Lady Katherine Gordon, the Wife of Perkin Warbeck, Is As Questionable As the Identity of Her Husband
LadyKatherine Gordon: A GenealogicalPuzzle WENDY E. A. MOORHEN It is a curious quirk of history that the descent of Lady Katherine Gordon, the wife of Perkin Warbeck, is as questionable as the identity of her husband. The controversy of Lady Katherine's descent stems from the question of who was her mother? Was Lady Katherine the daughter of the Earl of Huntly’s second wife, Princess Annabella Stewart (a daughter of James I) or his third wife, Lady Elizabeth Hay (a daughter of the first earl of Erroll)? Lady Katherine mam'ed the pretender to the English throne a few weeks after Warbeck had arrived in Scotland. He was welcomed as Richard, Duke of York and granted a generous pension by the Scottish king. James IV sealed their friendship and alliance by providing one of his own cousins as Warbeck’s bride. The consequence of Elizabeth Hay being Lady Katherine’s mother, as opposed to the- Stewart princess, has been described as ‘dramatically diminish[ing] the significance of James’ [IV of Scotland] gesture by seriously reducing the status of his proffered bride, and thus of the level of his own support of Perkin." Elizabeth Hay should not be dismissed too hastily, however, as she was descended from two daughters of King Robert II. As well as being politically advantageous for Warbeck, the marriage may well have been a love match. A letter has survived in the Spanish archives which is now attributed to Warbeck and written to his future wife, ‘I shall, perhaps, be the happiest of all your admirers, and the happiest man on eanh, since I have reason to hope you will think me worthy of your love’.2 On 6 July 1497 Warbeck left Scotland and sailed for Ireland accompanied by his wife who chose to share the precarious adventure upon which her husband was about embark. -
1 the NAVY in the ENGLISH CIVIL WAR Submitted by Michael James
1 THE NAVY IN THE ENGLISH CIVIL WAR Submitted by Michael James Lea-O’Mahoney, to the University of Exeter, as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in September 2011. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. 2 ABSTRACT This thesis is concerned chiefly with the military role of sea power during the English Civil War. Parliament’s seizure of the Royal Navy in 1642 is examined in detail, with a discussion of the factors which led to the King’s loss of the fleet and the consequences thereafter. It is concluded that Charles I was outmanoeuvred politically, whilst Parliament’s choice to command the fleet, the Earl of Warwick, far surpassed him in popularity with the common seamen. The thesis then considers the advantages which control of the Navy provided for Parliament throughout the war, determining that the fleet’s protection of London, its ability to supply besieged outposts and its logistical support to Parliamentarian land forces was instrumental in preventing a Royalist victory. Furthermore, it is concluded that Warwick’s astute leadership went some way towards offsetting Parliament’s sporadic neglect of the Navy. The thesis demonstrates, however, that Parliament failed to establish the unchallenged command of the seas around the British Isles. -

The Proceedings in the Case of Earldom of Mar
THE PROCEEDINGS CASE OF THE EARLDOM OE MAR: 1867—1885. A RESUME BY E. B. SWINTON. " My thanes and kinsmen, Henceforth be Earls ; the first that ever Scotland In such an honor named." ,, LONDON: HARBISON AND SONS, 59, PALL MALL, BOOKSELLERS TO HEE MAJESTY AND H.E.H. TIIE PEINCE OF WALES. 1889. Price One Shilling. THE PROCEEDINGS IN THE CASE OF THE EARLDOM OF MAR. On the 17th July of this year* the Earl of G-alloway in the House of Lords moved a resolution regarding the Mar peerage. He desired, in effect, to have it resolved that the present Earl of Mar and Baron Garioch was the only Earl of Mar, and that an order of the House of Lords of February 26th, 1875, which declared the Earl of Kellie to be also an Earl of Mar, should be cancelled : —" What they were asked to do," according to one of the speakers, the Earl of Rosebery, was " to declare that there were not two Earls of Mar ; whereas three years ago they had solemnly declared that there were ; " and, according to the report of the debate in the " Times," the motion was lost by a majority of 27 in a House of 51. This is the last public resuscitation of a long-stand- ing and involved dispute ; and it is proposed to give some account of the most interesting inquiry of the kind which has taken place in this century—interesting for its in- trinsic historical merits and research, and for the perplexed proceedings following upon it—not for any details of questions of disputed legitimacy which often accompany such investigations. -

John Sparrow of Essex
John Sparrow of Essex Jacob Boehme’s foremost 17th century English translator: John Sparrow (1615–1670) of Essex Ariel Hessayon Goldsmiths, University of London John Sparrow (1615–1670), the foremost seventeenth-century English translator of the writings of the German Lutheran mystic Jacob Boehme (c.1575–1624) is a name unfamiliar to many students of early modern England. What little fame he enjoys is largely a result of the efforts of a small group of scholars interested in the reception of the Teutonic Philosopher’s writings in the British Isles. 1 There is a brief entry on Sparrow in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. Unfortunately it is of little * Earlier versions of this chapter were read at conferences held at Reading University and at Görlitz.
