The Canterbury Association
The Canterbury Association (1848-1852): A Study of Its Members’ Connections By the Reverend Michael Blain Note: This is a revised edition prepared during 2019, of material included in the book published in 2000 by the archives committee of the Anglican diocese of Christchurch to mark the 150th anniversary of the Canterbury settlement. In 1850 the first Canterbury Association ships sailed into the new settlement of Lyttelton, New Zealand. From that fulcrum year I have examined the lives of the eighty-four members of the Canterbury Association. Backwards into their origins, and forwards in their subsequent careers. I looked for connections. The story of the Association’s plans and the settlement of colonial Canterbury has been told often enough. (For instance, see A History of Canterbury volume 1, pp135-233, edited James Hight and CR Straubel.) Names and titles of many of these men still feature in the Canterbury landscape as mountains, lakes, and rivers. But who were the people? What brought these eighty-four together between the initial meeting on 27 March 1848 and the close of their operations in September 1852? What were the connections between them? In November 1847 Edward Gibbon Wakefield had convinced an idealistic young Irishman John Robert Godley that in partnership they could put together the best of all emigration plans. Wakefield’s experience, and Godley’s contacts brought together an association to promote a special colony in New Zealand, an English society free of industrial slums and revolutionary spirit, an ideal English society sustained by an ideal church of England. Each member of these eighty-four members has his biographical entry. -
ABSTRACT in the Early Nineteenth Century, the Church
ABSTRACT In the early nineteenth century, the Church of England faced a crisis of self- understanding as a result of political and social changes occurring in Britain. The church was forced to determine what it meant to be the established church of the nation in light of these new circumstances. In the 1830s, a revival took place within the Church of England which prompted a renewal of the theology and practice of the church, including the Eucharist. This revival, known as the Oxford Movement, breathed new life into the High Church party. A heightened emphasis was placed on the sacramental life and on the Eucharist as the focus of worship. Adherents of the Oxford Movement developed a Eucharistic theology which promoted a closer connection between the elements and Christ’s presence in the Eucharist than did the earlier Anglican tradition. One of the exponents of this Eucharistic theology was Robert Isaac Wilberforce (1802- 1857). The second son of anti-slavery crusader William Wilberforce, Robert was raised in a family of prominent Anglican Evangelicals. At the University of Oxford he came under the influence of his tutor, John Keble, who was one of the four leaders of the Oxford Movement during its heyday. The Gorham case, whose focus was ostensibly the question of baptismal regeneration, turned into a debate on the state’s control over the established church. Robert 1 Wilberforce was called upon to articulate the sacramental theology of the Oxford Movement, which he did in his three major works, The Doctrine of Holy Baptism: With Remarks to the Rev. -

Since the Completion of the Great West Tower of Halifax Parish Church In
Since the completion of the great west tower of Halifax Parish Church in the late fifteenth century four grotesque, spouting gargoyles have enjoyed a bird’s-eye view of Halifax. They have witnessed not only the faith journey of a vibrant community centred on Halifax’s historic Parish Church, but also the vicissitudes, which have shaped the history of the town of Halifax. The pre-conquest history of Christianity in Halifax remains obscure. It has been suggested that there may have been a hermitage on the banks of the Hebble dedicated to Saint John the Baptist dating from the seventh century mission of Paulinus to the North or possibly a later Saxon Church linked with the Anglian parish of Dewsbury, but both theories remain conjectural. Even after 1066, evidence is sparse, and there is no specific reference to a church or priest at Halifax in the Domesday Survey. However, the gift between 1078 and 1081 by the second Earl of Warenne, lord of the manor of Wakefield, of the rents and dues of the sub-manor of Halifax-cum-Heptonstall to the Benedictine Priory of Lewes, founded by his father, is documented, and it appears likely that the black-robed Cluniac monks had constructed a new church at Halifax by the early twelfth century. Fragments of an Anglo-Norman Church situated to the north of the present building are clearly discernible in the distinctive carved chevron stonework incorporated into a late- thirteenth rebuilding after the appointment of the first Vicar of Halifax, Ingelard Turbard, in 1274. Surviving Early English lancet windows in a three-bay length of masonry in the north wall have been attributed to this phase of rebuilding. -
Illegitimacy and English Landed Society C.1285-C.1500 Helen Sarah
Illegitimacy and English Landed Society c.1285-c.1500 Helen Sarah Matthews A thesis presented to Royal Holloway, University of London in Fulfilment of the Requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1 Declaration of Authorship I, Helen Sarah Matthews, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: ______________________ Date: ________________________ 2 Abstract This study examines the incidence of illegitimacy among members of the landed classes, broadly defined, in late medieval England and the factors which affected the ability of parents to provide for their illegitimate offspring. Illegitimacy has normally been studied from either a legal or a social standpoint. This thesis will combine these approaches in order to provide insight into the social structure of late medieval England. Illegitimacy was a matter which primarily affected the right to inherit property and by implication, the person’s associated status. The period from c.1285, when the statute De Donis Conditionalibus was enacted, to the end of the fifteenth century saw the development of a number of legal devices affecting the ability of landowners to plan the succession to their estates. The enfeoffment to use and the entail allowed landowners the opportunity to settle estates on illegitimate children, or anyone else, without permanently alienating the property from the family line. By the fifteenth century, this freedom of action was becoming restricted by pre-existing entails and a means of breaking entails developed. This study begins with a survey of the legal issues surrounding illegitimacy and the context within which landowners were able to make provision for illegitimate children. -

My father was spoken of as the incumbent of the modern parish of Brathay, which comprised both sides of the dale, and lay in the two counties of Lancashire and Westmorland. I had two brothers and two sisters, all older than myself. My mother had died when I was two years old, and my aunt, Charlotte Boutflower, had come to look after her brother’s family; she was then and always very dear to us. -

Cadet Families
ROBERTSON OF STRUAN CONAN OF GLENEROCHIE, was a younger son of Henry, Earl of Atholl, and to whom his father assigned the lands of Glenerochie. He made a grant of the woods of these lands to the monks at Coupar Angus in around 1240x45, in which charter he is styled “Conan son of Henry, Earl of Atholl,”1 and granted the dead wood of his lands of Tulyhen to the Abbey of Lindores in 1240x1245.2 He was father of : 1. Ewen of Glenerochie, (see below). 2. A daughter who m. Hath, son of Gilbrid. He is styled “genero” to Conan when witness to a charter by Conan to the Abbey of Lindores.3 EWEN OF GLENEROCHIE, styled as son of Conan when witness to a charter by his father to the Abbey of Lindores in around 1240x1245.4 He granted his lands of Calziebrochan to the Monks of Coupar Angus Abbey in 1282 to be held by them of Ewan and his daughters and their respective husbands as superiors. He m. Muriel, daughter of Conghal, grandson of Malise, Steward of Strathearn, and d. without male issue prior to 1284. Although his daughters were his heirs in certain parts of his lands such as those of Calziebrochan, he was ultimately succeeded in his lands of Glenerochie by the Robertsons of Struan as heirs male. ANDREW DE ATHOLIA, OF GLENEROCHIE, is the first ancestor of the Clan Donnachaidh for whom there is positive proof. He is styled as father to Duncan de Atholia and grandfather to Robert de Atholia in several documents executed in the first half of the 14th century.
