MISCELLANEOUS MONASTIC CHARTERS Edited by D. E. EASSON, Ph.D. INTRODUCTION Of the following charters those belonging to the abbey of Balmerino were found among the Moray charters at Darnaway Castle, while the Scone charter is taken from a transumpt discovered at Darnaway in 1942.1 The Inch- colm charter is abstracted from the original among the Morton charters now lodged in H.M. General Register House. It was intended to include Coupar Angus items from the charters in the possession of the Rt. Hon. the Earl of Wharncliffe, but these appear, from recent in- vestigation, to have been totally destroyed during the war. My thanks are due to the Rt. Hon. the Earl of Moray as well as to Dr. Gordon Donaldson and Mr. James Young for valued assistance. 1 Coupar Angus Charters (Scot. Hist. Soc.), i. p. 8 n. CHARTERS OF BALMERINO ABBEY I 1230.

I Indenture recording an agreement, made in a council at Dundee in 1230, between the abbot and convent of Arbroath and the abbot and convent of Balmerino, whereby Arbroath leases to Balmerino in perpetuity the church of Feuthmureve for an annual payment of forty silver marks. Arbroath will be responsible to the bishop of St. Andrews for the episcopal dues of that church; and the chaplain serving it will have a bovate of land as perambulated by Sir Jocelin de Balendard and Sir Nicholas de Inverpeffer. This charter does not appear in Liber S. Marie de Balmorinach. It represents a hitherto unrecorded stage in the negotiations whereby the church of Fethmureve passed from the hands of Arbroath into those of Balmerino. See Campbell, Balmerino, pp. 123-4 ; and cf. Balmorinach, 9. The acquisition of this church by Balmerino was in accord- ance with the policy commonly pursued by a Cistercian com- munity, viz. the appropriation of a church situated in its lands (cf. Coupar Angus, i. p. xxxix). The land of Fethmure is men- tioned in a charter of Alexander n., 3 February, 1230/1, as one of the king’s grants to that abbey at its foundation (in 1229) (Balmorinach, 1). In concilio Apud Dunde: This council does not seem to be mentioned elsewhere. If it was a provincial council, it must have been one of the first to be held following the bull of Honorius m. (1225) which authorised the holding of such councils by the church in Scotland. Dimiserunt ad firmam . ecclesiam de feuthmureue . pro Quadraginta Marcis argenti : This was the church of Barry, in MISCELLANEOUS MONASTIC CHARTERS 7 Angus, bestowed upon Arbroath by William the Lion (Aber- brothoc, i. 21). The monks of Balmerino were relieved from this payment through the grant to Arbroath by Alexander n. of an equivalent amount from lands in Tarves (ibid., i. 102). Respondebunt . de omnibus Episcopalibus: In the final arrangement between the two houses, this provision remained (Balmorinach, 9). On 7 April, 1464, it was reiterated with the additional proviso that Arbroath would repair the choir of the church ‘ on this occasion only,’ while Balmerino, for an annual payment of twenty silver shillings, would uphold the choir thereafter (Aberbrothoc, ii. 152). Cappellanus qui eidem ecclesie deseruiet: The parish was after- wards served by a vicar-pensioner (the later medieval equi- valent of a parochial chaplain), who was presented by Arbroath (ibid., ii. 147, 323, 783). Jocelino de Balendard: The perambulation conducted by him is also mentioned, Aberbrothoc, i. 258. He witnesses the resignation of the church of Barry by Arbroath (Balmorinach, 9) and an undated charter of Henry Revel and Margaret, his spouse (RPSA., p. 271). See Carnegies, i. pp. xxiii-xxiv, for an account of this family as the ancestors of the Camegies. Nicholao de yneuirpefre: Witnesses charters of John de Scotia, earl of Chester and Huntingdon (RPSA., p. 241) as well as the charter of resignation of the church of Barry (Balmorinach, 9). According to Carnegies, i. p. xxiv, Nicholas’ land—Inverpeffer in Angus—-was in the parish of Arbirlot, adjoining the land of Jocelin de Balendard. Cf. Campbell, Balmerino, pp. 56-7. Domino W. de Sancto andrea (episcopo): William de Malvoisine, bishop of St. Andrews, 1202-38 (Dowden, Bishops, pp. 12, 13). Domino W. de Glasgu (episcopo): Walter, bishop of Glasgow, 1208-32 (ibid., p. 301). Domino G. de aberden (episcopo): Gilbert de Strivelyn, bishop of Aberdeen, 1228-39 (ibid., p. 103). Domino G. de Breyhin (episcopo): Gregory, bishop of Brechin, 1218-42 (?) (ibid., pp. 174-5). Domino G. de Chatenis (episcopo): Gilbert de Moravia (‘ St. Gilbert ’), bishop of Caithness, 1224-45 (?) (ibid., p. 235). Domino 0. de starthhern (episcopo): This is the only dated reference to Osbert, bishop of Dunblane. He held the see for some period between 1227 and 1231 (ibid., p. 196). Domino J. de Lundoris (abbate): John, second abbot of Lindores. See Lindores, p. 303. 8 MISCELLANEOUS MONASTIC CHARTERS Domino W. de Quilinros (abbate): William de Ramesei, abbot of Culross. His death in 1232 is recorded (Chron. Mailros, p. 142). See Inchcolm, p. 128.

  • The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, C.1164-C.1560
    1 The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560 Victoria Anne Hodgson University of Stirling Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2016 2 3 Abstract This thesis is an examination of the Cistercian abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560, and its place within Scottish society. The subject of medieval monasticism in Scotland has received limited scholarly attention and Coupar itself has been almost completely overlooked, despite the fact that the abbey possesses one of the best sets of surviving sources of any Scottish religious house. Moreover, in recent years, long-held assumptions about the Cistercian Order have been challenged and the validity of Order-wide generalisations disputed. Historians have therefore highlighted the importance of dedicated studies of individual houses and the need to incorporate the experience of abbeys on the European ‘periphery’ into the overall narrative. This thesis considers the history of Coupar in terms of three broadly thematic areas. The first chapter focuses on the nature of the abbey’s landholding and prosecution of resources, as well as the monks’ burghal presence and involvement in trade. The second investigates the ways in which the house interacted with wider society outside of its role as landowner, particularly within the context of lay piety, patronage and its intercessory function. The final chapter is concerned with a more strictly ecclesiastical setting and is divided into two parts. The first considers the abbey within the configuration of the Scottish secular church with regards to parishes, churches and chapels. The second investigates the strength of Cistercian networks, both domestic and international.

  • History of the Mackenzies Alexander Mackenzie
    History Of The Mackenzies Alexander Mackenzie THE HISTORY OF THE MACKENZIES. ORIGIN. THE CLAN MACKENZIE at one time formed one of the most powerful families in the Highlands. It is still one of the most numerous and influential, and justly claims a very ancient descent. But there has always been a difference of opinion regarding its original progenitor. It has long been maintained and generally accepted that the Mackenzies are descended from an Irishman named Colin or Cailean Fitzgerald, who is alleged but not proved to have been descended from a certain Otho, who accompanied William the Conqueror to England, fought with that warrior at the battle of Hastings, and was by him created Baron and Castellan of Windsor for his services on that occasion. THE REPUTED FITZGERALD DESCENT. According to the supporters of the Fitzgerald-Irish origin of the clan, Otho had a son Fitz-Otho, who is on record as his father's successor as Castellan of Windsor in 1078. Fitz-Otho is said to have had three sons. Gerald, the eldest, under the name of Fitz- Walter, is said to have married, in 1112, Nesta, daughter of a Prince of South Wales, by whom he also had three sons. Fitz-Walter's eldest son, Maurice, succeeded his father, and accompanied Richard Strongbow to Ireland in 1170. He was afterwards created Baron of Wicklow and Naas Offelim of the territory of the Macleans for distinguished services rendered in the subjugation of that country, by Henry II., who on his return to England in 1172 left Maurice in the joint Government.

  • An Old Family; Or, the Setons of Scotland and America
    [U AN OLD FAMILY OR The Setons of Scotland and America BY MONSIGNOR SETON (MEMBER OF THE NEW YORK HISTORICAL SOCIETY) NEW YORK BRENTANOS 1899 Copyright, 1899, by ROBERT SETON, D. D. TO A DEAR AND HONORED KINSMAN Sir BRUCE-MAXWELL SETON of Abercorn, Baronet THIS RECORD OF SCOTTISH ANCESTORS AND AMERICAN COUSINS IS AFFECTIONATELY INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR Preface. The glories of our blood and state Are shadows, not substantial things. —Shirley. Gibbon says in his Autobiography: "A lively desire of knowing and recording our ancestors so generally prevails that it must depend on the influence of some common principle in the minds of men"; and I am strongly persuaded that a long line of distinguished and patriotic forefathers usually engenders a poiseful self-respect which is neither pride nor arrogance, nor a bit of medievalism, nor a superstition of dead ages. It is founded on the words of Scripture : Take care of a good name ; for this shall continue with thee more than a thousand treasures precious and great (Ecclesiasticus xli. 15). There is no civilized people, whether living under republi- can or monarchical institutions, but has some kind of aristoc- racy. It may take the form of birth, ot intellect, or of wealth; but it is there. Of these manifestations of inequality among men, the noblest is that of Mind, the most romantic that of Blood, the meanest that of Money. Therefore, while a man may have a decent regard for his lineage, he should avoid what- ever implies a contempt for others not so well born.

  • The Works Brass Band – a Historical Directory of the Industrial and Corporate Patronage and Sponsorship of Brass Bands
    The works brass band – a historical directory of the industrial and corporate patronage and sponsorship of brass bands Gavin Holman, January 2020 Preston Corporation Tramways Band, c. 1910 From the earliest days of brass bands in the British Isles, they have been supported at various times and to differing extents by businesses and their owners. In some cases this support has been purely philanthropic, but there was usually a quid pro quo involved where the sponsor received benefits – e.g. advertising, income from band engagements, entertainment for business events, a “worthwhile” pastime for their employees, corporate public relations and brand awareness - who would have heard of John Foster’s Mills outside of the Bradford area if it wasn’t for the Black Dyke Band? One major sponsor and supporter of brass bands, particularly in the second half of the 19th century, was the British Army, through the Volunteer movement, with upwards of 500 bands being associated with the Volunteers at some time – a more accurate estimate of these numbers awaits some further analysis. However, I exclude these bands from this paper, to concentrate on the commercial bodies that supported brass bands. I am also excluding social, civic, religious, educational and political organisations’ sponsorship or support. In some cases it is difficult to determine whether a band, composed of workers from a particular company or industry was supported by the business or not. The “workmen’s band” was often a separate entity, supported by a local trade union or other organisation. For the purposes of this review I will be including them unless there is specific reference to a trade union or other social organisation.

  • Pilgrims Society Members
    My dear friends around the world, Have I got history for you! Below, you will see names of members of a nefarious organization called The Pilgrims Society sometimes referred to as just The Pilgrims. So if you can't or don't have time to read the very long article (it's more like an eBook), you can at least see who our enemies are. The article is at http://silverstealers.net/tss.html The Pilgrims Society was established in 1902 in the UK, and 6 months later in 1903 in the USA and continues today. I published an article in 2009 on this at http:// www.truedemocracy.net/hj31/37.html I encourage you to read the article, though, because you will know without a doubt that the only thing that will save you is gold and silver that you can hold in your hands. These elite's dates of birth and death (as applicable) are just to the left of their name in this. If there is no second date listed, then this person is alive. PLEASE FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW. WE CANNOT ALLOW THESE "PEOPLE" TO DO TO US AGAIN WHAT THEY DID TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IN THE 1930s. I also encourage you to keep these names as a reference tool that you can refer to as needed as what I have here is the most current listing of their dates of death, one of whom just died on December 27, 2012. In a word, these "people" are scum in my humble opinion! One of them said that silver is for war.
