By George Ormerod, D.C.L., F.R.S. and F.S.A. The LANCASHIRE HOUSE of NOEBES, and its SPEKE branch in particular, are among the strongest instances of the difficulty of investigating family history, where traditional antiquity and chivalrous descent have been acquiesced in from generation to generation. In such investigations the evidence of Records and Charters will often be found ample, but the labour of searching out and arranging it will as often be trifling when compared with the ungracious process of explaining errors in early compilations grown venerable from time; and such difficulty is created in the present case by the pedigree entered by Sir William Norres in the Visitation of 1567. -
The Easter Sepulchre in Faversham Church
Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 41 1929 ( 107 ) THE EASTER SEPULCHRE IN FAVERSHAM CHURCH. BY FANE LAMBABDE. IN Arch. Cant. XXXVI, p. 59, Mr. Arthur Hussey gives the Will of William Norreys, who desired to be buried in the Chancel of St. Nicholas Church, Ash by Sandwich. The will was proved 21st November, 1486, and so ended the connection with Kent of this great family which has left us such precious possessions as Speke Hall in Lancashire, Yattendon Church in Berkshire, and the heraldic glass of Ockwells in the same county. This William had inherited property from Sir John Norreys, who had acquired it through his second marriage to Eleanor, daughter and co-heiress of Roger Clitherow (Arch. Cant. XXXIV, 58) and his wife, the daughter and heiress of Sir John Oldcastle, jure uxoris Lord Cobham. It was Sir John Norreys who entirely re-built the Church of Yattendon between 1450 and 1460; who built Ockwells, and made its windows a veritable " Liber Amicorum " in glass ; and who built the North or St. Nicholas Chancel of Bray Church : on one of the Corbels of the roof of which he put his Kentish wife's arms. William Norreys appointed, as one of the trustees of his will, Philip Fitz Lewes. He was the third son of Sir Lewes John, alias Fitz Lewes, of West Horndon in Essex and his first wife Alice, daughter of Aubrey de Vere, 10th Earl of Oxford. His daughter Anne, married- William Crowmer, grandson and namesake of the Mayor of London, whose estate in Tunstall had been purchased from Sir Robert Knolles, and whose daughter-in-law, Elizabeth (Fiennes) married, for her second husband, Alexander Iden, of Westwell. -

Burke, Svante Norrhem, and Merry Wiesner-Hanks This series provides a forum for studies that investigate women, gender, and/ or sexuality in the late medieval and early modern world. The editors invite proposals for book-length studies of an interdisciplinary nature, including, but not exclusively, from the fields of history, literature, art and architectural history, and visual and material culture. Consideration will be given to both monographs and collections of essays. Chronologically, we welcome studies that look at the period between 1400 and 1700, with a focus on any part of the world, as well as comparative and global works. We invite proposals including, but not limited to, the following broad themes: methodologies, theories and meanings of gender; gender, power and political culture; monarchs, courts and power; constructions of femininity and masculinity; gift-giving, diplomacy and the politics of exchange; gender and the politics of early modern archives; gender and architectural spaces (courts, salons, household); consumption and material culture; objects and gendered power; women’s writing; gendered patronage and power; gendered activities, behaviours, rituals and fashions.

A Biography of Edward De Vere, 17Th Earl of Oxford, from Documentary Evidence
OXFORD’S BIOGRAPHY 1 ________________________________________________________________________ IDENTIFYING EDWARD DE VERE: A BIOGRAPHY OF EDWARD DE VERE, 17TH EARL OF OXFORD, FROM DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE INTRODUCTION Portrayals of Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford, in print, on film, and on the internet in the last century contain inaccuracies of both fact and interpretation. This biography attempts to separate fact from fiction, and is based, insofar as possible, on primary sources. Transcriptions of many of these primary source documents can be found on the Documents page of this website: http://www.oxford-shakespeare.com/documents.html The biography contains numerous page references to B.M. Ward’s The Seventeenth Earl of Oxford 1550-1604 From Contemporary Documents, and to Alan Nelson’s Monstrous Adversary. Nelson closely followed Ward, and these page references will permit readers to see where the two accounts diverge and interpretations differ. Both are accessible online. Throughout the biography, references to entries in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography identify persons with whom the Earls of Oxford interacted. In the absence of references to these ODNB entries, many of these individuals would otherwise be unknown to most modern readers who are not historians of the period, and their connections to the Earls of Oxford would be obscured. The ODNB is available online by subscription. Some of the material on the 17th Earl of Oxford in this biography can also be found in the Wikipedia entry for him, as that Wikipedia entry is largely the result of an extensive edit in November and December 2010 by the author of this biography. -
SPEKE HALL by Herbert Winstanley
SPEK.E : INNER BAY OF GREAT HALL. TRANSACTIONS SPEKE HALL By Herbert Winstanley Read I4th March 1918 PEKE HALL 'is justly famous as one of the S best examples of black and white mansions now left to us. It was built by various members of the Norris family and it was their home for several centuries. The Norrises of Speke were a younger branch of the family of one Hugh le Noreis, to whom King John before his accession to the throne gave the manor of Blackrod. They had land in Formby and Speke, and eventually acquired the manor of Speke by the marriage of Sir Henry Norris with Alice, heir of the family of Erneys of Chester, about 1390. From this alliance the descent of the family is established without difficulty. The next three generations at Speke were William Norris, who married the daughter of Sir James Harrington ; his son Thomas, who married Lettice Norris of West Derby ; and Thomas's son, Sir William Norris, who married Katherine, daughter of Sir Henry Bold of Bold. Sir William was succeeded by Henry Norris, who married Clemence, fifth daughter and co-heir of Sir James Harrington of Wolfage, and with his wife he obtained the Blackrod estate formerly held by Hugh le Noreis, the founder of the family. This Henry fought at Flodden in 1513, as mentioned below, and was buried at Childwall. This brings us down to the beginning ,of the ' B 2 Speke Hall sixteenth century, the century during which Speke Hall, as we know it to-day, appears to have been built. -
Of Lod-Huish and Doniford, in Somerset, and of Sand, in Devon
PROCEEDINGS OF THE SOMERSETSHIRE ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY DURING THE YEAR l8 97 . PA%T II—PAPERS, ETC. OF LOD-HUISH AND DONIFORD, IN SOMERSET, AND OF SAND, IN DEVON. PREFATORY NOTE. A FEW years since the MS. containing the following pedigree of Huyshe was purchased from the catalogue of a London bookseller. It is carefully written and bound, and appears from a letter preserved and inserted, that it was sent by the Rev. Francis Huyshe, of Pennsylvania, Exeter, to John Burke, Esq., of Eaynham Place, Chelsea, London, on 19th September, 1839. In this letter Mr. Huyshe says, " with this you will receive a correct copy of Mr. Protheroe's pedi- gree of Huyshe, which I believe you expect from him. I am fully confident, that you will think your most valuable work really honoured by the high ability and zeal that has spared neither trouble nor expense, which he has brought to the work, upon which he has been engaged very many years." It is probable Mr. Burke was then compiling his Genea- logical and Heraldic History of the Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland, and this pedigree was furnished him to give Vol. XLIII (Third Series, Vol. Ill), Part II. a 2 Papers, 8fc. particulars relative to the family of Huyshe. It has been transcribed verbatim, slightly re-arranged in a few places for greater clearness. The Notes added have been collected from various sources, and special thanks are offered to Mr. Roscoe Gibbs for the gift of his excellent drawings for the illustrations. W. H.
