    A BIBILOGRAPHICAL AND CRITICAL ACCOUNT OF THE THREE EDITIONS OF WATSON’S MEMOIRS OF THE ANCIENT EARLS OF WARREN AND SURREY. _______________ BY JOHN GOUGH NICHOLS, F.S.A. ______________ [Extracted from THE HERALD AND GENEALOGIST.] 1871. WATSON’S EARLS OF WARREN AND SURRY. 193 One of the most remarkable genealogical works produced in England during the last century, both for the purpose and intent of its production and the labor and sumptuousness of its execution, is Watson’s History of the Earls of Warren and Surrey. It is embellished with every illustration, armorial, monumental, and topographical, of which the subject was capable: and further decorated with countless number of ornamental initials and vignettes (generally arabesques of considerable elegance) all impressed from copper plates. The detached engravings, more than fifty in number, are described in the full account which Moule gives of the book in his Bibliotheca Heraldica. pp. 441-445; but it is impossible to estimate the cost which must have been expended on so sumptuous a work. The author, the Rev. John Watson, M.A., F.S.A. had published a History of Halifax (4to. 1775) in which (pp. 523-525) he has given minute details of his own biography down to that period. He was born in 1724 at Lyme cum Hanley, in the parish of Prestbury, Cheshire 1; was elected a Cheshire Fellow of Brazenose 1746; became Perpetual Curate of Ripponden in the parish of Halifax 1754; F.S.A. 1759; Rector of Mouingsby, co.

    A Nevill Effigy in the Parish Church of St Lawrence, Mereworth, Kent

    A Pied Bull: A Nevill Effigy in the Parish Church of St Lawrence, Mereworth, Kent MARCUS HERBERT THE FOLLOWING STUDY sets out to examine the history of an effigy of an armoured man in the church at Mereworth dating from the early Tudor period. It is generally held that the individual commemorated by the figure belonged to a cadet branch of the Nevill family of Westmorland. The reasons for this belief are explained together with a reappraisal of the dating evidence and an examination of the candidates. Introduction Around 1742 John Fane seventh Earl of Westmorland petitioned Joseph Wilcocks, Bishop of Rochester for a faculty to demolish the old parish church of St Lawrence at Mereworth and build another a bit further away.' The bishop had his commis- sioners examine both the old church and the plans for the new stating that 'the said parish church of Mereworth is an antient building and is decaying and that the situation of it is most inconvenient being near the bounds of the parish on one side, and that the greater number of the parishioners dwell at a great distance from it, and that the said Earle is desirous to pull down the said old parish church of Mereworth and to build a new one in a more convenient place and make a new church yard and assure the ground to the said parish forever at his own proper costs and charges'. Following the commissioners' report the bishop concluded that as 'no detriment, inconvenience or disadvantage' would be suffered by the minis- ter, parishioners or inhabitants, notice should be given in the church of the earl's intentions and inform those present that 'there will be as sufficient and more con- venient room in the new church than there is now in the old'.2 Fane's apparent concern for the parishioners was in reality a thinly veiled excuse to get rid of a building which spoilt his view and which was the final phase in his redevelopment For Jack Lowe, Samuel Lowe and Ellie Wilson.

    Picturesque England.Pdf

    1 2 3 t would require much more than a single volume to describe all the picturesque spots in our native land. But as far as space permitted, we believe we have given descrip- tions of all those places in England - whether towns, castles, manors, forests, lakes, or mountains - that are especially remarkable or that have either historical memories or poetic and romantic legend and lay associated with them. Nearly every rood of ground in our country has some glorious or pathetic mem- ory attached to it; its battlefields, its scenes of tragic events, or of happier associations, unite in giving a subtile charm to the land ”set in the silver sea.” In order to give a fair picture of our country, we have sought for the picturesque in each of its forty counties; devoting generally three articles to each; but of course increasing the number of descriptions in those counties that have the greatest claim on our attention from their scenery or associations. The southern counties possess many beauties: a charming coastline, and fertile and lovely pastures. In Wiltshire are those unique and ancient memorials of the past - Stonehenge and Abury; Hampshire has its old forest famed in history, and its adjoin- ing ”isle of beauty,” the Wight; and all possess ruins of fine old castles and abbeys, and two of our finest cathedrals - Canterbury and Winchester. The shires round London are well called the Home Counties, for there is a great home charm in their quiet pastures and well-wooded lands; while in the very centre of our country our greatest poet was born, in lovely Warwickshire.

    Anonyme De Béthune

    King John: a Flemish perspective by the Anonyme de Béthune (Histoire des ducs de Normandie et des rois d’Angleterre) This is an ad sensum translation by Ian Short of part of Francisque Michel’s edition (Paris, 1840) which is accessible at: https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k29431x/f148.image ... [90 ] During a truce between king Richard and [Philippe Auguste] king of France, Richard went off to attack [Aimar V] viscount of Limoges with whom he had a score to settle. There, in the course of one particular offensive, Richard was wounded in the chest by a shot from a longbow. There are many people who maintain that he was struck in the upper arm and died as a result of a wound that then festered. That, however, is just nonsense, for he was actually wounded in the chest between the shoulder and the breast. The bolt was extracted, but he died [on April 6 1199] as a result of the wound. Before dying, however, he made all his barons swear fealty to his brother John whom they were to make their king. Good king Richard then died and was buried at Fontevrault, that beautiful abbey for which he had such affection. He was interred at his father’s feet, and his heart taken to the mother church at Rouen. Richard’s brother John, who was count of Mortain, hurriedly declared himself duke of Normandy on account of the king of France who had begun waging war in Normandy. John hastened to Normandy where he had himself dedclared king.

During the three weekends members of the public were given experience in both test-pitting and finds processing. There was a very well attended Open Day on Bank Holiday Monday, 6 May. An enthusiastic team of Society volunteers continued work throughout the three weeks. In total, ten test-pits and five small trenches were excavated. Initial finds processing was carried out on site and was completed at Abinger by the Artefacts & Archives Research Group (AARG) with expert review of early pottery by Louise Rayner (Assistant Director: Post-excavation and Specialist Services at Archaeology South-East). The finds were then returned to Rowhurt’s owner Lucy Quinnell for safe-keeping. Finds recovered ranged from Late Bronze Age / Early Iron Age to Modern but with a significant gap in the Medieval period. This was unexpected as timber from the Rowhurst house has been dendrochronologically dated to 1346. However, it now seems the site may have been deserted soon after that part was constructed, most likely due the Black Death. Building surveys carried out for the owner have suggested that this part of the building may have been left open to the elements without a roof for up to 100 years.
  • Our Warren Ancestors

    Our Warren Ancestors

    Chapter 21 Our Warren Ancestors Introduction My paternal grandmother was Kate Cameron Burks (1873-1954). Kate’s mother was Mary Jane Crawford (1837-1902), and Kate’s maternal grandmother was Elmony Lester (1815-1855).1 Elmony Lester’s mother was Rachel West (1788-1860), and Rachel’s pedigree is shown below: Rachel’s mother was Rosanna Lewis (1752-1818) and her maternal grandmother was Priscilla Brooks (1725-1797). Priscilla’s mother was Elizabeth Warren (1703-1735). Elizabeth appears in the red rectangle in the lower-right corner of the pedigree chart shown on the previous page. If you have counted the 1 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4632783/ElmonyLester-14Apr16.pdf generations correctly, you should have figured out that Elizabeth Warren was my 6th-great grandmother. Having nothing better to do one day, I decided to see how far back I could go on the Warren line. And of course, that led to several weeks of research and writing about this interesting branch of the “Quincy Oakley” family. The remainder of this narrative is about our Warren ancestors, who lived in England for many centuries, and before that, in France. And I learned that we have some amazing ancestors in our Warren line! DNA Evidence Elizabeth Warren’s parents were Thomas Warren (1682-1749) and Mary Hackley (1684-1750). In my earlier narrative about our Warner ancestors in Virginia,2 I wrote that I had four DNA matches with living descendants of this couple. Since that time, I learned about four more DNA matches that I have with living descendants of this couple.

This prompts reflection about what churches have to educate about as a calendar year begins, nine days from inaugurating a controversial US President, amid heightened international security, in a country which cannot supply basic transport to workers on whom our economy depends, alongside a health system failing employees and patients, and with new statistics showing mental illness among UK children still accelerating. These things are major obstructions. The difficulties of each were all avoidable. Priests choose and adapt the formulas used at the Eucharist or mass week by week. What is fine for Westminster Abbey will not work for school children, and what suits a hipster congregation will not connect with rural parishes in Yorkshire. I frequently use one of the lesser known ‘canons’, as the central prayer is called.
  • The Warren Family from England to Alabama

    The Warren Family from England to Alabama

    THE WARREN FAMILY FROM ENGLAND TO ALABAMA 1066-2011 A family history began in 1979 By James R. Warren PREFACE AS a guide to this history, the reader should be aware of the format in which it is written. Every attempt was made to make this a readable account of the WARREN FAMILY. We did not want it to be perceived as a simple listing of obscure people with names and dates attached. In that format, interest is soon lost, and the book is set aside. History is boring to most of us because we do not make the connection that we were there as a family helping make it. We want each person to be real to the reader. That is why as much available information for each person was included, and more is added as new facts are discovered. The first section THE WARREN FAMILY ORIGIN gives the beginnings and history of the first people to use the name Warren (or de Varenne in France). It is provided to us largely by REV. THOMAS WARREN F.R.S.A. of Ireland from his History of the Warren Family A.D. 912-1902. The first WARRENS in his book, in turn, were taken from the REV. JOHN WATSON'S Memoirs of the Ancient Earls of Warren and Surrey and their Descendants to the Present Time, Volume One & Two, 1782. This brings the Warren Family out of France (Normandy) to England, and establishes their kinship to the Kings of England. THE LINEAGE also is taken from the above two accounts along with the Warren line of descent from Notes on the Southerland Latham and Allied Families by Edward Kinsey Voorhees, Atlanta, Georgia, Nineteen thirty one (For private Distribution) Microfilm No.
