Parish of Skipton*
294 HISTORY OF CRAVEN. PARISH OF SKIPTON* HAVE reserved for this parish, the most interesting part of my subject, a place in Wharfdale, in order to deduce the honour and fee of Skipton from Bolton, to which it originally belonged. In the later Saxon times Bodeltone, or Botltunef (the town of the principal mansion), was the property of Earl Edwin, whose large possessions in the North were among the last estates in the kingdom which, after the Conquest, were permitted to remain in the hands of their former owners. This nobleman was son of Leofwine, and brother of Leofric, Earls of Mercia.J It is somewhat remarkable that after the forfeiture the posterity of this family, in the second generation, became possessed of these estates again by the marriage of William de Meschines with Cecilia de Romille. This will be proved by the following table:— •——————————;——————————iLeofwine Earl of Mercia§=j=......... Leofric §=Godiva Norman. Edwin, the Edwinus Comes of Ermenilda=Ricardus de Abrineis cognom. Domesday. Goz. I———— Matilda=.. —————— I Ranulph de Meschines, Earl of Chester, William de Meschines=Cecilia, daughter and heir of Robert Romille, ob. 1129. Lord of Skipton. But it was before the Domesday Survey that this nobleman had incurred the forfeiture; and his lands in Craven are accordingly surveyed under the head of TERRA REGIS. All these, consisting of LXXVII carucates, lay waste, having never recovered from the Danish ravages. Of these-— [* The parish is situated partly in the wapontake of Staincliffe and partly in Claro, and comprises the townships of Skipton, Barden, Beamsley, Bolton Abbey, Draughton, Embsay-with-Eastby, Haltoneast-with-Bolton, and Hazlewood- with-Storithes ; and contains an area of 24,7893. -

DESCENDANTS OF JAMES SANDS OF BLOCK ISLAND With notes on the WALKER, HUTCHINSON, RAY, GUTHRIE, PALGRAVE, CORNELL, AYSCOUGH, MIDDAGH, HOLT, AND HENSHAW FAMILIES Compiled by MALCOLM SANDS WILSON Privately Printed New York • 1949 Copyright 1949 by Malcolm Sands Wilson 770 Park Avenue, New York 21, N. Y. All rights reserved PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA The William Byrd Press, Inc., Richmond, Virginia Foreword The purpose of this Genealogy of the Sands Family, which is the result of much research, is to put on record a more comprehensive account than any so far published in this country. The "Descent of Comfort Sands & of his Children," by Temple Prime, New York, 1886; and "The Direct Forefathers and All the Descendants of Richardson Sands, etc.," by Benjamin Aymar Sands, New York, 1916, (from both of which volumes I have obtained material) are excellent as far as they go, but their scope is very limited, as was the intention of their com pilers. I have not attempted to undertake a full and complete genealogy of this family, but have endeavored to fill certain lines and bring more nearly to date the data collected by the late Fanning C. T. Beck and the late LeBaron Willard, (brother-in-law of my aunt Caroline Sands Willard). I take this opportunity to express my thanks to all members of the family who have rendered cheerful and cooperative assistance. It had been my intention to have a Part II in this volume, in which the English Family of Sands, Sandes, Sandis or Sandys were to have been treated, and where the connecting link between James Sands of Block Island and his English forebears was to be made clear. -
Convocations Called by Edward IV and Richard of Gloucester in 1483: Did They Ever Take Place?
Convocations Called by Edward IV and Richard of Gloucester in 1483: Did They Ever Take Place? ANNETTE CARSON IN I 4 8 3 , THE YEAR OF THREE KINGS, a series of dramatic regime changes led to unforeseen disruptions in the normal machinery of English government. It was a year of many plans unfulfilled, beginning with those of Edward IV who was still concerned over unfinished hostilities with James III of Scotland, and had also made clear his intention to wreak revenge on the treacherous Louis XI of France. All this came to naught when Edward's life ended suddenly and unexpectedly on 9 April. His twelve-year-old son, Edward V, was scheduled to be crowned as his successor, with Edward IV's last living brother Richard, Duke of Gloucester, appointed as lord protector. But within two months Richard had become king in his place, with young Edward deposed on the grounds that his father's marriage to Queen Elizabeth Woodville was both bigamous and secret, thus rendering their children illegitimate. Since this article will be looking closely at the events of this brief period, perhaps it will be useful to start with a very simplified chronology of early 1483. The ques- tions addressed concern two convocations, called by royal mandate in February and May respectively, about which some erroneous assumptions will be revealed.' January/February Edward IV's parliament. 3 February A convocation of the southern clergy is called by writ of Edward IV. 9 April Edward IV dies. 17-19 April Edward's funeral takes place, attended by leading clergy. -

ARTICLES Part 1. THE FATE OF THE SONS OF KING EDWARD IV: Robert Willoughby’s urgent mission PHILIPPA LANGLEY Robert Willoughby (1452–1502, made 1st Baron Willoughby de Broke c.1491) is a person of interest for The Missing Princes Project. He commanded the force despatched north by Henry VII immediately following the defeat of Richard III at the battle of Bosworth. Willoughby was charged with securing the children of the House of York, domiciled in the former king’s Yorkshire heartland, and escorting the Yorkist heir (or heirs) to London. As his lands lay in the south-west, Willoughby was not the most obvious choice for this mission, but his later interest in the northern Neville Latimer patrimony might suggest a motive.1 Willoughby had proved himself in military affairs and in 1501 was given command of a similarly significant commission when he conducted the 15-year-old Princess Catherine of Aragon from Plymouth to London for her marriage to Henry VII’s heir, Prince Arthur.2 At this remove we have no information regarding informing Vergil, who had potentially seen the boy Willoughby’s orders at Leicester other than that offered (and/or knew his age), were so profoundly mistaken. more than 30 years later by Henry VII’s historian Indeed, the eldest son of Edward IV would have Polydore Vergil: reached his majority on his fourteenth birthday,8 2 November 1484,9 and, as a result, would have been After Henry had obtained power, from the very start of his reign he then set about quelling the insurrections. -
Historical Introduction
HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION. THE Manuscript volume from which this work of the Camden Society is derived has been long known as a record of great value: and has been quoted as such by several of the most inquiring and painstaking of our historical writers. Having come into the collection of the founder of the Harleian Library, so highly was its importance estimated by Humphrey Wanley, his librarian, that he described it at greater length than any other to which he eva- de voted his attention. His account of its contents occupies no fewer than sixty-five pages of the folio Catalogue of the Harleian Manu- scripts (vol. i. pp. 256-311). It was found, however, some years ago, on comparison of this calendar with the book itself, that it was far from presenting a complete view of the whole contents of the Manuscript, many entries being arbitrarily passed over, in the pro- portion of nearly two-fifths. In consequence it was thought desirable, with a view to an improved Catalogue of the Harleian Collection, which was then in contemplation, to make a fresh abstract of the volume. This was executed in the Manuscript Department of the British Museum in the year 1835; and, as there was no immediate prospect of its being printed, it was made accessible to the public by being classed as the Additional MS. 11,269. This latter book, however, being a mere abstract, page by page, unprovided with any index, is not at present of the least utility, except perhaps to a reader who might require assistance in his attempts to decypher the original. -
