History of Sevenoaks up to 1650 Sevenoaks Wills & Families before 1650 A hundred and thirty wills dated prior to 1650 are known to have survived for the parish of Sevenoaks; these are listed below. They have been used as source documents in the writing of: A History of Sevenoaks up to 1650 This document, which forms section 2 of that history, gives transcripts of many of these wills and details of the families where these can be deduced from the wills themselves, parish records or other sources. No Sevenoaks inventories have been found for this period. The transcripts are given in alphabetical order so that testators from the same family can be linked together. The wills are first listed in date order. The wills written in Latin have not been investigated nor have the wills of the Sackville-Wests since these mainly concern A.1 events outside Sevenoaks. The reference at the end of each line is used in some of the appendices to the history.. 1 2 3 P4 Sevenok, William 1432 PCC: Luffenam 16 not investigated P Mill, John 1460 PCC: Stokton 21 gent. written in Latin P Beal, John 1473 PCC: Wattys 8 will not found P Vaphopkyn, David 1474 PCC: Wattys 15 written in latin P Bone, Thomas 1487 PCC: Milles 1 bailiff written in Latin P Mugworthy, Thomas (Mr.) 1503 PCC: Blamyr 29 vicar mugsevP503 P Bedill, Walter 1508 PCC: Adeane 28 written in Latin P Gardyner, Henry (Essex) 1509 PCC: Bennett 20 not investigated P Newman, Peter 1510 PCC: Bennett 32 newsevX510 1 year will was proved 2 CKS - Centre for Kentish Studies, County Hall, Maidstone (01632 694363); PCC - reference to the probate copy held at the Family Records Centre, 1 Myddleton Street, London, EC1 RUW (0181 392 5300) 3 will reference; this starts with the first three letters of the testators’s surname and the first three letters of the testator’s parish (always “sev” here). The digits are the last three of the year in which the will was written (where this is known) whilst the date in column 3 is the year it was proved. The letter before the digits is A - artisan, C - citizen of London; G - gent (including Esq.), H - husbandman, O - other, T - tradesman, W - woman, X - unspecified, Y - yeoman.

Downame was also known for his role in publishing two of the most popular theological manuals: Sir Henry Finch’s The Summe of Sacred Divinitie (1620), which consisted of a much more expanded version of Finch’s earlier Sacred Doctrine (1613), and Archbishop James Ussher’s A Body of Divinitie (1645), which was published from rough manuscripts and without Ussher’s consent, having been intended for private use.2 Downame also had a role in codifying the Westminster annotations on the Bible, being one of a few city ministers to work on the project, though he never sat at the Westminster Assembly.3 Downame’s older brother, 1 Various historians from the seventeenth century to the present have spelled Downame’s name differently (either Downame or Downham). The majority of seventeenth century printed works, however, use “Downame.” I here follow that practice.

  • Swallowfield and Its Owners
    wm mKlm m T Gc 942.2902 Sw971r 1269002 GENEALOGY COLLECTION ALLEN COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRA 3 1833 00730 8387 Swallowfield and its Owners SWALLOWFIELD AND ITS OWNERS LADY RUSSELL WITH ILLUSTRATIONS LONGMANS, GREEN, AND CO. 39 PATERNOSTER ROW, LONDON NEW YORK AND BOMBAY G* c I9GI PREFACE The following pages are the result of my having for many years past, during much desultory reading, dotted down everything I have come across that in any way related to Swallowfield or its owners. ' pretend to no style is simply an ' olla podrida \I ; my work from innumerable sources, good, bad, and indifferent. Some- times the most important events are merely sketched in, and at other times I enter into minute details, which would be gene- rally considered quite unimportant and uninteresting. But I have written this solely for my own family and neighbours at Swallowfield, and have therefore included everything that I thought might interest them. It is possible that I may occasionally have drawn from various authors without acknowledging my indebtedness, and of these I must ask pardon. Had I ever contemplated the publication of my notes, I should have been careful to give all my authorities ; as it is, I much regret that in some cases it is now impossible for me to do so. I had intended that this little work should be revised and vi Swallowfield and its Owners put into shape by one who took a great interest in it, and whose criticisms and suggestions I should have valued more than any- other, but fate has ordered it otherwise ; so I now send it forth in all its crudity, knowing that those for whom it is written will not be critical, and will excuse its shortcomings.

  • Radical Republicanism in England, America, and the Imperial Atlantic, 1624-1661
    RADICAL REPUBLICANISM IN ENGLAND, AMERICA, AND THE IMPERIAL ATLANTIC, 1624-1661 by John Donoghue B.A., Westminster College, New Wilmington, PA, 1993 M.A., University of Pittsburgh, 1999 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2006 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Faculty of Arts and Sciences This dissertation was presented by John Donoghue It was defended on December 2, 2005 and approved by William Fusfield, Associate Professor, Department of Communication Janelle Greenberg, Professor, Department of History Jonathan Scott, Professor, Department of History Dissertation Director: Marcus Rediker, Professor, Department of History ii Copyright by John Donoghue 2006 iii RADICAL REPUBLICANISM IN ENGLAND, AMERICA, AND THE IMPERIAL ATLANTIC, 1624-1661 John Donoghue, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, April 30, 2006 This dissertation links the radical politics of the English Revolution to the history of puritan New England. It argues that antinomians, by rejecting traditional concepts of social authority, created divisive political factions within the godly party while it waged war against King Charles I. At the same time in New England, antinomians organized a political movement that called for a democratic commonwealth to limit the power of ministers and magistrates in religious and civil affairs. When this program collapsed in Massachusetts, hundreds of colonists returned to an Old England engulfed by civil war. Joining English antinomians, they became lay preachers in London, New Model Army soldiers, and influential supporters of the republican Levellers. This dissertation also connects the study of republican political thought to the labor history of the first British Empire.

  • The Westminster Confession of Faith
    CENTERPOINT SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH FALL 2016 The Westminster Confession of Faith (1) CONFESSIONS 1. “No Creed but the Bible!” – some contemporary problems that make the very idea of a Confession or Creed unnecessary at best and deeply suspicious at worst. a. History is bunk b. Language is slippery (“a word means what I say it means”) c. No other “church” can tell us what to believe. We are the church – period! d. Misgivings about theology – especially Systematic (formulaic) theology i. Inductive v. deductive Bible Study (top-down/Bottom-up) ii. Unity of truth – WHOLE Bible. Big picture v. little picture iii. Imposition of “foreign” grids (e.g. Aristotelian philosophy) e. “Doctrine” [noun: a belief or set of beliefs held and taught by a church, political party, or other group]; “Dogma” [noun: a principle or set of principles laid down by an authority as incontrovertibly true]. i. “Follow the pattern of the sound words that you have heard from me, in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus” (2 Tim. 1:13). Pattern = ὑποτύπωσις. KJV “the form of sound words.” Every discipline has its own set of specialist words. Paul does not simply say, “memorize the Old Testament.” ii. Phil 2:5-11 as a summary of basic Christology; iii. 1 Tim 3:16 “Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.” iv. 2 Thess. 2:15 “So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the traditions [παράδοσις] that you were taught by us, either by our spoken word or by our letter.” v.
