Where will the 2019 AGM be? I did not see anything about the AGM in the March newsletter and I am looking forward to the June issue of the newsletter for the location and date information. Yours aye, CDSNA Member ***(name withheld by request) What happened to the AGM? Typically the June issue of Dubh Ghlase contains information about the upcoming CDSNA AGM… but that is not the case this year. With the Bylaws Revisions approved by membership, the AGM (Annual General Meeting) is now a GMM (General Members’ Meeting) and those will occur only once every three years. Our next GMM will be in 2021 and the location of the GMM has yet to be determined. Hopefully, the location will be known before our December newsletter later this year. If you have a location in mind for the 2021 GMM, please contact our clan officers with your recommendations so that any site location can be approved and publicized twelve months in advance of the GMM. If recommending a location, please remember this general guideline: The meeting should be concurrent with a Scottish game and the location of the meeting should be at or near the site of the games. Some may think it is too early to announce an All CDSNA meeting that won’t take place until 2021 but the reality about a GMM is that it takes a collection of individuals willing to plan and able to assist with its implementation for any such event to be successful. However, there is another GMM in the near future that will hold a greater significance for our Clan Douglas Society; the 2024 GMM. Why will the 2024 GMM be so special? That year will mark our 50th year as a Society… and what better place to celebrate our anniversary as a Society than the place where it all started: Grandfather Mountain! I am sure the CDSNA Board will be creating a 50th Anniversary Committee for this GMM and updates regarding the celebration will be published in future issues of Dubh Ghlase.

  • The Kingship of David II (1329-71)
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stirling Online Research Repository 1 The Kingship of David II (1329-71) Although he was an infant, and English sources would jibe that he soiled the coronation altar, David Bruce was the first king of Scots to receive full coronation and anointment. As such, his installation at Scone abbey on 24 November 1331 was another triumph for his father.1 The terms of the 1328 peace had stipulated that Edward III’s regime should help secure from Avignon both the lifting of Robert I’s excommunication and this parity of rite with the monarchies of England and France. David’s coronation must, then, have blended newly-borrowed traditions with established Scottish inaugural forms: it probably merged the introduction of the boy-king and the carrying of orb, sceptre and sword by the incumbents of ancient lines of earls, then unction and the taking of oaths to common law and church followed by a sermon by the new bishop of St Andrews, the recitation of royal genealogy in Gaelic and general homage, fealty and knighting of subjects alongside the king.2 Yet this display must also have been designed to reinforce the territorial claims of authority of the Bruce house in the presence of its allies and in-laws from the north, west and south-west of Scotland as well as the established Lowland political community. Finally, it was in part an impressive riposte to Edward II’s failed attempts to persuade the papacy of his claim for England’s kings to be anointed with the holy oil of Becket.3 1 Chronica Monasterii de Melsa, ed.

By 1070 the Norman conquest of England was complete. In 1085 the Domesday Survey was begun and all England was recorded so William knew exactly what his new kingdom contained. William introduced the Continental system of feudalism; by the Oath of Salisbury of 1086 all landlords swore allegiance to William, thus establishing the precedent that a vassal's loyalty to the king overrode his fealty to his immediate lord. During a campaign against King Philip I of France, William fell from a horse and was fatally injured. William was the illegitimate son of Robert I, duke of Normandy and Arletta, a tanner's daughter. He is sometimes called "William the Bastard".

  • Memoirs of the Jacobites of 1715 and 1745
    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.

Preface In this list cadet, associated, and stem families are arranged in a single entry when substantial property passed between one and the other providing continuity of parliamentary representation (even, as was the case in a few instances, when no blood or marriage relationship existed). Subsidiary/cadet families are usually grouped under the oldest, richest, or most influential stem family. Female MPs are counted with their birth families, or, if not born into a parliamentary family, with their husband’s family.

  • Reginal Intercession and the Case of Cristina, Convicted Murderer
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Iowa Research Online Reginal Intercession in the Case of Cristina, Convicted Murderer Katherine G. Allocco n the winter of 1328-29, Cristina, widow of Thomas Scot, pot- ter of London, and her father, John of Skonbergh, were convicted, I imprisoned in Newgate, and sentenced to hang for the crime of murdering her husband.1 Cristina’s execution was delayed due to her pregnancy. In January or February 1329, Cristina sent a letter to Isabella of France, the Queen Mother, requesting a King’s pardon for the charges of homicide for both herself and her father (fig. 1).2 On March 2, Edward III (r. 1327-77) pardoned Cristina, at his mother’s request, through letters patent and overturned her conviction.3 It appears that Isabella, who had an established reputation as an intercessor for both personal petitions and general political appeals, had successfully interceded on Cristina’s behalf. The fate of John of Skonbergh remains unknown. Although medieval queens—both consorts and dowagers—were frequently asked to intercede and often were effective avenues to securing pardons for crimes, this particular crime and its pardon provide insight into the networks that medieval women were able to create, the power available to widows and mothers, and the parameters of the medieval ideal of the reginal intercessor in early fourteenth-century England. 1.The National Archives, Kew (hereafter TNA), Gaol Delivery Rolls (JUST) 3/43/2 m 7r. This document seems to indicate that Cristina had been tried at the Court of Common Pleas.

  • Plantagenet Dynasty
    PLANTAGENET 1. GEOFFREY PLANTAGENET (nicknamed le Bel), Count of Anjou and Maine, Knt., son and heir of Foulques V le Jeune, Count of Anjou, King of Jerusalem, by his 1st wife, Eremburge, Countess of Maine, daughter and heiress of Hélie, Count of Maine, born 24 Nov. 1113. He married at Le Mans, Maine 17 June 1128 MAUD OF ENGLAND, Empress of Almain, sometimes styled “Lady of the English” (rarely “Queen of the English”), widow of Henry V, Emperor of Almain (died 23 May 1125), and daughter and heiress of Henry I, King of England, Duke of Normandy, by his 1st wife, Maud, daughter of Malcolm III (Canmore), King of Scotland. She was born at London 7 Feb. 1102. They had three sons (see below). By an unknown mistress (or mistresses), Geoffrey also had one son, Hamelin [5th Earl of Surrey], and two daughters, Emme and Mary (nun) [Abbess of Shaftesbury]. Maud was declared heir presumptive to her father in 1126. On her father, King Henry I’s death in 1135, she at once entered Normandy to claim her inheritance. The border districts submitted to her, but England chose her cousin, Stephen, for its king, and Normandy soon followed suit. The following year, Geoffrey gave Ambrières, Gorron, and Châtilon-sur-Colmont to Juhel de Mayenne, on condition that he help obtain the inheritance of Geoffrey’s wife, Maud. In 1139 Maud landed in England with 140 knights, where she was besieged at Arundel Castle by King Stephen. In the civil war which ensued, Stephen was captured at Lincoln in Feb. 1141 and imprisoned at Bristol.
