The Emms of Bratton The Emms of Bratton In this account, started in March 2005, there are many gaps which I hope to fill in as time goes by. However, I feel that what is known should now be recorded. It is now 2015 and a few extra details have emerged and a few corrections made but there is never a definitive end to this sort of story! Nancy Cawthorne (née Emm) 1 The author, 2006 2 The Emms of Bratton Main Characters in this Story Benjamin (1) (1695?–1748), married Mary (Ingram) Benjamin (2) (1735–1803), married Grace (Dew) James (1) (1768–1833), son of Ben (2), married Mary (Smith) Elizabeth (Betty) (1771–1845), daughter of Ben (2), married William Calloway Joseph (1) (1778–1844), ‘Uncle Joe’, son of Ben (2), unmarried Elizabeth (1794–?), daughter of James (1), married James Giddings Benjamin (3), (1799–1845), son of James (1), married Jane (Fatt) Joseph (2), (1803–1875), son of James (1), married Rosanna (Giddings) Jane (1809–1883), daughter of James (1), married Robert Reeves James (2) (1822–1873), son of Ben (3), married Elizabeth (Nichols) George (1826–1901), son of Ben (3), married Mary (Prior) Thomas (1829–1866), son of Joseph (2), married Susanna (Hillier) Henry John (1864–1938), son of George, married Lydia (Emm) Lydia (1863–1960), daughter of Thomas, married Henry John Emm George Hillier Emm (1888–1962), son of Henry John & Lydia, married Elsie (Flower) 3 An Emm Family Tree (my direct line only) 1695?–1748 Benjamin (1) = Mary Ingram 1697?–1751 Married 1719 1735–1803 Benjamin (2) = Grace Dew 1735–1803 Married 1764 1768–1833 James (1) = Mary Smith 1770–1845 Married 1793 Benjamin (3) = Jane Fatt Joseph (2) = Rosanna Giddings 1799–1844 1797–1875 1803–1875 1799–1872 Married 1820 Married 1823 George = Mary Prior Thomas = Susanna Hillier 1827–1901 1827–1866 1829–1866 1824–1906 Married 1852 Married 1861 Henry John Lydia = 1864–1938 1863–1960 Married 1888 George Hillier = Elsie Mary Flower 1888–1962 1887–1932 Married 1919 Joan Mary = Leonard Toop Nancy Sybil = Alric Cawthorne Born 1920 Born 1920 Born 1926 Born 1926 Married 1945 Married 1948 4 The Beginnings 1642–1725 Elizabeth Emm, christened 5 February 1642/3 The very earliest mention of the name Emm in Bratton is in fact a variant, ‘Ems’, common enough in the early days, together with the other variants, ‘Em’, ‘Emms’ and ‘Emme’. In 1643 on the fifth day of February, Elizabeth Ems daughter of William Ems was christened in Bratton Church. I don’t know who this William was; he may have been the William Emm, son of another William, baptised in Warminster in 1612, the same one who married Alice Dredge there, on 31 October 1641, but that is only surmise. Later in the year of Elizabeth’s baptism, the battle of Roundway Down was fought within sight of the village. King Charles I had raised his standard at Nottingham on 22 August 1642 and the Civil War was now raging. I wonder which side the people of Bratton and Warminster supported. A William Emme is listed as a ‘householder’ in Warminster in 1665, long after the Civil War was over. He could have been Elizabeth’s father. As far as I know, there is no connection between this William and the one from Sutton Veny who is the next character in our narrative. William Emm 1679–1725 In the 1700s, we move into firmer territory and find a clear connection with the Sutton Veny Emms, whom I have written about elsewhere. We find a William documented as a blacksmith and churchwarden at Bratton. A son of John Emm of Keevil, he is mentioned in John’s will of 1701. When John Emm died, he left this son William one shilling (!). William and his two sisters Mary and Sarah (who also received one shilling) were children of John’s first marriage and were probably comfortably set up by 1701. We know in fact that William was already a blacksmith in Bratton in 1703 when he signed his true brother Joseph’s marriage bond. The family tree on page 7 makes all this more understandable. There is a completely illegible plaque to William in Bratton Church commemorating his death. It is on the wall to your left as you enter. Fortunately this plaque was recorded in Monumental Inscriptions of Wiltshire, 1822 (Wiltshire Record Society), by Sir Thomas Phillips: ‘Also underneath lyeth ye body of William Emme who Depd Oct ye xiv, 1725, Aetat. Suae 43’. If he was really 43 when he died (aetat. suae 43), he would have been born in 1683, but Mrs Fry – the Emm family historian of whom more later – puts his birth in 1679 when a ‘William son of John’ was baptised in Codford (as were some of his brothers and sisters). Indecipherable inscriptions lead to difficulties. (See below for Mrs Fry.) 5 Bratton Church 6 Be that as it may, William Emme, churchwarden at Bratton from 1717 to 1722 with William Whitaker, engaged in an acrimonious correspondence with Mr William Wroughton, vicar of Westbury, in 1721. Bratton Church had been engaged in disputes with Westbury since the dissolution of the monasteries as to whether it was an independent parish or a chapelry of Westbury. Bratton was to remain annexed to Westbury until 1845, when the argument was resolved. I can find no record of a marriage or family for William, but there was a William Emm who married Elizabeth Pilton in Warminster in 1708. He would have been then approximately 28, so it is possibly ‘our’ William. I like to think that William’s smithy was at the end of Stradbrook where one still existed in my childhood. My sister Joan used to take the pony there from Hitchfield Farm. Footnote: Phyllis May Fry, born 1899, was an Emm before she was married. She did a great deal of research into the Emms of Wiltshire. Our common ancestors came from the Chalke Valley. Her papers are now in the Society of Genealogists’ Library in London. Mini Tree (1) JOHN EMM of Keevil, died 1701 1st wife: Elizabeth Bishop 2nd wife: Elizabeth Pool l l sons Joseph & William son Benjamin & 2 daughters & about 7 other children This is Benjamin (1) see below 7 Benjamin Emm (1), born after 1695, died 1748 Mini Tree (2) BENJAMIN (1) 1695?–1748, married 1719, Mary Ingram 1697?–1751 John William Elizabeth Joseph James Benjamin (2) Broadchalke Died 1739 Married Broad- Edington Bratton Smallpox? an Emm chalke No sons This Benjamin is the first of many Benjamins that we find in Bratton. It’s a pity that we don’t have many established details about him. He and his wife Mary were after all the true progenitors of the Bratton Emms. What we do have is quite interesting. He was the youngest son of John of Keevil and quite young when his father died. He and his two sisters Elizabeth and Jane were the children of John’s second wife Elizabeth Pool, and therefore William Emm the blacksmith/churchwarden of Bratton was Benjamin’s half-brother. I have as yet found no record of Benjamin’s birth or baptism but, since John and Elizabeth were not married until 1695, he could not have been more than five or six when his father died in 1701. In his father’s will, Benjamin is to receive £50 when he reaches the age of 21 but in the meantime £10 is to be set aside to bind him as an apprentice to such trade as the executors, John’s ‘ever loving wife’ Elizabeth and his son Joseph, ‘shall think convenient’. Elizabeth and Joseph receive the residue of the estate. We don’t know where Elizabeth and the three children lived after John’s death. Perhaps they joined Joseph, who was quite prosperous, in Upton Lovell, Wiltshire, where he farmed. The next piece of evidence about Benjamin (1) is his marriage licence, dated 1719. He is there described as a bell founder (a trade which the executors presumably found ‘convenient’) of Upton Lovell. His age is given as ‘about 24’, suggesting a birth date of around 1695 which tallies with our calculations. Mary Ingram whom he married came from Bapton, a hamlet near Fisherton Delamere in Wiltshire, and was aged ‘about 22’. The licence is not easy to read. They were married in Upton Lovell in 1719. Why they took out a marriage licence instead of having banns called in the usual way, I don’t know. Her father did not witness the licence attestation. Did he not approve of the match? She may have been already pregnant, since their first child was born in 1719 at Upton Lovell. 8 By 1722 it appears that Benjamin and Mary were living in Warminster, where their third child, William, was baptised. Sadly William died at Bratton aged 17 in 1739. His death is recorded in the diary of Jeffery Whitaker, a prominent farmer and schoolteacher of Bratton, and is likely to have resulted from smallpox which was rife in the village at that time. By 1727 Benjamin and Mary were in Bratton. Their next five children are recorded in the registers of Bratton Church. Benjamin worked as a blacksmith, not a bell founder, perhaps taking over from his half-brother William. He may also have done some farming. We next hear of him in 1744, when he falls foul of the parish authorities in Bratton. He was ‘presented’ by the churchwardens for non-payment of the Clerk’s dues. I wonder what his churchwarden half-brother would have thought of that! Why didn’t he pay? Later members of the family were to take up the Baptist faith.

DEPARTMENT CHURCH ••.;••• P-. .go CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS Omnes, si ad originem primam revocantur, a dis sunt. SENECA, Epist. xliv. One hundred copies of this work have been printed. PREFACE '•"^AN these bones live ? . and the breath came into them, and they ^-^ lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.' The question, that was asked in Ezekiel's vision, seems to have been answered satisfactorily ; but it is no easy matter to breathe life into the dry bones of more than a thousand pedigrees : for not many of us are interested in the genealogies of others ; though indeed to those few such an interest is a living thing. Several of the following pedigrees are to be found among the most ancient of authenticated genealogical records : almost all of them have been derived from accepted and standard works ; and the most modern authorities have been consulted ; while many pedigrees, that seemed to be doubtful, have been omitted. Their special interest is to be found in the fact that (with the exception of some of those whose names are recorded in the Wallop pedigree, including Sir John Wallop, K.G., who ' walloped' the French in 1515) every person, whose lineage is shown, is a direct (not a collateral) ancestor of a family, whose continuous descent can be traced since the thirteenth century, and whose name is identical with that part of England in which its members have held land for more than seven hundred and fifty years.

Salisbury Plain and West Wiltshire Downs Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment 1 2 3 White Paper , Biodiversity 2020 and the European Landscape Convention , we are North revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas East that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision- Yorkshire making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

Waylen he object of this paper is to exhibit some of the various methods for raising money put in practice in Wiltshire during the Civil War by such of the resident gentry as were favourable to the Parliament's cause.1 The first Tstanding Committee for the county was organised at the close of the year 1642 in pursuance of a Parliamentary Ordinance applicable to the whole of England, and levying a weekly, assessment of so much in the pound; though this by no means represents the various forms of appeal made from time to time as the struggle went on. On the other hand, the King also had his Committee. At least he occasionally nominated local groups of his friends for a variety of objects in his own behalf; but their action was spasmodic and their existence very brief. The poor people, meanwhile, whenever this double action was put in force, found themselves ground between two millstones. If the Royalist visitations were sweeping and desolating, those of the Committees were systematic and perennial. The first Wilts Committee acting for the Parliament comprised only the fifteen following names :—Sir Edward Hungerford, of Farley; Sir Edward Baynton, of Bromham; Sir Neville Poole, of Oaksey; Sir John Evelyn, of West Dean; Edward Baynton, of Bromham; Edward Tooker, of Maddington; Edward Goddard, of Marlborough; Thomas Moore, of Heytesbury; Denzil Hollis, of Haughton; Alexander Thistlethwayte, jun., of Winterslowe; Edward Poole [of Wootton Bassett?]; John Ashe, of Heytesbury; Robert Jennour, of Meysey; William Wheeler, of Westbury; and John White [of Grittleton ?].
