The " historical account ofthe origiue and succession of the familie of Innes " was written no doubt for more obvious considerations, but also for the specific purpose of warranting a grant or confir- mation of Arms by the Lord Lyon— a practice worthy of all commendation, however rarely followed. Long after it had served its first purpose, the work had become known from Pennant having extracted from it the account of the family tragedy of 1580. A formal copy being found in the Innes charter-chest along with the Lord Lyon's patent, they were privately printed in 1820, at the expense of the late Duke of Roxburghe, who wanted, as he afterwards told me himself, " to show those proud Kerrs that he was of as good blood on his father's side as on his great grandmother's." It was printed, according to the rigorous fashion at that time, without note or explanation, and it was only on studying the Diploma at the end, that a reader learnt who the author was. When the Council of the Spalding Club asked me to undertake a new Edition of the book, I made search and was lucky enough to find the author's original MS. at Culloden, and I have to acknowledge the courtesy of the present Laird of Culloden who allowed me the use of it for this Edition. I have said something of the author in the notes which I have added to his history (p. 191) and I have referred in many places to the honest care and industry with which he performed a conscientious task, neither glossing nor wresting facts, nor as- serting anything unproved. It might have been possible to re-write his history more smoothly, and to array the pedigree and its proofs more systema- tically from the contents of the family charter-chest. But a new history would have wanted some of the weight which a writer carries with him who wrote nearly two centuries ago, when he could take up the family traditions that still floated on the stream, which have been all scattered and drowned by his book—for after a story has been written, still more if it be printed, it is odds but the popular mind adopts the book as the best of legends. Moreover I must confess a partiality for old Duncan Forbes, his honest statement of doubts and puzzles, and his quaint philo- sophy, which I should be sorry to displace for anything 1 am able to put in its room. Thus the result has been that I have given Duncan Porbes's text, only somewhat more correct than the first Edition, using the author's original MS. as the best authority. The " Charters and Notes " are chiefly furnished by the Innes charter chest at Floors. Several of the documents quoted by Forbes are now missing, but it is rare to find a Scotch charter chest so rich in early charters. Unfortunately it is not rich in more characteristic documents—the writings of domestic and social intercourse The Innes lairds of the old time either had not the habit of collecting such memorials which marked their kinsmen of Kilravock, or their changes of fortune and residence have swept them down the stream. Where I had it in my power, I have used materials from public Records and from a few private sources, for filling up gaps ; but I am aware of many defects which more extensive enquiry might supply. It is not for want of enquiry and some exertion on my part that the account of cadent families is so unsatisfactory. The principal causes of that defect are indicated in the text (p. 193.) I shall consider it very fortunate if that statement shall stimu- late some of the known branches of the family to save their still extant papers and to set down their descent and propinquity, while still preserved in family tradition and memory. Especially I should wish to become better acquainted with the noble Inneses of Skoisk adel who settled and flourished at Helsingborg, as we are told by Mr. Horace Maryatt in his lively " Year in Sweden." This is the third book of North country family history I have arranged for the Spalding Club, and I intend it shall be my last. If there are materials for more, there are now skilled workmen younger and abler to weave them into shape. Feeling some of the disadvantages of writing about my own people, I am not however conscious of any undue partiality, or tendency to glorify the subjects of this veracious history. Per- haps in guarding against that natural weakness, I may have fallen into the opposite fault and rated too low the qualities of these Northern barons and lairds who were after all not inferior to the average of their countiymen and neighbours. I fear in- deed any one working on family history when it reaches to some antiquity, is sure to find in that fabled golden age, " the age of chivalry," not only a scanty intelligence, a want of high aim or motive, but a low scale of feeling and morals whenever motives and the springs of action are disclosed. Some of my contemporaries strive to shut their own eyes to this, and let the world rejoice in its delusion. I think it is better to keep in mind that the thews and sinews, the energy and courage, of a barbarous tribe are transmissible to their posterity, while the ferocity, treachery, cunning, give way before ages of education —before the civilizing influences that cultivate not only the imagination and intellect, but the heart. My ancestors wanted even some of the qualities we fancy peculiarly characteristic of our race, and they paid the full penalty of disunion. Their descendants, without the same reasons for united action, have learnt a kindlier feeling with a higher motive, and obey the Power that " maketh men to be of one mind in an house." I have to express my thanks and the thanks of the Spalding Club to my Chief, the Duke of Roxburghe, for affording me the free use of his rich charter chest, and contributing the Cuts of seals contained in it which illustrate the work. Sir James M. Innes of Edingicht has very courteously allowed me the use of Robert Innes of Blairtoun's copy of Forbes's MS. mentioned in the text (p. 255.) It came into his hands lately by the intelligence and good feeling of Adam Linton, a drain and dyke contractor in Argyllshire, who had bought it at a sale of the goods of an old woman of the name of Lindsay, at Lochfynehead, (the last of some lawyer's family, who had preserved a few books and papers), and presented it to Sir James as a fit custodier. It may be proper to mention that this book has been long in hand—laid aside from time to time as more pressing business claimed my attention. To this is to be ascribed some changes of plan, and some " overlapping " of dates. On the other band, the delay has had the effect of including some useful documents which have but lately come to my knowledge. C. INNES, Inverleith, May, 1864.

THORNTON Bilkent University, Ankara E-mail: [email protected] This article evaluates ordination lists preserved in bishops’ registers from late medieval England as evidence for the monastic orders, with special reference to religious houses in the diocese of Worcester, from to . By comparing almost , ordination records collected from registers from Worcester and neighbouring dioceses with ‘conven- tual’ lists, it is concluded that over per cent of monks and canons are not named in the extant ordination lists. Over half of these omissions are arguably due to structural gaps in the surviving ordination lists, but other, non-structural factors may also have contributed. ith the dispersal and destruction of the archives of religious houses following their dissolution in the late s, many docu- W ments that would otherwise facilitate the prosopographical study of the monastic orders in late medieval England and Wales have been irre- trievably lost.

  • Ethnicity and the Writing of Medieval Scottish History1
    The Scottish Historical Review, Volume LXXXV, 1: No. 219: April 2006, 1–27 MATTHEW H. HAMMOND Ethnicity and the Writing of Medieval Scottish history1 ABSTRACT Historians have long tended to define medieval Scottish society in terms of interactions between ethnic groups. This approach was developed over the course of the long nineteenth century, a formative period for the study of medieval Scotland. At that time, many scholars based their analysis upon scientific principles, long since debunked, which held that medieval ‘peoples’ could only be understood in terms of ‘full ethnic packages’. This approach was combined with a positivist historical narrative that defined Germanic Anglo-Saxons and Normans as the harbingers of advances in Civilisation. While the prejudices of that era have largely faded away, the modern discipline still relies all too often on a dualistic ethnic framework. This is particularly evident in a structure of periodisation that draws a clear line between the ‘Celtic’ eleventh century and the ‘Norman’ twelfth. Furthermore, dualistic oppositions based on ethnicity continue, particu- larly in discussions of law, kingship, lordship and religion. Geoffrey Barrow’s Robert Bruce and the Community of the Realm of Scotland, first published in 1965 and now available in the fourth edition, is proba- bly the most widely read book ever written by a professional historian on the Middle Ages in Scotland.2 In seeking to introduce the thirteenth century to such a broad audience, Barrow depicted Alexander III’s Scot- land as fundamentally

This was primarily due to its strategic importance as the northern gateway into the Hebrides to the west, and Caithness and Sutherland to the north. The power derived from the earldom’s strategic situation was enhanced by the status of its earls. From 1215 to 1372 the earldom was ruled by an uninterrupted MacTaggart comital dynasty which was able to capitalise on this longevity to establish itself as an indispensable authority in Scotland north of the Forth.

November is traditionally a time to pray especially for all the faithful who have died. The month begins with the great Feast of All Saints, followed immediately by “All Souls”, when the Mass and all the Liturgy of the day is offered as a prayer to God for all who have gone before us “marked with the sign of faith”. The transition from the Liturgy of All Saints to the Liturgy of All Souls is dramatic: festive celebration and white vestments on All Saints, black vestments and the sombre, even mournful character of the Liturgy of All Souls. This is not, I think, meant primarily to express a change of mood, though of course our sentiments will be affected. If the liturgy were seeking to express our feelings, I think we would want to celebrate the two days in reverse: we would first contemplate the darkness of death, then raise our spirits by celebrating our glorious new life in Christ.

  • Clan Dunbar 2014 Tour of Scotland in August 14-26, 2014: Journal of Lyle Dunbar
    Clan Dunbar 2014 Tour of Scotland in August 14-26, 2014: Journal of Lyle Dunbar Introduction The Clan Dunbar 2014 Tour of Scotland from August 14-26, 2014, was organized for Clan Dunbar members with the primary objective to visit sites associated with the Dunbar family history in Scotland. This Clan Dunbar 2014 Tour of Scotland focused on Dunbar family history at sites in southeast Scotland around Dunbar town and Dunbar Castle, and in the northern highlands and Moray. Lyle Dunbar, a Clan Dunbar member from San Diego, CA, participated in both the 2014 tour, as well as a previous Clan Dunbar 2009 Tour of Scotland, which focused on the Dunbar family history in the southern border regions of Scotland, the northern border regions of England, the Isle of Mann, and the areas in southeast Scotland around the town of Dunbar and Dunbar Castle. The research from the 2009 trip was included in Lyle Dunbar’s book entitled House of Dunbar- The Rise and Fall of a Scottish Noble Family, Part I-The Earls of Dunbar, recently published in May, 2014. Part I documented the early Dunbar family history associated with the Earls of Dunbar from the founding of the earldom in 1072, through the forfeiture of the earldom forced by King James I of Scotland in 1435. Lyle Dunbar is in the process of completing a second installment of the book entitled House of Dunbar- The Rise and Fall of a Scottish Noble Family, Part II- After the Fall, which will document the history of the Dunbar family in Scotland after the fall of the earldom of Dunbar in 1435, through the mid-1700s, when many Scots, including his ancestors, left Scotland for America.

  • The Presbyterian Interpretation of Scottish History 1800-1914.Pdf
    Graeme Neil Forsyth THE PRESBYTERIAN INTERPRETATION OF SCOTTISH HISTORY, 1800- 1914 Ph. D thesis University of Stirling 2003 ABSTRACT The nineteenth century saw the revival and widespread propagation in Scotland of a view of Scottish history that put Presbyterianism at the heart of the nation's identity, and told the story of Scotland's history largely in terms of the church's struggle for religious and constitutional liberty. Key to. this development was the Anti-Burgher minister Thomas M'Crie, who, spurred by attacks on Presbyterianism found in eighteenth-century and contemporary historical literature, between the years 1811 and 1819 wrote biographies of John Knox and Andrew Melville and a vindication of the Covenanters. M'Crie generally followed the very hard line found in the Whig- Presbyterian polemical literature that emerged from the struggles of the sixteenth and seventeenth century; he was particularly emphatic in support of the independence of the church from the state within its own sphere. His defence of his subjects embodied a Scottish Whig interpretation of British history, in which British constitutional liberties were prefigured in Scotland and in a considerable part won for the British people by the struggles of Presbyterian Scots during the seventeenth century. M'Crie's work won a huge following among the Scottish reading public, and spawned a revival in Presbyterian historiography which lasted through the century. His influence was considerably enhanced through the affinity felt for his work by the Anti- Intrusionists in the Church of Scotland and their successorsin the Free Church (1843- 1900), who were particularly attracted by his uncompromising defence of the spiritual independence of the church.

It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.
