A Castle Coat--Of---Arnlsin Derrane
A Castle Coat--of---Arnlsin Derrane Katherine Mehigan then front garden of Mrs Margaret Hickey's residence, Durham Lodge, in Derrane, three miles east of IRoscommon town, there is a carved stone with a coat~of arms resting there for as long as family members can remember. Margaret Hickey thinks it may have been brought there by a member of an earlier generation of the Sandys family, of which she is the last of the name, being an only child to John Edwin and Mai Sandys. Margaret was married to the late Johnny Hickey. The Sandys family have been in Roscommon since the mid 17th century, at least, as a headstone in Roscommon's old St Coman's churchyard testifies. They have been in Derrane for many generations, and the family name is also found at Sandfield, near Knockcroghery, where Nehemiah Sandys lived in the mid 18th century. A story tells of the stone being in the Durham House property, not far from Durham Lodge, until the property was sold in the 1820s when Basil, his brother, William Sandys and some of their men carried it to Durham Lodge. In the late 1600s Robert Sandys married Mary Reynolds daughter of James Reynolds of Loughscur. There was a brother John who died shortly before the birth of his son. Within two years this son also died and Mary became sole heiress to her father's estate, which she passed to her second son Edwin. He added the name Reynolds, becoming Edwin Sandys Reynolds and lived at Durham House and Loughscur. Some sixty years later, in 1738, a member of another branch of the Reynolds Family contested the rights of the Sandys family to the Reynolds inheritance, as he claimed the property was only to descend in the male line. -
The History of the Jamestown Colony: Seventeenth-Century and Modern Interpretations
The History of the Jamestown Colony: Seventeenth-Century and Modern Interpretations A Senior Honors Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for graduation with research distinction in History in the undergraduate colleges of the Ohio State University By Sarah McBee The Ohio State University at Mansfield June 2009 Project Advisor: Professor Heather Tanner, Department of History Introduction Reevaluating Jamestown On an unexceptional day in December about four hundred years ago, three small ships embarked from an English dock and began the long and treacherous voyage across the Atlantic. The passengers on board envisioned their goals – wealth and discovery, glory and destiny. The promise of a new life hung tantalizingly ahead of them. When they arrived in their new world in May of the next year, they did not know that they were to begin the journey of a nation that would eventually become the United States of America. This summary sounds almost ridiculously idealistic – dream-driven achievers setting out to start over and build for themselves a better world. To the average American citizen, this story appears to be the classic description of the Pilgrims coming to the new world in 1620 seeking religious freedom. But what would the same average American citizen say to the fact that this deceptively idealistic story actually took place almost fourteen years earlier at Jamestown, Virginia? The unfortunate truth is that most people do not know the story of the Jamestown colony, established in 1607.1 Even when people have heard of Jamestown, often it is with a negative connotation. Common knowledge marginally recognizes Jamestown as the colony that predates the Separatists in New England by more than a dozen years, and as the first permanent English settlement in America. -

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. -
James VI and I and Rule Over Two Kingdoms: an English View*
JamesBlackwellOxford,HISRHistorical0950-3471©20037621000OriginalConrad Institute VI UKRussellArticle andResearchPublishing of Historical I and rule Ltd Research over two kingdoms2003 VI and I and rule over two kingdoms: an English view* Conrad Russell King’s College London Abstract This article compares English and Scottish responses to the union of the crowns in 1603 following the accession of James VI and I. It examines the reluctance of the English to rethink their ideas on sovereignty, and the problems inherent in an ‘imperfect union’. When King James VI of Scotland inherited the throne of England in March 1603, it meant profound institutional and political changes in the distribu- tion of power in Scotland. Yet paradoxically, because of Scottish views on the nature of power and of the state, it meant a comparatively small intel- lectual adjustment of those views. By contrast, in England, the accession of a Scottish king made little difference to the course of English political life, but it offered a far-reaching challenge to English views about the nature of sovereignty and of the state. Seen from south of the border, the troubles caused by the union were those resulting from the failure of the English to rethink their ideas on sovereignty. This failure prevented them from thinking constructively about the new relationship into which they had entered through the union of the crowns. Indeed, it often prevented them from admitting that they had entered into any relationship at all. In the terminology of the day, the union of the crowns in 1603 was an ‘imperfect union’, between two sovereign states under a common authority. -
Indenture, Transportation, and Spiriting: Seventeenth Century English Penal Policy and ‘Superfluous’ Populations1
chapter 6 Indenture, Transportation, and Spiriting: Seventeenth Century English Penal Policy and ‘Superfluous’ Populations1 Anna Suranyi The Atlantic colonies held by England in the seventeenth century meant many things for the state, including a source for resources, a market for manufactured goods, a zone for territorial expansion, a manifestation of success against rivals in the imperial struggle, and also territory for shunting populations that the state deemed undesirable. These unwanted persons consisted of poor vagrants, criminals, and rebels against the state, including the Irish, who were sometimes identified as part of the latter group. By send- ing these groups abroad as indentured servants, the English government sought, at various times, a cleansing of unwanted populations, a perceived moral redemption for the individuals involved, and a savings in detention expenses. In addition to these motivations for expelling certain populations, a further stimulus for shipping indentured servants was to supply labor to the new colonies in the Atlantic. Yet at the same time, the state also strove, not always successfully, to present itself as exerting impartial justice in the three kingdoms of England, Ireland, and Scotland, and attempted to main- tain synchronization of penal solutions to sedition, crime, and poverty in both England and Ireland. Fairness was intrinsically difficult to achieve because of significant con- flicts of interests within the state. The greatest obstacle was the fact that many of the individual contractors involved in shipping servants held influential government offices, and were able to shape public policy to support their pri- vate interests. The period of the Interregnum is particularly revealing in this regard, because it demonstrates a shift in public policy from a focus on the removal of populations deemed excess, surplus, or disorderly to a focus on a simultaneous though competing set of imperatives—moral redemption, pop- ulating the colonies, and economic profit. -

Edwin Sandys or Sandes was born in the year 1519, near Havvkshead, in the part of Lancashire called Furness Fells. He was the third son of William Sandys, Esq. and Margaret his wife, a descendant of the ancient barons of Kendal. As Easthwaite Hall was the principal resi- dence of the father, it is probable that it was in this house that Edwin first saw the light. It is not certainly known at what seminary the future archbishop received the rudiments of his education : it has however been conjectured with some plausibility by a bio- grapher that, as the school of Furness Abbey was then highly distinguished, and as his family were feudatories of that house, he was a pupil of the monks. -

But most importantly, these poems must be read as political performances, bids at self-representation, performances whose success or failure depended on the courtly audiences that consumed them. Both Wyatt and Surrey mobilized the humanist rhetorical traditions they learned as schoolboys to craft lines designed to garner the attention of influential members at court (maybe even Henry VIII himself). If the poems could not soften the heart of Henry VIII, they might, at the very least, serve to soften the hearts of the courtly members of their social circles. -
