There follows a biographical study of each of the Welsh bishops in the period. In the following in three sections, the clergy are studied the categories - cathedral, sinecure and parochial. Next follows a consideration of the influence of the laity, including the Crown, on the clergy in the capacity of patrons and sureties. Evidence regarding the unbeneficed clergy (curates, chaplains and schoolmasters) follows. The remuneration of the clergy in Wales is discussed.. The Welsh clergy are next considered as communicators of the faith, and the study concludes with an assessment of how are standard improved among them in this period, with some considerations of their opposite numbers in England. In Volume II, the evidence is summarisedin the form of tables. It . PREFACE.. This enquiry was prompted by 'a wish to fill a gap. ' A.. G.. Matthewst Walker Revised had proved a valuable- source of information in my first research project, studying the impact of the Civil War in Wil'tshire. 'My interest shifted to Wales which is- scarcely touched upon in Matthews' book, and my first intention was to try to close the gap by looking at the effects of that great upheaval in the four Welsh dioceses"; But as the study developed' my objective moved to an attempt to fill a deeper and more important gaps: an assessment of the achievement of the Church in Wales between the accession of Queen Elizabeth I and the outbreak of the Civil War. ` Studies of the Church of England in this period have paid too little attention to the four Welsh dioceses. To many English scholars: Wales may seem unfamiliar terri. t- ory"; i That. Wales was, and iss different from England is without doubt, 'though it is hard to say in exactly what. ways it Is different. Even allowing for the important fact. that most of its inhabitants were more-or-less monoglot Welsh speakers, it. is: questionable whether Wales was so very different from the English-speaking heartland than, say, Cornwall or Cumbria; In any case, the same Church served the whole: of England and Wales, and for good measure the Channel. Islands and the Isle of Man. ' To neglect any part of that. varied canvas is to distort the picture, Another reason why the Church in Wales has suffered neglect in this period is the nature, of the source mater- ial. "1 Diocesan records, in particular, are almost non- existant between 1558 and 1642'. 1 What are available, how- ever, are records from which` it is, possible to ascertain who most of the Welsh clergy were at this time, at least the incumbents and higher clergyy; There are gaps in the information, but, an overall picture emerges; If it encour- ages English scholars to explore this,, field further, most of the records are located, in London, and they are in Eng- lish, with occasional Latin, but not Welsh; It should be said however, "that books and articles on this topic have iii. - been written in Welsh, and not all. are available in translati onV Because of the nature of the material, this study has concentrated on two questions : Who were the Welsh cler- gy between 1558 and 1642 ? and, What were they like ? at least so far as the: Lr origins and education were concern- ed`0 It is, therefore, a study of the Welsh clergy rather than the Welsh Church. ' Account is taken, however, of par- ochial and diocesan structure and the remuneration of the clergy, since these factors provided the framework in which the Church functioned: Since establishing who the clergy were has been one of the main objectives, pre- been senting the material. in an accessible form has an to important consideration}: I found that the only way the do this was to present it in the form of tables of cathedral, sinecure and parish clergy, cross-referencing them as fully as possible This has raised many uncert- tables ainties as to identification, and the resulting reflect degrees of pzrobabllity: I have followed previous scholars in making or suggesting identifications as well It is as making sometimes tentative ones of my own`: to hoped that scholars in future will be able certify or correct individual cases: Information regarding the unbeneficed clergy is much to more sparse; But I believed that it would be wrong in- ignore such information as did exists There is more formation available as to churches and chapelries which were served by curates-than as to the clergy who served if thentt.; I felt it was right to tabulate such places, had only to indicate that Wal'esp like England, many by places of worship other than parish churches served to rectors and vicars=. Finally, I have aimed set such in the knowledge of the Welsh clergy as is available laity their context of their relations with the and d'uty of communicating the faith.

  • The Parochial Ministry of the Leaders of the Eighteenth Century Evangelical Revival1
    123/2 master:119/3 19/5/09 12:40 Page 143 143 The Parochial Ministry of the Leaders of the Eighteenth Century Evangelical Revival 1 David Wheaton Mention the evangelicals of the eighteenth centUry and many will conjUre Up pictUres of George Whitefield and John Wesley proclaiming the gospel to hUndreds or thoUsands at Moorfields, Kingsdown and other sUch venUes. They are portrayed as never so happy as when they are preaching, and so it is not sUrprising that a centUry later in 1853 W. J. Conybeare caricatUred the evangelical clergyman as being ‘oUt of his element in a parish … what he likes is, not a parish, bUt a congregation. The possession of a chapel in a large town, which he may fill with his disciples, is his idea of clerical UsefUlness’. 2 This statement may reflect the fact that at that time the rise of Anglo- Catholicism and introdUction of the trappings of the Unreformed ChUrch of Rome had caUsed many evangelical lay people to petition for a chUrch where the style of worship woUld continUe to reflect the simplicity of the Book of Common Prayer. In many cases bishops were relUctant to allow new parishes to be carved oUt of the existing ones, and so if we take the case of Jesmond Parish ChUrch in Newcastle it was initially proposed that the new chUrch shoUld be foUnded as a proprietary chapel. Similarly, at the other end of the coUntry, when an evangelical philanthropist desired to endow a chUrch, vicarage and school in the parish of Ware becaUse the incUmbent had adopted Anglo-Catholic practices, the diocesan aUthorities initially sUggested that a proprietary chapel woUld be preferable.
