Descendants of Osbert Trussell

 

Generation No. 1

1. Osbert1 Trussell was born Bef. 1120.

Notes for Osbert Trussell:

Lord of Billesley c 1165, held of the Earl of Warwick.

In 1086 William Peverel held 5 carucates in Bosworth under Gilbert de Gand. (fn. 73) In the early years of the 12th century Helgot gave tithes from his demesne here to Lenton Priory (Notts.). (fn. 74) Robert the son of Helgot forfeited his lands to Henry II who enfeoffed Peter de Goldington of Stoke Goldington (Bucks.). While the overlordship belonged to the honor of Peverel of Nottingham, the Goldington family remained nominally the mesne lords of this manor. (fn. 75)

By 1130 the demesne tenant was Osbert Trussell, (fn. 76) and this fee descended in his family, to his son William and his grandson Richard. (fn. 77) It was still called the TRUSSELL FEE in the late 18th century. (fn. 78) But by 1235–6 William de Medbourne was the demesne tenant, (fn. 79) and in 1279 Beatrice de Lokington held 5 carucates of William Trussell and he of Peter de Goldington. (fn. 80) During the 14th and 15th centuries tenants of this fee in Bosworth probably held of the manor of Marston Trussell (Northants.) which remained in the Trussell family until the 16th century. (fn. 81)

In the early 13th century William and Amice Trussell gave 1 virgate and ½ virgate respectively in Bosworth to Sulby Abbey (Northants.). (fn. 82) In 1202 the Abbot of Sulby was reported to be already the tenant of 3 virgates of this fee. (fn. 83)

Child of Osbert Trussell is:

+ 2 i. Fulk2 Trussell, born Bef. 1140.

 

Generation No. 2

2. Fulk2 Trussell (Osbert1) was born Bef. 1140.

Children of Fulk Trussell are:

+ 3 i. William3 Trussell, born Abt. 1160.

+ 4 ii. Maud Trussell, born Bef. 1178; died Bef. 1222.

 

Generation No. 3

3. William3 Trussell (Fulk2, Osbert1) was born Abt. 1160. He married Agnes de Loxley, daughter of Robert de Loxley.

Child of William Trussell and Agnes de Loxley is:

+ 5 i. Richard4 Trussell, born Bet. 1195 - 1197 in Marston, Northampton.

 

4. Maud3 Trussell (Fulk2, Osbert1) was born Bef. 1178, and died Bef. 1222. He married (1) Robert de Esseby. He married (2) Wigan de la Mare Bef. 1208. He died Aft. 1222.

Notes for Maud Trussell:

Outside the honor of Leicester the most important holding belonged to the Trussell family of the neighbouring parish of Marston Trussell (Northants.), who also acquired a fee in Hothorpe. During the 12th century their manor in Theddingworth formed part of the Sanderville fee, held in the honor of Skiptonin-Craven. (fn. 58) It was therefore almost certainly connected with the 5 carucates in Theddingworth held by Roger in 1086. During the reign of Henry II Fulk Trussell was the demesne tenant, and in 1199 his daughter Maud secured recognition of her right to the property from the overlord Robert de Sanderville. (fn. 59) Her right to a knight's fee in Theddingworth was again acknowledged in 1202, (fn. 60) but the extensive subinfeudation which apparently took place during the 13th century makes it difficult to trace the descent of this property. Some parts remained with Maud's direct descendants, the Esseby family of Ashby Legers (Northants.), but others by the early 14th century, either by enfeoffment or reversion, belonged to the male line of the Trussell family.

From: 'Theddingworth', A History of the County of Leicestershire: Volume 5: Gartree Hundred (1964), pp. 312-321. URL: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=22074. Date accessed: 11 August 2008.

Notes for Richard Trussell:

The two earlier generations shown include contradictory information. Fulk Trussell, father of Maud, is also shown in the histories of some manors as the ancestor of William and Richard. Osbert, likewise, has the same distinction in histories of other properties. Perhaps one was the uncle of the other, as a close family relationship is certain.

A Richard Trussell was lord of the manor in 1233. The Trussells of Marston died out in the fourteenth century.

12. William6 Trussell (William5, Richard4, William3, Fulk2, Osbert1) was born Abt. 1261, and died 1316 in Warmingham, Cheshire.

Notes for William Trussell:

By 1243 Bednall was held with Brocton by John de Acton as ¼ fee of the barony of Stafford. (fn. 58) In 1297 or 1298 it was held with land in Brocton by John Trussell as ¼ fee owing suit twice a year at the bishop's court of Haywood. (fn. 59) It has since descended with Acton Trussell (see above), the courts of the two manors being held jointly from at least 1557.

In 1206 John de Acton was defending his claim to 2/3 fee in Acton against Philip de Wastenys, (fn. 26) possibly the same John de Acton who held 2/3 fee in Acton in 1242 or 1243. (fn. 27) In 1342 John Trussell, described as of Acton, and Alice Trussell his wife settled the manor (with Bednall and Brocton) on themselves for life with remainder to William Trussell of Kibblestone in Stone (Pirehill hundred), (fn. 28) but Acton appears to have passed to another William, the son of John Trussell, (fn. 29) who in 1371 settled it on Margaret, daughter of Sir William Trussell of Kibblestone (d. 1363) (fn. 30) and her husband Fulke Pembrugge, (fn. 31) Margaret Pembrugge was dead before 17 February 1400 (fn. 32) leaving her husband with a life interest under the settlement of 1371 and also under a later one of 1383. (fn. 33) On his subsequent marriage Fulke appears to have secured another settlement (fn. 34) which, after providing for the joint life interests of himself and his wife Isabel, created a remainder in favour of William Trussell, son of a Lawrence Trussell and grandson of a Warin Trussell, who acquired Acton on the death of Isabel in 1446, he being then 60 years old. (fn. 35) Richard Vernon, a cousin on the Pembrugge side, successfully dispossessed him by an action of novel disseisin in 1448, but an appeal brought by William Trussell in 1450 (fn. 36) was apparently successful, for in 1464 on his death he held the manor. (fn. 37) It then passed to his son Thomas who had been succeeded, before 1480, by a William Trussell who died in that year. (fn. 38) Edward Trussell, his heir, died in 1499 being succeeded by his son John, (fn. 39) who died in infancy in 1500 and whose heir was his sister Elizabeth, (fn. 40) subsequently married to John de Vere, Earl of Oxford. (fn. 41) The manor descended with the Earldom of Oxford (fn. 42) until 1575 when Edward Earl of Oxford conveyed it to trustees, (fn. 43) probably for the purpose of sale. The manor was divided into three main estates at this date, all subsequently designated the manor of Acton Trussell and Bednall

From: 'Parishes: Acton Trussell and Bednall', A History of the County of Stafford: Volume 5: East Cuttlestone hundred (1959), pp. 11-17. URL: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=53394. Date accessed: 11 August 2008.

Child of William Trussell is:

+ 16 i. Sir William7 Trussell, born Abt. 1290 in of Marston Trussell, Northamptonshire; died Abt. 1345 in of Acton Trussell.

 

13. Edmund6 Trussell (William5, Richard4, William3, Fulk2, Osbert1) was born Aft. 1262, and died 1321 in Scotland. He married Margery de Doseville, daughter of Walter Doseville and Margaret Burnaby. She was born Aft. 1266.

Notes for Edmund Trussell:

Theddingworth: Edmund was succeeded by his grandson, Theobald Trussell

Outside the honor of Leicester the most important holding belonged to the Trussell family of the neighbouring parish of Marston Trussell (Northants.), who also acquired a fee in Hothorpe. During the 12th century their manor in Theddingworth formed part of the Sanderville fee, held in the honor of Skiptonin-Craven. (fn. 58) It was therefore almost certainly connected with the 5 carucates in Theddingworth held by Roger in 1086. During the reign of Henry II Fulk Trussell was the demesne tenant, and in 1199 his daughter Maud secured recognition of her right to the property from the overlord Robert de Sanderville. (fn. 59) Her right to a knight's fee in Theddingworth was again acknowledged in 1202, (fn. 60) but the extensive subinfeudation which apparently took place during the 13th century makes it difficult to trace the descent of this property. Some parts remained with Maud's direct descendants, the Esseby family of Ashby Legers (Northants.), but others by the early 14th century, either by enfeoffment or reversion, belonged to the male line of the Trussell family.

Maud married twice: first Robert de Esseby, and secondly (before 1208) Wigan de la Mare. Her grandson and heir Robert de Esseby in 1222 recovered seisin of 6 virgates which her second husband claimed had been given to him before their marriage. (fn. 61) Wigan de la Mare was still holding land in Theddingworth in 1252. (fn. 62) Robert de Esseby, Maud's heir, was succeeded by his son William and by two grandsons, both under age. (fn. 63) William, the younger grandson, was outlawed for murder in 1265–6, and the inheritance passed to Joan de Esseby, his mother, and Joan de Bedeworth, who may have been his wife. The two Joans held this fee of the king, as of the honor of Aumale, as part of their dower. (fn. 64) One of them—it is not clear which—married William de Charnells. The latter in 1279 was holding 6 carucates in Theddingworth of the 'Earl of A.' (presumably Aumale), in the right of his wife. (fn. 65) John de Esseby, brother of the William who was outlawed, appears to have enfeoffed Robert de Esseby who married Margaret, the daughter of Roger Imayne of Theddingworth. Robert's daughter Joan married Alan St. Clare who was in possession in 1316. (fn. 66) His right to part of the inheritance of Maud Trussell was disputed in 1323 by William, the great-grandson of Fulk Trussell, Maud's father, (fn. 67) and in 1328 he recovered seisin of ½ virgate claimed by John, son of William Trussell. (fn. 68) Although Alan St. Clare was assessed for 1/16 knight's fee in Theddingworth in 1346, (fn. 69) it is not certain whether the descendants of Maud Trussell made any further claims.

Edmund Trussell, the second son of William Trussell of Marston Trussell, was also assessed for 1/16 knight's fee in Theddingworth in 1346. (fn. 70) A settlement had been made in 1342 by which property in Theddingworth was conveyed to himself and his wife Margery, the daughter of Walter Doseville. Through the latter they also acquired an interest in the manor of Holt and a fee in Hothorpe. (fn. 71) Edmund was succeeded by his grandson Theobald Trussell of Flore (Northants.) who died c. 1368. Theobald's son Sir John Trussell (d. 1439–40) had a male heir, John, by his first wife, and he appears to have been holding property in Theddingworth in 1426. (fn. 72) John died without issue and Sir John's inheritance therefore passed to his second wife Margaret for her life, and to their daughter Philippa. It is not clear how long the interests of the Trussell family survived. In 1510 Thomas Trussell claimed that a third part of the manors of Flore and Hothorpe, which formed part of the settlement belonging to Margaret Trussell, Sir John's widow, should have reverted after her death to the heirs of Sir Alfred Trussell, his greatgrandfather. Philippa, who married twice, appears to have alienated her own share in 1452. (fn. 73) Margaret also seems to have made various alienations under her late husband's seal. (fn. 74)

Notes for Margery de Doseville:

In 1285 Milisent de Montalt enfeoffed John de Kirkby, later Bishop of Ely, with the manor in Holt held by the 3 daughters of John Burnaby-Alice, Margery, and Sarah-and their husbands who remained tenants in demesne. (fn. 44) Kirkby was enfeoffed as a mesne lord interposed between them and the chief lords of the fee. (fn. 45) His inheritance passed to his brother William in 1290 and at the latter's death in 1302 was divided between their 4 sisters and their husbands. (fn. 46) In the partition the actual dwelling house in Holt passed to the eldest, Margaret, and her husband Walter Doseville, but was probably inhabited by the Heryerd family, descendants of Robert Heryerd or Herierd who married Margery Burnaby. (fn. 47) In 1314 it was stated that the 3 daughters of John Burnaby held a messuage and 6 carucates in Holt, Drayton, Newton, Prestgrave, and Blaston for ½ knight's fee from Walter and Margaret Doseville. (fn. 48) The latter seems to have enfeoffed her daughter Margery with the Doseville interest in Holt on her marriage to Edmund Trussell, second son of Sir William Trussell of Marston Trussell (Northants.), (fn. 49) at some date between 1327 and 1332. (fn. 50) The interests of the other 3 sisters of John and William de Kirkby-Mabel Grymbaud, Alice Prilly, and Maud de Houby-descended to younger branches of their families but cannot be individually traced beyond 1328, 1343, and 1346 respectively. (fn. 51) Presumably the whole Kirkby inheritance came, during the later 14th century, into the hands of the Trussell heirs. Edmund Trussell was succeeded in turn, as lord of TRUSSELL'S manor, by his son William (d. before 1344) (fn. 52) and his grandson Theobald (d. c. 1368). (fn. 53) In 1416 Sir John, son of Theobald Trussell, alienated a moiety of the manor to William Palmer of Westhall in East Carlton (Northants.). (fn. 54)

Notes for William de Esseby:

Robert de Esseby, Maud's heir, was succeeded by his son William and by two grandsons, both under age. (fn. 63) William, the younger grandson, was outlawed for murder in 1265–6, and the inheritance passed to Joan de Esseby, his mother, and Joan de Bedeworth, who may have been his wife.

20 ii. John de Esseby.

Notes for John de Esseby:

John de Esseby, brother of the William who was outlawed, appears to have enfeoffed Robert de Esseby who married Margaret, the daughter of Roger Imayne of Theddingworth. Robert's daughter Joan married Alan St. Clare who was in possession in 1316. (fn. 66) His right to part of the inheritance of Maud Trussell was disputed in 1323 by William, the great-grandson of Fulk Trussell, Maud's father, (fn. 67) and in 1328 he recovered seisin of ½ virgate claimed by John, son of William Trussell.

Notes for Margaret Trussell:

Among the lands of Walter the Fleming, otherwise called Walter de Wahull or Odell (Beds.), there were entered in Domesday Survey 4 hides and 1 virgate in LAMPORT held by Fulcher, a member of the Malsor, or Malesoures, family. (fn. 5) This estate continued to be held of the barony of Wahull until the 16th century. In the 12thcentury Northamptonshire Survey 4 hides in Lamport were held by Simon Malsover of the fee of Wahull. (fn. 6) Peter Malsover of Lamport levied a fine of land in Lamport with John son of Thomas in 1196–7, (fn. 7) and the presentation to the church was made by Sir Peter Malsover in 1217. (fn. 8) He had been succeeded before 1242 by Guy Wake, who with his wife Isabel held a fee here in that year, (fn. 9) and in 1250 presented Richard Trussell to the living. (fn. 10) The advowson was held with the manor, which was in the hands of the Trussells in 1260–1, when a fine was levied of it between Richard and Isabel Trussell. (fn. 11) Dugdale considers that the Trussells of Cublesdon in Staffordshire were the principal male branch of the Trussell family, and the Trussells who held Lamport seem to have belonged to that branch, and to have had under them a younger branch of the family as under-tenants. Richard Trussell, who claimed view of frankpledge, &c, in Lamport in 1276, (fn. 12) was in 1284 holding a knight's fee in Lamport of William Trussell, who held of John de Wahull. (fn. 13) William Trussell, who in 1316 was holding Lamport with Hanging Houghton, (fn. 14) had been succeeded in 1329 by John Trussell, of whose demise Thomas Trussell was then holding the manor for life. (fn. 15) In 1339 John Trussell 'of Cublesdon' levied a fine of the manor and advowson, (fn. 16) and in 1346 he held a fee in Lamport and a quarter fee in Scaldwell. (fn. 17) According to Dugdale, Margaret daughter and heir of William Trussell of Cublesdon married Fulk de Pembruge.

Notes for Fulke de Pembridge:

Fulke Pembrugge

Fulke married 2nd, Isabel.

On his subsequent marriage Fulke appears to have secured another settlement (fn. 34) which, after providing for the joint life interests of himself and his wife Isabel, created a remainder in favour of William Trussell, son of a Lawrence Trussell and grandson of a Warin Trussell, who acquired Acton on the death of Isabel in 1446, he being then 60 years old.

Among the lands of Walter the Fleming, otherwise called Walter de Wahull or Odell (Beds.), there were entered in Domesday Survey 4 hides and 1 virgate in LAMPORT held by Fulcher, a member of the Malsor, or Malesoures, family. (fn. 5) This estate continued to be held of the barony of Wahull until the 16th century. In the 12thcentury Northamptonshire Survey 4 hides in Lamport were held by Simon Malsover of the fee of Wahull. (fn. 6) Peter Malsover of Lamport levied a fine of land in Lamport with John son of Thomas in 1196–7, (fn. 7) and the presentation to the church was made by Sir Peter Malsover in 1217.

(fn. 10) The advowson was held with the manor, which was in the hands of the Trussells in 1260–1, when a fine was levied of it between Richard and Isabel Trussell. (fn. 11) Dugdale considers that the Trussells of Cublesdon in Staffordshire were the principal male branch of the Trussell family, and the Trussells who held Lamport seem to have belonged to that branch, and to have had under them a younger branch of the family as under-tenants. Richard Trussell, who claimed view of frankpledge, &c, in Lamport in 1276, (fn. 12) was in 1284 holding a knight's fee in Lamport of William Trussell, who held of John de Wahull. (fn. 13) William Trussell, who in 1316 was holding Lamport with Hanging Houghton, (fn. 14) had been succeeded in 1329 by John Trussell, of whose demise Thomas Trussell was then holding the manor for life.

Notes for Isabel <Unknown>:

She married 3 times, to Ludlow and lastly Fulk Pembridge.

In November 1410 Isabel Pembridge obtained licence to acquire the advowson of Tong from Shrewsbury Abbey and to convert it into a collegiate church. The college was to consist of a warden and four chaplains and its principal function was to intercede for the souls of Isabel and her three former husbands, Sir Thomas Peytevin, Sir John Ludlow, and Sir Fulk Pembridge, the last of whom had died in 1409. Leave was given to endow the college with the advowson of Tong and a messuage there, the advowson of Orlingbury (Northants.), lands in Sharnford (Leics.), and the reversion of the manor of Guilden Morden (Cambs.). Patronage of the college was vested, after Isabel's death, in Sir Fulk's heir Sir Richard Vernon of Haddon. (fn. 1)

Notes for Sir John Trussell:

Bromley By Ian Bromley

30 Henry VI (1451) Between John Harpur (Harper), of Ruysshale, plaintiff, and Philippa, who was the wife of Thomas Kerdeston, knight, the daughter and heir of John Trussell, knight, defendant of 10 messuages, 9 virgates of land, 30 acres of meadow, 20 acres of pasture and 52s. rent in Theddingworth and Carleton Curlieu.

An explanation from the court rolls of 1454:

33 Henry VI (1454) The sheriff had been ordered to summon John Harpur (Harper) of Russhale, for his term, to answer Nicholas Ovy and Anne, his wife, John Wistowe and Isabel, his wife, and Thomas Holton in a plea that he should give them 10 messuages, 9 virgates of land, 30 acres of meadow, 20 acres of pasture and 52s. rent in Theddingworth and Carleton Curlieu, which Robert de Ernesby had given to Theobald Trussell, knight, and Katherine, his wife, and the heirs of the body of Theobald; and which after the deaths of Theobald and Katherine, and of John, son and heir of Theobald, and of Philippa, daughter and heir of John, and of Elizabeth, one of the daughters of the said Philippa, should descend to the same Anne and to Isabel, the other daughter of the said Philippa, and to Thomas (Holton) the son of the said Elizabeth, kinsman and heir of the said Philippa. The sheriff returned that the writ came too late.

Notes for Alice Hotham:

She married 1st Hugh le Despencer, and was widowed.

ALICE HOTHAM'S LANDS BCM/K/5 [n.d.]

 

Administrative history:

None of the principals of the charter occur later in the muniments. Littleport (Cambs.) was one of the bishop of Ely's manors,[VCH Cambs. iv. 97-9.] so Alice Hotham of Littleport may have been related to John Hotham, bishop of Ely (d. 1337). The bishop acquired manors and lands in Sheldon and Solihull (Warws.), which passed to his great-nephew Sir John Hotham (d. 1351).[VCH Warws. iv. 201-2, 218-19. He was also of Collyweston (Northants.), Bonby (Lincs.) and Hotham (Yorks.): Hist. of Parl. 1386-1421, iv. 666.] Sir John's daughter and heir Alice (d. 1379) married first Hugh Despenser, a younger brother of Edward Lord Despenser, and secondly, by Nov. 1374, Sir John Trussell (d. 1424). Hugh, her son by Despenser, died without issue in 1401 holding Sheldon and Solihull in jointure with his wife Sibyl (d. 1415),[He also held Bonby (Lincs.), Collyweston (Northants.), Hotham (Yorks.), and holdings in Rothley (Leics.) and Cooksland and Seighford (Staffs.): CIPM xviii, nos. 601-6.] Hugh's sister and heir Anne married Edward Butler (d. 1412) but died in 1408 without issue, when the heir was her Despenser cousin Richard, then a minor and still suffering under the attainder of his father Thomas in 1400.[Edward Lord Despenser (d. 1375) was succeeded by his son Thomas, who was attainted in 1400, leaving his son Richard, who died in 1414 aged eighteen, and a daughter Isabel who was the heir.] The Hotham manors in Sheldon and Solihull were settled in 1542 by George Throckmorton on his son Robert and his second wife, and they passed to Thomas, Robert's son by his first wife, Muriel, daughter of Thomas Lord Berkeley.[VCH Warws. iv. 203, 219.] It is possible that the connection explains why the charter remains in the Castle, although it is not clear that Alice Hotham of Littleport was the daughter and heir of Sir John (d. 1351).[There are other possible connections with inheritances recorded above. The surname Dorsington (Dersingtone) and the mention of Stratford upon Avon and Tachbrook suggest a link with Anne Cranford, who inherited the manor of Dorsington, and her second husband Thomas Hall: above, BCM/G/2, BCM/G/4/8 and 10. (Dorsington is 6 miles south-west and Tachbrook Mallory and Bishop's Tachbrook are 8 miles north-east of Stratford.) Ralph Basset held two manors in Sheldon, which he tried to settle on his nephew Hugh Shirley but which eventually passed to the Staffords: above, BCM/G/1.]

Following the death of his mother, three weeks after his birth, Lord Thomas remarried and betrothed his children to Dacre heiresses, and William found himself contracted to marry Elizabeth Dacre at the age of eight. The marriage did not take place until 1577. He went to St. John's College, Cambridge. In 1581, the young couple lived in a home called "Mount Pleasant", in Enfield Chase, Middlesex where their eldest son was born. Their pleasant life was interrupted, however, when William find himself in prison with his half-brother, Phillip. Although he was released, he found himself in prison several times on a variety of charges, hounded primarily because he was a Catholic when the Catholics were not in favor. In 1603 William and his Lady took up residence at Naworth Castle, Cumberland. Unlike many of the Howards, William had the reputation of a man of the highest character. He displayed sound judgment and brought his cultivated mind to the work of restoring order and furthering civilization in the wild districts of the borders. He greatly improved his estates, encouraged agriculture, and attempted to promote the well being of the people in general. His praise worthy efforts were not always appreciated by his neighbors, and many attempts were made to get him into trouble as a recusant; someone who refused to attend the services or recognize the authority of the Church of England. Because he was a Catholic, he was not permitted to hold any public position until 1618, when he was made one of the commissioners for the borders. He insisted on the due execution of the laws, and by his perseverance, he annoyed greatly the neighboring justices, but his proceedings were always in strict accordance with the law. He has been betrayed in "Lay of the Last Minstrel" as a mythical hero by the name of "Belted Will", but he was known in his day as "Bauld (bold) Willie", and his wife as "Bessie with the braid (broad) apron", meaning she had an ample behind. Lord Howard had begun to collect books very early in life, and he formed at Naworth a large library. When a proposal was made in 1617 to revive the Society of Antiquaries, which King James I had for some reason suppressed, a memorial in favor of the project places Lord Howard's name first in the list of its probably members. The couple also maintained a lovely garden. Living close to the Roman Wall, they collected Roman altars and inscriptions and placed them throughout the garden. Unfortunately, they are no longer found there, subsequently scatter or destroyed.

Notes for Sir George Shirley:

He studied at Hart Hall (Later known as Hartford College), in the University of Oxford in 1573. "By the advantage of the most famous and learned tutors, he acquired a knowledge not common of the Greek and Latin tongues, of philosophy, of history, of politics, and other liberal sciences. After he had finished his studies, he presented his service at Court, and undertook the voyage of Holland in 1585 with Robert Earl of Leicester, ever putting himself in those places most eminent for danger and honour".

He entered Gloucester Hall in 1587 and was of Grays Inn in 1602. In 1603 he served as sheriff of Northamptonshire at the time, in company with many gallant men who conducted James the First through that county to his coronation. In 1611, he was created a Baronet.

[Note: A William Bell came to London from Worcester to study law. He shared chamber and bed with George Shirley. Bell became a Roman Priest and wasexecuted in 1643].

George Shirleys arms were taken away for 4 years as he was suspected as being a Catholic, although he outwardly conformed to the church of England. (If a Papists refused to come to church on Sunday, they were liable to a penalty of 20 pounds for every lunar month during which they absented themselves). He appears to have died a Catholic.

"His piety was so remarkable in his large and bountiful alms, that he merited the glorious title of father and nourisher of the poor, relieving during the great dearth, 500 a day at his gates"

He married Philadelphia Carey 1584 in Clovelly, Devonshire, England, daughter of Henry Carey and Anne Morgan. She was born Abt. 1567.

Notes for Thomas Scrope:

Warden of the West Marches. It was he who apprehended Willie Armstrong (Kinmount Willie) in 'The Debatable Lands' whilst under a flag of truce. Kinmount Willie was escorted to Carlisle in chains. He was sentenced to died and was going to be hanged. The night before his intended execution, 'The Bold Buccleugh' broke into Carlisle Castle (He bribed a member of the garrison to leave a postern door unbarred). They made good their escape. Scrope had a sense of humour failure and set off in pursuit. He burnt the towns of Annan and Dumfries to the ground, capturing two hundred prisoners whom he marched home 'naked, chained together on leashes'. This caused a major diplomatic incident. Queen Elizabeth was furious and told Scrope that she would not condone his bestial behaviour. James VI of Scotland is said to have gnawed his finger nails down to the bone in his anxiety. He was terrified that Buccleugh had ruined his chances of succeeding Elizabeth on the throne of England. Buccleugh was ordered to hand himself over to the English for their pleasure. Kinmount Willie was never apprehended again and is said to have died of old age in his bed.

Notes for Philadelphia Carey:

Philadelphia Carey was born at Cannonrow in Westminster several years before Queen Elizabeth came to the throne. The exact dates seem to vary in the sources which is typical of the time. Her father was Sir Henry Carey, 1st Baron Hunsdon, and her mother was Anne Morgan. She was the 4th of 11 children and the second daughter. Her older brothers George and John each inherited the Hunsdon title, her older sister Catherine married Charles Howard, Baron Howard of Effingham and was later Countess of Nottingham.

Philadelphia and her family served the Queen in a variety of trusted positions. Even after her marriage to Thomas Scrope, 10th B. Scrope of Bolton, Mascham and Upsall, she remained in the Queen's service as one of her ladies-in-waiting. Henry Carey served as Warden of the Eastern Marches on the Scottish border. His friend Henry Scrope 9th B. Scrope was Warden of the Western Marches, the marriage between Philadelphia and Thomas was arranged by the fathers to cement political ties between the two great families. Philadelphia and Thomas had only one son, Emmanuel.

She was raised in an interesting combination of homes. A large part of her life was spent up on the Scottish borders, a rough country where you needed to be strong to survive. The other part of her childhood was spent at Court where you needed a different kind of strength to survive.

Thomas Pearsall, youngest son of Edmond, became progenitor of the family line in America. Born between 1573 and 1584 in London, as early as 1613 he assumed management of his father's tobacco business in England, Holland, and Virginia. In 1615 he acquired this business as his own, and thenceforth traveled back and forth between Europe and the New World. Sometime after 1630 he took up permanent residence in Isle of Wight, Virginia, acquiring land there and in Maryland (St. Michael's Hundred, St. Mary's.) He died in Virginia in 1642, and Mark Pheypo became administrator of his estate in Maryland.

Thomas Pearsall married circa 1607 in London Mary Brent, daughter of William Brent, of Gloucestershire and London, England.

"In 1638, the last tobacco monopoly (the Dutch West Indies Company) was abolished. Open trade commenced and the Dutch-Englishmen left Virginia for Long Island. Thomas Pearsall kept his Virginia Home. His son Samuel took charge of the Kent Island business. Thomas Pearsall the younger, Nicholas, Henry and George moved to Long Island. (Pearsall p.983) The Pearsall brothers in Long Island were aided by their former Jailer (under Governor Wouter Van Twiller) and by the son of the former Governor Jorrison who was a family friend.

"Thomas Pearsall, Sr. Settled in St. Michael's Hundred, Maryland in 1642. He paid twenty three ponds of tobacco as property tax that year. (Archives of Maryland, page 146) The capitol of Maryland at this time was St. Mary's which was also located in St. Michael's Hundred. Thomas Pearsall died there in 1642." (Pearsalls 985)

Notes for Col. Giles Brent:

or Col. Gyles Brent

A member of the Virginia Colony twelve years before he appears in Maryland records (1625).

Arrived in Maryland in 1637 with his brohter Mr. Fulke Brent, who returned to England the following March.

He was appointed Deputy Governor in 1643 by Gov. Leonard Calvert upon his return to England.

He married the daughter and only child of the Tyac or Emperor of the Piscataway Indians, and he laid claim to the most part of Maryland, and fell into contentious, but futile dispute with Lord Baltimore. For this reason, and perhaps also because he was weary of the bickerings of the Puritans in Maryland, he crossed the potomac and buried himself with his Indian bride in the wilderness of Virginia 1646*. (he was a member of the Maryland Council on 19 June 1647, so this must have been later). He settled on the north shore of Aquia Creek at his mouth, and therehe built a house which, with agreeable humor, he called "Peace." Giles Brent thus became the first citizen of the "freshes" and also the northernmost English resident of Virginia.

Notes for [Unknown 2] Brent:

Two generations of "missing" ancestors are inserted to indicate the family from England which is also ancestor to Giles Brent and which has a close relationship to the Pearshall / Purcell family, which later intermarried with descendants of Hugh Brent. While not proven to be a great-grandson Richard Brent and Mary Huggerford, Giles Brent was their grandson and this approximate placement allows connection to some of the ancient ancestors from England.

Notes for Henry Shirley:

2nd Bt Shirley

His father gave him a noble education, an exact knowledge of the liberal sciences, and from Oxford he was sent for the bettering of his understanding and the gaining of languages, with license of the King, to travel beyond the seas. With all the qualities that complete a gentleman, he returned to his country and addressed himself to Henry Prince of Wales, and was received with honor. When Henry Prince of Wales died, it so devestated him that he retired into the country to live a solitary life, determining not to think of courtly pomp or glory.

Upon the persuasion of his honored father, he married Dorothy Devereux, daughter of Robert Earl of Essex, the favorite of the Queen, and sister of Robert the last Earl.

Immediately upon the death of his father, Sir Henry by indenture, dated May 9, 1622, executed a strict entail of the family estates in Shirley, Brailesford, Hone, Ednaston, Longford, Boobton, Hollington, Yeveley, Rodisley, Wyaston, Borowes,Thurvaston, and Bradley (Derby Co.), Silby and Ratcliff.

In 1628, Henry was a prisoner in the Fleet for scandalising Earl of Huntingdon. In 1633 he was busy rebuilding the manor house of Ragdale in Leicestershire, an estate inherited from the Bassett family by marriage with the Shirleys.

Henry was a Roman Catholic.

He had a large carved pew made for Breedon on the Hill.Bart of Astwell

Notes for Robert Shirley:

4th Baronet Shirley

In 1645, Robert was admitted a fellow commoner of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. The following year upon the premature death of his brother, Sir Charles Shirley, succeeded him in the baronetcy and estates, being at that time about fifteen years old, and a war, as also his brother had been to his uncle Lord Essex.

Upon the death of Lord Essex, Sir Robert Shirley succeeded in the right of his mother Lady Dorothy to a moiety of the estates of the Devereux family. About 1653 a division was effected by which it was agreed that the Marquis of Hertford, afterwards Duke of Somerset, who had married the Lady Frances Devereux, eldest sister of Lord Essex, should have his share of the property, Drayton Basset, in the county of Stafford with the estate in county of Hereford and Brecon, Essex House, in London and a moiety of the barony of Farney (Shirley estate), in county of Monaghan in Ireland which had been granted to Walter Earl of Essex, by Queen Elizabeth, in the year 1576. To Robert Shirley's share fell the Chartley estate in the county of Stafford, with property at Newcastle-under-Lyne, the tenements adjoining Essex House, in London, a rent charge of 300 pounds going out of Havodwyn, Blanarion or Blagnaron, and Penarth in the county of Cardigan, and the other moiey of the barony of Farney, (Shirley estates in Ireland).

On his uncle's death, Sir Robert Shirley retired into the country and from that time exerted himself as a zealous adherent to the sacred cause of his sovereign and the Church of England, in whose holy communion he was educated by his mother, Lady Dorothy; for the Devereux family had early renounced the errors of the Church of Rome, to which Sir Robert's father, Sir Henry, was so sincerely attached.

During the year 1647-48 Sir Robert appears to have been with other Royalists at Oxford, and appears to be the one who was resident with his young wife in St. John's college in that university.

Sir Robert Shirley built a church at Staunton Harold during the time Cromwell made it penal for any persons to keep in their houses any of the sequestered or ejected ministers in the capacity of chaplains or tutors,which forbade them likewise to preach to any others than the members of their own families, to perform of the offices of religion, or to use the book of Common Prayer. Staunton Harold continued to be during Sir Robert's life, an asylum to many of the distressed divines. So upseting was this that an order was issued to Sir Robert saying, "He that could afford to build a church, could no doubt afford also to equip a ship;" Sir Robert Shirley refused, and was sent to the Tower of London, dying at age 23, suspicioned of poisoning.

The following letter of condolence was written by Charles the II to Lady Shirley about a year after her husband's death.

"IT HATH BEEN MY PARTICULAR CARE OF YOU THAT I HAVE THIS LONG DEFERRED TO LAMENT WITH YOU THE GREATE LOSSE THAT YOU AND I HAVE SUSTAINED, LEAST INSTEEDE OF COMFORTING I MIGHT FARTHER EXPOSE YOU TO THE WILL OF THOSE WHO WILL BE GLAD OF ANY OCCASION TO DO YOU FURTHER REJUDICE; BUT I AM PROMISED THAT THIS SHALL BE PUT SAFELY INTO YOUR HANDS, THOUGH IT MAY NOT SO SOONE AS I WISH; AND I AM VERY WILLING YOU SHOULD KNOW, WHICH I SUPPOSE YOU CANNOT DOUBTE, THAT I BEARE A GREATE PARTE WITH YOU OF YOUR AFFLLICTION, AND WHENEVER IT SHALL BE IN MY POWER TO MAKE IT LIGHTER, YOU SHALL SEE I RETAYNE A VERY KINDE MEMORY OF YOUR FRINDE BY THE CARE I SHALL HAVE OF YOU AND ALL HIS RELATIONS; AND OF THIS YOU MAY DEPENDE UPON THE WORD OF YOUR VERY AFFECTIONE FRINDE... CHARLES R."

He met (1) Martha Jeanes. He married (2) Elizabeth Manners 1609, daughter of John Manners and Elizabeth Charlton.

Notes for Emanuel Scrope:

Emanuel Scrope, Earl of Sunderland.

His marriage was childless

On his father's death in 1609 he became the 11th Lord Scrope of Bolton. In the same year he had married Lady Elizabeth Manners, daughter of the 4th Earl of Rutland, but this marriage remained childless. He was summoned to Parliament from 5 April 1614 until 17 May 1625. On 19 June 1627 he was created Earl of Sunderland. However, he died aged only forty-five in 1630 and was buried at Langar. As he was without legitimate issue, the title of Earl of Sunderland became extinct. With the title of Baron Scrope of Bolton being regarded as dormant, the bulk of his estate went to the four children he had fathered by Martha Jeanes, of Jeanes or Jones, otherwise Sandford, "his servant, daughter of a poor taylor living in Twifield Heath, Buckinghamshire".

These four children were (1) John Scrope, otherwise Jones, otherwise Sandford, who held Bolton Castle for the King and was fined 7,000 pounds stirling as a delinquent; he died of the plage and was buried 31 July 1646.

The other three children were girls. John was probably the second child, the first daughter was Mary Scrope, she died 1 November 1680 at Moulins in France. She married (1) Henry Carey, Lord Leppington (2) Charles Paulet, 1st Duke of Bolton. Via her daughter Lady Jane Paulet, this Mary is an ancestor of Lady Diana Spencer

The next daughter, Elizabeth Scrope, born circa 1727, married Thomas Savage, 3rd Earl Rivers. The last daughter, Lady Annabella Scrope, born 1629 died 12 March 1703 and was married to John Grubham Howe.

11th and last B. Scrope of Bolton was created Lord President of The King's Council in the North. He left all his worldly wealth to his natural children. He settled Langar and the rest of his estate upon his natural issue by Martha Janes, one of whom, Annabella, married John Howe, second son of Sir John Howe of Compton, in Gloucestershire.

Notes for Charles Townshend:

2nd Viscount; Secretary of State

http://home.worldonline.co.za/~townshend/turnipbio1.htm

Charles Townshend, Second Viscount, (born 1674, died 1738) a statesman of unsulli integrity, was the eldest son of Horatio, the first Viscount. He succeeded to the Peerage in December 1687, being educated at Eton and King's College, Cambridge. When he took his seat in the House of Lords his sympathies leant to Toryism, but this predilection soon faded away, and in February 1701 it was rumoured among the courtiers that he would hold office of Privy Soal in the Whig Ministry which William the Third had in view. For some years after the accession of Queen Anne he remained without office, but on September 29th 1707 he was created Yeomen of the Guard, and in the same year he was summoned to the Privy Council, a distinction renewed by the queen's two successors to the throne. The command og the Yeomen remained in his hands until June 13th 1711, but its responsibilities did not prevent him from acting as joint plent-potentiary with the Duke of Marlborough in the peace negotiations with France which were carried on at Gertruydenburg, near Breda, o from serving as ambassador extraordinary at the Hague Congress (May 2, 1709 to March 26, 1711). Townshend was in high favour of George the First and on that king's arrival at the Hague in September 1714 he published the appointment of Charles as Secretary of State for the Southern Department, entrusting to his new minister the privilege of nominating his own colleague: Horace Walpole (??? Robert Walpole), his brother-in-law and private secretary recommended Stanhope for the vacant post, and Stanhope was duly appointed. Townshend did not neglect to avail himself of the advantages afforded by his attendance on the king, and before he arrival of George the First in England he had obtained complete ascendency both over his mind and the dispositions of the advisors by whom his line of conduct was usually determined. The policy of the new ministers, both at home and abroad, lay in the promotion of peace. With this object they endeavoured to limit the charges against their predecessor Harley, Lord Oxford, to high crimes and misdemeanours. To gain this and they brought about, in 1716, an alliance between those ancient rivals in arms, France and England. In spite of their success their influence was gradually undermined by the intrigues of Lord Sunderland and by the discontent of the Hanoverian favourites, who deemed the pensions and the places which they had gained as insufficient reward for their exertions.

In October, 1716 Stanhope accompanied the King on a journey to Hanover, and during this visit was seduced from his allegiance to his colleague by the wily Sunderland, who had ingratiated himself into royal favour. George the First was induced into believing that Townshend and Walpole were caballing with the prince of Wales, and were forming designs against the royal authority. Townshend was dismissed in December 1716 from his place of Secretary of State, and was afforded in lieu thereof the splendid banishment of Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, a gilded sinecure which he at first contemptuously declined, but finally condescended ultimately to accept on condition that he was not required to set foot on Irish soil. His latent spirit of hostility to this arrangement quickly developed into open antagonism, and in March 1717 he was dismissed from this position. At the close of May 1720, a partial reconciliation took place between the opposing Whig sections of Stanhope and Townshend. The Latter was readmitted into the Ministry as Lord President of the Council on 11th June 1720, and his devoted colleague, Sir Robert Walpole, became Paymaster General.

When the South Sea Bubble burst, the fortunes of the Ministry shared in the misfortunes of the scheme which they had promoted. Stanhope, in a paroxysm of passion during a heated debate broke a blood vessel, and Sunderland, although acquitted of the charge of personal corruption, was forced to retire into private life. The withdrawal of these statesmen assigned to their rivals the chief positions in the state. Townshend became Secretary of State on the 10th February 1721, and Walpole gained the position of First Lord of the Treasury and Chancellor of the Exchequer.

The death of George the First threatened a change of advisors, but the dismay of the new king's favourite, Spencer Compton, at being called upon to draw up the royal speech led to the old ministers of the Crown being retained in their places. What the attack on the opposition could not affect, the internal strife of the administration accomplished. Townshend was of a proud, impetuous nature, born more accustomed to rule than obey. His family had for many generations stood higher in the social life of Norfolk than Walpole's progenitors, and when he himself attained the distinction in politics his position as a member of the Upper House was greater than that enjoyed by his friend in the Commons.As the power of the Lower House increased, and as Walpole became more and more the object of attacks by the Tories, the pre-eminence of Townshend passed from him. So long, to use the witty remark of Sir Robert Walpole, as the firm of Townshend and Walpole was such, things went well with them, but when the positions were reversed jealousies arose between the partners. The growing alienation was hastened by the death in 1725 of the Secretary's wife, Walpole's sister. At the close of 1729 Townshend endeavoured to obtain the appointment of his old and attached friend, Lord Chesterfield, as his fellow secretary of state, and the failure of the attempt brought about a fierce scene between himself and Walpole. They broke into passionate words, seized one another by the coat collars, and would have come to blows had their friends not intervened. After the outbreak of passion further co-operation was impossible and Townshend had the good sense to recognise the position. He retired tp private life on 15th May 1730.

The Chief domestic events of Townshend's ministry were the impeachment of Bishop Atterbury; the partial restoration of Lord Bolingbroke; and the troubles in Ireland over the granting to a man named Wood of a patent for coining pence. Its concluding act was the signing of the Treaty of Seville on November 9th 1729.

Charles Townshend died of apoplexy on 21st June 1738, aged 64. Slow in forming, but resolute in adhering to, his opinion, and like so many many men of that stamp, he was impatient of contradiction. His manners have been styled "course, rustic, and seemingly brutal" but these defects were not visible in his domestic life. Never did minister leave office with cleaner hands. He did not add one acre to his estate, nor leave large fortunes to his younger children.

Notes for Eleanor Norwood:

or Elinor Norwood (did she die Feb 1623/4? as shown in Culpeper Connections)

widow of Sir George Blount of Sodington, co. Worc., s.p.

Because she had several Blount children, including the heir to Sodington, she was buried among the Blounts in Mamble church (See the MI. in Nash, Worcestershire, ii, 161); the available evidence for her Culpeper m. being the entry of her burial in the Mamble register. Her significance on this record is that she brought the Culpepers a new link with Virginia, for she was the aunt of Henry Norwood, the cavalier, whose romantic Voyage to Virginia in 1649 is a classic of adventure (Force's Tracts, vol. iii, No. 10), and who was, after the Restoration, the Treasurer of the colony. See Rudder, Gloucestershire, p. 521 ; Fosbrook, Abstracts of Smiths Lives of the Berkeleys, p. 181; Nash, Worcestershire, ii, 163; and Henry Norwood's will, 1689, P.C.C. Ent, 143.

John Culpeper (John11 of Wigsell), 1565-1635, of Feckenham, second surviving son of his generation, makes his first appearance on the existing record as 'my brother John Colepipir's son, my godson,' in the 1581 will of his maternal uncle, John Sidley of Southfleet (P.C.C. Darcy, 31; Waters' Gleanings, ii, 969). In October, 1587, or soon after the death of his brother William, when, according to the later testimony of his tombstone, he would be 17 years of age, he was entered at the Middle Temple under the description 'late of New Inn, gent... second son of John Colepeper of Wigsell, Sussex, esq.' (Hopwood, i, 293). Unlike his eldest brother, whose record so far runs parallel, he had entered upon a professional career. Duly called to the bar, by 1595 he was having his youthful kinsmen 'bound' with him, and in 1599 is listed as a Bencher. Frequenting the household of his uncle Francis at Greenway Court, he there met and married his first wife, and after Francis' death established her at Greenway Court (then the property of his younger brother Alexander), as appears from the baptism of one of his children in Harrietsham; but later he occupied a house in Salehurst, as appears from his elder brother's inq. p.m. already cited.

That his law practice was profitable, despite his reputation, recorded on his MI., for composing more litigation that he fomented, appears from his ability to subscribe to the Virginia Company under the charter of 1609; and a year later, under the third charter, to make one of the largest individual subscriptions (£37, 10s. 6d.) to the 'supply' which saved the colony at Jamestown from death by inanition (Brown, Genesis, 218, 407, 546).

Having been designated, by the will of his uncle Martin, the contingent remainderman of Astwood in Feckenham, he removed his family to Astwood after the inheritance had become certain by the death without issue of his cousin Sir Stephen12; and there buried his first wife in June, 1612. This occupancy was by arrangement with Dr. Martin Culpeper's widow, who had a life estate but had meanwhile re-married and removed her residence elsewhere. In 1616 he bought out that aunt's interest, and then gave over his law practice to become a country gentleman. Being now 'of Feckenham,' he became a diligent presiding magistrate at quarter sessions; being included, a generation ahead of Sir Roger de Coverley, of the quorum in the Worcestershire commission from 1618-1628; again, like Sir Roger, in 1624 he served the office of Sheriff of that county 'with music before me, a feather in my hat and my horse well bitted' (Bund, Cal. Quarter Sessions Papers, Worcestershire, 1591-1643, 1900; Sheriff Lists in Fuller's Worthies).

But when he was nearly seventy years of age, for what reason does not appear, he sold Astwood to one Thomas Rich, and returned to Greenway Court to die. There, on December 14, 1635, he made his will and on December 18th following, as the parish register testifies, 'Mr. John Culpeper, Armiger,' was buried in the chancel of Hollingbourne church.

WILLIAM NORWOOD first appears in the Virginia records in October 6, 1649, when THOMAS GYOR deeded him land in Isle of Wight County. WILLIAM was involved in a lawsuit with CARBERRY KEGAN of Isle of Wight in 1653 and 1654, which is mentioned several times in the Court records. WILLIAM finally sold the land in dispute to KEGAN on December 9, 1656. On January 23, 1654, WILLIAM was deeded land in Surry County by JOHN BLACKBONE, and he continued to live there the rest of his life. In his will, dated June 6, 1702, and probated March 7, 1703, WILLIAM left one shilling to son, EDWARD; his house and 100 acres, horse, hoggs, etc. to son, GEORGE; a neck of land called the "Barren Track" with 80 acres to be separated from his other land along with horses and Negroes to son, RICHARD; a large pewter dish to daughter, ELIZABETH BRANCH; a flat handled silver spoon and large pewter dish to daughter, LYDIA SOWERBY; one Negro and a small silver cup to daughter, SARAH; a silver spoon to granddaughter, ELIZABETH BRANCH; a silver spoon, Negro, and a horse to daughter, MARY; with the remainder of his estate to his wife.

Notes for Lydia Jordan:

There is no proof that Lydia is a sister of Arthur Jordan and Col. George Jordan. She is too old to have been the daughter of nephew George Jordan, who gifted property to Lydia's husband, William Norwood.

There is a chance that she is not a Jordan at all.

In George Jordan's will in Surry Co., VA he mentions his God-children George and Lydia, leaving them some money to buy a spoon apiece. George Jordan was Chief Justice of Virginia from Surry County.

Notes for Gov. Sir William Berkeley:

Governor of Virginia, 1641-44, 1645-52, 1660-77.

Notes for Frances Culpeper:

"She was baptised in Hollingbourne, May 27, 1634, as 'Francis, dau. of Thomas Culpeper, esq. and Katherine his wife.' The earliest evidence for her in Virginia is the reference in the will of Samuel Filmer (1667, P.C.C. Penn, 58; cf. Va. Mag., xv, 181) to 'my friend and cousin Mrs. Frances Stephens wife of Mr. Samuel Stephens of Virginia.' Stephens' death and her subsequent m. to Sir William Berkeley are recited in a Virginia act of September, 1674 (Hening, ii, 322). Her final m. is reported in Lord Culpeper's letter to his sister in 1681 (Va. Hist. Register, iii, 192) ; and it was from the son of her third husband by an earlier m. who succeeded to Green Spring, that the Lees inherited her portrait which we reproduce. She was living in good health in her fifty-sixth year in July, 1690, as reported by William Byrd the elder (Va. Mag., xxvi, 128), but must have died soon after, for there is no mention of her in the will of her brother, Alexander (1691). She was buried in the church yard at Jamestown, where Dr. Tyler (Cradle of the Republic, p. 129) deciphered a fragment of her tombstone as follows:

...yeth the Bod... Lady Franc... eley...

"Dame Frances Berkeley appears in Virginia history a woman of high spirit, loyal and intensely partizan. When Col. Jeffreys and the other Commissioners reached Virginia to investigate her husband's conduct of the government during and after Bacon's Rebellion, she organized the 'Green Spring faction' to frustrate their politics and with the aid of Ludwell and Robert Beverley carried the Assembly along with her. The best of the anecdotes of this campaign is of her putting the common hangman up as an improvised postilion when the Governor's coach conducted the Commissioners away from a visit of ceremony at Greenspring (See Jeffreys' complaints in Am. & W. I., 1677-80, passim). At Leeds Castle the Historical MSS. Commission (Sixth Report, 465) brought to light a document in this quarrel–a. letter addressed to Berkeley, dated Virginia, August 2, 1677, and signed 'F. Berkeley,' It begins: 'My dear, dear Sir,' and, after some discussion of property in Jamaica, proceeds, 'as soon as your back was turned, the Lieut. Governor [Jeffreys] said he would lay 100 £ that you would not be permitted to see the King, but would be sent to the Tower.' On the date of this letter the Governor was already dead, but the news had not reached Virginia. It was her last message to her husband, and came into her brother's hands. Under Berkeley's will (Hening, ii, 558, in which she is described, six years after marriage, as 'my dear and most virtuous wife') she became one of the proprietors of Carolina. By a curious combination of circumstances she had the good fortune to sell this interest twice, in 1682 and again in 1684, and each time to be paid for it. The story is well told in McCrady, South Carolina under the Proprietary Government, p. 234.

485.

Notes for Sir Thomas Russell:

Sir Thomas (Malvern) Russell to distinguish him from cousins. He was at St. John's College, Oxford, 5 Nov 1591, aged 14. Member of Parliament for Worcester county in 1601, and Sheriff in 1603.

Children of Thomas Russell and Elizabeth Spencer are:

654 i. Sir William19 Russell, born Abt. 1602 in Strensham, Worcestershire; died 30 Nov 1669. He married Frances Reade 01 Dec 1624; born Abt. 1603 in Brocket Hall.

Notes for Sir William Russell:

of Co. Worcester, attended Wadham College, Oxford, matriculated 12 May 1620, aged 18. Student Middle Temple 1621 and Gray's Inn 1631, as treasurer of the King's navy, created a baronet 12 March 1626/7. Sheriff of Worcestershire in 1635/6 and 1642/3. Fought vigorously on the side of Charles I, as Colonel of a regiment of cavalry, which he led to Powick, where he joined the other cavaliers serving under the command of Prince Rupert.

At the end of the Civil War, Col. Henry Washington who was the leader of the royal forces in Worcester agreed to surrender the town. The garrisons were to be withdrawn from Worcester, Evesham and Strensham; but it was stipulated that the Bishop of Worcester, Sir William Russell and Col. Lygon (Ligon) were to be restored to the possession of their houses and estates. These stipulations were not acceptable to Maj. Gen. Raynesborough, the commander of the parliamentary army besieging the city, on account of the very active part that Sir William Russell had taken on behalf of the King, and in reply he excluded that staunch follower of the Stuart fortunes from the peace arrangements. This halted the negotiations for a long while.

Sir William Russell was urged to escape in disguise, which he refused to do saying that he would willingly submit to execution for the public good; that he had but one life to lose, and that it could not be better spent. As he was unwilling to either flee or longer delay the treaty, "the noblemen and gentlemen, thinking themselves bound in honor, signed a letter to Sir Thomas Fairfax, desiring that Sir William Russell might have the benefit of the treaty, and that he could not any other means so oblige the country". Fairfax replied at once that Sir William Russell should be allowed to surrender with the others, and that he should be treated as a gentleman. ... However, clemency did not extend to the castle of Strensham, as the Cromwellians tore it down stone by stone, so that nothing was left but the moat.

Beyond that Sir William Russell was fined 1800 pounds by a Committee of Parliament for having been on the losing side of the Civil War. When he asked for a pass (in 1655) for himself and two servants to "go beyond the seas" he was refused. The restoration of Charles II in 1660 instantly changed his position from disgrace to favor, and his name appears on a list of Justices of the Peace for Worcestershire in the same year, along with Col. Thomas Lygon.

655 ii. Margaret Russell. She married John Wintour.

Notes for John Russell:

John (Chief) Russell.

The following is a collection of quotes and paraphrases from "The Russell Family In Early Virginia", Chapter I "The Russell Family in England" by Louis des Cognets, Jr.

"... was a student at Gloucester Hall (now Worcester College, Oxford), 17 Jan 1600/1, aged 13, of Worcester county, equitis fil (knight's son). As there was only one Russell family in Worcester who were knights, and as his father Sir John (Zutphen) Russell, had named his younger son John in his will of 1587, the identification is definite."

"... a member of the Second Supply ... sailed to Ameria under the command of Thomas West, Lord Delaware, a descendant of the Roger de la Ware who had possessed Strensham before the succession of James Russell in 1283. The bitter quarrl between his father and his mother's family, the Sheldons, might have been one factor that decided him to start life anew in a far country. ... is among a list of gentlement who landed at "James Cittie" in 1608."

 

The following is a collection of quotes and paraphrases from "The Russell Family In Early Virginia", Chapter II "The Russell Family in Virginia" by Louis des Cognets, Jr.

Presumed grandson John (Rappahannock) Russell was likely born by 1645, which implies that Dr. John Russell may have been born by 1623. As that was the year in which John (Chief) Russell was known to be alive and at his plantation near Jamestown, he is qualified to the father of Dr. John Russell and grandfather of John (Rappahannock) Russell. One fact that sustains this relationship ... John Bilington was reported as the owner of the manor of Churchill, not far from Strensham in 1397.

Dr. John Russell owned land on Chikacone Creek in Northumberland County 29 Nov 1658 with Colonel John Trussell and John Chandler (Chandeler) as neighbors on the same stream. Both Trussell and Chandeler appeared on the list of 1623 in proximity to John (Chief) Russell. John Trussell had been born in 1605, came to Virginia in 1622, and was a Burgess for Northumberland County between 1649 and 1655. He was presiding Justice in 1659, and died 21 May 1660.

John (Chief) Russell was mentioned in 1608 as one of the "gallants" of the Second Supply, and as a "proper gentleman". Walter Russell, Doctor of Physicke, Francis West and George Yarrington (Yarranton) were also among those classed as gentlemen.

The following year of 1609 Captain John Smith and John (Chief) Russell were left alone in a house with the Powhatan and a few squaws, when suddenly the crafty Indian disappeared, and a crowd of armed warriors surrounded the place. Without a moment's hesitation Smith and Russell charged out with drawn swords. This was so unexpected that the savage tribesmen were taken by surprise, and fled in such haste that they tumbled over one another to get away from the sharp blades of the two Englishmen.

On another occasion Captain John Smith went to see Opekankano (Opecancanough) in his village, which was located where the Pamunkey and the Mattapony Rivers unite to form the York. He was accompanied by George Percy, a younger son of the Earl of Northumberland, Francis West, a brother of Lord Delaware, and John (Chief) Russell. ... Captain ... Smith ... followed by Percy, West and Russell he dashed into Opekankano's house, andthere they "seized him by his long scalp-lock", and then "dragged him before the astonished multitude, and held a pistol to his breast." Such resolute behavior won a bloodless victory. Opekankano ordered his fighting men to fall back, which they did, and the little party of settlers returned safely to Jamestown.

In 1621 John (Chief) Russell was fortunate enough to escape the massacre of that year, for in 1623 he was listed as living on his plantation over against "James Cittie." Among his immediate neighbors were John West, Morice Loyd and Aron Conway. John Trussell was located at West and Shirley Hundred, and nearby him were Francis West, Isaac Maddeson (Madison), Mary Maddeson and Thomas Maddeson. Ann Ashley was living in James Cittie, John Throgmorton on the Eastern Short, and John Chandeler (Chandler) at Bass's Choice. These names all recur along the trail of the Russell family.

In 1637 John (Chief) Russell transported "Jon Asley" to Virginia. By 1730 evolution in spelling had changed it to "John Ashley," with William Russell acting as a witness for the purchase of some land in Spotsylvania County.

Memo: 9 generations

Children of John Russell are:

657 i. <Unknown>19 Russell, born Bef. 1623.

Notes for <Unknown> Russell:

This may have been a "first" Dr. John Russell.

John (Rappahannock) Russell was likely born by 1645, which implies that Dr. John Russell may have been born by 1623 [presuming one to be the father of the other]. As that was the year in which John (Chief) Russell was known to be alive and at his plantation near Jamestown, he is qualified to the father of Dr. John Russell and grandfather of John (Rappahannock) Russell.

There appear to be two John Russells, each likely born in the mid-1640's, each thought to be closely related to or the son of Dr. John Russell.

658 ii. <Unknown> Russell, born Abt. 1625.

Notes for Arthur Purcell:

Thanks to Gayle Erickson:

On August 9, 1694, Arthur Purcell (along with William Godwin) was instructed to inventory the estate of Thomas Joyner. In December of that same year, a suit filed by Lt. Col. Samuel Bridger, administrator of the Joseph Woory estate, for non-payment of debt against Arthur Purcell was dismissed. Two months later, Lt. Col. Bridger and Arthur Purcell were again tied up in litigation. Bridger sued Arthur for 1415 pounds of tobacco. Arthur counter-sued for 1200 pounds of tobacco, claiming that Bridger had not paid him for building a house. The case was tied up for quite some time.

In April of 1699, Arthur Purcell bought 1,400 acres on Blackwater Swamp from Thomas Joyner's estate. In his will, Arthur gave his son, Arthur, the land on Blackwater Swamp, and to his son, Thomas, the land bought from the Joyner estate. The will also named his daughter, Isabella, and his "loving wife", Mary. His estate was not appraised until August of 1729.

Arthur Pearsall was born about 1640. He married about 1670 Mary who was probably a daughter of Thomas Joyner. Arthur's property and Thomas Joyner's adjoined. Arthur Pursell one of the appraisers of Thomas Joyner's estate (Blanche Adams Chapman, Wills and Administrations of Isle of Wight County, Virginia, 1647-1800, published 1938, p. 6, Deed Book 1, p. 176.

Thomas Joyner left a numcupative will in 1695; however efforts to secure copy have not been successful. Arthur Pursell named his second son, Thomas.
