  • Clan SEMPILL
    Clan SEMPILL ARMS Argent, a chevron chequy Gules and of the First between three hunting horns sable garnished and stringed of the Second CREST A stag’s head Argent attired with ten tynes Azure and collard with a prince’s crown Or MOTTO Keep tryst SUPPORTERS Two greyhounds Argent, collared Gules STANDARD The Arms in the hoist and of two tracts Gules and Argent, upon which is depicted three times the Crest, ensigned of a Baron’s coronet along with the Motto ‘Keep tryst’ in letters Gules upon two transverse bands Or A name known in Renfrewshire from the twelfth century, its origin is obscure. The suggestion that it is a corruption of ‘St Paul’ seem unlikely, as is the tradition that the 1st of the name had a reputation for being humble or simple. Robert de Sempill witnessed a charter to Paisley Abbey around 1246, and later, as chamberlain of Renfrew, a charter of the Earl of Lennox. His two sons, Robert and Thomas, supported Robert the Bruce, and both were rewarded by the king for their services. The elder son received all the lands around Largs in Ayrshire which had been confiscated from the Balliols. Thomas received a grant of half of the lands of Longniddry. The lands of Eliotstoun, which became the territorial designation of the chiefly line, were acquired prior to 1344. Sir Thomas Sempill of Eliotstoun fell at the Battle of Sauchiefurn fighting for James III in June 1488. His only son, John, succeeded to the family estates, and early in the reign of James IV – probably in 14188 – he was ennobled with the title, Lord Sempill.

  • Renaissance Scotland 1450-1540
    A HISTORY of the SCOTTISH PEOPLE 1 RENAISSANCE SCOTLAND 1450 - 1540 Hugh Ouston This is Chapter 1 of 5. Including the Overview, this set comprises 6 PDFs. The others are: Overview, Chp2 1540-1603, Chp3 1603-1689, Chp4 1690-1760, Chp5 1760-1840 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION: PERSPECTIVES ON RENAISSANCE SCOTLAND 1 POLITICAL CHANGE: THE STEWARTS AND THEIR STATE 2 RELIGIOUS CHANGE: THE CHURCH UNDER PRESSURE 4 SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CHANGE 5 CULTURAL CHANGE 8 INTRODUCTION: PERSPECTIVES ON RENAISSANCE SCOTLAND Until recently, historians tended to see the fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries as a period of economic decline, repetitive and destructive conflict between kings and nobles, and a corrupt and decadent church. Apart from the brief flowering of James IV's court and the tragedy of Flodden, it attracted little interest by comparison with the stirring events of the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries. This attitude has crumbled in the light of new research and, more particularly, new evaluation of already known evidence. Historiographically, this is now an exciting period. Among the questions now being asked are: • how unsettled or violent was Scotland after all during this period? • were the Stewart kings as weak as they have been portrayed? • should we look at how the kings or how the nobles extended their power? • can a consistently pro-English or pro-French theme be discovered in Stewart policy? • were the highlands destabilised by government policy? • was the pre-reformation Church as ineffective as reformers made out? • why did the Church find

"The Heraldry of the Preface. THE Hamiltons, so far as trustworthy evidence goes, cannot equal in descent either the Stewarts or Douglases, their history beginning about two hundred years later than that of the former, and one hundred years later than that of the latter ; still their antiquity is considerable. In the introduction to the first chapter I have dealt with the suggested earlier origin of the family. The Hamiltons were conspicuous in their loyalty to Queen Mary, and, judging by the number of marriages between members of the different branches, they were also loyal to their race. Throughout their history one hears little of the violent deeds which charac- terised the Stewarts and Douglases, and one may truthfully say the race has generally been a peaceful one.
