A Most Memorable Tour By Stephen D. Chanko, WED NESDAY , JUNE 7TH WFS Vice-President and Tour Host he 2017 Wingfield Family Society (WFS) tour of England & Ireland, 5th June through 15th June, by all T accounts was a most memorable tour, one that will be remembered for many years. Our last tour of England was in 1999 and this year’s tour was only our second visit to Ireland since 1991. Each member will likely have different, favorite memories of this year’s tour, but I will do my best to summarize our visit and the people we had the honor and pleasure to meet. TUESDAY, JUNE 6TH Our 1st tour day in London, England, began with a charter coach tour by many of the historic sites of London, while being entertained by our tour guide Vivien Stokes. Afterwards, we made a stop at St. Benet Paul's Wharf, the official church of the College of Arms. Here on 29 March 1664, the infant Thomas Wingfield (of York River) was christened. We were greeted by the Rev. Aneirin Glyn, who gave us a brief overview of the Welsh Anglican church and allowed time for photos and viewing of the church. To our delight, proudly hanging above the church pews was the John Wingfield York Herald Banner. The WFS previously St Benet Paul’s Wharf Church, presented the banner to St Benet Paul’s Wharf in 1988. Before London, England. leaving St. Benet Paul’s Wharf, the Rev.

  • 7 Councils, Counsel and Consensus in Henry VIII's Reformation
    1 7 Councils, Counsel and Consensus in Henry VIII’s Reformation RICHARD REX The one who really loves his prince is the one who counsels him and urges those things through which his rule is loved, his good name safeguarded, and his conscience unharmed.1 Even before Elton’s Tudor Revolution in Government (1953) it was recognised that the reign of Henry VIII represented a crucial stage in the development of the royal council, most notably in the formal emergence of a privy council unburdened by the judicial functions that had long clung to the king’s council thanks to its role at the centre of the royal court. The privy council that achieved autonomous existence in 1540 no longer bore even the outward form of a judicial body, unlike most other government departments of that time. Unlike most of the others, it was not even called a court. Its fundamental role, of course, was executive, something which many of Elton’s successors found it hard to appreciate as it was always so tempting to see the privy council in terms of the mid-twentieth-century high tide of British cabinet government. But the desire to see the privy council as a consultative policy-making body was not wholly without foundation. However unrealistically, Tudor political culture 1 [Stephen Baron], De Regimine Principum ad Serenissimum Regem Anglie Henricum Octauum (London, Wynkyn de Worde, n.d. [c.1509)]), sig. B5r: ‘Ille realiter diligit principem suum qui sibi consulit et optat illa per que eius dominium diligitur, eius fama custoditur, eius conscientia non leditur’.

As followers in the Conqueror’s army the Wydeviles rose through service with the Mowbray family. If we accept the definition given by Crouch and Turner for a brief period of time the Wydeviles qualified as barons in the twelfth century. This position was not maintained. By the thirteenth century the family had split into two distinct branches. The senior line settled in Yorkshire while the junior branch settled in Northamptonshire. The junior branch of the family gradually rose to prominence in the county through service as escheator, sheriff and knight of the shire.

FAMILY BACKGROUND Little is known of the testator’s family background. He is said to have been the son of Nicholas Wiltshire by the daughter and heir of Acklevit [=Hakluyt?] of Normandy. See St George, Richard, The Heraldic Visitation of Westmoreland Made in the Year 1615, (London: John Gray Bell, 1753), p. 32 at: https://books.google.ca/books?id=kbFfAAAAcAAJ&pg=PA32 For the testator’s manor of Stone mentioned in the will below, see Richardson, Joan A.

I cannot send forth this paper in its enlarged, and, I hope, amended form, without acknowledging the great assistance I have received, in many ways, from my brother, Lord Jermyn. I am especially indebted to him for numerous references to both French and English authorities quoted in the following pages. I gladly take this opportunity of expressing my thanks to Mr. Bond for his kind hdp at the British Museum, and to' Norroy King, Somerset, and York Heralds, and J. R.

A PAPER READ BEFORE THE ARCH1EOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF SUFFOLK, AT THEIR MEETING HELD AT ICKWORTH, OCTOBER2ND,1856, BY THE REV. LORD ARTHHR HERVEY, MA., PRESIDENT. THE name of the parish of Ickworth, like most of our parishes, is of Saxon origin, as is shown by the termination " worth" (signifying in the Anglo-Saxon tongue a field, manor, or estate), which is found in many names of places, as Bedericsworth, Horningsworth, Halesworth, Hepworth, Isleworth, &c. The first syllable Ick or Ike, is thought by Camden, with Much probability, to be a remnant of the ancient British name of the ICENI, which is also found in the Iknield-street, Icklingham, Ixworth, Ickleton, &c. ln which case Ikeworth would seem to be the name given to the parish by the Angles, while •there was still a distinct British population residing in it.
