There have, not unexpectedly, been considerable archival losses too, as some later vacancy inventories at York make clear: the Durham sede vacante register of Alexander Neville (1381) and accompanying visitation records; the York sede vacante register after Neville’s own translation in 1388; the register of Thomas Arundel (only the register of his vicars-general survives today), and the register of Robert Waldby (likewise only his vicar-general’s register is now extant) have all long disappeared.1 Some of these would also have included records of ordinations, now missing from the chronological sequence.

  • Who Was Who in Medieval Limerick; from Manuscript Sources
    Who Was Who in Medieval Limerick; from Manuscript Sources. (updated 22/01/2012) by Brian Hodkinson, Assistant Curator, Limerick Museum ©. (Changes since first uploaded to be found as an appendix) The following list is compiled for my own personal research into medieval Limerick and is offered in the knowledge that it is not perfect. I hope it can be used as a tool to kick start research into various aspects of medieval Limerick. The list is compiled mostly from indexes to calendared documents, looking up all references under “Limerick” or in the case of CJR the locations at the side of the text. Lenihan’s mayoral list has been avoided because it was compiled at a later date and cannot, for the medieval period, be shown to be authentic. In many cases, such as the papal documents, it is highly probable that there are extra references to individuals who started or ended their career outside Limerick. Some people are known to have played a part on the wider national stage, but only Limerick references are listed here. Bishops are listed in chronological order under Limerick. Where I have anglicised names, I have often put the original spelling in brackets afterwards, variant spellings are treated likewise, so it is worth using “find on page” facility. All “sons of” are listed under Fitz. Given the vagaries of medieval spelling it is highly likely that the same person may be entered twice. The list is there to be improved so if you spot errors, have reasonable grounds to combine entries or have extra references then please let me know at [email protected] If you pursue the career of someone in the list outside Limerick, then references in the same format can be added.

PRINTED FOR THE SOCIETY. 1898. : LEEDS PRINTED BY J. WHITEHEAD AND SON, TRINITY STREET. I NTRODUCTION. THE period during which the inquisitions printed in this volume were taken is from 1283 to 1295. In addition, two inquisitions omitted from the former series are given at the beginning. The Inquisitiones post mortem, that is, those strictly so called (for the whole series are included under that designation), are inferior in interest to those published in the first volume. The details of the holdings and the services due for them are usually very meagre, and contrast unfavourably with the wealth of information afforded by the surveys made after the death of Edmund de Lascy in 1 248 (Vol. I., p. 47). So far as they go they are valuable as confirming and amplifying the conclusions which were set forth in the Introduction to the former volume. There it is stated that the normal holding of a tenant in bondage (bondus) was a bovate or oxgang of land. This is proved to have been the case by the surveys made at Nidd and Westwick near Ripon, and at Kirkby Knowle (pp.

Banishing Usury: The Expulsion of Foreign Moneylenders in Medieval Europe, 1200-1450 Abstract Starting in the mid-thirteenth century, kings, bishops, and local rulers throughout western Europe repeatedly ordered the banishment of foreigners who were lending at interest. The expulsion of these foreigners, mostly Christians hailing from northern Italy, took place against a backdrop of rising anxieties over the social and spiritual implications of a rapidly expanding credit economy. Moreover, from 1274 onward, such expulsions were backed by the weight of canon law, as the church hierarchy—inspired by secular precedents—commanded rulers everywhere to expel foreign moneylenders from their lands.

HE History of the Church and Manor of Wigan T possesses an interest of its own, not only from the close connection of the one with the other, but also from the fact of its being the only instance, as far as I know, in which a secular priest held, in right of his church, such plenary powers as were conferred upon John de Winwick and his successors by King Edward III. There were others who became lords of the manor as parsons of their churches, as for instance the rectors of the neighbouring parish of Winwick, but I am not aware of any, beside the rectors of Wigan, who enjoyed a view of frankpledge, acquittance for themselves and their ten- ants from attendance at the Sheriffs' tourns, cognizance of all pleas as well concerning lands, tenements and rents as concerning transgressions, covenants and complaints, together with issues, forfeitures, amercements, fines and redemptions in cases of this sort arising within their town, manor or lordship, and also pleas of assizes, concerning tenants within their manor, who should happen to be ar- raigned before the King's justices appointed to hold assizes within the county, so that the said justices, when called upon by the parson or his bailiff, should give them up to www.flatcapsandbonnets.com Thank you for buying from Flatcapsandbonnets.com Click here to revisit iv IntroduRion.

LONDON GEORGE BELL & SONS 1898 W. H. WHITE AND CO. LTD. RIVERSIDE PRESS, EDINBURGH PREFACE IT is unnecessary to enumerate here the various books and transactions of antiquarian societies which have been con- sulted in the writing of this little volume. Much material has, of course, been derived from Poulson's Beverlac, a carefully revised edition of which would be very welcome to all students of the antiquities of the East Riding. The present writer desires to acknowledge his indebtedness to the learned papers of Mr John Bilson, F.S.A., F.R.I.B.A., and Mr A. F. Leach, F.S.A., who, though personally unknown to him, have been so good as to give him considerable help. He wishes also sincerely to thank Canon Nolloth for enabling him to examine the minster itself, and for much valuable information most courteously given. To Mr Wilfrid Groom, who at considerable personal inconvenience has taken most of the photographs from which the accompanying illustrations have been made, he desires to express his deep gratitude.
