Depictions of Power: Representations of Queenly Authority on the Seal of Eleanor of Castile. In the Middle Ages seals were an important means of authenticating documents. They were often attached to charters recording grants of lands or rights. As such, seals were an important symbol of power and authority. The images depicted on seals reveal much about the identity and self- perception of the donor, often as a representation of how they wanted themselves and their authority to be shown. This seal from the collections of Canterbury Cathedral Archives is a beautiful, long oval shape cast in green wax, formerly attached with green and yellow silk threads to a charter granting land and privileges to Canterbury Cathedral Priory. It depicts a female figure, standing wearing a long, flowing, floor-length gown, a cloak across her shoulders and a three-pointed crown atop her head. In her right hand is a floriated sceptre and her left hand is held to her chest. The figure appears to be under an arch and stands atop a pedestal, with a lion passant (on all-fours) beneath her feet. In the background, there are two castles and two lions rampant, one of each on either side of the figure. Along the edge of the seal reads the Latin legend: ALIENORA DEI GRATIA REGINA ANGLIE. (Eleanor, by the grace of God, queen of England) From this combination of images and text we can identify the seal’s owner as being Eleanor of Castile, queen consort of Edward I (1272–1307). Therefore, the castles in the background represent the Kingdom of Castile, as Eleanor was the daughter of Ferdinand III of Castile. These sit alongside the lions rampant (upright on their hind legs), symbolising England. This use of iconography reveals much about how Eleanor perceived her collective family identity, with the castles of Castile alternating with the lions of England, demonstrating the fusion of Eleanor’s marital family, as Edward’s wife, but also her natal family, as a daughter of the king of Castile. Eleanor and Edward married in 1254 as part of a peace treaty between England and Castile. On her seal Eleanor depicts this union as well as her position as the conduit of peace. This was replicated on her tomb at Westminster Abbey, which was decorated with shields emblazoned with castles and lions, as well as the heraldry of the County of Ponthieu (which she inherited from her mother in 1279). The seal also reveals how Eleanor perceived her own power and agency, or at least how she wanted her authority to be represented. On her seal she is depicted as a crowned queen, reiterating her status. The floriated sceptre she holds in her right hand is rather unusual for a woman’s seal. Usually queens are depicted holding orbs, birds or flowers to emphasise their fertility and dynastic motherhood. This is the case in the seal of Eleanor of Aquitaine (Henry II’s queen), which contains all three of these aspects of iconography as a bird sits atop an orb in her left hand. In comparison, Eleanor of Castile is depicted wielding a rod of authority, emphasising the power she wished to exude. This is in contrast to the realities of her queenship, in which Edward permitted her very little political influence. In fact much of Eleanor’s reputation is shaped by her motherhood, giving birth to perhaps as many as 16 children, as well as her acquisition of lands and estates. At some point in its history the seal became detached from its corresponding charter. The two were only reunited in 2003. In the charter Eleanor granted to the prior and convent of Canterbury Cathedral Priory an acre of land in Westerham, with the advowson of the church and a further acre of land in West Cliffe, by Dover, with the advowson of the church. Together, this handsome and carefully constructed seal alongside its charter represent a key aspect of Eleanor’s queenly prerogative: her religious patronage. Eleanor de Clare. Eleanor de Clare, 9th Countess of Gloucester, 6th Lady Marcher of Glamorgan (3 October 1292-30 June 1337) was the daughter of Gilbert de Clare, 6th Earl of Hertford (1243-1295) by his wife Joan Plantagenet, Princess of England. She married Hugh Despenser, 1st Baron Despenser and had nine children by that marriage. She was a granddaughter of King Edward I of England. [1] With her sisters, Elizabeth de Clare and Margaret de Clare, she inherited her father's estates after the death of her brother, Gilbert de Clare, 7th Earl of Hereford at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. [1] She was born in 1292 at Caerphilly Castle in Glamorgan, Wales and was the eldest daughter of Gilbert de Clare, 6th Earl of Hertford and Joan Plantagenet, Princess of England. Contents. De Clare Inheritance. As a co-heiress with her sisters Elizabeth de Clare and Margaret de Clare, in 1314 she inherited the de Clare estates including the Feudal Earldom of Gloucester following the death of her brother, Gilbert de Clare, 7th Earl of Hertford at the Battle of Bannockburn. The partition was not fully settled until 1317. During this period the family seat of Caerphilly Castle was held by the king under the stewardship of Payn de Turberville of Coity Castle. In protest against Turberville's mistreatment, the Welsh nobleman Llywelyn Bren and his supporters launched a surprise attack on 28 January 1316, and besieged Caerphilly Castle, which successfully held out under the command of "The lady of Clare" (almost certainly Eleanor) and a small garrison until relieved by Sir William Montacute on 12 March 1316. [2] Marriage to Hugh Despenser, 1st Baron Despenser. In May 1306 at Westminster, Eleanor de Clare married Hugh Despenser, 1st Baron Despenser, the son of Hugh le Despenser, Earl of Winchester by his wife Isabella de Beauchamp. Hugh Despenser, 1st Baron Despenser thereby became the Lord Marcher of Glamorgan Jure Urxis through his wife and House de Clare's holdings. Her grandfather, King Edward I, granted Eleanor a dowry of 2,000 pounds sterling. Eleanor's husband rose to prominence as the new favourite of her uncle King Edward II of England.

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.

Then Mr. Alvin L. Anderson of Eugene Oregon gave us more interesting information on the English nobility in the Terrell line and we began research on our own.- We found the Los Angeles Public Library had an exceptionally fine genealogical Department which with the history department not only verified what we had been told, but supplied much additional information which we feel all members of our family will be glad to have, and we will herewith make it available in booklet form. It will be noted. that the Terrell family was connected-with the Royal Family of England by the marriage of Sir Thomas Terrell to Alice Marney, a direct descendent of King Edward 1.

  • Maud De Chaworth
    Maud De Chaworth Pg 1/3 Born: 2 Feb 1282 Kidwelly, Carmarthen, England, Wales Married: Henry Plantagenet, Earl of Lancaster Died: 3 Dec 1322 Priory, Hampshire, , England Parents: Patrick de Chaworth & Isable De Beauchamp Maud de Chaworth, also known as Matilda Chaworth, was born February 2, 1282. Although the exact date of her death is unknown, it is estimated that she must have died sometime before December 3, 1322. Parents Maud was the daughter and only child of Sir Patrick de Chaworth (Lord of Kidwelly, in Carmarthenshire, South Wales) and Isabella de Beauchamp, and granddaughter of William de Beauchamp, 9th Earl of Warwick. Her father, Patrick de Chaworth died on July 7th, 1283. He was estimated to live until he was approximately three decades old. Approximately, three years later in 1286, Isabel Beauchamp remarried to Hugh Despenser the Elder and had two sons and four daughters by him. Thus, this made Maud the half-sister of Hugh the younger Despenser. Her mother, Isabel Beauchamp, died in 1306, which is more than two decades after her first husband. Childhood When her father died, Maud was only a year old and left as a rich heiress. However, because she was a mere infant, she became a ward of Queen Eleanor of Castile who was married to King Edward I. (Together, this couple had sixteen children. Only nine out of sixteen survived, however.) Queen Eleanor passed away at Harby in Lincoln-Shire. Once Queen Eleanor past away of malaria in 1290 at approximately fifty years of age, her husband, King Edward I, granted Maud’s marriage to his brother Edmund Plantagenet, Earl of Lancaster on December 30, 1292.
