  • U DDPA Papers of the Palmes Family of Naburn 13Th Cent
    Hull History Centre: Papers of the Palmes Family of Naburn U DDPA Papers of the Palmes Family of Naburn 13th cent. - 1906 Biographical Background: The Palmes family traced its pedigree back to Manfred Palmes who was living in 1140 and had lands in Taunton, Somerset. It is a family unique in being able to trace an unbroken inheritance from son to son from the twelfth century to 1974, with only one exception in the eighteenth century. In 1226 lands at Naburn in East Yorkshire were assigned to William Palmes by Richard de Watervill, the brother of Maud de Watervill, William Palmes's wife. The demesne lordship of Naburn then descended in the Palmes family to the twentieth century (Baines, Old Naburn, p. 45; Allison, History of York East Riding, iii, p. 77; Foster, Pedigrees, iii). Naburn is about three miles south of York and the Palmes family built a manor house on the east bank of the River Ouse. The house was first mentioned in 1345 and had eight hearths in 1672. A drawing of circa 1720 indicates a two storey house, three bays in length with attic windows in high gables. In other words, the family was comfortably-wealthy, although it was not until the early sixteenth century that any of the male members of the family held public office. William Palmes, who was living in the middle of the fifteenth century, married Ellen Rocliffe, whose father was one of the barons of the exchequer. She provided him with three male heirs and a daughter before taking the veil during his lifetime, in 1479.

Komar: Two claims to Fleta's Honors TWO CLAIMS TO FLETA'S 1OORS TWO CLAIMS TO FLETA'S HONORS. BoaRIs M. KoAxA.* Selden in his "Dissertatio ad Fletam"' published a copy of an interesting document the original of which is now lost. It is a memorandum in Exchequer, which tells us that on February 2, 1277, Thomas Bek loaned Henry de Bratton's "Summa de Legibus et Consuetudinibus Angliae" to Robert de Scardeburgh. Assuming, then, that all the other conditions required by the science of modern historical research are satisfied, we have here what might be termed a presumption that one of the above mentioned persons may have been the author of Fleta, since Fleta is an abridgement of Bratton's work written around the time mentioned in said Exchequer mem- •orandum. Mr. F. W. Nichols in the introduction to his translation of Britton has shown conclusively that Fleta was finished shortly after 1290, or probably towards the end of that year,2 for in the summer of 1290 it was still in the course of preparation.

LONDON ELLIOT STOCK, 62, PATERNOSTER ROW, E.C. 1893. PREFACE, THIS collection of traditionary lore connected with the Holy Wells, Rivers, Springs, and Lakes of England is the first systematic attempt made. It has been said there is no book in any language which treats of Holy Wells, except in a most fragmentary and discursive manner. It is hoped, therefore, that this may prove the foundation of an exhaustive work, at some future date, by a more competent hand. The subject is almost inexhaustible, and, at the same time, a most interesting one. There is probably no superstition of bygone days that has held the minds of men more tenaciously than that of well-worship in its broadest sense, "a worship simple and more dignified than a senseless crouching before idols." An honest endeavour has been made to render the work as accurate as possible, and to give the source of each account, where such could be ascertained.

  • 70Th Anniversary of Coxwold Cyclists Service
    SEVENTY COXWOLD SUNDAYS A HISTORY OF THE ANNUAL CHURCH SERVICE FOR CYCLE TOURISTS 1927/1996 ST. MICHAEL’S CHURCH COXWOLD, NORTH YORKSHIRE. Cyclists arrive at the lychgate ready for the service. Coxwold, 1987. Revd. Jim Thom with The Archbishop of York, Dr. John Habgood. FOREWORD BY THE FORMER ARCHBISHOP OF YORK, DR. JOHN HABGOOD. When people want to give thanks for something they enjoy, it is right that the Church should help them do so. I am therefore delighted to be able to commend this booklet. It tells the story of an initiative almost seventy years ago which blossomed into a tradition and which, for seventy Sundays, has enabled countless people to thank God for the pleasures of cycling, and for the glorious countryside which their cycles have enabled them to enjoy. In a society in which too many people take too much for granted, such acts of thanksgiving are an important corrective. I hope the tradition may long continue. John Ebor, Bishopthorpe Palace, YORK. 1 FOREWORD BY THE VICAR OF COXWOLD, REVD. D.F.JOHNSON, M.A. A view from the vicarage. I became Vicar on April 29th, 1988. They told me "Cyclists' Service in a fortnight". This, of course, was a woefully inadequate briefing and far too late to invite a visiting preacher anyway. Nowadays, when I invite someone to preach, the sort of thing I say is: "This is a festive occasion. The Church will be packed with a crowd of great people of all ages, predominantly dressed in modern cycling dress, which means skin tight gear in lurid colours.

    Welcome to the Diocese of York The Diocese of York is a family of 607 churches and 127 schools in 470 parishes, stretching from the Humber to the Tees and the A1 to the coast. We hope this pack will give you a good idea of what it might be like to live and work in the Diocese of York. Contents: Vision and mission Living in the Diocese Housing and money Ministry together Lifelong learning Spiritual sustenance York Minster Central support Young people Who’s who “We will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.” Ephesians 4:14 & 15 Vision and mission We have a vision of Generous Churches Making and Nurturing Disciples. “We will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.” Ephesians 4:14 & 15 As a Diocese, we want to see our churches making disciples of all ages. We want to see mutual resourcing to build up the Body of Christ, to grow in five areas: • Christ-likeness Becoming like Christ is the fundamental call of Christian discipleship. It is not always easy to assess, but we often recognise the flavour of a life becoming more godly. • Commitment Commitment itself has several features, including: commitment to God, to seeking God’s kingdom, to Christ’s body the Church. • Partnership Working with other churches, locally and globally, with schools, community groups, people, organisations for the common good, peace, justice and a healthy environment.
