PREFACE.
IN the seventh and eighth volumes of Collectanea Topographica et
Genealogica, published by Messrs. Nichols and Son in 1841 and 1843,
were printed certain extracts from the Registers of Westminster Abbey,
from a MS. in the College of Arms, with annotations by the late Sir
Charles G. Young, Garter. These extracts will be found on pages 162-174,
243-248, and 355-377 of vol. vii., and 1-21 of vol. viii., of that work.
They proved a great boon to historians, biographers and genealogists, and
have ever since been accepted as standard authority. A conviction that
the series was imperfect, and the entries often erroneous, induced the
present Editor to collate his copy with the original, and the result was so
startling that it was felt that the knowledge obtained ought not to be
confined to himself. In a word, it was found that the errors, both of
omission and commission, were so numerous and so serious as to render the
Collectanea version untrustworthy and practically worthless.
In some
instances, also, the identifications by the annotator of persons named in
the text were found to be incorrect. It would be impossible to point out
all the discrepancies revealed by a careful examination of the original
Registers, and they can be ascertained only by a comparison of the two
versions: some of the more flagrant errors, however, are referred to in the
notes in the present volume. The late Mr. John Gough Nichols was so
profoundly sensible of the injury unwittingly done to the literary world
by the Collectanea version that he at once proposed to print the corrected
one at his own expense, but this arrangement came to an end by reason
of his untimely death. It was then intended to reprint only the oldest.
volumes of the Registers, embracing the period covered by the Collectanea
extracts, ending with the year 1705; but on consulting with the present
b

PREFACE.
Dean of Westminster, he naively asked the question, Why stop there?
The final result was that, at the instance of Dean Stanley, and with the
cordial approbation of the Chapter, the entire Registers were allowed to
be given to the world. It is only just to say that for the publicity of
these interesting and valuable records, so illustrative of the personal
history of the venerable Minster, the world is indebted to the liberal
spirit of its present chief dignitary. From the inception of the design to
the last moment of its completion, he has taken the liveliest interest in
the work, and the Editor desires to record permanently here his gratitude
for the numerous courtesies, generous sympathy, and cordial encourage-
ment, which he has received from him during the many years of his
interesting labour.
Anything like biographical sketches of the various persons named in
the Abbey Registers would have swelled the work into half a dozen volumes,
and it was deemed best that the Editor should restrict his labours to their
identification, giving, perhaps, any salient facts concerning them, and
references by which their own history or that of their families could be
pursued. The present volume is therefore designed for reference, rather
than for popular perusal. Brief as many of the annotations are, however,
they have often cost much time and labour, and there is many a line and
half line which is the concentrated result of weeks of patient research.
Those only who have been engaged in a similar undertaking can have the
slightest conception of the amount of serious work embodied in the
following pages. Still, while claiming that he has done his work carefully
and conscientiously, the Editor is not vain or foolish enough to believe
or hope that no errors will be detected. He does believe, however, that
they will be very few, accidental, and unimportant, and that every state-
ment of facts and dates may be absolutely relied upon.
Whenever the authorities for the annotations naturally suggest them-
selves, and are common and open to all, they are not mentioned; but
any unusual reference is carefully given. Whenever monumental inscrip-
tions are quoted, it may be taken for granted that the Editor has personally
examined them, if in existence; but, if they have disappeared, then resort
has been had to the numerous books in which they have been printed
numerous and so common that it would have been idle to reproduce the
inscriptions in the notes. Whenever Wills are referred to, it may be
understood that they are to be found at the Principal Registry of Probate,
now at Somerset House, unless otherwise stated. The contractions "Mar.

Lic. Fac.," "Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen.," "Mar. Lic. Bp. Lond.," and "Mar. Lic.

for which are to be found at the Faculty Office, or that of the Vicar-
General of the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Registry of the Bishop of
London, or in the Act Books of the Dean and Chapter of Westminster,
now at Somerset House. The full sense of any other contractions, such
as "dau." for daughter, and " Admon." for Letters of Administration, will
readily be perceived.
""
From the manner in which the earliest volume of the Abbey Registers
was compiled (see the heading, p. 1), and from the too evident carelessness
of some of the later officials, it is quite certain that many other persons
have been buried in the Abbey and its Cloisters of whose interment no
record now exists. The same remark applies to marriages and baptisms
to some extent. Instances of the latter occur where the ceremony was
undoubtedly performed in the Abbey, but the record of them appears only
in the parish registers of St. Margaret, Westminster. And, again,
according to the Abbey Registers, it would appear that no baptisms took
place, on one occasion, for a period of about thirteen years, which is, to
say the least, highly improbable. So far as Mr. Tynchare was concerned,
it is but fair to presume that the sentiment which led him in the first
instance to secure and perpetuate what was left of the "imperfect books'
also induced him to do his work as thoroughly as possible, but it is certain
that the records antecedent to the Restoration are sadly deficient, and the
names and dates sometimes inaccurate. These discrepancies have been
reconciled by the Editor whenever positive evidence could be obtained.
Mr. Tynchare, however, died in 1673, and by whom, or under what system,
the Registers were afterwards kept, it is impossible to determine. That
at a much later period some reprehensible looseness existed is abundantly
proved by the action of the Chapter. The "Chanter was never the
proper official on whom this duty should devolve, but rather the Registrar,
or Chapter Clerk. When the late Mr. George-Giles Vincent was appointed
to the latter office, in 1803, he appears to have so regarded the matter,
as still does his successor, Mr. Bedford. The action of the Chapter just
referred to will be found in the following entry in its records, under the
date of 12 June 1804:
"Ordered, that Mr. Horsfall make up the Register Book of Burials to
the time of Mr. Vincent's appointment to the office of Chapter Clerk, and,
X
PREFACE.
that Mr. Horsfall be allowed one month from this day to make up the
said book, and, if it be not made up at that day, Mr. Vincent be authorized
to employ some person to make it up, upon such evidence as is still in
existence."
The eight words italicized, and especially the last three, suggest the
unpleasant suspicion that there had been other "evidence" not then in
existence, and the whole entry shews at least that the Registers had
not been properly kept. From the uniformity of the writing and the
colour of the ink, it seems also certain that the neglect covered a very
long period.
Whatever the losses from this neglect, it is impossible now to retrieve
them from the Abbey records themselves, which have been carefully ex-
amined with that object. The probability is that the difficulty grew out
of the number of persons authorized to officiate at the various ceremonials,
who, instead of making, or seeing made, the entries themselves, trusted to
some person whose duty it was supposed to be. In other words, the duty
was theoretically everybody's, but was suffered to become practically nobody's.
For the omissions in Mr. Tynchare's portion of the Registers there is,
of course, a sufficient excuse. One fact, however, should be noticed. It
has always been customary to attribute the mutilation of parish registers,
as well as the spoliation of monuments and sepulchral brasses, to the
rough soldiers or the stern officials of the Commonwealth. Even if this
were true generally, there is good reason to believe that part, at
least, of the damage done to the Abbey Registers was the work of some
over zealous loyalist who had the custody of them, or access to them,
immediately after the Restoration. Else, why do we fail to find in them,
for instance, the name of a single member of the Protector's family? Yet
Cromwell himself was buried in the Abbey, as were his mother, his sister,
his daughter, his son-in-law, and his grandchild. Why do we also fail to
find the names of Bradshaw, and Pym, and Strode, and Bond, and May,
all of which appear in the royal warrant for disinterment in 1661 (see
pp. 521-3), and of whose places of burial there must have been some
record, as their coffins were readily found? It would be unfair to assume
that Mr. Tynchare himself purposely omitted these names, as he preserved
no less than thirteen others which appear in the same warrant, the memory
of which must have been sufficiently, if not equally, offensive to the then
ruling powers.
Some of the entries which were evidently missing when Mr. Tynchare
PREFACE.
xi
performed his work would now be deeply interesting; such, for instance,
as those of the burials of Old Parr and Ben Jonson. Others would have
been of great service in throwing light upon subsequent ones, wherein it
is stated that persons were buried with or near their parents, their wives
or husbands, their brothers or sisters, or their children. In several instances
the absence of these earlier entries has entirely prevented the identification
of persons interred at later periods.
Whether the earlier Registers had disappeared before Mr. Tynchare's
time it is impossible to say, but it is probable that he preserved all the
fragments he could find. At all events, they are now hopelessly lost, as
all the Abbey muniments have recently undergone a careful examination,
in the course of which the volume so frequently mentioned as the "Unofficial
Register" was discovered. It is hardly necessary to say that the records.
of the sixteenth century, could they be recovered, would be priceless.
A considerable list of burials that do not appear in the Registers.
might be compiled from the monumental inscriptions; but these have
been repeatedly printed, and their reproduction would be foreign to the
purpose of this volume, which professes to deal only with the Registers
as they now exist. The only exceptions made are a considerable number
of entries which appear in a volume kept by one of the minor canons,
designated in the notes as the "Unofficial Register," and a few from a
series of small books kept from an early period by the officials in immediate
charge of the interments, in which they usually transcribed the inscriptions
from the coffin-plates, and noted the exact position of the graves, and
which are referred to in the notes as 'Funeral Books." All of these
semi-official entries are printed in italics, in order to distinguish them
from those in the official Registers, but there is not the slightest doubt
that they are of equal authority. An entirely exceptional case is that
of Lady Noel, buried in 1671, the evidence, as stated in the note, being
deemed sufficient to justify its admission. A few entries have also been
incorporated from the registers of St. Margaret, Westminster. The rest
of the text is simply a transcript of the official Registers, omitting only
the constant succession of unnecessary verbiage, such as the phrases
were married," was buried," etc., rendered still more unnecessary by
the general heading at the top of each page. Great convenience will be
afforded, so far as the burials are concerned, by the reduction of the two
series of Abbey and Cloister interments into one unbroken chronological
arrangement.

PREFACE.
It will be noticed that, in accordance with the system of annotation
adopted, as much care has been taken with the names of persons in
humble positions as with those of their superiors. This seemed necessary
in order that their very names, and their appearance in the Abbey Registers,
should not hereafter mislead inquirers as to their social rank.
Having said so much concerning the defects of the Registers, it must
not be forgotten that there is a reverse to the picture. It is equally true
that many persons have the historical reputation of interment in the
Abbey for whom its gates were never opened. An examination of almost
any
of the printed family histories will reveal references to ancestors
said to be there buried, in support of which claims there is not a shadow
of evidence, but, in many instances, ample proof to the contrary. So,
through carelessness, errors have crept into the MSS. of even eminent
historians and genealogists, which have been perpetuated until they have
become a part of history, For instance, Peter Le Neve, in his Diary,
recorded the burial of the Morocco Ambassador in the Abbey on the
31st of August 1715, and even noted the name and address of the un-
dertaker from whose shop the body was carried. He was correct as to
the date, but the interment actually took place in the neighbouring church
of St. Margaret. There are few who would not accept Le Neve's authority,
and yet this is but one of a number of similar errors detected by the
Editor during a careful examination of his MSS. Even the monumental
inscriptions themselves could not always be trusted. In many instances
they contain nothing to indicate that the persons to whose memory they
are inscribed are not actually there interred, and it would be difficult to
determine whether the stereotyped "Hic jacet" and "In memory of"
were not regarded as synonymous. It may be suspected that the existence
in the Abbey of a merely honorary memorial has more than once led
persons in modern times to assume the actual burial there of their ancestors.
It may be as well to add that the Editor has a large collection from
which he may eventually decide to print a list of such persons as were
probably buried in the Abbey, but whose names do not appear in the
Registers, with the evidences, and also that, if his life is spared a few
years longer, he intends to embody in a Supplement such important
information as he may acquire respecting the persons named in the
present volume, and especially concerning the few still unidentified.
• In bringing to a close the labours of love which have occupied him
so many years, the Editor has to return his hearty thanks to all those

¹ He son of Hugh Billey, Esq., Master Cook to K. Chas. I.. who was buried at St. Margaret's,
Westminster, 13 Mch. 1648-9. She his second wife. He was married, first, at St. Martin in the
Fields, 1 Feb. 1629-30, to Camilla dau. of John Lake, of Greenwich, Yeoman of the Pastry, and
she was buried at Greenwich 18 Feb. 1653-4. He died before 24 Oct. 1668, as on that day his
widow Mary had license from the Vicar-General to marry William Hayes of Deptford, Kent,
Yeoman. On 8 Mch. 1670-1, the Dean and Chapter of Westminster granted letters of Adminis-
tration to Mary Hayes alias Billey, relict of Walter Billey, late of St. Margaret's, Westminster.
2 He fourth son of Edward Bowman of Hailey, in the parish of Witney, co. Oxford, gent.,
by Jane dau. of Mr. Headson, of Warwickshire. He was of Ramsden, co. Oxford, and an
Alderman of the city of Oxford. His will, dated 10 Dec. 1665. was proved 26 Feb. 1666-7. She
his second wife. Her will, as of Kidlington, co. Oxford, widow, dated 24 Apl. 1694, was proved
6 July 1697, by the Rev. Thomas Pargiter, D.D., whose wife Katherine was her niece. Mr. Bow-
man's first wife was Elizabeth, dau. of William Potter, Alderman of Oxford, by whom he had
three sons and three daus. (Sec Visitation of Oxfordshire, 1669.)
3 The register of St. Bride's, London, records that a certificate for this marriage was given
10 July, after three publications. In that record he is called "John Hastings, Esq.," and she
"Mrs. Elizabeth Parris." In the record of publication in the register of St. Margaret's, West-
minster, he is described as "John Hastings, of St. Bride's, London, Esq.," and she as Mrs.
Elizabeth Paris, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, widow." It seems probable, therefore, that
her first husband's name was Paris, and not Parry. See her third marriage 20 Dec. 1687. Four
children by this marriage, viz., Thomas, William, John, and Sarah Hastings, were living 8 June
1693, when they were mentioned in the will of her third husband, who administered to her
estate 1 Aug. 1692, she being described as "Elizabeth Feltham alias Hastings," of St. Botolph,
Aldersgate. She appears to have had no issue by her third husband, and was evidently much
his senior.

was buried 14 Sep. 1674, and he also 13 Nov. 1690. He married another wife, Ann, and had by
her five other children, all baptized at St. Margaret's, among whom was General John Wynyard,
buried in the Abbey 27 Feb. 1752. She survived him and administered to his estate 15 Dec. 1690.
He had probably already been married, as there is a monumental inscription at Boxwell, co.
Gloucester, for Alice, dau. of Matthew Huntley, of Boxwell, Esq., and wife of John Wynyard,
of Westminster, Esq., who died 2 Sep. 1650, æt. 23,
2 She probably sister to Margaret in the preceding entry. A Thomas Hutton was admitted
to Gray's Inn 27 Oct. 1656, as son and heir of Richard Hutton, late of Poppleton, co. York, Esq.
deceased, who was living at the Visitation of 1665 with a wife Anne and three children, the
eldest of whom was then only three years of age. This may have been a first marriage.
3 Recorded also in the register of St. Margaret's, Westminster, same date, as Nicholas Love,
Gent., of that parish, and Elizabeth Bugges, of Lambeth, spinster.

Deputy to the King's Remembrancer in the Exchequer, Steward of the borough of Hertford, a
J.P. for the County, and M.P. for the borough in 1666; and she eldest dau. and coheir of Hugh
North, of Marden, in the parish of Tewin, in that county. Their second son, Arthur, born 1 Mch.
1661-2, died 12 Jan. 1665-6, and was buried at St. Andrew's, Hertford.
6 He son and heir of Richard Pagitt, of Westminster, Gent., by Susan, eldest dau, of the
Rev. William Pelsant, B.D., of Market Bosworth, co. Leicester, Prebendary of Lincoln, and was
baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 12 Jan. 1620-1. She eldest dau. of Lyming Dickenson,
of St. Martin in the Fields, Esq., by his second wife Frances (dau. of John Morris, of London,
Gent., and widow of Edward Gratwicke, of Itford, in Bedingham, co. Sussex, son of Sir William
Gratwicke, Kt.) She was buried in the New Chapel, Westminster, 10 May 1670. He remarried,
about Nov. 1687, Elizabeth Sands, widow. His will, dated 9 Jan. previous, was proved 3 July
1696, and he was also buried in the New Chapel 16 June of that year. Richard Pagitt, LL.D.
of Cambridge in 1687, and a well known Advocate, was a son of this marriage, and was buried
with his parents 14 Nov. 1726.
7 Patent to John Stockdale as Bellringer, 11 Dec. 1660. See the baptism of a son 9 May
1665, and the burial of a dau. 28 Apl. 1664, and probably of another son 13 Dec. 1670.

of Sir Richard Gargrave of Kingsley and Nostell, co. York, Kt. She died the 15th and was
buried at Ifield, co. Sussex, 25 Sep. 1667, in her thirty-second year, and her husband administered
to her estate 22 Feb. 1668-9. He remarried, at Kensington, 6 June 1670, Anne eldest dau. and
coheir of Sir Francis Pile, of Compton Beauchamp, Bart., who was also buried at Ifield 4 May,
1682. He is said to have died 1 Mch. 1689-90, aged 63, and to have been buried at Aldenham,
Herts, but his burial is recorded at Ifield 11 July 1692. His will, dated 3 Sep. 1680, was not
proved until 4 Mch. 1694-5. By his first wife he had two daus. who died young. His son
Denzell, by his second wife, succeeded as third Baron, but died unmarried, 1694, and the titles
became extinct. (See his father's third marriage 14 Sep. 1666.)
1 He only son of Sir William Dugdale, Garter King of Arms, by Margery dau. of John
Huntbach of Sewall, co. Stafford. He became Windsor Herald in 1676, and Norroy King of
Arms in 1686, and was then knighted. She his first wife, second dau. and coheir of Alexander
Baker, of New Windsor, co. Berks, Gent., by Elizabeth dau. of Thomas Farrar of Harold, co.
Beds. She died 9 Jan. 1670-1, and was buried at Windsor, with an infant son and daughter.
See her grandfather's burial 2 Oct. 1635. Sir William remarried, 4 May 1672, Elizabeth dau.

his will the preceding February, in which she is called his third daughter. A Robert Powell,
son of a Minister, matriculated at Oxford, from Merton College, 1 Apl. 1656, and another, as
servitor, from St. John's, 15 June 1657.
3 Mar. Lic. Vic. Geu. 28 July 1663, for Edward Freshwater of Lincoln's Inn, Esq., bachelor,

of her father John Bett, Gent. Their eldest child John-Charles was born the 12th and baptized
21 Dec. 1664, at St. Martin in the Fields. A Richard Smith was clerk of the Cheque to the
Yeomen of the Guard in 1673.
5 Mar. Lic. Fac. 19 Jan. 1663-4, for Edward Littleton alias Tinker (he so signed the allega-
tion) of St. Botolph Aldersgate, Clothworker, bachelor, aged 25, and Elizabeth Bush of the same
parish, widow, aged about 29. See his father's burial 12 May 1673, in whose will he is called
fourth son. He was living 31 Aug. 1696, as appears by the Probate of his brother John's will.
6 Francis Prujean, a native of Essex, matriculated at Cambridge, from Caius College. Apl.

President five successive years, 1650-4; knighted 1 Apl. 1661. His will dated 23 Apl. 1665, as
of St. Martin's Ludgate, was proved 6 July 1666. He died in the Old Bailey 24 June, and was
buried 17 July 1666 at Hornchurch, co. Essex, with his first wife Margaret (buried there 24 Jan.
1660-1) and his only son Thomas (buried 15 Oct. 1662). In the Hornchurch register he is styled
"First Physician to the King." In the license for this marriage his age is stated to be 60 years.
Margaret, his second wife, was dau. of Edward first Baron Gorges of Dundalk, and relict of
Sir Thomas Fleming. In the Mar. Lic. Fac. she is called of St. Martin in the Fields, aged 40
and upwards, and, having been dangerously ill, the marriage was to take place in Westminster
Abbey, "or in some convenient room in the house of Thomas Gorges D.D., one of the Pre-
"bendaries, situate in the cloisters of said church." She survived her husband, and married,

1 Correctly Donkley. See his burial 8 Feb. 1688-9. She dau. of John Fox, Esq. (see his
burial 23 Nov. 1691) and nicce of the celebrated Sir Stephen Fox. She long survived her
husband, her son William administering to her estate 12 Jan. 1727-8. The burials of twelve of
their children, and the marriage of one daughter, occur in these Registers.
2 See his burial 23 Mch. 1668-9. She his second wife, third dau. and coheir of Sir William
Brooke, K.B. (nephew of Henry last Lord Cobham, i.c. son of his brother George who was
executed for high treason at Winchester 5 Dec. 1603) by his second wife Penelope, dau. of Sir
Moyses Hill, of Hillsborough, co. Down, Kt., M.P. for Antrim, 1613, and Provost-Marshal of the
Province of Ulster, 14 Apl. 1617. She was born about 1642, and six days before her marriage
had a warrant of precedency as the daughter of a baron. One of the famous beauties of the
Court, her career both before and after marriage seems not to have been quite without reproach,
and she died under rather mysterious circumstances on the 6th of Jan. 1666-7, and was buried
the 9th, in the middle chancel of St. Margaret's, Westminster. The license for this marriage was
granted by the Dean and Chapter of Westminster on the day it was solemnized.
3 Mar. Lic. D. and C. Westmr. 15 Mch. 1664-5, for William Scoles, widower, and Millicent
Thurlow, widow, both of St. Margaret's, Westminster.-Mrs. Jane Scoules was buried at St. Mar-
garet's 22 June 1657.-Baptized at St. Margaret's, 13 Jan. 1652-3, Mary, and 26 Dec. 1654,
John, children of Barnaby and Millicent Thurlow.- See a marriage 17 June 1683.
4 Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 14 Nov. 1665, for Thomas Peirson, Gent., bachelor, aged 37, and Mrs.
Joane Slaughter, widow, about 50, both of St. Margaret's, Westminster.
Mar. Lic. Fac. 23 Jan. 1665-6, for Thomas Clark, Minister of Hampton, co. Midx.,
bachelor, about 35, and Mary Fleming, of St. Gregory's, London, maiden, about 25, and at her
own disposal. The allegation was made by William Hayes, of St. Gregory's, Cutler.
6 He eldest son of Sir George Benyon, of London, Kt., by Alice dau. of Francis West of
London. He died a few months after his marriage. (George Benyon Esq. was one of the
Gentlemen of the Privy Chamber to King Chas. II. in 1661.) In the Mar. Lic. (D. and C.
Westmr.) she is called Eliz. Hackford. She remarried, shortly after her husband's death, the
Rev. John Ward, Vicar of Weedon, co. Northampton, the Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. being dated
23 Oct. 1667, and they were to marry at Misterton, co. Leicester. Mr. Ward was deprived of his
benefice in 1676, "for divers crimes committed and duties omitted" (Baker's Northants).
7 The note in Collectanea identifying the parties to this marriage as John, afterwards Duke
of Newcastle, and Lady Margaret Cavendish, is manifestly erroneous, for that John Holles was
not born until 9 Jan. 1661-2. "The Lord Holles" of this period was Denzell Holles, second son
of John first Earl of Clare, by Anne dau. of Sir Thomas Stanhope, of Shelford, co. Notts, Kt.
He was created Baron Holles, of Ifield, co. Sussex, 20 Apl. 1661. He died 17 Feb. 1679-80, aged
81 yrs. 3 mos. and 16 days, and was buried 10 Apl. following, in St. Peter's Church, Dorchester,
with his first wife, Dorothy, only dau. and heir of Sir Francis Ashley, of that place. According
to a Horoscope in Ashmol. MS. 243, Bod. Lib., he was born 31 Oct. 1599, at 9·10 p.m., and was
married to his first wife 4 June 1626, who died 21 June 1640. He married, secondly, Jane, eldest
dau. and coheir of Sir John Shirley, of Isfield, co. Sussex, who had previously been the wife
successively of Sir Walter Covert of Slougham, co. Sussex, Knt., and of John Frekc, of Cerne,
co. Dorset, Esq. The License for the latter marriage was issued at the Faculty Office 20 Dcc.
1632, she being then described as of Greenland, co. Bucks, and aged about 34. She was married
to Lord Holles 12 March 1641-2, according to the Horoscope above mentioned, and in her will,
dated 31 July 1658, her ante-nuptial Settlement is cited, bearing date 10 Mch. 1641-2. She was
buried at Iwerne Courtnay, co. Dorset, 25 April 1666.
The blank in this entry should doubtless be filled with the name of Lord Holles's third wife,
WESTMINSTER ABBEY.

viz., Esther, second dau. and coheir of Gideon Le Lou, Lord of the Manor of Columbiers in
Normandy, and widow of James Richer, Lord of Cambernon in the same province. Her will is
dated 24 Aug. 1683, she then being ill in the manor house Deschamps, in the parish of Lieury, in
France. She left all her estate to her children by her former husband, but directed that her body
should be carried to Dorchester, to be buried near her last husband Lord Holles. From docu-
ments attached to her will, she appears to have died after 22 June 1684, and letters of administra-
tion were granted 23 Dec. in that year.
¹ See his burial 5 Apl. 1679, and hers 17 Mch. 1689-90.
2 The Mar. Lic. (D. and C. Westmr.) is dated 25 Nov. She was baptized at St. Olave, Hart
Street, London, 5 Jan. 1642-3, as dau. of Lewis and Margaret Tyte, and was buried there 6 Sep.
1677.-The will of Thomas Harewell, of Westminster. Gent., dated 27 Aug. 1688, was proved 21
Nov. 1690, by the relict Elizabeth. He left books to Worcester Cathedral, where he was educated.
3 The identification in Collectanea of Dr. Lloyd as Bishop of Llandaff, Peterborough, and
Norwich, is erroneous. This William Lloyd was son of Richard Lloyd, B.D., Rector of Sonning
and Vicar of Tilehurst, co. Berks, by his wife Joan Wickins, and was born at Tilehurst Aug.
1627, being baptized there the 26th of that month. He matriculated at Oxford, from Oricl College
25 Mch. 1639, aged 11, but removed next year to Jesus Coll., and was B.A. Oct. 1642, M.A. at
Cambridge 1660, B. and D.D. at Oxford 2 July 1667, and successively rector of Bradfield, co. Berks,
Dec. 1654; King's chaplain, 1666; Vicar of St. Mary's, Reading, 9 Jan., and prebendary of Salisbury
6 Feb. 1667-8; Archdeacon of Merioneth, 13 June 1668; Dean of Bangor, 2 May 1672; Vicar
of St. Martin in the Fields, 31 Jan. 1676-7; consecrated Bishop of St. Asaph, 3 Oct. 1680; con-
firmed Bishop of Coventry and Lichfield, 20 Oct. 1692; and translated to Worcester, 22 Jan.
1699-1700. He died 30 Aug. 1717, in his 91st year, and was buried 10 Sep. following at Flad-
bury, co. Worcester. His wife was eldest dau. of Walter Jones, D.D., Prebendary of Westminster
(see his burial 15 July 1672), by his wife Philippa dau. of Dr. Samuel Fell, Dean of Christ
Church, Oxford, where she was baptized 18 Nov. 1646. She died 17 Sep. 1719. (See her
brother's baptism 10 Dec. 1663, and her sister's marriage 7 Feb. 1675-6.)
He of Elymore Hall, co. Durham, Gent., and died in 1680, aged 35. She dau. of Sir
Henry Firebrace, Kt., Chief Clerk of the Kitchen to Kings Chas. I. and II., by his first wife,
Elizabeth, dau. of Thomas Davill of Stoke Golding, co. Leicester. She survived her husband 35
years, dying 28 Nov. 1715, aged 74, and was buried in the church of Pittington, co. Durham.
The Mar. Lic. (D. and C. Westm.) is dated 5 Jan. 1669-70, and, as the same occurs with
reference to the next entry, it is clear that the error is in the Register, and that the date should
be a year later.
5 He eldest son of Sir Timothy Tyrrell, of Oakley, co. Bucks. and Shotover, co. Oxon, Kt., by
Elizabeth only dau. and heir of the Most Rev. Dr. James Usher, Archbishop of Armagh, and
was baptized at St. Giles in the Fields, 14 May 1642. He was admitted to Gray's Inn 7 Jan.
1655-6. He was author of a well known General History of England, and died 7 June 1718.
(See his sister's marriage 3 Dec. 1672.) She only dau. and heir of Sir Michael Hutchinson, of
Fladbury, co. Worcester, Kt., one of the Body Guard to King Chas. I., by Mary eldest dau. of Sir
John Brereton, Kt., and sister of William second Lord Brereton. She died in 1687, and was
buried at Oakley. The Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. is dated 18 Jan. 1669-70 (see end of preceding note).
Their son and heir, James, became a Lieut.-General in the Army, and was Governor of Gravesend
and Tilbury Fort.
(This entry is only in the unofficial register mentioned in the Preface).-Mar. Lic. Vic.
Gen. 28 Apl. 1679, for Jenkin Flucllen, of St. Martin in the Fields, Apothecary, bachelor, about
22, and Mary Chapman, of the same parish, spinster, about 17, with consent of her mother Mrs.
Katherine Bristow, wife of Mr. John Bristow to marry at Walthamstow, co. Essex.

Old Fish Street.-Baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 21 Oct. 1647, Ann dau. of Anthony
and Elizabeth Tingle.-Buried, at St. Margaret's, 10 Nov. 1665, Mr. Anthony Tingle, in the

as parish clerk of St. Margaret's, Westminster, 31 July 1663. Dr. Robert Newell, Sub-dean of
Westminster, in his Will dated 11 June 1642, mentions his "servant Anthony Tinglc."

6 Date in Collectanca erroneously 10 Mch.
:
7 The unofficial register gives the date as 24 Nov. and says "A wedding their names
unknown.”—Married, at St. Martin in the Fields, 12 Dec. 1675, Henry Hemmings and Alicia
Newman, both of that parish.
9 He eighth and youngest son of Sir Nathaniel Barnardiston, of Kedington, co. Suffolk, Kt.,
by Jane dau. of Sir Stephen Soame, of Little Thurlow Hall, same county, Kt. He was a
merchant of London, and of Hoxton, Midx., and was buried at Kedington, 7 Jan. 1691-2. Shc a
dau. of Sir Richard Lloyd, of Halam, Notts. The record of a hatchment in a Herald Painter's
Work Book at the College of Arms establishes the date of her death as about 11 May 1687, and
she was buried at Kedington on the 19th. A second wife has been assigned him in the accounts
of the family, viz., Mary dau. of Sir Samuel Luke, who is also said to have remarried Samuel
Blackerby, Esq. If so (and the fact seems confirmed by the record of another hatchment in the
Work Book above mentioned, dated 1 Jan. 1691-2, where the coats-of-arms ordered to be painted
are those of Barnardiston impaling Luke) the marriage must have taken place on his death bed.
He was a widower at the date of his will, 20 Dec. 1691, for the first. item in it reads. "I give to
Mrs. Mary Ellis my intended wife £100." Mary, dau. of Sir Samuel Luke, was baptized at
St. Anne, Blackfriars, 27 Jan. 1640-1, and would have been 50 years of age at this time.
Le Neve, in his Baronets (MS. Coll. Arm.) says Arthur Barnardiston's second wife was "Mary
dau. of Samuel Luke of Woodend, Cople, Beds," without giving him the knightly prefix. It
may be doubted, therefore, that she was a daughter of Sir Samuel, but it seems clear that she
was a Luke, and widow of an Ellis. She married, first, Simon Middleton, of Hackney, Midx.,

Esq. (father of Sir Hugh, first Bart.) to whom she was fourth wife. In the Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen.,
dated 6 Apl. 1672, she is called " Mary Luke, of Woodon [Woodend], Beds, spinster, aged about
24, and at her own disposal." She renounced the probate of her husband's will 29 Nov. 1680,
and must have subsequently married Ellis, Barnardiston, and Blackerby in succession. She
survived the latter and appears to have died about 1 May 1718, on which day a hatchment was
ordered, to contain the arms of Blackerby impaling Luke. It has also been stated that this
Arthur Barnardiston's daughter Anne was the first wife of Edward Fowler, Bishop of Gloucester.
This is an error. He had no daughter of that name, and the Bishop's wife was his cousin,
daughter of Arthur Barnardiston, one of Cromwell's Masters in Chancery in 1655, as appears by
the inscription on her monument at Hendon, Midx.
¹ He brother of Isaac Houblon (see his marriage 18 Aug. 1670, and note). He was Governor
and Director of the Bank of England, and died 11 May, 1722, then of Langley, co. Bucks, in his
83d year.
She dau. of Sir Richard Hubert, of Langley, Groom Porter to Kings Chas. I. and II.,
by Dorothy dau. of John King, Bishop of London, and sister to Henry King, Bishop of
Chichester. She was born at Chichester 1642, and was buried 7 July 1703. Their only dau
Anne married Henry Temple, first Viscount Palmerston, and was great-grandmother of the late
Lord Palmerston.
2 Mar. Lic. Fac. 21 Sept. 1664, for William Nutley, of the Middle Temple, Gent., bachelor,
about 36, and Mary Preston, of St. Mary Savoy, widow, to marry at St. Mildred, Poultry.-Mar.
Lic. D. and C. Westminster, 22 Apl. 1672. for William Nutley, of the Inner Temple, widower,
and Catherine Fettiplace, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, widow. William Nutley was admitted
to the Middle Temple 17 July 1651, as son of William Nutley late of the town of Southampton,
Gent., deceased. His will, dated 25 Feb. 1684-5, was proved 21 June 1686, and this wife also
died before its date.
3 He eldest son of Thomas Warre, of Swell, co. Somerset, Esq., by Anne dau. of George
Speke, of White Lackington, same county, Esq. She dau. of Richard Newman, of Fifehead
Magdalen, co. Dorset, Esq., by Anne, eldest dau. of Sir Charles Harbord, Kt.. Surveyor-General.
She was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 13 Sep. 1653. The Mar. Lic. D. and C. West-
minster, is dated 22 Apl. preceding. She died before her husband, and was buried in Shepton
Beauchamp church, co. Somerset, leaving four children. His will is dated 24 Oct. 1685, and
Admon. was granted 26 Jan. following. A second wife, Cicely, survived him. (See marriages of
her sisters 15 July 1675 and 6 Jan. 1675-6, and burials of her brother and sister 25 July 1668 and
23 July 1673.)
4 See his burial 18 Nov. 1675. In the unofficial register her name is written Carly. Rightly
she was Dame Elizabeth Calley. She was Dr. Willis's second wife, and is mentioned in his
will; but his grandson, Browne Willis, the Antiquary, appears to have ignored this marriage,
and even her existence, as no record of it or her appears among his accounts of the family. The
Biographia Britannica (first Edit. p. 4295), barely mentions her as a Knight's widow, named
Elizabeth Cawley." Curiously enough, also, there is no record or tradition of this marriage in
the family history of her first husband, as the editor is informed by the present representative of
that family. And yet there scems no good reason why the memory of her connection with the
most eminent Physician of his age should have been doomed to oblivion. She was the eldest
dau. of the Rev. Dr. Matthew Nicholas, Dean of St. Paul's (who died 14 Aug. 1661) by Elizabeth,
dau. of William Fowke, of Bulwick, co. Northampton, and was thus nicce to Sir Edward
Nicholas, the well known Secretary of State to K. Chas. II. She married, first, Sir William
Calley, of Burderop Park, Wilts, who was knighted 23 Nov. 1661. and administered to his estate
24 Jan. 1669-70. After Dr. Willis's death, she remarried, and was third wife to, Sir Thomas
Mompesson, of Bathampton, Wilts, Kt., who died 11 June 1701 and was buried in Salisbury
Cathedral. She died, his widow, 29 Nov. 1709, in her 75th year, and was buried in Winchester
Cathedral. Her brother, the Rev. Dr. John Nicholas, then Prebendary of Winchester, and some
time Warden of New College, Oxford, administered to her estate 7 Jan. following.

In the unofficial register only. Mar. Lic. Fac. 16 Sep. 1672, for Sir John Ernle, of Bury-
town, Wilts, Kt., widower, and Dame Elizabeth Seymour, widow, relict of Charles Lord
Seymour, late Baron of Trowbridge, in said county, deceased. This is the only license to be
found at either of the three offices, near this date, authorizing the marriage to take place in the
Abbey; which is probably a sufficient identification of the parties. He was son of John Ernle
of Whetham, co. Wilts, Esq., by Philadelphia dau. of Sir Arthur Hopton of Wytham, co.
Somerset, Kt. He was knighted Nov. 1665, became Chancellor of the Exchequer 21 Nov. 1679,
which post he retained until the end of the reign of K. James II., and was also of the Privy
Council, being sworn 10 May 1676. His will, dated 28 Aug. 1696, was proved 29 Nov. 1698, and
he was buried at Calne, co. Wilts. She was eldest dau. of William first Lord Alington, by
Elizabeth dau. of Sir Lionel Tollemache, second Bart. of Helmingham, co. Suffolk. By her first
husband (to whom she was also second wife) Charles second Lord Seymour of Trowbridge, who
died 1665, she was mother of the fifth and sixth Dukes of Somerset. By her second husband
she had two daughters. She was buried at Horseheath, co. Cambridge, 30 Oct. 1691.
2 He eldest son of Robert Werden of Leyland, co. Lancaster, and of Cholmeaton, co. Chester,
Esq., Major General to K. Jas. II. and Treasurer to Q. Mary, by his first wife Jane Backham of
co. Kent. He was created a Baronet 28 Nov. 1672, and D.C.L. at Oxford 22 May 1683. He held
various important public appointments, among them that of Secretary to H.R.H. the Duke of
York when Lord High Admiral, and was Commissioner of the Customs in the reigns of Kings
James II. and William, and Q. Anne. She, his first wife, is only known in the records of the
family as a dau. of the Rev. Dr. Osborne, and had no issue. He remarried Mary dau. of William
Osborne of Kenyford, co. Devon, Esq., by whom he had issue, but the title became extinct on the
death of their son Sir John, second Bart., 13 Feb. 1758. He and both wives were buried at St.
Martin in the Fields; Dame Lucy, 7 Feb. 1678-9; Dame Mary, 22 Aug. 1683; and himself
7 Nov. 1716, having died 29 Oct. preceding, in his 77th year. In the register of that parish, as
well as in the Oxford record, the surname is invariably Worden.
3 He fourth but second surviving son of Sir Henry Blount, of Tittenhanger, Herts, Kt., by
Hester dau. and coheir of Christopher Wasc, of Upper Holloway, Midx., Esq. (and widow of
Sir William Manwaring of Chester, Kt.), and was born at Upper Holloway 27 Apl. 1654. He
was a man of considerable literary celebrity in his day, but after his wife's death his mind
appears to have become somewhat unhinged, and he shot himself on the 28th of July 1693, be-
cause, as is alleged, he could not marry her sister, and died from the effects of the wound on the
31st Aug. following. She a sister of James Tyrrell, Esq. (see his marriage 18 Jan. 1668-9, and
note), being fourth dau. of the same parents. She was buried in the church of Rolleston, co.
Stafford, 27 Feb. 1688-9, but was afterwards removed and interred with her husband at Ridge,
co. Herts.
4 In Mar. Lic. D. and C. Westmr. 5 Dec. 1672, he is called only Philip Littleton, and she
Frances Stock, both single. See his father's burial 12 May 1673. He was second son. See his
own burial 1 July 1686.
5 She probably the youngest daughter of Sir Erasmus De la Fontaine of Kirby-Bellars, co.
Leicester, Kt., by his second wife Mary eldest dau. of Sir Edward Noel first Viscount Campden.
She is named in her father's will, dated 5 Oct. 1671, with a codicil 13 Mch. 1671-2, and proved
28 Mch. 1672, and was then unmarried.
6 Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 8 Mch. 1672-3, for Richard Langley of Bcxwells, co. Essex, Gent.,
bachelor, aged 28, and Mrs. Cecill Ellis, of St. Martin in the Fields, spinster, aged 18, with
her mother's consent. He was knighted 5 Mch. 1672-3, as son of Alderman Langley of London.
His will, as of St. Martin in the Fields, dated 8 Feb. 1677-8, was proved 30 Oct. following, by
his friend Thomas Francis of the same parish. He left all his estates in Mold, co. Flint, and in

elder brother of Lawrence fifth Viscount, whom she also survived. She died, without issue, at
Bath, 22 July 1715, in her 58th year, and was buried at Broughton, co. Oxford. Her Christian
name, according to all the records, was Cecill, and she so signed her will. Her first husband
appears not to have been officially recognised as a knight, not having paid the customary fees,
and she is not called "Lady" either in her will or the probate.
¹ He son of Edward Skipwith, of Gosberton and Grantham, co. Lincoln, Esq., by Elizabeth
dau. of Sir John Hatcher, of Careby (erroneously called Coteby in the Baronetages), co. Lincoln,
Kt., who were married at Careby 18 May 1617. He was knighted 29 May 1673, made a Serjeant
at Law 21 Apl. 1675, and created a Baronet, as of Metheringham, co. Lincoln, 27 July 1678.
He died at his house in Lincoln's Inn Fields 2 June 1694, and was buried at Upminster, co.

Maddison of Caistor, co. Lincoln, Esq., where he was buried 30 Mch. 1672. She survived her
second husband, and was buried at Caistor aforesaid 19 Mch. 1697-8.
2 The Baronetages call this Sir John Williams son of Sir John Williams who was created a
Baronet 22 Apl. 1642, as of Minster, Isle of Thanet, co. Kent; but this is an error. Sir John
Williams of Minster died a bachelor, 27 Feb. 1668-9, and is so described in the record of
administration, which also says that he died in the Inner Temple. His brother, Sir Edmund
Williams, was also created a Baronet, 19 Apl. 1642, and married Mary, fourth dau. of Sir John
Beaumont, first Bart. of Grace Dieu, co. Leicester, who afterwards remarried John Tasburgh,
Esq. Sir John Williams of this entry was the only issue of that marriage, and was baptized at
St. Andrew's, Holborn, 11 Sep. 1642. He succeeded his father as second Bart. of Marnhull, on
his death in 1644. He succeeded also to Minster Court, the estate of his uncle, and was his
administrator. He died in St. Martin in the Fields, and his wife administered to his estate
22 Nov. 1680. She was dau. of Sir Thomas Skipwith by bis first wife (see preceding entry and
note), and, if the reports of the day are to be accepted, one of the favourites of the Duke of
York. See her burial 26 Sep. 1689. Her will, dated 15 Sep., was first proved by her father,
13 Jan. 1689-90, and afterwards, 7 Jan. 1692-3, by her two daughters, Mary, then wife of
Charles Petty, Baron Shelburne (in Ireland), and Susanna, then unmarried, but for the burial of
whose husband see 28 Feb. 1716-7.
3 Mar. Lic. D. & C. Westmr., dated the preceding day, gives the names only. His will,
dated 13 Aug. 1691, was proved the 27th of the same month by his relict Elizabeth. He is
called of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Tallow Chandler, and bequeaths the lease of his four
houses in Tuthill Fields to his wife for life, with remainder to her son John Morfee (indicating
her previous marriage), remainder to his own brother Thomas Cottie, and his sisters Mildred
Cottie and Hannah Wolfe.
4 His monument in Hereford Cathedral states that he was thrice married, and names this
lady as his first wife. She was dau. of Sir Edward Honywood, Kt. and first Bart. of Evington,
Kent, by Elizabeth dau. of Sir John Maynard, of Tooting, Surrey, Kt. His second Mar. Lic.
(Vic. Gen.) is dated 11 Aug. 1675 (the lady named being Elinor Guise), and he is described as
then of St. Martin in the Fields, Citizen and Draper of London, widower, about 25. It is
probable, therefore, that an entry in the burial register of that parish, under the date of 2 July
1674, viz., " Alder, woman," refers to this Elizabeth, his first wife. He became Mayor of
Hereford, 1696, and, dying 3 Oct. 1717, in his 68th year, was buried in the Cathedral. (See her
brother's marriage 15 July 1675.)

1 He only son and heir of William Howard (fourth son of Thomas first Earl of Berkshire)
by Elizabeth dau. of Lothiel, Lord Dundas. She dau. of Thomas Ogle of Pinchbeck, co. Lincoln,
Esq., by Anne dau. of Sir John Read of Wrangle, same county, Kt., and was Maid of Honour
to Queen Katharine. See her burial 8 July, 1682. Evelyn calls this a clandestine marriage,
stigmatizes her as an ancient maid," and intimates that she exerted an unhappy influence over
her husband. Their only dau. Anne died unmarried. He remarried (Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 30 May
1683) Mary, dau. and heir of George Bowes of Elford, co. Stafford, Esq., and their son Henry-
Bowes succeeded as fourth Earl of Berkshire. Craven Howard died 7 June 1700, and was buried
at Elford aforesaid, (See the marriage of his sister 13 Nov. 1677, and burial of another, viz.,
Mrs. Graham, 17 Dec. 1701.)
2 He second son of John Upton of Lupton, co. Devon, Esq., by Dorothy dau. of Sir Anthony
Rouse of Halton, co. Cornwall, Kt., and was a merchant in London. He married, first, Elizabeth
dau, of John Bence, of London, by whom he had only one daughter, and, secondly, Jane, dau. of
Sir John Lytcot of Moulsey, co. Surrey, Kt., by whom he had four sons and three daus., and who
was buried at Stoke Newington, Midx., 8 Aug. 1672, where he was also buried 10 Dec. 1689, aged
about 73. She, his third wife, was dau. of a Mr. Stow, of Canterbury, and married, first, a Mr. Agar,
and, secondly (Mar. Lic. Bp. Lond. 24 Nov. 1666) the Rev. Dr. James Meggs, rector of Newington,
co. Surrey, and of Theydon Garnon, co. Essex, who died 22 Jan. 1672-3, and was buried at Theydon
Garnon. She survived her third husband, and was buried with him, at Stoke Newington, 4 Oct.
1713. See the burial of her sister, Mrs. Gibbs, 12 Dec. 1710.
3 He only son of Sir Richard Howe, second Bart. of Compton, by Anne dau, of Dr. John
King, Bishop of London, and relict of John Dutton of Sherborne, co. Gloucester, Esq. In the
Mar. Lic. he is called of Grobham, Wilts, bachelor, aged about 22. He was M.P. for Wilts,
succeeded as third Bart. in 1703, and died, without issue, 3 July 1730. She is erroneously called
"Elizabeth" in the Abbey Register. Her name was Mary, and is so given in the Mar. Lic. Vic.
Gen., dated 11 Aug. 1673, in which she is described as of St. Paul's, Covent Garden, spinster,
about 18. She was eldest dau. of Sir Henry Frederick Thynne, first Bart. of Kempsford, by Mary
dau. of Thomas first Lord Coventry, and therefore sister to Thomas first Viscount Weymouth.
She died 5 Sep. 1735, and her will, as Dame Mary Howe, was proved 22 Nov. following. See
her sister's marriage, 3 Dec. 1674.
4 He cldest son of Rev. Stephen Lodington, Rector of Leadenham, co. Lincoln, by his wife
Susanna Leedall, and was baptized at Leadenham 22 July 1610. He became Rector of Carlton
Scroope, in that county, as carly as 1640, and was collated to the Archdeaconry of Stow, 14
Nov. 1641, both of which preferments he held until his death, as he did also the rectory of Potter
Hanworth, in the same county, to which he was instituted 18 July 1663. He was also collated
to a Prebend of Lincoln, 15 Nov. 1641, which he resigned 7 May 1674, in favour of his only
surviving son. He was created S. T. P. at Cambridge, by the King's command, in 1661. He
died the 7th and was buried 10 Feb. 1676-7, at Carlton Scroope, and not in Lincoln Cathedral,
as is sometimes erroneously stated. She was his second wife, and he her third husband.
She was the youngest dau. and coheir of Thomas Streatfeild, of Shorehamn, co. Kent, Esq., by
Frances dau. of John Reeves, of London, Esq., and had previously been the wife of, first, William
Stanley, of the Middle Temple, Esq., and secondly, of the Rev. Samuel Dillingham. She appears
to have survived her last husband. (See the marriage of his daughter, 27 May 1680; and, per-
haps, of his brother, 20 Apl. 1680.)

wife, 25 July 1690 and 27 May 1693.
2 Probably the Nicholas Johnson buried 21 Apl. 1682, and she his second wife, buried at St.
Margaret's, Westminster, 16 Apl. 1675. Letters of administration were granted, 4 July 1688, on
the estate of Dorothy Johnson alias Maplesden, late of St. Martin in the Fields, to Isabella
Snelling, spinster, niece by sister and next of kin to deceased. She was dau. of Peter Maplisden,
of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Gent., whose will was dated 12 Jan. and proved 17 Feb. 1671-2,
and who was evidently of the Kentish family of that name.
3 He only son of Major General Brett, of Rotherby, co. Leicester, sometime Governor of the
Isle of Wight, by Frances dau. of Sir Henry Neville, of Billingbeere, co. Berks, Kt., and relict
of Sir Richard Worseley, first Bart. of Appuldercombe. He had been previously married to Anne,
dau. of Sir Ambrose Browne, first Bart. of Beechworth Castle, co. Surrey, by whom he had a
daughter who died young. (In the publication of their marriage at St. Bride's, Fleet Street, she
is called Mrs. Ann Leeds, and was probably a widow.) He was a Gentleman Pensioner in Ordi-
nary, and died the 24th and was buried 27 May 1682, at St. Margaret's, Westminster, aged 50 years
and 4 months. A tablet to his memory has been removed from its original position in the chancel,
and is now on the wall of the vestibule of that church. Mary, his second wife, was dau. of Col.
John Jeaffreson, of Dullingham, co. Cambridge. In the Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen., dated the day of the
marriage, her age is given as 23 years. She survived her husband, and remarried, but died before
30 June 1703, as on that day letters of Administration de bonis non were granted to Christopher
Jeaffreson, of Dullingham, Esq., on the estate of said Charles Brett, his relict and executrix,
Mary Morgan alias Brett, being also deceased.
4 He third and youngest son of Sir Thomas Hatton, first Bart. of Long Stanton, co. Cambridge,

Esq., by his first wife, Rebecca, dau. of Thomas Lovering, of the city of Norwich. In the Mar. Lic.

father's consent. She died July 1710. He was nephew to Sir Christopher Hatton buried 11
Sep. 1619.
5 He eldest son of Col. John Lowther, of Lowther, co. Westmoreland, by his first wife

Hackthorp Hall, in Lowther, in 1655. He succeeded to the (Nova Scotia) Baronetcy in 1675, and
was created Viscount Lonsdale 28 May 1696. He died 10 July 1700, aged 45 years 2 months
and 18 days, and was buried at Lowther. (See his sister's burial 23 Oct. 1724.) She second and
youngest dau. of Sir Henry Frederick Thynne, first Bart. of Kempsford, by Mary dau. of Thomas
first Lord Coventry, and was born at Caus Castle, in Shropshire, 21 Sep. 1653. Her will, dated
30 Sep. 1711, was proved 25 June 1713. See her sister's marriage 12 Aug. 1673.
His name is erroneously Woolseby in Collectanea, and the unofficial register gives it as
Woolfe.-Letters of Administration on the estate of Bartholomew Woolfe, of St. Andrew Hubbard,
London, were granted, 1 Oct. 1720, to the relict Susan, perhaps a second wife,

Elizabeth Cotter, also of St. Margaret's, a widow, aged 42. They were also to marry in the

had taken up goods for the College, and had not paid them money given him for that purpose."
She was his third wife (see burials of his first and second, 6 Apl. 1665, and 18 June 1676). This

1667, 11 Mch. 1678-9, and 20 Feb. 1680-1.) A dau. evidently of this marriage, named Ryall, was

A couple married by Dr. North.2
Sir Edward Pickring and Philadelphia Dawning.3
Martin Foster and Katherin Washington.*
Mr. Ashburnham and Mrs. Vaughan.5
1 Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 13 Mch. 1675-6, for William North of St. Mary Magdalen, Bermondsey,
mariner, a bachelor, aged about 23, and Elizabeth Stone, of Oxted, co. Kent, spinster, about 18,
with consent of her father, Thomas Stone, yeoman to marry at Oxted. But there is perhaps too
great a discrepancy in dates, and it is possible that this William North was a relative of the Rev.
Dr. John North, mentioned in the next entry (fourth son of Dudley, fourth Lord North), who was
then a Prebendary of Westminster, and died Master of Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1682.
(This entry is in the unofficial register only.)
:
2 (In the unofficial register only). Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 23 Dec. 1676, for Timothy Puller, of
Sacombe, Herts, D.D., bachelor, about 38, and Mrs. Alice Codrington, of Kingston, Surrey, spinster,
about 25 to marry at Henry 7ths Chapel, Westminster. This seems sufficiently to identify the
"couple" whose names were unknown to the scribe 200 years ago. Timothy Puller, son and heir
of Isaac Puller of Hertford, Herts, Esq., by his wife Elizabeth, dau. of Gabriel Barbor of Hertford,
was admitted to Gray's Inn 12 Feb. 1657-8, but appears afterwards of Jesus College, Cambridge,
A.M. 1660, S.T.B. 1667, and S.T.P. 1673. He became Rector of Sacombe 11 July 1671, and of St.
Mary-le-Bow, London, 23 Sep. 1679, and held both livings until his death. His will, dated 9 Oct.
1693, was proved 23 Jan. following. Anthony Wood says that he died in Nov. 1693, and was
buried in the church of St. Mary-le-Bow. His wife was the only child of William Codrington,
of St. Gregory's, London, citizen and draper, by Mary dau. of William Haslefoot, of St. John
Zachary, London, Gent. She survived her husband, as did also two sons and two daughters.
3 Rightly Sir Henry Pickering, only son of Sir Henry Pickering, first Bart. of Whaddon, co.
Cambridge, by Elizabeth dau. of Sir Thomas Viner, first Bart., Lord Mayor of London in 1653.
He succeeded to the baronetcy, on the death of his father, 4 Mch. 1667-8. She, his first wife, was
second dau. of Sir George Downing, first Bart. of East Hatley, co. Cambridge, by Frances fourth
dau. of Sir William Howard, and sister of Charles first Earl of Carlisle. (See her sister's mar-
riage 16 Feb. 1685-6.) A daughter of this marriage, named Elizabeth, was baptized at St.
Margaret's, Westminster, 27 Nov. 1679. The mother probably died at Barbadoes, where Sir
Henry was living at the date of his mother's will, 1693, with a second wife, Grace Sylvester, of
that island, and where he also died. His will, dated 15 Apl., was proved 27 Oct. 1705. His
remains were brought to this country and buried at Whaddon. The baronetcy evidently became
extinct at his death.
4 He held, in 1673, the place of Comptroller of the Customs at Newcastle-on-Tyne, when he
petitioned the Government for the reversion of the same in behalf of his brother George. He was
buried, as "Captain Foster," at St. Martin in the Fields, 25 Mch. 1678, and in the record of ad-
ministration on his estate, 8 Apl. following, he is called of that parish, and "Esq"." The name
is sometimes written Forster. She was one of the four daus. and coheirs of Col. Henry Wash-
ington (eldest son of Sir William Washington, Kt., by Anne Villiers, half sister of George first
Duke of Buckingham), by Elizabeth dau. of Sir John Pakington first Bart. There was one dau.,
Catharine, of this marriage. Mrs. Foster remarried (Mar. Lic. Fac. 9 Mch. 1686-7), being then
about 27 years of age, Barnabas Tonstall, of the Middle Temple, Esq., son and heir of the Rev.
Frederick Tonstall, of Edgcombe, co. Surrey, and was living 24 Dec. 1698. The documentary
evidence connected with her history establishes the fact that her father had no male issue (at
least, surviving), and therefore destroys the theory that he may have been the ancestor of the
first American President.
5 John Ashburnham, son and heir of William Ashburnham, of Ashburnham, co. Sussex, Esq.,
by Elizabeth youngest dau. of John first Lord Poulett of Hinton St. George: he was born at

10 Jan. 1736-7).
¹ His will, dated 30 Jan. 1689-90, and proved 2 Feb. 1691-2, describes him as a gentleman,
of St. Benct Grace Church, London, where he was buried 28 Jan. 1691-2. His former wife,
Mary, named in his will, was buried at St. Bride's, Fleet Street, 16 Apl. 1670. By her he left a
son John (with wife Anne and children), and daus. Rebecca wife of Joshua Hopkins, and Eliza-
beth wife of John Rollestone. Elizabeth Fisher, his second wife, was probably the relict of
Lawrence Fisher, one of the singing-men of the Abbey (see his burial 4 Mch. 1671-2, and note).
She was dead at the date of her second husband's will.
2 Six children of this marriage were baptized, and one buried, at St. John's, Hampstead,
Midx., between 16 Mch. 1680-1 and 19 Oct. 1694, after which last date the name disappears from
the register. Four other daughters were born elsewhere. The only Daniel in the editor's exten-
sive Lodington collections was a younger brother of Archdeacon Lodington (see his marriage 14
Aug. 1673), who was baptized at Leadenham, co. Lincoln, 5 Oct. 1626, and who, though advanced
in life, would not have been necessarily too old for this marriage. He was living as late as 26
July 1699, but died before the date of his wife's will. The unofficial register gives the name as
that family always wrote it, viz. Lodington. She was second dau. of James Ware, formerly
Citizen and Vintner of London, but described in his will, in 1671, as of Hampstead, Midx.,
Gent., by his wife Elizabeth dau. of Thomas Prouse of Willesden, co. Devon, Esq. Her will, as
of South Mimms, Midx., dated 12 Aug. 1726, was proved 13 Nov. 1733.

1673), by his first wife, Dorothy, eldest dau. of William Dolben, D.D., Rector of Stanwick, co.
Northampton, and niece of John Dolben, at this time Bishop of Rochester and Dean of West-
minster, afterwards Archbishop of York. She was born 20 Jan. and baptized at Carlton-Scroope,
co. Lincoln, 17 Feb. 1656-7, and was living in 1689. A son of this marriage became an eminent
physician at Chester.
4 He second but eldest surviving son of Sir Ralph Verney, first Bart. of Middle Claydon,
Bucks, by Mary dau. and heir of John Blacknall of Wasing and Abingdon, Berks, Esq. In the
Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. he is called of London, merchant, a bachelor, aged about 35. He succeeded
as second Bart. 24 Sep. 1696, and was created, 16 June 1703, Baron Verney of Belturbet and
Viscount Fermanagh in the peerage of Ireland. He died the 23rd and was buried 28 June
1717, at Middle Claydon, in his 76th year. See his second marriage 10 July 1692. She was
eldest dau. of Ralph Palmer of Chelsea, co. Midx., Esq., by Alice White, of the family of Dr.
Francis White, Bishop of Ely, and her age is given in the Mar. Lic. as about 16. She died
the 20th and was buried 28 May 1686, at Middle Claydon. Her only son, Ralph, succeeded
as second Viscount Fermanagh, and was created Earl Verney. (An entry of the marriage of
"Mr. Vernon and Mrs. Elizabeth Palmer in the register of St. Luke's, Chelsea, under date of
1680," is evidently a merc memorandum referring to the ceremony, which undoubtedly took
place in the Abbey, although the place named in the license is Chelsea. The absence of the
precise date, and the incorrect spelling of the name, in the Chelsea register, render this almost
certain.)
In the unofficial register only. See her burial 17 Sep. 1682; also that of her husband's
second wife 4 Mch. 1684-5, and that of a child of one of the marriages 11 Oct. 1686.-Mar. Lic.

1683), in whose will her name appears to be written "Game." The unofficial register says
"John Tynchare junior maried to Chatherine Ginne,” and this book was kept by the father of her
husband. See baptisms of their children 1 Jan. 1686-7, 20 May 1689, 16 Mch. 1690-1, and 18

of Morden, co. Surrey, by Dorothy dau. of Robert Greenwell of the same place, Gent. A daughter
of this marriage was baptized at Morden 19 Mch. 1681-2 and buried there the same year, after
which the name disappears from the Morden register. The immediate predecessor of Rev.
Edward Booth in the Rectory was his uncle Rev. William Booth, and they were of the family of
that name at Wootton, co. Lincoln.
1 Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. same date, for Gilbert Gerrard of St. Martin in the Fields, co. Midx.,
Esq., aged 19 and upwards, with consent of his father Sir Gilbert Gerrard Kt. and Bart., and the
Hon. Mary Bartley, of the same parish, spinster, about 18, with consent of her guardian the Earl
of Dorset, her parents being dead.—He was son of Sir Gilbert Gerard, first Bart. of Fiskerton, co.
Lincoln (who was buried in York Minster 24 Sep. 1687), by his second wife, Mary, dau. and co-
heir of Dr. John Cosin, Bishop of Durham, and succceded as second Bart. She was only dau.
and beir (posthumous, or born very near the date of her father's death) of Charles Berkeley, Earl
of Falmouth (see his burial 22 June 1665), by Mary only surviving dau. of Col. Hervey Bagot
(younger son of Sir Hervey Bagot, first Bart. of Blithfield, co. Stafford), who remarried Charles
Sackville, sixth Earl of Dorset of that family, and died in 1679. She was divorced from her
husband in 1684, and died 18 Apl. 1693, in her 28th year, according to her monument at Bexley,
co. Kent, where she was buried. Sir Gilbert (usually called Sir Gilbert Cosin Gerard) remarried
the divorced (fourth) wife of Sir Samuel Morland (see note to a burial 24 Feb. 1679-80), and the
subsequent history and fate of this wretched couple are entirely unknown. The baronetcy be-
came extinct at his death.
2 He was of the family of Selwyn of Matson, co. Gloucester, Colonel of a regiment of
Foot, and Major General of the Forces. In 1701 he was appointed Governor of Jamaica, where
he died 5 Apl. 1702. She dau. of Richard Betenson of Wimbledon, co. Surrey, Esq. (eldest son of
Sir Richard Betenson Kt. and first Bart., but died in his father's lifetime), by Albinia dau. of Sir
Christopher Wray, of Ashby, co. Lincoln, Kt. Her will, as of Matson, widow, dated 7 Sep. 1736,
with a codicil 22 Dec. 1737, was proved 5 Jan. 1737-8.
3 He only surviving son of Dr. Thomas Willis, the celebrated physician of his day (see his
burial 18 Nov. 1675), by his first wife, Mary, dau. of Dr. Samuel Fell, Dean of Christ Church
(see her burial 3 Nov. 1670). He was born about 1658, probably in the parish of St. John, in the
city of Oxford. He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church, 22 Mch. 1672-3, aged 15; and was
B.A. 26 Oct. 1676, and M.A. 23 June 1679. He was afterwards of Whaddon and Bletchley, co.
Bucks, and, dying the 11th, was buried at the latter place 15 Nov. 1699. She dau. of Robert
Browne, of Blandford St. Mary, co. Dorset, Esq., by Alice dau. of Joseph Frankmore, of Shore-
ham, co. Sussex, merchant of London. She was born at Stepney, co. Midx., 2 June 1663, and,
dying the 9th, was buried at Bletchley 13 Jan. 1699-1700. This entry was unaccountably
omitted in Collectanea, and, which is still more extraordinary, Browne Willis, the celebrated
antiquary, who was their first child, does not appear, from a careful examination of his MSS.,
ever to have ascertained the date or place of their marriage. In one of his MSS. in the Bodleian
Library (4to 40.) a note in his handwriting gives the precise date and place of his mother's birth,
in order to correct the statement of her age on her monument, and he adds, "This was not
known till about 1737 Mr. Wotton, B.D., wrote these epitaphs about 1704.”
4 Sec a marriage 16 Apl. 1678. The unofficial register gives the prefixes "Mr." and "Mrs."
and his name as "Forster."
5 (In the unofficial register only.) See his burial 11 June 1713, and hers 17 Jan. 1727-8.
The marriage is not recorded in the register of Bromley, co. Kent, and probably took place in
the chapel of the Bishop's Palace there; the Bishop of Rochester being then also Dean of West-
minster, and the parties connected with the Abbey.
• He cldest son of John Godschall, of London, Merchant, and of East Sheen, co. Surrey, who
died in 1691, by his wife Jane. He was also an eminent Turkey Merchant in London, and of

year. She died before her husband. Their third son, Sir Robert Godschall, knighted 31 Oct.
1735, being then Sheriff of London, was afterwards Lord Mayor, and died in that office 26 June
1742. Their third dau. Jane was wife of the celebrated Sir John Barnard, Lord Mayor in 1737,
and thus ancestress of the late Viscount l'almerston and Lord Hotham.
1 He fourth but eldest surviving son of John Parker of Reigate, co. Surrey, Esq., by his
second wife, Anne, dau. of John Ashe, of Freshford, co. Somerset, Esq., and relict of Nathaniel
Barnard, of Shepton, co. Somerset. He died 23 May 1689, aged 35, and was buried in Reigate
church. His will, dated 13 May, was proved 28 June 1689. She dau. of James Ashe of
Fyfield, co. Wilts, Esq., brother of her husband's mother. She died 11 Sep. 1720, and was also
buried in Reigate church. They had issue, John, James, Anne, and Elizabeth, of whom the
three latter were living in 1693.
2 The unofficial register says: "Mr. Samuell Grascome maried to Mrs. Eliz. Watkins.
My Lord marred them privately, he being his curate att Bromley." Dr. John Dolben was then
Bishop of Rochester and Dean of Westminster. A Samuel Grascome was A.B. of Magdalen
Coll., Cambridge, 1664, and A.M. 1674.
3 Mar. Lic. Fac. 6 May 1682, for Thomas Chapman, of St. Andrew's, Holborn, bachelor,
aged about 25, and Elizabeth Ogden, of St. Margaret's. Westminster, spinster, aged 21, with
consent of her father, Richard Ogden, of Acton, co. Midx.

proved until 26 Apl. 1717. She eldest dau. of John Nedham, Receiver-General and Solicitor of
the Abbey (see his burial 13 Feb. 1705-6) by his wife Jane (see her burial 7 Apl. 1708). Her
will, dated 1 May 1724, was proved 19 Jan. following. See baptisms of their children

5 The baronetcy of Middleton of Ruthyn is usually said to have merged into that of
Middleton of Hackney, in 1675, on the decease without issue of Sir Hugh Middleton third
Bart. of the former creation. His successor is said to have been Hugh Middleton of
Hackney, eldest son of Simon Middleton (youngest son of Sir Hugh Middleton first Bart. of
Ruthyn, the projector of the New River) by his second wife. Mary, dau. of John Soame of
Burnham Market, co. Norfolk, Esq. This is a manifest error, as this last Hugh was himself
created a baronet 6 Dec. 1681, and there could have been no necessity for such a creation if he
was already a baronet by succession. This Sir Hugh, first Bart. of Hackney, married
Dorothy dau. of Sir William Oglander first Bart. of Nunwell, Isle of Wight, from whom he is
erroneously said to have been divorced. An Act of Parliament, which received the royal assent
2 May 1690, merely confirmed a settlement for her separate maintenance, and she died his wife
about 1700, and evidently without male issue. He is further said to have wasted his estate, and
to have died in obscurity about the commencement of the 18th century, when the baronetcy
became extinct. It has also been supposed that he was identical with a certain Hugh Middleton,
who resided at Kcmberton in Shropshire under the assumed name of William Raymond, and
died "10 March 1702." All writers have left the history of the two families, and the fate of
the two baronetcies, in the utmost obscurity, which this entry in the Abbey Register may at
least partially clear up. About the lady there can be no doubt whatever. She was dau, and
coheir of Henry Hall of Gretford and Burton Coggles, co. Lincoln, Esq., by Elizabeth dau. of
Sir Edward Hartopp first Bart. of Freathby, co. Leicester, and relict of Montague Cholmley of
Easton, co. Lincoln, Esq. The editor finds among his notes from the parish register of St.
l'eter's, Nottingham, the burial, 7 Mch. 1732-3, of "Dame Elizabeth Myddelton relict of Sir
Hugh Middelton Barnt." Her will is dated 30 Apl. 1731, in which she is called "of the town

of Nottingham, widow of Sir Hugh Middleton, Baronet." She left bequests to her son Sir
Hugh Middelton. Bart., and to her daus. Charlotte, Anne, and Margaret, and appointed said
Charlotte and Margaret joint executrices. The latter, as Margaret Middleton, spinster, proved
the will as surviving exccutrix, 8 Jan. 1735-6, the former having been buried at St. Mary's,
Nottingham, 2 Dec. 1735. The editor finds also among his notes from the register of St. Mary's,
Nottingham, the burial, 2 Feb. 1700-1, of "Sir Hugh Middleton, Baronet," and thinks there can
be little danger in regarding these two entries as referring to the persons married in the Abbcy.
As to the identity of Sir Hugh, the probability seems to be that Sir Hugh, third Bart. of
Ruthyn, did not, as has been supposed, dic without male issue, but that this was his son and
successor, numerically fourth Bart., and that his son Sir Hugh, named in his widow's will,
became fifth Bart., and was married, at St. Benet's, Paul's Wharf, London, 8 May 1716, to Ann
Comyns, of Chigwell, co. Essex, who were both buried at Chigwell, he 16 Nov. 1756, and she
31 Dec. 1764, having had a son Hugh, who succeeded as sixth Bart., and was sometime of
Chigwell, an object of common charity. The Sir Hugh buried at Nottingham in 1700-1 appears
to have left no will, which may indicate that he was in a reduced state, while the fact that his
widow's will was not proved until nearly three years after her death would justify the inference
that her bequests were comparatively unimportant. It may be added that Carlisle names
Sir Hugh Middleton, Bart., as one of the Gentlemen of the Privy Chamber in 1685, and that
Lc Neve, in his MS. Baronets, mentions as M.P., in 1694, Sir Hugh Middleton, Bart., "son of Sir
Hugh Middleton of Ruthyn and Elizabeth his wife," and this contemporaneous record, it must
be remembered, was nineteen years after the third Bart. of Ruthyn is said to have died without
issue. (A Sir Hugh Middleton, Bart., according to the Journal of the House of Lords, 20 Feb.
and 1 Mch. 1664-5, was Gentleman Usher in Ordinary to H.R.H. the then Duke of York.)
1 See her burial 10 Aug. 1686. He was Clerk of the Kitchen to the Queen Dowager in
1692.-Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 7 Feb. 1695-6, for William Yardley, of St. Clement Danes, Gent.,
widower, aged about 38, and Mrs. Elizabeth Symonds, of St. Mary Woolnoth, London, spinster,
about 28, and at her own disposal; to marry at l'utney, co. Surrey. (The marriage is not in the
Putney register.) He was buried at Greenwich, co. Kent, 14 Jan. 1706-7, and his will proved the
next day by his second wife and relict, Elizabeth, whose will, dated at Somerset House 19 May,
was proved 27 Oct. 1718.
2 Mar. Lic. Fac. 7 May 1683, for Charles Earle, of St. Clement Dancs, bachelor, aged about
24, and Mary Painter, of St. Martin's, Ludgate, spinster, about 23. (This entry in the unofficial

4 She apparently only dau. of Joseph Clendon, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, by Elizabeth
his wife, whose will was proved, 7 Nov. 1684, by her friend and kinsman John Clendon of the
Inner Temple, Esq., and whose estate was to be put out to the use of her daughter Sarah
Hammond and her children. (This entry in the unofficial register only.)
5 The unofficial register gives the names "Sisson" and "Mearne.'
>>
In Collins's Peerage (edit. 1756) this Henry Roberts is identified as one of the sons of
John first Earl of Radnor; but this is an error, as he died before 1 July 1678, on which day his
brother Francis administered to his estate. These parties were probably of less cxalted rank.
The unofficial register gives her name as "Corrinton."
7 See his burial 11 Feb. 1689-90, and the burial of her first husband 17 July 1683; also

widow, dated 12 May 1714, was proved (D. & C. Westmr.) 13 May 1715, by her dau. Barbara
Clarke, residuary legatee. The only other legatees were her son John Clarke, and her daus.

2 (In the unofficial register only.) Mar. Lic. Fac. 31 Dec. 1683, for James Georges, of
Baunton, co. Gloucester, Esq., widower. and Anne Shadwell of St. Martin's, Ludgate. widow.
She was doubtless widow of Thomas Shadwell, Gent., buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster.
22 Feb. 1682-3, whose will was proved 21 Mch. following by his relict Anne.
3 In the Letters of administration granted to his son James, 8 Dec. 1710. he is described as
of St. Martin in the Fields. She appears to have been a dau. of Henry Sawcer of Chesham,
Bucks (to whose estate his wife Anne administered 21 Feb. 1658-9), brother of Robert Sawcer of
Hemel Hempstead, Herts, Gent., whose will was proved 7 July 1681. She died before her
husband. (This entry in the unofficial register only.)
This entry, in Collectanea, is erroneously placed under the year 1685. See his bap-
tism 15 Apl. 1620, and burial 2 July 1689. This marriage does not appear in the accounts of
the Villiers family. She survived her husband and was his executrix. Her own will, dated
11 July 1727, was proved 3 Nov. 1738, by her sister Ann Love, spinster, between whom and her
sister Elizabeth Dockwray she divided her estate.

16 Feb. 1708-9, by the relict Anne (probably a second wife). (This entry in the unofficial
register only.)
• He matriculated at Oxford, from Queen's College, 14 Nov. 1661. aged 16, as son of Thomas
Milne, of Shap, co. Westmoreland. He signed his own name Milne in the Subscription
Book, but subsequently was known as Mill, and sometimes Mills. Against his name in the
matriculation register are the expressive University indicators of the lowest social rank, viz..
“Pl. pp.” and “Ser.,” but which, properly interpreted, may simply mean that he entered college
as a servitor. He took the degrees of B.A. 3 May 1666. M.A. 9 Nov. 1669, B.D. 8 July 1680, and
D.D. 8 Dec. 1681; became Prebendary of Exeter 29 Oct. 1677, Rector of Blechingdon, co. Oxford,
Aug. 1681, Principal of Edmund Hall, Oxford, 5 May 1685, and Prebendary of Canterbury
14 Aug. 1704, and was also Chaplain in Ordinary to King Chas. II. His chief literary labour
was the well known folio Greck Testament. He died the 23rd and was buried at Blechingdon
25 June 1707, and his father, as Thomas Mill, administered to his estate 12 July following.
The surname of his wife is a manifest error in the Abbey Register. She was youngest dau. of
Sir William Palmer, of Old Warden, Beds, Kt., by Dorothy third but eldest surviving dau. of
Sir John Bramston, Kt., Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench, who were married at St.
Mary Aldermanbury, London, 28 Jan. 1627-8. She died in the first year of her marriage, and
was buried at Blechingdon 14 Apl. 1685.
7 He, son of John Angier, Gent., Burgess of Westminster, by his wife Margaret, was
baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 11 May 1651. His will, as of Northaw, Herts, Esq.,
dated 19 July 1712, was proved 12 Nov. 1713, and he was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster,
the preceding day. She, his second wife, was dau. of Thomas Tyther, of Northaw aforesaid,
Citizen and Draper of London, and was living at the date of her husband's will.

coheir of John Dutton of Sherborne, co. Gloucester, Esq. He was brother of the first baronet

Resident at the Court of the Elector of Hanover, where he died. His will, dated 4 May 1689,
with a codicil 29 Aug. 1693, was proved 18 Jan. 1693-4. She, his third wife, was dau. of John
Garneys of Morningthorpe, co. Norfolk, Esq., and relict of William Shipman, of London,
Merchant. Her will, as of Ealing, Midx., dated 6 May 1725, was proved 1 July 1726.

burial 27 May 1640, and his uncle's 19 June, 1665.) He succeeded as fourth Earl 16 Nov. 1676.
On account of his adhesion to King James II. his immense estates (valued at a later period at
£200,000 per annum) were forfeited, but his life was spared on condition that he quitted England
never to return. He afterwards resided abroad, and died at Hamburg in 1734. Elizabeth
Spencer, second dau. of Robert second Earl of Sunderland, by Anne dau. of George Digby
second Earl of Bristol. After her husband's disgrace a considerable pension was allowed her by

She died in June 1704. See their daughter's burial, 16 Feb. 1734-5.
5 Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 31 Dec. 1684, for Nicholas Sankey, Esq., bachelor, aged about 26, and
the Hon. Mrs. Frances Trevor, spinster. about 21, her parents dead; both of St. Martin in the
Fields. This entry is in the unofficial register only, and the marriage does not appear to have
actually taken place in the Abbey. It is not, however, to be found in the register of St. Martin
in the Fields, although that church is the only one designated in the license, and hence this is
the only record of it. She was one of the daus. of Colonel Mark or Marcus Trevor, created
Baron Trevor and Viscount Dungannon, 28 Aug. 1662, by his first wife Frances, dau. and coheir
of Sir Marmaduke Whitechurch. Nicholas Sankey was in active military service at and after
this period, and was advanced to the rank of Lieut.-General, 10 Jan. 1710. His connection
appears to have been always with Irish regiments. His will, dated 8 Mch. 1719-20, was proved
4 July 1723; but from the record he evidently died before 6 Nov. 1722, having survived his wife,
and leaving no issue.
6 He only son of Sir Thomas Clayton, Kt., Warden of Merton College, Oxford, by Bridget
dau. of Sir Clement Cotterell, Kt. He was of the Vach, and lord of the manor of Chalfont St.
Giles, Bucks, where he died, without issue, 28 Nov. 1714, in his 65th year, and was buried in
the church. She was youngest dau. of Sir Joseph Alston first Bart. of Chelsea, Midx., by Mary
dau. and coheir of Mr. Crookenberg, a merchant of Bergem-op-zoom. She was baptized at Chelsea,
21 June 1663, and survived her husband until May 1730. (She was his second wife, as on the
1st June 1677 he had license from the Vicar-General to marry Elizabeth, dau. of Sir Richard
Grubham Howe, of Wishford, co. Wilts, Bart. She died in childbed, 9 Apl. 1681, and was buried
in Merton College Chapel.)
7 (In the unofficial register only.) He was son of William Withins of Eltham, co. Kent,
Gent., by Frances dau, of Robert King, of St. Mary Cray in the same county, Gent., and matricu-
lated at Oxford, from St. John's College, 13 Nov. 1650. He was afterwards High Steward of the

King's Bench 23 Apl. 1683 (but removed 21 Apl. 1687 for denying the King's right to exercise
martial law in time of peace without an Act of l'arliament), and Recorder of Kingston-on-Thames

was dau. of Sir Thomas Taylor, first Bart. of Park-House in Maidstone, co. Kent, by Elizabeth
dau. and heir of George Hall of the same place, Esq., and was born in 1656. She figures in the
"New Atalantis," and other authorities more trustworthy agree in the statement that she wilfully
involved her husband in debt for the purpose of getting him into prison. She is said to have
survived her husband and remarried Sir Thomas Colepeper, the last baronet of Preston Hall,
near Aylesford, Kent, but the accounts of that family do not mention her.
1 (In the unofficial register only). Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 6 June 1685, for Ambrose Norton,
bachelor, aged about 30, and Mrs. Margaret Littleton. widow, about 30, both of St. Martin in the
Fields. The allegation was signed by Mr. John Sharole, one of the minor canons of Westminster
(see his burial 8 Aug. 1687), and this fact leaves little doubt that they were the parties indicated
in the entry, which thus becomes one of considerable interest. He is elsewhere called Colonel
Ambrose Norton, and on his monument in the Abbey Church at Bath is described as cousin-
german of Sir George Norton of Abbotts-Leigh, co. Somerset. The inscription also states that he
served the Crown of England above forty years in civil and military employments. This was his
first wife, and she appears to have been a person of some importance, as in his will he mentions
her picture and a seal with the Littleton arms. She was living as late as 7 Oct. 1702, when
Frances-Teresa, Duchess Dowager of Richmond and Lenox, left her a legacy of £60; but must
have died soon after, as her husband married, secondly, Martha Lowe, who was buried at St.
Martin in the Fields 1 Feb. 1713-4. He then married. thirdly, at the Chapel Royal, Whitehall,
23 Apl. 1718, Dame Frances Norton, the widow of his cousin Sir George above mentioned, whose
memory has been preserved as one of the literary ladies of her age (see her burial 9 Mch. 1730-1).
Col. Norton died 10 Sep. 1723, in his 77th year.
2 Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 17 June 1685, for William Wyndham of Lincoln's Inn, Esq., bachelor,
aged about 24, and Rebecca Stroud, of Chevelyn, Kent, spinster, about 19, with consent of her
mother Dame Catherine Stroud.-He was son of John Wyndham of Dunraven, co. Glamorgan,
Esq., Serjeant-at-Law, and his will, as of Cowbridge, co. Glamorgan, dated 2 June 1691, was
proved 8 Dec. 1696. She was dau. of Sir Nicholas Strode, of Chevening, co. Kent., Kt., by his
second wife Catharine, dau. of John Savile of Methley. co. York, Esq., and relict of Sir William
Cholmley, of Whitby, Bart. Her will, dated 16 July, was proved 11 Aug. 1703.
3 He eldest son of Richard second Lord Byron, by his first wife Elizabeth dau. of George
Rossel of Ratcliffe-on-Trent, co. Notts, Esq., and widow of Nicholas Strelley, of Strelley, in the

Lydiard Millicent, Wilts, and widow of Edmund Webb of Minty aforesaid. Her will, dated 18
Dec. 1711, was proved 2 June 1712. The baptisms of ten of their children occur in the parish
register of Overton, as well as the marriages and burials of several of them. (It is possible that
a burial, 5 May 1691, refers to a former wife of Mr. Westwood).

Bride's, London, Esq., widower, aged about 30, and Theophila Smythe, of Epsom, Surrey, spinster,
about 20, with consent of her father William Smythe, Esq.-He supposed to be of humble Irish
descent, but acquired considerable social and political standing, and is often named in the
political pamphlets and squibs of his time. He appears to have been one of the Comptrollers of
the Army Accounts, a Director of the South Sea Company, and M.P. for Great Grimsby. He
appears also to have succeeded his father-in-law as Paymaster of the Band of Gentlemen Pen-
sioners, in 1720, which office was transferred seven years later to his sons James and Arthur
jointly. He was first married, 17 Mch. 1691-2, at St. Bride's, London, to Susanna, eldest dau. of
Dr. Edward Browne (eldest son of Sir Thomas Browne, author of Religio Medici "), President
of the Royal College of Physicians, by whom he had only two daus., viz. Janc, baptized at St.
Bride's 29 Aug. 1693, and buried there the next day, and Susanna, baptized 20 Jan. and buried
there 7 Feb. 1694-5. The mother was also buried at St. Bride's 2 Mch. 1694-5; but they all
appear to have been afterwards removed to Northfleet, Kent, where they have a monument. He
died 4 May 1730, and was buried at Fetcham, co. Surrey. His will, dated 6 Nov. 1729, was
proved 30 May 1730. (See an interesting account of him in Notes and Queries, 1st Ser. xi. 157,
177, 197.) She, his second wife, was dau. and heir of William Smythe, of the Inner Temple, Esq.,
Paymaster of the Band of l'ensioners, by Lady Elizabeth eldest dau. of George first Earl of
Berkeley. Her will, dated 12 Oct. 1738, was proved 26 Jan. 1739-40). Their eldest son William
(baptized at St. Andrew's, Holborn, 4 June 1699) succeeded to his father's, uncle's. and grand-
father's estates, and was M.P. for Banbury. He died, without issue, 24 Oct. 1746, making his
heir Frederick, afterwards the celebrated Lord North. The second son, Arthur, was baptized at
St. Giles in the Fields 1 Aug. 1700, aud buried there 7 June 1734. The third son, James,
assured his grandfather's name of Smythe, and is frequently mentioned as one of Pope's anti-
pathies. He died 18 Oct. 1734. There were three daus. by this marriage: Theophila, baptized
at St. Andrew's, Holborn, 9 June 1698, and buried at St. Giles in the Fields 30 Aug. 1703;
Elizabeth, baptized at St. Giles in the Fields 2 June 1701, who probably married Wyriot Ormond

Nov. 1704, and buried there 17 Jan. following.

-A Charles Osborne, Esq., was Licut. Governor of Hull in 1692, and M.P. for Hull 1690-8, but
he is said in the Peerages to have been a brother of the Duke of Leeds, and to have died
unmarried. (Query, if it should not read without issue).
3 The well known bookseller of his time, " at the Dial and Bible over against St. Dunstan's
Church in Fleet Street." The more notorious Curll was occupying these premises in 1710, and
Bosvile scems to have retired to St. Margaret's, Westminster, as carly as 1708, as his will is dated
9 Nov. in that year. He styled himself "Citizen and Stationer of London," and bequeathed all
his goods, one half to his wife Anne, and one half to his only child Elizabeth when of age or
married. He was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 30 Sep. 1717, and his will was proved
24 Oct. following by his relict Anne, who appears to have been also buried at St. Margaret's, as
the "widow Boswell," 7 Feb. 1717-8.

dated the previous day, he is called of the Middle Temple, bachelor, aged 28, but no record of
his admission is to be found in the Temple registers. He was afterwards of Bedford Row,
Holborn, and of Acton Place, Suffolk. He died suddenly, of apoplexy, 23 Feb. 1725-6, in his
54th year, and was buried at Acton. She only dau. and heir of Carew Guidott of St. Andrew's,
Holborn, and of Hampshire, Esq. (The following Mar. Lic. Fac., dated 23 Mch. 1671-2, appears
to be that of her parents: Carew Guidott, of Herriard, co. Southampton, Gent., bachelor,
aged about 30, and Ann Fuller, of Chamber House, co. Berks, spinster, about 22, dau. of
. . . Fuller, who consented thereto to marry at Herriard aforesaid.) She died 24 Dec. 1761,
aged 85, and was buried at Acton. Their only son, William, died unmarried 19 June 1798, in
his 98th year, leaving an immense fortune, which, although since legally distributed beyond the
possibility of disturbance, has excited the covetousness of a host of greedy claimants, on both
sides of the Atlantic, who are to this day wasting time and substance in pursuing the hopeless
enterprise of its recovery and redistribution among themselves.

Algernon Peyton first Bart., by Frances dau. and heir of Sir Robert Sewster, of Raveley, co.

45th year, and was buried at Doddington. She second daughter of George Dashwood, Esq.,
Alderman of London (by his wife Margaret Perry, of Thorpe, co. Surrey), and sister of Sir
Robert Dashwood, first Bart. of Northbrook, co. Oxford. She survived her husband.
5 He third son of Anthony Thorold, Esq. (second son of Sir William Thorold, first Bart. of
Marston, co. Lincoln), by Grisilla second dau. of Sir John Wray second Bart. of Glentworth in
the same county. He succeeded his two elder brothers as fourth Bart., and, dying without
issue, æt. 54, was buried at Syston, near Grantham, in that county. His will, dated 12 Dcc.
1712, was proved 15 Jan. 1716-7. She third wife and relict of Francis Coventry, Esq., second
son of Thomas first Lord Coventry (the Lord-Keeper), who died 15 Nov. 1699, in his 87th year,
and was buried at Mortlake, Surrey. She survived Sir John, her second husband, and founded
in her lifetime several important charities in Lincolnshire, which are still in successful operation.
Her will, dated 23 July, with a codicil 30 Oct. 1732, was proved 31 Jan. 1732-3, by Thomas
Coventry, Jr. She described herself as then of St. James's, Westminster, and directed to be
buried with her first husband at Mortlake, or with her second at Syston. She died the 23rd and
was buried at Mortlake 29 Jan. 1732-3, aged about 81.

family mention her simply as the relict of the Hon. Francis Coventry and daughter of
(( Waters," or "Walters, Esq.." sometimes adding "of Surrey." The accounts of the
Coventry family ignore her name altogether. Among the retainers of the Thorold family in
Lincolnshire, and the people in the neighbourhood of their scat, there exists to this day a
tradition that Sir John, the fourth baronet, married one of his menial servants. This is, of
course, an error, for, so far as he was concerned, his wife was a lady of considerable wealth, and
the widow of a baron's son. It is not improbable, however, that the story originally had some
basis, although the details were subsequently perverted. The facts, so far as the editor has been
able to trace them, appear to be these: Mr. Coventry, then a widower, was married at
Carshalton, Surrey, 31 Jan. 1665-6, to Lady Elizabeth, relict of Sir Edmond Hoskins, Kt.,
Serjeant-at-Law, and she was buried at Carshalton 16 Sep. 1688. On 22 Aug. 1689, as plain
"Francis Coventry," he obtained a license from the Faculty Office to marry
"Margaret
Waterer" (not Waters, nor Walters), described as a "maiden, aged about 37." In the
allegation they are both stated to be of Carshalton, and they were to marry at St. Paul's,
Covent Garden. They did not marry there, but about six weeks after, viz., 4 Oct. 1689, they
were married at St. Mary Abchurch, London, and the entry in the register describes them as
"Francis Coventry, of Carshalton, widower, and Margaret Waterer, of the same parish."
Mr. Coventry was born in 1613, and was therefore at this date seventy-six years of age, more than
double the age of his wife. His residence at Carshalton is explained by the fact that his second
wife's estate was there; but the name of Waterer does not occur in a single instance in the
parish register of Carshalton, from 1538 to 1812, which is an ample proof that it was not the
residence of her family. Under all these circumstances it is not unreasonable to suppose that
Miss Waterer had been a member of his second wife's family (perhaps a personal attendant or
upper domestic), whose good qualities he had had an opportunity of observing, and whom he
thus selected as a nurse and companion for his later years. Indeed, he says almost so much in
his own will, at the close of which he makes this extraordinary appeal to his family: "My
desire is that my will may be received, construed, and taken to the best advantage of my dear
wife, whom I take myself to be bound both in honour and conscience to provide for, as my wife,
and her that has expressed all the care and affection for me that I could desire to be applied to
me in this infirm and sickly part of my old age; and let all my relations be of the same mind,
and wish her the Godspeed, as they love me or hope for a blessing upon anything they have and
enjoy of mine." Such an appeal as this could hardly have been necessary if her rank and
social standing had been equal to his own, and is not to be explained by the disparity in age.
On the presumption advanced the Lincolnshire tradition would be accounted for, as also the
ignoring of his rank in the marriage license and in the record of the marriage, the marriage
itself at an obscure church in the city, instead of the then fashionable one named in the
license, and the entire absence of any record of her and her origin in the accounts of the two
families into which she married. Another fact may be mentioned in corroboration of this
theory. The body of her will is in the legal language of such documents, but the codicil,
evidently her own composition, both in sentiment and orthography, is clearly that of an
uneducated person. She gives no clew to her family in her will, but incidentally mentions that
she had preferred to provide for them in her lifetime.)
He matriculated at Oxford, from Trinity College, 17 Nov. 1671, aged 18, as son of Thomas
Hickes, of Warwick, "Pleb.," and was B.A. as of Magdalen College 26 June 1675, M.A. 16 Apl.
1678, B.D. 7 April 1690, and D.D. 2 June 1701, becoming a Prebendary of Exeter 11 Dec. 1706.
She was fifth and youngest dau. of Samuel Trotman, of Bucknell, co. Oxford, Esq., and of the
Inner Temple, Barrister-at-Law, by his second wife Mary dau. of Sir Samuel Warcupp, Kt., and
was living, a widow, at the date of her brother Samuel's will, 30 Jan. 1719-20.

1 John Whalley, Merchant, was of Freelands, in Bromley, co. Kent, at this date, and his wife
Maria-Bella was buried in Bromley Church on the 9th of May in this year, a son William being
baptized there on the same day. Two other of their children were baptized at St. Giles in the
Fields, Mirabella 18 June 1698, and Fenn 5 Feb. 1699-1700. This was probably a second marriage.
The name does not occur again in the Bromley register, and Freelands was shortly after in the
possession of another family.
2 He son and heir of Francis Milles, Citizen and Skinner of London, by Elizabeth his wife,
and was admitted to the Inner Temple 2 May 1694. He was previously married, at St. Bride's,
London, 15 Jan. 1690-1, to Mary Pannott (or Paynot), who in the marriage license is described
as a widow, but in the parish register as a spinster. By her he had a son John, and a dau. Eliza-
beth, married to John Dering, all of whom were living at his death. He was buried at St. Paul's,
Covent Garden, 27 Jan. 1717-18, aged about 55. His will, dated 13 Aug. 1702, was proved 3 Mch.
1717-18. His second wife survived him. She is described in the marriage license as a spinster,
aged about 26.
3 He eldest son of Robert Wither, Esq. (only son of George Wither the celebrated poet), by
Elizabeth, eldest dau. and coheir of John Hunt of Thedden, near Alton, Hants, Esq., and was born
in 1662. He became a Colonel of Foot in the British Army, and a Brigadier-General in the service
of Chas. II., King of Spain. He was buried at Shalden, Hants, 29 June 1718, where, until
recently, there was a monument to his memory in the churchyard. His will, as of Thedden afore-
said, dated 22 July 1717, was proved 17 July 1718. She is simply called in the accounts of his
family "dau. and heir of Robert Welstead of London," but her domestic history, which has been
somewhat difficult to trace, was so remarkable as to deserve a more extended notice, which may
be gathered from the fact that Mr. Wither was her fourth husband in less than eight years. She
married, first, Henry Perin, a physician, who died 4 June 1694, aged 31. and was buried in
Winchester Cathedral; secondly, Richard Wilson, also a physician, of St. Andrew's, Holborn,
whose will was dated 18 Nov. and proved 9 Dec. 1697; thirdly (Mar. Lic. Fac. 4 Feb. 1698–9),
Edward Alpe, also a physician, who died 25 Dec. 1700, and was buried at Little Bealings, co.
Suffolk; fourthly, General Wither, as in the text. By her first husband she had an only child,
Dorothy Perin, who was married before 1717 to Thomas Bonham, Gent. By her second husband
she had no surviving issue; but a still-born child (evidently posthumous) was buried at St.
Andrew's, Holborn, 14 Dec. 1697. By her third husband she had only one child, Edward Alpe,
who was baptized at Framlingham, Suffolk, Jan. 1699-1700, and buried there 4 June following ;
and by her fourth only one son, Henry Wither, who was living in 1717, about cleven years of age.
She survived General Wither about fourteen years, her dau. Dorothy Bonham administering to
her estate 8 May 1732, when she was described as of Old Alresford, Hauts.
He son of William Genew, of the Inner Temple, Esq., by his wife Mary, dau. of William
Gladwin of St. Paul's, Covent Garden, Citizen and Girdler of London. He was born 24 Apl., and
baptized at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, 9 May 1676. He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ
Church, 14 Dec. 1695, but appears to have taken no degree. He was Sheriff of Surrey in 1711,
and his will, dated 23 Oct. 1729, was proved 15 Mch. 1731-2. She his cousin, dau. of his father's
brother, John Genew, Esq., by Rachel, dau. of Sir Thomas Cambell first Bart. of Clay Hall,
Essex, who were married at St. Martin in the Fields 9 Jan. 1667-8. Her will, dated 12 June
1736, was proved 26 Apl. 1738. They were buried at Petersham, Surrey.
5 Mar. Lic. Fac. 1 July, 1702, for Robert Swann, of Newton, co. Cambridge, bachelor, aged
30, and Anne Needham, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, spinster, aged 23 and upwards. He is
elsewhere called of Sawston, co. Cambridge, Gent., and was living in 1706. See her baptism 21
Jan. 1672-3, and burials of her parents 13 Feb. 1705-6 and 7 Apl. 1708. She proved her mother's

Thomas Widdrington, of Sherburne Grange, co. Northumberland, Kt. She died 20 Aug. 1737,
aged 64, and was buried at Walthamstow.
4 Wardell Andrews matriculated at Oxford, from University College, 9 June 1697, aged 15,
as son of George Andrews, Esq., of Barbadocs (who was son of Jonathan Andrews, of Barnes Hall,
co. Worcester, Esq.). The will of Wardell Andrews, of the parish of St. Joseph in the Island of
Barbadoes, Esq., dated 8 April 1714, was proved in England 5 Mch. 1728-9. From one of the
documents attached to it he appears to have died before 9 Oct. 1714. The wife mentioned in the
text probably died in Barbadoes, as the will calls his then wife Thomazine, and her maiden
name was evidently Thornhill. He left an only son William, in case of whose death before his
majority his entire estate in England was to go to his cousin, William Andrews, of Barnes Hall
aforesaid, Gent. His mother was Lucretia, dau. of Thomas Wardell, of London, Merchant.
5 He son and heir of Thomas Chowne of Alfriston, co. Sussex, Esq., by his wife Elizabeth
Foice, of Shipley, in the same county (who were married at Shipley 19 May 1669), and was
baptized at Alfriston 22 Apl. 1679. He died the 16th and was buried at Alfriston 24 Sep. 1724.
She youngest dau. and coheir of William Westbrook, of Ferring, co. Sussex, Esq., by Elizabeth,
dau. of Thomas Houghton of Mayfield, in the same county, Esq. The Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen., dated
26 June 1703, gives her age as above 21, and states that her parents were dead. She died the
17th and was buried at Alfriston 21 Dec. 1713. The baptisms and burials of some of their
children occur in the registers of St. Margaret's, Westminster.
6 He only son of Sir Thomas Mompesson, of Bathampton, co. Wilts, Kt., by his second wife,
Barbara, dau. of John Waterer, of co. Midx., Esq. He was baptized at St. Martin in the Fields
27 Jan. 1671-2, but born, according to the parish register, "26 Jan. 1670." He was M.P. for
Wilton and Old Sarum in several Parliaments. His will, dated 17 Aug. 1713, was proved 12 Aug.
1714. He died 12 July in the latter year, and was buried with his parents in Salisbury Cathedral.
She second and youngest dau. of William Longueville, Esq. (sce his burial 30 Mch. 1721), by
Elizabeth, dau. of Sir Thomas Peyton, second Bart. of Knowlton (see her burial 21 Jan. 1715-6).

a time the rectory of St. Brelade, Jersey, but became Chaplain to the Royal regiment of Scotch
Guards, and attended them through the campaigns in Flanders, 1691-7, a History of which he

and in the military service, but is better known as having been successively Governor of New
York and New England. (In the latter office he became extremely odious to the colonists, and
his name was handed down to the latest American generations as almost synonymous with
infamy. A recent American writer, William H. Whitmore, Esq., of Boston, in an admirable

was also buried there 12 Feb. 1716-7. In his will, dated 19 July 1712 and proved 8 Mch. 1713-4,
he bequeathed her a life annuity of £100, but she appears to have left no will, and no estate
sufficient to call for letters of administration.

A MS. note in a copy of Camden's Annals in the Bodleian Library says that this son was
born 18 Mch. He probably died young, as he is not named in the family wills some years later.
The name is rightly Tounson.
1 Son of Sir Edward Villiers, Kt. (half-brother of George, first Duke of Buckingham), by
Barbara, eldest dau. of Sir John St. John (see her burial 16 Sep. 1672). He probably died
young, as his name has not been retained in the accounts of the family. A MS. note in a copy
of Camden's Annals in the Bodleian Library says that he was born 18 Mch., and that the
sponsors at his baptism were Christopher Villiers, John Wentworth, and the Lady Butler.
2 Mar. Lic. Bp. Lond. 13 July 1613, for John Packer. of St. Martin in the Fields, Gent.,
bachelor, aged 41, and Phillipp Mills, of the city of Westminster, Gentlewoman, aged 23. dau.
of Francis Mills, of Southampton, Esq., and with his consent: to marry at St. Catherine Crce
Church. He was born at Twickenham, Midx., about 1572, and appears to have been in public
employments, at one time in the Signet Office, and of considerable social distinction. A letter
of his, dated 17 Jan. 1610, addressed to Sir Thomas Edmonds, Ambassador at the Court of
Brussels, will be found in the "Court and Times of James I.," 1818, i. 104, and Camden, in his
Annals, states that the Marquis of Buckingham, Baron Haye, and the Countess of Dorset were
sponsors at the baptism of one of his children, in Westminster church, 24 June 1618. It is
probable that he acted as secretary to George Villiers, first Duke of Buckingham. He was
buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 15 Feb. 1618-9. His will, dated 20 July 1645, with a
codicil 2 May 1648, was proved 27 Nov. 1649, by his relict Phillippa. He described himself as
of Shellingford, co. Berks, Esq., but residing in a house within the College of Westminster, and
stated that his lands had been sequestered by the King's forces, except the manor of Groom-
bridge (in Speldhurst), Kent, where he had built a chapel, and which he bequeathed to one of
his sons, who still held it in 1696. This daughter is not mentioned in his will, and probably died
young. See the baptisms of other children, 11 Mch. 1623-4, 13 May 1626, and 13 Aug. 1627, and
of a grandchild, 22 Apl. 1645.

Holborn, 17 Nov. 1644, bis father being then also dead. The mother was living 5 Feb. 1647-8,
when she administered to her father's estate. The St. Andrew's register also states that a dau.,
Elizabeth, was born 20 Apl., and baptized in the Abbey 1 May 1636; but no record of it occurs
in the Abbey Register: she was also buried at St. Andrew's, Holborn, 26 Jan. 1636-7. Another
son, Richard, born 20 Nov. and baptized 2 Dec. 1639, and another dau., Elizabeth, born 7th and
baptized 21 Aug. 1641, both in the Great Almonry, were probably also baptized in the Abbey,
but no record occurs of either. Other children of Mr. Try were born and baptized at Kentish
Town, Midx.
5 Her mother was Katherine, dau. of John Packer (see her baptism 11 Mch. 1623-4). She
was eldest dau., and married William Eyre, of Highlow, co. Derby, Esq. Their second son, John,
assumed the surname of Gell, through whom they were ancestors of the celebrated classical
antiquary, Sir William Gell. Her husband was buried at Hathersage, co. Derby, 9 Aug. 1706,
and she died at Derby 28 Feb. 1721-2.
6 Dau. of Henry Purcell, Gent. of the King's Chapel (see his burial 13 Aug. 1664), by his
wife Elizabeth, who was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 26 Aug. 1699, and sister of
Henry Purcell, the cminent composer (scc his burial 26 Nov. 1695). She married (Mar. Lic. Vic.
Gen. 20 June 1691) the Rev. William Sale, of Sheldwich, Kent, and was her mother's ad-
ministratrix, 7 Sep. 1699.

minster (see his burial 13 July 1672). It is probable that the severe notions of the latter would
not allow him to recognize the validity of a prior baptism in New England, and hence the re-
performance of the ceremony here. (See the baptisms of his sisters, under similar circumstances,
10 Apl. 1669, and note thereto). He returned to New England, where he was living in 1681, .
and was the ancestor of the present American family of this name.
¹ He was elected from St. Peter's College, Westminster, to Trinity College, Cambridge, in
1664. Among the marriage allegations in the Registry of the Bishop of London is the copy of a
certificate, dated at Cadiz, 12 Nov. 1671, stating that on that day a couple were married on
board H.M. Ship Rupert, by Duel Pead, chaplain of that ship, ordained by the Bishop of
Lincoln. Among the entries in the Camden Society's volume cntitled "Secret Services of
Chas. II. and James II.," sub 14 June 1683, is the payment of £20 to Duell Pead, Clerk, "bounty
to him for the charge of his transportation to Maryland." He appears to have been afterwards
Chaplain to the Duke of Newcastle, and, on 5 Dec. 1691, he was licensed as Curate or
Minister of St. James, Clerkenwell. His name occurs frequently, from 1699 to 1703, signed to
marriage allegations in the Bishop of London's Registry concerning parties who were to marry
in that church, his signature being sometimes" Duel Pcad," and sometimes" Deuel Pead," and
indifferently "curate and "minister." On 13 Jan. 1678-9, he himself had a license from
the Vicar General to marry Mary Dyett, of St. Botolph, Aldgate, widow, and, on the following
24 Dec., another to marry Elizabeth Mudd, of St. Gabriel Fenchurch, widow; but it appears
doubtful whether either license was carried into effect, as by his will, dated 17 Feb. 1711-12, his
wife's name was Sarah, and he then had a dau. Sarah, already married to the Rev. Charles Lec,
Rector of Bishop's Wickham, co. Essex. In the will, and also in the codicil, dated 15 Nov. 1721,
he mentions a son Deuel, doubtless the one who was A.M. of Sidney College, Cambridge, in 1712.
The will was proved by the relict Sarah, 12 Jan. 1725-6, on which day he is said by the papers of
the period to have died, and the parish register of St. James, Clerkenwell, records his burial on
the 20th of that month. Her will, dated 4 Oct, 1727, was proved 14 Jan. 1739-40, by her son,
the Rev. Deuel Pead.

re-baptized for the same reason there stated. See their father's burial 3 Nov. 1668.
His will,
made before he left New England, states that he intended to bring them with him
to England, and describes them as his two youngest daughters. It will be noticed
that this re-baptism did not take place until some months after his death. They were
residing with their uncle, Rev. Herbert Thorndike, Probendary of Westminster (sec his
burial 13 July 1672), until his death, and he made a considerable provision for them in his will,
on condition that they should neither return to New England, nor marry with any that goes
to mass or any of the new licensed conventicles," and the payment of a portion was dependant
upon their marrying, or willingness to marry, "such as sincerely cleave to the Church of
England." As no subsequent trace of them has ever been discovered in New England, it is
probable that they accepted one of the latter contingencies, and retained their bequests.

³ Rev. William Sill, A.M. of Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1662. was collated a Prebendary
of Carlisle 27 March 1668. He subsequently became Chaplain to the Bishop of London, who
gave him the Prebend of Neasdon 10 July 1678, which he appears to have exchanged for that
of St. Pancras 24 Sept. following, on which day he was also installed Archdeacon of Col-
chester. Both of these preferments he appears to have subsequently resigned, his successors,
Dr. Sherlock in the prebend and Dr. Beveridge in the archdeaconry, being appointed on the
same day, 3 Nov. 1681. The records of his various preferments as given by Newcourt (Reper-
torium, i., 93, 186, 197, 288, 922), and perpetuated by Le Neve (see Hardy's edition of the Fasti,
iii. 362), are most confusing, and, if all were correct, could only be reconciled by the assumption
that two of the same name were collated to London prebends in the same year. In both
instances it is said that the successions to the prebend and archdeaconry were "per mort. Sill”;
but this was clearly an error of Newcourt's, for the editor has examined the original records in
the Bishop's Registry, and they both simply but distinctly say that the offices were lawfully
vacant. He was instituted to the rectory of St. Augustine, with St. Faith, London, Nov.
1680, and was installed a Prebendary of Westminster 22 Oct. 1681, and held both of these prefer-
ments until his death. His will, dated 16 May, was proved 7 July 1687, and he was buried in
the church of St. Augustine in June of that year. In his will he commended his wife and
children to his brother, Mr. Toby Sill. In his marriage license (Faculty Office), dated 3 Feb.
1682-3, he is described as Rector of St. Augustine, a bachelor. aged about 15, and his wife as
Anne Smith, of Hildersham, co. Cambridge, spinste aged about 30. This child was living at
the date of his will. See the baptism of another s Dec. 1686, and his burial 20 Dec. 1688.
Rev. Samuel de L'Angle (whose real surnam vas De Baux), 'was son of Jean-Maximilien
De Baux, Seigneur de L'Angle, senior pastor of the Reformed Church at Rouen, by Marie, dau.
of René Bochart, Sieur de Ménillet, and sister of he learned Samuel Bochart. He was M.A. in
France, and had preached for thirty-five years in the reformed churches at Rouen and Charenton
before taking refuge in England from the religious persecutions of the period. He was created
D.D. at Oxford 12 Feb. 1682-3, and installed Prebendary of Westminster 13 Oct. following. He
appears also to have held the living of Steventon, Berks. He died the 17th, and was buried at
St. Margaret's, Westminster, 21 June 1693, aged about 71. His will, signed 13 June, was proved
3 July in that year. See his wife's burial 13 Dec. 1687. This son Thomas was living at the
date of his father's will. (See a burial 2 Dec. 1687.)
5 See his sister's baptism 31 Mch. 1678, and note thereto.-Henry Sylvester is mentioned as
one of the ten children of the Chapel Royal (Chamberlayne's Anglia Notitia, edit. 1704).
6 Edmond Giffard, fourth son of the Rev. Richard Giffard, rector of Gayton, co. Northampton,
by his wife Anne Christopherson, of the Isle of Ely, is described in the Heralds' Visitation of
Northamptonshire as a Gunsmith in London, now living, 26 July 1682," and as then married.
There can be little doubt of his being the father of the child baptized.

2 The father was Rev. George Carleton, Chanter of the Abbey, which appointment he received
4 Sep. 1728. He was sworn a Gent. of the Chapel Royal 8 Aug. 1715, and Sub-dean thereof 16
Aug. 1732. He was of St. John's College, Cambridge, where A.B. 1704, and A.M. 1708. He died
15 Dec. 1746. The mother was his second wife. (Mar. Lic. Fac. 26 Oct. 1717, for George Carleton,
of St. Bride's, London, widower, aged upwards of 30, and Elizabeth Dillingham, of Hampton,
Midx., spinster, aged 19 and upwards, with consent of her mother, Elizabeth Dillingham.) Sir
John Hawkins (History of Music, v. 406) says that her sister married Dr. Greene, Organist and
Composer to the Royal Chapel, and that they had together kept a milliner's shop in Paternoster
Row, and were cousins of the wife of Mr. Charles King, Almoner of St. Paul's, who was a sister
of Jerry Clark. From the names given to their children, however, it may be rather conjectured
that they were immediately connected with the family of Dr. Theophilus Dillingham, Arch-
deacon of Bedford, whose son and grandson, both named Theophilus, were buried at Hampton,
where the mother and daughter, according to the license, were both living at the time of
this marriage. Theophilus Carleton, the second child of the marriage, was baptized at St.
Bride's, 13 Dec. 1719. See the burials of other children, 26 Dec. 1728, 24 Mch. 1729-30, 10 Mch.

The father was of Lydney, co. Gloucester, third son of Sir Benjamin Bathurst, Kt., by
Frances, dau. of Sir Allen Apsley, Kt., and younger brother of Allen, first Earl Bathurst. The
mother was his second wife, to whom married early in the same year. She was only surviving
dau. of Dr. Lawrence Brodrick, Prebendary of Westminster, and Anne his wife (see her brother's
baptism 19 Nov. 1710, and note thercto). By his two wives Mr. Bathurst had thirty-six children.
He died 5 Nov. 1767. His widow died about 1794, and was buried at Mixbury, co.
Oxford. This daughter married William Prowett, of Adderbury, co. Oxford, Esq.. and was
mother of Rev. John Prowett, Rector of Catefield, co. Norfolk. and Great T-
Essex.
See her brother's baptism, immediately following her own.
5 See the preceding entry and note.-From the imperfect dates given in the text it is
probable that the record was made some time after his baptism. A recorded pedigree, how-
ever, in the College of Arms, states that he was the second child and eldest son, by Mr.
Bathurst's second marriage, and that he was born in 1743. He was in the army, and died with-
out issue.

finally a Verger and Sacrist for 32 years, under five successive Deans. He married, at
Carshalton, Surrey, 25 Oct. 1785, Sarah Frances Fairchild, described as of St. Margaret's,

Burials in Westminster Abbey.
[There are two distinct sets of Burials recorded in the Registers, from the commence-
ment down to the end of the year 1812, after which the entries are made in-
discriminately. The first set is thus prefaced: "BURIALLS IN THE COLLEGIATE
CHURCH OF ST. PETER'S, WESTMINSTER, AND THE CHAPPELLS THEREOF."
The other is headed simply "BURIALS IN THE CLOISTERS." For greater
convenience, both sets are here incorporated in one unbroken chronological
arrangement.]

John Winterborne, Verger: 2 [Cloisters].
Mary, the daughter of King James: in King Henry 7th's
Chapel.
¹ Anne, dau. of Sir Thomas Morgan, of Arkeston, co. Hereford, Kt., by Anne, dau. of John
Whitney, of Whitney, co. Gloucester. She was the relict of Sir Henry Carey, K.G., first Lord
Hunsdon, who died 23 July 1596, and was also buried in the Abbey. Her will, dated the 10th,
was proved 22 Jan. 1606-7.
2 He had a joint patent as l'orter of the Lower Gate 4 Dec. 1598, and a patent as Verger 4
Dec. 1599 (Chapter Book). Dean Goodman mentioned him in his will, dated 2 Mch. 1600-1, as
one of his nearest and most faithful servants. He married (Mar. Lic. D. and C. Westminster
8 Feb. 1593-4) Elizabeth Lodge, of Westminster, widow, whose maiden name, from his will,
appears to have been Wilson. (She survived him, and remarried, at St. Margaret's, Westminster,
16 June 1608, Hearsey Normanvill, of St. Clement Danes, Gent.) His will, dated 26 Aug. 1606,
was proved, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 1 Dec. 1607, and its contents indicate that
he was a Yorkshireman. (See the burials of John and Richard Blackborne, 8 Jan. 1608-9 and
28 May 1610, who were his nephews.)
3 Third dau. and sixth child of King James I. (see his burial 5 May 1625) by Anne of
Denmark, dau. of King Frederick II. (see her burial 13 May 1619). There is an undoubted
error in the date here given, and strangely perpetuated on this child's monument in the Abbey,
which it is highly important to rectify. The inscription on the monument states that she died
on this day, aged 2 years 5 months and 8 days. If this were so, her birth must have taken place
on or about the 8th of July 1605. All the accounts, however, including contemporaneous MSS.,
state that she was born, at Greenwich, on the 8th or 9th of April in that year, and it seems im-
possible that a discrepancy of three months could have arisen concerning a royal birth. On the
other hand, if the age as stated on the monument be correct, she should have died on or about
the 16th or 17th of September 1607, and the sixteenth of September is the date given by Camden
in his Annals as that of her death; which is even more strictly in accordance with the monu-
mental statement, as, in a MS. in the Bodleian Library (Smith, 103, p. 39), the time of her birth
is given as about four o'clock in the morning, and she would thus have lived 2 years and 5

months, and at least have entered upon the eighth day of the next month. Howes, also, in his
continuation of "Stow's Chronicle," gives the 16th of September as the date of her death, aud
the 23rd of the same month as that of her burial. This testimony may be safely accepted; but
there is also moral evidence equally as strong. On examining the histories, and especially the
correspondence of that period, it will be found that during the Christmas holidays of 1607 the
court presented a scene of unusual gaiety. Masques, and theatricals, and gambling were the
order of the day-the King being very anxious to have a play on Christmas night, and the Queen
losing £400 at cards on Twelfth Eve. Whatever may have been the vices of that court, and the
morality of the period, it is simply impossible-if for no other reasons than those of court
etiquette, but, it is to be hoped, for far better ones-that these things could have taken place, if
the royal child had been dead and buried only nine days, or, as would have been more probable,
as'
was then lying a corpse in the palace. As the entry in the Register and the inscription on the
monument now stand, any future historian would be justified in pointing to the apparent facts.
as an evidence of the gross and outrageous immorality, and even inhumanity, of the royal
parents, the court by which they were upheld, and the nation by which they were tolerated, and
it is somewhat extraordinary that the manifest error has not before been detected and exposed.
There can be little doubt that the transcriber of the old register misread December for Sep-
tember, and that the present inscription on the monument was cut after the new register was in
use, and the date taken therefrom.
¹ Son of Sir John Kennedy, of Scotland, Kt., by Elizabeth, eldest dau. and coheir of Giles
Brydges third Lord Chandos, who are usually said to have had no issue. (Lady Kennedy subse-
quently disputed the validity of her own marriage. l'articulars of the case will be found in
a small volume printed in 1681, entitled The Connection; or, Choice Collections of Matters
in the Reign of K. Jumes.)
2 Son of Christopher Blackborne, of Sharnford, co. Leicester, by Isabel, sister of John
Winterborne (see his burial 23 Nov. 1607). He had a joint patent with his uncle Winterborne
of the portership of the lower gate, 4 Dec. 1598, and a patent as one of the butlers of the
College, 3 Dec. 1607 (Chapter Book). He is mentioned in Dean Goodman's will, dated 2 Mch.
1600-1, as one of his nearest and most faithful servants. He was married at St. Margaret's,
Westminster, 6 Apl. 1600, to Alice Phillips, but outlived her, and married again, as his nuncu-
pative will, made 1 Jan. 1608-9, was proved, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, on the 20th
of the same month, by his relict Gertrude. See his brother's burial 28 May 1610.
3 Dau. of William Stanley, sixth Earl of Derby, by Lady Elizabeth de Verc, eldest dau. of
Edward, seventeenth Earl of Oxford (see her burial 11 Mch. 1626-7). She died young.
4 His will, in which he is described as of Westminster, Yeoman, dated the 14th, was proved,
in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 22 June 1609. It mentions his sister Ellen, and her dau.
Anne, then wife of Nicholas Love; also his nephews and niece, Hugh, Thomas, Robert, and
Frances Suttle (brothers and sister), and his cousins, Anne and Elizabeth Purkasc (sisters), and
Anne and Mary Ramsay (sisters). He does not appear, from the records, to have held any
position about the Abbey, but he left legacies to several of the minor officials on condition that
they were permitted to bury him in the Cloisters.
5 Second son of Geoffrey de Vere (third son of John, fifteenth Earl of Oxford), by Elizabeth,
dau. of Sir John Hardkyn, of Colchester, Essex, Kt. He was knighted in 1588, and was some-
time Governor of the British Forces in the Netherlands. According to the inscription on his
monument, he died on the 28th Aug., æt. 51. His widow administered to his estate on the 30th
Aug., and in the record he is described as "late Captain of the town of Portsmouth, co. South-
ampton." By his wife, Elizabeth Dent, dau. and coheir of a citizen of London, he had several
children, who all died in his lifetime. Sec his brother's burial 8 May 1635.

¹ Sir Edward Zouch, knighted at Whitehall 23 July 1603. was Knight Marshal of England
in the reign of K. James I. The only wife hitherto assigned him was Elizabeth, dau. of Henry
Middlemore, of Enfield, Midx., and sister of Mary Middlemore (see her burial 4 Jan. 1617-18).
But be appears to have previously married. Among the marriage licenses granted by the
Dean and Chapter of Westminster is one, dated 20 Dec. 1598, for Edward Zouche, of West-
minster, Esq., and Elenor Brittayne, of the same parish, dau. of [blank] Brittayne, late of
Cockingham, co. Norfolk, Esq., deceased, and they were married at St. Margaret's, Westminster,
the following day. This was probably the lady named in the text.
2 Among the records of the Dean and Chapter is the probate of the will of Thomas
Middleton, late of Westminster, Gent., dated 30 Apl. 1610, but the will itself is missing. The
executors named were Lancelot Peacock and Francis Middleton.-A Thomas Middleton matricu-
lated at Oxford, from Queen's College, Apl. 1598, aged 18, " Pleb. fil.," London.-One of this sur-
name (whose Christian name has not been preserved) was Second Master of Westminster School
from 1593 to 1610, and it is not improbable that this entry refers to him.
3 See his brother's burial 8 Jan. 1608-9, and note thereto. He had also a patent as bell-
ringer 15 May 1609. The probate of his will is among the Chapter records, the executors being
Henry Blackborne and William Cooke, but the will itself is missing.
4 Rightly Agard. The date in the text is probably incorrect. The inscription on the tablet
to her memory and that of her husband, still on the wall of the East Cloister, has evidently been
more than once recut, and is calculated only to mislead. It now states that she died Sept. 1610,
in her 82nd year; that he was then living in his 71st; that he erected the tablet 14 Apl. 1611; and
that he died in 1619, in his 80th year. But it is certain that he died in 1615 (see his burial 24
Aug. in that year), and it is probable that his age at his death, as stated in the inscription, was
obtained by adding the difference between 1610 and 1619 to his age as stated at his wife's death.
It
may also be doubted that his wife was eleven years his senior, and is more probable that she
died in her 62nd, instead of her 82nd year. The earliest copy of the inscription to be found is in
Keep's Monumenta Westmonasteriensia, 1682. It was then evidently almost illegible, but the
year of her death is given as 1610, which is probably correct, and accords with the statement
that the tablet was put up in Apl. 1611. In a pedigree at the end of the Visitation of Stafford-
hire, 1583, among the Gough MSS. in the Bodleian Library, she is called a daughter of George
Butler, of Bedfordshire.
5 He had a patent as Clerk of the Kitchen 28 Apl. 1589. He is mentioned in Dean
Goodman's will, dated 2 Mch. 1600-1, as one of his nearest and most faithful servants. His will
was proved 28 Oct. 1612, by his relict Margaret, but is not to be found. His widow remarried
(Mar. Lic. D. and C. Westminster, 8 Jan. 1612-13) John Dyer, of St. Margaret's, Westminster,
Gent. See the burial of his son 30 July 1624.
6 Henry-Frederick, cldest child of King James I. (see his burial 5 May 1625) by Anne of
Denmark, dau. of King Frederick II. (see her burial 13 May 1619). He was born at Stirling 19
Feb. 1593-4, and was created Prince of Wales 4 June 1610. He died at St. James's Palace, and
was buried under the monument of his grandmother, Mary Queen of Scots, whose remains had
been brought from Scotland the previous month.
7 Administration was granted by the Court of the Commissary of the Bishop of London, 20
Mch. 1612-13, to Agnes, relict of James Walker, of St. Andrew's, Holborn.

[Alphington], co. Devon, Gent., dated 10 Sept. 1611, was proved 31 July 1613 by his son Joseph.
He directed to be buried in Exeter Cathedral, wherein he was brought up in his childhood, and
left £5 to the gentlemen his fellows and friends of H.M.'s Chapel, whereof he had long been a
member. In his monumental inscription (preserved only in Le Neve's Mon. Ang.. i. 39) he is said
to have been a Gent. of the Royal Chapel seventy years, and to have died 3 July 1613, aged
96. The Cheque Book says that he died 2 July, "of the age of 97 years." and describes him as
"gospeller." See his son's burial 6 June 1617.
¹ Dean Goodman, in his will dated 2 Mch. 1600-1, gave him twenty shillings, as one of his
nearest and most faithful servants.
2 Dr. Isaac Casaubon, the eminent scholar: son of Arnold Casaubon by his wife Jane (or
Johanna) née Rousseau, and born 18 Feb. 1559-60, at Geneva. He came to England in Oct. 1610,
and on the 17th Jan. following was made a Prebendary of Canterbury. He is usually said to
have been also a Prebendary of Westminster, but no record of his appointment or installation
appears in the Chapter Books. His will, dated 21 June, was proved 30 July 1614 by his relict
(see her burial 11 Mch. 1635-6). The date in the text is probably that of his burial, as he is usually
said to have died on the 1st of July, which is also the date on his monument. Camden, however,
in his Annals, says that he died on the 30th of June.
3 Lady Lucy Cecil, second but eldest surviving dau. of Thomas, first Earl of Exeter (see his
burial 10 Feb. 1622-3), by his first wife, Dorothy Nevill, second dau. and coheir of John, fourth
Lord Latimer, and wife of William Paulet, fourth Marquis of Winchester (who died 4 Feb. 1628-9).
Camden, in his Annals, says that she died the 1st of October. Her will, dated 3 Sep., was proved
12 Nov. 1614.
4 Relict of William Boughton, of Lawford, co. Warwick, Esq., who died about 1596. She
was dau. of Humphrey Coningsby, of Hampton Court, co. Hereford, Esq., Gent. Pensioner to
Q. Elizabeth, by Ann, dau. of Sir Thomas Englefield, Kt. Their grandson, William Boughton,
Esq., was created a Baronet 4 Aug. 1641. See the burial of her dau., Mrs. Ann Fleet, 1 Sep. 1658.
5 Rightly Birkhead. A bequest in Dean Goodman's will, dated 2 Mch. 1600-1, reads thus :
"To Gabriel Birkhead, my godson, who hath served me ever since he was a scholar, £8:6 : 8."
His will, which is now missing, was proved, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 13 Jan.
1614-15, by his relict Frances (see her burial, as Frances Bush, 9 Sep. 1641). He was probably
son and grandson of the persons named in the following inscription on an old monument in the
Cloisters, not now in existence, preserved by Camden in his Reges, Reginæ, etc., edit. 1606, p. 81,
viz.:—“Heere vnder lieth Anne Birkhed, being 102 ycercs of age, who departed this life the 25
of August, Ann. Dom. 1568. And Christopher Birkhed her Sonne, being 77 ycercs of age, who
departed this life the 20 of May, being Ascention day, an. do. 1595."-Christopher Byrkhed and
Kath. Banyster were married at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 17 Oct. 1569.
6 Letters of administration were granted, by the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 3 May 1615,
on the estate of David Roberts, late of Westminster, Gent.. to Rice Williams, his uncle by the
mother's side, who is frequently mentioned in wills of this period as Clerk of the Kitchen, i.e.
to the College.

Dormer 30 June 1615. The entry is misplaced in the Register (probably in transcribing),
coming after that of Francis Beaumont, 9 Mch. 1615-6. She died 23 Mch. 1614-5, according to
her monument, and was buried, according to Camden's Annals, 25 Mch. 1615. Her will, dated
26 Aug. 1609, was proved 22 May 1615, by her only child, Lady Anne Howard (see her burial 8
June 1638).

¹ Dau. of Thomas Henshaw, Citizen and Merchant Taylor of London (called in one pedigree
'Silkman, and servant to K. James "), who died 11 Jan. 1611-12, by Flower his wife, dau. of
John Goldsborough, of Yorkshire (Visitation of Essex, 1634, and Funeral Certificate, I. 16, 337,
in Coll. Arm.). Her husband was probably the Sir John Bingley (knighted 10 Jan. 1617-8),
Remembrancer in the Exchequer, who was convicted in the Court of Star Chamber of extortion
in office, and imprisoned with the Earl of Suffolk, Lord High Treasurer (Carte, iv. 47, 48).
2 Arthur Agard, one of the Deputy Chamberlains of the Exchequer for 45 years, and one of
the first and most active members of the Society of Antiquaries. He was son of Clement Agard,
of Foston, co. Derby, by Eleanor, dau. of Thomas Middleborough (as is usually said, but a pedi-
gree in one of the Gough MSS. in the Bodleian Library says Elizabeth, dau. of Thomas Middle-
more) of Edgbaston, co. Warwick, and was born at Foston in 1540. His monument, as recut,
makes him die in 1619, in his 80th year; but his will, dated 16 Jan. 1614-5, and sealed and
delivered 22 Aug. 1615 (the day, according to Camden's Annals, of his death), was proved 28
Aug. 1615, by his nephew William Agard. See his wife's burial 6 Sep. 1611, and note thereto.
3 The unfortunate Lady Arbella Stuart, dau. of Charles, fifth Earl of Lennox, by Elizabeth,
dau. of Sir William Cavendish. She was born about 1577, and married in 1610. The date in
the text is always given as that of her death, which took place in the Tower of London. Camden,
in his Annals, says that she was buried in the same crypt with Mary, Queen of Scots, and Henry,
Prince of Wales. Her husband (not herself, as in the text) was grandchild of Edward Seymour,
first Earl of Hertford, to which title he succeeded in 1621, and was restored to the Dukedom of
Somerset shortly before his death in 1660. Her Christian name is given in the Register as she
invariably wrote it, although it is usually but erroneously spelled Arabella.
4 Francis Beaumont, the dramatic writer, third and youngest son of Sir Francis Beaumont,
of Grace Dieu, co. Leicester, Kt., one of the Judges of the Common Pleas, by Anne, dau. of Sir
George Pierrepoint, of Holme Pierrepoint, co. Notts, and relict of Thomas Thorold, of Marston,
co. Lincoln, Esq. The date in the text is usually given as that of his death, which occurred in
his 30th year. By his wife Ursula, dau. and coheir of Henry Isley, of Sundridge, Kent, he left
two daughters. He left no will, but his relict administered to his estate 26 June 1619. See his
brother's burial 19 Apl. 1627.
5 There is an error of a year in the date. His will, dated 20 Mch. 1616-7, was proved 11 Apl.
1617, in which he is called "Yeoman, servant to the Dean and Chapter of the Collegiate Church
of St. Peter of Westminster." He left his lands, etc., in Toft and Hardwick, co. Cambridge, to
his brother Nicholas May, of Eversden, in the same county, with remainder to his son John. He
also left legacies to the children of his deceased sister Elizabeth, wife of Richard Newman.
6 Twin sons of Archibald Campbell, seventh Earl of Argyll, by his second wife, Anne, dau.
of Sir William Cornwallis, of Brome, co. Suffolk, to whom married 30 Nov. 1610. They were
baptized in Somerset House 31 Dec. 1615, but are not mentioned in the Peerages. (See Letters
of George Lord Carew, Camden Soc., 1859, p. 21.)

also buried in the Abbey), by Anne, dau. of Sir William Reade, of Boarstall, Bucks, and relict,
first of Sir Giles Greville, and secondly of Sir Adrian Fortescue. He was of Hampstead Marshall,
Berks, of which county he was Sheriff 1576 and 1588. and Deputy Lieutenant 1596, and was
M.P. for St. Alban's 1603. He was also Ambassador to France. In 1607 he became Chancellor
of the Duchy of Lancaster and Master of the Court of Wards, but was suspended from the
Chancellorship and ejected from Parliament in 1614, for some parliamentary offence. He died,
without issue, in the parish of St. Mary, Savoy, on the day preceding his burial. as is usually
said, but in one of the letters of George Lord Carew (Camden Soc., 1859, p. 34), he is mentioned
as dead, under the date of 24 May. His wife Dorothy survived him until 1624, when she was
buried at Welford, Berks.
2 Eldest son of Herman Bilson (grandson of Arnold Bilson, whose wife is said to have been
a dau. of the Duke of Bavaria), and born in the city of Winchester. He went from Winchester
School to New College, Oxford, where B.A. 10 Oct. 1566, M.A. 25 Apl. 1570, B.D. 24 June 1579,
and D.D. 24 Jan. 1580-1. He was installed a Prebendary of Winchester 12 Jan. 1576, consecrated
Bishop of Worcester 13 June 1596, and translated to Winchester 13 May 1597. He is always
said to have died on the day stated in the text as that of his burial. His age, according to the
inscription on his monument, was 69. Letters of administration were granted to his relict Anne
on the 25th of the same month. See the baptism of his grandson 5 Dec. 1616.
3 In a will of the period he is also called "one of the four master bell-ringers." Dean
Goodman, in his will dated 2 Mch. 1600-1, mentioned him as one of his nearest and most
faithful servants."
4 The Editor has had no hesitation in correcting a manifest error in the Abbey Register,
where this entry stands under the year 1626. The transcriber was probably misled by the zigzag
form of the figure 1 usually found in MSS. of that period. There is no difficulty in identifying
the person here named as Richard Hackluit (or Hakluyt, as he always signed his name), the
famous collector of voyages and discoveries. He was the second son of his parents, who both
died during the infancy of his younger brother Edmond, probably about 1560, and is supposed to
have been born in or near London about 1553. He was elected from Westminster School to
Oxford in 1570, where B.A. 1573. In at least one official document he is styled D.D. He became
a Prebendary of Bristol about 1586, Rector of Wetheringsett, Suffolk, in 1590, and was installed
a Prebendary of Westminster 4 May 1602, becoming, shortly after, Archdeacon of the same. He
signed the records of the Chapter meetings from that date until 3 May 1616, and his successor
was installed 29 Nov. in that year. His will, dated 20 Aug. 1612, was proved 23 Nov.
1616, the same day that is given by Camden and others as that of his death. He was twice
married, and his only child, a son Edmond, who was his executor, was by his first wife, whose
name has not been ascertained and who died about 1597. His second wife, Frances, who was
living at the date of his will, is described in the Mar. Lic. Bp. Lond., dated 30 Mch. 1604, as then
of St. Lawrence-Jewry, London, widow of William Smithe, of St. Botolph, Bishopsgate, London,
Gent. (who had been dead about eight months), and aged about 50. In the same license
Mr. Hakluyt is described as one of the Chaplains of the Savoy, aged about 52, and as having
been a widower about seven years.
5 Letters of administration were granted, 7 Feb. 1616-17, on the estate of Lewis Pronde, late
of St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., to his son Thomas Prowde.
His will was proved, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 11 Apl. 1617, but only the

3 The author of A Defence of the Liturgy of the Church of England, which was not pub-
lished until thirteen years after his death. He was A.M. of Trinity Coll., Cambridge, and was
instituted to the rectory of Holy Trinity, Colchester, Essex, 19 Apl. 1610. He is said to have
also been a tutor in the family of Dr. Gabriel Grant, Prebendary of Westminster, who adminis-
tered to his estate, as a creditor, 11 Dec. 1617. He appears, from the dedication in the volume
mentioned, to have been brought up in his youth among the Puritans of the period, and to have
been affected with physical blindness during the most or the whole of his life.
* Eldest dau. of Henry Middlemore, of Enfield, Midx., Groom of the Privy Chamber to
Q. Elizabeth, and sister of Robert Middlemore, Equerry to K. James I. She was appointed Maid

dated 2 Mch. 1600-1, mentioned him as one of his nearest and most faithful servants.
He was third son of George, sixth Earl of Shrewsbury, by his first wife, Lady Gertrude
Manners, eldest dau. of Thomas, first Earl of Rutland, and succeeded his brother as eighth Earl,
8 May 1616. He died, according to his monument, on the day before his burial, in his 57th year,

Countess (see her burial 7 Jan. 1625-6).
7 Eldest son of John Ramsay, Earl of Holderness (see his burial 28 Feb. 1625-6), by his first
wife, Lady Elizabeth Ratcliffe (eldest dau. of Robert, fifth Earl of Sussex), who was married
9 Feb. 1607-8 and died 6 Dec. 1618. He was baptized at the Chapel Royal, Whitehall, 11 Mch.
1616-17, the King being one of his sponsors. See also the burials of his brother and sister,
25 Mch. and 14 Sep. 1621.
8 Elizabeth, second dau. of Sir John Spencer, of Althorp, co. Northampton, Kt., by Catherine,

of Ralph, third Baron Eure, who is usually said to have died in 1618, but whose will was proved
8 Apl. 1617. To her Spenser dedicated his "Mother Hubbard's Tale." Letters of administration
were granted on her estate, 20 Mch. 1617-8, to her only child Elizabeth, then wife of Sir Thomas
Berkeley, afterwards wife of Sir Thomas Chamberlaync, Kt., Chief Justice of Chester, etc., who
is often erroneously said, even in the most recent peerages, to have been the second husband of
her mother.

3 Not Reynell, as in Collectanea. A copy of his will, without the date of probate, is
among the records of the Dean and Chapter. He left bequests to his mother and Mr. Strowde,
his father Howell, uncle Hervey, aunt Evelyn and her children, cousin Keightley and his wife,
brother Humphreys, cousin Worsley, etc. His wife, whose name is not given, was his executrix.

issue, in her 28th year.
5 His will, as John Panton, Esq., dated 27 May 1618, was proved 27 Mch. 1619. He be-
queathed his mansion-house at "Brymskis,” lands in Lleweny lately descended to him from his
father, and other lands in the counties of Denbigh and Flint. He left only three young daughters,
viz., Anne, Alathea, and Ellinor, the first of whom appears to have died shortly after him, as she is
not named in her mother's will. The date of his death is given in Camden's Annals as 7 Mch.
See his wife's burial 27 Nov. 1619.
Second dau. of Frederick II., King of Denmark and Norway, by Sophia, dau. of Ulric,
Duke of Mecklenburg. She is usually said to have been born 12 Dec. 1574, but the inscription
on her coffin-plate, exposed in 1718 and copied into one of the Funeral Books of the Abbey, reads
thus:—“ Anne of Denmark, daughter of Frederick II., and Consort of King James I., died at
Hampton Court 4 nonas Martis 1618-9, aged 44 years, 4 months, and 18 days.” If the inscription
was correctly copied, it would fix the date of her birth about the middle of October, instead of
December, 1574. She is usually said to have been married 20 Aug. 1590, but some writers, as
well as contemporaneous MSS., give the year as 1589, and the official “Papers relative to the
marriage,” published by the Bannatyne Club in 1828, seem definitely to determine the ceremony
as having been performed, by proxy, in August of the latter year. It will be seen that the
Register gives the date of her death as 2 Mch.; but contemporaneous MSS., and also Camden's
Annals, say 1 Mch., while the monumental inscription in the latter, said to have been composed
by Camden, repeats the expression above quoted from the coffin-platc, viz., " 4 nonas Mart.," i.e.
4 March. See her husband's burial 5 May 1625.

of the Barons of the Exchequer and a Justice of the Queen's Bench. According to the record of
his admission to Gray's Inn, 1 Nov. 1589, he was born at Abington, co. Northampton. He be-
came eventually heir to the estates of his distant kinsman Lord Chancellor Hatton. He was
sometime of Clay Hall, in Barking, Essex, and afterwards of Kirby, co. Northampton, and was
created a Knight of the Bath at the coronation of K. James I. According to his monument he
died the day before his burial, and his relict administered to his estate the 15th of the same
month. His wife was Alice, eldest dau. of Thomas Fanshawe, of Ware Park, Herts, Esq.,
Remembrancer of the Exchequer to Q. Elizabeth, by his second wife, Joane, third dau. of Thomas
Smith, of Ostenhanger, co. Kent, Esq. She was baptized at Christ Church, London, 24 Dec.
1581, and married, at Barking, Essex, 13 Mch. 1601-2. See the burials of their children 18 Aug.
1624 and 4 July 1670.
1 See her husband's burial 13 Mch. 1618-9. Her will, as Elenor Panton, dated the 24th,
with a codicil 26 Nov., was proved 4 Dec. 1619. She was dau. of Sir William Booth, Kt., by
Elizabeth, dau. of Sir John Warburton of Warburton and Arley, co. Chester, Kt., and sister of
Sir George Booth, first Bart. of Dunham Massey, co. Chester, ancestor of the Earls of Warrington.
In most of the printed accounts of her family she is erroneously called Alice: she mentions her
sister “Alice Booth" in her will, and committed to her the custody of her two surviving children.
2 Fourth dau. of Edward Seymour, first Duke of Somerset (the Protector), beheaded 22 Jan.
1551-2, by his second wife, Anne, dau. of Sir Edward Stanhope, of Sudbury, Suffolk, and of
Rampton, Notts, Kt., who remarried Francis Newdigate, Esq., died 16 Apl. 1587, and was buried
in the Abbey. She was first married, 4 June 1583, to Andrew Rogers, Esq., eldest son of Sir
Richard Rogers, of Brianstone, co. Dorset, Kt., who died in his father's lifetime, and without
issue, 1 Dec. 1601. She remarried, at Long Ditton, Surrey, 22 Sept. 1607 (the marriage is also
recorded in the parish register of Barnes), Sir Henry Peyton, Kt. (son of Thomas Peyton, of Bury
St. Edmunds, Suffolk, Esq., by Lady Cecilia Bourchier, dau. of John, second Earl of Bath), who
was abroad, engaged in the Venetian wars, at the time of her death, and whose will, dated 11 Apl.
1618, was proved 20 Feb. 1623-4, the record whereof states that he died "beyond seas." The
name in the Register is calculated to mislead, as she was really Lady Mary Peyton. In Camden's
Annals, under the same date, her burial is thus noticed: "Maria Scimoura vidua Rogers, uxor
Peiton jam in bello Veneto, soror Edw. Comitis Hertfordiæ, nocturno funere in Ecclesia Colle-
giata Westm: inhumata, magnâ Nobilium catervâ comitante."
3 Son and heir apparent of Francis Manners, sixth Earl of Rutland (who died 17 Dec.
1632), by his second wife, Cecily, dau. of Sir John Tufton (scc her burial 11 Sep. 1653). He
was legally Lord Roos, of Hamlake, by a special provision in the grant of the barony to his
father. He and his only brother Henry died in childhood, and it was alleged from the
effects of sorcery! According to Camden's Annals, he died on the 5th of the same month.
The register of St. Martin in the Fields records his removal from that parish to the Abbey on
the 6th.
4 Letters of administration to his estate were granted, by the Court of the Dean and Chapter,
29 July 1620, to his brother George Marbury, senior, of Marbury, co. Chester, Gent., which con-
nects him with the family of that place. He was probably a son of James Marbury, of Marbury,
Esq., by Elizabeth, dau. of Sir William Venables, of Kinderton, Kt., and apparently held some
position under the Government, or about the Court.
• See her husband's burial 24 Oct. 1641. She was eldest dau. and coheir of John Le Strange,
of Sedgeford, co. Norfolk, Esq. She was married there 18 Apl, 1590, and died 24 July 1620.

¹ The inscription on her monument, not now to be found, described her as Katherine Stopes,
wife of William Neile, mother of seven children, and as dying 24 Aug. It also added that by
her were buried Mr. Roger Parker, a servant to Q. Elizabeth, Dorothy Neile one of her daughters,
and Cibell Clarke her dau. Mildred's daughter. Of the first and last no record occurs in the
Register. See her husband's burial 23 June 1624, and her daughter's 25 July 1622.
2 Probate of his will was granted, by the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 7 Oct. 1620, to his
relict Ellen Prichard alias Roberts, but the will itself is missing. Dean Goodman, in his will
dated 2 Mch. 1600-1, mentioned him as one of his nearest and most faithful servants.
3 His will, as of St. Martin in the Fields, Gent., dated 22 Dec. 1620, was proved 18 Jan.
following, by his relict Sarah. The register of that parish calls him a chirurgeon, and states
that he died on the 26th. He was second son of David Allen, a surgeon of Chesterfield, co. Derby,
where he was baptized 6 June 1586. His mother, Anne, appears to have remarried Godfrey
Heathcote, Alderman of Chesterfield. His wife was a nicce of Robert Ryece, of Preston, co.
Suffolk, the famous antiquary, and was his executrix in 1638. Their issue were a son Zouch,
and a posthumous dau. Sarah.
1 His will describes him as of Cobham, co. Kent, Esq. It is dated in 1618, and his relict
Anne administered 27 Mch. 1621. He left all his estate to her, to bring up their dau. Mary, and
an unborn child, and mentioned no other relations. He referred to sums due him for services
rendered to the King.
• Second son of Sir John Ramsay, Earl of Holderness (see his burial 28 Feb. 1625-6), by his
first wife, Lady Elizabeth Ratcliffe, cldest dau. of Robert, fifth Earl of Sussex. He was baptized
at the Chapel Royal, Whitehall, 17 May 1618, Prince Charles being one of his sponsors. See the
burials of his brother and sister, 28 Feb. 1617-8 and 14 Sep. 1621.
6 Only dau. of Sir Ranulphe Crewe, Chief Justice of the King's Bench, by his first wife
Julian, dau. and coheir of John Clipsby, of Clipsby, co. Norfolk, Esq. She was born 17 Feb.
1600-1, and died, unmarried, 22 Apl. 1621. See her brother's burial 3 Feb. 1648-9.
7 Robert Tounson, born in the parish of St. Botolph, Cambridge, where he was baptized 8
Jan. 1575-6, as son of "Renold Toulnesoun"; educated at Queens' College, Cambridge, of which
sometime a Fellow, and afterwards S.T.P.; installed Dean of Westminster 16 Dec. 1617, and
consecrated Bishop of Salisbury 9 July 1620. He died 15 May, leaving a wife Margaret (sister
of Dr. John Davenant, who succeeded him in his bishopric) and fifteen (or, as one authority
says, thirteen) children. See the baptisms of two of them, 1 Apl. 1619 and 1 June 1620. The
statement of his biographers that he left his family in great poverty is contradicted by the will
of his widow, who bequeathed considerable property and money, and by a letter of Bishop
Davenant which speaks of her giving reasonable portions with her daughters.

of Sir John Danvers, of Dauntsey, in the same county, Kt., by Elizabeth, dau. and coheir of Sir
John Nevill, fourth Lord Latimer. She died in St. Martin in the Fields, and the record of her
removal to be buried in the Abbey occurs, under the same date, in the register of that parish.
Her will, dated 23 Nov. 1620, was proved 28 Jan. 1621-2, by her brother Sir John Danvers and
her son Sir Edward Baynton.
¹ Rightly Edmond Hooper. He had a patent from the Dean and Chapter for life, as Master
of the Children, 3 Dec. 1588, and another, as Organist, 9 May 1606. He was also a Gentleman of
the Chapel Royal (sworn 1 Mch. 1603-4), and “an excellent composer of Church Anthems." He
died 14 July. IIis will, dated 20 Oct. 1620, confirmed 11 July 1621, was proved on the last day
of that month. He mentioned his long services to the Abbey, of thirty-eight years or more, and
directed to be buried in the Cloisters near his former wife, whose burial is not mentioned in the
Register, and which probably took place before 1607. He left forty shillings yearly for twenty
years to the poor of Great Stoughton, co. Huntingdon, and bequests to the poor of Halberton, co.
Devon, where he was born; of Bradninch, in the same county, where he was partly brought up;
and of Greenwich, where his honourable master Sir James Dyer put him to school. He also left
twelvepence each to sixty-seven poor men and women, which probably indicates his age at the
date of his will. He left several children by his first wife, viz., James (see his burial 30 Dec.1651),
Gabriel, John the elder, and a married daughter named Lee; and by his second wife Mary, who
was his executrix, cight others, all under age, of whom he named in his will John the younger,
Catherine, Edmond. Pelecna, and Alice.
2 Not Nathaniel, as in Collectanea. He is mentioned, as then Chaunter, in Dean Goodman's
will, dated 2 Mch. 1600-1. According to Camden's Annals he died 5 Aug. His will, dated 22
July, was proved 15 Ang. 1621 by his relict Susan. It mentions no children, nor relations, except
his wife's sister Margaret Hannam.
3 First wife of the Rev. George Darell, D.D., Prebendary of Westminster (sec his burial
4 Nov. 1631). A pedigree in St. George's MSS., Coll. Arm., iv. 77, describes her as
"Elizabeth
dau. of . . . . . Eton." She left two daughters, Elizabeth and Annc, who were both living at the
date of their father's will. Other accounts represent them as the children of Dr. Darell by his
second wife, but his will confutes this statement, and Anne was baptized at St. Margaret's, West-
minster, 24 May 1616.
4 Dau. of Sir John Ramsay, Earl of Holderness (see his burial 28 Feb. 1625-6) by his first
wife, Lady Elizabeth Ratcliffe, eldest dau. of Robert, fifth Earl of Sussex. She was born about
Mch. 1614-5. See the burials of her brothers, 28 Feb. 1617-8 and 25 Mch. 1621.
5 Rightly Cecil. See her father's burial 10 Feb. 1622-3. She was only child by his second
wife, Frances, dau. of William Brydges, fourth Lord Chandos, and relict of Sir Thomas Smith,
Master of Requests. She was born the 13th, and baptized at Wimbledon, Surrey, 30 July 1616,
but in the record of her baptism in the register of that parish she is called "Georgi-Anna."
Queen Anne was one of the witnesses.
• His will was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 15 Oct. 1621, by his relict
Mary, but is now missing. Dean Goodman, in his will dated 2 Mch. 1600-1, mentioned him as
one of his ncarest and most faithful servants.
7 The inscription on his monument indicates that he was a servant to one of the Preben-
daries. He died 28 Dec., in his 29th year.

¹ His name was Thomas, not John. His Funeral Certificate in the College of Arms describes
him as Thomas Whitby, of Hounslow, co. Midx., Esq., and states that he died in Westminster
the 22nd, and was buried in the Abbey 25 Jan. 1621-2. It also adds that he married, first, Jane,
dau. of Christopher Hewes, of Holt Castle, co. Denbigh, and, secondly, Margaret, widow of
Edmund Agar. He appears to have married a third wife, shortly before his death, as a marriage
license was granted at the Bishop of London's Registry, 4 May 1621, for Thomas Whitby, of
Hounslow, Esq., widower, aged 80, and the Lady Alice Dorne alias Pennycooke, of the same
parish, aged 50, widow of the late Lord Dorne; and administration was granted, 16 Feb. 1621-2,
on the estate of Thomas Whitby, of Hounslow, to his relict Lady Alice Dorne, pending
proceedings in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury between the said Lady Alice and John and
Timothy Whitby, sons of the deceased. (This "Lady Alice Dorne" is a mysterious personage,
and does not appear in any of the peerages. Hugh Farrer and Alice Penyquick were married
in the Church of St. Peter ad Vincula, in the Tower of London, 24 Sep. 1610, and among the
files of the House of Lords is a petition of one Robert Playle, dated 8 Mch. 1623-4, stating that
he was "imprisoned for arresting John Scott and Dame Alice Dome his wife, at the suit of
William Fawcett, not knowing that they were protected as servants of the Earl of Holderness.")
2 Rightly Neile. See her mother's burial 25 Aug. 1620, and her father's 23 June 1624. She
was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 11 Dec. 1611.
3 Third son of Sir John Holles, then Baron Houghton, created Earl of Clare 2 Nov. 1624, by
Anne, dau. of Sir Thomas Stanhope, of Shelford, Notts. Kt. He was admitted to Gray's Inn 12
Aug. 1617. According to his monument he died 12 Aug., in his 18th year, "returning home
from making a campaign in the Netherlands."
4 In The Court of King James the First, by Dr. Godfrey Goodman, Bishop of Gloucester,
edited by J. S. Brewer, 1839, vol. i. pp. 329-335, will be found a curious account of this person,
which may be thus briefly summarized: he was a priest, and professed Jesuit; came to England
from Rome with a grandson of Lord Treasurer Burleigh; became a convert to the Church of
England and got the Deanery of Carlisle; tiring of this, came to London and acted as substitute
for Sir Daniel Dunn, Master of Requests, whom he eventually succeeded in that office, and was
knighted; married, in the expectation of preferment, the mother-in-law of the Earl of Middlesex,
then Lord High Treasurer; but, failing to derive the benefit he sought by the marriage, took
offence at his wife, and left his whole estate to a servant, whom he knew to be a childless man
and then dying of a consumption, who, however, restored the greater portion of it to Sir Chris-
topher's widow. Other notices of him, of the period, are usually couched in the same contemp-
tuous language. The ascertained facts about him are few. He certainly obtained the Deanery
of Carlisle about 1596, and retained it until his death. He was knighted, at Whitehall, 23 July
1603. He was admitted a Commoner of the College of Advocates 20 Mch. 1604-5, and was then
described as a Doctor of Laws and Master of Requests. On the 5th Nov. 1617 he had a license
from the Bishop of London to marry Anne Brett, of St. Martin in the Fields, a widow, aged
about 50, whose husband had been dead about a year. He was described as a bachelor, aged
about 60. She was a dau. of Anthony Beaumont, of Glenfield, co. Leicester, Esq.; sister of the
Countess of Buckingham (mother of George Villiers, first Duke of Buckingham); relict of James
Brett, of Hoby, co. Leicester, Esq.; and mother of Anne, second wife of Lionel Cranfield, first Earl
of Middlesex. Sir Christopher, in his will, dated 30 Aug. 1620, described himself as a Knight,
and one of the Masters of Requests. He mentioned no relations, except his sister's children.
To his wife he bequeathed 100 marks per annum, and sundry plate, etc., provided she waived her
right to her thirds. After a few unimportant bequests, he then appointed as his sole heir and
exccutor, in consideration of his long services, Anthony Knight (or Bright), who, however,
renounced the execution of the will, and the relict Lady Anne administered, 2 Sep. 1622. The

property bequeathed to said Knight included his manor of Paddingdean, and his house in Cannon
Row, Westminster. When it is remembered that, allowing for the difference in the value of
money, the annuity bequeathed to his widow amounted to about £700 per annum of our present
currency, and that he was probably not a very rich man, it would seem that his memory might
properly be relieved from at least a portion of the odium heretofore attached to it. It is evident
from the wills and other records of the family of this name of Bunny, co. Notts, that he was
nearly allied to the contemporary ancestors of the first Baronet, but the precise relationship has
not yet been ascertained.
1 See his son's baptism 19 July 1608.
2 Son of the Rev. Dr. Gabriel Grant, Prebendary and Archdeacon of Westminster, and Vicar
of Walthamstow, Essex, by his first wife. Dr. Grant, who was eldest son of the Rev. Dr. Edward
Grant, Prebendary and Sub-dean of Westminster, and sometime Head Master of Westminster
School (who died 4 Aug. 1601 and was buried in the Abbey), dicd about Sep. 1638, having
married a second wife 11 Feb. 1633-4. He was first married before his father's death, aud
against his wishes; in consequence whereof, as he relates in his will, he made a vow to disinherit
him, and did so, by preferring his younger brother John. Dr. Gabriel Grant left no will, and
his relict Hannah (or Anne) administered to his estate 18 Dec. 1638.
³ Rightly Elianor Arnewood. Her will, as of Westminster, widow, dated 31 Dec. 1622, was
proved, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 9 June 1623, by her dau. Jane Arnewood.
She mentioned her other daughters, Anne Arnewood and Elizabeth Browne. The legacies
were comparatively trifling, and she was probably a domestic in the family of some one of the
Abbey officials.
4 Hc is mentioned as a Gent. of the Privy Chamber to K. James I., and General of H.M.'s
Forces in the Palatinate. In 1610 he was Gent. Extraordinary of the Privy Chamber to Prince
Henry. He was knighted at Whitehall 2 Mch. 1606-7. He had a license from the Bishop of
London, 28 May 1612, being described as of the city of London, bachelor, aged 40, to marry
Mary Shute, of St. Dunstan in the West, London, widow, aged 36. His will, as of Chiswick,
Midx., dated 1 June 1620, was proved 21 Mch. 1622-3, by his relict Mary. Her maiden name
appears to have been Rayneberd, and she was first married to ..... Coombes, by whom she had
two daughters, Mary and Elizabeth, who were living in 1620. Her second husband was Richard
Shute, of Fetter Lane, London, whose will, dated 18 Nov., was proved 18 Dec. 1611. Sir Thomas
Panton left by her three young daughters, Constance, Laureola, and Margaret. The second dau.,
Laureola, was baptized at Willesden, Midx., 2 Jan. 1618-9, and had a license from the Bishop of
London, 7 Jan. 1640-1, her mother being also then dead, to marry John Oakeley, of St. Margaret's,
Westminster, Gent., a bachelor, aged 41.
5 Eldest son of William Cecil, first Lord Burghley, Lord High Treasurer, by Mary dau. of Peter
Cheke, of Pirgo, Essex, Esq., and sister of Sir John Cheke, Kt. He was born in Great St. Mary's
parish, Cambridge, 5 May 1542, succceded as second Baron Burghley 4 Aug. 1598, and was
created Earl of Exeter 4 May 1605. He died 7 Feb. His will, dated 21 Nov. 1622, was proved
11 Mch. 1622-3. His first wife, Dorothy Nevill, second dau. and coheir of John, fourth Lord
Latimer, who died 22 May 1608, was, according to his own will and that of his dau. the Mar-
chioness of Winchester, certainly buried in the Abbey, although no record of it occurs in the
Register; but his second wife, Frances Brydges, dau. of William, fourth Lord Chandos, who
survived him until 1663, was as certainly buried in Winchester Cathedral, although the inscrip-
tion on his monument in the Abbey states that both wives were buried with him. See the
burials of his daughters, Oct. 1614 and 15 Sep. 1621, and of his son 9 July 1640.

¹ Letters of administration were granted, 23 July 1623, to Anne Blount, relict of Samuel
Blount, late of St. Mary, Savoy.
2 He had a patent from the Dean and Chapter, 7 Dec. 1621, as Organist and Master of the
Choristers, at £16 per annum, and for teaching and finding the children, at £36 13s. 4d. per
annum. His will, dated 31 July, was proved 21 Nov. 1623, by his relict Jane, in the Court of the
Dean and Chapter. He left issue William, Dorothy, and Thomazine. Some verses in Ashmole
MS. 38, p. 184 (Bodleian Library), greatly commend his skill as a musician.
3 His will, dated 22 Sep. and proved 3 Oct. 1623, completely identifies him with the one of
this name who became a Prebendary of St. Paul's 13 May 1591, and Rector of Hanwell, Midx.,
20 Sep. 1596, and whose identity puzzled both Newcourt and Le Neve. It describes him as a
Bachelor of Divinity, and one of the Prebendaries of Westminster. In the latter office he was
installed 6 May 1606. He was a son of John Fox, citizen and goldsmith of London, who died
8 June 1597, aged 78, and was buried in the church of St. Lawrence-Jewry, and who built and
founded the Free Grammar School at Dean, near Cockermouth, co. Cumberland, to the main-
tenance of which the son also contributed liberally. He evidently died unmarried, and left con-
siderable legacies to the children of his brother Richard, and of his sisters, Alice wife of Edward
Herne, and Ellen wife of Francis Ram, of Hornchurch, co. Essex, Esq.
4 Third son of Morris Wynne, of Gwydir, Esq., by his first wife, Jane, dau. of Sir Richard
Bulkeley, of Beaumaris, Kt., and younger brother of Sir John Wynne, first Bart. of Gwydir. He
was one of the Clerks of the Petty Bag in the High Court of Chancery. His will, dated 25 Sep.,
was proved 16 Oct. 1623. His wife Anne, dau. of Alderman Gage, survived him, but he evidently
left no issue. As his eldest brother was born in 1553, his age was probably about 65.
5 See her father's burial 10 May 1642, and her mother's 14 May 1649.
Son of Sampson Camden, citizen and painter-stainer of London, by Elizabeth. dau. of Giles
Curwen, of Poulton Hall, co. Lancaster, and born in the Old Bailey, London, 2 May 1551. He
became Second Master of Westminster School in 1575 and Head Master in 1592-3, Prebendary of
Salisbury 6 Feb. 1588-9 (although a layman), Richmond Herald 22 Oct. 1597, and the next
day Clarencieux King of Arms. He died at Chislehurst. Kent, the 9th, and was undoubtedly
buried in the Abbey 19 Nov. 1623, the date in the Register being an error. The inscription on
his monument also perpetuates an error, as it records his death in his 74th year, whereas, if the
date which he himself assigned to his birth be correct, he was exactly 72 yrs. 6 mos. and 7 days
old. His will, dated 21 May, was proved 10 Nov. 1623, the very day after his death, by his sole
executor, William Heather, Gent.
But little can be added at the present day to the personal history of this famous man, the
excellent society which bears and perpetuates his name having exhausted all accessible resources
of information respecting him. A few entries from the Chapter Books of Westminster may,
however, not be without interest. His name first occurs 16 May 1587, among certain regulations

..
It may be added that the register of St. Augustine's, London, records the marriage in that
church, 4 Sep. 1575, of Sampson Camden and Avis Carter;" but whether this was a second
marriage of the father of the great antiquary, or that of a brother or other relative, it is impos-
sible to determine.
¹ Third son of Thomas Coxe, of Beamonds, Herts, Esq., by Bridget, dau. of William Lansford,
of co. Sussex, and born in the parish of St. Peter, near St. Albans, in the former county. He
was knighted at Whitehall 24 July 1603, had been Taster to Q. Elizabeth, and was at his death
one of the Masters of the King's Houschold. He died unmarried, 13 Dec., in his 69th year. His
will, dated 10 May, was proved 24 Dec. 1623, by his brother, John Cox, of Beamonds, Esq.
2 Ludovic Stuart, eldest son of Esme, first Duke of Lennox, by Catherine, youngest dau. of
William de Balsac, Seigneur d'Entragues and Marcoussis, Governor of Havre de Grace. He was
born 29 Sep. 1574, and succeeded as second Duke of Lennox 28 May 1583. He was created, 6
Oct. 1613, Baron Setrington and Earl of Richmond, aud, 17 May 1623, Earl of Newcastle and
Duke of Richmond. He married, first, Lady Sophia Ruthven, dau. of William, first Earl of
Gowrie, and, secondly, Jean, dau. of Sir Matthew Campbell, of London, Kt. See his third wife's
burial 12 Oct. 1639, and his brother's 6 Aug. 1624. He died without legitimate issue, and his
English titles became extinct.
3 His will, dated 31 Mch., was proved 16 Apl. 1624, and describes him as of Stoke-under-
Hamdon, co. Somerset, Gent., and as having a house in Westminster. He mentioned his wife
Joane, his daughters Bridget and Phillippa, and his son John (see his baptism 16 Sep. 1622).
He was a brother of Isaac Seward, and of Henry Seward, D.D., l'rebendary of Salisbury, who
administered to his estate on behalf of his minor children.
4 His will, dated 12 April, was proved, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 1 June 1624,
by his relict Jane and by Griffith Pritchard, M.A. He is described as of the city of Westminster,
Gent. He left his estate in England and Wales to his wife and daughters, Grace, Frances, aud
Catharine, and mentioned his sons-in-law Reynold Conway and Robert ap Hugh Griffith, Gent.
5 He was a brother of the Most Rev. Richard, Archbishop of York, being eldest son of
Paul Neile, a tallow chandler of Westminster, by his wife Sibill, and was born about 1560. He
held several patents of minor offices from the Dean and Chapter, finally becoming Registrar, or
Chapter Clerk, 4 May 1607. His will, dated 30 Jan. 1615-16, with a codicil 21 June 1624, was
proved 25 June 1624. See the burial of his first wife 25 Aug. 1620, and of a dau. 25 July 1622.

Among other children by her, his son John became eventually Dean of Ripon, and his dau.
Frances wife of the Rev. Dr. Edward Burby, Archdeacon of Winchester. He married, secondly,
Joyce, dau. of William Stapleton, of Littywood, co. Stafford, Esq., who survived him and re-
married the Rev. Thomas Harding, B.D., Rector of Souldern, co. Oxford, and for many years
Second Master of Westminster School. She died 28 May 1650, æt. 49, and was buried in St.
Mary's Church, Oxford. Paul Neile, the father of this William and of the Archbishop, was
buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 16 June 1574, and his widow, Sibill, whose maiden name,
from her first husband's will, appears to have been Tapping, was remarried there, 25 April 1575,
to Robert Newell, and became mother of the Rev. Dr. Robert Newell, Prebendary of Westminster,
Sub-dean of Lincoln, etc.: sce the burial of his son 30 Nov. 1626, and note thereto. In Dr.
Newell's will, dated 11 June, 1642, he states that she was buried in the great north porch of the
Abbey, but the record of it does not occur in the Register.
1 ¹ Letters of administration were granted by the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 28 May
1625, on the estate of Arthur Manwayring, Esq., late of the city of Westminster, to Peter Daniell,
his sister's son. He was a younger son of Henry Mainwaring, of Kermincham, co. Chester, Esq.,
Sheriff of Cheshire in 1575, by Elinor, dau. of Sir Thomas Venables, Baron of Kinderton. The
will of Mary, widow of Arthur Manwayring, Gent., dated 21 Mch. 1626-7, was proved in the
Court of the Dean and Chapter, 12 Feb. 1629-30, by Everard Maynwaring, Gent., whom she
mentioned as living with her. She bequeathed the arrearages of the annuity due to her from
Peter Daniell, of Tabley, co. Chester, Esq. They appear to have left no issue. In a herald
painter's work-book in the College of Arms he is described as of Canterbury.
2 The date should probably be 1621. The nuncupative will of John Williams, late of West-
minster, was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 1 Aug. 1621, by his mother, Margaret
Dyer alias Williams. See his father's burial 24 July 1612, and note thereto.
(This entry, in the portion of the Register devoted to burials within the Abbey, imme-
diately follows that of 17 Feb. 1623-4.) He was second son of Esme Stuart, first Duke of
Lennox, by Catherine, youngest dau. of William de Balsac, Seigneur d'Entragues and Marcoussis,
Governor of Havre de Grace, and was created, 7 June 1619, Baron Stuart of Leighton Broms-
wold, and Earl of March. He succeeded his elder brother (see his burial 17 Feb. 1623-4) as third
Duke of Lennox, but enjoyed the title little more than six months, dying of the spotted fever, at
Kirby, co. Northampton, 30 July in the same year. See the burials, of his son 18 Apl. 1655, and
of his daughters, 7 Sep. 1618 and 17 Mch. 1693-4.
4 Youngest surviving dau. of Sir Christopher Hatton, of Kirby, co. Northampton (see his
burial 11 Sep. 1619, and note thereto), and was baptized at Barking, Essex, 22 June 1609. She
"died of the spotted fever, a pretty gentlewoman, much lamented" (Court and Times of James I.,
ii. 471).
5 He had a patent from the Dean and Chapter as chief butler, 3 May 1620.
6 Son of Sir Robert Lane, of Horton, co. Northampton, Kt. by his first wife, Catherine, dau.
of Sir Roger Copley, of Gatton. co. Surrey, Kt. He was knighted 23 July 1603, being then one
of the Gentlemen Ushers to the King. He was of Ketton, co. Rutland, and of Barford, co.
Warwick, and was Sheriff of Rutland in 1612 and 1622. He married, at Chelsea, Midx., 12 Aug.
1619, Dudley, dau. of Sir Arthur Gorges, Kt., by Elizabeth, dau. of Henry, Earl of Lincoln, who
survived him, and was buried at Chelsea 24 Aug. 1667. His will, dated 22 Sep., was proved 2
Oct. 1624. Besides his wife's jointure, and a remission of upwards of £2,000 due to him from
the King, he left his estates to his cousin, William, Lord Feilding, Earl of Denbigh. (The
register of St. Martin in the Fields records his death in that parish, and his burial in the Abbey,
under the same date as that in the text).

See her husband's burial 2 Oct. 1635. She was his first wife, and in his will he desired to
be buried beside her in the Abbey. In the Visitation of Berkshire she is called the dau. of
Edward Jervys, of co. Southampton.
2 He had a patent from the Dean and Chapter, as chief brewer, 4 Dec. 1599. Dean Goodman,
in his will dated 2 Mch. 1600-1, mentioned him as one of his nearest and most faithful servants.
His will, dated 25 Mch., was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 22 Apl. 1625, by his
relict Mary. See his son's burial 4 June 1645.

25 July 1603. See the burials of his Queen 13 May 1619, and of their children, 16 Dec. 1607,
8 Dec. 1612, and 17 Feb. 1661-2. (For an interesting account of the recent discovery of his
coffin see Dean Stanley's Memorials of Westminster Abbey, third edit. p. 681, etc. If the precise
place of his interment indicated in the text had been accepted, the long search would have been
unnecessary, but we should then have missed other discoveries of the greatest interest and little
less importance.) It is curious that the Cheque Book of the Chapel Royal gives the date of his
burial as the 7th of May, instead of the 5th, as do also the contemporaneous diary of Sir Simonds
D'Ewes and various other authorities.
• Letters of administration were granted by the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 26 Jan.
1625-6, to his relict Sarah Gyles.
6 Only son of Edward de Vere, seventeenth Earl of Oxford, and only child by his second wife,
Elizabeth, dau. of Thomas Trentham, of Rocester, co. Stafford, Esq. He was born 24 Feb.
1592-3, and baptized at Stoke Newington, Midx., 31 Mch. following, and succeeded as eighteenth
Earl in 1604. He married Lady Diana Cecil, second dau. of William, second Earl of Exeter, who
survived him, but by whom he had no issue. He died during the siege of Breda, in command of
a regiment. His will, dated 20 May, was proved 16 July 1625.
7 The will of Morgan Mathew, of Dublin, Esq., dated 8 July 1625, was proved 3 July 1626,
by his son Hugh Morgan. He left surviving a wife Anne, dau. of Griffith Pigott then deceased.
He mentioned his cousins Sir David ap Richard alias Morgan, Clerk, Samuel Davies, of Dublin,
and Roger Davies, Constable of Dublin Castle. He appears to have died while temporarily
sojourning in Westminster.
8 Jane Ogle, eldest dau. and coheir of Cuthbert, seventh Baron Ogle, by Catherine, dau. and
coheir of Sir Reginald Carnaby, Kt. She is usually called Joane in the books, but in the Abbey
Register, on her monument, and in her will, her name is distinctly Jane. See her husband's
burial 9 Feb. 1617-18. Her nuncupative will, made 20 Dec. 1625, was proved at York 1 June
1627, by her sister, Lady Katherine Cavendish.
• The name occurs variously as Lemetayer, Lemitaire, Limeter, Limiter, and Lymitter. He
matriculated at Oxford, from Broadgates Hall, as George Limiter, 28 Apl. 1580, aged 17, and is
described as "Pleb. fil.," and of co. Kent. He had a grant of arms 14 June 1616, as George

by his wife Anne, are recorded at St. Bride's, London, between 1596 and 1602, and in one of them
he is described as a "gentleman belonging unto the office of the First Fruits": in the St. Bride's
Register the name is always Lymitter. He had a patent from the Dean and Chapter of West-
minster, 3 Dec. 1607, as Receiver-General and Solicitor, and the same was renewed, 4 May 1621,
to him and his son Charles. He died intestate, but the will of his widow, Anne, dated 8 Dec.
1627, was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 22 Feb. 1627-8, by her married dau.
Mary Browne.
¹ He is mentioned as a deputy bell-ringer in a will dated in 1609. In his own will, dated
19 Jan.. and proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter 17 Feb. 1625-6, he is described as of
the city of Westminster, yeoman. It mentions only his wife Elizabeth, and his son and heir
John, then a minor, to whom he bequeathed a messuage and tenement in Thames Ditton, co.
Surrey.
2 Sir John Ramsay, Kt. (son of James Ramsay, who died about 1580), the preserver of the
life of King James I. on his attack by the Ruthvens. He was created Viscount Haddington 11
June 1606, and Baron of Kingston-on-Thames and Earl of Holderness 22 Jan. 1620-1. He
married, first, 9 Feb. 1608, Lady Elizabeth Ratcliffe (eldest dau. of Robert, fifth Earl of Sussex).
who died 6th Dec. 1618, and secondly, about July 1624, Martha, third dau. of Sir William
Cockayne, of Rushton, co. Northampton, Kt., who survived him, and remarried Montague Bertie,
second Earl of Lindsey. His will, dated 6 Jan. 1625-6, was proved, after a legal contest, 16 Feb.
1626-7, by the Countess Martha. By her he had no issue. See the burials of his children by his
first wife, 28 Feb. 1617-18, and 25 Mch. and 14 Sep. 1621.
3 Probably, from his will, the first wife of James Chapman, Baker to the College: see his
burial 15 Jan. 1663-4.
4 Younger brother of John, first Earl of Clare, being son of Denzell Holles, Esq., by Eleanor.
dau. of Edmund, first Lord Sheffield of Butterwick. He was baptized at Irby-on-Humber, co.
Lincoln, 1 Sep. 1577, knighted at Greenwich 2 July 1609, and was a Major-General in the
Netherlands. He died on the 19th of this month, and his will, dated 13 May, was proved 16
June following. He died unmarried, leaving his nephew Denzell, afterwards Baron Holles of
Ifield, his residuary legatee.
5 Son of the Rev. Robert Newell, D.D., Prebendary and Sub-dean of Westminster (who was
half-brother of the Most Reverend Richard Neile, Archbishop of York), by his wife, daughter of
John Clarke, of Clothall, co. Herts, Yeoman, and sister of the Rev. Gabriel Clarke, D.D., Arch-
deacon of Durham. Dr. Newell, in his will, dated 11 June 1642 and proved 1 May 1646, states
that his wife and another child were buried in the same locality in the Abbey, but no record of
either occurs in the Register. The other child was undoubtedly Dorothy, who was baptized in
the Abbey 22 Nov. 1622, as he left but one surviving dau., Elizabeth (see her baptism 23 Mch.
1623-4).
• Lady Elizabeth de Vere, eldest dau. of Edward, seventeenth Earl of Oxford, by his first
wife, Anne, dau. of William Cecil, Lord (Treasurer) Burghley, and wife of William Stanley,
sixth Earl of Derby, to whom married 26 June 1594. In the parish register of Richmond,
Surrey, she is said to have died there on the 10th of March. The Earl survived her, and died 29
Sep. 1642, but was buried at Ormskirk. See the burials of her daughters, 20 Mch. 1608-9 and 15
Feb. 1656-7, her sister 1 Feb. 1628-9, and her grand-daughter 4 Apl. 1629.

to a horoscope in Ashmole MS. (Bod. Lib.) 243, p. 185, he was born 17 Nov. 1625, and according
to his coffin-plate, exposed in 1867, he died 16 Mch. 1626-7.
2 Second son of Sir Francis Beaumont, of Grace Dieu, co. Leicester, Kt., one of the Justices
of the Common Pleas, by Anne, dau. of Sir George Pierrepont, of Holme Pierrepont, co. Notts,
Kt., and relict of Thomas Thorold, of Marston, co. Lincoln, Esq. He was born in 1582, and was
created a Baronet 29 Jan. 1626-7. He is always said to have died in the year 1628, and it is
possible that the date in the text is an error by the transcriber of the old Register. His widow,
Dame Elizabeth, did not administer to his estate until 3 Jan. 1628-9. In Collectanea the
date is erroneously given as the 29th April. See his brother's burial 9 Mch. 1615-16. The first
collected edition of his Poems was privately published in 1869, by the Rev. A. B. Grosart.
3 Dau. and coheir of George Garrard, Esq. (second son of Sir William Garrard, of Dorncy,
co. Bucks, Kt.), by Margaret Dacres his wife. According to her monument she died 18 Apl., in

and memoir of him in Sir John Hawkins's History of Music, iv. 30.) His will, dated 21 July,
was proved 16 Aug. 1627. He lived in the Almonry, Westminster, and had houses and lands at
Chiselhurst and Bromley, in Kent. He mentioned his brother-in-law William Ryman, then
deceased, and numerous cousins of the names of Manning,' Bannister, Pearman, l'escod, and
Buckridge, but left his lands and residue of personality to his cousin William Ireland, of West-
minster, Gent., who was his executor. He bequeathed £17 6s. 8d. per annum for ever for a
music lecture at Oxford, and left his widow £150 per annum for life, and £300 to dispose of by
will at her pleasure: see her burial 6 Sep. 1635.
7 Henry Northedge had a patent from the Dean and Chapter as one of the bell-ringeis, 15
May 1598. Dean Goodman, in his will dated 2 Mch. 1600-1, mentioned Henry Northage as one
of his nearest and most faithful servants. Henry Northage was appointed by the Dean and
Chapter, 4 Dec. 1606, an usher of the hall, with a livery and twenty shillings per anuum. Henry
Northridge had a patent for life, 6 Dec. 1613, as purveyor to the College. These notices doubtless
all refer to the person named in the text, as it was quite usual for the singing-men to hold other
offices connected with the Abbey.
8 Eldest son of Richard Burgh, of Stow, co. Lincolu, Esq., by Anne, eldest dau. of Anthony
Dillington, of Knighton, Isle of Wight, Esq. He was knighted at Greenwich 4 May 1623, and
was colonel of one of the six regiments sent to the Palatinate in Dec. 1624. He was slain while
besieging the citadel of St. Martin, in the Isle of Rhé, in the preceding month. The 20th of
September is usually mentioned as the date of his death; but a MS. in the Bodleian Library
(Rawlinson B. 480), cntitled "A Journal touching the Voyage to the Isle of Ree, 1627," under
date of 11 Sep., says, "This night also Sir John Burgh was slain "; and a poetical account of Sir

3 Dau. of the Rev. Leonard Hutton, D.D., Canon of Christ Church. Oxford, and wife of the
Rev. Richard Corbett, D.D., afterwards successively Bishop of Oxford and Norwich, who died 28

so was her mother" (Aubrey's Letters, ii. 294).
A patent was granted by the Dean and Chapter, 3 Dec. 1610, to Roger Edwards and
Thomas White, "of the office of looking to the conduit pipes and the leads of and about the

remarried Sir Thomas Mostyn, of Mostyn, Kt. He appears to have equipped and sailed a priva-
teer at the period of the Spanish Armada, and afterwards cruized with Drake and Raleigh. In
the time of K. James I. he was accused of piracy by the Spanish Ambassador, who pressed the
charge so strongly that he was compelled to sell his estate to obtain a pardon. He married
Margaret, dau. of Sir Thomas Mostyn, of Mostyu, Kt., by Ursula, dau. of William Goodman, of
Chester, by whom he had three sous, William, Robert, and Rees, who all died young, and four
daughters. See the burial of his kinsman Feb. 1636-7.
8 Younger son of Sir George Villiers of Brookesby, co. Leicester, Kt., by his second wife,
Mary, dau. of Anthony Beaumout. of Glenfield, co. Leicester, Esq. (see her burial 21 Apl. 1632).
He was born at Brookesby 28 Aug. 1592; married, in 1620, Lady Katherine Manners, ouly dau.
and heir of Francis, sixth Earl of Rutland; and was assassinated at Portsmouth 23 Aug. 1628.
He was created Baron of Whaddon and Viscount Villiers 27 Aug. 1616; Earl of Buckingham 5
Jan. 1616-7; Marquis of Buckingham 1 Jan. 1617-18; and Earl of Coventry and Duke of
Buckingham 18 May 1623. See the burials of his children, 17 Mch. 1626-7, 10 July 1648, 28 Nov.

Sir Philip Herbert, created Earl of Montgomery 4 May 1605, who succeeded as fourth Earl of
Pembroke 10 Apl. 1630, and died 23 Jan. 1649-50. They were married at Whitehall 27 Dec.

4 Elizabeth, only surviving child of Thomas Butler, tenth Earl of Ormond and third of

first, to her cousin-german, Theobald, Viscount Butler of Tullcophelim, co. Carlow, who died
Jan. 1613, and, secondly, to Sir Richard Preston, Baron Dingwall in Scotland, who was created
Earl of Desmond in Ireland 22 Nov. 1622, and who was drowned in the Irish Channel 28 Oct.
1628. She is said to have died in Wales 10 Oct. 1628, shortly before her husband, and was
probably removed to be buried by her father's first wife and her own brother in this chapel. See
the burial of her only child 24 July 1684.
5 Charlotte Stanley, eldest dau. of James, then Lord Strange, who succeeded as seventh
Earl of Derby 29 Sep. 1642, and was beheaded at Bolton 15 Oct. 1651, by Charlotte, dau. of
Claude de la Trémouille, Duke of Thouars, famous for her gallant defence of Lathom House and
the Isle of Man, and who died 21 Mch. 1663-4. She died in her infancy. See her grandmother's
burial 11 Mch. 1626-7. (Sir Egerton Brydges, in his edition of Collins's Peerage, iii. 83. states
that Charles, third son of William, sixth Earl of Derby, was buried in the Abbey on the 24th of
this month; but no record of it occurs in the Register, and he has perhaps been in some way
confounded with this Charlotte.)
6 Eldest child of K. Charles I., by Q. Henrietta-Maria, third and youngest dau. of Henry IV.
King of France; born and died at Greenwich.-" Mary, Q. of England, delivered of her first son,
stillborn, 13 May 1629, about 3 A.M." (Horoscope in Ashmole MS., Bod. Lib., 243, p. 185).
Other accounts, probably more correct, state that he lived long enough to be baptized by Dr.
Webb, and by the names of Charles-James. Archbishop Laud, in his Diary, states that he buried
him on the 14th of May. From all the testimony there is little doubt that he was born about
three o'clock on the morning of the 13th, and buried a little before midnight on the 14th. The
date in the Register is an error. See the burials of his sisters and brothers, 8 Dec. 1640, 21 Sep.
and 29 Dec. 1660, and 14 Feb. 1684-5. Another sister, the Princess Katharinc, being fourth dau.
and seventh child, was born and died 20 Jan. 1638-9, and was undoubtedly buried in the Abbey ;
but no record of it occurs in the Register, which is especially defective about that period.
7 John Hitchcock had a patent from the Dean and Chapter, 7 Dec. 1620, as second cook,
and another, 7 Dec. 1621, as gardener. He is mentioned in a will dated 7 Dec. 1631 as still one
of the College servants, and probably remarried, as letters of administration were granted by
the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 20 Sep. 1634, to Judith, relict of John Hitchcock, late of
Westminster, deccased.

deficiency by the expression "desunt 1630, etc.," it is evident
that the records embracing this period, so far as the Cloisters
are concerned, were then hopelessly lost.]

In 1629 he had a grant in reversion of the office of Master of the Rolls, but died before it fell to
him, 9 June 1630, aged about 57. Letters of administration were granted, 24 June 1630, to
his relict Dame Judith, his second wife (his first wife having died in May 1615), who was a dau.
of Sir William Poley, of Boxted, co. Suffolk, Kt. They were married, at Bury St. Edmunds,
3 Feb. 1615-16. She died 9 June 1661, aged about 63, and was buried at Boxted. See the burial
of their second son 16 Mch. 1643-4.
3 In his will, dated 28 Dec. 1630, and proved 5 Feb. 1630-1, he is described as a Knight, and
one of the Gentlemen of His Majesty's Bedchamber. On his monument he is called First
Gentleman of the Bedchamber. He was evidently a Scottish Knight. and his arms were those
of Fullerton of Craighall. The recumbent statue of his wife is placed with his own, but the
tablet left for the inscription respecting her is entirely blank, and no record of her burial occurs
in the Register. Although the fact has dropped out of the family history, he married at Abbots-
Langley, Herts, 9 Apl. 1616, Magdalen, dau. of Sir Alexander Clerk, of Balbirnie, co. Fife, and
relict of Sir Edward Bruce, first Baron Bruce of Kinloss, who died 14 Jan. 1610-11, and was

He died 4 Oct., and his will, dated 29 Sep., was proved 7 Oct. 1631. It describes him as of
Shorne, co. Kent, Esq.; but he also had a residence in Tothill-street, and was the founder of that
street, in Westminster, which still bears his name. He married Chrisogon, youngest dau. and
coheir of Herbert Morley, of Glynde, co. Sussex, Esq., who, as well as a son and two daughters,
survived him. See his sister's burial 11 Sep. 1653, and that of his great-grandchild 12 June

widower, were granted, 31 Aug. 1633, to his son, "Arbellino" Holland, also of Westminster,
gentleman.
The Right Hon. Sir Thomas Richardson, Kt., successively Speaker of the House of Commons
and Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas and King's Bench. He is usually stated to have
been the son of Dr. Thomas Richardson, a clergyman of Mulbarton, Norfolk, and to have been
born at Hardwick, in that county, 3 July 1569; but, in the entry of his baptism in the parish
register of Hardwick, of that date, he is described as the son of William Richardson and Agnes
his wife, and a MS. note in the margin identifies him with the Chief Justice. By his first wife,
Ursula (third dau, of John Southwell, of Barham Hall, Suffolk, Esq.). who was buried at St.
Andrew's, Holborn, 13 Juuc 1624, he had twelve children, of whom only one son and four daughters

he was born in Eastcheap, London, in 1599, and but one wife has been assigned to him. Even
in the recorded pedigree of the family in the College of Arms his ancestry and his first two wives
are completely ignored. The following results have been obtained after much research and
difficulty, and may be relied upon. He was a younger son (one of sixteen children) of William
Paule, citizen and butcher of London, by Joane his wife, dau. of John Harrison, beadle of the
Butchers' Company, and was baptized at St. Leonard's, Eastcheap, 14 Oct. 1599. He matriculated
at Oxford, from All Souls College, 15 Nov. 1616, and had the degree of D.D. before 1633. He
became Rector of Baldwin-Brightwell, co. Oxford, as early as 1633, and was Chaplain in Ordinary
to Kings Chas. I. and II. On the 8th of April 1661 he was installed Dean of Lichfield, and was
consecrated Bishop of Oxford 20 Dec. 1663. He died 24 May, and was buried at Baldwin-
Brightwell 6 June 1665. His will, dated 14 Nov. 1664, was proved 21 Feb. 1665-6. On the 12th
of Nov. 1632 he had a license from the Dean and Chapter of Westminster to marry "Mary
Glemham," and in 1633 (the rest of the date being illegible) the parish register of Baldwin-
Brightwell records the burial of "Mary, wife of William Paul, D.D., rector of this parish." She
was a dau. of Sir Henry Glemham, Kt. On the 22nd of Jan. 1634-5, he was again married, at
St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., to" Alice Cutler," and the Baldwin-Brightwell register states that
Alice, wife of William Paul, D.D.. rector of that parish, died on the 19th and was buried in
Westminster Abbey the 20th of Nov. 1635. There can, therefore, be no doubt of the identity of
the person named in the text. She was second dau. of Thomas Cutler, of Ipswich, J.P. for co.
Suffolk, by his first wife, Anne, dau. of Thomas Dandy, of Combes, co. Suffolk, Esq. Dr. Paule
almost immediately after remarried, thirdly, Rachel, dau. of Sir Christopher Clitherow, Kt., by
whom he had a numerous issue; but the male line has long since been extinct, while the female
is now chiefly represented by the Baroness Le Despencer, whose ancestor Sir William Stapleton,
Bart., married the heiress of Bishop Paule's only surviving grandson.
¹ Florence, one of the two daughters of Henry Stephens [Stephanus], the famous continental
printer and author of the Thesaurus, by his first wife, a lady of the family of Schrimger. She
was married, at St. Peter's, Geneva, 28 April 1586, to Isaac Casaubon (sec his burial July 1614),
by whom she had twenty children, the most eminent of whom was Dr. Meric Casaubon, Preben-
dary of Canterbury. Her age at her death must have been upwards of 70 years.
2 William Griffith. In his will, dated 12 Nov. 1633 and proved 22 Feb. 1636-7, he directed
to be buried in Westminster Abbey, near his kinsman Peers Griffith, Esq. (see his burial 21 Aug.
1628). He mentioned his sons Charles, Thomas, and Robert; his daughters Katherine, Bridget, and
Frances (who proved the will); his son-in-law Dr. Nixon; his brother-in-law Mr. Maximilian
Smythe; his brother Vachan; and his cousin Ellic Sutton. His wife Margaret appears to have
been buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 3 Mch. 1633-4.
3 See her sister's baptism 5 Mch. 1607-8, and note thereto. Her will, dated 8 Dec. 1637, was

Hague, which she hoped her gracious mistress the Queen of Bohemia, in consideration of her long
service, would discharge.
First wife of the notorious "Tom Killigrew" (sec his burial 18 Mch. 1682-3). She was
dau. of Sir John Crofts, of Saxham, co. Suffolk, Kt., by Mary, dau. of Sir Thomas Shirley, of
Wiston, co. Sussex, and was married at Oatlands, Surrey, 29 June 1636. She was one of the

1 ¹ Second son of Andrew Aytoun, of Kinaldie. parish of Cameron, Fifeshire. Esq.. by Mary
Lundie his wife, and born in Kinaldie Castle about 1570. His exquisite poetry introduced him
to the Court of K. James I., where, becoming first a Groom of the Privy Chamber, he was shortly
promoted to be a Gentleman of the King's Bedchamber, and also private Secretary to the Queen,
and was knighted at Rycot 30 Aug. 1612. On the accession of K. Charles I. he was continued in
the same posts, and in 1636 was made a Privy Councillor. Master of Requests, Master of Cere-
monies, and Master of St. Katharine's Hospital. He died in the Palace at Whitehall, unmarried,
in his 68th year. His will, dated 25 Jan.. was proved 7 Mch. 1637-8, by his nephew John Aytoun,

See her mother's burial. Mch. 1615. In the letters of administration granted to her only child,
Elizabeth. Countess of Peterborough, 20 June 1638, she is described as of Hawnes, co. Beds, but
died in the parish of St. Bartholomew the Great, London..
4 Identified in Collectanea as a son of Sir Christopher Hatton by his wife Alice Fanshawe;
but more probably their grandson, and a young child of Christopher. first Lord Hatton of
Kirby (see his burial Aug. 1670, and his wife's 11 Jan. 1672-3).

7 Lady Frances Howard, only surviving dau. of Thomas, first Viscount Bindon (by his third
wife, Mabel, dau. of Nicholas Burton, of Carshalton, co. Surrey, Esq.). and relict of Ludovic
Stuart, second Duke of Lennox and first of Richmond (sce his burial 17 Feb. 1623-4). She had
previously been the wife and widow, first of Henry Prannell, of the Middle Temple and of Bark-
way, Herts, Esq., who died in 1599, and secondly of Edward Seymour, first Earl of Hertford, to
whom she was married about 27 May 1601 (Mar. Lic. D. and C. of Westminster), and who
died in April 1621. According to her Funeral Certificate (Coll. Arm.) she died, without issue,
at Exeter House in the Strand, the 8th of October, "in the great Clymactericall yeare of her
age" [¿.c. 63], and was buried in the vault with her last husband, the Duke of Richmond. Her
will, dated 28 July and proved 31 Oct. 1639, is very long and of marvellous historical and genea-
logical interest, and contains one eccentric direction (for a lady of her years), viz., that her body
shall not be opened, but packed in bran before it is cold, and buried "wrapt in those sheets
wherein my lord and I first slept that night when we were married."

He succeeded his father as Vicar of Calder in 1583, but became Chaplain to Ludovic, Duke of
Lennox, in 1601, and thus found his way to the Court. He became Archbishop of Glasgow 20
July 1603, and was translated to St. Andrews 30 May 1615. Having had the honour of crowning
K. Charles I., he was made Lord Chancellor of Scotland in 1635. He died 26 Nov., in his 74th

knighted at Woodstock 10 Dec. 1603, and was a Lieut.-Colonel under Sir Francis de Verc. His
will, dated 6 Dec. 1628, was proved 15 July 1640, by his relict Dame Elizabeth, who was a dau, of

have died, in London, "20 Fch. 1640." He was eldest son of Sir Cormac Mac Carthy, of Blarney,
Lord of Muskerry, by his first wife, Mary, dau. of Sir Theobald Butler, Kt., Lord of Cahir. He
married, first, Lady Margaret O'Brien, dau. of Donogh. fourth Earl of Thomond, and, secondly,

was proved 13 July 1640, by his relict, to whom he left his entire personal estate. He died with-
out surviving male issue, and the title descended to his nephew.
7 Third dau. and sixth child of K. Charles I. and Q. Henrietta-Maria, and born at St.
James's Palace 17 Mch. 1636-7. She died at Richmond on the day stated in the text, but it may
be doubted if she was buried the same day, and it is probable that the transcriber of the old
Register, not finding the record among the fragments, or the date illegible, entered the burial
under the known date of her death. (It was she who, according to the account of one of her
attendants preserved by Fuller, could not say her long prayer (the Lord's Prayer) while in the
agonies of death, but would say her short one, viz., Lighten minę eyes, O Lord, lest I sleep the
sleep of death!")

¹ His will, dated 16 Jan. 1640-1, was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 22 Feb.
following, by his relict. Its bequests are trifling, and indicate that he occupied some humble
position about the Abbey. It names his father John Blizard, his mother Christian, and his
brother John.
2 It has been impossible to identify this person, who must have been of some importance.
or he would not have had honourable burial within the Abbey. It is quite probable that the
surname was wrongly transcribed. A Charles Mac Carthy was knighted 24 Mch. 1619-20. by
Lord Grandison, Lord Deputy in Ireland, and, as the place of interment was about the same, it
is possible that he was a connection of Viscount Muskerry buried 27 May preceding.

According to her coffin-plate, she died the preceding day.
5 In his will, dated 24 Apl. and proved, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 30 June 1641.
he left considerable legacies to the parish of Llanwnda, co. Carnarvon, where he was born, and
provided especially for building a schoolhouse and maintaining a schoolmaster there. The will
gives no clew to his family, but mentions his sisters Jane and Margaret, both married, and his
kinsman Evan Hughes. His residuary legatee and executor was his nephew David ap-Evan, his
sister Margaret's eldest son. (On inquiry, it appears that the parish of Llanwnda never received
his bequests, or, if it did, that they were not applied as he directed.)

wife of George Kirke, the notorious Groom of the Chambers. In Robert Heath's Clarastella"

his burial 30 Dec. 1641), to whom married before 21 May 1623, when Camden (the antiquary) left
her £2 in his will, as the widow of Birkhead and wife of Bush.

1 In the record of administration to his estate, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, Feb.
1641-2, he is called "Isaac Bush alias Dolwen." He was one of the messengers of the Exchequer
temp. Jas. I. See his wife's burial 9 Sep. preceding. Their only dau., Anne, was wife of William
Gawen, of Westminster, and it is stated on a monument in the Cloisters that she died 26 Nov.
1659, and was there buried with five of her children; but no record exists in the Register of any
of them, except a dau. Margaret (see her burial 14 Apl. 1650), and perhaps a son Edward (sce a
burial 30 June 1643). The will of her husband, William Gawen, then of Harpenden, Herts,
Gent., dated 24 July 1699, was proved 11 Aug. 1702.
2 See his father's burial Aug. 1670, and his mother's 11 Jan. 1672-3.
3 In his will, dated the 4th and proved 19 May 1642, he styled himself "Clerk," and is so
called in the Cheque Book of the Chapel Royal, as also “a Base, from Salisbury." He appears
to have been first sworn a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal 5 Nov. 1611, and was Chauuter of
the Abbey as early as 1623. His will states that he was born at Colebrooke, co. Devon, where his
brother Robert was then residing, and that he was brought up in Exeter Cathedral, of which he
was still a member. See his daughter's burial 11 Oct. 1623, and his wife's 14 May 1649.
He had a patent of the Catership, for life, 5 Dec. 1612, and another as Clerk of the
Kitchen 6 Dec. 1617 (Chapter Book). One of the same name in 1597, who was called the Dean's
Coachman, left the reversion of a small estate in Mepal, Isle of Ely, to Lawrence, his brother
William's son, who may have been the person named in the text. See his wife's burial 8 Jan.
1628-9. He appears to have remarried, at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 1 Apl. 1632, Elizabethı
Langton.
5 William Hervey, son and heir of Henry Hervey, by Jane, dau. of James Thomas, Esq.
For his splendid military services he was knighted in 1596, and was created a Baronet 31 May
1619, and a peer of Ireland the following year, with the title of Baron Hervey of Ross, co.
Wexford. On the 7th of February 1628 he was raised to the English peerage, as Baron Hervey,
of Kidbrook, co. Kent. He married, first, Mary, dau. of Anthony, Viscount Montagu, and relict
of Henry, Earl of Southampton, by whom (who died in 1607) he had no issue; and, secondly,
Cordell, youngest dau. of Brian Ausley, of Lee, co. Kent, Esq., Gentleman-Pensioner to Q. Eliza-
beth, by whom he had several children; but, all dying except Elizabeth, wife of John Hervey,
of Ickworth, Esq., the titles became extinct at his death. (His second wife was buried at
St. Martin in the Fields 5 May 1636.) His will, dated 16 Dec. 1637, was not proved until
1 Nov. 1648. See his daughter's burial 17 Nov. 1648.
• See the burial of (probably) her husband 24 July 1654, and a burial 17 May 1621.
7 Probably a young son of Dr. George Aglionby, who was at this time a Prebendary of
Westminster, and on the 6th of May following was constituted Dean of Canterbury, but never
installed, and shortly after deprived of both preferments. He was married in 1635 (Mar. Lic.
Bp. Lond. 3 July) to Sibilla Smith, who appears to have survived him, and to have been
a witness to, and legatee in, the will of Godfrey Goodman, Bishop of Gloucester, dated 17 Jan.
1655-6. Dr. Aglionby died at Oxford, and was buried in Christ Church Cathedral 11 Nov. 1643,
shortly after his deprivation. See the burial, of (probably) another son, 1 Dec. 1705.

married before 1634 (Visitation of Herts), and apparently died without issue. Sir Abraham, by
his second wife, had four children, two of whom, Abraham and Rebecca, survived him. He
was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 15 Aug. 1654, and his will was proved the 22nd of
that month. His relict, Dame Rebecca. remarried, about Mch. 1655, the Rev. Sampson
Johnson, D.D., Rector of Fobbing, Essex. who was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster,
25 May 1661, and she was also buried there 29 Jan. 1683-4.
1 It is quite probable that this name was incorrectly transcribed, and should be Gawen.
See the baptism of Edward Gawen 20 Feb. 1642-3, and the burial of Isaac Bush 30 Dec. 1641,
and notes thereto.
2 Probably a child of the regicide of this name, who was executed at Tyburn 19 Apl. 1662.
3 The record of the probate of his will occurs in the books of the Dean and Chapter, but the
will itself is missing. It was proved 10 Nov. 1643, by the relict Kinborough. In the Cheque
Book of the Chapel Royal occurs his appointment, as "Pisteler," 24 Mch. 1609-10, when he made
oath that if he lived to be twenty-one years of age he would enter into Deacon's orders, and in
the same volume, under date of 31 Aug. 1633, occurs his resignation, in which he is described as
“Dr. of Divinity," and he is so called in the probate of his will. This document is signed "Tho:
Peirs." He probably became Chaunter of Westminster when he resigned from the Chapel
Royal.
See her husband's burial 27 May 1644. The name appears to have been Hassard.
5 See his father's burial 11 June 1630. He was second son by the second wife, and born
about 1621.
6 Dau. of Sir William Courten, Kt. (by his second wife, Hester, dau. of Peter Tryon. Esq.),
and first wife of Henry Grey, tenth Earl of Kent, to whom married, at Clapham, co. Surrey, 14
Oct. 1641. See the burial of her only child 20 June 1644. The Earl remarried, and died in
1651, his second wife and relict, the "Good Countess," surviving him nearly half a century.
7 There appear to have been two eminent military men of this name, both Scotchmen and
both named John, who are often confounded in contemporaneous history. Sir John Meldrum,
who was knighted at Windsor 6 Aug. 1622, was undoubtedly the one who took part in the
memorable actions at Newark, Hull, Scarborough, etc., 1643-5, and received his death-wound at
the latter place. His will, dated 24 May 1645, was proved 2 June 1647. The one named in the
text was Colonel John Meldrum, of the Parliamentary army, who is said to have been killed at
Alresford, Hants. His name occurs in the List of the Parliamentary Army in 1642. as Lieutenant
of the 2nd Troop of Horse, under the general command of William. Earl of Bedford, and he
evidently obtained rapid promotion. As the Battle of Brandon (or Cheriton) Heath, near Alres-
ford, took place on the 29th of March 1644, and his nuncupative will was made on the 8th of
April following, it is probable that he was mortally wounded on that day; or, the two dates may
be identical, allowing for the difference between Old and New Style. The will states that he was
"very much wounded." It was proved 16 Nov. 1648 by his relict Jane, to whom he left con-
siderable legacies, as well as to his son Andrew and his dau. Jane, then a minor. His remains
were included amongst those of other eminent Parliamentarians which were exhumed after the
Restoration and thrown into a common pit in St. Margaret's church-yard.

1 Probably the eldest son of "Theodoro Paleologus," whose well-known monument is in the
church of Landulph, Cornwall, who claimed direct descent from the last Palacologus who
reigned in Constantinople, by Mary, dau. of William Ball, of Hadleigh, co. Suffolk, who
were married at Cottingham, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, 1 May 1600, as Theodorus
Palelogue et Maria Balle." He had been a lieutenant in the Parliamentary regiment com-
manded by Lord St. John, which may account for the particular place of his interment. Therc
can be little doubt as to the identity of this person, and the identification in the Archæologia
(xviii. 83) of the "mariner," whose will was proved 15 Mch. 1693-4, with the younger Theodoro
named in the Landulph inscription is clearly an error. That person was a common sailor, who
did not know how to spell his own name, if it was his, but wrote it "Palæologcy."
The inscription on his monument states that he was Clerk of Her Majesty's Robes, and
died 8 May. Sir Roger Aston, Kt., Master of the King's Great Wardrobe, in his will, dated 15
May 1612, called him his servant, and left him £100 and his cloth of gold doublet, etc. The
baptisms of eight of his children occur in the parish registers of St. Margaret's, Westminster,
between 1612 and 1627, and the burials of four of them in infancy.
3 Edward Hassard had a patent from the Dean and Chapter as Chief Cook, for life, 3 May

4 (This entry occurs between those of 3 May and 20 June, in the separate list of burials
within the Abbey.) She was a sister of the Rev. Dr. George Hamden, Rector of St. Luke's,
Chelsea, and of Coulsdon, Surrey (who died in 1632), and was married, at St. Thomas, city of
Oxford, 19 Feb. 1600-1. Her husband, Leonard Hutton, D.D., Canon of Christ Church, died 17
May 1632, in his 75th year, and was buried in the Cathedral. Her will, dated 10 Feb. 1642-3,
was proved 6 Dec. 1644. See her daughter's burial 12 Apl. 1628, and note thereto.

Anstruther, K.B. at the coronation of K. James I. He was a Gentleman of the Bedchamber to
K. James I., privy councillor to K. Charles I., and a favourite and successful ambassador abroad
during both reigns. He married Catharine, dau. of Sir Robert Swift, of Rotherham, co. York, Kt.,
and was ancestor of the modern baronets of his name. (See an amusing account of him in the
Diary of Abraham de la Pryme, Surtees Society, 1870, p. 107.)

¹ Nicholas Boscawen, of Tregothnan. co. Cornwall, eldest son of Hugh Boscawen, by
Margaret, dau. of John Rolle, of Heanton, co. Devon. He was born in 1623, and joined the

His remains were removed after the Restoration, and buried in a common pit in St. Margaret's
churchyard.

Norfolk, in Dec. 1602, and Bishop of Clogher, Ireland, 22 Oct. 1621. He left a son Sir Henry,

Mch. 1574-5. He was knighted at Oatlands 4 July 1613, became Master of the Requests in 1616,
and Lord Treasurer of England in Oct. 1621, but was impeached in 1624. He was created, 9
July 1621, Baron Cranfield, of Cranfield, co. Bedford, and, 16 Sept. 1622, Earl of Middlesex. He
died Aug. See the burials, of his second wife 12 Feb. 1669-70, and of their sons, 18 Mch.

citizen and grocer of London, he had issue only three daughters.
8 Mar. Lic. D. and C. of Westminster, 12 June 1609, for Henry Gransden, of Gravesend,

and Chapter, to her dau. Mary Goodwyn.
9 There can be little danger in identifying this person as the William Loe alias Leo, D.D.,
who is described in the Athen. Oxon., and of whose ultimate fate. having traced him to this very
year, Wood was uncertain. On 13 Nov. in this year letters of administration were granted, by
the Court of the Dean and Chapter, to the estate of " William Leo alias Loe, S.T.P., late of the
city of Westminster," to a creditor, which shows that he died within their jurisdiction, and there
is no record of the death of any Dr. Lee, in any of the professions using that title, at this period.
He appears to have been a native of Kent, and entered public life as master of the College
School at Gloucester and Vicar of Churcham in that county. He was installed Prebendary of

Gloucester in 1602, and was Sub-dean of that Cathedral in 1605. In 1618 he became pastor of
the English Church at Hamburg, but returned to England as early as 1624, and subsequently
officiated as curate at Putney and Wandsworth, in Surrey. It is of him that the story is told
that, having to preach in a church near London at a morning service, when a Mr. Adam was to
preach in the same church in the afternoon, he selected for his text the words "Adam, where
art thou?"; to which his colleague responded later in the day by a discourse from the words
“Lo, here am I." He was a poet of considerable skill, as may be judged from the fact that he
published a volume of his verses composed exclusively of monosyllables. This curious work was
reprinted in 1871, by the Rev. A. B. Grosart, in his Fuller Worthies' Library, the Editor's
"Memorial-Introduction" to which may be consulted for all that has been gleaned respecting
his personal history.
1 Only dau. and heir of Francis Norreys, first Earl of Berkshire, by Lady Bridget de Vere,
dau. of Edward, seventeenth Earl of Oxford. She was married, at St. Mary Aldermary, London, 27
Mch. 1622, to Edward Wray, Esq. (younger son of Sir William Wray, first Bart. of Glentworth,
co. Lincoln), Groom of the Bed-chamber to K. Charles I. Through her only dau., Bridget, she
was ancestress of the present Earl of Abingdon.
2 The name of Sir William Elphinstone occurs in the Roll of the Ordinary Lords of the
Session in 1637, and in that of the Lords Justice-General shortly after, but he appears to have
been displaced in 1641. He was knighted at Whitehall 3 Feb. 1636-7, and in the old lists the
name is Elveston, as in the text, but he seems to have written it himself Elphinstoun. He was
the youngest son of George Elphinstone of Blythswood, and brother of Sir George Elphinstone,
Justice-Clerk. His will, dated 26 Nov. 1639, was not proved until 9 Dec. 1647. Except a legacy
of £100 to his nephew William, son of James Elphinstoun of Woodside, he left all his estate to
Sir David Cunningham, Kt. and Bart., to whom he was deeply indebted.
3 Eldest dau. of Sir Thomas Mauleverer, first Bart. of Allerton-Mauleverer, co. York, by his
second wife, Mary, dau. of Sir Thomas Wilbraham, Kt. According to the inscription on her
monument, she was born in 1622, and married in 1644 to Col. Thomas Scot, M.P. Both her
husband and father were among the judges of K. Charles 1. the former died in 1655, and the
latter was executed at Charing Cross 17 Oct. 1660. See her brother's burial 25 July 1675, and
(probably) her mother's 10 Mch. 1652-3.
4 William Twisse, D.D., Rector of Newbury, Berks, and Prolocutor of the Assembly of
Divines under the Commonwealth. He was born at Speenhamland, in the parish of Speen, co.
Berks, about 1575, the son of a clothier at Newbury, whose father had emigrated from Germany.
He was educated at Winchester and Oxford, and became a Fellow of New College 11 Mch.
1597-8. At the time of his death he appears to have been holding only a lectureship at St.
Andrew's, Holborn, where he died on the 20th July in this year. His will, dated 9 Sep. 1645,
with a codicil 30 June 1646, was proved 6 Aug. in the latter year. He would seem not to have
been so reduced in circumstances as the accounts of him usually represent, for, besides other not
inconsiderable legacies, he bequeathed his manor of Ashampstead, Berks, to trustees for the
benefit of his younger children. He left four sons and three daughters, but his wife (Frances,
dau. of Barnabas Colnett, of Combley, Isle of Wight) had predeceased him. His remains were
included (but why, it is difficult to say) among those of others exhumed after the Restoration and
thrown into a common pit in St. Margaret's churchyard.

2 The famous Commander-in-Chief of the Parliamentarian Army. He was the eldest and

dau, and heir of Sir Francis Walsingham, and widow of Sir Philip Sidney, and was baptized in
the house of his grandmother Lady Walsingham, in Seething Lane, St. Olave's, Hart Street,
London, 22 Jan. 1590-1. In 1603 his father's dignities were restored to him, and he became third
Earl of Essex. He was first married, 5 Jan. 1605-6. when about fifteen years of age, to Lady
Frances Howard, dau. of Thomas, first Earl of Suffolk, from whom he was divorced in 1613, and
secondly, about 1628, to Elizabeth, dau. of Sir William Paulet, of Eddington, Wilts, from whom
he was also divorced a few years later. He died 14 Sep. 1646, without surviving issue, and the
title became extinct. His will, dated 4 July and 5 Aug. 1642, was proved 15 Dec. 1646.

1638. The Duke, who was mortally wounded at the battle of Worcester, died 12 Sep. 1651, and
was buried in Worcester Cathedral. The Duchess remarried Thomas Dalmahoy, Esq., and died

3 Born at Alkmaar in 1595, and educated at Leyden, of which University a Doctor of the Civil
Law. He had a Lectureship at Cambridge, but was silenced on account of his republican principles.
He became afterwards Judge Advocate in the army of the Parliament, and finally a Judge of the
Court of Admiralty. He was admitted a Commoner of the College of Advocates, London, in
1629, and to full membership in 1645. In May 1649 he was sent by the Parliament as Envoy
to the Hague, where he was assassinated about the 13th of that month. His son Isaac adminis-
tered to his estate 25 May 1649. His remains were afterwards disinterred, and buried in
St. Margaret's churchyard; but not, it is said, in the common pit. He married in this country.

refers to another of their sons.
2 His nuncupative will, proved 1 Oct. 1650, by his brother Nathaniel Ludlow, sole legatce
and executor, thus commences: "Mem". that Philip Ludlow, late of the city of Westminster,
bachelor, deceased, departed this life on the high seas on board ye ship Sephier, on the 13th of
August last, 1650, he being commander-in-chief of the Brazcele merchant ships homeward
bound."

Abbey.
5 Fifth son of Sir Francis Popham, of Littlecott, Wilts, Kt. (son and heir of Sir John
Popham, Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench), by Annc, only dau. and heir of John Dudley,
of Stoke Newington, Midx., Esq. He married Anne, dau. of William Carr, Groom of the Bed-
chamber to K. James I., and had issue a son Alexander and a dau. Letitia. He was one of the
Admirals of the (Parliament) Fleet, and died of a fever at Dover, on the 19th of August. The
date of his burial in the text is manifestly incorrect, and the transcriber probably inserted what
he knew to be the month of his death. Anthony Wood says that he was buried on the 24th of
September, but Heath's Chronicle says the 24th of October, and states that it was on the evening
of the day appointed by the Parliament as one of thanksgiving for the royalist defeat at
Worcester (which occurred 3 Sept.), and which they had first fixed for the 2nd Oct., but after-
wards postponed until the 24th, and that the funeral was attended by Cromwell and many of the
members. These minute details appear to establish the date of burial as the 24th of October.
His remains were included in the royal warrant for disinterment after the Restoration, but it has
always been understood that they escaped the intended indignity of being thrown into the
common pit in the churchyard, and were allowed to be carried away by his friends. His
elaborate monument was also suffered to remain in the Abbey, but on condition that the inscrip-
tion upon the tablet should be thoroughly defaced, which was accordingly done. The story by
Dart, that the tablet was simply turned with the inscription inward, is a pure myth.

secondly, Mary, dau. of Patrick, Lord Ruthin, and relict of Sir Anthony Van-Dyke, Kt., and

Rebecca, dau. of Thomas Sheafe, D.D., Prebendary of Windsor, and Rector of Welford, Berks.
In the Visitation of Leicestershire, 1619, he is described as a "mercer," but in the record of his
marriage at Chelsea as "Esquire." Heath's Chronicle mentions Sir Arthur's brother. in 1647-8, as
suborning witnesses to vilify the King, and he evidently served the Parliament so faithfully as
to secure honourable burial within the Abbey, and thus rendered his memory so obnoxious that
his remains were included among those disinterred after the Restoration and thrown into a
common pit in the churchyard. His brother-in-law, Thomas Sheafe, M.D., administered to his
estate, 23 July 1652, in behalf of his minor children, Dorothy and Frances. In the record of
administration he is described as "late of St. Martin's, Ludgate, London." and he had doubtless
been a mercer on Ludgate Hill. His dau. Dorothy, in 1658, was wife of John Grimstone, and
then administered de bonis non to her father's estate.

Westminster 8 Mch. 1631-2, but was, of course, not now in possession of his stall. The descrip-

in which the earlier portion of the Register was compiled, as a clause from his will amply proves.
"I desire," he wrote, "to be buried in St. Peter's Church in Westminster, whereof I was some time
a Prebendary, in the aisle on the backside of the stall or scat which then belonged to me." He
died at his lodgings in Clement Lane, Westminster, on the 17th of October. His will, in which he
is styled "Doctor of Divinity," dated 12 Oct., was proved 2 Nov. 1652, by Gabriel Moore, his
nephew and residuary legatcc. See the burial of Mrs. Mary Moore, 16 Feb. 1648-9, who, if not
his wife, was probably a relative.
1 Eldest son of Arthur Salwey, of Stanford, co. Worcester, Esq., by Mary, dau. and coheir of
Thomas Searle, of London, Esq. He was at this time a member of the Long Parliament, and
also held the office of "Remembrancer of the Public Exchequer." Although thus officially con-
nected with the then Government, he appears to have refused to act as one of the Commissioners
appointed to try the King, and does not seem to have deserved the indignity to which his remains
were subjected after the Restoration; but his name was included among those in the royal
warrant, and his bones found a final resting place in the common pit in the churchyard. He
married, about 1614, Anne, second dau. of Sir Edward Littleton, of Pillaton Hall, co. Stafford,
Kt., who died before him, and their descendants are still seated at Moor Park, in Shropshire.
His will, dated 18 July 1648, contains the curious statement that there was then due to him from
the county of Worcester his " wages for attending the present Parliament from the 3rd of
November 1640, to the present time." A codicil, dated 19 July 1651, recites that the Parliament
of the Commonwealth had, on the 15th inst., voted that £200 per annum for seven years should
be paid to his representatives, out of the office of the Remembrancer of the Public Exchequer,
towards the payment of his debts. The will was not proved until 3 Mch. 1653-4, and then by
his principal creditor, the exccutors appointed declining to act.
2 Dau. of Thomas Wilbraham, of Woodhey, co. Chester, Esq., by his second wife, Mary, dau.
of Peter Warburton, of Arley, in the same county, Esq. She was second wife of Sir Thomas
Mauleverer, first Bart. of Allerton Mauleverer, co. York (one of the Regicides), who died about
June 1655. She is always called Mary in the books, but there can be no doubt of her identity,
as she was the only "Lady" Mauleverer living at this period, and as on the 2d, 9th, and 16th of
July in the following year (1654), the publication of her husband's intended marriage with
Susannah Raylton, of Fulham, Midx., widow, is recorded in the parish register of St. Margaret's,
Westminster. (The marriage, however, appears not to have taken place, as there is no record of
it in the historics of the baronet's family, and her will, as Susannah Raylton, of Fulham, widow,"
was dated 27 Nov. 1669, and proved 4 Jan. following.) She left a dau. Elizabeth, but none
named Mary, and the name of her husband's first wife was Mary. It is probable that her name
is correctly given in the text. See the burials, of her dau. 26 Feb. 1645-6, and her son 25 July
1675.

of Sunderland. His father died in 1649, and his mother remarried (at St. Dionis Backchurch,
London, 12 Feb. 1654-5) Charles Pawlet, Lord St. John, afterwards Duke of Bolton. He would
have succeeded to the Earldom, if he had survived his grandfather, who died 13 June 1661. He

admirable account of him and his career, consult his "Life" by the Rev. John-Bathurst Deane,
published in 1870.) He was killed during the naval engagement with the Dutch, on the 2nd of
June, being only in his forty-second year. He married, at the Temple Church, 21 May 1647,
Mary, dau. of John Grimsditch, of Knottingley, co. York, Esq., who survived him and remarried,
at St. Bartholomew the Great, London, 2 Jan. 1654-5, Colonel Edward Salmon, another well-
known Parliamentarian. Colonel Deane's remains were ignominiously exhumed after the Resto-
ration, and, with those of others equally eminent in maintaining the honour of the British flag,
thrown into a common pit in the churchyard. His will, dated 31 Mch. 1653, was proved 20
Jan. 1653-4, by his relict. He left two daughters, Mary and Hannah. The stupid stories propa-
gated by his political enemics as to his vulgar origin and early career have been abundantly
disproved by his recent biographer, and posterity is already doing justice to his memory.
1 Cecily, eldest dau. of Sir John Tufton, Kt., and first Bart. of Hothfield, Kent, by his second
wife, Christian, dau. of Sir Humphrey Browne, Kt., one of the Judges of the Common Pleas.
She was first married to Sir Edward Hungerford, of Farley Castle, Wilts, Kt., and afterwards to
Francis Manners, sixth Earl of Rutland, who died 17 Dec. 1632, and was buried at Bottesford,
co. Leicester. See the burials, of her son 7 Mch. 1619-20, and her brother 6 Oct. 1631. Her will,
dated 10 Dec. 1649, was proved 4 Sep. 1654, and a codicil dated 7 June 1652, probably sub-
sequently discovered, was proved 27 Nov. 1654.
2 (Erroneously "Mr. Francis Carew" in Collectanca.) Probably Frances, dau. of Hon.
Thomas Carey (second son of Robert, first Earl of Monmouth), by Margaret, dau. and heir of
Sir Thomas Smith, Kt., Master of the Requests. She was born in 1631, and died unmarried.
Her father, who was a Groom of the Bedchamber to King Charles I.. was born at Berwick-on-
Tweed, and baptized there 16 Sep. 1597. He died at Whitehall 9 Apl. 1634, and was buried on
the 14th in the place indicated in the text, but no record of the fact occurs in the Register. His
widow remarried Sir Edward Herbert, Kt., Attorney-General.
3 Son of John Fulham, of Hope-under-Dinmore, co. Hereford. He had a patent from the
Dean and Chapter, as Clerk of the Works, 4 May 1621. His relict Dorothy administered to his
estate 20 Jan. 1653-4. His son, the Rev. Edward Fulham, D.D., was the first Canon of Windsor
installed after the Restoration. He died 9 Dec. 1694, and was buried at Compton, Surrey. See
a pedigree of the family in Collectanea Top. et Gen. i. 18.
4 His nuncupative will, as John Holmstead, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Gent., made
Feb. 1653-4, was proved 16 Dec. 1656, by his relict Margaret, who had then remarried (see her
burial, as Margaret Chambers, Jan. 1677-8). The will merely bequeathed £10 to his dau. Ann,
and was witnessed by Thomas Raper, who was one of the Abbey porters. He was probably a
minor official.
5 William Greene had a patent from the Dean and Chapter, 7 Dec. 1621, as under cook,
and is mentioned as one of the College servants in 1632.
• One of the Gentlemen of the Chapel Royal, and Master of the children. His will, dated
15 July 1653, with a codicil 2 Jan. 1653-4, was proved 18 May 1654. His relatives named in it
were all of Hampshire, and he appointed his kinsman Sir Anthony Ashley Cooper, Bart., one of
his executors. See his son's burial 1 June 1627.
7 Rector of More Crichel, co. Dorset, 1640: appointed by the Parliament Minister of St.

doubtless held some minor official position in or about the Abbey.

Betton Grange, Shropshire. He became a Colonel in the service of the Parliament, and was
appointed Governor of Shrewsbury 2 June 1646. He was a member of Cromwell's second l'ar-
liament, and also one of his council. He married, first, at St. Andrew's, Holborn, 30 Jan. 1622-3,
Anne, dau. of Thomas Waller, of Beaconsfield, Bucks, Esq., and, secondly, Mary, dau. of Thomas
Venables, Esq., titular Baron of Kinderton, co. Chester. His son Thomas administered to his

York. Not only were his remains exhumed after the Restoration and thrown into the common
pit in the churchyard, but his estates were especially excepted in the general pardon sub-
sequently granted by K. Charles II.
1 The eminent preacher of his day, whose great abilities and influence over the Parliament
were admitted even by Clarendon. He was a native of Godmanchester, co. Huntingdon, and
entered Emanuel College, Cambridge, 1 Apl. 1615. He was at various times minister at Finching-
field, Essex, St. Margaret's, Westminster, and St. Mary-at-the-Quay. Ipswich. He died 19 Nov.
His will, undated, was proved 11 Feb. 1655-6. His remains were removed after the Restoration,
with those of many others who had rendered themselves obnoxious to the royalists, to a common
pit in the churchyard. (The scandalous story, first started by Pepys, and occasionally repro-
duced to this day, that two of his daughters, named Anne and Rebecca. were actresses and
courtesans during the reign of King Charles II., and even that King's own mistresses as late as
1672, may be safely repudiated as untrue. At the date of his will his wife was dead, and five of
his daughters were already married, three of them at least to clergymen, and had several chil-
dren. His remaining daughter, Susan, was unmarried, but more than 21 years of age, as she
proved her father's will.)
2 Son of Arnold Usher, one of the Six Clerks of the Irish Chancery, by Margaret, dau. of
James Stanihurst, Speaker of the Irish House of Commons. He was born in Dublin. 4 Jan.
1580-1, and educated at Trinity College in that city. He became Professor of Divinity in that
College, and subsequently Chancellor of St. Patrick's Cathedral. He was elevated to the
Bishopric of Meath, by patent dated 22 Feb. 1620-1, and translated to the Archbishopric of
Armagh by patent dated 21 Mch. 1624-5. He also held the see of Carlisle in commendam, by patent
dated 16 Feb. 1641-2, and in 1647 was appointed Preacher to the Society of Lincoln's Inn. He
died in the Countess of Peterborough's house, at Reigate, Surrey, 21 Mch. 1655-6, and was buried
in the Abbey, by order of Cromwell, 17 Apl. 1656. His only dau. Elizabeth, wife of Sir Timothy
Tyrrell, Kt., administered to his estate 3 May following. He married, in 1614. Phoebe, only dau.
of Rev. Luke Chaloner, D.D., who was buried at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, 22 Nov. 1654.
3 The identification of a person of this name and rank ought not to be even difficult, but has
been so far impossible, which leads to the suspicion that there is some error, either in name or
date.
4 Second son of Edward Ellis, of Chesterton, co. Cambridge, Esq., by Jane, dau. of Thomas
Stoteville, of Brinkley, in the same county, Esq. (see her burial 6 May 1631). He was Gentle-
man-waiter to King James I., and Cup-bearer to King Charles I. His will, dated 15 July, was
proved 21 Oct. 1656. He evidently died unmarried.
5 Lady Anne Stanley, only surviving dau. of William, sixth Earl of Derby, by the Lady
Elizabeth de Vere (see her burial 11 Mch. 1626-7). She was first married to Sir Henry Portman,
second Bart., and secondly to Robert Kerr, first Earl of Ancrum, who died at Amsterdam in 1654.
See her daughter's burial 4 Jan. 1646-7.
6 Only dau. and heir of Edward Wray, Esq., by the Lady Elizabeth Norreys (see her burial
28 Nov. 1645), and born in 1627. She married, first, Edward Sackville, second son of Edward,
fourth Earl of Dorset, who died in 1646, and, secondly. Montagu Bertie, second Earl of Lindsey,
to whom she was second wife, who survived her and died 25 July 1666. Her eldest son (by
her second marriage), James, became aron Norreys in her right, and was created Earl of
Abingdon.

dau, and heir of Sir Robert Naunton, Kt., Secretary of State to K. James I. She was baptized at
St. Olave, Hart Street, London, 14 Nov. 1638, and was married at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx.,
18 June 1647, before she was quite nine years old, to Hon. John Herbert, youngest son of Philip,
fourth Earl of Pembroke and first of Montgomery. See her husband's burial 23 Nov. 1659, and
that of her only sister, the Countess of Oxford, 27 Sep. 1659, whose marriage took place on the same
day as her own. Her mother had remarried Philip, fifth Earl of Pembroke, her husband's
brother, and her almost unnatural marriage at her tender age was probably influenced by family
considerations.
1 The most famous naval commander of his own and perhaps any other age, whose name
and fame are still precious to Englishmen, although his bones were subjected to the indignity of
disinterment and removal to the common pit in the churchyard. Surely, an exception might
have been made in his case, for he was always simply the British officer, and never the Common-
wealth partizan. He was a younger son of Humphrey Blake, of Bridgewater, co. Somerset,
Gent., by Sarah, dau. and coheir of John Williams, of Pawlett, in that county, and was baptized
at St. Mary's, Bridgewater, 27 Sep. 1599. There is a discrepancy between the date in the text
and those in all the accounts of the period, the latter stating that he died on the 17th of August,
while his ship was entering Plymouth harbour, and that he was buried in the Abbey on the 4th
of September. His will, written with his own hand, and signed and sealed on board the "Naseby,"
then lying in St. Helen's Roads (Isle of Wight), 13 Mch. 1655-6, was proved 20 Aug. 1657. He
died unmarried, and left his property, which was considerable, chiefly to his brothers.
2 Elizabeth Cornwallis, second dau. of Sir William Cornwallis, of Brome, co. Suffolk, Kt., by
his first wife, Lucy, fourth dau. and coheir of John Neville, Lord Latimer. She married, first, at
her father's house in St. Botolph, Bishopsgate, London, 22 Nov. 1596, Sir William Sandys (son
and heir of Sir Walter Sandys, third son of Thomas, Lord Sandys of the Vyne), who died in
1629; and secondly, at St. Bride's, London, 11 May 1630, Richard, first Viscount Lumley,
to whom she was second wife, and who survived her. Her will, dated 18 Sep. 1641, with a
codicil 26 July 1652, was proved 29 June 1659.
3 Dau. of William Boughton, of Lawford, co. Warwick, Esq., by Jane, dau. of Humphrey
Coningsby, of Hampton Court, co. Hereford, Esq. (see her burial 16 Nov. 1614). She married,
first, Ralph Wright, of Snelston, co. Derby, and, secondly, John Fleet, of Hallow, co. Worcester,
Esq., whom she survived.
4 In the record of the letters of administration granted to his relict Anne, 10 Dec. 1658, he
is described as "late of Great Yarmouth, co. Norfolk." Richard Smyth's Obituary, under the
date in the text, says "Mr. Coleman, once dwelling in Bell Alley, in Coleman Street [London],
died at Westminster."
5 Thomas Raper had a patent as one of the porters of the Abbey, 6 Dec. 1617, and was men-
tioned in 1632 as one of the College servants. He had now, evidently recently, become one
of the twelve privileged Almsmen of the Abbey. On 18 Mch. 1655-6 he was married, at
St. Margaret's, Westminster, as Thomas Raper, yeoman, to Elizabeth Vaughan, spinster, and she
administered to his estate 31 Dec. 1658. In this record his name is also given as Raper. Sec

3 His will, as "Scipio Le Squire. Esq., Senior Chamberlain of the Court of Receipt in the

in the Cloisters, near the monument of his ancient friend Mr. Arthur Agard (see his burial
24 Aug. 1615). Sir Simonds D'Ewes mentions him as Deputy Chamberlain as early as 1630,
and, from his reference to Agard, he was probably brought up in that office. He was admitted
to Gray's Inn 10 Aug. 1627, as of St. Martin in the Fields, Gent. His wife Elizabeth and
several childreu survived him. To his son Scipio he bequeathed his lands of inheritance at
Bagshot, co. Surrey, and in Middlesex and Devonshire.
name.
4 Lambert Osbaldeston, or Osbolston, as his family appear to have always written the
He is always erroneously said to have been the son of Lambert Osbolston. Rector of
St. Olave, Southwark, and to have been born in that parish. His baptism does not occur in the
parish register of St. Olave, nor was his father ever Rector there. On the contrary, in the
Visitation of London, 1633-4, he is described as a "haberdasher." and in that of 1664 as a
"Gentleman." The baptisms of two or three of his younger children are recorded in the
St. Olave's register, and he is there described as a haberdasher. Anthony Wood says that he
died in 1662, but this son Lambert administered to his estate 26 Apl. 1622. His wife was Martha
Bankes, of a London family. Their eldest son was the Rev. William Osbolston, Rector of East
Hanningfield and Great Parndon, Essex, who died about 1615-6. Their third son. Robert, con-
tinued his father's business, and his third son, Robert, also became Rector of Great Parndon, aud
was buried there 3 Mch. 1679-80. They had several other sons and daughters, who appear to
have all died young. The person named in the text was their second son, and was educated at
Westminster School, whence he was elected to Oxford in 1612. His name, however, does not
appear in the matriculation register until 20 Oct, 1615, when he is described as the son of a
'gentleman," born in London, and aged twenty-one. On the 25th Oct. in this year he was
admitted to Gray's Inn. He took his M.A. degree 27 Apl. 1619. On the 7th Dec. 1621 he had a
joint patent (with Rev. John Wilson, D.D.), from the Dean and Chapter of Westminster, of the
Head-Mastership of Westminster School, which was renewed to him alone 27 Jan. 1625-6. In
July 1629 he was collated to prebends of both Lincoln and Westminster. In 1638, having
expressed himself too freely respecting Archbishop Laud, he was deprived of all his preferments
by the Star Chamber, fined £5,000, and sentenced to have his ears nailed to the pillory in
presence of his scholars, but escaped the execution of this sentence by flight. In 1641 his livings
were restored to him, but, becoming disaffected with the course of the Parliament, they were
again sequestered, and he lived in retirement until his death. He died unmarried.
5 Rev. Richard Gouland, A.M., Keeper of the Library, to which post he was appointed by a
patent from the Dean and Chapter, dated 27 Jan. 1625-6, with a salary of £20 per annum. The
inscription on his monument states that he bequeathed a "large sum" for the purchase of choice
books for the Library, but the exact amount named in his will was £10, which was to be

evidently unmarried. His will, in which he stated that he was born in the parish of St. Swithin,
city of Lincoln, was dated 18 Mch. 1658-9, and was partly in hieroglyphics, which were
deciphered by his nephew. It was proved 30 Apl. 1660, by his brother-in-law and residuary
legatce, Rev. Henry Page, Vicar of Ledbury, co. Hereford, who had married his sister Alice.
1 Youngest son of Philip, fourth Earl of Pembroke and first of Montgomery, by his first

He died without issue, and his brothers, Philip, fifth Earl of Pembroke, and the Hon. James
Herbert, administered to his estate 17 Apl. 1660. See his wife's burial 1 May 1657, and note.
2 Anne, second dau. of Sir Nicholas Hyde, Kt., Chief Justice of the King's Bench, by Mary,
dau. of Arthur Swaine, of Sarson, Hants, Esq. She died 23 Aug. 1660, in her fiftieth year, being
then the widow of Sir Ross Cary, who had been made a knight-banneret for his services during
the memorable expedition to the Isle of Rhé. In the parish register of St. Andrew's, Holborn,
Midx., under the date of 1 Mch. 1640-1, his burial is recorded thus: "Sir Rosse Cary, an Irish
Gent.: died at John Kerlye's, Rose Alley, 28 Feb." Both appear to have died intestate. The
inscription on her gravestone, long hid from sight, is one of the few in the Abbey that have never
been printed, and is therefore here given in full. It reads thus; “Anna Nicolai Hyde Equ.
Aurati | Supremi Angliæ Justitiarij | Filia | Uxor Ross Rossæi Curey | Qui | Optime de patriâ |

Anna reddidit | X° Cal. Aug. | Anno Etatis L. | Salutis M.D.C.LX." As a remarkable
instance of the inexactness and uncertainty of burial registers and monumental inscriptions and
heraldry, it may be noted that in the Abbey Register this lady's name is Caren, and on her tomb-
stone Carey, while her husband's arms, impaled with her own, on the latter, are unmistakably
those of Crewe.
3 Esme Stuart, only son of James, fourth Duke of Lennox and first of Richmond (see his
burial 18 Apl. 1655), by Lady Mary Villiers (see her burial 28 Nov. 1685). He was born in
London 2 Nov. 1649, succeeded his father as second Duke of Richmond and fifth of Lennox, and
died in Paris 10 Aug. 1660. These dates are taken from his coffin-plate, exposed in 1867. The
inscription on his monument (probably inaccurately recut) erroneously states that he died 14 Aug.
1661, in his cleventh year.
4 Prince Henry, fourth and youngest, but third surviving son and eighth child of K. Charles I.
and Q. Henrietta-Maria. He was born at Outlands, Surrey, 6 July 1640, and was created Earl of
Cambridge and Duke of Gloucester 13 May 1644. He was confined in Carisbrook Castle after
his father's death, and subsequently sent out of the kingdom by Cromwell. He returned to
England on the Restoration, and died at Whitehall, of the small-pox, on the 13th of this month.
5 Colonel Thomas Blagge, third but eldest surviving son of Ambrose Blagge, of Little
Horningsherth, co. Suffolk, Esq., by his first wife, Martha, dau. of Roger Barber, of Bury St.
Edmund's, Esq. He was baptized at Horningsherth 13 July 1613. He had been Colonel of a
regiment of foot in the royal army, and particularly distinguished himself in the defence of
Wallingford Castle. He had also been Governor of Yarmouth and Landguard Fort, and a Groom
of the Bedchamber to K. Charles I. and II. He married, at St. Bride's, London, 20 Feb. 1640-1,
Mary, dau. of Sir Roger North, of Mildenhall, co. Suffolk, Kt., who survived him, and died in
1671. Margaret, one of his daughters and coheirs, married Sidney, Earl of Godolphin, Lord High
Treasurer of England (see his burial 8 Oct. 1712). Col. Blagge died 14 Nov. 1660, and was doubt-
less buried during that month,

¹ Eldest dau. and third child of K. Chas. I. and Q. Henrietta-Maria, and born at St. James's
4 Nov. 1631. She married, 2 May 1648, William of Nassau, only son of Henry-Frederick, Prince
of Orange, who succeeded to that title, and died 27 Oct. 1650. Their only issue was William-
Henry, afterwards K. William III. (see his burial 12 Apl. 1702). She died of the small-pox on
the 24th of this month. Her will was dated on the day of her death, and proved on that of her
burial.
2 Third dau. of Robert Bertie, first Earl of Lindsey, by Elizabeth, only dau. and heir of
Edward, first Lord Montagu of Boughton, co. Northampton. She died unmarried, aged about
forty-five.
3 There can be no hesitation in identifying this lady as the wife and relict of Sir Thomas
Aylesbury, Bart., mother of Frances, first Countess of Clarendon, and thus great-grandmother of
Q. Mary II. and Q. Anne. It is possible that the transcriber of the old Register placed the entry
too early in the series of burials in this year, but there can still be no doubt as to the
person
indicated. There was no other Lady Aylesbury at this period, and the place of her interment, as
stated in the text, was the Hyde vault, in which all the members of Lord Clarendon's family
were subsequently interred. Besides, Pepys, in his Diary, under the date of 13 Nov. 1661, states
that the Duke of York was in mourning for his wife's grandmother, which, he adds, was thought
"a great piece of fondness." Hitherto this expression appears to have been regarded as con-
firming certain mythical stories respecting the alleged humble origin of the Duchess of York's
mother, the first Countess of Clarendon ; but it may now be suggested whether it had not
reference to the mourning being continued so long after the death of the person for whom it was
worn, and especially as she must have been in a very advanced old age. It seems strange that
the history of a lady who was the direct ancestress of two of the reigning sovereigns of Great
Britain should have remained to this day in utter obscurity, but even Lady Theresa Lewis, so
late as 1852, wrote, "it is not known from what family she sprang, or where she died." Such
facts, therefore, as the Editor has been able to discover will now be presented in detail. Her
name was Anne, and she was the eldest dau. and coheir of Francis Denman, of West Retford,
Notts, by Anne, dau. of Robert Blount, of Eckington, co. Derby, and relict of Nicholas Towers.
Esquires. Her father was only son of Nicholas Denman, of West Retford, by Anne, dau. of
Humphrey Hercy, of the Grove, Notts, Esq., and second sister and coheir of Sir John Hercy, Kt.
The arms borne by the Denmans of West Retford, viz., Argent, three lions' heads erased gules,
were those of a knightly family of the same name temp. K. Edward I. Francis Denman, the
father of Lady Aylesbury, appears to have been Rector of West Retford from 26 Sep. 1578 to 21
Jan. 1595-6, when he resigned, and was afterwards described as of Old Hall, West Retford,
Esquire. He died in 1599, and was buried at West Retford, his wife surviving him. Their
second dau. and coheir, Barbara, married Edward Darell, Esq., son of Sir Thomas Darell, of
Pagham, Sussex, Kt., and died 22 Mch. 1654-5, leaving, by their only surviving son Edward, a
grandson, Dr. John Darell, who founded a well-known hospital at West Retford. The only other
dau, and cobeir of Francis Denman and Anne his wife was Anne, who married, first, William
Darell (probably a brother or half-brother of her sister Barbara's husband), who died in 1610,
and, secondly, “Thomas Aylesbury, Esq." He is thus described in the marriage allegation, at
the Bishop of London's Registry, dated 3 Oct. 1611, and as of St. Andrew's, Holborn, and also as
having the consent of his father, "William Aylesbury, Esq." She is described as " Anne Darell,
of the city of London, widow, whose husband died about a year ago." (William Aylesbury, the
father, married, first, Anne, dau. of John Poole, of Saperton. co. Gloucester, Esq., by whom he
had issue Edmond, eldest son, who was living 1629-30, with two daughters, Dorothy and Anne ;

Gloucester, Gent., who survived her and died in 1630; and Thomas, second son, who was born in
London about 1576, and was created a Baronet 19 Apl. 1627. He was sometime Master of the
Requests and of the Mint, and, fleeing to the continent after the death of K. Charles I., died at
Breda in 1657. His father, after the death of his first wife Anne, had a license from the Bishop
of London, dated 12 July 1603, he being described as of St. Andrew's, Holborn, Gentleman,
a widower, aged 67, to marry Dorothy Gwillams, widow, aged 60, whose husband, of the same
parish, Gentleman, had died about seven years before.) The children of Sir Thomas Aylesbury
and Anne (Darell née Denman), besides Frances, Countess of Clarendon (sec her burial 17
Aug. 1667), so far as known, were as follows: William, eldest child, who was baptized at St.
Margaret's, Westminster, 13 July 1612, and who died in Jamaica in 1657, being then secretary to
the Governor of that island; Thomas, second son, baptized at St. Margaret's 15 Dec. 1613, of
whom nothing further has been ascertained, and who probably died young; Anne, baptized at
St. Margaret's 28 Dec. 1615, and married there, 24 Apl. 1637, to Mr. John Brigham; and
Barbara, baptized at St. Margaret's 9 May 1627 (and doubtless named after her mother's only
sister), who died unmarried, at Antwerp, in 1652. (The date of her baptism, it will be seen,
varies exactly a year from the note in the Duchess of York's pocket-book quoted by Lady Theresa
Lewis, viz., "My dear Aunt Bab was, when she died, twenty-four years old and as much as from
April to August.") It appears, therefore, that the hitherto mysterious ancestress of Qucens
Mary and Anne was of pure gentle descent and honourable connections, and that the ridiculous
traditions respecting her and her daughter had no foundation in fact. As the record of her
burial is distinctly under the year 1661, it may be regarded as certain that it was after the 25th
of March, and it may, as has been said, have been later in the year.
1 Eldest dau. and coheir of Richard Rogers, of Bryanston, co. Dorset, Esq., by Anne, dau. of
Sir Thomas Cheeke, Kt. She married, first, Hon. Charles Cavendish, son of William, first Duke
of Newcastle; and, secondly, Charles Stuart, third Duke of Richmond and sixth of Lennox (sce
his burial 20 Sep. 1673), to whom she was first wife. She died (according to her coffin-plate,
exposed in 1867) on the 21st of April, in childbed, and was barely, if quite, eighteen years of age.
See her daughter's burial 28 Mch. 1662.
2 Eldest son of James, then Duke of York, afterwards K. James II., by his first wife, Anne
Hyde, eldest dau. of Edward, first Earl of Clarendon (see her burial 5 Apl. 1671). He was born
22 Oct. 1660, and declared Duke of Cambridge, but died before the patent passed the Great Scal.
He died on the 5th of May.
3 First wife of Dr. William Quatermain, Physician in Ordinary to K. Charles II. Hc matri-
culated at Oxford, from Brasenose College, 10 Oct. 1634, aged sixteen, as son of Walter Quater-

Sir Thomas Dyke, Kt., and grand-daughter of Sir John Bramston, Chief Justice of the King's

marriage recorded at St. Bride's, London, 2 Apl. 1649, of "George Jay, Minister, and Martha
Manning," probably refers to him.
¹ In his will, dated 11 Apl. 1660, and proved, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 29
Nov. 1661, by his "dear, loving, and loyal wife Mrs. Martha Wytham," he is described as
"Thomas Wytham, of Petty France, Westminster, Esq." He left all his property to his wife,
with remainder to his dau. Mary, then wife of Richard Willoughby, of Gray's Inn, Esq.
2 He was sworn as a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal in ordinary 29 June 1619, and succeeded
to the next vacancy 20 July 1620. In the Cheque Book he is described as "a Base from St. Paul's,"
and as in holy orders. He was sworn Confessor to His Majesty's Household in June 1660, and
died 25 Nov. 1661, being succeeded in that office by Rev. Philip Tynchare, the preserver of the
old Abbey Register.
3 Nicholas Monk (or, as the name appears to have been uniformly written, Moncke), third
son of Sir Thomas Monk, of Potheridge, co. Devon, Kt., by Elizabeth, dau. of Sir George Smith.
He was born about 1609, and appears to have been a quiet country clergyman, until the influence
of his brother, the Duke of Albemarle (see his burial 29 Apl. 1670) secured his rapid advance-
ment. He became Provost of Eton College in June 1660, and on the 1st of Aug. in that year
was created D.D. at Oxford, by royal command. He was elected Bishop of Hereford 1 Dec.
following, and was consecrated 13 Jan. 1660-1. He died at his lodgings in the Old Palace
at Westminster 17 Dec. following. His will, dated the day before his death, was proved
13 Mch. 1661-2, by his relict Susanna, who was dau. of Thomas Payne, of Plymtrec, co. Devon,
Esq., by whom he left only two daughters, Mary and Elizabeth. A monument was erected in
the Abbey to his memory, in 1723, by his grandson, Christopher Rawlinson, of Cark, co.
Lancaster, Esq.
4 Dau. of Sir Henry Carey, fourth Baron Hunsdon and first Earl of Dover, by his first wife,
Judith, dau. of Sir Thomas Pelham, of Laughton, Sussex, Bart. If the date in the text is
correct, she must have died the same day, or the day before, as her will, dated 11 Sep. 1657, con-
tains a nuncupative codicil, the date of which is 26 Dec. 1661. It was proved 10 Jan. following,
by her sister Lady Judith Carcy. She died unmarried, aged about forty.
5 Mary, dau. and heir of Edward Langford, of Trowbridge, Wilts, Esq., and relict of Henry
Iyde, of Purton in the same county. They were parents of Edward Hyde, first Earl of Clarendon,
then Lord Chancellor (see his burial 4 Jan. 1674-5). Her husband died 29 Sep. 1632, aged
sixty-uine.
• Probably a brother, or a son by a former wife, of Aldam Frame (see his burial 3 Mch.

forbidden to sell beer and pies on the premises. See his wife's burial 9 Feb. following. Letters
of administration to his estate were granted, by the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 2 Feb. 1662-3,
to William Hooper, curator assigned to his minor children Anne, John, Emme and Edward.

Duke of Bavaria and Elector Palatine of the Rhine, afterwards elected King of Bohemia, who
was driven from his dominions by the Emperor Ferdinand, and died at Mentz 29 Nov. 1632.

of Leicester 16 Oct. 1641; admitted Master of Trinity College, Cambridge, 3 Aug. 1660; installed
Dean of Ely 12 Mch. 1660-1; and consecrated Bishop of Chester in Feb. 1661-2. He died the
fifth Sunday after his consecration, on the 16th of March, at the house of his mother's step-son,
Mr. Thomas Nevill, then a draper in St. Paul's Churchyard, in his fifty-ninth year. His will, dated
in 1659, in which he called himself "Professor of Divinity, now dwelling at Sandbeck, co. York,"
was not proved, in consequence of some legal contention, until 30 May 1663.

5 A young child of Sir George Lane, afterwards second Bart., and created Viscount

By his
first wife, Dorcas, dau. of Sir Anthony Brabazon, Kt., he had second and third daughters,
Anne-Dorcas and Anne, who both died in infancy. Their elder sister, Charlotte, was born
28 Aug. 1658.
6 Various errors have crept into the accounts of the personal history of this distinguished
prelate, some of which may be now positively corrected. He was not born at Greenwich, and
was not the son of Rev. Geoffrey Duppa, Vicar of Lewisham, Kent, by a daughter of Rev. John
Bungay, LL.D., Prebendary of Canterbury. According to his own will, he was born at Lewisham,
and the register of that parish records his baptism on the 18th of Mch. 1588-9. This date is
confirmed by the record of his matriculation at Oxford, 9 July, 1605, in which his age is given
as sixteen, i. c., at his last birthday. His father was not Vicar of Lewisham, nor a clergyman.
In the Oxford matriculation register he is called a " Gentleman," and in the Bishop's deed of
foundation of a charity at Pembridge, co. Hereford, dated 15 Oct. 1661, he is described as
"Jeffrey Duppa, Esquire, my late father." As to his mother, Dr. Bungay's will, dated 27 Oct.
1595, names no daughter married to Duppa, and evidently mentions all his children, while the
Lewisham register records the marriage there, in 1580, of "Jeffery Duppa and Lucrece Marcsall,"
who were undoubtedly his parents; but, after the most careful search, no trace of their subse-
quent history and fate has been discovered. Having taken the degree of D.D. at Oxford in 1625,
he was installed Dean of Christ Church 28 Nov. 1629; became a Prebendary of Salisbury 21 May
1634, and Chancellor 7 June following; Rector of Petworth, Sussex, 19 May 1638; was conse-
crated Bishop of Chichester 17 June 1638; confirmed Bishop of Salisbury 14 Dec. 1641, and of
Winchester 4 Oct. 1660. He died at Richmond, Surrey, 26 Mch. 1662, and his will, dated the
preceding 4th of Feb., was proved 16 May following. See his wife's burial 30 Oct. 1665.

Prebendary of Westminster 9 Nov. 1631. He had been Chaplain to K. Charles I., and his
preferments, of which he had been deprived during the Commonwealth, were restored to him
on the return of K. Charles II. He died 8 May, and his relict Letitia (see her burial 17 Mch.

him.

Probably the first wife of Sir George Juxon, of Canterbury, who was knighted in June
1663. (He married, first, at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 12 Apl. 1654, Dorothy, dau. of Robert
Purdy of Suffolk, and widow of a Mr. Harvey, and, secondly, Anne, dau. of Sir Dudley Diggs. of
Chilham Castle, Kent, Kt. Letters of administration to his estate were granted 22 Aug. 1666.
By his first wife he had a dau. Frances, whose will, dated 29 June 1717. was proved 19 Mch.
1725-6. She died unmarried, and at the date of her will was of the Archbishop's palace,
Canterbury.) It seems impossible to identify her with any other person in the Juxon pedigree.
3 Third son of Henry Sterrell, of the Middle Temple, Esq., by Margaret his wife, and born
about 1610. He was the Abbey Surveyor, or Clerk of the Works. Baptisms and burials of twelve
children, by his two wives, Mary and Prudence, occur in the registers of St. Margaret's, West-
minster, from 18 May 1633 to 4 July 1659, and his first wife, Mary, was buried there 17 Oct.
1646.
4 There was a family of this name in Yorkshire. Stephen Weelks, of Fountains Park, Gent.,
was buried in Ripon Cathedral in 1667. He was descended from a family at Sawley in that
county.

Gentleman of the Chapel 3 Nov. 1626, and was afterwards, and at his death, Clerk of the Cheque.
He died 21 Oct. His will, dated 14 Oct., was proved 2 Dec. 1662, by bis relict Elinor, who, before
1667, remarried John Trowte. He appears to have left no issue, but made a handsome provision
for the dau. of his brother John (see his burial 19 Jan. 1654-5) and her children. He bequeathed
to Francis Sambrooke, of Westminster, Gent., one of his executors, several of his "viols," and

of Westminster 28 Sep. 1638. He suffered great hardships during the Commonwealth, having at
last to fly from London, and for some time kept a private school in Wiltshire, in the name of his
son; but recovered all his preferments after the Restoration. His will, dated 12 July, was proved
26 Aug. 1663, by his relict Alice (see her burial 10 Nov. 1675). He left no issue save an only
son (see his burial 2 Mch. 1663-4). He left legacies to the two daughters of his brother Edmond,
two sons of his brother Thomas, two sons of his brother Henry, his sister Ann Burt, and three
children of his sister Mary Atty.
1 Thomas Baltzar, a native of Lubeck, in Germany. He came to England in 1658, and was
esteemed the most famous violinist of his time, but destroyed himself prematurely by excessive
intemperance. Anthony Wood, in one of his MSS., has this characteristic note of him: “Dr.
Wilson, the music professor, the greatest judge of music that ever was, did, first of all, after he
had heard him play, stoop down to Baltzar's feet, to feel whether he had a Huff on, that is, to
see whether he was not a Devil.”

of the tablets in the dormitory among those of the Captains of Elections, at the probable date
of 1662. See the burial (probably of his sister) 5 Nov. 1664. They were perhaps children of
Thomas, second Lord Colepeper, Gent. of the Privy Chamber to K. Charles II., by his wife
Margaret, dau. and coheir of Seigneur Jean de Hesse, whom he had married in Germany.
4 Probably an infant dau. of Sir William Basset (see his burial 24 Sep. 1667) whose mar-

5 He had a patent from the Dean and Chapter, 6 Dec. 1617, as Chief Baker, and still occu-
pied that post 26 Sep. 1660, when the Chapter Book records his application for £120 arrears since
1650. His brother, Peter Chapman, had been Head Brewer. His will, in which he is described
as of Westminster, Gentleman, dated 13 Oct. 1663, with codicils 26 Nov. 1663 and 9 Jan. 1663-4, .
was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 19 Jan. 1663-4, by his second wife and relict,
Margaret. He left six daughters, all then married; the eldest, Mary, to Anthony Sturt, Esq. See

9 His name first occurs as a Gent. of the Chapel Royal on the occasion of the Coronation of

date of 1 Feb.: "I hear how two men last night, justling for the wall about the new Exchange,
did kill one another, cach thrusting the other through; one of them of the King's Chapel, one
Cave, and the other a retayner of my Lord Generall Middleton's." The old Cheque Book of the

of ye clock in the evening, about the new Exchange, was by one James Elliott, a Scott, run
through the body, of which wound he departed this life the 16th day of February following,
1663."
1 He had a patent as one of the bell-ringers 14 Aug. 1660. See the baptism of his dau. 14
Mch. 1663-4, and her burial 16 Sep. 1664.
2 He entered Christ Church, Oxford, 1 Apl. 1656, as a servitor, and was B.A. 1 Nov. 1659,
and M.A. 15 July 1662. He was sworn a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal 14 Nov. 1662, being
then in holy orders, and died (according to the Cheque Book) 27 Feb. 1663-4.
3 Elizabeth, dau. of Sir Charles Berkeley, Kt. (who succeeded his son Charles as second
Viscount Fitzharding in the Irish pecrage), by Penelope, dau. of Sir William Godolphin, of
Godolphin, co. Cornwall. Her name is not mentioned in any of the accounts of her family, but
her father, who administered to her estate 22 Mch. 1663-4, is particularly described and identi-
fied in the record of administration, and her children are afterwards named in the wills of her
brothers and sister. She is improperly called in the text "The Lady Bridgeman," and is not so
styled in the record of administration. Her father did not succced to the viscountcy until 1665,
and it is probable that the title was inadvertently applied to her as being a sister of the then
Earl of Falmouth. Her husband was John Bridgeman, of Prinknash, co. Gloucester, Gent.
(eldest son of George Bridgeman, of Nympsfield, co. Gloucester, Esq., who was eldest son of Sir
John Bridgeman, Kt., Chief Justice of Chester) and was living in 1656. She left two sons, John
and Charles, who were living, respectively, as late as 1714 and 1718. Sec the burials of her
brothers and sister, 22 June 1665, Aug. 1666, 26 Dec. 1712, and 25 June 1718.
4 See his father's burial 17 July 1663, and his mother's 10 Nov. 1675. He was baptized at

He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church, 28 Mch. 1655, became a Fellow of Oriel College,
and was M.A. 28 May 1661. He died 22 Feb.
5 He is described on his monument as of Elmley-Lovett, co. Worcester, late of Christ Church,
Oxford, Bachelor of Arts, and said to have died 10 Mch., of the small-pox, in his 27th year. One
of this name matriculated at Oxford, 31 July 1658, as son of a minister, and another 19 July
1659, as a servitor, both from Christ Church: one was B.A. 16 Jan. 1660-1, and the other 19
Mch. 1662-3.
6 See the marriage of her parents 21 Nov. 1656.
7 He was in holy orders, and his name, as Gcorge Lowe, first appears in the Cheque Book of

Book, on the preceding day.

Westminster 23 July 1660, and became Rector of St. Andrew's, Holborn, 4 Jan, 1662-3. The
register of that parish records his death on the 18th of October. His will, dated the 10th, was
proved 22 Oct. 1661, by his relict Elizabeth, who, according to her arms on his hatchment. tricked
in a herald painter's work-book (Harl. MS. 1045, p. 52), was of the family of Bromfield, of

during the fight with the Dutch off Lowestoft, while commanding his ship the " Old James,” as
is usually said on the 3rd of this month, but an old herald painter's work-book (Harl. MS. 1045,
p. 54), in which the arms for his hatchment are tricked, says that he died 4 June 1665. His will,

secondly, Robert Villiers, called Viscount Purbeck, and, thirdly, Robert Feilding, Esq. His only
son, Charles, succeeded his grandfather, as second Earl of Clancarty, but died young, and his

and Viscount Fitzharding, in the Irish peerage, and, 17 Mch. 1664-5, a peer of England, as Baron
Botetourt, of Langport, co. Somerset, and Earl of Falmouth. He married Mary, dau. of
Col. Hervey Bagot, of Pipe Hall, co. Warwick, who remarried Charles Sackville, sixth Earl of
Dorset, and died in 1679. He was killed in a naval engagement with the Dutch, 3 June (sce note

Esquire." In the record of administration to his estate, 28 July 1665, he is styled “Kt. and
Bart."; but in subsequent proceedings in the Court of Probate he is described as a Knight only.
His will, which appears to have been discovered later, was dated 21 Oct. 1664, and not proved
until 16 Dee. 1669, and in that he called bimself only a knight. (To complicate the matter further,
his only surviving son, in the record of administration to his estate, 5 May 1738, is described as
"Sir Edward Broughton, Bart., alias Edward Broughton, Esq.") He was mortally wounded in
the sea-fight with the Dutch, 3 June, but lived to reach his home in Westminster (see the note
following the entry in the text). He held, under the Dean and Chapter, the office of Keeper of
the Gate-House prison (see the burial of his second wife, 19 Mch. 1694-5, for some curious details
respecting his connection with that establishment). He had three sons baptized at St. Margaret's.

The two latter evidently died in infancy.
1 Sixth son of John Killigrew, Lord of Arwenick, co. Cornwall, by Dorothy, dau. of Thomas
Monke, of Potheridge, co. Devon, and born in 1600. He appears to have been knighted, probably
abroad, and was created a Bart., as of Arwenick, 22 Dec. 1660, with remainder to his nephew
Peter, son of his brother Sir Peter Killigrew, Kt. He was a great soldier, Colonel of a regiment in
Holland, and served the King of Denmark. He died unmarried. His will, dated the 15th, with
a codicil 24 June 1665, was not proved until 4 Sep. 1668.
2 A Sir Henry Carey, Kt., had a license from the Bishop of London, 16 May 1663, to marry
Martha Andrews, of St. Giles in the Fields, spinster, aged 30. He was described as also of that
parish, and a widower, aged forty-six. His son Edward was buried there 13 Jan. 1661-2. No
will or administration is to be found of either. See a burial 16 Aug. 1667.
3 Her will, as “Jane Duppa, of Richmond, Surrey, widow, relict of Bryan, late Lord Bishop
of Winchester," dated 15 Oct. 1664, was proved 9 Nov. 1665, by her "cousin Henry Mallory, Esq.,”
her "sister Elizabeth Marsh, widow." and her friend and cousin Sir Richard Chaworth, Kt.”
She bequeathed £10 to the poor of Papworth, co. Huntingdon, where she was born; the same sum
to the poor of St. Dionis Backchurch, London, where she was "so happily married"; and £20 to
the poor of St. Nicholas, Lynn, co. Norfolk, where many of her friends lived. The register of
St. Dionis Backchurch records the marriage, 23 Nov. 1626, of " Brian Duppa and Jane Chillinge-
ton"; but that of Papworth, although in good preservation, does not once furnish this surname :
that of Willington occurs repeatedly, from 1567 to 1610, but no baptism of a Jane Willington is
recorded. It is possible, therefore, that she was a widow at the time of her marriage to
Dr. Duppa. There is nothing in her will, nor in that of her sister Marsh, to indicate their
paternity. She made several charitable bequests, including one of £10 per annum for ever to
the almshouses at Richmond founded by her husband.
4 He had a patent from the Dean and Chapter, 11 Jan. 1631-2, as Chief Butler, succeeding his
uncle of the same names in that office, and another as Chief Verger 13 May 1635. (His uncle
described himself in his will as a gentleman, and a native of Barthomley, co. Chester, and left
this nephew his residuary legatce and executor. From his will, dated 27 Dec. 1631, and proved
2 Jan. 1631-2, it is quite certain that he was also buried in the Abbey Cloisters, but his name
does not appear in the Register, which is very defective at that period. He left three brothers,
viz. John, Richard, and Randall Merrell, one of whose sons this Thomas probably was.) His
nuncupative will, made about June 1665, was proved 16 Jan. 1665-6, by his kinsman and
residuary legatec, Richard Lawton.

the Court of K. Charles I. by Bishop Duppa. He had a grant of arms in 1664. He died suddenly,
according to Pepys, on the 8th of April. His relict, Dorothy (see her burial 3 Apl. 1680) admin-
istered to his estate 21 April 1666. Their son, Thomas, who was baptized at St. Margaret's,
Westminster, 25 Nov. 1637, became one of the Searchers at Gravesend, and died 31 Jan. 1680-1.
(The more notorious pander to K. Charles II., William Chiffinch, was a brother of the one named
n the text, and succeeded to his offices as Page and Closet Keeper.)
2 John Burridge. He is described in his will, dated 1 June and proved 7 July 1666, as of
St. Martin in the Fields, citizen and merchant taylor of London. He mentioned his late wife,
and left legacies to his brother Luke Burridge, his sister Alice Bayley, his aunt Boyce, his cousin
Richard Boyce, his cousin Mary Boyce dau. of Richard and Barbara Boyce, and his sister-in-law
Joan Mekins. His residuary legatce and executor was his friend John Staley, senior, of St.
Paul's, Covent Garden, goldsmith.
³ He is described in his will, dated 9 July and proved 1 Sep. 1666, as of St. Paul's, Covent
Garden, taylor. He left brothers Christopher, William and Thomas, sons John and Thomas,

Kt. He was Governor of Portsmouth, and Vice-Admiral of the White. He was slain in a sea-
fight with the Dutch, 3 June, while commanding his own ship the Swiftsure. The Dutch so
admired his gallantry that they had his body embalmed and deposited in state in the great
church at the Hague, and sent a special messenger to England to place it at the King's disposal.
He died unmarried, aged only about 27. A creditor administered to his estate 2 July 1666. Sce

4 Mch., in his 57th year. His will, dated 20 Feb., was proved 30 Apl. 1667. He left two brothers,
Thomas and Robert, cach with a son William. (Collectanea erroneously calls him "Almoner,"

afterwards K. James II., by his first wife, Lady Anne Hyde, dau. of Edward, first Earl of
Clarendon (see her burial 5 Apl. 1671). He was born 4 July 1666, and died at St. James's

1667, by his relict Susan (who survived him until 1679) and his son Walter. He left other
issue. He bequeathed lands in Oadby, co. Leicester. In his will he stated that his tomb-stone,
with the characteristic inscription (sce Dart, ii. 126), was already prepared and paid for at a
stone-cutter's in St. Andrew's, Holborn.

(sec her burial 5 Apl. 1671). In the record of his baptism, at St. Martin in the Fields, 22 July
1663, he is stated to have been born on the 11th of that month, but Mrs. Dawson's Diary
(Reliquiæ Hearnianæ, cdit. 1869, i. 270) says that he was born "twenty-two minutes past one in
the morning, on July 12, 1663." He died at the Palace at Richmond 20 June 1667.

that they were drowned.

4 Abraham Cowley, the well known poet, usually said to have been the posthumous son of a
grocer, and born in Flect Street, near Chancery Lane. There are good reasons to doubt the
accuracy of these statements. which comprise all that is ever said by any of the biographers of
Cowley in regard to his origin. There appears to be no doubt that he was a posthumous child,
and that he died in his 49th year all accounts concur as to the former, and the latter was in-
scribed on his monument erected by the Duke of Buckingham. He died, at the l'orch House, in
Chertsey, Surrey, 28 July 1667, and consequently his birth must have occurred after the 28th of
July 1618. Now there will be found among the wills in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury one
of Thomas Conley, who described himself as a citizen and stationer of London, and of the parish
of St. Michael le Quern. It was dated 24 July 1618, and was proved 11 Aug. following by his
relict Thomasinc. In it occurs this passage: "Whereas God hath blessed me with six children,
besides the child or children which my wife Thomasine now goeth withal, viz., Peter, Audrey,
John, William, Katherine, and Thomas, I give to each, and to the child or children my wife now
goeth withal, £140, at the age of twenty-one or marriage," etc. The date of this will, and the
fact that the poet was born after that date in the same year-admitting the improbability of
similar circumstances occurring in another family of this uncommon name at this precise period
-seem to point conclusively to the testator as his father. But there is other evidence. This
Thomas Cowley appointed, as one of the overseers of his will, his brother-in-law IIumphrey
Clarke. Abraham Cowley, the poet, in his will, dated 18 Sep. 1665 and proved 31 Aug. 1667,
made his brother Thomas his sole heir and executor, and in the will of this Thomas Cowley. also
of Chertsey, dated 20 May and proved 1 Sep. 1669, the first direction is that the legacies given
by his late dear brother Abraham Cowley in his last will, and not yet paid, be at once discharged.
It is certain, therefore, that the poet and this last Thomas Cowley were brothers; and that the
latter was a son of the Thomas Cowley who died in 1618, the fact that he bequeathed £200 to
his cousin Humphrey Clarke affords at least probable evidence, which is strengthened by the
fact that he also bequeathed £100 to the Stationers' Company. And again, neither the burial of

Thomas Cowley, senior, nor of any Cowley, nor the baptism of Abraham, occurs in the parish
register of St. Dunstan in the West, in the year 1618, or anywhere about that time, and it is
there that they should be found, if the poet's father was "a grocer in Fleet Street near Chancery
Lane." The early registers of St. Michael le Quern are unfortunately lost, so that no data can
be obtained from them; but it seems from the foregoing facts almost, if not quite, certain that
the poet was the posthumous son of Thomas Cowley, citizen and stationer of London, and
Thomasine his wife.
It is proper and just to add that Mr. Peter Cunningham, in his edition of Dr. Johnson's
Lives of the Poets (Murray, 1854, i. 3, etc.), first called attention to the error, and gave Cowley's
true parentage, but without any corroborative evidence, which probably has induced subsequent
writers to ignore his discovery. There was also an important error in his abstract of the father's
will, which gave the poet a brother Andrew, instead of a sister Audrey, and thus led to the
further misstatement that he had an "only sister Katherine."
Cowley was educated at Westminster School, became a Scholar of Trinity College, Cam-
bridge, in 1636, and was a Fellow of that house in 1642. He was created M.D., at Oxford, 2 Dec.
1657.
This entry in the text shows pointedly the necessity of a revision of that portion of the
Abbey Register printed in Collectanca. In that work the date of burial is given as "the 17th
of August," and the place of interment as "at the foot of the steps to Henry 7th's Chapel."
It will be seen that in Collectanea the entry relating to Cowley, and that respecting the
Countess of Clarendon (see her burial on the 17th), were jumbled together, her name being
omitted altogether. This mutilated entry misled the editor of Pepys's Diary (see his note sub
10 Aug. 1667) into making a charge of inaccuracy against Evelyn, who stated in his Diary that
he attended Cowley's funeral on the 3rd of August. Evelyn was strictly correct. Pepys. how-
ever, only learned on the 10th of August that Cowley was dead, although he had been buried,
in great state, a full week before!

9 Dr. Triplett (see his burial in July 1670), in his will dated 21 Jan. 1668-9. bequeathed

11 His will, dated 12 Jan., was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter 17 Feb. 1668-9,

¹ Only son of Sir John Denham, Kt., successively Chief Baron of the Exchequer and Chief
Justice of the King's Bench in Ireland, and Baron of the Exchequer in England, by his second
wife, Eleanor, dau. of Garrett, first Viscount Moore, of Drogheda, and was born at Dublin in
1615. He matriculated at Oxford, from Trinity College, 18 Nov. 1631. On account of his
eminence as a poet, and in consideration of his faithful service to the royal house, he was created
a Knight of the Bath at the Coronation of K. Charles II. He married, first, at St. Bride's, Fleet
Street, London, 25 June, 1634, then only nineteen years of age, Anne, dau. of Daniel Cotton, of
Whittington, co. Gloucester, Esq., by Elizabeth, dau. of Sir George Tipping, of Oxfordshire. See
his second marriage, in the Abbey, 25 May 1665. His will, dated 13 Mch. 1668-9, was proved
9 May 1670, by his dau. Elizabeth. One bequest is worthy of notice. Stating that he was
"Surveyor-General for the rebuilding of St. Paul's Church, London," he gave all his fees, being
twenty shillings per day, "towards that noble and pious work," and also £100" as a further
remembrance of affection to the same."
2 Her nuncupative will, made about 25 June, was proved in the Court of the Dean and
Chapter, 31 July 1669, by her mother Dorothy Watts, to whom she left all she possessed.
3 Younger son of Richard Stapylton, of Carlton, co. York, Esq., by Elizabeth, dau. of Sir
Henry Pierrepoint, Kt. He was educated at Douay, but returned to England and became a Pro-
testant, and was a dramatic poet of some note. He was knighted by K. Charles I., at Nottingham,
13 Sep. 1642, and was with him at the battle of Edgehill. He was also one of the Gentlemen
Ushers of the Privy Chamber to K. Charles II., both when Prince of Wales and after his
restoration. He died 11 July. His will, dated 11 June, was proved 29 July 1669, by Elizabeth
Simpson, of Westminster, widow, to whom he left the bulk of his estate (although he had a wife
living, whom he barely mentioned), in consideration, as he said, of the great care she had
taken of him during his long illness. (He is said to have married a Mrs. Hammond, widow, née
Mainwaring.)
4 Sir Thomas Howard, second son of Thomas, first Earl of Suffolk, by his second wife,
Catherine, eldest dau. and coheir of Sir Henry Kncvet, of Charlton, Wilts, Kt., and widow of
Richard Rich, Esq. He was created, 23 Jan. 1621-2, Baron Howard of Charlton, and Viscount
Andover, installed K.G. 13 Dec. 1625, and advanced to the Earldom of Berkshire 7 Feb. 1625-6.

died 3 Feb. Her son Lionel, Earl of Middlesex, administered to her estate 12 June 1670, under

3 Probably a child of William Cavendish, afterwards fourth Earl and first Duke of Devon-

fifth Earl of Exeter, by Annc, dau. of William, third Earl of Devonshire, named Christian, Anne
and Frances, who all died young.
4
Anne, reputed dau. of John Clarges (or Clargis, as the name is written in his will), a
farrier in the Savoy, by his wife Anne Leaver. She married, first, at St. Laurence-Pountney,
London, 28 Feb. 1632-3, Thomas Radford (or Redford, as the name is written in her father's
will), also said to have been a farrier, but afterwards a servant to Prince Charles, residing in the
Mews, in St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., from whom she separated in 1649, but of whose death.
before her second marriage no evidence appears to have been obtained. (It was probably his father
who, as "Thomas Redford, farrier, servant to Prince Charles," was buried at St. Martin in the
Fields 20 Nov. 1624.) She married, secondly, 23 Jan. 1652-3, at St. George's, Southwark, co. Surrey,
General George Monk, afterwards created Duke of Albemarle (see his burial 29 Apl. 1670). She died
29 Jan., more than three weeks after her husband (although he was not buried until three months
later), said to be aged 54. (Her father, whose will was dated 20 Dec. 1648 and proved 1 Jan.
following, left her £30, and made her joint executrix with her brother Thomas, who was after-
wards knighted.)

(see his burial 5 Nov. 1681), and died two days before in childbed of a dau. Elizabeth, who was
baptized at St. Giles in the Fields the day after her mother's burial, and buried there 20 July
1671. An elder dau., Christiana, was also baptized there, 25 Jan. 1668-9, who survived her

created Duke of Albemarle 7 July 1660. He died the preceding 3rd of January. His will,
dated 8 June 1665, was proved 3 Jan. 1669-70, the very day of his death. See the burials, of his
brother 20 Dec. 1661, his wife 28 Feb. 1669-70, and his son 4 July 1689.
2 According to his monument, he was son of Anthony Blount, Gent., and died 6 May, aged
18 years. He was admitted into Westminster School in 1667.

his first wife, Hon. Penelope Needham (see her burial 22 Mch. 1669-70).
4 See burials 25 Feb. 1674-5 and 14 Dec. 1677, evidently of children of the same parents,
probably minor officials or servants about the Abbey. The surname, according to the monument

5 Probably a minor official or servant connected with the Abbey. See marriages 6 Nov. 1679
and 1 Jan. 1688-9, and burials 24 Apl. 1678, 14 Dec. 1682, and 4 Mch. 1685-6, probably all of

Jones, of St. Paul's, Covent Garden, tailor, husband of her dau. Anne.

⁹ Said by Anthony Wood to have been born in Oxford or its vicinity, but he matriculated
from Christ Church 16 Mch. 1620-1, aged 18, as of London, and son of a gentleman. He was
installed Prebendary of York 2 Sep. 1641, and of Salisbury 6 Oct. 1645, and was collated to a
stall at Durham 20 Mch. 1648-9, but not then installed. During the Commonwealth he taught
school at Dublin, and at Hayes, co. Midx. After the Restoration, he was installed at Durham 2
Nov. 1660, and resumed his other stalls. He was created D.D. at Oxford 1 Apl. 1661, and 20
Jan. following installed Prebendary of Westminster, and was Sub-dean at his death. He is said
to have died on the 18th of July, and the unofficial register gives that as the date of his burial.
His will, dated 21 Jan. 1668-9, was proved 12 Aug. 1670. His residuary legatces were his sister,
Mrs. Katharine Warne, then residing in Ireland, and her three children.

Hatton, K.B. (see his burial 11 Sep. 1619), by Alice, eldest dau. of Thomas Fanshawe, of Ware

co. Essex, 11 July 1605. He was created K.B. at the Coronation of K. Charles I., and Barou
Hatton, of Kirby, co. Northampton, 29 July 1643. He died at Kirby 4 July 1670, and his son
Christopher administered to his estate on the 21st of the same month. See the burials, of
(probably) his wife 11 Jan. 1672-3, and of his children Nov. 1638, 2 Oct. 1639, 16 Feb. 1641-2, and

estate equally.
2 Mary, dau. of Rev. Samuel Fell, D.D., Dean of Christ Church, by Margaret, dau. of Thomas
Wylde, Esq. She was the first wife of Dr. Thomas Willis, the most eminent physician of his day,
and their marriage is thus recorded in the parish register of St. Michael, city of Oxford,
under the date of 7 Apl. 1657: "Thomas Willis, of Christ Church in Oxford, M.B., and Mrs.
Mary Fell, of Hereford; married by one of the Hereford Justices." She was grandmother of the
no less famous Browne Willis, the antiquary. See her husband's burial 18 Nov. 1675. According
to her monument, she died 31 Oct., and was buried in the same grave with her dau. Catherine,
who was born 5 Feb. 1662-3, and buried 30 Sep. 1667, but of which no record occurs in the
Abbey Register. There is, however, no doubt about the fact, as in addition to the evidence of
the monument, her father in his will directed that he should be buried in the Abbey near his
wife and daughter.
3 Sce a marriage 21 Nov. 1656.
4 In the unofficial register only. Probably a minor official or servant about the Abbey; but
a Thomas Bales, Esq., was a Gent. of the Privy Chamber to K. Charles II. in 1669.
5 Son of Edward Thornburgh, Esq. (third son of Sir Thomas Thornburgh, of Elmley Lovett,
co. Worcester, Kt.), by Mary, his second wife, eldest dau. of John Fox, Esq., Clerk of the Acatry
to K. Charles II. (see his burial 23 Nov. 1691). He was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster,
9 Nov. 1669. His father appears to have also died about this time, or soon after, as his mother
was remarried, at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, 25 Apl. 1672, to John Rawkins, of St. Martin in
the Fields, Gent. See the burial of a child of that marriage 5 Feb. 1673-4.
The place of interment sufficiently indicates the humble rank of the father, as it appears
to have been appropriated exclusively to the lower order of officials or menial servants about the
Abbey.
7 Natural son of George Villiers, second Duke of Buckingham, by the infamous Countess of
Shrewsbury. The following passage in a letter from Andrew Marvell, dated 9 Aug. 1671, suffi-
ciently identifics him: "Buckingham runs out of all with the Lady Shrewsbury, by whom he
believes he had a son, to whom the King stood godfather: it died young Earl of Coventry, and
was buried in the sepulchre of his fathers " (Works of Andrew Marvell, edit. 1776, i. 407.) Of
course he was not Earl of Coventry, as the legitimate Duchess of Buckingham was then
living.
* Lady Anne Hyde, eldest dau. of Edward, first Earl of Clarendon (see his burial 4 Jan. 1674-5)
by his second wife, Frances, dau. of Sir Thomas Aylesbury, Bart. (see her burial 17 Aug. 1667).
She was born at Cranborne Lodge, near Windsor. 22 Mch. 1637-8, and was married to James,
Duke of York (afterwards King James II.), at Breda, in Brabant, 24 Nov. 1659, the ceremony
being subsequently repcated in England, at Worcester House, 3 Sep. 1660. She died at St. James's
Palace 31 Mch. 1671. She was mother of Q. Mary II. and Q. Anne: see their burials 5 Mch.
1694-5 and 24 Aug. 1714, and the burials of her other children, 6 May 1661, 30 May and 26 June

(This entry does not occur in either the official or unofficial Register, but on a loose slip of
paper, of which there are several in the chirography of the period, evidently notes from which
the clerk transcribed his official entries. All the others occur in their appropriate places in the
Register. From the minuteness of the description, especially of the precise place of interment,
there seems no doubt that the burial took place in the Abbey, but from some cause the clerk
neglected to record it. The matter for wonder is that this loose slip of paper has been preserved
so long that now, after a lapse of two complete centuries, its contents can be placed permanently
on record.) She was third dau. of John, second Lord Lovelace, by Lady Anne, afterwards
Baroness Wentworth, and was married in 1660 to Sir William Noel, second Bart. of Kirkby-
Mallory, co. Leicester. Through her second son, John, she was ancestress of the late Lady Byron,
wife and widow of the celebrated poct. Her husband remarried, in 1672, Frances, third dau.
of Humble, Lord Ward, and died 13 Apl. 1675, in his thirty-third year.
2 Her will, as Blanch Thomas, of Tredonocke, co. Monmouth, widow, dated 2 Apl., was
proved 31 May 1671, by her brother William Morgan (see, probably, his burial 1 Feb. 1682-3).
Her only son, William, to whom she bequeathed her estate in Lanwerne, co. Monmouth, died

her sister Alice Stedder, and her sister Margaret.

first husband was a Beauvoir. He was for twenty years resident at Brussels, and was created a
Baronet 3 Sep. 1619. In Sep. 1660 he was appointed Secretary for the French tongue and
Chancellor of the Order of the Garter, and in 1662 he was Comptroller of the Household to the
Duke of York. According to Anthony Wood, he was created M.D. at Oxford, 28 Sep. 1663. He
married his cousin, Margaret, third dau. of Sir Philip Carteret, of St. Owen's. Kt., by whom he
had a son, Sir Charles, at whose death the baronetcy became extinct, and a dau., Anne-Charlotte,
who married John, Lord Frescheville. He died 20 Nov. His will is dated in 1669 (the day and
month omitted), and he described himself as Knight and Baronet, Chancellor of the Garter, etc.,
and as then aged seventy-one and upwards. It was proved, 15 Feb. 1671-2, by his son Sir
Charles.

1683. He was buried in York Minster 12 Apl. 1686. This dau. died young. The unofficial

2 (This entry is in the unofficial register only, and the Lady named was not buried in the
Abbey; but, as she disappeared entirely from the histories of the noble family with which she
had been connected, and was identified only after much difficulty, it seems proper that the entry
should not be omitted.) She was Jane, third dau. of John, first Lord Butler of Bramfield, by
Elizabeth Villiers, half-sister of George, first Duke of Buckingham, and was the third wife and
relict of James Ley, first Earl of Marlborough, who died 14 Mch. 1627-8, to whom she had
been married about seven years. She almost immediately remarried (being “a young, beautyfull,
and rich widow," as her second husband recorded upon her monument) William Ashburnham, Esq.,
Cofferer of the Household to K. Charles II., second son of Sir John Ashburnham, Kt. She was
buried in the family vault at Ashburnham, co. Sussex, 28 Mch. 1672, and an elaborate monument
erected over her remains. Her second husband was buried with her 16 Dec. 1679. She left no
issue by cither husband.

children occur in the registers of that parish. See the burial of her dau. 7 Sep. 1668.
5 Sir Frescheville Holles, Kt., only surviving son of Gervase Holles, of Great Grimsby, co.
Lincoln, Esq.. the celebrated antiquary and Master of the Requests, by his second wife, Elizabeth,
dau. of Lieut.-Col. William Molesworth. According to a horoscope in Ashmole MS. 243 (Bod. Lib.)
p. 232, he was born 8 June 1642, at 6 o'clock p.m. He greatly distinguished himself in the sca-
fight with the Dutch in 1665, and received the honour of knighthood. He finally fell in the
naval battle of Southwold Bay, 28 May 1672. He married (Mar. Lic. Fac. 24 Nov. 1662) Jane,
fourth dau. of Richard Lewis (son of John Lewis, of Marr, co. York, Esq.), and relict of
Valentine Crome, of London, who survived him, but by whom he left no issue. In a will dated
17 May 1665, he then going to sea in command of a man-of-war, occurs the following interesting
passage: "In case my body should be brought to land to be buried, I desire that some stone
may be laid over me, with this inscription: 'Know, reader, whosoever thou be, if I had lived,
'twas my intent not to have owed my memory to any other monument but what my sword should
raise for me of honour and of victory.'" This will was proved 5 June 1672. A later one, dated
25 Apl. 1672, with a nuncupative codicil, 23 May, then on board the " Cambridge," of which he
was commander, was afterwards discovered, and proved 2 June 1673.
6 Edward Montagu, only surviving son and heir of Sir Sidney Montagu (younger brother of
Henry, first Earl of Manchester), by Paulina, third dau. of John Pepys, of Cottenham, co. Cam-
bridge, Esq. He was born 27 July 1625, and married, at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 7 Nov.
1642, Jemima, eldest dau. of John, first Lord Crewe, of Stene. He was created Earl of Sandwich,
etc., 12 July 1660, having been invested with the Order of the Garter the preceding 28th of May.
His gallantry as a naval commander is a part of the history of the country, but his end was un-
necessarily tragic. Refusing to quit his ship in the last extremity, he was blown up in her,
with a few sailors who would not leave him. This occurred during the battle in Southwold
Bay, 28 May 1672. His will, dated 21 Nov. 1669, was proved 7 Sep. 1672.

1 The well known ecclesiastical writer. He was third son of Francis Thorndike, of
Scamblesby, co. Lincoln, Esq., by Alice, dau. of Edward Coleman, of Waldingfield, Suffolk, and
was born about 1598. He was educated at Cambridge, and became a Fellow of Trinity College,
but never proceeded to the degrees of Divinity. He was installed Prebendary of Lincoln 12
April 1636, but resigned his stall in 1640, becoming Vicar of Claybrook, co. Leicester, and Chap-
lain to James, first Duke of Richmond. On 2 July 1642 he was instituted to the Rectory of
Barley. Herts, from which he retired a year later. During the Commonwealth he employed him-
self with his books, and on 5 Sep. 1661 he was installed Prebendary of Westminster. He died
at Chiswick, Midx., 11 July 1672. See his brother's burial 3 Nov. 1668.
2 Eldest son of John Jones, of the city of Worcester, Gent., by Ann Dews, of Powick, co.
Worcester. He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church, 24 Oct. 1634, aged 17, and procceded
to the degree of D.D. 19 Oct. 1660, having been installed Prebendary of Westminster 5 July
in that year. He married, at Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, 17 Dec. 1643 (being then B.D.),
Philippa, dau. of Rev. Dr. Samuel Fell, Dean of Christ Church, who survived him until 3 Dec.
1683. He died at Westminster, 12 July 1672. His will, dated 1 May 1671, was proved 1 Nov.
1672. See his son's baptism 10 Dec. 1663, and the marriages of his daughters, 3 Dec. 1668 and
7 Feb. 1675-6.
3 He is said to have been brought up in the Chapel, but joined the royal army and
obtained a Captain's commission in 1642, retaining the title until his death. He was Master
of the Children at the Coronation of K. Charles II. Anthony Wood says that he died of grief
because his pupil, Pelham Humphrey, excelled him on the lute. He died 13 July, apparently
intestate.
4 See his baptism 8 Aug. 1672, and that of his sister 25 Nov. 1667, and note thereto.
5 He is mentioned in the Chapter Book as Clerk of the Works as early as 26 Apl. 1662. See
his wife's burial 11 May preceding, and that of his dau. 7 Sep. 1668. His brother, Richard
Osgood, administered to his estate, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 25 Sep. 1672.
In his will, dated 11 Aug. 1672, it is stated that he was a native of the city of Limerick, in
Ireland, but then sick in London. From its contents he was evidently a Spanish merchant of
considerable wealth. He directed to be buried in the Abbey, and left bequests to his mother
Joane Hally, his brother James White, and his sisters Margaret, Phillis, and Alson White, and
also to his cousin-german Ignatius White, probably the one of that name who, as Ignatius Vitus
alias White, of Limerick, was created a Baronet 29 June 1677. The will was proved, 31 Aug.
1672, by the executors, two London merchants.

Sep. 1672.
2 Letters of administration to his estate were granted, 28 Mch. 1673, by the Court of the
Dean and Chapter, to a creditor, his daughter Honora Collins renouncing. A petition of his to
the Lords of the Council, dated 5 Mch. 1628-9, shows that from having been a private in the
army he rose to the office of serjeant, then became ensign at the Isle of Rhé, shortly after
lieutenant, and finally, his captain being slain at Rochelle, succceded to his post and rank.
He was now asking for his arrears of pay (Pub. Rec. Office, Dom. Chas. I., Vol. 138, No. 27).
3 He was Carver in Ordinary to the King.
4 Born at Martley, near Worcester, in 1597, and educated at Oxford, where he signed the
subscription book 30 Apl. 1613. He became a Fellow of Merton College in 1619, Rector of Lap-
worth, co. Warwick, 11 Jan. 1633-4, and afterwards Lecturer at St. Edmund's, Salisbury. After
the Restoration he became Rector of Cheam, co. Surrey, and was installed Prebendary of West-
minster 5 July 1660, proceeding to his degree of D.D., at Oxford, 19 Oct. following. He died 25
Dec., and, according to Anthony Wood, "after he had lived to be twice a child." His will,
dated 21 Feb. 1667-8, was proved 30 Dec. 1672, by his relict Catherine, to whom he left all his
estate, and who is alone named in it. See her burial, as Lady Heath, 30 May 1694.
5 There can be little or no doubt that this entry refers to the mother and wife of Christopher,
second Lord Hatton of Kirby, who were killed by an explosion of the powder magazine at Cornet
Castle, Guernsey, 30 Dec. 1672. The entry itself is unsatisfactory, and the unofficial register
does not explain it, as it merely says, under this date, "Lady Hatton's fu: in ye Abby"; but the
dates and other circumstances so thoroughly accord that the identification is rendered nearly
certain. The facts of this shocking occurrence, as gathered from the various histories of
Guernsey, appear to be briefly these. Towards midnight, on the 29th of December, a terrific
thunder-storm broke over Cornet Castle, the residence of Lord Hatton, then Governor of
Guernsey, and about one o'clock on the morning of the 30th, according to the parish register of
St. Peter-Port, the powder-magazine exploded, evidently from the effects of the lightning. The
buildings were almost entirely demolished, and a number of persons killed outright. The
dowager Lady Hatton, who was in the upper part of the castle, was crushed by the falling in of
the ceiling of her apartment. Lady Hatton, the Governor's wife, who had fled to her children in
the nursery, was also killed, with her waiting-woman and nurse, the latter being found dead
with his lordship's second daughter in her arms, unhurt, though holding in her hands her usual
plaything, a small silver cup, which was much battered and bruised. The youngest child, who
lay in a cradle almost filled with rubbish, was likewise miraculously saved without the least
injury, although the faithful nurse was killed, with the elder child in one arm, and her other hand
on the cradle of the infant. But the preservation of Lord Hatton himself was even more mar-
vellous. It is said that, by the force of the explosion, he was actually carried on his bed to the
battlement of a wall some yards distant, and not awakened till a shower of hailstones fell upon his
face. Of the building in which he had been sleeping, so complete had been its destruction that
nothing was left standing but the frame of the door.
The question arising whether the persons so suddenly destroyed were not buried where

they died, the Editor obtained the following verbatim copies of the entries relating to them in
the parish register of St. Peter-Port:
"Madame Elizabeth de Montagu, veuve de Mylord Hatton, Gouver de cette Isle, ayant été
tuée dans les ruines et le débris du donjon du Château Cornet, qui fut frappé d'un coup de fondre
et enlevé par les poudres qui y étaient, le lundi 30 Xbre 1672, environ une heure du matin, ayant
été embauméc, ses entrailles ont été mises dans le temple le mardi 31 du dit mois.
“Madame Cecile Tufton, féme de Mylord Hatton, ayant été tuée du même accident, et étant
embaumée, ses entrailles furent mises dans le temple, avec celles de Made sa belle mère Made de
Montagu, le dit jour 31 Xbre"
It is evident from these entries that the bodies of these two ladies were not buried at St.
Peter-Port. Where were they carried? The entry in the text seems to answer the question con-
clusively. Exactly eleven days from the date in the St. Peter-Port register-just time for the
journey from Guernsey and the necessary preparations in London-we find the Lady Hatton
and her daughter" interred in Westminster Abbey, and doubtless in the vault of the Hatton
family, where the husband of the elder lady and several of her children were already buried. It
is natural and reasonable that she should have been interred with them, and not likely, under
the peculiar circumstances, that the bodies of the two who had perished together should have
been separated.
The elder lady was Elizabeth, eldest dau. and coheir of Sir Charles Montagu. Kt. (younger
brother of Henry, first Duke of Manchester), by his second wife, Mary, fourth dau. of William
Whitmore, Esq.. citizen and alderman of London (not Sir William Whitmore, Kt., as usually
stated). She was married, at Hackney, Midx.. 8 May 1630, to Christopher Hatton, Esq., after-
wards first Lord Hatton of Kirby (see his burial Aug. 1670), who was Governor of Guernsey at
the time of his death. (See also the burials of her children, Nov. 1638. 2 Oct. 1639, 16 Feb. 1641-2,
and 3 June 1712.)
The younger lady was Lady Cecilie Tufton, fourth but third surviving dau, of John, second
Earl of Thanet, by Lady Margaret Sackville, eldest dau. and coheir of Richard, third Earl of
Dorset. She was baptized at Hothfield, Kent. 7 June 1648, and was therefore only in her 25th
year at her death. She married Christopher, second Lord Hatton, who succeeded his father as
Governor of Guernsey. He twice remarried, and his will, dated 7 May 1695, was proved 19 Feb.
1706-7. Her only surviving dau., Anue, became the second wife of Daniel Finch, sixth Earl of
Winchelsea and second of Nottingham (see the burial of her dau. 18 Apl. 1742).
It may not be deemed amiss to perpetuate here the name and memory of the faithful nurse
above mentioned. She was buried at St. Peter-Port, and in the register of that parish she is
described as "Me Caterine Willis, nourrice de Madame la Gouvernante." The present record is
her only monument, and is made two centuries after she perished so nobly.
He died 1 Feb. Sec his father's burial 17 June 1681, and his mother's 10 July 1707.
2 Relict of Walter James, Esq. (who had a Patent from the Dean and Chapter, 5 Dec. 1612,
for the Bailiwick of Westminster and the office of Escheator), to whom she was married, at
All Hallows Barking, London, 5 Sep. 1615. He was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster,
21 Nov. 1634. According to his will, dated 17 Nov. and proved 6 Dec. 1634, she was a dau. of
William Boulton, Esq., then living, and he left by her twelve children, all minors. Her own will,
dated 10 Oct. 1672, with codicils 15 and 17 Jan. following, was proved 25 Feb. 1672-3. See the
baptisms of her children, 22 Apl. 1624 and 10 Sep. 1627, the burial of her dau., Mary Fox, 8 Apl.

3 The only one of this name in the records of Westminster School is Henry Stacey, who was
elected to Cambridge in 1610.
* One of this name occurs in Dr. Busby's accounts as a member of the choir in 1664. See
his father's burial 29 Jan. 1677-8. He was probably a son by the first wife.

son's board and instruction ending Candlemas day last past." He was a major candidate at his
death. He was probably a brother of the Rev. Dr. Kuipe, afterwards Head Master of Westminster
School (see his burial 9 Aug. 1711).
2 The baptisms of children of Lawrence Swettenham occur in the parish register of St.
Margaret's, Westminster, as early as 1629, and in an Act Book of the Dean and Chapter, under
date of 10 July 1639, Lawrence Swetnam, Gent., is mentioned as a churchwarden of St. Margaret.

3 The will of Elinor Slade, of Wanting, Berks, dated 5 May 1672, was proved 27 Sep. 1673,
by her son-in-law Henry Standbrooke. She directed to be buried in the chancel of Wanting
[Wantage]. but, as her burial does not occur in the register of that parish, there seems no doubt
of her identity. She left considerable legacies to her children William, Henry, Charles, Elizabeth,
and Mary Slade, apparently all minors, her son John Slade, her daughter Elinor Strangways, her
sou Thomas Keate, and her married dau. Frances.
4 The person to whom we are indebted for the preservation of the earlier portions of the
Abbey Registers. The name was indifferently written Tynchare and Tinker, and with or with-
out the alias of Littleton. In his will he called himself "Tyucharc alias Littleton," while of his
three sons onc signed "Littleton alias Tynchare." another "Littleton alias Tinker," and the third
“Tinker alias Littleton." He himself signed the subscription book at Oxford,“ Philip Tincker.”
This was 2 Nov. 1621, and as "Philip Tinker," of New College, he was B.A. 21 June 1625, and
M.A. 3 July 1628. His name, however, is not in the matriculation register, nor in the records
of New College, and he was probably one of the chaplains, or Bible clerks, of whom no list has
been preserved. In the record of baptism of one of his daughters, at St. Gregory's, London,
18 Oct. 1632, he is called a Petty Canon of St. Paul's. He was installed Chaunter of West-
minster 11 Feb. 1660-1, and first appears among the Gentlemen of the Chapel Royal at the
Coronation of K. Charles II., 23 Apl. following. On the 29th of Nov. in the same year he was
sworn Confessor of his Majesty's Household, and retained that office until his death. His will,
dated 20 Feb. 1672-3, was proved 30 May 1673. IIis wife Mary, who survived him, appears to
have been a dau. of William Elly, brother of Rev. John Elly, Canon of Windsor. See the marriages
of his children 18 June 1663, 21 Jan. 1663-4, and 17 Dec. 1672.
5 Probably son of Nicholas Johnson, Paymaster to the Army (sce his burial 21 Apl. 1682), by
his first wife, Jane Clungcon, of the town of Southampton, who was buried at St. Margaret's,
Westminster, 20 Nov. 1673 (in her Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen., 29 Mch. 1670, she is called a spinster,
aged about nineteen, and was to marry with conscut of her mother, Mrs. Jane Clungeon, widow).
6 James Hamilton, eldest son of Sir George Hamilton (fourth son of James, first Earl of
Abercorn), Baronet of Ireland, by Mary Butler, third dau. of Walter, Viscount Thurles, and sister
of the first Duke of Ormond. He was Colonel of a regiment of Foot, and was appointed Groom
of the Bedchamber to K. Charles II. about Nov. 1664. He was made Ranger of Ilyde Park
29 Nov. 1671, and Hamilton Place, Piccadilly, is said to have thus derived its name. He died
6 June, and his relict Elizabeth administered to his estate 4 July following. She was dau. of
John, first Lord Colepeper, and by her he was father of James, sixth Earl of Abercorn (see his
burial 3 Dec. 1734). She survived him until 1709. Charnock, in his Biographia Navalis, con-

3 Sir Robert Moray (as he appears to have always signed his name), son of Sir Robert
Murray (or Moray) of Craigie, by a dau. of George Halket of Pitferran. He was an eminent
mathematician and natural philosopher, and one of the originators and first President of the
Royal Society. He was knighted at Oxford 10 Jan. 1642-3, and after the Restoration was
Secretary of State and Privy Councillor for Scotland. He was also for some time (at least
nominally) one of the Lords of Session and Lord Justice-Clerk. Bishop Burnet styled him "the
wisest and worthiest man of the age." He died, suddenly, in his pavilion in the garden at
Whitehall, on the 4th of July, aged about seventy. According to Douglas (Peerage of Scotland,
Wood's Edit., i. 168), he married the Hon. Sophia Lindsay, eldest dau. of Sir David Lindsay,
first Lord Balcarres, who died 2 Jan. 1653 and was buried at Balcarres ; but this does not accord
with Anthony Wood's account of him, which says that he was a single man-an abhorrer of
women." (See a good memoir of him in Chambers' Biographical Dictionary of Eminent
Scotsmen.)
✦ The unofficial register says "Mr. Numan's daughter." A child of Richard Newman, of
Fifehead-Magdalen, co. Dorset, Esq., by Anne, eldest dau. of Sir Charles Harbord, Kt. See her

5 Younger son of Sir Walter Long, of Draycot and Wraxall, Wilts, Kt., by his second wife,
Catherine, dau. of Sir John Thynne, of Longleat. He was Auditor of the Exchequer and one of
the Privy Council to K. Charles II., and was created a Baronet 1 Sep. 1662, with remainder to
his nephew, Sir James Long, of Draycot. He died 13 July, unmarried. His will, dated 27 Mch.,
with a codicil 30 May, was proved 16 July 1673.
6 Richard Le Neve, second son of John Le Neve, of Cavendish, co. Suffolk, Esq., by his wife
Catherine (see her burial 29 July 1682). He was a Lieut. in the royal navy as early as 1666, and
received his Captain's commission Aug. 1671. He was slain on board his own frigate, the
Edgar," during an engagement with the Dutch on the 11th of Aug., aged only twenty-seven
years. His nuncupative will was proved 16 Aug. 1673, by his brother John (see his burial
2 Aug. 1693).
7 Richard Perrinchief. He had the rectory of St. Mildred, Poultry, London, shortly after
the Restoration, and was created S. T. P. at Cambridge, as of Magdalen College, in 1663. He
was installed Prebendary of Westminster 3 Nov. 1664, and of St. Paul's 2 Aug. 1667, and Arch-
deacon of Huntingdon 20 Apl. 1670. On the 1st of Feb. 1671-2 he had the united rectories of
St. Mildred, Poultry, and St. Mary Colechurch, and retained all his preferments until his death.
He was also Sub-Almoner to K. Charles II. According to the unofficial register, he died 31 Aug.
His will, dated 26 Aug., was proved 16 Oct. 1673. It mentions no relations, except his sister
Anne Clayton. See his wife's burial 15 June 1671.

1 Charles Stuart, only son of George, Lord D'Aubigny (who was slain at the battle of Edghill,
23 Oct. 1642, and buried in Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford), by the Lady Catherine Howard,
eldest dau. of Theophilus, second Earl of Suffolk (who remarried James Livingston, first Earl of
Newburgh). According to a horoscope in Ashmole MS. (Bod. Lib.), 243, p. 160b, he was born in
London 7 Mch. 1639-40, at 5·8 a.m.; but this hardly accords with the baptism of his sister the
following 5th of December (see note to her burial, 11 Nov. 1702). He was created, 10 Dec. 1615,
Baron Stuart, of Newbury, Berks, and Earl of Lichfield, and succeeded his cousin Esme, 10 Aug.
1660, as third Duke of Richmond and sixth of Lennox. He died at Elsinore, while Ambassador
to Denmark, 12 Dec. 1672 (coffin-plate, exposed in 1867), without surviving issue, and his titles
became extinct. His will, dated 12 Jan. 1671-2, was proved 14 Feb. 1672-3. See the burials, of
his first wife 29 Apl. 1661, his second 1666-7, and his third 22 Oct. 1702; also of his dau. 28 Mch.
1662.
2 The distinguished naval commander, who died Admiral of the Blue. According to his
grant of arms, he was "son of Lichfield Spragge, Captain of Horse, and Governor of Roscommon,
who was slain in his Majesty's service against the rebels," who was "son of John Spragge, a
captain of foot in Ireland during the reign of Q. Elizabeth." His mother was Mary, second
daughter of Edward Legge, Vice-l'resident of Munster, and he was therefore own cousin of
George, first Lord Dartmouth. According to Dugdale's MS. list, he was knighted on board his
ship the "Triumph," 1 July 1665, but other authorities give the date 24 Sep, in that year. He
was drowned, during an engagement with the Dutch off the coast of Holland, 11 Aug. 1673. His
will, dated 22 May, was proved 3 Nov. 1673, and commences with the characteristic words
"being now ready to engage the enemy." He is said (by Le Neve) to have married at Brussels,
before 1660, but his wife is not mentioned in his will, and he left no legitimate issue. He
bequeathed £300 to his sister Anne, then wife of Hugh Kelly (one of his executors, Sir Joseph
Sheldon being the other), and £200 to his cousin John Spragg; but the rest of his estate, which
was considerable, he left to one Dorothy Dennis and his children by her, viz. William, Edward,
and Dorothy Spragg. (The latter was baptized at St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., 20 Mch. 1669-70,
as "dau. of Sir Edward Spragg and Dame Dorothy"!) The son William, according to Le Neve,
was a captain of marines in 1697.
3 In the unofficial register this entry reads thus: "1673 Novem: ye 8th, Major Mullinax bu:

seventh year.
She was a prolific authoress of considerable note in her day, as the catalogue of
her plays, poems, orations, and philosophical discourses abundantly testifics; but few of them
are to be found in modern libraries. She had no issue.

aged one year, five months, and fifteen days. See the burials of his brothers and sisters, 6 Dec.

4 John Wilson, the celebrated Doctor of Music. believed to have been the "Jack Wilson" of
Shakespeare's stage. He was born at Faversham in Kent, and appears to have been connected
with the Chapel Royal in the reign of K. Charles I. He was created Mus. Doc. at Oxford in
1644, and resided there and in the vicinity many years. In 1656 he was constituted Professor of
Music in the University, but succeeded Henry Lawes as Gentleman of the Chapel 22 Oct. 1662,
or, more probably, was then reinstated in his old position, and returned to London. According
to his monument he died 22 Feb., aged seventy-eight years, ten months. and seventeen days.
His will, dated 30 Apl. 1671, was proved 18 Mch. 1673-4, by his relict Anne, to whom he left all
his estate, except a trifling legacy to his dau. Mrs. Rebecca Bowerman, probably by his first wife.
See his second marriage 31 Jan. 1670-1.
5 He was admitted Gentleman of the Chapel Royal 25 Nov. 1661, and, according to the
Cheque Book, was in holy orders. He died 2 Mch. See the burial (probably) of his wife,
27 Apl. 1685.
6 The unofficial register says: "Mch. 23. Mr. Griffith bu: in ye Cloysters." In the parish
register of St. Margaret, Lothbury, London, occurs the following entry, under the date of 21 Mch.
1673-4: "Thomas Grifeth was buried at the Abbey at Westminster," but that register throws no
further light upon his history.
7 In the unofficial register only. See a burial 7 Mch. 1706-7.
8 The unofficial register calls her "Mr. Gowen's sister." See note to a burial 8 Nov. 1669.
The elder William Gawen there mentioned, according to a pedigree in the College of Arms
(Bencfactors, ii. 107), had a sister Rachel, who, at the date of the pedigree (apparently 1643),
was the wife of Richard Pitt. It is probable that she subsequently remarried, and was the per-
son named in the text.
9 In the unofficial register only, and a notable illustration of the value of that document, as
it settles a long-disputed question as to the place of interment of a somewhat eminent man,
which the absence of the entry from the official Register left still in doubt. The entry refers of
course to the well-known Col. Thomas Bushell, the speculative and generally unsuccessful engineer,
Farmer of the Royal Mines, and Gentleman of the Privy Chamber to K. Charles II. He is said
to have been a native of Worcestershire, and educated at Balliol College, Oxford; but his name
does not occur in the matriculation register of that University. In 1646 he was Governor of the
island of Lundy, in the Bristol Channel, but retired the next year. Ten years before he had con-
structed certain remarkable water-works at Enstone, in Oxfordshire, and subsequently he engaged
in more extensive enterprises in the mining regions of Wales. Partly from his failures, and partly
because deeply in debt, he became extremely obnoxious to those who had been concerned with

him, and he also appears to have incurred the hostility of the Cromwellians, so that it is said his
life was in danger. Giving out that he had filed to the continent, he retired to an obscure house
in Lambeth Marsh, where he lived in secrecy until the Restoration. He was in high favour with
K. Charles II., who assisted him in various ways, made him Farmer of the Welsh mines, and, in
1670, a Gentleman of the Privy Chamber. His ill fortune, however, clung to him, and, according
to Aubrey, he died £120,000 in debt. The same authority states that he died "at Capt. Norton's,
in the gate at Scotland Yard" (Letters, ii. 261), but errs as to the precise period of his decease.
His nuncupative will, made "immediately before he departed this life," on the 21st of April
1674, was proved 23 May following, by Col. Thomas Colepeper, of St. Stephen's, in Kent, whom
he named as his executor. No other person is mentioned in it. In the probate act he is de-
scribed as late of Enstone, co. Oxford, but as dying in the parish of St. Martin in the Fields,
Midx. It is not generally known that he married Dame Anne, widow of Sir William Waad,
Lieutenant of the Tower and Clerk of the Privy Council, who died in 1623; but in a petition at
the Public Record office (Dom. Cal. Chas. II), dated in 1660, in which he prayed for a renewal of
the lease of Belsize manor, Hampstead, the fact is distinctly stated. She died in 1645. It also
appears, from the parish register of Enstone, that he had a former wife, named Isabell, by whom
he had a son Francis (evidently named after Lord Chancellor Bacon, in whose service he had
been), who was baptized and buried at Enstone in 1626.

¹ Pelham Humfrey, as he signed his will. He was educated as a chorister, and admitted a
Gentleman of the Chapel Royal 24 Jan. 1666-7. On the death of his old master, Capt. Henry
Cooke, 13 July 1672, he succeeded him as Master of the children. On the 8th of Aug. following
he had a joint patent, with Thomas Purcell, as Composer in Ordinary for the Violins to his
Majesty. He died, at Windsor, 14 July 1674, aged only twenty-seven. His will, dated 23 Apl.,
was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 30 July 1674, by his relict Catherine. It
mentions no relations, except his "cousin Betty Jelfe;" but he is said to have been a nephew of
Col. John Humphrey, a noted Cromwellian and Bradshaw's sword-bearer. See the burial of his
dau. 23 Feb. 1673-4.
2 The unofficial register calls him Clement Coke, and says that he was buried 10 Aug.
According to his monument he was son of Robert Coke, Esq., who was son of Clement Coke of
Langford, co. Derby, and of the Inner Temple, Esq., who was younger son of Sir Edward Coke,
Kt., Lord Chief Justice, etc., and died 8 Aug., in his eighteenth year. He was admitted to West-
minster School in 1673.
3 The unofficial register says " Mrs. Frances Trevor." From the place of interment, and
manner in which the entry is recorded, it is not likely that she belonged to any of the noble or
gentle families of the name, but was more probably a domestic, or the wife of some minor official
about the Abbey.
Dau. of Sir Roger Harsnett, Kt. (sce his burial 27 Oct. 1692), by Carola his wife (see her
burial 17 May 1676), and second wife of Sir Samuel Morland, Kt. and Bart. (see their marriage
26 Oct. 1670). She died 10 Oct., in her twenty-third year. See the burials of her children,
19 Dec. 1671 and 11 June 1675, and more concerning her husband in the note to the burial of
his third wife, 24 Feb. 1679-80.
5 The unofficial register says " Madam Stanhop." There can be little hesitation in identifying
this lady as one of the well-known Maids of Honour to the Queen often mentioned in the annals
of the Court of K. Charles II., viz. Henrietta-Maria Price. She was one of the daus. of
Sir Herbert Price (sec his burial 3 Feb. 1677-8) by Goditha, second dau. and coheir of Sir Henry
Arden, of Park Hall, co. Warwick, Kt., Lady of the Privy Chamber to the Queen Mother. She
appears to have been a Maid of Honour from 1662 until her marriage, which took place at
St. Andrew's, Holborn, 4 Dec. 1673. Her husband was Alexander Stanhope, of the Inner
WESTMINSTER ABBEY.

five;" but she was probably somewhat older, unless she became a Maid of Honour when only
fourteen. It is proper to state that her husband did not administer to her estate until 2 June
1677, nearly three years after the date in the text; but, as she disappears from the Court annals
after the latter date, and no record of her burial is to be found near the former, there seems no
doubt of her identity, and it is probable that she died in childbed.
1 Son of the Rev. Thomas Knipe, D.D., Prebendary of Westminster and Head Master of
Westminster School (see his burial 9 Aug. 1711), by his first wife Anne (see her burial 26 Aug.
1685). The Christian name in the text is undoubtedly an error, and should be Thomas. On the
monument he is called "Thomas, second of that name," and said to have died 2 Nov., aged one year
and nine months. The monument also states that the first Thomas was buried in the Cloisters
24 Feb. 1670-1, aged six days, but there is no record of his burial in the Register.
2 Lionel Cranfield, second son of Lionel, first Earl of Middlesex (see his burial 13 Aug. 1645),
by his second wife Anne (see her burial 12 Feb. 1669-70). He succeeded his brother James (see
his burial 13 Sep. 1651) as third Earl, and was one of the Gentlemen of the Bedchamber to
K. Charles II. He married (certificate, after publication, at St. Giles in the Fields 26 Apl., and
at St. Bride's 1 May, 1655) Lady Rachel Fane, dau. of Francis, first Earl of Westmoreland, and
relict of Henry Bourchier, fifth and last Earl of Bath, but died without issue 26 Oct. 1674, aged
about fifty. The Countess died 11 Nov. 1680, and was buried at Tavistock, co. Devon. His titles
becoming extinct at his death, Charles Sackville, eldest son of his only surviving sister Frances,
wife of Richard, fifth Earl of Dorset, was created Baron Cranfield and Earl of Middlesex,
4 Apl. 1675, and eventually succeeded to the family estates.
3 The unofficial register says "Mr. Gawen's child." Son of William Gawen, of Westminster,
by his second wife, Margaret, dau. of William Gawen of Hurcot, by his first wife, Katherine, dau.
of Hubert Hacon (Ped. in Coll. Arm., Benefactors, ii. 107). See his first wife's burial 8 Nov. 1669,
and note thereto. His second wife was living at the date of his father's will, 24 July 1699, he
being apparently then dead.
4 The unofficial register says, "Joyce: Justice Numan's mayd." Thomas Cox (see his burial
17 Feb. 1668-9), who was a servant to Richard Newman, Esq., in his will left her £5, and called
her his fellow-servant. In her own nuncupative will, made 19 Sep. 1674, she is described as a
spinster. She left all she had to her sister's daughter, Anne Garrett, who administered 21 Dec.
following.
5 Her will, dated 23 Nov., was proved 14 Dec. 1674, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter,
by her cousin "Mr. William Gawen the younger, dwelling in the Bowling Alley" (the same who
is mentioned in the notes to burials 8 Nov. 1669 and 30 Nov. 1674), to whom she left £200; and
to his wife Margaret, also called her "cousin," sundry bequests. In the probate act she is
styled “ Beatrix Buckland,” but she signed the will" Beatrix Bocland," and was described as of
St. Margaret's, Westminster, spinster. To her mother, Mrs. Ellen Bockland, she left all her
plate, and to her brother, Maurice Bockland, Esq., £500. The will contains no other bequests,
and affords no further clew to her identity.
• Edward Hyde, third son of Henry Hyde, of Purton and Dinton, Wilts, by Mary, dau. and
heir of Edward Langford, of Trowbridge, in the same county, and born at Dinton 18 Feb. 1608-9.
He was knighted at Oxford 22 Feb. 1642-3, and declared Lord High Chancellor, at Bruges,
29 Jan. 1657-8, entering fully upon the duties of the post 1 June 1660. He was created Baron
Hyde, of Hindon, 3 Nov. 1660, and Viscount Cornbury and Earl of Clarendon 20 Apl. 1661.
Removed from his high office, impeached, and banished, in 1667, he died in exile at Rouen, in
France, 19 Dec. 1674. His will, dated on the 11th of that month, was not proved in England

3 In Granger's Biographical History, iii. 394, is mentioned a portrait of him, on the second
impressions of which an inscription stated that he was, or had been, "Commissary for the
Emperor of all Russia and Muscovia," and that he was created a Baronet of England, 31 May
1660, by K. Charles II., at Igravenhaag. In his will, dated 18 Feb. 1674-5, he described himself
as a Baronet, and of Kirby, co. Norfolk. The will was proved 16 Apl. 1675, by his niece, Mary Belts,
to whom he left his house in Norwich and his estate generally. He mentioned having long
before purchased a house in Borrowe [? Burgh], co. Norfolk, in the name of his dau. Mary
Webster, which was then occupied by his nephew Henry Gouldsworth, to whom he bequeathed
it. The will also mentions his sister in Holland, Mrs. Catharine Lucasz; his cousin Mr. John
Webster, of London, draper, and his two brothers, all then in Barbadoes; and his cousin Mr.
John Webster, and his brother Mr. Jacob Webster, both in Cheapside. He appealed to several
eminent personages to aid his exccutrix in obtaining divers and great sums of money due to him
from their late and present Majestics. At the date of his will he appears to have been residing
in lodgings in Durham Yard. His name is not recognized in any of the lists of baronets,
although there seems to be no doubt of his creation.
4 The unofficial register gives the name as Gilbert. He appears to have been a child of one
Abraham Gilbert, citizen and joyner of London, and grandchild of Sebastian Currall (see his
burial 1 June 1684), then one of the twelve privileged almsmen of the Abbey.

7 The unofficial register says "Mr. Rich: Johnson." He was probably some minor official or
servant about the Abbey.
8 Infant son of Sir Samuel Morland, Bart., by his second wife, Carola (sce her burial 14 Oct.
1674). He appears to have been born the 4th, and baptized 16 Oct. 1674, at St. Margaret's,
Westminster, although in the record of his baptism he is called Edward.

thereto. The unofficial register gives the date of burial as "July 7," and the entry precedes that
of Lewis Templer. He was admitted to Gray's Inn 12 July 1641, and became a Gentleman of
the Privy Chamber in 1660. He is said in the books to have married a dau. of Sir Henry Clerke,
Bart., but this is an error. He married, at St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., 10 July 1642, Anne,
dau. of Sir Robert Clerke, Kt., of Pleshey, co. Essex, by his wife Dame Judith, dau. of Sir
William Daniel, of London, Kt. The marriage allegation (Bp. Lond.), dated 27 June 1642. de-
scribes her as a spinster, aged about twenty, and distinctly gives her parentage as above, while
the wills of both her father and mother confirm it. His own age was stated in the allegation as
about nineteen, and he was therefore about fifty-two at his death. Both he and his wife appear
to have died intestate. See the burials of their sons, 13 Aug. 1687 and 11 May 1689. Their
dau. Judith was principal legatec, and named executrix, in the will of her grandmother, Dame
Judith Clerke, in 1655. Their dau. Mary became the wife, first, of Richard Wiseman, Esq., the
eminent Serjeant Surgeon to the King, and, secondly, of Thomas Harrison, Esq., and was buried
at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, 13 Aug. 1680.
¹ Letters of administration were granted, 20 Jan. 1675-6, to the estate of Sir Alexander
Hume, Kt., of the city of Westminster, to his nephew and next of kin, Alexander Hume, Esq.
He became a Gentleman of the Privy Chamber to K. Charles II. in 1660.
2 Mary, second of that name, dau. of Thomas Donkley, Closet Keeper to the King (see his
burial 8 Feb. 1688-9). She was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster. 19 Nov. 1672.
3 The unofficial register says "Charles Harsnet." Probably a son of Sir Roger Harsnett
(see his burial 27 Oct. 1692).
4 In the Cheque Book of the Chapel Royal he is called Captain Owen Phillips, and it is said
that he was sworn a Groom of the Vestry in Aug. 1665, and died at Richmond, in Surrey, 26 Aug.
1675. In his will, without date, he is described as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Gent., and it
was proved 11 Sep. 1675, by his kinsman Hugh Howell, of Presteigne, co. Radnor, mercer; power
being reserved to another kinsman, Rice Lewis, of London, clothdrawer. The only legacies in
the will are £50 to his nephew, John James, of Blethnaugh, co. Radnor, and £100 to his son
Owen James, the testator's godson; £10 to the poor of Blethnaugh; and the furniture, etc., at
his lodgings, to his cousin Joane Long, widow.
• Eldest child of James, Duke of York (afterwards K. James II.), by his second wife, Mary-
Beatrix-Eleanora D'Este, dau. of Alphonso, Duke of Modena, to whom married, at Dover,
21 Nov. 1673, and who died 8 May 1718. She was born 10 Jan. 1674-5, and died at St. James's
Palace 3 Oct. 1675. See the burials of her brother and sisters, 13 Dec. 1677, 4 Mch. 1680-1, and

Under K. Charles I. he was Chancellor of the Exchequer and Ambassador to Madrid, and was
clevated to the peerage, 10 July 1631, as Baron Cottington, of Hanworth, co. Midx. He was
subsequently Lord Treasurer and Master of the Wards, but went into exile with K. Charles II.,

there. His will, dated three days before his death, was not proved in England until 15 Aug. 1666.

Robert Brett, Kt., and, according to a funeral certificate in the College of Arms, she died at her
house near Charing Cross the 22nd, and was buried 23 Feb. 1633-4, in Westminster Abbey, but
there is no record of her burial in the Register, which is defective at that period. Only a son
Charles and a dau. Anne survived her, and both died in their father's lifetime. The monument
erected by Lord Cottington's nephew and heir states that his remains were brought to this
country in 1679, but the date of interment, in both the official and unofficial registers, is distinctly
1678. The inscription also states that he died in his seventy-fourth year.
1 See his baptism 1 July 1678, and that of his brother 3 Oct. 1680, and notes thereto.
2 Fourth son of Sir William Howard, of Naworth Castle, co. Cumberland, by Mary, eldest
dau. of William, fourth Lord Eure, and younger brother of Charles, first Earl of Carlisle. He was
Lieutenant of the Yeomen of the Guard, and was noted for his gallantry and duels. He died with-
out legitimate issue. See the burials, of his wife (the Duchess of Richmond) 28 Nov. 1685, and of
his brother 15 Apl. 1686.
3 Henry O'Brien, Lord Ibrackan, only son of Henry, seventh Earl of Thomond, by Anne,
dau. and coheir of Henry, fifth Earl of Thomond. He died 1 Sep., in his father's lifetime, and,
according to the unofficial register, was buried in the Richmond vault. His will, dated 6 Apl.
1672, was proved 26 Sep. 1678. It closes with the following extraordinary and somewhat
unnatural paragraph:-"I conjure my son, Donatus O'Brien, to honour and obey his King in
whatever he commands that is not contradictory to the Holy Scripture and Protestant religion,
in which I conjure him (upon pain of my curse) not only to continue himself, but to advise his
brothers and sisters to do the same; and that he never marry a Papist; and that he take great
care, if ever God bless him with children (which I trust he will many), to breed them strictly
in the Protestant religion: . . . I advise him to cherish the English upon his estate, and drive
out the Irish, and especially those of them who go under the name of gentlemen." See the burials,
of his wife 11 Nov. 1702, his son 8 May 1679, and his daughter 28 Nov. 1683.
4 The unofficial register says "Mr. Lumly Due;" probably correctly Dew. See notes to a
marriage 27 Mch. 1676, and a burial 10 June 1684. From the combination of peculiar names,
he was evidently a member of the family therein mentioned.
5 The unofficial register says simply "Tho: Muddiford," omitting the prefix "Sir." He
was probably the only son and successor of Sir James Modyford, of London and Chiswick (who
was created a Baronet 18 Feb. 1660-1, and was Lieut.-Governor of Jamaica, where he died.
13 Jan. 1672-3), by Elizabeth, dau. and heir of Sir Nicholas Slanning, of Maristow, co. Devon, Kt.
Dying under age, his estates passed to his sister Grace, who married, first, Edward Drake, who
died in Jamaica 5 Oct. 1680, and, secondly, Peter Heywood, Esq. (There was another Baronet
of this name, Sir Thomas Modyford, brother of Sir James; but he did not die until 2 Sep. 1679,
and his son Thomas also died 19 Oct. following, both being buried at Jamaica.)
6 The will of John Van Hasdunck, Esq., one of the Gentlemen of the Privy Chamber to the
King, dated 15 Oct. 1678, was proved 20 Nov. following. He left all his estate, real and per-
sonal, to his brother Cornelius Van Hasdunck and John his son, especially excluding the
daughters and heirs of his brother, Mr. Arnold Van Hasdunck, their husbands, children, and
descendants, and also the husbands, children, and descendants of his two sisters, Katherine and
Magdalen. In one of the Signet Books at the Public Record Office is a warrant, dated Dec. 1660,
for paying John Van Hasdonk, Gent., £500, for furnishing the late King Charles with arms and
ammunition. He was appointed one of the Gentlemen of the Privy Chamber the same year.

thereto). He was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 10 June 1647. His father, in his will
dated 10 June 1663, stated that he had obtained a place for him in his Majesty's kitchen, the
profits of which his mother was to enjoy until he reached full age. His relict Anne administered
to his estate, 3 June 1679, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter. Their son Thomas and daughter

6 His will, in which he is described as of Berkhampstead St. Peter, Herts (but on which it is
endorsed that at the time of his death he was dwelling at Westminster). notary public, dated
8 June 1677, was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 5 Feb. 1678-9. by his relict
Mary, whom it states was the dau. of Mr. Jonathan Bradley the elder. He left his manor of
Combe, at Berkhampstead, and other lands in Coxwold, co. York, given him by K. Charles II.
for his faithful services to him and his father, to be sold to pay his debts, and small legacies to
his brothers Robert and Thomas Bulmer, and his sisters Mary and Anne. On the 27th March
1675 he had a license from the Vicar-General's office, in which he was described as of Ashridge,
Bucks, Gent., a widower, aged about sixty-eight, to marry Mrs. Mary Bradley, of Bridgewater House,
London, spinster, aged about twenty-four. According to a monumental inscription preserved by
Dart (ii. 137), and another by Keep (edit. 1682, p. 360), both of which were long since destroyed,
his first wife and their only son were also buried in the Cloisters, but no record of either occurs in
cither of the registers. She is described as Mary, dau. of William Greene, of Lannorth, co. York,
Esq., and is said to have died 31 Jan. 1661-2. The son, William, who matriculated at Oxford,
from Christ Church, 28 Mch. 1655, and was designed for the medical profession, died while on
a visit to his parcuts in London, apparently in 1658, in which year they erected the monument
to his memory.
7 The will of James IIudgbutt, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Gent.. dated 5 Jan. 1678-9,
was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 23 Sep. 1679, by his brother Charles Hudgbutt,

was proved in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 12 Mch. following, by his cousins Charles and
William Wren, Esqrs., to whom he bequeathed his estate in trust for his wife Mary and his
minor children. He appears to have held some official position under the Bishop of Lincoln

wife's burial 25 Feb. 1731-2. According to her will, he was buried in about the middle of the

was third son of Richard Baber, of Twerton, co. Somerset, and was thrice Mayor of Bath, where
he died 22 May 1705, in his seventy-eighth year, and was buried in the Abbey Church. The
mother, Elizabeth, was dau. of William Fox, of Farley, co. Wilts, Esq., apparently a brother of
Sir Stephen Fox (although not mentioned in the accounts of the family), after whom this child
was probably named. She died 22 Feb. 1704-5, in her seventy-sixth year, and was also buried in
the Abbey Church of Bath.

register only, but is confirmed by a monument.
9 In the unofficial register only. Thomas Butler, Earl of Ossory, cldest surviving son of
James, twelfth Earl and first Duke of Ormond (see his burial 4 Aug. 1688), by Elizabeth his wife
(see her burial 24 July 1684). He was born at Kilkenny, Ireland, 8 July 1634, and died 30 July
1680.
His relict Emillia administered to his estate 14 Sep. 1680 (see her burial 12 Dec. 1688).
His remains are said to have been removed to the family vault in Kilkenny Cathedral, but there
is no confirmation of this in any of the Abbey records, and it certainly had not been done at the
date of his father's will in 1688. See a further entry respecting him 13 Nov. following. See also
the burials, of his dau. 12 July 1717, and his son 22 May 1746.

bequeathed £300 to his sister Susan Spurling, and £200 to her daughter Margaret Harris, and
£10 each to his cousins Kersey and Minshaw, of Deptford, co. Kent. He also left rings and
other legacies to numerous persons, evidently not his relations, among whom were many of
the nobility.
See probably his mother's burial 18 June 1676. If so, the name should be Pipes.
7 His will, as of St. Martin in the Fields, one of His Majesty's Chirurgeons in Ordinary,
dated 15 Feb., was proved 17 Mch. 1680-1. He mentioned no children, but left the reversion of

1707-8), by Mary, dau. and coheir of Sir John Lewys, of Ledstone, co. York, Kt. and Bart. (see
her burial 20 Feb. 1683-4). The unofficial register says she was buried in the Hunsdon vault.
2 See her father's burial 17 June 1681, and her mother's 10 July 1707. She died 11 Mch.
3 This entry affords a serious instance of inaccuracy, both in the official and unofficial
registers, the latter of which gives the same Christian and surnames, and also states that he was
"buried from Mr. Hender's." His will, as Edmond Power, was dated 22 Mch. 1680-1, and proved
2 Apl. following, and his identity is established by the fact that he directed to be buried in the
Abbey, and by the perfect accordance of dates. He was evidently a guest at the Robin Hood
tavern, where he died. He bequeathed all his possessions to his cousin Robert Power, of London,
Gent., who was his executor, naming particularly a bond for £150, and other goods, jewels, etc.,
in his chamber at the Robin Hood; also his mare in Woodstock Park, and his two fowling guns in
the manor house in the custody of the under bailiff. There are other indications in his will that
he came from the vicinity of Woodstock, in Oxfordshire, and it is probable that he was of the
family of his name at Bletchington in that county.
4 Letters of administration were granted 5 May 1681, to the estate of Daniel Collingwood,
Esq., late of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., bachelor, to his brother George Collingwood; and,
de bonis non, 10 Dec. 1691, to his sister Barbara Collingwood, spinster.
5 One John Birchensha published in 1655 a quarto volume entitled "Divine Verities."
Another John Birkensha was a musician and teacher of the viol in London, and published in
1664 a work called " Templum Musicum :" he was living as late as 1672.
6 His will, as John Bryan, of Westminster, Gent., dated 23 Oct. 1677, was proved in the
Court of the Dean and Chapter 26 May 1681, by his relict Elizabeth. He left small legacies to
Richard and William Bryan; Thomas, Mary, Alice, Elizabeth, and Jane Morgan; Margaret,
wife of Richard Royston; and Mr. Smith, husband of Anne Brayford; all called his cousins.
7 According to his monument, he was born 7 Sep. 1657, and died 18 May 1681. See the
burial, probably of his father, 14 Feb. 1703-4. The unofficial register says that he was buried
"att ye feet of Long Megg."
8 The unofficial register adds "a child." See the burials 24 July 1675 and 10 Oct. 1691,
probably of her brother and mother.
9 See her mother's burial 11 Jan. 1681-2, and her father's 16 Aug. 1704. The unofficial
register says that she was buried in the South Cloister.
10 He was son of Peter Chapman, who had been "head brewer" to the College, and himself
had a patent from the Dean and Chapter, 9 June 1638, as "chief brewer." In the will of James
Chapman (see his burial 15 Jan. 1663-4) he was called "cousin," and was named as one of its
Overseers. His own will, as of Westminster, brewer, dated 29 May, was proved in the Court of
the Dean and Chapter 28 July 1681. He bequeathed freehold lands in Iver and Langley, Bucks,
which, if his dau. Anne died without issue, were to go to the authorities of Colnbrook, in that
county, for binding out poor children apprentices, the children of his own relations in that place

who was Official of Mechlin and died in 1608. He was brought to England by Sir Henry Wotton,
and was created M.A., at Oxford, 13 Aug. 1636. He again went abroad, as secretary to Sir William
Boswell, studied medicine, and on his return had the degree of M.B., at Oxford, 31 Jan. 1642. He
was secretary to Sir Edward Nicholas while Secretary of State at Oxford; attended K. Charles I.
in the Isle of Wight; afterwards became secretary to Mary, Princess of Orange (whose will, of
which he was an executor, bears high testimony to his abilities and faithfulness); then Latin
Secretary to William, Prince of Orange, and of his Council; and finally Latin Secretary to

"Mother of the Maids of Honour to the Queens of Kings Charles I. and II. According to
her monument, she lived with her husband fifty years, and died 17 Jan., aged eighty-nine.
Her will, dated 25 June 1679, was proved 8 Feb. 1681-2, by her niece Hester Nurse, to whom
she left all her estate, and who appears to have succeeded her as Mother of the Maids (Luttrell's
Diary, i. 159).

Walter Balquanquill, Dean of Durham and Master of the Savoy. His unhappy marriage with
Elizabeth, Countess of Ogle, took place on or about 2 Dec. 1681, and the circumstances of his
cruel murder are matters of history. His will, dated 9 Mch. 1680-1, was proved 21 Feb. 1681-2,
by his sister Elizabeth, wife of John Hall, of Bradford, co. Wilts, Esq., who was his sole legatee.

smith, Midx., in 1654), and, secondly (Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 29 Jan. 1662-3), of Robert Hope. Esq.,
Chief Clerk of the Spiceries to Kings Charles I. and II. At her second marriage her age was
stated as about thirty. She died 25 July. See the burials of her sous by her first husband, 29
Aug. 1673 and 2 Aug. 1693, through the latter of whom she was grandmother of John Le Neve,

dated 29 No 1662, as "Musician in Ordinary for the lute and voice," in the place of Henry
Lawes, de cased, and had been appointed, in the preceding August, in conjunction with Pelham
Humphreys, "Composer in ordinary for the Violins." He died 31 July. His will, dated 1 June
1681, was proved 8 Nov. 1682, by his relict Catharine, to whom he left all his goods, except £5 to
each of his children. See his brother's burial 13 Aug. 1664.

of George Brydges, sixth Lord Chandos, by his second wife, Lady Jane Savage, dau. of John,
Earl Rivers; but, in the accounts of the Brydges family. this Catharine is said to have died
unmarried: probably, instead of unmarried, we should read without issue.

He left his estates in the counties of Carnarvon and Radnor to his nephew Edward Wynne
(see his burial 26 Mch. 1686), son and heir of his brother Robert Wynne, deceased.
5 Third son and fourth child of Frederic V., Duke of Bavaria and Elector Palatine of the
Rhine, sometime King of Bohemia, who died at Mayence 29 Nov. 1632, by the Princess Elizabeth,
eldest and only surviving dau. of K. James I., the unfortunate Queen of Bohemia (see her burial
17 Feb. 1661-2). He was born at Prague 17 Dec. 1619, and was Prince Palatine of the Rhine
and Duke of Bavaria, and was created Earl of Holderness and Duke of Cumberland, in the
English peerage, 24 Jan. 1643-4. As the gallant but somewhat rash cavalier leader, his history
is a part of that of the country. He died unmarried, at his house in Spring Gardens, 29 Nov.,
and by his will, dated two days before and proved 1 Dec. following, left all his possessions to his
illegitimate son and daughter, and the mother of the latter.
See the marriages 6 Nov. 1679 and 1 Jan. 1688-9, and the burials 7 June 1670, 24 Apl.
1678, and 4 Mch. 1685-6, probably of members of his family. The unofficial register says,
"Mr. Francis Munday bu: in ye middle of ye North Cloysters."
7 The unofficial register says that he was buried in the North Cloister.
8 There are good reasons for believing this surname to be an error in the Register, and that
the entry refers to the widow of Christopher Gibbons, Dr. of Music and Organist of the Abbey
(see his burial 24 Oct. 1676). Elizabeth, the second wife and relict of Dr. Gibbons, proved his
will 6 Nov. 1676, and, on the 19th of Mch. 1677-8, she made her own will, and directed to be
buried near her late husband. This will was proved 22 Jan. 1682-3, within a month from the
date in the text. Her burial does not occur in the parish register of St. Margaret's, Westminster,
where she lived, nor is it elsewhere in the Abbey Register, and it is reasonable to suppose that
her wishes as to the place of her interment were carried out. From her will, her name before
marriage with Dr. Gibbons, but whether her maiden name or that of a former husband is uncer-
tain, appears to have been Ball, from which the transition to Bull by the Abbey scribe is
intelligible. There is, of course, a doubt; but it seems proper to suggest the probable error, and
endeavour to explain it. From other instances hereafter noted, it would seem that just at this
period the Register was rather negligently kept.
9 Letters of administration were granted to his relict Hannah Bates, 16 Feb. following.
10 His will, as William Morgan, of Westminster, Gent., dated 10 Jan. 1682-3, was proved
13 Feb. following, by his son-in-law William Fryer. He directed to be buried in the Cloisters.

was wife to Mr. Prewde, Clerk of St. Clement Danes. No other relationships are mentioned.

his sister, 23 May 1671.
1 Fourth son (second of this name) of Charles, second Lord Cornwallis, by Margaret, dau. of

Killigrew, Kt., Vice-Chamberlain to Q. Henrietta-Maria, by Mary, dau. of Sir Henry Woodhouse,
of Waxham, co. Norfolk, Kt., by Anne his wife, dau. of Sir Nicholas Bacon, Lord Keeper of the
Great Seal. He has hitherto erroneously been called a native of Hanworth, Midx., but he
appears to have been born in the parish of St. Margaret, Lothbury, London, where his father
resided, on the 7th of Feb. 1611-12, and where he was certainly baptized on the 20th of that
month. He became a Page to K. Charles I. in 1633, and was sometime Resident at Venice, but is
chiefly known from his intimate relations with K. Charles II. See his first wife's burial 5 Jan.
1637-8. By her he had only one son, Henry, born the 9th and baptized at St. Martin in the Fields
16 Apl. 1637, who also became a Groom of the Bedchamber, was his father's executor, and was
finally buried at St. Martin in the Fields 16 Dec. 1705. He married, secondly, at the Hague,
28 Jan. 1654-5, Charlotte, dau. of John de Hesse, of Holland, by whom he had four sons and two
daughters. She survived him, and letters of administration to her estate were granted 15 May
1716, when she must have been in her eighty-seventh year. as she was born 16 July 1629 (see
Dr. Howard's Monthly Miscellanea, i. 370). His will, dated the 15th, was proved 19 Mch.
1682-3. See the burials of his sisters, 9 July 1641, 10 Nov. 1677, and 4 Jan. 1680-1.

died 3 Apl. 1683, in her twenty-third year. See the burial of her only son 18 June 1727.
✦ One of the Gentlemen of the Chapel Royal, and a Minor Canon of Westminster. He was
admitted to the Chapel Royal 25 Oct. 1664, as a basse from Exeter." In his will, dated 6 July
and proved 10 Aug. 1683, he bequeathed "a small estate in co. Exon., in the College of St. Peter,
called the Kitchin, Buttry, and Organ Loft, there being 18 years to come." See the baptisms of
his children, May 1677 and 22 July 1680, and the burials, of his first wife 19 Sep. 1671, and of
his children 3 Oct. 1676, 12 Aug. 1679, 9 Sep. 1680, and 5 Aug. 1682: also the remarriage of his

1 The unofficial register says: "Mrs. Eliz: Tynchare bu: in ye North Cloysters." She was
the wife of the writer of the unofficial register so often quoted, who appears, strangely enough,
always to have written his own name "John Tinker alias Littleton." The inscription on her
monument, as given by Dart (ii. 132), says, Elizabeth, wife to Mr. John Tinchare," and that
she died 10 Aug. 1681 (clearly an error), in her sixty-fifth year. It also adds that her husband,
"John Littleton alias Tinchare," died 9 June 1694, aged sixty-five. This is probably correct, as
his own entries end 31 May in that year; but his will, dated 13 Sep. 1692, was not proved, in
the Court of the Dean and Chapter, until 31 Aug. 1696. He directed to be buried in the Cloisters
near his wife, and appears to have been so buried, but there is no record of it in the Abbey
Register. He was in holy orders, and was eldest son of Rev. Philip Tynchare, the preserver of
the early register, as stated on the first page (see his burial 12 May 1673). See the marriages, of
their son 24 Mch. 1680-1, and of their dau. 24 Nov. 1692, the burial of the latter 2 Nov. 1705,
and the baptism of another dau. 22 Jan. 1666-7.

³ Child of Jasper Paston (third son of Robert, first Earl of Yarmouth), by his wife Dame
Margery Fairborne (see her burial 9 June 1694). He was baptized at St. Martin in the Fields,
Midx., 2 Feb. 1683-4.
4 The unofficial register says: "Mrs. Sydney Bagenall bu: in ye Abby, by Esqr Thynne."
This is probably correct, and there can scarcely be a doubt that she was the first wife of
Nicholas Bagenall, of Newry, in Ireland, and of Plas-Newydd, Anglesey, Esq., M.P. for
Anglesey in 1661 (see the burial of his second wife 13 Mch. 1712-13, and of a son by her
9 Mch. 1687-8). The proof of this appears to be furnished by a record of the baptism, in the
parish register of St. Paul's, Covent Garden, 10 Sep. 1674, of Mary, dau. of Nicholas Bagenall.
Esq., and Dame Sydney his wife, and by the fact that, shortly after the date of this burial, Mr.
Bagenall married Lady Anne-Charlotte Bruce. Her identity is unknown, as she is not men-
tioned in the accounts of the family. This is a pertinent illustration of the value of the unofficial
register.
5 Frederick-Christian, second son of Charles, first Earl of Carlisle, by Anne, dau. of
Edward, first Lord Howard of Escrick. He was born at Copenhagen 5 Nov. 1664, and was slain
during the siege of Luxemburg. He died unmarried. (The unofficial register says that he was
buried 10 Oct.) See the burials of his brother and sister, 4 Apl. 1670 and 23 Mch. 1681-2.
6 (In the unofficial register only.) See his father's burial 14 Nov. 1696, and his mother's
3 Aug. 1727.
7 In the official Register is written, in pencil, "a singing man." He was one of the
"Musicians for the Violins " in the royal band of K. Charles I. as early as 20 Dec. 1625, and was
sworn a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal in 1638. He is mentioned as one of the choir of the
Abbey in Dr. Busby's accounts. The unofficial register says that he died 7 Nov. His will, as of
St. Margaret's, Westminster, Gent., dated 23 Sep. and proved 27 Nov. 1684, in the Court of the
Dean and Chapter, gives no clew to his family. He left his portrait to Viscount Newport, and
appointed Mr. Thomas Fordham and Mr. Thomas Morgan residuary legatees and executors.

second wife of, Sir Charles Coote, second Bart., who was created Earl of Mountrath, in the

and three daughters. She married, secondly, Sir Robert Reading, of Dublin, who was created a
Baronet of Ireland, 27 Aug. 1675, and who was buried at Newark, co. Notts, 25 Mch. 1689, by
whom she had an only child, Elizabeth, who married James Hamilton, sixth Earl of Abercorn
(sce her burial 22 Mch. 1754). Lodge, in his Peerage of Ireland, says that the Countess of
Mountrath "died 18 November 1684, and was buried at St. Michan's Church the 22nd ;" but
she was undoubtedly buried in the Abbey on the very day he states that she died. The unoffi-
cial register repeats the entry, and gives the place of her burial as neare Henry ye 3ds
monument," and there is no record of the removal of her remains, which, indeed, at that
period, could hardly have been accomplished in four days.

2 The unofficial register says "Cakewich." She was probably a servant.
He died
3 Wentworth Dillon, fourth Earl of Roscommon, the celebrated poet. He was son of
James, third Earl, by Elizabeth, youngest dau. of Sir William Wentworth, first Bart., and sister
of Thomas, the unfortunate Earl of Strafford. He married, first, Lady Frances Boyle, eldest
dau. of Richard, first Earl of Burlington, and widow of Colonel Courtney; and, secondly,
Isabella, youngest dau, and co-heir of Matthew Boynton, Esq. (second surviving son of Sir
Matthew Boynton, first Bart. of Barmston, co. York), who survived him. The license for the
latter marriage was granted by the Vicar-General 9 Nov. 1674, and his age is therein given as
about thirty, which, if correct, would make him considerably younger than has been hitherto
supposed. He was Captain of the Band of Gentlemen Pensioners, and Master of the Horse to
the Duchess of York. His will, dated 14 Jan. 1684-5, in which he merely bequeathed all his
estate to his wife Isabella, was proved by her on the 31st of the same month. The unofficial
register says that he was buried in the Abbey "ncare ye Shrine staires."
4 The unofficial register says: "Mrs. Lucey Bythel."
Letters of administration were
granted, 7 Feb. 1684-5, to the estate of Lucy Bithell, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, spinster,
to her sister Frances Lewis. See a burial 1 Dec. 1679.
Apparently, from his father's will, third and youngest son of Edward Laurence, citizen
and alderman of Chichester, by his wife Susan. He was baptized at St. Peter the Great (or
sub-deanery parish), Chichester, 18 July 1619, and was sometime Secretary to the Chancellor of
the Exchequer. He died 1 Feb. See the burials, of his wife 10 Sep. 1687, his son 23 July 1677,
and his dau. (Lady Anne Robinson) 13 Dec. 1690.

1 ¹ (In the unofficial reglster only.) See a marriage 1 July 1680, and burials 17 Sep. 1682
and 11 Oct. 1686, and notes thereto. She was probably the second wife of Anthony Wrightson
therein mentioned, as, on 16 Dec. 1683, "Anthony Wrightson and Ann Burges" were married in
the Temple Church.
2 The unofficial register says that she was buried in the "East cloyster neare Mr. Whicher."
3 (In the unofficial register only.) See the burials of (probably) his parents, 11 Dec. 1695
and 2 Nov. 1724.
(In the unofficial register only.) On an examination of the royal vault in 1868, a coffin-
plate was discovered, containing the following inscription, which sufficiently explains this
entry :—“James Darnley natural sonn to King James ye second Departed this life the 22 of
aprill 1685 Aged aBout eight Mounths." Even the existence of this child appears to have been
unknown, or, at all events, unnoticed in history. As the King, by letters patent, conferred the
name of Darnley on Catherine, his illegitimate child by Catherine Sidley, and considering the
date, there can be little doubt that he was the offspring of the same mother. On the 20th of
January following she was created Baroness of Darlington and Countess of Dorchester for life,
and, after the King's connection with her had ceased, she married David Colyear, who was
created Earl of Portmore, in the peerage of Scotland. She was dau. of Sir Charles Sidley, of
Aylesford, co. Kent, Bart., by his first wife, Catherine, third dau. of John, Earl Rivers. She died
at Bath, 26 Oct. 1717. See the burial of this child's sister, as the Duchess of Buckinghamshire,
8 Apl. 1743.
5 (In the unofficial register only.) See a burial 6 May 1692, in about the same locality.
6 The unofficial register says that he was buried 6 May, and "in Exeter Chappell." As this is
evidently identical with the Chapel of St. John the Baptist, in which John Vaughan, third Earl
of Carbery, was buried (see 28 Jan. 1712-13), it is most probable that this was his son George
(by his second wife Lady Anne Savile, dau, of George, first Marquis of Halifax), who was born
the 6th, and baptized at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 30 Oct. 1683, and who certainly died
young, as the Earl left only a daughter at his death.
7 Probably a sister of Rev. Dr. Knipe, Head Master of Westminster School (see his burial
9 Aug. 1711), and of Christopher Knipe (sce his burial 28 Apl. 1673). According to the
unofficial register, she was buried in the North Cloister, where Dr. Knipe and his family were all
buried. A Mary, dau. of Thomas Knipe, was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 25 Feb.
1635-6, about two years before the birth of Dr. Kuipe.
8 Eldest son of Sir Richard Graham, third Bart. of Esk and Netherby, created Baron
Graham and Viscount Preston 12 May 1681, by his wife Lady Anne Howard, second dau. of
Charles, first Earl of Carlisle. He was born in 1672. The unofficial register says that he was
buried in "Exeter [i.e., St. John the Baptist's] Chapel."
9. The inscription on his monument says that he was of Langford Hill, co. Cornwall, M.P.
for Camelford in that county, and that he died 24 June. The unofficial register says that he was
buried in the North Cloister.

Bucks, Esq., Secretary to the Treasury in 1695, and many years M.P., to whom she was married,
at St. Clement Danes, Midx., 25 Nov. 1683. In the Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. her age was given as
about twenty-two. The unofficial register says that she was buried in the North Cloister.
Her husband remarried twice, and was buried at Winslow 29 Jan. 1723-4 (see the burial of
his first wife 8 Nov. 1680). See the burial of her only child, Anne Jett, 29 Apl. 1721.
2 The unofficial register says: "Mrs. Elianor Villers bu: by ye Old Lady Villers." She
was dau. of Sir Edward Villiers, Kt., ancestor of the Earls of Jersey (who died 7 Sep. 1626,
while Lord President of Munster, and was buried in St. Mary's Church, Youghal), by his
wife Barbara, eldest dau. of Sir John St. John, of Lydiard Tregoz, Wilts, Kt. (see her burial
16 Sep. 1672). She died unmarried, and her will, dated 26 Sep. 1684, was proved 29 July 1685,
by her brother George, Viscount Grandison, and her niece Anne, Countess of Marshall. See the
baptisms of her brothers and sister, 8 Apl. 1619, 15 Apl. 1620, and 1 June 1622, and the burial
of her brother 2 July 1689.
³ Second dau. of James, Duke of Monmouth, by Lady Anne Scott, and born 17 Sep. 1675.
She died in the Tower of London. See her brother's burial 10 Feb. 1673-4, and note thereto, and
the burials, of another brother 6 Dec. 1679, and of her sister 5 Sep. 1683. The unofficial register
says that she was buried "in Monmouth's vault, privately."
4 Eldest dau. of Edward, second Earl of Carlisle, by Elizabeth, dau. and coheir of Sir
William Uvedale, of Wickham, Hants, Kt., and widow of Sir William Berkeley, Kt., third son of
Charles, Viscount Fitzharding. She was born in 1668, and died unmarried. Brydges's edition
of Collins's Peerage erroneously gives the year of her death as 1695. The unofficial register says
that she was buried 17 Aug. See the burials of her sister and brother, 3 Nov. 1694 and 24 July
1701.
5 The unofficial register says: "Mrs. Anne Knipe junior." She was the first wife of
Rev. Dr. Thomas Knipe, Prebendary of Westminster and Head-Master of Westminster School
(sce his burial 9 Aug. 1711). She died 24 Aug. From the wills of her husband and her son
Richard, she appears to have been a sister, either of Bishop Sprat (sce his burial 25 May 1713), or,
more probably, of his wife (see her burial 3 Mch. 1725-6). See the baptism of her son 24 Mch.
1668-9, and the burials of her sons, 24 Feb. 1670-1, 4 Nov. 1674, 26 Jan. 1677-8, and 22 Feb.
1702-3, and of her daughter, Anne Arnold, 30 Sep. 1703.
6 Letters of administration were granted to her brother Matthew Madgett, 2 Oct. 1685, when
she was described as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, spinster. The unofficial register says she
was buried in the South Cloister.
7 Probably wife of James Amos, the College gardener (see his burial 14 Mch. 1699-1700).
The unofficial register says she was buried in the West Cloister, where he was also buried.
8 The unofficial register says that he was buried "neare ye Earle of Essex." He has come down
to us in history as the almost solitary instance of a successful gamester who suddenly abandoned
his profession, and became a worthy gentleman and useful citizen. It is related that, having in
one night won a sum sufficient to ensure him an estate worth £1500 a year, he never tempted
fortune again, but acquired a positive aversion to both cards and dice. His name has been
preserved in the well-known Panton Street, Haymarket. His son Thomas became a Licut.-
General in 1735, and his dau. Elizabeth married Henry, fifth Lord Arundel of Wardour.

peerage, 13 May 1662, and Baron Butler, of Weston, in the peerage of England, in 1673. He
married, first, Lady Mary Stuart, dau. of James, first Duke of Richmond and fourth of Lennox,

Elizabeth, Barbara, Frances, Anne, Mary, William, and Rachel, all in their minority. He held a

¹ Rightly Blyth. See the baptism of his mother 11 July 1665, and note thereto. The
unofficial register says that he was buried in the South Cloister. See the burials of his brother
and sister, 16 Apl. 1690 and 7 Aug. 1701.
2 The unofficial register gives the same name, and says that he was buried in the West
Cloister. He does not occur in any of the known lists of knights or baronets, and no will or
record of administration of his estate has been discovered.
3 See a marriage 1 July 1680, and burials 17 Sep. 1682 and 4 Mch. 1684-5, and notes thereto.
The unofficial register says that she was buried in the South Cloister.
4 His will, as of St. Martin in the Fields, dated 21 Oct., was proved 19 Nov. 1686, by his
friend Henry Guy, Esq., residuary legatee. The only relations he mentioned were his sisters,
Elizabeth, wife of William Savill, Esq., and Bridget Naylor. He left considerable legacies to
Bishop Sprat and his son Thomas, and rings to numerous persons of rank, including the Lord
Chancellor, the Master of the Rolls, Lord Dartmouth, etc., and £20 to Lord Castleton out of a
sum due to him from the Duke of Buckingham. The unofficial register says that he was buried
in the West Cloister.
5 The unofficial register says that he was buried in the South Cloister.
6 See the burials, of her husband 14 Feb. 1676-7, and of her daughters, 9 Feb. 1675-6 and
17 Apl. 1686. Her will, dated 4 Jan., was proved, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 15 Feb.
1686-7, by her son Timothy Waldron. Her other surviving children were Henry, Thomas, and
Agnes. She also mentioned her sister Ingram.
7 Third but second living child of Prince George of Denmark (see his burial 13 Nov. 1708),
by the Princess, afterwards Queen Anne (see her burial 24 Aug. 1714). She was born at
Windsor 12 May 1686. She died 2 Feb., and was buried in the royal vault. See a burial
13 May 1684.
8 Second but eldest living child of Prince George of Denmark (see his burial 13 Nov. 1708),
by the Princess, afterwards Queen Anne (see her burial 24 Aug. 1714). She was born at White-
hall 2 June 1685. She died 8 Feb., and was buried in the royal vault. See a burial 13 May 1684.
9 Eldest child of Walter James, Esq., by his wife Anne (sec her burial 13 Feb. 1672-3,
and note thereto), in whose will she is mentioned. She was baptized at St. Margaret's, West-
minster, 12 Oct. 1616, and married a Mr. Fox, by whom she had surviving issue two sons, James
and Daniel. Her will, dated 28 Mch. 1687, was proved the following day, by James St. Amand,
of London, Esq., and Thomas Grundy, of Westminster, Gent., whom she called her nephews, and
whom her mother, in her will, named as grandchildren. This identification is the more
important because Brydges, in his edition of Collins's Peerage (iv. 537), strangely confounded
her with Margaret, an unmarried daughter of Sir Stephen Fox.
10 Fifth dan. of Richard Boyle, first Earl of Burlington, by Lady Elizabeth Clifford, dau. and
heir of Henry, fifth and last Earl of Cumberland, and wife of Lawrence Hyde, first Earl of
Rochester (see his burial 10 May 1711). See the burials of her daughters, 3 June 1730 and

1 The unofficial register says: "Tho: Howard bu: under ye Arch by ye Almesmen." Mr.,

2 Only son of Major-General Randolph Egerton (see his burial 5 Nov. 1681), by his second
wife, Elizabeth, dau. of Henry Murray, Esq. (sce her burial 13 Feb. 1712-13). He was born the

3 See her father's burial 27 Jan. 1685-6. Her mother administered to her estate, as an
infant, 19 Dec. 1688. The unofficial register says that she was buried near her brother, Lord
Tullogh (see his burial 10 Oct. 1676).
* George Villiers, only surviving son of George, first Duke of Buckingham (sce his burial
18 Sep. 1628), by Lady Catherine Manners, only dau. and heir of Francis, sixth Earl of Rutland.
He was born 30 Jan., and baptized at Wallingford House 14 Feb. 1627-8, and a few months later
succceded as second Duke. He died at a tenant's house in Kirkby-Moorside, co. York, 16 Apl. in
this year, and was buried the next day in the parish church there, his remains being subse-
quently removed to the Abbey. The unofficial register says that he was buried in his own vault.
Dying without legitimate issue, the title became extinct. Sec the burials, of his Duchess 30 Oct.
1704, his brothers 17 Mch. 1626-7 and 10 July 1648, and his sister 28 Nov. 1685.
5 See her husband's burial 10 Apl. 1686. Edward White, Gent., an overseer of her husband's
will, administered to her estate, 18 Aug. following, as curator of her minor son Charles.
6 Evidently one of the fashionable courtezans of her time, whose identity it is difficult to
determine, or even whether she had any right to the names she borc. There seems, however,
good reason to suppose that she was a dau. of George Kirk, the notorious Groom of the Bed-
chamber to K. Charles II. (for particulars of whom see the note to the burial of Diana, Countess
of Oxford, 16 Apl. 1719), by his wife Anne, dau. of Sir Robert Killigrew (sec her burial 9 July
1641). Mrs. Kirke's mother, then Dame Mary Stafford, in her will dated 22 Sep. 1656, left £100
to "the Ladie Lucie Saunders," without naming any relationship; but the Viscountess Shannon
(see her burial 4 Jan. 1680-1), who was a sister of Mrs. Kirke, in her will dated 27 July 1680,
left £300 to her "niece Lady Lucy Sandys." Besides, she was buried "near the font," the
precise description in the Register of the burial place of Mrs. Kirke. She was the first witness to
Nell Gwyn's will, and signed her name "Lucy Hamilton Sandys." In one of Nell Gwyn's bills
for sedan chairs, dated 13 Oct. 1675, there is this item: "For careing one Lady Sanes to ye play
at Whitehall, and wayting, 0. 3. 6." The Earl of Rochester mentioned "the good Lady Sands"
in one of his most filthy poems, in 1678. Letters of administration were granted, 15 Aug. 1687,
to the estate of "Lady Lucy Sandys," late of St. James, Westminster, to Frances, Countess
Dowager of Portland, as principal creditor. This is all that has been discovered respecting her
history, and is, perhaps, quite as much as is necessary, or would be profitable.
7 His will, in which he describes himself as "John Chrisostome Sharole, of St. Margaret's,
Westminster, Clerk, Master of Arts, Chaplain of the regiment of horse commanded by the
Right Hon. James, Earl of Arran, one of the Gentlemen in H.M.'s Chapel Royal at Whitchall,
and one of the four Petticanons of Westminster Abbey," is dated 23 July 1687, and was proved
25 Aug. following, by his relict Janc, to whom he left all his estate, cxcept £100 which was to be
given to Elizabeth, dau. of Simon Beranger, of London, merchant. The inscription on his
monument calls him one of the King's Chaplains, and says that he died 5 Aug., aged forty. The
unofficial register says that he was buried in the East Cloister. He appears to be identical with
"John Du Charol, Clerk," who, with Jane his wife, among many others, was naturalized in
England, under royal letters patent, 4 Apl. 1685. He had, however, then been in England for
some years, as, according to the Cheque Book of the Chapel Royal, he was sworn a Gentleman
26 Oct. 1676.

married Catharine, dau. and heir of Sir Miles Stapleton, Kt., who survived him and remarried
John Hopton, Esq. His will, dated 10 June 1687, was proved 16 Aug. following, by his
brother Sir Richard (see his burial 11 May 1689), to whom he left all his estate. He left no
issue by his wife, but his illegitimate sou, Thomas Newsham alias Mauleverer, was well
provided for in the will of his brother Sir Richard.
3 Her name is erroneously "Anne" in both registers. and should be Amey. She is so
called in the records of her baptism and marriage, and in her husband's will, and she so signed
her own will. She was dau. of Richard Williams, Esq., by Emily, dau. of William Till, Esq.. all
of the city of Chichester, and was baptized at St. Peter the Great (or sub-deanery parish) in
that city, 19 Sep. 1626. She married, at St. Olave's, Old Jewry, London, 27 May 1653, John
Laurence, Esq. (sce his burial 3 Feb. 1684-5). See the burials, of her sou 23 July 1677, and her
dau. (Lady Anne Robinson) 13 Dec. 1690. Another dau., Amey, was baptized at St. Olave's,
Chichester, 13 May 1660.
In Ashmolean MS. (Bod. Lib.) 856, p. 371, is a copy of his patent, dated 24 Jan. 1661-2. as
Serjeant Trumpeter," or "Serjeant of all Trumpeters, Drummers, and Fifes." He is else-
where called "Serjeant of the Office of Trumpets and Gentleman of the Bows to K. Chas. II."
It was said, on his monument, that he died 11 Sep., in his 59th year, but in his marriage
allegation, 7 Dec. 1660, his age was then given as 30, and he was described as of the city of
Westminster, Gent. In his will, dated 5 June 1686, with a codicil 11 Sep. 1687. he is called of
St. Martin in the Fields, Esq. It was proved, 22 Dec. 1687, by his sister-in-law Mary Lucy (see
her burial 15 Jan. 1708-9), and his brother-in-law John Cooke, Esq. (see his burial 21 Sep. 1691),
and again, 18 Sep. 1689, by his cldest son Gervase Price, who had then attained his majority.

but she died of small-pox, 20 Sep. 1687, at 3 a.m.-the saddest day my wife and I ever saw
(Bishop Patrick's Autobiography). She was buried near Dean Goodman's monument.
See his father's burial 26 Nov. 1695, and his mother's 14 Feb. 1705-6. He was baptized
at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 9 June 1687. The unofficial register says that he was buried in
the East Cloister.
7 First son and fourth child of Prince George of Denmark (see his burial 13 Nov. 1708), by
the Princess, afterwards Queen Anne (sec her burial 24 Aug. 1714). The Funeral Book says:
"Fetus masculi abortivi." The term "chrisome in the text is clearly a misnomer.
3 He entered St. Peter's College, Westminster, in 1686, and was perhaps a brother of George
Merrill, who was admitted the following year, and who matriculated at Oxford, in 1690, as son
of Rev. Joseph Merrill, Rector of Magdalen-Laver, co. Essex.

1712-13). He was born and baptized, at St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., 31 Dec. 1687. A monu-
mental inscription states that he died 7 Mch., having been unfortunately overlaid by his nurse.
(One Frances Dobbs, in her will dated 26 Sep. 1692, then of Greenford Magna, Midx., left all
her possessions to Lady Anne-Charlotte, the mother of this child, and requested that she might
be buried as near him as possible. It seems probable that she was the unhappy nurse mentioned

ordinarye,” and he appears to have been again sworn into the same office 23 Mch. 1684-5. His
will, as of the city of Westminster, Gent., dated 25 Jan. 1688-9, was proved 21 Mch. following, in
the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by the relict Elizabeth (see their marriage 18 May 1665, and
note thereto). See also his daughter's marriage 10 Apl. 1683, and the burials of his children,
20 Sep. 1667, 7 Jan. 1668-9, 8 June 1671, 24 Feb. 1671-2, 19 Aug. 1675, 14 and 24 Aug. 1676,
9 Mch. 1678-9, 11 Sep. 1679, 1 Oct. 1681, 10 Aug. 1686, and 12 Oct. 1730. He died 5 Feb., and
was buried in the North Cloister.
9 Eldest son of James Butler, second Duke of Ormond (see his burial 22 May 1746), by his
second wife, Lady Mary Somerset (see her burial 25 Nov. 1733). He was born the 24th, and
baptized at St. James, Westminster, 27 Sep. 1686. Lord Clarendon's Diary (Singer's Corre-
spondence, ii. 265) says that he died on Tuesday morning, 26 Feb.

1 Probably Martha, dau. of John Acton, of Worcestershire. Esq.. and wife of Sir William
Hayward, of Tandridge Hall, co. Surrey, Kt., one of the Gentlemen of the Privy Chamber in
ordinary to Kings Charles I. and II., James II., and William. If so, they were married at Christ
Church Cathedral, Oxford, 4 Sep. 1643. She was certainly living in 1681, when she joined with
her husband and son William in the conveyance of Tandridge Hall. The unofficial register says
that she was buried in the West Cloister.
""
2 The unofficial register gives the same Christian name, but that of Aphara was placed
on the stone which covers her remains in the East Cloister, which has been recently recut.
"Astræa was a fictitious name used by her in her correspondence, and was perhaps unneces-
sarily perpetuated by Pope in his well-known severely satirical couplet. Little is known of her
family history, and the doubt has been recently expressed that she was entitled to the surname
she bore. It has been said that she was a native of Canterbury, dau. of a Mr. Johnson, a relative
of Lord Willoughby, who obtained his appointment as Lieut.-General of Surinam, and that he
died on his passage thither. It is also said that, after various experiences of no very creditable
sort, she married a Mr. Behn, a London merchant of Dutch extraction. Of her social position
and literary abilities it is unnecessary to speak. She has taken a certain place in history, and
seems likely to keep it. It must, however, always be a reflection upon the judgment and good
taste of Bishop Sprat, then Dean of Westminster, first, that he permitted her interment in the
Abbey ground at all, and, secondly, that he gave his assent to the extravagant doggerel cut upon
her grave-stone.
3 Younger son of Sir Richard Mauleverer, second Bart. of Allerton-Mauleverer, co. York (see
his burial 25 July 1675), by Anne, dau. of Sir Robert Clerke, Kt. He succeeded his brother Sir
Thomas (see his burial 13 Aug. 1687) as fourth Bart. He married (Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 10 Apl.
1688) Barbara, dau. of Sir Thomas Slingsby, second Bart. of Scriven, who survived him and
remarried, first, John, sccond Lord Arundel of Trerice, and, secondly, Thomas, eighth Earl of
Pembroke and fifth Earl of Montgomery. See his son's burial 27 Mch. 1713.
4 See the marriage of his parents 24 Mch. 1680-1, and his own baptism 20 May 1689.
5 His will, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Esq,, dated 5 June 1689, was proved the 29th
of the same month, by the relict Dame Catherine Heath alias Croone (see her burial 30 May
1694). In his marriage license (Faculty Office), dated 27 June 1681, he was called a bachelor,
aged about fifty-seven. The unofficial register says that he was buried in the West Cloister.
6 See a marriage 6 Nov. 1679, and burials 16 May 1690. 26 June 1726, and 11 May 1729.
The unofficial register says that she was buried in the North Cloister.
7 The unofficial register omits the prefix, and says that he was buried in the South Cloister.
See a burial 23 May 1640.
8 Perhaps a grandson of Thomas, Archbishop of York. A Thomas Lamplugh, Esq., was one
of the Gentlemen of the Privy Chamber to K. Charles II. in 1668.
9 See his baptism 15 Apl. 1620. He was youngest son of Sir Edward Villiers, Kt., by Barbara,
eldest dau. of Sir John St. John, of Lydiard-Tregoz, Wilts, Kt. (see her burial 16 Sep. 1672), and
younger brother of the Viscounts Grandison. He was a colonel in the army, knighted 7 Apl.
1680, and the following year became Knight-Marshal of the Royal Houschold. The Funeral Book
says that he was buried in the North aisle, over against the Chapel of St. John the Baptist. See
the burial of his first wife 27 Nov. 1677, and his second marriage 25 Feb. 1683-4 also the

Martha, 8 July 1689.
1 Only surviving son of George Monk, first Duke of Albemarle (see his burial 29 Apl. 1670),
by Anne, dau. of John Clarges (see her burial 28 Feb. 1699-70), and is said to have been born in
1653. He was appointed Governor of Jamaica in 1687, and died there 6 Oct. 1688, without
surviving issue, and the title became extinct. See his wife's burial 11 Sep. 1734. (See a curious
account of his origin in Burke's Extinct Peerage, edit. 1866, p. 371.)
2 Lady Alice Egerton, eleventh but eighth surviving dau. of John, first Earl of Bridgewater,
by Lady Frances Stanley, second dau. and coheir of Ferdinando, fifth Earl of Derby. She
became the third wife of Richard Vaughan, second Earl of Carbery, who died in 1687. The
unofficial register says that she was buried in "Exeter Chapel." According to Warton, an
incident in the early life of this lady led to the production of Milton's "Comus.”
See the burial, probably of her husband, 11 Feb. 1690-1. The unofficial register says that
she was buried in the East Cloister.
4 Elizabeth, dau. of Sir Justinian Isham, second Bart. of Lamport, co. Northampton, by his
first wife, Jane, dau. of Sir John Garrard, first Bart. of Lamer, Herts. She became the second
wife of Sir Nicholas L'Estrange, second Bart. of Hunstanton, co. Norfolk, who died in 1669.
See the burial of her sister 22 May 1679. They were twins, and were born 27 Aug. 1636. The
unofficial register says that she was buried "by her sister."
5 On her monument, as preserved by Dart (ii. 129), she is called dau. of Gabriel and Ann
Jones, and is said to have died 11 Aug., aged thirteen years and eight months. The unofficial
register says that she was buried in the South Cloister.
• The unofficial register says that she was buried in the South Cloister.
7 See her marriage 30 Apl. 1673, and note thereto. She was buried "by Sir Edward
Spragg," according to the unofficial register, i.e., in the North aisle.
• The inscription on her coffin plate, preserved in one of the Funeral Books, reads thus :
"The Rt. Hon. Martha, Lady Lansdowne, 5th dau. of Thomas, Marquis of Carmarthen, died
11 Sep. 1689, in her 25th year." She was dau. of Sir Thomas Osborne, afterwards first Duke of
Leeds, by Lady Bridget Bertie, second dau. of Montague, second Earl of Lindsey, and married,
at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 22 May 1678, Charles Granville, commonly called Lord
Lansdowne, who succeeded in 1701 as second Earl of Bath, but was accidentally killed
twelve days after his father's death (see the burial of his son [by his second wife] 24 May 1711).
She was buried in the Chapel of St. Nicholas. She left no issue, but the Funeral Book men-
tioned states that her coffin was exposed in 1713, and another found, with this inscription :
"The Hon. Mrs. Elizabeth Granville, dau. of Charles, Lord Lansdowne "-doubtless her child,
whom Dart (ii. 58) confounded with herself.
9 Sister of Gervase Price (see his burial 15 Sep. 1687) and of Mary Lucy (see her burial 15
Jan. 1708-9), and wife of John Cooke, Esq. (see his burial 21 Sep. 1691). See also the burials of
her daughters, 22 Feb. 1711-12, 23 Mch. 1731-2, and 23 Dec. 1754, and the marriage of one

the College of Arms (I. ix. 139) describes her as dau. of Thomas Clarvox, of Parson's Green,
Midx. Her will, dated 5 Feb. 1688-9, was proved 17 Oct. following, by her "nephew" John
Goodwin (see his burial 10 July 1693), and her "niece" Frances Frost (see her burial, as
Frances Goodall, 20 Feb. 1705-6); but they appear rather to have been nephew and niece of her
husband. She left all her estate, including a house and land in Teddington, Midx., and several
houses in Westminster, to her husband's relations, and did not mention one of her own. The
unofficial register says that she was buried in the North Cloister.
1 Rightly Biddulph. See her marriage 31 Dec. 1678, and note thereto. The unofficial
register says that she was buried "att Sr Ed: Spragg's Head," i.e., in the North aisle. (This
entry, in the official Register, stands immediately after that of Lady Lansdowne, while in the
unofficial one the date is given as 15 October, and the entry follows that of Mrs. Blagrave.
There can be little doubt that there was an inadvertent error in the official Register, and that it
should read "Oct. 15.")
2 Lady Elizabeth Cecil, dau. of William, second Earl of Salisbury, by Lady Catherine
Howard, youngest dau. of Thomas, first Earl of Suffolk. She married William Cavendish, third
Earl of Devonshire, who died at Roehampton, co. Surrey, 23 Nov. 1684, and was buried at
Derby. She died 19 Nov. Her son William was created Duke of Devonshire (see his wife's
burial 6 Aug. 1710).
³ On opening this vault, in 1868, an infant's coffin was found, on the plate of which was the
following inscription : The Right Honourable ye Lady Elizabeth Powlett, Daughter of his
Grace Charles, Duke of Bolton, Died the 25th day of Nov', Anno Domini 1689." Charles
Powlett (or Paulett), sixth Marquis of Winchester, had been created Duke of Bolton on the 9th
of April in this year. This child was evidently by his second wife, Mary, one of the three
illegitimate daughters of Emanuel Scrope, Earl of Sunderland, by his servant Martha Jeanes.
4 See the marriage of her parents 22 Dec. 1687, her mother's baptism 6 June 1666, and the
burials, of her father 15 July 1690, and of her brother 3 Mch. 1688-9.
• He was sworn a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal 26 Apl. 1671, and was also one of the
choir of the Abbey. See his marriage 18 Nov. 1683. He died 8 Feb., and was buried in the
East Cloister, near the Library door. See the burial, perhaps of his brother, 15 May 1718.
6 Rightly Annesley. See his father's burial, as Lord Altham, 25 Nov. 1701. He was the
first child of this name, but his baptism is not recorded in the Abbey Register. He was buried
in St. Benedict's Chapel.
7 The unofficial register says that she was buried "by her husband." See his burial 5 Apl.
1679; also her marriage 14 Apl. 1668 (where called "Elionor "), and the burial of, probably, her
son 7 May 1686.
8 He is mentioned as one of the choir, in Dr. Busby's accounts, in 1664. The unofficial
register says that he was buried in the South Cloister. See a marriage, probably of his dau.,
24 Apl. 1679.

brother Col. Evan Lloyd (see his burial 8 Nov. 1714).

marriage 6 Nov. 1679, and burials 17 June 1689, 26 June 1726, and 11 May 1729. (The pro-
bability is that the marriage was her own, and the first burial that of her daughter.)
3 His will, as of the College of St. Peter, Westminster, "butler," dated 5 May 1690, was
proved 3 June following, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by his relict Jane. He left
bequests to his brother Thomas Harrison and his wife, and to his niece Jane Smith and her
mother his sister. The unofficial register says that he was buried in the middle of the West
Cloister. See a burial 15 July 1720.
4 See his marriage 22 Dec. 1687, and the burials of his children, 3 Mch. 1688-9 and 5 Jan.

thereto), by his second wife, the Lady Anne Scott, Duchess of Monmouth and Buccleuch, widow
of the unfortunate James, Duke of Monmouth, to whom he was married, at St. Martin in the
Fields, Midx., 6 May 1688, and who died 6 Feb. 1731-2. This child was baptized, at St. Martin in
the Fields, 27 Apl. 1690. See her brother's burial 27 May 1693.
6 The inscription on his monument states that he was one of the Gentlemen Ushers and
Daily Waiter to Kings Charles II. and James II.; that he descended from the ancient family of
the Earls of Ancrum; that he married Venetia, sole dau. and heir of Edward Carew, Esq., by
whom he had issue one son, Henry, and four daughters, viz., Elizabeth, Anna-Sophia, Alena-
Maria, and Carew; and that he died 25 Aug. 1690, in his thirty-eighth year. The family name
of the Earls of Ancrum was Ker, or Kerr; but wherever his name is found it is written Carr,
as in the Abbey Register and on his monument. His wife Venetia was the only child of Edward
Carew, of Newbold-Pacey, co. Warwick, Esq., and is mentioned in his will, dated 29 Oct. 1668,
as then unmarried, and not eighteen years of age. She administered to her husband's estate
9 Sep. 1690, when he was described as of St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., Esq. See the burial
of their son 30 Mch. 1699. Their daughters Elizabeth and Ann-Sophia were baptized, at
St. Margaret's, Westminster, 17 Sep. 1682; Alena-Maria was baptized there 7 Jan. 1688-9;
and another dau., Venetia, was baptized there 7 July 1680, but is not named on the monument.
The youngest dau. was baptized, at St. Giles in the Fields, 8 Feb. 1689-90 (born the day before),
and was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 28 Nov. 1692.
7 Her will, as Sarah Hughes, scrvant to Mr. Thomas Knipe, of St. Margaret's, Westminster,
dated 12 Aug. 1690, was proved 25 Nov. following, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by
Mr. Knipe, who was then Under-Master of Westminster School (see his burial 9 Aug. 1711).
Having bequeathed her apparel, etc., to her elder sister Jane Smith, she left £80 to Mrs. Knipe
and Dr. Pelling (one of the Prebendaries), to be expended in plate for the use of the Abbey. See
a burial 10 Nov. 1668.
8 Fourth dau. and sixth child of Prince George of Denmark (sce his burial 13 Nov. 1708),
by the Princess, afterwards Queen Anne (see her burial 24 Aug. 1714). Luttrell, in his Diary
(ii. 116), says that she was born the same day, lived about two hours, was christened, and buried
privately in the Abbey. The unofficial register says that she was buried in the royal vault.

bequeathed to them his houses, etc., in St. James, Westminster. and his lease of the tithes of
Bishopstone, co. Sussex.
3 Rightly Annesley. (The date in Collectanca is erroneously 3 Dec.) See his baptism 31 Oct.
1689, and his father's burial, as Lord Altham, 25 Nov. 1701. He was buried in St. Benedict's
Chapel.
4 (Collectanea erroneously gives the date 6 Nov.) Dau. of Charles Godolphin, Esq. (see his

9th, and baptized at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 12 Aug. 1688. She died 8 Dec. See her

2 Aug. 1688, William Foulis, Esq., who succeeded, after her death, as fourth Bart. of Ingleby, co.
York. See the baptisms of her children by her first husband, 14 July 1681 and 5 Oct. 1682, and
her brother's burial 23 July 1677. Her only son by her second husband succeeded his father, in
Oct. 1741, as fifth Bart. of Ingleby.
6 Wife of Alphonso Marsh, Gentleman of the Royal Chapel (see his burial 9 Apl. 1692).
The unofficial register gives the same Christian name, but in the parish register of St. Margaret's,
Westminster, is the baptism, 11 Sep. 1685, of " Mary, dau. of Alfonso and Cicilia Marsh."
7 See the burial, probably of his wife, 30 July 1689.
8 The unofficial register gives the same surname, but on his monument he was called John
Jennings, Esq., and said to have died 2 Mch., aged seventy-three. His relict Susanna admin-
istered to his estate 2 Apl. 1691, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, and in the record the

9 Perhaps related to Richard Smalbroke, Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry (see his widow's
burial 15 Mch. 1765), who was at this date about twenty years old. A John Smalbroke matri-
culated at Oxford, from Exeter College, 16 July 1664, aged seventeen, as son of Richard
Smalbroke, of Droitwich, co. Worcester, Gent., but appears not to have taken a degree.
10 On his gravestone, which was before the Library door, he was called "Master of Music,"
and said to have died 23 Mch., aged sixty-three. His will, as of St. Andrew's, Holborn,
Midx., Gent., dated 25 Feb. 1690-1, then residing in the house of Johu Yarling, in Baldwin's

Having been used for the interment of Cromwell's family, it passed, after their remains had been
ejected, to the family of the unfortunate Duke of Monmouth, and was still later appropriated to
the family of the Duke of Ormond, being ever since known as the "Ormond Vault."
4 His name appears in a list of the twelve Abbey almsmen, in the Chapter Book, dated
5 June 1688.
5 Second son of George Bridgeman, of Nympsfield, co. Gloucester, Esq. (eldest son of Sir
John Bridgeman, Kt., Chief-Justice of Chester), by Heveningham his wife. His will, dated
6 Apl. 1691, was proved 2 July following. Besides his own family, he provided for his "natural
daughter" Sarah, then wife of Edward Liver. The unofficial register says that he was buried
near the Vestry. Collectanea gives the date erroneously 18 June. See the burial of his brother's
widow 2 Mch. 1663-4.
6 The unofficial register says " Mr. Thorrogood Mutas." Sec the burial, probably, of his
wife 20 Sep. 1694.- Baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 9 Sep. 1658, "Throwgood, son
of Arthur and Elizabeth Meawtys."-Married at St. Marylebonc, Midx., 16 Feb. 1687-8,
Thorowgood Meautys and Mary Adams."-Baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 9 Aug.
1691, "Elizabeth dau. of Thorowgood Mewtis, deceased, and Mary his wife." Both he and his
wife appear to have died intestate.
7 The unofficial register prefixes "Mrs.," and says that she was buried 16 July. See her
baptism 27 Dec. 1675, her father's burial 23 July 1714, and her mother's 16 May 1718.
8 See a baptism 26 July 1668, and a burial 17 July 1674, in the same locality.
9 Eldest son of Sir Peter Apsley, of Apsley, co. Sussex, Kt., Cofferer to K. James II., by his
first wife (see her burial 7 Sep. 1681, and note thereto). According to the inscription on his
monument, he died 5 Aug., in his eleventh year.
10 (Collectanea crroneously says "Mr. Ste. Fox.") The inscription on his monument describes
him as "Thomas Fox, Esq., Receiver-General of their Majesties Customs," and states that he died
18 Aug., in his twenty-seventh year. According to a pedigree in Hoare's History of Wiltshire,
he was son of John Fox, only surviving son of John Fox, Clerk of the Acatry to K. Charles II.
(see his burial 23 Nov. 1691), and consequently great nephew of Sir Stephen Fox. The arms, as

noticing his death, as "treasurer of the custome house," says that he
into that place."
1 Rightly de Bréval. See his baptism 4 Jan. 1690-1, his father's burial 29 Jan. 1707-8, and
his mother's July 1719. The unofficial register says that he was buried behind the organ.
2 Relict of Col. Robert Phillips, probably the one mentioned in Luttrell's Diary (i. 367),
under the date of 18 Dec. 1685, thus: "His majestic hath appointed the lord Tiviot, col. Robert
Phillips, and John Evelyn of Deptford, esq., commissioners to execute the office of lord privy seal
during the absence of the earl of Clarendon, lord licutenant of Ireland." According to a herald
painter's work-book in the College of Arms (5 I. B., p. 28), his arms, on a hatchment ordered after
her death, were those of l'hillips of Iver, co. Bucks, and hers were those of Dallender of Sussex.
The unofficial register says that she was buried " before yº Quire dore.” See the burials of her
children 16 and 29 May 1677, and notes thereto. Another dau.. Elizabeth. was baptized at
St. Paul's, Covent Garden, 7 Dec. 1662, and two daughters, whose names are not given in the
parish register, one of whom was perhaps this Elizabeth, were buried at Acton, Midx., 13 Mch.
1666-7 and 11 Mch. 1670-1. In the record of the baptism of the dau. Frances, at Acton, 8 Aug.
1664, the father is described as the "Right Hon. Col. Robert Phillips."
3 The inscription on his gravestone stated that he died 19 Sep., in his seventy-eighth year.
He became Latin Secretary to K. Charles II. in Dec. 1681 (Luttrell's Diary, i. 153). See his wife's
burial 9 Oct. 1689, his daughter's marriage 10 Feb. 1699-1700, and the burials of his only three
daughters, 22 Feb. 1711-12, 23 Mch. 1731-2, and 23 Dec. 1754. His will was proved 23 Nov. 1691,
by his only son William.
4 Rightly Boraston. See her husband's burial 10 Feb. 1644-5. Letters of administration to
her estate were granted, by the Court of the Dean and Chapter. 14 Oct. 1691, to Anne Adams, her
next of kin (see her burial 15 July 1710).
5 See the burials, probably of her children, 24 July 1675 and 6 June 1681.
..
6 The inscription on her gravestone, as preserved by Dart (ii. 131), was as follows: Here
lies the body of Bridget Holmes, widow, who died October 23, 1691, aged 100 years ou St. Luke's
Eve last, and served King Charles I. and II., King James II., and King William." If true, she
lived six days over a century.
7 Elder brother of Sir Stephen Fox, Kt., and eldest surviving son of William Fox, of Farley,
Wilts, by Margaret (or Elizabeth), dau. of Thomas Pavey, of Plaitford, Wilts.
He was Clerk
of the Acatry" to K. Chas. II., and, according to the inscription on his gravestone, died 19 Nov..
in his cightieth year. He married Elizabeth, dau. of Henry Smart, of Plymouth, co. Devon (see,
probably, her burial 2 Jan. 1796-7). See his daughter's marriage 18 May 1665, and the burial of
another 22 June 1729; also his sister's burial 3 Sep. 1710.
8 The inscription on her gravestone, as given by Dart (ii. 128), states that she was the
widow of Francis Jones, of co. Wilts, Gent., and died 18 Jan., in her seventy-fifth year. Her
dau. Elizabeth Joues, spinster, administered to her estate 28 July 1693. Mrs. Cecilia Jones was
one of the Rockers to the Princess Anne in 1673, and the person named in the text was buried
by the side of others who had held positions about the Court. Probably they were identical.

2 The unofficial register gives the same surname, but it may be questioned if it should not be
Jewkes. Rowland Jewkes, of the Inner Temple, Esq. (one of the executors of the celebrated
Selden), in his will, dated 22 Aug. 1663, left considerable legacies to his nephew Rowland
Jewkes, son of his brother Thomas, who was probably the same Rowland Jewkes who was
admitted to the Inner Temple 30 June 1648, as son and heir apparent of Thomas Jewkes, of
Downton, co. Salop, Gent. One Rowland Jewkes, Esq., was a Gentleman of the Privy Chamber
to K. Chas. II. in 1675.
3 He appears to have been the only son of Alphonso Marsh, Gentleman of the Chapel Royal,
who died 9 Apl. 1681, by his first wife, Mary Cheston, to whom he was married, at St. Margaret's,
Westminster, 8 Feb. 1647-8. He was himself sworn a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal 25 Apl.
1676, and, according to the Cheque Book, died 5 Apl. 1692. A creditor administered to his
estate 12 July 1692, his cousin Anne Roffey, as next of kin, having renounced. See his wife's
burial 16 Jan. 1690-1.
(This entry is chronologically misplaced in Collectanea, and the date erroneously given as
25 Apl.) The Funeral Book, quoting her coffin-plate exposed in 1713, says that she was second
dau. of the Hon. James Herbert, Esq., and grand-daughter to the most noble Thomas, Marquis
of Carmarthen, and died 13 Apl. 1692, in her eleventh year. Her parents were James Herbert,
Esq. (son of James Herbert of co. Bucks, Esq.), and Lady Catherine Osborne, dau. of Thomas,
first Duke of Leeds, who were married, at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 1 July 1674. She
was born 27 Oct. 1681, and baptized 24 Jan. following, at St. Andrew's, Holborn.
5 Third son and seventh child of Prince George of Denmark (see his burial 13 Nov. 1708),
by the Princess, afterwards Queen Anne (see her burial 24 Aug. 1714). Luttrell, in his Diary
(ii. 424), says that he was born at Sion House the day before, and died an hour after his
baptism.
• According to the lists in the Chapter Book. Warren Hill had the reversion of an almsman's
place 29 Jan. 1685-6, and was awaiting his turn 5 June 1688. See a burial, in about the same
locality, 27 Apl. 1685.
7 His will, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Gent., dated 2 May 1692, was proved the 6th
of the same month, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by his friend and residuary legatce,
Robert Styles, of St. Margaret's, Westminster. He bequeathed £12 per annum to his mother, Mary
Draper, widow, then dwelling at Newmarket, co. Cambridge, but mentioned no other relations.
The unofficial register says that he was buried at the upper end of the West Cloister.
8 (Collectanea erroneously gives the date as 16 Sep.) Luttrell, in his Diary (ii. 602),
mentions his death, and describes him as the "king's eldest serjeant at arms, and who used to
attend the house of lords." See the burials, of his wife 17 May 1676, his son 20 Aug. 1675, and his
daughters, 14 Oct. 1674 and 8 Nov. 1680; also the marriage of his dau. 26 Oct. 1670. His will,
dated 25 Oct. 1692, was proved 7 Nov. following, by his son-in-law William Lownds, Esq. He
made his apparently only son, Rev. Robert Harsnett, D.D., his residuary legatee.

Harbottle Grimston, second Bart., who died 5 June 1655, in his father's lifetime, and without
issue; secondly, John Seymour, fourth Duke of Somerset, who died in 1675, and was buried in
Salisbury Cathedral; and thirdly, Henry, second Lord Coleraine, from whom, however, she is
said to have lived apart during the last years of her life. The unofficial register says that she
was buried near the monument of Lord Norris, which is in the Chapel of St. Andrew.
¹ See the burial, probably of his brother, 1 May 1691, and note thereto.
2 Lady Francis Rich, youngest dau. of Robert, second Earl of Warwick, by his first wife,
Frances, dau. of Sir William Hatton alias Newport, Kt., and widow of Nicholas, second Earl of
Scarsdale (see his burial 4 Feb. 1680-1). The unofficial register says that she was buried in the
"Hunsdon Vault," i. c. in the Chapel of St. John the Baptist.
•
- 3 Third son of Francis, second Baron Newport, and created Earl of Bradford 11 May 1694,
by Lady Diana Russell, dau. of Francis, fourth Earl of Bedford, who were married in 1642. He
died unmarried. The unofficial register says that he was buried "by ye Ld Russell's monument,
and neere she yt prickt her finger." This refers to the monuments of Lord John Russell and his
dau. Elizabeth, in the Chapel of St. Edmund, and shews the belief of the writer in a tradition,
now exploded, that the latter lost her life in the manner indicated.
4 Lady Catherine Leke, second dau. of Francis, first Earl of Scarsdale, by Anne, dau. of
Sir Edward Cary, of Aldenham and Berkhampstead, Herts, Kt., and wife of Cuthbert Morley, of
Normanby, co. York, Esq. See her brother's burial 4 Feb. 1680-1. She was buried near him,
in the Chapel of St. John the Baptist.
5 (In the unofficial register only.) See the burial, probably of his brother, 1 May 1691, and
note thereto.
6 The unofficial register says "Bossingam." See. however, a burial 16 May 1617.
7 The unofficial register gives the prefix "Mr."
8 The unofficial register calls him "Capt. Richard Barbar," and says that he was buried "at
the head of Sir Lumley Robinson." His will, as Richard Barber, of the city of Westminster,
Gent., dated 28 July 1689, was proved 24 Mch. 1692-3, by his cousins Mr. James Tye and Mary
his wife, whom he made residuary legatees. He left considerable legacies to his sister Sarah,
then wife of Mr. Lewis Micho, and his cousins Mr. Thomas Newton and his wife Cassandra,
Mrs. Jane Duncombe, and Mrs. Anne and Mrs. Catherine Cornwallis. It is evident that he was
a brother of, or nearly related to, Anne Barber, the wife of Frederick Cornwallis, Esq., second
son of Frederick, first Lord Cornwallis, as the last three ladies named were her daughters.
9 Fifth daughter and eighth child of Prince George of Denmark (see his burial 13 Nov. 1708),
by the Princess, afterwards Queen Anne (see her burial 24 Aug. 1714). The birth took place at
Berkeley House the day before. The unofficial register says that the burial was in the royal
vault.
10 Third and youngest son of Sir Edward Mansell, Kt., and third Bart. of Margam, co.
Glamorgan, by Martha, dau. of Edward Carne, of Wenny, in the same county, Esq. He died
unmarried. See his brother's burial 22 June 1681, and the marriage of another brother 18 May
1686.

born 21 Apl. 1664, and died unmarried. See her sister's burial 2 Dec. 1724. The unofficial
register says that she was buried "neare Sr Ed: Spragg's Head," i. e. in the North aisle.
2 The unofficial register says that she was buried "under Mr. Richard Whittle's stone," i. e.
in the East Cloister (see his burial 15 Jan. 1688-9). She was probably dau. of Thomas Frewen,
to whom, in his will, Mr. Whittle bequeathed all his "physic-books" and "a new milled serge
suit," and who was apparently in his service.
3 Son of Charles, third Lord Cornwallis (see his first marriage 27 Dec. 1673, and note
thereto), by his second wife, the Lady Anne Scott, Duchess of Monmouth and Buccleuch, widow
of the unfortunate James, Duke of Monmouth, to whom he was married, at St. Martin in the
Fields, Midx., 6 May 1688, and who died 6 Feb. 1731-2. This child was born 23 Sep., and
baptized 6 Oct. 1692, at St. Martin in the Fields. The unofficial register says that he was
buried in "Monmouth's Vault." See his sister's burial 25 July 1690.
4 Son of John Blow, the celebrated Doctor of Music (see his burial 8 Oct. 1708), by his
wife Elizabeth (see her burial 31 Oct. 1683). According to the inscription on his gravestone,
he died 2 June, aged fifteen years.
5 (In the unofficial register only.)
Eldest child of Charles Battely, Esq., by Elizabeth,
dau. of John Needham, Esq. (see her baptism 31 Mch. 1668, and note thereto).
6 His will, as of Westminster, Gent., dated 3 July 1693, was proved the 20th of the same
month, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by his cousin, Mrs. Frances Frost (see her burial,
as Frances Goodall, 20 Feb. 1705-6), whom he made his residuary legatce. He left legacies to his
brother Ambrose Searle and his children, and to his uncle Anthony Blagrave, of the city of
Norwich, Gent., and his children, but named no other relations. He was evidently a nephew of
Mr. Thomas Blagrave (see his burial 24 Nov. 1688), and was named in his will. According to
the inscription on his gravestone, he died 7 July, in his thirty-first year. In some of the printed
copies of the inscription it is said that he died in his twenty-first year, but this seems impossible,
as he proved the will of his aunt Margaret Blagrave (see her burial 12 Oct. 1689), which he was
not likely to have done at the age of seventeen.
7 Fourth and youngest son of John Le Nevc, of Cavendish, co. Suffolk, and of St. Martin in
the Fields, Midx., who died in 1654, by his wife Catherine (see her burial, as Mrs. Catherine
Hope, 29 July 1682). He was born 10 Jan. 1649-50, and was twice married. See the burial of
his first wife 15 May 1677, and of his second 17 Dec. 1687. By the latter he was father of
John Le Neve, the author of Fasti Ecclesiæ Anglicana. See also his brother's burial 29 Aug.
1673. He died 26 July, and was buried in the North aisle, behind the organ.
He was appointed to the first vacant "Almsroom," by the King, in Aug. 1660 (Signet
Book, Public Record Office), and his name occurs in the list of the then existing almsmen, in the
Chapter Book, dated 5 June 1688. See his son's baptism 16 Mch. 1666-7.
9 His father, Richard Bullock, administered to his estate 28 Nov. 1693, when he was de-
scribed as of the city of Westminster, bachelor.

1 Dau. and heir of George Talbot, of Ridge, co. Salop, Esq., and wife of Sir Clement Clerke,
first Bart. of Launde Abbey (see his burial 10 Dec. following). In the Baronetages, except in
Wotton's edition in 1727, she is always called "Catharine." The unofficial register calls her
“Lady Sarah Clerk," and says that she was buried in the North Cloister. The Funeral Book
also gives her the same name.
2 See his baptism 13 May 1693, his mother's burial 16 July 1720, and his father's 29 Mch.

3 Rightly Clerke. Son of Sir George Clerke, of Watford. co. Northampton, Kt., by Barbara,
dau. of Robert Palmer, of Hill, co. Beds, Esq. He was appointed Gentleman of the Privy
Chamber to K. Charles II. in 1661, and was created a Baronet 18 June in that year, as of Launde
Abbey, co. Leicester. See his wife's burial 13 Nov. preceding, and that of his great-grandson
25 Nov. 1732.
4 The surname is the same in the unofficial register, but it may be questioned if it should
not be Elers, or, as the name appears to have been written at this time, "Ellers." It seems
probable that she was a dau. of Peter Elers, by his first wife Anne Price, and sister of Anne
Elers (see her burial 26 Oct. 1717, and note thereto), and of Peter Elers, Esq. (see his burial
20 Mch. 1753), both of whom were buried in the same vicinity.
5 Mary, dau. of Edward Stafford (only son of Edward, fourth Baron Stafford of the
creation of 1547, but who died in his father's lifetime). by Anne, dau. of James Wilford, of
Newnham Hall, co. Essex, Esq., and sister and heir of Henry, fifth Baron Stafford. She
married (Mar. Lic. Bp. Lond. 11 Oct. 1637), at the age of eighteen. Sir William Howard. K.B.,
then aged twenty-two, third but second surviving son of Thomas, Earl of Arundel and Surrey.
They were created, 12 Sep. 1640, Baron and Baroness of Stafford, and 11 Nov. following he was
elevated in the peerage as Viscount of Stafford. He was attainted in 1678, when all his honours
were forfeited, and was beheaded 29 Dec. 1680. She was created, 5 Oct. 1688, Countess of
Stafford for life, her eldest son (see his burial 12 May 1719) being the same day created Earl of
Stafford. According to her monument, she died 13 Jan.. in her seventy-fourth year. She was
buried in the Chapel of St. Edmund. (The day of her burial is also omitted in the unofficial
register, but the entry there follows, instead of preceding, that of the Earl of Macclesfield.)
6 (Collectanea erroneously says 10 Jan.) Charles Gerard, son and heir of Sir Charles Gerard,
of Halsall, co. Lancaster, Kt., by Penelope, sister and heir of Sir Edward Fitton, of Gosworth,
co. Chester, Kt. He was created, 8 Oct. 1645, Lord Gerard. of Brandon, and, 21 July 1679,
Earl of Macclesfield. He died, according to Luttrell's Diary, 9 Jan., and the unofficial register
says that he was buried in the "Hunsdon Vault," i. e., in the Chapel of St. John the Baptist.
See the burials, of his sister 18 Oct. 1662, his dau. 19 Mch. 1699-1700, and his son 14 Nov.

7 Second son of George Villiers, fourth Viscount Grandison, by Lady Mary Leigh, second
dau. and coheir of Francis, first Earl of Chichester. He was Lieut. of the Band of Gentlemen
Pensioners, and was appointed, 23 Feb. 1684-5, one of the four Tellers of the Exchequer (Segar's
MS. Baronage, College of Arms, iii., 1148). He resided at Parson's Green, Fulham, Midx., and
was the "Frank Villiers," or "Villain Frank," of the State Poems. He died 1 Feb.,
unmarried. In his will, dated 29 Jan. 1693-4, he bequeathed £714 6s. to his sister Elizabeth
Villiers, and left the rest of his estate to be disposed of among his relations by his brother
Charles Villiers, Esq., and his cousin Elizabeth Villiers, whom he appointed executors. The
latter, as the Countess of Orkney, proved the will, but not until 23 Oct. 1703.

3 His paternity has long been a matter of doubt, he having been called nephew, and even
son, of Bishop Duppa (see his burial 24 Apl. 1662). The former he possibly was, but the latter
he certainly was not. He appears to have been the only son of John Duppa, of Eardisley, co.
Hereford, by his wife Dorothy, and was born (as he stated in his will) 2 Apl. 1619. He was
created D.C.L. at Oxford, 20 Dec. 1670. on the occasion of the reception of the Prince of
Orange, being evidently one of his retinue, and Anthony Wood then described him (MS. E. 7, Bod.
Lib.) as belonging to the Court of K. Chas. II., and " ncpos Briani nuper Winton Episcopi."
He had served K. Chas. II, when Prince of Wales, and subsequently was made Gentleman Usher
of the Black Rod (which post he appears to have held at his death), being knighted 6 May 1683.
By his wife Joan (buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 1 July 1667), dau. of William Wheeler,
of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., goldsmith, he had two sons and seven daughters, all baptized
at Eardisley, except the only surviving son, Thomas, second of that name, who was baptized at
St. Margaret's, Westminster, 1 Nov. 1663, and who died, without issue, 17 July 1704. Sir
Thomas died 25 Apl., and was buried in the North aisle of the Choir.
4 The unofficial register says: "Will Godolphin." William, son of Charles Godolphin, Esq.,
M.P. for Helston, etc. (see his burial 28 July 1720), by his wife Elizabeth (sce her burial 16 Aug.
1726). He was born 25 Mch., and baptized at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 8 Apl. 1694,
thus living only about seven weeks. See his sister's burial 12 Dec. 1690.
5 Rightly Ker. On her monument she is described as Mrs. Christian Ker, wife of William
Ker, of Chatto, in Teviotdale, and dau. of Sir William Scott, of Harden, Bart., and is said to
have died 16 May, in her forty-first year. Her mother appears to have been Christian, sixth aud
youngest dau. of Robert, sixth Lord Boyd.
6 (The word "for" is inexplicable. The unofficial register simply says
"The Lady
Elland.") Esther, dau. of Charles de la Tour, Marquis de Gouvernet, in France, a distinguished
Protestant, who died before the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, by Esther, dau. of Bartholomew
Hervart (see her burial 10 July 1722). She was born in France in 1666, and married, about
April 1684, Henry Savile, commonly called Lord Eland, eldest son of George, first Marquis of
Halifax (see his burial 11 Apl. 1695), who died without issue, in his father's lifetime, in 1688,
she proving his will 8 June in that year. She had been naturalized in England 26 Feb. pre-
ceding. Her own will, which contains nothing of interest, was dated 5 Jan. 1688-9, but was
not proved, by her mother, until 13 Dec. 1709. See her grandmother's burial 7 Dec. 1697.
7 Anthony Cary, son of Henry, fourth Viscount Falkland, by Rachel, dau. of Anthony
Hungerford, of Blackbourton, co. Oxford, and of Farley Castle, co. Somerset. He was born at
Farley Castle 15 Feb. 1656, and succeeded, as fifth Viscount Falkland, 9 Apl. 1663. He was a
Paymaster of the Navy in the reign of K. James II., and of the Privy Council to K. William
III. He married Rebecca, dau. of Sir Rowland Lytton, of Knebworth, Herts, Kt., but left no
surviving issue. He died, of the small-pox, 24 Feb.

her niece Anne, wife of Henry Gregory, and their son Richard; her niece Catherine Jenkins and
her son John; her cousin Mr. William Pope and his wife; her cousin Peregrine Pope (brother of
said William Pope) and his wife and two children; her cousin John Griffith and his wife
Catharine (sister of said William Pope); and her cousin Mr. Sadler. She also left legacies to
the poor of Long Compton, co. Warwick (the living of which she appears to have possessed at
the time of her second marriage), and of Gul-ton-at-Frith and Lydden, near Dover, co.
Kent.

2 Rightly Dame Margery Fairborne. It is said that her maiden name was Devereux, and
that she first married a Mr. Mansell, who must have died before 1666. She married. secondly,
Sir Palmes Fairborne. Kt., Governor of Tangier, where he was slain 24 Oct. 1680. He has an
honorary monument in the Abbey. She married, thirdly. at St. Marylebone. Midx., 1 Apl. 1683,

and coheir of Sir William Uvedale, of Wickham. Hants. Kt. She died unmarried. Luttrell, in

26 Aug. 1685, and her brother's 24 July 1701.
5 Dorothy, second dau. of Sir Peter Osborne, of Chicksands. co. Beds, Kt., by Dorothy, dau.
of Sir John Danvers, Kt. She married, 31 Jan. 1654-5 (after publication at St. Giles in the
Fields, Midx., in the preceding December) William Temple, Esq., afterwards Sir William Temple,
Bart., Master of the Rolls in Ireland. etc. (see his burial 1 Feb. 1698-9). According to her monu-
ment, she died in her sixty-sixth year. See her daughter's burial 27 Mch. 1679.
(No date of the burial is given in the Abbey Register; but. in a herald painter's work-book
in the College of Arms (5 O., p. 106), an entry concerning her funeral says that she was buried
7 Feb.) As the next four cutries are chronologically misplaced in the Register. it is probable that
the officials were so occupied with the preparations for the burial of Queen Mary (see the next
entry) that they neglected them in due course, and recorded them subsequently together, without
regard to their proper order. It has been thought best to place them here as the evidence
obtained shews that they should stand.)
6 Eldest dau. and second child of K. James II., by his first wife, Lady Anne Hyde, eldest
dau. of Edward, first Earl of Clarendon (see her burial 5 Apl. 1671). She was born at St.
James's Palace 30 Apl. 1662, and baptized 9 May following. She was married at St. James's
4 Nov. 1677, to William-Henry. Prince of Orange, afterwards King William III. (see his burial
12 Apl. 1702). They began to reign 13 Feb. 1688-9, and were crowned together 11 Apl. following,
but had no issue. She died of the small-pox, at Kensington. 28 Dec. 1694.
(This entry is misplaced in the Abbey Register, and stands under the year 1695, immediately
following that of Dr. Busby. See the end of the preceding note.)

1664. He was Rector of Chartham and Vicar of Minster, co. Kent, and Chaplain to Archbishop
Sancroft. Of his voluminous works his Anglia Sucra is best remembered. His early death was
regarded as a great loss to literature. He died 5 Mch., a victim to his cxcessive intellectual
labours.
¹ Mary, dau. of William Knightley, of Kingston-on-Thames, co. Surrey, Esq., by Susan, dau.
of John Price, of the same place, Gent. She was baptized at Kingston 13 Apl. 1630. She
married, first, as early as 1654, Aquila Wyke, of the city of Westminster, Gent., who appears to
have succceded his father, of the same name, as keeper of the Gate-House prison there, and
had by him two sons and one daughter. He was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 9 Apl.
1659. She remarried, in 1660, Sir Edward Broughton, of Marchwiel, co. Denbigh (see his burial
26 June 1665, and note thereto), to whom she was second wife. The circumstances of their
marriage appear to have been peculiar and extraordinary. Pennant, in his Tours in Wales
(edit. 1810, i. 413), mentioning Marchwiel as long in possession of the Broughton family, says:
"Just before the Restoration, Edward Broughton, Esq., happened to be confined in the Gate-
House, for his loyalty. He fell in love with the daughter of the keeper, one Wike, and bound
himself to her by a bond of the most uncommon imprecations. He married her, and, dying
without issue, bequeathed his estates to his wife's brother, etc." A copy of the "Imprecation of
Edward Broughton, Esq." is given by Pennant, in the same work, at page 307 in Vol. iii. It is
too long to quote, but is well worth consulting as a marvellous curiosity of literature. It was
dated 12 Apl. 1660, and the writer bound himself not only to abstain from all the common vices
of the period, but, in substance, to allow his intended wife to have her own way in all matters,
great and small, and the terrible penalties he invoked upon himself, in case he should violate his
bond, remind one of the famous curse in one of "Tom Ingoldsby's" poems, or, rather, of the
original by which that was inspired. There is probably a basis of truth in Pennant's statement;
but it was the widow, and not the daughter, of the keeper of the Gate-House, whom Sir Edward
Broughton married. He did not bequeath his estates to his wife's brother, but she left them to
his eldest of three sons by her, who succeeded nominally as second Bart., and died without issue in
1738, and they then reverted, under her will, to Aquila Wyke, her second son by her first husband.
(No date of her burial is given in the Abbey Register; but, in a herald painter's work-
book in the College of Arms (5 O., p. 106), an entry concerning her funeral says that she was
buried 19 Mch. In the Register the entry follows that of Lady Temple, and precedes that of
Queen Mary. See the end of Note 5 on page 235.)
2 Dr. Richard Busby, the well-known Head-Master of Westminster School. He was second
son of Richard Busby, of Westminster, Gent., and is said on his monument to have been born
at Lutton (otherwise Sulton St. Nicholas), co. Lincoln, 22 Sep. 1606. He was educated at
Westminster School, and is said to have been elected to Oxford in 1624, but his name in the
matriculation register, as from Christ Church, is under the date of 10 Feb. 1625-6, and his agc
was then given as eighteen. He was B.A. 21 Oct. 1628, and M.A. 18 June 1631. He is said to
have been appointed provisionally to the Head-Mastership in 1638, but his patent was not
ordered until 25 Jan. 1640-1, when he was to have "the office and roome of Schoolmaster, with his
house and lodgings thereunto belonging," and a fee of £20 a year (Chapter Book). He had the
rectory of Cudworth, co. Somerset, and became Prebendary of Wells 1 July 1639, but was
deprived of these preferments during the civil war, though allowed to retain his position in
Westminster School. He was installed Prebendary of Westminster 5 July 1660, Treasurer of
Wells 11 Aug. following, and was created D.D., at Oxford, 19 Oct. in the same year. He died
5 Apl., according to his monument and other testimony of the period, and it may therefore be
doubted if the date of his burial is correctly given in the text. The Marquis of Halifax, who
died the same day, was not buried until the 11th. (See the end of Note 5 on page 235.)
3 Sir George Savile, fourth Bart. of Thornhill, co. York, eldest son of Sir William Savile,
third Bart., by Anne, dau. of Thomas, Lord Coventry (Lord Keeper). He was born 11 Nov. 1633,
and, on account of his own and his father's eminent services during the civil war, he was
created, 13 Jan. 1667-8, Baron Savile, of Eland, co. York, and Viscount Halifax; Earl of Halifax

'Her will, as "Susanna Jenins," of Bishop's Hatfield, co. Herts, widow, relict of John
Jenins (or Jennings), late of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Esq., deceased, dated 14 Nov. 1694,
was proved 30 Oct. 1695, by her nephew Rev. Thomas Searancke, of Ashley, co. Cambridge,
Clerk, whom she made her residuary legatee. She directed to be buried near her said husband
in the Cloisters of Westminster Abbey (see his burial 6 Mch. 1690-1). She left legacies to her
son Francis Dashwood, of Bishopsgate. London, Esq., and her grandchildren Mary and Susanna
Dashwood; her sisters, Anne, wife of Edward Ivery, and Mary, wife of Nicholas Addison, both
of Hatfield; her sister Joyce, wife of John Raymond, of St. Andrew's, Holborn; and her nephews
Thomas Burnham and Henry Addison, both of St. Andrew's, Holborn.
2 His will, as Robert Nott, of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., Esq., dated 21 Feb. 1692-3,
was proved 4 June 1695, by the relict Anne (see her burial 20 June 1700), to whom he left all his
estate, except £50 to his dau. Mary, wife of Thomas Wise. Luttrell, in his Diary (iii. 476),
under the date of 25 May, mentions his death, and says that he was deputy to Lord Montagu,
Master of the Wardrobe. See the burials of (probably) his children, 6 Mch. 1669-70 and
30 Nov. 1685.
3 He was knighted by K. Charles II., at Whitehall, 14 June 1660, as of Ireland. In 1667 he
was appointed Gentleman of the Privy Chamber, and subsequently Gentleman Usher of the same,
which post he held until his death. His death is noticed in the Post-Boy, 1 Aug. 1695, as having
occurred on Monday, 29 July, and in Luttrell's Diary (iii. 506) as on Tuesday afternoon,
30 July, and both authorities state that his age was nearly one hundred years. He is mentioned
in the State Poems (i. 132, “Cullen with his Flock of Misses") as The silly knight that rhimes
to mutton." Luttrell also states, under date of 1 Aug. 1695, that Lord Lucas got £400 a year by
his death. He married Anne, dau. of Sir John Byron, Kt., and widow of Sir Thomas Lucas, Kt.
(illegitimate brother of John, first Lord Lucas, of Shenfield. but who was included in his baronial
patent), who died about 1650, she then being about thirty-eight years of age. She was living as
late as 1670, but died before him. Letters of administration to his estate were granted, 16 Aug.
1695, to Ignatius Berford, as next of kin ; but a will, dated 22 Oct. 1670, in which he left all his
estate to his wife Anne, and his son-in-law Mr. Robert Lucas, was proved 25 May 1696, by Robert,
Lord Lucas, Baron of Shenfield, as surviving universal legatee. In the record of administration
he is called "Kt. and Bart.," and he so styled himself in his will, but no evidence has been
discovered that he was ever created a baronet.
✦ Elizabeth, dau. of Francis, fifth Lord Willoughby of Parham, by Lady Elizabeth Cecil,
dau. and coheir of Edward, Viscount Wimbledon. She was the first wife of Richard, third
Viscount and created Earl of Ranelagh (sce his burial 10 Jan. 1711-12). Luttrell's Diary, under
date of 1 Aug., says: "This morning dyed the countesse of Ranelagh at Chelsey Colledge, to
the great regrett of the poor." See the burials, of her son 29 Mch. 1678, and of her daughters,
23 Apl. 1740 and 22 Apl. 1758.
5 Clement Saunders, Esq., son of Sir William Saunders, of East Haddon and Cottesbrook, co.
Northampton. He was Carver in Ordinary to Kings Charles II., James II., and William III.,
and died 10 Aug., aged eighty-four. In his will be directed these facts to be stated on his monu-
ment, and expressed great anxiety to be buried in the Abbey, leaving several bequests solely on
that condition. The will was proved, 22 Aug. 1695, by his cousin William Whaley, of Norton,
co. Leicester, Esq. He left bequests to his brother William Saunders, and his cousins Mr.
Robert Dormer, of Lincoln's Inn, Mr. Robert Fisher, and Mrs. Pinckney. The Post-Boy, of
13 Aug. 1695, says that he died at his lodgings in Suffolk Street, and that he was "well known
and beloved by many of the nobility and gentry."

His will, dated 20 Aug. 1695, was proved on the 28th of the same month, by his kinsman
Thomas Robinson, whom he also called son of his aunt Margaret Robinson. He described him-
self as a citizen and haberdasher of London, and left other legacies to his aunt Cope; his uncle
Ignatius Robinson; his cousin Mr. Edward Morgau; his kinsman Mr. Henry Partridge; and his
kinswomen, Mrs. Joane Beaumont, Mrs. Anne Oliver, Mrs. Frances Jones, and Mrs. Anne
Crompton. To his apprentice, Francis Wright, he bequeathed the lease of his dwelling-house

the Chapel Royal (sce his burial 13 Aug. 1664), by his wife Elizabeth, who was buried at

Westminster, about 1658, and was probably baptized in the Abbey (as was his sister four years
later), though no record of it occurs in the Register, which is defective at that period. He
became Organist of the Abbey, on the resignation of Dr. John Blow in 1680, and of the Chapel
Royal 14 July 1682. He died, from the cffects of a cold, 21 Nov., and was buried in the North
aisle. His will, dated on the day of his death, merely left all his estate to his wife Frances, who
proved it 7 Dec. following (see her burial 14 Feb. 1705-6). See the baptisms of his children,

2 Capt. George Slaughter, born in Gloucestershire, and had been a cornet to the first Duke

Ireland, Gent. He bequeathed his estate in Shanbally to his nephew George-Slaughter Batty,
son of his nephew Thomas Batty, Gent., on condition that he used the surname of Slaughter
only; and other considerable legacies to other children of said Thomas Batty (who had
apparently married his niece), but the dau. Elizabeth Batty was to have only five shillings.
instead of £400, if she married any Irish papist." To his sister Amy (afterwards Amy
Lawrence) he left an annuity of £20 for life, and other legacies to the son of his niece Thawyts,
his cousin Matthews, and his nephew John Hanbury and his wife. The will was proved, 2 Mch.

Elector Palatine, by his second (or "left-hand ") wife Mary-Louisa. She was born 12 Nov.
1659, and married, 4 Jan. 1682-3, Meinhardt, third Duke of Schomberg (see his burial 4 Aug.
1719). She died, at Kensington, 28 Junc. See the burial of her dau. 22 June 1710, and of her
son 14 Oct. 1713. (The correction of her Christian name as above is warranted by entries in the
parish register of St. James, Westminster, and in the registers of the old French Chapel in
Swallow Street, in which, as godmother on two different occasions, her names and titles are
fully set forth.)

her only dau. Mary-Charlotte, wife of Sir William Gage, second Bart., and is said to have died
there; but, as there seems no possible reason why her remains should have been brought to the
Abbey from that distance, it is probable that she died in London or Westminster. Her husbaud
had been Comptroller of the Household to Q. Henrietta-Maria, and it is said that she had been
one of the Ladies of her Privy Chamber. Her sister, Mlle. de la Garde, was one of the Maids of
Honour to Q. Catherine, and figures in Grammont's Memoirs (see note to a marriage 13 Nov.
1677).

4 His will, as of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., Gent., dated 21 June 1683, was proved
5 Feb. 1696-7, by the relict Frances (see her burial, as Frances Goodall, 20 Feb. 1705-6). To
his son William Frost he left only one shilling, having already purchased for him an office in
the Court of Chancery. He directed the payment of £200 which he owed to his friend and uncle
Mr. Thomas Blagrave (see his burial 24 Nov. 1688). He also bequeathed to his wife Frances his
lease of "Pall Mall Field," and his estate in the tavern in King Street, Westminster, called the
"Beaufort Head." The date of burial is deficient in the official Register, but is supplied by the
unofficial one, and the inscription on his gravestone stated that he died 22 Dec. In one of the
early printed volumes his age is given as eighty years, but this is doubtful.
He appears, from the best accounts, to have been a native of Bacharach, in the Lower
Palatinate in Germany, and to have been educated at the University of Wittenberg, where he
had the degree corresponding to that of our Master of Arts. His father seems to have held the
respectable position of recorder, or secretary, of his native town, and he was probably nurtured
in Protestantism. He is said to have come to England in 1661, and probably made his way at
once to Oxford, where he was incorporated M.A., as of Queen's College, 15 Mch. 1663-4. For
some little time he was one of the Chaplains of that College, and also curate of All Saints,
Oxford. He then became Chaplain to Christopher, Duke of Albemarle, and tutor to his son, and
obtained, through the Duke, the rectory of Dolton, co. Devon. He also became a Prebendary of
Exeter, 13 June 1670. Shortly after, resigning Dolton, he became minister of St. Mary-le-Strand,
Westminster, being licensed 29 July 1671, and a few months later was married. In 1681 he had
the degree of S. T. P. at Cambridge, and subsequently became Chaplain in Ordinary to K. William
and Q. Mary. He was installed Prebendary of Westminster 1 July 1693, and of Wells 28 Sep.

1694. His will, dated 18 June 1695, was proved by his relict Jane 21 May 1697, but contains no-
thing of special interest. He died, of the stone, 31 Jan., in his fifty-sixth year. See the burials,
of his wife 21 Apl. 1703, of his dau. 8 Jan. 1734-5, and of his son 27 Apl. 1746. Besides these
children, he had four sons who died young. His eldest son, Philip Horneck, was LL.B. of
Cambridge in 1698, and the next year Chaplain to Lord Guildford. He wrote at least one play,
called the "High German Doctor," and in January 1715-16 was appointed Solicitor to the
Treasury. He died, still holding that office, 13 Oct. 1728. Dr. Horneck was a voluminous
theological writer, and some of his works were greatly praised by the best Biblical critics, while
a few have been reprinted in more modern times.
The inscription on his gravestone stated that he had been mason to the Abbey for twenty-
three years, and that he died 18 Feb., in his fifty-fourth year. He was very probably a son of
Edward Tufnell and Catharine Moorecocke, both described as of Christ Church, London, who
were married at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 8 Oct. 1638. See the burial of his wife, as
Dorothy Noble, 20 Oct. 1720. The baptisms of ten of his children occur in the parish registers
of St. Margaret's, Westminster. See the burials of his children, 14 Dec. 1707, 11 Sep. 1719,
3 Apl. 1723, and 24 Dec. 1733, and his son's marriage 27 Oct. 1697.
2 One of this name matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church, 27 June 1690, as son of
John Flower, of Chippenham, co. Wilts, and then aged seventeen years. He does not appear to
have taken any degree.
3 The inscription on her monument stated that she was born in the county of Anglesey, and
served the royal family in England, France, and Holland, above fifty years, being at her death
eldest Bedchamber-woman to the Princess Anne of Denmark; that she had two uncles, viz.,
Richard Griffith, who was Harbinger to K. James I., and Maurice Griffith, who was Chirurgeon
to Prince Charles; and that she died 24 Apl., aged seventy-five. Her maiden name, therefore,
appears to have been Griffith. Her will, dated 2 May 1693, was proved 7 May 1697, in the
Court of the Dean and Chapter, by her niece Elizabeth Atkinson, widow (see her burial 15 Mch.
1725-6), to whom she bequeathed the most of her possessions. She left to her brother's widow
£10, and to his son and dau. each £50, and to her niece Mrs. Lawson £10, but named no other
relations.
Sce, probably, her father's burial 14 Feb. 1698-9.
5 Eldest son of William, Marquis of Hartington, afterwards second Duke of Devonshire, by
Rachel, dau. of the unfortunate Lord William Russell. He died an infant, and another son of
the same name was born the next year, who succeeded as third Duke of Devonshire.
6 Her monument describes her as dau. of Henry, Lord Folliott, and states that she died
5 Sep., in her eleventh year. Henry, third Lord Folliott, who succeeded to the title this year,
died in 1716, without surviving issue, and the title became extinct.

1690-1, was proved 12 Nov. 1697, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by the relict Ursula,
who is alone named in it. He died 2 Nov.
Henry Ewbank was one of the Gentlemen of the Privy Chamber to K. Charles II. in 1671,
and to King William in 1690.
2 Her maiden name was Vimart or Vimar, and she was the widow of Bartholomew Hervart,
a native of Augsburg. He and his brother were bankers in Paris, and, at an important crisis,
placed their large fortune at the disposal of King Louis XIII., which enabled him to resist suc-
cessfully the invasion of Alsace. In return he bestowed upon them sundry estates, which were,
however, confiscated at the revocation of the Edict of Nantes. He was also appointed, by
Mazarin, Comptroller-General of the Finances, and held that post at his death in 1676. She
probably came to England with her daughter, the Marchioness de Gouvernet (see her burial
10 July 1722), who administered to her estate 23 Sep. 1698, when she was described as Hester
Vimar alias Hervart, late of St. James, Westminster, widow. Her son, Philibert Hervart, also a
refugee in England, was ambassador at Geneva during the reign of K. William, and died, at
Southampton, 30 Apl. 1721. See the burial of her grand-daughter, Lady Eland, 26 May 1694.

after paying her debts and funeral expenses, to her brother's children, and an endorsement on

Wilts, a Knight Banneret, a dramatic writer of some note, and of the Privy Council. He died
3 Sep., and his will, dated 26 May 1697, was proved 7 Sep. 1698, by his relict Dame Annabella,
to whom he left all his estate. She was his fourth wife, dau. of John Dyve, Esq., Clerk of the

dated 9 Aug. 1698, was proved 3 Dec. following. by his mother Dame Susanna Lort. He be-
queathed his estates to his only sister (see her burial 6 Oct. 1714), and they are now in pos-
session of her descendant, Earl Cawdor.
5 His monument states that he was Commander of H.M.'s ship the "Colchester," and
died 3 Oct., aged thirty-three. He obtained his first commission as Captain 10 June 1692. when
he was appointed to the "Chester," and passed most of his time on the West India station. He
is usually said to have died there, but, from the dates of his death and burial, and his will, this
is impossible. His will was dated the day before his death, and proved the day before his burial,
by his friend Archibald Hutchinson, of the Middle Temple, Esq. He provided for the mainte-
nance of his illegitimate son William Julius, of the island of St. Christopher, and his illegitimate
dau. Jemima Julius, of the island of Nevis, until they should be eighteen years of age, when
each was to have £200, and gave £500 to Elizabeth Hibbals, his half-sister. The residue of
his estate he left to his own sister Elizabeth, wife of Thomas Westcott, of the island of St.
Christopher.
6 The inscription on her monument describes her as "Mrs. Anne Wemyss, daughter of
Dr. Lodowick Wemyss (sometime Prebendary of this Cathedral) and of Mrs. Jane Bargrave his
wife," and states that she died 19 Dec., in her sixty-seventh year.-Le Neve's Fasti (Hardy's
edit. iii. 353), in the list of Prebendaries of Westminster, says that "Louis Way, sometimes
written Lodowick Weems or Wemys, S. T. B.," was installed 5 Feb. 1630-1.—Anthony Wood
says that “Lodowick Wemmys or Weems, D.D. of Cambridge, and Prebendary of Westminster,"
was incorporated in the same degree at Oxford, 12 Aug. 1645.—On 3 Aug. 1647, he obtained a
marriage license from the Bishop of London for Thomas Bargrave, of Eastrey, co. Kent, Gent.,

to be paid to him by his honoured master and friend Sir Stephen Fox. He left considerable
legacies to Jane and Dorothy Rust, daughters of his eldest sister; his nephews Henry Hewett,
John Bevis, William Masters, and Robert Alden; and his cousin Joane Hoggett. He stated that
he had paid £110 towards an organ and organ case for the church of St. Thomas, in Salisbury,
and desired his executors to see the same completed. The residue of his estate he bequeathed
equally to his sisters Mary Masters and Jane Betston, and appointed them and Dr. Blow joint
executors. The two sisters also proved the will, 13 Jan. 1698-9, and letters of administration
de bonis non were granted, 30 Mch. 1717, to William Masters, son of said Mary Masters, the

and succeeded his father as Master of the Rolls. He was of the Privy Council, a distinguished
statesman and man of letters, and his memory is well preserved in his "Memoirs" and various
writings. He died in his seventieth year, leaving no surviving male issue, and the title became
extinct. See the burials, of his wife 7 Feb. 1694-5, of his dau. 27 Mch. 1679, and of his sister

1 Youngest dau. of Charles, first Earl of Macclesfield (see his burial 18 Jan. 1693-4), by
Jane, dau. of Peter de Civell, a Frenchman, though she was born in England. She married
Digby, fifth Lord Gerard of Bromley, who died 8 Nov. 1684. Their dau. Elizabeth married
James, Duke of Hamilton, who was slain in the noted duel with Charles, Lord Mohun, 15 Nov.
1712. Lady Gerard died 11 Mch. See her brother's burial 14 Nov. 1701.

4 THE GLORIOUS. Eldest son of Erasmus Dryden, of Tichmarsh, co. Northampton, Esq.
(third son of Sir Erasmus Dryden, first Bart.), by Mary, dau. of Rev. Henry Pickering, D.D.,
Rector of Aldwinckle, in the same county, and sister of Sir Henry Pickering, first Bart. of
Whaddon. According to a horoscope in Ashmole MS. 243, p. 209, Bod. Lib., he was born thirty-
three minutes and sixteen seconds after 5 o'clock p.m., 19 Aug. 1631 (the usual date given is
9 Aug.). He married (Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen. 30 Nov. 1663) Lady Elizabeth Howard, dau. of
Thomas, first Earl of Berkshire, who survived him some years, but in a state of lunacy, and their
younger son, Erasmus, succeeded as fifth Bart., but left no issue. Their two elder sons also died
unmarried, and by the end of the year 1710 the poct's line was cxtinct. He died 1 May, and, as
will be seen by the text, his remains found an appropriate burial-place.
5 See the marriage of her parents 27 Oct. 1697, and her father's burial 11 Sep. 1719. She
was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, three days before her burial.
6 In her will, as of St. Martin in the Fields, widow, dated 30 Oct. 1699, she directed to be
buried in the Abbey Cloisters, near her late husband, Robert Nott, Esq. (see his burial 26 May
1695). She bequeathed to her dau. Mary, wife of Mr. Thomas Wise, ten shares in the Bank of
England, with remainder to her children, and all other residue and remainders to her cousin
Elizabeth Murray, whose husband, William Murray. Gent., proved the will 13 July 1700. See
the burials, probably of her children, 6 Mch. 1669-70 and 30 Nov. 1685.
7 According to a list in the Chapter Book, he was an almsman as early as 5 June 1688. See,

¹ Second son and fifth and last surviving child of Prince George of Denmark (see his
burial 13 Nov. 1708), by the Princess, afterwards Queen Anne (see her burial 24 Aug. 1714). He
was born at Hampton Court the 24th, and baptized 27 July 1689. He was called Duke of
Gloucester, and officially recognized by that title, but no patent ever passed the seal, though a
warrant was issued for his creation in 1689. He died, at Windsor Castle, 30 July.
2 Son of Francis Twisden, of the Inner Temple, and of East Malling, co. Kent, Esq. (fifth
son of Sir Thomas Twisden, first Bart. of Bradbourn), by Rebecca, dau. of Philip Lemon, Esq.,
and widow of one of the sons of Sir Matthew Hale, Kt. His parents were married, at St. Benet
Fink, London, 24 Aug. 1677, and his father died 20 Nov. 1721. He was admitted into West-
minster School in 1699.
3 His will, as of St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., Gent., dated 17 Oct. 1700, with a codicil 11
Dec. following, was proved 14 Jan. 1700-1, by his second wife and relict, Catharine (see her
burial 5 Jan. 1713-14), to whom he gave his lands, etc., in Furncaux-Pelham and Brent-Pelham,
Herts, with remainder to his dau. Catharine, evidently his only child by her (see her burial
6 July 1708); but, if his said dau. Catharine should die unmarried, then the poor of Kirkbradden,
including the town of Douglas, in the Isle of Man, were to have £300, to be laid out for them
by the Bishop and Governor of that island, and by Mr. William Thompson, merchant, also of
that island, and his heirs. He also bequeathed to Mr. Robert Fletcher, and Mr. John Fletcher,
sons of his uncle Mr. Thomas Fletcher, deceased, and to the three sons of Mr. John Thompson,
of co. Cavan in Ireland, but formerly of the Isle of Man, each £100, and to the children of his
aunt, Mrs. Jane Moore, each £50, all in case his dau. Catharine should die unmarried; and he
appointed as guardians of his dau. (then only a few months old) his wife and his friend George
Stanlake, of the Inner Temple, Gent. In the codicil he left £10 for mourning to his "good
friend and kinsman, Matthew Pryor, Esq." See the burial of his first wife 12 Nov. 1685, and
the burials of his children by her, 22 Feb. 1678-9 and 7 Aug. 1700, certainly, and probably
(so probable as to be almost certain), 20 Dec. 1678, 12 Apl. 1679, 27 Feb. 1680-1. 11 Sep. 1682,
and 13 Sep. 1688.
4 Probably, from the place of burial, a dau. of, or nearly related to, Roger Cooper (see his
burial 22 Apl. 1703).
5 The Christian name in the Register is wrong, and should be Sarah. In the original
affidavit of her burial in woollen, curiously preserved among the Abbey muniments, dated
22 Jan. 1700-1, she is called "Mrs. Sarath Milmay, of the parish of Crist Church in the
City of London." In her will, dated 2 Jan. 1700-1, she was described as Sarah
Mildmay, widow, relict of Humphrey Mildmay, of Queen-Camel, co. Somerset. Esq.,"
and she directed to be buried in the Abbey Church of St. Peter in Westminster, while
an affidavit to her handwriting states that the will was written on that day, "at her
lodgings in the house of Mr. Dewe, in Warwick Lane," which is in the parish of Christ Church.
There can be, therefore, no doubt as to her identity, or that there was an inadvertent error in
the Abbey Register. She left £100 for her funeral expenses, and £10 to the poor of Plympton
St. Mary, co. Devon, where she was born. She also left legacies to her nieces Mrs. Mary Lamb,
Mrs. Dorothy Davy, Mrs. Judith Joyner and her sister Amy, and Sarah Parker. All her plate
on which the arms of the family of Parker were engraved, and all her books, she bequeathed to
her nephew Thomas Parker and his three daughters. The will was proved, 14 Mch. 1700-1, by

her trustee and executor, Francis Nixon, of Doctors' Commons, Gent. It is evident, there-
fore, that she was the youngest dau. of Edmund Parker, of North Molton, co. Devon,
ancestor of the Earls of Morley, by Amy, youngest dau. of Sir Edward Seymour, first
Bart. of Berry-Pomeroy. She was unmarried at the date of her father's will, in 1642, and
was probably upwards of seventy years of age at her death.
1 Perhaps the child of Ulick Burke, who was created Viscount Galway 2 June 1687, and
was slain at Aughrim 12 July 1691, by Lady Frances Lane, only dau. of George, first Viscount
Lanesborough. Their only dau. is said to have died young.
2 Only son of Lewis Anwill, of Park, co. Merioneth, Esq., by Catharine, dau. of William
Griffith, of Len, who remarried Sir Hugh Owen, second Bart. of Orielton, co. Pembroke.
He married Elizabeth Owen, dau. of his step-father by his first wife. His will, as of Park,
co. Merioneth, Esq., dated 25 July 1699, with codicils 29 Jan. and 1 Feb. 1700-1, was not
proved until 25 June 1705, and then by certain trustecs to whom he had conveyed such of
his estates as were not already settled on his wife. He named numerous relations, but
apparently had no children.
3 Eldest dau. of William-Henry de Nassau, Lord of Zuylestein, created Earl of Rochford
10 May 1695, by Jane, dau. and heiress of Sir Henry Wroth, of Durants, in Enfield, co.
Midx. She died unmarried.
See a baptism 17 Sep. 1693. On her gravestone she was called Mrs. Anne Carter,
and said to have died 4 April. William Carter, bachelor, and Anne Wells, widow, both of
St. Margaret's, Westminster, had a license to marry, from the Dean and Chapter, 28 Oct.
1663. See burials 22 Mch. 1712-13 and 29 Aug. 1714, both in the same place.
5 His will, as Edward Siston, of Whitehall, Midx., Ycoman of his Majesty's Wood-
Yard, dated 25 Mch. 1701, was proved 14 July following, by his friend Mr. Richard
Miller, steward to Sir Stephen Fox, and by his servant Thomas Beard, son of his servant
Mary Beard. He directed to be buried in the Cloisters of Westminster Abbey. He be-
queathed to Temperance Siston, widow of his late brother John Siston, £150, to her dau.
Jane £100, and to the other children of his said brother, viz., Elizabeth, Mary, Patience,
Sarah, and Rebecca, each £50, and similar sums to Edward, Anne, and Mary, children of
his late brother William Siston. To his sister Mary, wife of William Chaplin, he gave
£200, and to her children William, Robert, Michael, Mary, and Jane, each £30. To his said
servant Mary Beard he gave £250, and his goods and furniture in his rooms in the Wood-
Yard in Whitehall, and to said Thomas Beard her son £50 and all his apparel.
6 Third but second surviving son of Edward, sccond Earl of Carlisle, by Elizabeth, dau.
and cohcir of Sir William Uvedale, of Wickham, Hants, Kt. He was M.P. for Carlisle
in 1695 and 1698, and Luttrell says that at his death he was knight of the shire for
Northumberland. He died at Northampton, unmarried. See the burials of his sisters, 26
Aug. 1685 and 3 Nov. 1694.
7 Probably a second son of the same name of Thomas Jenings, Gentleman of the Chapel

4 Son of Rev. Joseph Williamson, Vicar of Bridekirk, co. Cumberland, and said to have
come to London while young, as clerk or secretary to a member of Parliament. He matriculated
at Oxford, from Queen's College, 18 Nov. 1650, as a servitor, and was B.A. 2 Feb. 1653-4, and M.A.

Margaret's, Westminster, Gent, dated 14 June 1701, was proved 20 Apl. 1702, and states that he
was of a very great age. He bequeathed his freehold estate at Chilton, in the parish of Atcham,
co. Salop, to his nephew Richard Cocks, of Shrewsbury, with remainder successively to numerous
nephews, nieces, and cousins, of the names of Cocks and Jones. He mentioned also his late

according to the marriage allegation, about twenty-three), James Graham, of Levcus, co.
Westmoreland, second son of Sir George Graham, second Bart. of Esk, co. Cumberland, who was

passage: It is my will to have my Effigie as well done in wax as can bee, and sett up neare
the old Duke Lodowicke and Duchesse Frances of Richmond and Lenox, but in a presse by

1 Mary, third dau. of Edward Coke, of Holkham, co. Norfolk, Esq., by Cary, dau. of Sir John
Newton, third Bart. of Barr's Court, co. Gloucester (see his marriage 22 June 1676), who were
married in June 1696. Her eldest brother, Sir Thomas Coke, K.B., was created Earl of Leicester
9 May 1744, but died without surviving male issue.
2 His will, as John Millward, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Clerk, dated 3 Apl. 1703, was
proved on the 29th of the same month, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by his nephew
John Millward, on behalf of George Millward, son and residuary legatee of the deccased, who
was named as exccutor, but was then in the West Indies. To his dau. Susanna Millward he left
£100, and to his brother-in-law Captain William Freeman a ring. No other relations are men-
tioned. He bequeathed the interest of £100 to the Dean and Chapter for pcrpetual charities.—
One of this name, son of Thomas Millward, of Old Swinnerton, co. Worcester, matriculated at
Oxford, from Pembroke College, 24 Mch. 1670-1, aged sixteen, but his name is not in the printed
list of graduates. One John Milward was A.B., as of Catherine Hall, Cambridge, in 1674, and
another, as of St. John's College, in 1690.
3 Dau. of Thomas Bolton, of St. Christopher-le-Stocks, citizen and grocer of London, by his
wife Jaue Downes. She was baptized at St. Christopher's aforesaid 27 Nov. 1649, and was married
to Dr. Horneck about 19 Feb. 1671-2 (Mar. Lic. Vic. Gen.). Her will, dated 14 Apl. 1703, was
proved on the 22nd of the same month, by Bartholomew Dutton, of St. Clement Danes, Midx.,
Gent., husband of her sister Honoria. See the burials, of her husband 4 Feb. 1696-7, of her dau.
8 Jan. 1734-5, and of her son 27 April 1746.
4 One of the Gentlemen Ushers of the Privy Chamber to Q. Anne, and had been one of her
Gentlemen Waiters when Princess. He died, according to his monument, 19 Apl., in his fortieth
year. See his wife's burial 9 July 1718, and the burials 6 Jan. 1700-1 and 30 Apl. 1708, probably
of members of his family, as they were all in the same locality. His son George was baptized
31 Jan. 1688-9, and his son John 29 Jan. 1690-1, both at St. Margaret's, Westminster.
See his baptism 22 Mch. 1668-9, and the burials, of his mother 4 Nov. 1671, and his father
5 Mch. 1699-1700. His will, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Gentleman, dated in May 1703,
was proved on the 15th of the same month, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by his nurse,
Elizabeth Paine, widow, to whom he left all his possessions.
6 Dau. of Samuel Vyner, of London, Esq. She married, first, at St. Martin in the Fields,
Midx., 21 May 1667, Francis Millington, of London, merchant, one of the Commissioners of the

buried at Wandsworth, co. Surrey. (See the marriage of their only child 18 May 1686, and her
burial 17 June 1718). See her second marriage, to Dr. Birch, 24 Nov. 1697, and his burial
4 July 1710. She was his second wife, and they appear to have had no issue. She died, accord-
ing to her monument, 25 May, aged fifty. Her husband administered to her estate 9 June
following, and in the record she is said to have died at Epsom, co. Surrey.

11 Sep. 1719. He was evidently the second son, and died in his infancy.
5 Charles, third son of Charles de St. Denis, Lord of St. Evremond. He was born at
St. Denis le Gast, in Normandy, 1 Apl. 1613, and succeeded to the estate of St. Evremond on the
death of his father. He passed his latter years in England, and occupied a certain rank among
the literary men of his day. A complete edition of his works was published in England in 1728.
He died 9 Sep., and his will, dated 24 Aug. 1703, was proved 17 Sep. following, by Henry, Earl
of Galway. It contains nothing of interest, except the statement that the Duchess of Mazarin
owed him £400 at her death.
Dau. of the Rev. Dr. Thomas Knipe, Head Master of Westminster School (see his burial
9 Aug. 1711), by his first wife, Anne (sce her burial 26 Aug. 1685). She married (Mar. Lic. Vic.
Gen. 16 Feb. 1696-7, then aged about twenty) Michael Arnold, junior, of St. Margaret's, West-
minster, Gent. (then aged about twenty-one), by whom she had two children, both baptized
at St. Margaret's, viz., Alicia, 30 July 1700, and Michael. 7 Sep. 1703: the former was living,
23 Feb. 1722-3, as Alicia Ross.

8 See his marriage 10 Feb. 1699-1700, as Captain Kirke, and his wife's burial 23 Dec. 1754.
While the Abbey Register calls him Colonel Kirk, Luttrell, in his Diary (v. 379), under the date
of 13 Jan. 1703-4, seems to mention his death, and describes him as "Major Kirk, of the Duke
of Northumberland's regiment of horse." His gravestone merely stated that George Kirk,
Esquire, died 10 Jan., and he is so also described in the record, when letters of administration
were granted to his relict, 6 Mch. following. It is difficult to determine his identity, by reason
of the mystery that surrounds the most of those of his name of this period. Luttrell gives an
account of a Captain Kirk who was found guilty of the manslaughter of Conway Seymour, Esq.,
and sentenced to be burned in the hand 29 Jan. 1699-1700, but that was only twelve days before
this Capt. Kirk was married. Sir David Kirke, Kt., who died in 1653-4, left an cldest son George,
but he would have been about sixty-five years of age in 1700.
9 See his wife's burial 16 June 1704.
10 Letters of administration to his estate, as Colonel Edward Leigh, of St. Martin in the
Fields, Midx., bachelor, were granted, 28 Jan. 1703-4, to his sister Anne Foyle, widow (see her
burial 28 Feb. 1737-8).

Gainsborough, who died 21 Sep. 1690, and secondly, John Sheffield, first Duke of the County of
Buckingham (sce his burial 25 Mch. 1721), to whom she was second wife. She died 7 Feb., aged
thirty-eight, leaving no issue by her second husband, but two daughters by her first, viz.,
Elizabeth, who married Henry Bentinck, first Duke of l'ortland (see his burial 3 Nov. 1726),
and Rachel, who married Henry, second Duke of Beaufort.
2 The Chapter Book, under the date of 16 Jan. 1687-8, recites that Collins, the bricklayer,
was dismissed from his employment, and he and his family were ordered to quit the singing-
man's house in the Cloisters which they occupied. A creditor administered to his estate, in the
Court of the Dean and Chapter, 7 Mch. 1703-4. See his wife's burial 21 Oct. 1704, and probably
his son's 20 May 1681.
3 According to his gravestone, he died 20 Feb., in his forty-seventh year. His will, dated
16 Feb. 1703-4, was proved on the 29th of the same mouth, in the Court of the Dean and
Chapter, by his relict Elizabeth see her burial 10 Dec. 1719, and the burials of his sons, 26

7 Addison's "Tom Brown of facetious memory." He is usually said to have been the son
of a farmer, and born at Shiffnal, co. Salop. He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church, 4
July 1678, aged fifteen, as son of William Brown, of Newport, co. Salop, and was B.A. 20 Mch.
1683-4. His writings were of a character not greatly to his credit, and his carly death may be
said to have closed a wasted life. He died 16 June, and was buried, perhaps not inappropriately,
near Mrs. Behn (sce her burial 20 Apl. 1689), with whom he had been intimate during his carly
life in London.
8 Fifth but fourth surviving son of Sir Francis Windebank, Kt., the well known Secretary
of State to K. Chas. I. He was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 11 June 1618, and

matriculated at Oxford, from New College, 23 Sep. 1634. He became a Fellow of his College,
and was created M.D., by order of Cromwell, 5 Apl. 1654. He afterwards studied abroad, and
eventually practised at Guildford, co. Surrey. He was admitted Honorary Fellow of the Royal
College of Physicians of London, 30 Sep. 1680. His will, as of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx.,
Doctor of Physic, dated 17 Feb. 1703-4, was proved 15 Aug. following, by his dau. Frances
Loveday, widow (sce her burial 14 Jan. 1736-7), whom he made his residuary legatee. The only
other bequests in his will were £100 cach to his grandchildren Susanna. Mary, Charlotte, John,
and Charles, children of his son Richard Windebank, all then in their minority. See the burial

3 Her coffin-plate (exposed in 1867) describes her as "daughter and sole heir to the Right
Hon. Thomas, Lord Fairfax, Baron of Cameron in the Kingdom of Scotland, by Ann his wife,
fourth daughter and one of the coheirs of the Right Hon. Horatio, Lord Vere of Tilbury," and
states that she died 20 Oct. 1704, in her sixty-seventh year. Her father was third Lord Fairfax,
the celebrated Parliamentary General, and she was his eldest and only surviving daughter, her
only sister having died in infancy. She was born 30 July, and baptized 1 Aug. 1638, at St.
Mary's, Bishophill, in the city of York, and married, at Bolton Percy, co. York, 15 Sep. 1657,
George Villiers, second Duke of Buckingham (see his burial 7 June 1687). She died without
issue. Letters of administration to her estate were granted, 7 Nov. 1704, to Ursula, Countess
Dowager of Plymouth, who was described as her cousin-german and next of kin.
4 Third son of Charles Somerset, Marquis of Worcester (eldest son of Henry, first Duke of
Beaufort, but died before his father), by Rebecca, dau. of Sir Josiah Child, first Bart. of
Wanstead, co. Essex. He died young. His mother, then Baroness-Dowager Granville, of
Potheridge, co. Devon, administered to his estate, as a minor, 14 Apl. 1709. He died 31 Dec.
1704, and Dart (ii. 55) says that his remains were removed 31 July 1712. If so, it was probably
that they might be interred with those of his mother, who died on the 27th of that mouth.
5 Second but eldest surviving son of the unfortunate James, Duke of Monmouth, and Lady
Anne Scott. He was born 23 May 1674, and married Lady Henrietta Hyde, dau. of Lawrence,
first Earl of Rochester (see her burial 3 June 1730). He died 14 Mch., of apoplexy. See the

as Envoy to Spain in Jan. 1691-2, to Savoy in May 1693, to Spain again in Feb. 1700-1, and to
Switzerland in Sep. 1702, where he appears to have remained until May 1705. He married (Mar.
Lic. Bp. Lond. 9 July 1702) Catherine Hildyard, then aged twenty-four, whose parents were
dead, by whom he had a son William, and an evidently posthumous dau. Sybilla (see her burial
11 June 1706). His will, as of Chelsea, Midx., Gentleman, dated 24 Nov. 1705, was proved
12 Jan. 1705-6, by the relict Catherine. He bequeathed to his son William £2,000 when of age,
to his unborn child £500, and to his sister-in-law, Mrs. Anne Hildyard, spinster, his gold watch.
No other relations are mentioned in the will. He was probably the one of this name in-
quired about in the Gentleman's Magazine, 1794, p. 685, and then supposed to be a native of
Cumberland.

¹ (Collectanea crroneously gives the name "Maryet.") Son of Thomas Mansell, of Briton
Ferry, co. Glamorgan, Esq. (see his burial 23 Dec. 1684), by his wife Elizabeth. dau. and heir of
Richard Games, of Penderyn, co. Brecon, Esq. He was M.P. for Cardiff. His will, dated 21 Dec.
1705, was proved 21 May 1706, by his kinsman Thomas Mansell. Esq., afterwards Baron Mansell,
of Margam, to whom he left his estates, with remainder to his sons in succession.
2 He was appointed Receiver-General and Solicitor to the Abbey by patent dated 5 Mch.
1680-1, but appears to have been connected with the Abbey as early as 13 Nov. 1662, when he
had the reversion of this patent. His will, dated 4 Feb. 1705-6, was proved 8 Mch. following, by
his relict Jane, and his son-in-law the Rev. William Needham. He had estates at Bacton and
Wyverstone, co. Suffolk. Besides his own family, he left legacies to his kinsmen Robert Cropley,
of Cambridge, Gent. and Mr. William Smith. See his wife's burial 7 Apl. 1708; the baptisms of
his children, 15 Mch. 1663-4, 5 Sep. 1666, 31 Mch. 1668, 13 Apl. 1670, and 21 Jan. 1672-3; the

daughters, 13 Feb. 1679-80 and 27 June 1681. He died 10 Feb., aged about seventy-five, as
in an affidavit to Dr. Busby's writing, dated 17 Feb. 1697-8, he stated his age to be then sixty-
seven. The name appears to have been indifferently written "Nedham" and "Needham."
3 Frances Purcell, widow of the eminent musical composer (see his burial 26 Nov. 1695).
She made a nuncupative will 7 Feb. 1705-6, “as she sat in a chair in the parlour of her dwelling
house at Richmond," co. Surrey. She appointed Mr. Thomas Tovey her executor, until her dau.
Frances Purcell should reach the age of eighteen, when she was to be her executrix, and she
proved the will 4 July 1706. The will states that "according to her husband's desire, she had
given her deare son [Edward] good education, and she alsoe did give him all the Bookes of
Musick in generall, the Organ, the double spinett, the single spinett, a silver tankard, a silver
watch, two pair of gold buttons, a hair ring, a mourning ring of Dr. Busby's, a Larum clock, Mr.
Edward Purcell's picture, handsome furniture for a room, and he was to be maintained until
provided for." All the residue of her property she gave to her said daughter Frances, and she
and her brother Edward were evidently her only surviving children. No other person was
named in the will. See the baptisms of her children, 9 Aug. 1682, 30 May 1688, 6 Sep. 1689,
and 10 Dec. 1693, and the burials of her sons, 17 Oct. 1682. 3 Aug. 1686, and 23 Sep. 1687.
4 She appears to have been a niece of Thomas Blagrave (see his burial 24 Nov. 1688), and is
so called in his will, and in that of his wife (see her burial 12 Oct. 1689), and she was cousin,
residuary legatee, and executrix of John Goodwin (see his burial 10 July 1693). She married,
first, John Frost, Gent. (see his burial 26 Dec. 1696), to whom she seems to have been second
wife, and was his executrix. She remarried (Mar. Lic. Fac.) about 12 July 1697, Dr. Charles
Goodall, Physician of the Charterhouse, afterwards President of the Royal College of Physi-
cians of London. Her age was then stated to be about fifty, and she was Dr. Goodall's
third wife. She died 17 Feb., and her will, dated 8 Jan. 1705-6, with codicils 13, 14, and
15 Feb., was proved 10 Apl. following. Dr. Goodall, having married a fourth wife, died
23 Aug. 1712, and was buried in the parish church of Kensington, Midx., his relict surviving
until Dec. 1732,

one shilling, and the residue of his property to his good friend Mrs. Mary Holmes, of St.
Margaret's, Westminster, who proved the will 8 Nov. 1706. According to his tombstone, he died
8 Nov., in his thirty-third year. The arms on the stone are those, cither of Burnaby of Watford,
co. Northampton, or those of the family of Baronets, of Broughton, co. Oxford; but, being un-

Dorothy (see her burial 6 Nov. 1724). Besides his uncle Bernard Stepney, he left legacies to his

cousins Charles Whitworth, Esq., and Mrs. Anne Baker.
¹ According to his gravestone, he died 21 Sept., in his forty-third year. Letters of adminis-

Lawrence, and considerable legacies to her niece Elizabeth Batty and her niece Thawyts, and
their children. She also bequeathed a gilt cup and cover, which had belonged to the late
Queen, and which she had purchased, to her good mistress the Countess Dowager of Derby,

1 The doubts about the parentage and place of birth of Sir Cloudesly Shovell have not
yet been set at rest. He is usually said to have been born in the county of Norfolk, in or
about the year 1650, and a modern writer positively names his birth-place as Cley. in that county,
and states that he was brought up in the trade of a shoemaker (Cust's Warriors of the
Seventeenth Century). It is also said that the record of his baptism, 25 Nov. 1650, occurs in the
parish register of Cockthorpe, in Norfolk. On the other hand, Abraham De la Pryme, in his
contemporaneous Diary (Surtees Society. 1869, p. 169), as positively asserts that he was a poor
lad, born in Yorkshire, who was first ostler at an inn at Redford, in Notinghamshire; after
that, being weary of his place, he went to Stockwith in Lincolnshire, where he turned tarpaulin.
and from thence, getting acquainted with the sea, he grew up to what he now is. The minute-
ness of this description, and the manner in which he is traced from place to place, gives this
statement an air of accuracy. Against it, however, is to be set the counter-statement of the
Rev. Gilbert Crokatt, Rector of Crayford, co. Kent, who, in 1708, published a Consolatory
Letter" addressed to Lady Shovell, then residing in his parish, and afterwards buried there. He
says: "As to the admiral, he was born in the year 1650, in the county of Norfolk, of an ancient
family, chiefly considerable for loyalty and plain downright honesty, which was therefore
natural and hereditary to Sir Cloudesly. Nor was it inconsiderable for estate; though that was
lessened by their faithful adherence to King Charles the First, of ever blessed memory. How-
ever, the good old gentlewoman, Sir Cloudesly's mother, being still alive. enjoys no contemptible
competency; which has been transmitted for many years from father to son in the family, and,
being by her son redeemed from some incumbrances, was by his natural affection continued
entire to his mother." Against this passage, in the margin, the writer placed this sentence:
"The great design of this is to correct some mistakes and false stories concerning Sir Cloudesly's
birth and education." It is possible that De la Pryme may have been misled by the "false
stories" mentioned, but he wrote his statement eleven years before, viz., in 1697, and apparently
with a knowledge of the facts. It is also not unlikely that the rector of Crayford was anxious
to say as much in favour of the deceased husband of his patroness as possible.
It seems
inconceivable, if his statement is correct, that the utmost vigilance of Norfolk antiquaries has
failed to discover any trace of his "ancient family," or that of the "gentlewoman" his mother,
or of the "estate" they held for so many generations in that county. It is probably safe to
assume that his origin was humble. His career, and the circumstances of his death. are matters
of history. His monument says that he was shipwrecked on the Scilly rocks, 22 Oct. 1707, in his
fifty-seventh year. He appears to have been knighted, on board his ship in Bantry Bay, 1 May
1689. He married, at Allhallows-Staining. London, 10 Mch. 1690-1, Elizabeth, dau. of John
Hill, Esq., Commissioner of the Navy, and widow of Admiral Sir John Narborough, Kt.. and his
marriage allegation (Vic. Gen.) gives his age as above thirty. Of his two daughters, the
eldest, Elizabeth. married Sir Robert Marsham, Bart., afterwards Lord Romney. Lady Shovell
died 15 Apl. 1732. His will, dated 29 Apl. 1701, was proved by his relict 13 Jan. 1707-8. He
left to his mother, then Mrs. Anne Flaxman, all his lands and tenements in Morston, co. Norfolk,
for her life, with remainder to his sister Mrs. Anne Shorton, or Shorten, and at her death they
were to go to his cousin John Thurston, and his heirs and assigns for ever. The children of his
said sister were named; and he also left legacies to his aunt Ringstead and her dau. Mary ;
his cousin Elizabeth Thurston, dau. of his aunt Thurston deceased; and William. Anne, and
Abigail Jenkinson, children of his uncle Cloudesly Jenkinsou. From these relationships, it
would seem an easy task for antiquaries of Norfolk or Yorkshire to settle the disputed question
of his ancestry, provided that they represented families at all above the lowest rank.

<<
Her mother, also mother of the first Lord Holland and of the first Earl of Ilchester, has
come down in the peerages, in the most extraordinary manner, as Christian, dau. of the Rev.
Charles Hope, of Nasely, co. Lincoln." How the error originally occurred it is impossible to say,
but it has been perpetuated from the earliest to the latest period, and even Sir Stephen Fox him-
self signed a pedigree in the College of Arms, in which the mistake distinctly appears. There
never was such a place as "Nasely" in Lincolnshire, nor, so far as is known, a clergyman of the
name of "Charles Hope" at that period. She was the dau, and coheir of the Rev. Francis
Hopes, of St. John's College, Cambridge, A.B. 1663, and A.M. 1667, Rector first of Iaceby, and
afterwards for twenty-three years of Aswarby, both in co. Lincoln. He died, "in his grand
climacteric," 13 Mch. 1704-5, and was buried at Aswarby, where a monument was erected to his
memory by his dau. Lady Fox, stating these facts, which are also otherwise confirmed. His wife
was Christian Palfreyman, and they were married at Haceby 25 Apl. 1670, where their dau.
Christian, afterwards Lady Fox, was baptized 12 Oct. 1677. According to the monument, the
mother died in 1687, aged forty. The dau. Christian. being then in her twenty-sixth year, was
married, at Chiswick, Midx., 11 July 1703, to Sir Stephen Fox, then in his seventy-seventh, and
had by him the issue already named, and another dau., Charlotte, who married Hon. Edward
Digby, son of William, fifth Lord Digby. Lady Fox died, at Bath, 17 Feb. 1718-19, and was
buried with her husband at Farley, co. Wilts. In her will, dated 16 Aug. 1718, she left an
annuity to her brother Francis Hopes and her sister Jane Burslem jointly, and considerable
legacics to Thomas and Christian Burslem, children of the latter. As the grandmother of the
celebrated statesman Charles-James Fox (sce his burial 10 Oct. 1806), it is well that her true
parentage should at last be put upon record.
4 The Rev. Francis-Durant de Bréval, according to Evelyn, "bad been a Capuchin, but
much better learned than most of that order." It is not exactly known when he became a Pro-
testant, or when he came to England, but he preached in London as carly as October 1669, and
his dau. Mary-Ann was buried at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, 14 Dec. in that year. He became
rapidly popular, for he was instituted Prebendary of Rochester in May 1671, installed Prebendary
of Westminster 21 Nov. 1675, and in the latter year created S.T.P., at Cambridge, by the royal
command. He was instituted rector of Milton, next Gravesend, co. Kent, 12 July 1680, and held

1 His monument states that he was first chosen M.P. in 1684, and was in most of the suc-
ceeding Parliaments until his death; that he was five years Governor of Barbados, and afterwards
one of the Commissioners of the Admiralty; and that he died at Carshalton, co. Surrey, 10 July
1708, in his sixty-first year. In his will, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, dated 2 July 1702,
he left small legacies to his cousin John Kendall, late of Treworgy [co. Cornwall], and his cousin
Agnes, dau. of his aunt Burbidge; but bequeathed his entire real and personal estate in England,
and his estate in Barbados called Kendall Plantation, with all the slaves, etc., and all monies due
to him there, to Mrs. Walker Colleton, eldest dau. of Col. Thomas Colleton, late of Barbados, de-
ceased, her heirs and assigns for ever, and appointed her, and her uncle John Meade, of the city
of Westminster, Gent.. his executors. The latter proved the will 13 July 1708. See the burial
of his niece 13 Mch. 1709-10.

Hall, 21 Apl. 1665, aged fifteen, but appears to have taken no degree. He subsequently entered
the Inner Temple, became a barrister-at-law, and was appointed a Master in Chancery 20 June
1685. Engaging in diplomatic pursuits, he became Envoy to l'ortugal in the carly part of the
reign of K. William III., and early in 1697 was appointed Lord Chancellor of Ireland, first
taking his seat on the woolsack 15 June in that year. He held this latter position until July or
August 1703, when he was again appointed Ambassador to Lisbon, and died there in that capacity,
suddenly, of gout and rheumatism, 13 July 1706, his remains being two years later brought to
this country. He was the author of the celebrated Treaty with Portugal which is still known by
his name, and was also of the Privy Council, and M.P. for Devizes. His will, dated 30 June
1702, was proved 11 Mch. 1706-7. See the burials, of his dau. 29 Apl. 1711, and of his son

1 The celebrated musical composer. He is always said to have been born, in 1648, at North
Collingham, co. Notts, but neither his name nor the names of any of his family are to be found
in the register of that parish at that period. His age at his marriage, as stated in the allegation,
23 Sep. 1674, was twenty-six, which accords with the above date. He was brought up in the
Chapel Royal, and became Organist of the Abbey in 1669, but resigned the position in 1680 in
favour of Henry Purcell, and resumed it on his death in 1695. He was sworn a Gentleman of
the Chapel Royal 16 Mch. 1673-4, aud became Master of the Children July 1674, Organist Oct.
1676, and Composer in 1699. He was also Almoner and Master of the Choristers at St. Paul's
from 1687 to 1693. His degree of Doctor of Music was conferred upon him by Archbishop
Sancroft. In 1685 he became a member of the Royal Band, and was appointed "Composer in
Ordinary to His Majesty." He died 1 Oct., and his will, dated 3 Jan. 1707-8, was proved 14 Oct.
following, by his three daughters. See the burials, of his wife 31 Oct. 1683; of his sons, 1 Sep.
1676 and 8 June 1693; and of his daughters, 9 Sep. 1719, 25 May 1730, and 22 Nov. 1738.
2 Youngest son of Frederick III., King of Denmark, by Sophia-Amalia, dau. of George,
Duke of Lunenburgh. The date of his birth was variously given in the journals of the day, and
has since been by various authorities, as 29 Feb., and 11 and 21 Apl. 1653; but the inscription
on his coffin-plate, as preserved in one of the Funeral Books of the Abbey, states that he was born
at Copenhagen 2 Apl. 1653. He married the Princess Anne, second dau. of K. James II. (see
her burial, as Queen Anne, 24 Aug. 1714), 28 July 1683, and was created, 9 Apl. 1689, Baron
Wokingham, of co. Berks; Earl of Kendal, co. Westmoreland; and Duke of Cumberland. He was
Lord High Admiral of England from 20 May 1702, and of Great Britain from 28 June 1707. He
died at Kensington 28 Oct., without surviving issue. See the burials of his children, 13 May
1684, 4 and 10 Feb. 1686-7, 22 Oct. 1687, 14 Oct. 1690, 18 Apl. 1692, 24 Mch. 1692-3, and 9 Aug.
1700.

1 Dec. 1708.
6 Arabella-Susanna, eldest surviving dau. of Hugh Hamilton, first Lord Hamilton, Baron of
Glenawly, co. Fermanagh, in Ireland, by Susanna, youngest dau. of Sir William Balfour, of
Pitcullo, co. Fife, Scotland, Kt. She was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 7 Feb. 1666-7,
and married, first, 3 June 1683, Sir John Magill, Bart. (of Ireland), who died without issue, and
secondly, about May 1700, Marcus Trevor, second Viscount Dungannon, who died in Spain.

second wife of Edward Lucy, who is described on the monument to her dau. in the Abbey as of
the ancient family of that name in co. Warwick, and who died before 13 Nov. 1678. Their son,
Joseph Lucy, was baptized at St. Bride's, London, 11 Sep. 1664, and evidently died young. Her
will, dated 29 Sep. 1708, was proved 19 Feb. 1708-9. Her bequests were chicfly to the children

been the second wife of Richard Smith, whose dau. Anuc, by his first wife, was second wife of
Sir William Loraine, second Bart. of Kirke-Harle, co. Northumberland. She left considerable
legacies to her nephew Alfred Howard, and her niece Mary Roch, son and dau. of Thomas
Howard, late of Dublin, Ireland, and the residue of her estate to her daughter-in-law Anne
Loraine and her children. Her husband is described in the baronctages as of Preston, co.

his first wife, of Richard Smith, Esq., who attended K. Charles II. in his exile, and was appointed

Chas. II. and James II. "with approved fidelity" upwards of fifty years, and died 2 June 1709,
in his eighty-fourth year. His wife died before him, and he must have married after he had
passed his sixtieth year, as his only son John (see his burial 10 Oct. 1715) was not born until
1688 or 1689. His will, as of St. James, Westminster, Esq., dated 11 Sep. 1707, with a codicil
29 Jan. 1708-9, was proved 16 June 1709, by Lancelot Burton, Esq., one of five persons named
as his trustees and executors in England. Denis Daly, of "Carowne Kelly," Esq., and James
Daly, of "Dunsandle," Esq., both in co. Galway, were his executors in Ireland. Between the
dates of the will and codicil, his daughter Mary had married Thomas Daly, Esq., and she
administered de bonis non to her father's estate, 6 Aug. 1753, as Mary-Power Daly, widow. He
left to his dau. "Anne alias Ursula Coleman" £10 per annum for life, and small bequests to his
sister Managhan and her children, his sister Helena (or Ellen) Kelly and her children, and his
sister Mary, whose heirs were to be heirs to half his estate if his own children died without

17 Aug. 1667). He was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 15 Mch. 1641-2. He was
Master of the Robes to K. Charles II., and was created, 24 Apl. 1681, Baron Hyde of Wotton
Bassett, co. Wilts, and Viscount Hyde of Kenilworth, co. Warwick, and, 29 Nov. 1682, Earl of
Rochester. He died 2 May. See his wife's burial 16 Apl. 1687, and the burials of his daughters,

Only child of Charles Granville, second Earl of Bath, by his second wife, Isabella, eldest
dau. of Henry de Nassau, Lord of Auverquerque (see her mother's burial 27 Jan. 1719-20). He
was born 30 Jan. 1691-2, and succeeded as third Earl of Bath in 1701, on the deaths of his

Newcastle 14 May 1694. He married Lady Margaret Cavendish, third dau. and coheir of Henry,

following. Sce the burial of their only dau. 26 Dec. 1755. He died 15 July, from the effects of
a fall from his horse while hunting.
5 He appears to have been the son of the Rev. Thomas Knipe, by his wife Anne. In the
record of his matriculation at Oxford, from Christ Church, 31 July 1658, he is called a clergy-
man's son, and his sister Mary (scc her burial 7 June 1685) was baptized at St. Margaret's, West-
minster, as the dau. of Thomas Knipe; while in the unofficial Abbey register, his own first wife,
Anne (see her burial 26 Aug. 1685), is described as Anne Knipe, junior. It is therefore probable
that these were the names of his parents. He was B.A. of Oxford 22 Feb. 1660, M.A. 1 Dec.
1663, and B.D. and D.D. 3 July 1695. He became an Usher of Westminster School in 1661,

* Relict of Thomas Betterton, the celebrated tragedian (sec his burial 2 May 1710), and her-
self an equally celebrated actress. The dates of her marriage and death, and place of her burial
appear to have been hitherto alike unknown to the biographers of her husband. In the marriage
allegation, on which was based the license from the Vicar-General, dated 24 Dec. 1662, she was
described as Mary Saunderson, of St. Giles Cripplegate, London, spinster, aged about twenty-five,
and the consent of her mother, [blank] Saunderson, widow, was attested by Enoch Darrack, of
St. Pancras, Soper Lane, London, grocer. They were to marry at Islington, Midx. Her private
character appears from universal testimony to have been without reproach, an instance almost
miraculous in her profession at the period in which she lived. After her husband's death the
Queen bestowed upon her a handsome pension. She is said to have lost her reason, from the
violence of her grief, and to have continued in that condition until shortly before her death; but
this statement must be taken with some degree of allowance, as her will, dated 10 Mch. 1711-12,
was accepted by the authorities as that of a sane person, and was proved 16 Apl. 1712, by her
niece Frances, wife of her nephew Mr. John Williamson. She left to her sister Mrs. Mary Head,
and to Mrs. Margaret Robinson and Mrs. Hannah Long, each £20 out of the arrears of her
pension, and to her nieces Mrs. Mary Kelly and Mrs. Anne Harrison each £5; but there is reason
to believe that they were relations of her husband, instead of her own. She bequeathed rings to
Mrs. Bracegirdle, Mrs. Barry, and a few other friends, and made her niece Frances Williamson
residuary legatee.
See her father's burial, Aug. 1670, and her mother's 11 Jan. 1672-3. She was born 11 Jan.
1639-40, and died unmarried. Letters of administration to her estate were granted 17 July 1712.
She died 25 May.
6 The Funeral Book calls her "a child." She was dau. of Rev. Humphrey Persehowse, one
of the minor canons of the Abbey (see his burial 2 Feb. 1762), by Deborah, dau. of John Rawlins,
of the city of Oxford, apothecary.
7 The celebrated Lord High Treasurer and Prime Minister. Third son of Sir Francis
Godolphin, K.B., by Dorothy, second dau. of Sir Henry Berkeley, of Yarlington, co. Somerset, Kt.
He was created Baron Godolphin 8 Sep. 1684, and Earl of Godolphin 29 Dec. 1706. He died at
the Duke of Marlborough's house, at S. Alban's, Herts, 15 Sep., aged sixty-seven. He married,
at the Temple Church, London, 16 May 1675, Margaret, fourth dau. and coheir of Thomas
Blagge, Esq. (see his burial Nov. 1660), Maid of Honour to Q. Catharine, who was buried at

Treasurer of the Chamber and one of the Tellers of the Exchequer, and succeeded his brother
Maurice, as fourth Viscount Fitzharding, in 1690. He died at Windsor 19 Dec., in his sixty-third
year, without male issue, and his titles became extinct. See the burials, of his wife 22 Sep. 1708;

2 The well-known writer, contemporaneously called "King of the Commons." He matricu-
lated at Oxford, from Christ Church (elected from St. Peter's College, Westminster), 16 Dec.
1681, aged eighteen, as son of Ezekiel King, of London, Gent.. and was B.A. 8 Dec. 1685,
M.A. 6 July 1688, and D.C.L. 7 July 1692. He held several public positions, but does not appear
to have made the best use of his powers and opportunities. Some sad stories are told of him, but
Dr. Johnson has perhaps furnished his most charitable epitaph: "Though his life had not been
without irregularity, his principles were pure and orthodox, and his death was pious." He died
25 Dec., and his will, dated the day before, was proved 21 Jan. following, by his sister Elizabeth
King, sole legatee and executrix.
3 See her mother's burial 27 Mch. 1752, and note thereto. She was born the 12th, and

According to his monument, he died 17 Jan., in his ninety-third year, and the arms
engraved thereon appear to be those of a Danish family of Günther, conferred, according to
Rietstap's Armorial Général, in 1638. His will, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster. Esq., dated
27 July 1708, was proved 14 Feb. 1712-13, by William Atwell, goldsmith, and John Cookes,
draper, both of London, whom he called his friends. His bequests, which were considerable,
were to Elizabeth, wife of Mr. Anthony Skinner, and her dau. Elizabeth, then wife of Mr. Phineas
Dabitot and formerly wife of Edward Cookes, and to her children by both husbands, viz.. Elizabeth
Seward, John Cookes, Mascall Cookes, Edward Cookes, Jane Cookes, Mary Cookes, and Henrietta-
Maria Dabitot.
5 Second but eldest surviving son of Richard, first Lord Vaughan in the peerage of England
and second Earl of Carbery in the peerage of Ireland, by his second wife, Frances, dau. and

St. Dunstan in the West, London, 18 July 1639, and succeeded, in 1687, as second Lord Vaughan
and third Earl of Carbery. He was Governor of Jamaica from 1675 to 1678. He married, first,
Mary, dau. of George Brown, of Green Castle, co. Carmarthen, Esq., by whom he had no issue;
and, secondly, at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 10 Aug. 1682, Lady Anne Savile, dau. of
George, first Marquis of Halifax, whom he survived, and by whom he left an only surviving dau.
and heir, Anne, who married Charles Paulet, third Duke of Bolton, and died without issue.
He died 16 Jan., and his titles became extinct. See the burial, probably of his only son, 7 May
1685.

¹ Only surviving son of Edward Hyde, third Earl of Clarendon (see his burial 5 Apl. 1723),
by Catharine, dau. of Henry O'Brien, Lord Ibrackan (see his burial 9 Sep. 1678). He was
baptized at St. James, Westminster, 6 Oct. 1691, and was commonly called Viscount Cornbury,
but succeeded to the Barony of Clifton on the death of his grandmother (see her burial 11 Nov.
1702, and note thereto). He died 12 Feb., unmarried. See his sister's marriage 24 Aug. 1713,

about 1686, as his second wife, Nicholas Bagenall, of Newry, in Ireland, and of Plas-Newydd,
Anglesey, Esq. (see the burial of his first wife 5 Scp. 1684, and note thereto), whom she survived.
See the burial of apparently her only child 9 Mch. 1687-8. Her will, dated 5 Mch. 1712-13, was
proved on the 10th of the same month, by her sister Lady Henrietta Ogle, widow, residuary
lcgatee, and contains the following curious direction, without any explanation: "It is my desire
that the Heart that is in the Urne be thence taken out and put into my Body with mine, and that
the said urne be sett over my grave."

eighth Earl of Pembroke and fifth Earl of Montgomery. He was born the 18th, and baptized at
St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 25 Mch. 1689, and died unmarried. Le Neve, in one of his MSS.,
says that he died of the small-pox, at the Earl of Pembroke's house.
5 See a baptism 19 Nov. 1710, and note thereto.
His relict Mary administered to his estate, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 13 May

the humblest circumstances.
7 The under-cook's wife.
See his burial 16 Feb. 1716-17.
9 It seems strange that the ancestry of one who occupied so prominent a position as Bishop
Sprat was never ascertained. He is usually said to have been a native of Talaton, co. Devon,
but the inscription on his monument distinctly states that he was the son of a clergyman, and
born in Dorsetshire. It has been recently claimed that Beaminster was his place of birth, but of
this there seems no sufficient proof. (One of his names matriculated at Oxford, from Lincoln
College, 16 Mch. 1626-7, aged eighteen, as son of John Sprat, of Bedwin, co. Wilts, who, from his
date and age, might have been his father.) He matriculated at Oxford, from Wadham College,
12 Nov. 1651, was afterwards a Fellow of that College, and had the degrec of D.D. 3 July 1669.
He was installed a Prebendary of Lincoln 20 Oct. 1660, and of Westminster 22 Feb. 1668-9, and
Canou of Windsor 14 Jan. 1680-1. He was at various times Chaplain in Ordinary to the King,

He left legacies to his sisters Bridget Tubb and Frances Hathorne; his nephews, Richard,
Thomas, and John Sadler, and John Hathorne; and his nicces, Mary Hathorne and Mary

London, dated 1 Aug. 1684. He was naturalized in England 21 Jan. 1684-5, and was incorporated
M.A. at Oxford 14 May 1688. He was installed Prebendary of Westminster 17 May 1688, and
had the rectory of Mixbury, co. Oxford, in 1710. He married, in 1704, the sister of the celebrated
Addison (see her burial 10 Mch. 1749-50), and died 3 Sep. 1713, aged sixty-four. His will, dated
19 Apl. 1711, with a codicil 28 Aug. 1712, was proved by his relict Dorothy, 26 Sep. 1713. He
left an annuity of £20 to his brother Francis Sartre for life, and directed the payment of £170
which he owed to the heirs or executors of his nephew Joseph Planchut, giving all the residue of
his estate to his wife.

burial 4 Aug. 1719), by Caroline-Elizabeth his wife (sec her burial 11 July 1696). He was
a Colonel of Horse, and commonly called by his father's second title. He died, unmarried,
5 Oct., and, according to the Funeral Book, aged twenty-four; but he is usually said to have
been born 15 Dec. 1683.
1 Child of Ralph Sims, Clerk of the Works (see his burial 5 Feb. 1720-1), by Dorothy
his wife (see her burial 14 Jan. 1729-30). She was born 28 Sep. and baptized at St.
Margaret's, Westminster, 18 Oct. 1713. She is distinctly described in the Funeral Book, at
that time kept by her father.
2 He is said to have been born in the City of Lichfield 7 Oct. 1636. He was elected to
Cambridge, from St. Peter's College, Westminster, in 1656, and had the degree of A.B. there,
but was subsequently incorporated B.A. at Oxford, where M.A. 10 July 1661, as of Lincoln
College, when his name appears as Withnoll, and B.D. 25 May 1669. After various minor
preferments at Exeter and Dublin, he was consecrated Bishop of Cork and Ross 23 Mch.
1678-9, and translated to Kilmore and Ardagh 18 Apl. 1699. He died in London 12 Nov.
See the burial of his second wife 18 Apl. 1717, and of his son 29 Aug. 1733.
3 Called the "Father of English Watchmakers." He is said to have been originally a
blacksmith, and was evidently a native of, or resided in early life at, Northill, co. Beds.
A James Tompion, described as a watchmaker from London, was buried there 24 Jan.
1742-3, and one of the name has the credit of constructing the clock of that church. Unfortu-
nately the parish registers of Northill, from 1598 to 1672, are lost. The name, however, was
long common there. He was made free of the Clockmakers' Company, of London, 4 Sep. 1671,
and, after serving in the minor offices, became master of his Company 29 Sep. 1704. According
to his monument, he died 20 Nov. in his seventy-fifth year. His will, dated 21 Oct. 1713, was
proved 27 Nov. following, by George Graham (see his burial 23 Nov. 1751),. He bequeathed his
tenements and lands in Ickwell, in the parish of Northill aforesaid, to his nephew Thomas, son
of his late brother James Tompion, and the use of £500 for life to his niece Margaret, wife of
Edward Bangor, citizen and clockmaker of London, and dau. of his late sister Margaret Kent,
with remainder to his niece Elizabeth, wife of said George Graham, and dau. of his said
late brother James Tompion. He also left £400 to Rebecca Nodes, dau. of his late niece Eleanor
Nodes, who was the eldest dau. of his said sister Margaret Kent, and £50 to his cousin Thomas
Finch. The residue of his estate he gave to his executor.
4 Son of William Hickman, of Barnack, co. Northampton, Gent. He matriculated at Oxford,
from Christ Church, 13 July 1667, aged eighteen, and was B.A. 7 June 1671, M.A. 7 Apl. 1674,
B.D. 9 July 1684, and D.D. 6 Feb. 1684-5. He was at various times chaplain to several distin-
guished personages, and incumbent or lecturer of various parishes, and was consecrated
Bishop of Derry 11 June 1703. He married, at the Chapel of Chelsea Hospital, in Apl.
1703, Anne, younger dau. of Sir Roger Burgoyne, second Bart. of Sutton, co. Beds, who died
before him, leaving one dau. named Annc. In the marriage license (Faculty Office), dated
2 Apl., he was described as Rector of Farnham-Royal, co. Bucks. He died at Fulham,

St. Botolph, Bishopsgate, London, and afterwards incumbent of Solihull, co. Warwick, where
he died in 1705, by Elizabeth, dau. of Rev. Thomas Pittis, D.D., his predecessor at St. Botolph,
and niece of Sir William Stephens, of Barton, Isle of Wight, Kt. His age, according to the
Funeral Book, was seventeen, and he was admitted into St. Peter's College, Westminster, in
1711, aged fifteen.
2 A child, according to the Funeral Book, aged eleven months. See the burial, probably
of her brother, 12 Aug. 1716.
3 Dau. of the Head Master of Westminster School, by Jane, dau. of Rev. Dr. Samuel
De L'Angle (see the note to the baptism of her brother 16 Feb. 1684-5). She was born
12 Feb., and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, Mch. 1713-14. See the note to the
baptism of her brother 10 Mch. 1714-15, and the burial of another brother 16 Jan. 1722-3.
4 Son of Richard Richbell, of the island of Madeira, Esq., by Mary his wife, who, being then
his widow, died on board H.M.'s ship "The Bonadventure," and letters of administration to her
estate were granted 8 June 1713. He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church, 17 Dec. 1713,
aged eighteen, and died in St. Paul's, Covent Garden, Mdx., 4 Apl. following. His sister Mary ad-
ministered to his estate 4 May 1714 (see her burial 16 Nov. 1721). His father was evidently a
son of Robert Richbell, Alderman of Southampton, by his wife Frances Baker, of the same place.
5 The Funeral Book gives his age as seventy. See his wife's burial 14 Mch. 1706-7. The
name of "W. West" is cut in various chapels and vaults, once, in the south aisle of Henry
Seventh's Chapel, with the addition of "Tomb-shower."
6 One of this name was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 23 Feb. 1706-7, as dau, of
Humphrey Evans, Gent., and Sarah his wife.
7 Dau. of Ralph Freke, of Hannington, co. Wilts, Esq., by Cecilia, dau. of Sir Thomas
Colepeper, of Hollingbourne, co. Kent. She married her kinsman, Percy Freke, of West Bilney,
co. Norfolk, and of the Middle Temple, Esq., apparently under some difficulties. They had a
license from the Vicar-General 23 June 1669, she then being described as of St. Martin in the
Fields, Midx., aged about twenty-two, but no marriage appears to have taken place. They
obtained another license from the same official 7 Aug. 1672, she being described as of the same
age, and they were married at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, Midx., 14 Nov. in that year. They
were again married at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 26 June 1673. Their son Ralph was created
a Baronet 4 June 1713. Her husband's will, dated 3 Feb. 1705-6, was proved 1 July following,
According to her monument, she died 7 Apl., aged sixty-ninc; but the Funeral Book, evidently
quoting the inscription on her coffin-plate, gives her age as seventy-three. See the burials of
her sisters, 24 May 1716 and 9 Mch. 1730-1.

¹ The Funcral Book says "aged eight years." Evidently a son of Colonel Thomas Garth
(see his burial 11 Jan. 1730-1), by Elizabeth his wife (see her burial 28 July 1746), who was
buried in his grave.
2 Dau. of Robert Wheatley, of Brecknol, co. Berks. She married, first, Thomas Lucy, of
Charlecote, co. Warwick, Esq., Captain in the Earl of Oxford's regiment, and secondly, early in
1685-6, George Fitzroy, Duke of Northumberland (see his burial 11 July 1716), to whom she was
first wife. The common report of the period, repeated by Luttrell on two occasions (i. 373 and
iii. 39), was that she was "a poulterer's daughter." If true, it is curious that the "poulterer
found what would be called good matches for his three daughters. This one married, first, a
gentleman of an old family, and then a Duke; her sister Anne married Lord George Douglas,
first Earl of Dumbarton; and their sister Elizabeth, according to Luttrell, married a brother of
the Duke of Berwick. All three were inmates of the Convent at Hammersmith, at different
periods, and in a copy of an official list (penes the Editor), carefully annotated by the Lady
Abbess, two of these marriages are noted. Certainly the social position of the inmates of that
institution was not usually such as is indicated by the alleged parentage of the Duchess of
Northumberland. She died 25 May, apparently without issue.

Isham, whose name is cut in various vaults and chapels, probably one of the Abbey workmen.
"Ordered, that Mr. Jackson, the College Baker, be turned out of his place, for evident
proof of several frauds confessed by him," etc. (Chapter Book, 20 Jan. 1712-13). On 4 Feb.

burial 22 Mch. 1712-13, and a burial in the same place 9 Apl. 1701.
2 He is said to have been bred a chorister at Lincoln, and to have served afterwards at
Durham, and also to have failed as an actor in London, owing to his "ungainly figure and clumsy
actions." He was sworn a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal 2 Aug. 1702, an additional place, ac-
cording to the Cheque Book, having been created for him. He appears to have been a very
popular member of the choir, and is said to have died in his thirty-eighth year. Letters of ad-
ministration to his estate were granted, 9 Nov. 1714, to John Peachey, curator assigned to his
minor children, Anne and Bridget, his relict Catherine renouncing (see her burial 15 Dec. 1715).
An unaccountable error in the date of his burial occurs in the text. The newspapers of the day,
the Cheque Book of the Chapel Royal, and every other authority that mentions him, all say that
he died 29 Oct., and the Funeral Book gives the date of his burial as 1 Nov. There can be no
doubt that this latter date is correct.
3 He is called the College beadle in the Funeral Book, and is mentioned as such in the
Chapter Book 6 May 1710. See his wife's burial 3 Dec. 1728, and burials 6 Sep. 1769 and 1 July
1771.
Only dau. of Sir John Lort, second Bart. of Stackpool Court, co. Pembroke, by Lady

of Cawdor Castle, co. Nairn, whom she survived. They were ancestors of the present Earl
Cawdor. According to her monument, she died 28 Sep., in her forty-ninth year.
5 Eldest dau. of James Scott, Earl of Dalkeith (see his burial 19 Mch. 1704-5), by Lady
Henrietta Hyde, second dau. of Lawrence, first Earl of Rochester (see her burial 3 June 1730).
She died, according to her coffin-plate, 11 Oct., in her nineteenth year.
6 In the Funeral Book she is called "Mrs. Ann Hearne." John Hearne, "Abbey plumber,"
was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 11 Nov. 1713; but no wife is mentioned in his will,
and his dau. Ann was the wife of William Jones. He may have omitted to name her, as being
already provided for.
7 Son of Evan Lloyd, Esq., by his wife Ann Vaughan, who remarried Thomas Morice, Esq.
(see her burial 24 Oct. 1693). According to his monument, he was of the family of his name at Yale,

dated 28 June 1714, was proved 25 Nov. following, by his kinswoman Ann Lloyd, relict of Capt.
Thomas Lloyd, to whom he left most of his estate (see her burial 23 Feb. 1721-2). He be-
queathed small legacies to his half-sister Anne Horden (see her burial 28 Aug. 1747), the widow
of his half-brother Thomas Morice, his niece Mrs. Ann Porter, and his kinsman Capt. Macdolf

secondly, Lady Dorothy Brudenell, dau. of Robert, second Earl of Cardigan, and relict of Charles
Fane, third Earl of Westmoreland (see her burial 6 Feb. 1739-40). He died, according to his
monument and the Funeral Book, 23 Nov., in his sixty-fourth year. His only child, Mary, by
his first wife, was baptized at St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., 1 Sep. 1672.
¹ He was admitted to St. Peter's College, Westminster, in 1697, and elected to Cambridge in
1702, where A.B. 1795 and A.M. 1709, and became a Fellow of Trinity College. He was appointed
second master of Westminster School in 1711. He died 30 Nov., aged thirty-one. (Perhaps a
son of George Tollett, Esq., one of the Commissioners of the Navy, whose wife Elizabeth died
6 Feb. 1702-3, aged forty-one, and was buried at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx.)
2 Fourth dau. of William-Adrian de Nassau (second son of Henry, Lord of Auverquerque),
Lord of Odyke, Zeist, etc., who was created a Count of the Empire by the Emperor Leopold, and
was premier nobleman of Zealand, and wife of her cousin-german, Count William-Mauritz
(usually called Maurice) de Nassau (fourth but third surviving son of Henry de Nassau, Lord of
Auverquerque, Master of the Horse to K. William III.), lieutenant-general in the service of the
States-general, and governor of Sluice. She died 6 Dec., in her thirty-fourth year. The Funeral
Book gives these facts from her coffin-plate. See the burial of her husband's mother 27 Jan.
1719-20, and note thereto.
3 Wife of David Davis, Yeoman Usher of the Black Rod (see his burial 29 Oct. 1716). She
died, according to the Funeral Book, 18 Dec., in her forty-seventh year. See her son's burial
25 Nov. 1708.
4 Only son of John Lister, of Linton, co. York, Esq., by Jane, dau. and heir of Christopher
Constable, of Great-Hatfield, in the same county. His age, according to the Funeral Book, was
seventy-nine. His will, dated 29 June 1714, was proved 26 Apl. 1715, by his nephew Thomas
Southby, of Birdsall, co. York, Esq., to whom he left his entire estate, and who was his sister's son.
The difficulty in identifying this lady is increased by the fact that in the Funeral Book she
is called "Viscountess," and her age stated to be forty-six. The word "Viscountess" appears to
be a misnomer. After the death of James, third and last Earl of Tyrone, in 1704, one John
Power, calling himself Lord Power, probably claiming the old Barony as heir male, petitioned
Q. Anne, mentioning that his son was being educated a Protestant, and in 1715 a pension was
granted to "Lord Power, a person of suspected principles in London." He died 21 Aug. 1725,
aged eighty, leaving a son Henry, and a dau. Clare, who was his executrix. He was a widower
at the date of his will, 10 July 1717, and had then another dau., Charlotte, who died before him.
The lady named in the text may have been another of his daughters, or, possibly, his wife. There
seems no other place for her in the pedigree of the noble family of this name.
6 Dau. of Sir Dudley Carleton, Kt., some time H.M's. Resident in Holland and afterwards
Clerk of the Council in Ordinary, who was buried at St. James, Clerkenwell, Midx., 9 Mch.

John Ferrers, of Tamworth Castle, co. Warwick, Esq. (only son of Sir Humphrey Ferrers, Kt.,
by Anne, dau. of Sir John Pakington), who died 14 Aug. 1680. She died, according to the
Funeral Book, at the age of ninety. Her will, dated 9 July 1712, was proved 10 May 1715, by her
dau. Dorothy, Countess Dowager of Arran (see her husband's burial 27 Jan. 1685-6). She
directed to be buried in the Abbey, near her great-uncle Dudley, Viscount Dorchester (see his

created Baron Halifax 13 Dec. 1700, and Viscount Sunbury and Earl of Halifax 19 Oct. 1714,

This entry
is not in the Register, but in the Funeral Book of that period, whtch was evidently kept by the

He matriculated at Oxford, from Jesus College, 3 Mch. 1664-5, aged sixteen, as son of
Richard Lucas, of Presteigne, co. Radnor, ranking as a poor scholar, and was B.A. 22 Oct. 1668,

1678, and was also lecturer at St. Olave, Southwark, in Surrey. He was installed Prebendary of
Westminster 5 Mch. 1696-7, according to the usual authorities, but the Chapter Book gives the
date as 13 Feb. in that year. During the latter part of his life he was totally blind, but was
the author of several theological works which were much respected in their day. He died
29 June, and his will, dated 2 Mch. 1713-14, was proved 20 July 1715, by his eldest son Robert.

¹ Relict of Nicholas Lowe (see his burial 30 Sep. 1706), and mother of Charles Lowe,

Sir George Herbert, of that place, Kt., the first Sheriff of that county in 1541-2, and died
18 Sep., in his twenty-third year. He left an only son, Thomas, who was born the 13th, and
baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 27 Oct. 1713. See his wife's burial, as Elizabeth

grandfather Ralph Sims.
5 Her gravestone simply stated that she died 30 Sep. In Neale and Brayley's History of
the Abbey (ii. 288) she is wrongly identified as the mother of the celebrated Addison. His
father died in 1703, and it was his first wife whose name was Jane. This person died intestate,
and was probably of the household of one of the Prebendaries or other officials.
6 (In the Funeral Book only.) Son of Rev. Humphrey Persehowse, minor canon (see his

and she was buried in her husband's grave: see his burial 1 Sep. 1714. Her will, as of St. Faith's,
London, dated 22 Oct. 1715, was proved 24 Dec. following, by her brother George London and
Mr. John Peachey, of Paternoster Row, silkman (husband of her sister Henrietta), whom she
appointed guardians of her two children, Anne and Bridget. She mentioned also her brother
John London.
¹ Son of John Bolte (or Boulte, as the name was more often written), of St. Margaret's,
Westminster, whose will he proved, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 6 Dec. 1700.
He was
some time one of the Clerks in the Annuity Office of the Exchequer, and at his death
Deputy-Teller of the Exchequer. He died 19 Dec., aged, according to the Funeral Book, thirty-
nine years, three months, and fifteen days. He married Elizabeth, dau. of John Clayton,

his burial 15 Feb. 1683-4), by his first wife, Elizabeth, dau. of Sir Peter Osborne, Kt. She was
baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 19 July 1641, and was unmarried 14 May 1684, when
she renounced administration to her father's cstate; but married. late in that year, or early in
1685, as his second wife, Sir Thomas Longueville, second Bart. of Wolverton, co. Bucks, who
died 25 June 1685, and, according to his monument, a few months after his second marriage.
She died 30 Dec. 1715, without issue, and both the Funeral Book and her monument give her
age as seventy, which is an error, unless the child baptized in 1641 died in infancy, and she were
a second one of her name. See her sister's burial immediately following her own.
4 Third dau. and coheir of Sir Thomas Peyton, second Bart. of Knowlton, co. Kent, by his
first wife, Elizabeth, dau. of Sir Peter Osborne, Kt. She married William Longueville, of the

1689, Baron Torbay and Earl of Torrington, co. Devon. He was in the naval service, and several

which he does not seem to have deserved. He married twice, but left no issue, and his titles.
became extinct. He died 14 Apl., and the Funeral Book gives his age as sixty-seven. His will,
dated 30 Mch. 1716, was proved 19 Apl. (three days before his burial), by four trustees to whom
he bequeathed all his personalty. His freehold manors, lands, etc., he left to Henry Clinton, Earl
of Lincoln, for life, with remainder to Greenwich Hospital for ever. The only relation he men-
tioned was his sister Agar, to whom he left an annuity of £100 for life.

His will, as of St. Catherine's, by the Tower of London, Gent., dated 19 May 1716, was
proved 28 June following, by his brother William. He left small legacies to his brother Johu
and his wife and their dau. Hannah, and to his nephew Francis and the other children of his
brother William, to be applied to their use by his friend Mr. Robert Cross, of Westminster,
brewer. The residue of his estate, which he said was small, and mostly beyond the sea, he left

eight o'clock, p.m. and baptized at Hackney, Midx., on the 18th of the same month. In the
parish register of Hackney his father is described as a "gentleman," and is usually said tɔ have
been of the heraldic family of his name in Lincolnshire. Dr. South, in his will, bequeathed a
ring engraved with his father's arms, which gives colour to this presumption. He matriculated
at Oxford, from Christ Church (elected from St. Peter's College, Westminster), 11 Dec. 1651, and

was B.A. 24 Feb. 1654-5, M.A. 12 June 1657, and B.D. and D.D. 1 Oct. 1663. He became Chaplain
in Ordinary to K. Charles II., and was installed Prebendary of Westminster 30 Mch. 1663, and
Canon of Christ Church 29 Dec. 1670. He had the rectory of Islip, co. Oxford, in 1678, and
became Archdeacon of Westminster 24 Oct. 1713. He died at Caversham, near Reading, 8 July.
His will, dated 30 Mch., with a codicil 2 June 1714, was proved 24 July 1716. Hearne's animad-
versions upon this will, as well as upon the testator and his exccutrix (see Reliquice Hernianæ,
2nd edit., ii. 38-9), are simply unfounded, cruel, and abominable, as the will itself abundantly
proves. Dr. South's nearest relations were the children and grand-children of his half-brother
and sister, and for them, although they had treated him unkindly. he provided in the most ample
manner, leaving the moderate residue of his estate to the widow of a clergyman. who, he stated,
had been his faithful housekeeper for thirty-five years.

4 The Funeral Book gives his age as sixty-nine.
He had been First Groom of Her Majesty's Poultry Office, and at his death was Yeoman
Usher of the Black Rod. According to the Funeral Book, he died 25 Oct., in his fifty-fourth year,
and was buried with his wife: see her burial 23 Dec. 1714, and his son's 25 Nov. 1708. The
newspapers of the day say that he died suddenly, and describe him as Deputy-Usher of the Black
Rod, Doorkeeper to the House of Lords, Purveyor of the King's Kitchen, and a Gentleman
Porter at Whitehall. His will, dated 20 Oct. 1716, was proved, in the Court of the Dean and
Chapter, 3 Nov. following. He left handsome legacies to his brother Walter Davis, and his sister
Dorothy Chamberlaine alias Knight, and the residue of his estate, which appears to have been
considerable, to his only surviving child, Rachel, then a minor. In one of Le Neve's MSS., under
date of December, in this same year, it is said that she had already, since her father's death,
married John Capell, Esq., one of the Exons of the Yeomen of the Guard; but Le Nere's MS.
notes, evidently recording the mere gossip of the day, as well as actual facts, are not always to
be trusted.

three, and he is said to have been one of the Gentlemen of the Chapel Royal, but his name does
not appear in the Cheque Book. His relict Elizabeth administered to his estate 16 Aug. 1717

ordering his admission to Emery Hill's almshonses, and a similar one, 15 June 1719, for Ann
Sims, probably his widow.

son of Sir Henry Parker, of Honington, co. Warwick, Bart., and, secondly, Michael, Lord
Dunkellin, eldest son of the Earl of Clanricarde (see her burial 7 Jan. 1732-3). The Funeral
Book gives his age as sixty-seven. His will, as of St. Clement Danes, Midx., Esq., dated 7 July

Orlebar, Esq., one of the Masters in Chancery, and Mr. Conrade de Gols, cxecutors in trust for
his two daughters (evidently his only children), Anne, Lady Dunkellin, and Mary, who was

left his house in Beaufort Buildings, and all his personalty. No other relations are named
in the will, except his sister Sarah Bassett, his brother Thomas Mulso, and his cousin Mr. William
Wright, to each of whom he left a handsome sum for mourning. He has hitherto been con-
founded in the accounts of the Clanricarde peerage with one of his name, of this period, who
was Speaker of the House of Commons, but who survived him some years. The person named
in the text was appointed one of the commissioners of the excise in Aug. 1698, and is described

• Son of Robert Cornewall, of Berington, in the parish of Eye, co. Hereford, Esq., by Edith,
dau. of Sir Francis Cornwallis, of Abermarlais, co. Carmarthen, Kt. He entered the Navy at an
early age, attaining his senority 19 Sep. 1692, when he had command of the "Portsmouth " sloop-
of-war, and reached the rank of Vicc-Admiral of the White 15 Mch. 1716-17. He died, according
to the Funeral Book, at Lisbon, 7 Oct., in his forty-ninth year. His will, dated 22 Dec. 1716,
was proved 26 Jan. 1718-19, by his eldest surviving son Robert. He appears to have been twice
married, his second wife being Dorothy, dau. of Thomas Haumer, of Hanmer, co. Flint, Esq.

p. 118).

1702-3. According to the Funeral Book, he died 25 Feb.
• See the note to her brother's burial, 22 Sep. 1707. She died, unmarried, 13 Mch., according

was £1500 to Mrs. Charlotte Whetstone, who then lived with her. Her sister Dorothy ad-
ministered to her estate 2 Apl. 1719, and, according to the newspapers of the day, succeeded to

7 Hon. Archibald Hamilton, commonly called Lord Archibald Hamilton, was the youngest
son of Anne, Duchess of Hamilton, by Lord William Douglas, who was created, 12 Oct. 1660,
Duke of Hamilton for life. He was baptized at Hamilton 17 Feb. 1672-3, entered the navy, and
had a captain's commission in 1693. He was Governor of Jamaica in 1710, commanded a man-

but in the newspapers of the day as the "widow of Sir Francis Hamilton, of the kingdom of
Ireland." The marriage took place, according to the same authorities, 17 Dec. 1718, evidently in
WESTMINSTER ABBEY.

Ireland, and she died 29 Mch. following. Before the end of the year, viz., 29 Sep. 1719, Lord
Archibald married, thirdly, Lady Jane Hamilton, fifth dau. of James, sixth Earl of Abercorn.
This marriage was by special license, dated 26 Sept., and appears to have been solemnized at
Taplow. By his first and second marriages Lord Archibald had no issue, but by his third he had
several children. See the burial of their son 5 June 1744, and of their dau. 6 Mch. 1800. Their
mother died at Paris 6 Dec. 1753, and was buried at Montmartre. Lord Archibald died in Pall
Mall, Westminster, 5 Apl. 1754, being then senior captain in the royal navy, and was buried at
Taplow.
1 Second wife and relict of Aubrey de Vere, twentieth and last Earl of Oxford (see his burial
22 Mch. 1702-3). She died 7 Apl., and her dau. Lady Mary (see her burial 8 Aug. 1725) ad-
ministered to her estate 5 June following, See also the burial of another dau. 2 Oct. 1730, and
the burials of (probably) her half-sisters, 23 May 1640 and 4 Aug. 1687. She was a dau. of
George Kirke, the notorious Groom of the Bedchamber to K. Chas. II., by his second wife,
Mary, dau. of Aurelian Townshend, Esq., who is said to have been nearly allied to the noble family
of that name, and to have succeeded Ben Jonson as composer of masques for the Court. The
ancestry of George Kirke has never been ascertained, nor is it of much consequence. After such
a career as his, he may well sink into oblivion. He was Gentleman of the Robes and one of the
Grooms of the Bedchamber to K. Chas. II. On the 29th of June 1633, the arms he then bore,
viz., "Gules, a crosier in bend sinister (the crook downwards) or, surmounted by a sword in bend
dexter argent, hilted and pommelled or, the handle barry wavy or and azure, a chief or, issuant
therefrom a thistle vert seeded proper," were confirmed to him by Lyon King Arms in Scotland,
and the following crest assigned him, viz., " Upon a wreath or and gules a hand holding a sword
wreathed with two branches of laurel proper, and above all. in a scroll, the motto Virtute.'”
These arms, according to a herald-painter's work-book in the College of Arms, were painted on
an escutcheon ordered on the death of his first wife, Anne Killigrew (see her burial 9 July 1641).
He married his second wife, in Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, 26 Feb. 1645-6, and, according
to Dugdale's Diary (p. 84) "the King gave her, she being the admired beauty of the times."
What became of him during the interregnum is not known, but, shortly after the Restoration, he
appears as Groom of the Bedchamber to K. Chas. II., and Housekeeper of the Palace of White-
hall, and in 1664 he had a pension of £500. The details of his life in this double capacity are
too well known to require repetition. Even the date of his death has been hitherto unknown,
but there is little doubt that he was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 26 May 1675, as
"George Kirke, Esquire." He died intestate, but letters of administration were granted 22 Jan.
1679-80, limited to a certain statute staple in favour of Henry Killigrew. Esq., in which he was
interested, and in the record he was said to have died about four years last past. Precisely at
this time, also, his second wife was receiving a pension of £250, as his widow. She survived
him more than a quarter of a century, her will being dated 11 Apl. 1701, and proved 16 Feb.
1701-2. She was baptized at St. Giles, Cripplegate, London, 8 Apl. 1626.
2 Son of Rev. Humphrey Persehowse, minor canon of the Abbey (see his burial 2 Feb. 1762),
by Deborah, dau. of John Rawlins, of the city of Oxford, apothecary.
³ Eldest son of Sir William Howard, K.B. (who was created Baron of Stafford 12 Sept. and
Viscount of Stafford 11 Nov. 1640, but beheaded 29 Dec. 1680, when the honours were forfeited),
by Mary, dau. of Edward Stafford (see her burial Jan. 1693-4). The attainder having been
reversed, 3 Junc 1685, he succeeded to his father's titles, and was created Earl of Stafford 5 Oct.
1688. He followed K. James II. into France in the same year, and there married, at St. Germain-
en-Laye, 3 Apl. 1694, Claude-Charlotta, eldest dau. of Philibert, Count de Grammont. The
marriage does not seem to have proved a happy one, as in his will, dated 2 Feb. 1699-1700, occurs
the following extraordinary passage:-"I give to the worst of women, except being a . . . . .,
who is guilty of all Ills, the daughter of Mr Grammout, a Frenchman, who I have unfortunately

credit for such a purchase, being the worst of men, and his wife the worst of women, in all
Debaucheries: had I known their character, I had never married their daughter, nor made myselfe
unhappy." There were two codicils to this will, dated 3 Sep. 1712 and 22 Mch. 1715-16, but his
wife was not again mentioned, and it was proved 2 July 1719, by Hon. Henry-Charles Howard,
surviving executor. The Earl died without issue 27 Apl., according to his coffin-plate, in his
seventy-second year. Le Neve, in one of his MSS., says that his wife died the same night, at
Paris; but her will, dated in London 13 May 1739, was proved three days later, by Charles,
Earl of Arran, to whom she left all her possessions.
1 According to the Chapter Book, he had the reversion of an almsman's place 23 Feb. 1686-7.
See his son's burial 4 May 1720.
2 The Funeral Book gives his age as seventy-two. His son Joseph administered to his
estate, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, on the 30th of the same month, and in the record
he was described as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, widower.-"On Tuesday night died
Dr. Birch, an eminent Physician, at his house in King Street, Westminster. He was aged
ninety-six [sic], and was in perfect health till a day or two before he died. He has left a small
pittance of about £30,000 to his son" (Original Weekly Journal, Saturday, 20 June 1719).—It
will probably be safer to accept the evidence of his coffin-plate, as preserved in the Funeral Book,
as to his age.
3 Son of Rev. Dr. Lancelot Addison, Dean of Lichfield, by his first wife, Jane, dau. of
Nathaniel Gulston, Esq., and sister of William, Bishop of Bristol. He was born at Milston,
Wilts, 1 May 1672, and his subsequent career is too well known to require any account of it.
As the author of the Spectator he will probably be remembered when it has been forgotten that
he was a Secretary of State. By his wife, the Countess Dowager of Warwick, he left an only
dau., Charlotte, who was born 30 Jan., and baptized at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 26 Feb.
1718-19. He died, at Holland House, 17 June. See his sister's burial 10 Mch. 1749-50.

6 Widow of the Rev. Dr. Francis-Durant de Bréval (sec his burial 29 Jan. 1707-8). In the
record of the baptism of one of her children, at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, Midx., she is called
"Dame Susanna Samoline," the latter being, doubtless, her maiden name. This entry is not in
the Abbey Register, but in the Funeral Book, and as the previous entry was on Saturday, 11 July,
the burial must have taken place on the 13th, 20th, or 27th.

created Baron of Tarragh, Earl of Bangor, and Duke of Leinster, all in the Irish peerage, and
succeeded to his father's English titles, under special limitations in the patents, on the death of
his younger brother Charles, 16 Oct. 1693. See the burials of his children, 22 June 1710 and
14 Oct. 1713.
1 The Funeral Book says "aged fifty years." Her will, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster,
spinster, dated 20 Aug. 1719, was proved 2 Sep. following, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter,
by her "good friend" Mrs. Mary Crespion, widow (see her burial 1 Jan. 1759). She bequeathed
£50 to Mr. William Trelawny, son of the late Brigadier Trelawny, then a Lieutenant in H.M.'s
service, and the residue of her estate equally to her two sisters, viz., Honour Penrose, of St. Ives,
co. Cornwall, widow, and Mary, wife of (blank) Thorne, of the city of Exeter, clothier, the latter
being her youngest sister.

4 This lady is always described in the peerages as "Isabella Van Aersen, dau. of Cornelius,
Lord of Sommelsdyck," but in her will, dated 20 Sep. 1712, she described herself as
<< Frances
Aersen Van Sommelsdyck, Countess Van Nassau, Lady Van Auverquerque, etc., widow of my
late deceased husband Henry, Earle Van Nassau, Lord Van Auverquerque, in his lifetime
Marshall-Generall of the United Netherland Provinces, etc., etc." In the codicil, dated 18 Oct.

in 1669, when about five years of age. He died, without issue, 9 Feb. aged fifty-seven. His will,
dated 20 Oct. 1699, with codicils 22 Dec. 1703 aud 3 June and 16 Oct. 1713. was proved 21 July
1720, by his relict Anne, Lady Kingsale (see her burial 5 May 1724). It is on record that he
asserted the hereditary privilege of the Lords Kingsale, and wore his hat in the presence of
K. William III. This privilege, if it be one, still exists, but is manifestly one to be more
honoured in its breach than its observance.

30 May 1714, his father's burial 21 June 1725, and his mother's 6 Feb. 1758.

• The Funeral Book gives his age as thirty-eight. He married Melior, dau. of John Clayton,
Geut. (see his burial 11 June 1713), and in 1706-7 was living in Charterhouse Yard. Several of
their children were baptized at St. Sepulchre's, London. His relict Melior administered to his

their son, Rev. Dr. James King.
7 Wife of Rear-Admiral Sir Thomas Hardy (see his burial 24 Aug. 1732). According to her
monument, she was dau. of Col. Henry Hooke, Lieutenant-Governor of Plymouth, and died

and was B.A. 6 May 1701 and M.A. 1 Apl. 1704. He became Prebendary and Archdeacon of
Rochester 4 Dec. 1704, and was installed Prebendary of Winchester 18 Nov. 1712, and of West-
minster 29 Sep. 1713. See his marriage 9 Apl. 1716, and the burial of his wife (who remarried)
29 Nov. 1734. He evidently left no issue.

she was described as Elizabeth Loton, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, spinster, aged about
twenty-five, and at her own disposal. According to her monument, she died 12 July, in her fifty-
seventh year. See the baptisms of her children, 1 May 1689, 12 Feb. 1690-1, and 13 May 1693,

3 Fifth son of Sir Francis Godolphin, K.B., by Dorothy, second dau. of Sir Henry Berkeley,
of Yarlington, co. Somerset, Kt., and younger brother of Sidney, Earl of Godolphin, Lord High
Treasurer, etc. He was M.P'. for Helston, and one of the Commissioners of the Customs.
According to his monument, he died 10 July, aged sixty-nine. See the burials, of his wife
16 Aug. 1726, his son 16 May 1694, his daughter 12 Dec. 1690, and his brothers, 3 Sep. 1710

+ According to her monument, she was wife of Thomas Moore, the Librarian of the Abbey,
and died 31 July, aged thirty-five. See her husband's burial 24 Dec. 1733.
5 According to the Funcral Book, he died in his sixty-first year. His will, as of St. Margaret's,
Westminster, Gent., was dated the 5th and proved the 26th of the same month, by Mr. William
Skelton and Mr. James Swift, with whom no relationship is mentioned. He left £50 to his
cousin Hannah Jennings, and £20 to his cousin John Joyce, butcher. To his brother Thomas
Manton he bequeathed £100. His annuities in the Exchequer and elsewhere he left to his wife
Elizabeth, for life or widowhood, with remainder to the children of his said brother Thomas. He
also left £20 to the poor of Oakham, co. Rutland. See his wife's burial 9 Aug. 1724.
6 Her monument states that she died 8 Aug., in her forty-second year. and describes her as
"the dear Wife, Fellow-travellour, and Constant Companion of Major Alexander Hardine above
twenty-seven years." The arms on the monument are, in base a dexter arm embowed and in
chief two mullets, impaling a buck trippant.
7 His monument describes him as of Caerleon, co. Monmouth, and says that he died 29 Aug.,
in his eighty-seventh year. The newspapers of the day state that he died at his lodgings in
Bow Street, Covent-Garden, leaving a large fortune. In his will, dated 7 Aug. 1717, with
several codicils, he stated that he was born at Carleon, and bequeathed £4000 for founding a
school there. He left considerable annuities to his niece Elizabeth Seys, widow of William
Seys, of Swansea, co. Glamorgan, Esq., and her son Evan Seys; but his entire real estate he
bequeathed to John Hanbury, of Pontypool, co. Monmouth, Esq., with remainder to his sons in
succession, the latter to assume the surname of Williams (see the burial of Sir Charles Hanbury-
Williams 10 Nov. 1759).
8 The Funeral Book says a child of mine, died 28 Sep., in his ninth year, and buried in the
same grave with my father Sims." This book was then kept by Ralph Sims (sce his burial
á Feb. 1720-1). He was born the 10th, and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 11 Feb.
1711-12.

2 The Funeral Book says "in her sixty-seventh year: she lies in the same grave with her
former husband Tufnell and two of her daughters." She was married at St. Margaret's, West-
minster, 19 Jan. 1672-3, as Dorothy Smythe," to John Tufnell, the Abbey mason (see his
burial 23 Feb. 1696-7), and her son Edward Tufnell (see his burial 11 Sep. 1719) called her in
his will his mother "Dorothy Noble." Her second husband probably survived her, as sbe
appears to have died intestate. One of her daughters, with whom she is said to have been
buried, was Mrs. Grace Kirpatrick (see her burial 14 Dec. 1707); but the burial of no other
known daughter by her husband Tufnell occurs in the Abbey Register, and the reference is pro-
bably to Mrs. Anne Rash (see her burial 9 Feb. 1715-16), who, according to her age, as given in
the Funeral Book, was too old to have been the daughter of Tufnell, while Mrs. Noble appears
to have been too young to have had a former husband when married as Dorothy Smythe.
Probably Mrs. Rash, who is not mentioned in any of the Tufnell wills, was a married daughter of
her second husband Noble by a former wife.
3 His coffin-plate, which accords with the text, adds that he was also colonel of a regiment
of the King of Portugal's Horse Guard, and died 4 Nov., aged forty-three. The newspapers of
the day call him " Don Hyacinth Borges Pereira á Castro,” and say that he had his first private
audience of the King 7 May 1719. He was buried privately, the funeral ceremonies having becn
performed, in the chapel in his house in Great Queen Street, according to the custom of the
Church of Rome.
4 The Funeral Book, then kept by Ralph Sims (see his burial 5 Feb. 1720-1), says a grand-
child of mine, aged two years and [blank] days." He was a son of Massey Gardner, of West-
minster, brazier, by Sarah, dau. of said Ralph Sims. See his sister's burial 24 Sep, 1715.
5 The Funeral Book says that he was servant to the Dean, and died in his twenty-first year.
Perhaps a brother of Thomas Grant, afterwards College butler (see his burial 15 Aug. 1748).
6 The Funeral Book says that she was servant to the Rev. Dr. Cannon (sce his burial 31 Mch.
1722), and died in her twenty-first year.
7 Second dau. of Charles, Lord Crichton, by the Hon. Sarah Dalrymple, third dau. of James,
first Viscount of Stair. She was sister of William, third Earl of Dumfries, and of Penclope,
Countess of Dumfries, who successively succeeded to the title, their father having died in the life-
time of their grandfather, William, second Earl of Dumfries. The Funeral Book gives her age
as thirty-three, and the newspapers of the day say that she died 29 Dec., at the Earl of Loudoun's
house in Privy Gardens, one adding that she was said to have "broke her heart by the loss of
her fortune in South Sea stock." She died unmarried.
8 The Funeral Book gives her name as Murret, and her age as seventy-five.

have proved of so much value in identifying the persons named in the Register. In his will,
dated 1 Feb. 1720-1, he called himself of St. Margaret's, Westminster, glazier, and left all his
possessions to his wife Dorothy, expressing the hope that she would be as good a mother as she
had been a wife. She proved the will, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, on the 23rd of the
same month (sec her burial 14 Jan. 1729-30). See the burials, of his father 10 Dec. 1717, of his

2 He died, according to the Funeral Book, 19 Feb., and his monument calls him Master of
Arts. One of his name graduated at the University of Edinburgh 27 May 1680, and is believed
to have been a brother of John Craig, the celebrated Scotch mathematician. He was, according
to the newspapers of the day, sometime tutor and chaplain to the Duke of Roxburgh. He was
installed Prebendary of Salisbury 24 Mch. 1697-8, and was Rector of Upwey, co. Dorset. He
was installed l'rebendary of Westminster 9 June 1720. His will, dated 14 Feb. 1720-1, was
proved 16 Mch. following, by his relict Mary (see her burial 7 Jan. 1745-6). He left all his
books to his brother John Craig, and made him his residuary legatec. He mentioned no other
relations, except his niece Agnes Craig, to whom he bequeathed £200.
3 James, only son of James Craggs, one of the Postmasters-General, who died 16 Mch.
following, by Elizabeth, dau. of Jacob Richards, of Westminster, Esq., who died 20 Jan. 1711-12,
both being buried at Charlton, co. Kent. He was born 9 Apl. 1686. His political career was unusually
rapid, as on the 16th of Mch. 1717-18, before he was thirty-two years of age, he was made a
Privy Councillor and one of the Principal Secretaries of State. He died, of the small-pox,
16 Feb., in his thirty-fifth year, leaving no legitimate issue. Letters of administration to
his estate were granted, 1 Apl. 1721, to his three sisters, Anne, wife of John Newsham, Esq.,
Elizabeth, wife of Edward Eliot, Esq., and Margaret, wife of Samuel Trefusis, Esq., who on
the same day administered to their father's estate.
4 Only son of Edmund Sheffield, fourth Baron Sheffield, of Butterwick, co. Lincoln, aud
second Earl of Mulgrave, by Lady Elizabeth Cranfield, dau. of Lionel, first Earl of Middlesex.
He was baptized at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 12 Apl. 1648, and succeeded to his
father's titles in 1658. He was created Marquis of Normanby 10 May 1694, Duke of Normanby
9 Mch. 1702-3, and, on the 24th of the same month, Duke of the county of Buckingham.
He died, according to his coffin-plate, 24 Feb., in his seventy-third year. (The London
Journal, of 18 Mch. 1720-1, gives a long account of his burial in the Abbey on the preceding
Saturday, the 11th, a discrepancy which is unaccountable, as the Funeral Book accords with the
Register in giving the date of burial 25 Mch.) In his will, dated 9 Aug, 1716, with codicils
23 Nov. and 30 Dec. 1717, and proved 28 Mch. 1721, he made ample provision for his illegitimate
children by Mrs. Lambart (see her burial 11 Jan. 1750-1). See the burials, of his second wife
11 Fcb. 1703-4, his third wife 8 Apl. 1743, and his only surviving sou 31 Jan. 1735-6.
The Funeral Book alone records, at the date of his burial, 25 Mch. 1721, the interment in the
Abbey of "three children of the Duke of Bucks which were removed out of St. Margaret's church.”
The following are the only three whose burials are recorded in the parish register of St. Margaret's,
Westminster, and were all by his third wife: Sophia, buried 17 Dec. 1706 (Lc Neve, in one of

Book says that one of the three children died 16 Oct. 1710, aged three weeks); and Henrietta-
Maria, buried 23 Dec. 1717, who was born 23 Feb., and baptized at St. Margaret's 5 Mch.
1713-14, and whom the Funeral Book identifies by giving the date of the death of one of the
three children as 20 Dec. 1717, and its age as three years and ten months. Another son, Robert,
second son by the Duke's third wife, was born and baptized 11 Dec. 1711, according to the
register of St. Margaret, but his burial is not recorded. Yet the Funeral Book seems to refer
to him as one of the three children removed from St. Margaret's. by giving the date of his death
as 1 Feb. 1714-15, and his age as three years and seven weeks.
1 Only son of Sir Thomas Longueville, of Bradwell Abbey, co. Bucks, Kt., by Anne, dau.
and coheir of Sir William Ashcombe, of Alvescott, co. Oxford, Kt. He was of the Inner Temple,
an eminent Counsellor at Law, and well remembered as the patron and literary executor of
Butler, the author of Hudibras. He died, according to his coffin-plate, 21 Mch., aged eighty-
two. Why, considering his position and his descent, he should have been described in modern
times as a conveyancer, who raised himself from humble circumstances." it is difficult to
conceive. See the burials, of his wife 21 Jan. 1715-16, and of his son 31 Aug. 1750, and the
marriage of his daughter 17 Aug. 1703.

John Machel, of Hills, co. Sussex, Esq., M.P. for Horsham. He succeeded his elder brother, as
fifth Viscount, 18 May 1714. He had been governor of Hull, and a colonel in the guards, and
had been recently appointed governor of Barbados. He was about sailing thither, when he
was taken ill with the small-pox, and died 10 Apl., in his thirty-fourth year. He married Lady
Anne Howard, third dau. of Charles, third Earl of Carlisle, but left no issue, and she remarried,
in 1737, Col. James Douglas. See his brother's marriage 9 Mch. 1725-6.

10 June 1703, Thomas Jett, of Gray's Inn, Esq., one of the Auditors of the Exchequer, who
survived her, and was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 6 July 1730. See the burial of
their daughter 8 Apl. 1758.
4 The Funeral Book says Miss Ann Horden," and that she died 17 May, in her seventh
year. Probably a grandchild of Rev. Dr. John Horden, Vicar of Isleworth, Midx., and Anne
his wife (see her burial 28 Aug. 1747), who, at his death in 1690, left four sons living, viz.,
Hildebrand, Rupert, Richard, and Thomas. See the burial (probably) of her sister 21 Apl.

served in the Courts of K. Chas. I., K. Chas. II., and K. James II., in which last reign he was

will, which he signed Theodoric Salomon De Balisy, dated 8 Dec. 1718, was proved 18 July
1721, by his sou Joseph Balisy. He stated that he owed nothing to any person, that his late
wife Catharine brought him no portion, that Mrs. Watkins had no other relation to him than as
half-sister to his said wife, that he had already provided for his dau. Elizabeth, wiſe of
Mr. Thomas Harper, and for his dau. Mary Balisy, and therefore gave all his personal estate to
his said son Joseph and his other dau. Katharine Balisy. See his wife's burial 22 Nov. 1715.
1 Percy Seymour, fourth son of Charles, sixth Duke of Somerset, by his first wife, Lady
Elizabeth Percy, only dau. of Jocelyn, cleventh Earl of Northumberland, and widow successively
of Henry Cavendish (Lord Ogle) and Thomas Thynne, Esq. According to the inscription on his
coffin-plate, as preserved in the Funeral Book, which also calls him fourth son, he was born at
Petworth, co. Sussex, 3 June 1696 (the peerages say 1686), and died 4 July 1721. He was M.P.
for Cockermouth, and died unmarried. In one of Le Neve's MSS. in the College of Arms it is
said that his remains were removed, 14 Dec. 1722, to be buried in Salisbury Cathedral with his
mother, who died 23 Nov. in that year. Sce the burials of his brothers, 8 Jan. 1710-11 and
24 Feb. 1749-50.
2 The Funeral Book says that she died the same day, in her fifty-sccond year, and her
monument, erected by her cousin, Mrs. Arabella Thompson, says in her fifty-third year, and that
she was one of the daughters of Sir Edward Barnard, of Beverley, co. York, Kt. Her father
was knighted 6 Dec. 1669, then of North Dalton, in that county. Her will, dated 7 Sep. 1721,
mentions numerous relations, and was proved 31 Oct. following, by her sisters, Mary, wife of
Charles Hosier, of Wicken, co. Northampton, and Elizabeth Avery, of Oake, co. Somerset.
3 According to the Funeral Book, he died 12 Sep., in his fifty-seventh year. "Mr. Hester"
is mentioned in the Chapter Book, 16 Feb. 1712-13, as the College bricklayer. His relict Abigail
administered to his estate 23 Sep. 1721. See his son's burial 7 Dec. 1715.
4 The celebrated poet and statesman. He was son of George Prior, and, although there has
always been, and still is, some difficulty in determining the place of his birth, the weight of
evidence appears to be in favour of Wimborne, co. Dorset. He is said to have been born 2 July
1664, and, losing his father when very young, was sent to Westminster School by his uncle
Samuel Prior, a publican near Charing Cross. His subsequent career, under distinguished
patronage, will be found detailed by his various biographers. He died at Wimpole, co. Cambridge,
a seat of the Earl of Oxford's, 18 Sep., according to his monument, in his fifty-seventh year, but,
if the date of his birth has been correctly given, really in his fifty-eighth. His will, dated
9 Aug. 1721, was proved 19 Sep. following (the day after his death), by his friend and secretary
Adrian Drift (sce his burial 5 Mch. 1736-7), but it mentions no relations except his "dear cousin
Katharine Harrison," to whom he left £100 for mourning.
5 Relict of Rev. Dr. William Owtram (see his burial 25 Aug. 1679). She died 4 Oct.,
according to both the Funeral Book and her monument. Her will, dated 17 July 1721, was
proved 16 Oct. following, by her niece Isabella Smithson, residuary legatee. Her other bequests
were to her niece Ann Smithson, and her cousins Goodwin, Mary Smithson, Jane Johnson, and
Ellen Hardy.
6 The Funeral Book says that she died 8 Nov., aged thirty, and was buried in her brother's
grave (see his burial 8 Apl. 1714, and note thereto). The newspapers of the day say that she was
a native of the West Indies, and that she died suddenly, in her chariot, near Flect Bridge. Her
will, dated 6 Apl. 1721, was proved 24 Nov. following. Her bequests were to her aunt Anne,
widow of her late uncle Edward Richbell, and her son Edward and dau. Frances, her uncle
Richard Miles, merchant in Madeira, and Frances his wife, her cousin Samuel Strode and Anne
his wife, and the children of her uncle John Wright,

her infancy, and was at her death one of the Ladies of her Bedchamber, and Governess to her

4 The Funeral Book says that he died 24 Jan., aged fifty-four. He is mentioned in the
Chapter Book, as surveyor, 30 Feb. 1710-11. The Whitehall Evening Post, of 28 Jan. 1724-5,
says: "Last Sunday morning died William Dickinson, Esq., a celebrated Architect, and Surveyor
of Westminster Abbey. He was, in the reign of Q. Anne, Clerk of the Works." His will, as of
St. Margaret's, Westminster, Gent., dated 9 June 1724, was proved 3 Mch. 1724-5, in the Court of

celebrated John and Charles Wesley, and eldest son of Rev. Samuel Wesley, Rector of Epworth,
co. Lincoln. He was at this time an usher of Westminster School, which post he occupied for

¹ The Funeral Book says that she died 1 Apl., aged eighty-four. The title "Dame" in the
text was misapplied to her, and probably only used in deference to her venerable age. She was
the relict of Col. Thomas Panton (see his burial 26 Oct. 1685, and note thereto). Her will, dated
1 June 1722, was proved 8 Apl. 1725, by her son, Brigadier-General Thomas Panton.

University, A.B. as of Clare College 1699, A.M. as of Corpus Christi College 1703, and S.T.P., by
royal command, 1717. He is said to have been chaplain to Archbishop Tenison, and one of the
Chaplains in ordinary to the King. He was installed treasurer of Wells 13 Nov. 1708, and Pre-
bendary of Westminster 26 Nov. 1724, and was Rector of St. Paul's, Shadwell, co. Midx., at his
death. He married, at St. Martin Outwich, London. 29 July 1714, Susanna Powell, of St. Mary
Woolnoth, London. His will, dated 31 Mch. 1721, was proved 4 May 1725, by his relict, who is
alone named in it. She died 26 Aug. 1764, in her seventy-eighth year, and was buried in the

* In her will, dated 3 Dec. 1723, with a codicil
Dec. 1723, with a codicil Apl. 1725, she described herself as
"Sophia-Charlotta, Countess of Darlington and Leinster, Baroness of Brentford, born Countess
of the Empire and Lady von Platen and Hallermund, widow, dowager of the late John-Adolph,
Baron von Kielmansegge, Master of Horse and Lord Chamberlain to his Majesty of Great
Britain and Electoral Highness of Brunswick-Luneburg." She also described her deceased
father as
"Frantz-Ernest, Imperial Count von Platen and Hallermund, late Chief Privy Coun-
cillor to his Electoral Highness of Brunswick-Luneburgh, and hereditary Postmaster-General of
the Dominion of Brunswick-Luneburgh, the Bishoprick of Osnabrugg, and of the Duchies of
Bremen and Verden." The will was proved 10 Mch. 1725-6, by her eldest son George-Lewis,
Count von Kielmansegge. Her husband was buried at St. James, Westminster, 17 Nov. 1717,
and she was created by K. Geo. I., 6 Apl. 1722, Baroness of Brentford, co Midx., and Countess of
Darlington, co. Durham, for life. She died 20 Apl. Her eldest dau., Sophia-Charlotte-Mary,
whose paternity was imputed to K. George I., married Emanuel Scrope, second Viscount Howe.
She made her, with her younger sister Caroline, her eldest brother above named, and her younger
brothers, Charles-August and Ernest-August, her general heirs.
The Funeral Book says that she died 28 Apl. See the burial (probably) of her sister
15 Feb. 1722-3, the marriage of her parents 6 Sep. 1716, and the burials, of her mother 8 Jan.

grave of his grandfather Sims (see his burial 5 Feb. 1720-1). He was son of Henry Sims and
Anne his wife, and was born 29 Mch., and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 15 Apl. 1725.

ampton, Esq., and Elizabeth his wife (see her burial 3 July 1706). He was Clerk-assistant of the
House of Lords, and died, according to his coffin-plate, 22 May, in his forty-third year. He
appears to have died unmarried, and by his will, dated 24 Aug. 1722, left his estate to his two
sisters, Frances and Elizabeth, who proved the will 1 June 1725, both being then unmarried (see
the burial of one of them, as Frances Merest, 17 Nov. 1727).

¹ The Funeral Book says that he died 6 June, aged thirty-one. He was, according to the
College books, son of John Jewell, of Battersea, co. Surrey, but his father, in his will dated
24 Nov. 1724, called himself of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., gardener. He was admitted into
St. Peter's College, Westminster, in 1711, and elected to Cambridge in 1715, where A.B. in 1718,
and A.M. 1722. His will, dated 31 May 1725, was proved 8 July following, by his relict Lucia,
who remarried the celebrated Latin poet, Vincent Bourne (see her burial 16 Mch. 1767). He
bequeathed to his wife the freehold estate in Lewisham, Kent, left him by his father, and his
moiety of two houses in Battersea devised to him and his brother John by the will of their late
grandfather George Iver. In his father's will he was called eldest son. He appears to have left

The Funeral Book says that he died 13 Dec., in his sixty-third year, and his monument
described him as President of H.M.'s Council of the Island of St. Christopher. His will, as late
of St. Christopher's, but then of London, Esq., dated 4 Dec. 1725, was proved on the 17th of the
same month. He directed that a tombstone should be placed over his wife's grave, but without
stating where she was buried. He left sundry negroes, etc., to Mrs. Bridget Davis and her son,
his nephew, Joseph Davis; his daughter-in-law Anne, wife of Joseph Estridge, Esq., and Henry
Sharp, her son by her former husband Lieut. William Sharp; his niece Mary Sherman, and the

the age of twenty-one.
6 The Funeral Book says that she was buried in her mother's grave (see her burial 18 Mch.
1711-12). Her will, as of St. Mary-le-Strand, Midx., dated 27 Nov. 1718, was proved 29 July
1726, by her sister Jane Ireland (see her burial 25 Sep. 1745), to whom, with her other sister, Anne,
wife of Isaac Manley, post-master of Dublin, she left all money due to her by pension or otherwise.

William Steuart (scc his burial 10 June 1726). She died, according to her coffin-plate, 26 Dec.
1725, aged sixty-three. She appears to have been insane for some time previous to her death,

manner that any funeral had been performed for many years."

The Funeral Book says that he died 31 Jan., aged eighty-eight. He had been porter of
the Little Cloisters for many years, and was buried in the place specially reserved for persons of
the lowest rank. His will, dated 13 Sep. 1721, was proved 14 Feb. 1725-6, in the Court of the
Dean and Chapter, by his friend William Tipstall, labourer. What he possessed he left to his
niece Ann Higgons, then about five years old. See his wife's burial 25 Aug. 1716.
2 The Funeral Book says that he died 22 Feb. His humble position is sufficiently indicated
by the place of his burial.
3 Lady Charlotte Lanc, eldest dau. of George, first Viscount Lanesborough, in the peerage
of Ireland, and second English Baronet of that name, by his first wife, Dorcas, second dau. of
Sir Anthony Brabazon, of co. Louth, Ireland, Kt. She married, at St. Martin in the Fields,
Midx., 8 June 1676, Henry Beaufoy, Esq., who was described in the marriage allegation (Vic.
Gen.) as of St. Bride's, London, a bachelor, aged nineteen, and as having the consent of his
grandmother Dame Mary Walker, his parents being dead. Her age was also given as nineteen.
According to Le Neve's Knights, he was knighted at Whitehall, either the 6th or the 12th of June
1676, two days before or four days after his marriage. The latter is probably correct, as he was
called "Esquire" both in the marriage license and record of the marriage. He was of Guy's
Cliff, co. Warwick, and his will, dated 13 June 1678, was proved by her 8 Jan. 1678-9. She died,
according to the Funeral Book, 19 Feb., aged seventy. Her nephew and next of kin, George
Fox, Esq., administered to her estate 8 Mch. 1725-6. Le Neve says that she was born 28 Aug.
1658, which does not quite agree with her age as stated in the marriage allegation or the Funeral
Book. See the burial of her only child 17 July 1705.
4 Relict of the Right Rev. Thomas Sprat, Bishop of Rochester and Dean of Westminster
(see his burial 25 May 1713). She died, according to the Funeral Book, 26 Feb., aged seventy-
eight. In the affidavit of her burial in woollen she was called of Bromley, co. Kent, where she
probably died. Her monument states that she was descended from the ancient family of
Wolseley, of Staffordshire. Dr. Gorges (sce his burial 14 Dec. 1667) in his will left £100 to
"Mrs. Hellena Wolesly, whom I used to call wife." She was married, as appears by a state-
ment in her husband's will, in 1676, and evidently on the 30th of October, as she dated a codicil
to her will on that day, adding, "it being the happy day of my life so long as my good husband
and son lived." She appears to have been a sister of Anne, first wife of Rev. Dr. Thomas Knipe
(see her burial 26 Aug. 1685). Her will, signed 10 Oct. 1724, with several codicils, the last being
7 Jan. 1725-6, was proved 13 May 1726, by her own great-nephew Richard Knipe and her
husband's great-nephew Rev. Thomas Glover. Among other legacies she bequeathed the wedding
ring of her grandmother Lady Wolseley, her coat-of-arms, and the pedigree of her grandfather
Sir John Zouch.
5 The Funeral Book says that he died 9 Mch., aged fifty-one. He was appointed scavenger,
according to the Chapter Book, 5 Fcb. in the same year. Letters of administration to his estate
were granted 1 Apl. 1726, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, to his relict Mary, and his eldest
son Charles (see his burial 28 May 1734). His name is given in the record as Chittam. According
to an entry in the Chapter Book, 18 Dec. 1733, his widow Mary was to be placed in Emery Hill's
almshouses.-Charles Chitham, of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., goldsmith, bachelor, aged
about twenty-three, and Margaret Barrett, of the same parish, spinster, about eighteen, had a
license to marry, from the Vicar-General's office, 25 Apl. 1668. They were probably his parents,
as the date is appropriate, and he named his eldest son Charles.
* The Funeral Book says that she died 10 Mch., aged sixty-six, and her monument adds that
she had been body-laundress to Q. Anne during the whole of her reign. Mrs. Ellen Bust (see her
burial 28 Apl. 1697) in her will, dated 2 May 1693, called her her niece, and she was then a
widow. Her will, dated 1 Aug. 1722, was proved 18 Mch. 1725-6, by Elizabeth, wife of Bernard

2 The Funeral Book says that he died 26 Apl., aged twenty-one. The Whitehall Evening
Post, of 28 Apl. 1726, says: A person of a rare genius for music. Having been educated under
Dr. Croft, he was his Deputy and Organist at Whitehall Chapel.”
3 Relict of Henry Spoore, Clerk of the Works to the Abbey (see his burial 29 June 1703).
The Funeral Book says that he died 8 May, aged ninety-four. Her will, dated 14 Apl. 1726, was
proved 19 May following, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by her dau. Dorothy Sims (see
her burial 14 Jan. 1729-30).
The Funeral Book says that he died 12 May, aged seventy-six. He had the reversion of
an almsman's place, according to the Chapter Book, as early as 28 Feb. 1687-8. See the burial
(probably) of his wife 23 July 1725.
5 Illegitimate son of K. Charles II., by Ellen Gwynne, and his eldest son by her. He was
born in Lincoln's Inn Fields 8 May 1670, and was created, 27 Dec. 1676, Baron of Headington,
and Earl of Burford, both in co. Oxford, and, 10 Jan. 1683-4, Duke of St. Albans. He married,
13 Apl. 1694, Lady Diana de Vere, eldest dau. and eventually sole heir of Aubrey, twentieth and
last Earl of Oxford, who survived him, and died 15 Jan. 1741-2. The Funeral Book says that he
died 10 May, aged fifty-five, but the newspapers of the day say that he died at Bath on the 9th,
and some of the peerages say on the 11th. It is remarkable that his will, dated 19 July 1694,
shortly after his marriage, in which he left all his estate to his wife, was never altered or added
to, and it was proved by her 25 Aug. 1726. It is possible, however, that it had been forgotten or
mislaid, as she had taken out letters of administration the preceding 2nd of June. See the
burials of his sons, 2 Mch. 1732-3 and 3 Aug. 1751.
The Funeral Book says " Mrs. Lucy Renton (late Hobbs)," and that she died 28 May, aged
fifty, and was buried in her husband's grave (see his burial 22 Jan. 1723-4, and note thereto). In
her will, dated 20 May 1726, she called herself "Lucy Hobbs" only, and "widow," and left all
her estate to her son Henry Hobbs, who proved the will, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter,
2 June following. It is difficult to comprehend her husband's marital relations, as was said in
the note to his burial, for in his will he declared that Henry Hobbs was his son by one Margaret
Melsom, who claimed to be his wife, and cut him off with a shilling. He also described the
person named in the text as "my only dear wife, late Lucy Owen, now Lucy Hobbs," stating that
the greater part of his worldly substance came to him by his marriage with her, and again
mentioned her as my dearly beloved wife Lucy Hobbs, with whom I now live, before called
Lucy Owen." She proved the will as "Lucy Hobbs alias Owen, widow, relict and executrix" of
the testator. If she remarried Renton after the death of Hobbs, she was herself no longer
Hobbs, but Renton; yet the Court of the Dean and Chapter recognized her, not as Lncy Renton,
but as "Lucy Hobbs, widow."
7 The Funeral Book says that she died 3 June, in her eighteenth year, and was buried in the
grave of Mrs. Spoore (her grandmother, see her burial 12 May 1726). She was a dau, of Ralph

1 The inscription on his coffin-plate, exposed in 1867, describes him as follows: "General of
the Foot and Commander-in-chief of all her late Majesty's Forces in Ireland, Colonel of a
Regiment of Foot, and one of her said Majesty's Privy Council in the aforesaid kingdom: died
June the 4th 1726, aged seventy-four." Le Neve says, in one of his MSS., but without giving
any authority, that he was descended from the Steuarts, Earls of Caithness. He married, first,
Catharine, Viscountess Grandison (see her burial 12 Jan. 1725-6, and note thereto). A fortnight
after her burial, viz. 27 Jan. 1725-6, he obtained a license from the Faculty Office to marry
Elizabeth, second dau. of Sir Rowland Alston, sccoud Bart. of Odell, co. Beds, a lady very much
his junior, and the marriage took place shortly after. If any excuse for this hasty action were
nccessary, it is probably to be found in the fact that his former wife, Viscountess Grandison, had
been insane for some time before her death. A few days later, viz., 15 Feb. 1725-6, the news-
papers of the day reported that he had been dangerously ill of an apoplexy, and he lived only
about four months after his second marriage. His widow remarried Henry Rowe, of Epsom,
co. Surrey, Esq., and died 21 May 1756. He left no issue by either wife. His will, dated 31 May
1726, was proved 16 Nov. following, by his relict Elizabeth aud his nephew James Steuart.
He left considerable legacies to his brother John Steuart, Esq., his sister Elizabeth Dobson, widlow,
his nephews Colonel John Steuart and Charles Steuart, Esq., and his nicces, Elizabeth, wife of
Rev. Benjamin Gregory, Mrs. Jane Nugent, Eleanor Wilder, widow, Mary, wife of (blank) Rylcy,
and Rosc, wife of (blank). His nephew Brigadier-General William Steuart, who had been
ungrateful, etc., he cut off with a shilling. He bequeathed £5000, Irish money, to erect and
cndow a school for twenty poor boys in the parish of St. George, Hanover Square, where he lived.

Bucks (with remainder to his brother Charles), Viscount Caversham, and Earl Cadogan. He
married Margaretta-Cecilia, dau. of William Munter, Counsellor of the Court of Holland, but left
issue only two daughters. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 17 July, in his fifty-seventh
year, and all his titles became extinct, except the second barony.

7 According to the newspapers of the day, he had been for many years secretary to the Duke
of Ormond, and some time Judge Advocate to the army in Flanders. The Evening Post, of
30 Mch. 1727, states that he died at his house in Duke Street, Westminster, on the 25th, and adds :
"He was an upright, honest man." His will, in which he described himself as M.A., Student of
Christ Church, Oxford," dated 16 Dec. 1725, was proved 27 Mch. 1727, by his brother Fleetwood
Watkins, residuary legatec. He left considerable legacies to the children of his deceased brother
Charles Watkins, his sister Elizabeth Haywood, and his best beloved sister, the wife of Sir
Matthew Decker. An endorsement on the will states that he was a son of Rev. Richard Watkins,
some time Vicar of Ambrosden, co. Oxford, and afterwards Rector of Whichford, co. Warwick,
and of Bourton-on-the-Hill, co. Gloucester. He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church,
16 Dec. 1684, aged eighteen, as son of Rev. Richard Watkins, of Which ford, and was, therefore,
at his death, about sixty-one years of age. He appears to have died unmarried.

of Rev. Michael Evans, Prebendary of Westminster (see his burial 25 Aug. 1732), and son of
Maurice Evans, of Westminster, Gent. His will, as of Chelsca, Midx., dated 25 Aug. 1726, was

aged fifty-seven. Her will, dated 27 Mch. 1727, was proved 20 Apl. following, by her sister
Elizabeth Crouch, widow, and her nephew Thomas Crouch, to whom she bequeathed all her

removed from the offices of "Solicitor of H.M.'s Duties on Hides, Skins, etc., as also for the
Affairs of Taxes and Duties on Houses, and Clerk of the Securities." The Funeral Book says
that he died 14 June, aged fifty-four, which must be an error, as his parents were not married
until after 7 Feb. 1680-1, and his mother died in her twenty-third year. It should doubtless be
forty-four, or forty-five. His will, as of Clement's Inn, Midx., Gent., dated 13 May 1727, was
proved 21 June following, by his relict Susanna, whom he described as a sister of John
Walker.

1704 he was sworn joint organist of the Chapel Royal, and 5 Nov. 1707 full organist. In Oct.
1708 he succeeded Dr. Blow as master of the children and composer to the Chapel Royal, and

According to the Funeral Book and his monument, he died 14 Aug., aged fifty. In the record of

1 The celebrated dramatist. As is now commonly stated, he was baptized at Bardsey, co.
York, 10 Feb. 1669-70, as son of Mr. William Congreve, of Bardsey Grange; but this date does not
accord with his age as stated either in the Funeral Book or on his monument, the former being
fifty-seven (and copied from his coffin-plate), and the latter fifty-six. If either is correct, he
must have been born in 1671 or 1672, while, if he was the child baptized at Bardsey, he would
have been probably quite fifty-nine at his death, and certainly within a few days of that age. These
rather serious discrepancies, covering a period of three years, fairly suggest the doubt whether
the Bardsey baptism does not refer to an elder brother of the same name, who may have died in
infancy. The error of Leigh Hunt, in the Dramatic Works of Wycherley, Congreve, etc., 1840,
p. 22, and adopted by more modern writers, in making his mother the daughter of Sir Thomas
Fitzherbert, and grand-daughter of Sir Anthony Fitzherbert, the celebrated Judge, also needs cor-
rection. Sir Anthony Fitzherbert died in 1538, and it is impossible to conceive that a grand-
child of his was capable of bearing children one hundred and thirty-two years later. Congreve's
personal history is too well known to require comment or recapitulation here. He died 19 Jan.,
after protracted suffering, leaving small legacies to his own relations, and the residue of his
cstate, which was considerable, to the Duchess of Marlborough.
2 Son of Nicholas Lowe (see his burial 30 Sep. 1706), by Millicent his wife (sce her burial
16 Sep. 1715). He had a patent from the Dean and Chapter, as Coroner and Clerk of the Market
of Westminster, 7 Oct. 1706, which offices he resigned 13 Jan. 1717-18. He signed the Chapter
Book, as deputy Chapter Clerk, 16 June 1713, and appears afterwards to have been Registrar and
Chapter Clerk. He was appointed Auditor 21 Nov. 1728, and held a patent as Sacrist at his
death. He appears to have been also secretary to the Bishop of Rochester, and J.P. for West-
minster. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 3 Feb., aged fifty-one. The newspapers of
the day say that he was found drowned in his cistern; one stating that he died in a fit of
apoplexy, another that while regulating a cock he fell in and was accidentally drowned before
assistance arrived, and a third intimating that the coroner's jury rendered a verdict of suicide
during temporary insanity. His relict Mary administered to his estate in the Court of the Dean
and Chapter, 24 Feb. 1728-9 (see her burial 20 Feb. 1732-3). See the baptisms of his children,
21 Jan. 1716-17, 3 Aug. 1718, 14 Oct. 1724, and 3 June 1727, and the burials of his sons, 17 May
1720 and 9 Oct. 1739, and of his daughter, 8 Feb. 1728-9.

7 Feb., in her second year. See her baptism 3 June 1727, and her mother's burial 20 Feb.

The Funeral Book states that she died 13 Feb., aged ninety-one. Her will, as of Charles
Street, St. Margaret's, Westminster, spinster, dated 26 Sep. 1726, was proved 3 Apl. 1729, in the
Court of the Dean and Chapter, by her "loving friend" John Aubrey, Esq., of the Exchequer
(sec his burial 11 Nov. 1758). She stated that her true and lawful parents were Mr. John
Arthington and Mrs. Margaret his wife, who educated her in the principles and practice of the
Church of Rome; but that, having been converted to the Church of England, and fearing the
efforts of her kindred and others to restore her to her former crrors, she had, in order to conceal
herself, assumed and long been known by the name of Margaret Rookwood, and that she now
made her will under her real name. She directed to be buried in the South aisle of the Abbey,
between the West door and the door of the choir, and left £80 for her funeral expenses. To Mrs.
Joanna Arthington, living in or near Fenchurch Street, London, she bequeathed her coat-of-
arms, and forty shillings for a ring. To Mrs. Unton English, living near St. Dunstan's in Fleet
Street, and her sister Dorothy English, she left £25 each. Her apparel she gave to Susanna
London and Susanna wife of Robert Young. Except a few small bequests to her attendants,
tradesmen, etc., she bequeathed the residue of her estate to her exccutor.

by her sons Rev. Dr. Henry Felton and John Felton, to whom she bequeathed all her estatc,
except £200, which her grand-daughter Elizabeth Felton was to have when twenty-one.

4 The Funcral Book says that she died 8 May, aged seventy-two. Her will, as of St. James,
Westminster, widow, dated 17 Mch. 1728-9, with a codicil 20 Apl. 1729, was proved 14 May

no relations, but left legacies varying from £5 to £50 to several friends. She bequeathed £300
to the parish of Llanerfyl, co. Montgomery, for educating poor children, and the school founded
therewith is still in operation. See the burial of her dau. 26 June 1726. a marriage 6 Nov. 1679,

appointed Receiver pro tem. 7 May 1722, and on 27 Apl. 1723 had a patent as Receiver and
Solicitor, and Steward of the Courts of the Dean and Chapter. He married, at the Chapel Royal,
Whitehall, 9 Feb. 1726-7, Elizabeth Frecker, called in his will a daughter of Mark Frecker, Esq.
He was called "cousin," evidently in the sense of nephew, in the will of Charles Battely. Esq..
his predecessor in the office of Receiver (see the note to the baptism of Elizabeth Needham
31 Mch. 1668), and was clearly of the family of his name in co. Suffolk. His will, dated 3 June
1729, was proved 19 Aug. following, by his relict Elizabeth, the sole legatee. Among other
bequests to her was the reversion of certain lands in Suffolk on the death of the widow of his
uncle Samuel Battely.
6 The Funeral Book says that she died 20 June. aged eighty-five, and was buried under a
black marble stone of her husband's." She was third dau. of John Fox, Esq. (see his burial

year and nine months, and was buried in the grave of his sister (see her burial 26 Dec. 1728).
He was born 10 May, and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 21 June 1728, but is called in
the register "Dillingham" only, as he was in the affidavit of his burial in woollen. There can,
however, be no doubt as to his identity.
3 Relict of Thomas Meredith (see his burial 25 July 1710). The Funeral Book says that she
died 4 Apl., aged sixty.
4 Dau. of Thomas Cullum, of London (nephew of Sir Thomas Cullum, first Bart. of Hawsted,
co. Suffolk), by his wife Mary Wiseman. She married, first, Sir Thomas Bromsall, of Biggleswade,
Beds, who was knighted 24 Oct. 1704, to whose estate she administered 22 Feb. 1704-5, and,
secondly, Rev. Dr. John Herbert, Prebendary of Westminster (see his burial 30 Oct. 1729). She
died 2 Apl., and Elizabeth Paschall, spinster, described as her cousin and next of kin, administered
to her estate 12 May following.
5 The Funeral Book says that she died 30 Apl., aged forty-five.
6 Eldest dau. of Sir Winston Churchill, Kt., by Elizabeth, dau. of Sir John Drake, of Ashe,
oo. Devon, Kt. According to the parish register of Axminster, she was baptized at Ashe Hall
28 Feb. 1648-9, but in the peerages she is said to have been born 16 Mch. 1647-8. After having
been one of the mistresses of K. James II., when Duke of York, by whom she had four children,
she married Colonel Charles Godfrey, Master of the Jewel Office, whose will, dated 21 May 1714,
she proved 9 Mch. following. She died, according to the Funcral Book, 4 May, aged eighty-two,
and was buried in the grave of her brother George Churchill, Esq. (see his burial 12 May 1710,
and that of her other brother, the great Duke of Marlborough, 9 Aug. 1722). See the marriage
of her dau. 23 Apl. 1700.
7 The Funeral Book says that she died 15 May, aged five months. See, evidently, her sister's
burial 4 Apl. 1729.
8 Dau. of the celebrated John Blow, Dr. of Music (sce his burial 8 Oct. 1708), by Elizabeth
his wife (sce her burial 31 Oct. 1683). The Funeral Book says that she died 19 May, and was
buried on the left hand of her sister Elizabeth Edgeworth (see her burial 9 Scp. 1719). She died
unmarried, and her will, dated 8 July 1728, was proved 1 June 1730, by her sister Mary (see her
burial 22 Nov. 1738).
9 The Funeral Book says that he died 26 May, aged two years and five months. See the
burials, probably, of his father 12 Apl. 1731, and his brother 19 June 1773.

Fac.). She died, according to the Funeral Book, 30 May, aged fifty-three. They were ancestors
of the present Duke of Buccleuch. See the burials of her children 25 Mch. 1700, 18 Oct. 1714,
and 27 Feb. 1718-19.
2 The Funeral Book says that she died 31 May, aged forty-four, and was buried in the same
grave with her father, Mr. Bentham. She was evidently a dau. of Rev. Samuel Bentham (see
his burial 5 Mch. 1729-30), by Ruth his wife (see her burial 22 Jan. 1728-9.) She was baptized
at Holy Trinity, Ely, 21 Feb. 1686-7, as Ann-Elizabeth. It is probable that her husband was
Jonathan Smith, Esq., who was sworn Serjeant of the Vestry of the Chapel Royal 11 May 1715,
and Clerk of the Cheque 4 Apl. 1720.
3 He became one of the Gentlemen of the Chapel Royal 2 Mch. 1699-1700, and was admitted
to the place of " Epistler," and is described in the newspapers of the day as also one of the
singing-men of the Abbey and of St. Paul's. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 18 Aug.,
in his seventy-first year. His will, as of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., Gent., dated 18 June
1724, was proved 28 Aug. 1730, by his relict Mary (see her burial 30 June 1738). He left con-
siderable legacies to his son Thomas and dau. Mary (see her burial 29 Aug. 1741). See also a
burial 20 Sep. 1697, perhaps of his son, or brother.
4 The Funeral Book says that he died 11 Sep., aged eighty-four. His will, as of St.
Margaret's, Westminster, Esq., dated 5 June 1728, was proved 17 Oct. 1730, by his nephew
Mr. Edward Chaloner, and his friend Mr. Jabez Collier, of Symond's Inn, to the former of
whom he left four-fifths, and to the latter one-fifth of the residue of his estate. He mentioned
no other relations, but the friends to whom he bequeathed rings, etc., seem to indicate that he
had held some official position in the House of Lords.
5 The Funeral Book says that she died 14 Sep., aged nine months. She was a child of
Henry Sims and Anne his wife, and grandchild of Ralph Sims, Clerk of the Works (see his
burial 5 Feb. 1720-1). She was born 27 Dec. 1729, and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster,
20 Jan. following. See her brother's burial 21 May 1725.
6 James Johnstone, eldest son of William, third Earl and first Marquis of Annandale, by
Sophia, dau. and sole heir of John Fairholm, of Craigie Hall, co. Stirling (see her burial 18 Dec.
1716). He succeeded as second Marquis in 1721, and died at Naples, unmarried. The Funeral
Book gives his age as forty-two. Sec his brother's burial 31 Dec. 1721.
7 Lady Henrietta de Vere, youngest dau. of Aubrey, twentieth and last Earl of Oxford (see
his burial 22 Mch. 1702-3), by Diana, dau. of George Kirke (see her burial 16 Apl. 1719). She
died, unmarried, 22 Sep., according to the Funeral Book, aged forty-eight.
8 Fourth dau. of Thomas Donkley, Closet-Keeper to K. Charles II. (see his burial 8 Feb.
1688-9), by Elizabeth his wife (sec their marriage 18 May 1665). She married, about 24 Jan.
1688-9 (Mar. Lic. Fac.), Gilbert Thornburgh, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, then a bachelor,
aged about twenty-four, to whose estate she administered 29 Jan. 1705-6. She died, according to
the Funeral Book, 9 Oct., aged sixty, and was buried under her father's grave-stone. Her will,
as of St. Clement Danes, Midx., dated 18 Sep. 1730, was proved 10 Oct. following, by Mrs.
Mary Lee, of Somerset House, whom she made her residuary legatee. Although the name is
Thornburgh" throughout the will, she signed it "Margaret Thornborough,"

¹ The celebrated actress. She died 23 Oct., aged, according to the Funeral Book, forty-seven.
Her origin has never been definitely settled. It is said that she was born in Pall Mall, and that
her grandfather was a vintner, her father an officer in the Guards, and her mother of a respectable
family. Her will, as of St. George's, Hanover Square, Midx., dated 27 June, with a codicil 15 Sep.
1730, was proved 2 Nov. following, by the Hon. John Hervey, commonly called Lord Hervey,
John Hedges, of Finchley, co. Midx., Esq., and Brigadier-General Charles Churchill. She bc-
queathed to her mother, Mrs. Anne Oldfield, an annuity of £60 for life, and one of £30, after her
mother's death, to her aunt, Janc Gourlaw (or Courlaw, the orthography varying in the will).
The rest of her estate she left to her illegitimate sons, Arthur Manwaring and Charles Churchill,
with remainder to said Brigadier-General Churchill, father of the latter. Although, for reasons
that were doubtless potential, her remains were allowed honourable burial within the walls of
the Abbey, the records of the Chapter shew that the reigning Dean and his successor, Bishops
Bradford and Wilcocks, resolutely drew the line there, and peremptorily refused permission to
her paramour, General Churchill, to erect a monument to her memory.
2 Eldest illegitimate son of K. Chas. II. (see his burial 14 Feb. 1684-5), by Barbara Villiers,
dau. and heir of William, second Viscount Grandison, who was created, 3 Aug. 1670, Baroness
Nonsuch, Countess of Southampton, and Duchess of Cleveland, and was buried at Chiswick,
Midx., 13 Oct. 1709, having married, first, at St. Gregory's, London, 14 Apl. 1659, Roger Palmer,
who was created, 11 Dec. 1661, Baron of Limerick and Earl of Castlemaine, in the peerage of
Ireland, and died 21 July 1705, and secondly, 25 Nov. in the same year, four months after her
first husband's death, Major-General Robert Feilding, known as "Beau Feilding," from whom
she was divorced, 23 May 1707, it being proved that his former wife was living. This son was
baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 18 June 1662, as "Charles Palmer, Lª Limbricke, s. to
ye right honorbie Roger, Earle of Castle-Maine, by Barbara." He was created, 10 Sep. 1675,
Baron of Newbury, co. Berks, Earl of Chichester, and Duke of Southampton, and succeeded to
his mother's titles at her death. According to his coffin-plate, exposed in 1868, he died 9 Sep.,
in his sixty-ninth year. See the burials, of his first wife 16 Nov. 1680, his second wife 28 Feb.
1745-6, his sons 29 Nov. 1708 and 29 Sep. 1723, and his brother 11 July 1716.
3 The Funeral Book says that he died 5 Nov., aged eighty-cight. His will, dated 7 Mch.
1729-30, was proved 5 Dec. 1730, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by his grand-daughter,
Anna-Maria Smith, sole legatee. He described himself as "belonging to the Abbey of
Westminster."
Dau. of Rev. Francis-Durant de Bréval (see his burial 29 Jan. 1707-8), by Susanna Samoline,
his wife (see her burial July 1719). She was baptized at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, Midx., 3 May
1670, and married, about 17 Apl. 1695 (Mar. Lic. Fac.), Stephen-Monginot Dampierre, then described
as of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., a bachelor, aged about twenty-nine. She died, according to
the Funeral Book, 28 Dec., and the affidavit of her burial in woollen described her as of
St. George's in the Fields, Midx. See her son's baptism 20 Sep. 1700.
5 The Funeral Book says "Thomas Garth, Esq.," and that he died 7 Jan., aged sixty-six. The
newspapers of the day call him "Major Garth, of the fourth troop of foot guards." He was a
younger son of William Garth and Mary his wife, of Gainford, co. Durham, where he was baptized
29 Sep. 1664, and was a brother of Sir Samuel Garth, Kt., the celebrated physician, and author of
The Dispensary. His will, as of New Bond Street, St. George's, Hanover Square, Midx., Esq., dated
15 June 1728, was proved 1 Feb. 1730-1, by his relict Elizabeth (see her burial 28 July 1746). He
bequeathed his freehold estates at Harold, Odell, etc., co. Beds, to his sons John and James in suc-
cession, and their heirs male, with remainder to his nephew Bowes Garth, son of his brother William

2 Third dáu. of Ralph Freke, of Hannington, Wilts, Esq., by Cecilia, dau. of Sir Thomas
Colepeper, of Hollingbourne, Kent, Kt. She married, first, about 1672, Sir George Norton, of
Abbotts-Leigh, co. Somerset, Kt., from whom, in 1697, she had been living apart for some
years, who died 26 Apl. 1715, aged sixty-seven; secondly, at the Chapel Royal, Whitehall,
23 Apl. 1718, Col. Ambrose Norton, cousin-german of her first husband, to whom she was third
wife (see his first marriage 8 June 1685, and note thereto), who died 10 Sep. 1723, in his seventy-
seventh year; and thirdly, at Somerset House Chapel, 24 Sep. 1724, then aged eighty-four,
William Jones, Esq., whom she also survived. She died, according to the Funeral Book,
20 Feb., aged ninety, and was therefore considerably the senior of her first and second husbands,
and probably of her third. Her will, as Dame Frances Norton alias Jones, widow, dated
25 Jan. 1730-1, was proved 20 Feb. following, the very day of her death, by her kinswoman
Sarah Munn, of St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., widow, whom she made her residuary legatee,
having disposed of her estate by deed previous to her third marriage. She occupied a certain
position among the literary ladies of her day, and her writings have been much commended,
but they do not appear to have demanded modern reproduction. See the burials of her sisters,
Mrs. Elizabeth Freke 12 Apl. 1714, and Mrs. Judith Austen 24 May 1716. It has always been
erroneously stated that her dau. Grace, who married Sir Richard Gethin, of Ireland, was buried
in the Abbey, and the inscription on the monument erected to her memory leads to the inference
that her only other two children, George and Elizabeth, were also buried there. But a precise
duplicate of this inscription is to be found in the Abbey Church at Bath, and probably another
was put up in Ireland, or wherever Dame Grace Gethin was buried. Neither of the three
children were interred in the Abbey, unless unaccountably omitted from both the Register and
Funeral Book, and the son George, who was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 30 Aug.
1673, was certainly also buried there 10 Sep. following.
3 The Funeral Book says that he died 9 Apl., aged thirty-seven. He was mentioned in the
Chapter Book, as the College paviour, 4 May 1728 and 7 Jan. 1730-1. His relict Bridget
administered to his estate, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, 1 May 1731, when he was
described as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster. See the burials, probably of his sons,
28 May 1730 and 19 June 1773.
4 Robert, son of Robert Benson, of Wrenthorpe, co. York, Esq., by Dorothy, dau, of Tobias
Jenkins, of Grimston, in the same county, Esq., who remarried Sir Henry Belasyse (see her

and under treasurer of the exchequer, and was created Baron Bingley, of Bingley, co. York,
21 July 1713. He was subsequently ambassador to the Court of Spain. He died, according to
the Funeral Book, 9 Apl., aged fifty-five, and was buried on the left side of his mother. Leaving
no male issue, the title became extinct. See the burials, of his wife 11 Mch. 1757, his only
legitimate dau. 13 Apl. 1771, and probably of his sister, or some other member of his family,
15 Feb. 1698-9. His will, dated 27 June 1729, with a codicil 9 Mch. 1729-30, was proved
13 Apl. 1731. After bequeathing his house in Queen Street, Westminster, to his wife, he left
£7000 to trustees for the use of his illegitimate dau. Mary Johnson, then at the boarding-school
of Elizabeth Lewis, at Stoke Newington, Midx., who was to take the name of Benson after his
death, and whom he particularly recommended to the protection of his dear dau. Harriet. His
next bequest was to Anna-Maria, wife of John Burgoyne, of Park Prospect, Westminster, Esq.,

to whom he gave £400 per annum, his house in Park Prospect, and his house called "The
Nunnery," at Cheshunt, Herts, with all its plate, jewels, and other contents, for her separate use
for life, forgiving her husband what he owed him. The residue of his estate, except small
annuities to two or three widows, was to be invested in lands in Yorkshire, to the use of his
dau. Harriet and the heirs of her body, with remainder to said Mary Johnson and her heirs
male, then to his godson John Burgoyne, son of said John and Anna-Maria, who, if the estate
came to him, was to take the name of "Robert Benson," then to his godson Robert, son of his
cousin Samucl Benson, then to other godsons in succession, and finally to his right heirs.
1 The Funeral Book says that she died 5 May, aged twenty-seven. Her history appears to have
been a melancholy one. One Thomas Judge, of Wells, co. Somerset, Gent., made his will 12 Apl.
1731, leaving to his brother Joseph only his watch and his best suit of clothes, and the residue of
his property to Margaret Bowker, spinster, then living with the Right Rev. John Wynne, Bishop
of Bath and Wells. On the 2nd of May following, Margaret Bowker, of St. Clement Danes,
Midx., spinster, made her will, bequeathing to Joseph Judge, citizen and brushmaker of London,
all the estate, real and personal, which had been devised to her by the will of his brother Thomas.
Three days later she died, and both were buried within the month. The simple facts naturally sug-
gest the history of this unfortunate couple. She bequeathed to her two eldest sisters, Ann Parson-
age and Deborah Warren, all that she was entitled to under the will of her late father William
Bowker, and to her two youngest sisters, Elizabeth and Frances Bowker, all that had been de-
vised to her by her late uncle Joseph Bowker. She left £5 to the poor of Malpas, co. Chester,
and the residue of her estate to her brother John Bowker, who proved the will 22 May 1731.
2 The Funeral Book says that he died 17 May, aged seventy-five.
He is said to have been a son of William Bradford, citizen of London, and a parish officer,
and to have been born 20 Dcc. 1652, in Blackfriars, but no record of his baptism occurs in the
registers of St. Anne or St. Andrew-by-the-Wardrobe. He was of Corpus Christi College, Cam-
bridge, A.M. by royal letters 1681, and S.T.P. by royal command 1705. He was Rector of St.
Mary-le-Bow, London, 21 Nov. 1693, installed Prebendary of Westminster 23 Feb. 1707-8,
elected Master of his College 17 May 1716 (resigned 1724), consecrated Bishop of Carlisle
1 June 1718, installed Dean of Westminster 7 June 1723, translated to the see of Rochester and
confirmed 19 July 1723. He died, according to his monument, 17 May, in his seventy-ninth
year. See the burials, of his wife 5 Mch. 1738-9, and his son 19 July 1728.
4 Dau. of Rev. John Denne, Archdeacon of Rochester, by Susanna, youngest dau. of the Rt.
Rev. Samuel Bradford, Bishop of Rochester and Dean of Westminster (sec his burial in the pre-

brother's baptism 1 Aug. 1725, and note thereto.
5 Son of Rev. Samuel Wesley and Ursula his wife (see the burial 20 Feb. 1724-5, and note

sisters 8 Jan. 1625-6 and 15 Aug. 1727.

baptized at St. Olave's, Hart Street, London, 1 June 1665, and married, first, at St. Peter-le-Poor,
London, 24 Aug. 1682, William Hussey, Esq. (younger brother of Sir Thomas Hussey, sccond

dated 23 Mch. 1729-30, was proved 22 July 1731, by her nephews, Sir John Buckworth, Bart.
and his brother Everard Buckworth, Esq.
¹ Relict of Thomas Warren, College butler, etc. (see his burial 7 Aug. 1699). According to the

1730-1, was proved 19 June 1731, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by her son Thomas
Warren (see his burial 28 Mch. 1741). See the burial of her dau. 7 Aug. 1734, and the burial of

• Lady Elizabeth Shirley, eldest dau. and coheir of Washington, second Earl Ferrers, by
Mary, eldest surviving dau. of Sir Richard Levinge, Kt. and first Bart. of Ireland, lord chief-
justice of the court of Common Pleas of that kingdom. She was born in 1704, and married,
24 June 1725, Joseph-Gascoigne Nightingale, Esq. (see his burial 25 July 1752). She died
17 Aug., in childbed of her only dau., Elizabeth, who, in July 1754, married Wilmot Vaughan,
first Earl of Lisburne. Of her three sons, Washington-Gascoigne, Joseph, and Robert, all living
at her death, the first only survived his father. Her extraordinary monument, by Roubiliac, is
considered the gem of the Abbey, and probably would. if in a church at Rome, become the object of
many a pilgrimage. By a wretched blunder, probably of the sculptor, the inscription above the
monument, put up many years later, gives the year of her death as 1734, and the error has been
naturally repeated, even in the histories of her family, to the present day. If any evidence is
required to confirm the date in the Abbey Register, it is to be found in the fact that her husband
made his will on the 25th of October, 1731, when he directed to be buried in the Abbey near his
late wife.

and baptized at Kensington 1 Aug. 1674. He succeeded as fourth Earl of Orrery and Baron of
Broghill, in the peerage of Ireland, in 1703, and was created, 5 Sep. 1711, Baron Boyle of Marston,
in the English peerage. He attained the rank of Major-General in the army 1 Jan. 1709-10, and
was the same year Envoy-extraordinary to Flanders. The well-known astronomical instrument
called "Orrery" derived its name from his title, and he occupies a place in history by reason of his
literary contest with Dr. Bentley. He married, 29 Mch. 1706, Lady Elizabeth Cecil, youngest
and only surviving dau. of John, fifth Earl of Exeter, who lived little more than two years,
being buried at St. James, Westminster, 21 June 1708. Their only son John succeeded to the
titles.
1 The Funeral Book says that he died 4 Oct., aged nine weeks. The name should probably
bc Seagar. Sce a baptism, doubtless of his brother, 22 Nov. 1729.
2 The Funeral Book says that she died 15 Oct., aged fourteen years, and was buried in the
grave with her mother (see her burial 27 Mch. 1726).
3 The Funeral Book says that she died 26 Oct., aged seventy, and that the fees were paid by
Mrs. Mary Walker (see her burial 21 Oct. 1741).
4 The newspapers of the day say that he had the command of a regiment of foot on the Irish
establishment. He was well-known in society, and had the nickname of "Duke," from, it is
said, his habit of using that word as an ejaculation. He was an intimate friend of Licut.-
General Henry Withers (see his burial 14 Nov. 1729), who made him his residuary legatce and
executor. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 21 Nov., aged fifty-six. His will, as Henry
Disney, of St. James, Westminster, Esq., dated 3 June 1731, was proved 1 Dec. following, by
James Pearse, of Arundel Street, Esq., and Capt. Alexander Wilson. Having given to Major-
General John Hill, Samuel Masham, Esq. (afterwards second Lord Masham), and Percy Wyndham,
Esq. (afterwards Earl of Thomond), considerable legacies, he finally made them his residuary
legatees. His other bequests were exclusively to members of the nobility, military friends, and
servants, and the will furnishes no clew to his family. His name, on his own tablet and on that
which he erected to the memory of General Withers, is given as "Desney," but he signed his will
Henry Disney."

Witherley, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, widow, without date, but with codicils 6 Mch.

spinster, to whom she bequeathed her lands at "Thrupenden," co. Gloucester, and the most of
her personalty. She desired her cousin Thomas Wylde, of Lincoln's Inn Fields, Esq., to bury
her in the Abbey Cloisters, in the grave of her husband (see his burial 4 Oct. 1717). She left
legacies to her nicce Mrs. Mary Jones and her dau., her cousin John Evans, and to Mrs. Rebecca

London career as apprentice to a silk mercer, but was persuaded, in 1712. to become secretary to

ambassador to Hanover. He appears, however, to have been generally unfortunate in his Court
life. The Duke and Duchess of Queensberry were his real and his best friends, but could not
always secure for him that respect and attention which they and he seemed to think he deserved.

Edward Des Bouveric, of Longford, Wilts, Bart., and two others, whom she appointed trustees
and guardians of her children by the Earl of Clanricarde, to whom she left her entire estate,
adding that she gave nothing to any of her children by her former husband, Hugh Parker. Esq.,

Jones, and Margaret Lloyd, consisting chiefly of bonds of Sir Charles Hotham, and a certain
annuity for the lives of Ann Glynne and Jane Glynne. Her only sister, Frances, married
Sir Thomas Wynn, first Bart., ancestor of the present Lord Newborough.
The journals of the period and other authorities say that he was an illegitimate son of the
Duke of Schomberg (see his burial 4 Aug. 1719). He was Colonel of one of his father's
regiments for many years, and attained the rank of Major-General 23 Jan. 1709-10. The news-

Cardonel, to each of whom he gave £10. The rest of his estate he bequeathed to his wife Mary,

Jennings, of Sandridge, co. Herts, Esq. She was born the 20th, and baptized at St. Martin in
the Fields, Midx., 29 July 1681, as dau. of Colonel John Churchill and Sarah his wife, and
married Francis, second Earl of Godolphin, who survived her, and died 17 Jan. 1766. She
succeeded to her father's titles under a special act of Parliament. The date in the text is an
error. The Funeral Book says that she died 24 Oct., in her fifty-third year, and was buried
9 Nov. In her will, dated 11 July 1732, but not proved until 19 May 1736, she declared that it
was her desire and express will that her remains should never, on any pretence whatsoever, be
carried to Blenheim. She was the patroness and chief legatee of the poet Congreve.
7 Eldest child of Rev. Dr. Thomas Manningham, Prebendary of Westminster, by Mary his

1714. She died, according to the Funeral Book and her monument, 12 Nov., aged nineteen, and
the journals of the day say that she was buried on the 14th, which is probably correct.
¹ Son and apparently eldest child of Mrs. Susan Glover (see her burial 25 Feb. 1739-40), and
nephew and heir of Rev. Michael Evans, Prebendary of Westminster (see his burial 25 Aug.
1732), and of John Evans, Esq. (see his burial 13 Apl. 1727). The Funeral Book says that he
died 16 Nov., and the papers of the day say at Bath. His will, as of St. George's, Bloomsbury,
Midx., Gent., dated 4 June 1733, was proved 1 Dec. following, by his mother. He left consider-
able legacies to his only sister Mrs. Mary Wright and her children, and his cousins, Robert and
Thomas Thomson, and Rebecca Owen. His manor of Stanley Hall, and lands in Pebmarsh,
Halstead, and Little Maplestcad, co. Essex, and his estates bequeathed to him by his uncle
Evans, he gave to his only brother John Glover (see his burial 16 May 1740).
2 Lady Mary Somerset, eldest surviving dau. of Henry, first Duke of Beaufort, by Mary, dau.
of Arthur, first Lord Capel, and widow of Henry Seymour, Lord Beauchamp. She married, in
1685, James Butler, who succeeded his grandfather, as second Duke of Ormond, 21 July 1688.
He was attainted in 1715, and passed the rest of his life abroad (see his burial 22 May 1746).
It is said that she never once saw her husband during his exile. She died, according to the
Funeral Book, 19 Nov., in her sixty-ninth year. See the burials of her children, 1 Mch. 1688-9,
29 Aug. 1701, and 27 Apl. 1750.
3 Son of John Tufnell, the Abbey mason (sce his burial 23 Feb. 1696-7), by Dorothy his
wife (see her burial 20 Oct. 1720), and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 6 Feb. 1679-80.
He is described in the journals of the day as master-builder and bricklayer to the New River
Company, and one of the burgesses for the city and liberty of Westminster, and as leaving a
fortune of from thirty to fifty thousand pounds. He died 9 Dcc. See his wife's burial 11 Oct.
1720. The baptisms of his twelve children occur in the parish registers of St. Margaret's,
Westminster, between 2 Jan. 1700-1 and 1 Jan. 1718-19. See the burials of three of them,
26 Mch. 1724, 10 Nov. 1734, and 4 Mch. 1739-40.
4 He is mentioned in the Chapter Book as early as 14 Jan. 1690-1, as then Librarian and
Clerk of the Kitchen to the Abbey. He was appointed Auditor 29 Mch. 1729, when he resigned
the office of Clerk of the Kitchen, and it was abolished altogether. He appears to have been
also Registrar of the diocese of Rochester. The journals of the day say that he had been
secretary to Bishop Sprat, and was instrumental in saving his life, and the lives of Archbishop
Sancroft, the Duke of Marlborough, and other distinguished personages, by detecting the falsity
of evidence given by certain witnesses in respect to an alleged plot for assassinating K. William.
He died, according to the Funeral Book, 20 Dec., aged seventy-one. His will, dated 6 Mch. 1730-1,
with codicils 6 Dec. 1732 and 28 Mch. 1733, was proved 16 Jan. 1733-4, by his nephew Rev.
Thomas Moore, D.D., and his niece Mary, wife of Robert Berkeley, whom he described as a
silver-laceman. He left considerable legacies to his nephew Rev. Charles Sear, son of his sister
Anne Sear, his niece Rebecca, wife of Colonel Evans, and the children of his sister-in-law
Mrs. Mary Baldwyn, widow. See his wife's burial 5 Aug. 1720.
The Funeral Book says that she died 26 Dcc., aged thirty-nine. The place of burial
indicates her humble position.
6 The Funeral Book says that she died 14 Jan., aged twenty-three. See the burial, probably
of her sister, 17 Nov. 1721, and note thereto.

1 He was sworn Gospeller" of the Chapel Royal 8 Nov. 1697, and advanced to the full
place of Gentleman 2 Mch. 1699-1700, and was also one of the Abbey choir. He died, according
to the Funeral Book, 26 Mch., aged seventy-four. See his first wife's burial 16 July 1720. His
will, dated 11 Feb. 1725-6, was proved 27 Mch. 1734, by his second wife and relict Elizabeth, to
whom he left his house in Dean's Yard for life, with remainder to his son John and his dau.
Elinor Shrider equally. He always signed his name in the Cheque Book of the Chapel Royal, as
he did his will, "Thomas Jenings." See the baptisms, of his dau. 1 May 1689, and of his sons
12 Feb. 1690-1 and 13 May 1693, and the burials of his children 24 Nov. 1693, 15 Oct. 1697,

2 The Funeral Book says "Eleanor Horden," and that she died 17 Apl., aged thirteen
years. See the burial, probably of her sister, 19 May 1721, and note thereto.
3 Eldest son of John Chittam (see his burial 13 Mch. 1725-6), whom he succeeded as
scavenger of the Great Cloisters. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 26 May, aged thirty-
five. His will, dated 25 Mch. 1733, was proved the day before his burial, in the Court of the
Dean and Chapter, by his relict Margaret, who was alone named in it. In that record his name
is given as "Chetham."
Younger dau. of Charles Thorold, Esq., Alderman of London, by his second wife, Anne,
second dau. of George Clarke, of Hackney, Midx., citizen and merchant-taylor of London, and
sister of Sir George and Sir Samuel Thorold, first and second Baronets of Harmston, co. Lincoln.
She married, at St. Bride's, London, 13 Nov. 1712. John Grainger, Esq., one of the deputy-
tellers of the Exchequer (see bis burial 8 Mch. 1735-6). She died 11 July, and her will, dated
20 Dec. 1733, was proved by her husband 26 July 1734.
5 Dau. of Thomas Warren, College butler (see his burial 7 Aug. 1699), by Elizabeth his
wife (see her burial 17 June 1731). The Funeral Book says that she died 5 Aug., aged forty-
five, and was buried on the right side of her father. See her brother's burial 28 Mch. 1741.
6 Eldest dau. of John Legh, of Adlington, co. Chester, Esq., by Lady Isabella Robartes,
eldest dau. of Robert, Viscount Bodmin (eldest son of John, first Earl of Radnor, but died in
his father's lifetime), and sister of Charles-Bodvile, second Earl of Radnor (see their sister's
burial, in the same chapel, 14 Jan. 1726-7). According to the Funeral Book, she died 15 Aug.,
aged thirty-nine, but the newspapers of the day all say that she died on the 17th. Her father
administered to her estate 5 Sep. following.
7 The Funeral Book says that she died 31 Aug., aged twenty-two, and gives her the same
surname; but in the St. James's Evening Post, of Thursday, 5 Sep. 1734, the following paragraph
occurs, and is substantially repeated in other journals of the same date : On Saturday died in
the Great Ambery [Almonry], Westminster, of the small-pox, Mrs. Elizabeth Fairfax, wife of
James Fairfax, Esq., and on Tuesday night her corpse. having lain in state in the Jerusalem
Chamber, was afterwards interred in the Cloisters of Westminster Abbey." It is inconceivable
that the scribes of both the Register and Funeral Book could have thus blundered over this
simple name, especially as in the latter the copy was made from the coffin-plate. The only
reasonable solution of the mystery seems to be that the lady was not really a wife, and was
buried under her proper name.

secondly, 8 Sep. 1692, as his second wife, Ralph, first Duke of Montagu, who died in 1709, and by
him had no issue. She died, according to the Funeral Book, at Newcastle House, Clerkenwell,
Midx., 28 Aug., aged eighty; but the journals of the day, still quoted, stated her age to be
ninety-six. She was known as the "mad Duchess," and her history is too familiar and too
painful to require rehearsing.
1 First wife of Edmund Meyrick (see his burial 27 June 1742). She died, according to the
Funeral Book and her monument, 22 Sep., aged forty-nine. Her maiden name was Smith. See
the burials, of her brothers 12 Sep. 1738 and 1 Oct. 1755, and of her sister 27 May 1760.

Midx. The eldest son, Charles, was buried at Chiswick, Midx., 4 June 1739, and the second son,
Philip, died 14 Dec. 1736. The father was buried at St. James, Westminster, 22 Nov. 1717.
She married, secondly, in June 1731 (Marr. Sett. dated the 4th, quoted in her will), Capt.
Jonathan Warr, of Isleworth, Midx, who survived her, and by whom she appears to have had no
issue. Her will, dated 15 Feb. 1733-4, with a codicil 7 Nov. 1734, was proved 3 Jan. 1734-5, by
her son Robert Barnevelt. See her brother's burial 27 Apl. 1746.
The Funeral Book says that she died 7 Jan., aged thirty-four, and her monument describes
her as of the city of Lichfield, but as having resided for the last nine years of her life at Madeira,
with her brother, William Rider, Esq., late consul there, who erected the tablet.
2 Eldest son of Richard, second Earl of Bradford, by Mary, third and youngest dau. and
coheir of Sir Thomas Wilbraham, third and last Bart. of Woodhey, co. Chester. He succeeded as
third Earl in 1723. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 25 Dec. 1734, in his fifty-second
year. He appears to have died unmarried, and certainly left no legitimate issue. His will, dated
8 May 1730, with codicils 16 May 1730 and 17 Apl. 1733, was proved 21 Jan. 1724-5. He be-

estate to his illegitimate son by her, then called John Harrison (see his burial, as John Newport,

who administered to her husband's estate 10 Nov. 1680, and was buried at St. Margaret's, West-
minster, 21 Feb. 1686-7. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 14 Jan. Her will, as of
St. Margaret's, Westminster, spinster, dated 28 Aug. 1733, was proved 30 Apl. 1735, by her
sister Martha Harsnett, widow of Rev. Robert Harsnett, D.D., some time Prebendary of Wells,
but deprived in 1694 (sce his father's burial 27 Oct. 1692). She bequeathed to her said sister all
her real and personal estate, including "the rectory or parsonage impropriate of Ifield, co.
Sussex, and the advowson of the vicarage thereof." See a pedigree of her family in Berry's
County Genealogies, Sussex, p. 97.
4 The Funeral Book says that he died 17 Jan., aged fifty-two.-"Yesterday morning died of
a tedious Indisposition, at his lodgings in Pall-Mall, Francis Coghlan, Esq.. a Barrister-at-Law
of the kingdom of Ireland: He no sooner appeared at that Bar than he distinguished himself in
a very eminent degree, and shortly became the Darling of the Irish Courts: his conduct in life
was so amiable that he was as universally esteemed as known, and, as Humanity and good
nature influenced all his actions, he may justly be deemed a general loss to his country"
(General Evening Post, 18 Jan. 1734-5).-A special marriage license was granted by the Vicar-
General, 29 Dec. 1709, for Francis Coghlan, of the Inner Temple, Esq., bachelor, and Martha
Price, of St. Clement Danes, Midx., widow.
5 The Funeral Book says "Mrs. Elizabeth Cotes," and that she died 10 Feb., and was buried
in the same grave with Mrs. Catharine Hyde (see her burial 28 Feb. 1706-7). In Mrs. Hyde's
will, she was called her maid-servant. In the newspapers of the day she was described as a
"maiden gentlewoman," and it was said that she died at her house in the Cloisters, and that her
body "lay in state in the Jerusalem Chamber." Her will, as Elizabeth Cotes, of St. Margaret's,
Westminster, spinster, dated 31 Dec. 1733, was proved 17 Feb. 1734-5, by Mr. Michael Spateman,
residuary legatee. She directed to be buried in linen, in the same grave with her late dear

He was born the 3rd, and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 29 Jan. 1715-16, and matri-
culated at Oxford, from Queen's College, 2 Aug. 1732. His will, dated 14 Oct. 1734, was proved
6 Dec. 1735, by his mother, to whom he gave all his estate, and who is alone named in it. Dying
unmarried, his titles became extinct.
2 Reputed illegitimate son of Frederick Louis, Prince of Wales (see his burial 13 Apl. 1751),
although two other noble personages appear to have claimed the honour of his paternity, by the
Hon. Anne Vane, eldest dau. of Gilbert, second Lord Barnard, Maid of Honour to Q. Caroline
when Princess of Wales, who died at Bath 27 Mch. in the same year. His baptism is thus
recorded in the parish register of St. James, Westminster, under the date of 17 June 1732:
"Cornwall Fitz-Frederick, son of the Hon. Mrs. Vane, p' J. Snowe, Chaplain to His Royal
Highness the Prince of Wales." The newspapers of the day state that the ceremony was
performed at her house in St. James Street, by the Rev. Dr. Snowe, soon after the child's birth,
and that the godfathers were the Hon. Henry Vane (the lady's brother) and Lord Baltimore.
He died, according to the Funeral Book, 23 Feb., in his fourth year. The mother was known in

Blundell. She directed to be buried, if she died in London, in the Abbey cloisters near her father
and mother, or, if at Oxford, in St. Aldate's Church, by her husband. Her only son, Matthew,

1 Youngest son of Matthew Drift, of St. Paul's, Covent Garden, Midx., tailor, by Catharine
his wife, whom he married, at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 11 June 1666, as Catharine
Hutton, widow. He was the personal friend of Matthew Prior, the poet (see his burial 25 Sep.

secretary when he was abroad in public employments. He died, according to the Funeral Book,
28 Feb., aged sixty-two. He died unmarried, and was buried, as he desired, near Mr. Prior.

his wife, described as his cousins-german and two of his next of kin.
2 Wife of Bernard Gates, master of the choristers, etc. (see his burial 23 Nov. 1773). She
died, according to the Funeral Book, 10 Mch., aged forty-eight. Her monument states that she
was brought up from her childhood by her friend Mrs. Elizabeth Atkinson (see her burial 15 Mch.
1725-6), but there is nothing in Mrs. Atkinson's will to indicate that any other relationship
existed between them. See the burials of her children, 6 June 1717, 11 July 1719, and 28 Nov.
1736.
3 The Funeral Book says that she died 24 Mch., aged sixty-six. Her will, as of Frox-
field Almshouse, co. Wilts, dated 24 Mch. 1734-5, was proved 4 June 1737, by her dau.
Catherine Powell, spinster, to whom she left all her possessions. She was probably a relation,
perhaps mother, of Rev. Richard Powell, minor canon (see his burial 4 Feb. 1738-9). Frox-
field Almshouse was founded in 1686, by Sarah, Duchess-dowager of Somerset, for the reception
of thirty widows of clergymen from any part of England, and twenty widows of laymen
exclusively of Wiltshire, whose incomes were not more than £20 per annum, and is still a highly
respectable institution.
• He was educated under the celebrated Dr. Croft, and appointed organist of the Chapel
Royal 21 June 1736, being then organist of St. George's, Hanover Square. He died, according
to the Funeral Book, 4 Apl., aged twenty-two. The newspapers of the day say that he died of con-
sumption, and was a young gentleman as much esteemed for his amiable personal qualities as
he was admired for his great excellency in his profession."
5 Son of Edmund Burt and Anne Taylour his wife, who were married at St. Martin in the
Fields, Midx., 6 Dcc. 1705. He was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 27 Sep. 1720, and
was admitted into Westminster School in 1735. The Funeral Book says that he died 27 Apl.,
aged seventeen.

his name was baptized at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, Midx., 8 Mch. 1687-8, as son of Leonard
Conduit and Sarah his wife, whose age would exactly agree with his. He succeeded Sir Isaac
Newton (whose niece he married) as Master of the Mint, and was M.P. for Whitchurch 1722 and
1729, and for Southampton 1735. His will, as John Conduitt, of Cranbury, co. Southampton,
Esq., dated 29 May 1732, was proved 25 May 1737, by his relict Catharine (see her burial 29 Jan.
1739-40). His only dau., Catharine, married John, Viscount Lymington (see her burial 4 May
1750). One of his name had a grant of armis, 16 Aug. 1717, when it was said that he had served

was proved 26 July following, by her niece Lady Charlotte Hyde, to whom she left her entire

¹ He died, according to the Funeral Book, 6 Dec., aged seventy-two. The place of burial
sufficiently indicates his humble position.
2 Wilhelmina-Charlotte-Caroline, dau. of John-Frederic, Margrave of Brandenburg-Anspach,
by his second wife, Eleanor-Erdmuth-Louisa, dau. of John-George, Duke of Saxe-Eisenach. She
was born 1 Mch. 1682-3, and married, at Hanover, 22 Aug. (O.S.) 1705, George-Augustus, only

3 She died, according to the Funeral Book, 22 Feb., aged seventy-seven. She administered
to the estate of Col. Edward Leigh (see his burial 24 Jan. 1703-4), as his sister, and was then a
widow. Her will, as of Chute, co. Wilts, dated 10 Mch. 1730-1, with codicils 3 Aug. and 17 Sep.
1735, was proved 13 Mch. 1737-8, by her cousin," Lora Pitt, of Arlington Street, St. George's,
Hanover Square, Midx., with whom she appears to have been living at her death, and to whom
she left her pictures, etc., "with millions of thanks for her very long and true friendship." She
mentioned no other relation, except her nephew George Foyle, to whom she left a diamond ring.
Her other bequests were diamond rings, jewels, pictures, etc., chiefly to titled ladies evidently not
related to her.
4 Evidently a child of Mr. David Cheriton, one of the choir (see his burial 11 Jan. 1758), by
his first wife, Frances (see her burial 19 Apl. 1739). The Funeral Book says that she died 4 Mch.,

Irish peerage, by Castiliana, dau. of Henry Gilbert, of Kilmiuchy, Queen's county, Ireland, Esq.

6 Evidently a child of John Ilsley, College beadle (see his burial 28 June 1750), by Margaret,
his second wife (see her burial 22 Nov. 1746). The Funeral Book says that he died 7 June, aged
nine weeks.

weeks.

cording to the Funeral Book, 26 June. aged sixty-seven, and was buried in her husband's grave,
the fees being paid by the Company of Upholders. Her son Thomas Edwards administered to

dated 22 Sep. 1737, was proved 14 Sep. 1738, by Mary Faver, spinster, whom he made his resi-
duary legatee. He disposed of considerable property, but evidently to persons not his relations,
and the will gives no clew to his family.
¹ Dau. and evidently youngest child of Reimerd Watkins (see his burial 7 Sep. 1719), by
Mary his wife (see her burial 1 Nov. 1743). She died, according to the Funeral Book, 2 Sep.,
aged thirty. She appears to have been twice married, as letters of administration to her estate
were granted, 31 Oct. 1739, to her husband Peter-Joseph Molloy, when she was described as Ann
Molloy, alias Mann, alias Watkins, late of St. George's, Hanover Square, Midx. Her husband

William Parsons, third Bart. of Langley, co. Bucks, and second wife and relict of George
Fitzroy, Duke of Northumberland (sce his burial 11 July 1716). The precise date of their mar-
riage has never been ascertained, but his first Duchess died 25 May 1714 (see her burial 3 June
in that year), and in his will, dated 12 Mch. 1714-15, he declared that the lady named in the
text was then his wife, and Duchess of Northumberland. Even Le Neve, who, with all his great
love for the scandal of his day, noting the Duke's death in his MS. diary, then mentioned her as
"Mrs. Dutton, his mistress, said to be his wife, and called Duchess," had the grace afterwards to
add to his note the marriage proved and owned." She died at Frogmore, near Windsor,
27 Aug. Her will, dated 1 Mch. 1737-8, was proved 1 Sep. 1738, ten days before her burial, by
her friend Capt. John-Merick Cole, and, 25 Oct. following, by her brother Mark Dutton. She
left no issue.
3 Letters of administration to his estate, as of St. Mary's, Lambeth, co. Surrey, bachelor,

He died, according to the Funeral Book, 5 Sep., aged forty-nine, and was buried on the right side
of his sister Frances Meyrick (see her burial 24 Sep. 1734). See also the burial of his brother
1 Oct. 1755.
Son of Benjamin Winckles, organ-blower (see his burial 23 Nov. 1732). He was appointed,

7 Nov. 1724.
5 Letters of administration to his estate, as John Kempe, of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx.,
Esq., were granted, 25 May 1739, to John, Earl of Orrery, curator or guardian assigned to Boyle-
Staunton Kempe and Henrietta Kempe, minors, his only children, his relict Elizabeth having
died without administering (see her burial 6 May 1739). The Funeral Book says that he died
11 Oct., aged thirty-eight. The journals of the day described him as of the Middle Temple,
Counsellor-at-Law, and stated that he died at his house in Downing Street.
The Funeral Book says that he died 19 Oct., aged sixty-three. The journals of the day
describe him as one of the Gentlemen of the Honourable Band of Pensioners, and say that he
died at his house in Prince's Court, Westminster. His will, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster,
Gent., dated 26 Mch. 1738, with a codicil 13 Oct. in the same year, was proved 27 Oct. following,

¹ Dau. and sole heir of John Leith, of Whitehaugh, Aberdeenshire, Esq., by Elizabeth, dau.
of William, eleventh Lord Forbes, and relict of William Forbes, Esq. (see his burial 10 Apl. 1728),
to whom married in 1706. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 11 Nov., aged fifty-nine.
2 Dau. and last surviving child of John Blow, the celebrated Doctor of Music (see his burial
8 Oct. 1708), by Elizabeth his wife (sec her burial 31 Oct. 1683). She died, according to the
Funeral Book, 19 Nov., and was buried in her father's grave. Her will, as of St. Margaret's,
Westminster, spinster, dated 29 Mch. 1736, was proved 23 Nov. 1738, in the Court of the Dean
and Chapter, by Edmund Burton, of New Palace Yard, Westminster, Gent., to whom she be-
queathed her entire estate, except £10 to her cousin Elizabeth Blow, of Theobald s Park, Herts,
spinster, and one shilling to her brother-in-law William Edgeworth (see his wife's burial 9 Sep.
1719), besides eight guineas which he had borrowed from her servant, if he did not repay her.
3 One of the minor canons of the Abbey, and one of the priests in ordinary of the Chapel
Royal. One of his name matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church, 1 Mch. 1728-9, aged
twenty-two, as son of John Powell, of co. Midx., paying the fees of a plebeian's son, but does not
seem to have taken any degree there. According to the Funeral Book, he died 30 Jan., aged
thirty-three. He appears to have married Anne, dau. of James Bentham, and grand-daughter of
Rev. Samuel Bentham, minor canon (see his burial 5 Mch. 1729-30), who administered to his estate
16 Feb. 1738-9, and who was living, his widow, at Farningham, co. Kent, in 1776. See the baptisms
of his children, 12 Apl. 1733 and 4 July 1735, and the burial of one of them 12 Aug. 1736.
4 Relict of the Right Rev. Samuel Bradford, Bishop of Rochester and Dean of Westminster
(see his burial 22 May 1731). She died, according to the Funeral Book, 26 Feb., aged eighty.
Letters of administration to her estate, as of Lambeth, co. Surrey, were granted 14 Mch.
1738-9, to her daughters and only surviving children, Jane, wife of Rev. Reuben Clarke. D.D.
(see the note to a baptism 12 Oct. 1725), and Susanna, wife of Rev. John Denne, D.D. (see the
note to a baptism 1 Aug. 1725). See her son's burial 19 July 1728.
5 Evidently a child of Rev. George Carleton, Chanter of the Abbey, by his wife Elizabeth.
See her sister's baptism 4 Dec. 1732, and note thereto, and the burials, of her brother 24 Mch.
1729-30, and of her sisters, 26 Dec. 1728 and 10 Mch. 1735-6. She died, according to the
Funeral Book, 8 Mch., aged one year and six months.
6 Lord Charles Douglas, second surviving son of Lord William Douglas, by his wife Anne,
Duchess of Hamilton. He succeeded by royal patent to the titles of Earl of Selkirk and Baron
Daer and Shortcleuch, which his father resigned on being created Duke of Hamilton for life.
According to his coffin-plate (exposed in 1867), he was born 3 Feb. 1662-3, and died 13 Mch.
1738-9. He died unmarried, and by his will, dated 4 May 1734, made his nephew, William,
Lord Riccartoun, his universal legatee and executor, who proved the will 27 June 1739, after a
contest between him and several other nephews and nieces of the deceased Earl.

4 Francis de la Rochefoucauld, second but eldest surviving son of Charles-Louis, second
Marquess de Montandre, by Madeline-Anne Pithou, dau. of Pierre, Seigneur De Luyères. He
was born in September 1672, and appears to have been bred a canon in the Abbey of St. Victor
at Paris, but fled to England on account of the change in his religious sentiments, and was in
the army as early as 1693. He rose rapidly, and attained the rank of Major-General in 1706,
that of Lieut.-General 1709-10, and finally that of Field-Marshal 2 July 1739. He died, according

brother of Thomas, eighth Earl of Westmoreland, who survived her, and remarried Anne
Wynne (see her baptism in 1722, and note thereto). She died, according to the Funeral Book,
29 Sep., in her twenty-second year. Her only dau., Charlotte, was born the 3rd, and baptized at
St. James, Westminster, 27 May 1739, and married Sir William St. Quintin, fifth Bart. of
Harpham, co. York, but died without issue, 17 Apl. 1762.

died, according to the Funeral Book, 6 Oct., aged seventeen, and was buried in his father's
grave. Although under age, he left a will, dated 5 Oct. 1739, which was admitted to probate,
and proved on the 19th of the same month, by his brother Charles Lowe (see his baptism 3 Aug.
1718). He described himself as "apprentice of Mr. John Frcke, surgeon," and left small legacies
to his master's daughters and servants, and his wearing apparel to his brother Nicholas Lowe
(see his baptism 14 Oct. 1724). He also bequeathed £21 to his fellow-apprentice, Mr. Jones, in
trust to pay the same to a certain person to whom he knew the sum was due, and desired him
to conceal the knowledge from all others. Why a will of so little importance, made by a minor,
should have been admitted to probate, it is impossible to conceive.
7 Youngest dau. of Matthew Loveday, of North Leigh, co. Oxford, Gent., by Frances, dau. of
John Windebank, M.D. (see her burial 14 Jan. 1736-7, and note thereto). She was baptized at

Dean of Canterbury). The residue of her estate she gave to her said sister's son, John Blundell,
who was to pay to his brother Francis Blundell £10 per annum for life.
¹ He died, according to the Funeral Book, 19 Nov., aged seventy. See the burial of his first
wife 12 July 1728. He married, secondly, 15 Apl. 1729, Lady Mary Feilding, eldest dau. of Basil,
fourth Earl of Denbigh, who died 1 Oct. 1732. The journals of the day described him as “an
eminent physician, immensely rich," but he appears to have been estimated differently in social
life. In the Autobiography and Correspondence of Mary Granville, Mrs. Delany, edited by
Lady Llanover, 1st Scr. i. 209, he is bluntly called "an old, very rich quack," and his second
wife unkindly stigmatized as "very ugly." Mrs. Delany gives the following account of his
second courtship: "He went one morning to make a visit, and found Lady Mary weeping. He
asked her what was the matter. She said her circumstances were so bad she could no longer
live in town but must retire into the country: she was not anxious about leaving London, but
regretted some friends she must leave behind. He said, 'Madam, may I hope I am one of
those? Certainly,' says she, 'doctor, for you have always showed us great friendship.' Then,
madam (says he), if an old man and £50,000 can be acceptable to you, you may put off your
journey whenever you please.' She did not long demur, and, after ten days' courtship, they were
married. Nobody blames the lady; the man is called 'an old fool.' His will, as of St. George's,
Hanover Square, Midx., dated 4 Dec. 1738, was proved 12 Dec. 1739, by his friends Richard
Shelley, Esq., and James Cockburn, Esq., secretary to the Duke of Argyll. He directed to be
buried in the Abbey, near his wife. To his "cousin Helen Cockburn, Lady Allanbank, widow of
the late Sir Robert Stuart, of Allanbank" [Sir Robert Stuart, created a Baronet (of Nova
Scotia) 15 Aug. 1687, married, as his second wife, Helen, dau. of Sir Archibald Cockburn, of
Langton], he bequeathed one hundred guineas, and a diamond girdle and six diamond stay-
buckles which had belonged to his two wives. To John Cockburn, of Ormiston, Esq., and to the
widow of the late Captain John Cockburn, a commander in the navy, he gave the debts they
owed him. To his cousin Mrs. Ann Cant, and her niece Amelia White, he gave £100 equally.
His estate at Stockton, co. Durham, and the residue of his personalty. he bequeathed to
Alexander Cockburn, of Langton, in Scotland, Esq., but without stating their relationship.
2 The Funeral Book says that he died 23 Nov., aged twenty-three. From the place of burial
it is evident that he was a servant, or occupied some minor position about the Abbey.
3 Son of Thomas Grant, College butler, etc. (sec his burial 15 Aug. 1748), by his wife
Susanna (see her burial 8 May 1743). The Funeral Book says that he died 6 Dec., in his seventh
year.
See his baptism 15 Apl. 1733.
4 The Funeral Book says that she died 9 Jan., aged eighty-five, and he 13 Jan., aged eighty-
eight. He appears to have been a son of Charles Turner, cook of Pembroke College, Oxford,
and to have been educated as a chorister at Christ Church. He was sworn a Gentleman of the
Chapel Royal 11 Oct. 1669, as "a counter-tenor from Lincoln," and afterwards became a vicar-
choral of St. Paul's, and a lay vicar of the Abbey. He had the degree of Doctor of Music, at
Cambridge, in 1696. They are said to have lived together nearly seventy years. His will, dated
4 Jan. 1727-8, was proved 14 Feb. 1739-40, by his dau. Anne Robinson (see her burial 8 Jan.
1740-1). He merely bequeathed a shilling cach to his five children, William-Partheriche Turner,
Edward Turner, Elizabeth Jenkins, Catharine Gardiner, and Anne Robinson, and the residue of
his estate to his wife.

Weston, of St. George's, Hanover Square, Midx., spinster, and became also Rector of Abinger, co.

2 Jan. 1678-9, and died unmarried. Her will, dated 19 Jan. 1739-40, was proved 5 Mch. following,
by her niece, Hon. Henrietta Townshend, widow of Colonel William Townshend, and dau. of her
eldest sister Anne, Lady Powlett. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 22 Jan. See her
brother's burial 17 Apl. 1687.
2 Second dau. of Robert Barton, of Brigstock, co. Northampton, Esq., by his second wife,
Hannah, dau. of Rev. Barnabas Smith, Rector of North Witham, co. Lincoln (by his wife
Hannah, widow of Isaac Newton), and half-sister of the celebrated Sir Isaac Newton (see his
burial 28 Mch. 1727). She was baptized at Brigstock 25 Nov. 1679, and married, at Russell Court
Chapel, St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 26 Aug. 1717, John Conduitt, Esq., afterwards Master of
the Mint, etc. (see his burial 27 May 1737). She died, according to the Funeral Book, 20 Jan.
See the burial of her only daughter, Viscountess Lymington, 4 May 1750.
The scandal of the day stigmatized this lady as the mistress of Charles Montagu, Earl of
Halifax (see his burial 26 May 1715), and the imputation was flippantly asserted as a fact so
lately as 1854, by the annotator of the edition of Dr. Johnson's Lives of the Poets published in
that year. The whole subject was thoroughly discussed by the late Professor De Morgan, in
Notes and Queries, 1st Scr. viii. p. 429, etc., etc., but is still open to great doubt and difficulty.
Professor De Morgan, with such facts as could be ascertained before him, the strongest of which,
perhaps, were the large bequest to her by the Earl in his will, and the peculiar character of the
language in which that bequest was couched, could find no escape from that conclusion except
by assuming that there had been a private marriage between her and the Earl, unacknowledged
lest it might affect his advancement. Indeed, he declared that, from the evidence, she must
have been his wife or his mistress. That she was not the former is very evident. No proof has
ever been discovered of such marriage, and, if there were good reasons for concealment during
his life, there could have been none when he came to die, knowing that the very language he
caused to be put into his will, if he did not recognize her as his wife, would infallibly cause her
to be regarded as his mistress. Besides, in the allegation at the Faculty Office of her intended
marriage with Mr. Conduitt, after the Earl's death, it was distinctly sworn that she was then a
spinster. The only other alternatives left are almost equally difficult to believe: either the
extraordinary intimacy between her and the Earl of Halifax was purely platonic, or else her
uncle, Sir Isaac Newton, whose character has been supposed almost immaculate, not only
consented to her debasement, but actually pandered to it, for the facts render it impossible that
such an intimacy could have been maintained without his knowledge.
3 The Funeral Book says that she died 30 Jan., aged cighteen. See her father's burial

3 Son of William Tufnell, bricklayer (see his burial 24 Dec. 1733), by Elizabeth his wife (see

according to the Funeral Book, 27 Feb., in his thirty-eighth year, and was buried at the foot of
his father's gravestone. He married, at St. George's, Bloomsbury, Midx., 20 Dec. 1739, shortly
before his death, Rebecca Austin, of St. Olave's, Southwark, co. Surrey, spinster. by whom he appears
to have had a son before their marriage. His will, as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster,
bricklayer, dated 19 Feb. 1739-40, was proved 15 Mch. following, by his brother-in-law Alexander
Haselar (see the note to a burial 23 Oct. 1734). He left moderate legacies to his sister Elizabeth,
wife of said Alexander Haselar, his sister Dorothy, wife of Mr. Thomas Clapham, his aunt Mary
Brown, and his nephew Robert Haselar, but the bulk of his freehold estate to trustees for the use
of his natural son Thomas Tufnell alias Austin. The residue of his estate he bequeathed to his
wife Rebecca.
4 The Funeral Book gives her name as "Alderson," and says that she died 10 Mch., aged
seventy. She was probably the wife of Shadrach Alderson, one of the almsmen (see his burial
23 Oct. 1744).

of Sir George Sondes, of Lecs Court, Kent, Bart., who was created Earl of Feversham 8 Apl. 1676,
and succeeded to that title, under the patent, on the death of his father-in-law in 1677. He was
Master of the Hospital of St. Catharine, near the Tower of London. He died 8 Apl. 1709, and
was buried on the 28th in the vault of the French Chapel in the Savoy. His will, dated 18 July
1701, with a codicil 6 Apl. 1709, was proved 3 May 1709, by George Sayer, of St. Clement Dancs,

¹ The Funeral Book says that he died 25 June, aged sixty-three, and was buried in his
wife's grave (see her burial 24 Sep. 1734). In the newspapers of the day he was called
Captain." He remarried, as his will, dated 5 Mch. 1740-1, was proved 28 June 1742, by
his relict Anne, to whom he left all his estate, and who alone is named in it. He had, how-
ever, a daughter by his first wife, named Frances, who was mentioned in the will of her uncle
Nathaniel Smith (see his burial 1 Oct. 1755).
2 He died, according to the Funeral Book, 22 Aug., aged eighty-two. The journals of the
day described him as an old experienced officer, and Colonel of a regiment of foot in Ireland.
He was called an Ensign in the record of the burial of his son Andrew, at Chiswick, Midx.,
7 July 1702, and attained the rank of Lieut.-General 27 Oct. 1735. His dau. Constance was
baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 8 July 1705, and his wife Constance was buried there

Bart., to whom he left all his estate, real and personal, with remainder to her infant son Andrew
Innes, his godson, and, failing his issue, to her other sons in succession. [Sir Robert Innes, fifth

3 Reimerd, only son of Reimerd Watkins (see his burial 7 Sep. 1719), by Mary his wife (see
her burial 1 Nov. 1743). He married, about 11 Mch. 1726-7 (Mar. Lic. Fac.), Anne Faussett, of
St. Dunstan in the West, London, spinster, whom he survived. He was admitted to Gray's Inn
27 May 1727, as of St. Andrew's, Holborn, Gent. He died, according to the Funeral Book,
2 Oct., aged forty-two, and his mother administered to his estate 4 Nov. following. See the
burials, of his sisters 7 Sep. 1738 and 13 Sep. 1751, and of his son 30 July 1770.
• The Funeral Book says that she died 8 Oct., aged forty-eight. From the place of her burial
it is evident that she occupied some humble position.
5 According to the Funeral Book, she died 31 Oct., aged forty-nine. Her will as Ann
Smyth, late of Berkeley Square, and now of Chelsea, co. Midx., wife of Ralph Smyth, Esq.," dated
19 June 1742, and made with the consent of her husband, with codicils 4 Aug. and 21 Sep.
following, was proved 2 Nov. in the same year, by William, Earl of Bath, George Wilson,
of Symond's Inn, Gent., and Alexander Small, of York Buildings, St. Martin in the Fields,
surgeon. She bequeathed to her brother Thomas Smyth £3000, to Mary, wife of Charles Smyth,
£50, sums varying from £10 to £200 to several friends and servants, and to the first two of her
executors £500 each. To said Alexander Small she gave £12,000, and made him her residuary
legatee (see his burial 15 Apl. 1752). The estate left to her in trust by the late Henry, Earl of
Bradford (see his burial 20 Jan. 1734-5) was to go, as he directed, to the benefit of her
illegitimate son by the said Earl, formerly called John Harrison, but who had changed his name
to Newport, and was then a lunatic (see his burial 9 May 1783). Some little light may be
thrown upon her history by a marriage allegation in the Bishop of London's Registry, dated
26 June 1704, in which the parties were described as Ralph Smyth, Esq., bachelor, aged twenty-
six, and Mrs. Anne Smyth, spinster, aged "about thirteen," with the consent of her mother
Mrs. Margaret Smyth, widow, all of St. James, Westminster. The marriage was probably one of
family convenience, and, if her age was correctly given on her coffin-plate, she could have
been only about eleven years of age, instead of thirteen.

* One of those distinguished commanders whose career added fresh glory to the British
navy, but whom, their family history and antecedents being unknown, because uninvestigated, it
has been customary to relegate to an origin obscure if not humiliating. No part of the Editor's
labours has been more gratifying than that of rescuing Sir Charles Wager's ancestors from the
oblivion to which they had been consigned. Whatever may have been their social position at
an earlier period, the Admiral's father. Charles Wager, was a naval officer of high standing, and at
his death Commander of one of His Majesty's frigates. He appears to have been the son of another
sailor, whether commercial or naval is not certain, John Wager, of St. Margaret's, near Rochester,
co. Kent, who died on the high seas, and to whose estate his relict Elizabeth administered
23 July 1656. Charles Wager, the elder, born about 1630, was appointed to the command of the
"Yarmouth" in 1660, and promoted to the "Crown" in 1664. He died at Deal, co. Kent,
24 Feb. 1665-6. His will, as Charles Wager, of the liberties of the Tower of London, Gentleman,
Commander of His Majesty's ship or frigate called the "Crown,” dated 13 Aug. 1664, was
proved 26 Mch. 1666, by his relict Prudence, to whom he bequeathed his entire estate. On the
29th of Jan. 1662-3, he had a license from the Faculty Office, as Charles Wager, of the city of
Rochester, bachelor, aged thirty-two, to marry Prudence, dau. of William Goodson, of Ratcliffe,
co. Midx., Gentleman, a spinster, aged twenty-two. They had two children, viz., the Admiral,
and Prudence, whose son, Charles Bolton, was the admiral's heir. Their mother remarried
Alexander Parker, a merchant of London, by whom she had two sons and four daughters. Of the
latter, one married Rev. Dr. John Watson, and was mother of Admiral Charles Watson, who
died in 1757: another married Rev. Dr. Peter Allix, Dean of Ely, and a third became the wife of
Rev. Dr. George Stanhope, Dean of Canterbury. It will be seen, therefore, that there was
nothing to be ashamed of, and no occasion for reticence, concerning the antecedents or contem-
poraneous relations of the admiral. He was born, if his age was correctly given on his monument,
about 1666, and was possibly a posthumous child. At the date of his marriage license, 8 Dec.
1691, his age was stated to be twenty-five, which would also establish his birth in 1666. He
attained his captaincy 7 June 1692, became Rear-Admiral of the Blue in 1707, and of the Red in
1709, and was knighted 8 Dec. in the latter year, for his gallantry in the West Indies. He
subsequently attained the rank of Admiral of the White, became a lord of the Admiralty, and
finally Treasurer of the Navy. He died, according to his monument, 24 May, aged seventy-

His will, dated 8 May 1743, was proved on the 25th of the same month, by his relict
Dame Martha (see her burial 12 Apl. 1748). He bequeathed to his sister Mary Parker £100 per
annum for life, and to his nicce Martha Watson £1000 at her marriage, leaving the residue of
his personalty to his wife. Having no issue, his nephew Charles Bolton, as the son of his only
sister of the full blood, inherited his real estate as next heir. It has been said that he was
educated a Quaker, and the statement has probably grown out of the fact that his stepfather, and
apparently his grandfather Goodson, were members of that community. Le Neve, in one of his
MSS., says, with his usual recklessness, that he married the dau. of Sir Neal O'Neal, who was
killed at the battle of the Boyne, and that she died in Apl. 1720; but in his own marriage
allegation, in 1691, he was sworn to be a bachelor, and the wife he then married survived him.

the celebrated music publisher near the Inner Temple gate, whom she survived. She died,
according to the Funeral Book and her monument. 29 June, aged seventy-two. Her will, dated
31 Mch. 1743, was proved 14 July following, by her son-in-law Rev. Thomas Fitzgerald (see the
burial of his wife, her dau., 18 Jan. 1739-40), and Walter Baynes, junior, of the Middle Temple, Esq.,
trustees for her grandchild Anne Fitzgerald, to whom she left the most of her estate. She
bequeathed considerable legacies to her cousins John Blyth, Edmund Blyth, Elizabeth Blyth,
Christian Blyth, widow, and her son John; her nephew Thomas Ludford (see his burial 9 Mch.
1776), and his wife (see her burial 18 May 1748); and her nicce Anne Bold. See the burials of

The distinguished military commander and statesman, John Campbell, eldest son of
Archibald, first Duke of Argyll, by Elizabeth dau. of Sir Lionel Tollemache, third Bart. of
Helmingham, co. Suffolk. He succceded as second Duke of Argyll 28 Sep. 1703, and was
created, 29 Nov. 1705, Baron Chatham and Earl of Greenwich, in the English peerage, and,
27 Apl. 1719, Duke of Greenwich. According to the Funeral Book and his monument, he was

name at Dudleston, in Shropshire. He entered the navy at an early age, and attained his
captaincy 16 Nov. 1689. He was knighted 24 Oct. 1704, for his gallantry in the battle off
Malaga against the French, being then Commander of the "St. George." He subsequently

Giles in the Fields, Midx., 6 May 1717, Mrs. Alice Breton, who died suddenly, at Greenwich,
2 Oct. 1723. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 23 Dec., aged seventy-nine. His will,

Mary Butters, of Gravesend, by me." This son, afterwards known as Capt. Kane-William
Horneck only, died in 1752, leaving a son and two daughters. The latter were immortalized by
Goldsmith as "Jessamy Bride" and "Little Comedy.'

sufficiently indicates his humble position.
2 James Butler, eldest surviving son of Thomas, Earl of Ossory (see his burial 31 July 1680),

1715, and attainted. He passed the rest of his life abroad, chiefly at Avignon, in France, and
died, according to the Funeral Book, quoting his coffin-plate, 5 Nov. 1745 (probably old style, as
the date usually given is 16 Nov.), in his eighty-third year. He married, first, Lady Anne Hyde,
dau. of Lawrence, first Earl of Rochester, who died at Dublin, Jan. 1684-5. See the burials of his

Midx., 15 July 1686. He was M.P. for Fowey, and died unmarried 17 July, according to the
Funeral Book, aged sixty. His will, dated 28 June 1746, was proved 29 July following, by his
brother Tomkyns Wardour, Esq. (see his burial 22 Feb. 1752), to whom he left all his estate,
subject to a few legacies to his "cousins," viz., John Wardour, of the Excise Office, and his dau.
Virtue Wardour; Mrs. Margaret Pitches; Mrs. Jane Gillmore, widow; Mrs. Silet Dew, widow,
and her son Tomkyns Dew; and Mrs. Mary Fleetwood, spinster.
4 Youngest dau. of Thomas Colleton, of Barbados, Esq. (second son of Sir John Colleton, first
Bart.), and relict of Col. Thomas Garth (see his burial 11 Jan. 1730-1). She died, according to
the Funeral Book, 24 July, aged sixty-eight. Her will, dated 12 Sep. 1745, was proved 19 Aug.
1746, by her son John Garth, to whom she bequeathed £5000 for the benefit of his younger
children, and made him her residuary legatee. To her grand-daughter Anne, wife of Daniel
Boone, Esq., she gave the interest of £1700 for life, the principal to go to her children at her
death. See the burials of her sons, 31 May 1714 and 28 July 1746 (the entry following that of
her own).
5 Son of Col. Thomas Garth (see his burial 11 Jan. 1730-1), by Elizabeth his wife (see her
burial in the preceding entry). He was their second son of this name (see his brother's burial
31 May 1714). The Funeral Book says: "Son of the last mentioned Elizabeth Garth: died
October 10th, 1734, in the sixth year of his age, and was buried in Godstone, in Surrey,
and afterwards removed from thence and deposited, July 28th, 1746, in the same grave
with his mother." According to the parish register of Godstone, he was buried there 14 Oct.
1734.
• According to the Chapter Book, he was appointed Under-Surveyor 12 June 1733, and
Surveyor to the College 29 May 1746. The Funeral Book says that he died 12 Aug., aged fifty-
seven. His will, as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, Gent., dated 10 Feb. 1743-4, was
proved 19 Aug. 1746, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by his relict Hannah, residuary
legatee. He left small legacies to his mother Joan Hinton, his brother Hercules Hinton, and
his sisters, Mary Hinton, Elizabeth Tarver, and Jane, wife of Thomas Chase.

name) was buried at Greenwich, Kent, 14 Sep. 1735. His will, dated 21 Oct. 1745, was proved
19 Sep. 1746, by his relict Elizabeth (see her burial 22 Nov. 1750). He bequeathed to his sister
Susanna Stagg £100, and a silver tankard formerly belonging to his aunt Hawkins, and smaller
legacies to his sister-in-law Mrs. Dorothy Bowers, and his nephew John, son of his brother
Samuel Stagg.
The surname in the Register is an error. In the Funeral Book it is Kelynge, with a sub-
sequent reference to the burial of John Kelynge, Esq., 9 July 1753 (which see), who was her son.
She was the first wife of William Kelynge, of the Inner Temple, Esq. (evidently the well-known
reporter of law cases in the reign of K. George II.), who was buried at St. Margaret's, West-
minster, 7 July 1774. He mentioned her in his will, dated 24 Dec. 1773 and proved 14 July 1774,
as the daughter of Michael Hickie, Esq., deceased, certain of whose estates in Ireland had come
to him through her. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 8 Nov., aged forty-seven. Her
husband married, secondly, according to his will, Jane, dau. of John Pace, of Coleman Street,
London, and Elizabeth his wife, who survived him and remarried Charles Matthews. He appears
to have had no other issue, and bequeathed all his estate to the only child of his son John, viz.,
Louisa, then the wife of Mr. Henry Perfect, junior.
2 Second wife of John Ilsley, College beadle (see his burial 28 June 1750). He had a
license from the Faculty Office, 16 Apl. 1733, then a widower (see his first wife's burial 14 Mch.
1732-3, only a month previous), to marry Margaret Owen, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, widow.
It is possible, however, that the marriage did not take place immediately. as her first child,
Margaret, was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 1 Aug. 1734. She died, according to the
Funeral Book, 19 Nov., aged forty-five. Sec her son's burial 9 June 1738.
3 Relict of Edward Ayres (see his burial 2 May 1744). She died, according to the Funeral
Book, 28 Jan., aged sixty-seven, and was buried in her husband's grave. See a burial 6 Feb.
1729-30.
4 The Funeral Book says that she died 7 Apl., aged fifty-six. Her will, as of St. John the
Evangelist, Westminster, widow, dated the day before her death, was proved on the sixth of the
same month, by her niece Ann Burges, spinster. She left legacies to her sister Frances Hawkins
and her niece Mary Hawkins. She was a sister of James Burges, one of the bell-ringers (see his
wife's burial 28 Oct. 1728), and proved his will 15 Mch. 1732-3, being then a widow.
5 The Funeral Book says that he died 30 May, aged twenty-seven. See a burial, perhaps of
his brother, 15 Jan. 1732-3.-Letters of administration to the estate of James Collier, of the
Middle Temple, Esq., bachelor, were granted, 21 May 1753. to his father, John Collier, Esq., and,
26 Feb. 1754, letters were granted to James Collier, nephew and next of kin of John Collier, of
Kensington, Midx., deceased, the relict Hannah having died before administering.
6 Dau. of Mrs. Elizabeth Ebbutt (see her burial 16 Mch. 1752), and second wife of Rev.
Dr. John Heylyn, Prebendary of Westminster (sce his burial 17 Aug. 1759). She died, according
to the Funeral Book, 9 June, aged forty-eight. See her daughter's burial 2 Apl. 1759.
7 One of the Abbey choir. He was sworn a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal 10 May 1743.
He died, according to the Funeral Book, 15 June, aged thirty-two. His mother, Sarah
Richardson, widow, administered to his estate 27 July following, when he was described as of
New Windsor, Berks, a bachelor. He probably died at Windsor, while in attendance at the
royal chapel there.

25 Aug., aged eighty-seven. Her will, as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, dated 8 Apl.

certain apparel to her niece Mary, wife of Mordaunt Cracherode, Esq. (see her burial 3 Jan. 1785),
she bequeathed all her estate to her grand-daughter Cornelia, wife of William Percival, Esq., for
life, with remainder to William and Richard Percival her sons. See the marriage of her dau.

4 The Funeral Book says that she died 1 Sep., aged sixty-three. Her monument states that
she was a dau. of Robert Walsh, of the Walsh mountains, in Ireland, Esq., that she was born in
Ireland in 1684, and that she and her sister Margaret Daly were the only coheiresses of
Edmund Sheffield, late Duke of Buckinghamshire and Normanby." On his death, without issue
(see his burial 31 Jan. 1735-6), the family estates reverted to the descendants of his great-great
aunt, dau. of Edmund, first Earl of Mulgrave, who married Walter Walsh, of Castle Hoel, in
Ireland, Esq., through whom they appear to have descended to the two sisters named on the
monument. Her will, as of Gloucester Street, St. George the Martyr, Midx., spinster, dated
25 Aug. 1747, was proved 30 Apl. 1748, by George Fitzgerald, of London, merchant, and, 14 Feb.
1748-9, by her sister Margaret Daly, widow. She left numerous bequests, varying from £10 to
£1000, to friends and servants, but, besides her said sister Margaret Daly, to whom she left all
her real estate, and the residue of her personalty, the only relations she named were her cousin
Lettice Grace, widow of John Grace, Esq., and her children.
5 His will, as "Antonio Lucera, otherwise Abraham-De Jacob Lucera" (so signed, and in
the margin is added "otherwise Abraham Mora"), dated 15 June 1736, was proved 16 Sep. 1747,
by his relict “Jane Lucera, otherwise Jency Lucera, otherwise Jency Chanell," by which names
he had described her in the will, to whom he left all his estate, she bringing up their dau.
"Stella otherwise Ister Lucera," and, if she died before her mother, then two-thirds were to go
to the heirs of Giusepe-Maria Gustigiano, of Genoa. An affidavit to his writing described him
as of St. James, Westminster, merchant. The probate of this will was subsequently declared
void, and another will, in which he described himself as of Air Street, Piccadilly, dated 1 June
1743, was proved 12 Nov. 1747, by his relict Jane, and his dau. Esther Lucera, to whom he left
his estate equally, and cither to be the other's heir. He then described his wife as "Jane
Lucera, before called Jane Cianell, whom I married in 1721 in foreign countries" (see her burial
5 Mch. 1755), and his dau. Esther as then about sixteen years old (see her burial, as Esther

1747 Oct. 16 The Hon. Lieut.-General Guest :¹ in the East Cloister.
Nov. 18 Humphrey Whyrley, Esq. :2 in the North aisle.
1 Another of the distinguished military officers of the period whose origin was so obscure
that his biographers could safely draw upon their inventive faculties when describing him. The
common account is that he commenced life as a hostler at Boroughbridge, in Yorkshire.
According to his age as given on his monument, he must have entered the army in 1685, at the
age of twenty-three, as the inscription states that he "closed a service of sixty years by faithfully
defending Edinburgh Castle against the rebels in 1745," and that he died 14 Oct. 1747, aged
eighty-five. He attained the rank of Lieut.-General 27 May 1745. Among the doubtful stories
related of him is one to the effect that he was offered £200,000 by the Pretender if he would
surrender Edinburgh Castle, and indignantly refused the proffered bribe, which may or may not
be true. That he was a brave, gallant, and loyal soldier, unquestionably very humble as his
origin was, no one can deny. His will, as Licut.-General Joshua Guest, dated 22 May 1746, was
proved 26 Oct. 1747, by his relict Sarah (see her burial 23 July 1751), to whom he left his entire
estate, and who alone is named in it. She, however, in her will, left considerable legacies to two
of his relations, viz., to his niece Sarah, wife of Mr. John Whitley, of "Bustoll" [? Birstal],
co. York, £2000, and to the children and grandchildren of his late aunt Mrs. Gibson, of the West
Riding of Yorkshire, £300.
From the results of researches kindly made and communicated to the Editor by friends in
Yorkshire, there scems no reason any longer to leave the parentage of the General in obscurity.
Of his father no trace whatever can be found, but it seems impossible to escape the conclusion
that his mother was Mary Guest, dau. of Samuel Guest and Mary his wife, of North Owram, who
was baptized at Halifax, Yorkshire, in April 1640. Her parents, as Samuel Guest and Mary
Greenwood, appear to have been married at Halifax in February preceding. She eventually married
a Mr. Smith, by whom she had a son Joshua Smith. The inscription on her tombstone in the
churchyard of Lightcliffe, near Halifax, reads thus: "Here lies the body of Mary, the mother of
Colonel Guest, of Lydgate in Lightcliffe, who departed this life the 10th day of September, 1729,
aged 88 years: also of Joshua, ye son of the abovesaid, died August 1750, aged 63: Mary, his
wife, died August, 1761, aged 63: also of Sammy, son of Joshua Smith, died July, 1777, aged 42."
The corresponding entries in the parish register of Lightcliffe identify the first two persons
named as "Mary Smith, widow," and "Joshua Smith, of Hove Edge." As Mary Smith could
have been the mother of General (then Colonel) Guest only as "Mary Guest," it follows con-
clusively that she must have married some one of her own name before she married Mr. Smith,
who was the father of the General, or else that the General was born before she was married at
all; and, as it has been impossible to find any evidence of the former, the latter seems to be the
safest theory to adopt. That there can be no doubt of the General's intimate connection with
this particular family of Smith, it is only necessary to state that his widow, in her will, and
evidently carrying out the instructions of her husband, bequeathed her freehold farms, lands,
tenements, etc., at "Cassley
Cassley" in the West Riding of Yorkshire, to "Mr. Joshua Smith, of
Lightcliffe, near Halifax," undoubtedly the one who died in 1750, whose name appears on the
tombstone, with remainder to his eldest son John, and his other sons and their heirs male in
succession, besides leaving £500 to said John Smith, the eldest son, and £1000 among the other
children of said Joshua Smith. On inquiry, it appears that Sammy Smith, named on the
monument, who died in 1777, in whose possession this property then was, by his will directed
that it should be sold, and the proceeds invested for the use of his poor relations. Probably it
was a pardonable pride that induced Mr. Joshua Smith to have recorded on his mother's tomb-
stone that she was the mother of the already distinguished Colonel Guest; but it is also fair and
reasonable to presume that Colonel Guest himself would have seen that his father's name was
similarly honoured, if it had been possible to place his name in conjunction with hers.
2 The Funeral Book gives his name correctly, as Wyrley, and says that he died 2 Nov., aged
thirty-nine, which is incorrect, as he was very nearly forty-one. He was the eldest son of Rev.
Peter Birch, D.D. (see his burial 4 July 1710), by his third wife, Sibyll, dau. and coheir of
Humphrey Wyrley, of Hampstead Hall, co. Stafford, Esq. (see her burial 12 Aug. 1708). He was
born the 5th, and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 16 Dec. 1706, by the double names of
Humphrey-Wyrley. As Humphrey-Wyrley Birch he matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church,

cerning his father's will, described as " Humphrey-Wyrley Wyrley alias Birch," but he appears
to have been known, and to have signed his name, in after life, as "Humphrey Wyrley" only.
He died unmarried. The journals of the day give the date of his death as the 13th, instead of
the 2nd of November, probably using the modern instead of the old style.
1 The second wife and widow of Nicholas Rowe, poct-laureate. She was a gentlewoman
whose ancestry and ultimate fate, except that she was of a good family named Devenish, in
Dorsetshire, and remarried "Colonel Deane," appear to have baffled the biographers and anno-
tators of her first husband and his writings. She was the dau., and apparently only surviving
child, by his first wife, of Joseph Devenish, Gent. (third son of Francis Devenish, of Gillingham,
co. Dorset, Gent., by Anne his wife), who was buried at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, Midx., 7 Oct.
1733, and whose will she proved on the 10th of that month. She married, first, as early as 1717,
as her only dau. was born before 1 July in the following year, Nicholas Rowe, Esq. (sec his burial
19 Dec. 1718), to whom she was second wife. She married, secondly, at St. Margaret's, West-
minster, 31 Jan. 1723-4, Col. Alexander Deanes, who was buried at St. James, Westminster,
7 Nov. 1731. His will, as of Arlington Street, St. George's, Hanover Square, Midx., Esq., dated
8 Oct. 1731, was proved by her 13 Jan. 1731-2, she being his sole legatee. If, as is asserted by
the editor of Johnson's Lives of the Poets (edit. 1854, ii. 113), she was the "widow " of Pope's
"Dialogue II.," published in 1738, an admirable illustration is furnished of the manner in which
that poet nursed his wrath, for her second marriage had taken place fourteen years before, and
her second husband had been dead half that period, quite long enough to have been forgotten.
She died, according to the Funeral Book, 6 Dec., aged sixty-five. Her will, as of Bruton Street,
St. George's, Hanover Square, dated 20 Aug. 1747, was proved 20 Jan. 1747-8. Owing to some
extraordinary fatality among her father's brothers and their issue, she had come into the possession
of the manors of Buckhorn-Weston and Lydlinch, in co. Dorset, and other lands in that county
and in co. Somerset, all of which she bequeathed in trust for her grand-daughter Charlotte Fane
(see the burial of her mother 7 Oct. 1739, and note thereto). Her house in Bruton Street, with
its contents, and an annuity of £100, she left to Sarah Peele, spinster, whom she called her
"sister," but who was evidently, from her father's will, the only dau. of his second wife and
relict, by a former husband. She mentioned no other relations, and appears to have been the
last survivor of her family, although her grandfather, at his death in 1689, left surviving no fewer
than five sons and two daughters.
2 The Funeral Book says that he died 28 Dec., aged eleven years.
3 Distinguished not only as a gallant soldier and brilliant commander, but especially for the
military roads which he constructed through the highlands of Scotland. He entered the army
as a cornet of dragoons 25 Dec. 1690, and attained the rank of Field-Marshal 14 Dec. 1743, and
that of Commander-in-Chief in Mch. 1745. He appears to have been the third son of William
Wade, a major of dragoons in the army of Cromwell, who is said to have married a dau. of Rev.
Henry Stonestreet, Rector of South Heighton, co Sussex. His elder brother, Rev. William Wade,
was a Canon of Windsor, and died 1 Feb. 1732-3. He died, according to the Funeral Book and
his monument, 14 Mch., aged seventy-five. He died unmarried, and his will, dated 1 June 1747,
was proved 24 Mch. 1747-8, by his illegitimate sons, Capt. George Wade and Capt. John Wade,
to whom, with his illegitimate dau. Mrs. Jane Erle, he left the most of his estate, although pro-
viding generously for the widow and children of his brother William.
4 According to the Chapter Book, he was appointed one of the sacrists 11 Feb. 1728-9. He
died, according to the Funeral Book, 8 Apl., aged forty-six. Letters of administration to his

1 Younger dau. of Anthony Earning, of Limehouse, Midx., mariner, evidently a captain in
the merchant service, who died in 1674, by Ellen, sister of Nehemiah Bourne, of London,
merchant, sometime a commissioner of the navy, who survived her husband, and relict of Admiral
Sir Charles Wager (see his burial 30 May 1743), to whom married about 8 Dec. 1691 (Mar. Lic.
Fac.). She died, according to her coffin-plate, 7 Apl., in her eighty-third year. Her will, dated
20 Feb. 1747-8, with a codicil 18 Mch. following, was proved 16 Apl. 1748. Her bequests, which
were considerable, were chiefly to the children of her husband's sister and half-sisters. Her
executor was Francis Gashrey, Esq., who had married the widow of Charles Bolton, her husband's
nephew.
2 The Funeral Book says that she died 11 Apl., in her fortieth year, and she was described
on her gravestone as the wife of Rev. Henry Evans, A.M. Her will, as "wife of Henry Evans,
of Garden Row, in Chelsea, co. Midx., Clerk," dated 13 Nov. 1745, was proved by him 16 Apl.
1748. She merely bequeathed to him, in case she left no issue, £3000 South Sea annuities named
in her marriage settlement. He appears to have been sworn a priest in ordinary of the Chapel
Royal, 13 Mch. 1743-4.
3 Dau. of Sir Richard Lane, Kt. (see his burial 4 Apl. 1756), by Dame Sarah his wife (see

Only dau. of Rev. Edward Taylor, Rector of Finningley, co. Notts. by Rachel his wife (see
her burial 2 June 1740, and note thereto). She married, first, Thomas Bold, citizen and distiller
of London, of Thames Street, St. Michael Queenhithe, whose will, dated 1 Oct. 1727, was proved
19 Mch. 1727-8, by whom she had an only dau., Anne Bold, who appears to have been living at
the date of her step-father's will, 12 Jan. 1776, an inmate of Bethlehem Hospital. She married,
secondly, at St. John the Evangelist. Westminster, 29 May 1731, Thomas Ludford (formerly
Bracebridge), Esq. (see his burial 9 Mch. 1776), by whom she appears to have had only one son,
Edward-Taylor Ludford, who was living in 1743, but was not named in his father's will. She
died, according to the Funeral Book and her tombstone, 15 May, aged fifty.
5 The Funeral Book says that he died 20 May, aged seventy-seven. See the burial, probably
of his wife, 17 Feb. 1748-9.

6 According to the Chapter Book, he was appointed "Scholars' butler 23 June 1725, and at
his death was "College butler and brewer, and Clerk of the Works." He died, according to the
Funeral Book, 10 Aug., aged fifty-nine. His will, dated 12 May 1743, was proved 14 Sep. 1748.
He left his possessions among his children, William, Thomas, and Susanna. See his wife's burial
8 May 1743; the baptisms of his children, 20 April 1729, 17 Jan. 1730-1, 15 Apl. 1733, 7 Nov.

his brother 19 Dec. 1720.
7 The celebrated actress in the reigns of Kings Charles II. and James II. She is said to
have been a dau. of Justinian Bracegirdle, of co. Northampton, Esq., and to have been brought
up in the family of Thomas Betterton, the tragedian, with whom she was placed in her infancy.
She is usually said to have been born in 1674, but the Funeral Book says that she died 12 Sep.,
aged eighty-five, which would make her eleven years older. Her will, as of St. Clement Danes,

¹ Organ blower, according to the Funeral Book, which says that he died 14 Oct., aged fifty.
2 Second wife and relict of Francis Jeffreys, one of the bell-ringers (see his burial 20 Nov.
1744). She was appointed College laundress 23 Nov. 1744. She died, according to the Funeral
Book, 25 Oct., aged sixty-two. Her will, dated 23 Mch. 1746-7, was not proved until 31 Jan.
1754, and then in the Court of the Dean and Chapter. She bequeathed her diamond ring and
sundry china to the children of the Bishop of Rochester, and pictures, articles of plate, etc., to
several friends. To her niece Elizabeth Keys, then living with her (see her burial 21 Jan. 1754),
she left two freehold houses in Newent, near Gloucester, and £100 to trustees for her use till she
attained her majority. Other bequests were to her brother Joseph Stone, her niece Margaret,
wife of Mr. John Burchell, one of the yeomen of the guard, who was one of her executors, and
David Jeffreys (see his burial 29 July 1755), whom she called her "cousin," but who was

3 Dau. of Eleanor Clapham by her second husband (see the following entry, and note
thereto). She died, according to the Funeral Book, 15 Nov. 1724, aged nine years and eight
months. She was first buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 18 Nov. 1724, and her remains were

in her will.
4 She appears to have been the eldest dau. of Claydon Jolly, of West Deeping, co. Lincoln,
Gent., by Catharine his wife, and to have married, first, Christopher Clapham (son of Sheffield
Clapham, eldest surviving son of Sir Christopher Clapham, of Uffington, co. Lincoln, Kt.), heir
and administrator to his grandfather, who was living in London, in 1705, by whom she had
several children, all of whom evidently died young. She also appears to have married, secondly,
at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 31 Aug. 1712, another Christopher Clapham (probably her first
husband's cousin, only son of Christopher Clapham, second son of Sir Christopher Clapham
aforesaid), whom she also survived. In their marriage allegation, at the Bishop of London's
Registry, they are described as both of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., he a bachelor and she a
widow, and both aged about thirty. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 25 Oct., aged
seventy-six. Her will, dated 25 Aug. 1747, was proved 29 Oct. 1748, by her "friend and
companion" Mrs. Rose Turnall (see her burial 25 May 1750), whom she made her residuary
legatee. She directed to be buried in the Cloisters, and the body of her dau. to be removed and
buried with her (see the preceding entry and note). She mentioned her late nephew Mr. Jolly
Clapham, deceased, and her niece Judith Graham, but no other relations.
5 Evidently a child of Thomas Fisher, College cook (see his burial 30 July 1777), by Mary
his wife (see her burial 13 Nov. 1761). The Funeral Book says that she died 26 Oct., aged eleven
months and eight days.

that she died 14 Feb., aged sixty-seven.
7 The Funeral Book says that she died 12 Mch., aged sixty. Sce the burial, probably of her

his wife (see her burial 11 Jan. 1750-1). She married, about 10 Feb. 1745-6 (marriage settlement
cited in her mother's will), and was first wife of, her first cousin Richard Lambart, afterwards
sixth Earl of Cavan, but left no issue. She died, according to her monument, 11 May, aged

Castle, and Colonel of the King's Own regiment of foot, and as having served his country, with
great honour, upwards of fifty years, being engaged in most of the memorable actions and sieges
in Flanders and Germany during the whole of Q. Anne's wars. He attained the rank of Lieut.-
General 2 July 1739. The monument, erected by his only son and executor, Savage Barrell, Esq.,
was renovated in 1855 by his great-grandson, Captain Justinian Barrell, R.N. He died, according
to the Funeral Book, 8 Aug., aged seventy-seven. His will, dated 15 May 1739, with codicils
5 Apl. 1743 and 9 May 1746, was proved 10 Aug. 1749, by his said son Savage, residuary legatee.
To his wife Mary he left the use of his houses in York Buildings and in Croydon, co. Surrey, and
an annuity of £200 for life, giving her also £400 by the first codicil. To his dau. Ann, unmarried
at the date of his will, and then aged about thirty-one, he gave the dividends of £3400 South
Sea capital stock, but in the first codicil stated that she had married Captain Charles Rainsford,
and gave her £600, and in the second codicil £1000 more. His other bequests were to his niece
Anne Forster and her husband_Richard Forster, and their children William and Anne, his god-
children. The latter, as stated in the first codicil, having married Joseph Higginson, Lieut. and
Quartermaster in his regiment, he gave her £600.
3 The Funeral Book says that he died 20 Aug., aged sixty-four. Evidently, from the place
of burial, a servant, or minor official about the Abbey.
4 He was appointed one of the bell-ringers 14 Mch. 1745-6. He died, according to the
Funeral Book, 1 Sep., in his fifty-fourth year.

and sixteenth Earl of Hertford (not Marquis as in the text). He was created, 2 Oct. 1749,
Baron Warkworth and Earl of Northumberland, and, the next day, Baron Cockermouth and
Earl of Egremont. He died, at Percy Lodge, 7 Feb., without surviving male issue, and his
father's titles became extinct. See the burials, of his wife 20 July 1754, of his only son
6 July 1745, of his only dau. and heir 18 Dec. 1776, and of his brothers, 8 Jan. 1710-11 and

memory of her brother, to which she hoped his daughter would contribute.

as second Earl of Portsmouth. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 15 Apl., in her twenty-
ninth year, and was buried in her father's grave.

that she died 20 May, aged fifty-four. Her will as Rose Turnall, of St. Martin in the Fields,
Midx., spinster, dated 21 Apl. 1750, was proved 25 May following, by her " kinsman " Mr. Matthew

1742-3, the former having been the wife of Dr. Hunt, and being then wife of Joseph Cox, Esq.,
when the Duchess of Buckinghamshire, in her will, left her an annuity of £120 for life, in return
for her respectful behaviour to her and her deceased son, and for not taking part with the other
natural children of the Duke in their suits against her, etc. Mrs. Lambart's will, dated 30 Mch.
1748, was proved 10 Jan. 1750-1 by her dau. Castiliana-Ann Lambart (scc her burial 4 Nov. 1758),
to whom she left all her estate, except her best diamond ring and a picture of the Duke of
Buckingham, which she gave to her son Charles Sheffield, Esq. See the burial of her only other

1 William Hargrave. According to the Funeral Book and his monument, he was Colonel of
the Royal English Fusileers, and Governor of Gibraltar, and died 21 Jan., aged seventy-nine,
having been fifty-seven years a commissioned officer. He attained the rank of Lieut.-General
1 Feb. 1742-3. The journals of the day say that he died at Bath. He appears to have been
baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 26 Dec. 1672, as son of Captain William Hargrave and
Ann his wife. His will, dated at Gibraltar 29 June 1749, was proved 6 May 1751, by John
Fleming, Esq., whom he described only as a Captain in his regiment, but whom he made his
residuary legatee (see his burial 21 Feb. 1764). The will was not proved until after legal
proceedings between the executor, of one part, and Richard Hargrave, Esq., nephew by brother
and one of the next of kin of the testator, and Martha Rounds, then or late wife of William
Rounds, Ann Laurence, widow, Elizabeth Hargrave, spinster, and Charles Hargrave, nieces and
nephew by another brother and the four other next of kin of the testator, of the other part,
neither of whom was named in the will. He bequeathed to Mrs. Jane Hargrave, relict of his
"relation" John Hargrave. £2000, and to Richard Hargrave, brother to John Hargrave, a
lieutenant in Pulteney's regiment, £3000. His other bequests were as follows: to Mary Willett,
sister of Francis Willett, hosier, late in York Buildings, £300; to Elizabeth Redburn, formerly
his servant, £300; to Hannah Clenahan, dau. of Mr. Clenahan, town-major of Gibraltar, £500;

Colonel Adlaiorn, £500; to John Donaldson, captain in his regiment, £1000; and to the
Foundling Hospital £1000. He appears never to have been married. The journals of the
day announce the death, 16 Nov. 1763, of the "relict of the late General Hargrave;" but that lady
was Jane, widow of Major John Hargrave, chief engineer of the Island of Minorca, the same to
whom the General bequeathed £2000, as the relict of his "relation."

being Colonel of the 36th regiment of foot, and having served as a commissioned officer forty-four
years. He attained the rank of Major-General in Sep. 1747. The journals of the day say that
he died at Bath. His will, as "Colonel of one of H.M.'s regiments of foot late commanded by the
Hon. Col. Humphrey Bland," dated 6 Mch. 1741-2, was proved 22 Mch. 1750-1, by his nephew
John Fleming, Esq. (sec his burial 21 Feb. 1764), son of his brother Robert Fleming, whom he
also appointed an executor, but who died before him. He left handsome legacies to numerous
friends and brother officers, and to his own relations as follows: to his three brothers, Robert,
John, and Richard Fleming, cach £350; to his three sisters, Margaret Bennett, widow, Dorothy
Knott, widow, and Catharine, wife of Adam Guthrey, each £200; to his nephew Phibbs, son of

4 The celebrated clock and watch maker, and also distinguished for various mechanical

parish of Kirklinton, co. Cumberland, 7 July 1673, of parents who were members of the Society
of Friends, and was apprenticed in London, 2 July 1688, to Thomas Aske, clockmaker. He was

5 Third but second surviving son of Sir John Temple, Kt., by Jane, dau. of Sir Abraham
Yarner, of Dublin, Kt., and brother of Henry Temple, first Baron Temple and Viscount
Palmerston. He was baptized 28 Mch. 1680, and therefore aged about seventy-two at his death.

proved 22 Feb. 1752, by his relict Elizabeth (see her burial 9 May 1772). The peerages usually
state that he had eleven children, and that four daughters survived him; but, according to his
will, only one dau., Mary, was living at its date, and she appears to have been buried at St.
James, Westminster, 18 Apl. 1745. He evidently survived all his children, and directed that his
cstate should go, after his wife's death, to his nephews.

2 Son of John Wynyard, Esq. (see his first marriage 14 Aug. 1655, and note thereto), by Ann,
probably his third wife, and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 28 Mch. 1682. He was
sometime Colonel of a regiment of foot, and many years Commander-in-chief at Gibraltar and
Port Mahon, and attained the rank of Lieut.-General in Sep. 1747. The Funeral Book and his

The son William (who also became a Lieut.-General, and died Jan. 1789) administered to the

she appears to have been buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 6 Dec. 1776. The dau. Mary
married, 8 Aug. 1756, John West, second Earl Delawarr, and died 27 Oct. 1781. The unborn

Elizabeth. Queen Charlotte appointed her, 27 Jan. 1816, a sister of St. Katherine's Hospital, and
she died 17 Apl. 1832. On her monument in the Chapel in Regent's Park she is called Emily-
Elizabeth, and her age erroneously given as seventy-nine, she being in her eighty first year.
3 The Funeral Book says that she died in her seventy-seventh year. Letters of administra-
tion to her estate, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, widow, were granted. 9 Apl. 1752, to
Elizabeth Heylyn, spinster, her grand-daughter and next of kin (see her burial 2 Apl. 1759). She

master, the still more celebrated Bernard Schmidt. He was buried at St. Anne's, Westminster,
31 May 1751. Their son Christopher, who administered to his estate 4 Sep. 1754, succeeded to
his father's business, and died 16 Oct. 1763. See the burials of her other children, 3 June 1709,

describe him as formerly an eminent surgeon in York Buildings. See the note to the burial of
Mrs. Anne Smyth, 7 Nov. 1742, whose residuary legatec and executor he was. His will, as of

becoming heir to his kinsman Sir Robert Nightingale, fifth Bart. The Funeral Book, quoting his
coffin-plate, says that he was baptized 19 Dec. 1695, and died 16 July 1752, as in the text, but the
latter date is given on his monument as 20 July. The inscription contains other errors, due
probably to the fact that the monument was not erected until many years after, in obedience to
the will of his son, when accuracy was not obtained, even if sought. He died at Enfield. His
will, dated 25 Oct. 1731, shortly after the death of his wife, was proved 3 Aug. 1752, by his eldest

Funeral Book, 4 Nov., aged eighty-four, and was buried in his wife's grave (see her burial 22 Apl.
1742). The journals of the day say that he died at his house in Barton Street, Westminster,
from the effects of a broken leg, having fallen down an area of one of the houses then building
near Dean's Yard some three weeks before. His will, as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster,
Gent., dated 14 July, 1758, was proved 7 Nov. following, by his nephew Albert Davids, Esq., to
whom he left his closes in the borough of Carmarthen, and the residue of his personalty, with
remainder to his niece Mrs. Martha Baylis. His other bequests, varying from £100 to £500,
were to the widow of his brother Mr. Thomas Aubrey, his nephews George Oakley and Vincent
Oakley, and the children of his nephew Thomas Oakley.
¹ Wife of Mr. John Bancroft, doorkeeper to the House of Lords (see his burial 24 Mch. 1762).
The London Chronicle, of 9 Dec. 1758, says: "Yesterday died in Old Palace Yard, aged near
ninety, Mrs. Bancroft, Necessary-woman to the Right Hon. the House of Peers;" but the Funeral
Book and her monument say that she died 7 Dec., aged seventy-eight.
2 Only surviving child of Rev. Samuel Barton, D.D., Prebendary of Westminster (see his
burial 23 Aug. 1715), by his first wife, Sarah, dau. of Edward Trench, M.D., of All Hallows
Staining, London. She was born, according to her monument, 21 Oct. 1699. She married, after
her father's death, and before 14 Nov. 1732 (the date of her step-mother's will), her cousin John
Wowen, of Hackney, Midx., Esq. (see his burial 9 June 1760). She died, according to the
Funeral Book, 10 Dec., in her sixtieth year, and was buried in her father's grave.
3 Second wife and relict of Rev. Stephen Crespion (see his burial 2 Dec. 1711). She died,

the Evangelist, Westminster, 1 Feb. 1757. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 7 Jan.
5 Dau. of William Pearce, Esq. (see his burial 2 Jan. 1783), and niece of the Right Rev.
Zachary Pearce, then Bishop of Rochester and Dean of Westminster, at whose house, in Dean's
Yard, she died, according to the Funeral Book and her monument, 17 Jan., aged eighteen
years.
• He died, according to the Funeral Book, 4 Mch., in his thirty-third year, and was buried in
his wife's grave (see her burial 26 Aug. 1758). If the ages of both were correctly given in the
Funeral Book, which there is no good reason to doubt, he was about thirteen years his wife's
junior. He was one of the sons of John Lacam, of St. Clement Danes, Midx., jeweller, by
Louisa-Henrietta, dau. of Francis Beteilhe, of St. Anne's, Westminster, who had a license from
the Faculty Office, 13 Nov. 1723, to marry at the French Chapel in Hog Lane, Midx. His father's
will, dated 3 June 1748, was proved by his mother 7 July following. In an affidavit which he
then made, identifying his father's writing, he called himself "John Peter Lacam," but he
signed his own will "John Lacam" only. It was dated 14 Feb. 1759, with a codicil 20 Feb.,
and was proved 7 Mch. following, by his said mother (called "Henrietta" only), and his brother
Andrew Lacam. He directed to be buried in his wife's grave, and that "the large picture of
her, painted in enamel by Mr. Nathaniel Hone," should be laid on his breast. His bequests to his
relations were to his said mother; his brothers Andrew, Benjamin, Francis, and William
Lacam; and his sisters Priscilla Lacam and Henrietta Garbrand, and the two children of the

latter. He bequeathed numerous pictures, jewels, etc., to various friends, among whom were

of his "share of Covent Garden" for two years. His jeweller's tools he left to his brother
Benjamin Lacam. He called himself, in his will, of St. James, Westminster, and the journals of
the day, noticing his death, described him as of Pall Mall. He evidently left no issue.
1 Dau. of Rev. John Heylyu, D.D., Prebendary of Westminster (see his burial 17 Aug. in the
same year), and apparently his only child by Elizabeth his second wife (see her burial 13 June
1747). She died, according to the Funeral Book, 28 Mch., aged thirty-seven, and was buried in
her mother's grave. Her will, as of Hampstead, Midx., spinster, dated 1 May 1758, was proved
3 Apl. 1759, by her brother John Heylyn, afterwards their father's executor.
2 The illustrious Master of Music. He was born at Halle, in Saxony, 23 Feb. 1683-4, his
father being a physician of that place, and his mother his second wife. He died, at his house in
Brook Street, Grosvenor Square, according to the Funeral Book, 14 Apl., in his seventy-sixth
year. He signed his will "George Frideric Handel." It was dated 1 June 1750, and, with
several codicils, was proved 26 Apl. 1759, by George Amyand, Esq., whom he described as of
Laurence-Pountney Hill, London, merchant. His bequests to his relations were as follows: to his
cousin Christian-Gottlieb Handel, of Copenhagen, £100; to his cousin Magister Christian-August
Roth, of Halle, £100; to his cousin, the widow of George Tanst, pastor of Iibichenstein, near
Halle, in Saxony, £300, and to her six children each £200; and the residue of his estate to his
niece Johanna-Friderica Floerchen (born Michaelsen, in Halle), of Gotha, in Saxony, appointing
her sole executrix. By a codicil, dated 6 Aug. 1756, he gave his cousin Christian-Gottlieb
Handel £200 more, the surviving five children of the widow Tanst each £100 more, and the
widow of said Christian-August Roth £200, and appointed said George Amyand co-executor
with his niece. A codicil, dated 22 Mch. 1757, related exclusively to his servants. In another
codicil, dated 4 Aug. 1757, he stated that his said cousin Christian-Gottlieb Handel was dead,
and he therefore gave his sister Christiana-Susanna Handelin, at Goslar, and his sister living
at Pless, near Tesschen, in Silesia, each £300. In this codicil occurs this bequest: "I give a fair
copy of the score and all the parts of my Oratorio, called the Messiah, to the Foundling
Hospital;" and also the bequest to John Rich, Esq., of his "great organ that stands at the
Theatre Royal in Covent Garden." A further codicil, dated 11 April 1759, names no relations,
but gives considerable legacies to numerous friends, servants, etc., and one of £1000 to the
Society for the support of decayed musicians. He directed that a monument should be erected
to his memory in the Abbey, at a cost of not exceeding £600.
3 Only surviving son of Leoline Davies, of Clunfyn, in the parish of Manordcifi, co. Pembroke,
Gent., by Anne his wife, who, after a union of about fifty-two years, both died in the month of
April 1747, he the 10th and she the 13th, each aged about eighty years, and were buried the 14th
in the church of that parish, where he erected a monument to their memory. He was appointed
Receiver-General of the Abbey 31 Oct. 1729, and is said, by the journals of the day, to have been
also connected with the Augmentation Office. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 24 Apl.,
in his sixtieth year. His will, dated 27 Jan. 1756, was proved 21 May 1759, by his relict Mary
(see her burial 11 May 1778). He bequeathed £1000 each to his eldest dau. Anne (see her
baptism 14 Sep. 1736, and her burial 2 Apl. 1791) and his second dau. Mary (see her baptism
13 Jan. 1739-40, and her burial 6 Feb. 1786), and, if both should die without issue, then his three
sisters, Esther Harries, Lettice Bowen, and Sarah Thomas, then or lately living at Clunfyn
aforesaid. were each to have £500. The residue of his estate he gave to his wife.
Wife of Thomas Wright, one of the bell-ringers (see his burial 29 May 1762). She died,
according to the Funeral Book, 1 June, aged forty-eight. See the baptisms of her children,

merchant, citizen and haberdasher of London, to whom she was second wife. She died, according
to the Funeral Book, 4 Aug., aged forty-two, and, according to the journals of the day, at her
husband's house in Manor Street, Chelsea. His will, dated 11 Oct. 1749, was proved 29 July

churchyard of Edmonton, Midx. They left no issue.
3 Eldest son of John Heylyn, citizen and saddler of London, who died at Chelsea, Midx.,
24 Sep. 1736, and was buried the 27th at St. Mary-le-Strand, Westminster (he was said, by the
journals of the day, to have acquired a large fortune by army contracts), by his wife, Susanna
Sherman (sister of Thomas Sherman, of St. Andrew's, Holborn, Midx., Gent.), whose will, dated
21 Oct. 1741, was proved 19 Dec. following. He was admitted into St. Peter's College, West-
minster, in 1700, and clected to Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1705, where A.B. 1708, A.M. 1714,
and S.T.P. 25 Apl. 1728. He became the first Rector of St. Mary-le-Strand, 1 Jan. 1723-4, and
held that living until his death. He was a Prebendary of St. Paul's in Oct. 1736, and was installed
Prebendary of Westminster 21 Mch. 1742-3. He died, according to the Funeral Book and his
monument, 11 Aug., aged seventy-four, and was buried with his second wife and only daughter
by her (see their burials, 13 June 1747 and 2 Apl. 1759). His will, as of Hampstead. Midx., dated
28 Mch. 1759, was proved on the day of his burial, by his son John Heylyn, then of the city of
Bristol, merchant (evidently his only surviving child), and by Balthazar Burman, of Lincoln's
Inn, whom he called his cousin, and to whom he gave £200. His only other relations named
were the sons and daughters of his brother Edward Heylyn, to each of whom he gave £200.
He bequeathed £1000 to the Lying-in Hospital in Brownlow Street, and the residue of his real
and personal estate to his said son John, who was apparently his eldest son by his first wife,
and was baptized at Chiswick, Midx., 10 July 1712. Another son by her, named Charles-Master,
was baptized at Chiswick 10 July 1714, who appears to have died young.

1751), by the Princess Augusta (see her burial 15 Feb. 1772). According to the parish register

and was baptized 24 Jan. following, by the Lord Bishop of Oxford (afterwards Archbishop
Secker), Rector of that parish. She died at Kew, Surrey, after an illness of two days. Walpole
says of her: "Her figure was so very unfortunate that it would have been difficult for her to be
happy; but her parts and application were extraordinary."

8 Dec. 1708. He assumed the surname of Williams in accordance with the will of his godfather
Charles Williams, of Caerleon, co. Monmouth, Esq. (see his burial 2 Sep. 1720). He was an
ambassador at various courts, and was installed a Knight of the Bath 20 Oct. 1744. He died,
according to his coffin-plate, 2 Nov., aged fifty. His will, as of Cold Brook (near Abergavenny),
co. Monmouth, dated 30 Jan. 1746-7, was proved 12 Nov. 1759, by his brother George Hanbury,
Esq. He left his estate in trust for his daughters Frances and Charlotte, and did not so much as
name his wife (see her burial 29 Dec. 1781).
¹ The Funeral Book says that he died 28 Nov., in his eighty-seventh year. See a burial
27 Jan. 1729-30.
2 She died, according to the Funeral Book, 28 Jan., aged eighty, and was buried under her
daughter, Mrs. Mary Illingworth (see her burial 12 June 1758). Her will, as of Queen Square,
Westminster, widow, dated 14 Dec. 1759, was proved 11 Mch. 1760, by her dau. Zenoby-Ann
Bowker, and by the Rev. Edward Woodcock, of Watford, Herts. The only relations she named
were her said daughter and her children, Elizabeth, Ann, and Maria Bowker; her cousin Mary
Rigby, of Cockermouth, co. Cumberland, and her dau. Mary Rigby; and her cousin Mr. William
Lightboun, of Twickenham, Midx., and Ann his wife. To her said dau. she left her estates in
Manchester, Blackley, etc., in co. Lancaster, and to Thomas, son of Thomas Illingworth, late
postmaster of Lancaster, deceased, ten shillings monthly for his life. Her estate appears to have
been considerable, and she provided liberally for several old servants.
3 He died, according to the Funeral Book, 9 Feb., aged sixty.-" On Saturday died Mr.
Griffith, master of the Bear Tavern at Westminster Bridge” (London Chronicle, Tuesday, 12 Feb.
1760).—Letters of administration to the estate of Hugh Griffith, of St. Margaret's, Westminster,

4 She died, according to the Funeral Book, 21 May, aged sixty-seven, and was buried on her
brother, Nathaniel Smith, Esq. (see his burial 1 Oct. 1755). Her will, as of St. John the
Evangelist, Westminster, spinster, dated 6 Oct. 1759, was proved 5 June 1760, by Frances, wife
of Francis Smalley, her niece and only next of kin. See the burials, of her other brother 12 Sep.
1738, and of her sister, Frances Meyrick, 24 Sep. 1734, near whom she directed to be buried.
•
5 The Funeral Book says "Master Foster March," and that he died 28 May, aged seventeen
years, adding "the undertaker from Clapham." It is quite probable that the name should be
Marsh. See a burial 28 Jan. 1812.
• The Funeral Book says that he died 1 June, in his seventy-third year, and was buried in
the grave of his wife, Mrs. Jane Wowen (see her burial 16 Dec. 1758). The journals of the day
call him “an eminent sugar refiner," and say that he died at Hackney, Midx. He was the appa-
rently only son of Rev. John Wowen, of Trinity College, Cambridge, who was silenced under the
Act of Uniformity in 1662, and who afterwards became minister of an Independent Chapel in
Deadman's Place, Southwark, co. Surrey, and finally of a congregation assembled in Pewterers'
Hall, Lime Street, London. Wilson, in his Dissenting Churches (iv. 143-7), appears to confound
him with another dissenting minister named "Jonathan Owen," who lived somewhat later. Mr.
Wowen was buried at St. John's, Hackney, 16 Nov. 1713. His wife, mother of the person named
in the text, was Elizabeth, dau. of Rev. John Barton, and sister of Rev. Samuel Barton, D.D., Preben-
dary of Westminster (see his burial 23 Aug. 1715), and was also buried at Hackney, 14 Sep. 1724.
Letters of administration to the estate of John Wowen, Esq., late of St. John's, Hackney, widower,
were granted, 16 June 1760, to his children, John Wowen, Esq., and Jane Wowen. They were his
only surviving issue by his marriage with his cousin Jane Barton, and both died before 17 Apl.
1812, when further letters of administration to his estate were granted. The dau. Jane was mar-
ried, at St. Andrew's, Holborn, Mdx., 12 Feb. 1763, to Paul Field, of Lincoln's Inn, Esq.

2 Lady Elizabeth-Annc-Frances Percy, only legitimate dau. of Hugh, first Duke of North-

She was born 6 Apl. 1744. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 27 May, in her eighteenth
year.
3 Her maiden name has not been ascertained. She was first the wife of a Mr. Jackson, who
died before 1754, by whom she had a son, Charles Jackson, Esq., who was long connected with
the General Post Office, and was living, as late as 1793, at Tooting, co. Surrey, aud a dau. Mary,
who married Dr. Benjamin Cooke, Organist of the Abbey (see her burial 26 Mch. 1784). Shc
married, secondly, at Greenwich, Kent, 26 May 1758, George Shelvocke, Esq., Secretary to the
General Post Office, who died suddenly, in one of the official apartments, 12 Mch. 1760. He was
a son of the celebrated Capt. George Shelvocke, who sailed round the world during the reign of
Q. Anne, and who died in 1743. In his will, dated 28 Apl. 1754, he described his wife as "my
loving cousin Mary Jackson, widow, now living with me." She died, according to her monu-
ment, 24 July, aged fifty-four, and the journals of the day say that she died at her house at
Knightsbridge, Midx. Her will, dated 28 June 1761, was proved 6 Aug. following, by her said
son Charles Jackson, Esq., and her said son-in-law Benjamin Cooke. The only other relation
she named was her kinsman William Roberts, one of the clerks of the Foreign Office in the
Geueral Post Office, to whom she bequeathed the interest of £1,000 for his life. The rest of her
estate she left to her said son and daughter equally.
4 Eldest son of William Blakeney, of Thomastown, co. Limerick, Esq., whose family
emigrated to Ireland, from co. Norfolk, in the sixteenth century. He became a distinguished
military officer, and attained the rank of Licut.-General in Sept. 1747. He is especially remem-
bered for his gallant defence of Stirling Castle in 1746, and of Fort St. Philip in 1756. He was
created a Knight of the Bath 27 Nov., in the latter year, and the next month raised to the
peerage of Ireland, as Baron Blakeney. He died, without issue, 20 Sep., aged ninety-one, and
the title became extinct. By his will, dated 4 Jan. 1759, and proved 7 Oct. 1761, he made his
brother Robert Blakency, of Mount Blakency, co. Limerick, his sole heir.
5 The Funeral Book, quoting his coffin-plate, gives the same initials, the first two being
placed over the last two, and adds that he died 18 Oct., aged forty-three. In another book
he is called "Kenneth Mackenzic, Esq.," with a statement that the fccs were paid by Henry
Dagge and John Mackenzie, Esquires. The journals of the day notice the peculiarity of his
coffin-plate. He was Kenneth Mackenzie, commonly called Lord Fortrose, only son of William,
fifth Earl of Scaforth in the peerage of Scotland, who was attainted on account of his connection
with the rising of 1715, by Mary, only dau. and heir of Nicholas Kennet, of Coxhow, co.

when the titles became extinct. Their youngest dau., Euphemia, married William Stewart, Esq.
(see the burial of their son 2 Nov. 1811). Lord Fortrose had been M.P. for co. Ross in 1747 and 1754.
1 Fourth and youngest son of Richard Walsh, of Ardagh House, co. Louth, Ireland, Esq., by
Mary, dau. of Rev. Joseph Bury, of Drogheda. After a long military career, he attained the rank
of Major-General 14 May 1759, and was Colonel of the 49th regiment of foot at his death. He
died, according to the Funeral Book, 23 Oct., in his seventy-third year. His name does not occur
in the lists of Lieutenant-Generals, although he was assigned that rank in the Abbey Register,
on his monument, and in the journals of the day. He called himself Major-General in his will,
which was dated 10 May 1760, and proved 31 Oct. 1761, so that, if advanced to the higher rank,
it must have been shortly before his death. He died unmarried, and named as his residuary
legatecs his five nieces, daughters of his late brother Anthony Walsh, of Ardagh, Esq., deceased,
and his kinsman and godson Blaney Townley, junior. To his nephews, Captain Anthony Walsh
and Captain Ralph Walsh, he left £20 each, for mourning, and mentioned no other relations

3 The Funeral Book calls him the famous Dr. Ward," and says that he died 21 Dec., aged
seventy-six. He was celebrated for his various chemical preparations, and became more so
from being satirized by Pope in his "Imitations of Horace." His will, as of Whitehall, dated
1 Mch. 1760, was proved 8 Jan. 1762, by Ralph and Thomas Ward, sons of his nephew Knox
Ward, whom he made his residuary legatees. His other bequests were to his sisters Margaret
Gancel and Ann Manly, Rebecca Ward, dau. of his said nephew Knox Ward, and his nephew
Colonel William Gancel.
4 Son of Thomas Persehowse, Esq. (see his burial 7 Jan. 1719-20), by his second wife, Mary,
dau. of William Style, of Beckenham, co. Kent, Esq. He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ
Church, 11 May 1702, aged sixteen, and was B.A. there 28 Mch. 1707, but appears to have taken
the degree of A.M. at Cambridge, in 1713. He became the minister at Knightsbridge Chapel,
Midx., in 1719, and is mentioned in the Chapter Book, as a minor canon of the Abbey, as early
as 9 Oct. 1724. He married Deborah, dau. of John Rawlins, of the city of Oxford, apothecary,
who appears to have died long before him. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 26 Jan., in
his seventy-seventh year, and was said, in the journals of the day, to have been at his death
senior minor canon and the oldest member of the Abbey Church. His will, dated 16 Feb. 1760,
in which he mentioned that he had been preserved through a life of seventy-five years, was proved
27 Jan. 1762, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by his son Clare Persehowse (see his burial
23 Aug. 1779), to whom he left all his estate. He mentioned no other relations, except his
disobedient daughter, who had twice married without his consent, and to whom his son was to
pay five shillings weekly, if it should become necessary, as he had no doubt it would. See the
burials of his other children, 22 Aug. 1712, 9 Oct. and 17 Nov. 1715, and 23 Apl. 1719.
5 He died, according to the Funeral Book, 17 Mch., aged seventy-eight, and was buried on
his wife (see her burial 10 Dec. 1758). The journals of the day describe him as one of the door-
keepers of the House of Lords, and as having formerly been a domestic servant of the first Duke
of Marlborough, whom he attended through all his campaigns. His will, as of St. Margaret's,
Westminster, Gent., dated 1 Jan. 1762, was proved 31 Mch. following, by Elizabeth Forth,
spinster, whom he called his servant, and to whom he gave all his stock in the Bank of England,

Blenheim, in 1704, by Elizabeth, dau. of Major Edward Gibbs, of the city of Gloucester. She
married, 14 Dec. 1717, Daniel Pulteney, Esq. (see his burial 17 May 1732, and note thercto).
She died, according to her coffin-plate, 22 Apl., aged sixty-four. See the burial of her only
surviving child 8 June 1782.
7 He died, according to the Funeral Book and his monument, 6 May, aged sixty-six. His
wife Ann appears to have been buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 5 Fcb. 1757, and the
baptisms of several of their children occur in the registers of that parish.
8 The Funeral Book says that he died the 14th, and was buried 19 May, aged fifty-nine.

eighty-four.
" He was appointed Chapter Clerk 11 Feb. 1728-9 (Chapter Book). The journals of the day
say that he had been also secretary to the Bishops of Peterborough and Gloucester, and Registrar
of the diocese of Llandaff. He had a grant of arms 6 Mch. 1731-2, when he was described as
eldest son and heir of Ralph Gell, who was the third son of Anthony Gell. The grant also
included the descendants of his uncle Thomas Gell. He died, according to the Funeral Book,
13 June, aged seventy-seven, and was buried on his first wife (see her burial 20 Oct. 1759). His
will, dated 24 Dec. 1762, with a codicil Apl. 1763, was proved 2 July following, by his second
wife and relict (see her burial 26 Aug. 1783). He mentioned his brothers Thomas, George, and
Benjamin Gell, and numerous nephews and cousins, among whom was his cousin and clerk,
Anthony Gell (see, probably, his burial 4 Feb. 1817). He evidently left no issue.
³ She died, according to the Funeral Book, 10 July. Her will, as Fanny Triggs, of St.
Margaret's, Westminster, widow, dated 27 Apl. 1762, was proved 11 July 1763, by Mr. John
Wight, clerk in his Majesty's Victualling Office, London, whom she made her residuary legatee,
but without stating any relationship. Her only other bequests were £100 each to her nephew
Mr. Simon Beverton, of Christ Church, Oxford (probably a college servant), and Mr. John
Catling, of the Little Cloisters, Westminster.
4 Son of Rev. Dr. David-Walter Morgan, minor canon (see his burial Mch. 1795). The
Funeral Book says that he died 15 July, aged three months, and was buried in his sister's grave
(see her burial 19 Aug. 1762).
5 The Funeral Book says that he died 13 Sep., aged sixty-one. The place of burial suffici-
ently indicates his humble position. See the burial, probably of his wife or sister, 20 Apl. 1762.
• She died, according to the Funeral Book, 5 Nov., aged eighty-four. Her dau. Mary-Ann
O'Keeffe, spinster, administered to her estate 14 Mch. 1764, when she was described as late of
Bailey Park, in the parish of Heathfield, co. Sussex, widow. See her son's burial 3 Oct. 1756,
and note thereto.
7 He died, according to the Funeral Book, 14 Nov., aged thirty. The journals of the day
say that he was a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal and of Windsor Chapel. He had the degree of
Bachelor of Music at Cambridge in 1757, and that of Doctor of Music in 1758. His will, as of
New Windsor, Berks, dated 25 Nov. 1758, was proved 17 Dec. 1763, by his relict Elizabeth, to
whom he had bequeathed all his goods, before their marriage, as Elizabeth Fullerton, of St.
Botolph's, Aldgate, London, spinster.
9 One of the Abbey choir, and also, according to the journals of the day, one of the Gentle-
men of the Chapel Royal. The Funeral Book says that he died 16 Dec., aged thirty-two. His
will, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Gent., dated 15 Apl. 1763, was proved 29 Dec. following,
by his relict Dorothy, to whom he bequeathed all his real and personal estate, and appointed her
guardian of his son Hugh.
9 Son of Robert Fleming, brother of Major-General James Fleming (see his burial 30 Mch.
1751). Letters of administration to the estate of Robert Fleming, Lieutenant in Major-General
Fleming's regiment of foot at Gravesend, were granted, 20 May 1749, to his relict Anne. As he
was living at the date of General Fleming's will, 6 Mch. 1741-2, and named joint cxecutor with
his son John, and as the son John proved the will, 22 Mch. 1750-1, as surviving executor, there

3 The Funeral Book says that she was a servant of Mr. Fidoe (see his burial 20 Nov. 1780),
and that she died 7 Mch., aged sixty-six. Her will, as of Westminster Abbey, widow, dated
6 Mch. 1764, was proved on the 26th of the same month, in the Court of the Dean and Chapter,
by the said Benjamin Fidoe, Gent. She left her apparel to her fellow-servant Elizabeth Gover,
and the rest of her possessions to Jane and Samuel, children of Mr. William Hawkins, apothecary,
and Susanna his wife.
4 Dau. of Dr. Benjamin Cooke, organist of the Abbey (see his burial 21 Sep. 1793), by Mary
his wife (see her burial 26 Mch. 1784). The Funeral Book says that she died 13 Apl., in her
eighth month, and was buried under the gravestone of Mrs. Mary Shelvocke, her grandmother
(see her burial 1 Aug. 1761), and adds that "her brother George and her sister Mary-Elizabeth
were at the same time removed to the same stone" (sce their burials 19 June 1759 and 11 Oct. 1760).
5 The Funeral Book says that he died 15 May, aged seventy-six. His will, as of St.
Margaret's, Westminster, fishmonger, dated 2 May 1764, was proved on the 16th of the same
month, by his relict Mary, to whom he left all his estate, real and personal, and who was alone
named in it. The London Chronicle of Thursday, 17 May 1764, says: "On Tuesday died, at his
house in the Fish Market. Westminster, aged seventy-five, Mr. Samuel Jones, the oldest fish-
monger in Westminster." See the burials 29 Jan. 1732-3, 19 Feb. 1739-40, and 4 Jan. 1750-1,

2 Younger son of Andrew Stone, of London, Gent., an eminent banker in Lombard Street, by
his wife Anne Holbrooke. He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church. 2 June 1725, aged
seventeen, and was B.A. 7 May 1729, M.A. 10 May 1732, and D.D. 20 May 1740. He became
Dean of Ferns and Leighlin, in Ireland, by patent dated 22 Aug. 1733, and was installed Dean of
Derry 3 Apl. 1734. He was consecrated Bishop of Ferns and Leighlin 3 Aug. 1740, translated to
Kildare by patent dated 19 Mch. 1742-3, and translated to Derry, being enthroned 22 July 1745.
His patent as Archbishop of Armagh was dated 13 Mch. 1746-7, but he was not enthroned until
26 Sep. 1752. He died at his brother's house in Privy Garden, according to the Funeral Book,
19 Dec., in his fifty-seventh year. See his brother's marriage 17 Feb. 1736-7, and the burial of
another brother 24 Dec. 1773.
3 Dau. of Dr. Benjamin Cooke, organist of the Abbey (see his burial 21 Sep. 1793), by Mary
his wife (see her burial 26 Mch. 1784). She died, according to the Funeral Book, 9 Mch.,
aged seven months.
4 Relict of the Right Rev. Richard Smalbroke, D.D., Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry, who
died 22 Dec. 1749. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 9 Mch.. aged eighty. Her will,
dated 31 Dec. 1754, was proved 21 Mch. 1765, by her son Richard Smalbroke, Doctor of Laws
(see his burial 14 May 1805). Her will furnishes no clew to her own family. See the burial of
another son 17 June 1797.
5 Second and youngest son of Francis Duroure (or Du Roure, as the name was originally
written), a refugee French officer in Ireland, by Catherine Rieutort (or de Rieutort), who died at
Southampton in 1731. He entered the army at the age of sixteen, and finally attained the rank
of Lieut.-General 6 Dec. 1760. His monument describes him as Colonel of the fourth or King's
Own regiment of foot, and Captain of the Castle of St. Mawes, in Cornwall, and states that he
died at Toulouse, in France, 2 Jan. 1765, aged seventy-three, after fifty-seven years' service. His
promotion does not appear to have been very rapid, as he only attained the colonelcy of the
38th Foot 27 Feb. 1752, when he was sixty years of age. He was transferred to the King's Own
12 May 1756, and promoted to be a Major-General 24 Jan. 1758. He married, about 3 Nov. 1748,
(Mar. Lic. Fac.), Louisa Bruchell, of Hammersmith, Midx., spinster, aged above thirty-five,
according to the marriage allegation, which also gives his age as above forty-eight. As he was
really then fifty-six, it is probable that her age was also understated. They appear to have had
no issue. She survived him, and died at Mortlake, Surrey, 10 Oct. 1780. Peter Bruchell, of
Hammersmith, Esq. (perhaps her brother), was one of her husband's executors. Scipio Duroure,
Adjutant-General of the British Forces, who died 10 May 1745, from the effects of wounds
received at the battle of Fontenoy, was his elder and only brother, and his son Francis erected
a monument to their memory in the Abbey Cloisters, on which they were eloquently and
appropriately described as "two affectionate Brothers, valiant Soldiers, and sincere Christians.”

M.P. for co. Notts from 1734 to 1747, when he was appointed a Commissioner of the Customs,
and in 1763 was made Receiver-General and Cashier of the same. He died, according to his
monument, 17 Aug., aged fifty-two. His will, as of Kensington Gore, Midx., Esq., dated 3 Aug.
1765, was proved on the 23rd of the same mouth. He mentioned no relations except his sister
Mary, wife of Robert Sutton, of East Retford, co. Notts, Esq. He evidently died unmarried.
5 Third son and sixth child of K. George II. (see his burial 11 Nov. 1760), by Q. Caroline
(see her burial 17 Dec. 1737), and born at St. James's Palace 15 Apl. 1721. He was created
Duke of Cumberland, etc., 27 July 1726. He was Field-Marshal and Commander-in-Chief of the
Forces, and commanded the English army at Fontenoy and Culloden. He was also F.R.S., and
Chancellor of the Universities of Dublin and St. Andrew. He died unmarried.
• Second wife and relict of Robert Southey, College gardener (sce his burial 31 Aug. 1722).
She was appointed College gardener 23 Dec. 1723, and held that post, and also that of scavenger
of the Little Cloisters, until her death. The journals of the day say that she had reached the
age
of one-hundred-and-two, but the Funeral Book, quoting her coffin-plate, says that she died
25 Nov., aged ninety-three. See her daughter's burial 24 Feb. 1752.

1751), by the Princess Augusta (see her burial 15 Feb. 1772). According to the parish register of
St. Anne, Westminster, he was born 13 May, and baptized 17 June 1750, but he is given the name
of Frederick only in that register.

2 Younger dau. of Thomas Arne, of St. Paul's, Covent Garden, Midx., upholsterer, by his
second wife, Anne Wheeler, who were married at the Chapel of the Mercers' Company, London,
in April 1707, and sister of Dr. Thomas-Augustine Arne, the celebrated musical composer. She
was baptized at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, 28 Feb. 1713-4, and married, 21 Apl. 1734, Theophilus
Cibber, the well-known actor and dramatist, to whom she was second wife, and who was
drowned, on his passage to Dublin, in October 1758. They appear to have had two children,
viz., Susanna, who was buried at St. Paul's, Covent Garden, 14 Feb. 1734-5, and Caius-Gabriel,
who was buried there 17 Apl. 1736, both dying in infancy. In December 1738, she figured in
one of the remarkable crim. con. cases of the period, her husband being the plaintiff, and William
Sloper, of Woodhay; co. Berks, Esq., the defendant. The decision was against the latter, but the
jury, instead of giving £5000 damages, as claimed by the plaintiff, gave him only £10, on the
ground that he had connived at and consented to his own dishonour. The result was a separa-
tion, she retaining the name of Cibber, and, by a formal deed, being entitled to such estate as she
had already acquired, or should thereafter acquire by her profession as an actress. She referred
to this deed in her will. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 31 Jan., in her fifty-first
year, which is an error, as from the date of her baptism she was quite, or very nearly, fifty-two.
Her will, dated 16 June 1757, was proved 15 Feb. 1766, by the said William Sloper, to whom she
gave her entire real and personal estate, in trust for her two children, Charles and Susanna-
Maria, when they should attain their majority, or at their marriages. She was undoubtedly the
most successful tragic actress of her day, and it is but fair and just to add that the profligate and
otherwise infamous character of her husband readily induced the public to condone the social
offence with which she had been charged, and of which, her own will being the evidence, she
was confessedly guilty.
3 "Yesterday died at his house in the Almonry, Westminster, Mr. Cotterell, upwards of one
hundred years old, a man of an enormous bulk" (London Chronicle, 18 Feb. 1766). The Funeral
Book, however, says that he died 17 Feb., aged eighty-seven, and was buried on his wife (see her
burial 17 June 1765). As the latter quoted his coffin-plate, his age as there given is the most
likely to have been correct. His will, dated 6 Jan. 1766, was proved on the day of his death, in
the Court of the Dean and Chapter, by George Williams, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, to
whom and to Elizabeth Strutton he gave all his possessions equally, but without mentioning any
relationship. His name, in the will, is Cottrell.
The Funeral Book says that he died 20 Feb., in his eighty-fifth year. See the burial
27 Jan. 1730-1, probably of his wife or sister.
5 Child of Dr. Benjamin Cooke, organist of the Abbey (see his burial 21 Sep. 1793), by Mary
his wife (see her burial 26 Mch. 1784). The Funeral Book gives his age as six months and three
weeks, and says that he was buried at the feet of his grandmother, Mrs. Mary Shelvocke (see her
burial 1 Aug. 1761).
6 The Funeral Book says a child of the beadle's," and that she died 21 Mch., aged seventeen
months. See her father's burial 24 Mch. 1796, and her mother's 4 Nov. 1788.
7 The Funeral Book says that she died 4 May. Her will, as of Petty France, St. Margaret's,

according to the Funeral Book, 14 July, aged seventy. In her will, dated 9 June and proved

bequeathing £2500 for the expenses of the new vault and a monument.
2 He died, according to the Funeral Book, 10 Sep., aged fifty-seven. The journals of the
day describe him as an officer on half-pay. He appears to have died intestate.
3 The Funeral Book describes her as the wife of Joseph-Gactan Sciaccaluga, merchant, and
says that she died 27 Oct., aged sixteen years, adding the words "Requiescat in pace," evidently
from her coffin-plate. A marriage license was granted by the Vicar-General, 4 Apl. 1766, for
Joseph-Gactan Sciaccalugga, of St. Peter-le-Poor, London, bachelor, aged twenty-one and up-
wards, and Maria-Teresa Valle, of St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., spinster, aged fifteen years
and upwards, with the consent of her father Bartolomco Valle, of the same parish, merchant.
4 Dau. of Rev. Dr. David-Walter Morgan, minor canon of the Abbey (see his burial Mch.

the same grave with her brother and sister (see their burials 17 July 1763 and 19 Aug. 1762).
5 Relict of Vincent Bourne, the well-known Latin poet, and Usher of Westminster School.
The Funeral Book says that she died 7 Mch., aged seventy-six, and was buried in the grave of
Mr. George Jewell (see his burial 9 June 1725), who was her first husband, and she was his
executrix. They do not appear to have been long married, and she evidently had no issue by
him. After remaining a widow nearly two years, she was married to Vincent Bourne, at the
Chapel Royal, Whitehall, 25 Mch. 1727. In the marriage allegation, at the Faculty Office, dated
14 Mch., he was described as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Gent., a bachelor, aged thirty-two,
and she as of the same parish, a widow, aged above thirty. She was, however, according to her
age as stated on her coffin-plate, four years his senior. They evidently had only two children,
viz., Thomas, who was born 28 Jan., and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 2 Feb., 1727-8,
and Lucia, who was born the 7th, and baptized at St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, 20 Nov.,
1729, and who eventually became a sister of St. Katharine's Hospital, London (see her burial
11 Mch. 1807). Vincent Bourne died 2 Dcc. 1747, and was buried on the 5th of the same month
in the churchyard of Fulham, Midx. He made his will 25 Dec. 1727, the year of his marriage,
simply giving all his goods to his wife Lucia, appointing her his executrix, and directing to
be buried, "with privacy, in some neighbouring churchyard." In a codicil, dated 24 Feb. 1745-6,
he stated that God had blessed him with two children, Thomas and Lucia, both by his wife
Lucia, and gave cach an Exchequer order of £500; also bequeathing to his wife his right to a
farm in St. Andrew's parish, near Bungay, co. Suffolk, the house he had built at Millbank, West-
minster, and another house in Barton Street, as well as all the rest of his personalty. By another

second-lieutenancy in the Marine service, and fitted out for an East Indian voyage, he revoked
the former bequest of £500 to him, and added it to the portion of his daughter Lucia, giving him
instead the reversion of the farm in Suffolk and the house at Millbank, after his mother's death.
The will was proved 22 Dec. 1747, by the relict Lucia, who appears to have died intestate, and
no trace of her family history has been obtained. The son Thomas evidently died before his
sister, as he was not named in her will, and she bequeathed the house in Millbank, which had
been occupied by Admiral Ommaney and was then in the tenancy of his widow.
¹ Dau. of Thomas Warburton, of Winnington, co. Chester, Esq., and second wife and relict
of John Campbell, second Duke of Argyll and created Duke of Greenwich (see his burial 15 Oct.
1743), to whom married 6 June 1717. She had been one of the Maids of Honour to Q. Anne.
She died, according to her coffin-plate (exposed in 1869), 16 Apl., aged eighty-four. See the
burials of her daughters, 25 Jan. 1794 and 11 Oct. 1811.
2 The Funeral Book says that she "dropped down dead in Dean's Yard on April 28th, and
was buried after an inquest."
3 See her husband's burial 22 Feb. 1752. They were married at St. James, Westminster,
14 Apl. 1730. In the marriage allegation, at the Faculty office, dated 14 Apl., she was described
as Elizabeth Jones, of St. George's, Hanover Square, Midx., widow. Her maiden name appears
to have been Bourne. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 23 June, aged seventy-nine.
Her will, dated 27 Feb. 1752, with a codicil 21 Feb. 1757, was proved 7 July 1767, by her sister,
Mary Bourne, spinster, residuary legatee.
4 Second dau. of Sir John Fleming, Bart. (see his burial 21 Feb. 1764), by Dame Jane his
wife, afterwards Baroness Harewood (see her burial 19 Apl. 1813). She died, according to her
monument, 7 July, aged ten years.
5 The Funeral Book calls her "a servant of Mr. Rice," and says that she died 17 Oct., aged
seventy-two. See the burial of John Rice, 5 Feb. 1768. In his will, dated before her death, he
had named her as one of his residuary legatees, but without stating any relationship. Her will,
dated 26 May 1762, then of St. Marylebone, Midx., was proved 27 Oct. 1767, by her sister Mary,
wife of Daniel Bowls, of Saffron Hill, St. Andrew's, Holborn, to whom she bequeathed £100 and
the residue of her goods. Her only other bequests were £50 each to her nieces Elizabeth Bonner
and Mary Bonner, when of full age.
6 Second son and third child of Frederick-Louis, Prince of Wales (see his burial 13 Apl.
1751), by the Princess Augusta (see her burial 15 Feb. 1772). He was born 14 Mch. 1738-9, and
baptized at Norfolk House, St. James's Square, 11 Apl. following. He was created Duke of
York, etc., 1 Apl. 1760. He died, unmarried, at Monaco, of a malignant fever. His remains

4 He was appointed a bell-ringer 23 Nov. 1736, and porter of the Great Cloister and back

"first porter," and says that he died 1 Feb., aged seventy. His will, as of Dean's Yard, dated
10 Mch. 1764, was proved 30 Mch. 1768, by William Boyce, Dr. of Music, and John Bacon, as
attornies for his son and only next of kin, John Rice, then residing at New York, in North
America (see his burial 24 Mch. 1808). He stated that his wife Ann was then abroad, and he

adds: “was one of the choristers, and had the misfortune to be drowned." The London Chronicle,

3 Son of Mr. Thomas Barrow, one of the Abbey choir (scc his burial 17 Aug. 1789), by Mary
his wife (see her burial 16 June 1810). He died, according to the Funeral Book, 1 Aug., aged
thirteen months.
4 The Funeral Book says that he died 13 Aug., in his seventeenth year, and adds: "he was
a King's Scholar, and was drowned." He was admitted into St. Peter's College, Westminster, in
1768, and a note in the College records says that he was drowned at Richmond. See a burial
28 Dec. 1750.
5 Probably dau. of Jeremiah Caldwall (see the burials 16 Sep. 1714 and 3 Dec. 1728, and

6 The Funeral Book says that she died 10 Oct., aged eighty-three, and was buried on
Mr. James Chelsum (sce his burial 10 Aug. 1743). She was a sister of his widow, Mary Chelsum.
Her will, as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, spinster, dated 18 Jan. 1769, was proved
21 Oct. following, by said Mary Chelsum, to whom she left all her goods, except her apparel and
linen, which she gave to her nieces Anna and Mary King.
7 The Funeral Book says that he died 9 Nov., aged eighteen years, and adds "He was
servant Boy of Dr. Ballard's" (i. o. of Rev. Reeve Ballard, one of the Prebendaries of West-
ø.
minster, who does not, however, appear then to have had a Doctor's degree).
8 Probably wife or sister of Thomas Finny (sce his burial 19 Dec. 1776). She died, according
to the Funeral Book, 19 Jan., aged eighty-six.
9 Wife of Thomas Gayfere, mason of the Abbey (see his burial 10 April 1812). Both the
Funeral Book and her monument say that she died the 22nd and was buried the 27th of March.

10 Dau. and evidently only child of Nicholas Lade, one of the Abbey choir. She died,
according to the Funeral Book, 4 May. Her father died at Windsor 9 July 1783, and was
described in the journals of the day as “Mr. Nicholas Ladd, senior gentleman of H.M.'s Chapel
Royal at St. James, a member of St. Peter's, Westminster, father of the choir of H.M.'s free
Chapel of St. George in Windsor Castle, and a member of the Collegiate Chapel of Eton." He
was sworn a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal 15 Aug. 1743. His will (signed Nicholas Lade), as
of Windsor Castle, Gent., dated 2 June 1783, was proved 18 Sep. following, by his relict Frances.

1 First wife of Samuel Strutt, Esq., Assistant-Clerk of the House of Lords (see his burial
31 Jan. 1785). She died, according to the Funeral Book and her monument, 17 July. Her dau.
Lydia (who evidently died young) was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 25 July 1756,
and in that register she is called Katharine-Ruth.
2 Son and apparently only child of Reimerd Watkins (see his burial 8 Oct. 1742), by Anne
his wife. He was baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 25 May 1744, after his father's death,
being then, according to the parish register, in his twelfth year. His age, therefore, is errone-
ously stated in the text, as he was really in his thirty-ninth year at his death. This is further
proved by the facts that in 1751, according to the will of his aunt Philippa Watkins (see her
burial 13 Sep. in that year), he was already an apprentice, and that he was admitted to
Gray's Inn 23 Nov. 1758, when, if only twenty-eight at his death, he would have been respectively
only nine and seventeen years of age, much too young for either event. His wife. also, would
have been in one case only seven years his senior, which is reasonable, while in the other she
would have been seventeen, which is not so reasonable (see her burial 26 Oct. 1807). He died,
according to the Funeral Book, 22 July. The journals of the day describe him as of Ware,
Herts, and say that he died at his apartments in Cold-Bath Square. His will, as of Ware, Gent.,
dated 7 June 1769, was proved 26 July 1770, by his relict Anne, to whom he left his entire estate,
except a few small legacies to her relations.

Westminster, 4 Feb. 1704-5, and was married, at Somerset House Chapel, 12 July 1731, to George
Fox, Esq., who afterwards assumed the additional surname of Lane, and was created Baron
Bingley 13 May 1762. She died at Bath, according to the journals of the day, aged sixty-three,
but was really in her sixty-seventh year. Her husband died 22 Feb. 1773, when the title became
extinct, their only son dying in his lifetime, without issue.
• He died, according to the Funeral Book, 10 May. His will, as of Princess Court, St.
Margaret's, Westminster, dated 19 Aug. 1766, was proved 27 May 1771, by his relict Jane (see
her burial 21 Nov. 1775) and his dau. Mary Anne (see her burial 3 Feb. 1810), who were his only

2 The Funeral Book calls him "Dean of Bocking, in Essex," and says that he died 6 Sep.
His monument describes him as also Rector of Southchurch, co. Essex. He matriculated at
Oxford, from Corpus Christi College, 17 Dec. 1733, aged fifteen, as son of John Hall, of Basing-
stoke, co. Southampton, Gent., and was B.A. 10 June 1737, M.A. 14 Feb. 1740-1, B.D. 22 Apl.

allegation as a spinster, aged twenty-four, and she administered to his estate 22 Sep. 1774.
3 The Funeral Book says "one of the almsmen," and that he died 16 Nov. He appears to
have married Elizabeth, dau. of Shadrach Alderson (see his burial 23 Oct. 1744), who in his will
described him as a "waterman."
4 Her monument described her as the "eldest dau. of Andrew Fletcher, of Salton, Esq., and
wife of John Grant, of Elchies, Esq., both of North Britain," and the Funeral Book says that she
died 5 April. The Scots Magazine, noticing her death, described her as "wife of Baron Grant
and daughter of the late Lord Milton." She was evidently the daughter of the well-known
Andrew Fletcher, of Salton, better known as Lord Milton, the distinguished Lord-justice-clerk
of Scotland, which office he resigned in 1748, on being appointed principal keeper of the signet.
He died 13 Dec. 1766. Her husband, John Grant, was son of Patrick Grant, another dis-
tinguished judge known as Lord Elchies, and was himself one of the barons of the Exchequer in
Scotland.

widow, dated on the day of her death, was proved 16 Aug. following, by Raisley Calvert, of
Greystoke, co. Cumberland, to whom and to his heirs for ever, without naming any relationship,

Midx., 10 May, 1713. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 15 Nov. The extraordinary fact
that her husband remarried eight days after her death, and only two days after her burial,
suggests some domestic mystery, which is not explained by the wills of her family. See the

Navy 1755, Rear-Admiral of the Blue 1756 and of the White 1758, Vice-Admiral of the Blue
1759, and commanded the fleet in the expedition against Quebec in that year, Lieut.-General of
the Marines 1760, installed a Knight of the Bath 26 May 1761, a lord of the Admiralty 1765, and
First Lord 1766. He is said to have married, 26 Sep. 1751, the only dau. of James Buck, of
London, banker, but she is not named in his will, which was dated 20 Jan. 1773 and proved
14 Dec. 1775. The only relations he mentioned were his sister Anne, widow of Peter Kinsey,
and her children Charles and Jane Kinsey, his late uncle Thomas Jenkinson of Cubley, co.
Derby, and his children, and his cousin Harriot Egerton, daughter of Colonel Egerton deceased.
4 The Funeral Book says that she died 10 Dec. The place of burial indicates that she
occupied some humble position.
• Rightly Strode. His monument describes him as Lieut.-General, and Colonel of the 62nd
regiment of foot, and states that he died after sixty years' service. His will, dated 20 Oct. 1774,
was proved 19 Jan. 1776. He bequeathed the residue of his estate to trustees for the benefit of
several charities, but gave his freehold house in Gerrard Street, St. Anne's, Westminster, all his
furniture, plate, jewels, books. coach and horses, etc., and an annuity of £100, to Mrs. Sarah
Land, dau. of Eustace Harding, late fruiterer and cider merchant, deceased, and then the wife of
Thomas Land, husbandman. No relations are named in the will. The London Chronicle, of
19 Jan. 1776, noticing his death, says: "He had such a great regard for the Duke of Cumber-
land that he crccted, at his own expense, a handsome statue to his Royal Highness's memory in
Cavendish Square." This well known statue, according to the inscription upon it, was erected
4 Nov. 1770.

1724. He matriculated at Oxford, from Balliol College, 25 Feb. 1740-1, but appears to have
taken no degree. While still a serjeant-at-law, 8 July 1773, he was created D.C.L. by his old
University. He was made a Baron of the Exchequer 8 Apl. 1774, and knighted the same day.
He married Letitia, only dau. of William Berkeley-Portman, of Orchard - Portman, co. Somerset,
Esq., who survived him until 1779, and left an only son. He is said to have died instantaneously,
from the bursting of a blood-vessel of the brain.
¹ Son of Samuel Bracebridge, of Ansley Hall, co. Warwick, Esq., who assumed the name
and arms of Ludford, by Catharine, dau. of John Lewis, of Guildford, co. Surrey, Gent. He was
baptized at Ansley 29 Sep. 1708, and married, at St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, 29 May
1731, Anne, only dau. of Rev. Edward Taylor, Rector of Finningley, Notts, and widow of Thomas
Bold, of London, distiller (see her burial 18 May 1748, and note thereto), by whom he had one
son, Edward-Taylor Ludford, who was living 31 Mch. 1743, but evidently died before his father,
as he was not named in his will. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 1 Mch., and the
journals of the day say at his house at Hayes, co. Midx. His will, as of Hayes, Esq., dated
12 Jan. 1776, was proved 28 June following, by Elizabeth, wife of Richard Bellamy, to whom,
and to their children, Elizabeth-Maria Bellamy, and Thomas-Ludford Bellamy, he bequeathed
his freehold estates at Hayes and at Westminster, and his leasehold property in Ireland, alleging
that his own family had disowned him, but with the proviso that they were to forfeit the whole in
case they ever had anything to say to a certain person whom he designated as "that infernal
hussey Suett." His other bequests were chiefly to his servants.
2 Only son of Albany Wallis, of the Inner Temple, Esq. (see his burial 10 Sep. 1800), by
Elizabeth his wife, who was buried in the Temple churchyard 3 Mch. 1773. The Funeral Book
says that he died 29 Mch., in his fourteenth year, but his monument says in his thirteenth year,
and that he was drowned in the Thames, being "his loving father's only hope." The discrepancy
probably arose from the fact that the monument was erected by David Garrick, without the
knowledge of his father, and the Funeral Book, quoting the coffin-plate, is the most likely to be
correct.
3 Relict of George Vertue, the celebrated engraver (see his burial 30 July 1756). She died,
according to the Funeral Book, 17 Mch.. and was buried on her husband. Nothing appears to
have been known to her husband's biographers concerning her family, nor even her maiden
name. In a MS. copy (penes the Editor) of an official list of the inmates of the Roman Catholic
Convent at Hammersmith, Midx.. carefully annotated by the successive Lady Abbesses, under the
date of 1703, occur the names of apparently four sisters, viz., Anne, Frances. Phillippa, and Margaret
Evans. Against the name of the first the Lady Abbess of a somewhat later period placed the name
of Nugent, and against the name of the last that of Vertue, with, in both instances, a customary
mark indicating marriage. There can be no doubt whatever that this entry refers to Mrs. Vertue
and her three sisters, as her husband in his will left legacies to his "wife's sisters, Phillippa
Evans and Mrs Anne Nugent, widow." They appear to have died before her, as the only relation
named in her own will, dated 11 Aug. 1775 and proved 27 Mch. 1777, was her cousin Mrs. Mary
Dymes. Her other bequests were to various friends of her own and her late husband. Her prin-
cipal legatees were her said cousin Mary Dymes, and Martha Ford, widow of Richard Ford, late of
the Haymarket, auctioneer. At the date of her will she was living in Brownlow Street, St. Giles in
the Fields. She was of course in the Convent as a child only three years of age, and apparently
the youngest of the four. The list gives no further information respecting her or her family.
The Funeral Book says that she died 13 Apl. Her will, as of St. John the Evangelist,
Westminster, spinster, dated 25 Mch. 1776, was proved 15 Apl. following, by her friend Sarah
Power, widow, to whom she left all her money in the funds, the furniture she had bought since
she had been in lodgings, all her books and china, etc. Her only relation named was her niece
Ann Lane.

(see his burial 13 Aug. 1792). She died at Kensington 7 June, during her husband's absence in
America, and the newspapers of the day say that she was lying dangerously ill when he left
England. The Funeral Book says that she was buried on her daughter (see her burial 10 Mch.
1764).
2 Son of Edmund Ayrton, Dr. of Music (see his burial 28 May 1808), by Ann his wife (sce
her burial 23 May 1800). He was born 31 Jan., and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster,
27 Feb., in the same year. The Funeral Book says that he died 12 July, and was buried in the
same grave with his sister (see her burial 19 Oct. 1772).

She was baptized at Ware 3 July 1690, and married, about 26 Mch. 1711 (Mar. Lic. Fac.), James
Hamilton, afterwards seventh Earl of Abercorn (see his burial 16 Jan. 1743-4).

5 Child of George Slemaker, chief porter of the Abbey (see his burial 23 Aug. 1802), by
Susanna his wife (see her burial 10 Nov. 1818). See his baptism 2 Sep. preceding. The Funeral
Book calls him "the first porter's child," and says that he died 28 Sep.
• The well-known Roman Catholic divine, canon and librarian of St. Geneviève, Paris, who,
chiefly on account of his publication of certain theological works decmed heterodox by his
church, found it expedient to come to England, where he arrived in Jan. 1727-8. The University
of Oxford had created him a Doctor of Divinity 28 Aug. in the preceding year. He is usually
said to have been a native of Vernon, in Normandy, but the Funeral Book, quoting his coffin-
plate, says that he was born at Rouen 17 Nov. 1681. He mentions Vernon in his will as the
residence of his family, and the place of his education. The work which gave him the greatest
celebrity was his dissertation concerning the validity of English ordinations, and the succession of
Bishops in the Church of England. He died 17 Oct., in Downing Street, Westminster. His will,
as "Peter Francis Le Courayer," Doctor in Diviuity, dated 23 Feb. 1774, with codicils 22 Mch.
1775 and 5 Mch. 1776, was proved 29 Oct. 1776. He left legacies to numerous friends, but to
only one relation, viz., his brother James Le Courayer, then living at Vernon. He declared that
he died “a member of the Catholic Church, but without approving of many of the opinions and
superstitions which have been introduced into the Romish Church.'

1 Wife of Pegrum Thorpe (see his burial 29 Jan. 1784), to whom married, at St. John the

according to the Funeral Book, 23 Nov. If the ages of herself and husband were correctly
given in the Register and Funeral Book, which there is no reason to doubt, she was some twelve
years his senior.
2 Lady Elizabeth Seymour, only dau, and sole surviving child and heir of Algernon, seventh
Duke of Somerset (see his burial 24 Feb. 1749-50), by Frances his Duchess (see her burial
20 July 1754), and also sole heir of the ancient Earls of Northumberland. She was born 26 Nov.,
and baptized at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 1 Dec. 1716, and married, about 5 July 1740
(Spec. Lic. Vic. Gen.), Sir Hugh Smithson, Bart., who was created Duke of Northumberland
22 Oct. 1766 (see his burial 21 June 1786). See the burials, of her only brother 6 July 1745, and
of her children, 5 June 1761 and 19 July 1817.
3 The Funeral Book says that he died 15 Dec., and adds that he was a carpenter, and was
buried at the Dean's expense. See the burial, probably of his wife or sister, 25 Jan. 1770.
4 The Funeral Book says "wife of Dr. Worgan." Probably the second wife of Dr. John
Worgan, the celebrated organist and musical composer, who, as a widower, married, at St. Mary
Aldermary, London, 12 June 1779, Martha Cooke, of St. Thomas the Apostle, London, widow.
His first wife was Sarah Mackelcan, to whom he was married 1 Sep. 1753, and from whom he was
divorced in 1768. Dr. Worgan's will, dated 11 Apl. 1783, with a codicil 3 Aug. 1790, was proved
31 Aug. 1790, by his relict Martha and his son-in-law William Parsons, Dr. of Music.
5 Spranger Barry, the celebrated tragedian. He is usually said to have been the eldest son
of an eminent silversmith in Dublin, and to have been born in the parish of St. Werburgh, in that
city, 20 Nov. 1719. A writer in Notes and Queries, in 1850, 1st Ser., i. 212. stated that he and
Sir William Betham had succeeded in connecting him, "satisfactorily, and legitimately, with the
noble house of Barry, Lord Santry." He appears to have been twice married, although his first
wife is seldom named by his biographers. See the burial of his second wife, as Mrs. Ann
Crawford, 7 Dec. 1801. He is said to have been married to her about 1768. In the parish
register of St. Paul's, Covent Garden, Midx., occurs the baptism. 10 Aug. 1748, of Spranger, son of
Spranger Barry and Ann his wife. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 10 Jan. His will,
as of King Street, Covent Garden, Esq., dated 24 Jan. 1770. was proved 1 Feb. 1777, by his
relict Ann, whom he described as "Aun Barry, formerly Ann Dancer," to whom he bequeathed
his leasehold house at Streatham, co. Surrey, with its furniture, etc., also the Theatre Royal, in
Crow Street, Dublin, with its contents, and a house adjoining, the same being subject to two
annuities of £60 and £40 payable to James Carter. during the lives of Ann Carter and Julia
Carter, under an indenture dated 23 Apl. 1768. He also gave to his wife the residue of his per-
sonalty, and no other legatec is named in the will.
6 The Funeral Book says "second daughter of Rev. Dr. Lloyd, late second master of West-
minster School," and that she died 22 Jan., aged thirty-six; but either she, or a second daughter
of the same name, was born the 2nd, and baptized at St. John the Evangelist, Westminster,

11 Feb., and baptized 8 Mch. 1740-1, and was therefore now within a few days of the age of
thirty-six. It is probable that her age, as given both in the Register and Funeral Book, is an
crror, and that it should read thirty-nine. See her father's burial 12 Jan. 1781.
See her baptism 12 Dec. 1776, and the burials, of her father 29 Dec. 1815, and of her

Westminster, widow, dated 19 Mch. 1772, was proved 9 Apl. 1777, by William Young, of the

but without naming any relationship.
3 Charles-Walter, second son of John Congreve, of Congreve and Stretton, co. Stafford, Esq.,
by Abigail, dau. of John Harwood, of Shrewsbury, co. Salop, Esq., and great-nephew of William
Congreve, Esq., the celebrated dramatist (sec his burial 26 Jan. 1728-9). He matriculated at
Oxford, from Magdalen Hall, 11 Mch. 1725-6, aged eighteen, and was B.A. 17 Oct. 1729, as of
that Hall, and M.A., as of All Souls College, 6 Apl. 1731. He signed the subscription book, and
took his degrees, as "Charles Congreve" only, but appears to have assumed the second name
soon after, as he was installed Archdeacon of Armagh, by both names, 13 May 1738. In Apl.
1746 he was appointed Vicar-General of that diocese. He died, according to the Funeral Book,
7 June, and was unmarried.
4 The Chapter Book mentions him, 5 June 1766, as the College cook. The Funeral Book
says that he died 22 July, and was buried with his wife (sec her burial 13 Nov. 1761). His will,
as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, oilman, dated 18 July 1777, was proved on the
29th of the same month, by his dau. Mary Fisher, spinster, whom he made his residuary legatee,
giving his other two daughters, Elizabeth and Jane-Frances, £100 each. See the burials of his
children, 8 Aug. 1740, 23 Jan. 1741-2, 16 Nov. 1745, 30 Oct. 1748, 28 June 1752, 24 Nov. 1760,

5 The Funeral Book says one of the almsmen," and that he died 1 Oct. He is mentioned

was proved 23 Oct. 1777, by his relict Sarah. He left bequests to his children in the following
order : Samuel Williams, Sarah, wife of John Edwards, Margaret Williams, Elizabeth Williams,
and Henry-Hutton Williams. See the burials of his grandsons, 28 Dec. 1753 and 13 Jan.

Esq., by Eleanor, dau. of Sir Edward Gooderc, first Bart. of Burhope, co. Hereford. He was
born at Truro, and matriculated at Oxford, from Worcester College, 1 July 1737, aged sixteen,
but appears to have taken no degree. As author, actor, and manager, his subsequent career is too
well known to require rehearsal. He died 21 Oct., at the "Ship" inn, Dover, on his way to
France. His will, as of the Haymarket, Esq., dated 13 Aug. 1768, was proved the day after his
death. He bequeathed his possessions, such as they were, in trust for his two illegitimate sons,

She was the first wife of Rev. John Hiscox (son of John Hiscox, Esq., sometime of Carshalton,
co. Surrey, but who died at Lambeth 10 May 1772, by Hannah his wife, who also died at
Lambeth, about Nov. 1773), who, in his will, as of North Street, St. John the Evangelist, West-
minster, dated 14 Jan. 1789, and proved 9 Mch. following. by his second wife and relict
Elizabeth (see her burial 9 July 1789), mentioned her as Jean Elphinstone, and cited the con-
tract made before their marriage, dated at Aberdeen 4 Feb. 1775. His two children by her,
Jean and Anne, survived him.
2 The Funeral Book says that she died 27 Dec. She was probably related in some way to
John Catling, one of the sacrists of the Abbey (see his burial 29 May 1762), but was neither his
sister nor his daughter. One of her name was born the 7th, and baptized at St. Margaret's,
Westminster, 26 Mch. 1738, as daughter of John Catling and Jane his wife, who appear to have
been married there 26 May 1737, as John Catling and Jane Chatty.

Susanna his wife (see her burial 10 Nov. 1818). See his baptism 22 Oct. 1775. The Funeral

at the feet of her brother and sister (see their burials 13 July 1776 and 19 Oct. 1772).
5 The Funeral Book, quoting her coffin-plate, says "Catharine Rawle. born 1 Sep. 1758, died
28 Dec. 1777." See her father's burial 15 Nov. 1789, and that of her sister, Caroline Dale, 1 Nov.
1825.
6 The Funeral Book says that he died 17 Jan., aged eighty-eight, but his monument gives
his age as ninety. His will, as late of Aldermanbury, London, warehouseman, but then of Duke
Street, Westminster, dated 4 Sep. 1777, was proved 18 Apl. 1778, by his son John Hanna (see his
burial 25 Mch. 1814) and his son-in-law Thomas Symonds, husband of his dau. Jane. His other
legatees were his wife Elizabeth (see her burial 29 Sep. 1786), his married daughters Mary-
Margery Clinton and Henrietta Sprat, his unmarried daughters Arabella and Elizabeth, his
sister Jane Ditour, and his brother John Hanna, of Athlone, Ireland. The baptisms and burials
of several of his children occur in the parish register of St. Mary Aldermanbury.
7 He died, according to the Funeral Book, 12 Feb., and at his house in Abingdon Buildings,
according to the newspapers of the day. His will, as of Abingdon Street, Westminster, but late
of the parish of St. Andrew, co. Surrey, island of Jamaica, Esq., dated 8 Feb. 1788, was proved
on the 17th of the same month, by his relict Elizabeth (see her burial 13 Oct. 1829), and by
William Simpson, of the Inner Temple, Gent. His sister Susanna Halhed, then living with
him, an invalid, was to continue to have the annuity left her by her father, Richard Halhed,

Fort, Treasurer of the Foundling Hospital, etc., who was knighted 19 Aug. 1768, and died at
Bath 22 Aug. 1778, by Martha, eldest dau. of Richard Shelley, Esq., commissioner of the stamp
office, second son of Sir John Shelley, third Bart. (Their cldest son, Charles Whitworth, was
the celebrated diplomatist, afterwards Earl Whitworth). He was admitted into St. Peter's
College, Westminster, in 1775, and, according to the Funeral Book, was unfortunately drowned,
on Tuesday, 5 May, which accords with the text. The London Chronicle gives an account of the
accident, with, however, some little confusion of dates. The issue of Thursday, 7 May, says:
"Yesterday evening, three young gentlemen belonging to Westminster School sailing in a boat
between Lambeth and Vauxhall, the boat overset, and two of them were drowned; the other
was taken up by a waterman." The issue of 9 May says: "The young gentlemen who were
drowned on Monday last, prove to be the sons of Sir Charles Whitworth and Mr. Felton. Doctor
Warren's son was in the boat, but fortunately saved." See the preceding entry.
4 Youngest dau. of Allen Cliffe, of Mathon, co. Worcester, Esq., by Elizabeth his wife.
She was baptized at Mathon 11 Nov. 1706, and married there, 2 Oct. 1735, to Owen Davies, of
Westminster, Esq. (see his burial 1 May 1759). She died, according to the Funeral Book, 1 May,
and was buried on her husband. See the baptisms of her children 14 Sep. 1736 and 13 Jan.
1739-40, and their burials 6 Feb. 1786 and 2 Apl. 1791; also the burial of her brother 23 Apl. 1742.
• The celebrated statesman. Second son of Robert Pitt, Esq., by Harrict, dau. of Edward
Villiers, Esq., and sister of John, fifth Viscount Grandison. He was born, according to his
monument, 15 Nov. 1708, and appears to have been baptized at St. James, Westminster, 13 Dec.
following. He matriculated at Oxford, from Trinity College, 14 Jan. 1726-7, aged eighteen, as
son of Robert Pitt, of Old Sarum, Esq., but appears to have taken no degrce. He became Secre-
tary of State in 1756, and was created, 4 Aug., 1766, Viscount Pitt and Earl of Chatham. See
the burials, of his wife 16 Apl. 1803, of his sons 22 Feb. 1806 and 3 Oct. 1835, and of his daughter
2 Oct. 1786.
6 The journals of the day say that he was gazetted "Colonel of Foot in the East Indies
only" in June 1764, and that he was killed at the siege of Madura, while leading the storming

4 According to his gravestone, he was the eldest son of his parents, and died 22 Dec., aged
thirteen years, five months, and five days. The Funeral Book, quoting his coffin-plate, says that
he was born 17 July 1765, and died 21 Dec. 1778. He was born 17 July, and baptized at St.
Margaret's, Westminster, 16 Aug. 1765, as son of Michael Van Millingen and Elizabeth his

vicar choral of Lichfield cathedral, and was baptized at All Saints, Hereford, 28 Feb. 1715-16.
His grandfather, David Garric (as he and at least one of the sons wrote the name), was a refugee

¹ Wife of Robert Jennings, Esq. (see his burial 4 Sep. 1779). In a pedigree of the family in
the various editions of Burke's Landed Gentry, she is simply described as "Miss Ford;" but that
account is so full of gross errors throughout that no reliance can be placed upon any of its
statements. She appears, from references in various wills, to have been a sister of Mrs. Grace
Gostridge (see her burial 15 Feb. 1780), and of Mrs. Sarah Langwith (see her burial 14 Feb.
1784). "Robert Jennings and Mary Dore" were married at St. Peter-le-Poor, London, 8 Jan.
1735-6, a date which accords with the ages of her children. See the burials, of her son 20 Oct.
1787, and her daughter 24 Nov. 1813. She died, according to the Funeral Book, 23 March,
2 She was born 31 Mch. 1777. Her father succeeded as Baron Lovaine 6 June 1786, was
created Earl of Beverley 2 Nov. 1790, and died 21 Oct. 1830. See her mother's burial 31 Jan.
1812.
3 Son of Rev. Thomas Baker, one of the minor canons of the Abbey (see his burial 13 May
1745). He was also a minor canon, one of the priests in ordinary of the Chapel Royal, and
preacher at Queen Square Chapel, Westminster. He died, according to the Funeral Book,
24 May. His will, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, Master of Arts, dated 7 Nov. 1777, was
proved 5 June 1779, by his sister Elizabeth, wife of Rev. Henry Evans, as residuary legatee. He
directed to be buried in the Cloisters, near his father and his sister Ann Baker (see her burial
1 Oct. 1764). His only other relations named were his "cousins," viz., Ann Baker, then or late
of Shrewsbury, her sister Sarah Baker, then or late of the city of Chester, Rev. Daniel-William
Remington, then or late of Lichfield Cathedral, and his sister Frances Remington, and William
Baker, then or late to be heard of at the Victualling Office on Tower Hill, London.
4 He died, according to the Funeral Book, 6 Aug., and was described on his gravestone as of
Lambeth, co. Surrey, Esquire. His relict Elizabeth administered to his estate 23 Aug. 1779,
when he was described as of Furnival's Inn. Neither the Register, Funeral Book, nor his
monument, gives his age, which is almost an exceptional omission. Sec his wife's burial 9 Jan.
1783, when her age is also omitted. From the note to her burial it will be seen that he was
probably a very old man.
5 Second son of Rev. Humphrey Persehowsc, minor canon of the Abbey (see his burial 2 Feb.
1762), by Deborah his wife, dau. of John Rawlins, of the city of Oxford, apothecary. He was
baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 20 Jan. 1709-10, and was his father's sole legatee and
executor. He died, according to the Funeral Book, 17 Aug. Letters of administration to his
estate, as of St. Margaret's, Westminster, bachelor, were granted, 1 Sep. 1779, to his uncle
Anthony Rawlins, as next of kin.
According to a generally most inaccurate pedigree of his family in the various editions
of Burke's Landed Gentry, he was a son of Thomas Jennings, of Curteen Hall, Hartwell, co.
Northampton, Esq. (reputed son of the Duke of Monmouth by one of the daughters of Sir John
Jennings), by "Miss Chamberlayne, a lady of ancient descent and large fortune," and was
appointed, by his godfather Sir Robert Walpole, deputy-auditor of the Exchequer. The Gentle-
man's Magazine, noticing his death, described him as "Chief Clerk in H.M.'s Exchequer, a
gentleman most deservedly and universally respected." He died, according to the Funeral
Book, 28 Aug. His will, as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, Esq., dated 17 Dec.
1776, with a codicil 7 June 1779, was proved 9 Sep. 1779, by his son Robert Jennings, and his
son-in-law Charles Gibbes, of Thames Street, London, sugar-baker. His bequests were to his
wife Mary (see her burial 1 Apl. 1779), his son Thomas Jennings (see his burial 20 Oct. 1787),

dau. of Joseph-Beacon Townsend, Esq., by Ann, dau. of Thomas Beacon, of co. Midx., Esq., and
had previously been the wife of a Mr. Reynardson. She was married to Mr. Oswald about
19 Jan. 1746-7 (Mar. Lic. Fac.), and was then described as of Wandsworth, co. Surrey, widow.
Letters of administration to her estate were granted, 17 Apl. 1780, to her son and only child,
James-Townsend Oswald, Esq. See the burial of her grandson 12 June 1819, and the marriage

father's burial 28 Nov. 1783, and his mother's 2 Mch. 1786.
5 The Funeral Book says that she died 5 Dec. Letters of administration to the estate of
Thomas Say, of St. Margaret's, Westminster, widower, were granted 4 Feb. 1733-4, by the Court
of the Dean and Chapter, to his dau. and next of kin, Catherine-Fincham Say. She made her
will 21 Jan. following, 1734-5, and appears to have made no alteration in it during the rest of
her life of nearly forty-five years. She described himself as of St. Margaret's, Westminster,
spinster, and bequeathed her estate in Elme, co. Cambridge, and all her plate, household goods,
and other personalty, to her "good friend" Mrs. Hannah Scott, of St. Margaret's, Westminster,
spinster, absolutely, there being no other legacy except a guinea to her aunt Mrs. Mary Thomas
for a ring. Mrs. Scott survived her (see her burial 21 Aug. 1781), and proved her will 11 Dec.
1779. So marvellous an instance of constancy and friendship is worthy of notice. Mrs. Scott,
in her will, bequeathed the entire estate she thus received to Mrs. Elizabeth Say, of Downham,
co. Norfolk, widow, and her children.
• The Funeral Book says that he died 25 Dec. He was son of Edmund Ayrton, Doctor of

1781, by his relict Martha, sole legatee.
2 Wife of Joseph Newcomb, College cook (see his burial 31 Oct. 1786). The Funeral Book
says that she died 20 Feb., and was buried on the right side of her son (see his burial 24 Jan.
1780).
3 The Funeral Book says that he died 4 Apl., and was buried in the grave of his son (see bis
burial 6 Dec. 1773). His will, as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, Esquire, dated in
Mch. 1773, was proved 19 Apl. 1781, by his relict Margaretta-Mabella (see her burial 26 Apl.
1794), to whom he bequeathed his share of the Victualling Office at Chatham, and the residue of
his estate. His only other relations named were his son Buckeridge-Ball Acworth (see his burial
26 Aug. 1818), his sister Mrs. Elizabeth Manaton, and his sister Acworth and her children. On
his marriage, in 1745, the journals of the day described him as of the Exchequer Office.
4 Eldest child of Hugh, afterwards second Duke of Northumberland (see his burial 19 July
1817), by his second wife and relict, Frances-Julia (see her burial 10 May 1820). She was born

Say (see her burial 13 Dec. 1779, and note thereto). Her will, as of Dartmouth Street, St.
Margaret's, Westminster, spinster, dated 27 Mch. 1780, was proved 18 Aug. 1781, by her brother
John Scott, of Banksfee House, near Moreton-in-the-Marsh, co. Gloucester, residuary legatee, to
whom she also bequeathed £1000 bank stock in trust for his dau. Catherine Scott.
She men-
tioned no other relations, but gave handsome legacies to several friends, and bequeathed the
entire estate left to her by her said friend Mrs. Say to the family of that lady.
7 She died, according to the Funeral Book, 4 Nov., and no fees were paid for her burial.
From her name and place of burial, it is probable that she was a relation of Mary Catling (see
her burial 2 Feb. 1788), whose maiden name was Woolfe,

effects of wounds received while engaging the French fleet. He became a Prebendary of West-

2 He died 11 Aug., according to the Funeral Book, and on his gravestone he was described
as a Justice of the Peace for the county of Middlesex and the city and liberty of Westminster.
The journals of the day say that he died at his house in St. Margaret's Strect, Westminster. His

Middlesex militia, and part owner of Covent Garden Theatre, and was endeavouring to establish
his claim to the ancient barony of Rutherford, when he was unfortunately killed by a fall from
his horse. He published, in 1781, a translation of Cicero's Orations. His will, dated 21 Nov.
1776, was proved 10 Nov. 1781, by his relict Ann (see her burial 30 Jan. 1806), to whom he left
all his estate. See the burial of his sister, Hannah Shortland, 6 Jan. 1816.

and was buried at Ealing, Midx., by his first wife, who died before 1725, and brother of the Right
Rev. Zachary Pearce, Bishop of Rochester and Dean of Westminster. The journals of the day
say that he was a brewer in Westminster. His will, as of Abingdon Street, Westminster, Esquire,
dated 15 Sep. 1780, with several codicils, was proved 8 Jan. 1783. See the burials, of his daughter
23 Jan. 1759, of his grandson 10 Jan. 1791, and of his grand-daughter, Mrs. Mary Abbott, 28 Mch.

2 Youngest dau. of Sir John Egerton, third Bart. of Egerton, co. Chester, by his first wife,
Elizabeth, dau. of William Holland, of Heaton, co. Lancaster, Esq., and relict of George Ward,
Esq. (see his burial 12 Aug. 1779). She died, according to the Funeral Book, 4 Jan.
Her will,
dated 20 Oct. 1758, shortly after her marriage, with a codicil 26 Feb. 1780. was proved 20 Jan.
1783. It cites her marriage settlement, dated 31 Aug. 1758, in which she was described as
Elizabeth Egerton, spinster, and thus affords the means of correcting the conjectural statement
concerning her in the Egerton pedigree in Baker's History of Northamptonshire, i. 621, which
assigns to her another husband. All her bequests were to her brothers and sisters, and their
children, as named in that pedigree, so that there is not the slightest doubt as to her identity.
She of course left no issue. As in the case of her husband, neither the Register nor the Funeral
Book gives her age; but, as her mother died 31 May 1701, she must have been at least in her
eighty-second year, and nearly if not quite sixty at her marriage.
3 Son of Joseph Storr, of Hilston, co. York, Esq. (see a pedigree of the family in Poulson's
History of Holderness, ii. 79-80), and born, according to his monument, 18 Aug. 1709. He
attained a captaincy in the royal navy 1 Nov. 1748, and became rear-admiral of the white
19 Mch. 1779, and of the red 26 Sep. 1780. The journals of the day say that he died at his house
in Bedford Square. His will, dated 27 Jan. 1781, was proved 16 Jan. 1783, by his relict “John-
Norris Storr," to whom, by those names, he bequeathed all his Yorkshire estates. for life, and all
his personalty. At her death his estates were to go to his own relations. She is described in
the pedigree above referred to as John-Norris, relict of Colonel Gordon." She was married, at
St. Martin in the Fields, Midx.. 20 Mch. 1761, to John Gordon. Esq., when she was described as
"Norris Gordon, heretofore Fisher." The parish register of St. George's, Bloomsbury, Midx.,
records the marriage, 11 May 1773, of "John Storr, Esq., bachelor, and John-Norris Fisher,
formerly Gordon, spinster." She signed the latter register, however, as "Norris Fisher, formerly
Gordon." The only reasonable explanation of the first entry is that she had already been
privately married to Colonel Gordon, and the second is sufficiently explained by the fact that
the Journals of the House of Lords record the royal assent, the very day before, to a bill
divorcing her from her first husband.
4 Second son of Sir James Johnstone, third Bart. of Westerhall. co. Dumfries, by Barbara
Murray, dau. of Alexander, fourth Lord Elibank. He died, according to the Funeral Book,
15 Jan., and evidently unmarried. His will, as of Bulstrode Street, St. Marylebone, Midx., Esq.,
Lieut.-Colonel of H.M. Forces, dated 23 May 1775, was proved 24 Jan. 1783, by his eldest
brother, Sir James Johnstone, Bart. (see his burial 17 Sep. 1794), to whom he bequeathed all his
estates in the Island of Grenada, and in England or elsewhere, and whom he made his residuary
legatee. See the burial of another brother, as Sir William Pulteney, Bart., 11 June 1805.

matriculated at Oxford, from Magdalen College, 21 Feb. 1778, aged nineteen, as of Coxhoe, co.
Durham, but appears to have taken no degree. He was a lieutenant in the army, according to
his monument, and was unfortunately slain in a duel, full particulars of which may be found in
the Gentleman's Magazine, Apl. 1783, p. 362, and in the London Chronicle of 26 Apl. and 3 May
in that year. See his stepmother's burial 16 June 1817.

humble position. See his wife's burial 2 Oct. 1793, and his son's 3 Feb. 1806.

according to the directions of his father. He was a lunatic throughout the most, if not the
whole, of his life.
* Eighth son and thirteenth child of King George III., by Sophia-Charlotte, second dau. of
Charles-Louis-Frederick, Duke of Mecklenburgh-Strelitz. He was born 23 Feb. 1779, and died,

aged cighty-four. Her will, dated 19 Jan. 1775, with codicils 4 May 1775 and 11 July 1781,
was proved 14 Jan. 1784. The only relation she named was her "kinsman" Sir Samuel Prime,
the celebrated Serjeant-at-Law, who died 24 Feb. 1777, to whom she bequeathed £100, and all
her pictures.
6 She died, according to the Funeral Book, 1 Sep. Her will, as of New Peter Street,
Westminster, widow, dated 12 Mch. 1774, with a codicil 17 Jan. 1778, was proved 28 Feb. 1784,
by her son Edward Medley (see his burial 6 Jan. 1809), to whom she left all her freehold estate
in Westminster, subject to an annuity of £40 to her dau. Martha, wife of John Waldron, of the
Horseferry Road, coach-wheelwright, for her life. She mentioned a house purchased from her
nephew Samuel Hazelton.

afterwards Lord Delaval (see his burial 13 June 1808), to whom she was first wife, and who
appears to have been her cousin-german, his father's sister Margaret having married Mr. Robinson
above named. See the burial of her daughter, the Countess of Tyrconnel, 4 Nov. 1800. Her age
is not given in the Funeral Book, but must have been upwards of fifty.

25 Dec. 1742, William, eighth Earl of Home, Lieut.-General in the army and Governor of
Gibraltar, where he died 28 Apl. 1761. She appears to have had no issue by either husband.
The Funeral Book gives her age as eighty. Her will, as of Portman Square, dated 19 Nov. 1783,
was proved 24 Jan. 1784. The only relative she named was her relation " William Gale, son

Hewett and Elizabeth Jennings, spinster. The Funeral Book says that she was buried on her

stone." His will, as of Welbeck Street, St. Marylebone, Midx., apothecary, without date, was
proved on the day of his burial, by Anthony Gell, Esq., his son-in-law (see his burial 4 Feb.
1817), to whose wife Frances, his daughter, he bequeathed his entire interest in the "Carmi-
native," having before instructed her in the art and method of preparing that medicine. To his
son Charles-Edward Dalby he gave his interest in certain freehold lands in Great Shrewton,
co. Wilts. His other bequests were to his sons, Joseph, then of the Island of Jamaica, Thomas,
then a lieutenant in the Navy, Jaques, also in the Navy, and John, and to his daughters, Elizabeth
Mitchell, Anne Spencer, and Katharine Dalby. The will itself is an extraordinary literary

authorities admitted it to probate and allowed it to be copied into their records. See his
wife's burial 3 May 1786.

wife was Elizabeth, dau. of the celebrated violinist Matthew Dubourg. They were married by

2 Probably son of Henry Brooker and Hannah Tanner, who were married at St. Margaret's,
Westminster, 2 Feb. 1705-6. The journals of the day say that he was many years keeper of the

became extinct. According to the journals of the day, he died at his house in Great George

and apparently, from his own will, in the 30th regiment of foot. His will, as of Cowley Street,
Westminster, Esq., dated 29 Aug. 1780, was proved 31 Oct. 1787, by his sister Elizabeth Jennings
(see her burial 24 Nov. 1813). His only other relation named was his sister Mary Pearce (see
the burial of her son 10 Jan. 1791).
5 Son of Rowland Blore, Clerk of the Works (see his burial 22 June 1792), by (probably) his
second wife, Sarah. He was born 20 Jan., and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 5 Feb.

account of his disgust at the execution of Admiral Byng. This, however, does not appear to be
strictly true, as, according to Admiral Hardy's List, he quitted the navy 2 Feb. 1757, and
Admiral Byng was not executed until 14 Mch. following. It is possible that the treatment of
his superior officer may have induced him to take that step, and, at all events, he did not resume
his profession, although on his monument he was described as "Captain Calmady." The same
inscription states that he was the last of his family. He died at his house in James Street,
Buckingham Gate, unmarried, although the journals of the day stated that his fortune devolved
upon "his widow and only surviving child, the lady of John Richardson, Esq., of Bramshot."
His will, as of James Street, Westminster, Esq., dated 24 June 1784, was proved 23 Jan. 1788,
by "Philippa Wilson alias Philippa Calmady, spinster," to whom, as Philippa, commonly called
Philippa Calmady, now living with me." he bequeathed his manor of Mothecombe, and other
lands in co. Devon, inherited from his brother Shilston Calmady, for her life, with remainder to
Cecilia, wife of John Richardson, of Bramshot Place. Hants, Esq. A son, by the same mother,
named Warwick Calmady, became a merchant in London, and died in his father's lifetime. Both
these children were baptized at St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, 31 Mch. 1752, as “Cecilia
Calmady," born 19 June 1748, and "Warwick Calmady," born 16 Oct. 1751, both being described
as the children of "Warwick Calmady by Philippa," and against each entry being written the
words “base-born." It is not unreasonable that, having been faithful to this lady for at least
forty years, treating her to the last moment as his wife, and bestowing upon her and her child
his entire fortune, the journalists should have made the announcement already quoted.

The famous pugilist of his day. He was originally a Thames waterman, plying at
Hungerford stairs, but, accidentally discovering his powers, abandoned that pursuit and became
a professional boxer. He was patronized by the Duke of Cumberland and the nobility generally,
and established a public academy in Tottenham-Court Road. He is said to have been invariably
successful in his contests, until finally defeated by Slack, after which he renounced the profession,
and became a ycoman of the guard. It was from his arms that Rysbracck modelled those of his
celebrated “ Hercules." The journals of the day say that he died at Lambeth, and was buried in
the church there, but it appears that he had honourable interment within the Abbey precincts.
The Funeral Book says that he was buried on the left hand of his wife (see her burial 18 Dec.
1784). His will, as of Walcot Place. St. Mary, Lambeth, without date (but made after his wife's

London, in 1771, and Prebendary of Peterborough 1 Nov. 1781, and held all these preferments

3 The Funeral Book says that she was buried on her husband, Colonel Richmond Webb (see
his burial ō June 1785). The pedigrees of his family describe her as "daughter of J. Griffyths,
of Downton, co. Radnor, Esq." The journals of the day say that she died in Upper Seymour
Street, Portman Square. Her will, dated 9 May 1789, was proved 10 Junc following, by her

the person named in the text. He became a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal and one of the
Abbey choir, and was a great favourite of Handel during his management of the oratorios. The
journals of the day say that he was buried from his house in the Little Cloisters, with musical
services. His will, dated 22 Jan. 1788, was proved 19 Aug. 1789. His bequests were to his wife
Mary (see her burial 16 June 1810), his sister Elizabeth Barrow, of Clapham Common, co. Surrey,

St. Margaret's, Westminster, 10 Jan. 1760. His will, as of Abingdon Street, Westminster, dated

Forces, dated at Madras 15 Nov. 1788, was proved 16 Apl. 1791, by his brothers, Sir James
Campbell, Kt., and Duncan Campbell, Esq. The former was to be the chief inheritor under the
will, subject to the following proviso, which may be considered somewhat remarkable at his
period: "Should my brother, Major James Campbell, be so infatuated as to connect himself
with any other woman than his lawful wife, it is my positive order that he shall from that hour
be struck out of my will and testament, in the same manner as if his existence had naturally
terminated the man who is capable of injuring an amiable wife and family by such connections.
forfeits the character of an honest and honourable man, and can have no claim to any share of
my confidence or fortune."

his life to literature and philanthropy, and his character and conduct elicited for him from Pope

1 According to the Chapter Book, he was appointed Clerk of the Works 2 Mch. 1781. See
the burial, probably of his first wife, but perhaps his sister, 9 Sep. 1783, and that of his son
22 Nov. 1787. His will, as of Dean's Yard, carpenter, dated 29 May 1792, was proved 24 Nov.
following, by his relict Sarah, to whom he left all his estate.
2 Infant of Rev. Samuel Smith, LL.D. (see his burial 31 Mch. 1808), by Susanna his second

3 The celebrated commander in the war of the American Revolution. Son of John
Burgoyne, Esq. (second son of Sir John Burgoyne, third Bart. of Sutton, co. Beds), by Anna-
Maria, dau. of Charles Burneston, of Hackney, co. Midx., Esq. He was born the 4th, and
baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 5 Feb. 1722-3, as the son of these parents, although the
gossip of the day assigned his paternity to Robert, Lord Bingley (see his burial 14 Apl. 1731),
and it must be acknowledged that certain bequests in that nobleman's will give some warrant
for the scandal. He, however, called this child, then six years old, his "godson." His coffin-
plate described him as "the Right Hon. John Burgoyne, Lieut.-General of His Majesty's Forces,
Colonel of the Fourth Regiment of Foot, and one of His Majesty's most honourable Privy
Council of the Kingdom of Ireland." See the burials, of his wife 14 June 1776, and of his
daughter 10 Mch. 1764. His will, dated 10 Sep. 1783, then Lieut.-General, and Commander-in-
Chief in Ireland, with a codicil 1 June 1788, was proved 22 Aug. 1792. Besides his bequests to
his relations, he left £4000 to Mrs. Susan Caulfield, late of Bury Street, Westminster, but then
residing in Park Street, Dublin, for herself and for the education of her son John, who was born
in Queen Street, Soho, on or about 25 July 1782, and in the codicil stated that she had since the
date of his will had two daughters, named Maria and Caroline, and another son, named Edward,
all of whom had "equal claims to his care and protection" with her said son John, and were to
share his bequests equally.
4 According to the journals of the day, he was born near Kirk-Oswald, co. Cumberland, and
he appears to have been the son of a clergyman of the Church of England of the same names.
He studied abroad, taking his degree of M.D. at Rheims, and in 1766 was admitted a Licentiate
of the Royal College of Physicians of London. He was the first physician appointed to the
Westminster Lying-in-Hospital, and is regarded as the founder of that institution. He died at
his house in Parliament Street. His will, as of Down Street, St. George's, Midx., dated 2 July
1755 (sic), was proved 14 Aug. 1792, by his brother William Leake, who was described at its
date as a surgeon at St. Philip's, in the island of Minorca, to whom he left all his personal effects
and his interest in an estate called "Saugh Shields," near St. John's Chapel, Weardale,
co. Durham, then in possession of his aunt, Mrs. Ann Gibson, and which was to devolve at her
death on his said brother, his eldest sister, and himself. His only other bequest was to Mrs. Rose
Carr, of Down Street, who had nursed him during a tedious illness.
The place of burial sufficiently indicates her humble position,

1 Son of Anthony Gell, Esq., Receiver-General of the Abbey (see his burial 4 Feb. 1817),
by Frances his wife (sce her burial 7 Feb. 1825). He was born 1 Dec. 1778, and baptized at
St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, 1 Jan. 1779.
2 There is no date in the Register, and the entry follows, instead of preceding, that of
Ann Cotton, but the Funeral Book says: "Stephen Homes, watchman, buried 31 Dec. 1792."
3 The Funeral Book calls her "an almswife." She was wife of Matthew Cotton, one of the
almsmen (see his burial 16 Oct. 1800). See her daughter's burial 16 June 1772.
4 Relict of William Seymore, one of the sacrists, etc. (see his burial 18 Apl. 1768). to whom
married, at Bromley, co. Kent, 16 Sep. 1750. as Esther Brett, spinster. The Funeral Book gives
her age as seventy-nine. See the burials of her children, 10 Jan. 1759 and 5 Dec. 1760, and of
her sister, Susanna Francis, 9 Sep. 1801. By her will, dated 6 Jan. and proved 8 Apl. 1793, she
left legacies to numerous relations of the name of Brett, and to the descendants of her deceased
sister Martha Stych.
5 The Funeral Book says that he was a servant to the Rev. Dr. Bell (see his burial 8 Oct.
1816), and gives his age as seventy. He was a son of John Kettlewell. almsman (see his burial
14 Apl. 1757), by Mary his wife (see her burial 8 Feb. 1736-7), and either he, or an elder brother
of the same name, was born 12 Nov., and baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 4 Dec. 1715.
As the Register and Funeral Book do not agree as to his age, it is probable that both are wrong,
and that he was really in his seventy-eighth year.
6 Pope's "silver-tongued Murray.” Fourth son of David, fifth Viscount Stormont, by
Margery, only dau. of David Scott, of Scotstarvet, co. Fife, Esq. He was born at the Abbey of
Scone 2 Mch. 1704-5. He became Solicitor-General in 1742, Attorney-General in 1754, and Lord
Chief Justice of the King's Bench S Nov. 1756, on which day he was created Baron Mansfield.
He was created Earl of Mansfield 31 Oct. 1776. He died without issue, and was succeeded by
his nephew (sce his burial 9 Sep. 1796). See his wife's burial 20 Apl. 1784. His will, dated
17 Apl. 1782, with nineteen codicils, was proved on the day of his burial, by his said nephew,
David, Earl of Mansfield. Lord Mansfield has always been regarded as one of the most brilliant
ornaments of Westminster School, and his affection for that institution appears to have been
very strong, for almost the first passage in his will is the following: I desire to be buried
privately, and, from the love I bear to the place of my early education, I wish it to be in
Westminster Abbey."
7 His will, as of Queen Aune Street East, St. Marylebone, Midx., Esq., dated 18 Mch. 1793,
was proved 5 Apl. following, by his son Harcourt Weston, Esq. He left all his estate and effects
equally to his wife Louisa and his children by her (see her burial 10 July 1799).
8 Dau. of Rev. Dr. Charles Wake, Prebendary of Westminster and incumbent of St. Mar-
garet's, Westminster, who died 1 Nov. 1796. The Gentleman's Magazine, noticing her death,
says:
This amiable and beautiful young lady was on the eve of marriage, but a putrid fever put
a period to her life in a very few days." The same authority erroneously gives the date of her
death as 6 April.

captain-lieutenant 7 July 1779, and captain 1 Dec. 1782.

6 Dec. 1773 and 26 Aug. 1818. The latter, as her only surviving child, administered to her

4 Second son and sixth child of Hugh, second Duke of Northumberland (see his burial

dau. of Alexander, fourth Lord Elibank. He succeeded as fourth Bart. 13 Dec. 1772. He was
a Lieut.-Colonel in the army, and M.P. for co. Dumfries. On the death of the third Marquis of
Annandale, in 1792, he became the head of the family of Johnstone, and was claimant of the
Marquisate. He is usually said in the accounts of the family to have died unmarried, but see
the burial of his relict 17 Apl. 1797. The Funeral Book says that he was buried in the South-
East Cloisters, near the iron gate." His will, dated 12 Mch. 1790, with codicils 28 Jan. 1794,
was proved 21 Mch. 1796, by his said relict, to whom he bequeathed the estates in the island of
Grenada left to him by his brother Alexander Johnstone (see his burial 21 Jan. 1783), with
remainder to his brother William Pultency (see his burial 11 June 1805), and the latter became
his general heir. Besides liberal bequests to his own family, he provided generously for his
illegitimate dau. Anne, then wife of a shop-keeper in Carlisle, named Scott, and for his illegiti-
mate son James-Murray Johnstone, and his mother Jean Swanston, of Romford, co. Essex,
spinster.
• Illegitimate dau. of Hugh, first Duke of Northumberland (see his burial 21 June 1786).
The Gentleman's Magazine (1794, p. 1060) says that she died at Brompton, in consequence of
grief for the loss of her elder sister (sec her burial 24 Nov. 1791), and speaks very warmly of the
character of the two sisters, and the devotion of their father to their interests. They were not,
however, named in his will. Her will, as of St. Marylebone, Midx., dated 1 Apl., with a codicil
22 Oct. 1794, was proved 8 Dec. following, by Margaret Marriott, of Baker Street, Portman
Square, widow, to whom she left all her possessions. After the death of her executrix, sums of
£1000 each were to be paid to two French ladies, and £3000 to her "half-brother, James Macie,

were not children of the same mother. This half-brother, whose beneficence subsequently
founded the well-known " Smithsonian Institution" at the city of Washington, in the United
States of America, already taking high rank among similar scientific institutions throughout the
world, died at Genoa, Italy, in 1826. In carly life he was known as James-Lewis Macic, and in
that name was created M.A. at Oxford, 26 May 1786, having matriculated from Pembroke
College 7 May 1782, aged seventeen, paying the fees of an Esquire's son, but his father's name
not being recorded. A few years after he assumed his father's family name of Smithson, and
his will, dated in Bentinck Street, Cavendish Square, Midx., 23 Oct. 1826, thus commences:
"I, James Smithson, son of Hugh, first Duke of Northumberland, and Elizabeth, heiress of the
Hungerfords of Audley, and niece of Charles, the Proud Duke of Somerset."
1 Relict of Mr. James IIindes (see his burial 13 June 1771). Her will, as late of Duke
Street, Westminster, but then of St. Luke's, Chelsea, Midx., widow, dated 27 Mch. 1777, was
proved 24 Jan. 1795, by John Morris, who, at its date, was living with the Earl of Pembroke,
and whom she made her residuary legatec, in consideration of his faithful services. She directed
to be buried in the Cloisters with her husband, but named no other relations.
2 His will, as of Cowley Street, Westminster, Esq., dated 8 Jan. 1793, was proved by his
eldest son Arthur Ormsby, Esq., but not until 5 Dec. 1803. He directed to be buried in the
Cloisters, near his dau. Mary (sce her burial 29 Jan. 1790). To his said son Arthur he bequeathed
the rents of his estate of Birdhill alias Knockameen, co. Tipperary. The residue of his estate
he gave to his wife Elizabeth (see her burial 28 Mch. 1803), with remainder to his children, said
Arthur Ormsby, James Ormsby, of the Inner Temple, Esq., and Elizabeth Ormsby, spinster.
He was perhaps a son of Francis Ormsby, of Willowbrook, co. Sligo, Esq., who died in 1751, by
Mary, dau. of Arthur French, of French Park, co. Roscommon, Esq. See the burial, probably of
his grandson, 21 Apl. 1810.
³ Died, lately, at Brompton, after a long and severe indisposition, Mrs. Simpson, wife of
James Simpson, Esq., of Chancery Lane (Gent. Mag., Apl. 1795).
4 Relict of Joseph Strutt, of Moulsham, in Chelmsford, co. Essex, Esq., who died 29 May
1772, aged seventy, and was buried at Terling, in that county. They were the great-grandparents
of John-James, first Lord Rayleigh. Her will, as of West Ham, co. Essex, dated 17 May 1777,
was proved 11 Apl. 1795. She gave to her son John Strutt, Esq., £20, and bequeathed all the
estate devised to her by her said husband, and by her late brother Mr. Nathaniel Bridges, to her
three daughters, Elizabeth, wife of Rev. Dr. Foote Gower, and Ann and Sarah Strutt, spinsters,
as tenants in common. They all proved the will, the first as Elizabeth Gower, widow, and the
others as still unmarried. Dr. Gower, who had been presented to the rectory of Great Chignal,
co. Essex, in 1761, by John Strutt, of Terling, Esq., his brother-in-law, died 16 May 1780, and
was buried in the Abbey church at Bath. The daughter, Ann Strutt, died unmarried in 1803, her
sister Sarah, also unmarried, surviving her.
5 Rightly David Walter Morgan, and so called on his monument, crected by his only
surviving son, Col. John-Drigue Morgan, which described him as Doctor of Laws, minor canou
of the Abbey, priest in ordinary of the Chapel Royal, and Vicar of Little Leighs, co. Essex.
One of his names matriculated at Oxford, from Hertford College, 14 Junc, 1759, aged twenty-
five, as son of William Morgan, of St. George's, Southwark, co. Surrey, but his name does not
occur in the lists of graduates, either of Oxford or Cambridge, and this man, as Rev. Dr. Morgan,

his widow had a grant of ten guineas from the Chapter 23 Mch. 1795. It will be noticed that

he must have gone to Oxford the year after his marriage. See the burials of his children,

3 According to the Chapter Book, he was appointed Coroner of Westminster and Clerk of

accounts at his death, and, according to the journals of the day, had been secretary to the
Bishops of Chichester and Rochester. His will, as of Dean's Yard, Westminster, Gent., dated
in 1788, was proved 5 Oct. 1795, by his only surviving son, Nathan-Seddon Prickard, power being
reserved for his relict Ann. His only other surviving child was his daughter Margaret, then
unmarried. To his son John he bequeathed his lands and tenements in Cwm-dauddwr and
Rhayader, co. Radnor, and his other relations named were his brother John Prickard, his sister
Winifred Griffith, his niece Winifred Chandler, his nephew James Hamer, and his nephew
William Davies, son of his sister Barbara. He was grandfather of the late Thomas Prickard,

remainders, but on the death of Rev. Mr. Gee, 18 Apl. 1815, said Robert Whyte, his brother
William being dead, succeeded to the estates, and had the royal license, 26 May following, to take
the name of Moyser. She had outlived all her family, her nearest relations, to whom she left
her estates, being the descendants of James Gee, of Bishop Burton, co. York, Esq., by Constantia
his wife, daughter of her grandfather, John Moyser, of Beverley, Esq.. by his second wife, she
herself having descended from his first wife. She left handsome legacies to numerous friends, to
whom she appears to have been under obligations in carlier life, and was especially generous to
her servants.
1 His wife's monument describes him as sometime Judge of the Court of Admiralty and
Receiver-General of the Casual Revenue in the Island of Barbados, and the journals of the day
say that he died at his apartments at Exeter. His will, as of Bridgetown, Barbados, Esq.,
dated 22 Apl. 1793, with a codicil 7 Feb. 1796, was proved 18 Apl. following. He directed to be
buried, if he died at Barbados, in the church of St. Michael, in the grave with his infant
daughter Catharine, but if in Great Britain, or on his passage thither, then in Westminster
Abbey, with his late dear wife (see her burial 10 Mch. 1785) and his infant son and daughter.
Sundry plate, furniture, etc., was to be sent to a house in or near Exeter, co. Devon, for the use
of his present wife Mary-Judith, and he made provision for his two daughters, Anna-Maria and
Catharine-Ann. His real estate in Devonshire he devised to trustees for the use of any son he
might have, with remainder to his daughters. In the codicil he stated that his son William-
Cholmley Morris, born 12 Aug. 1793, would inherit his estate under his will, and bequeathed
£1500 to his daughter Caroline-Augusta, born 17 Jan. 1795, when twenty-one or married. His
relict, Mary-Judith, with two other executors, proved the will.
* The celebrated translator or editor of Ossian's Poems. According to his monument, he was
born at Ruthven, co. Inverness, 27 Oct. 1736, but little appears to be known of his family. From
1764 to 1766 he was in America, as secretary to the Governor of Pensacola, aud on his return
settled in London, and devoted himself to literary pursuits. During the latter part of his life he
was agent to the Nabob of Arcot, and was M.P. for Camelford, co. Cornwall, from 1780 until his
death. He died at his seat called Belleville, in the parish of Alvie, co. Inverness, unmarried, and
was buried in the Abbey according to his directions. His will, as of Fludyer Street, Westminster,
of Putney Common, co. Surrey, and of Belleville, co. Inverness, Esquire, and M.P'. for Camelford,
dated 7 June 1793, with a codicil 10 Sep. following, was proved 26 Mch. 1796. The only direct
relations he named were the children of his deceased sister Janet Clark, and his nephew John
MacIntire, Capt. of Artillery in the East India Company's service. He left considerable legacies
to several friends, but the most of his large estate to several illegitimate children, with annuities
to their various mothers.
3 The celebrated architect and surveyor-general of the Board of Works, F.R.S., F.S.A., and
treasurer of the Royal Academy. He is said to have descended from an ancient Scottish family,
but to have been born at Stockholm, in Sweden, where his father was settled as a merchant. He
was the architect of the present Somerset House, in the Strand. He was never knighted in
England, but had the rank of knight-bachelor, and the appellation "Sir," from having received
from the King of Sweden the Order of the Polar Star. His age, as stated in the text, makes him
five years older than is usually stated in the accounts of him. His will, as of Whitton Place, and
of Norton Street, and late of Berners Street, co. Midx., Knight, dated 19 June 1795, with two
codicils, was proved 16 Mch. 1796. His bequests were to his wife Dame Catherine, his only son

Catherine, died 29 Jan. 1798.
1 According to her monument, she was the wife of Rev. Robert-Poole Finch. D.D., Canon of
Westminster, and was born in 1729. See her husband's burial 26 May 1803.
2 He had been College beadle, but resigned and was succeeded by his son John 29 July 1794.
See the burials, of his wife 4 Nov. 1788, and of his children, 24 Mch. 1766. 26 Mch. 1788, and
5 Nov. 1827. His will, as of Chapel Street, St. Margaret's, Westminster. Gent., dated 27 June
1795, was proved 26 Mch. 1796, by his son John, residuary legatce. His only other bequest
was the reversion of £300 to his grand-daughter Jane Fenn, then a minor, after his said son's
death.
3 Probably a daughter of Mr. John-Stafford Smith, who was connected with the Chapel
Royal as early as 1776, and is mentioned in the preface to Sir John Hawkin's History of Music.
The Funeral Book gives her age as eleven years and six months, and says that she was buried at
the head of " Long Meg."
According to his family records, he was third son and fourth child of John Dupuis and
Susannah his wife, who were natives of France, but he was born in England 5 Nov. 1733, and
was therefore in his sixty-third year at his death. His father is said to have occupied some
position about the Court, and was educated in the Chapel Royal, under the celebrated Bernard
Gates (sec his burial 23 Nov. 1773), whose principal heir he finally became. He was appointed
organist and composer to the Chapel Royal in 1779, and the degree of Doctor of Music was con-
ferred upon him at Oxford 26 June 1790. He died at his house in King's Row, Park Lane. His
will, as Thomas-Sanders Dupuis, dated the day before his death, was proved on the 26th of the
same month. He directed to be buried at Fulham, on the coffin of his dear wife, but his wish
appears not to have been regarded. He bequeathed £50 to Letitia Dupuis, relict of his late son
Rev. Thomas-Skelton Dupuis, and the rest of his estate, except legacies to several friends, to his
only surviving son Charles Dupuis, but, if he should die unmarried, it was then to go to Samuel
Arnold, Doctor of Music (see his burial 29 Oct. 1802), and his children.
5 The Funeral Book, quoting her coffin-plate, says that she was born 4 July 1796. See her
mother's burial 31 Jan. 1812, and note thereto.
• Eldest son of David, sixth Viscount Stormont, by Anne, only daughter and heir of John
Stewart, of Inneryntie, Esq., and born 9 Oct. 1727. He succeeded his father as seventh Viscount
Stormout 23 July 1748, and his uncle William (sce his burial 28 Mch. 1793) as second Earl of
Mansfield. The Funeral Book describes him as LL.D., President of H.M.'s most honourable
Privy Council, and Knight of the most ancient Order of the Thistle. He was twice married,
and left issue.
7 His monument described him as Clerk of the Journals and Engrossments to the House of

Lords, and the journals of the day say that he had been in that service more than forty years.
His will, as of College Street, Westminster, Gent., dated 12 Jan. 1796, was proved 20 Feb. 1797.
He bequeathed his house, etc., to his wife Sarah (see her burial 9 Nov. 1798), also his lands, etc.,
at or near Oswestry, co. Salop, with remainder to his sister-in-law, Anne Jones, of Oswestry,
spinster, and, after her death, to his brother Nicholas Croft, of Milton-Abbott, co. Devon, with
remainder to his daughters, Sarah Moon and Mary Anne Patey. He evidently left no issue.
¹ Her monument described her as the wife of Michael Harc, Esq. (see his burial 18 Nov.
1807), and gave her age as forty-eight, which is correct. She was the youngest child of James
Merest, Esq., assistant-clerk of the House of Lords, by Janc his second wife, dau. of Charles
Battely, Esq. (see her baptism 16 Mch. 1706-7, and note thereto). She was born the 3rd, and
baptized at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 27 June 1748, and was married to Mr. Hare, at
St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 19 Nov. 1770. Sce the burials, of her father's first wife
17 Nov. 1727, and of the daughter and son of her sister Charlotte Fisher, 8 Mch. 1813, and
21 Dec. 1821.
2 First wife of Mr. Alcxander Pope, for some years the principal tragedian at Covent Garden
Theatre. She is said to have descended from a good family of the name of Young, and to have
been much esteemed as an actress by Garrick. According to the journals of the day, she was
married to Mr. Pope, at Dublin, cither 9 or 11 Aug. 1785. She died at her house in Half-Moon
Street, Piccadilly, and was buried, according to the London Chronicle, "between the remains
of Sir Richard Jebb and Doctor Dupuis." See the burial of her husband's second wife, June
1803.
3 Eldest dau. of Charles Tufnell, Esq., grandson of Capt. Edward Tufnell (sce his burial
11 Sep. 1719), by his wife and kinswoman, Mary, dau. of Alexander Haselar. She married, at
St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, 20 Dec. 1792, Rev. Thomas-Watson Ward, sometime one
of the ushers of Westminster School, but then Vicar of Felmersham, co. Beds, and afterwards
Vicar of Sharnbrook, in the same county, where he died 30 May 1825, aged sixty-three. See
the baptisms of her children, 24 Feb. 1795 and 26 Mch. 1797, and the burials, of her son 24 May
1808, and of her husband's second wife, 1 May 1807.
4 The date of her death in the text is undoubtedly that of her burial, as all the journals of
the day say that she died 9 April. She was the relict of Sir James Johnstone, fourth Bart. of
Westerball, co. Dumfries (see his burial 17 Sep. 1794), being so described on her monument and
in her will, and recognized as his wife in his will, although the peerages usually say that he died
unmarried. There was a considerable mystery about her antecedents which it has been some-
what difficult to solve, but she appears to have been a daughter of a Mr. Colclough, by his wife
Elizabeth-Mary-Louisa, illegitimate daughter of Sir Thomas Montgomerie, an Irish knight, by
Clemence, daughter of Sir William Hovell, of Hillington, co. Norfolk, Kt., and wife of Charles
Stuart, Esq., father of Sir Simeon Stuart, second Bart. of Hartley-Mauduit. Sir Thomas
Montgomerie had four other children by this lady, some of them certainly during the lifetime of
her husband, who died the 19th, and was buried at St. James, Westminster, 24 Jan. 1705-6. Sir
Thomas eventually married Mrs. Stuart, at St. Bride's, London, 11 Feb. 1713-14, and was buried
at St. Martin in the Fields, Midx., 23 Mch. 1715-16, she being also buried there 19 Sep. 1720. In
the wills of both of them the five children are recognized as illegitimate, and in that of
Sir Thomas the date of birth of the only son is precisely given as 1 Jan. 1703-4, and the mother
of Lady Johnstone was old enough at his death to be his executrix. Lady Johnstone appears to
have had a former husband, Rev. Mr. Merrick, but was married to Sir James Johnstone before
3 July 1759, as is distinctly stated in his will. Her age at her death is not given either on her
monument, in the Register, or in the Funeral Book, but her mother was not married until after
1720, in which year she proved her own mother's will, as a spinster. Lady Johnstone's will, as
WESTMINSTER ABBEY.

The place of burial sufficiently indicates his humble position.
2 Third son of the Right Rev. Richard Smalbroke. Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry, by
Catherine his wife (see her burial 15 Mch. 1765). He had been for many years Principal Registrar
of the diocese of Lichfield and Coventry, and died at his house in Parliament Street. His will,
dated 31 May 1796, was proved 21 June 1797, by his brother Richard Smalbroke, LL.D. (see his
burial 14 May 1805), as residuary legatee. His personal bequests, amounting to upwards of
£10,000, were to his brother Rev. Dr. Samuel Smalbroke, his nephews Rev, Dr. William Vyse
and Major-General Richard Vyse, his nieces Mary and Georgiana Vyse and Mrs. Wynn, and his
cousins, Capt. John Brooks, Rev. Mr. Oldershaw, and Mrs. Lyons.
3 The journals of the day described her as the wife of Colonel Robertson, of the Royal
Independent Invalids, and the Scots Magazine as Mrs. Crawford Leslie, spouse of Colonel
William Robertson." Her monument merely called her the wife of Colonel William Robertson
(see his burial in June 1802). The date of her burial is not given either in the Register or the
Funeral Book. See burials in the same Cloister, 8 Jan. 1812 and 7 Jan. 1836.

5 First wife of Isaac-Charles Dare (see his burial 12 Feb. 1810). See the baptism of her
daughter 25 July 1793, and the burial, probably of her son, 5 Mch. 1804.
According to the Chapter Book, William Miles, of Tufton Street, Westminster, was
appointed Clerk of the Works 12 Dec. 1792, and was dismissed 23 July 1803. But apparently
another of the same name was appointed College glazier 6 June 1793, and had a gratuity of ten
guineas some time later, on account of having been hurt by a fall from a window. This was
probably a child of the former. See the burial, doubtless of her brother, 9 Mch. 1799.
7 Only surviving son of Captain George Johnston, descended from the family of that name of
Hilton, co. Berwick, who, on quitting the service, became an army agent in Dublin, by Hester,
dau. of Rev. James Bland, Dean of Ardfert, in Ireland. He entered the army as a cornet of
dragoons 1 Oct. 1736, was engaged in subsequent continental campaigns, and attained the rank
of General 25 Oct. 1793. He was sometime Governor of Quebec, and at his death Colonel of the
Enniskillen regiment of dragoons. According to the journals of the day, he died at Hampton,
after a painful illness. He married, 5 May 1763, Lady Henrietta-Cecilia West, eldest surviving
dau. of John, first Earl Delawarr, who survived him and died 24 Feb. 1817. His will, as of

the latter she left £50, her new silver cruet, etc., for his care and attention to her house during
her illness, and to the former £100, in token of his friendship, and particularly for getting her
£500 to pay for her house, her daughter's husband having promised to do so, and then drawn back
and left her in distress, "for which reason," she wrote, "I solemnly cut off my daughter's husband,
the Rev. Richard Glover, M.A., belonging to St. John's College, Cambridge, from having the most
trifling article belonging to me, nor will I allow his wife, my daughter Sarah Glover, to give him
the liberty to assist her in looking any think (sic) belonging to me, either taking memorandum, or
making inventory, or anything else concerning me." She did not, however, extend her resent-
ment to their eight children, Jane, Marian, John, Thomas, Richard, William, Bright, and Robert
Glover, but left them £5 each.

2 Relict of John Croft, Esq., Clerk of the Journals, etc., to the House of Lords (see his burial

probably of a Shropshire family.
3 He was one of the Gentlemen of the Chapel Royal, and belonged to the choirs of the Abbey
and of Eton. According to the journals of the day, he was buried with a grand funeral service,
performed by the choirs of Westminster, St. Paul, and St. James. His will, dated 15 Dec. 1798,
was proved 24 Jan. 1799, by his relict Jane. His bequests were to his son John Friend, of
Durham Cathedral, and his children Mary and Sarah, and to his daughter Grace Burrows, of the
Haymarket, stationer, and her sons John-Freckleton Burrows and William Burrows.
4 Probably a child of Israel Gore, who was subsequently mentioned in the Chapter Book as
one of the Abbey choir.
5 Probably the first wife of John Fenn, College beadle, etc. (see his burial 5 Nov. 1827), as
she was not named as a daughter in his father's will.
6 See the burial, probably of his sister, 1 Dec. 1797, and note thereto. They were named on

7 The journals of the day call her the relict of John-Alexander Gresse, of Maidenhead, Berks,
Esq. Her will, as of Stephen Street, Tottenham-Court Road, Midx., widow, dated 7 Sep. 1796,
was proved on the day of her burial, by her friend Joseph-Lane Yeomans, of King-Street,
Bloomsbury, to whom and to his children she left all her estate, except a few legacies to other
friends. She directed to be buried in the Abbey, in the clothes she should have on at her death
or in the linen of the bed on which she died. Her husband is named in the catalogues of
painters as a pupil of Cipriani, as one of the first students at the Duke of Richmond's Gallery,
and as afterwards of the Academy in St. Martin's Lane. He died in Feb. 1794, aged about fifty-
three, but did not even name his wife in his will.
8 Son of Colonel Mordaunt Cracherode, by Mary his wife (see her burial 3 Jan. 1785, and

School and Oxford. He was F.R.S. and F.S.A., and a munificent benefactor to the British
Museum, of which institution he became a trustee in 1784. He died unmarried. His will, dated

3 Her maiden name, according to some accounts, was Cole, and she is said to have descended
from the family of that name of Colchester, co. Essex, while others describe her as of Amsterdam.
She married, first, Colonel John Brathwaite, who was slain in 1740, during an engagement with
a Spanish privatecr, by whom she had one son and two daughters. The former, Sir John
Brathwaite, attained the rank of Major-General in the army, and was created a Baronet 18 Dec.
1802. The eldest daughter, Silvia, married the celebrated Bonnell Thornton, Esq., and the other,
Caroline, married Robert Armitage, of Kensington, Esq., and was grandmother of Rev. Brathwaite
Armitage, Vicar of Peterchurch, co. Hereford. Mrs. Brathwaite married, secondly, Rev. Thomas
Winstanley (see his burial 13 Feb. 1789), by whom she appears to have had only one son (see his
burial 29 May 1769). In her will, as of St. Luke's, Chelsea, dated 9 Apl. 1791, with a codicil
26 Feb. 1798, and proved 12 July 1799, she desired that a certain gold knife should not go out of
the family, adding-" it was my grandfather's: he had it in his pocket when he fled from France
in the time of persecution: it was his father's." This throws some doubt upon at least the first
of the above statements respecting her ancestry. She directed to be buried in the Cloisters, by
her "dear Tom."
4 Her monument described her as the relict of Robert Weston, Esq. (see his burial 30 Mch.
1793), and the journals of the day say that she died at her apartments in Kensington Palace.
5 His monument described him as "Clerk of the Papers to the House of Lords upwards of
thirty years." His will, as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, dated 18 Jan., with a codicil
30 May 1799, was proved 7 Aug. following, by his relict Harriet (see her burial 23 Dec. 1831)
and by his "first cousin" Mr. William Walmesley the elder. His "frechold" at Croydon was to
go, after his wife's death, to Mary, wife of said William Walmesley, and their issue. He appears
to have lived at No. 2 Great College Street, Westminster.
6 According to the Chapter Book, Richard Atkins, a poor man, was nominated to Emery
Hill's almshouses 27 Dec. 1798. The place of burial sufficiently indicates his humble position.
7 Only dau. of Sir William Milner, first Bart. of Nun-Appleton, co. York, by Elizabeth, only
surviving dau. of The Most Rev. Sir William Dawes, third Bart. of Putney, Archbishop of York.
She was married 19 Sep. 1768, and died without issue, according to the journals of the day, at
Ham, co. Surrey. See her husband's burial 16 June 1788.
8 His will, as of St. John the Evangelist, Westminster, "late peruke maker," dated 26 July
1785, was proved 28 Nov. 1799, by Mary, his second wife and relict, to whom he left all his
possessions, except five guineas to his nephew John Coward, of Ambleside, near Kendal, co. West-
moreland. He directed to be buried in the Cloisters with his late wife (see her burial 25 July

¹ Son of Rev. Dr. William-Whitfield Dakins. Precentor of the Abbey (see his burial 21 Jan.

baptism 22 May 1784. The date of his burial is not given either in the Register or Funeral Book.
3 His monument describes him as son of Rev. Richard Warren, D.D., Rector of Cavendish
and Archdeacon of Suffolk, and brother of Richard Warren. M.D., many years physician in
ordinary to the King, and states that he died in his seventy-second year, which is probably
correct, as he was A.B. at Cambridge, as of Caius College in 1750, and would not be likely to
have had that degree at the age of nineteen. He took his degree of A.M. in 1754, and that of
S.T.P. in 1772. He became a Prebendary of Ely 23 Jan. 1768. was consecrated Bishop of
St. David's 19 Sep. 1779, and was translated to Bangor 28 May 1783. He died, according to the
journals of the day, at his house in George Street. Westminster. His will, dated 20 Mch. 1798,
was proved 22 Apl. 1800, by his relict Elizabeth, sole legatee (see her burial 10 Apl. 1816).

Greville, eighth Lord Brooke, created Earl Brooke and Earl of Warwick, who died at Warwick
Castle 6 July 1773, by whom, according to her coffin-plate, she had three sons and five daughters.
She married, secondly. General Robert Clerk, whose will, dated 24 Dec. 1796, she proved 26 May
1797. See her brother's burial 5 June 1744.
5 Staats-Long Morris, son of James Morris, of Morrisania, near the city of New York, U.S.A.,
Esq., by Eleanor, second dau. of Augustus Van Cortlandt, Esq., a descendant of the ancient
family of that name in the State of New York. He entered the army, and was a Captain as early
as 1759, when he raised a battalion of nine hundred men in Scotland, and 'attained the rank of
General 3 May 1796. He married, first, about 23 Mch. 1756 (Mar. Lic. Fac.). Lady Catharine
Gordon, dau. of William, second Earl of Aberdeen, and relict of Cosmo-George, third Duke of
Gordon, who died 10 Dec. 1779. His will, dated 10 Dec. 1790, was proved 18 Apl. 1800, by Jane,
his second wife and relict (see her burial 23 Mch. 1801), to whom he bequeathed all his real and
personal estate, except that in America, which he had already disposed of by deed. He appears
to have left no issue.

who assumed the surname of Bowes, and died in April 1776, by whom she had three sons and

Robinson Stoney, of King's county, Ireland, Esq., who also assumed the surname of Bowes, from
whom she was divorced in 1789, and who died 16 Jan. 1810, in the Rules of the King's Bench
prison, where, according to the journals of the day, he had been detained twenty-two years at
the instance of Lady Strathmore and her representatives. She died at Christchurch, Hants, and
is said to have been buried "dressed in a superb bridal dress." See the burial of her father's
first wife 19 Dec. 1724.
1 Dau. of Benjamin Clay, of Southwell, co. Notts, Gent., by Elizabeth his wife and relict,
who was buried at Southwell 21 May 1781. She was born at Southwell 28 Dec. 1739, and
married there, 20 Sep. 1762, to Edmund Ayrton, afterwards Doctor of Music (see his burial
28 May 1808). They were the parents of fourteen children, and the grand-parents of the late
celebrated Dr. John-Ayrton Paris. See the burials, of her children, 19 Oct. 1772, 13 July 1776,
2 Jan. 1778, 29 Dec. 1779, and 20 Oct. 1780, and of her grandchild 11 Mch. 1807.
2 Her monument states that she was the daughter of William Wrixon and Mary his wife, of
Ballygiblin, co. Cork, Ireland, and died at Chelsea, Midx., in her seventeenth year. The Funeral
Book, however, gives her age as fifteen Her mother was a daughter of John-Townsend
Becher, Esq. Her eldest brother, William Wrixon, assumed the name of Becher, and was created
a Baronet, as of Ballygiblin, 30 Sep. 1831. See the burial of her father's sister, Mary, Baroness
Ennismore, 11 Aug. 1810.
3 Letters of administration to his estate, as of Millbank, St. John the Evangelist, West-

4 Relict of Licut.-General John Gunning, who died at Naples 10 Sep. 1797, to whom married
about 1768. Her maiden name was Minifie, and she was the authoress of several novels of some
success in their day. She separated from her husband in 1791, and the unfortunate circum-
stances formed one of the most important scandals of the period. The General appears to have
done his wife and daughter justice on his death-bed, as he bequeathed to them his cutirc estate
equally. Her will, dated 20 Oct. 1797, was proved 27 Oct. 1800, by her sister Margaret Minifie,
spinster, to whom she bequeathed all the estate she possessed.
5 An cminent solicitor in Norfolk Street, Strand. He appears to have been admitted to the
Inner Temple, 23 June 1750, as second son of James Wallis, of Knarsdale, co. Northumberland,
Gent. He was an intimate friend of Garrick, and erected the monument to his memory in the
Abbey. See an account of him in the Gentleman's Magazine, 1800, p. 908, which characterizes
this as "the only act of his life that seems entitled to the notice of mankind," and states that
he left his large fortune entirely away from his relatives. On page 917 his character is defended.
His will, as of Norfolk Street, Esq., dated 14 Feb. 1800, with three later codicils, was proved
8 Sep. following, and does not sustain the charge made against him, as he bequeathed to his
brother-in-law Thomas Baxter, the messuage, lands, etc., called The Tower Green, in Knarsdale,
and to Jane Leeson, of Cold-Bath Fields, his late wife's sister, £100, while he recognized his heir-
at-law, and left him £500. He named no other relations, and made Dame Ann Bayly his residuary
legatee, with remainder to her son Lieut.-Colonel Lewis Bayly, who proved the will. See the

His will, as formerly of Horsleydown, Southwark, co. Surrey, but then of St. Mary's, Lambeth,
Gent., dated 22 Jan. 1800, was proved 5 Dec. following, by his son Matthew Cotton. His
bequests were £400 Bank annuities to his dau. Ann, wife of Edward Martin, of Gravesend,
co. Kent, tailor: £200 three per cent. consols to his dau. Joan-Elizabeth, wife of Thomas Shave;
and sundry plate and the residue of his possessions equally to his four younger children, said
Matthew Cotton, Frances Cotton. Sarah Cotton, and William-Miles Cotton. See the burials, of
his sister 1 Feb. 1739-40, of his daughter 16 June 1772, and of his wife 2 Jan. 1793.

Susanna his first wife (see her burial 11 Oct. 1783), and second wife of George Carpenter, second
Earl of Tyrconnel, to whom married, by special license, in Grosvenor House, St. John the Evan-
gelist, Westminster, 3 June 1780, and who survived her until 15 Apl. 1805. She died, according
to the journals of the day, at Lord Strathmore's seat, Gibside, co. Durham, while on a visit, in
her thirty-sixth year.
3 One of the minor canons of the Abbey. He matriculated at Oxford. from Magdalen Hall,
11 May 1769, aged thirty, as son of Francis Willett, of St. Martin in the Fields. Midx., Gent.,
and was B.A. 29 Apl. 1774, and M.A. 23 Feb. 1776. His will, as of St. Margaret's Churchyard,
Westminster, dated 27 Oct. 1790, was proved 8 Jan. 1801, by his eldest son Thomas Willett. He
bequeathed several houses in the Strand. and in Jermyn Strect, Westminster, to his wife Hannah,
who survived him, and certain shares in the Amicable Society to his sons Thomas, Waring, and
Charles, and his daughters Hannah and Lucinda, all being then minors. The youngest son,
Charles, was born 10 Aug., and baptized at St. Margaret's. Westminster, 28 Sep. 1782. He
appears to have been residing at Camden Town, Midx., at his death.
4 Third and youngest son of Major William Markham (see his burial 1 June 1771), by
Elizabeth his wife, and brother of the Most Rev. William Markham, Archbishop of York (see his
burial 11 Nov. 1807). He entered the military service at an early age, and served some time
as a volunteer in America. On his return he raised the 112th regiment, or Royal Musketeers, of
which he became Major-Commandant. Some years later he was appointed Lieut.-Colonel of the
46th regiment, and served with it in America throughout the whole of the revolutionary war.
He died unmarried, and, according to the traditions of his family, was buried wrapped in the
colours of the 112th regiment, which had long before ceased to exist. See the burial of his only
other brother 6 Feb. following.
5 Eldest son of George Staunton, of Cargine, co. Galway, Esq. (descended from a Notting-
hamshire family), by Margaret, dau. of John Leonard, of Carra, in the same county, Esq. He
was born 19 Apl. 1737, and bred to the medical profession, but subsequently became a somewhat
distinguished diplomatist. His last mission was to China, in 1792, an account of which he
published. He was created a Baronet (of Ireland) 31 Oct. 1785. He married, 22 July 1771,
Jane, dau. of Benjamin Collins, of Milford, co. Wilts, Esq., and left issue, but the title is now
extinct. According to the journals of the day, he died from paralysis, at his house in Devonshire
Street, Portland Place. His age was nearly sixty-four.

missioner of lotterics, and continued in that post until his death. He died unmarried.

2 The place of burial sufficiently indicates his humble position.
3 Second wife and relict of General Staats-Long Morris (see his burial 7 Apl. 1800). She
was a Miss or Mrs. Urquhart, and was married about Dec. 1780. Her will, as of Berrymead
Lodge, Acton, Midx., but then residing at Bathwick, co. Somerset, dated 31 July 1800, with a
codicil 15 Mch. 1801, was proved 9 Apl. following, by the Hon. Rufus King, Minister Plenipo-
tentiary from the United States of America to this kingdom, and by Francis Gregor, of
Trewarthenick, co. Cornwall, Esq. All the bequests in her will were to the family of her late
husband General Morris, all of whom were residing in the United States. In the codicil she
bequeathed to Miss Julia Byron £1000, to Miss Urquhart £1000, to dowager Lady Errol £100,
and to Mrs. Gregor and Miss Urquhart her diamonds equally.
4 Letters of administration to her estate, as of Dean's Yard, Westminster, spinster, were
granted, 3 Sep. 1801, to John Pain, her brother and one of her next of kin (see his burial
30 Mch. 1808). The place of burial sufficiently indicates her humble position. The date of her
burial is not given either in the Register or Funeral Book.

Her maiden name was Brett. Sce the burial of her sister, Esther Seymore, 13 Mch. 1793, and

6 Son of Anthony Gell, Receiver-general of the Abbey (see his burial 4 Feb. 1817), by Frances
his wife (see her burial 7 Feb. 1825). He was born 26 May, and baptized at St. Margaret's,
Westminster, 8 June 1764, and was, according to the journals of the day, clerk of the cash book
in the office of the auditor of the Exchequer. He evidently died unmarried.
7 A celebrated tragic actress in her day. She is said to have been the daughter of a
Mr. Strect, an apothecary at Bath, and first married an actor named Dancer, who died 26 Dec.
1759. She married, secondly, about 1768, the celebrated tragedian, Spranger Barry (see his burial
20 Jan. 1777), whose pupil she had been. She married, thirdly, in July 1778, a Mr. Crawford
(whom she also survived), described by one authority as a bad actor, an eccentric indi-
vidual, and an unprofitable husband, much younger than herself," and by another as "a scampish
young Irish barrister, who spent her money, and broke her heart." The journals of the day say
that she died in obscure apartments in Queen Street. Westminster, and that her executor was the
only surviving son of her brother, the late William Street, of Bath, Esq. These accounts, however,
which represent her as reduced to poverty, do not accord with her will, which was dated 9 Jan.
1801, and proved 10 Feb. 1802, by her nephew the Rev. Thomas Street, of Lyncombe and
Widcombe, co. Somerset, of which parishes she described herself, and with whom she was evidently
residing, to whom she bequeathed all her real and personal estate, except £300, which she gave
to her sister Edith Brome, of Ipswich, widow, and her daughters Edith Brome and Eliza Brome,
and the arrears of her annuity of £100 out of the Crow Street theatre in Dublin, which she gave
to her nephew Charles Bromc. She probably died at her lodgings, while on a visit to London.

codicils, was proved 5 Aug. 1802, by the Right Hon. Shute Barrington, Bishop of Durham, whom
she made her residuary legatee, in trust to distribute her large estate. The date of her burial is

• He had been a servant of Bishop Pearce while Dean of Westminster, and, according to the
Chapter Book, was appointed, 11 Feb. 1768, a sacrist and porter of the Little Cloisters, but
shortly resigned both offices, and became, 22 Apl. following, porter of the Great Cloisters, sealer,
keeper of the College water, and a bell-ringer, all which offices he held, as well as those of
chamberlain and messenger, at his death. His will, dated 31 July 1797, was proved 23 Sep. 1802,
by his relict Susanna (sce her burial 10 Nov. 1818), to whom he left all his real and personal
estate whatsoever. See the baptisms of his children, 2 Apl. 1769, 6 Jan. 1771, 18 Oct. 1772,

7 He is said to have been a native of London, and was born, according to his monument,
10 Aug. 1740. He was educated in music under the celebrated Bernard Gates and Dr. Nares,
and so rare was his proficiency that he became composer to Covent Garden Theatre in his
twenty-third ycar. His popularity became so deservedly great that the University of Oxford
conferred upon him 5 July 1773, the degree of Doctor of Music. The matriculation register
fortunately preserved his father's name, which appears not to have been heretofore known to

to the Chapel Royal, and in 1793 organist of the Abbey. He married, in 1771, Mary-Anne, dau.
of Archibald Napier, M.D., who survived him. She administered to his estate 6 Dec. 1802, when
his personalty was sworn under £2000. He left a son, Samuel-James Arnold, to whom further

Annonay, in France, but late of St. James, Westminster. She was a daughter of Richard Guise,
master of the choristers, etc. (sce his burial 17 Mch. 1806, and note thereto), who, in his will,
mentioned her surviving husband, and her son by each husband.
2 His will, as of Southampton Row, St. George's, Bloomsbury, Midx., Esq., dated 22 Mch.
1802, was proved 5 Feb. 1803, by his son John Murray, of No. 61 Upper Seymour Street,
St. Marylebone, Esq. To his wife Elizabeth he bequeathed all the plate, furniture, etc., in the
house then occupied by her in the town of Monmouth, and £100 per annum for life, and to Mary
Murray, then living with her, £20 for mourning. To his relation, Ann Murray, then living with
him in his house in Southampton Row, he gave the house No. 16 Southampton Row, for the rest
of the lease, and the use of the plate, furniture, etc., in his own dwelling-house. All the rest of
his real and personal estate he left to his friends Randle Wilbraham, of Rode Hall, co. Chester,
Esq., Richard Welch, of Lower Seymour Street, St. Marylebone, Esq., and the Rev. Matthew
Skinner, of Richmond, co. Surrey, in trust for his said son John Murray, his wife Sarah, and
their children, for their lives, with remainder in succession to John Murray, then a cadet (if not
higher) in the H. E. I. Co.'s service, on the Bengal Establishment, and Charles Murray, brothers
of said Ann Murray, and their sons and heirs male, with final remainder to his own right
heirs.
3 Her will, as of Titchfield Street, St. Marylebone, Midx., widow, made 25 Feb. 1803, was
proved 18 Mch. following, by John Catlin and John Mansir, of Whitecross Street, London, agent
to Messrs. Calvert and Company, brewers. The will shows that she was the relict of William
Cawood. To her sister Jane Bird, of the city of Chester, widow, she bequeathed an annuity of
£42 for life, to be paid by her bankers in Pall Mall or at Chester, out of the rents of her four
houses in Duke Street, Manchester Square, and in Tottenham-Court Road. To Rebecca and Mary
Whatmore, children of Sarah Whatmore, her late husband's sister, to David Lewis, of Egham,
co. Surrey, clock and watch maker, nephew of her said husband, and to James, Mary, and
Diana, children of John Harris, late of Winchester Street, London, another nephew of her said
husband, she left considerable legacies, making the latter three children her residuary legatees.
Her other bequests were to persons evidently not relations. The probate act states that her said
sister Jane Bird was her only next of kin. She directed to be buried in the middle aisle of the
Abbey, near the organ.

theatre in 1797. According to the journals of the day, she was seized with an apoplectic fit,
June 10, while performing the character of Desdemona, and a second attack proved fatal. They
also say that she was buried 25 June, which supplies the date omitted by both the Register and
Funeral Book. Her names are probably rightly given on her monument and in the Funeral
Book as Maria-Ann.

heir of the Right Hon. Hans Stanley, Governor of the Isle of Wight, and second wife of Welbore

Court Road. She directed to be buried in the Cloisters, expressing her desire that her remains

that an incision may be made in my throat by cutting the windpipe." The Funeral Book says
that she was buried in the Dark Cloister. (Whitlock More, bachelor, and Mary Willis, spinster

1746).

bequeathed her entire estate. In the codicil she gave sums varying from £10 to £100 to

1 Author of the well-known Domestic Medicine, or, the Family Physician. He is said to
have been a native of Ancrum, near Jedburgh, in Roxburghshire, Scotland. He was educated at
Edinburgh, and became Physician to the Foundling Hospital at Ackworth, in Yorkshire, and
afterwards practised at Sheffield, but eventually returned. to Edinburgh, became a Fellow of the
Royal College of Physicians, and remained there some years, having married a lady named Peter.
His celebrated work was first published in 1769. He eventually removed to London, where he
enjoyed a lucrative practice. He died, according to the journals of the day, at his son's house in
Percy Street, Rathbone Place. His will, dated 30 Jan. 1805, was not proved until 7 Aug. 1806.
To his son, Dr. Alexander-Peter Buchan, he bequeathed all his literary property and MSS., and
the residue of his estate equally to him and his sister Helen Buchan, spinster. both of whom
proved the will. They appear to have been his only surviving children, another son, William,
having died in infancy. Their mother evidently died long before her husband. See his son's
burial 13 Dec. 1824.
2 The place of burial sufficiently indicates her humble position.
3 Second son of the Right Rev. Richard Smalbroke. Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry, by
Catherine his wife (see her burial 15 Mch. 1765). The Register gives his age incorrectly, and the
same error was repeated on his monument. He matriculated at Oxford, from University College,
18 Oct. 1733, aged seventeen, and was B.A. 25 June 1736. He was, therefore, eighty-nine at his
death, and the Funeral Book gives that as his age. He succeeded his brother Thomas as
Chancellor of the diocese of Lichfield in 1778, having occupied that post jointly with him since
1742. He died, according to the journals of the day, at his house in Hamilton Street. Piccadilly.
His will, dated 12 Sep. 1797, with a codicil 19 Oct. 1804, was proved 18 May 1805. by his nephew
Rev. William Vyse, D.D., principal legatec. See his brother's burial 17 June 1797.

was born, according to the Funeral Book, 23 Oct. 1803.
5 William Johnstone, third son of Sir James Johnstone, third Bart. of Westerhall, by Barbara
Murray, dau. of Alexander, fourth Lord Elibank. See the burials of his brothers, 21 Jan. 1783
and 17 Sep. 1794, the latter of whom he succeeded as fifth Bart. He married, first, 10 Nov. 1760,
Frances, dau. of Daniel Pulteney, Esq. (see her burial 8 June 1782), and, on her succeeding to
the great Bath estates in 1767, assumed the surname of Pultency. He married, secondly, at
Dundas Castle, 5 Jan. 1804, Margaret, relict of Andrew Stuart, of Castlemilk and Torrance, Esq.,
who survived him. The journals of the day say that he was considered the richest commoner in
the kingdom, his funded estate reaching nearly two millions sterling, and that he was the
greatest American stockholder ever known. He died intestate, and letters of administration to
his estate were granted 20 June 1805, to his only child Henrietta-Laura, Countess of Bath (see
her burial 23 July 1808).

Warwick. She married, after 21 Nov. 1776, John Rutherford, Esq. (see his burial 11 Oct. 1782),
who, in his will of that date, bequeathed to her all his estate, as his intended wife. She appears
to have died intestate.
1 Son of John Hunt (see his burial 7 May 1783), by Elizabeth his wife (sce her burial 2 Oct.
1793).
2 Second son of the celebrated William Pitt, first Earl of Chatham (sce his burial 9 June
1778), by Lady Hester his Countess (see her burial 16 Apl. 1803). He was born 28 May, and
baptized at Hayes, co. Kent, 3 July 1759. He was Prime Minister (with the exception of three
years) from 1783 until his death, and was buried at the public expense. He died unmarried,
and deeply in debt, but, in consideration of his services, his obligations, amounting, it is said, to
£40.000, were subsequently discharged from the public purse.
3 His will, as of Leicester Square, St. Anne's, Westminster, dated 21 Feb. 1805, with a
codicil 7 Mch. 1806, was proved on the 20th of the latter month, by his relict Elizabeth. He
bequeathed his freehold estate in Clewer, co. Berks, and £2000 in Imperial annuities, to trustees
for the separate use of his dau. Sarah-Elizabeth Cutler and her children, and his freehold estate
in East Smithfield, Midx., to his grandson Richard-John Barou, when of full age. He also gave
£500, out of a sum due to him from his son-in-law John Wright, to his grandson John-William
Wright, and, if he died in his minority, the same was to go to said Richard-John Barou, whom
he called the brother of said John-William Wright. See the burial of his daughter, Frances
Wright, 17 Nov. 1802.
4 The Funeral Book says Robert Vincent, and that he died 25 Apl., aged two years and three
months. See the burial of his brother, of the same name, 16 Sep. 1807. They were, according

5 The Funeral Book says that he died 9 June, in his seventy-eighth year. The place of burial
sufficiently indicates his humble position.
6 Sec his wife's burial 6 Dec. 1784. In their marriage allegation at the Faculty Office, dated
1 Jan. 1753, he was described as of Henley-on-Thames, co. Oxford, a bachelor, aged twenty-eight.
His will, as of Pall-Mall, St. James, Westminster, Esq., dated 7 Mch. 1795, was proved 23 Dec.
1806, by his eldest son, George-Lanc Blount, residuary legatee. To his youngest son, John-
Burrell Blount, he gave all his investments in the five per cent. annuities. His only other
bequests were fifty guineas to Mr. Hugh Rowland, of St. James's Palace, Gent., and to two
servants. See his son's burial 26 Mch. 1847.
7 One of his name was of King's College, Cambridge, A.B. 1778 and A.M. 1781, and another,
of the same College, was A.B. 1780 and A.M. 1783, but neither of them appears to have had a
Doctor's degree there, nor any one of the name at Oxford. He was installed Prebendary of

He married, in 1795, Mary, second dau. of Sir William Blackstone, the celebrated author of the
Commentaries on the Law of England, who survived him until 1830, but had no issue. His
will, as Doctor of Divinity, Rector of Mersham, Vicar of Shoreham, and Prebendary of West-
minster, dated 26 Dec. 1805, with codicils 20 Aug. and 2 Sep. 1806, was proved 17 Oct. following.

sister Mary, wife of Andrew Long, of Faversham. Kent, Esq.. and their children; his brother-
in-law Charles Stapells. of Mersham aforesaid, Gent., and his children; and to several friends.

¹ The celebrated statesman. Third but second surviving son of Henry, first Lord Holland,
by Lady Georgiana-Caroline Lennox, eldest dau. of Charles, second Duke of Richmond, and born
24 Jan. 1748-9. His political career is too well known to render necessary any account of it
here. He is usually said in the accounts of his family to have married, in 1794, Mrs. Elizabeth-
Bridget Armstead, who survived him, and died 8 July 1842. aged about ninety-seven. They
appear, however, to have been married at Wyton, co. Huntingdon, 28 Sep. 1795, and her name is
given in the parish register as "Elizabeth Blanc." Her will, dated 7 Nov. 1840 and proved
27 July 1842, gives no clew to her history or her family, no relation being named in it. He left
no legitimate issue.

executors. She directed to be buried in the Cloisters, near her late sou-in-law Mr. John Borrett
(see his burial 1 Sep. 1802). She bequeathed to her sister Jane Bowser £100, and the residue of
her estate to her executors in trust for her dau. Mary (apparently her only child), late wife of
said John Borrett, but then wife of James Robertson, of Abingdon Street, Westminster, Esq.

thereto), to whom married, at St. Margaret's, Westminster, 21 Aug. 1798, as Mary Grant, spinster,
the witnesses being Richard Grant, A.M., Plaxton Dickinson, A.M., and Richard Grant. The
first and last were, perhaps, her father and brother. She appears to have left no issue.
5 The Funeral Book says: "Removed, September 26th, 1807, to Henry the 7th's Chapel,
where the Duchess of Buckingham and her son stand in wax-work." He was the second son of
the celebrated Louis-Philippe-Joseph, fifth Duke of Orleans (called Philippe Egalité), and was
born 3 July 1775. He died during his exile in England. His monument, by Westmacott, was
erected by his elder brother, Louis-Philippe, afterwards King of France.
• Dau. of Thomas Gayfere, Abbey mason (see his burial 10 Apl. 1812), by Frances his wife
(sce her burial 22 Mch. 1770). She was born 23 Apl., and baptized at St. John the Evangelist,
Westminster, 8 May 1753. She died unmarried, and her brother Thomas Gayfere administered
to her estate, 4 Dec. 1807, her father renouncing.
7 James Marquet is mentioned in the Chapter Book, in 1817, as one of the Abbey choir, and
baptisms of his children occur in the registers of St. Margaret, Westminster, from 1816 onwards.
This was perhaps his sister, or possibly his first wife.
The place of burial sufficiently indicates her humble position,

2 The Funeral Book says that he died 19 Sep. The place of burial sufficiently indicates his

3 The journals of the day describe him as chief clerk of the Admiralty, and a servant of the
public upwards of fifty years, and say that he died at Brompton, whither he went for the
recovery of his health. His will, as of Abingdon Street, Westminster, dated 10 June 1801. with
a codicil 10 Sep. 1802, was proved 16 Oct. 1807, by his sons John and Henry. To his wife Mary
he bequeathed £10,000 three per cent. consols for life, and all his plate. furniture, etc., absolutely;
to his niece Barbara Reed £300; and to his said two sons equally twenty shares in the Lancaster
Navigable Canal. The residue of his estate he gave equally to his wife and sons. By the
codicil he bequeathed to his wife all his stocks in the public funds, instead of the specific sum
named.
+ Relict of Charles-Reimerd Watkins, Esq. (see his burial 30 July 1770). Her will, as late
of Ware, co. Herts, but then of Cold Bath Square, St. James, Clerkenwell, widow, dated 2 Mch.
1803, was proved 17 Oct. 1807. She directed to be buried in the Cloisters with her said husband.
Her principal legatecs were her two nicces, Jane, wife of Daniel Carter, of Cold Bath Square,
tailor, formerly Jane Robinson, spinster, and Mary, wife of Robert Creighton, late of Fore Street,
baker, formerly Mary Robinson, spinster, and their children. Her only other relation named
was Thomas Bee, son of her late sister-in-law Anne Bee, deceased. to whom she gave £100. Her
maiden name appears to have been Bach. Her husband, in his will, bequeathed £50 each to his
wife's brother Mr. Herbet Bach, and her sister Mrs. Mary Robinson, evidently the mother of
the two nieces above mentioned.
5 Eldest son of Major William Markham (see his burial 1 June 1771), by Elizabeth his wife,
and brother of Enoch and George Markham, Esquires (see their burials 2 Jan. and 6 Feb. 1801).
He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church (elected from St. Peter's College. Westminster),
6 June 1738, as son of William Markham. Gent., of Kingsale, Ireland (where he is said to have
been born), and was B.A. 13 May 1742, M.A. 28 Mch. 1745, B.C.L. 20 Nov. 1752, and D.C.L.
24 Nov. 1752. He was Head-Master of Westminster School from 1753 until 1765, was installed
Prebendary of Durham 22 June 1759, became Dean of Rochester 20 Feb. 1765, was installed
Dean of Christ Church 23 Oct. 1767, consecrated Bishop of Chester 17 Feb. 1771, and was elected
Archbishop of York 8 Jan. 1777. Sec the baptisms of his children 3 May 1760 and 23 Sep.

of his daughters-in-law 29 Dec. 1810 and 3 Meh. 1814.
6 His will, as of Millbank Street, St. John's, Westminster, Esq., dated 18 July 1802, with
codicils 7 and 9 Nov. 1804, was proved 23 Nov. 1807, by his brother John Hare, of Eastgate, in
the town of Lincoln, Esq., to whom he left all his estate, except liberal legacies to two servants.
In an affidavit to his handwriting he was described as a captain of dragoons on half-pay. See his
wife's burial 16 Mch. 1797, and note thereto. He evidently left no issue.

3 According to the Chapter Book, he was appointed Clerk of the Works to the Abbey 23 July
1803, for a year, and the appointment was renewed 12 Mch. 1804. His will, as of Delahay
Strect, St. Margaret's, Westminster, Esq., dated 31 Jan. 1808, was proved 18 Mch. following. He
bequeathed considerable legacies to his wife Margaret, his minor children Thomas-William and
Emily, his mother-in-law Mrs. Bertie, his sister Miss Glanvill, his sister Elizabeth, wife of
Mr. Simon Stephenson, and their son William Stephenson, his godson. He also mentioned that
he was engaged in trade with Mr. Jeremiah Glanvill, which was to be continued for the benefit
of his said son.
4 Probably wife of James Newbegin, who, according to the Chapter Book, was appointed
College butler, 17 Apl. 1795.
5 Son of John Rice, porter to the Abbey (see his burial 5 Feb. 1768). The journals of the
day say that he was born in Westminster, received a musical education, went to America, and
settled in New York as an organist, where he acquired a considerable sum, and that, returning to
England, he became a thorough miser, living and dying in a miserable condition, but leaving
about £40,000, of which he gave £10,000 to the Bishop of New York. As is usually the case, his
will contradicts this newspaper gossip in its general tone, and represents him in a much more
agreeable light. He may have been saving, and even penurious, during his life, but his will
affords ample evidence of his generous nature and grateful heart. It was dated 24 Feb. 1808,
only three weeks before his death, and states that he was then residing at No. 10 Little Peter
Street, Westminster, but was formerly of New York, and organist of Trinity Church in that
city. His first bequest was one of £7000 to William Boyce, of Hammersmith, Midx., Gent.,
which he made, he said, out of respect and gratitude to his father, the late Dr. William Boyce,
Master of H.M.'s Band of Musicians, from whom in early life he had received many favours, and
to whom he was under many obligations, as well as in consideration of his own kindness to him.
To his cousin Mrs. Mary Powell, of St. Nicholas, near Cardiff, co. Glamorgan, he gave £200, and to
each of her children £50. This was the only relation he named. He gave to the corporations
of Gloucester and Cardiff each £100, the interest of which was to be expended in bread, to be
distributed to the poor annually on the 31st of July, his birth-day. To the Royal Society of
Musicians he gave £100. To several friends in New York, including the late Bishop, clergymen,
a clergyman's widow, and others, he left legacies varying from £40 to £300, and similar bequests
to several friends in England. He even bequeathed ten guineas to his landlord, and £50 to his
servant. The residue of his estate he gave equally to the Rev. Mr. Moorc, then Bishop of New
York, and the said William Boyce. An affidavit attached to the probate act states that he died
at the house of the latter, in Hammersmith. It is very evident from the tenor of the whole will
that, octogenarian as he was, he remembered gratefully the kindness of early friends, and of his
friends and patrons in New York, and, having no family of his own, divided his fortune among
them and their descendants.

2 Son of Samuel Smith, of Compton Street, St. Anne's, Westminster, merchant, by Christian
Painc his wife, said to be of a Huntingdonshire family of that name. He is supposed to have
been their only child, no other being named in his father's will. He was educated at West-
minster School, and elected to Cambridge in 1750, where A.B. 1754, A.M. 1757, and LL.D. 1764.
He became Head-Master of Westminster School in June 1764, and resigned in 1788. He was
installed Prebendary of Westminster 29 Mch. 1787, and collated Prebendary of Peterborough
28 Sep. following, and held both preferments until his death. See the burials, of his first wife
4 Dec. 1789, and of his second wife 29 Mch. 1792. He married, thirdly, 19 June 1794, Mrs. Ann
Pinckney, who survived him, and was living in 1824, by whom he had no issue. See the baptisms

Chapel Royal. and succeeded his old master as master of the children in 1780. He was also
vicar-choral of the Abbey and of St. Paul's. He was created a Doctor of Music, at Cambridge,
in 1781. He died at his son's house in James Street, Buckingham Gate. His will, dated 6 Oct.
1802, with a codicil 15 May 1808, was proved 15 June following. The only relation named,
besides his own children and their husbands, was his late brother-in-law Nicholas-Thomas Dall,
evidently the Danish landscape and scene painter, who died in 1777, and who must have married
his sister. He was the father of fourteen children, the baptisms of twelve of whom occur in the
parish registers of St. Margaret, Westminster. See the burials, of his wife 23 May 1800, of his
children, 19 Oct. 1772, 13 July 1776, 2 Jan. 1778, 29 Dec. 1779, and 20 Oct. 1780, and of his

who survived her, and died 26 Apl. 1811, being then a General in the army, and having assumed

as of New Peter Street, Westminster, dated 17 Apl. 1789, with codicils 21 June 1791 and 23 Aug.
1798, was proved 11 Feb. 1809, by his relict Mary (see her burial 15 Aug. 1821). He bequeathed
to his niece Martha Spice, formerly Martha Walldron, an annuity of £10 for life, in accordance
with his mother's will, and the rest of his estate to his wife Mary, his sons Edward, Samuel,
John, Charles, William, George, and Henry, and his daughters Mary, Harriet, and Charlotte, all

6 The Funeral Book says that she was "niece to Captain Richard Murray" (sec his burial

minster, widow," dated in December 1809 (at the utmost less than two months before her death),
was proved 23 Feb. 1810. She directed to be buried in the Cloisters, near her "much respected
uncle, Captain Richard Murray, of the Royal Navy." She bequeathed all her estate, real and
personal, and particularly her leasehold house, etc., No. 3 Union Place, Blackheath Road,
Greenwich, Kent, and £1080 stock in the Navy five per cent. annuities, to Gilbert Salton, of

1 One of the sacrists of the Abbey, having been appointed, according to the Chapter Book,

(see her burial 20 June 1804).
2 Third son of Henry Agar, of Gowran Castle, co. Kilkenny, Ireland, Esq., by Anne, only
dau. of the Right Rev. Welbore Ellis, Bishop of Meath, and sister of Welbore Ellis, first Baron
Mendip (see his burial 7 Feb. 1802). He was born 22 Dec. 1736, and educated at Westminster
School. He matriculated at Oxford, from Christ Church, 31 May 1755, and was B.A. 4 May
1759, M.A. 23 Mch. 1762, and D.C.L. 31 Dec. 1765. He became Chaplain to Hugh, afterwards
first Duke of Northumberland, who, while Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, presented him to the
Deanery of Kilmore, to which he was instituted 22 May 1765. He was consecrated Bishop of
Cloyne 20 Mch. 1768, enthroned Archbishop of Cashel 19 Aug. 1779, and translated to Dublin by
patent dated 7 Dec. 1801. He was created Baron Somerton, of Somerton, co. Kildare, 12 June
1795. Viscount Somerton 21 Dec. 1800, and Earl of Normanton, co. Kilkenny. 7 Feb. 1806. See
his wife's burial 1 Nov. 1826. It is to this prelate that the world is indebted for completing the
destruction, commenced by his predecessor, of the magnificent old Cathedral on the Rock of
Cashel, for there is no evidence to sustain the assertion of his friends that he made a vain
attempt to restore it, and felt compelled to supplant it by the erection of the new cathedral.
The devotion to this purpose of a comparatively small portion of the immense fortune which he
acquired in a most extraordinary manner, the loss of which he could scarcely have felt, would
have sufficed to preserve for future ages one of the grandest mediæval relics of the three
kingdoms.
3 Dau. of Jonathan Farr, of Moorfields, citizen and draper of London, by Mary his wife.
She married, first, about 22 Mch. 1755 (Mar. Lic. Bp. Lond.), Rev. John Abbot, D.D., Rector of
All Saints, Colchester, Essex, who died 29 Apl. 1760, by whom she had two sons, viz., John-Farr
Abbot (see his wife's burial 28 Mch. 1794). and Charles Abbot, created Baron Colchester (see his
burial 14 May 1829). She married, secondly, at St. Margaret's. Westminster, 14 Oct. 1766,
Jeremiah Bentham, of Westminster, Esq. (father, by his first wife, of the celebrated Jeremy
Bentham), who died in 1792, and was buried in the Abbey Church at Bath, by whom she appears
to have had no issue. In his will he declared that they had lived together with as much con-
jugal felicity as he could conceive it possible for any one to be blessed with. Her will, dated
11 Nov. 1803, was proved 9 Oct. 1809, by her said son Charles, to whom she bequeathed all her
estate.
* Dau. and evidently the only child of Richard Gaven (sce his burial 15 May 1771), by Jane
his wife (see her burial 21 Nov. 1775). Her will, as of Great Smith Street, Westminster, spinster,

Street, Gent., to whom and to their children she bequeathed all her estate, but without men-
tioning any relationship.
5 His will, dated 28 June 1810, was proved 16 Apl. following, by James Hague, of Limehouse,

niece, Miss Henrietta Wrixon, 2 June 1800.
6 Consort of Louis XVIII., of France, who survived her until 16 Sep. 1824. The Funeral
Book, quoting her coffin-plate, gives her age as fifty-seven years, two months, and eleven days.
The interment was intended to be only temporary, and, according to the Funeral Book, her
remains were taken up, 5 Mch. 1811, and delivered to Mr. Martin, undertaker, for the purpose of
being removed to Sardinia.
7 Third and youngest dau. of James Joyc, Esq., by Mary his wife. See the note to the
burial of her sister 15 Apl. 1790. She was baptized at Acton, Midx., 10 Sep. 1727. Her monu-
ment says that she died in her cighty-fourth year, which is correct. She died at Richmond,
co. Surrey, unmarried, and "immensely rich," according to the journals of the day, having
become sole heiress to her own family and that of her mother. Her will, as of Hanover Square,
spinster, dated 6 Oct. 1807, with several codicils, was proved 8 Jan. 1811. It contains large
legacies to numerous persons with whom no relationship is alleged, but the principal legatees
were her nephew Keane Fitzgerald, of the Inner Temple, Esq., his sister Mary, wife of John
Fitzgerald, Esq., and her daughter Frances, wife of John Purcell, of Gower Street, Midx., Esq.

His will, as "Andrew, otherwise Andries Van-Yzendoorn," of Mount Row, St. Mary's,
Lambeth, Surrey, Gent., dated 6 Sep. 1810, was proved 5 Mch. 1811, by his relict Margaret, and
his daughter Sarah-Mary Van-Yzendoorn, spinster. to whom he left all his estate in England,
with remainder to his brother Peter Van-Yzendoorn. To his nephew and godson, Herman-
Andreas Van-Yzendoorn, he bequeathed his share in the brewery called the " Two Lyons,” in the
city of Rotterdam. See his son's burial 7 Apl. 1807.
5 The Funeral Book gives nearly two pages of his Spanish titles, and has this foot-note:
"Taken up and delivered to Demay, undertaker." He was the Spanish Ambassador to this
Court, and died in Portman Place, Edgeware Road. The interment was intended to be only
temporary. An account of him will be found in the Gentleman's Magazine, 1811, p. 197, and a
copy of the inscription on his coffin-plate, p. 290.
6 His will, as of Parliament Street, Westminster, late of H.M.'s Victualling Office, dated
6 June 1809, with codicils 16 Nov. 1809 and 7 Feb. 1811, was proved 13 May 1811, by his relict

Stafford, to his brother John Sayer and his heirs, subject to an annuity of £10 for life to Mary,
widow of his late brother Thomas Sayer, and one of £25 to his nephew Nathaniel Sayer, organist
of Ingestre, in that county, who was blind. To his sister Mary Price, widow, he gave £200, to
her dau. Sarah Price £100, and to her sons Thomas, James, William, Nathaniel, and John Price,
each £10; but, their mother having died before the date of the first codicil, he increased the
legacies of said sons to £100 cach. He gave smaller bequests to his nieces, Mary Brown, widow,
and Alice Robinson, and their children, and the children of his late niece Watson, his nephew
Thomas Sayer, carpenter, and his "relations" Mr. Lawrence Fell and Mr. Edward Fell. To his

house, while Master of Trinity College, Cambridge, he was born, 19 Feb. 1731-2. He was to
some extent in public life, and on one occasion ambassador to Spain, but will be chiefly remem-
bered for his dramatic productions. He married, 19 Feb. 1759, Elizabeth, only dau. of George

1 The Funeral Book says that he was a son of the Hon. George Herbert. Perhaps eldest son
of the Hon. and Rev. George Herbert, Vicar of Tibenham, co. Norfolk (fourth son of Henry, first
Earl of Carnarvon), by Frances, dau. of Francis Head, Esq. In the accounts of the family there
are no births of their children given between that of a daughter, 15 Sep. 1809, and that of a son
George, 2 July 1812, and this child was born at a reasonable date between the two.

3 Lady Mary Campbell, fifth and youngest dau. of John, second Duke of Argyll (see his
burial 15 Oct. 1743), by Jane his second wife (see her burial 23 Apl. 1767), and born, according
to her coffin-plate, 6 Feb. 1726. She married, 1 Apl. 1747, Edward Coke, commonly called
Viscount Coke, only son of Thomas, Earl of Leicester, who died in 1753, in his father's lifetime,
leaving no issue. See the burial of her sister, Caroline, Dowager Countess of Dalkeith, 25 Jan.
1794.
4 Son of William Stewart, of Castle Stewart, Wigtonshire, Esq., by Euphemia Mackenzie,
sixth daughter of Kenneth, Lord Fortrose (see his burial 22 Oct. 1781). According to the
journals of the day, he had been in active service from his boyhood, and had distinguished
himself greatly while in command of the "Sca-Horse" frigate. He was also said to have sailed
round the world with Capt. Vancouver. He died unmarried, still in command of the "Sea-
Horse," and his sister Mary Stewart, spinster, administered to his estate 25 Nov. 1811, his said
mother renouncing.
5 His will, as of Abingdon Street, Westminster, dated 1 Dec. 1809, with a codicil 10 Jan.
1810, was proved 17 Jan. 1812, by his eldest son Capt. James-Thomas Robertson (and two others),
to whom he left his freehold house in Abingdon Street and its contents, after the death of his
present wife Mary (see her burial 7 Jan. 1836). To his second son, Robert Robertson, then a
lieutenant in the H. E. I. Co.'s service, he gave £600, besides the property in Perth that belonged
to his late mother and was already settled upon him. To his youngest son, William-Daniel
Robertson, he gave £1500, etc. To his daughter Maria, wife of John Elphinstone, Esq., he gave
£1000, and £500 to his grand-daughter Charlotte Hunter, daughter of Dr. William Hunter, by
his wife Charlotte Robertson, who appears to have been, although he did not distinctly say so,
another of his daughters, and then dead. Both of his said sons-in-law were living at the date
of the codicil. He directed to be buried in the same grave with his late wife and child, in
St. Dunstan's churchyard, Fleet Street, which explains an entry in the Funeral Book, viz., that
the remains of Mrs. Charlotte Robertson (doubtless his wife), who died 2 Mch. 1802, aged forty-
eight, were buried in the grave prepared for him, 7 Jan. 1812, the day before his own burial.
6 The Funeral Book says that she was the wife of John Willes, Esq., and was buried in the
family vault of Bishop Wilcocks (see his burial 9 Mch. 1756). The journals of the day say that
she was a niece of that prelate, and the last survivor of his family, and that the estates of his
son, Joseph Wilcocks, Esq. (see his burial 31 Dec. 1791), went to her son as next heir. She was
a considerable legatee under the will of said Joseph Wilcocks, who called her his cousin, and
her husband was one of his executors. She died at Dulwich, co. Surrey, and her husband
remarried Ann, daughter and sole heir of Thomas Wright, Esq., alderman of London.

According to the journals of the day. he became a clerk in the War Office, and, after many
years' service, retired on a pension of £1000 per annum. His sister and only next of kin, Mary,
wife of Amos Vialls, Esq., administered to his estate 17 Mch. 1812. when he was described as of

4 He appears to have been the eldest son of Thomas Gayfere, of Wapping, Midx., mason,
by Mary Townsend, of Burford, co. Oxford, spinster, who had a license from the Bishop of
Oxford, 14 Jan. 1717-18, to marry at Shipton-under-Wychwood, in the latter county. He is
mentioned in the Chapter Book as mason to the College as early as 26 Oct. 1762, and a joint
patent was renewed to him and his son 7 Dec. 1802. His son and only surviving child, Thomas
Gayfere, administered to his estate 13 May 1812, when he was described as of Abingdon Street,
Westminster, Esq., widower, and his personalty was sworn under £10.000. See the burials, of
his wife 22 Mch. 1770, and of his daughter 30 June 1807. Another son, William, was baptized
at St. John the Evangelist, Westminster. 29 July 1757, and another daughter, Mary-Ann, 3 Dec.
1761, both of whom evidently died young. The son Thomas, who was baptized at St. John the
Evangelist 23 Jan. 1755, died 20 Oct. 1827, and was buried at Newton-Solney, co. Derby.

who died 16 Feb. 1861. According to her monument, erected by her mother, she was born.
28 Oct. 1806.
6 The journals of the day say that he died suddenly, in a fit of apoplexy, at his apartments
in Oxford Street. The original Faculty for the removal of his remains says that it was granted
at the request of his sister, Sarah Roberts, spinster. His will is in the following words: "Most
humbly I urge the assistance of any person whose hands this may fall into after my death to
remit all my property, consisting of money and plate, to Messrs. Hammersley and Co.. Bankers,
Pall Mall, for my sister, living with Mrs. Harrington, Park Street, Windsor, Berks; and I further

Rector of Fulmer, co. Bucks. at which latter place he died 21 Dec. 1841, aged sixty-eight. Her
monumental inscription is on the same stone with that of Jane Joye (see her burial 10 Dec.
1810), who described her in her will as one of the daughters of John Macnamara, of Baker
Street, Midx., and Mary his wife, and bequeathed to her £3000, and to her said mother and her

Gibbes, spinster, and Ann, wife of Thomas Poole, Esq. She directed to be buried under the same
stone with her brother Thomas Jennings (see his burial 20 Oct. 1787). Her bequests were to
her brother Robert Jennings, her sisters Ann Gibbes and Grace Vernon, and their children.
In the Funeral Book and on his monument he is called "M.P. for Heydon," and the
journals of the day say that he died suddenly, in a fit of apoplexy. His will, as George
Johnstone" (and so signed, although in the margin he is described as George Johnstone alias
George-Lindsay Johnstone "), of Hanover Square, Midx., Esq., dated 13 June 1812, with codicils
23 July 1812 and 8 July 1813, was proved 1 Feb. 1814, by his sister Sophia Johnstone, spinster
(see the burial of her son 24 May 1817). He bequeathed to his "mother, Martha Ford," then
residing in Oxford Street, London, £1500 per annum for life, free from all taxes, legacy duties,
etc., and to his natural daughters, Sophia Johnstone, then at school at Hammersmith, Midx.,
and Ann Hurst, then at school at Miss Jacques's, in Sloane Street, each £200 per annum for life,
free from all taxes, etc. To Mrs. Elizabeth Mills, otherwise Wyld, he gave £200 per annum for
life, in addition to the annuity he had already secured to her by his bond to John Rankin, Esq.
The residue of his estate he left to his said sister Sophia, with remainder to his nephew George-
Buller Johnstone, son of his late brother Alexander-Patrick Johnstone, who, if he succeeded
to the estate, was to pay to his sisters Sophia and Emily Johnstone £25,000 each.
2 Eldest dau. of Hon. George Clinton (second son of Francis-Fiennes, sixth Earl of Lincoln),
by Anne, dau. and heir of General Peter Carle, and wife of Sir Francis Willes, of Hampstead,
Midx., Kt., sometime an under-sccretary of state (see his burial 10 Nov. 1827), to whom married
about 22 July 1788 (Mar. Lic. Fac.). She left no issue. She was a sister of Sir Henry Clinton,
the celebrated commander-in-chief of the British forces in America during the war of the
Revolution.
3 According to her monument, she was the relict of John Mac Gougan, of Westminster, who
died near Hastings, co. Sussex, 29 Dec. 1807, aged forty-six. The Funeral Book describes her as
of No. 2 Smith Square. See the burials, of her husband's brother 2 Feb. 1814, and of her own
daughter 6 Dec. 1816, and the notes thereto.
Her will, as widow of the late William Barrett, Esq., dated 30 June 1812, with a codicil
4 Mch. 1813, was proved 19 Mch. 1814, by Alexander-Francis Hasclar and Charles-Churchill
Haselar, to whom and to their sister, Mrs. Sarah-Ann Roberts, widow, she bequeathed con-
siderable sums, besides plate, jewels, etc. She was evidently connected in some way with the
Tufnell family so often mentioned in the Abbey Registers, but the only relations she named
were her daughter-in-law, wife of William-Henry White, Esq. (see her burial 30 Apl. 1832), and
her cousins, Mrs. Edmonds and Mrs. Groves, of Stafford Row, Pimlico. She appears to have
been the daughter of Robert Churchill, by Dorothy, dau. of William Tufnell (see his burial
24 Dec. 1733), who were married, at St. Bartholomew-by-the-Exchange, London, 31 Oct. 1734.
In 1739-40 she had remarried Thomas Clapham, and was then living, with a daughter Elizabeth
Churchill, whose age would accord with that of the person named in the text, and the Haselars
would have been distantly related to her. She was the second wife of Mr. Barrett.

husband of Mary MacGougan (see her burial 5 Jan. 1814). His will, as of No. 2 Smith Square,

burial 2 Jan. 1736-7). Her will, as a widow, dated 13 Oct. 1813, was proved 12 July 1814. She
directed to be buried in the Cloister, near her late cousin Edward Willis (sec his burial 14 July

B.C.L., as of All Souls' College, 24 Oct. 1766, and D.C.L. 26 June 1771. He was a Fellow of
All Souls, and died unmarried. His monument, which describes him as Rector and patron of
St. Erme, co. Cornwall, was erected by his cousin and heir, Edward-William-Wynne Pendarves,
of Pendarves, in that county, Esq.
6 The Funcral Book says that she died at the Rev. Dr. Carey's house. Her will, as Alice
Gibbons, at Dr. Carey's, at Westminster, dated 8 Mch. 1810, was proved 11 Jan. 1815, by John-
Pattison Panton, of Old Burlington Street, Westminster, Gent., and Thomas Douglas, of Gun

1 Fifth and youngest dau. of Samuel Tufnell, eldest son of Edward Tufnell, Abbey mason
(see his burial 11 Sep. 1719), by Anne Mytton his wife. She was born the 12th, and baptized at
St. Margaret's, Westminster, 30 Mch. 1733, and her age was therefore not quite eighty-two. Her
will, as of Dartmouth Street, Westminster, spinster, dated 27 July 1813, was proved 6 Feb. 1815,
by William-Henry White, of Parliament Place, Westminster, Esq. (sce his wife's burial 30 Apl.
1832, and note thereto). She bequeathed all her estate to her "beloved friend" Maria Tufnell,
spinster, then residing with the Bishop of Salisbury, in Upper Seymour Street, Portman
Square.
2 He appears to have been in the legal profession, and was a son of Richard Bligh, of
Bodmin, co. Cornwall, tallow-chandler, by Mary his wife. His monument describes him as
“Cornubiensis ortus antiquo genere sed obscuræ sorti natus,” etc. He was baptized at Bodmin
25 Apl. 1750. His will, as of Abingdon Street, Westminster, dated 4 Oct. 1806, with a codicil
15 May 1807, was proved 15 Feb. 1815. To his wife Mary he bequeathed all his plate, furniture,
etc., the money due to him from the estate of the late Sir James Laroche. Bart., and a part of
his estate in Cornwall, called Redvile in the parish of St. Tudy, held under the Prince of Wales,
although he believed that would naturally belong to her. and he recommended that his brothers
Reginald and Richard should relinquish their right thereto. His two shares in the Lambeth
Water Works he directed to be applied to the payment of his own debts, and of any balance
due to the Chelsea Water Works from his son John Bligh as collector of water rents. To his
dear little son Timothy he gave his watch, stating in the codicil that he was then only eleven
years old, and would be entitled on his mother's death to £1695 6s. 8d., as settled on her and
their children previous to their marriage. The residue of his estate he gave equally to his three
children, Lucy Stanley, John Bligh, and Richard Bligh. He named William Gatty, of the
King's Remembrancer's Office, and Robert Gatty, of Angel Court, Throgmorton Street, London,
as exccutors with his son Richard, but the latter alone proved the will, as Richard Bligh, Esq.
3 The place of burial sufficiently indicates her humble position.
4 Second wife of Samuel Strutt, Esq. (see his burial 31 Jan. 1785), to whom married, 10 Sep.
1771, as Charlotte Locke, of Clerkenwell. Midx., spinster. See the burial of their daughter
30 Apl. 1808. She married, secondly, 15 May 1786, at his house in Dean Street, St. Anne's,
Westminster, by special license, Ralph Willett, Esq., of Merley, co. Dorset, to whom she was
second wife, and whom she also survived. (The sale of his rare collection of early printed works
and botanical drawings, by Leigh and Sotheby, in December 1813, occupied no less than seven-
teen days.) Her son and only surviving child, Rev. Samuel Strutt, administered to her estate
26 May 1815, when her personalty was sworn under £300.
• His monument describes him as third son of Christopher Milles, of Nackington, co. Kent,
Esq., and brother of Richard Milles, of the same place and of North Elmham, co. Norfolk, Esq.
His will, as of Park Street, Grosvenor Square, Esq., dated 3 May 1815, was proved 4 July
following, by his sister Mary Milles, of Green Street, Grosvenor Square, spinster, to whom he
gave only £10. He gave the same sum to his said brother Richard, and his silver inkstand to
his nephew Rev. Henry-Nicholas Astley, of East Basham, co. Norfolk. All his books, pictures,
plate, furniture, etc., and the entire residue of his personalty, he bequeathed absolutely to his
reputed daughter Mary-Ann Blackburn, to her sole use for ever.

at Langbourne Ward School, Lime Street, Fenchurch Street, city of London, wife of Robert
Byles, late of Aldermaston, co. Berks, surgeon, but from whom I live separate and apart," dated
23 Nov. 1809, was proved 31 Oct. 1815, by her sister Elizabeth Abbott and her husband Henry
Abbott, of Blackheath Hill, co. Kent, Gent., whom she made her residuary legatees. Her only
other legacies were £150 each to her cousins Mr. Thomas Belcher and Mr. William Belcher. She
appears to have cited her ante-nuptial settlement, dated 8 Sep. 1795, she being then a spinster,
and was evidently living with her husband at the date of her mother's will, 3 May 1799. She
had probably been passing by the name of Brown for the purpose of concealment, as she certainly
could have had no husband of that name.

Stageldoir, named Mrs. Gammell," £300 per annum for life, and to a daughter of his by that
lady, named Jessie, who had "disgraced herself by marrying a blackgard," only £100 per annum
for life. All the rest of his real, personal, or hereditary property was to be divided equally
between his seven following children by the aforesaid Mrs. Gammell," viz., Lieut. William
Gammell, Martha Gammell, Ensign James Gammell, Mary Gammell, Margaret Gammell, Andrew
Gammell, and Ernest Gammell.

4 The journals of the day describe him as " a very eminent performer on the violin." His
will, dated 30 Oct. 1815, was proved 8 Dec. following. He directed that his house, No. 70 New-
man Street, should go to the next of kin of his late uncle Herman Bowjedsen, viz., the three
brothers Munch, sons of Coopermaster Munch at Bonn on the Rhine, and the relict of Mr.
Geiger, formerly purveyor to the Elector of Cologne. He mentioned no other relations. Ile
gave £200 each to Mr. Ferdinand Ries, for the encouragement of his younger brother's musical
genius, and Mr. William Morris, of Great Marlborough Street, surgeon, and appointed them his
cxecutors, but the former only proved the will, the latter having already died. His other bequests
were to various musical and other friends, and among them was that of his Stradivarius violin,
formerly belonging to La Motte, which he gave to Sir Patrick Blake, of Bury St. Edmunds,
Bart.
Fifth son of Giles Vincent (fourth and youngest son of Rev. George Vincent, Rector of the

of Capt. John Shortland, of the royal navy, to whom married, at St. Mary's, Whitechapel, Midx.,
5 July 1764, and who died at Lille, in France, 30 Jan. 1803. She was a sister of John Rutherford,
Esq. (see his burial 11 Oct. 1782). The Funeral Book says that she died of apoplexy, and that
the fees for her monument were paid by Lady Eyre. Her will, as of St. John's, Westminster,
dated 15 Oct. 1815, was proved 5 Jan. 1816, by her son-in-law William Peace, Esq., husband of
her daughter Peggy, to whom, and to her son Capt. Thomas-George Shortland, R.N., she be-
queathed all her possessions. This son was afterwards Commissioner of the Navy at Port Royal,
Jamaica, where he died 23 Nov. 1827, in his fifty-seventh year. Her only other son, Capt. John
Shortland, R.N., died at Guadaloupe, early in 1810, from the effects of wounds received while
gallantly defending H.M.'s frigate Junon" against an attack by four French frigates. Her
only other daughter, Jane, married Mr. Williamson, chief commissariat officer in New South
Wales.

first, in 1773, Elizabeth-Anne, dau. of Thomas Linley, Esq., who died in 1792, and secondly, in

¹ He was of Magdalen College, Cambridge, A.B. 1753, A.M. 1756, and S.T.P., by royal com-
mand, 1767. He was installed Prebendary of Westminster 12 Oct. 1765. His will, dated 20 May
1815, was proved 3 Jan. 1817, by George Harrison, Esq., Assistant-Secretary to the Treasury,
and Sherrard-Beaumont Burnaby, of Doctors' Commons, Doctor of Law. The only relation
named was his“ only surviving sister" Mrs. Lucy Bell (see her burial 10 Jan. 1816, and probably
that of another sister 11 Apl. 1814), who was to inherit after his death what was due to him
under the will of his late brother John Bell, of Fludyer Street, Whitehall, Esq. His other
bequests, which were large and very numerous, were to friends, clergymen and their families,
and various charities.
2 According to her monument, she was a daughter of John MacGougan, by Mary his wife
(see her burial 5 Jan. 1814), and nicce of Archibald MacGougan (see his burial 2 Feb. 1814),
and died at the age of twenty. An inscription, contained in a letter from her brother John
MacGougan, dated 22 George Street, Adelphi, 25 June 1825, and still remaining in the Funcral
Book, gives her age as twenty-two. He stated that she was his only sister.
3 This child was the last of the Royal family buried in the Abbey, and, according to the
Funeral Book, her remains were removed, 7 July 1837, to St. George's Chapel, at Windsor. The
father succeeded as King of Hanover, 20 June 1837, and died 18 Nov. 1851. The mother died
21 June 1841.
4 * He was called "cousin" in the will of Daniel Gell, Chapter Clerk (scc his burial 18 June
1763). According to the Chapter Book, he was appointed Receiver-General 19 June 1787, jointly
with Mr. Thomas Prickard (sec bis burial 23 Sep. 1795), who resigned 1 Dec. following. He was
also appointed, 26 Apl. 1792, Coroner and Clerk of the Markets for Westminster, and, on 5 May
1801, a new patent as Receiver-General was issued to him, jointly with his son John-Henry Gell.

Volunteers, and says that he died at Hastings, and was buried from the head-quarters in Gray's

merchant in London, trading under the firm of Herries and Naylor, and that he was buried with
military honours, under a special order from the Commander-in-Chief. His will, as of Cadogan

5 The Register has no entry of the burial of Major André, but the Funeral Book contains the
following: "Major André's remains, brought from America, by order of His Royal Highness the
Duke of York, in a sarcophagus, were, this 28th day of Nov 1821, removed from Islip's Chapel,
and deposited nearly in front of his monument, and nine feet from the South side of the Church,
and [blank] feet from Iron gate, one foot under pavement, in the presence of the very Revd the
Dean and General Taylor." The unhappy history of this young officer has always excited great
interest throughout the British nation, and that interest seems almost as intense and earnest at
the present day as it was at first, nearly a century ago. This being the case, it seems remark-
able that no one has hitherto elicited the slightest information respecting his antecedents-not
even so little as his father's name. The Editor has, therefore, devoted considerable time and
labour to the subject, and with the following results. The carliest ancestor of Major André so
far ascertained was James André, of Nismes, in the South of France, living in the latter part of
the 17th century, and perhaps early in the 18th, who left two sons, David and John. The former
was a merchant at Genoa, where he died 8 Mch. 1737-8, and it is from his will, proved in London
30 Sep. 1738, that much of the information obtained has been derived. The other son, John
André, appears to have remained at Nismes, and married Louise Vazcille, by whom he had seven
children. Their third son, William André, appears to have removed to Geneva, where he died
about 1747. He married Mary Privat, who survived him, and also died at Geneva in 1767.
They were the parents of ten children, of whom three sons, Anthony, David, and John-Lewis,
came to England, the two former being naturalized, by Act of Parliament, in 1748. The two
latter became merchants in London, married, and had families, and their descendants are doubt-
less still living in England. The eldest son, Anthony André, also became a merchant in London,

residing, during the latter part of his life, at Clapton, in Hackney, where he died 14 Apl. 1769,
aged fifty-two. He was buried in the family vault in St. Augustine's churchyard. He married
Marie-Louise, daughter of Paul Girardot, of Paris. She survived her husband nearly forty-four
years, and died at Bath 22 Feb. 1813, aged, as was said, ninety-one. They were the parents of
two sons, John and William-Lewis, and of three daughters, Mary-Hannah, Ann-Marguerite,
and Louisa-Catherine. The youngest son, William-Lewis, was baptized at St. Martin Outwich,
London, 25 Nov. 1760, and was created a Baronet 24 Mch. 1781, shortly after his elder brother's
death. He died, unmarried, in 1802, and the title became extinct. The three sisters continued
to reside at Bath, at No. 23 Circus, and all died there, unmarried. Ann-Marguerite, Miss
Seward's "tuneful Anna," died in 1830. Louisa-Catherine died 25 Dec. 1835, aged eighty-one,
and Mary-Hannah, the eldest, outliving all her family, died 3 Mch. 1845, aged ninety-three. The
eldest son was Major John André, who appears to have been born in 1751, but the precise time
and place of his birth or baptism have not been ascertained. It is very probable that he was
born at Paris, where his mother's father lived and died. Of his early life nothing is absolutely
known, but he purchased a second lieutenant's commission in the army when he must have still
been a minor, being gazetted 2 Apl. 1771. He subsequently became a Captain in the 26th
regiment of foot, and Adjutant-general, with the rank of Major. The rest of his history is too
well known to require recapitulation. He was executed at Tappan, in the State of New York, 2
Oct. 1780, probably before he had entered his thirtieth year, and his remains were subsequently
disinterred and removed to this country, in order that they might have honourable interment
in the Abbey.

married, at a chapel in St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., and afterwards in the chapel of the
Portuguese Embassy, 22 June 1749, as Eva-Maria Violette, of St. James, Westminster. The
Funeral Book says that she died in her ninety-ninth year. Nothing appears to be absolutely
known concerning her origin, but she is said to have stated that she was born at Vienna, 29
Feb. 1724, and that she was of noble blood. Her reputed father was John Veigel, of that city,
certainly not a nobleman. She had been a popular danseuse, but had been withdrawn from the
stage previous to her marriage, and was then living under the protection of the Earl and Countess
of Burlington. She appears to have lived thirty years a faithful wife, and forty-three years a
faithful widow. She left no issue. Her will, dated 28 Jan. 1819, with codicils 28 Nov. 1821 and
15 Aug. 1822, was proved 30 Oct. 1822. The only relations of her own whom she named were
her niece Elizabeth, wife of Mr. Peter de Saar, of Vienna, and her god-daughter Eva-Maria de
Saar, daughter of her late nephew Louis de Saar, of Oldenburgh, in Hungary.

Ireland, wife of the Very Rev. John Ireland, then Dean of Westminster (see his burial 8 Sep.

brother succeeded to his titles.
* The Funeral Book says that she was the only child of John-Henry Gell, Esq. (see his
burial 16 Oct. 1856), by Charlotte his wife, and wife of George Hawkins, Esq. (see his burial 31
Aug. 1846), and that she died in her twenty-first year.
The Funeral Book says: "Senior Almsman of the Collegiate Church of St. Peter, West-
minster." See the burials, of his father 12 Sep. 1775, of his mother 16 July 1771, of his sister 25
June 1764, and of his brother 4 June 1838.
5 The Funeral Book says: "Late wife of Sir Robert-Thomas Wilson, Kt., M.P." (see his
burial 15 May 1849). In his will he cited her ante-nuptial settlement, dated 5 July 1797, and
stated that subsequently, after the deaths of her father William Belford and her uncle Gustavus
Belford, she became entitled, under the will of her grandfather William Belford, to certain estates,
among which was the "China farm" in Harbledown, co. Kent. Her father is said to have been
a colonel in the army.

2 The celebrated author of the Madras system of Education. According to his monument,
he was born at St. Andrew's, in Scotland, 27 Mch. 1753. He was educated at the University in
that city, and spent some years as a chaplain at Fort St. George and Madras, in the service of
the East India Company. After returning to England he became Rector of Swanage, co.
Dorset, and Master of Sherborne Hospital, and was installed Prebendary of Westminster 24 Apl.
1819. The Funeral Book describes him as "D.D., LL.D., F.A.S.. F.R.S., etc., and says that he
died at Cheltenham, and was buried from No. 18 Berkeley Square, Midx. His will, as D.D.
and LL.D., of Egmore, in the parish of Crossmichael and stewartry of Kirkcudbright, Prebendary
of Westminster, dated 13 Aug. 1831, with a codicil 10 Jan. 1832, was proved 19 May 1832. He
left legacies to numerous assistants, pupils, servants, etc., but the most of his estate to trustees
for the purpose of furthering the introduction of his system of education, and for various
charities. The sum so bequeathed, according to the journals of the day, amounted to £120.000.
The only relation he named was a sister, who, he said, was amply provided for. To Robert
Southey, LL.D., of Keswick, he bequeathed £1000, and a similar sum to William Wordsworth,
of Rydal Mount, Esq., but revoked the latter bequest in the codicil, and gave his wife Dorothy
and daughter Dorothy each £100, and the same sum to his god-daughter, the daughter of said
Robert Southey.
3 The Funeral Book says that he died at Evesham, aged eighty years, one month, and
fifteen days, and was buried from No. 26 Newman Street, Oxford Street. He was an eminent
musical composer, and is said to have been born at Rome, and to have been brought from Italy
to England, at an early age, by the celebrated Peter Beckford, Esq. He was at least twice
married, as he had a license from the Faculty Office, 3 July 1811, being then a widower, to
marry Emma Gisborne, of St. Giles in the Fields, Midx., spinster. His will, as late of Lincroft
House, near Lichfield, co. Stafford, but then of Evesham, co. Worcester, Esq., dated 2 Jan. 1832,
was proved 24 Apl. following. He bequeathed £400 among the children of his late brother
Gaetano and of his sister Regina Clementi Maltesi, and the residue of his estate, as well as £1000
for immediate use, to his wife Emma.

dinning, near Westerkirk, in Eskdale, co. Dumfries, Scotland, by Janet Jackson his wife, and

self cut upon his father's gravestone the descriptive words "an unblameable shepherd "), he
eventually advanced himself to the very front rank in his profession, and acquired the universal
respect of the nation. His latest biographer appropriately describes him as "the good, great
cngineer." He died unmarried, and apparently without relations, as none are named in his will.

time of his deccase on the 22nd of October 1446, aged between 70 and 80 years, disinterred on
the 16th of January 1852, in a roughly formed cavity cut from the inside into the foundation

minster Abbey, under a black marble ledger, close to the North wall, 16 feet from the bottom
step of the east entrance door to the centre of the coffin, on Saturday morning, the 6th of March
1852." It has been thought best to preserve in this place the foregoing (at least) semi-official
account of the final disposition of the remains of Bishop Lyndwood (or Linwood), Further

Saturday, March 26th, 1859, was re-interred on Monday afternoon, on the North aisle, South side

spite of its grammatical construction, as being the only official record of the final disposition of
the remains of this eminent man. He was buried at St. Martin in the Fields 22 Oct. 1793. He
was the youngest of ten children of John Hunter, of Long Calderwood, in the parish of Kilbride,
Lanarkshire, where he was born, according to the parish register, 13 Feb. 1728-9. He first came

general of hospitals, and surgeon-general to the army. He died suddenly, in the board-room of
St. George's Hospital. He married, in 1771, Ann, daughter of Robert Home, Esq., surgeon in

in the parish register of St. Margaret. He succeeded as third Viscount 17 Apl. 1802. He died
at Brockett Hall, Herts, 18 Oct., and was buried in the North Transept of the Abbey. Dying

(see his burial 27 Oct. 1865), by whom she had no issue. She died 11 Sept.
4 As the person named in the text was not really buried in the Abbey, nor intended to be,
his name somewhat improperly appears in the Register. His remains were merely deposited
there for a few days, until their removal to his native country, although with the performance of
the usual funeral ceremonies. He was the second son and third child of Thomas Peabody, by
Judith Dodge his wife, and was born at Danvers, in the State of Massachusetts, U.S.A., 18 Feb.

effort to evangelise the native races, to explore the undiscovered secrets, and to abolish the
desolating slave trade of Central Africa, where, with his last words, he wrote, 'All I can add in
my solitude is, May Heaven's rich blessing come down on every one-American, English, or
Turk—who will help to heal this open sore of the world."" He was son of Neill Livingstone, a

THE ROYAL WARRANT FOR THE DISINTERMENT OF
CERTAIN COMMONWEALTH PERSONAGES.
[As the well-known royal warrant for the disinterment of the bodies of certain
persons who had been buried in the Abbey during the Commonwealth period
contains several names that do not appear in the existing Register, nor in the
preceding pages, and as the warrant itself is sufficient evidence that the persons
named were so buried, it is deemed proper to reproduce it here. The precise
place of re-interment has been identified as the green on the North side of the
Abbey, between the North transept and the West end. The warrant, which
has been re-transcribed from the original copy, reads as follows :—]
"It is his Maiesties express pleasure & cōmand that you cause the bodies of the
severall persons undernamed, wch have bin unwarrantably interred in Henry the 7th
and other Chappels and places wthin the Collegiate Church of Westminster since the
year 1641, to be forthwith taken up and buried in some place of the churchyard
adioining to ye said church, whereof you may not faile, and for so doing this shall
be yr warrant. Dated at ye Court at Whitehall, Sept. 9, 1661.

3 The mother of Oliver Cromwell. Daughter of William Steward, of the city of Ely, Esq.,
by his second wife, Catharine, daughter of Thomas Payne, of Castle-Acre, co. Norfolk, Esq. She
appears to have been a second child of this name, and baptized at Holy Trinity, Ely, 28 Oct.
1565. She married there, 10 Feb. 1588-9, William Lynne, Gent., who was buried there 26 July
following, and their only child, Catharine, was also buried there 17 Mch. 1589-90. She married,
secondly, about a year after her first husband's death, Robert Cromwell, of Huntingdon, Esq., by
whom she was mother of the Protector, and who was buried at All Saints, Huntingdon, 24 June
1617. If the above dates are correct, she had just entered her ninetieth year. She died 18 Nov.
1654, and was buried in great state, contrary to her express desire. Before the disinterment of
her remains, the body of her son Oliver (buried 26 Sep. 1658) had been exhumed, and hung at
Tyburn. It is unaccountable that, as the authorities entertained a special spite towards the
family of Cromwell, the name of the Protector's second and favourite daughter, Elizabeth
Claypole, was omitted from the list given in the warrant. She died at Hampton Court 6 Aug.
1658, in her twenty-eighth year, and was buried on the 10th of the same month in a little vault
in Henry VIIth's Chapel, which seems to have been expressly constructed with a view to isolation
and secrecy. At all events, her remains unquestionably escaped the sacrilegious hands that
carried away those of her grandmother, and as unquestionably continue where they were first
deposited to this day.

1 There can be scarcely a doubt that this was Jane Cromwell, sister of the Protector, and
first wife of John Disbrowe (or Desborough), Major-General in the Parliamentary army. She
was the fifth daughter of Robert and Elizabeth Cromwell, and was baptized 19 Jan. 1605-6, and
married 23 June 1636. She was dangerously ill in the early part of the year 1656, and probably
died about that time, as her husband re-married in April 1658.
? Probably a child of the parliamentary general, Charles Fleetwood, by Bridget, daughter of
Oliver Cromwell, and widow of Henry Ireton. It is certain, from Fleetwood's letters, that he
had issue by her, of whom no trace has been found, and in Rugge's MSS., in the British Museum,
where her burial is referred to, she is called "a child." The body of Ireton, who died 26 Nov.
1651, and was buried in the Abbey 6 Feb. following, was exhumed with that of Cromwell, and
subjected to the same indignity at Tyburn. Mrs. Fleetwood, this child's mother, was buried at
St. Anne's, Blackfriars, London, 1 July 1662 (not at Stoke Newington, Midx., 5 Sep. 1681, as is
commonly stated). Her father, General Fleetwood, who married a third wife, Mrs. Mary
Hartopp, 14 Jan. 1663-4, died 4 Oct. 1692, and was buried in Bunhill Fields.
3 See his burial 4 Aug. 1657, and note thereto.
✦ See his burial 18 Apl. 1644, and note thereto.
The celebrated republican statesman, sometime Clerk of the Exchequer, and many years
M.P. His name is usually written Pym. He matriculated at Oxford, from Broadgates Hall,
18 May 1599, aged fifteen, as the son of an Esquire, of co. Somerset, and then signed the
Subscription Book as John Pim." He died at Derby House, in Canon Row, Westminster,
8 Dec. 1643, and was buried in the Abbey on the 13th of the same month.
• William Strode, for many years M.P., and one of the five members demanded by King
Chas. I., on his memorable entry into the House of Commons with an armed force, in January
1641-2. He had acquired for himself the appellation of the "Parliament Driver." He was the
second son of Sir William Strode, of Newnham, co. Devon, Kt., by Mary, daughter of Thomas
Southcote, of Bovey-Tracey, in the same county, Esq. He matriculated at Oxford, from St. Mary
Hall, 5 May 1598, aged nineteen, as an Esquire's son, of co. Dorset. He died, of a pestilential
fever, 10 Sep. 1645, and was buried in the Abbey, by order of the Parliament, on the 22nd of the
same month. His will, dated 4 July 1644, was proved on the day of his death, by Sir Edward
Barkham, Kt. and Bart.

Esq. He was born 30 Aug., and baptized at Melcombe Regis 1 Sep. 1588. He was many years
M.P., one of the Council of State from 1648 to 1652, and was appointed Clerk of the Pells in the
Exchequer 20 Aug. 1654. He was named on the Commission for trying King Chas. I., but does
not appear to have taken any part in those proceedings. He died 30 Aug. 1658.
10 Probably Mary, wife of John Bradshaw, the president of the tribunal which condemned
King Chas. I. She was a daughter of Thomas Marbury, of Marbury, co. Chester, Esq., by
Eleanor, daughter of Peter Warburton, of Arley, Esq., and was baptized at Great Budworth,
co. Chester, 1 Dec. 1596. She was living 10 Sep. 1655, the date of a codicil to her husband's will,
but died before him. The body of her husband, who died 22 Nov. 1659, and was also buried in
the Abbey, was exhumed with those of Cromwell and Ireton, and hung at Tyburn.

tutor to Prince Charles, and subsequently followed him into exile, becoming his chaplain and
clerk of the closet. Immediately after the Restoration, he was made Dean of Westminster, and
installed 14 June 1660. He was consecrated Bishop of Worcester 30 Nov. 1662, and translated
to Salisbury Sep. 1663. He died at Oxford 17 Nov. 1665, and was buried on the 25th in Merton
College Chapel. His relict Bridget administered to his estate 18 Dec. 1665, under his nuncupa-

INDEX.
The names in the Text are in SMALL CAPITALS, those in the Notes in ordinary type, and the
italic letter n indicates that the following references are to the Notes.
In the cases of married ladies, they are indexed as far as possible under both their married
and maiden names, and hence one or the other surname does not always appear, but with this
hint there will be no difficulty in identifying the reference.
All children, whose Christian names only are mentioned in the text or notes, will appear in
the Index under their proper surnames.
The same name often occurs more than once on the same page, both in the text and the
notes, but in such cases will appear only once in the Index.
The names in the text are indexed as properly spelt, and where the orthography is manifestly
erroneous it does not appear in the Index: c.g., the name "Louder," on page 11, is indexed only
Lowther.
The Index is most elaborate, and it is hoped and believed that not a solitary name in the
text or notes will not be found in its appropriate place.
