THE UNIVERSITY of WINCHESTER Faculty of Humanities and Social THE UNIVERSITY OF WINCHESTER Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Protestant Dissenters in Hampshire, c. 1640-c. 1740 Rosalind Noreen Johnson Doctor of Philosophy June 2013 This Thesis has been completed as a requirement for a postgraduate research degree of the University of Winchester UNIVERSITY OF WINCHESTER ABSTRACT FACULTY OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES Doctor of Philosophy PROTESTANT DISSENTERS IN HAMPSHIRE, c. 1640-c. 1740 Rosalind Noreen Johnson This thesis demonstrates that the experiences of Protestant dissenters in the period from c. 1640-c. 1740 were of significant importance in the religious history of Hampshire. Modern scholarship has overlooked the value of Hampshire as a case study of Protestant nonconformity in the period, and this thesis therefore represents a major contribution to an understanding of provincial dissent in seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The thesis demonstrates the extent of dissatisfaction with the national church in the period 1640 to 1660. This period also saw the rise of radical religious groups, whose success in the county is examined. After the Restoration, persecution of dissenters became widespread, with occurrences often influenced by national events and legislation. But a close examination of the Hampshire evidence shows variations in the persecution of dissent across the county, due to local factors. Hampshire’s dissenters represented a significant minority in the population of the county, but no previous study has demonstrated how the distribution of dissent varied throughout the county. The distribution appears to have been influenced by many factors, but, in Hampshire as elsewhere, dissent was strong in towns, increasingly so in the eighteenth century. Previous studies of the social status of dissenters have not encompassed Hampshire, so this study makes an important contribution to existing analyses of social status by examining the evidence to demonstrate that the county’s dissenters were of the ‘middling sort’, but that this status did broaden in the years following Toleration. The experience of Hampshire dissenters after the Toleration Act has not been the subject of extensive study. This thesis examines unused sources to show how far the county’s dissenters were affected by external challenges from the Anglican church and by internal controversies. The conclusion is that Hampshire’s overall experience of dissent was influenced in some respects by national events, but at the same time not inevitably swayed by them. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Abstract 1 Table of Contents 2 List of Tables in Appendix 3 List of Maps in Appendix 4 Abbreviations 5 Declaration and Copyright Statement 6 Acknowledgements 7 Introduction 9 Chapter one: literature review, primary sources and methodology 17 Chapter two: dissatisfaction with the national church, 1640 to 1660 46 Chapter three: radical protestant religious movements, 1640 to 1660 66 Chapter four: the persecution of dissent, 1660 to 1689 82 Chapter five: the distribution of dissent, 1660 to 1740 122 Chapter six: the social status of dissenters, 1660 to 1740 164 Chapter seven: challenges to dissent, 1689 to 1740 182 Conclusions 214 Appendix: Tables 222 Appendix: Maps 337 Bibliography 345 2 LIST OF TABLES IN APPENDIX Table 1: Hampshire parishes and the purchase of bread and wine for communion, 1645-60 222 Tables 2a-d: Social status of dissenters 223 Tables 3a-j: Diocese of Winchester: Roman Catholics and Protestant nonconformists as percentage of adult population, 1676 226 Table 4: Diocese of Winchester: Percentage of conformists, Roman Catholics and Protestant nonconformists in parishes, by deanery, 1676 266 Table 5: From Compton Census (1676): percentage of Roman Catholics and Protestant nonconformists in large Hampshire parishes (1000+ inhabitants) 268 Table 6: From Compton Census (1676): percentage of Roman Catholics and Protestant nonconformists in Southampton parishes 269 Table 7: From Compton Census (1676): percentage of Roman Catholics and Protestant nonconformists in Winchester parishes 270 Table 8: Diocese of Winchester: Fordingbridge Deanery.

HE district round Basingstoke offers itself as the subject for a study of Romano-British . population development and. Tdistribution because Basingstoke Museum contains a singu­ larly complete collection of finds made in this area over a long period of years, and preserved by Mr. G. W. Willis. A number of the finds made are recorded by him and J. R. Ellaway in the Proceedings of the Hampshire Field Club (Vol. XV, 245 ff.). The known sites in the district were considerably multiplied by the field-work of S. E. Winbolt, who recorded them in the Proceedings of the same Society.1 I must express my indebtedness to Mr. G. W. Willis, F.S.A., Hon. Curator of Basingstoke Museum, for his courtesy and assist­ ance in affording access to the collection for the purposes of this study, which is part of a broader work on the Romano-British rural system.2 The area from which the bulk of the collection comes is limited on the north by the edge of the London Clay between Kingsclere and Odiham ; its east boundary is approximately that, of the east limit of the Eastern Hampshire High Chalk Region' southward to Alton. The south boundary crosses that region through Wilvelrod, Brown Candover and Micheldever, with outlying sites to the south at Micheldever Wood and Lanham Down (between Bighton and Wield). The western limit, equally arbitrary, falls along the line from Micheldever through Overton to Kingsclere.
