One of the points of difference between the bearings of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs on the one hand and those of the I Police Burghs on the other lies in the fact that the former carry castles and ships to an extent which becomes almost monotonous, while among the latter these bearings are rare. On the other hand, the Police Burghs very frequently assume a charge of which A 079 2 Aberchirder. examples, in the blazonry of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs, are very rare : this is the cross, derived apparently from the fact that their market-crosses are the most prominent of their ancient monuments.

    MEMOIRS OF THE JACOBITES OF 1715 AND 1745. By MRS. THOMSON, AUTHOR OF “MEMOIRS OF THE COURT OF HENRY THE EIGHTH,” “MEMOIRS OF SARAH, DUCHESS OF MARLBOROUGH,” ETC. VOLUME I. LONDON: RICHARD BENTLEY, NEW BURLINGTON STREET, Publisher in Ordinary to Her Majesty. 1845. LONDON: Printed by S. & J. BENTLEY, WILSON, and FLEY, Bangor House, Shoe Lane. PREFACE. In completing two volumes of a work which has been for some years in contemplation, it may be remarked that it is the only collective Biography of the Jacobites that has yet been given to the Public. Meagre accounts, scattered anecdotes, and fragments of memoir, have hitherto rather tantalized than satisfied those who have been interested in the events of 1715 and 1745. The works of Home, of Mr. Chambers, and the collections of Bishop Forbes, all excellent, are necessarily too much mingled up with the current of public affairs to comprise any considerable portion of biographical detail. Certain lives of some of the sufferers in the cause of the Stuarts, printed soon after the contests in behalf of those Princes, are little more than narratives of their trials and executions; they were intended merely as ephemeral productions to gratify a curious public, and merit no long existence. It would have been, indeed, for many years, scarcely prudent, and certainly not expedient, to proffer any information concerning the objects of royal indignation, except that which the newspapers afforded: nor was it perfectly safe, for a considerable time after the turbulent times in which the sufferers lived, to palliate their offences, or to express any deep concern for their fate.

The story goes that the origi- nal ancestor was ' one of the ancient family of de Leonne in France, which continues there in great honour to this day, and derives its original from the noble race of the Leones in Rome. He came from France to England with William the Conqueror, and from thence to Scotland with King Edgar, son to Malcolm iii., about the year 1098, from whom, for good service he had done him against Donald Bane the usurper, he obtained certain lands in the sheriffdom of Perth, which were called after him Glen Lyon.' This startling inversion of the usually accepted theory regard- ing the origin of surnames is buttressed by a charter said to have been granted by King Edgar in the seventh year of his reign (a.d.

LONDON: RICHARD BENTLEY, NEW BURLINGTON STREET, Publisher in Ordinary to Her Majesty. 1845. LONDON: Printed by S. & J. BENTLEY, WILSON, and FLEY, Bangor House, Shoe Lane. PREFACE. In completing this work, I have to repeat my acknowledgments to those friends and correspondents to whom I expressed my obligations in the Preface to the first volume; and I have the additional pleasure of recording similar obligations from other channels. I beg to testify my gratitude to Sir William Maxwell, Bart., of Montreith, for some information regarding the Nithsdale family; which, I hope, at some future time, to interweave with my biography of the Earl of Nithsdale; and also to Miss Charlotte Maxwell, the sister of Sir William Maxwell, whose enthusiasm for the subject of the Jacobites is proved by the interesting collection of Jacobite airs which she is forming, and which will be very acceptable to all who can appreciate poetry and song. To Sir John Maxwell, Bart., of Pollock, and to Lady Matilda Maxwell, I offer my best thanks for their prompt and valued suggestions on the same subject. I owe much to the courtesy and great intelligence of Mrs. Howison Craufurd, of Craufurdland Castle, Ayrshire: I have derived considerable assistance from that lady in the life of the Earl of Kilmarnock, and have, through her aid, been enabled to give to the public several letters never before published. For original information regarding the Derwentwater family, and for a degree of zeal, combined with accurate knowledge, I must here express my cordial thanks to the Hon.

Her grandparents were William Cavendish, 5th Duke of Devonshire, and Georgiana Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire. She was the favourite niece of William Cavendish, 6th Duke of Devonshire. The 6th Duke promoted a marriage between Blanche and her second cousin (who was also the Duke’s heir), William Cavendish, son of William Cavendish and Louisa O’Callaghan, and grandson of the 5th Duke of Devonshire. The couple had much in common, including their strong commitment to religion, and married on 6 August 1829, when Blanche was seventeen. She was styled as the Countess of Burlington after her husband succeeded to the title of Earl of Burlington (2nd creation) in 1834. She had five children with William Cavendish, although their firstborn, a son, died aged two. Their three surviving sons became distinguished politicians: the eldest, Spencer Compton Cavendish, known after 1858 by the courtesy title Marquess of Hartington, led the Liberal Party; Lord Frederick Cavendish was Chief Secretary for Ireland and was assassinated in 1882; and Lord Edward Cavendish was MP for West Derbyshire. They also had a daughter, Lady Louisa Caroline Cavendish, who married Admiral the Honourable Francis Egerton.

    Special Collections and University Archives : University Libraries John Fenwick Collection of Radcliffiana 1600-1853 3 vols. (1 linear foot) Call no.: MS 989 Collection overview The title Earl of Derwentwater was created under King James II in 1688 for Francis Radcliffe of Northumberland, and for sixty years thereafter, members of the Radcliffe family stood among the most prominent Jacobites in the north of England. One of Francis' grandson, James, the third Earl of Derwentwater, became embroiled in the Rebellion of 1715 and was beheaded in the London Tower for high treason, and another son, Charles, the so-called 4th Earl, was beheaded for his part in the Rebellion of 1745. Assembled by John Fenwick, who may have been a distant relative of the Radcliffes, this collection of Radcliffiana includes a mixture of original documents, 19th century transcriptions of originals, published works, and prints, all pertaining to the Jacobite Earls of Derwentwater. Set into paper frames and bound into more or less elaborate leather volumes, the documents cover the period from the English Civil War through the fallout after the execution of the 3rd Earl. They are focused primarily on the personal fates of the Earls, their Northumberland estates, and the genealogy of the Radcliffe family. See similar SCUA collections: Europe Background on Radcliffe family The title Earl of Derwentwater was created in 1688 for Sir Francis Radclyffe from Dilston Castle, Northumberland. The Radcliffe family, Catholic and ardent Royalists, had been prominent among the northern nobility, but the shifting political fortunes of the seventeenth century had exacted a toll: the family fell under suspicion of involvement in the Gunpowder Plot early in the century and had their estates confiscated during the Commonwealth for Francis's recusancy.
