The present baronet is the second (but eldest surviving) son of Dr. James Vaughan, many years an eminent physician at Leicester j who married Hester, second daughter of the late alderman Smalley of Leicester by the sister of sir William Halford, bart. uncle to the late sir Charles. By the will of the last baronet, the property at Wistow (after the decease of the countess dowager of Denbigh) is vested in the present baronet and his heirs. See vol.

  • George Abbot 1562-1633 Archbishop of Canterbury
    English book owners in the seventeenth century: a work in progress listing How much do we really know about patterns and impacts of book ownership in Britain in the seventeenth century? How well equipped are we to answer questions such as the following?: • What was a typical private library, in terms of size and content, in the seventeenth century? • How does the answer to that question vary according to occupation, social status, etc? • How does the answer vary over time? – how different are ownership patterns in the middle of the century from those of the beginning, and how different are they again at the end? Having sound answers to these questions will contribute significantly to our understanding of print culture and the history of the book more widely during this period. Our current state of knowledge is both imperfect, and fragmented. There is no directory or comprehensive reference source on seventeenth-century British book owners, although there are numerous studies of individual collectors. There are well-known names who are regularly cited in this context – Cotton, Dering, Pepys – and accepted wisdom as to collections which were particularly interesting or outstanding, but there is much in this area that deserves to be challenged. Private Libraries in Renaissance England and Books in Cambridge Inventories have developed a more comprehensive approach to a particular (academic) kind of owner, but they are largely focused on the sixteenth century. Sears Jayne, Library Catalogues of the English Renaissance, extends coverage to 1640, based on book lists found in a variety of manuscript sources. The Cambridge History of Libraries in Britain and Ireland (2006) contains much relevant information in this field, summarising existing scholarship, and references to this have been included in individual entries below where appropriate.

G. COTTON MINCHIN < " " Author of Old Harrow Dayt", Tht Growth of Freedom in the Balkan Peninsula" LONDON: SWAN SONNENSCHEIN & Co., LIMITED PATERNOSTER SQUARE 1901 TO MY ESPECIAL THREE. PREFACE. FEW things in the perusal of biographies have struck me more than the manner in which the influence of the school and its surroundings on the subject of the biography, who spent his boyhood there, has been ignored. Until the publication of the School Registers of Charterhouse, Eton, Harrow, Merchant Taylors', Rugby, St. Paul's, Westminster, and Winchester (all excellent, though some are pre-eminently so), it was sometimes more than difficult to trace the school of a statesman or author. As few of the Registers go back to the seventeenth century, it is not even now easy to locate the school of some distinguished men, who are said to have been at public schools during the seventeenth or early part of the eighteenth century. Sir Francis Dashwood (Chancellor of the Exchequer) is an instance in point, though I have satisfied myself that he was a Commoner at Winchester.

  • A History of Dunster and of the Families of Mohun & Luttrell
    A HISTORY OF D UNST ER A HISTORY OF D U N ST E R AND OF THE FAMILIES OF MOHUN ^ LUTTRELL BY SIR H.C.MAXWELL LYTE,K.C.B. Deputy Keeper of the Records. PART II I L L us T RA TED LONDON THE ST. CATHERINE PRESS LTD 8 YORK BUILDINGS, ADELPHI 1909 t^ CHAPTER X. The topography of Dunster, The station of the Great Western Railway bearing the name of ' Dunster ' is actually in the parish of Carhampton. A little to the south of it stands Marsh Bridge, formerly of some importance as situate on the road between the Haven, or sea-port, of Dunster and the town. It was reckoned to be in Dunster, and in the middle ages the commonalty of that borough was responsible for its maintenance. ^ Higher Marsh, now a farmhouse close by, seems to occupy the site of Marsh Place, the cradle of the Stewkleys, who eventually became rich and migrated to Hinton Ampner in Hampshire. Further south are several scattered houses, dignified collectively by the name of Marsh Street. There were formerly two public approaches to the town of Dunster from the north. One of these, known in the fourteenth century as Brook Lane, diverged from the highroad between Carhampton and Minehead at the western end of Loxhole Bridge, formerly Brooklanefoot Bridge, which spans the river that there divides the parishes of Carhampton and Dunster. ^ The other, skirting round the eastern side of Conigar, was a southern continuation of Marsh Street, and was anciently known as St. Thomas's Street, ' D.C.M.
