This new Church was divided in its attitude to Bishops, the marriage of clergy and a number of other important issues. There was a general unease in the Country, a sense that religious problems were not yet solved. The Gunpowder Plot. in 1605, proved that point early in the reign of James I. It was not only religious questions that remained 1111answered.James might anger Puritans, with his forthright 'No Bishop - no King', and Catholics by his refusal to make the restrictive and repressive laws governing their status less burdensome, but there was a new element in ever-increasing evidence. Most historians agree tha1 religion and politics went hand in hand during this century. To the King, a challenge to the authoricy of Bishops was tantamounl to a challenge to royal authority. James I and Charles I were increasingly drawn into confronlation with ever more asse,tive parliaments: indeed one of the chief causes of the breakdown of the government of Charles I in 1642 was his failure lo impose Archbishop Laud's Prayer Book on the Scots in 1638-9. This resulted in the Parliamentary triumph over the King in 1641 which sent his chief minister Stratford and Archbishop Laud to the block. The on-going tensions resulted in the Civil Wars 1642-7, 1648-9 and 1650-1 . The Commonwealth wa.5 set up after the execution of Charles I in 1649, followed by the Protectorate. In 1660, when Charles 11 became King, there was an anti-Puritan backlash and many clergy lost their benefices, as those deposed by Parliament were restored. Indeed between 1630 and 1660, clergy of all persuasions had a very trying time, either at the hands of Archbishop Laud, Parliamen1 or 1he vengeful Cavalier Parliament after 1660. Anti-Catholic sentiment grew during Charles ll's reign mainly because of his refusal to allow Parliament to exclude his Roman Catholic brother, James, Duke of York, from the succession. Although in 1685. on the death of his brother. James U was crowned king, the cutting short of his reign after only three years by the Glorious Revolution resulted in 235 more clergy evictions. Despite William and Mary's peaceful accession some clergy of the Church of England, including Bishops, held that Parli ament had no right to say that James ll had ceased to reign. The clergy who refused to take the Oath of Allegiance to the new King and Queen, who thus lost their livings, sees and benefices. were called 'Non Jurors'. The Clergy and the Administration lt may not be realised how much of the work now done by local officials was carried out by unp aid local rcsidentss. Often the task of supervising parochial activities fell upon the incumbent or his curnte: as 'men of the cloth' they were educated and of unquestioned probity. The incumbent also had to furnish returns of no nconformists and Roman Cath olics and to account for his cure of souls to tl1e Archdeacon who frequently demanded returns at his 'visitation·. Then there was the annual return of baptisms, marriages and burials (Bishops· Transcripts); important prior to the establishment of the ten-yearly censuses in 180 I. Most incumbents were entitled to tithes in cash, or kind, and to income from glebc lands; even so, tew were really rich unless they made good marriages or possessed private means. Curates were generally over­ worked and poorly paid, since they relied on part of the Rector's or Vicar's stip end and such fees as they were allowed in respect of marriages and burials, and other occasional benefits. There is some evidence of a slight improvement in the status of parochial clergy in the seventeenth century. l11is is noticeable at Thenford and Greatworth as younger sons of the land-owning class entered the church. Thomas Blencowe and Thomas Pargiter are examples of this process. The Greatworth Benefice From 1991 until 2003 the Greatworth benefice comprised the four churches of Greatworth. Marston St Lawrence, Thenford and Warkwortl1. The idea of clergy serving more Lhan one parish is not new, and the link betweenMarst on St Lawrence and Warkworth is very ancieni; it existed Lhroughout th e seventeenth centUI)'. The patronage in this century was always vested in the owners of Warkworth Castle (demolished at tJ1c beginning of the ninetc.eoth century); firstly the Chetwodes, then in the eighteenth ce ntury (when. ironically, they were Roman Catholics) the Holman and the Eyre families. Apart from the formal link between Marston St Lawrence and Warkworth there were many infon11al links between the four parishes. Thomas Blencowe ofTh enford was from a 236 family whichresided at Marston St Lawrence forfive centuries. William Osborne,Vicar of Thenford, was a witness to, and a beneficiary of, the will of Thomas Inglish, Curate at Marston St Lawrence to William Barkesdale. William Gilbert, whose wife's mother was from a Thenford land-owning family, was both Vicar of Marston St Lawrence and Rector of Greatworth, although at different times. Grea1worth Church, by George Clarke of Scaldwell (from Churches ofNor1Ju1111ptonshire). GREATWORTH The incumbenl at Great-worth, at the stan of the seventeenth century, was a John Brereton (Rector 1590-1610), believed to be the John Brereton of Magdalen Hall, Ox.ford, who matriculated in I 580 at the mature age of 27. He was ordained deacon and priest on 10 September 1587 at Peterborough, and was instituted as Rector of Greatworth on 8 July I 590. He compounded for fines on 28 September 1590. His will of 11 November 1609, was proved on 21 May 1610 by William Wood, the Rector of Middleton Cheney, one of his executors, who in I 590 had presented him to the living.

  • Archdeaconry Records
    Archdeaconry and peculiar records The Archdeaconry of Oxford was part of the Diocese of Lincoln until the creation of the Diocese of Oxford in 1542. The archdeaconry generated many of the same types of records as the diocese. Because the bishop and archdeacon sometimes used the same officials, there was overlap in the records. It can be difficult to tell which records belong to the Bishop (the Diocesan records) and which to the Archdeacon in the C16th and C17th. The collection contains the records of the Archdeaconry of Oxford and also of peculiar jurisdictions in Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Buckinghamshire. Peculiars were ecclesiastical areas within the Diocese of Oxford, but outside the jurisdiction of the Bishop of Oxford, such as Banbury, Buckingham, Langford, and Thame. In 1836 the Archdeaconry of Berkshire was also transferred to the Diocese of Oxford from the Diocese of Salisbury. In 1845 the Archdeaconry of Buckingham was transferred from the Diocese of Lincoln The court records (ARCH/1) deal with cases concerning the behaviour of the clergy, marriages, morals and religious beliefs of the laity, tithes, wills, church fabric and parish customs. The visitation records (ARCH/2) were created from the visits made by the archdeacon or his officials to every parish every few years. The financial records (ARCH/3) include fees and account books, and procuration books (procurators managed the affairs of other people). The records of clergy (ARCH/4) include mandates for induction of clergy into church livings, sequestration bonds for taking over a benefice (after the resignation or inability of the incumbent clerk in performing their duties) and subscription books including clergy ordination lists and institutions to livings, recording basic information on the names of clerks, their qualifications and careers The parochial records (ARCH/5) contain the annual transcripts of parish register entries.

  • THE MUSEUM During 1970 and 1971 Considerable Work Has Been Done on the Collections, Although Much Still Remains to Be Sorted Out
    THE MUSEUM During 1970 and 1971 considerable work has been done on the collections, although much still remains to be sorted out. The work of identifying and labelling geological specimens has been completed, and the insect collections sorted, fumi- gated, labelled, put in checklist order and card indexed. The egg collection has also been re-labelled and card indexed, and some specimens added to it. In the historical field a large collection of photographic plates, mainly taken by Taunt of Oxford about 1900, has been sorted and placed in individual envelopes. Racking has been installed in part of the first floor of the stable and most of the collection of pottery sherds transferred to it, where it is easily accessible. A start has been made on the production of a card index of the folk collection and to-date some 1,500 cards have been completed. At short notice reports on archaeological sites in the Chilterns and in the River Ouse Green Belt were prepared, and at greater leisure one on the Vale of Aylesbury for the County Planning Department. This involved visiting a very large number of sites, which did however yield additional information about some. A start has been made on an examination of air photographs of the county, and a number of new sites, particularly of ring ditches and medieval sites, have been found. Excavations were carried out by the museum staff on four sites referred to in The Records, three of them on behalf of the Milton Keynes Research Committee. Amongst the exhibitions was one of Museum Purchases 1960-1970, opened by Earl Howe, Chairman of the County Education Committee, which showed all the purchases made during that period.

    Engagement with the communities of Oxford and Oxfordshire Did you know? St Giles’ Fair began as the parish feast of St Giles, first recorded in 1624. From the 1780s it became a toy fair, with general amusements for children. In the next century its focus shifted towards adults, with entertainment, rides and stalls. In the late 1800s there were calls for the fair to be stopped on the grounds that it encouraged rowdy behaviour. During Victorian times engineering advances brought the forerunners of today’s rides. Today the huge pieces of machinery fill St Giles’ with sparkling lights for a few days each year, and whizz within feet of ancient college buildings. The stone heads around the Sheldonian Theatre now number thirteen (there were originally fourteen, but one was removed to make way for the adjoining Clarendon Building.)

  • Mission, Bishops and the Size of Dioceses
    Mission, Bishops and the Size of Dioceses E. R. WICKHAM I HAVE been asked by the Editor to write a general article on the exercise of episcope-that is to say, the good ordering of dioceses under episcopal administration-but with special reference to the size of dioceses that modern conditions might dictate. And to do this having in mind by way of illustration a concrete example as it appears from the recent Report of the Bishop of Oxford's Working Party on the Division of the Diocese. I must make it clear-should it be necessary-that I have no brief to advise the Diocese of Oxford and that my sole information is the published report itself. That report, with one dissentient, came out against division, a decision that has since been overwhelmingly endorsed by the Oxford Diocesan Conference, in March this year. The Oxford Report, so far as this article goes, is no more than a hook on which to hang a general issue now being raised in the Church of England, and which is currently being studied by a working-party set up by the Advisory Council for the Church's Minis­ try, in pursuance of a unanimous resolution of the Church Assembly in February, 1968. That resolution read: 'That A.C.C.M. be instructed to consider and report on the pastoral relationship of diocesan, suffragan and assistant bishops to the clergy and laity of their dioceses with a view to ascertaining the factors relating to the most appropriate size of a diocese and giving further consideration to the alternative scheme for small dioceses in Chapter XIV of the Report Diocesan Boundaries.' It is clear from this resolution that there is a history to the Assembly's decision.
