably belonged in one of the families at Middlessex county, near London, and possibly was a kin of the younger Thomas. There was a Nathaniel Axtell who had lived in New Haven, but left in 1640 with the intention of going back home to London. However, death overtook him before he could take ship at Boston for England. In his will, dated August 17, 1639, he mentions him­ self as a citizen, "late of t~e parish of St. Peter's, ne(a)re the Bur­ rough of St. Albans, in the county of Hertford,'' and · names two brothers Thomas and Daniel, and three sisters Joan, Ann and Sarah. It seems to indicate that he and Thomas were closely related-per­ haps brothers. By an examination of the old records in the county of Hertford it does not establish that Thomas' father had such daugh­ ters as Joan and Ann in his family. Nathaniel may be a kin of Na­ thaniel Axtell, of Shenley, Hertfordshire, who died in 1625, as in both their wills the name of Thomas Buckingham appears. Mr. Buckingham was a witness, as appears in the will of elder Nathaniel, and was a beneficiary in the younger -Nathaniel's will by receiving from him, ten pounds. CORRECTION for.Cory Geneal.

THE AXTELL LINEAGE 3 Knowing that some of rI'homas' hometown people had settled in Sudbury, he brought his family there so as to feel at home among them. Here in 1644 a daughter came to increase his family. He took the oath of fidelity on July 9, 1645. He probably was not constitutionally strong as, in the next year, at the age of twenty­ seven, he went the way of his fathers on the eighth of March. Recognizing that his days were being numbered: He expressed (his desire) that Mary, his wife, should have all his estate (in order) to bring up his children, (as) Testified by Edmund Rice, uppon Oath, the 6, 3, (May), 1646, before the Governor & deputy &c., & Increase Nowel, Secret (ary ). Of the five present cemeteries within the town limits the one in East Sudbury, now Wayland, is the first burying place. It is on the site of the first Meeting-house, which was built before 1645, and near this house the burial place was soon started. ~_hether Thomas was buried there, or just over the hill to the north where tradition states was an ancient Indian graveyard, there in no record to inform us. The Inventory of the goods of Thomas Axtell, of Sudbury, late­ (ly) Deceased, (was probated). - lmprimis, his land and house ( were) appraised at £8: 10; cattle (at) £8: 10; wearing apparell and bedding, with his Armes, (at) £10, (and) Brasse and Pewter (at) £5. It may appear strange that his real estate and two or more of his cattle should be valued at the same rate. In those days a cow was very valuable, therefore being rated very high. It seems that his homestead, consisting of six acres and a dwelling house, was in the southern part of the town. Soon after the inven­ tory it was bought by Edmund Rice who had known Thomas and came there ahead of him from the same town-Berkhamstead. He also bought a house and nine-acre land adjacent to the "Axtell place." According to Savage and others, it seems that Thomas' widow kept her fatherless children together until her widowhood was termi­ nated by her marriage ten years later to John Goodenow, but in the light of further data collected by a U rah family compiler, she '"'·as married to John Maynard on June 14, 1646. Besides her own chil­ dren by T"homas Axtell, she became the mother of Maynard's chil­ dren-a son and three daughters. By this union they beca1ne the ancestors of the famous President Brigham Young, of the Utah Mor­ mons. It was her oldest Axtell daughter Mary who was married to John Goodenow, at Sudbury, Mass., on September 19, 1656. Edmund Rice, who is mentioned as having taken charge of the es­ tate of Thomas in behalf of the latter's wife and children, came from 4 THE AXTELL LINEAGE Berkhamstead. He had also lived in Stanstead, Suffolk, England, before going there about 1627. Because of his administrating the es­ tate, there is an iota of suspicion that he was the father of Thomas' wife. Of the children in his family he had Mary, who was his oldest child, baptized in Stanstead, August 23, 1619.

Typographical errors have been corrected and comments on the original articles are shown in bold within square brackets.] Important colour notes for modellers, this month considering Parliamentary infantry, by Charles Kightly and Anthony Barton. During the Civil Wars there were no regimental colours as such, each company of an infantry regiment having its own. A full strength regiment, therefore, might have as many as ten, one each for the colonel's company, lieutenant-colonel's company, major's company, first, second, third captain's company etc. All the standards of the regiment were of the same basic colour, with a system of differencing which followed one of three patterns, as follows. In most cases the colonel's colour was a plain standard in the regimental colour (B1), sometimes with 2 a motto (A1). All the rest, however, had in their top left hand corner a canton with a cross of St. George in red on white; lieutenant-colonels' colours bore this canton and no other device. In the system most commonly followed by both sides (pattern 1) the major's colour had a 'flame' or 'stream blazant' emerging from the bottom right hand corner of the St. George (A3), while the first captain's company bore one device, the second captain's two devices, and so on for as many colours as there were companies.

  • II. Notes on the Life of Thomas Hainborowe, Officer in the Army and Navy in the Service of the Parliament of England
    II. Notes on the Life of Thomas Hainborowe, Officer in the Army and Navy in the service of the Parliament of England. By EDWARD PEACOCK, Esq. E.S.A. Eead December 14, 1876. THE want of a really good biographical dictionary of Englishmen is, perhaps, more felt by those whose vocation it is to investigate the details of the great civil war of the seventeenth century than by students of any other class. The fame of three or four of the leading spirits of the time has eclipsed in the common memory almost all the other people who took an important part in the struggle between Charles the First and his Parliament. Such must be in a great degree the case whenever the dramatic interest of the story centres in the actions of one commanding intellect or the misfortunes and errors of a single sufferer ; but there is, we believe, no other great crisis in modern history where the less known have been permitted to remain so entirely unknown as the time of which we speak. Thomas Rainborowe, or, as printed books commonly give his name, Rains- borough, has not found his way into our biographical literature, and in the popular histories of the period there is little recorded concerning him save his tragic death. Yet his was a well-known name to contemporaries, and evidence survives to prove that he was one of the most active and energetic of the officers in the service of the Long Parliament; and, furthermore, that, when the split had taken place between the Presbyterians and Independents, he was regarded, alike by foes and allies, as one of the most important members of the latter party.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION This volume publishes the papers and correspondence of the Hotham family during the civil wars and interregnum. The head of the family and first baronet, Sir John Hotham, is well known in the national narrative because of his critical role in denying the king entry to Hull on 23 April 1642. This episode ignited much contemporary controversy, raising the stakes in a pamphlet war between the king and his parliamentary opponents, and making armed conflict far more likely. It has attracted considerable attention from constitutional historians who have debated its legal ramifications, while political and military historians have recognized that the king’s failure to seize the large arms magazine at Hull badly undermined the royalist war effort. Yet, despite their national importance in 1642, the Hotham family’s papers have only rarely been utilized by academics. Late twentieth-century historians such as J.T. Cliffe, Barbara English, and Peter Roebuck drew upon the collection to inform their work on the wider theme of Yorkshire gentry landowners,1 but few others have been to Hull to access the archive. This also reflects a relative neglect of northern England in civil war historiography. There has been no biography of either of the Hothams, and their most recent family histories date from as long ago as the First World War. 2 This is unfortunate, because Sir John Hotham and his eldest son were extremely colourful and enigmatic figures, whose letters reveal much about the cultural attitudes of the English gentry in the 1640s. This volume seeks to redress this imbalance and restore the centrality of the Hotham family to the parliamentary cause.

  • Religion and the Battlefield in the First English Civil War (1642–1646): Instructing Soldiers and Dehumanising Enemies
    Faculty of Arts University of Helsinki RELIGION AND THE BATTLEFIELD IN THE FIRST ENGLISH CIVIL WAR (1642–1646): INSTRUCTING SOLDIERS AND DEHUMANISING ENEMIES Antti Taipale DOCTORAL DISSERTATION To be presented for public discussion with the permission of the Faculty of Arts of the University of Helsinki, in Festive Hall, Language Centre, on the 3rd of June, 2021 at 4 o’clock. Helsinki 2021 Copyright © Antti Taipale 2021 ISBN 978-951-51-7306-5 (pbk.) ISBN 978-951-51-7307-2 (PDF) Unigrafia Helsinki 2021 ABSTRACT This thesis examines how religious arguments, concepts and viewpoints were used as instruments to instruct soldiers and dehumanise enemies in the first English Civil War (1642-1646). I argue that religion had an important role in encouraging soldiers, enforcing military discipline and creating group cohesion and comradery. Furthermore, I suggest that religion was used to delegitimise the enemy and thus prepare the soldiers to fight their fellow countrymen in an efficient and bloody manner. The differences between the ways in which the King and Parliament understood religious warfare form the main argument of the thesis. The Royalist ministers and Puritan preachers had quite opposite views on the use of religion as a tool of war. Whereas the King’s clergymen underlined peaceful aspects of the Christian faith and merciful and compromising attitudes of its practitioners, the Parliamentarian chaplains thundered harsh words and black-and-white images of an eschatological battle between God and the anti-Christ, which left room for neither peace nor compromise. The Royalists took the nation’s sins on their shoulders, accepting God’s wrath and judgement and praying for the calamities to end with the passive submission of a martyr.

  • Hougham, Lincolnshire
    HOUGHAM Hougham is situated 8 miles NNW of Grantham and is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. Lord Brundenell enclosed the manor in the 1590’s. Enclosure reduced the number of ploughs and crop output for example at Laceby near Cleethorpes the number of ploughs was reduced from 27 to 3 and corn output consequently fell by 1800 quarters. In the 1630’s large numbers of French and Belgian refugees settled in Lincolnshire which caused local wage rates to fall. In 1631 Gervase Markham said Lincolnshire cattle were esteemed above all other for labour and draught. He also noted that the sheep were extremely coarse. Sheep rearing was so profitable that larger amounts of land were enclosed and arable land turned into pasture with ensuing depopulation. At Horncastle 471 acres were enclosed which caused the eviction of 41 people. Prices rose more rapidly than wages so real incomes declined. Rents doubled during this period forcing those tenants who could not pay off their land and land prices went up. Even during the worse years of the Civil War there were enclosure riots in the county. Women often took a prominent part in consequence of a popular belief that women were lawless and not subject to the laws of the realm as men are. Like the villagers of Carlby the people of Hougham had to take the Protestation Oath which they did on the 20th February 1642. Below is a list of the villagers who signed the Protestation: William Avery John Habdy Christopher Peerse John Barrows Richard Habdy Robert Peerse Anthony Benskin Richard Hambrook William Peerse
