I remain deeply in debt to the inspiration and mentorship of David Spring. Preface In this list cadet, associated, and stem families are arranged in a single entry when substantial property passed between one and the other providing continuity of parliamentary representation (even, as was the case in a few instances, when no blood or marriage relationship existed). Subsidiary/cadet families are usually grouped under the oldest, richest, or most influential stem family. Female MPs are counted with their birth families, or, if not born into a parliamentary family, with their husband’s family.

THE ^artsl) Registers OF &L jftlarp atoermarp, LONDON, CONTAINING THE Carriages, baptisms, an* burials PROM 1558 TO 1754. EDITED BY JOSEPH LEMUEL CHESTER, LL.D., EDITOR OF THE WESTMINSTER ABBEY REGISTERS, ETC. LONDON 1880, PREFACE. The Registers of St. Mary Alderniary are happily in a good state of preservation, and their contents are of the character usual with those of the old London parishes. Perhaps the most notable entry in them is that of the marriage of the poet Milton, 24 February, 1662-3, but a very large portion of them relate to the families of merchants and professional men who bore a more or less conspicuous part in the history of the City and of their times. It appears to have been the custom to make yearly lists of the inhabit- ants of the parish, with additional particulars as to their occupation, Eeligious faith, and the numbers of their respective families. Two of these lists, for the years 1733 and 1734, were transcribed into the Parish Register, and it has been thought best to reproduce them in this volume, on account of their value as illustrating the Register itself, and as furnish- ing details which do not appear elsewhere. They will be found on pages 235-238. On pages 231-234 will also be found three of the formal Renunciations of the Romish faith common to the period, which were also transcribed into the Register.

I purpose in these pages to give a simple line of narrative of the descendants of William James, following down through the different generations in the several branches, describing more or less minutely the character of persons whose names are well known to the public, having figured in their day, prominently before the world, and achieved more or less success upon the field of human endeavor, and also, shall speak of many others, less conspicuous, humble yet earnest individuals, of different generations; though I fail to do them the fullest justice. It is but a token of love and grateful acknowledgment of the noble deeds of our progenitors to take their names from the perishing records of the present, and place them in durable form for affectionate remembrance as fragrant family memorials.

Bibliography 288. 111 Abstract During the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries many thousands of Englishmen embarked on the tour of Europe in order to complete their education and add a final gloss of sophistication to their manners. Despite the popularity of the practice, educational travel attracted a great deal of public comment and criticism. Various images of the educational traveller, all essentially negative, became extremely popular in early modern England. Rather than a study of English travellers abroad, my thesis examines these public images of educational travellers, their development and popularity, and the fears and prejudices within English society that engendered and sustained them.
