Studies PREFACE. Staffordshire T he following is a copy of the Report presented to the Dean and Chapter of Lichfield in 1883, omitting certain paragraphs relative to suggested arrangement of the manuscripts, and provision for their perusal:— “ To the Very Eev. the Dean and the Canons Residentiary of the Cathedral Church of Lichfield. “ Gentlemen, “ I have the honour herewith to submit to you a rough MS. Catalogue of the Muniments of your Cathedral Church. “ So far as previous Catalogues or Indexes are concerned, I have found— 1. A list of Evidences and Charters, then in the custody of the Sacrist, of 14tli century date, written in a slovenly way on an irregular shaped slip of parchment. About two-tliirds of those therein mentioned seem to be now extant. SampleCounty “ 2. Traces on the indorsements of Deeds, both by letters and numerals, of a tolerably comprehensive arrangement of the Muniments circa 1675. “ 3. An 18th century separation of a large number of docu­ ments into bundles, though on what principle it is difficult to surmise. “ 4. A very cursory and imperfect return, or ‘ Index/ on two sheets of foolscap, returned to the chairman of the Parliamentary Record Commission of 1800. Studies “ 5. The beginning of a systematic cataloguing by the Right Rev. Bishop Hobhouse, 1877-9, as partly shown by indorsements in his own handwriting on some of the earlier documents, and partly by papers which the Bishop most kindly handed over to me when leaving Lichfield, and which have been of service to me in compiling this Catalogue. “ The present Muniment Room of the Cathedral Church was the upper part of the ancient Sacristy, or ‘ Martilogiumn as it was locally termed. For the maintenance and repair of this part of the structure there were separate endowments, and an account was kept 1 See note, p. 220. o CONTENTS. LITIGATION.

    Deanery News April 2019 Your Bi-monthly Newsletter Dear all It is good to hear how people are keeping Lent and preparing for our Easter and Pentecost celebrations in a variety of ways. Do please have a look through the newsletter at the things that have happened and that are going on. We always welcome news and updates, so please keep sending them to Debbie at [email protected] who you can also email to subscribe to this newsletter if you don’t already (or unsubscribe if you want to). Our new Bishop of Derby, Rt Rev Libby Lane, is also preparing to fully take up her post. She will be installed at Derby Cathedral on Saturday 25th at 2.30pm. Everyone is very welcome to attend. Bishop Libby is then planning to visit each of the Deaneries, to meet a wide range of people and to pray with them. She will be visiting Mercia Deanery on Wednesday 5th June, as part of which she will be speaking at our Deanery Thy Kingdom Come service, which will be hosted by St Mark’s Winshill starting at 7:45pm. Again, everyone is very welcome. At our recent Deanery Synod meeting, we thought about the Church of England’s programme of change, Setting God’s People Free. This is designed to “enable the whole people of God to live out the Good News of Jesus confidently in all of life, Sunday to Saturday.” There is more information and some practical tips at https:// www.churchofengland.org/SGPF In the light of this, we examined our Deanery priorities, which we agreed should be: 1.

  • The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575
    The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575 Elizabeth Murray A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts United Faculty of Theology The Melbourne College of Divinity October, 2007 Abstract Most English Reformation studies have been about the far north or the wealthier south-east. The poorer areas of the midlands and west have been largely passed over as less well-documented and thus less interesting. This thesis studying the north of the county of Shropshire demonstrates that the generally accepted model of the change from Roman Catholic to English Reformed worship does not adequately describe the experience of parishioners in that county. Acknowledgements I am grateful to Dr Craig D’Alton for his constant support and guidance as my supervisor. Thanks to Dr Dolly Mackinnon for introducing me to historical soundscapes with enthusiasm. Thanks also to the members of the Medieval Early Modern History Cohort for acting as a sounding board for ideas and for their assistance in transcribing the manuscripts in palaeography workshops. I wish to acknowledge the valuable assistance of various Shropshire and Staffordshire clergy, the staff of the Lichfield Heritage Centre and Lichfield Cathedral for permission to photograph churches and church plate. Thanks also to the Victoria & Albert Museum for access to their textiles collection. The staff at the Shropshire Archives, Shrewsbury were very helpful, as were the staff of the State Library of Victoria who retrieved all the volumes of the Transactions of the Shropshire Archaeological Society. I very much appreciate the ongoing support and love of my family.

  • Deanery News February 2019 Your Bi-Monthly Newsletter
    Deanery News February 2019 Your Bi-monthly Newsletter Dear All, It has been encouraging to read about some of the many things that our Deanery churches have been up to over Christmas and into the New Year. Do please have a look, and see if there is anything that inspires you for next Christmas! A great way to start this year was with the licensing by the Archdeacon of Derby of Rev Charles Jefferson to be Interim Minister of the parishes of the Seales benefice and the Trent United group of parishes. Charles is working with the nine parishes for the next couple of years to help them discern how best they can sustain the mission and ministry of the Church in the area, so that they can flourish. It has been great to welcome Charles and do please remember him in your prayers. It was also very encouraging to be able to help represent the Deanery at the presentation of Bishop Libby to the diocese. The Area Deans, along with the Archdeacons, the Director of Mission and Ministry, and Bishop Jan have been working hard to give Bishop Libby a clear picture of the diocese so that she is able to quickly make a start on setting the future direction of the diocese. Do please pray for her and her family as they prepare for the move to Derbyshire. There are a great many training opportunities that are available in the next few months, so do please have a look as there may very well be something that will help support you in your role, or that you might be interested in.

Ibowe Beinrose, Ikt., ®.H)., THE PATRON OF DERBYSHIRE LITERATURE, THIS REGISTER OF DERBY SCHOOL IS MOST RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED, AS A SLIGHT ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF HIS GENIAL ENCOURAGEMENT AND INVALUABLE ASSISTANCE DURING ITS COMPILATION. ^ PREFACE. ,__ NO work is more suited to perpetuate the fame and traditions of an ancient scliool, and to foster the spirit of brother- hood among the succeeding generations of its alumni, than a Register recording the proud distinctions or the humble achievements of those who have had the honour of belonging to it. To do this, effectually a register ought to be complete in all its parts, from the first clay the school opened its doors ; and it is evident that such a work could only be the result of a continuous purpose, coeval with the school itself. Unfortunately that task has been deferred from century to century, and has become harder in proportion to its long post- ponement. But is this a. reason why it should not at length be attempted? As the usefulness, or, to speak more correctly, the necessity of such an undertaking has in these latter times become more and more apparent at Derby School, and as procrastination only makes matters worse, the editor decided some years ago to face the difficulty and see what could be done.
