’ r Some say one s parentage does not matter . Sometimes pe haps they are not living up to the standar d their ancestors set befor e them and
. r have got enough conscience left to speak to them about it Othe s , r r when they a rive at what the wo ld may consider a good position , may be inclined to make out that their ancestors wer e much more r important than they eally were . ’ r exam ine well r Is it not bette to one s blood, so that misplacedp ide , vain pretence and hereditary failings may be avoided ! and so learn r o r r that one family is not much bette wo se than another , for the bad penny turns up in every Family history sooner o r later as inevitably as the family genius . It was hoped that when this account was begun it would prove the r elationship between two o r three differ ent families of GWATKI N . It seems probable that the GWATKI N S of Pencoyd are the for bears of that line which we call the Reynolds GWATKI N S (owing to one of rr A R Sir REY them having ma ied Theophila P LME , niece to Joshua
N OLDS . ts ) But the link which connec the two lines is not found, neither are those which would prove the connections with the lines we call the Twickenham GWATKI N S and the Br ighton
GWATKI NS . Another question it was hoped would be answer ed was as to whether GWATKI N rr r S ARD Thomas , who ma ied fi stly, Rebecca EW , and secondly ” r r r r Ma garet , had any child en by Ma ga et but this question has gained no reply. r a 1 8 2 Mrs GWATKI N s In a lette , d ted December 9 , Jane say to “ her ‘ r GWATKI N r f r son , the Revd Richa d , If you pass th ough Ox o d perhaps you will call on Mr Nevil GWATKI N but his identity has not been revealed . r r 1 82 1 Mrs In anothe lette , dated , to her son , Jane mentions ” ’ Mistr ess MAYO .

The names James and Charles appear ing in the pedigr ee of the Amer ican GWATKI N S “ make me wonder whether they are anyt hing to do with those of S ellack .

No name has been put down in this account unless some evidence r r r fo r t of its bea e can be p oduced , and this I have to hank my Father fo r permitting me to look thr ough the family paper s and getting books H r on e efor dshire for me to sear ch in .

In consequence of this r efusal to comply with the above mentioned application and his constant adher ence to his duty as became a loyal ’ ’ subjeét your petitioner was subje ét to a variety of cruel treatment by which his life was put to imminent danger— and which was the cause of a very ill state of health so that he has been in a gr eat measure prevented from discharging the duties ofhis profession ever since that period — About the same time your petitioner was obliged fo r the security of his person to place himself under the pro t e étio n of the " R Honourable the Earl ofDUNMORE then Governor ofthe said Colony r r r of Virginia , by which means he was dep ived of his p ofesso ship and the emoluments thereunto annexed (amounting in the whole to Three Hundred Pounds ster ling a year and upwar ds) and also lost all his ’ r H r r exaét pape s , Books and ousehold Fu nitu e the value of which he is at present incapable of ascertaining but verily believes they cannot H amount to less than the sum of one undred Pounds ster ling . That ther e is due to your Petitioner (at this present time) in the r m H r said Colony of Vi ginia the Su of Two und ed Po unds sterling . That the above circumstances of your petitioners having been po fsessed and being depr ived of the said Pr ofessorship &C can be authenticated by the Earl of DUNMO R E now r esiding in Berkley Street r RAN Por tman Square London o r at Dunmor e Pa k in Scotland .
