Elizabeth Hopton. Notes for John Sturry: From "The Sterry Family" : "The Sturrys of Shropshire:...'the Sturry family of Shropshire belonged to the landed gentry, having acquired through marriage the estate of Rossall in the 1300s. According to Burke's History of the Commoners (2:671), which cites an 'Extract from the History of Shrewsbury and Maheway's Sheriffs,' Sir John de Rossall died without issue and his estates passed to his sisters, one of whom was married to a Sturry of Shrewsbury, Shropshire. Burke called the estate thus acquired by the Sturry family "Down Russall," whereas a contemporaneous entry in local church records called it the 'Isle Rossall' (Shropshire is landlocked). "According to one source (Collinson's Somerser, 1:263), a Sturry family in the period 1375-1415 (the reigns of Edward III and Henry IV owned estates in Northamptonshire, which presumably was a part of the same family. A reliable English genealogist has told the writer that the family emerges also in Devonshire in the 1600s (under the spelling 'Sture,' a common variation of Sturry at that time). Instances of confusion between 'Sturry' and 'Sterry' elsewhere in England are noted in the chapter on the origin of the name. "As explained...the coat of arms of the Sturry family is: argent, a lion rampant purpure double queued. "One Sturry line, running from about 1420 to 1623, is given in the record of a hearld's visitation to Shropshire of 1584- 1623...The line goes as follows, with supplementation in the case of later generations from parish records. 1. John Sturry was b. about 1420; he m. Anne, dau. of sir Roger Corbet of Mouerton, Shropshire, who d. 1468; Anne's eldest brother was Sir Richard Corbet, who d. 1495. John owned the estate Rossall in Shropshire...." 2 Children of John Sturry and Anne Corbet are: 5 i.

  • The Sheriffs of Shropshire," Has Entered at Considerable Length Into the History of the Ancient Family of Thynne, Otherwise Botfield, Or Botevyle
    468 THE FAMILY OF 'l'HYNNE, OTHERWISE BO'l'FIELD. THE Rev. J. B. Blakeway, in his account of "The Sheriffs of Shropshire," has entered at considerable length into the history of the ancient family of Thynne, otherwise Botfield, or Botevyle. He has correctly discarded the idea, originating with Matthew Paris, that the first recorded ancestor of this family, Geoffrey Botevile, was a native of Poictou, and that he settled on lands in Stretton, in the county of Salop, given him by the Earl of Arundel,' .and which lands were afterwards called by his name of Botevile: the fact being that the family, instead of giving their name to the place, derived their surname there• from; and the various members thereof are, upon all the ancient Court Rolls of the manor of Stretton, described as Bottefeld of Bottefeld, although in later years the branch of the family which continued to reside there adopted the orthography of Botevyle, by which name the place itself is now usually known. Mr. Blakeway himself has, however, fallen into several errors in the detail of the family; and his admission that Sir Ralph de Theyne, knight, who was examined in the great plea of arms, Lovel v. Morley, in 1395, might have belonged to this house was certainly made without any sufficient reason : for the name of Thynne was unknown in this distinguished Shrop• shire family until after the division of the family estates in the manor of Stretton in 1439, when Thomas Bottefeld settled his copyhold lands at Bottefeld upon his younger son John Botte• feld, the ancestor of the line thereafter resident on that estate, and his eldest son William Bottefeld adopted for his residence the mansion or inn a at Stretton, to which the freehold lands of the family, with various detached copyholds, were attached, and thus formed a separate estate and residence for himself and his descendants.

  • MORETON CORBET Written Primarily by Barbara Coulton 1989
    MORETON CORBET Written primarily by Barbara Coulton 1989 EARLY HISTORY There has been a settlement at Moreton at least since Saxon, even Roman times and it lies on the Roman road from Chester to Wroxeter. The Domesday Book (1086) records that Moreton was held by Thorold, from whom it was held by Hunning and his brother since before 1066. Another Saxon family, that of Thoret, came to have Moreton, under Robert fitz Turold. In the time of his descendant, Peter fitz Toret, the chapel at Moreton - a subsidiary of the church of St Mary at Shawbury (a Saxon foundation) - was granted, with St Mary's and its other chapels, to Haughmond Abbey, c. 1150. The north and south walls of the present church may date back to this time. Charters of Haughmond were attested by Peter fitz Toret and his sons, the second of whom, Bartholomew, inherited Moreton Toret, as it was then known. Witnesses to a charter of 1196 include Bartholomew de Morton and Richard Corbet of Wattlesborough, a small fortress in the chain guarding the frontier with Wales. He was a kinsman of the Corbets of Caus Castle, barons there from soon after the Norman conquest; Richard Corbet held Wattlesborough from his kinsman, owing him knight service each year, or when a campaign made it necessary. Richard Corbet married Bartholomew's daughter Joanna, heiress of Moreton, and their son, another RICHARD CORBET, inherited both Wattlesborough and Moreton. He married Petronilla, Lady of Booley and Edgbolton; their son ROBERT CORBET was of full age and in possession of his estates by 1255.

PREFACE '•"^AN these bones live ? . and the breath came into them, and they ^-^ lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.' The question, that was asked in Ezekiel's vision, seems to have been answered satisfactorily ; but it is no easy matter to breathe life into the dry bones of more than a thousand pedigrees : for not many of us are interested in the genealogies of others ; though indeed to those few such an interest is a living thing. Several of the following pedigrees are to be found among the most ancient of authenticated genealogical records : almost all of them have been derived from accepted and standard works ; and the most modern authorities have been consulted ; while many pedigrees, that seemed to be doubtful, have been omitted. Their special interest is to be found in the fact that (with the exception of some of those whose names are recorded in the Wallop pedigree, including Sir John Wallop, K.G., who ' walloped' the French in 1515) every person, whose lineage is shown, is a direct (not a collateral) ancestor of a family, whose continuous descent can be traced since the thirteenth century, and whose name is identical with that part of England in which its members have held land for more than seven hundred and fifty years.

    William Jenyns’ Ordinary An ordinary of arms collated during the reign of Edward III Preliminary edition by Steen Clemmensen from (a) London, College of Arms Jenyn’s Ordinary (b) London, Society of Antiquaries Ms.664/9 roll 26 Foreword 2 Introduction 2 The manuscripts 3 Families with many items 5 Figure 7 William Jenyns’ Ordinary, with comments 8 References 172 Index of names 180 Ordinary of arms 187 © 2008, Steen Clemmensen, Farum, Denmark FOREWORD The various reasons, not least the several german armorials which were suddenly available, the present work on the William Jenyns Ordinary had to be suspended. As the german armorials turned out to demand more time than expected, I felt that my preliminary efforts on this english armorial should be made available, though much of the analysis is still incomplete. Dr. Paul A. Fox, who kindly made his transcription of the Society of Antiquaries manuscript available, is currently working on a series of articles on this armorial, the first of which appeared in 2008. His transcription and the notices in the DBA was the basis of the current draft, which was supplemented and revised by comparison with the manuscripts in College of Arms and the Society of Antiquaries. The the assistance and hospitality of the College of Arms, their archivist Mr. Robert Yorke, and the Society of Antiquaries is gratefully acknowledged. The date of this armorial is uncertain, and avaits further analysis, including an estimation of the extent to which older armorials supplemented contemporary observations.
