  • The Fusilier Origins in Tower Hamlets the Tower Was the Seat of Royal
    The Fusilier Origins in Tower Hamlets The Tower was the seat of Royal power, in addition to being the Sovereign’s oldest palace, it was the holding prison for competitors and threats, and the custodian of the Sovereign’s monopoly of armed force until the consolidation of the Royal Arsenal at Woolwich in 1805. As such, the Tower Hamlets’ traditional provision of its citizens as a loyal garrison to the Tower was strategically significant, as its possession and protection influenced national history. Possession of the Tower conserved a foothold in the capital, even for a sovereign who had lost control of the City or Westminster. As such, the loyalty of the Constable and his garrison throughout the medieval, Tudor and Stuart eras was critical to a sovereign’s (and from 1642 to 1660, Parliament’s) power-base. The ancient Ossulstone Hundred of the County of Middlesex was that bordering the City to the north and east. With the expansion of the City in the later Medieval period, Ossulstone was divided into four divisions; the Tower Division, also known as Tower Hamlets. The Tower Hamlets were the military jurisdiction of the Constable of the Tower, separate from the lieutenancy powers of the remainder of Middlesex. Accordingly, the Tower Hamlets were sometimes referred to as a county-within-a-county. The Constable, with the ex- officio appointment of Lord Lieutenant of Tower Hamlets, held the right to call upon citizens of the Tower Hamlets to fulfil garrison guard duty at the Tower. Early references of the unique responsibility of the Tower Hamlets during the reign of Bloody Mary show that in 1554 the Privy Council ordered Sir Richard Southwell and Sir Arthur Darcye to muster the men of the Tower Hamlets "whiche owe their service to the Towre, and to give commaundement that they may be in aredynes for the defence of the same”1.

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

MYNDE circa 1760 To The King's Most Excellent Majesty SIRE, laying this History and Inventory of the Armouries of the Tower INof London before Your Majesty, I cannot but feel that, in a work of this nature, it would be unfitting that I should take credit for more than the compilation and collation of a large amount of work done by others in the past. In tracing the changes that have taken place from the time when the Tower was a Storehouse of Military Equipment up to the present day, when it is the resting place of a Collection of Royal and Historical Armours many of which are without equal in Europe, I have availed myself of the National Records and also of the generous assistance of living authorities who have made a special study of the several subjects which are dealt with in these pages. I therefore ask Your Majesty's gracious permission to acknowledge here my indebtedness and gratitude to my predecessor Viscount Dillon, first Curator of the Armouries, who has unreservedly placed at my disposal the vast amount of notes, photographs, and researches, which he had collected during over twenty years of office.

  • Historical Introduction
    HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION. THE Manuscript volume from which this work of the Camden Society is derived has been long known as a record of great value: and has been quoted as such by several of the most inquiring and painstaking of our historical writers. Having come into the collection of the founder of the Harleian Library, so highly was its importance estimated by Humphrey Wanley, his librarian, that he described it at greater length than any other to which he eva- de voted his attention. His account of its contents occupies no fewer than sixty-five pages of the folio Catalogue of the Harleian Manu- scripts (vol. i. pp. 256-311). It was found, however, some years ago, on comparison of this calendar with the book itself, that it was far from presenting a complete view of the whole contents of the Manuscript, many entries being arbitrarily passed over, in the pro- portion of nearly two-fifths. In consequence it was thought desirable, with a view to an improved Catalogue of the Harleian Collection, which was then in contemplation, to make a fresh abstract of the volume. This was executed in the Manuscript Department of the British Museum in the year 1835; and, as there was no immediate prospect of its being printed, it was made accessible to the public by being classed as the Additional MS. 11,269. This latter book, however, being a mere abstract, page by page, unprovided with any index, is not at present of the least utility, except perhaps to a reader who might require assistance in his attempts to decypher the original.

  • The Tower of London Mighty Fortress, Royal Palace, Infamous Prison
    The Tower of London Mighty Fortress, Royal Palace, Infamous Prison Tiernan Chapman-Apps Before the Tower William the Conqueror was a distant cousin of Edward the Confessor, he wanted to be the King of England. He said he had been promised the throne in 1051 and was meant to be supported by Harold the Earl of Wessex son and heir of the Earl of Godwin in 1064 who swore to uphold his right to be king. However Harold went back on his promise and was an usurper. Edward died having no children and both Harold and William wanted the throne. William invaded the country and Harold was killed in the battle of Hastings by an arrow and then a sword of a knight William was crowned on Christmas Day 1066 Pictures from top to bottom William the Conqueror Edward the Confessor Harold the Earl of Wessex or Harold II The building and construction Building of the Tower of London actually began just after William the Conqueror captured the city in 1066, Immediately after his coronation (Christmas 1066), William I the Conqueror began to erect fortifications on the South East corner of the site to dominate the indigenous mercantile community and to control access to the Upper Pool of London, the major port area before the construction of docks farther downstream in the 19th century. 12 years later the building of the White Tower began to take place and other defenses were developed and made bigger during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. At the end of King Edwards reign in 1307 the Tower of London was a huge and imposing castle.

  • Descendants of Adrian De Lucy by Norman Lucey (Revised)
    .The Descendants of Adrian de Lucy Published by Norman Lucey e-mail: [email protected] © Copyright 1999-2020, Norman Lucey. All rights reserved. Not to be reproduced without prior written permission The following information first published in 1999; expanded and most recently revised 1 st July 2020: ___________________________________________________________ Generation No. 1 1 1. A DRIAN OR ROBERT DE LUCY was born Abt. 1080 in Lucé-sur-Orne, in the Baliwick of Passeis, near Domfront, Normandy, France, and died Bef. 1131. He married A VELINE G HOT OR G OTH Abt. 1095. She was born Abt. 1080 in Lucé, nr Maine, Normandy, France, and died Aft. February 1130/31. Notes for A DRIAN OR ROBERT DE LUCY : Information on the earliest records relating to the Lucy family at this time:- Richardo de Luceio (presumed son of Adrian) is first mentioned in February 1131 together with his mother Aveline, kinswomen and heiress of William Ghot or Goth, in the charter of Seéz. The surname Goth is apparently difficult to read in the original. It could actually read 'Goz'. Horace Round considered 'Goz' to be variant of 'Goiz' and 'Guiz', recognised variants of 'Gouviz' and 'Gouvis'. It should also be noted that Thurstan Goz was viscount of the encompassing county of Hiémois between 1017 and 1025 and Lord of Falaise. There is also a record in a charter regarding Sheppey Monastery c1131 referring to a fee and a half of plough-land of Richard de Lucy in the Isles of Sheppey and Grain, acquired by William Archbishop of Canterbury (1123-1136), from Aveline, the mother of the aforesaid Richard de Lucy of Newington.

  • E Bow Common a Nuisance; William Cotton
    Overview of Section E Section page FULL OVERVIEW REFERENCES Tracing a little of the History of the Parish 191 Overview of section E E 192-198 Bow Common from Tudor times to 1853 in maps E 199-211 Bow Common – a Nuisance to the whole East End E 211-215 Bow Common from 1862-1914 E 216-217 William Cotton E 218-221 The first St. Paul’s, Bow Common is built E 222-226 William Cotton is honoured by the Diocese - 191 - In the beginning … The story of St. Paul’s, Bow Common cannot be just the story of a notable modern church building. Were this purely an architectural monument there would be little need to go further. However, for those on the ground who use the church to worship in, or to gather for community events, its meaning extends beyond all that has been explored so far in this account, into the context of their lives and community and history. Every Church of England church does not just stand in isolation as a place of worship but is also the church of a parish – a geographical area in which there is pastoral care, ministry and service, irrespective of any religious adherence or none. The concerns of a parish should also be the concern of the minister and people of the parish church. It is interesting that in the annual election of churchwardens, the electorate are not just those on the particular church’s electoral roll of church members but all who are on the civil electoral roll of the parish! The Incumbent and churchwardens have a duty and ministry to the whole parish & not just to the members of a given church.
