INTRODUCTION.
FORTY-SIX years had elapsed after Flower's
Heraldic Visitation of Lancashire, In the early part
of the reign of queen Elizabeth, before another Visitation
was made In the early part of the reign of her successor.
In the interval, education and commerce had effected
great changes In the state of society, and the learned
works on heraldry, genealogy and ceremonies, by Glover,
Segar, Camden and Mllles, had Imparted much Impor-
tance to the study of those feudal subjects. It was 'held
that heraldic distinctions preserved the remembrance
of military prowess, supported hereditary rank, and
illustrated national history and antiquities. Churches
and castles, monuments, w^indows and pavements, family
bearings and numismatics, were all connected with the
study of heraldry. It thus became an object of interest
to many of the old territorial families publicly to record
their title to their armorial bearings, and to register their
descents when it had not already been done, and to per-
petuate It Avhen It had. But this observance was not
iv Introduction.
general, especially in Lancashire. The number of fami-
lies who answered the summons of the heralds continued
very slowly to increase, notwithstanding the increase of
new and opulent families. At the first visitation in 1533
there had been recorded the arms and descents of thirty-
three houses; at the second visitation in 1567 the num-
ber had increased to one hundred and twelve; and in the
third visitation in 161 3 to one hundred and twenty-four.
But as a proof of the little general interest felt in the
matter in Lancashire, fifty-six families who had appeared
in 1567, absented themselves in 16 13, and only forty-
three families appeared, by their representatives, at both
the visitations; so that in a period of nearly half a century
only twenty-two fresh entries were made, and of these,
two, at least, ought to have been recorded in the visita-
tion of Cheshire,' one in that of Middlesex,^ and another,^
perhaps, not at all.
There were two qualifications which guided the heralds
in summoning gentlemen to appear before them at the
visitations. The one was that the individual should be
found in the list of the great freeholders of the county,
and the other that he should be eligible to serve on grand
juries. On these grounds we seldom meet with the
clergy at the visitations, although after the reformation,
as a rule, they used arms and not merely ecclesiastical
badges and devices. Lancashire had only two noblemen
when this visitation was made, but they did not appear

by deputy or otherwise, and the reason is obvious. The
peerage has always been under the jurisdiction of Garter,
whose rule is quite independent of Clarencieux or Norroy,
and no commission was ever issued to him to " visit."
The provincial kings, Clarencieux and Norroy, had de-
fined and limited powers, and were only authorized to
take notices of gentlemen holding rank inferior to that
of the peerage.
In this Visitation the only visible progress or improve-
ment is to be found in the mode of registration, the nar-
rative form being abandoned, and the tabular form intro-
duced. The statements for the most part are still vague
and meagre, and the results unsatisfactory, dates and docu-
ments being generally avoided, or when introduced they
sometimes elude the attempt to prove their authenticity
or to confute their genuineness. Norroy carried out the
existing system and there was no divergence from it
for at least half a century; and then came a change for
the better, which has continued, with improvements, to
the present time.
The Visitation book now printed, being the original
manuscript, has not been collated with an official copy by

the genealogies printed on pp. 130-135 are supplied from

involve the expenditure of much time and labour to

extant at the same period, and almost futile to attempt to
account for the marvellous discrepancies that occur in them

all. From these discrepancies arises the uncertainty of
genealogical information at almost any former time. It
may perhaps be admitted without dispute, that unless
pedigrees have been well sifted, according to the present
usage of the College of arms, and subjected almost to
legal proof by documentary evidence, extraneous to viva
voce testimony (which was the general mode of taking
information at the visitations), little or no dependence
can be placed upon them. Traditionary evidence and
oral communications are insufficient proof Daily expe-
rience shows that different members of the same family,
in giving testimony of their arms and descent, make
statements equally conflicting and equally absurd with
those made at this visitation ; and when the stern test
of contemporaneous documentary proof is applied, it is
not unfrequently found that the whole fabric of an old
pedigree"* is in a state of very doubtful security.
It is apparent that at this visitation the heads of houses
themselves did not always see to the correct registration
of their arms and descents. They commissioned their
attorneys^ or stewards^ or a younger son^ to record such
evidence as they had at hand, and these officials some-
times attested by their signature the correctness of their
statements, doubtless made to the best of their knowledge,
information, and belief, the first however being often super-
ficial, the next small, and the last capacious. Where the
pedigrees are not authenticated by the signature of the

head of the family who made the entry, the errors appear
to be the most startHng ; and there is sometimes a sad
absence of information even where the squire himself
appeared. A gentleman attested his genealogy of eight
lineal descents, but entered on the record neither the
name of his wife nor his mother, nor the name of one
female ancestor except that of a great heiress who had
conveyed her estate to his family about two centuries
before, and he had to retire from the court with the
mortifying information that he had no allowance of
arms.^ In two pedigrees, the one of fifteen^ and the
other of eight'° generations in direct lineal descent,
only one marriage in each case is recorded. There
are nine generations of the Radcliffes on record without
the name of one wife," and in the third generation
of the Hoghtons the eldest son is named Thomas,'^
and he having no heir male is said to have been succeeded
by his brother bearing the same christian name, being the
sons of the same parents, whereas we know from another
source that they were brothers in half-blood only. Ano-
ther instance of two sons of the same father bearing the
same christian name'^ is accurately recorded by the Intel-
ligent head of the house, who, like his grandfather, an old
and sagacious lawyer, who had died three years before,
was fully alive to the importance of legal evidence.'* An

error which seems to be inexplicable is found in another
pedigree/^ where there are three sons living, two of them
being named Thomas ; one of these is recorded as the
"first" son, and aged a year and a half, the other as the
"second" son, and the eldest son is described as being
of the age of 1 2 years ; their parents being alive, and
all their offspring being the grand-children of the attorney-
general of the Duchy of Lancaster, and the father who
verified these incongruous statements being a learned
councillor at law. It seemed to be unnecessary to
record that the four daughters of a gentleman were
"co-heiresses" when the youngest was only two years
of age and the parents still living/^ These are passages
which require no Ralph Brooke to parade a "Discoverie
of errors," and will find no Camden to vindicate them.
In one instance four generations of the same house were
living at the time of the visitation, and the patriarch of
the family at the age of 95 years ought to have supplied
more copious evidence regarding his forbears.'^
The sort of proof required and brought for the infor-
mation of the heralds seems to have been various, but in
the greater number of cases parole evidence was tendered
and accepted. Bradshaw of Bradshaw produced two
precious letters:'* one of them from Henry Percy, the first
earl of Northumberland, K.G., the father of Hotspur, and
with whom Bradshaw the young Lancashire soldier had
probably served and fought at Chevy Chace and else-

where, in the reign of Richard II.; and the other letter
was probably from sir William Harrington, the second
and brave son of Nicholas Harrington of Huyton Hey,
esq., in the time of Henry VI. These letters had been
addressed to some members of the Bradshaw family who
could not have their place assigned on the face of the
pedigree, although the letters had been so carefully pre-
served, but the result was satisfactory in another respect,
as the old arms were recognized and entered, and it is to
be regretted that the letters also were not "entered"
in extenso.
Travers brought his ancient muniments from the time
of Edward I. to Henry VII. in proof of his descent and
armorial rights, and the lineal succession was satisfactorily
deduced, although the herald could not decide which of
the two old seals containing arms, then presented to him,
ought to be borne by the house. '^
In one instance there is a reference to Holinshed, the
historian, to establish a fact.''"
Hindley produced his evidences and described his
descent well for at least three centuries, but was not
allowed to bear arms.*'
Winckley also produced his charters from a remote
age and proved succession, but the legend of an ancient
seal of arms which was inspected being partly decayed
or defaced, the armorial bearing was not allowed."
Ashhurst also was able to bring forward the treasures

from his muniment chest^^ and to prove a great deal, being
probably proud of his descent; so that when the head of
an old house felt an interest in the subject, streams of
evidence poured in and ' the cause of heraldry and gene-
alogy was upheld in what has been considered its dazzling
and palmy age.
But few gentlemen were as pretentious and ambitious
as Gellibrand, who mounted up to the Norman Conquest
and supported himself in his airy flight and shadowy
claim by bringing forward a document, with an exact
date, of the nth century — "5 W. Conq.," ^^ — which
might perchance be proof positive to Norroy of either
simple credulity or of incautious audacity on the squire's
part touching the evidence submitted.
The heralds of 1533 and 161 3 appear alike to have
waged war with the wealthy family of Holt of Stubley and
Castleton, who could fairly boast of high local rank and
influence.*^ At the first named visitation Tonge recorded
that " Robart Holt of Stubley had marrd an ould woman
and woud not enter" his pedigree, which, notwithstanding,
was entered by somebody in 1567,^^ and "the ould woman"
had certainly female issue. Robert, the nephew and heir
male of Robert Holt the elder, had, also, only surviving
daughters, the eldest of whom, Mary, married her kins-
man, Charles Holt, and continued the line. This Charles
Holt's father is called a " yeaman," and in the estimation
of a herald of that day such he might be ; but he was

assuredly "descended out of the house of Stubley," and
had a very considerable estate in the parish of Bury, al-
though he might lack the advantage of the education and
social position of his cousin, the head of the house in
Rochdale parish, who was an active justice of the peace
in the reign of Henry VIII., and connected by descent
and marriage with some good knightly families. This
is an instance of the arbitrary manner in which country
gentlemen were sometimes treated by the kings of
arms. Charles Holt of Stubley, jure uxor is, and re-
lated to her in the third degree of consanguinity, was
not an illiterate man, as he wrote a fair hand ; intelli-
gently defended the just rights of the poor chapels of
Saddleworth and Milnrow in 1561 ; boldly opposed the
wrongful dealing of sir John Byron with church pro-
perty ; promoted the principles of the Reformation ; and
was one of archbishop Parker's correspondents on the
founding of Rochdale grammar school. It is to be
noticed that the herald styles the family in 16 13, "but
yeamen " and having " noe coat at all," and yet Charles
Holt himself had arms allowed by Flower in 1567.'^
The statement of the marriage of Nicholas Townley'^ is
singularly incorrect, and some years ago proved a diffi-
culty to an indefatigable genealogist, who was tracing his
family descent. After a laborious investigation of evi-
dences, public and private, the difficulty, I have reason to
know, was ultimately surmounted, and St. George's egre-

gious error was rectified to the satisfaction of his able suc-
cessor, sir Charles G. Young, Garter. Nicholas Townley
married Lettice, daughter and coheiress of William Tal-
bot of Shuttleworth hall, near Padiham, and the widow of
Edmund Asheton of Chaderton, esq. Of the three pedi-
grees of Townley,^^ one records the descendants of a
collateral of the Royle family, settled at Littleton, co.
Middlesex, and seems out of place in a visitation of
Lancashire.
The herald who visited Lancashire in 1613 was Richard
St. George, esq., who claimed to be descended from a
family of his name who had held the manor of Hatley
St. George in Cambridgeshire during five centuries, and
who had become connected by marriage with several dis-
tinguished and noble houses. He was a man of respect-
able learning, and had acquired considerable heraldic
knowledge. In the year 1602 his great ambition was
gratified on his being appointed a Pursuivant extraor-
dinary. His rise was rapid, as in the same year he
became Windsor herald by patent dated i8th December
45 Elizabeth 1602, and Norroy by signet in January
1603-4, but his patent for that office was not dated until
24th January 1607, and on the 17th December 1623 he
was created Clarencieux by patent. On the 28th Sep-
tember 1 61 6 he received the honour of knighthood.
Whilst Norroy he was indefatigable in personally holding
visitations in various counties, being attended by his

deputies. In 1613 his son Henry, who two years be-
fore had purchased the office of Blue Mantle of his
predecessor, accompanied his father into Lancashire, and
some of the pedigrees and tricking of arms in the Visita-
tion book now printed are written and tricked by him.
Sir Richard St. George has the reputation, in the College
of arms, of having been an able and industrious officer,
possessed of ability to grasp a complicated subject of
descent, and to master its details and legal bearings in
a clear and satisfactory manner. He had the privilege
of ranking amongst his personal friends, sir Robert Cot-
ton, Camden, Spelman and Weaver, all kindred spirits,
and all cultivating the same branches of learning.
He died at his house in High Holborn, co. Middlesex,
on Whitsunday, the 17th May 1635, and was buried in the
chancel of St. Andrew's church, Holborn, on the Friday
following. His will was proved 26th May 1635 in the
Prerogative court of Canterbury {^t^ Sadler), of which he
made his eldest son (afterwards Garter) sole executor.
He married Elizabeth, eldest daughter of Nicholas St.
John of Lidyard Tregoza, co. Wilts, esq., ancestor of the
viscounts St. John and Bolinbroke, by whom he had issue
five sons and three daughters. Of these the eldest son.
Sir Henry St. George, knighted by the king of Sweden,
was a zealous royalist, attended upon the king at Oxford,
was there created D.C.L., and, having risen through all the
gradations of the College of arms, became Garter. 3° He

seems to have been well skilled in the duties of his pro-
fession which were afterwards discharged by his two sons,
sir Thomas^' and sir Henry,^^ who both rose successively
to the high office of Garter. The fourth son of sir
Richard settled in Ireland as Ulster king of arms, was
knighted, and had a son Oliver created a baronet.
George, eldest son of the baronet, was ennobled in
1 714-15 by the title of baron Hatley St. George, of the
CO. of Roscommon, and the family long flourished in
Ireland. '3
Although this Visitation was made in the year 16 13,
there are a few additions and interpolations of a more
recent date, which were not made by the visiting heralds,
Norroy and Blue Mantle. The pedigrees are, however,
chiefly in the handwriting of sir Richard St. George, and
some are written by his son. There are also a few
additions of arms and some continuations to divers
descents, which will be easily perceived, being the handy-
work of John Withie, who, like Camden's father, was a
painter-stainer,^'* but of whom nothing more is known.
It may be feared that he had neither skilful training

nor sage experience to qualify him for the office he
assumed. Of these additions reference may be made
to the pedigree of Humfrey Chetham entered in 1635,3s
at which time the family arms were "confirmed" to
the great Manchester benefactor by sir Henry St.
George, Garter, who had upwards of twenty years
before visited Lancashire as Blue Mantle.
On the face of the pedigree of Preston of Furness
manor^^ recorded by the head of the house, who gave in
the information and signed the office book, the last
generation was a subsequent addition, as there are the
dates 16 1 5, 1 62 1 and 1623.
Blundell of Ince Blundell did not complete his pedi-
gree until the year 16 14," which may account for the
details being more exact and copious than many of the
others, and also why it was not entered during the visita-
tion of Norroy in Lancashire. This may also account
for Its not being verified by Mr. Blundell's signature.
The pedigree of Walmesley^^ is not authenticated by
any signature, and the date 1637 is an interpolation.
The statements regarding Chadwick of Healey,^^ made
apparently upon the authority of a judge and sustained
by apparently legal and heraldic documents, although not
authenticated or subscribed by the person who gave the

information, are altogether fabulous, and probably the
"handy-work" of John Withie, as Dr. John Chadwick
in 1613 is said to be chaplain to king Charles I. There
is not a better evidenced pedigree in the College of arms,
supported by a series of family deeds and authentic docu-
ments, than that of Chadwick of Healey; and the attempt
to unite the Nottinghamshire Chad wicks with those of
Lancashire by colonel John Chadwick, his pains-taking
and well-informed son Charles Chadwick, F.S.A., and J.
C. Brooke, esq., Somerset herald, was a complete failure.
It was supposed by these exact and cautious genealo-
gists that the Irish judge (whose son James married
Mary, daughter and coheiress of archbishop Tillotson),
was a very remote connection of Chadwick of Chadwick,
but the connecting^ link was wanting. Their surname
alone proved them of Lancashire and Saxon origin, and
traditionally at least they were descended from Chadwick
of Healey, bore the same silver martlets on their shield,
and the same white lily for their crest.^"
As this Visitation book became the property of the
nation with lord Harley's library about the year 1753, it
is obvious that the additions to the pedigree of Prest-
wich of Hulme were made whilst the MS. was in his
lordship's possession, about or a little after the year
1744-5.^' The writer was undoubtedly the Irish author

of the Rcspitblica, published 4to, 1787, and who himself,
notwithstanding his Quixotic claim to the extinct baro-
netcy which he assumed, shows by these manuscript notes
that he had no legal title to it. He had been invested
with a trust in the loan of the manuscript, and by making
these additions it may be feared that he had abused
the confidence placed in him. The amount of clumsy
work done by him, here and elsewhere, exacts little
praise.
The manuscript now printed is written on paper in folio
size, and consists, with the index, of 127 folios; it is in
good preservation, and is marked in the Harl. Bib. 1437.

to Thomas Howard earl of Suffolk. Having always had an affectionate regard for his Rochdale relatives, he died

the poor within the hamlet of Healey; to Edward Harris of Baddow in Essex, esq., 5/. In a letter to his brother
Robert, dated 7th May 1616, he writes thus : "I sent Dick Entwisle to see your son John [afterwards rector of
Standish] admitted, and I sent the tutor 6/., as at entrance there are extraordinary charges. I would have you pay
him regularly 34^-. \d. per quarter, and I will allow him 10/. a year till he is master of arts, whether I live or die,
and if that wont do, I will make an addition." Dr. Charles Chadwick had a brother John, rector of Dai-field in
the county of York, and prebendary of Southwell, also of Christ's college, Cambridge; but as he did not become
a doctor of divinity until the year 1614, the elder brother will be the individual who was to "give the herald fur-
ther satisfaction" about the right of the family to bear arms. The proof was adduced, and the arms borne by this
ancient family still remain, gules, an inesciiUheoti, within an orb of martlets, argent. This is the coat of Rachdale

II Thomas Healey of Rochdale was a wealthy yeoman, but made no proof of his right to arms. He was

Healey the younger was admitted to the same on the death of Mr. Thomas Healey, his uncle. On the 3rd July
1638, Thomas Healey of Birches, yeoman, surrendered these lands to Ottiwell Woolfenden of Hallsgrave.— (7i^/^.
p. 212.) The family never became heraldic.
TI Oliver Chadwick of Chadwick, gent., was the head of the parent house of that name, from a younger son of
which in the 15th century descended the Chadwicks of Healey, who continue to the present time, although they
abandoned their old seat in the parish of Rochdale, as one of them, full of the noble instincts of a true English
gentleman, sorrowfully observed, "when the prowess of Rochdale's esquires and gentlemen had dwindled into a
mercantile race, and when the age of chivalry was no more." Oliver Chadwick, here named, was the eldest son
of Roger Chadwick of Chadwick hall, gent. , by his wife Isabel, daughter of Arthur Asheton of Rochdale, gent. , and
sister of William Asheton of Clegg hall, esq. He married Jane, daughter of Edmund Haslam of Falinge, gent.,
and dying on the 6th December 1621, 19 Jac, was buried in the chancel of Rochdale church, being succeeded by
his only son and heir John Chadwick. — {Lane. MSS., vol. xiii. p. 163.)

It appeareth by a testification under the hand of William Segar,
Norroy King of Armes, that this Coate of Armes hath auntiently
belonged unto the auntient family of the Chadwicks of Chadwick
and Heley Hall, in com. Lane, and the same coate of armes doth

the lawfull heire of Chadwick hall and Helye hall in com. Lane, and

peareth in like manner that the said Jordan Chadwick by reason of
a quarrell and feude was inforced to departe out of Lancashire, and
sent his sonne John into Nottinghamshire to his cossen Anslawes and
left him in that Towne in trust to be brought up by one of his owne
name, as his childe, and the saide Jordan haveing thus disposed of
his sonne, went himselfe into France where he dyed, and it further
appeareth as well by a sentence made by the Right Ho'^'^ the Lo.
Maltravers, Lo. Lieut, to his father the Earle Marshall of England
against one Anthony Jauncye at the suite of the saide James Chad-
wicke, as also by the kings Letters Patents under the greate scale of

in the said kingdom of Ireland, which said James Chadwick hath
issue, John his eldest sonne, James his 2 sonne, Daniell his 3 sonne,

Haveing scene a testificac5n under the hand of William Segar,
