Geoffrey De Mandeville a Study of the Anarchy
GEOFFREY DE MANDEVILLE A STUDY OF THE ANARCHY By John Horace Round CHAPTER I. THE ACCESSION OF STEPHEN. BEFORE approaching that struggle between King Stephen and his rival, the Empress Maud, with which this work is mainly concerned, it is desirable to examine the peculiar conditions of Stephen's accession to the crown, determining, as they did, his position as king, and supplying, we shall find, the master-key to the anomalous character of his reign. The actual facts of the case are happily beyond question. From the moment of his uncle's death, as Dr. Stubbs truly observes, "the succession was treated as an open question." * Stephen, quick to see his chance, made a bold stroke for the crown. The wind was in his favour, and, with a handful of comrades, he landed on the shores of Kent. 2 His first reception was not encouraging : Dover refused him admission, and Canterbury closed her gates. 8 On this Dr. Stubbs thus comments : " At Dover and at Canterbury he was received with sullen silence. The men of Kent had no love for the stranger who came, as his predecessor Eustace had done, to trouble the land." * But "the men of Kent" were faithful to Stephen, when all others forsook him, and, remembering this, one would hardly expect to find in them his chief opponents. Nor, indeed, were they. Our great historian, when he wrote thus, must, I venture to think, have overlooked the passage in Ordericus (v. 110), from which we learn, incidentally, that Canterbury and Dover were among those fortresses which the Earl of Gloucester held by his father's gift. -

Drawing After the Antique at the British Museum
Drawing after the Antique at the British Museum Supplementary Materials: Biographies of Students Admitted to Draw in the Townley Gallery, British Museum, with Facsimiles of the Gallery Register Pages (1809 – 1817) Essay by Martin Myrone Contents Facsimile, Transcription and Biographies • Page 1 • Page 2 • Page 3 • Page 4 • Page 5 • Page 6 • Page 7 Sources and Abbreviations • Manuscript Sources • Abbreviations for Online Resources • Further Online Resources • Abbreviations for Printed Sources • Further Printed Sources 1 of 120 Jan. 14 Mr Ralph Irvine, no.8 Gt. Howland St. [recommended by] Mr Planta/ 6 months This is probably intended for the Scottish landscape painter Hugh Irvine (1782– 1829), who exhibited from 8 Howland Street in 1809. “This young gentleman, at an early period of life, manifested a strong inclination for the study of art, and for several years his application has been unremitting. For some time he was a pupil of Mr Reinagle of London, whose merit as an artist is well known; and he has long been a close student in landscape afer Nature” (Thom, History of Aberdeen, 1: 198). He was the third son of Alexander Irvine, 18th laird of Drum, Aberdeenshire (1754–1844), and his wife Jean (Forbes; d.1786). His uncle was the artist and art dealer James Irvine (1757–1831). Alexander Irvine had four sons and a daughter; Alexander (b.1777), Charles (b.1780), Hugh, Francis, and daughter Christian. There is no record of a Ralph Irvine among the Irvines of Drum (Wimberley, Short Account), nor was there a Royal Academy student or exhibiting or listed artist of this name, so this was surely a clerical error or misunderstanding. -

Descendants of Hughes I De Cavalcamp Seigneur De Conches
Descendants of Hughes I de Cavalcamp Seigneur de Conches Generation 1 1 1. HUGHES IDE CAVALCAMP SEIGNEUR DE CONCHES was born about 890 AD. He died about 980 AD in pr. Conches, Eure, Evreux, Normandy, France. Notes for Hughes I de Cavalcamp Seigneur de Conches: The best source for descendants of "Hughes de Cavalcamp" in Normandy and England, with detailed charts and copious notes is, "Famille & seigneurs de Tosny" by Etienne Pattou (2012) found at: http://racineshistoire.free.fr/LGN/PDF/Tosny.pdf In speaking of Hugh of Calvacamp, Guillaume of Jumièges names [his great-grandson] “Rogerius Toenites de stirpe Malahulcii qui Rollonis ducis patruus fuera. Oderic Vitalis, writing in 1113, says the same thing (see entry for Malahule), and appears correct in that Rollo is the son of Ragnavald Eysteinsson the reported brother of Malahulc Eysteinsson. If this source is correct, then Hugh de Calvacamp would be the first cousin of Rollo. Wiki provides a perspective which downplays Orderic Vitalis: "The house Tosny (in England also Töny, Tonei, Toni and Tony) was a family of the Norman nobility, without actually coming from Normandy. They played on 10 to 12 Century the duchy a prominent role, without ever being honored with a Count or Viscount title. The Normandy in the second half of the 11th Century with the most important strongholds of Tosny The Tosny come with security from the Ile-de-France, although the top 12 of Orderic Vitalis Century reported that the family came from Malahulce. Progenitor is Hugo de Calvacamp. 942 his son Hugo, a monk at the Abbey of Saint-Denis, to the Archbishop of Reims was appointed, probably in his wake, the family had then settled in Normandy. -
The Scudamore Stirrups, and the Family's Use of Personal
Occasional Papers, no. 38 THE SCUDAMORE STIRRUPS, AND THE FAMILY’S USE OF PERSONAL SEALS DURING THE LATE MIDDLE AGES by Warren Skidmore The art of heraldry had its origin in France. By the middle of the 12th century most of the landed families in both France and England had chosen an emblem or device perhaps first used on their shields at the tournaments organized to mimic a battle for aspiring knights.1 Soon after wax seals, particularly those used by the Crown, became a component part of legal documents that guaranteed their authenticity. Personal seals followed engraved with arbitrary devices that were seldom so distinctive as to identify the owner of the seal. Later this was done by adding a surrounding legend with either the name (or title) of the person to whom it belonged. The shape of seals used by lay persons during this period was generally circular, while the seals of ecclesiastics (or their institutions) were generally oblong and pointed. The first known use of the Scudamore stirrups on a seal was found on an original charter at the Huntington Library in San Marino, California. It belonged to Petri de Escudemor and was used on a charter dated 24 August 1323. My drawing done from a photograph has been widely reproduced.2 Decorative uses of the family stirrups can still be seen at a great many ancestral sites pertaining to the Scudamores from the church at Wellow, Somerset (and notably at several places in Herefordshire) which were visited by an American family group in August 2008. This group of Skidmore cousins traveled under the tutelage of Mrs. -

Kent Hundred Rolls Local Government and Corruption in The
http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society THE KENT HUNDRED ROLLS: LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND CORRUPTION IN THE THIRTEENTH CENTURY JENNIFER WARD The Kent Hundred Rolls of 1274-5, preserved in the National Archives, provide a mine of information for local historians. Many were printed by the Record Commission in the early Mneteenth century, but the two bulky volumes are only to be found in major libraries and the rolls are printed in abbreviated Latin.1 The new edition by the Kent Archaeological Society [published on its website, www.kentarchaeology.ac] comprises the com- plete rolls for Kent, in the original Latin and in an English translation (by Dr Bridgett Jones), and makes the source much more widely accessible. The Kent Rolls are remarkably complete, although there are a few omissions. The major liberties are only mentioned incidentally, namely the lowy of Tonbridge and the hundred of Wachlingstone. in the hands of Gilbert de Clare, Earl of Gloucester and Hertford; Wye, in the hands of the abbot of Battle abbey, Sussex; and the Cinque Ports which had their own privileges. In addition, there is no return for Sheppey or Ospringe. The Hundred Rolls have been discussed by a number of legal and administrative Mstorians, notably by Helen Cam, whose The Hundred and the Hundred Rolls, published in 1930, is still of value today.2 Edward I returned from crusade in 1274 to a kingdom where the Crown had been weakened by civil war during the baroMal reform period of 1258-65, and where there was extensive local government corruption.
