Simmons, chaplain to the Household Cavalry, officiated, and the musical portion of the service was rendered by the band of the Grenadier Guards, under the direction of Lieutenant Miller, and by the choristers of St. Peter's Church. The service began with the playing of two voluntaries and the "Dead March" in Saul. The hymns were "Hark, my soul! It is the Lord," "The saints of God," and "The King of Love my Shepherd is." At the conclusion of the service the National Anthem was sung and the "Last Post" sounded, the drummers of the Grenadier Guards being placed in the vestry of the church.

| 408 | --- "The Times" Wednesday, April 10, 1968, page 12: Lady Headlam, widow of Sir Cuthbert Morley Headlam, the first and last baronet, died on Saturday. She was Georgina Beatrice, daughter of George Baden Crawley, and married in 1904. Her husband died in 1964. --- "The Times" Friday, April 19, 1968, page 12: BEATRIVE LADY HEADLAM L.E.J. writes:--- Had Lady Headlam died in the nineteen-thirties and not, as she died, last week, her achievements must surely have been widely noticed by the national press. As it was, not a typewriter clicked. For Beatrice Headlam, wife of the late Sir Cuthbert Headlam, Bt., P.C., D.S.O., Conservative M.P. for a Newcastle constituency, probably did more for the out-of-works in the distressed areas of Durham County than any other single person. From her home near Barnard Castle she set up, in 1928, an employment agency through which no less than 10,000 young people were found jobs in the south of England --- a truly remarkable feat. In addition she revived dying hom industries, such as the art of quilting (using the traditional Durham patterns) by which housewives could earn money in their own homes, and arranged for the teaching of wrought-iron work and furniture-maiking to the men. For good measure she sent cripples, at her own expense, to orthopaedic specialists in London and Shropshire. None of this tireless good-doing was allowed to damp down her high spirits and love of laughter, or to interfere with her perennial task of cheering up a brilliant and devoted, but congenitally despondent husband. | Crawley, Georgina Beatrice (I00195)

| 410 | --- "The United Service Magazine" 1832, page 431: DEATHS. October 5th. Capt. George Langford, R.N. aged 52. This officer was promoted to the rank of [Post] Captain in March, 1808, while commanding the Sappho, for capturing a Danish ship of war, of superior force, called the Admiral Yarol. He served nearly the whole of his time as Midshipman and Lieutenant, in the fleet under the command of the immortal Nelson; and was present in the boats, commanded by Sir Thomas Hardy (then a Lieutenant), at the cutting out of the Mutine, from the harbour of Santa Cruz, and at the battles of St. Vincent, the Nile, landing in Egypt, and capture of the Guillaume Tell, and in many minor conflicts in boats, &c. during the active period of warfare in the Mediterranean, from 1797 to 1800. The last ship Capt. Langford commanded was the Alpheus frigate, on the East India station, and which was paid off in 1816. | Langford, George (I01827)

Devon, son and heir, aged 8 years 3 months and 14 days at his father's death, living 1620, aet. 30, d. on or about 6 Ap, 1649. Memorandum pro. as will 23 Feb. 1649-50, P.C.C. (Pembroke 21). --- Inscription on a Marble Floor Slab (St. Mary's, Woodleigh, Devon): "Here lyeth the body of Francis Fortescu of Wood Esquire who dyed the 6 and was buried the 7 April ano Dom. 1649" --- "Sir John Fortescue, Knight: His Life, Works, and Family History in Two Volumes" Vol. 2, by Thomas Fortescue, Lord Clermont Private Distribution, 1869, page 11: This John Fortescue died April 11, 1587, at Woodley; his son William was seized of Preston, and of Wood also on the death of his mother, who lived after his father. William died at Armington, January 29, 1602, having married: --- first, the daughter of Sir John Fulford, by whom he left no issue; and secondly, Margaret, daughter of John Francis, of Coombe Florey, in Somerset, who survived him. By her he obtained a third of the manor of Coombe Florey. His children were one son, Francis, and four daughters, to each of whom he left by will four hundred pounds. There are three post-mortem inquisitions relating to his estates; one taken at South Tavistock, one at Totness, and a third at Taunton, for the Somerset property. His heir, Francis, born in 1598, married the daughter of Sir John Speccot, of Speccot, in Thornbury, and died April, 1649, leaving by his will 1,000 pounds each to two of his daughters, Anne and Deborah. He was succeeded by his third surviving son, Sir Peter Fortescue, of Wood, created a Baronet in January, 1666-67, married, first, to Bridget, daughter of Sir John Eliot, of Port Eliot, in Cornwall, and secondly, to Amy, daughter of Peter Courtenay, Esq., of St. Michael, and widow of Sir Peter Courtenay, Knight. Leaving no male issue --- his only son, Peter, having died an infant --- the Baronetcy became extinct at his death in 1685. He left three daughters, --- Amy, married to John Fortescue, son of Arthur Fortescue, of Penwarne, in Cornwall, who left no issue; Bridget; and Elizabeth, married, in 1667, to John Turberville, Esq., son of John Turberville, of Golden in Somerset, and had issue a son. Sir Peter, by his will, dated June 29, 1675, leaves his "real estate in trust for such daughter who should marry a Fortescue." From this it may be supposed that his daughter Amy, the wife of John Fortescue, inherited the estate. She, however, had no issue. Thus the families of Preston in the male line, and of Wood in both male and female lines, were extinguished. | Fortescue, Francis (I00361)

| 416 | --- "The Western Antiquary" Vol. 1, 1882, page 13: I have been much interested in the letter of your correspondent "Fess" concerning the monument in St. Andrew's Church to Capt. Francis Drake. The arms 1 and 4 or, a lion rampant, gules, 2 and 3 Sable, are those of Pollexfen. Capt. Francis Drake married Jane Pollexfen at St. Andrew's Church in 1708; he was the son of John Drake of Ivybridge, third son of Sir Francis Drake, created a baronet in 1622, and first cousin to Rev. Bamfylde Drake, Rector of Farway, Devon, my lineal ancester; in his will, dated 1711, in the reign of Queen Anne, he is described as Commander of Her Majesty's Ship Swallow. He left his property to his sister Purdence Saussure. I believe he died sine prolc. Brook House, Kingsbridge, Devon; April 4, 1881. Francis Drake Pearse. The monument "Fess" calls attention to is in memory of Francis Drake, Lieut. of H.M.S. Rye in 1697, Capt. of H.M.S. Swallow, died 26th Dec., 1729, without issue; will proved P.C.C., 6 Auber, bequeathing all his property to his eldest sister, Prudence Saussure, widow, who died aged nearly 90, as it is said, and, I believe, was buried with him in St. Andrew's. Her baptismal register (Buckland Monachorum) dates 15th June, 1655. He married Jane Pollexfen, whose arms are impaled, should have been Qrly. 1 & 4 Arg. or lion ramp. Gu. 2 & 3 az. The new departure from the original blazon is a trifle in Church restoration. He was the son of John Drake, of Ivybridge, by Prudence (Savery?), 3rd son of Sir Francis Drake, the first baronet, nephew of the great Sir Francis. London Wyvern Gules. | Drake, Prudence (I01196)

| 417 | --- "The Western Antiquary" vol. 1, 1882, page 176: Genealogical Hints. (By Wyvern Gules.) Sir, --- The late Earl of St. Germans being somewhat of a genealogist, desired some information respecting the Gedey family, from whom the Eliots derived much property. while turning over some Close Rolls last week, I accidentally discovered that Henry Killegrew (in 1585), partly in reward for the good offices of his servant Ric. Gedey, conveyed to him Tudeford, in St. Germans, then in occupation of Rob. Trelawney. --- "Notes and Gleanings" Vol. 3, W. Pollard and Company, 1890, page 159: Although he [Jasper Hickes, Vicar] had received his previous livings from the king, his extremem Puritanpropensities probably account for his presentations to Landrake, the manor of which had been owned in the early part of the seventeenth century by Richard Gedie, of Trebursye, South Petherwin (father-in-law of Sir John Eliot) who, in his will dated 1627, stated that he had sold it to Hugh Boscawen, John Trefusis, John Rashleigh, and Leonard Treise. --- "The Western Antiquary" Vol. 10, 1891, page 33 South Petherwin. . . . The full parish list, dated "March 6 1641" has 169 names, including "Jacob Rowse vicar," and leading off with "Thomas Blighe Degory King get Antipas Rowse gent," whil it includes John Treise, Nicholas Geddy, Sylvester Geddy, and Richard Geddy, the three last being evidently of the family into which Sir John Eliot had married. --- "The Parochial and Family History of the Deanery of Trigg Minor" Vol. 1 by Sir John Maclean, page 79: Treise. The family of Treise would seem to have been of respectable station in the early part of the seventeenth century, but it is not noticed in the Herald's Visitation of Cornwall of 1620. The first of the name which we find mentioned is William Treise of Castle Milford, in the parish of Tremayne, gentleman, who died May 4, 1622. His eldest son and heir, Leonard Treise, was recorder of Launceston, where he RESIded. He married Radigund, daughter of John Squire, by which marriage he is supposed to have acquired Trevallet in the parish of St. Thomas, where the family was seated for three generations. This lady would appear to have been related to Mr. Geddie of Trebursey, whose daughter married the celebrated patriot Sir John Eliot of Port Eliot, with whom Mr. and Mrs. Treise were on intimate terms. Mr. Treise was a trustee for certain estates under Mr. Geddie's will for the benefit of Sir John Eliot's children; and he, together with his wife and daughter Mary, are mentioned in kindly terms, several times, in Sir John Eliot's letters, published in Forster's Life of Eliot. --- "Launceston, Past and Present: Historical and Desciptive Sketch" by Sir Alfred Robbins, page 132: [Sir John] Eliot had left London for the West on the day of the adjournment, and, as Vice-Admiral of Devon, was soon busily engaged in dealing with the Pirates. After the dissolution he had private affairs to occupy him as well. Charles had issued what were known as "privy seals," directing that those who were able should contribute to the royal exchequer; and the deputies for Cornwall showed their dislike for Eliot "by returning his father-in-law, Mr. Gedie, for an exorbitant amount. There was no pretence of dissatisfaction in the case. Mr. Gedie had served only the preceding year as sheriff of Cornwall, and his estate was still suffering from expenses consequent thereon. Yet he was certified for an amount of which the oppressiveness appears in the fact that it doubled the highest imposed upon someof the richest estates in Yorkshire, Sir Thomas Wentworth [afterwards the Earl of Strafford] being taxed for twenty and Mr. Gedie for forty pounds."* *Forster, Sir John Eliot, vol. i., pp. 271-2. | Gedy, Richard (I00377)

She was a daughter of the second Lord Wharncliffe. --- "The Times" 05 May 1915: The funeral of the Dowager Lady Montagu of Beaulieu will take place to-morrow at Beaulieu, at 3.15 p.m. A memorial service will be held at the same hour, at Christ Church, Down-street, Mayfair. | Stuart-Wortley, Cecily Susan (I01998)

| 419 | --- "Visitation of England and Wales Notes" Vol. 5, 1903, page 59: John Baring of Palace Street, Exeter, and of Larkbear House, co. Devon (son of Dr. Franz Baring, Minister of St. Ansgar's Church at Bremen); born 31 January 1697/8; came to Exeter in 1717; naturalised by Act of Parliament 1723; bur. at St. Leonard's, Exeter, 3 November 1748. --- http://www.exetermemories.co.uk/em/_buildings/larkbeare_house.php The Baring's woollen factory It was let to tenants by its owner, a Mr Lavington. The house, along with 37 acres, was sold in 1737 to John Baring, of the Baring Bank family. Johann Baring was a German Lutheran from a family of wealthy cloth manufacturers who came to Exeter in 1717. In 1723 he was naturalized and married Elizabeth Vowler, the daughter of a tea and coffee wholesaler. Baring's fortune was initially made as a woollen serge manufacturer and merchant, and he built a manufactory on the land next to the house. The house had "large press-shops, packing rooms, linhays, tenter-grounds, and all conveniences on the demesne for finishing woollen cloths." After Baring's death in 1748, his son, also John, purchased and moved into Mount Radford House in 1770, while his other son, Charles, remained in Larkbeare. John Jnr., leased a fulling mill in Exwick that would supply the Larkbeare manufactory with cloth. A third son, Francis Baring moved to London as a merchant, where he purchased materials for his brother's Exeter business and found new markets for their output. It was Francis who founded Baring Brothers, the merchant bank. The manufactory at Larkbeare House survived into the early nineteenth-century but Exeter's woollen trade was no longer pre-eminent and was in fast decline. The Barings vacated the house in 1819 to let it to tenants, and disposed of the house in 1832 to a Mrs Hodge. The house started to deteriorate and in 1889 it was partly demolished when Roberts Road was developed and Holloway Street widened. It would seem that a Mr G Digginnes rescued and gave a "number of carvings in stone from the old Larkbeare House, lately demolished; and these it is hoped may some day be built into some portion of the Museum". (FP 1890) In 1770, John Baring Jnr., established the Devonshire Bank. | Baring, John (I01884)

| 420 | --- "Wells Journal" 18 June 1891, page 2, column 2: Everyone amongst the very numerous friends of Mr. John Gordon Kennedy, British Minister in Chili, and of Mrs. Kennedy, will regret the burning of the British Legation House at Santiago. All their friends and the public in general will equally rejoice at their narrow escape from the fire with their lives. It was an incident of civil war. Mrs. Kennedy is sister to the Duchess of Seroneta, who some years ago, before the death of her father-in-law, was one of the foremost leaders of society in Rome, her then title being Princess Teano. Her husband, now the Duke of Sermoneta, is President of the Royal Geographical Society of Italy. Mr. Kennedy, who had fortunately left his children in England before his departure for Chili, will, of course, receive compensation from the Treasury for the actual pecuniary loss that he has sustained. | Kennedy, John Gordon (I00504)

A congratulatory address was drawn up and sent to Port Eliot to await his lordship's return; but it was thought advisable to postpone any demonstration of rejoicing for a short time, until, in fact, the young lord is christened, when it is intended to present his lordship with an address, and also some other mark of respect. The Earl and Countess arrived at St. Germans last evening, when the station was decorated with flags, and a number of the inhabitants cheered them heartily as they drove from the station. It was remarked that the Countess was looking extremely well. Lord Eliot was born in London on August 30th, and is therefore a month old. The christening ceremony will take place in a few days, when the whole village and Port Eliot will be en fete. The bells of the parish church rang out merry peals during yesterday in honour of the arrival of the noble Earl and Countess, and Mrs. Steed and Mrs. Palmer, occupiers of the farms at Markwell, had bonfires lighted on their ground, which could be seen for a distance of several miles. --- "Royal Cornwall Gazette" 09 September 1887, page 6 --- seen on FindMyPast.co.uk ST.

Mr. G.H. Brenton and Mr. W. Prior gave his lordship a cricket bat and belt, Mr. W.G. Broad a pair of leg guards, and Mr. H. Polgreen match stumps and bails. Some boys of the Endowed Schools subscribed for a match ball. --- "Royal Cornwall Gazette" 08 Sep 1898, page 4: Lord Eliot reached his thirteenth birthday on the 30th August, and in honour of the day the Earl and Countess of St. Germans entertained a large garden party, representative of South Devon and East Cornwall and the naval military establishments of the district at Port Eliot on Tuesday.

| 426 | --- "Western Morning News" 02 Dec 1942, page 6: CORNISHMAN'S WARNING The most famous, or, to speak more correctly, the most fameworth, Cornishman of his day was Sir John Eliot, an ancestor of the Earl of St. Germans. An outstanding figure in that great struggle with the Crown, his speech, made while his friends Valentine and Holles prevented the Speaker of the House of Commons from leaving the chair, has lost none of its force when applied to the present day. Solemnly he uttered the warning that none had "gone about to break Parliaments but that in the end Parliaments had broken them." Today the struggle is with a dictatorship outside the country, but Sir John Eliot's words are still a solemn warning. --- West-country Poets by William HK Wright (as he found it in Worth's "West-Country Garland"), 1896 ON SIR JOHN ELIOT Heer a musitian lyes whose well tuned tongue Was great Apollo's harpe, so sweetly strunge That every cadence was an harmonye.

Charles Cooper Johnson, Quartermaster-General Dept., Bengal Army, son of Sir Henry Allen Johnson, Bart., to Jemima Anne Frances, daughter of the Rev. Chancellor and the late Lady Charlotte Sophia Martin. --- "Western Times" 14 Jan 1860, page 6: HARBERTON. WEDDING FESTIVITIES. --- On Jan. 4th, the village of Harberton was scene of gaiety, in honour of the marriage of Miss Jemima Martin, second daughter of Chancellor Martin, to Captain Johnson, son of Sir Henry Johnson, Bart. The bridal party arrived at the church at eleven o'clock. Arches of flowers and evergreens were erected from the bride's residence to the church. The bride was elegantly dressed in white silk, and lace, accompanied by six bridesmaids dressed in white, trimmed with rose colour. On arriving at the church, Mr. Adams, organist, played a very appropriate piece, after the ceremony he played Mendelssohn's celebrated Wedding March, which gave great satisfaction. Through the day the bells rang merrily, and in the afternoon the school children were regaled with tea and cake. The chancellor also very liberally gave a dinner to all the old folks of the parish, and the rejoicings were general. | Family F00533

| 428 | --- "Western Morning News" 19 Sep 1892, page 5: DEATH OF LADY TAUNTON. We regret to announce that Lady Taunton, who has been lying seriously ill at her town residence, 101, Eaton-place, London, during the past nine weeks, died shortly after midnight on Saturday morning. Lady Taunton was the sixth and youngest daughter of the sixth Earl of Carlisle, and an aunt to the present Earl of Carlisle. She was born in 1823, and in 1852, as Lady Mary Matilda Georgiana Howard, married the first Lord Taunton (better known, perhaps, as the Right Hon. Henry Labouchere), who was Chief Secretary for Ireland in Lord John Russell's Administration of 1846 to 1852, and Chief Secretary of State for the Colonies in the latter part of Lord Palmerston's first ministry of 1855 to 1858. It is a singular coincidence in connection with the life of the late Lady Taunton that her ladyship's brother (then Lord Morpeth), her step-daughter's father-in-law (the Earl of St. Germans), and her husband, the late Lord Taunton, held the chief secretaryship for Ireland, as an office which wrecked the political careers of so many statesmen in the three successive Ministries of Viscount Melbourne, Sir Robert Peel, and Lord John Russell, for the whole of the period (with a slight interregnum), extending from 1835 to 1846. Lady Taunton had no children, but Lord Taunton left three daughters by a former marriage, the youngest of whom is the present Countess of St. Germans. The two elder sisters are married respectively to Mr. E.J. Stanley, M.P. for the Bridgwater division of Somerset and to Major-General Arthur E. A. Ellis, C.S.I., a relative of Lady Howard de Walden and equerry to H.R.H. the Prince of Wales. Lady Taunton's death will put a large number of aristocratic families in mourning, and although she had not in recent years appeared predominently in society the memory of her fine commanding presence and noble and upright character will long be kept green, and her death deplored. By none will Lady Taunton's death be more keenly felt than by the Countess of St. Germans who, from her earliest childhood, up to the time of her marriage to the Earl of St. Germans, in 1881, was the constant and almost sole companion of her stepmother. The countess has also been nursing her stepmother with the tenderest devotion during the past few weeks. Lady Taunton was a frequent and regular visitor at Port Eliot, Lord St. Germans' seat, but the only semi-public occasion in which she took part there, was in 1885, when she stood sponsor to Lord Eliot, the Earl of St. German's elder son and heir. The late Lord Taunton, who was an uncle to Mr. Henry Labouchere, M.P., was created a peer in 1859, but on his death, 1869, without male issue, the barony became extinct. The Earl of St. Germans, who had been in London, with the Countess, for about a fortnight prior to Lady Taunton's death, only returned to Cornwall on Friday in order to entertain the Duke and Duchess of Leeds, who are his guests at Port Eliot. But on receipt of a telegram on Saturday morning announcing that Lady Taunton had passed away, his lordship took the first available train for London, where he arrived on Saturday evening. | Howard, Mary Matilda Georgiana (I01663)

He married first Lady Charlotte Sophia Eliot, youngest daughter of William, second Earl of St. Germans; and secondly Renira Henrietta Aldenburgh, only daughter of Vice-Admiral William Bentinck, who with eight children survive.

Chancellor of the diocese of Exeter, Canon of Exeter, and Vicar of Harberton, Devon. The deceased was an able and conscientious clergyman, and highly esteemed in the diocese of Exeter; but a mistake to the amount of 3s.2d., in a return of some charities accounts, which he had forwarded to the charity committee, so preyed upon his mind, that in a fit of temporary insanity he put an end to his life. --- "The Gentleman's Magazine" Vol 209, 1860, July to December, page 437: Aug 27. At Harberton, Devon, (by his own hand,) the Worshipful George Martin, M.A., Chancellor of the diocese of Exeter, Canon of Exeter, and Vicar of Harberton, Devon. For some weeks the rev. gentleman's friends had observed peculiarities in his conduct, which caused them much uneasiness. His accustomed self-possession and remarkable strength of mind had given way to extreme nervousness and groundless apprehensions, which excited and depressed him by turns. During the last week of his life, particularly, certain circumstances connected with a then pending suit in Chncery, affecting the charities of the village of Harberton; a dispute in the parish itself, with regard to a proposition for re-seating the church; and a business transaction, having reference to the repair of Rockford-house, which he had presented to the new incumbent of Harberton Ford Church, preyed upon his mind. So strange was his behaviour, and so evident the aberration of the rev. gentleman's intellect, that the attention of the family medical man, Mr. Owen, of Totnes, was directed to the circumstances by a friend. On Sunday morning the Chancellor preached in the parish church, and in the afternoon he read prayers, the Rev. Mr. Greenhill, the curate, preaching the sermon. During the day he also baptized a child. His manner in the pulpit in the morning, and in the desk in the afternoon, attracted the attention of the congregation. His eye was seen to wander fitfully about the building, and his hands were constantly twitching, evincing a condition of strong nervous excitement. From the close of the afternoon's service until a late hour in the evening, Mrs. Martin and Mr. T.C. Kellock, of Totnes, who was his legal friend, were with him; and he then expressed his fear that his pecuniary affairs were going wrong, and his determination to reduce his household expenditure. For these apprehensions there was not the least foundation. He would not, however, allow himself to be convinced of this, nor of the groundlessness of other fears which troubled his mind. During the night he slept uneasily, and on Monday morning complained of a spasmodic pain through the heart. His conduct whilst dressing greatly alarmed Mrd. Martin, who remained as near him as he would allow. But, notwithstanding every precaution, the unfortunate gentleman seized an opportunity when Mrs. Martin was in another part of the room, and cut his throat in two places. He lingered about an hour, but, though promptly attended, no medical aid could save his life. --- Burial Register Note: Sucide at 5.30. | Martin, Reverend George (I00580)

He dedicated his "Milk for Babies" (1646) to Lady Honoria, and the appended four sermons to his four charges. --- "Catechisms Written for Mothers, Schoolmistresses, and Children, 1575-1750" edited by Paula McQuade et al, 2008, page 12: "To His much Honoured Patronesse, the Lady Honoria Norton . . ." (1646) Robert Abbot (fl. c. 1589-1652) Robert Abbot was a Protestant minister and author. . . . In 1643, Abbot left Cranbrook and moved to the living of Southwick, Hampshire, under the patronage of Lady Honoria Norton . . . This dedicatory epistle, the first of two which preface "Milk for Babes", underscores the importance of upper-class women to the production and dissemination of mother-directed catechisms in seventeenth-century England. Lady Honoria Norton (d. 1648) was the wife of Sir Daniel Norton (1568-1636) of Southwick, Hampshire. The Nortons were 'leading members of the county's Calvinist gentry'' Lady Norton's son, Richard Norton, was a protege of Oliver Cromwell. Honoria Norton seems to have exercised considerable authority within her family; Richard's Royalist opponents decried 'the dominance of his mother'. In this epistle, Abbot describes Lady Norton's influence over his catechism's composition, crediting his stay in Norton's household, where he provided catechetical lessons to children and servants, as 'the main cause' of his writing. '[I]f it prove acceptable to Christ's Church'. he write, 'you (Madam) shall have the thanks, and credit, under whose wings it hath found leisure to be born' (AA2). Abbot concludes the epistle by urging Lady Norton to use his published catechism to instruct her grandchildren: 'Be . . . like Timothy his mother and grand-mother (who trained him from a childe in the Scriptures) to train them up in undoubted principles . . . and they will . . . thank God that they had such a grand-mother' (AA3v). | White, Honor (I00975)

| 445 | --- "York Herald" 09 May 1868, page 7: We record with sorrow the death of the Right Honorable Caroline Dowager Lady Wenlock, widow of the late Paul Beilby Lawley Thompson, first Lord Wenlock, of Escrick Park, in this county, and of Bourton Cottage, in the county of Salop. The deceased lady was born in October, 1792; youngest daughter of Richard Aldworth neville, second Lord Braybrooke, of Audley End, in Essex, whose wife was Catherine, youngest daughter of the Right Honorable George Grenville, and sister to George, first Marquis of Buckingham, and William Lord Grenville. Her ladyship was married in 1817 to the late Lord Wenlock, then Paul Beilby Lawley, Esq., who, on the death of his uncle, assumed the name of Thompson, and came to the Escrick estate in 1820. They had issue five children, all of whom survive -- Beilby Richard, the present Lord Wenlock (married in 1846, to the Lady Elizabeth Grosvenor, third daughter of the Marquis of Westminster), Captain the Honorable Robert Neville Lawley (married in 1852, to Georgiana, daughter of the late Lord Edward Somerset), the Honorable and Rev. Stephen Willoughby Lawley, rector of Escrick, the Honorable Francis Charles Lawley, and the Honorable Jane, the wife of the Right Honorable James Stuart Wortley. Lady Wenlock had been in failing health for several months, and died gently and peacefully on Saturday morning last, at her house in Bearkeley Square, surrounded by all her children except Capt. Lawley, whose recent accident confined him to his home in Yorkshire. Few persons in high position have exerted a greater influence than the deceased lady -- few have been more sincerely or more generally beloved. Born of high lineage, she dignified her position by a life of the most unobtrusive charity, by the most active and continuous benevolence, and by the readiest sympathy which all might command. In her own house, amid the hospitalities she much loved to dispense, she shone with a peculiar charm and refinement, and as one of the wise and excellent ones of the earth she will be greatly missed and mourned, especially by the poor. Her ladyship was long honoured and revered by all clases in this city, where she had ever taken an active interest in all the charitites. The County Hospital was always the special object of her solicitude, and many of our fellow-citizens will remember how much it owes to her activity in originating and bringing to so successful an issue the great bazaar of 1829. In her own villages, where there remain so many lasting records of her untiring exertions for the welfare of her people, she will not soon be forgotten; and when, today, her mortal remains are borne to the vault, to lie under the monumental chapel which she built in Escrick church, it will be a saddening thought to many that, this day, sixteen years ago, the great shadow of her life -- the sorrow of widowhood -- fell on her, in teh death of her much-loved lord, at whose side she now again reposes. --- "Oh, blest are they who live and die like these, Loved with such love, and with such sorrow mourned." --- "York Herald" 16 May 1868, page 9: FUNERAL OF THE DOWAGER LADY WENLOCK The funeral of the late Lady Wenlock took place at Escrick on Saturday last, amidst the heartfelt sorrow of all who were present, and who had known her during a lifetime of piety, benevolence, and charity. Long and deservedly will her memory be cherished, not only by the members of her own family, but also by the numerous tenanty, tradesmen, and labourers connected with the estate. The remains of her ladyship were brought from the Metropolis to Escrick, in the care of Mr. Henry Daniel Clarke, of Desborough House, Westbourne Green, Paddington, London, the body being enclosed in a shell, lead coffin, and an outer coffin of oak, which was covered with fine black cloth, and studded with silver gilt nails, formed in panels. On the silver breastplate was the following engraved inscription:--- "Caroline, Dowager Lady Wenlock, born October, 1792, died May 2, 1868, aged 75." The hour fixed for the funeral to take place was eleven o'clock on Saturday forenoon, and only on the occasion of the funeral of the late Lord Wenlock has the village presented so melancholy an aspect. The indications of sorrow were general, whether as regards the habiliments of mourning worn by the people themselves, or having reference to the curcumstance that every house exhibited a deserved mark of respect towards the deceased lady by either closing the shutters or drawing down blinds. At the hour just inidcated the coffin was taken out of the hall where she and the late Lord had spent a not inconsiderable portion of their lives, to the entrance to Escrick Park, where the tenantry, several tradesmen from York, and the church choir were in waiting. The coffin rested on a bier, which was carried by twelve bearers, and the large bell of the beautiful church at Escrick was tolled at half minute intervals. . . . Although Escrick Park is nearly a mile from the church, the male portion of the chief mourners and others in the procession walked with their heads uncovered, and their example was followed by others on the route of the procession. The strongest indications of grif were depicted on every countenance, and the singing of the choir produced a powerful and solemnising effect. The church was reached in about half an hour from the time of starting, and at the entrance to the sacred edifice the corpse was met by the Rev. W.F. Neville, Prebendary of Wells and vicar of Butleigh, Somerset, the Rev. J.R. Farros, vicar of Riccall, and the Rev. O.A. Medd, curate of Escrisk. The Rev. W.F. Neville read the opening sentences in the burial service, and after the coffin had been taken into the chancel, a wreath of flowers and evergreens was placed upon it. The pulpit, the lectern, the reading desk, and the communion table were covered with black cloth, with a border of white fringe. The church was speedily filled by those who composed the procession and the spectators, and, whilst they were being seated, Mr. Tuke, the organist, played the Dead March in Samson. The Rev. W.F. Neville afterwards proceeded with the service, and at its conclusion the coffin was borne outside the church. During the time of the removal of the body to its final resting place, Mr. Tuke played the Dead March in Saul. The remains of her Ladyship were deposited in a vault under the monumental chapel which she built in Escrick church, there to repose by the side of her much-loved Lord until the time of the consummation of all things. The remainder of the service having been read, the mourners -- and in reality every one present appearing in that capacity -- took their last "long lingering look" at that which contained the frail tabernacle of clay of one whose deeds of generosity and benevolence will be long registerd on the scroll of fame. The assembly slowly dispersed to several homes, and mufffled peal was rung on the bells of the church. | Neville, Caroline (I01801)

| 450 | --- "Yorkshire Post and Leeds Intelligencer" 21 Nov 1914, page 6: OFFICERS WHO HAVE FALLEN The Dowager Duchess of Abercorn states that a German officer has written to inform her that her son, Capt. Lord John Hamilton, of the Irish Guards, was killed on November 9, while leading a charge. The War Office have no confirmation of his death. Lord John Hamilton is the second surviving son of the second Duke of Abercorn, and brother of the present Duke. He was born in 1883, and was educated at Wellington College. He received his captaincy in the Irish Guards in 1909, and in 1913 became captain of the Reserve Battalion. In the latter year he was appointed Deputy Master of His Majesty's Household. In December, 1910, he unsuccessfully contested the North Tyrone Division in the Conservative interest. Captain Archibald Edward Kennedy, the eldest son of the late Sir John Gordon Kennedy, of His Majesty's Diplomatic Service, and of Lady Kennedy, lost his life at Le Cateau, but his name has not yet appeared in the official list of casulties. He joined the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders in 1900, and was with his regiment in India and South Africa. --- "Hastings and St. Leonards Observer" 21 Nov 1914, page 7, column 2: CASUALTIES & INTERVIEWS LADY KENNEDY'S SON KILLED It is announced that Captain Archibald Edward Kennedy, of the 2nd Battalion Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, has been killed in the trenches at Le Cateau. He was the eldest son of the late Sir John G. Kennedy, K.C.M.G., and Lady Kennedy (who till recently RESIded at Holmhurst, St. Helen's Park). He was born in 1878, and educated at Eton and Oriel College, Oxford. He joined the Argyle and Sutherland Highlanders in 1900, and was with his regiment in India and South Africa. He qualified in a course of instruction at the London School of Economics, and was gazetted Captain in July, 1912. He was officially reported missing after the Battle of Cambrai-Le Cateau, but information has now been received that he was killed in the last burst of firing before the few survivors of his company were surrounded by the enemy on the evening of August 26th. A memorial service will be held at St. Peter's, Cranley-gardens, at 11.30, to-day (Saturday). | Kennedy, Archibald Edward (I00501)

| 451 | --- (Daily Telegraph & Courier, London, 13 Jan 1899, page 4): THE LATE LADY LOUISA FORTESCUE The slight notice evoked by the death of the distinguished and highly-gifted lady whose name heads this column is not only an illustration of the truth of Rip Van Winkle's aphorism, "How soon we are forgot!" but would also have moved that great lover of Buckinghamshire, the Earl of Beaconsfield, to unlimited scorn. The Earl always spoke in eulogistic terms of the garden parties at Dropmore, near Maidenhead, over which the Hon. George Fortescue and his wife (who has just passed away) pRESIded. Lady Louisa Fortescue, nee Lady Louisa Ryder, was born in 1813, the youngest daughter of the second Baron and first Earl of Harrowby, who was married in 1795 to Lady Susan Leveson-Gower, daughter of the first Marquis of Stafford. From this marriage there sprang a large familty, of which but one [sic] survivor is now left, Lady Mary Saurin, who was born in 1801. She married in 1828 Admiral Edward Saurin, R.N., whom his widow, still in the enjoyment of all her faculties, has already survived by twenty-one years, and seems to possess as good a chance of becoming a centenarian in 1901 as anyone of her age now drawing the breath of life. Lady Susan Ryder, another sister of Lady Mary Saurin and Lady Louisa Fortescue, was married to the second Earl Fortescue; another (Lady Georgiana Ryder) was married to John, second Lord Wharncliffe, and was the mother of the present Earl of Wharncliffe; another (Lady Harriet Ryder) married the Rev. Lord Charles Hervey, D.D.; while the youngest (Lady Louisa Ryder) married in 1833 the Hon. George Fortescue, one of the most agreeable and distinguished-looking men of his day, to whom Dropmore descended after the death of Lord and Lady Grenville. | Ryder, Louisa Elizabeth (I01545)

Her deputy-mother --- to whose care she and her eldest sister, Felicia, were urgently confided by their young mother, Lady Susan Lygon, on her death-bed --- was a Miss Marks, the elder and more robust sister of my own always beloved godmother, Susanna Marks. Thus we children became of interest to one of the loveliest girls ever created, and, lover of beauty as I was, each time that we met, whether she came to see my mother, whom she evidently valued very highly, or we 'spent the day' at Grosvenor Place, or joined the children invited to her parties, each occasion was like a star in my memory. It was always there, shining, in the dull sky of my London life. . . . [pages 186-8] There were other concerts at which I played. And once again I found my self in salons where artists were always welcome. But the event of 1863 --- in my case an event which, by a concatenation of incidents, led to the shunting of my life into other channels --- was my introduction by our friend of life, Lady Raglan (formerly Lady Georgiana Lygon), to the patron of music and musicians, the Earl of Dudley. The beautiful creature was always, in her unselfish life, thinking of others. She never left us long without finding out how we fared, and doing her utmost to help and further our interests. I do not remember which year it was that she married the son of the celebrated Lord Raglan, but I well recollect the array of wedding-presents --- we were 'spending the day' in Grosvenor Place, as so often before--- and the gratification it was to see our modest offerings among the diamonds and the gold, also, a few days later, the marriage in a Belgravian church of extremest High Church tendencies. I can see her now, coming down the church on her bridegroom's arm, in a heavy lace veil thrown back over as heavy a wreath of real orange-blossoms, the old lace, and thick silk of her rich, plain gown --- chimed in ill with the unusual pallor of her ordinarily peach-like complexion. Her dark-blue eyes looked very blue, her dark hair very dark, and there was a sadness in her rare, sweet smile as she noticed her special friends as she left the church on her husband's arm, which, to me, boded ill. I felt singularly depressed for some time after --- one of those horrible whispers which meant death had unnerved me as that lovely, pale bride went by . . . She died, all too young, in the first fullness of rich, beautiful yought, as her mother, Lady Susan Lygon, and her sister, Lady Felicia Cavendish, had died before her. But before her premature translation, she had a time of healthy, happy wife and motherhood. In the early days of her married life she suggested to my mother that a special introduction from herself to Lord Dudley might help me on. | Lygon, Georgiana (I00570)

It is remarkable that this large and ancient edifice, thought once the Cathedral church of the Cornish diocese, is without a chancel. This neglect of its architect, or it may be the work of later renovators, has now been remedied, at least temporarily. Miss Eliot, elder daughter of Colonel the Hon. C.G.C. Eliot, having designed a beautiful screen, the eastern part of the church is separated by it, and forms an unique and effectual chancel. The screen, which is a work of artistic skill, was placed in position by the Countess of St. Germans and the lady visitors at Port Eliot. Holy Communion was celebrated at half-past eleven service; those held during the afternoon and evening were fully choral. Prayers were intoned by the Rev. E. Buck, curate-in-charge, the lessons being read by the Revs. D. Jenkins and H.N. Wheeler. Two appropriate and eloquent sermons were preached, and the one in the afternoon by the Rev. Sylvanus Gregory, that in the evening by the Rev. Joseph Hammond, vicar of St. Austell. A public tea, partaken of during the interval between the afternoon and evening services, was largely attened, and the arduous efforts of Mr. Buck and his co-helpers in the parish met with well-earned success. Collections made on behalf of the Organ Restoration Fund amounted to over ten pounds.---- W.M.N., September 13, 1889. --- "Western Morning News" 28 Nov 1895, page 5: A very successful concert was given in St. Germans Townhall last evening, in connection with the Mutual Improvement Society. The programme opened with a brilliantly executed piano solo, Handel's gavotte, by the Hon. Mrs. Eliot, who was also heard to advantage in an instrumental trio for piano, violin and violoncello, the two latter instruments being played most skillfully by Miss Eliot and Miss Evelyn Eliot respectively. An artistically rendered solo by Miss E. Eliot on the 'cello was greatly enjoyed. Miss A. May sang with good effect, as did also Miss Evelyn Warren, and both were encored. They also gave a duet with great taste and expression. Mr. W.G. Broad also contributed to the evening's enjoyment. There was only a fair attendance. --- "Grantham Journal" 24 April 1909, page 2: A Marriage has been arranged, and will shortly take place, between Stephen Ormston Eaton, of Tolethorpe Hall, Rutland, and Blanche Elizabeth Eliot, elder daughter of the late Colonel the Hon.

She was widow of Mr. Stephen Ormston Eaton, who died in May, 1911, at Tolethorpe Hall, and who was eldest son of Mr. Charles Ormston Eaton, of Tolethorpe Hall, one of the founders of Messrs.

She was a daughter of Colonel the Hon. Charles G. Eliot, a son of the third Earl of St. Germans and a sister of the present Earl. Mr. S. Ormston Eaton's second wife, she had been married only a few years when he died quite unexpectedly. Whilst living at Tolethorpe she was noted for her kind generosity, and was highly esteemed.

Wellesley Somerset (son), Mr. and Mrs. Raglan Somerset, and the Master of Belhaven. --- "Memories of Three Reigns" by Lady Ethel Raglan, 1928, page 93-8: What fun we used to have at Port Eliot, where we had our own large suite of nurseries in which to play! I always remember the occasions when my grandfather gave one of his big dinner parties. We would creep down the back staircase to visit Mrs. Davis, the housekeeper; and once safely arrived in her comfortable sanctum, we had our secret suppers, for she would proceed to feed us with delicious roast turkey (stuffed from a special recipe of the cook, Mrs. Vaughan), succulent brown sausages, followed by pink-topped ices, hot-house grapes, and almonds and raisins! . . . All of my grandfather's old servants were devoted to us. Another of my special treats was to be allowed to visit the head butler, Mr. Bailey, in his pantry, and to watch him cleaning the plate. One day, when I was sitting there, perched on a high stool, watching him perform this task, I said to him: "What do you clean it with?" He replied--- "Elbow grease, Miss!" This made me very curious, the "commodity" being at that time unknown to me, and wishing to ascertain what it was, I enquired naively: "And were do you get that from?" The old butler smiled at this innocent remark of mine, and tapped his elbows with a significant gesture. . . . In my grandfather's time it was customary for servants to rise at a much earlier hour in the morning than they do now. At Port Eliot, the head housemaid, Sarah [Lavers], used to get up at five-thirty every day, her reason for doing this being, to use her own expression, that the work would not otherwise be done. She was the most cheery person, and I never remember seeing her look depressed. It was the habit them to keep copper kettles in bedrooms, and nobody could clean these, or the brass fire-irons, as Sarah could. She could make them shine like mirrors, and I believe used to remove any stains by the application of a little lemon juice. I remember on one occasion when I contracted some childish ailment and was ordered away to the seaside to recuperate, that Sarah was chosen to accompany and take charge of me, and so off we went together to Downderry. She proved to be the most delightful companion and, most important achievement in my eyes, a champion builder of sand castles! My grandfather's cook, Mrs. Vaughan, was a great character. She had been with the family for so many years that she had grown stout in their service and identified herself entirely with their interests; and she possessed a marvellous memory, to the extent of even recollecting the favourite dish of each guest who had every stayed a night in the house! Another characteristic of hers was her quint sense of humour. On one occasion when the domestic staff at Port Eliot were on the point of migrating for the season to the town house in Dover Street, they received the news that the old lady who acted as lodge-keeper had been taken ill and had suddenly died; and when the tidings were broken to Mrs. Vaughan, she said: "I haven't got time to cry now. I must keep my cry until I arrive in London." Years ago, servants took a pride in doing their tasks thoroughly. I recollect one day, when I was staying with my grandfather, that I went into the dining-room and found the butler busily occupied in taking intricate measurements on the table cloth, with a yard measure. After watching him in astonishment for few seconds I said: "What are you doing?" "Measuring the distance between the knives and forks, Missy, so that they shall be quite exact!" was his surprising explanation. . . . There was a very large staff at Port Eliot. The indoor servants included the butler, under butler, valet, two footmen, an odd man and a hall boy. There was the cook, and under her were two kitchen maids and a scullery maid. In addition there were three housemaids, two stillroom maids, two laundry maids and, to supervise them all, Mrs. Davis, the housekeeper, who was not really a married woman, but was given the courtesy title of Mrs. as were all head women-servants in those days. --- "Memories of Three Reigns" by Lady Ethel Raglan, 1928, page 104-5: I always remember what a great feature was made of the breakfasts at my grandfather's house parties at Port Eliot, and of the numerous courses that succeeded each other. There would be a choice of fish, fried eggs and crisp bacon, a variety of egg dishes, omelettes and sizzling sausages and bacon. During the shooting parties, hot game and grilled pheasants always appeared on the breakfast menu but were served of course without any vegetables. On a side table was always to be found a choice of cold viands; delicious home-smoked hams, pressed meats, on of the large raised pies for which Mrs. Vaughan (the cook) was justly famous, consisting of cold game and galantine, with aspic jelly. The guests drank either tea or coffee, and there were the invariable accompaniments of home-made rolls, piping hot, and stillroom preserves of apple and quince jelly, and always piled bowls of rich Cornish cream. The men usually finished with a fruit course of grapes or hothouse peaches and nectarines. And that was how we breakfasted in my young days, before super-tax had eaten up our bank balances, or income tax demands had spoiled our digestions! --- "Eggs in Cookery" edited by Richard Hosking, 2006, page 176: . . . country house breakfasts, like this one of 1870 recalled by Lady Raglan, granddaughter of the Earl of St. Germans, in "Memories of Three Reigns": 'I always remember what a great feature was made of the breakfasts at my grandfather's house parties at Port Eliot, and of the numerous courses that succeeded each other.

'We had our own large suite of nerseries in which to play,' wrote one of the earl's granddaughters, from which, when there were big evening dinners, the children would 'creep down the back staircase' to be fed with sausages, turkey, ice-cream, and nuts in the 'comfortable sanctum' of the housekeeper. The earl himself 'we children all loved,' remembering that their peculiar delight 'as a small child was to sit on his knee and inspect his watch, which could open and shut, and chief novelty of all in my eyes, could chime!' On these visits they would be joined by multiple cousins, and together 'we used to love to listen to stories about the past of the family:' stories which frame the opening of this granddaughter's own life. | Ponsonby, Ethel Jemima (I01137)

It is but a few years ago that a new and costly church was erected at Madresfield. The new building has already exhibited signs of dilapidation, the site on which it stands being damp and otherwise objectionable. A new church is to be erected, the windows and other portions of the present structure being made available in the new church. Mr Preedy is the architect. The expense will be borne by the Beauchamp family. A temporary church has been erected for the performance of Divine service while the work is going on. --- "Birmingham Daily Gazette" 28 Oct 1867, page 6: . . . The present Earl is rebuilding the house, but retaining the old hall, gallery, and some other features. As to the church, it was only so recently as 1852 that the old building (a late Norman and early English structure), being dilapidated, was destroyed, and a new one erected by the late Earl, from designs by Pugin the younger. This was a handsome specimen of the Decorated style, but it was doomed to a very brief existence; its site was damp and otherwise objectionable, and the building it was thought showed signs of weakness; so last year another new one, also in the Decorated style, was projected, at a distance of some two or three hundred yards from the old one, and this is so far advanced towards completion as to be shortly ready for consecration. The cost will be entirely defrayed by Earl Beauchamp.

Sons Sergei, Nikolai and Fyodor, having a father and an uncle - naval officers and, having heard their stories, especially the last one, about the blockade of the Dutch coast, which he held as part of the command of the ship "Severny" and a number of others, could not help but follow their ancestors and that's all three completed their studies at the Naval Cadet Corps, becoming officers and entering active service in the navy. The eldest son Nikolai Petrovich Denisiev, born in 1823, graduated from the Naval Corps in 1844 and entered active service. In 1850 - lieutenant, retired - lieutenant commander. Together with other heirs, he owned the village of Bukharino in the Chukhloma district and the village of Serkovo in the Kostroma district. In 1858, after the division of the estate, we find in its "single possession" the village of Chakhlovo with the villages of Burmachkino and Gorki. In Burmachka, located on the Kuban River, on the right side of the post road from Kostroma to Nerekhta, there was a manor, which was only 9 versts from the provincial town. Not far from the estate is a rather large (about forty male souls lived in twenty yards) household village Chakhlovo. The village of Gorki, not inferior in the number of souls to a village, lay on the other side of the road. The presence of the Kuban river and the proximity to the provincial town were the indisputable conveniences of the estate. Its owner, Nikolai Petrovich Denisyev, lived there with his wife Varvara Alexandrovna, nee Perfilieva, and through this marriage, concluded after 1854, the Denisievs became related with two noble families, the Perfilievs and Bartenevs375. Varvara Alexandrovna is the daughter of Olga Nikolaevna, nee Barteneva and Alexander Andreevich Perfiliev. Many Bartenevs have proven themselves well in various fields, as for military service, 23 carriers of this surname were famous sailors, one of them being rear admiral and one vice admiral. There were no less naval officers among the Perfilievs. Nikolai Petrovich and Varvara Aleksandrovna Denisievs had been married for more than 20 years, however, he was overshadowed by his wife's illness, and her ailments were of such a nature that already in 1882, guardianship was established over her and her property. The property of Varvara Alexandrovna consisted in the village of Molokovo in the Galich district with villages donated to her by her mother in 1854. The heirs of the Denisyevs' estate were their children Anna and Nikolai. The middle son of Yulia Aleksandrovna and Peter Alekseevich Denisiev, Fedor Petrovich Denisiev (February 5, 1825 - March 16, 1875) also followed the path of his grandfather and father. He graduated from the Naval Corps, served in the Navy, in 1850 - a lieutenant, retired captain of the 1st rank of the Guards crew. He was married to Nadezhda Petrovna (born January 19, 1844), whose origin is unknown to us. In 1850 Fyodor Petrovich "together with brothers and sisters" owned the village of Bukharino in the Kostroma province, which was departed by Denisiev in 1833 from Elizaveta Mikhailovna Shipova. However, according to the section of 1857 between brothers and sisters, Fyodor Petrovich became the sole owner of the village of Bukharino. He immediately laid it down in the board of trustees, with which he could settle only at the end of the 1860s. Grigorov A.A. Without Kostroma ... - P. 41. Printed and handwritten rarities of Kostroma 267 Fyodor Petrovich and Nadezhda Petrovna Denisievs died on the same day - March 16, 1875, which is rather unusual and allows us to think that some tragic incident took place here. They were buried together, in St. Petersburg, at the cemetery of the Novodevichy Convent376. Of their heirs, only one son, Sergei Fedorovich Denisiev, is known - a mining engineer, and from documents for 1903 it is clear that by that time he had the rank of collegiate assessor and lived in St. Petersburg, in a house on the Palace Embankment. We have no information about the presence and composition of his family. Little is known about the third son of Yulia Aleksandrovna and Peter Alekseevich Denisiev, Sergei Petrovich Denisiev, who was born in 1827. Following family tradition, he trained as an Unknown Artist. naval affairs and in documents of 1850 Portrait of Yu.A. Denisieva, was listed as a midshipman. In 1845, he owned the nee Novikova. the village of Bukharino, Chukhloma district, Oil on canvas. 62x49. KMZ and in 1854 the village of Serkovo, Kostroma district, both together with brothers and sisters. There is no information about his wife and children, except that his son Nikolai Sergeevich was a naval captain and cavalier in 1857377. About the fourth son, Alexander Petrovich, born in 1822, no information could be found. If men themselves "forge" their biographies, then the fate of women depends entirely on their husbands. The wife not only takes the spouse's surname, but changes her place of residence, settles in her husband's house, adopts the traditions of his family, changing her born. So it happened with the Denisiev sisters, except for one unmarried Elizabeth, while others, Nastasya, Varvara and Anna, got married at one time, and some of them more than once. Nastasya Petrovna Denisyeva (1830-1900) married the provincial secretary Dmitry Petrovich Mamaev, who owned the village of Vasilievskoye in the Chukhloma district and the Tatkovo estate in the Soligalichsky district of the Kostroma province. From this marriage were born sons Valentin and Peter, daughters Julia and Elizabeth. All the names of the children were given in honor of the closest and loved ones. According to P. P. Rezepin, Nadezhda Petrovna Denisyeva died on June 20, 1891. See A. A. Grigorov Without Kostroma ... - P. 41. - Approx. ed.

This naïve and charming provincial portrait is reputed through provenance to represent two young children from the Courtenay family, a large and distinguished West Country family of great antiquity.[1] However, there is an absence of any coat of arms to aid a precise identification of these two children which is problematic as the Courtenays were a large, diffuse family with extensive properties throughout Devon, Cornwall and Ireland. In addition, much of this property was dispersed through marriage to other branches of the family based in Devon, Cornwall and Ireland, in particular amongst the Mohuns, Arundells, Tretherffes, and Trelawnys, and their descendants. [2] [3] Therefore, the identification of the two young sitters becomes an educated guess based on comparison of all the dates of births of every branch of the Courtenay family. Two members of the family appear to fit the date and age inscribed on the painting, that is, Anne Courtenay (b.1630 - ?) and her sister Susan (b.1632 - ?). Their parents were Peter Courtenay of Penkevell, Cornwall (b. 1584 - ?) and Amye Trehane. Anne Courtenay married first in 1650, Sir Peter Courtenay of Trethurfe, Cornwall and secondly, Sir Peter Fortescue of Wood, Devon. Our double portrait of the children has an unusual composition as they are painted half-length within double faux stone ovals. Both children are dressed in similar costumes consisting of matching red bodices and skirts with white linen aprons, which in the case of the baby is edged in needlepoint lace. Their flat collars are also decorated with a combination of cutwork and needlepoint lace, while the cuffs are finished in very fine needlepoint lace. There are subtle differences in the costumes, for example, while both children wear little caps trimmed with lace that fits their heads snugly, the baby also wears a more ornate lace trimmed headdress over this cap and pretty black bows on her sleeves whilst her elder sibling’s costume is richly decorated with gold braiding. The elder child holds a hornbook [4] and enough of the text is legible for its edifying nature to be understood. When it came to the education of children during the seventeenth century, religion occupied a dominate place in the upbringing of righteous and well-educated children. However, it would be unusual for a three-year-old child to possess the ability to read and so this imagery most probably alludes to their parents’ educational ideals and their intention to educate and raise their children as god-fearing and righteous citizens.

| 567 | --- Obituary in "Northampton Mercury" 02 Apr 1909, page 9: DEATH OF SIR WILLIAM HUMPHERY Great Brinton's Friend. We regret to announce the death of Sir William Henry Humphery, K.C.B., of the Cottage, Brignton, which occurred at his London residence, 23, Bruton-street, on Wednesday, as the result of pneumonia, following upon influenza. The deceased Baronet had beenn in such indifferent health for some time that the sad news will come as no surprise, but at the same time the loss of so kinly natured a getleman will be felt by his friends, and, perhaps to an even great extent, bu the villagers of Great Brington, by whom he was much liked. Sir William was a Hampshire man, and spent the best part of his life in that county. His residence in Northamptonshire was spent almost in retirement so far as public work was concerned, but he performed many quite acts of philanthropy, and in the village showed constant consideration for the interests of the people about him. For some years he and Lady Humphery gave a new year's treat to the inhabitants of Brignton, and these little gatherings, which Sir William and Lady Humphery and other leading RESIdents usually attended, were greatly enjoyed. Last January the treat was postponed on account of the state of Sir William's health, but he expressed the hope that before long he would be so far recovered that the party would be possible. Sir William was born on March 25, 1827, and thus celebrated his 82nd birthday only last Thursday. He was the son of Alderman John Humphery, a member of Parliament for Southwark, and Lord Mayor of London in 1842-3. He was educated at Winchester and Wadham College, Oxford, and though a keen student, he was a good athlete and excelled as an oarsman. At Winchester he was captain of the school football team, and at Oxford he became captain of his boat, leaving not before he was head of the river. Among his victories were the winning of the Henley Grand Challenge Cup, the Wyfold Cup, and the Ladies' Cup. One of his greatest interest was Volunteering. He joined in 1860, and for many years from 1863 was commandant of the 1st V.B. Hants Regiment, subsequently becoming Brigadier General of the Portsmouth Volumnteer Infantry Brigade. He possessed the Victoria Decoration. From 1863 to 1867 Sir William sat in Parliament as the Conservative member for Andover, and in 1868 he was created a baronet. Among other honours that came to him later were his appointment to be High Sheriff of Hampshire in 1873, to be C.B. (1887), and in 1892 to be K.C.B. Sir William made the law his profession and in 1852 was called to the Bar at the Inner Temple. He was twice married, his first wife dying in 1897. The marriage with his second wife, who survives him, took place in 1898. Lady Humphery is a duaghter of the late Baron Alderson and a sister-in-law of the late Marquis of Salisbury. There was no issue of either marriage. --- Funeral Description in "Northampton Mercury" 09 Apr 1909, page 3: SIR WILLIAM HUMPHERY Funeral at Brington. In the peaceful old village of Great Brington, where his many kindnesses had made him beloved, the mortal remains of Sir William Henry Humphery, K.C.B., were on Saturday committed to the earth. The coffin was brought down from London by the 10.10 from Euston, and was conveyed from Nothampton to the village church by hearse. Of the Guild of St. Alban pattern, it bore the inscription: In Memoriam. Sir William Henry Humphery, Died 31st March, 1909. The funeral was attended by distinguished relatives and friends, and a great number of sorrowing villagers, who were present to show a last mark of respect. The interment took place in a newly-dug grave, near the east gate of the churchyard, and nor far from the tombs of the late Countess Spencer and the late Viscountess Althorp.

The hymn "On the Resurrection Morning" was sung, followed by the Ninetieth Psalm. As the coffin was borne to the grave, by a number of villagers and cut-door servants, the organist, Mr. E.C.

The company began to arrive a quarter before ten, and continued to set down till near twelve. Notwithstanding the rapid succession of carriages, only one accident occurred, and that to the Marchioness Cornwallis, who fell from the steps of her carriage, owing to an unexpected motion of her horses. She was severely bruised on her side, and was taken up in a state of insensibility by the Marquis and others.

THE LATE MARCHIONESS CORNWALLIS.--- The remains of this much-beloved lady were deposited in the family vault at Culford Church, near Bury St. Edmund's, on Wednesday, the 11th inst. The funeral, by her Ladyship's express desire, was strictly private, being attended only by the nearest relatives of the deceased. The body was brought to Bury on the preceding evening, and remained at the Angel Inn for the night. The family arrived by special train at a quarter before twelve in the morning, having left London at nine, and immediately proceeded to Culford, where the procession was formed at the Hall farm, and moved on foot, the corpse born by 12 men, to the Church. The mourners were Lord and Lady Braybrooke, and the Hon. Messrs. and Misses Neville; the Earl and Countess St. Germans, and the Hon. Mr. Eliot; Mr. and Lady Mary Ross, Messrs. and Miss Jemima Ross, and Mr. and Mrs. Whatman; Lady Louisa and Lady Elizabeth Cornwallis. The service was performed by the Rev. J. Anderson, late of Brighton; the Rev. F. Cheere, Rector of Ingham, and the Rev. W. Pridden, Rector of West Stow, being also in attendance. Many of the old servants and inhabitants of the surrounding villages, who experienced the fostering care of her ladyship and the family were present, and several persons from Bury; and much feeling of regret and sad remembrance of the past was evinced on the occasion. The family immediately afterwards returned to town. An impressive sermon on the event was preached at Culford Church on Sunday last, by the Rev. E. Hogg, Rector of Fornham, upon the 3rd ch. of Ecclesiastics, ver. 15. -- Bury Post. --- "The Gentleman's Magazine" Volume 35, January 1851, page 91: THE MARCHIONESS CORNWALLIS Dec. 5. At her residence in Park Crescent, in her 74th year, the Most Noble Louisa Marchioness Cornwallis. Louisa Marchioness Cornwallis was born at Gordon Castle, in the county of Bamff, on the 19th Oct. 1774, the fourth daughter of Alexander 4th Duke of Gordon, K.P. by Jane, second daughter of Sir William Maxwell, of Monreith, co. Wigton, Bart. She was sister to the late Duke of Gordon; and his other sisters were the late Duchess of Richmond and Lennox, Lady Madelina Palmer, the present Duchess dowager of Bedford, and the late Duchess of Manchester. Lady Louisa Gordon was married on the 17th April, 1797, at the Duke of Gordon's house in Piccadilly, to Charles Lord Viscount Brome, who in 1805 succeeded his father as second Marquess Cornwallis. He died without male issue on the 9th Aug. 1823. Her ladyship has left five daughters: the Countess of St. Germans, Lady Braybrooke, the Lady Mary Ross, and the Ladies Louisa and Elizabeth Cornwallis. "Endowed with a strong, intelligent, and inquiring mind, and great energy of character, in the pursuit of science, the study of natural history, or the more trifling occupations of the needle and works of fancy, this lady equally succeeded, and has left numberless proofs of her ingenuity and untiring industry. Taking the lead in society, from her rank and station, she was universally looked up to, whilst she was affable and courteous to all; the friend of innocent cheerfulness, and the ready promoter of whatever was for the general good. They who had the happiness of knowing her when at Culford (near Bury St. Edmunds) need not be reminded of her domestic virtues, and her incessant activity and anxiety for the welfare of all around her; visiting the poor, superintending personally her village school, in which she took and intense interest, watching incessantly to administer to the relief and comfort of her neighbours, and thinking only by what means she best might do them good. After leaving Culford, the scene of her usefulness was changed, but its efficiency was not lessened; and she was never forgetful of her former friends, always evincing a lively interest in their welfare, and, with the different members of her family, contributing largely to the bazaars in aid of the hospital. These qualities are remembered by many still remaining, who experienced the blessing of such a friend and benefactor, and have raised a lasting monument in their hearts and affections." (Bury Post) The remains of this much beloved lady were deposited in the family vault at Culford Church, by the side of her late husband, on Thursday, Dec. 12. The funeral, by her ladyship's express desire, was strictly private, being attended only by the five daughters of the deceased, their husbands, and ten of her grand-children. The procession was formed at the Hall Farm at Culford, and moved on foot to the church, the corpse being borne by twelve men. The service was performed by the Rev. James Anderson, Preacher at Lincoln's Inn; the Rev. f. Cheere, Curate of Ingham, and the Rev. W. Pridden, Rector of West Stow, being also in attendance. Many of the old servants and inhabitants of the surrounding villagers who had experienced the fostering care of her ladyship and the family, were present, and several persons from Bury. An impressive sermon on the sad event was preached at Culford Church on the following Sunday, by the Rev. Edward Hogg, Rector of Fornham St. Martin's, upon the 3rd chap. of Ecclesiastes, v. 15. | Gordon, Louisa (I00405)

Honble Charles and Tulleken Jemima Earl and Countess of Cornwallis. Born June 28. --- "The Autobiography and Correspondence of Mary Granville" Vol. 3, 1862, page 320-2: The Hon. Mrs. Boscawen to Mrs. Delany. Audley Street, 5th Dec., 1785. . . . I have no news to tell you but "of offence and trouble," that Lady Mary Cornwallis, a very young lady indeed, is gone off to Scotland with a Mr. Singleton, of the Guards, a younger brother. At least, so I heard last night, and this morning I read that the Countess Dowager of Cornwallis is dead, as if she were spared the grief of seeing such an enormity in her family, for I can hardly give it a gentler name -- as the young lady is not yet of an age even to be presented to Her Majesty, has had the boldness to commit herself for so many hundred miles, to the care of a young man with whom she can have had but a slight acquaintance; she took no female attendant or cloathes. It must be a great trouble to Mrs. Cornwallis, and a most ungrateful return for all her care and kindness; it was, however, lucky that she did not run from her, but from her father's house in Suffolk, where she was under the care of his sister, Lady Betty Southwell, and she took the opportunity of his lordship's being absent attending upon his dying mother. It seems Captain Singleton's parents are very worthy people, and have a very large estate (in Ireland), but they have an elder son, so the appointments of this younger one are probably very inadequate to his own expenses, as he has the honour (et le malheur) to belong to the Prince of Wales's sett; and is not for that the better qualify'd to marry and settle. --- "Derby Mercury" 15 Dec 1785, page 2: London, (Monday) Dec. 19.

The deceased lady was only suviving daughter of Charles, first Marquis Cornwallis, the celebrated general and statesman. Her ladyship was born on the 28th of June, 1769, and was consequently within a few weeks of completing her 88th year. She married in Nov., 1785, Mr. Mark Singleton, a wealthy commoner, who died in 1840.

Carolin Press, 2012: Governor Tynte's instructions provided that the other deputies should choose one of their number as interim governor. On a morning soon after Tynte's death, the three deputies (Gibbes, Thomas Broughton, and Fortescue Turberville) chose Broughton, but by afternoon Gibbes had bribed Turberville with the promise of "£100 and three places besides." Turberville changed his vote. Gibbes's misdeed was discovered after Turberville's death in the sickly colony on July 4, 1710, and only Broughton's forbearance prevented civil war between his supporters and those of Gibbes. --- "Charleston: The Place and the People" by Harriott Horry Ravenel, 1906, page 59: The law ran that if any Governor should die in office, the deputies of the Proprietors should choose one of themselves to act until their Lordships' pleasure could be known. It so happened that Colonel Tynte, who had superseded Sir Nathaniel, died after a few months' incumbency when there were only three deputies in the Province. They were Colonel Thomas Broughton, Governor Johnson's son-in-law, Mr. Robert Gibbes (both "Goose Creek men"); and Mr. Fortescue Turbeville, a late arrival. There were two sessions on the same day for the election; practically Turbeville was the sole elector. At the second (afternoon) session, he gave his vote for Gibbes, who was proclaimed Governor. Turbeville was then struck by apoplexy and died. It was discovered that in the morning he had voted for Broughton, had been bribed during the recess, had changed his vote accordingly, and had then met his fate. It reminds one of Earl Godwin choking on the consecrated wafer, and Earl Godwin was thought to have been smitten by the vengeance of the Lord. Thereupon Colonel Broughton claimed the office as having received the honest, unbought (morning) vote of the dead man. The quarrel was sharp and threatened to by bloody. --- "The History of South Carolina Under the Proprietary Government, 1670-1719" by Edward McCrady, 1897, page 489-90: . . . It happened that at this time there were but three deputies in the province; to wit, Robert Gibbes, Colonel Thomas Broughton, and one Fortescute Turbeville. The last-named person had just come out as the deputy of the Duke of Beaufort, and had been commissioned also to take probate of wills, and to grant letters of administration. Upon the meeting of these for the purpose of choosing a Governor, there had been a recess taken from the morning until the afternoon, when it was declared that Robert Gibbes was chosen and was proclaimed Governor. Strangely, it happened that Turbeville also died suddenly, and upon his death it was discovered that at the morning session Turbeville had voted for Colonel Broughton, but during the recess had been induced by bribery to change his vote to Gibbes. Upon this Broughton claimed the government, alleging Turbeville's primary and uncorrupted vote in his favor. To this Gibbes would not yield. Each persisted in his claim, and thereupon ensued a most discreditable controversy, ending in riot. Many of the people sided with Broughton, but more with Gibbes. | Turberville, Fortescue (I01172)

Richard Malben, 44 charged with stealing a bracelet and clasp of considerable value, property of the Rev. Chancellor Martin. It appeared that in February last, Lady Charlotte Martin, lost a valuable bracelet, at which time the prisoner was in the service of the Rev. Chancellor. Every search was made for it in vain. In the early part of this month, a female named Maria Chapman, offered the clasp for sale at Mr. Al Harts, on Fore Street Hill, whose son, Halick Levi, being present and entertaining some suspicions, under pretence of ascertaining its value procured an officer and secured the girl, on whose person the bracelet was also found. On being questioned she stated that she had received it from Richard Malben, who had requested her to dispose of it. On the trial Charlotte Chapman appeared as an evidence against the prisoner. On her cross examination, she stated that her mother washed for the Chancellor's family, and had worked in the house but not since February last. The Rev. Chancellor stated his belief from the workmanship, &c. that the bracelet was the one lost by Lady Charlotte, but could not swear to its identity. Mr. Pridham, surgeon, proved the inability of Lady Charlotte to attend the trial. Mr. Praed, who was counsel for the prisoner, contended that there was a want of identity. J.H. Seale, esq. gave the prisoner a good character, after a service of many years. On this evidence the case was left to the Jury who not agreeing were locked up and did not return their verdict till Wednesday morning 11 o'clock, and then acquitted the prisoner. --- "Exeter and Plymouth Gazette" 02 Jul 1831, page 3: The trial of Richard Malben, at our City Sessions, charged with stealing a bracelet of great value, the property of Lady Charlotte Martin, will be read with much interest. We understand that on Wednesday, after his discharge, Malben called at the house of Taylor, the Police Officer, and modestly demanded the bracelet, as he said the Chanceloor had failed in proving it to be his property!!! The fellow has since had the assurance to make an application to the committing Magistrate for the same purpose. --- "Exeter and Plymouth Gazette" 02 Jul 1831, page 4: EXTRAORDINARY TRIAL.

There was another count charging him with committing the felony in the parish of St. Thomas the Apostle, in the County of Devon, and within 500 yards of the County of the City of Exeter.

By whom she had four sons And Two Daughters She departed this Life On the 11 day of April In the year of our Lord Lamented by all that knew her. To her Verteous and Pious memory This Stone was Laid By her truely affectionate And Dutifull Daughter in law Elizabeth Eliot. Arms carved on above slab are those of Eliot and Williams. The Williams Arms shown are those of the family of the Williams of Thame (Oxfordshire) and Burfield (Burghfield), Berkshire. --- Aside from the fact that Ann and her husband lived at Cuddenbeak by 1693, almost nothing is known about this Eliot grandmother. Even though her father is recorded in family records as "Lawrence Williams of Ireland", was he a relative of the Williams family of Thame and Burfield? A connection has yet to be established between the families, but the arms on the floor slab belong, without doubt, to that family. --- "Heraldic Church Notes from Cornwall", by Arthur Jewers, pub. Mitchell and Hughes, 1889, page 71-72: "The next to claim our attention is the series of monuments of the St. Germans family, the earliest of which is no earlier than 1723. It is a floor slab in memory of Ann, relict of William Eliot, Esq., by whom she had four sons and two daughters. She died 11th April 1723, and to her memory this stone was placed by her daughter-in-law, Elizabeth Eliot. This lady was a daughter of Lawrence Williams, of Ireland, her husband being an officer in the Royal Navy, and son of Nicholas, fifth son of Sir John Eliot, of Port Eliot. Their children were --- Edward, who inherited Port Eliot from his cousin Daniel Eliot; Richard, who succeeded his nephew James, and was ancestor of the earls of St. Germans; and two sons, who died young; Catherine, married to Sir Nicholas Trevanion; Elizabeth, married the Rev.
