Transactions the Leicestershire TRANSACTIONS THE LEICESTERSHIRE antr SOCIETY. VOLUME V. LEICESTER: SAMUEL CLARKE 1882. LEICESTER : PRINTED BY SAMUEL CLARKE. - PREFACE. contributor of each Paper is alone responsible for any facts stated, and opinions expressed. Prior to the year 1881 it had been the custom to print in these Transactions all Papers read before this Society relating in any way to Leicestershire, whether such Papers had, or had not, already appeared in the annual volumes of Reports and Papers issued by the Associated Societies. That plan was adopted for two reasons first, that inasmuch as the publication of our Transactions in a separate form was not commenced until some years after the formation of the Society, it appeared desirable that members who had then recently joined, and who, at that time, formed the majority on our list, should possess copies of all local Papers read at an earlier period, and in the second place because the plan then adopted brought all our Leicestershire contributions together in a form most likely to be of use to the future historian of the County. But having now reached the point in our Transactions when Eeports of Meetings held, and of Papers read, are brought down to the present time, it was thought by the Committee of the IV PREFACE. Society, assembled at the Annual Meeting, held in January, 1881, that a change shall be made by your Editorial Secretary with regard to the printing in our separate Transactions of such Papers as shall hereafter be selected for printing in the annual volumes of the Reports and Papers of the Associated Societies. What that change is, is shewn by the following Resolution then passed : " That the Editorial Secretary be requested to observe that when any Paper read before this Society is published in the Volume of the Associated Societies. such Paper shall not be also printed in the Transactions of this Society, but only such a reference to it, or short abstract of it, as he may think desirable, unless the Committee at any time decide otherwise." This Resolution must of course be my guide for the future, and gentlemen contributing Papers will kindly understand that they will be dealt with accordingly.

Having been met by the Vicar of the parish, the members and friends present proceeded to the Parish Church, the details of which—not very interesting—were examined ; but the attention of the visitors was most engaged by the stately tbmb in the Hastings Chapel, on which lie the effigies of Francis, Earl of Huntingdon (who died in 1561) and his Countess—by the figure of a pilgrim in a sepulchral recess in the north wall of the Church —by the bust of a venerable dame at the eastern end of the gallery in the north aisle—and by the curious old finger-pillory still preserved near the western entrance to the fabric.

    News from and about Members Rutland 2013-14 After my Declaration ceremony on 12 April 2013 I realised the relevance of the motto of Rutland, Multum in Parvo, adopted by the County Council in 1950. Rutland has the smallest population of any unitary authority in mainland England, but I have been kept extremely busy.The preparation given at the Burghley seminars and the regional conferences was thorough and extremely useful and I recommend them wholeheartedly to any High Sheriff in nomination. My main aim was to maintain the historic role of this ancient office, but at the same time to make people aware of its presence in modern society. During the year I was responsible for organising the very significant Biennial My High Sheriff’s Awards with the historic backdrop of the horseshoes at Oakham Castle Justice Service and Court Sitting which Left to right: Mount Group Riding for the Disabled; Angela Humphreys, a volunteer almost takes place in Rutland, to keep everywhere I went; Staff Sergeant Instructor Georgina Crosby; Margaret Demaine, Oakham Castle as the longest-running Dementia Friends; Paul Beech, volunteer at Warning Zone; seat of justice for over 850 years.

  • Doing It Differently
    RUTLAND News from and about members Doing it differently THE BBC described Friday 13 March 2020 as ‘The weekend the world changed’; for me it was the day I gave up work to focus on the year ahead. I had been advised that it is not about ‘being High Sheriff’ but ‘doing High Sheriff’; 2020-21 was about doing it differently. We quickly rearranged my Declaration from Oakham Castle to its car park with just the handful of essential people attending and witnessed by a confused dog walker. The following week the Rutland Times headline stated ‘I will be a virtual High Sheriff’. I had no idea what that meant but soon went to places I had never been before – Twitter and Instagram. As lockdown took hold, letter-writing, Stocken Prison Hidden Heroes Day with Lord-Lieutenant, Prison Governor Neil Thomas and High Sheriff’s Cadet Bradie Smith emails and Zoom replaced planned visits as I realised that flexibility is everything. The East Midlands High Sheriff team met regularly over Skype which was invaluable for sharing ideas and maintaining morale! As High Sheriff during the COVID-19 crisis it was vital to be a ‘glass half full person’ and make the most of what you could do. A key part of the role is to work closely with the Lord-Lieutenant; Dr Sarah Furness and I wrote to every town and Presenting a ‘How the Police keep me safe’ Completing the Rutland Round walk with Nick parish council seeking nominees to receive poster competition winner’s certificate to Alfie Clarke on market day in Uppingham greeted letters of thanks for the help they had with PC Joe Lloyd by Deputy Mayor Liz Clarke given others to cope with the challenges of COVID.

  • Parish Priest's Postscript, February 2017. 1. the High Sheriff of Rutland
    Parish Priest’s Postscript, February 2017. 1. The High Sheriff of Rutland, Dr. Sarah Furness has invited all the parishes in the region to a big service in Peterborough Cathedral on 26 February at 3.30pm. As she comes towards the end of her Shrivel Year, Dr. Furness, in the company of The Lord Lieutenant, has also invited a real sheriff to attend: The Rutland Sheriff from Vermont USA complete with his uniform – though horse will be optional! I do hope a number of people from the Benefice will give their support to this service partly because the next High Sheriff of Rutland is actually living in the Benefice: Craig Mitchell from Barrowden. To support this event will also help us to understand what Craig Mitchell’s appointment will signify. There will be a party afterwards with much cake so please email [email protected] to inform the authorities how many people will be travelling in your car. 2. The Welland-Fosse Benefice now has a website! It contains information about our five parishes; news of forthcoming events, services rotas and – if you have the stomach for it – old sermons! It is free to use but it an enormous leap forward in communication terms to enable the whole world to know of our existence and the quality of life which we enjoy. My primary concern is not the whole world but the communication with you and the rest of the benefice which is, of its very nature, complicated and sometimes dismally slow. Please use it! We need your email address so that you can receive immediate news via the website.

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.

I remain deeply in debt to the inspiration and mentorship of David Spring. 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.
