Lviemoirs of JOHN KNOX
GENEALOGICAL lVIEMOIRS OF JOHN KNOX AXIJ OF THE FAMILY OF KNOX BY THE REV. CHARLES ROGERS, LL.D. fF'.LLOW OF THE ROYAL HISTORICAL SOCIETY, FELLOW OF THE SOCIETY OF ANTIQUARIES OF SCOTLAXD, FELLOW OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF XORTHER-N A:NTIQ:;ARIES, COPENHAGEN; FELLOW OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF NEW SOCTH WALES, ASSOCIATE OF THE IMPRRIAL ARCIIAWLOGICAL SOCIETY OF Rl'SSIA, MEMBER OF THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF QL'EBEC, MEMBER OF THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF PENNSYLVANIA, A!'i'D CORRESPOXDING MEMBER OF THE HISTORICAL AND GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY OF NEW ENGLA:ND PREF ACE. ALL who love liberty and value Protestantism venerate the character of John Knox; no British Reformer is more entitled to the designation of illustrious. By three centuries he anticipated that parochial system of education which has lately become the law of England; by nearly half that period he set forth those principles of civil and religious liberty which culminated in a system of constitutional government. To him Englishmen are indebted for the Protestant character of their "Book of Common Prayer;" Scotsmen for a Reforma tion so thorough as permanently to resist the encroachments of an ever aggressive sacerdotalism. Knox belonged to a House ancient and respectable; but those bearing his name derive their chiefest lustre from 1eing connected with a race of which he was a member. The family annals presented in these pages reveal not a few of the members exhibiting vast intellectual capacity and moral worth. \Vhat follows is the result of wide research and a very extensive correspondence. So many have helped that a catalogue of them ,...-ould be cumbrous. -
St. Patrick's C of I, Gortin
1921 1982 2002 ST. PATRICK’S PARISH CHURCH, LOWER BADONEY, GORTIN Thanks to Hazel Robinson for patiently helping to decipher and make the gravestone recordings on our many journeys to this peaceful graveyard of our ancestors. Colour photographs by Ann Robinson. Black & White photograph courtesy of Ann Dark. © 2017 A.K. ROBINSON 2 ST. PATRICK’S PARISH CHURCH, LOWER BADONEY, GORTIN ST. PATRICK’S CHURCH OF IRELAND, PARISH OF LOWER BODONEY (BADONEY), GORTIN, CO. TYRONE. The Parish of Badoney was originally a very large parish, stretching up the Glenelly Valley, with the oldest church site in the townland of Glenroan. This church is also called St. Patrick and this part of the parish eventually became Upper Badoney. The parish of Badoney was separated into two parts in 1730 and the first church of Lower Badoney, St. Patrick’s, was built in the village of Gortin. It was not until 1774 that the parish of Lower Badoney was constituted. The two parts were reunited again in 1924. In 1856 a new church was built in Lower Badoney at a cost of £1,921-15-00. This is the current church and is on a slightly different site to the older one. For many years parts of the old church, and the school, could be seen in the graveyard. In 1939 the graveyard was measured by J.C.M. Knox, Londonderry. In the 1980s all signs of the old church were removed when the graveyard was “tidied up.” From the First edition of the Ordnance Survey Maps (1832-1846) the position of the first church can be seen, along with the school. -
William Reeves Bishop, Scholar, Antiquary
MEMORIAL DISCOURSE Trinity College Dublin Trinity Monday 24 May 1937 William Reeves Bishop, Scholar, Antiquary By John Ernest Leonard Oulton William Reeves was born at Charleville, Co. Cork, on St. Patrick’s Eve, 1815. The family of Reeves originally came from Dorset, but had long been settled in the South of Ireland. Several of its members were connected with the legal profession: William’s father, Boles D’Arcy Reeves was an attorney – “pragmaticus” he is styled in the Entrance Book; Sir William Reeves was attorney general in Ireland of King Charles I; and a more distant ancestor, Sir Thomas Reeves was an eminent ecclesiastical lawyer in the time of King James I. Incidentally, this Sir Thomas provides an instance of an author in the family, albeit of a somewhat peculiar kind, for he “rendered himself notorious by his literary efforts to represent St. Patrick as a myth, and the prevailing creed of Ireland a fable.” It has not, therefore, been left to modern days to spin strange theories concerning our national saint. On his mother’s side Reeves was also well connected. His grandfather was Captain Jonathan Bruce Roberts, who served during the whole of the War of Independence in America and fought at Bunker’s Hill in 1775. When his military career was over, Captain Roberts settled down in his native town of Charleville, and became as a man of peace a model of all that a country gentleman should be. It was in his house that William Reeves was born. Boles Reeves was a man of much originality and gifted with a store of wit and humour; and in this respect William certainly inherited something from his father, for he was always fond of a joke and much addicted, as were his contemporaries Dean Dickinson and Father Healy, to punning. -

Edward Baldwin John Knox moved to Ireland, and occupied roughly to lower 2/3 of South Africa in the 1870s. Oupa was his the current province of Leinster (see map grandson.

The Life and Work of Alexander Knox ( 1757
THE LIFE AND WORK OF ALEXANDER KNOX ( 1757 - 1831 ) BY GEORGE WYNNE HUGHES, B.A. (Wales), M.A.(Cantab). A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE DIVINITY FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOHIY 1937. ico! . I. PREFACE. The object of this thesis is an attempt to present a Life of Alexander Knox, and to give a resume and analysis of his theological teaching. Knox was a close and intimate friend of John Wesley, who exercised a profound influence upon him during the formative period of his life. Religiously and theologically, he owed much to his old teacher. To what extent was he indebted to Wesley ? Did he carry his teaching a stage further ? What was distinctive in his teach ing ? These are some of the questions to which an answer is attempted in this thesis. The last chapter is devoted to his relation to the Tractarian Movement. Knox is a connecting link between the two Oxford Movements, viz:- the Evangelical Revival of the eighteenth century, and the Anglican Renaissance of the nineteenth century. Whilst the latter was, in the main, a revival of institutional- ism, and, therefore apparently quite different from the former, yet there are fundamental points of agreement between them. They both emphasise the need for devotion, and the thirst for holiness. I do not set out to prove the extent to which the one influenced the pther through Knox. The last chapter makes II. no claim to be an exhaustive study. This subject is large enough for a separate piece of work. -
