  • Parish of Skipton*
    294 HISTORY OF CRAVEN. PARISH OF SKIPTON* HAVE reserved for this parish, the most interesting part of my subject, a place in Wharfdale, in order to deduce the honour and fee of Skipton from Bolton, to which it originally belonged. In the later Saxon times Bodeltone, or Botltunef (the town of the principal mansion), was the property of Earl Edwin, whose large possessions in the North were among the last estates in the kingdom which, after the Conquest, were permitted to remain in the hands of their former owners. This nobleman was son of Leofwine, and brother of Leofric, Earls of Mercia.J It is somewhat remarkable that after the forfeiture the posterity of this family, in the second generation, became possessed of these estates again by the marriage of William de Meschines with Cecilia de Romille. This will be proved by the following table:— •——————————;——————————iLeofwine Earl of Mercia§=j=......... Leofric §=Godiva Norman. Edwin, the Edwinus Comes of Ermenilda=Ricardus de Abrineis cognom. Domesday. Goz. I———— Matilda=.. —————— I Ranulph de Meschines, Earl of Chester, William de Meschines=Cecilia, daughter and heir of Robert Romille, ob. 1129. Lord of Skipton. But it was before the Domesday Survey that this nobleman had incurred the forfeiture; and his lands in Craven are accordingly surveyed under the head of TERRA REGIS. All these, consisting of LXXVII carucates, lay waste, having never recovered from the Danish ravages. Of these-— [* The parish is situated partly in the wapontake of Staincliffe and partly in Claro, and comprises the townships of Skipton, Barden, Beamsley, Bolton Abbey, Draughton, Embsay-with-Eastby, Haltoneast-with-Bolton, and Hazlewood- with-Storithes ; and contains an area of 24,7893.

  • Why Was Edward De Vere Defamed on Stage—And His Death Unnoticed?
    Why Was Edward de Vere Defamed on Stage—and His Death Unnoticed? by Katherine Chiljan dward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford, died on June 24, 1604. To our knowledge, there was neither public recognition of his death nor Enotice made in personal letters or diaries. His funeral, if one oc- curred, went unremarked. Putting aside his greatness as the poet-playwright “William Shakespeare,” his pen name, Oxford was one of the most senior nobles in the land and the Lord Great Chamberlain of England. During his life, numerous authors dedicated 27 books on diverse subjects to Oxford; of these authors, seven were still alive at the time of his death,1 including John Lyly and Anthony Munday, his former secretaries who were also dramatists. Moreover, despite the various scandals that touched him, Oxford remained an important courtier throughout his life: Queen Elizabeth granted him a £1,000 annuity in 1586 for no stated reason—an extraordinary gesture for the frugal monarch—and King James continued this annuity after he ascend- ed the throne in 1603. Why, then, the silence after Oxford had died? Could the answer be because he was a poet and playwright? Although such activity was considered a déclassé or even fantastical hobby for a nobleman, recognition after death would have been socially acceptable. For example, the courtier poet Sir Philip Sidney (d. 1586) had no creative works published in his lifetime, but his pastoral novel, Arcadia, was published four years after his death, with Sidney’s full name on the title page. Three years after that, Sidney’s sister, the Countess of Pembroke, published her own version of it.

  • 'The Political Career of Edward Sackville, Fourth Earl of Dorset (1590-1652)'
    'THE POLITICAL CAREER OF EDWARD SACKVILLE, FOURTH EARL OF DORSET (1590-1652)' BY DAVID LAWRENCE SMITH SELWYN COLLEGE A Dissertation submitted in the Faculty of History for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Michae1mas Term 1989 ABSTRACT Title: 'The Poli tical Career of Edward Sackvi1le, fourth Earl of Dorset (1590-1652)' Author: David Lawrence Smith, Selwyn College This dissertation seeks to illuminate early Stuart political history by a study of one important public figure. The fourth Earl of Dorset was a member of Charles I's Privy Council, Lord Chamberlain to Queen Henrietta Maria, and Lord Lieutenant of Sussex and Middlesex. He attended all the Parliaments of the 1620's, and sat in the Short and Long Parliaments. He was active in Court and Council throughout the 1630's, and sided with the King in the Civil War. He consistently advocated harmony and reconciliation in a period of growing polarisation. This study investigates Dorset's perception of early seventeenth century political developments, his response to them, and the reasons why he and other moderates failed to prevent civil war. It thus contributes to current debates both on the early modern peerage, and on the origins and nature of the English Civil War. The first chapter looks at Dorset's life and career up to the age of thirty. In Chapter Two a discussion of his rapid rise to political prominence during the 1620's explores the reasons for his success and the nature of his motivation. Chapter Three investigates Dorset's activities as a Privy Councillor and as the Queen's Lord Chamberlain in the 1630's.

    “In all gudly haste”: The Formation of Marriage in Scotland, c. 1350-1600 by Heather Parker A thesis presented to the University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philsophy in History Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Heather Parker, March 2012 ABSTRACT “IN ALL GUDLY HASTE”: THE FORMATION OF MARRIAGE IN SCOTLAND, C. 1350-1600 Heather Parker Advisor: University of Guelph, 2012 Elizabeth Ewan This dissertation examines the formation of marriage in Scotland between the mid- fourteenth century and the late sixteenth century. In particular, it focuses on betrothals, marriage negotiations, ritual, and the place that these held in late medieval Scottish society. This study extends to the generation following the Reformation to examine the extent to which the Reformation influenced the marriage planning of wealthy Scots. It concludes that much of the social impact of the Reformation was not reflected in family life until at least a generation after reform. Scottish society and culture was influenced both by contemporary literature, which discussed the role of marriage formation, and by concurrent events involving high-profile marriages. These helped to define the context of marriage for society as a whole. This work relies heavily on the pre-nuptial contracts of lairds (the Scottish gentry) and nobles, which reflected certain aspects of their marriage patterns and strategies. The context and clauses of an extensive group of 272 Scottish marriage contracts from published and archival collections illuminate aspects of the formation of Scottish marriage, such as the land and money that changed hands, the extent to which brides and grooms were influenced by their kin, and the timelines for betrothals.

    The History of Parliament Trust REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES 2015-16 Annual review - 1 - Editorial Board Oct 2010 Objectives and activities of the History of Parliament Trust The History of Parliament is a major academic project to create a scholarly reference work describing the members, constituencies and activities of the Parliament of England and the United Kingdom. The volumes either published or in preparation cover the House of Commons from 1386 to 1868 and the House of Lords from 1603 to 1832. They are widely regarded as an unparalleled source for British political, social and local history. The volumes consist of detailed studies of elections and electoral politics in each constituency, and of closely researched accounts of the lives of everyone who was elected to Parliament in the period, together with surveys drawing out the themes and discoveries of the research and adding information on the operation of Parliament as an institution. The History has published 21,420 biographies and 2,831 constituency surveys in ten sets of volumes (41 volumes in all). They deal with 1386-1421, 1509-1558, 1558-1603, 1604-29, 1660- 1690, 1690-1715, 1715-1754, 1754-1790, 1790-1820 and 1820-32. All of these articles are now available on www.historyofparliamentonline.org . The History’s staff of professional historians is currently researching the House of Commons in the periods 1422-1504, 1640-1660, and 1832- 1868, and the House of Lords in the periods 1603-60 and 1660-1832.

  • Six Wills Relating to Cobham Hall
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 11 1877 ( 199 ) SIX WILLS RELATING TO COBHAM HALL. THE six testators whose wills we now print were, all of them, owners of Cobham Hall, during the sixteenth or seventeenth centuries, and all, save one perhaps, had resided therein. Their wills are given in the order of their dates, and succeed one another as follows:— 1. William Brooke, Lord Cobham.. 2. Trances, Countess of Kildare, wife of Henry Lord Cobham. 3. Prances Stuart, Duchess of Richmond and Lenox. 4. Charles Stuart, Duke of Richmond and Lenox. 5. Sir Joseph "Williamson. 6. Lady Catherine O'Brien. Eor copies of three of these wills (Nos. 2, 3, and 4) we are indebted to the courtesy of Mr. James Grreen- street, who kindly transcribed them for us at Somerset House. I have prefixed memoirs of the testators, and have appended to the wills such notes as seemed to be necessary. Copies of the wills of Sir Joseph Williamson and Lady Catherine O'Brien, are among the Earl of Darnley's archives at Cobham Hall. Lord Darnley courteously permitted me to transcribe them. Of William Lord Cobham's will, there is a copy in the British Museum (Lansdowne MS. No. 830), whence I transcribed it. W. A. SCOTT ROBERTSON. 200 WILLS RELATING TO COBHAM HALL. WILLIAM BROOKE, LORD COBHAM. This able and accomplished nobleman was eldest of the ten sons of George Brooke, Lord Cobham, by his wife Ann, daughter of Edmond first Baron Bray and co-heir of John, the Second Lord Bray. Upon the magnificent tomb which William Brooke erected, in Cobham Church, to the memory of his parents, he emblazoned nine of the eleven armorial quarterings to which his mother was entitled; she died in September, 1559, and he celebrated her praises in some Latin verses, which have been thus happily rendered by Mr.
