PEEFACE.

IT has frequently been said that the Camden Society have done nothing for the memory of Camden as a Herald. Camden, in reality, did but little, in that capacity, for himself; all his Visitations, as a King of Arms, were made by deputy.

It was in 1575, by the interest of Dr. Gabriel Goodman, Dean of Westminster, that Camden obtained the place of Second Master of Westminster School. In March 1592-3 he became the Head-Master. His spare hours and his holidays, in the earlier part of his career, were devoted to the production of his " Britannia," which first appeared in 1586. The duties of the School engrossed the rest of his time.

Although attacked by successive and painful illnesses, he pub- lished, in 1597, his Greek Grammar, entitled, " Grammatices Grsecae Institutio Compendiaria, in usum Regime Scholae Westmonas- teriensis," 8vo. London. Dr. Grant, his immediate predecessor, had composed one before him, but Camden thought it deficient and inconvenient. Wood says, Camden contracted it.

Gough, in the Life of Camden prefixed to his English edition of the Britannia, 1789, says, " At this time he probably enter- tained no thoughts of quitting a post in which he was universally esteemed and respected. He refused the place of Master of Requests, offered him probably by Lord Treasurer Burghley. But before the end of the year he quitted it for one in the Heralds' College.

VI PREFACE.

Richard Lee, Clarencieux King at Arms, dying September 23d, Sir Fulk Greville, Mr. Camden's intimate friend, solicited that office for him ; which the Queen immediately granted. But, because it was not usual for a person to rise to that dignity without having first been a Herald, he was October 22d created Richmond Herald, and the next day Clarenceux. Bishop Gibson remarks " that Lord Burghley was offended with Mr. Camden for obtaining this prefer- ment by any other interest than his ; but, on Mr. Camden's repre- senting it to be the free thought of Sir Fulk Greville, he was recon- ciled to him, and continued his patronage during the remainder of his life."

The Commission for Visitation granted to William Camden, Esq. Clarenceux, was dated 5th Aug. 1 Jac. I.

In virtue of the powers vested in him under this Commission he caused the following Counties to be visited by his several Marshals and Deputies.

In June 1619 Camden had a dispute with his brother Kings, Garter and Norroy, about the appointment of his Deputies to visit for him, which, though founded partly on a mistake, did not prevent their complaining to the Commissioners for executing the office of Earl Marshal. He vindicated himself in his answer to the Earl of Arundel, and the matter, says Gough, seems to have ended here.

Smith, in " Gulielmi Camdeni et illustrium Virorum ad G. Cam- denum Epistolas," Lond. 1691, has printed three Letters relating to this dispute, which are here given acccording to their dates.

" G. Camdenus D. D. G. Segaro et R. San Georgia.

Right worshipful Sirs,

You are misinformed that I have granted a Commission to Mr. Vincent for the Visitation of Lincolnshire : it was never motioned to me but once, and that incidently. I neither know, neither have heard, that his proceedings have distasted the Lords, or grieved the Gentry of those parts : but I have heard him commended by divers for his good carriage and skill. Verily to Mr. Philipot I have granted a Commission for Kent, induced thereunto by the desire and commendation of many Knights, yea Deputy-Lieutenants and Gen- tlemen of especial note in that County, under their hands, which shall be produced. I, remaining in this county this Vacation, will be a Supervisor of his Visitation, which he hath already begun. I hope you think it not befitting, that I should offer Deputations to any not desiring the same. I never denied any of their Superiors that desired

me : yea my offers to some of them for Gloucestershire, Surrey, and Cambridgeshire, without capitulation of profit, have been refused. So God love my soul, as I have tendred the general good of the Office, which they that drew the letter, if they will inwardly enter into themselves, I trust you will acknowledge, and in that resolution I will continue ; desiring you not to impeach me in the execution of my place, who never intermedled with yours ; beseeching the Al- mighty to bless us all with the Spirit of Unity and Christian Charity. June 3, 1619."

if G. Camdenus illustrissimo viro Thomce Comiti Arundelice.

Right honourable and my very good Lord,

I received the 6th of this instant a letter from Mr. Wilson in your Lordship's name, and the rest of the Commissioners for the office of the Earl Marshal, commanding me to stay John Philpot from proceeding in the deputation which I gave him for the County of Kent : whereupon I accordingly sent my servant to seek him and stay him. I perceive that suggestions are made against him and me. For him, verily I deputed him half a year since, at the desire and commendations of sundry Knights and Gentlemen of especial note in that County under their hands ; not knowing any other so able and skilful for that employment ; since which time I have heard no ex- ception taken against him till now. As for me, I thank God I have done nothing but that which is justifiable. Whether I have or no, and whether these Informers against me have to intermeddle in these matters, I beseech you to take into your consideration these points granted to me by His Majesty's Letters Patents :

6 His Majesty hath appointed William Camden Clarenceux King of Arms in the East, West, and South parts of the Realm of England, to visit the said Province, and the parts thereof, from time to time, as

PREFACE. IX

often and ivhen lie shall think most necessary and convenient, and to appoint his Deputy or Deputies, Attorney or Attornies.

6 And further, His Highness does straitly charge and command, that no other person or persons shall intromit or meddle with any thing or things touching or concerning the office of Arms without special licence and authority of the said Clarenceux, in writing under the seal of the said office, first had and obtained from the said Clarenceux. All the which power, pre-eminence, jurisdiction, his Highness, for himself, his heirs and successors, does give and grant to the said WILLIAM CAMDEN, during his natural life, in as ample manner and form as any his predecessors have or had, with all manner of profits thereto be- longing,' fyc.

Hereby your Honour seeing what is granted to me, and what is prohibited to the Informers against me, I doubt not but you, whom I know to be truly honourable, just, and judicious, will countenance this my authority, grounded upon His Majesty's grant, and not suffer it to be insulted upon : but permit my Deputy to proceed in the Visitation, and me to enjoy the benefit of His Majesty's grant as peaceably as other his subjects and servants do. For the which I rest,

Your humble Suppliant,

7 July, 1619. WILLIAM CAMDEN."

15th July, 1619. WILLIAM CAMDEN, Clarenceux"

In Camden's " Annales ab anno 1603 ad annum 1623," subjoined to Smith's Latin life of him, the following short memoranda, pp. 46, 47, relate to this dispute.

" 1619. Maii 30. Literaa ad me ab Heraldis contra Vincentium et Philpot.

Com."

It is probable that the following Letter, of a little later date as to Month, the original of which is preserved in the Cottonian MS. Faustina E. I. fol. 11, relates to the same contention. It is ad- dressed, " To my very lovinge Friend Mr. Sl. George, at the Office of Armes dd."

" It hath been brymly tould mee from the mouth of our honorable Earle Marshall, that my office of Clarenceux is conferred and in- vested upon Mr. Kniveton (or) Mr. Boulton, or some other, not for any fault committed by mee, but by you Mr. St. George or Mr. Philpott. I pray you confess ingeniously wherin you have offended, that I may not bee punnished for your delinquency, for they pur- pose to leave mee £600 presently, and an hundred mark a yeere.

PREFACE. XI

I pray you come unto mee if you can possible to informe me of the verity of this matter, for you best can, and soe I rest

" Chiselh. 26th Yor lovinge friend,

The shaken signature, which is all of this Letter that is in Cam- den's own hand,, seems as if it had been written in a later year than 1619. It is clear, however, that the attempt to injure Camden failed, for Philipot, as has been shewn, visited Kent in 1619, Hants in 1622, and Berks in 1623. St. George visited Devon and Corn- wall in 1620 ; Wilts, Dorset, and Somerset, in 1623. So that there were no substantial grounds for complaint against Camden. The passage in this Letter regarding £600 is unintelligible. Camden's Patent was never revoked; and he died Clarenceux, Nov. 9th, 1623:a nor were Kniveton or Boulton Officers of Arms at any time.

a The following is a copy of his Funeral Certificate, as recorded in the College of Arms. I. 22, p. 90 :—

" William Camden, Esquier, al's Clarenceux King of Armes of the east, west, and south parts of the kingdome of England, on this side the riuer of Trent southward, being a batcheler, departed this mortall life at Chiselhurst, in Kent, the ixth daye of November, 1623, being Sundaye, in the mornning about 4 or 5 of the clock, and was from thence conveyed to Westminster ; his funerall was worship- fully solempnized according to his degree on Wensdaye the xixth of the same moneth, in manner following, that is : first proceeded 26 poore men in gownes, then gentlemen in cloaks, then esquiers, then knights ; Sir Henry Bourchier, Knight ; Sir Francis Lee, Knight of the Bath ; and Sir Robert Cotton, Knight and Baronett ; then Mr. Docter Heather, being his executor, and Mr. Docter Sutton, preacher at this ffunerall ; next, after the Penon, Phillip Holland, Portcullis, and Augustyn Vincent, Rouge Croix, with their coats on their armes ; the Penon borne by Mr. Wyat, his kinseman ; his healme and creast by John Phillipot, Rouge Dragon ; his coate of armes by Samuell Thompson, Windsor Herauld. On his corps, on the pall of black veluet, was placed the King's rich coate of armes, with his coronett with which he was crowned at his creac'on, the pall

Xll PREFACE.

NICHOLAS CHARLES, Blanch Lyon Pursuivant, was appointed Lancaster Herald by Patent, dated 17th Nov. 1608, and created with ceremony on the 21st April following. He was a skilful and judicious officer, and it is said "worthily filled his place." b He accompanied Sir Richard St. George, Norroy, in his Visitation of Derbyshire in 1611, and was afterwards appointed by Camden his Deputy to take that of Huntingdon. His career though short was useful and industrious.0 He died 19th November 1613, leaving a widow, Penelope, daughter of Sir William Seagar, Garter, who re- married Timothy Cartwright, of Washborne, in the county of Glou-

beinge supported by Sampson Lennard, Blewmantle ; Henry Chitting, Chester ; Henry St. George, Richmond ; and William Penson, Lancaster, Heraulds : next the body followed Sir William Segar, Garter, Knight, principall Kingeof Armes ; his two assistants, Sir Richard St. Georg, Knight, Norroy Kinge of Armes, and Robert Treswell, Somersett Herauld. After them he was accompanyed with dyuers noblemen as the right honourable the Lord Keeper, then Byshop of Lincolne ; the Earle of Leic' ; the Viscounte Graundi- son ; the Bishop of London ; the Bishopp of Winchester ; the Bishop of Durham, with other Byshops ; the Lord Paget ; the Lord Gary ; and many more barons, knights, esquiers, and gentlemen. This certificate was taken by William Penson, Lancaster, and the truth thereof testified by Doctor Heather, executor to the defunct, by subscripc'on of his name. WILLIAM HEATHER."

c The Cottonian MS. Jul. C. in. fol. 102 b. preserves the following Letter from him to Sir Robert Cotton : "Sr.

Not knowing how I may deserve that love and courtesie you have allwayes affoorded me, yet still presuming upon your favour, I have made bould to acquaynt you with such newes as our City is filled with. And first the Lord Bruse is certeynly slayne by Mr Sackvile, in the feilds without Andwerpe in Brabant, and Sackvile himself sore wounded. Also my Lo. Harington died within twoo dayes journey of Hidelberg, and a gentleman of his, a brother to Sr Edward Bushell, very treacherously killed by the meanes of Sr Andrew Keth, master of the horse to the lady Elizabeth. But Keyth is in hould to be sent over into England. There is also a quarrell betweene my Lo: of Essex and Mr Harry Howard, and one of them is gotten over.

e There is in the Library of the College of Arms a quarto Volume of Pedigrees in his own hand, interspersed with Drawings of Arms and Seals, in which some few descents have been introduced in another hand, and probably that of William Booth, judging from an autograph at the beginning of the MS. " Wm. Booth, of Wetton, his book, 1660."

The Lansdowne MS. 874, in the British Museum, contains a large and curious Collec- tion of Epitaphs and Arms in many of the Churches in London, and other parts of Eng- land, begun by Nich. Charles in 1610, and continued by Sir Henry St. George, Claren- ceux ; with some later additions. This volume contains many Drawings of Monuments, Copies of Arms, &c. from painted windows, of some of which few or no vestiges are elsewhere to be found.

A Volume of Charles's Collections, in part illustrated by Drawings of Seals and Arms, is also preserved in the Cottonian MS. Julius C. vu.

The Harl. MS. 1349 contains various other matters illustrative of the City and Citizens

XIV PREFACE.

Charles survived the completion of this Visitation a very short time ; but it was not until some years after that Camden brought into the Office the Return of the Visitation taken under his authority, as appears from the following Note on the first page of the Book in the College of Arms, viz.

" This Booke, conteyning the Visitacon of Huntingdonshire, by Nicholas Charles, Lancaster, in anno 1613, delivered into the Office the 5 day of Marche 1621 by William Camden, Clarenceux King of Armes. " In the presence of the whole office."

The next leaf bears the autograph of Charles.

The volume thus described and identified, and remaining in the Library of the College of Arms, is marked C. 3. Huntington 1613.

On comparison of the Cottonian MS. with this it is evident that Charles must have made a copy for himself almost simultaneously, as the variations are so trifling that the two manuscripts may be consi- dered almost fac-simile of each other. To his own copy he has appended transcripts of the Commission to Clarenceux and of his own Deputation ; of his summons to the Baylif of the Hundred of Nor- mancross, for the Knights, Esquires, and Gentlemen of that Hun- dred, to appear before him for the purposes of the Visitation ; of the Proclamation for disclaiming of such as had usurped the title of Gentlemen; and his Summons to defaulters to appear before the Earl Marshal.

Two other copies of Charles's Visi- tation of the County of Huntingdon may be found among the Harleian MSS. Nos. 1075 and 1179.

Gough, Brit. Top. vol. ii. p. 230, says, " Le Neve had a Visitation of Staffordshire by Nicholas Charles, Lancaster." He adds, ibid. p. 243, that Sir John Cullum had Nicholas Charles's copy of Harvey's Visitation of Suffolk ; but no such MS. as this is, at present, in the Library at Hard wick.

PREFACE. XV

The Editor has now only to express his kindest thanks to Sir CHARLES GEORGE YOUNG, GARTER, for obligingly collating the proof sheets of the present Volume with the original Visitation in the Library of the College of Arms ; and also for the Account of Nicholas Charles given in the present Preface.

TO MR. ROBERT CASTLE OF GLATTON.

Whereas by vertue of his Mat's comission under the Great Seale of England you were warned by the bayliff of the hundred of Normancrosse to apeare before me Lancaster Herald of Armes at Stilton, where I satt in his Mats behalf and service to register all the gentlemen of name and of armes wthin the same hundred, according to the tenour of his Mats said Comission ; and you not only made default of appearance there, but after, by myself being warned to Huntington, have likewise made default of your aparaunce there also, to the hindrance of his Majesties service and contempt of the Great Seale of England. And forasmuch as I fynde in the last Visitation of this shire, which was about the begin- ning of the reigne of the late Queene Elizabeth of happy memory, that your family had then no Coate of Armes prooved or allowed unto them, and that since that tyme you have falsly and wthout true ground usurped the auncient armes of one Castle of Warwickshire, these are therefore to require you, and in his Mats name streightly to charge and com- mand you, that from henceforth you do not only forbeare the using or bearing of the said armes wch you have hitherto usurped against all right and custome of the lawe of armes, but also any other armes whatsoever, untill you know the Earle Marshall's pleasure there- in ; and hereof fayle you not, as you will aunswere the contrary at your perill for your further contempt hereof. Given under my hand at Huntington the 28 day of August, A°. D'ni 1613, and in the eleventh yeare of his Mate reigne of England, France, and Ireland, and of Scotland the seaven and fourtieth.
