'rAYLOil. 'l'he etymology of a word, particularly of a proper name, not only settles the original orthography, but sometimes furnishes light upon the history of a people or a family which otherwise would have passed into oblivion. 'l'he word "Bromley" is composed of two Saxon words-Hrorn (broom, whence bramble) and leagh or leah (ley or lea) (u pince, meadow or gruss land) meuning sedge­ land. 'l'he eonnty of Kent, England, was tlic first whereon the Anglo-Saxons, under Hengist and IIorsa, set foot; low-lying mea­ dow nnd swa!Up lam.I, in large part, between the River 'l'humes and the sea, there must have been some part of it especially noted for its crops of broomsedge and brambles, and that part was some­ where in the neighborhood of the present city of Bromley, a few miles from Lonclon. 'L'he Saxons were accustomed to hold certain portions-Brom-leys-of their lands in common-a euslom con­ tinued by their descendants in New England-but as the popula­ tion inereaseu these commons were encroached upon and finally disappeared. When surnames came into vogue after the Crusades, Bome large landctl proprietor, with extensive brornfoys, took £or his patronymic the name applied to his fields, aml thus established the Bromley gens. lt will be note<l that, contrary to the usual rule, in this case the town was named after the family, not the family after the town. The etymology o{ the Bromley name proves the family to have been one of pure Anglo-Saxon strain; that its Eng­ lish tlomicile indicates a very early migration-maybe they were among that puissant warrior band who, too eagerly for the Britons' welfare, accepted a pressing invitation to their shores-and I am pretty sure they were Roundheads and square heads as well. It will be further noted that the first syllable of the name shou1d be spelled B-r-o-m (vowel pronounced as o in hot). In the earliest records which we find in Warwick, R. I., the name is always spelled Bromley. 'l'he b in Christopher's name evidently was a phonetic enor-some people say chimbley for chimney. Dewey 1st dropped the interloper and Isaac restored the ancient spelling and pronunciation. But the change of the vowel o to u before m and n, is often met with among people whose ears are unattuned to the niceties of sound, and used to be considered a sure sign by which to xi 'rHE ORIGIN OF 'l'HE NAME BRO:MLEY identify a simon-pure Yankee. Still one has the right, both in law and custom, to write his family cognomen as he pleases, so long as it is recognizable, and I have known several families the branches of which, through ignorance or caprice, differed in this regard. Didn't the immortal Shakespeare leave half a dozen autographs, no two of which were alike? Then why should common mortals re­ frain from following his example? The Bromley, Brommeley, Bromiley, Bromlay, Bramley, Brum­ ley, Brumbly, one and the same :family, is among the oldest in this country; the earlier members had numerous progeny, and when they began to scatter numbers of the emigrants left no trace behind. To connect the various branches in consequence of the long period of time, 27'0 years or more, it is necessary that we ascertain one's ancestors for several generations. In New England, where especial attention was paid by township and church officials to family rec­ ords, the task was not difficult; but in the South few can go back beyond the grandfather or great-grandfather. Some of our own kin settled in Maryland or Virginia before the Revolution. 'rhe Bromley family has not:ping to be ashamed of-and much to be proud. '!'hey have made an impress upon communities among which they have dwelt. And when you cross the water to our an­ cestral English home, you will find that not only one, but several, have been knighted or otherwise honored for services in the council or the field. xii ENGLISH BROMLEYS .

It happened that in a battle near Corby, the french fell so furi­ ously, that they got away with the Kings Standard of Guinne, to the great dismay of our Army. But Bromley heart had no room for fear or grief, anger had so fully possessed it insomuch that valiantly he recovered the captive standard and by his exemplary prowess largely contributed to that days victory. Hereupon Hugh Stafford, Lord Boucher, conferred upon him a yearly pension of forty :pounds during life.

EDMUND PLOWDEN' MASTER TREASURER OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE (1561-1570) RICHARD O'SULLIVAN D ENUO SURREXIT DOMUS: the Latin inscription high on the outside wall of this stately building announces and records the fact that in the year 1949, under the hand of our Royal Treasurer, Elizabeth the Queen, the Hall of the Middle Temple rose again and became once more the centre of our professional life and aspiration. To those who early in the war had seen the destruction of these walls and the shattering of the screen and the disappearance of the Minstrels' Gallery; and to those who saw the timbers of the roof ablaze upon a certain -midnight in March 1944, the restoration of Domus must seem something of a miracle. All these things naturally link our thought with the work and the memory of Edmund Plowden who, in the reign of an earlier Queen Elizabeth, devoted his years as Treasurer and as Master of the House to the building of this noble Hall.

  • George Abbot 1562-1633 Archbishop of Canterbury
    English Book Owners in the Seventeenth Century: A Work in Progress Listing How much do we really know about patterns and impacts of book ownership in Britain in the seventeenth century? How well equipped are we to answer questions such as the following?: • What was a typical private library, in terms of size and content, in the seventeenth century? • How does the answer to that question vary according to occupation, social status, etc? • How does the answer vary over time? – how different are ownership patterns in the middle of the century from those of the beginning, and how different are they again at the end? Having sound answers to these questions will contribute significantly to our understanding of print culture and the history of the book more widely during this period. Our current state of knowledge is both imperfect, and fragmented. There is no directory or comprehensive reference source on seventeenth-century British book owners, although there are numerous studies of individual collectors. There are well-known names who are regularly cited in this context – Cotton, Dering, Pepys – and accepted wisdom as to collections which were particularly interesting or outstanding, but there is much in this area that deserves to be challenged. Private Libraries in Renaissance England and Books in Cambridge Inventories have developed a more comprehensive approach to a particular (academic) kind of owner, but they are largely focused on the sixteenth century. Sears Jayne, Library Catalogues of the English Renaissance, extends coverage to 1640, based on book lists found in a variety of manuscript sources. Evidence of book ownership in this period is manifested in a variety of ways, which need to be brought together if we are to develop that fuller picture.

  • Sir Thomas Bromley Was Born Around 1530 in Shropshire, the Son of George Bromley and Jane Lacon
    P R O F I L E Sir Thomas Bromley was born around 1530 in Shropshire, the son of George Bromley and Jane Lacon. His father’s cousin, also Sir Thomas Bromley, was Chief Justice of the King’s Bench during the reign of Mary I. The family had a close connection with the Inner Temple; his father was a Reader at the Inn in 1508 and 1509, and his brother (Sir George Bromley) was elected Treasurer in 1567. Sir Thomas himself was elected Treasurer of the Inn in 1573. Bromley was admitted to Clifford’s Inn in 1547, and became a member of the Inner Temple in the early 1550s. In 1555 he was appointed as one of the auditors of the Inn’s steward, and in 1557 he was an auditor for the Treasurer. When his cousin the Chief Justice died in 1555, he left the younger Sir Thomas an allowance of 40 shillings a year for ten years if he continued his S I R legal studies: Bromley did so, receiving a Bachelor of Civil Law degree from the University of Oxford in 1560. In the same year he married Elizabeth Fortescue, with whom he had eight T H O M A S children. B R O M L E Y Throughout the 1550s and 1560s Bromley was active politically, sitting as an MP for Bridgnorth, Wigan, and Guildford. He also progressed in his legal career; he was active in the Inner Temple’s affairs, first attending the Inn’s Parliament in 1563, and A D M I T 1 5 5 0 serving again as an auditor for the Treasurer in 1564, as an R E A D E R 1 5 6 6 ; attendant on the Reader in 1565, and becoming Reader himself T R E A S U R E R 1 5 7 3 - 7 5 ; in 1566, lecturing on the Statutes of Attaints.

Philosophical inquiry was used to examine his published writing, the roots and logic of major propositions contributing to his mature concept of musicking, and published criticisms to date of Small’s philosophy. Thereafter, Small’s philosophy of musicking was investigated in terms of its explanatory power in building a theory of choral singing pedagogy in prison contexts. In that regard, Small’s concept of musicking was compared to major propositions articulated by traditional aesthetic philosophies of music, and contrasted with three contemporary North American philosophies of music education (Reimer, Jorgensen Elliott) with respect to the logical capacity of each philosophical framework to respond to two primary assumptions: (a) choral singing typically entails the articulation and communication of words (“the word factor”) and (b) choral singing evidences a union between musical agent and musical instrument (“the somatic factor”).

    Glossary of Names by Grace Ioppolo This Glossary records all names of persons with whom Alleyn notes in the Diary that he had a personal or professional relationship in their own right. Thus, for example, the names of baptized children of a friend or associate and the unnamed relatives or guests of other persons mentioned are not recorded here. As Alleyn is not always precise in writing people’s names or in noting their relationships to him, the names in his Diary have been checked against those listed in George Warner’s Catalogue of the Manuscripts and Muniments of Alleyn’s College of God’s Gift at DC (1881) and the Second Series of the same catalogue completed by Francis B. Bickley (1903), as well as William Young’s The History of DC, 2 volumes (1889). In addition, in the cases in which Alleyn gives both the surname and forename, the names have been checked against an online database of residents mentioned in Southwark Token Books (http://tokenbooks.folger.edu) prepared by Alan H. Nelson and William Ingram. Throughout, ‘DC’ is an abbreviation for Dulwich College; all references to DC MSS and Muniments specifically refer to the Alleyn Papers. A Abdy Humphrey Abdy, Alleyn’s tenant; he is noted in DC Muniments 523 and 590 and Second Series 100.2 Ade, Mr Adayes, Mr John Adye, a Southwark resident Alber, Mr a joiner Alexander, Mr Prince Charles’ gentleman usher, Sir William Alexander, Earl of Stirling, who addressed a poem to Alleyn in DC MSS 1, Article 137 Allaume, Mr Alldridge, Mr Allen, Captain Allen, Isaac Allen, Mr described by Alleyn as a goldsmith; possibly the goldsmith Francis Allen (c.1583–1658), later a Member of Parliament who participated in the prosecution of King Charles I who was executed in 1649.
