  • Devon Protestation Oaths

    Devon Protestation Oaths

    Mortimers of Devon in the 1642 Protestation Oath Lists Research suggests that the Mortimers first settled in Devon in the 15th century or earlier. By 1523, the name had spread to 16 parishes and just 20 years later that number had grown to 19. By 1600, several branches of the Mortimer family had established themselves in Exeter, Devon’s capital. Over the following centuries Mortimers continued to move to Exeter. By the time of the first census in 1841, 87 Mortimers lived in Devon’s capital, out of 866 Mortimers who called Devon their home, more than any other county except Yorkshire. This document is intended to be a useful resource for genealogists but also Mortimer one name researchers. The history of the Devon Mortimer family is of interest due to their inheritance of a medieval name of great note during the middle ages, the Mortimer family of Wigmore being one of the great dynastic families of the age. Edmund Mortimer and Philippa Plantaganet, Countess of Ulster married in 1368 in Reading Abbey, with Edward IV, a great grandson of the above couple successfully claiming the throne for the house of York during the Wars of the Roses. The long line of Mortimer of Wigmore became extinct upon the death of young Earl Edmund Mortimer in 1425, but other branches survived, including Hugh Mortimer, who died fighting on the Lancastrian side in the Battle of Wakefield, 1460. One branch that survived past 1400 is of particular interest to Mortimer family researchers, the Mortimers of Attleborough, who were prosperous during the Late Middle Ages but then faded into obscurity after 1387, when most of the Mortimer estates were inherited by female co-heirs.

  • Thomas Yea of Yea by David

    Thomas Yea of Yea born ca 1510 & his descendants by David Yaw Introduction As a small boy growing up in a Derbyshire mining village, one of my early memories is of my adored grandfather James (Jim) Yaw speaking of his own childhood spent on farms at a far-away place called Wiveliscombe in Somerset. To my child’s imagination, it seemed an idyllic place – I pictured rolling green countryside bathed in warm sunshine where fat cattle and sheep roamed. When I first visited a few summers ago, I was pleased to find the imagery of my childhood pretty well confirmed. About four years ago I came across the Yeo Society site with its wealth of fascinating family history. By chance, I noticed on the resources link a list of individuals with interests in specific branches or areas. I was pleased to find Wiveliscombe was included – with the e-mail address for Mike Darch. Mike responded to my initial contact and generously shared with me the results of his ten years of research. He had validated, updated and further developed the website’s details of a family branch leading back to the marriage of William Yaw & Betty Galsworthy in Tiverton in 1786 and their subsequent move to Cheriton Fitzpaine. View over Wiveliscombe Over the last four years we have exchanged literally thousands of e-mails as we researched our respective branches of the Yea/Yaw/Yeaw family taking in South Wales, Wiveliscombe, Brompton Ralph, Clayhanger, Bampton, Washfield, Templeton and Sampford Peverell along the way. We have established a continuous documentary link from my grandfather who died in 1956 back through John & Sarah Yaw in Bampton in the 1841 census to John Yaw & Elizabeth Richards married in Washfield in 1784.
