Vch Chippenham Volume Sources © University of London 2017 VCH CHIPPENHAM VOLUME SOURCES This document is the work of Dr Gordon McKelvie, who was contracted in 2016 by the Wiltshire Victoria County History Trust to examine the major series of printed editions of (primarily) medieval sources, and to extract from them references to Chippenham and the seven nearby parishes that will be included in volume 20 of the Victoria County History of Wiltshire. Each parish is the subject of a separate document, in Word and PDF formats, which have been posted on the Wiltshire pages of the national VCH website. This composite document brings them altogether, to enable rapid searching. The parishes – Bremhill, Chippenham, Christian Malford, Hardenhuish, Kington St Michael, Langley Burrell, Pewsham, and Tytherton Kellaways – are presented here in alphabetical order. The series of sources consulted, with exclusions and cut-off dates where relevant, are as follows: Close Rolls Patent Rolls Fine Rolls Charter Rolls Liberate Rolls Curia Regis Rolls Ancient Deeds Acts of the Privy Council Committee for Compounding IPMs Inquisitions Misc Fees/ Feudal Aids State Papers Domestic Letters & Papers H8 Papal Registers Record Commissioners publications (where relevant, not Domesday) Rolls Series vols (chronicles, etc., relevant to Wilts, and Red Book of the Exchequer) Pipe Roll Soc volumes English Episcopal Acta – Sarum diocese Canterbury & York Soc, bishops registers – Sarum diocese HMC reports Regesta Regum Anglo-Norm These are by no means the only sources that yield information about the history of the Chippenham area in the medieval and early modern periods.

I DEDICATE THIS BOOK TO FAITH AND JACK AND MY NLECES AND NEPHEWS. n FOREWORD. 3T was suggested to me by my cousin, Alfred Ransford of Hunstanton, that being a native of Stratford-on-Avon, baptized there in the historic Church of Holy Trinity (Register Certificate No. 70;\ Page 89), and the grand-daughter of a Rainsford of the Clifford Chambers line, I should compile into a little book some of his genealogical notes relating to the family, which he has collected over a period of thirty years, in­ spired and assisted by a kinsman, the late Frederick Vine Rainsford, who began turning over Wills and docu-· ments at the age of eighteen, and devoted a great part of sixty years to research work. This volume is a brief outline of a typical English family, living in the beautiful homes of our Empire, yet facing the vicissitudes oflife, with its struggles and successes; amidst the hardships and dra\vbacks of a much less advanced civilization ; who, like numerous others, in response to the call of King and Country, have been leaders of men, in the Church and Services, in the legal and

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.

  • Joan Plantagenet: the Fair Maid of Kent by Susan W
    RICE UNIVERSITY JOAN PLANTAGANET THE FAIR MAID OF KENT by Susan W. Powell A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE DEGREE OF Master of Arts Thesis Director's Signature: Houston, Texas April, 1973 ABSTRACT Joan Plantagenet: The Fair Maid of Kent by Susan W. Powell Joan plantagenet, Known as the Fair Maid of Kent, was born in 1328. She grew to be one of the most beautiful and influential women of her age, Princess of Wales by her third marriage and mother of King Richard II. The study of her life sheds new light on the role of an intelligent woman in late fourteenth century England and may reveal some new insights into the early regnal years of her son. There are several aspects of Joan of Kent's life which are of interest. The first chapter will consist of a biographical sketch to document the known facts of a life which spanned fifty-seven years of one of the most vivid periods in English history. Joan of Kent's marital history has been the subject of historical confusion and debate. The sources of that confusion will be discussed, the facts clarified, and a hypothesis suggested as to the motivations behind the apparent actions of the personages involved. There has been speculation that it was Joan of Kent's garter for which the Order of the Garter was named. This theory was first advanced by Selden and has persisted in this century in the articles of Margaret Galway. It has been accepted by May McKisack and other modern historians.

  • English Duplicates of Lost Virginia Records
    T iPlCTP \jrIRG by Lot L I B RAHY OF THL UN IVER.SITY Of ILLINOIS 975.5 D4-5"e ILL. HJST. survey Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2012 with funding from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign http://archive.org/details/englishduplicateOOdesc English Duplicates of Lost Virginia Records compiled by Louis des Cognets, Jr. © 1958, Louis des Cognets, Jr. P.O. Box 163 Princeton, New Jersey This book is dedicated to my grandmother ANNA RUSSELL des COGNETS in memory of the many years she spent writing two genealogies about her Virginia ancestors \ i FOREWORD This book was compiled from material found in the Public Record Office during the summer of 1957. Original reports sent to the Colonial Office from Virginia were first microfilmed, and then transcribed for publication. Some of the penmanship of the early part of the 18th Century was like copper plate, but some was very hard to decipher, and where the same name was often spelled in two different ways on the same page, the task was all the more difficult. May the various lists of pioneer Virginians contained herein aid both genealogists, students of colonial history, and those who make a study of the evolution of names. In this event a part of my debt to other abstracters and compilers will have been paid. Thanks are due the Staff at the Public Record Office for many heavy volumes carried to my desk, and for friendly assistance. Mrs. William Dabney Duke furnished valuable advice based upon her considerable experience in Virginia research. Mrs .Olive Sheridan being acquainted with old English names was especially suited to the secretarial duties she faithfully performed.

Farming, as in many parts of the world, formed the basis of society for thousands of years and remains an important industry even today. But in Medieval Britain it, along with religion, provided a framework for the concept that we know better today as taxation. Tithes – payments of one tenth of a farmer's produce - were outlined for the Christian world in the Bible: ‘...bring all the tithes of that year’s produce and store it in your towns...’ (Deuteronomy 14:22-29).
