  • Sir Robert Throckmorton (1510-1581)
    Sir Robert Throckmorton (1510-1581) William Norwood, Dorothy Spann CENTER's eighth great grandfather and father of Richard Norwood appearing in the lower right in the tree for Captain Richard Spann, was the son of Henry Norwood and Catherine Thockmorton. Catherine Thockmorton was the daughter of Robert Thockmorton and Muriel Berkeley. Sir Robert Thockmorton: Birth: 1510 Alcester; Warwickshire, England Death: Feb. 12, 1581 Alcester; Warwickshire, England St Peters Church, Coughton, Warwickshire, England where he is buried. Sir Robert Throckmorton of Coughton Court, was a distinguished English Tudor courtier. Sir Robert was the eldest son and heir of Sir George Throckmorton (d.1552) by Katherine Vaux, daughter of Nicholas Vaux, 1st Baron Vaux of Harrowden (d.1523). He had many brothers, the most notable being, in descending seniority: Sir Kenelm, Sir Clement Throckmorton MP, Sir Nicholas Throckmorton(1515-1571), Thomas, Sir John Throckmorton(1524-1580), Anthony and George. Robert Throckmorton may have trained at the Middle Temple, the inn attended by his father. At least three of his younger brothers and his own eldest son studied at Middle Temple, but as the heir to extensive estates he had little need to seek a career at court or in government. He was joined with his father in several stewardships from 1527 and was perhaps the servant of Robert Tyrwhitt, a distant relative by marriage of the Throckmortons, who in 1540 took an inventory of Cromwell's goods at Mortlake. He attended the reception of Anne of Cleves and with several of his brothers served in the French war of 1544. Three years later he was placed on the Warwickshire bench and in 1553 was appointed High Sheriff of Warwickshire.

  • The Church That Is Now Bristol Cathedral Was Originally An
    Bristol Cathedral – architectural overview Jon Cannon – Keeper of the Fabric Overview This paper briefly sets out the history of Bristol Cathedral, by summarising the key events and figures which have shaped its past, and by identifying the main architectural and artistic features of interest. Bristol cathedral is the seat of the bishop of Bristol and the heart of a diocese which, today, includes Bristol, and much of south Gloucestershire and northern Wiltshire, including Swindon. It stands on a site which has been sacred for a thousand years or more. Ancient origins The cathedral originated as an abbey on the edge of what was, in the twelfth century, a prosperous and growing merchant town. The knoll on which it stands appears to already have already been the site of a holy place: the cult of St Jordan, the legend of which, only attested in the fourteenth century, takes the story of site back to St Augustine of Canterbury and the earliest days of English Christianity, and the survival of a magnificent eleventh-century sculpted stone, now in the cathedral, is proof that a church of some kind predated the abbey. Foundation of the abbey began in 1140. Large portions of the resulting church – especially the remarkable chapter house -- survive to this day. The monastery was a daughter house of the Augustinian abbey of St- Victor in Paris though almost nothing is known of its earliest canons. For the next four hundred years it was, while never of dominant significance in the town, by some distance its largest religious institution, as well as being the most important Victorine house in England (and one of the wealthiest Augustinian houses of any kind).

It was more than 100 years before they could bury their dead elsewhere and thus persons dying outside London had to be transported there. Further reading: Honeybourne. 1079 Jews try to It seems that five Jews attempted to come to Ireland come to but, despite bearing gifts for the King of Munster, Ireland2 were repulsed. c.1093 Disputation Much anti-Jewish disputational literature was written between a in the eleventh and twelfth centuries. They were Christian generally written in the form of a dialogue between (Gilbert a Christian (the author) and a fictitious Jew and Crispin) and essentially dealt with matters that were important to a Jew3 Christians at that time, including what should be the relationship between Christians and Jews. One of the most important of such works was the Disputatio Judei et Christiani by Gilbert Crispin, who was Abbot of Westminster from 1085 to 1117. It is unusual in that it allows the Jew (who it is thought was a real person although what he actually said was presum- ably reworded by Crispin) a lot of space and includes a comprehensive Jewish critique of Christianity. R. Langham, The Jews in Britain © Raphael Langham 2005 8 The Jews in Britain William of Malmesbury mentions this disputation in his History of the Kings of England implying it was a real not a fictitious Jew. He writes: They were encouraged to dispute with our bishops, because the king had said – in jest, I suppose – that if they refuted the Christians by clear proofs and beat them, he would become a Jew himself.
