COMMUNICATED BY E. M. DEWING, ESQ., HON. SEC. The paper upon Lavenham Church bad already passed through. the press, when I stumbled upon a . reference to a MS. preserved in the Library of the Society of. Antiquaries, Burlington House, London, containing a record of the 'De Vere coats of arms-as .they existed in •the year 1594. UPon calling the attention of the Rev. Henry Elliot to this 111S.he : most kindly volunteered to make a 'Copyof it, and he suggested•that it should be -printed as an appendix to the Lavenham paper. The record is more extensive and complete than that given by Sir John Blois, which•has been printed at pp. 120-124 of this volume it is a smalloctavo,and • is cataloguedNo. 4 in the Libr.aryof the Society. • The arms are tricked on:folios43-70, four on each . .page,.except on folio.69,.where there are three, and on folio70, where a coat Quarterly of 18 is given.

A complex web of personal associations and informal alliances underpinned politics and governance in Tudor England; but whereas a great deal is now understood about relations between both the political elite and the organs of government at the centre of affairs, many questions still remain unanswered about how networks of political actors functioned at a provincial and neighbourhood level, and how these networks kept in touch with one another, central government and the court.

    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL THE EARLY CAREER OF THOMAS, LORD HOWARD, EARL OF SURREY AND THIRD DUKE OF NORFOLK, 1474—c. 1525 being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Hull by Susan Elisabeth Vokes, B.A. September, 1988 Acknowledgements I should like to thank the University of Hull for my postgraduate scholarship, and the Institute of Historical Research and Eliot College, the Universiy of Kent, for providing excellent facilities in recent years. I am especially grateful to the Duke of Norfolk and his archivists for giving me access to material in his possession. The staff of many other archives and libraries have been extremely helpful in answering detailed enquiries and helping me to locate documents, and / regret that it is not possible to acknowledge them individually. I am grateful to my supervisor, Peter Heath, for his patience, understanding and willingness to read endless drafts over the years in which this study has evolved. Others, too, have contributed much. Members of the Russell/Starkey seminar group at the Institute of Historical Research, and the Late Medieval seminar group at the University of Kent made helpful comments on a paper, and I have benefitted from suggestions, discussion, references and encouragement from many others, particularly: Neil Samman, Maria Dowling, Peter Gwynn, George Bernard, Greg Walker and Diarmaid MacCulloch. I am particularly grateful to several people who took the trouble to read and comment on drafts of various chapters. Margaret Condon and Anne Crawford commented on a draft of the first chapter, Carole Rawcliffe and Linda Clerk on my analysis of Norfolk's estate accounts, Steven Ellis on my chapters on Surrey in Ireland and in the north of England, and Roger Virgoe on much of the thesis, including all the East Anglian material.

  • George Neville, Duke of Bedford 1465-83
    What might have been: I George Neville,Duke of Bedford 1465-83 — his identityand significance M. A. HICKS GEORGE NEVILLE, Duke of Bedford was a major figure in Yorkist England and bulked especially large in the career of his cousin Richard, Duke of Gloucester, yet he has been sadly neglected and has attracted no biographer. This is hardly surprising, since he died still under age. His three known actions — birth, betrothal and death — are not the stuff of which biography is made. George was a pawn in the schemes of others and never devised his own. What qualified him even to be a pawn was his pedigree, which was a potent fact of politics. It was who he was, not what he did, that mattered. An earlier article has considered him from the angle of Richard, Duke of Gloucester. This paper focuses on him personally and establishes his identity and significance. george Neville was born on the feast of St. Peter’s Chair, 22 February 1465, the only son among the six children of John Neville and his wife Isobel Ingoldsthorpe. John Neville was the second son of Richard Neville (d. 1460) and Alice Montagu (d.l462), Earl and Countess of Salisbury, the brother of Richard, Earl of Warwick and Salisbury (d.l47l) — Warwick the Kingmaker — and George, Archbishop of York (d.l476). Created Lord Montagu in 1461, John Neville was Earl of Northumberland at George’s birth. Isobel was the daughter of Sir Edmund Ingoldsthorpe and Joan Tiptoft, one of the three sisters of John Tiptoft, Earl of Worcester (d.

  • Carisbrooke Castle and the Lords of the Isle of Wight
    Carisbrooke Castle and the Lords of the Isle of Wight by C. B. R. BUTCHART HE Battle Abbey Roll records the name of one' Riuers' as having served at the Battle of Hastings in William the Conqueror's army. This may possibly have been Richard Tde Redvers.1 In the Domesday Book under the years 1084 and 1086 this knight is found holding land at Mosterton in Dorset.2 Richard de Redvers was one of the five barons who sided in 1090 with Prince Henry against his brother Robert in a contest for the crown. When Henry came to the Throne as King Henry I in 1100, Richard was rewarded for his loyal services. He was given the town of Tiverton, the Honour of Plympton and created Earl of Devon and Lord of the Isle of Wight. With the lordship of the Isle of Wight came Carisbr oke Castle. This castle had fallen to the Crown in 1078, having been forfeited for rebellion by Roger Fitz Osberne to whose father, William Fitz Osberne, William the Conqueror had granted it. The castle at this period was a ' motte and bailey' castle with defences of earth and wood. Richard de Redvers began to replace the wooden stockade, which formed the enceinte of the castle, with stone.3 A further honour conferred upon Richard de Redvers was that of the Honour of Christchurch in Hampshire in which was the church of Christ- church Twyneham. This church with its buildings he converted from a house of secular canons to a Priory of Augustine Canons.

  • The Skydmores of Chettiscombe, Devon
    Occasional Papers, no. 45. THE SKYDMORES OF CHETTISCOMBE, DEVON by Warren Skidmore1 The Scudamores, lords of Upton Scudamore in Wiltshire, owed their early allegiance in Devon to the patronage of the Courtenay family (Earls of Devon) in Devon and Somerset. It went firstly to Sir Hugh de Courtenay (1250-1292) of Okehampton, who married Eleanor le Despenser, and then to his son of the same name (ca. 1276-1349). The title of Earl of Devon (of the Courtenay creation) was revived for the young Hugh 1335. He was destined to become a great soldier in the Hundred Years War in service to Edward III, and was one of an elite group of knights selected to protect the King’s body. He was, at the personal invitation of the King himself, made the twelfth founding knight of the Order of the Garter in 1348 at Windsor Casttle. After a distinguished career he was buried the following year at Exeter Cathedral. The Skydmores in Devon, a few in reduced circumstances, continued to enjoy the patronage of the Courtenays for several generations. Sir Walter (I) de Skydemore (died 1318), of Upton Skydemore, was the son and heir of Sir Peter (II) Skydemore (died 1293), lord of Upton Scudamore.2 This Sir Walter de Kydemor (bearing arms Gu. 3 stirrups Ar.) and Sir Philip de Courteney were companions together in 1309 at a great tournament held at Dunstable in Bedfordshire. Their names are together on a roll of the arms which shows that they came to the field in the same retinue.3 These tournaments were an early precursor of the soccer matches of today and survived until late in the reign of Queen Elizabeth to celebrate her “accession day.” On 8 March 1315 (in the 8th year of the reign of Edward II) Sir Walter is said to have held Chettiscombe and West Chevithorne, near Tiverton, of the King.4 This was a clerical error however, as the name of the tenant-in-chief of the king was Sir Hugh de Courtenay.
