"Henry Ogle of Eglingham was born in 1600, for he was four a a half years old on the 19th of January, 1605... In 1643 he was one of the sequestrators for land, for the parliament, and on the 29th of November, 1644, was a deputy lieutenant for the county... He was a strong parliamentarian and in 1650... he entertained Cromwell in Eglingham, and the room where his guest slept is still standing at the Hall... He was a representative for the county in the Little Parliament 1653, and was again returned as such on the 4th of September, 1654... Henry's name occurs frequently as Captain Henry Ogle in State Papers, and he seems to have been very active;...it...seems probable that prior to the Restoration in 1660 he made over some of his property in case he should have been deprived, but however that may be, on the 20th of June, 1668, he entailed his property on his two grandchildren, with remainder to his own sons. He probably died in 1669. (Ogle and Bothal). He Top oPosted by: Phillip Ogle Date: March 06, 2001 at 11:08:48 In Reply to: Ogle Manor House in England by JUDY OGLE EDWARDS of 1565 Judy, I visited Northumberland 10 yrs. ago. The people who own Ogle Castle now are John and Boddil Bonas. I don't have the address for Ogle Castle, but suppose once you get there you could contact them to see if they would give you a tour. I didn't get in the Castle when I visited, I just drove up the drive and knocked at the door but no one answered. Yes, I played the "pushy American tourist" I would never have thought of doing something like that here in the States, but I was "bound and determined" to make the attempt once I arrived in Northumberland. I did luckily get a tour of Eglingham Hall where our John Ogle of Delaware's family lived. The owner at that time was April Potts. She was very gracious and gave me a tour of the downstairs of the Manor House. She was interested in the Ogle info that I had. I also walked up to the door of Bothal Castle. The maid who answered the door was very nice but she was amazed that I had gotten close enough to even knock! It seems the gardener is under instructions to chase off any uninvited intruder. She was urgently pressing me to leave quickly since the day before the gardener had chased off (with the dogs)another group of visiting Ogles! After she closed the door she quickly opened it again and gave me a small booklet on the history of the Castle. Bothal is still owned by the Duke of Portlands family and is used for some sort of business retreat. The Chapel at Bothal was closed for renovation so I couldn't get inside there either. But the Chapel at Eglingham was open and also Whalton Church close to Ogle. So I did get to see the tombstones of our ancestors at those locations. There are also several Ogles buried in Westminister Abbey. The Duke of Newcastle has a monument there and then the Ogle heiress who married the Earl of Shresbury has a large monument there. Some Ogle's I knew who visited Westminister talked to one of the employees there and got a personal tour of other Ogle sites within the Abbey. Hexam's Abbey also has some Ogle monuments. Anyway I hope some of this has been of help to you. I would be most interested in hearing about your trip when you return. It is a very moving experience to stand where our Ogle ancestors stood all those hundreds of years ago! Phillip Ogle. He married Jane FORSTER (2431), daughter of N. FORSTER (2434). He was born on 19 Jul 1600 (Ibid., p. 196-197.) (unknown subject unknown record type, by unknown photographer.). He died circa 1669 (Sir Henry A. Ogle, Ogle and Bothal.). Page 1 1. John3 OGLE of Eglingham (2433). "John Ogle of Eglingham was probably born about the year 1621. In 1650 he received a commission as captain of militia for the four northern counties, and the next year he was under the commonwealth a commissioner and also commanding a troop of horses in Scotland. He died before the 11th of June, 1686." (Ogle and Bothal) The Ogles of Eglingham held lands at Berwick-upon-Tweed, where Luke Ogle, a cousin of Captain John Ogle, became Vicar in 1655 (Ogle and Bothal p. 210). Berwick-upon-Tweed was an important military extablishment in the seventeenth century, where Captain Henry and Captain John Ogle were frequently present; Eglingham is in fact closer to Berwick than to Newcastle. With the men of the family occupied with military and political matters and probably seeing very little of the family seat at Eglingham, it is entirely reasonable to suppose that Captain John Ogle's wife resided during this period at Berwick, where she could be near her husband, and where her child was born. The records of Captain John Ogle's family are meagre, which is easily understood, considering the turbulent years in which he lived; and in 1668, when Captain Henry Ogle made over his property to his two grandchildren, young John Ogle had already gone to America. Thus his name is not mentioned in any surviving family papers, and as he was christened away from the family seat of Eglingham, his existence was not noted by Sir Henry Ogle in "Ogle and Bothal". (The English Origins of John Ogle) (Ibid.). He married Eleanor PRINGLE (2436). He was born circa 1621 at Eglingham, Northumberland, England (Ibid., p.198.). He witnessed the christening of John OGLE (2437) on 30 Sep 1649 at Berwick on Tweed, Northumberland, England (unknown subject, unknown repository, unknown repository address.). He served in the military in 1650 (Sir Henry A. Ogle, Ogle and Bothal.). He died say 1686 (Ibid.). a) John4 OGLE (2437) ("In 1664 affairs in England's American colonies were not running smoothly. Disputes among various settlements were prevalent. In addition to these troubles, the aggressive foreign policy of the Dutch government was a mater of serious concern in America as well as other parts of the world. Charles II and his brother, the Duke of York, having decided upon summary action, appointed a commission to go over and adjust the difficulties. Armed forces were to accompany them for the enforcement of their decisions and for certain conquests which had no doubt been anticipated. Colonel Richard Nicolls, in charge, with Sir Rober Carr, Sir George Cartwright and Samuel Maverick as the members, set out upon a mission that was destined to become an important and far-reaching event in American history. While its ostensible purpose was to straighten out the difficulties among the English settlements, its primary object was the removal of the Dutch menace to English trade and political power in America. Easy victories for the English forces resulted in the fall of New Amsterdam and New Amstel, and their re-establishment as New York and New Castle, as well as the complete surrender of the contiguous territory. The Dutch were almost eliminated, leaving only France and Spain as serious contenders for supremacy in America. John Ogle, "one of the soldiers at New Castle," was fearless, independent, stubborn, contentious, and possessed a considerable amount of the arrogance that the Elizabethan tradition had transmitted to the individual British soldier. He was typical of the men going out from Britain who were participating in the beginnings of a world empire which was finally to eclipse all of its predecessors) (John Ogle, Booklet, Library of Page 2 Congress, Washingon, D.C.) (Ogle/Ogles Family Association, "Ogle," Ogle Genealogist, 20 (1999). Hereinafter cited as "Ogle."). Ancestor of the Month October 2006 John (of Delaware) Ogle b. 30 Sep 1649 d. 1683/84 If we were going to make a movie of our ancestor John Ogle’s life, we would probably choose an actor like Erroll Flynn to play the lead. (I tried to think of a more modern actor—at least one who is alive and known to our younger family members, but I just couldn’t top Erroll Flynn, the swashbuckling, handsome, daring, adventurous heartthrob of yesteryear’s silver screen. Maybe Antonio Banderas would come close, but the accent needs to be British.) The Ogles of Northumberland John Ogle was born 30 Sep 1649 in Berwick-Upon-Tweed, England. He was the son of John (of Eglingham) Ogle and Elizabeth Pringle. John of Eglingham came from a long line of Ogles who traced their lineage back to Edward I, William the Conqueror, and Charlemagne.
