INDEX CAPTAIN RICHARD MORE CAPTAIN RICHARD MORE July 25, day: Jacob Blakeway was baptized in Stanton Long Parish, just south of Shipton in Shropshire. 1588 Catharine More was born. The Mores of Shipton in Shropshire, England prided themselves that they were directly descended from King Malcolm III of Scotland (1058-1093), King Edward I of England, and King Henry II of England (died 1189). As early as the 12th Century, the family had been of recognized local importance on a moor near the Welsh border. By the 13th Century, the family held four manor houses on this moor and the head of the family as a constable of the crown of England was pledged to provide 200 soldiers and “carry in his own two hands” the English banner against the Welsh. By the 15th Century the timber-and- plaster family home near Shipton was being referred to as Larden Hall. The occupant of Larden Hall was termed the Lord of Larden. 1591 Samuel More was born.

  • The Maples Stories Trace the Decline and Fall of a Marriage, They Also Illumine a History in Many Ways Happy, of Growing Children and a Million Mundane Moments Shared
    Contents FOREWORD SNOWING IN GREENWICH VILLAGE WIFE-WOOING GIVING BLOOD TWIN BEDS IN ROME MARCHING THROUGH BOSTON THE TASTE OF METAL YOUR LOVER JUST CALLED WAITING UP EROS RAMPANT PLUMBING THE RED-HERRING THEORY SUBLIMATING NAKEDNESS SEPARATING GESTURING DIVORCING: A FRAGMENT HERE COME THE MAPLES GRANDPARENTING ACKNOWLEDGMENTS FOREWORD THE MAPLES PRESENTED themselves to the writer in New York City in 1956, dropped from his sight for seven years, and reappeared in the suburbs of Boston in 1963, giving blood. They figured in a dozen stories since, until the couple’s divorce in 1976. Their name, bestowed by a young man who had grown up in a small town shaded by Norway maples, and who then moved to the New England of sugar maples and flame-bright swamp maples, retained for him an arboreal innocence, a straightforward and cooling leafiness. Though the Maples stories trace the decline and fall of a marriage, they also illumine a history in many ways happy, of growing children and a million mundane moments shared. That a marriage ends is less than ideal; but all things end under heaven, and if temporality is held to be invalidating, then nothing real succeeds. The moral of these stories is that all blessings are mixed. Also, that people are incorrigibly themselves. The musical pattern, the advance and retreat, of the Maples’ duet is repeated over and over, ever more harshly transposed. They are shy, cheerful, and dissatisfied. They like one another, and are mysteries to one another. One of them is usually feeling slightly unwell, and the seesaw of their erotic interest rarely balances.
