ISBN 978-87-970977-0-0 The Powell roll of arms 1. Introduction According to Anthony Wagner, the late Garter King-of-arms and doyen of researchers of English armorials, this armorial was collated and compiled at the beginning of the glorious middle part of the reign of Edward III, between 1345 and 1351.1 This conclusion did not require much scholarly research, only a little perusing of the manuscript by a person with a fair knowledge of the peerage. The layout of the armorial makes it easy to approach with 45 banners at the beginning and narrow shields for the rest.2 One needs only to look at the banners and note a few odd earls, who never passed this dignity on. There were probably other copies or versions in circulation in former times, but only the one copied in 1584 by Robert Glover, then Somerset Herald, has survived. A more recent copy was painted in 1812 by the Rev. David Thomas Powell. It was considered the most important roll from the reign by James H. Greenstreet (d.1891), who a few years before his untimely early death transcribed it from Powell’s redrawing adjusted with the ‘original’ and named it the Powell Roll.3 Despite this assessment, no real interest in it has been taken before the present edition.4 Wagner noted a commonality with the Antiquaries’ Roll (AN) for which there is an unpublished transcription by Oswald Barron in the Society of Antiquaries in London. This armorial is dated a decade later. There is a considerable overlap, but no concordance. Besides recording a large number of coats of arms the Powell has two interesting elements: (1) there are multiple entries for very many families, and (2) much of the gentry in it appear to have held properties in East Anglia. As will be discussed below, the collation of arms and the compilation of the armorial must have been completed shortly before 1348. The armorial is not a record of participants in the early campaigns, but a survey of people of interest to the anonymous compiler. It is impractical, rather than impossible, to research and write extensive biographies on so many persons in relation to an armorial, so the search for documentation has been limited to just enough to identify the individual and place him socially and in time and space. Further information on the families, patrilineal lineages, is available in the standard references quoted, e.g. Complete Peerage, Brault’s The Rolls of Arms of Edward I, and Moor’s Knights of Edward I (mainly for fathers and earlier ancestors of the entries). The work of G.J. Brault is largely dependent on that of C. Moor, but of value for ease of consultation as well as content. All three draw on, and refer to, calendared governmental records, seals and other armorials. In addition selected volumes of the printed calendars of inquisitions post-mortem, patent rolls and close rolls have been consulted. A county affiliation is placed in the margin of entries in this edition for the county in which the principal properties of the family, if not the person, ought to be. If not, it should be the county in which the family first settled when noted in the official records. In many cases, this is obviously not the case. Acquisitions by marriage or grants often changed the distribution of lands, especially for ambitious (and lucky) younger sons. Similarly, extinction of a branch in the male line transferred many family properties to the husbands of heiresses. The reader will note the passing of lands by grants to apparently unrelated people, who then re-grant them back to the original owner on changed conditions in order to circumvent the normal rules of inheritance - usually for a fine (payment) to the royal administration. Some territorial affiliations were derived from the survey of knights in the Great or Parliamentary Roll (N/PAR) from 1307/12, which in several cases are not the same as the counties a person is known to have represented in Parliament or in a great council. 1 CEMRA 61-62, sigla PO. The date was already noted in Black’s catalogue of the Ashmolean manuscripts (Oxford 1845). 2 Oxford, Bodleian Library, Ms. Ashmole 804, part iv, PO/a. 3 Greenstreet PO. The items extracted into Foster DH are noted as from the Ashmole Roll. 4 Denholm-Young CF 118-120 has some comments on it. 3 2. The manuscripts There are three known manuscripts of the Powell armorial, two painted and one tricked. The principal manuscript (PO/a) is on vellum and could be contemporary with the collation of arms. The animal hide has never been tested for age, and the stylistic indicators are in principle unreliable. The copyist would probably faithfully render all details as in his source. This was the case for the Hatton-Dugdale copies of the mid 17th century now in the Society of Antiquaries. Wagner concluded that the tricked 16th century copy (PO/b) was probably from another version than the present principal manuscript, and in any case, this copy is rudimentary and unfinished.5 The copy (PO/c) made in 1812 is nice to have, but essentially worthless from a scholarly point of view. Its main force is that the copyist saw the principal manuscript two centuries earlier, and may have noted details that have been lost in the meantime. It also has an unintentional value as an example of the types and frequency of mistakes a copyist may make. The Reverend Powell was by all criteria a scrupulous workman. There is one printed transcription of the armorial by James Greenstreet published in Jewitt’s Reliquary in instalments during 1889-90.6 He used the 1812 facsimile (PO/c) as his principal source, but verified and corrected his entries with the principal manuscript (PO/c). Greenstreet numbered the banners and the shields in different series.7 There is no analysis, but it gives the names of the persons behind the arms, when available, as written in the legends. It also gives the folio and number on the folio in both of his sources. There is an additional transcription, not consulted, by Robert W. Mitchell in 1982 for the Heraldry Society of Scotland in his series of armorials from Oxford, Queen’s College, Ms.158 (PO/b). This transcription was not expected to provide relevant information when the three manuscripts and the Greenstreet transcription were available. 2.1 The presumed original - PO/a The principal manuscript, Oxford, Bodleian Library, Ashmole 804, part iv, is a book of 28 leaves of vellum, each 140 x 300 mm, slightly longer and only 2/3 the width of a modern A4 page. It contains 672 items, painted in four rows of three (3x4), 12 to the page. The first 45 are painted on rectangular banners, the remaining on narrow shields. There are multiple numberings on the pages; the one used here is by folio and consecutive item. The contents has been divided into two segments, 01 painted on banners, 02 painted on shields, and interspaced 03 for some items, that belong to peers extinct at the proposed time of collation. The Bodleian Library has made a digitized facsimile available on http://bodley30.bodley.ox.ac.uk:8180/luna/servlet/view/search;jsessionid=D13568DC007C144ED1 53F3FF954B3CCA?q=Shelfmark="MS.%20Ashmole%20804%2C%20pt.%20IV; but easier found through their digital catalogue. They also provide a description of each page with a transcription of the hard to read names. There are legends over the arms in a contemporary hand (A, 14C gothic) for the first five pages containing both banners and shields, the rest in another, probably contemporary hand (B, cursive) with retouching in a later similar hand (C, cursive). There are some later corrections, rewrites and/or additions with different inks. The few anonymous entries appear to be marked with a dot within a circle. The first 14 pages, items 1-168, are richly illuminated using gold and silver, while the remaining pages are more plainly coloured, but not of lower quality in respect of drawing and execution. The colours are faded and the silver blackened. Some yellows are almost white. There is some abrasive damage and occasional signs of water damage, if not corrections.

As your Wars of the Roses chairs, Teo Lamiot and I have been working hard with our crisis director, Sofia Filippa, and SMUNC Secretariat members to make this conference the best yet. If you have attended SMUNC before, I promise that this year will be even more full of surprise and intrigue than your last conference; if you are a newcomer, let me warn you of how intensely fun and challenging this conference will assuredly be. Regardless of how you arrive, you will all leave better delegates and hopefully with a reinvigorated love for Model UN. My own love for Model United Nations began when I co-chaired a committee for SMUNC (The Arab Spring), which was one of my very first experiences as a member of the Society for International Affairs at Stanford (the umbrella organization for the MUN team), and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Later that year, I joined the intercollegiate Model United Nations team.

  • “Powerful Arms and Fertile Soil”
    “Powerful Arms and Fertile Soil” English Identity and the Law of Arms in Early Modern England Claire Renée Kennedy A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History and Philosophy of Science University of Sydney 2017 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My greatest thanks and appreciation to Ofer Gal, who supervised my PhD with constant interest, insightfulness and support. This thesis owes so much to his helpful conversation and encouraging supervision and guidance. I have benefitted immensely from the suggestions and criticisms of my examiners, John Sutton, Nick Wilding, and Anthony Grafton, to whom I owe a particular debt. Grafton’s suggestion during the very early stages of my candidature that the quarrel between William Camden and Ralph Brooke might provide a promising avenue for research provided much inspiration for the larger project. I am greatly indebted to the staff in the Unit for History and Philosophy of Science: in particular, Hans Pols for his unwavering support and encouragement; Daniela Helbig, for providing some much-needed motivation during the home-stretch; and Debbie Castle, for her encouraging and reassuring presence. I have benefitted immensely from conversations with friends, in and outside the Unit for HPS. This includes, (but is not limited to): Megan Baumhammer, Sahar Tavakoli, Ian Lawson, Nick Bozic, Gemma Lucy Smart, Georg Repnikov, Anson Fehross, Caitrin Donovan, Stefan Gawronski, Angus Cornwell, Brenda Rosales and Carrie Hardie. My particular thanks to Kathryn Ticehurst and Laura Sumrall, for their willingness to read drafts, to listen, and to help me clarify my thoughts and ideas. My thanks also to the Centre for Editing Lives and Letters, University College London, and the History of Science Program, Princeton University, where I benefitted from spending time as a visiting research student.

  • My Ancestors Who Lived in Leeds Castle (And Some of Them Even Owned It!)
    Chapter 75 My Ancestors Who Lived in Leeds Castle (and Some of Them Even Owned It!) [originally written 4 January 2021] On 20 December 2020, Russ Leisenheimer posted a photo of a sunset over Leeds Castle to his Facebook page.1 Russ was one of my high school classmates in Euclid, Ohio, and he still lives in the Cleveland area. Here is the photo: I have been using the “World Family Tree” on Geni.com to investigate my European ancestors who lived during the Middle Ages, and seeing the photo of Leeds Castle got me to wondering if any of my ancestors lived there. OK, I realized that this was going to be a long shot, but due to the coronavirus pandemic, I have lots of free time to look into such seemingly trifling things. I immediately went to Wikipedia.org to learn about Leeds Castle, and that prompted the following reply to Russ on Facebook: Wikipedia states that “Leeds Castle is a castle in Kent, England, 5 miles (8 km) southeast of Maidstone. A castle has existed on the site since 1119, the first being a simple stone stronghold constructed by Robert de Crevecoeur which served as a military post in the time of Norman intrusions into England. In the 13th century, it came into the hands of King Edward I, for whom it became a favourite residence; in the 16th century, Henry VIII used it as a dwelling for his first wife, Catherine of Aragon.” According to the World Family Tree on Geni.com, Robert de Crevecoeur was my 25th great uncle.
