Preface In this list cadet, associated, and stem families are arranged in a single entry when substantial property passed between one and the other providing continuity of parliamentary representation (even, as was the case in a few instances, when no blood or marriage relationship existed). Subsidiary/cadet families are usually grouped under the oldest, richest, or most influential stem family. Female MPs are counted with their birth families, or, if not born into a parliamentary family, with their husband’s family.

  • Box List of Uncatalogued Collections
    ARUNDEL CASTLE ARCHIVES The box lists: a general introduction The Duke of Norfolk’s archives, as part of his ‘pre-eminent chattels’ are subject to conditions imposed by law on the succession of the Dukedom. Accordingly, following the death of Miles the 17th Duke of Norfolk in 2002, various measures have been taken to make the archives more accessible to the general public. The production of these lists is part of that process. The Library and Archive Office at Arundel Castle, established by Duke Miles in the late 1970s under the leadership of Dr. John Martin Robinson, who still heads the team, has been open to bona fide researchers since its inauguration. But the only readily-available catalogues of the archives for potential researchers were those published by the former County Archivist, Dr. Francis Steer. In 1994 I was appointed to begin listing the un-catalogued material, as I continue to do. The measures that have been taken to spread awareness of the archive include an annual exhibition as part of the public tour of the Castle. Additionally, the Library catalogue aand Dr. Steer’s archive catalogues have been put on the Castle web site, so researchers can prepare for a research visit far more easily. The pre-eminence of the Howard family in national politics from the medieval period onwards, means that our researchers come from all over the world. Internet access, not only through the web site but also through email enquiries, is a great leap forward. A complete Guide to the Collections was produced in 2009 as part of the conditional exemption requirements and is also now on the Castle web site.

  • 1.2 Battle in the English Civil War and Interregnum
    BATTLE IN THE ENGLISH CIVIL WAR AND INTERREGNUM This article explores why the English Civil War and Interregnum 1642- 1660 seem to have been a quiet time for Battle. We have found no evidence of protest, skirmish or military action in or near the town. The reasons for this are interesting ; and we look at some notable characters along the way. INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW The English Civil War and the Protectorate which followed it, comprising the period 1642- 1660, had three phases of military activity and many phases of political and religious change. The conflict began as a struggle between the King and Parliament about Charles’ insistence on religious reform through Archbishop Laud, particularly the revised Prayer Book and amended ritual; and about his equally firm insistence on a literal interpretation of the Divine Right of Kings, containing only a subservient role for Parliament. The Battle of Naseby in 1645 and the execution of Charles in 1649 clarified that the monarchy no longer had that authority, but Parliament, the Lord Protector and the Army still had to settle who was in charge. As Lord Protector, Oliver Cromwell found Parliaments as troublesome as Charles had, for different reasons, and dismissed them; Parliament found that its authority was as subservient to the Army as it had been to Charles, again for different reasons. The Army found itself divided not only along religious grounds, but also politically, as new sects such as the Levellers, Ranters and Diggers – some of them hundreds of years ahead of their time – developed in a febrile atmosphere of debate and experiment.
