JN response to an invitation extended by Mr. flfred Poore of Salem, ~Iassachusetts, many persons hav- . ing our common name and lineage, and descendants of John, Samuel or Daniel Poor, or Poore, brothers, and the first settlers of such name in this country,­ desirous of having a family history, (for which abund­ ant material exists in public and private records and papers,) that a wide-spread kinship, springing from a com.mon ancestry,_ might learn the residence of its various members, the degree of their connection, their occupation and welfare, and in this , way be brought into more intimate relations of sympathy and good will, met at Young's Hotel, Boston, on the 6th day of November, 1880. At this meeting, at which twenty-two persons were present, all descendants of the said John, Samuel or Daniel, from whom it is believed that nearly all in this country bearing our name are descended, viz Ben : ~erley Poore, vVest Newbury, Mass.; Henry Varnum Poor, Brookline, ~lass.; Chas.

BEN : PERLEY PooRE to act as Chairman and ALFRED PooRE of Salem as Secretary. · After a full conference and discussion it ,vas decided to appoint a committee of six, two descendants from each of the three ancestors, to take measures for the publication of a history of our common family and also to make the necessary provision for a social gathering or reunion of all its branches on the 14th of September, 1881, at Newburyport, adjoining the town of Newbury, ,vhere the first John Poore settled, the house where he resided being still standing.

  • Parish' and 'City' -- a Shifting Identity: Salisbury 1440-1600
    Early Theatre 6.1(2003) audrey douglas ‘Parish’ and ‘City’ – A Shifting Identity: Salisbury 1440–1600 The study and documentation of ceremony and ritual, a broad concern of Records of Early English Drama, has stimulated discussion about their purpose and function in an urban context. Briefly, in academic estimation their role is largely positive, both in shaping civic consciousness and in harmonizing diverse classes and interests while – as a convenient corollary – simultaneously con- firming local hierarchies. Profitable self-promotion is also part of this urban picture, since ceremony and entertainment, like seasonal fairs, potentially attracted interest from outside the immediate locality. There are, however, factors that compromise this overall picture of useful urban concord: the dominance of an urban elite, for instance, may effectually be stabilized, promoted, or even disguised by ceremony and ritual; on the other hand, margi- nalized groups (women and the poor) have normally no place in them at all.l Those excluded from participation in civic ritual and ceremonial might, nevertheless, be to some extent accommodated in the pre-Reformation infra- structure of trade guilds and religious guilds. Both organizational groups crossed social and economic boundaries to draw male and female members together in ritual and public expression of a common purpose and brotherhood – signalling again (in customary obit, procession, and feasting) harmony and exclusivity, themes with which, it seems, pre-Reformation urban life was preoccupied. But although women were welcome within guild ranks, office was normally denied them. Fifteenth-century religious guilds also saw a decline in membership drawn from the poorer members of society, with an overall tendency for a dominant guild to become identified with a governing urban elite.2 Less obvious perhaps, but of prime importance to those excluded from any of the above, was the parish church itself, whose round of worship afforded forms of ritual open to all.

To a number of these, references are given in the text. But I wish to acknowledge how much I owe to the very careful and original research provided by Professor Willis, in his "Architectural History of the Cathedral"; by Precentor Walcott, in his "Early Statutes" of Chichester; and Dean Stephen, in his "Diocesan History." The footnotes, which refer to the latter work, indicate the pages in the smaller edition. But the volume could never have been completed without the great help given to me on many occassions by Prebendary Bennett. His deep and intimate knowledge of the cathedral structure and its history was always at my disposal. It is to him, as well as to Dr. Codrington and Mr. Gordon P.G.

Condon Issued to the Subscribers by Phillimore & Co., Ltd. 124, Chancery Lane. 1915- PREFACE. Six years have elapsed since tlie first volume of Devonshire Marriage Registers was issued and during those years the work- has been practically at a standstill, in strange contrast to the adjoining counties of Cornwall, Somerset, and Dorset, where the Marriage Registers of 133, 107 and 58 parishes respectively have now been printed. This lack of progress in Devon has been due partly to the death of Mr. W. P. W. Phillimore to whose inception the entire Series is due and who edited the first volume, but chiefly to the poor support forthcoming from Devon men, in comparison with that accorded to the Series in other counties by those interested in their Records. Thus the first volume for Devonshire was issued at a substantial loss. Now that the work has been resumed, it is hoped that the support received will be more proportionate to the size and importance of the county, and so will enable the Devonshire Marriage Registers to be printed on a uniform plan and with such regularity of output as will render them safe from further loss and readily accessible to the student and genealogical searcher.

TO THE MEMORY OF William of Saint Carilef THIS ATTEMPT TO ILLUSTRATE THE NOBLE CHURCH WHICH HIS GENIUS AND PIETY HAVE BEQUEATHED TO US IS DEDICATED. 53494 PREFACE. THE following account of the Cathedral Church of Durham was addressed to the members of the Berwickshire Naturalists' Club and the Durham and Northumberland Archaeological and Architectural Society, at a joint meeting of the Societies, held in the Cathedral, on September 24, 1879. This will explain the form under which it appears, and, it is to be hoped, excuse the colloquial and somewhat desultory way in which the subject is treated. It was not the intention of the author of the address, when it was given, that it should appear in any other form than that of an abstract in the Transactions of the Societies to which it was delivered. Several of his friends, however, have thought that printed in externa it might be of service as a Guide Book to the Cathedral, and supply what has been too long wanting in illustration of the Church of Durham. To this wish he has assented, but with some reluctance, feeling how inadequate is such a treatment of a subject so important. Some additional matter has been supplied in the notes which will help to make it more useful than it was in its original form.

The Organist is Daniel Cook. The Choir of St Martin-in-the-Fields is directed by Andrew Earis. The anthem by James Whitbourn was commissioned for this service. The Bishop’s pectoral cross is a gift from the Chinese congregations at St Martin-in-the Fields. The jewelled and enamelled crozier was presented to the Cathedral by Canon Myers in 1909. The decorations are rich in symbolism. The main group represents Christ’s charge to St Peter. The Beast below the circular rim represents the powers of evil overcome by Our Lord’s atonement. The figures in the ivory boss below are the Blessed Virgin Mary and Child, St Aldhelm (with a harp), St Osmund (with a Sarum breviary) and Bishop Richard Poore (with a representation of the Cathedral). The bell ringers of St Martin-in-the-Fields have brought a portable tower to ring for their former Vicar. The image of the Hinton St Mary Mosaic is copyright © The Trustees of the British Museum. – 2 – Introductory Note Just on the outskirts of Salisbury is an ancient hamlet (now a flourishing and expanding suburb) called Bishopdown.

  • Power Heraldry
    Power Heraldry by Frank R. Power Comments and questions are welcome. [email protected] Heraldry is the study of coats of arms that are inherited symbols, or devices, called charges, displayed on a shield, or escutcheon, for the purpose of identifying individuals or families. It involves the art of devising, granting, and blazoning arms, tracing genealogies, and determining and ruling on questions of rank or protocol. Heraldry and genealogy have a long, collaborative relationship. Heraldry requires a knowledge of genealogy and heraldry has often been used as evidence to support genealogical conclusions. The basic role of both heraldry and genealogy is to identify and place individuals within the context of their families and if done well, within the wider historical context in which they lived. Heraldry can provide excellent clues and pointers to ancestry. The following tabulation of Power and related names, coats of arms, geographical locations, blazons (text descriptions), crests and mottoes, source references and notes along with the attached geographic distribution map are intended as a starting point for the use of heraldry in fleshing out our Power family history.

  • Pastoral Care According to the Bishops of England and Wales (C.1170 – 1228)
    University of Cambridge Faculty of History PASTORAL CARE ACCORDING TO THE BISHOPS OF ENGLAND AND WALES (C.1170 – 1228) DAVID RUNCIMAN Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge Supervised by DR JULIE BARRAU Emmanuel College, Cambridge This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2019 DECLARATION This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as specified in the text. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit for the relevant Degree Committee. ABSTRACT DAVID RUNCIMAN ‘Pastoral care according to the bishops of England and Wales (c.1170-1228)’ Church leaders have always been seen as shepherds, expected to feed their flock with teaching, to guide them to salvation, and to preserve them from threatening ‘wolves’. In the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries, ideas about the specifics of these pastoral duties were developing rapidly, especially in the schools of Paris and at the papal curia. Scholarly assessments of the bishops of England and Wales in this period emphasise their political and administrative activities, but there is growing interest in their pastoral role. In this thesis, the texts produced by these bishops are examined. These texts, several of which had been neglected, form a corpus of evidence that has never before been assembled. Almost all of them had a pastoral application, and thus they reveal how bishops understood and exercised their pastoral duties.
