ENGLISH  BENEDICTINE  NUNS  IN  FLANDERS,  1598-1687 
ANNALS  OF  THEIR  FIVE  COMMUNITIES 

By  Lady  Abbess  Anne  Neville 

The  following  Annals  are  in  the  handwriting  of  their  authoress  the  fourth 
Abbess  of  a  community  which  was  founded  from  that  of  Ghent  about  the 
middle  of  the  seventeenth  century,  and  finally  settled  at  Pontoise  in  1658. 
This  Abbess  was  Mary  Neville,  daughter  to  Henry,  Baron  Abergavenny,  by 
his  first  wife,  the  Lady  Mary  Sackville,  whose  father  was  Thomas,  Earl  ot 
Dorset.  Mary  Neville  was  born  in  1605;  she  made  her  profession  as  Dame 
Anne  in  1634  in  the  Benedictine  Abbey  of  the  Immaculate  Conception  of  the 
Blessed  Virgin  Mary,  at  Ghent,  which  had  been  founded  eleven  years  pre- 
viously from  the  first  Post-Reformation  Monastery  at  Brussels. 

Dame  Anne  filled  in  succession  the  offices  of  chief  importance  in  the 
House  of  her  profession,  during  some  thirty  years,  after  which  she  joined  its 
daughter  community  at  Pontoise,  of  which  she  was  elected  Abbess  within 
a  year,  on  the  death  of  the  third  Abbess, having  reached  the  age  of  62.  She 
governed  for  22  years,  and  died  in  1689  at  the  age  of  84.  The  annals  break 
off  abruptly  at  the  date  of  1687. 

After  her  death  her  Religious  daughters  wrote  of  her  that  "her  hu- 
"  mility,  charity  and  motherly  hart,  was  soe  remarkable  that  it  extend'd  to 
'  *  every  one  in  perticular,  as  if  she  had  had  no  other  or  greater  business,  then 
**  to  comfort  and  assist  those  who  address'd  themselves  to  her  in  theyre  neces- 
"  sityes,  and  this  even  in  the  midst  &  height  of  those  many  heavy  crosses, 
"  which  god  was  pleas'd  to  favour  her  with,  having  given  her  an  invinsible 
"  Courage  &  vertue  above  y**  ordinary  to  suport  y'",  not  only  patiently,  but 
"  with  allacritye  &  cheerfulness.  She  was  endowed  with  a  great  &  generous 
"  spirit,  «&  all  her  actions  were  accompany'dwt^  Justice,  worth  &  affabillity 
' '  w^h  gave  that  Luster  to  them  as  became  y^  noblenes  of  her  mind  and  birth ; 
"  the  love  of  god  incessently  inflam'dher  hart,  w*^  zeale  &  devotion,  &  she 
"  had  soe  familiar  a  conversation  and  strict  union  w^^AlltJ  god  yt  what  she 
'*  spoke  in  edification  to  her  community  she  generally  drew  from  y®  inter- 
"  tainements  she  had  w^^^  him  interiourly."  These  words  are  sufficient 
introduction  to  the  person  of  our  authoress. 

But  the  connection  between  her  community  and  that  of  St  Scholas- 
tica's  Abbey,  Teignmouth,  where  the  Pontoise  Records  are  now  preserved, 
remains  to  be  traced. 

Ten  years  after  the  Ghent  Abbey  sent  out  the  filiation  which  eventu- 
ally settled  at  Pontoise,  that  Mother-house  again  overflowed,  and  made  a 
second  foundation  at  Dunkerque  in  1663,  where  it  flourished  with  a  large 
school  for  the  daughters  of  English  Catholics  who  could  no  longer  be 
trained  in  the  ancient  faith  in  their  own  land. 

During  the  eighteenth  century  the  Pontoise  community  dwindled  in 
numbers,  and  notwithstanding  a  school  in  which  were  educated  many  chil- 
dren of  the  nobility  of  England,  Scotland  and  Ireland,  it  sank  deeper  and 
deeper  into  poverty,  until  in  1 786  the  Archbishop  of  Rouen,  as  their  superior, 
decided  that  a  longer  struggle  was  useless,  and  that  the  dissolution  of  the 
monastery  was  inevitable. 

The  Abbess,  Anne  Clavering,  with  the  larger  number  of  her  Religious 
were  received  into  the  community  at  Dunkerque,  only  to  be  expelled  with

them  seven  years  later,  in  October,  1793,  by  the  French  Revolutionists,  who 
imprisoned  them  at  Gravelines  during-  eighteen  months,  with  two  com- 
munities of  English  Poor  Clares.  In  May,  1795,  they  were  released  and 
returned  to  London;  they  reopened  a  school  at  Hammersmith  until  1863, 
when  again  a  move  was  made  to  Teignmouth,  and  before  long  the  school 
gave  place  to  the  work  of  the  Perpetual  Adoration  of  the  Blessed  Sacrament.

both  by  sickness  and  other  great  Crosses  by  w*^^  it  seemes  AUmighty 
God  preparde  her;  for  y^  great  worke  of  setling  y^  hows  of  Brussells

In  y*  yeare — 1666 — uppon  5^^  of  o6lober,  she  made  her  Jubely 
w*^  great  solemnity,  and  satisfaction  to  all.  she  had  y"  gouerned  the 
monastery  in  quallity  of  Abbess  22*"  years  and  was  still  vigorous  and 
able  in  all  respects ;  and  all  that  knoweth  her  prayeth  y^  her  life,  may 
be  long  and  happy  -- 

But  as  her  age  was  great  soe  many  years  could  not  be  ex-

*The  fig^ure  22  is  a  mistake.  She  was  made  Abbess  Sep.  11,  1652,  therefore

cheerfullness,  yet  soone  after  we  beg-an  to  find  a  great  change  in  her; 
by  a  decay  of  memory  w*^^  deturned  her  to  a  state  of  iiiocency,  for 
euen  y"  she  was  capable  of  y^  praclis  of  pyety,  so  far  as  frequently 
to  receaue  the  holy  Sacrament  of  y^  Aultar.  w'^  sighnes  of  tru  deuo- 
tion,  but  wholly  insufficient  in  all  things  of  gouernment;  and 
domesticall  aff"ayres;  all  tryalls  and  remidyes  by  phisick  for  some 
monthes  were  applyed  but  no  alteration  appearing  probable  y^ 
phisitians  declaring  ther  was  no  hopes  of  her  recouery  the  Comunity 
made  theyr  addresse  to  y^  Bishope  for  theyr  elledling  an  other 
Superiour; 

At  first  his  lor^P  seemde  vnwilling  for  any  change;  and  2"'^'y  he 
wisht  vs  only  to  take  a  Coadiutrise  but  y^  Comunity  persisting  in  y^ 
positiue  demaund  of  an  other  Superiour  his  lor^P  sent  y^  cheefe  pas- 
tor of  y^  Cathedrall  to  come  and  examine  y^  affayre,  both  by  speak- 
ing w^^  y^  Abbess  and  others,  as  he  did:  and  it  is  Strang  w^^  w^  a 
ReHgious  temper  my  lady  Eugenia  comported  her  selfe;  declaring 
how  vnworthy  she  was  to  gouerne  such  a  Comunity  of  saynts,  and 
how  much  she  desired  to  be  deposed;  and  render  it  to  a  better  hand; 
8i  y^  so  rationally  as  y®  good  priest  began  to  thinke  it  was  rather  our 
inclination,  y"  any  iust  caus  for  it  on  her  side,  but  by  degrees  finding 
a  sufficient  caus  to  prosecut  y^  matter  he  began  to  tell  vs  y*  y^  Bishope 
wold  be  w^^  vs  y^  next  morning  and  y'  he  had  appoynted  him  his 
interpretor,  speaking  some  litle  english 

This  very  much  surprizd  vs  beein  a  short  warning  and  a  positiue 
appoyntment  of  an  interpretor  w^^  was  rather  to  be  at  y^  Comunityes 
choyce;  y"  by  any  other  way  of  ordering. 

The  Religious  ciuilly  obiecting  his  not  hauing  sufficient  know- 
ledg  of  y^  language  for  that  aff"ayre  he  returned  to  my  lord  Bishope, 
to  giue  account  how  all  had  past,  and  our  refusing  him ;  uppon  y^ 
my  lord  Bishope  sent  M*^  Hobrooke  to  be  interpretor  but  his  beeing 
no  priest  or  Religious  man  soone  cut  of  y*^  pretence ;  y"  his  lordshipe 
sent  an  Irish  priest  M""  Dalton,  the  pastor  of  the  great  hospitall,  a 
freind  to  y^  Comunity  and  a  man  without  exception  for  abillily;  yet 
y^  Comunity  remaind  constant  to  y^  refusall ;  alleaging  that  they 
wold  not  quitt  theyr  priuiledg  of  making  theyr  owne  choyce,  for  no 
person  lining.  M""  Daldton  returning  to  y^  Bishope  he  sent  y^  deane 
and  4  more  of  y^  chapter  to  examin  o^  Rules  and  constitutions  to  see 
uppon  what  title  we  made  so  strong  a  plea  for  our  selus,  to  refuse;

went  to  y^  Bishope;  where  ther  was  assembled;  all  y^  greatest  Diuins

and  to  y^  may  be  added  y*  Jansenius,  y"^  was  promoted  from  bee-

from  all  publick  appearance,  and  acting,  whilst  theyr  caus  was  in

fell  out  to  be  acted,  w^*^  made  y^  Bishope  as  wee  conceaud  willing  to

satisfyed  with  it ;  and  y^  assembly  of  diuins  and  priests  all  concluded 
y^  we  had  iust  reason  to  mayntayn  our  rigbt,  and  so  y^  Deane  com- 
ming  back  brought  y^  Statutes  to  us  much  comending  y^  zeale  and

This  poynt  of  chusing  thos  that  are  to  attend  and  assist  the 
Bishope  at  visits  and  ellection  of  y^  Abbesse  .  is  of  so  great  impor-

Bishops  appoyntment ;  you  wold  hardly  find  it  restord  agayn  to  its 
former  latitude :  and  though  at  visits  it  may  seeme  rather  a  restraynt

the  freedome  all  may  haue  of  wrighting  theyr  mind  to  y^  Bishope

in  God,  and  very  exact  in  y^  observance  of  poverty.

May  My  lord  having  sayd  mass  of  the  holy  Ghost :  R"<^  father 

Simions  beeing  gon  to  gant,  we  made  use  of  no  other 
in  his  absence  in  y^  concern  but  in  w^  I  thought  fit  to  imploy  o""  Con- 
fessor, w^  was  only  in  my  owne  concern,  and  so  w"I  went  first  in  to 
my  lord  I  took  fa^'^  Confes""  ye  pryores  consult  and  procuratrix — I  told 
my  lord  though  I  knew  he  was  no  stranger  to  me  and  y^  Comunity, 
we  having  ever  held  a  free  and  oppen  way  of  dealing  w*^  his  lord^^p 
both  for  y^  spirituall  and  temporall  affayrs  of  o""  hows,  yet  duty  and 
Religion  obliging  to  thes  visits  I  desired  to  acquit  my  duty  in  w^  I 
was  obliged ; — our  family  now  is  amounted  to — 69.  persons — our 

revenew  as  y"^  lor^P  knows  is  only our  debts 

So  y*  y"^  lor^P  can  not  but  iudge  how  impossible  it  is  with  all  y^ 
industry  possible  to  keepe  w^^  in  compass;  --  as  for  y«  order  and  regu- 
larity of  y^  comunity  I  have  no  reason  to  complayn,  finding  all  so 
well  disposed  as  readily  to  admit  of  making  satisfaction  w"  they 
comit  faults,  and  as  long  as  y^  continueth  w^'^  y*  tru  union  and  charity 
w^h  nQ-^  through  God's  goodnes  flourisheth  in  y^  comunity;  I  hope 
no  great  disorders  will  ever  be  a  mongst  us.  I  y"  also  gave  my  lord 
account  of  y®  dispensations  I  and  other  superiors  some  times  gave, 
^yth  ye  reasons  for  it  and  so  went  through  all  y*  order  of  gouvern- 
ment ;  adding  --' 

That  for  all  greater  matters  I  always  made  my  recourse  to  his 
lor^P  as  occations  occurd ;  and  in  all  things  as  much  as  lay  in  me,  I 
endeavoured  to  cary  on  y^  gouernment  of  y^  monastery  as  neere  as 
possible  conformde  to  y®  Rule  and  constitutions.  '- 
w"  my  lord  and  we  had  discourst  a  while  uppon  thes  points — I  knelt 
down  and  requested  his  lord^P  considering  my  want  of  health  and 
ability  y'  he  wold  pleas  to  procure  of  y®  Comunity,  y^  ellection  of  an 
other  Superiour.  My  cheefe  reason  of  doing  y=  was  y'  in  my  great  fit 
of  sickness  I  made  a  purpose  y*  if  I  could  meet  with  a  fitt  opportunity, 
I  wold  offer  to  my  Superiour  and  y^  Comunity  y^  surrender  of  my 
place  to  on  more  worthy  of  it. 

My  lord  and  all  y^  company  seemde  surprisde  for  I  had 
May  made  no  overture  of  y^  to  any  not  y*  I  wanted  confi- 

dence or  any  free  comunication  with  my  Confessor,  but 
had  I  told  him  of  it  probably  he  wold  have  diverted  me,  and  I  was  not 
willing  to  dispute  it  w*^  any,  but  to  put  it  into  y^  full  powre  of  my 
Superiour  and  y^  Comunity,  w<=^  I  conceaud  to  be  my  best  way.  to  find 
out  y^  will  of  God  in  y^  affayre,  sincearly  desiring  and  resolving  y*  as 
it  shold  please  God  to  direct  my  Superiour  and  y®  comunity  I  wold 
submit,  and  rest  satisfyed ;  for  as  I  freely  made  offer  of  y^  dignity 
into  theyr  hands  to  dispose  of.  so  I  concluded  having  y*  power  at 
theyr  own  choyce,  they  wold  be  so  much  theyr  own  frends,  as  not 
to  stand  uppon  tearmes  whether  I  really  desird  it  or  noe;  though 
for  as  much  as  I  can  iudge,  I  did  sincearly  desir  it,  as  farr  as  I  wold 
find  or  prove  it  to  be  God's  will,  or  most  to  theyr  satisfaction;  '- 
My  lord  sayd  not  much  y"  but  only  y*  was  an  affayr  y^  wold  require 
consideration.--  w"  we  went  out  some  of  the  Religious  y*  seemd  con-

nor  did  I  pas  vv^^  out  a  check  from  good  fa""  Confessor,  but  as  I  told 
y^  I  had  acted  nothing,  but  only  put  y^  powre  into  my  Superiours

dirrect  y'",  w^^  was  to  be  my  discharg  and  theyrs,  as  well  as  our 
comfort.  <- 

The  first  day  as  I  had  tow  or  3  times  occation  to  wayt  uppon  my 
lord,  he  told  me  had  I  not  made  y*  offer  he  nor  y^  Comunity  shold 
never  haue  had  any  thought  of  such  an  accident,  but  now  they  ought 
to  consider  y^  affayr  with  much  deliberation.  <-'  I  had  some  reason 
to  think  I  might  haue  binn  set  at  liberty  till  y^  day  following,  w"  my 
lord  told  me  the  Comunity  wold  not  accept  my  resighning,  saying 
many  things  of  my  high  obligation  to  y^  Comunity,  w'^^  were  trueths 
I  was  very  well  conuinst  of,  and  of  theyr  great  vertu  in  supporting 
my  many  infirmityes  and  errores;  w"  my  lord  with  much  satisfadlion 
had  treated  aloan  with  every  on  of  the  Comunity,  his  lor^P  desird  to 
haue  y^  all  assembled  together:  my  lord  spoke  very  obligingly 

of  y^  great  comfort  and  edification  his  lor^P  had  receaued  by  making 
ys  visit  incouraging  all  to  go  one  in  y^  same  way  of  vertu  and  peace 
he  now  found  y'". 

We  all  knelt  downe  as  I  told  my  lord  to  receaue  his  fatherly  repre- 
hensions for  o*"  faults,  and  wold  not  fayle  to  comply  with  his  paternall 
admonitions,  and  obey  in  w'  so  euer  he  shold  comand  us :  his  lor^P 
speaking  very  sensibly  of  our  temporall  condition,  recommended  to 
us  frugallity  and  care  of  holy  pouerty  in  all  things ;  and  y"  in  perticu- 
ler  his  lor^P  gaue  me  to  understand,  my  high  obligation  to  y^  Comu 
nity's  kyndness  in  theyr  not  accepting  y^  surrender  of  my  office  w*^^ 
he  also  desired  I  shold  continu,  w^^  a  searious  application  to  my  duty, 
in  y^  spirit  of  sweetnes  &  charity,  yet  with  zeale  and  vigor  in  seeing 
disciplin  obserud  with  y^  Rules  and  Constitutions;  and  to  haue  a 
care  of  little  faults:  -  so  with  a  most  paternall  expression  of  honnor 
and  esteeme  for  y^  Comunity  he  gaue  us  his  Blessing  and  tooke 
leaue ;  --  his  lor^P  gaue  us  advis  to  profes  non  under  full  5000  livre. 
Now  as  I  found  my  obligations  to  y^  Comunity  redoubled  by  this  last 
favour ;  so  I  was  in  payn  for  y^  litle  abillity  I  had  to  make  my  grati-

both  of  honor  and  advauntage  to  y®  whole  town,  and  to  us  in  perticu-

his  Eminence  hath  not  fayled  since,  to  let  us  know  and  find,  by  very 
ample  eff'ects  in  all  occations  his  most  sensible  concern  for  us: 

1673. 
The  more  frequent  my  lord's  visits  were  to  us  y^  greater  esteeme  and 
concern  he  was  pleased  to  have  for  us  and  to  take  to  hart  y^  sup- 
plying of  us  with  monys  both  to  pay  debts  and  help  us  to  subsist ; 
now  as  my  lord  was  very  obliging  and  preventing  in  his  favours  to 
us,  so  was  he  much  incourraged  in  y^  perticuler  by  very  Revd  father 
Jhon  Warner,  of  y^  society  of  Jesus,  who  came  to  succeed  father 
Simions  last  yeare  may  y^  first;  ~We  tryed  all  ways  to  help  ourselves 
forourtemporall  advauntagebut  found  litle  by  any  endeavour  ether  by 
work  or  address  to  frends.  all  our  supplys  were  from  my  lord  who 
never  seemed  weary  of  releeving  his  poore  children;  we  did  not 
fayle  to  try  to  put  out  part  of  y^  portions  we  receaved,  but  with  very 
litle  fruiet,  for  generally  w'  wee  put  out  on  month  or  yeare,  we  took  in 
another:  to  help  us  to  subsist: 

his  lord^P  always  took  a  singular  content  in  clothing  and  professing 
y^  Religious,  and  w^  no  less  satisfaction  to  see  his  lor^P  do  it  w*^ 
soe  much  searious  devotion :--' 

he  still  persevered  frequently  to  visit  and  treat  with  y^  Comunity  with 
much  satisfa6lion  and  content. 

his  lor^P  had  allways  a  singular  devotion  to  y^  Feasts  and  Cerimonyes 
of  y^  church,  and  at  y^  request  both  of  y^  Cardinal  and  y®  munks,  his 
lor^P  came  down  to  officiat  at  theyr  prime  Solemnityes,  w^^  gave  us 
also  an  advauntage  of  more  frequent  visits  and  conversation  w^^  his 
lord^P  much  to  his  and  o""  content;  and  though  for  y^  most  part  w" 
we  began  to  lay  oppen  the  temporall  distresses,  he  wold  be  a  litle 
concernd  and  troubled  but  uppon  a  longer  time  of  conversation  of 
spirituall  things  with  y^  Religious  he  would  fall  into  excellent  humour 
and  on  way  or  other  give  or  send  us  some  summe  that  was  consider- 
able, to  let  us  se  how  much  he  was  satisfied  w^^  y^  advaunce  the 
Comunity  made  in  vertu,  though  theyr  temporall  condition  of  a 
smale  fortune  held  his  lor^P  still  in  care,  and  concern  for  us:  I  had 
ever  a  singular  comfort  in  y^  tru  intelligence  and  right  understand- 
ing my  lord  had,  of  myne  &  y^  Comunity's  proceedings  in  all  respects, 
w*^'^  as  it  was  still  y^  greater  evidence  of  his  lor^P  prudence;  so  it  was 
also  the  greater  proof  of  y®  union  peace  and  vertu  of  y^  holy  hows.

with  vigor  and  zeale  on  all  sides,  and  soe  did  R"'^  father  Clare;  we

THE  WILL  OF  CHRISTOPHER  STONEHOUSE 
OF  DUNSLEY  IN  THE  PARISH  OF  WHITBY,  A  NOTED 
RECUSANT.  Circa  1564-1631. 

Volume  XLI,  Folio  387  in  the  York  Registry. 

In  Volume  IV,  p.  378,  a  reference  to  this  "constant  Catholic"  is  made. 
Since  then  I  have  been  able  to  procure  a  copy  of  his  will.  In  The  Northern 
Genealogist,  iii,  50-3,  I  ventured  to  assert  that  "Andreas  Stonas,"  born 
at  "  Easbrow,"  or  "  Eastbrow,"  which  Foley  took  to  be  Andrew  "  Stone'' ^ 
and  ''  Easby,^^  must  be  the  priest  brother  of  Anne  and  Mary  Stonehouse, 
lay  sisters  at  St  Monica's  Augustinian  house  at  Louvain,  and  born  at  the 
hamlet  of  East  Row  in  Dunsley  in  the  parish  of  Whitby,  three  miles  from 
the  town  of  Whitby,  and  son  of  Christopher  Stonehouse,  whom  Foley  3|c  refers 
to  under  the  spelling  of  Stayanus  and  Stayhouse  (ill,  755-8,  MS.  of  Father 
Christopher  Grene,  S.J.)  as  being  arrested  late  in  December,  1591,  for 
recusancy,  and  escaping  from  York  Castle  with  Francis  Younge  on  August 
23.  1593,  after  one  imprisonment  of  twenty  months.  His  son  Andrew,  born 
1597,  seminary  priest  1621,  a  Jesuit  1634,  was  also  a  prisoner  in  York 
Castle  in  March,  1657-8,  to  September,  1660,  under  the  name  of  John  Fair- 
fax, and  is  supposed  to  have  died  in  1664.  Other  aliases  of  his  were  John 
Cuthbert,  John  Stone  and  Andrew  Town. 

The  conjunction  of  Christian  and  family  names  frequently  is  worthy 
of  note,  as  seen  in  the  Index  of  wills  and  administrations  ( Yorks,  Archceol. 
Soc.  Rec,  Series): 

1588  Stanus,  Christopher.  Barmby,  Cleveland.  Adm. 

1592  Staynas,  Christopher,  Myton  on  Swale.  Adm. 

1597  Stones  [?],  Christopher,  York.  Adm. 

1616  Stanous,  Christofer,  Lythe,  yeoman.  Prob.  8  Sept.  1617. 

1616  Stonas,  Christofer,  Whitby,  burgess.  Prob.  20  Mar.  1616. 

1613  Stonas,  Christopher,  Dunslay.  Prob.  9  May.  1633. 
And  the  one  here  given.  The  sirname  was  and  is  common  throughout 
Cleveland. 

This  undated  will  tends  to  show  that  the  Testator  survived  until  the 
year  1631,  that  he  had  two  properties  in  Dunsley,  one  being  in  East  Row, 
where  Father  Andrew  Stonehouse  must  have  been  born,  and  that  he  had 
a  son  named  Joseph,  whose  connexion  did  not  appear  before.  "Joseph 
Stonehouse  of  Egton  Chapelry,  labourer,"  appears  in  the  Recusant  lists  for 
1632  and  1633,  and  Joseph  Stonas,  with  Alice  his  wife,  of  Newholme-cum- 
Dunsley,  in  1641.  It  shows,  also,  that  besides  being  a  worker  in  jet 
(jeater^)  and  amber,  that  the  testator  was  a  farmer  of  land,  probably  not 
freehold,  but  copyhold  or  tenant-right. 

Andrew  and  Anne  are  not  mentioned,  as  both  were  in  religion  abroad, 
the  latter  at  Louvain,  where  Mary  must  have  gone  shortly  after  settling 
her  father's  affairs.  J.S.H. 

if.  Foley  might  well  be  ignorant  of  the  connexion  of  father  and  son  with 
such  extraordinary  spellings,  due  to  broad  Yorkshire  pronunciation,  not  Latin 
as  he  imagined. 

^  The  late  Canon  Atkinson  (iV.  Riding  Rec,  li,  67)  contended  thafjeater" 
meant  a  "jet-digger  or  miner,"  in  spite  of  the  same  people,  on  pages  70  and 
140,  being  called  "jeaters"  and  ^^]eaX-workers":  but  the  Annals  of  St  Monica's, 
I,  187,  conclusively  disprove  his  philological  conjecture.  The  Middlesex  Recu- 
sant lists,  1629-37,  describe  the  sons,  Cuthbert  and  Thomas,  as  "yeomen," 
whilst  the  first  is  described  once  as  a  "  jeweller."  Query  a  lapidary.

*'Probate  granted  on  28'^  April  1631  to  Christopher  Stonehouse 
and  Mary  Stonehouse  the  sole  Executors  named  in  the  Will." 

*  They  are  described  as  secretly  married  in  Peacock's  List  of  1604.  She 
was  the  second  wife  and  the  maiden  name  is  unknown.  The  first  was  Frances 
Smith,  possibly  of  the  Egton  family. 

if  Probably  the  only  child  by  the  second  marriage. 

§  Henry  Fairfax  must  be  absolutely  one  of  the  family  of  Walton  and  Gilling. 
In  1604  (Peacock's  Yorks.  Caths)  he  and  his  unnamed  wife  are  described  as 
"  Recusantes  old"  and  "secretly  marryed,"  whilst  Ralph  Fairfax  is  a  Recusant 
since  March  25,  1603.  Under  Acaster-Malbys  we  read:  *'  Raulf  ffairfax  gentle- 
man who  dwelleth  at  Dimsley  [sic]  &  sometimes  resorting  into  ye  said  parish 
to  ye  house  of  Cuthbert  ffairfax  for  a  fortneth  together  or  there  aboutes  &  cometh 
not  to  ye  church."  Cuthbert  Fairfax,  whose  daughter  Mary  was  then  a  Recu- 
sant, was  grandfather  of  Thomas  F.,  who  begged  to  compound  for  an  estate  at 
Dunsley  worth  £&:>  rental  on  July  4,  1646,  and  who  declared  his  pedigree  at  the 
visitation  on  March  22,  1665,  as  of  Dunsley,  aged  sixty  {Surtees,  xxxvi). 

The  Recusants  of  Newholme-cum-Dunsley  indi«fled  July  8,  1614,  contain 
**  Henry  Fairfax,  gent"  50,  and  Edith  his  wife  about  30,  both  Rec*  14  years"; 
"Will.  Cooke,  jeater,  and  Jane  his  wife,  both  about  40  (R.  20)";  "  Chr.  Stonas, 
jeater,  50,  and  Ursula  his  wife,  47,  both  Rec^  20  years  with  Tho.  and  Cuthbert 
his  sons,  both  20  (R.  3)"  (iV.  Riding.  Rec.  il,  70). 

The  following  few  extracts  are  from  the  very  imperfed;  original  Registers 
of  Whitby:  (Francis  s.  of  Henry  Farfax  was  bapt.  at  Egton  25  Nov.  1645.)

The  will  of  Sir  Nicholas  Fairfax  of  Walton  and  Gilling,  of  7  July,  1570, 
proved  30  Oct.  1572,  he  having  died  30  March,  1571  {Yorks.  Archceol.  Jour. 
XIX,  188),  contemplates  the  possible  contingency  of  his  two  eldest  sons.  Sir  Wil- 
liam and  Nicholas,  dying  without  issue,  and  leaves  the  remainder  of  his  great 
estate  to  Henry  the  son  of  his  third  son  George,  to  whom  he  bequeaths  only 
;{J20,  and  who  had  married  Frances,  daughter  of  Sir  Francis  Salvin  of  Thorpe- 
Salvin  and  Neivhiggin  in  Egton.  The  will  entrusts  the  education  of  the  grandson 
to  Cuthbert,  the  seventh  of  eight  sons,  but  later  on  to  the  eldest  son  during  his 
life.  Henry  Fairfax,  the  Recusant,  if  fifty  in  1614,  would  be  six  when  the  will 
was  made. 

IT  Christopher  is  said  to  have  converted  his  master,  and,  after  the  latter's 
death,  to  have  taught  the  son  the  trade.  He  is  probably  this  witness,  a  jet-worker 
and  Recusant,  said  to  be  aged  forty  in  1 614,  or  ten  years  younger  than  Christopher.

A  LIST  OF  CONVICTED  RECUSANTS  IN  THE  REIGN  OF 

CHARLES  II. 

British  Museum,  Additional  MS,  20739 

This  collection  of  the  names  of  Recusants  from  schedules  of  the  Pipe 
Rolls  for  specified  years,  a  portly  volume,  bound  in  red  gilt  leather, 
needs  no  description,  as  it  is  not  an  original  document,  being  only  a  copy 
of  returns  from  parts  of  England  made  by  the  clerks  of  the  peace  in  their 
respective  administrative  areas.  There  are  many  blanks. 

When  attention  was  first  called  to  it,  it  was  understood  to  cover  the  whole 
of  England.  This  is  clearly  shown  in  the  preamble  not  to  be  so.  But  there 
are  other  lists,  which  the  Society  will  be  able  to  print  later,  covering  the 
whole  of  England  and  Wales  at  different  periods. 

The  returns  for  Lancashire  are  the  amplest,  containing  more  than  half  of 
the  whole.  No  one  more  competent  to  deal  with  these  exists  than  Mr  Gillow, 
our  Recorder,  who  has  annotated  a  large  number  from  the  garner  of  his 
vast  researches  of  over  thirty  years.  Catholic  Lancashire  is  fortunate  in 
having  such  an  historian  amongst  its  natives.  As  regards  the  rest  it  has  not 
been  easy  to  know  where  to  turn  to  for  help,  and  it  is  better  to  leave  blanks 
than  do  the  work  badly.  The  loss  of  the  Lancashire  notes  might  be  irrepar- 
able. At  the  same  time  annotating  is  in  no  sense  necessary,  our  great  object 
being  to  save  records  from  oblivion.  The  present  writer  has  ventured  to  add 
a  few  notes,  and  is  indebted  to  a  few  persons  for  information  about  their 
families.  Yorkshire's  part,  although  the  second  longest,  is  disappointing. 
The  City  of  York  and  the  North  Riding  are  not  mentioned;  but  some  places 
in  the  latter  and  the  West  Riding  are  misplaced  under  the  East  Riding. 
These  defects  are  emphasized  when  we  turn  to  Hist.  MSS  Comfnissioner^ s 
ninth  Re;port,  Part  I,  and  find  a  list  of  one  thousand  seven  hundred  and 
fifty-five  North  Riding  Recusants  presented  atThirskon  February  24,  1690. 
Other  counties  seem  inadequately  dealt  with. 

The  preamble  of  the  paper  is  so  explicit  that  comment  is  unnecessary; 
but  it  is  interesting  to  see  the  distinction  drawn  between  "Papists"  and 
"fanaticks"  by  men  of  affairs  at  the  time. 

It  has  been  necessary  to  curtail  the  work.  No  useful  purpose  could  be 
served  by  repeating  the  convictions,  names  of  places  (sometimes  repeated 
to  each  person),  amounts  of  fines,  etc.,  some  of  which  had  previously  been 
abbreviated.  The  original  sequence  has  been  kept,  although  inconvenient 
when  the  names  of  places  are  repeated  at  intervals  or  for  repeated  convic- 
tions. They  are  here  transposed  above  the  names  of  the  persons.  Corrections 
are  made  by  footnotes  and  in  square  brackets.  The  object  is  to  obtain  the 
names  of  the  Catholics,  occupation,  status  and  residence  with  dates,  in  the 
simplest  form  for  ready  reference.  The  fine  was  uniformly  ;^2o  per  mensem 
for  each  adult,  except  one  half  for  a  wife ;  but  in  some  entries,  notably  in 
the  York  shire  part,  ;^20  is  wrongly  put  down  as  their  fine.  It  will  be  seen 
that  twelve  calendar  months  are  computed  instead  of  thirteen  lunar  months. 

As  a  dry,  statistical,  sordid  exchequer  document  prepared  for  financial 
purposes,  it  lacks  much  of  the  interest  contained  m  local  ones,  such  as 
Peacock's  Yorkshire  Catholics,  1604,  and  the  Masham  Recusants  {Cath. 
Rec.  Soc.y  III,  82).  But  such  information  must  be  important  to  genealogists; 
and,  above  all,  it  saves  from  oblivion  the  names  of  those  who  dared  all  things 
for  the  one  Faith  and  conscience.  J.  S.  H.

In  these  23  Counties  and  Cities  wherein  any  Convi6lions  are  certifyd 
into  the  Exchequer  it  may  be  observed 

I.  That  none  of  the  Nobility  are  here  mentioned  except  Geo  Earl  of 
Bristoll  *  in  Middx  whose  Convi6lion  hath  been  once  legally  dis- 
charged by  a  plea  of  conformity 

2  Very  few  of  the  considerable  gentry  in  England  it  being  very  rare 
throughout  all  this  book  to  meet  with  the  addition  of  Knight  or 
Esquire 

3  It  is  not  certain  by  this  book  that  all  the  Recusants  here  men- 
tioned are  Papists,  tis  probable  many  of  them  are  fanaticks 

4  Tis  more  than  probable  that  the  number  of  Recusants  in  those 
Countys  from  whence  no  convi6lions  are  certifyd  may  at  least  equall 
if  not  exceed  the  Number  certifyd 

5  The  same  names  are  many  times  repeated  in  severall  places  and 
probably  may  be  the  same  persons 

6  Seeing  by  law  the  penalty  of  20^'  a  month  runs  on  for  ever  after 
the  first  convi6lion  till  conformity,  it  may  be  worth  the  labour  to  com- 
pute how  much  money  the  convi6lions  certifyd  do  amount  to  as 
they  now  stand  upon  Record,  and  from  thence  wee  may  reasonably 
conclude  that  there  is  more  than  Twenty  times  so  much  due  to  the 
King  few  convi6lions  being  less  than  2  yeres  old,  most  of  three,  four 
or  five  yeres  standing  or  more

So  that  by  this  Computation  there  should  be  no  less  coming  to  the 
King  than  between  4  and  5  millions  from  the  Convidlions  of  23 
Countyes. 

Which  is  more  then  all  the  Recusants  Nobility  and  Gentry  in  Eng- 
3|s  Viscount  Dunbar  and  Baron  Langdale  are  named.

land  are  worth  all  together  And  yet  none  of  the  Nobility  and  very  few 

of  the  Gentry  are  here  mentioned 

In  those  Countyes  where  I  have  been  able  to  make  enquiry  as  in 

Yorkshire  the  persons  are  unknown  or  so  poor  they  are  scarce  worth 

the  penalty  of  one  20^'  much  less  responsible  for  the  growing  penaltys 

of  2  or  3  yeres 

In  Suffolk  there  are  pirsons  of  Quality  but  such  as  either  in  person 

or  their  fathers  did  eminently  service  for  the  King 

I  have  had  no  opportunity  to  inform  myself  in  other  countyes  nor 

could  the  Clarks  tell  me  the  names  of  the  severall  Informers  at  whose 

prosecution  the  partyes  were  convi6led  so  I  can  give  no  charadler 

of  their  persons,  fortunes  or  merits 

Upon  the  whole  matter,  without  question,  a  considerable  summe 

might  be  raise  by  putting  these  laws  in  execution 

But  what  disorder  it  might  produce  in  his  Majesties  affairs  is  worthy 

consideration

'  In  the  Non-jurors  1715  is  probably  his  widow:  "  Elizabeth  Martin,  of 
Woose  Hill,  in  the  parish  of  Wokingham,  widow  of  Anthony  Martin — House  as 
her  jointure."  And  this  for  a  husbandman! 

*  Possibly  one  of  the  Yate  family,  long  settled  in  the  county,  whose  pro- 
perty at  Buckland  passed  on  the  death  of  Sir  Charles  Yate,  Bart,  in  1728  to  his 
daughter  and  heir,  Mary,  wife  of  Sir  Robert  Throckmorton,  3rd  bart,  and 
continued  till  lately  in  that  family.  The  name  may  be  held  to  come  from  the 
parish  of  Yate  in  Gloucestershire,  in  spite  of  the  canting  arms  of  three  gates, 
yates  or  yats.  It  may  be  doubted  whether  Jane,  sister  of  Sir  Benjamin  Tich- 
bome,  ist  bart,  who  married  Francis  Yate  of  Lyford,  could  be  alive  in  1667. 

^  Mrs  J.  Hautenville  Cope  says  that  in  1698  Richard  Bay  ley  of  Pang- 
bourne  and  his  sons  Thomas  and  William  held  lands  on  the  north  side  of  the 
Kennet  in  Sulhamstead-Banister.  See  p.  83  also. 

*  Mr  Gillow  suggests  that  this  was  Mervin  Touchet,  third  son  of  Mervin, 
twelfth  Baron  Audley,  and  second  Earl  of  Castlehavejji,  who  succeeded  to  those 
titles  in  1684.

1  "  John  Smarbone  "  as  he  signs  his  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  1623,  shows 
his  descent  from  the  Smalebones  of  Steventon,  Berks,  his  mother  being  Eliza- 
beth daughter  of  Robert  Fettiplace  of  Buckland.  He  married  Dorothy  daughter 
of  William  MoUnes  of  Mongewell,  Oxon,  and  had  a  son  John  aged  eight  in  1623. 

2  Perhaps  a  mistake  for  "  John."  At  the  Visitation  of  1665  Mary,  dau.  of 
Francis  Perkins  of  Ufton  and  his  wife,  Margaret  Eyston,  is  called  wife  of  John 
Hyde,  of  Hyde  End  in  the  parish  of  Brimpton,  and  in  the  Non-jurors  1715, 
Mary,  widow  of  John  Hyde,  and  their  sons,  John  and  Francis,  are  mentioned. 

3  At  the  Visitation  of  1665  "  William  Turbill  alias  Turbervill,"  whose  name 
does  not  even  appear  in  the  pedigree  (but  who  may  be  the  same  who  claimed 
descent,  at  the  same  Visitation,  from  his  grandfather  William  Turberville  of 
Cirencester,  and  used  the  family  arms  undefaced.  [Harl.  Soc.  Ivi]),  "  certified 
on  the  behalf  of  Anthony  Turbervill,  Esq'","  who  was  of  Penllina  Castle, 
CO.  Glamorgan,  and  Bradley  in  Cookham,  a  pedigree  deducing  from  his 
great-grandfather,  Christopher  T.,  of  Penlline,  Glamorgan,  and  so  on,  up  to  the 
Conquest  by  other  pedigrees.  His  grandparents'  names  are  given  as  Jenkin  T. 
and  CeciUa,  dau.  of  Matthew  Herbert  of  Swansea,  instead  of  Jenkin  T.  and 
a  dau.  of  Rees  ap  Rees,  as  by  Burke  {Commoners,  iv,  653).  The  Turber- 
ville arms  quarter  2  Jastin  ap  Gurgant,  3  Norreys  or  Norris  of  Speke,  not 
Penlline,  4.  ,  and  over  all  a  bend  sinister.  Anthony's  wife 
is  given  as  Mary,  dau.  and  heir  of  John  Farmer  of  Bradley,  Cookham,  which 
accounts  for  his  presence  in  Berkshire.  It  is  their  son  John,  aged  thirty-two  in 
1665.  He  married  Anne,  dau.  of  Christopher  Anderton  of  Lostock,  Lanes.  Their 
three  sons,  Christopher,  Anthony  and  John,  are  named. 

*  The  Englefields  took  their  name  from  the  place  in  the  county  near  Read- 
ing, and  were  consequently  very  ancient.  The  baronetcy  expired  in  1812,  the 
last  baronet  being  a  Catholic  of  distinction  (See  Gillow's  Diet.  Eng.  Caths; 
Burke's  Extinct  Baronetage;  Harl.  Soc.  lvi). 

^  The  Fettiplace  family  acquired  the  manor  of  Denchworth  about  the 
reign  of  Henry  III,  and  continued  in  the  county. 

^  Son  of  WiUiam  Eyston  of  East  Hendred,  by  Eleanor,  dau.  of  George 
Smith  of  Eshe,  co.  Durham.  Born  1636;  married  16  Feb.,  1663-4,  Anne,  dau.  of 
Robert  Dormer,  of  Peterley  in  Great  Missenden,  Bucks,  and  certified  the  family 
pedigree  in  1664.  He  was  made  J. P.  in  1688,  died  24  April,  1691,  and  was 
buried  at  E.  Hendred.  An  old  family. MS.  says:  "  He  was  a  great  sufferer  on  the 
score  of  Religion,  was  imprisoned  and  sequestered  in  the  time  of  Gates' s  Plot 
and  paid  80  pounds  for  Latmer  [a  manor]  alone  then  valued  at  120  pound  per 
annum."  The  family  inherited  the  estate  about  1443,  and  still  flourishes  there, 
consistently  Catholic.

2  The  Napiers  were  a  Scotch  family  settled  In  Dorset  and  connected  by  mar- 
riag-e  with  the  Russclls  of  Swyre.  George  Napier,  priest  and  martyr,  was  of  this 
family,  being  of  the  Oxford  branch  (see  C.R.S.  I,  123).  In  the  Visitation  of  Dor- 
setshire, 1623,  Arundell  Napier  is  shown  as  the  seventh  son  of  Robert  N.  of 
Bexington  in  the  parish  of  Abbotsbury,  by  Katharine  daughter  of  Edward  War- 
ham  of  Osmington.  He  must  have  been  quite  an  infant  then,  as  his  eldest  brother 
was  only  sixteen.  ^  Owermoigne,  near  Bridport. 

^Brentwood  is  probably  meant;  but  manorial,  and  perhaps  other  courts, 
used  to  be  held  in  the  hunting  Lodge  at  Chingford,  where  Bury  Wood  is.

Chapter,  and  V.G.  in  Lancashire,  who  died  at  the  Old  Hall,  2  Feb.,  1670-1,  when

Several  secular  priests,  Jesuits,  and  nuns  came  of  this  family,  the  late  Rt  Rev. 
James  Chadwick,  bishop  of  Hexham  and  Newcastle,  being  one  of  its  most  dis- 
tinguished ornaments. 

3  The  Gradells  of  Barbies  Moor  in  Ulnes  Walton  were  an  ancient  family,  and 
remained  staunch  to  the  faith  until  they  became  extinct  in  the  direct  male  line 
upon  the  death  of  the  Rev.  Christopher  Gradwell  at  Shefi&eld  in  1758.  There  were 
several  priests  of  the  family,  and  from  a  very  remote  offshoot  derived  Bishop 
Robert  Gradwell  and  his  nephews  the  Rev.  George  Gradwell  and  the  late  Mgr 
Robert  Gradwell  of  Claughton.  The  wife  of  William  Gradwell  mentioned  above 
was  Eliz.,  dau.  of  John  Butler,  of  Kirkland  Hall.  There  was  a  chapel  and 
priest's  hiding-place  in  the  house  at  Barbies  Moor,  which  is  now  a  farmhouse 
known  as  Gradwell's. 

^  Eldest  son  of  William  Anderton,  of  Anderton  Hall,  by  Magdalen,  dau.  of 
Thomas  Lacon,  of  Lindley,  co.  Salop,  and  his  third  brother  Roger  and  his 
sisters  Mary  and  Grace.  His  next  brother,  Peter  Anderton,  of  London,  citizen  and 
dyer,  joined  with  Roger  in  the  sale  of  the  estate  for  the  sum  of  ;^2,8oo,  on 
7  April,  1668,  to  their  distant  relative,  Francis  Anderton,  of  Lostock  Hall,  sub- 
sequently created  a  baronet.  It  comprised  the  hall  and  manor  of  Anderton. 
Soon  afterwards,  in  the  same  year,  Roger  fell  dead  from  his  horse  whilst  riding 
from  Ormskirk  races. 

^The  Nelsons  of  Mawdesley  and  of  Fairhurst  Hall  in  Wrightington  returned 
very  imperfect  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of  1613  and  1664.  At  this  time  there 
were  two  branches  of  the  family,  one  residing  at  Mawdesley  and  the  other  at 
Fairhurst,  the  rather  distinctive  name  of  Maximilian  being  common  to  both. 
Several  members  of  both  families  became  Benedictine  monks.  There  was  a  chapel 
in  Fairhurst  Hall  which  was  regularly  served  till  the  beginning  of  the  nineteenth 
century.  They  were  allied  to  many  of  the  most  ancient  Catholic  families  of  the 
county.

1  A  junior  branch  of  the  Heskeths  of  RufFord  Hall.  She  was  probably  the 
mother  of  Dom  Thomas  Hesketh,  O.S.B.,  bom  at  Mawdesley  in  1655. 

2  The  Harsnepps  (Haresnape)  appear  in  the  rolls  from  the  time  of  Eliz., 
and  two  of  them  became  Benedictines  in  the  eighteenth  century. 

3  The  Dicconsons  were  at  this  time  represented  by  Hugh  Dicconson,  of 
Wrightington  Hall,  a  county  justice,  whose  grandfather,  Edward  Dicconson, 
of  Eccleston  and  Dicconson  in  Coppull,  brought  Wrightington  into  the  family 
through  his  marriage  with  the  dau.  and  heiress  of  John  Wrightington.  Bishop 
Edward  Dicconson,  V.A. — N.D.,  third  son  of  the  above  Hugh,  was  born  at 
Wrightington  Hall  in  1670.  There  was  a  chapel  in  the  hall,  which  is  now  occu- 
pied by  the  representative  of  the  family,  who  has  assumed  the  name  of  Diccon- 
son, and  the  mission  is  still  in  existence, 

*  The  ancient  residence  of  this  staunch  family  is  still  held  by  them,  and 
the  old  chapel  and  priest's  hiding-place,  containing  the  skull  of  the  martyred 
priest,  George  Hay  dock,  may  yet  be  seen.  Father  James  Bruno  Finch,  the  last 
of  the  English  Carthusians,  was  the  grandson  of  Thomas  Finch,  of  Mawdesley, 
and  his  wife  Mary,  dau.  of  Wm  Haydock,  of  Cottam  Hall,  by  Jane,  dau,  of 
Hugh  Anderton,  of  Euxton  Hall.  He  was  admitted  into  Douay  College  in  1761, 
and  after  the  dissolution  of  the  monastery  at  Nieuport  found  shelter  for  a 
time  under  the  roof  of  the  Augustinian  convent  of  St  Monica  at  Lou  vain, 
whence  he  came  to  England,  and  died  at  Fernyhalgh,  Lancashire,  in  182 1.  John 
ffinch,  the  layman  martyred  at  Lancaster  in  1584,  was  a  member  of  the 
family. 

^  Laurence  was  the  favourite  family  name  of  the  Worthingtons  of  Craw- 
shaw  Hall  in  Adlington,  who  were  intermarried  with  some  good  Catholic 
famihes,  and  some  of  them  appear  in  the  recusant  rolls.  Lau.  Worthington,  of 
Crawshaw,  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1665. 

'  Thomas  Nelson,  of  Fairhurst  Hall,  was  son  of  Capt.  Maxey  Nelson,  of  the 
same  (by  Ellen,  dau.  of  Wm  Travers,  of  Nateby  Hall) ,  who  was  slain  in  the  royal 
cause  at  Marston  Moor  in  1644.  Thomas  Nelson  married,  first,  Bridget,  dau.

Anne,  dau.  of  Thomas  Hesketh,  of  ilajmes  Hall,  by  whom  he  had  seven  sons 
(besides  two  daughters),  of  whom  Richard,  the  third,  named  in  the  text,  was 
professed  a  Benedictine  at  Paris  in  1679,  and  two  others,  Mamns  and  Anselm, 
were  professed  there  in  16S1  and  1683  respectively.  The  eldest  son,  Maximilian 
Nelson,  succeeded  to  the  estate.  Eventually  Fairhurst  passed  under  the  will  of 
his  unde,  another  Maximilian  Nelson,  in  1764,  to  James  Nelson  Assheton,  son 
of  John  Assheton,  and  ultimately  was  transferred  through{  an  heiress  to  the 
Riddells  of  Cheesebum  Grange,  by  whom  it  was  sold.  The  last  resident  chaplain 
was  Father  William  Hyacin^  Houghton,  O.P.,  who  died  at  Fairhurst  Hall  in 
1823,  aged  eighty-six.  The  estate  now  belongs  to  the  Cathohc  family  of 
Ainscough. 

^  Laurence  Vaux,  or  Vause,  as  the  name  was  generally  spjelt,  the  last 
Cathohc  warden  of  the  collegiate  church  of  Manchester,  was  of  this  stock.  He 
was  bom  at  Blackrod,  where  the  family  mostly  resided.  He  died  of  starvation, 
a  confessor  of  the  faith,  in  the  Clink  prison,  in  1585.  He  was  at  one  time  shel- 
tered by  Edw.  Standish,  of  Stand  ish  HaU,  with  whom  he  is  said  to  have  de- 
posited his  books,  as  well  as  some  of  the  Manchester  church  plate  and  vestments. 
The  Vause  family  appear  in  the  recusant  rolls  throughout  their  continuance.

^  Anne,  dau.  of  William  Blundell,  of  Crosby  Hall,  mar.  Thomas  Gilli- 
brand,  of  Lower  Chorley  Hall,  subsequently  known  as  Gillibrand  Hall.  This 
ancient  Catholic  family  ended  in  an  heiress,  Jane  Gillibrand,  who  married  John 
Hawarden,  of  Lower  House,  in  Widnes,  of  another  very  eminent  Catholic 
family,  whose  son,  Thomas,  assumed  the  name  of  Gillibrand.  The  latter's 
grandson,  Henry  Hawarden  Gillibrand,  in  his  infancy,  in  1814,  took  the  name 
of  Fazakerley,  agreeable  to  the  will  of  Samuel  Hawarden  Fazakerley,  of 
Fazakerley.  Henry's  father,  Thomas  Gillibrand,  quarrelled  with  the  priest  on 
account  of  his  refusal  to  allow  him  to  smoke  a  long  clay  pipe,  or  churchwarden, 
whilst  sitting  in  the  family  pew  at  chapel,  and  in  consequence  let  his  family 
wander  off  to  the  Protestant  church,  though  he  himself  did  not  apostatize. 
Upon  his  death-bed  he  begged  to  be  reconciled  to  the  Church  and  requested  his 
family  to  send  for  the  priest,  but  instead  they  brought  him  the  parson,  and  the 
poor  man  died  in  great  distress.  His  grandson,  a  second  Henry  Hawarden 
Gilhbrand  Fazakerley,  came  to  an  untimely  end,  and  the  extensive  estates 
passed  to  his  three  sisters  and  coheiresses,  one  of  whom  married  Joscelyn 
Fazakerley  Tate  Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall,  and  are  now  entirely  dispersed. 

2  Bridget  Chorley,  baptized  at  Chorley,  25  Oct.,  1597,  was  one  of  the 
daughters  of  Wm  Chorley,  of  Chorley  Hall,  lord  of  that  manor,  by  Elizabeth, 
dau.  of  John  Crosse,  of  Crosse  Hall,  and  died  at  Chorley  in  1675.  This  family 
remained  staunch  to  the  very  last,  being  literally  stamped  out  by  its  sufferings 
for  the  faith  and  by  its  unfortunate  adherence  to  the  Stuarts.  Richard  Chorley, 
of  Chorley  Hall,  was  executed  at  Preston  for  taking  part  in  the  Rising  of  1 715; 
his  son  Charles  was  also  condemned  to  death  for  the  same  cause,  but  died  in 
prison  at  Liverpool,  8  March,  1715-6;  another  son,  Richard,  had  his  estates  for- 
feited, and  died  s.p.;  and  two  others,  Dom  John  Edward  Chorley,  O.S.B.,  and 
Father  Thomas  Chorley,  S.J.,  both  came  to  untimely  deaths  caused  by  these 
troubles  in  171 8. 

^  The  Tootells  of  Lower  Healey  Hall,  Chorley,  allied  to  many  leading 
county  families,  were  distinguished  for  their  adherence  to  the  faith.  Oliver  and 
Hugh  were  favourite  family  names.  The  most  notable  amongst  the  priests  of 
the  family  were  the  Rev.  Hugh  Tootell  alias  Hesketh,  otherwise  known  as 
Charles  Dodd,  the  church  historian.  He  was  nephew  of  the  Rev.  Christopher 
Tootell  alias  Blacoe,  dean  of  Amounderness  and  grand- vicar  for  Lancashire,  etc.

Thomas  Worthington,^  gen.  Will'us  Worthington 

Eduardus  Archard  Jacobus  Buller 

1  Thomas  Worthington  was  a  younger  son  of  Thomas  Worthington,  of 
Blainscow  Hall,  in  Coppull,  by  Mary,  dau.  of  George  Allen,  of  Rossall  Grange, 
brother  of  Cardinal  Allen.  He  died  in  1679,  and  his  widow  in  1685.  His  nephew, 
Thos  Worthington,  of  Blainscow,  the  squire  at  this  period,  was  probably  abroad. 
The  family  was  descended  from  the  Worthingtons,  of  Worthington,  and 
acquired  Blainscow  with  the  heiress  of  Adam  Blainscow.  They  were  always 
staunch  to  the  faith,  for  which  they  suffered  extremely,  both  by  fine  and  im- 
prisonment, and  finally  came  to  an  end  about  the  middle  of  the  eighteenth  cen- 
tury. They  gave  many  priests  and  nuns  to  the  Church. 

2  Thomas  Worthington,  of  Worthington  Hall,  a  wood  and  plaster  build- 
ing erected  by  Edward  Worthington  in  1577,  was  son  of  Wm  Worthington,  of 
the  same,  who  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  being  then  of  the 
age  of  sixty-five.  Thomas  Worthington  died  in  1670,  shortly  after  which  the 
estate  seems  to  have  passed  from  the  family.

1  The  name  Critchley,  Critchlow,  Croitchley,  Crouchley,  Chrichlow, 
Chricklow,  Churchloe,  etc.,  may  be  found  spelt  in  as  many  different  forms  as 
that  of  Shakespeare.  The  family  annually  appears  in  the  recusant  rolls  from 
beginning  to  end.  At  one  time  it  enjoyed  a  good  position.  Oliver  Chrichlow, 
born  about  1607,  son  of  Ralph  Chrichlow,  sen.,  of  Clayton,  and  Cath.  Tootell, 
his  wife,  was  thrown  into  the  Tower  of  London  whilst  proceeding  to  Douay 
College  in  1624  with  his  brother  William.  Another  brother,  Richard,  was  also 
captured  on  the  Thames,  and  was  imprisoned  by  the  Archbishop  of  Canterbury. 
All  three  were  subsequently  ordained  priests  at  the  English  College  at  Rome, 
and  used  the  alias  of  Foster.  Oliver  eventually  became  chaplain  to  the  Ander- 
tons  at  Clayton  Hall,  where  he  died  and  was  buried  at  Leyland,  29  Augt,  1671. 
One  of  them  about  this  time  married  a  Hoghton,  of  Hoghton  Tower,  and 
obtained  Clock  House,  Lea,  where  they  resided  till  the  early  part  of  the  nine- 
teenth century. 

2  Her  family  probably  resided  here.  Her  husband,  Ralph  ffidler,  resided  at 
ffidlers,  in  Sidgreaves  Lane,  Lea,  where  his  descendants  continued  till  1827. 
They  were  intermarried  with  the  Halls,  Haydocks,  Postlethwaites,  Carters, 
and  other  good  Catholic  families,  of  whom  came  many  priests. 

3  An  old  recusant  family.  Dom  William  Dunstan  Garstang,  O.S.B.,  was 
bom  at  Brindle  in  1736  and  died  in  1814.  Rev.  Robert  Garstang,  who  died  in 
1869,  was  of  the  same  family. 

*  The  Gerards,  of  St  Helen's  Well,  Brindle,  were  a  branch  of  the  Gerards, 
of  Bryn,  now  represented  by  Lord  Gerard.  One  of  them  was  ancestor  of  Henry 
Gerard,  of  Bamfurlong  Hall,  who  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664. 
Early  in  the  seventeenth  century  the  Brindle  Gerards  obtained  property  at 
Haighton,  their  residence  being  subsequently  known  as  Gerard's  Hall,  and 
finaUy  as  Haighton  House.  The  last  of  this  branch  was  a  nun  at  Taunton,  her 
brother,  Evan  John  Gerard,  having  died  unmarried  in  1832,  aged  twenty-eight. 
His  grandfather  and  namesake  married  secondly  the  widow  of  Henry  Roper, 
tenth  Baron  Teynham.  Haighton  was  then  purchased  by  James  Francis 
Anderton,  whose  son  Wilfrid  is  the  present  owner.  Some  of  the  Gerards  con- 
tinued to  reside  at  St  Helen's  Well,  where  Mass  was  said  by  Father  John 
Penketh  alias  Birkett,  S.J.,  in  1669  and  subsequent  years.  They  retained  the 
faith,  but  gradually  descended  in  the  social  scale,  and  the  name  is  still  common 
in  Brindle. 

5  The  Abbotts  of  Brindle  were  recusants  throughout  penal  times,  and  in 
the  nineteenth  century  gave  several  priests  to  the  Church.

2  The  Jumps  were  recusants  at  Hesketh  cum  Becconsall  from  the  reign  of 
Elizabeth,  and  have  always  retained  the  faith.  Dom  Harry  Gilbert  Jump,  prior 
of  Sheen  Anglorum  at  Nieuport,  who  died  in  1774,  was  a  member  of  this  family. 
He  was  bom  i  Aug.,  1712,  admitted  into  Douay  College,  14  June,  1730,  left  on

from  the  Banastres  or  Banisters  of  Bank  Hall,  now  represented  by  Lord  Lilford. 
Adam  and  Henry  were  names  common  to  both  families.  There  were  several

turned at  the  Visitation  of  1664.  He  died  at  Withnell,  and  was  buried  at  Brindle, 
23  Mch,  1698.  His  dau.  Elizabeth  was  bur.  26  Jan,,  1693.

dau.  of  Richard  Ashton,  of  Croston  Hall,  was  bom  in  1634,  and  resided,  with 
his  younger  brother  Hillary  and  his  sister  Ann  at  Burscough  House,  otherwise 
known  as  the  Hall  of  Burscough  or  Little  Burscough,  in  Lathom.  In  this  very 
year,  1667,  he  and  the  above  brother  and  sister  joined  by  their  only  surviving 
brother,  Henry  Longe  alias  Cansfield,  chaplain  to  the  Sherburnes  at  Stonyhurst, 
conveyed  Burscough  Hall  and  fourteen  acres  of  land  to  Peter  Lathom,  then  of 
Mawdesley,  but  subsequently  of  Bispham,  who  by  will  dated  2  Apr.,  1700,  left 
the  estate  in  secret  trust  for  the  benefit  of  the  priest  serving  the  mission.  Lathom 
died  in  1702,  and  from  that  period  down  to  the  present  day  there  has  been  an 
unbroken  succession  of  incumbents,  though  a  new  chapel  replaced  the  old  one 
in  the  hall  about  18 1 5,  when  the  moat  surrounding  the  mansion  was  filled  up.

'  The  Goldens  or  Gouldens  had  always  retained  the  faith,  and  were  a  very 
good  Catholic  family.  Richard  Goulden,  of  Winwick  Hall,  which  at  a  later  period 
became  the  rectory,  was  son  of  Thomas  Goulden,  of  Winwick,  and  his  wife 
Jane,  and  married  Anne,  dau.  of  John  Hawarden,  of  Widnes,  gent.  He  died  in 
1690.  He  had  several  brothers,  John,  Henry,  James,  all  recusants  1623-39,  and 
apparently  Nicholas,  who  is  said  in  an  old  clergy  obituary  to  have  gone  to  St 
Omer's  College,  whence  he  went  to  that  at  Valladolid,  and  subsequently  passed 
under  the  names  of  Nicholas  Fortescue  and  Fortescue  Goulden.  The  same  record 
says  he  was  born  at  the  Hall  of  Winwick,  and  died  in  London  5  May,  1676.  He 
does  not  appear  under  his  own  name  or  that  of  Fortescue  in  the  Valladolid  Diary, 
but  he  may  probably  be  identical  with  Nicholas  Collins  alias  Ashton,  who  went 
to  the  College  at  the  age  of  nineteen  in  1627,  and  having  been  ordained  priest  was 
sent  to  England  in  1633.  The  Goldens  early  in  the  eighteenth  century  resided  at 
Hardshaw  Hall,  in  Windle-with-Hardshaw,  when  Thomas  Golden,  of  that 
place,  and  Richard  Parkinson,  of  Broughton,  married  the  two  daughters  of 
Richard  Cottam,  of  Bannister  Hey  in  Claughton.  The  latter  was  father  of  the 
Rev.  Thomas  Parkinson  alias  Golden  and  James  Parkinson  alias  Cottam,  bom 
in  1 71 3  and  171 5  respectively.  Mr  Parkinson  alias  Golden  served  Blackbrook 
and  Hardshaw  Hall  missions,  was  killed  by  a  heavy  stone  slate  falling  upon  his 
head,  7  March,  175 1,  and  was  buried  at  Windleshaw.  Hardshaw  Hall  and  the 
manor  of  St  Helens  subsequently  passed  to  John  Penketh  Cottam,  whose 
descendants  spell  their  name  Cotham.

Bart,  at  the  age  of  twenty-one  went  to  Maryland  with  Mr  Calvert,  Lord  Balti-

which  he  went  into  the  service  of  the  King  of  Spain  in  the  Low  Countries. 
Upon  the  civil  wars  breaking  out  he  raised  a  regiment  of  foot  guards  for  Queen 
Henrietta  Maria,  and  upon  arrival  in  England  marched  with  her  Majesty  to 
Oxford.  After  the  restoration  he  became  cup-bearer  in  ordinary  to  the  Queen- 
mother  at  Somerset  House,  an  office  which  he  retained  till  her  majesty's  death. 
He  married,  first,  Frances,  dau.  of  Sir  Ralph  Hansby,  of  Tickhill  Castle,  by 
whom  he  had  a  son  who  died  in  infancy,  and,  secondly,  Judith,  dau.  of  Sir 
Nicholas  Stewart,  of  Pateshall,  co.  Northampton.  Colonel  Gerard  died  at  Ince 
Hall,  which  he  had  purchased  from  his  cousin  Thomas  Gerard,  5  Sept,  1686. 
Ince  descended  to  the  colonel's  great  granddaughter,  Mary  Gerard,  who  carried 
the  estate  in  marriage  to  John  Walmesley,  father  of  Richard  Walmesley,  of 
Westwood  House,  in  whose  descendants  it  still  remains.  Ince  Old  Hall  was  a 
half-timbered  house  surrounded  by  a  moat,  and  the  domestic  chapel  was  regu- 
larly served  throughout  the  days  of  the  penal  laws. 

•  Ancestor  of  the  Rev.  Ralph  Piatt,  forty-five  years  priest  at  Puddington 
Hall,  Cheshire,  who  died  there  13  Feb.,  1837,  aged  seventy-eight,  whose 
brother,  John,  of  Orford,  near  Warrington,  was  father  of  Canon  James  Piatt,  of 
Bishop  Thornton,  and  the  Very  Rev.  Ralph  Provost  Piatt,  D.D.,  of  Dodding

^  Edward  Winstanley,  gent.,  died  in  i68o,  and  his  wife  six  years  earlier.  The 
family  was  descended  from  the  Winstanleys  of  Winstanley  Hall,  in  the  adjoin- 
ing township  of  Winstanley,  where  Edmund  Winstanley  died  in  1593.  A  name- 
sake of  the  latter  in  a  previous  generation  married  Mary,  relict  of  Thomas 
Bjnrom,  of  Byrom,  and  dau.  of  Sir  Thomas  Langton,  Baron  of  Newton,  by  Eliz., 
dau.  of  Sir  Edward  Stanley,  Lord  Monteagle;  and  the  family  intermarried 
with  the  Molyneux,  Crosse,  fErance,  Culcheth,  and  other  leading  families, 
Edward's  son  WiUiam,  of  Highfield,  in  Pemberton,  was  a  non-juror  in  171 7,  and 
his  son  Edward  married  Margery,  dau.  of  Thomas  Hothersall,  of  Hothersall 
Hall,  and  coheiress  to  her  brother  John.  There  were  several  priests  of  the 
family,  of  whom  Edmund,  some  time  chaplain  to  the  Duke  of  Norfolk  at  Work- 
sop, died  at  Maple  Durham  in  1783,  and  his  nephew  and  namesake,  Dr  Edmund 
Winstanley,  died  president  of  the  English  College  at  Lisbon  in  1852. 

2  Ralph  Scott  married  Ehz.,  dau.  of  Cuthbert  Hesketh,  of  White  Hill,  and 
died  in  1669.  The  family  was  a  very  ancient  one,  and  always  remained  staunch  to 
the  faith.  The  Scots  subsequently  intermarried  with  the  Hawardens  and  other 
good  families,  and  ended  in  the  last  half  of  the  eighteenth  century  with  Mary, 
dau.  and  heiress  of  Thomas  Scott,  of  Wigan,  and  his  wife  Alathea,  coheiress  and 
surviving  sister  of  Christopher  Anderton,  of  Wigan. 

3  James  Orrell  died  in  1671.  His  father,  Humphrey,  was  a  recusant  as  early 
as  9  Car.  I.  The  family  claimed  to  be  descended  from  the  Orrells  of  Turton 
Tower,  who  represented  the  original  family  seated  at  Orrell.  James's  son  Hum- 
phrey removed  the  family  seat  to  Blackbrook  House,  in  Parr.  He  married  Ann, 
dau.  of  Christopher  Gradell,  of  Barbies  Moor,  and  his  wife,  a  Nelson  of  Fair- 
hurst,  and  was  succeeded  by  his  son  James,  who  was  father  of  the  two  priests, 
John  and  Joseph.  The  last  male  of  the  family,  the  Rev.  Philip  Orrell,  died  at 
tjshaw  College  in  1866,  after  which  the  estate  passed  to  charitable  uses,  and  the 
mansion  became  a  convent.  The  Orrells  claimed  the  lordship  of  Parr,  but  held 
no  manorial  court. 

*  Of  this  family  were  the  Revs.  James  Rigby  alias  Barker,  D.D.,  born 
about  1671,  and  Lawrence  Rigby  alias  Barker,  born  1675,  sons  of  Alexander 
Rigby  and  his  wife  Margaret  Jameson.  The  former  died  in  London  in  1731,  and 
the  latter,  after  being  Superior  of  St  Gregory's  Seminary  at  Paris,  died  in  the 
same  year  at  Wycliffe.  Of  a  later  generation  were  the  Revs  Thomas  Rigby, 
D.D.,  V.G.  of  the  London  District,  who  died  in  1815,  aged  sixty-eight,  and  John

in  1669.  His  father  died  in  1686.  William  Cowley  alias  Martin,  who  became  an 
alumnus  of  Douay  in  1672,  was  a  member  of  the  Chapter  in  1710.  Dom  Wm 
Greg.  Cowley,  O.S.B.,  probably  of  the  same  family,  born  in  1732,  died  in  1799. 

1  Henry  Eccleston,  of  Eccleston  Hall,  died  in  1665,  aged  twenty-eight.  His 
widow,  Eleanor,  was  dau.  of  Robert  Blundell,  of  Ince  Blundell.  Their  only  son, 
Thomas  Eccleston  became  a  Jesuit,  and  died  30  Dec,  1743,  aged  eighty-four. 
Consequently  the  estate  passed  to  his  second  cousin  once  removed,  John  Gor- 
such,  of  Gorsuch  Hall,  whose  grandfather,  Edward  Gorsuch,  who  died  in  1656, 
had  married  Mary,  dau.  of  Henry  Eccleston,  of  Eccleston  Hall,  by  Mary,  dau. 
of  John  Osbaldeston,  of  Osbaldeston  Hall.  John  Gorsuch  assumed  the  name  of 
Eccleston,  but  died  s.p.  in  1742,  when  the  Eccleston  estate  passed  to  Basil 
Thomas  Scarisbrick,  of  Scarisbrick  Hall,  who  likewise  assumed  the  name  of 
Eccleston. 

2  The  Malbons,  descended  from  an  old  Cheshire  family,  were  recusants  re- 
siding at  "  Glugsmore  "  in  Eccleston  temp.  Eliz.,  and  also  at  Prescot.  One  of 
them,  John  Malbon,  was  at  Scarisbrick  Hall  in  1688,  and  was  supposed  by 
Father  Bulbeck  to  be  the  chaplain  (Foley,  Records  S.J.  vii,  1404),  but  there  is 
no  record  of  the  name  in  any  of  the  college  registers.  In  1717,  Robert  Malbon,  of 
Wootton  Wawen,  co.  Warwick,  gent.,  registered  an  estate  in  Lancashire.  The 
family  was  connected  with  the  Gerards  of  Bryn. 

3  He  died  in  1670.  The  family  appears  in  the  recusant  rolls  as  of  Windle 
and  Parr  from  a  much  earlier  period. 

^  Henry  Norreys  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1665,  being  then 
of  the  age  of  sixty-five.  His  wife  was  Catherine,  dau.  of  Sir  Alexander  Barlow, 
of  Barlow  Hall.  His  son  Richard,  who  died  in  1687,  aged  forty-four,  married 
Helen,  dau.  of  Henry  Carter,  of  Roby.  Richard  Norreys,  younger  brother  of 
Henry,  married  Anne,  dau.  of  Sir  Cuthbert  Clifton,  of  Clifton  and  Lytham.

1  The  Shepherds  of  Sefton,  and  of  Broughton  near  Preston,  where  their 
residence  adjoined  the  old  chapel  at  Lady  Well,  Fernyhalgh,  were  a  family 
greatly  respected  by  the  clergy,  who  entrusted  them  with  much  church  pro- 
perty. The  above  Robert  Shepherd  is  described  as  of  Broughton,  gent.,  in  1685, 
and  one  of  the  same  name,  with  a  wife  Alice  and  a  sister  Cicely,  of  Sefton,  regis- 
tered his  estate  as  a  non-juror  in  1717.  Robert's  son,  John,  born  7  Jan.,  1678, 
was  ordained  priest  at  Lisbon,  and  died  in  London,  27  Oct.,  1761.  He  was  re- 
lated to  the  Tootells  and  Mellings.  Another  priest,  the  Rev.  Thomas  Shepherd, 
born  28  Oct.,  1720,  was  son  of  William  Shepherd,  of  Croxteth,  gent.,  and  his 
wife,  Mary  Blundell.  He  was  ordained  at  Douay,  and  died  at  Nuthill  in  Holder- 
ness  19  Jan.,  1774.  Joseph  Shepherd,  son  of  William  Shepherd,  of  Broughton, 
gent.,  and  his  wife  Priscilla  Barton,  born  27  July,  1738,  was  ordained  at  Douay, 
22  Dec,  1764,  and  died  rector  of  the  English  College  at  Valladolid,  3  Oct.,  1796. 
His  nephew  and  namesake,  born  at  Bolton,  was  ordained  priest  at  Valladolid, 
and  established  the  mission  in  his  native  town,  whence  he  promoted  missions  at 
Rochdale  and  Bury,  and  died  at  Bolton  28  Jan.,  1825.  Dame  Anne  Mar>' 
Teresa  Shepherd,  O.S.B.,  born  at  Sefton  in  1762,  and  her  sister.  Dame  Helen 
Augustina,  born  in  1764,  were  abbesses  of  the  convent  at  Cambrai  1802-6  and 
1814-18  respectively. 

2  Henry  Hulgreave,  of  Halewood,  died  in  1672. 

3  The  Norreys  family,  of  Speke  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Childwall,  one  of  the 
most  ancient  in  the  county,  hitherto  had  been  staunch  in  its  recusancy. 
Thomas  Norreys,  the  squire  of  this  period,  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation 
of  1664.  He  appears  in  the  recusant  rolls  temp.  Car.  /,  but  through  marrying  a 
Protestant  his  family  fell  away  from  the  faith  of  their  ancestors.  William 
Norreys,  mentioned  above,  was  a  younger  brother  of  Thomas,  and  was  still  on 
the  rolls  in  1681,  and  descendants  of  younger  sons  retained  the  faith  for  long 
afterwards.  Many  of  them  joined  the  Society  of  Jesus,  of  whom  were  three 
of  the  sons  of  John  Norreys,  of  Speke,  and  his  wife,  Eleanor  Beauvoy,  one  of

them  dying  in  1722,  aged  sixty-eight.  The  family  soon  came  to  an  end  after  its 
apostacy,  and  the  estate  passed  with  the  marriage  of  a  coheiress  in  1736  to  Lord 
Sydney  Beauclerk,  fifth  son  of  Charles,  first  Duke  of  St  Albans,  a  worthless 
fortune  hunter,  whose  son  sold  the  estate  to  Richard  Watt.  The  Hall,  re- 
erected  by  Edward  Norreys  in  1598,  is  the  finest  specimen  of  black  and  white 
existing  in  the  county. 

1  The  Chaloners  of  Speke  and  Garston  were  great  sufferers  for  the  faith,and 
annually  appear  in  the  recusant  rolls.  For  several  years  from  1582  one  of  the 
daughters,  Helen  Chaloner,  was  immured  in  Salford  Gaol,  and  very  cruelly 
treated.  Another  member  of  the  family,  John  Chaloner,  was  ordained  priest 
at  Douay  in  1605 ;  William  was  ordained  at  Valladolid,  entered  the  Society  in 
the  Province  of  Castile  in  1659,  and  died  at  St  Albans  College;  Henry  Chaloner 
alias  Ormes,  only  son  of  William  Chaloner,  and  his  wife  Alice  Ormes,  of  Garston, 
entered  the  Society,  and  died  at  Liege  in  1673,  aged  thirty-four;  and  finally 
Edward,  son  of  Edward  Chaloner,  of  Speke,  and  his  wife  Jane  Harrison,  the 
widow  named  above,  born  in  May,  1640,  died  a  student  in  the  English  College 
at  Lisbon  in  1662,  The  Chaloners  always  retained  the  faith.  In  the  nineteenth 
century  they  amassed  a  considerable  fortune  in  the  mahogany  and  timber 
trade,  the  last  of  the  family,  Edward  Chaloner  of  Oak  Hill,  Liverpool,  dying 
12  Feb.,  1874,  aged  seventy-five.

Norreys,  the  then  squire  of  Speke,  who  married  Cath.,  dau.  of  Sir  Henry  Cara- 
way, alderman  of  the  City  of  London,  and  whose  children  were  the  first  to  be 
brought  up  Protestants. 

'^  The  Dwerrihouse  family,  always  Catholic,  leased  a  farm  in  Greasindale 
within  Carston  for  many  generations  from  the  Norreys  family.  Sister  Mary 
Josepha  Dwerrihouse,  O.S.B.,  dau.  of  Thomas  Dwerrihouse,  of  Creasindale, 
yeoman,  died  at  Cambria  in  1786,  aged  twenty-five. 

3  The  Hitchmoughs  of  Garston  and  Speke,  tenants  of  the  Norreys  family, 
annually  appear  in  the  rolls  from  the  earliest  period.  Otherwise  such  good 
Catholics,  they  had  the  misfortune  to  give  birth  to  one  who  turned  out 
perhaps  the  worst  informer,  priest-catcher,  and  persecutor  of  the  eighteenth 
century.  This  was  Richard  Hitchmough  alias  Barker,  grandson  of  Edward 
Hitchmough  above,  and  son  of  Thomas  Hitchmough,  of  Garston,  and  his  wife 
Mary  Barker.  He  was  sent  with  some  of  his  relations  to  Douay  College,  whence 
he  was  expelled  for  ill-behaviour  in  1699,  but  proceeding  to  Rome  obtained 
admittance  into  the  English  College  there,  at  the  age  of  twenty-four,  and  was 
ordained  priest  in  1702.  Upon  his  return  to  England  he  served  at  several 
missions  in  Lancashire,  but  owing  to  his  irregular  life  he  was  sent  to  a  com- 
munity in  France.  Thence  he  was  quickly  expelled  on  account  of  drunkenness, 
in  or  before  17 14,  and  coming  to  England  set  up  as  government-informer  and 
priest-catcher,  and  in  that  capacity  apprehended  in  London  in  17 14  his  old 
college  friend  at  Douay,  the  Rev.  Laurence  Breres,  and  also  endeavoured  to 
seize  Bishop  Giffard.  When  the  Forfeited  Estates  Commission  was  appointed 
after  the  Jacobite  rising  of  171 5,  Hitchmough  became  very  active,  especially 
in  his  native  county,  and  was  responsible  for  the  incarceration  of  many  Catho- 
lics and  the  loss  of  an  immense  amount  of  Catholic  property.  For  his  infamous 
services  he  was  rewarded,  in  Nov.,  1720,  with  the  vicarage  of  Whenby,  in  the 
arch-diocese  of  York,  but  this  he  did  not  long  enjoy,  for,  as  Mr  Payne  points 
out  {Records  of  the  English  Catholics  of  171 5),  the  living  was  declared  vacant 
"  per  mortem  naturalem  Richardi  Hitchmough  "  on  the  date  of  the  next  pre- 
sentation in  April,  1724.  This  appears  to  be  the  only  record  of  the  death  of  this 
unhappy  wretch.

*  Eleanor  Holcroft,  senior,  was  the  widow  of  Thomas  Holcroft,  of  Holcroft 
Hall,  in  Culcheth.  She  was  daughter  of  Thomas  Birch,  of  Birch  Hall.  She  had 
two  daughters,  coheiresses  to  the  Holcroft  estates,  Eleanor,  named  in  the  text, 
and  Margaret.  Mrs  Holcroft  married,  secondly,  Henry  Bunbury,  of  the  family 
of  baronets  of  Bunbury  and  Stanney,  co.  Chester,  and  died  at  Holcroft  Hall  in 
1 7 1 1 .  The  mansion  and  a  moiety  of  the  manor  of  Holcroft  passed  to  the  Tyl- 
desleys,  her  daughter  Eleanor  having  married  in  1679  the  Jacobist  diarist, 
Thomas  Tyldesley,  of  Morleys  Hall  in  Astley  and  Myerscough  Lodge.  Mrs 
Tyldesley  died  in  Nov.,  1693,  a-i^d  the  moiety  of  the  Holcroft  property  passed 
to  her  son,  Edward  Tyldesley,  who  joined  the  Chevalier  de  St  George  at  Preston 
in  171 5,  and  was  tried  for  high  treason  but  acquitted.  His  son,  James  Tyldesley, 
who  was  out  with  Prince  Charles  Edward  in  1745,  died  in  1768,  soon  after  which 
Holcroft  Hall,  Morleys  Hall  in  Astley,  and  the  remnant  of  the  ancient  Tyl- 
desley estates  passed  into  the  hands  of  strangers,  and  the  family  is  now  lost  in 
obscurity.  Margaret,  the  younger  daughter  of  Mrs  Holcroft  and  coheiress  to  the 
Holcroft  estates,  married,  first.  Sir  Richard  Standish,  Bart,  of  Duxbury,  by 
whom  she  had  a  son,  Sir  Thomas  Standish,  and,  secondly.  Sir  Thomas  Stanley, 
Bart,  of  Bickerstaff  Hall,  whose  eldest  son  by  his  first  wife,  Sir  Edward  Stan^ 
ley,  succeeded  as  eleventh  Earl  of  Derby. 

2  Richard  Mascy,  of  Rixton  Hall,  who  died  in  December  of  this  very  year, 
1667,  was  twice  married,  first,  to  Frances,  dau.  of  Francis  Plowden,  of  Plowden 
Hall,  CO.  Salop,  who  died  in  1645, 3-nd  by  whom  he  had  two  sons — Hamlet,  bom 

1641,  who  died  in  his  father's  lifetime  in  Dec,  1665,  and  Francis,  bom  about 

1642,  who  died  in  1675,  when  Rixton  passed  to  his  son  Richard — and  two 
daughters,  Doro.  and  Frances,  who  were  already  nuns  abroad  at  this  time; 
secondly,  to  Alice,  dau.  of  Sir  Cuthbert  Clifton,  of  Lytham,  who  died  in  May, 
1674,  ^nd  by  whom  he  had  a  son,  Richard,  who  died  in  1681,  and  a  daughter, 
Catherine,  who  became  a  nun.  The  last  may  be  identical  with  "  Hamletta  "  of 
the  text.  Eventually  the  estates  passed  to  George  Meynell,  of  Aldborough,  co. 
York,  whose  father  and  namesake,  of  Aldborough  and  Dalton,  married,  in 
1 68 1,  Mary,  sole  child  and  heiress  of  the  above  Hamlet  Mascy,  by  Margaret, 
dau.  and  coheir  of  Sir  Edward  More,  of  Thelwall,  co.  Chester,  Bart.

1  Richard  Sale,  of  Hopcar,  Bedford,  in  the  parish  of  Leigh,  returned  a  pedi- 
gree at  the  Visitation  of  1664.  The  family  always  retained  the  faith,  and  appears 
on  the  recusant  rolls  from  the  very  first.  Richard  Sale  was  the  son  and  heir  of 
WilHam  Sale,  of  Hopcar,  by  Anne,  dau.  of  Sir  John  Nevill,  of  Leversedge,  co. 
York,  and  coheiress  of  her  brother,  Father  Edmund  Nevill,  S.J.,  who  died  in 
1646,  aged  eighty-six.  His  uncle,  John  Sale,  younger  son  of  Gilbert  Sale,  by 
Agnes,  dau.  of  Roger  Urmston,  of  Lostock,  was  a  priest  serving  in  this  district 
in  1632,  and  probably  used  the  alias  of  Urmston;  and  his  younger  brother, 
Father  Edmund  Sale  alias  Nevill,  S.J.,  died  in  1647,  aged  forty-three.  He  mar- 
ried Philippa,  dau.  of  Christopher  Wyvill,  eldest  son  of  Sir  Marmaduke  Wyvill, 
Knt  and  Bart,  of  Constable  Burton,  co.  York,  and  died  in  1685.  He  had  three 
sons  and  two  daughters — Gilbert,  his  successor,  aged  thirty  in  1664;  Richard 
Sale  alias  Nevill,  a  secular  priest,  baptized  1641,  came  to  England  from  the  Eng- 
lish College  at  Rome  about  this  time,  and  eventually  was  stationed  at  Burs-

cough  Hall  till  his  death  about  Nov.,  171 3 ;  John,  who  died  in  1701 ;  Anne,  as  in 
the  text;  and  Mary,  who  was  probably  married  at  this  time.  Gilbert  died  at 
Hopcar  in  17 15,  and  his  widow,  Alice,  registered  her  estate  as  a  Catholic  non- 
juror in  1 717.  They  had  two  sons,  William  and  Richard,  the  latter  of  whom 
was  residing  at  Astley  in  1754  with  his  wife  Mary  and  son  John.  The  eldest, 
William,  succeeded  to  Hopcar,  and  registered  that  estate  as  a  non- juror  in  1717. 
He  married  Jane,  dau.  of  Edmund  Tristram,  of  Ince  Blundell,  the  marriage 
covenant  bearing  date  22  Apr,,  17 18,  and  had  two  sons,  Gilbert  Sale,  who  suc- 
ceeded his  father  and  sold  the  Hopcar  estate  4  July,  1770,  and  Father  John 
Sale,  S.J.,  born  in  1722,  who  served  at  Crosby  Hall,  Bedford  Leigh,  Holywell, 
and  Furness,  dying  at  the  latter  place  in  1791.  For  a  very  long  period  Mass  was 
said  in  Hopcar,  an  old  mansion  surrounded  by  a  moat,  where  the  Catholics  of 
Leigh  attended  as  well  as  in  the  chapels  at  Bedford,  the  seat  of  the  Shuttle- 
worths,  and  at  The  Parsonage,  the  seat  of  the  Urmstons. 

^  Richard  Shuttleworth,  of  Shuttleworth  House,  Bedford,  returned  a  pedi- 
gree at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  being  then  of  the  age  of  twenty-two.  His  ancestors 
had  been  lords  of  the  manor  of  Bedford  for  many  generations,  and  he  himself 
became  joint-lord  of  West  Leigh  through  his  mother,  Frances  Bradshaw,  of  the 
preceding  entry,  whose  first  husband  was  Richard  Shuttleworth,  who  died  165 1, 
and  her  second,  George  Bradshaw,  of  Greenacre,  whose  will  was  dated  24  Dec, 
1656,  and  proved  in  1661.  She  was  one  of  the  daughters  and  coheirs  of  Richard 
Urmston,  of  The  Parsonage,  lord  of  the  manor  of  West  Leigh,  by  Alice, 
daughter  of  Edward  Eccleston,  of  Eccleston  Hall,  and  her  son,  Richard 
Shuttleworth,  administered  to  her  estate  in  1696.  The  latter 's  son  and 
namesake  was  a  spendthrift  and  an  apostate,  and  brought  the  family  into 
obscurity.  Anne  Shuttleworth,  referred  to  in  the  text,  was  Richard's  sister. 
They  had  an  uncle  Edward  (or  Edmund)  Woolstan  Shuttleworth,  O.S.B.,  who 
died  in  1677.  He  was  one  of  the  three  younger  sons  of  Richard  Shuttleworth,  of 
Bedford,  by  his  second  wife,  Mary,  dau.  of  James  Holland,  of  Dalton,  and 
whilst  on  the  mission  used  the  alias  of  Dalton. 

2  Peter  Urmston  in  later  rolls  is  described  as  of  Bedford  in  West  Leigh,  gent. 
His  son  John  Urmston,  baptized  by  Father  Alexander  Holland,  S.J.,  4  July, 
1665,  went  from  St  Omer's  College  to  that  at  Rome  in  1684  to  study  for  the 
Church,  but  he  does  not  appear  to  have  persevered.  He  stated  on  entering  the 
college  that  he  had  one  brother  and  three  sisters,  and  also  an  uncle,  John 
Urmston,  a  priest,  then  studying  in  Spain.  The  latter  statement  wants  some 
explanation,  for  the  Rev.  John  Urmston  was  chaplain  at  Broughton  Hall,  the 
seat  of  the  Tempests  in  Yorkshire,  from  1655  till  1673,  save  a  brief  interval, 
and  in  1675  he  was  serving  the  mission  in  Lancashire.  Peter  Urmston's  will  was 
proved  in  1693.  He  was  probably  a  grandson  of  Peter  Urmston,  of  West  Leigh, 
younger  son  of  Richard  Urmston,  lord  of  West  Leigh,  by  Katherine,  dau.  of 
Thomas  Starkey,  of  Stretton,  co.  Chester.  All  the  family  were  staunch  re- 
cusants.

^  Brian  Arrowsmith  was  a  nephew  of  the  martyr,  Father  Brian  Edmund 
Arrowsmith  alias  Bradshaw  and  Rigby,  S.J.,  whose  "  Holy  Hand  "  is  now  at 
St  Oswald's,  Ashton.  The  martyr  was  the  son  of  Robert  Arrowsmith,  of  Hay- 
dock,  and  his  wife  Margery  Gerard,  a  daughter  of  a  junior  branch  of  the 
Gerards  of  Bryn.  In  her  widowhood  this  lady  is  found  annually  in  the  recusant 
rolls  from  42  EHz.  (i 599-1600)  to  20  Jac.  I  (1622-23).  The  martyr  took  the  name 
of  Edmund,  by  which  he  is  generally  known,  in  confirmation,  no  doubt  after 
his  uncle,  the  Rev.  Edmund  Arrowsmith,  D.D.,  who  was  ordained  priest  at 
Rheims  in  1587,  and  1591  became  professor  of  casuistry  in  that  college.  Father 
Brian  was  bom  at  Haydock  in  1585,  and  suffered  at  Lancaster  in  1628.  Robert 
Arrowsmith,  of  Haydock,  the  martyr's  brother,  appears  on  the  recusant  rolls 
in  1625-26,  and  his  widow  Sibyl  was  living  at  Parr  in  1630-31  with  her 
son  Brian,  who  subsequently  seems  to  have  returned  to  Haydock  as  in  the  text. 
Some  of  the  family  eventually  settled  in  Barton,  near  Preston.  Richard 
Arrowsmith,  of  this  branch,  married  a  daughter  of  Nicholas  Roskell,  of  Gar- 
stang,  and  established  a  banking  business  in  Preston,  which  was  carried  on  by 
his  son  Robert  under  the  title  of  Roskell,  Arrowsmith,  and  Kendall  till  its 
failure  about  1870.  Their  relative,  the  Rev.  Roger  Arrowsmith,  died  at  Lytham 
in  1886,  aged  sixty- two.

^  John  Barrow,  of  Standish-gate,  Wigan,  died  in  1676.  He  was  probably 
nearly  related  to  Gilbert  Barrow,  of  Wigan,  who  died  in  1669,  and  whose 
daughters,  Anne  and  Jane,  married  respectively  Henry  Ashton,  of  Preston,  and 
Nicholas  Pennington,  of  Wigan.  About  the  same  period  Anne,  dau.  of  Hugh 
Barrow,  of  Wigan,  married  Richard  Molyneux,  of  Hawkley  Hall. 

2  The  fforths,  or  Fords,  were  an  old  family  in  Wigan  and  district.  Alexander 
fforth,  of  Standish,  who  died  in  1624,  appears  in  the  rolls  temp.  Jac.  I.  Hugh 
fforth,  who  was  an  alderman  of  Wigan  and  died  in  1581,  married  Ellen,  dau. 
of  Adam  Rigby,  of  Wigan,  and  her  brother,  Alexander  Rigby,  who  married 
Jane,  dau.  of  Thomas  Laithwaite,  of  Wigan,  was  father  of  Father  Alexander 
Rigby,  O.P.,  and  founded  the  family  of  Rigby  of  Burgh  Hall  and  Layton  Hall. 
A  later  Hugh  fforth  of  Wigan  left  a  dau.  and  heir  Dorothy,  the  wife  of  Col.  Wm 
Daniell,  of  Wigan,  aged  forty  temp.  Visitation  1665. 

^  The  Laithwaites  formerly  owned  The  Meadows,  Pemberton.in  the  parish 
of  Wigan.  About  this  time  it  passed  to  the  Marklands,  of  Pemberton  Hall,  one  of 
whom  appears  in  the  text.  There  is  still  an  old  farmhouse  in  Pemberton  known 
as  "  Laithwaite  House."  Henry  Laithwaite,  of  The  Meadows,  by  Jane  Bolton, 
his  wife,  had  four  sons  Jesuits,  all  of  whom  used  the  alias  of  Kensington,  and 
one,  the  eldest,  that  of  Scott  also.  Their  names  were  Thomas,  bom  1576, 
Edward,  bom  1582,  John,  born  1585,  and  Francis,  bom  1589.  Their  father  and 
their  uncle  John  Laithwaite  suffered  imprisonment  and  great  persecution  in 
1577  {vide  Gibson's  Lydiate  Hall,  pp.  214-45,  240,  and  P.R.O.  Dom  Eliz., 
Vol.cxviii,  Nos.  20-1).  In  1579  a  priest  named  John  Lowe  alias  Jenson  came 
over  from  Rheims  and  was  entertained  at  The  Meadows  by  Henry  Laithwaite ; 
and  in  1586-88  Alexander  Markland,  another  Rheims  priest,  one  of  the  family 
previously  mentioned,  served  the  mission  at  The  Meadows. 

^  The  Farnworths  would  seem  to  have  acquired  Runshaw  Hall,  inEuxton, 
parish  of  Leyland,  soon  after  this  time,  and  this  estate  was  registered  by 
Edward  Famworth,  of  Runshaw  Hall,  as  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  171 7.  He  was 
son  of  William,  named  above.  Dom  John  Jerome  Famworth,  O.S.B.,  and  his 
brother,  Dom  Ralph  Cuthbert  Famworth,  O.S.B.,  were  both  born  at  Runshaw, 
the  latter  in  1680,  and  were  apparently  brothers  of  this  Edward.  The  non-juror's 
dau,  Mary  married  William  Patten,  of  London,  third  son  of  Thomas  Patten,  of 
Patten  Lane,  Preston,  ancestor  of  Lord  Winmarleigh,  and  had  issue  one  son, 
Dom  Thomas  Patten,  O.S.B.,  bom  in  Lancashire  in  1727,  who  came  to  the 
northern  province  in  1758,  served  Standish  Hall  in  1767-69,  and  died  at  Douay 
in  1787,  and  two  daughters  Margaret  and  Elizabeth.

in  1873,  is  most  unsatisfactory.  Richard  Formby,  the  recusant  of  1667,  died  in 
1 68 1.  His  wife,  Ann,  is  said  to  have  been  the  widow  of  Robert  Hesketh,  of 
North  Meols  Hall,  the  marriage  taking  place  in  1647.  He  was  succeeded  by  his 
son  and  namesake,  who  died  in  1698,  leaving  by  his  wife,  Alice  Rimmer,  whom 
he  married  in  1682,  a  son  and  successor,  Richard,  born  in  that  year,  who  married 
in  1705  Mary,  dau.  and  heir  of  Thomas  Norres,  of  Ince,  belonging  to  a  Catholic 
yeomanry  family  said  to  be  descended  from  a  younger  son  of  Norreys  of  Speke 
Hall.  This  Richard  would  seem  to  have  been  the  first  of  his  family  to  apostatize. 
His  descendant,  the  Rev.  Henry  Formby,  who  died  in  1884,  aged  sixty-seven, 
was  one  of  the  Oxford  converts  of  1846.  Mass  was  said  in  Formby  Hall  down  to 
the  end  of  the  seventeenth  century.  One  of  the  family,  Edward,  became  a  Car- 
thusian, and  died  at  Nieuport  in  1720,  Junior  branches  of  the  family  were  set- 
tled at  Formby  and  Ince  Blundell,  and  to  one  of  these  belonged  Richard 
Formby,  an  alumnus  of  Douay,  who  left  the  college  on  account  of  ill-health  in 
his  second  years'  philosophy,  23  Mch,  1723  {Douay  Diary  MS.).  Other  members 
of  one  of  these  branches  were  the  Very  Rev.  Matthias  Canon  Formby,  who  died 
at  Stretford  in  1892,  and  his  nephew,  the  Rev.  Henry  Formby,  who  died  in  1890.

^  A  cadet  of  the  Ditchfields,  of  Ditton  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Prescot,  who  re- 
turned a  very  long  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1567,  and  another  at  that  of 
161 3.  He  died  in  1683,  and  his  widow  in  1686.  He  may  be  identical  with  John, 
younger  brother  of  Edward  Ditchfield,  of  Ditton  Hall,  a  recusant,  whose  dau. 
and  heir,  Elizabeth,  married  John  Hoghton,  of  Park  Hall,  and  was  living  a 
recusant  at  Ditton,  and  then  a  widow,  in  1680.  Edward's  uncle,  Edward,  was 
ordained  priest  at  Douay  in  161 9,  was  subsequently  imprisoned  and  pardoned 
by  Charles  I,  and  was  living  in  Lancashire  in  1632.  In  recent  times  the  hall 
became  the  residence  of  the  late  Marchioness  Stapleton-Bretherton,  who  in 
1872  allowed  some  exiled  German  Jesuits  to  open  a  college  there.  Upon  their 
departure,  in  1895,  it  was  carried  on  as  a  Jesuit  mission,  and  in  1903  the  Sisters 
of  Nazareth  opened  a  home  in  the  old  hall.

^The  Hawetts  were  intermarried  with  many  good  Catholic  families.  Richard 
Hawett,  of  Ormskirk,  died  in  1668,  He  was  probably  father  of  Dom  Edmund 
Hawett,  O.S.B.,  born  at  Ormskirk,  and  professed  at  Paris  in  1683,  who  died  in 
DubUn  in  1688.  Jane,  dau.  of  Thomas  Hawett,  of  Ormskirk,  and  his  wife,  a 
dau.  of  Hugh  Holland,  of  Roby,  married  in  1709  John  Westby,  of  White  Hall, 
in  Upper  Rawcliffe,  and  died  in  1745.  She  was  probably  sister  to  Dame  Frances 
Mary  Winefrid  Hawett,  O.S.B.,  of  Cambrai,  who  was  born  in  1685  and  died  in 
1734.  In  1717  Cecilia  Hawett,  widow,  returned  as  a  Catholic  non-juror  an 
annuity  of  ;^8o  out  of  the  Bamfurlong  Hall  estate  in  Abram,  the  seat  of  her

brother,  Ralph  Gerard  alias  Harrison,  priest,  who  died  there  in  1699.  In  17 16 
Hitchmough,  the  apostate  priest,  declared  that  the  house  in  Liverpool  held  by 
the  widow  of  Richard  Hawett,  of  Liverpool,  merchant,  belonged  to  James 
Almond,  senior,  a  priest  at  Speke.  This  good  priest's  death  is  commemorated  in 
the  Rev.  Thomas  Anderton's  MS.  in  Sept.,  17 19.  One  of  the  same  name,  born  in 
1645,  ^^^  ordained  in  1667,  is  recorded  in  the  diary  of  the  English  College 
at  Rome  to  have  died  in  England  22  April,  1670  (Foley,  Records,  S.J.,  vi).  This 
was  probably  an  unfounded  report,  for  apparently  he  lived  till  17 19. 

^These  Blundells  may  possibly  have  derived  from  the  family  of  the  terri- 
torial lords  of  Ince  Blundell,  but  they  can  be  traced  back  as  yeomen  for  a  very 
long  period.  Laurence  Blundell's  will  was  proved  in  1682.  He  was  probably  son 
of  Richard  Blundell,  of  Ince  Blundell,  and  his  wife  Cicely,  who  were  recusants 
as  early  as  1633  with  Henry  Blundell  and  his  wife  Margaret.  Richard  was  still 
on  the  rolls  at  this  time  and  appears  elsewhere  in  the  text ;  his  will  was  proved 
in  1668,  and  that  of  his  widow,  Cecily,  in  1692.  In  1717  Richard  Blundell,  yeo- 
man, apparently  son  of  Laurence,  registered  as  a  Catholic  non- juror  his  lease- 
hold house  at  Carr  Side  in  Ince  Blundell.  By  his  wife,  Elizabeth,  he  had  sons, 
Laurence,  Francis,  born  13  Aug.,  1717,  and  Richard.  Francis  became  a  Jesuit, 
was  at  Brough  Hall,  Yorks.,  from  1741,  or  earlier,  till  his  removal  to  The 
Grange,  Formby,  where  he  is  found  in  1767,  and  remained  there  till  his  death 
I  Feb.,  1779.  Richard,  the  second  son,  married  (covenant  dated  24  Nov.,  1748) 
Ellen,  dau,  of  John  Chadwick,  of  Birkacre,  Chorley,  and  sister  of  the  Rev.  John 
Chadwick,  of  Weld  Bank,  V.G.  of  Lancashire,  and  removed  from  Carr-Side  to 
Preston,  where  he  became  a  corn-merchant.  He  had  sons  Richard,  John,  and 
Francis,  born  30  June,  1753,  who  arrived  at  Douay  from  the  junior  school  at 
Esquerchin  2  June,  1767,  was  ordained  priest  in  1779,  and  sent  to  Formby  to 
take  his  uncle's  place.  In  1784  he  was  transferred  to  Stonyhurst,  commenced 
the  register  there  on  26  Sept.,  and  remained  till  his  death  23  Dec,  1792.  John 
Blundell,  the  second  son,  succeeded  to  his  father's  business  in  Preston.  His  son, 
Francis  Blundell,  settled  in  Drogheda,  and  married  his  second  cousin,  Frances, 
dau.  of  John  Chadwick,  of  Drogheda,  and  sister  of  Dr  James  Chadwick,  Bishop 
of  Hexham  and  Newcastle;  and  two  of  his  daughters  were  mothers  respec- 
tively of  Dr  Bernard  O'Reilly,  Bishop  of  Liverpool,  and  the  Rev.  John  Canon 
Worthy,  of  Weld  Bank,  and  a  third,  Helen,  born  21  June,  1785,  died  a  nun  at 
York  Bar  in  1862. 

The  Blundells,  lords  of  Ince  Blundell,  for  some  reason  seem  to  have  escaped

being  on  the  roll  for  this  year,  though  the  squire  of  the  day,  Henry  Blundell, 
who  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1665,  appears  with  his  wife  in  later 
years.  He  married  Bridget,  dau.  of  Major-General  Sir  Thomas  Tyldesley,  of 
Morleys  and  Myerscough,  and  died  in  1688.  His  great  uncle,  William  Blundell, 
bom  1568,  studied  at  Rheims  and  Rome,  was  ordained  priest,  and  died  in  the 
latter  college  in  1 596.  The  family  retained  the  faith  till  it  became  extinct  in  the 
male  line  upon  the  death  of  Charles  Robert  Blundell,  of  Ince  Blundell  Hall, 
28  Oct.,  1837,  when  the  estate  passed  to  the  Welds,  who  assumed  the  addi- 
tional name  of  Blundell. 

1  The  will  of  Wm  Blanchard,  of  Ince  Blundell,  yeom.,  was  proved  in  1668, 
and  that  of  a  namesake  in  1676,  and  of  Edward  Blanchard,  of  the  same,  in  1676. 
Edward's  son  George  settled  at  Alston,  near  Preston,  and  founded  the  family 
of  Blanchard  of  Grimsargh  House,  the  last  of  whom,  Capt.  John  Blanchard, 
died  in  1835,  aged  twenty-eight. 

'-^William  Blundell,  of  Crosby  Hall,  best  known  from  his  Cavalier's  Note  Book. 
edited  by  the  Rev.  T.  E.  Gibson  in  1880,  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation 
of  1665.  He  represented  one  of  the  most  ancient  families  in  Lancashire,  and  a 
tolerable  but  not  very  full  pedigree  appears  in  Foster's  Lancashire  Pedigrees  of 
1873,  He  married  Anne,  dau.  of  Sir  Thomas  Haggerston,  of  Haggerston  Castle, 
CO.  Northumberland,  Bart,  and  died  24  May,  1698,  aged  seventy-eight.  His 
brother  Richard  died  a  scholastic  S.J.  at  Rome  in  1649,  aged  twenty-three; 
and  his  eldest  and  third  sons,  Nicholas  and  Thomas,  born  in  1640  and  1648,  be- 
came Jesuits,  and  died  respectively  in  1680  and  1702.  His  second  son,  William, 
named  in  the  text,  succeeded  to  the  estate,  and  married  Mary,  dau.  of  Row- 
land Eyre,  of  Hassop  Hall,  co.  Derby,  and  was  father  of  Nicholas  Blundell,  the 
last  male  representative  of  the  family,  who  died  in  1737.  By  Frances,  dau.  of 
Marmaduke,  second  Lord  Langdale,  Nicholas  left  two  daughters,  the  younger 
of  whom,  Frances,  eventually  became  sole  heiress  to  the  Crosby  estates.  She 
married  Henry  Peppard,  whose  son  Nicholas  succeeded  to  Crosby  and  assumed 
the  name  of  Blundell,  the  estates  having  since  been  held  by  his  descendants.

^  Bryan  Lea  married  Eleanor,  dau.  of  William  Holland,  of  Sutton  Hall, 
whose  grandson,  Edward  Holland,  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664. 
Brian  registered  his  estate  as  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  171 7.  Elsewhere  he  is 
described  as  of  Lea  Green  in  Sutton,  gent.  His  dau.  and  heir,  Catherine,  married 
John  Hawarden,  of  Lower  House,  Widnes,  lord  of  that  manor,  and  registered 
her  estate  as  a  Catholic  non-juror  16  April,  1717,  being  then  a  widow.  Her 
second  son,  Captain  Bryan  Hawarden,  married  Mary,  sister  and  heiress  of 
Robert  fEazakerley,  of  Fazakerley,  and  was  father  of  John  Hawarden  ffaza- 
kerley,  whose  son  Lieut. -Col.  Samuel  Hawarden  ffazakerley,  of  Fazakerley 
Hall,  was  the  last  of  that  branch  of  the  family.  Mrs  Bryan  Hawarden  subse- 
quently married  Thomas  Mostyn,  brother  of  Sir  Piers  Mostyn,  of  Talacre,  Bart. 
Bryan  Lea  was  still  living  in  1717,  when  he  registered  his  estate  as  a  Catholic 
non- juror. 

'^  His  will  was  proved  in  1692. 

2  She  was  dau.  of  John  Molyneux,  of  New  Hall,  and  widow  of  John 
Johnson,  of  Great  Crosby. 

*  He  died  at  Eccleston  about  March,  and  his  will  was  proved  in  1679.  His 
description  as  husbandman  is  evidently  an  error  for  gentleman,  like  that  of 
Bryan  Lea  and  many  others.  His  sole  dau.  and  heir,  Margaret,  bom  24  Dec, 
1672,  and  therefore  not  the  one  named  in  the  text,  who  was  probably  his  sister, 
married  10  Feb.,  1688,  Richard  Worthington,  of  Blainscow  Hall,  who  was 
bom  17  Oct.,  1664,  and  was  outlawed  in  17 16  for  joining  the  Chevalier  de  St- 
George  in  the  previous  year.  His  father,  Thomas  Worthington,  of  Blainscow

Hall,  who  married  Jane,  dau.  of  John  Plumpton,  of  Plumpton  Hall,  co.  York, 
returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  and  appears  in  the  recusant  roll 
for  1679. 

*In  all  probability  Miss  Langhorne  was  a  near  relative,  perhaps  a  sister,  of 
the  venerable  martyr,  Richard  Langhorne,  barrister  of  the  Inner  Temple,  who 
fell  a  victim  to  the  machinations  of  the  Green  Ribbon  Club,  worked  by  means 
of  the  perjuries  of  Gates,  Dugdale,  Bedloe  and  Prance,  and  suffered  at  Tyburn 
in  1679.  The  will  of  James  Langhorne,  who  was  probably  employed  in  some 
professional  capacity  by  Lord  Molyneux,  at  Croxteth,  and  had  thus  brought 
Miss  Langhorne  into  Lancashire,  was  proved  in  1682.  The  name  is  otherwise 
foreign  to  this  county.  It  may  account  for  a  relic  of  the  martyr  in  a  cross  having 
been  preserved  in  this  locality  to  the  present  time,  now  being  in  the  possession 
of  Mr  James  Barton,  of  Weld  Bank.

1  John  Harrison  and  Alice,  or  Aloysia.his  wife,  previously  resided  at  Windle, 
in  the  parish  of  Prescot,  where  their  son,  Matthias,  was  bom,  and  baptized 
6  March,  1638,  by  the  Rev.  Peter  Travis  alias  Barber,  who  may  have  been  a 
relative  and  suggested  Matthias  in  memory  of  his  own  grandfather,  Matthew 
Travis  of  Windle,  who  underwent  so  much  persecution  during  the  reign  of 
Elizabeth.  Matthias  Harrison  was  ordained  priest  at  Rome  in  1665,  came  to  the 
mission  in  1666  (Foley,  Records  S.J.,  vi,  403),  and  died  in  the  village  of  Uphol- 
land,  near  Wigan,  16  Dec,  1675,  and  was  buried  there  two  days  later  {Chap- 
ter Records  MS.). 

2  ^j-g  Lathom  was  probably  the  mother  of  Dr  Richard  Lathom,  of  Aintree 
House,  whose  wife  Judith  opened  a  school  at  Liverpool  during  the  reign  of 
James  II,  and  received  a  royal  mandate  in  its  favour  in  1686,  after  she  and  her 
husband  had  been  prosecuted  under  the  penal  laws  for  keeping  a  school  in 
Liverpool  (Picton's  Memorials  of  Liverpool,  i,  132).  He  appears  in  the  recusant 
rolls  for  1679,  seq.,  as  residing  in  Aintree.  He  had  a  chapel  in  his  house,  and 
after  his  death  some  of  the  pictures  were  removed  to  the  chapel  in  Ned  Howard's 
house  in  Little  Crosby.  Richard  Lathom,  surgeon,  of  Aintree,  was  buried  at 
Walton-on-the-Hill  24  June,  17 13,  the  corpse  being  carried  to  the  church  in 
the  coach  of  Nicholas  Blundell,  of  Crosby  Hall,  who  was  one  of  his  executors 
(Blundeil's  Diary,  pp.  91,  107,  115,  120-2).

^  The  Hawardens  of  Widnes  returned  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of  1613 
and  1665.  The  family  had  always  been  staunch  to  the  faith,  and  gave  many 
priests  to  the  Church.  John  Hawarden,  who  was  sixty  years  of  age  in  1665. 
died  in  1667  or  1668,  and  was  succeeded  by  his  son  and  namesake,  the  one  of 
the  text,  Jane  n^e  Culcheth,  being  the  widow  of  his  great  uncle,  Thomas  Hawar- 
den, a  younger  son  of  John  Hawarden,  of  Widnes,  by  his  second  wife.  About  this 
time  a  younger  son  founded  a  branch  of  the  family  at  Upton,  in  Widnes  cum 
Appleton,  and  the  parent  line,  of  Lower  House  in  Widnes,  lords  of  the  manor, 
again  divided  into  two  families,  the  elder  line  taking  the  name  of  Hawarden- 
GilUbrand,  after  marrying  with  the  heiress  of  Gillibrand  of  Gillibrand  Hall,  and 
the  younger  the  name  of  Hawarden  ffazakerley,  after  marrying  the  heiress  of 
the  ffazakerleys,  of  Fazakerley  Hall.  All  these  properties  were  eventually 
united  in  18 14  in  the  person  of  Henry  Hawarden  Gillibrand  ffazakerley,  about 
which  time  this  hitherto  staunch  Catholic  family  lapsed  into  Anglicanism, 
nominally  through  a  difference  with  the  priest  at  Chorley  declining  to  allow 
the  squire  to  smoke  in  chapel.  One  misfortune  after  another  quickly  followed, 
and  the  family  became  extinct  in  the  male  line  upon  the  tragic  death,  through 
a  coal-pit  explosion,  of  the  young  squire,  Henry  Hawarden  Gillibrand  ffaza- 
kerley, in  the  middle  of  last  century,  after  which  all  the  estates  were  dis- 
persed.

1  Margaret,  dau.  of  Edward,  second  son  of  Edward  Norreys,  of  Speke  Hall, 
became  the  second  wife  of  Edward  Ireland,  of  Lydiate  Hall,  who  died  i  April, 
1637.  She  lived  to  a  great  age,  continuing  to  pay  her  fines  for  recusancy,  as  all 
her  family  and  her  husband's  had  done,  till  her  death  in  1695.  The  first  wife  of 
Edward  Ireland  was  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Richard  Biddulph,  of  Biddulph  Hall, 
CO.  Stafford.  The  Irelands  of  Lydiate,  descended  from  a  second  son  of  Sir  John 
de  Ireland,  of  The  Hutt  in  Hale,  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1657, 
The  widow's  son,  Laurence  Ireland,  born  about  1634,  married  Anne,  dau.  of 
Edward  Scarisbrick,  of  Scarisbrick  Hall,  by  whom  he  had  two  daughters,  Mar- 
garet, the  wife  of  Sir  Charles  Anderton,  of  Lostock  Hall,  Bart,  and  Katharine, 
a  nun  at  Dunkirk.  After  his  wife's  death,  in  1663,  Laurence  Ireland  became  a 
Jesuit,  and  died  at  York  in  1673,  when  the  Lydiate  estate  passed  to  the  Ander- 
tons.  A  picture  of  the  beautiful  old  black  and  white  hall,  with  its  full  history 
and  pedigrees  of  its  various  owners,  will  be  found  in  Gibson's  Lydiate  Hall  and 
its  Associations,  1876. 

*  Robert  Molyneux,  of  The  Wood,  in  Melling,  returned  a  pedigree  at  the 
Visitation  of  1664,  being  then  of  the  age  of  twenty-five.  He  married  Frances, 
dau.  and  heir  of  William  Lathom,  of  Mosborough  Hall,  in  Rainford,  to  which 
he  removed  and  died  in  1680.  His  son  and  namesake  succeeded  to  both  estates 
and  married  Anne,  dau.  of  Sir  James  Poole,  of  Poole  Hall,  co.  Chester,  Bart,  and 
his  son  and  heir,  William  Molyneux,  seems  finally  to  have  abandoned  The  Wood 
as  a  residence.  The  latter  married  Frances,  dau.  of  James  Gorsuch,  of  Gorsuch

Hall,  and  dying  11  Mch,  1744,  the  family  became  extinct  in  the  male  line,  the 
extensive  estates  devolving  upon  his  dau.  and  sole  heiress,  Frances,  who  in 
1752  conveyed  them  in  marriage  to  Sir  Edward  Blount,  of  Sodington,  co. 
Worcester,  Bart.  The  Molyneux  family  of  The  Wood,  always  staunch  to  the 
faith  like  the  parent  stock,  was  descended  from  a  second  son  of  the  Sefton  line, 
and  in  1 567  returned  a  pedigree  of  fourteen  generations. 

^  Edward  Tatlock,  of  Kirkby,  yeo.,  a  recusant  in  1626,  had  a  son,  John, 
baptized  at  Walton  in  161 3.  He  may  be  identical  with  the  Edward  named  in 
the  text.  The  family  resided  at  Tatlock  House,  in  Kirkby.  John  Tatlock,  late  in 
the  sixteenth  or  early  in  the  seventeenth  century,  leased  Cunscough,  in  Melling, 
from  the  Irelands  of  Lydiate,  and  his  grandson  and  namesake  returned  a  pedi- 
gree at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  being  then  forty-four,  and  his  son,  John,  ten 
years  of  age.  The  elder  John  died  in  1675,  and  the  son  in  17 12.  Of  the  Kirkby 
line  were  Jane  Tatlock,  who  married  Hamlet  Mascy  of  the  Rixton  Hall  family 
13  Jan.,  1639;  Henry  Tatlock,  a  recusant  in  1679,  and  Thomas  and  Richard  in 
1 7 16 — all  of  Walton-cum-Fazakerley.  Thomas  Tatlock,  of  Fazakerley,  yeo., 
married  Mary,  only  dau.  of  Henry  Eccles,  of  Meanfield,  in  Win  wick,  gent.,  by 
Anne,  dau.  and  coheir  of  Richard  Blackburne,  of  Stockenbridge  Manor,  and  had 
two  sons,  Thomas  Tatlock,  of  Tatlock  House,  in  Kirkby,  dyer,  a  Catholic 
non-juror  in  17 17,  and  Richard  Tatlock,  of  Prescot,  gent.  The  former  mar- 
ried Ellen  Fazakerley,  of  Fazakerley,  and  had  two  sons,  Thomas  and  Henry. 
The  latter,  born  in  1709,  became  a  Jesuit,  and  spent  his  missionary  career 
in  his  native  district,  and  used  the  alias  of  Forster.  For  many  years,  certainly 
between  1741  and  1752,  according  to  Bishop  Dicconson's  list,  he  resided  with 
his  father,  but  also  attended  to  another  mission,  probably  Lydiate  Hall.  He 
was  still  residing  at  Tatlock  House  with  his  brother  in  1767.  He  finally  re- 
moved to  Moor  Hall,  and  either  died  there  or  at  Tatlock  in  1771.  His  nephew 
or  grandnephew,  James  Tatlock,  went  to  Douay  College  in  1778  to  study  for 
the  Church,  but  left  six  years  later,  obtained  a  dispensation  from  his  college 
oath,  married  a  sister  of  the  Rev.  James  Lancaster  of  Chester,  and  set  up  some 
kind  of  cotton  business  there,  which,  proving  unsuccessful,  he  relinquished, 
and  went  to  live  for  a  time  with  his  brother-in-law,  John  Lancaster,  watch  and 
clock  manufacturer  at  Prescot.  He  then  opened  an  academy  for  young  gentle- 
men at  Scholes  Hall,  and  subsequently  leased  Cowley  Hill  in  Scholes,  where 
he  died  4  Feb.,  181 5,  His  school  was  continued  by  Mr  Robinson,  who  removed  it 
to  Woolton  Grove  about  1823.  Mr  John  Tatlock,  coroner  for  Chester,  and  his 
brother,  the  Very  Rev.  Thomas  Tatlock,  canon  of  Shrewsbury,  and  formerly 
professor  at  Ushaw  for  very  many  years,  who  died  at  Chester  4  Mch,  1899,  aged 
seventy-two,  were  the  last  representatives  of  this  family.

ton, upon  succeeding  to  the  Eccleston  Hall  estates,  and  died  in  Dec,  1742 ,  when 
the  Gorsuch  and  Eccleston  estates  passed  to  Bcisil  Thomas  Scarisbrick,  of 
Scarisbrick  Hall,  who  assumed  the  name  of  Eccleston.  John's  widow  then  re- 
moved to  Cowley  Hill,  in  Eccleston,  where  she  died  15  June,  1743,  aged  eighty- 
one.  The  Gorsuch  family  was  always  recusant. 

1  Daughter  of  Christopher  Gradell,  of  Barbies  Moor,  in  Ulnes  Walton,  the 
representative  of  a  very  ancient  family.  Her  brother,  Thomas  Gradell,  alias 
Middleton,  a  Douay  priest,  died  in  Oct.,  1672,  at  an  advanced  age.  Her  nephew, 
Christopher,  married,  first,  a  Nelson  of  Fairhurst  Hall,  and,  secondly,  a  Winckley 
of  Banister  Hall,  and  had  issue  by  both  marriages,  but  as  his  sons  (by  the 
second  wife)  died  s.p.,  the  youngest,  Christopher,  a  priest,  dying  at  Sheffield 
25  Sept.,  1758,  aged  fifty-nine,  the  daughters  became  coheiresses,  one  of  whom 
married  Humplirey  Orrell,  of  Blackbrook. 

2  The  Heskeths,  of  Aughton  Hall,  lords  of  the  manors  of  Litherland  and 
Aughton,  were  descended  from  the  Heskeths,  of  Hesketh,  Rufford,  etc.,  and 
returned  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of  161 3  and  1664,  Bartholomew  being  of 
the  age  of  sixty-four  at  the  latter  date,  and  his  son  Gabriel  twenty-three.  The 
father,  who  appears  in  earlier  recusant  rolls,  married,  first,  Anne,  dau.  of  Sir 
Cuthbert  Halsall,  of  Halsall  Hall,  by  Dorothy,  natural  dau,  of  Henry  Stanley 
Earl  of  Derby,  and,  secondly,  Alice,  dau.  of  Edward  Pilkington,  of  Coppull.  By 
the  first  wife  he  had  three  sons,  the  above  Gabriel,  who  married  Alice,  dau.  of 
Edward  Ireland,  of  Lydiate  Hall,  and  appears  to  have  died  s.p.,  Bartholomew, 
and  Alexander,  named  in  the  text,  who  seems  eventually  to  have  inherited  the 
Aughton  and  Uplitherland  manors,  and  to  have  resided  at  the  latter  at  the  time 
of  his  death  in  1708.  Alexander's  son  and  namesake  apostatized,  and  was  made 
a  justice  of  the  peace  for  the  county.  He  soon  came  to  grief,  and  disposed  of  his 
estates  of  Aughton  and  Uplitherland  in  171 8  to  John  Plumbe,  an  eminent 
Liverpool  lawyer.  He  was  twice  married,  and  by  one  of  his  wives  left  a  son, 
Thomas,  who  died  at  Aughton  in  1741 ;  by  the  other  he  had  a  daughter,  married 
to  Edward  Molyneux,  of  Formby,  younger  son  of  Richard  Molyneux,  of  New 
Hall  (by  Eliz.,  dau.  of  Robert  Harrington,  of  Huyton,  which  manor  was  sub- 
sequently inherited  by  her  grandson,  the  squire  of  New  Hall),  and  her  son, 
Edward  Molyneux  alias  Harrington,  bom  10  Mch,  1700,  was  ordained  priest 
at  Douay,  and  died  chaplain  at  Moor  Hall,  Aughton,  20  Oct.,  1739. 

3  Edward  Stanley,  of  Moor  Hall,  in  Aughton,  returned  a  very  imperfect 
pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  being  then  of  the  age  of  forty.  His  wife  was 
Margaret,  dau.  of  Thomas  Gerard,  of  Gerard  Hall,  in  Aughton,  and  at  the  time

of  the  Visitation  had  two  daughters,  Anne,  aged  thirteen,  and  Elizabeth.  He 
was  possibly  away  at  this  time,  for  he  appears  on  later  rolls  down  to  1684.  His 
father,  Peter  Stanley,  a  staunch  recusant  like  all  the  rest  of  the  family,  married 
Eliz.,  dau.  of  Thomas  Wolfall,  of  Wolfall  Hall,  in  Huyton,  by  Mary,  dau.  of  Sir 
Richard  Molyneux,  of  Sefton.  Peter's  grandfather  and  namesake  was  the  second 
son  of  Sir  William  Stanley,  of  Hooton,  co.  Chester,  and  acquired  Aughton  and 
Bickerstaffe.  Thomas  Stanley,  named  in  the  text,  was  one  of  Edward's  younger 
brothers,  Edward's  daughter  and  ultimate  heiress,  Anne,  married  her  relative, 
Richard  Wolfall,  of  Wolfall  Hall,  who  died  i  Feb.,  17 18,  s.p.,  at  Moor  Hall, 
where  she  continued  to  reside  till  her  death,  her  will  being  dated  Sept.  14,  1731. 
By  a  spiritual  will,  dated  9  Oct.,  1728,  she  left  certain  funds  for  the  use  of  the 
secular  priest  serving  the  mission  at  Moor  Hall  or  neighbourhood.  This  mission, 
which  may  be  said  to  have  been  continuous  from  the  reign  of  Elizabeth,  is  now 
represented  by  that  of  St  Mary's,  Aughton.  Moor  Hall  then  reverted  to  the 
Stanleys,  of  Hooton,  and  after  the  breaking  up  of  Hooton  Hall,  became  the 
residence  of  Lady  Stanley,  whose  two  sons.  Fathers  Henry  and  Thomas 
Stanley,  S.J.,  lived  there  between  1763  and  1786,  in  which  latter  year  the 
former  died  at  Moor  Hall.  This  ancient  and  picturesque  mansion  was  ultimately 
sold  by  Sir  William  Massey  Stanley,  Bart,  in  1841,  to  John  Rosson,  J. P.  and 
D.L.,  a  Liverpool  barrister  and  a  Catholic,  and  was  sold  by  his  sister  in  1873. 

^  Richard  W^olfall,  of  Wolfall  Hall,  in  Huyton,  returned  a  decidedly  unsatis- 
factory pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  being  then  of  the  age  of  twenty-one, 
and  his  son,  William,  one.  No  doubt  the  William  named  in  the  text  was  one  of 
the  family.  Thomas  Wolfall  alias  Butler,  a  secular  priest,  who  died  at  Ince 
Blundell  in  1720,  aged  forty-five,  was  brother  of  the  Richard  Wolfall  men- 
tioned in  the  preceding  note.  It  is  probable  that  Father  John  Wolfall,  S.J., 
who  died  in  1742,  aged  sixty,  was  another  brother.  After  the  death  of  William 
W^olfall,  of  Wolfall  Hall,  who  was  buried  at  Aughton,  12  Oct.,  1720,  the  estate 
passed  to  the  Harringtons  of  Huyton  Hey,  one  of  whom,  Robert,  had  married 
Anne,  daughter  of  Thomas  Wolfall,  and  through  them  Wolfall  Hall  passed  to 
the  Molyneux  family  of  New  Hall. 

2  Thomas  Gerard,  of  Gerard  Hall,  in  Aughton,  died  in  1671.  His  daughter, 
Margaret,  married  Edward  Stanley,  of  Moor  Hall.  Lyonel  Gerard,  mentioned 
later  on  in  the  text,  was  a  yeoman  in  Aughton,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1669. 
He  possibly  derived  from  the  same  family,  which  was  descended  from  the 
Gerards  of  Bryn. 

^  Robert  Walshe,  of  Walshe  Hall,  a  quaint  edifice  in  Aughton  formerly  sur- 
rounded by  a  moat,  was  son  of  Thomas  Walshe,  of  the  same,  by  Frances, 
daughter  of  Richard  Molyneux,  of  New  Hall.  His  will  was  proved  in  1668.  His 
grandfather  and  namesake,  and  Isabel,  his  wife,  were  recusants  1613-36,  and 
probably  earlier.  In  the  rolls  for  1682-4  Thomas  Walshe  was  in  possession  of  the 
estate.  The  hall  is  now  a  farmhouse. 

*  The  Aspinwalls  of  Aspinwall  Hall  in  Aughton  were  recusants  from  the 
time  of  Elizabeth.  Shortly  before  this  date  the  family  removed  to  Hale  upon 
the  marriage  of  Edward  Aspinwall,  with  Eleanor,  sister  and  coheiress  of  Sir 
Gilbert  Ireland,  of  Hale  Hall,  and  their  son,  Gilbert  Aspinwall,  succeeded  to 
the  Hale  estates.  The  latter's  son,  Edward,  died  in  17 19,  leaving  a  son,  Ireland 
Aspinwall,  and  a  daughter,  Mary.  The  son  died  unmarried  in  1733,  and  his  sister 
became  sole  heiress,  married  Isaac  Green,  upon  whose  death,  in   1749,  the

sionally appear  in  the  recusant  rolls.  The  Aughton  branch  was  always  staunch 
to  the  faith.  The  will  of  Humphrey  Morecroft,  of  Ormskirk,  was  proved  in 
1608.  At  the  Inq.  post  mortem  of  William  Morecroft,  of  Aughton,  4  Augt,

1  Richard  Lathom,  of  Parbold  Hall  and  Allerton  Hall,  returned  a  pedigree 
at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  being  then  of  the  age  of  forty-one,  and  his  son,  Thomas, 
seventeen,  younger  sons  being  Richard,  William,  and  Christopher.  His  wife  was 
Katherine,  dau.  of  Sir  William  Massey,  of  Puddington  Hall,  co.  Chester.  The 
family  was  descended  from  the  Lathoms,  of  Lathom,  the  ancestors  of  the  Earls 
of  Derby.  They  seem  to  have  acquired  the  manor  of  Allerton  at  an  early  period. 
Richard  Lathom's  father,  Thomas  Lathom,  died  at  Parbold,  in  1628,  a  staunch 
recusant  like  all  his  family.  The  son  rebuilt  Allerton  Hall  in  1659,  though  his 
estates  had  been  forfeited  as  a  recusant  and  royalist,  and  he  had  had  to  com- 
pound for  them  in  1649-50.  Notwithstanding,  the  Cromwellian  Government 
sold  Allerton  to  John  Sumpner,  of  Midhurst,  in  Surrey,  in  1653,  with  whose  son, 
Charles,  the  Lathoms  came  to  some  arrangement  in  1669,  which,  however,  did 
not  prevent  the  estate  passing  finally  from  the  family  in  the  following  year. 
Christopher  Lathom,  the  secular  priest  who  signed  the  declaration  of  the  Lan- 
cashire clergy  3  Mch,  1697,  is  probably  identical  with  Richard  Lathom's  fourth 
son.  Henry  Lathom  alias  Anderton,  another  secular  priest,  born  about  1626, 
and  ordained  at  Piacenza,  was  probably  Richard's  younger  brother.  All  their 
estates  have  been  dispersed,  and  the  family  is  lost  in  the  crowd.

1  Thomas  Mossock  was  the  eldest  son  and  heir  of  Henry  Mossock,  of  Kenis- 
cough-Hevenhead  Hall,  m  Melling,  who  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation 
of  1664,  by  Jane,  dau.  and  coheir  of  John  More,  son  and  heir  of  Edward  More, 
of  Bank  Hall.  At  the  time  of  the  Visitation  Thomas  Mossock  was  forty -nine. 
He  resided  on  the  estate  of  his  second  wife,  Anne,  youngest  dau.  and  coheir  of 
Richard  Urmston,  lord  of  West  Leigh,  but  had  no  issue  by  her.  His  first  wife 
was  Anne,  dau.  of  Thomas  Beriftgton,  of  Mote  Hall,  co.  Salop,  by  whom  he  had 
a  daughter,  Magdalen,  who  died  in  infancy,  and  hence  upon  his  death  in  1677 
the  estates  passed  to  his  sister  (or  her  heirs) ,  Elizabeth,  wife  of  Thomas  Walm- 
esley,  of  Showley  Hall.  His  only  brother,  Richard,  bom  in  1627,  was  ordained 
priest  at  Douay,  and  used  the  alias  of  More  on  the  mission.  He  was  a  member  of 
the  Chapter,  Archdeacon  of  Lancashire,  and  also  treasurer  of  the  Clergy  Fund, 
and  died  20  Mch,  1673-4.  He  is  credited  with  having  written  the  curious  inscrip- 
tion for  his  father  in  1661,  describing  him  "  ^tatis  suae  74  "  (whereas  Dug- 
dale  at  his  Visitation  of  1664  put  him  as  seventy-four  in  that  year),  which 
appears  on  a  brass  plate  in  the  parish  church  of  Ormskirk,  headed:  "  Jesus 
^Iaria,  God  sauve  the  King,"  and  finishing  "  Ad  Majorem  Dei  Gloriam,  Richard 
MosoCk  scripsit."  It  refers  to  Henry's  ancestors  having  been  buried  there  for 
385  years.  Another  brass  plate  in  Aughton  parish  church  bears  a  somewhat 
similar  inscription,  commencing  "  Jesus  Salvator,"  and  ending  "  Richard 
Mosock,  1686.  God  save  the  King.  To  the  Greater  Glorye  of  God."  Unless 
there  was  some  error  on  the  part  of  the  engraver,  this  would  appear  to  have 
been  an  imitation  of  the  Ormskirk  inscription  by  Richard  Mossock,  of  Bicker- 
staff  e,  who  died  in  1692,  The  family  had  always  held  property  at  Bickerstaffe. 
Their  ancient  residence,  now  a  farmhouse,  was  Mossock  Hall,  in  Aughton. 

2  Eleanor  was  sister  to  Mrs  Mossock.  The  Urmstons  of  West  Leigh  were  a 
very  ancient  family,  and  always  true  to  the  faith.  A  long  pedigree  of  the  family 
was  entered  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  probably  at  the  instance  of  one  or  other 
of  the  husbands  of  the  coheiresses  of  Richard  Urmston,  who  died  in  1659,  aged 
sixty-nine. 

3  The  Liptrotts  appear  in  recusant  rolls  from  the  commencement.  Two  of 
them  in  modern  times  became  priests,  Peter  and  Richard,  sons  of  William  Lip- 
trott,  of  Bold,  and  his  wife,  Jane,  dau.  of  George  Gillow,  of  Moor  House,  Newton- 
cum-Scales,  the  former,  a  canon  of  Salford,  dying  in  1893,  aged  sixty-four,  and 
the  latter  in  1878,  aged  forty-four. 

*  The  Culcheths,  of  Culcheth  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Win  wick,  returned  pedi- 
grees at  the  Visitations  of  1567  and  1664.  At  the  latter  date  Thomas  Culcheth, 
who  appears  in  the  later  rolls  till  his  death  in  Dec,  1683,  was  thirty-six  years  of 
age.  His  wife,  Anne,  dau.  of  James  Bradshaigh,  of  Haigh  Hall,  and  sister  of  Sir 
Roger  Bradshaigh,  now  represented  by  the  Earl  of  Crawford  and  Balcarres,

Piers  Mostyn,  of  Talacre,  Bart,  but  died  s.p.  in  1747,  and  John,  a  barrister  of 
Gray's  Inn,  who  died  s.p.,  and  two  daughters,  Benedictine  nuns  at  Dunkirk. 
William  Culcheth,  younger  brother  to  Thomas  of  the  text,  died  this  very  year, 
1667,  a  Jesuit  at  Ghent,  and  possibly  his  absence  from  England  on  this  account 
may  account  for  the  name  of  Thomas  not  appearing  in  the  roll. 

1  Probably  widow  of  Henry  Travis,  of  Culcheth,  chapman,  whose  will 
was  proved  in  1665,  and  perhaps  mother  of  Edward  Travis  or  Travers,  alias 
Hill,  admitted  to  the  English  College  at  Rome  in  161 9  as  a  con  victor,  and  left 
in  162 1. 

2  Although  the  father  appears  to  have  lived  to  1674,  Thomas,  the  son,  signed 
the  pedigree  returned  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  being  then  of  the  age  of 
twenty-seven.  The  Lancasters  had  held  the  manor  of  Rainhill  from  an  early 
period.  John,  aged  three  at  the  Visitation  of  161 3  (a  pedigree  also  appearing  in 
that  of  1567),  married  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Edward  Ditchfield,  of  Ditton  Hall, 
and  his  eldest  son,  Thomas,  mar.  Elizabeth,  dau.  and  coheir  of  William 
Mere,  of  Mere  Hall,  Cheshire.  The  latter,  having  been  almost  drowned  in 
a  brook,  died  a  few  days  later,  in  1679.  His  grandson,  John  Lancaster,  a 
Catholic  non-juror  in  1717,  resided  at  Rainhill  Hall,  and  his  namesake,  and 
probably  grandson,  sold  the  hall  about  1783,  which  after  passing  through  the 
Fleetwoods  and  Beaumonts,  was  purchased,  just  before  her  death,  by  the  Mar- 
chioness Stapleton-Bretherton,  Mary,  daughter  and  heiress  of  Mr  Bartholomew 
Brctherton,  the  great  stage-coach  proprietor,  of  Rainhill  House,  who  died  in 
1857,  aged  eighty-two,  having  acquired  much  of  the  old  Lancaster  property  in 
Rainhill.  Her  first  husband  was  William  Gerard,  second  son  of  Sir  William 
Gerard,  eleventh  bart,  of  Bryn,  and  elder  brother  of  the  first  Baron  Gerard, 
and  after  his  death,  s.p.,  in  1844,  she  married,  secondly,  the  Hon.  Gilbert  Staple- 
ton,  brother  of  Lord  Beaumont.  Eventually  she  assumed  her  paternal  name  in 
addition  to  that  of  her  husband,  was  created  a  marchioness  by  the  Pope,  and 
died  childless  in  1883.  The  Lancasters  were  always  staunch  recusants,  and  Mass 
was  often  said  in  the  chapel  in  the  hall.  Several  of  the  family  were  priests  and 
nuns.

^Dorothy,  dau.  of  Sir  Richard  Fenwick,  Bart,  of  Meldon,  co.  Northumber- 
land, whose  nephew.  Sir  John  Fenwick,  was  executed  in  Wilham  Ill's  reign, 
brought  her  husband,  Edward  More,  of  Bank  Hall,  in  Kirkdale,  a  portion  of 
;^700  a  year  in  land.  More  Hall,  the  site  of  which  is  now  the  centre  of  Liverpool, 
was  the  seat  of  the  Mores  for  twenty  generations,  and  after  it  was  superseded 
by  Bank  Hall,  erected  in  the  thirteenth  century,  it  was  frequently  used  as  a 
jointure-house.  The  family,  which  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1567, 
had  up  to  that  time  retained  the  faith,  but  the  squire  in  the  time  of  Elizabeth 
was  a  temporizer,  and  his  descendants  became  rank  Puritans,  the  father  of  the 
Edward  More  of  the  text,  the  author  of  the  "Moore  Rental,"  having  the  unenvi- 
able distinction  of  being  one  of  the  regicides.  Through  this  circumstance,  the 
intention  to  create  the  son  a  baronet  in  1 660  did  not  finally  pass  under  the  great 
seal  till  1675.  After  the  death,  in  1673,  of  Sir  Edward's  Catholic  wife,  Dorothy, 
by  whom  he  had  four  sons,  the  second  son  apparently  being  the  one  of  the  text, 
Richard  Fenwick  More,  who  died  28  June,  1672,  he  married,  secondly,  a  daughter 
of  Sir  Thomas  Bloodworth,  by  whom  he  had  one  daughter.  His  eldest  son  and 
namesake  predeceased  him,  and  the  baronetcy  passed  to  the  third.  Sir  Cleave 
More,  who  speedily  dissipated  his  estates,  and  the  family  became  extinct  upon 
the  death  of  the  fifth  baronet  in  18 10.  To  one  of  Sir  Edward's  ancestors  is 
attributed  the  story  of  "The  Dragon  of  Wantley." 

2Roger  Breres  (Breers  or  Bryers),  of  Walton  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Walton- 
on-the-Hill,  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  being  then  sixty  years 
of  age.  He  married,  first,  Margerie,  dau.  of  Robert  ffazakerley,  of  Fazakerley 
Hall,  by  Anne,  dau.  of  Edward  Molyneux,  of  The  Wood,  by  whom  he  had  two 
sons,  and,  secondly,  Alice,  dau.  of  Richard  Hulme,  of  Maghull  Hall,  who  appears 
with  her  sister,  Elizabeth  Hulme,  in  the  text.  Roger  Breres  died  in  this  very  year 
1667.  The  family  was  very  ancient,  and  obtained  Walton  through  the  marriage 
of  Roger  Breres,  of  Chorley,  with  Blanch,  dau.  and  coheir  of  Richard  Cross,  of 
Cross  Hall,  by  Elizabeth,  dau.  and  coheir  of  Roger  Walton,  lord  of  Walton. 
They  appear  in  the  rolls  from  their  commencement,  and  were  always  staunch 
to  the  faith.  Roger's  eldest  son,  Lawrence,  mar.  Mary,  dau.  of  Sir  Cuthbert 
Clifton,  of  Lytham  Hall,  and  relict  of  William  Lathom,  of  Mosborough  Hall, 
but  died  s.p.,  and  was  buried  at  Walton,  2  Nov.,  1663.  The  second  son,  Robert, 
appearing  in  the  text,  aged  thirty-two  in  1664,  mar.,  first,  Mary,  dau.  of  John 
Molyneux,  of  New  Hall,  by  whom  he  had  sons,  Roger,  of  whom  hereafter,  and 
Lawrence;  and  daughters,  Catherine,  a  nun  at  Gravelines,  and  Elizabeth. 
Lawrence  was  ordained  priest  at  Douay,  and  died  in  London,  13  Nov.,  1744. 
Robert,  who  died  at  Wigan  in  1708,  mar.,  secondly,  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Richard 
Butler,  of  Rawcliffe  Hall,  by  Catherine,  dau.  of  Thomas  Carus,  of  Halton 
Hall,  and  relict  of  Lawrence  Hoghton,  and  had  a  son,  Thomas,  born^in  1692,  and 
three  daughters,  Bridget,  Mary  and  Margery.  Roger  Breers,  Robert's  eldest  son, 
by  his  wife  Bridget  had  a  son,  Lawrence,  who  joined  with  his  father  in  1746 
in  the  sale  of  the  Walton  Hall  estate,  after  which  the  family  sank  into 
obscurity. 

3  The  ffazakerleys  of  Spellow  House,  in  Walton,  and  of  Fazakerley  Hall, 
staunch  recusants  and  royalists,  returned  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of  161 3 
and  1664.  William  was  the  third  son  of  Robert  ffazakerley  by  Anne,  dau.  of

Edward  Molyneux,  of  The  Wood.  His  eldest  brother,  Captain  Nicholas  ffaza- 
kerley,  born  in  1600,  was  at  the  English  College  at  Rome  from  1623  to  1626,  and 
was  slain  at  Liverpool  in  the  royal  cause  in  Oct.,  1643.  Another  brother,  the 
second,  Thomas  Fazakerley  alias  Ashton,  born  about  161 1,  was  ordained  priest 
at  Rome,  and  died  chaplain  to  Lord  Molyneux  at  Croxteth  Hall,  22  Mch,  1664-5. 
The  captain  was  succeeded  by  his  eldest  son  and  namesake,  who  married 
Winefrid,  dau.  of  Edward  Tarleton,  of  Aigburth  Hall,  and  his  grandson, 
Robert,  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717,  dying  without  issue,  about  1730,  the 
estate  passed  to  his  sister  and  heiress,  Mary  ffazakerley,  who  mar.,  first.  Cap- 
tain Bryan  Hawarden,  and,  secondly,  Thomas  Mostyn,  younger  son  of  Sir  Piers 
Mostyn,  of  Talacre,  Bart.  This  lady  died  in  1775,  aged  seventy,  leaving  a  son, 
John  Hawarden,  who  assumed  the  name  of  ffazakerley,  and  was  succeeded 
by  his  son,  Lieut.-Col.  Samuel  Hawarden  ffazakerley,  who,  dying  20  June, 
18 1 3,  s.p.,  devised  his  estates  to  Henry  Hawarden  Gillibrand,  infant  son  of 
Thomas  Hawarden  Gillibrand,  of  Gillibrand  Hall.  He  was  born  6  May,  1808, 
assumed  the  name  of  ffazakerley  by  sign  manual  11  June,  1814,  and  was 
brought  up  a  Protestant  owing  to  his  father's  unhappy  negligence.  Thus  the 
extensive  estates  of  these  three  ancient  Catholic  families  were  united — only 
to  be  dispersed  in  the  next  generation,  and  culminating  with  the  destruction  and 
extinction  of  the  family. 

^  Ellen  Hawarden  (pronounced  Harden),  wife  of  Thomas  Hawarden,  of 
Croxteth  (probably  steward  to  Lord  Molyneux),  second  son  of  John  Hawarden, 
of  Fenistrete,  Appleton,  in  Widnes,  was  dau.  of  Edward  Tarleton,  of  Aigburth 
Hall;  and  Maria  Tarleton,  named  in  the  text,  was  probably  her  sister.  Her  son, 
Edward  Hawarden,  D.D.,  was  the  famous  Douay  theologian. 

2 Several  members  of  this  family  joined  the  ecclesiastical  state.  James 
Dennett,  bom  in  1702,  son  of  James  Dennett,  of  Lydiate,  a  Catholic  non-juror 
in  1717,  became  a  Jesuit,  was  serving  Houghton  Hall,  Yorks,  in  1734,  and  died 
at  Bury  St  Edmunds  in  1789.  Another  member  of  the  family,  Dom  Joseph 
Dennett,  the  Carthusian,  died  at  Nieuport  in  Dec,  1761.  Henry  Dennett,  son 
of  William  Dennett,  of  Lydiate,  by  Margaret,  dau.  of  William  Tarleton,  of 
Orrell,  yeoman,  born  in  1754,  was  ordained  priest  at  Douay,  and  after  serving 
Roundhay  and  Ugthorpe,  in  Yorkshire,  removed  to  Birchley,  in  Lancashire, 
where  he  died  in  1803.  His  nephew,  James,  son  of  William  Dennett,  of  Eccleston, 
and  his  wife,  Mary  Valentine,  bom  in  1767,  was  ordained  priest  at  Lisbon,  and 
died  at  Ormskirk  in  1845.  The  prioress  of  the  Regular  Canonesses  of  the  Holy 
Sepulchre  at  Liege,  Mary  Christina  Dennett,  died  in  1781,  and  her  sister, 
Helen  Teresa,  of  the  same  community,  died  in  1794,  aged  seventy-one.

2  John  Barker,  of  Halewood,  married  Susanna,  dau.  of  Henry  Tathom,  of 
Whiston,  gent.,  and  died  in  1672.  The  Halewood  family  probably  belonged  to 
the  Barkers  of  Dalton,  mentioned  later. 

^  Robert  ffrith,  of  Halewood,  was  still  on  the  rolls  in  1680. 

*  Alethea  Anderton  was  the  widow  of  Christopher  Anderton,  of  Lostock 
Hall,  the  royalist  captain  who  was  despatched  by  the  Earl  of  Derby  fromWigan 
to  try  and  carry  the  town  of  Bolton-le-Moors  by  assault.  He  has  generally  been 
identified  with  the  captain  of  his  name  who  so  stoutly  defended  Greenhalgh 
Castle  for  the  Earl  of  Derby  and  was  slain  in  1645,  but  this  is  apparently  an 
error,  for  in  165 1  administration  of  his  estate  was  granted  in  the  Prerogative 
Court  of  Canterbury  to  Robert  Harvey,  of  London,  gent.,  and  in  October  of 
that  year  his  son,  Francis  Anderton,  was  admitted  into  possession  of  Lostock. 
Captain  Anderton  was  twice  married.  His  first  wife  was  Agnes,  dau.  of  John 
Preston,  of  Preston  Patrick,  co.  Westmoreland,  and  of  the  Manor  of  Fumess,  co. 
Lancaster,  and  the  occasion  of  this  child  marriage,  in  1621,  was  celebrated  in  a 
long  poem  by  his  eminent  relative,  Lawrence  Anderton  alias  "  John  Brereley, 
Priest,"  known  at  Cambridge  as  "Silver-mouthed  Anderton."  After  the  prema-

in  or  about  1627,  Alethea,  third  dau.  of  Sir  Francis  Smith,  of  Wootton-Wawen, 
CO.  Warwick,  and  sister  to  Sir  Charles  Smith,  of  Wootton-Wawen,  co.  Warwick, 
and  of  Ashby  Folville,  co.  Leicester,  who  was  created  Baron  Carrington  in  1643. 
Her  sister,  Frances,  was  an  Augustinian  nun  at  I.ouvain.  Both  she  and  her 
husband  were  put  to  much  privation  by  the  forfeiture  of  Lostock  and  other 
estates.  Indeed,  after  her  husband's  death,  Mrs  Anderton,  who  went  to  reside 
at  Clitheroe,  had  scarcely  sufficient  to  maintain  herself  and  her  children,  of  whom 
she  had  fourteen.  To  make  her  cross  heavier  three  of  her  children  were  forcibly 
taken  from  her  to  be  brought  up  Protestants,  a  son  and  two  daughters.  The 
story  of  their  ill-treatment  and  eventual  recovery  by  their  mother  is  told  by 
Brother  Foley  in  his  Records  S.  /.,  Vol.  III.  One  of  the  girls,  Alethea,  became  an 
Augustinian  at  Louvain  in  1656,  and  the  other,  Dorothy,  died  through  the 
effects  of  her  hard  usage  in  1653.  The  boy  was  apparently  one  of  the  two  priests 
of  the  family,  either  Thurstan  or  Bruno.  Stephen  Anderton,  the  sixth  son,  bom 
in  1637,  married  Kath.,  second  dau.  of  Thomas  Tempest,  by  Ann,  dau.  and  heir 
of  Henry  Scrope,  of  Danby  Hall,  and  sister  to  Stephen  Tempest,  of  Broughton 
Hall,  CO.  York,  and  had  issue  a  son,  John,  who  was  professed  at  the  English 
Benedictine  monastery  at  Lambspring  under  the  religious  name  of  Michael,  and 
ordained  priest.  After  serving  the  mission  for  some  five  years  he  apostatized, 
and  forthwith,  without  further  ordination,  was  inducted  to  the  curacy  of  New 
Church,  Pendle,  July  30,  1721,  married  in  1725,  and  died  in  1742.  His  descend- 
ants became  lost  in  obscurity.  Mrs  Anderton's  eldest  son,  Sir  Francis,  bom  in 
1628,  married  in  1655  Eliz.,  dau.  and  coheir  of  Sir  Charles  Somerset,  C.B.,  of 
Troye,  co.  Monmouth,  second  surviving  son  of  the  Earl  of  Worcester,  and  in 
1677  was  created  a  baronet.  He  died  at  Paris  9  Feb.,  1678,  and  was  succeeded 
by  his  son.  Sir  Charles  Anderton,  second  baronet,  of  Lostock  and  Lydiate. 
Christian  Anderton,  named  in  the  text,  is  probably  an  error  of  the  transcriber 
for  Christopher,  born  in  1629,  who  was  a  widower  without  children  in  166S.  In 
1657  he  had  married  Anne,  dau.  of  Peter  Anderton,  of  Anderton  Hall,  but  she 
died  soon  afterwards.  Later  he  took  a  second  wife,  Grace,  but  she,  too,  had  no 
issue.  Thurstan,  the  priest,  was  serving  Lostock  Hall  in  1676,  and  subsequently 
assisted  at  Crank,  and  was  living  when  his  nephew.  Sir  Charles,  made  his  will  in 
169T.  It  does  not  appear  where  he  was  ordained.  His  brother,  Bruno,  was  sent 
to  the  English  College  at  Rome  in  1662  by  Lord  Carrington,  and  in  consequence 
adopted  that  name  as  his  alias.  He  was  ordained  in  1667,  returned  to  England  in 
1669,  and  died  May  19,  1723,  aged  eighty.  He  w^as  bom  during  the  Civil  War, 
when  his  parents  were  in  Wales. 

^Alexander  Osbaldeston,  of  Sunderland  Hall,  in  Balderstone,  married 
Holcroft,  dau.  of  Robert  Hesketh,  of  Rufford  Hall,  and  had  a  son,  John,  born 
in  1634,  and  seven  daughters.  He  was  aged  fifty-six  when  he  returned  his 
pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  showing  his  descent  from  his  great-grand-

father,  Richard,  of  Sunderland  Hall,  a  younger  son  of  Sir  Alexander  Osbalde- 
ston,  of  Osbaldeston  Hall,  by  his  second  wife,  Ellen,  dau,  of  Thomas  Tyldesley, 
of  Wardley  Hall.  He  died  in  April,  1681,  aged  seventy- two.  The  family  were 
staunch  recusants,  and  annually  appear  in  the  rolls,  Alexander's  grandson  and 
namesake  was  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717,  died  in  1729,  and  was  succeeded 
by  his  son  Alexander,  who  married  Cath.,  one  of  the  four  daughters  and 
coheiresses  of  John  Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall  and  Burne  Hall,  and  had  two 
sons,  Alexander,  M.D.,  of  Sunderland  Hall,  and  William.  Upon  the  death  of  the 
former,  in  1750,  the  estate,  which  had  been  heavily  mortgaged,  passed  from  the 
family,  and  Sunderland  Hall,  which  had  been  erected  in  1596,  was  eventually 
taken  down  and  replaced  by  a  farmhouse.  There  was  a  chapel  in  the  hall,  where 
Mass  was  said  throughout  the  days  of  persecution.  The  Rev,  Thomas  Brock- 
holes  was  reported  as  the  resident  priest  in  1690,  and  from  1743  till  his  im- 
prisonment in  York  Castle  in  1745,  Father  John  Joseph  Greene,  O.P.,  attended 
to  the  mission, 

^  John  Cunliffe,  of  Banks,  in  Great  Harwood,  died  in  March,  1691,  and  his 
widow,  Isabel,  of  "Harwood  Banks,"  in  June,  1708.  Their  son,  Richard  Cun- 
liffe, of  Great  Harwood,  yeoman,  was  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717.  It  is  said 
that  the  Cunliffes,  bankers,  of  Blackburn,  from  whom  derived  the  late  Sir 
William  Cunliffe  Brooks,  Bart,  were  descended  from  a  branch  of  this  family. 

^Cornelius,  bapt.  i4Sept.,  1622,  was  the  fifth  son  of  Cornelius  Towneley,  of 
Hapton,  son  of  Lawrence  Towneley.  It  was  probably  owing  to  their  being 
Catholics,  and  married  by  priests,  that  the  father  is  entered  in  the  registers  at 
Burnley  as  a  base  child  as  well  as  the  first  two  sons  of  the  elder  Cornelius,  after 
which  the  parson  seems  to  have  tired  and  entered  the  other  children  correctly. 
Cornelius  had  a  brother,  Ambrose,  born  in  1628. 

3 The  will  of  Jennet  Fraine,  of  Hapton,  was  proved  in  1684,  and  that  of 
William  Fraine,  of  the  same,  in  1698.

^The  will  of  Ralph  Rishton,  of  White  Ash,  in  Oswaldtwistle,  was  proved  in 
1666,  and  his  son  and  namesake  appears  in  the  rolls  until  1682,  in  which  year 
administration  to  his  estate  was  granted.  According  to  the  rolls  White  Ash  had 
sixty  acres  belonging  to  it.  These  Rishtons  were,  no  doubt,  descended  from  a 
younger  son  of  the  Rishtons  of  Pontalgh  Hall,  in  Oswaldtwistle,  deriving  from 
the  Rishtons,  of  Rishton  Hall  and  Dunkenhalgh. 

2  The  Holdens  had  resided  for  many  generations  at  Chaigley  Hall,  in  the 
parish  of  Mitton,  and  were  always  staunch  recusants.  John  Holden  appears  in 
the  rolls  till  his  death  in  1637,  leaving  by  his  wife  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Edward 
Worthington,  of  Wharles,  two  daughters,  Ann,  wife  of  Robert  Hesketh,  who 
died  s.p.,  and  Mary,  eventual  heiress,  wife  of  Thomas  Brockholes,  of  Claughton 
Hall.  After  the  death  of  Dr  Henry  Holden,  the  eminent  theologian,  the  manor 
of  Chaigley  was  sold,  in  1665,  to  Richard  Sherburne,  of  Stonyhurst.  Notwith- 
standing, some  of  the  family  continued  to  reside  at  Chaigley,  gradually  descend- 
ing in  social  scale.  Richard  Holden,  yeoman,  returned  a  leasehold  farm  of  forty 
acres  in  Chaigley  as  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  17 17.  There  were  several  notable 
priests  of  the  family. 

3  Richard  Sherburne,  of  Stonyhurst,  in  the  township  of  Aighton,  Bailey,  and 
Chaigley,  was  son  of  Richard  Sherburne,  of  the  same,  by  his  second  wife,  EUza- 
beth,  dau.  of  Thomas  Walmesley,  of  Dunkenhalgh.  He  was  baptized  at  Mitton 
3  July,  1626,  and  succeeded  to  the  extensive  family  estates  upon  the  death  of

Weld,  of  Lulworth  Castle,  co.  Dorset,  whose  great-grandson,  Thomas  Weld,  of 
Lulworth  Castle,  succeeded  to  the  Sherburne  estates  upon  the  death  of  the 
Duchess  of  Norfolk  in  1754,  and  in  1794  placed  Stonyhurst  at  the  disposal  of 
the  English  Jesuits  expelled  from  their  college  at  Liege  during  the  French  Revo- 
lution, to  whom  it  was  afterwards  conveyed  by  his  son,  Cardinal  Weld.  Sir 
Nicholas  Sherburne  died  16  Dec,  1717,  and  his  only  son,  Richard  Francis, 
having  died  at  the  age  of  nine  in  1702,  the  estates  passed  to  his  daughter,  Mary 
Frances  Winefred,  born  26  Nov.,  1692,  who  in  1709  became  the  wife  of  Thomas 
Howard,  eighth  Duke  of  Norfolk.  The  duchess  died  at  Ston^'-hurst  sme  prole  25 
Sept.,  1754,  and  the  Sherburne  estates  then  passed  to  her  aunt's  representative, 
Thomas  Weld,  as  previously  stated.  The  Sherburncs  returned  pedigrees  at  the 
various  Lancashire  Visitations. 

^Andrew  Snape,  tailor,  subsequently  removed  toMoorhcad,  Over  Wyres- 
dale,  where  he  died  in  171 5.  His  widow,  Margaret,  whose  maiden  name  was 
Parkinson,  was  a  Cathohc  non-juror  in  1717,  as  well  as  two  of  her  daughters, 
Ellen  Snape,  of  Moorhead,  spinster,  and  Elizabeth,  wife  of  John  Robinson,  of 
Lancaster,  joiner. 

^Seth  Jolly,  probably  son  of  Seth  Jolly,  of  Catforth,  who  died  in  1662,  was 
still  here  and  a  recusant  in  1680,  about  wliich  time  he  returned  to  Catforth, 
where  he  died  in  1 68 1 . 

^Dom  John  Richard  Isherwood  alias  Sherburne,  O.S.B.,  professed  at 
Lambspring  in  1685,  was  probably  a  son  of  the  above. 

*  John  Sherburne,  of  Bailey  Hall,  is  described  as  gentleman  in  the  16S0  roll. 
Sherburnes  of  Bailey  appear  annually  in  the  rolls  from  the  reign  of  Elizabeth. 
Richard  Sherburne,  of  Bailey  Hall,  engaged  in  the  rising  of  171 5,  and  made  his 
escape  after  the  battle  of  Preston,  but  was  outlawed  and  his  estate  forfeited.  He 
had  a  yoimger  brother,  John,  who  owned  Stydd  Lodge,  Dutton,  in  the  parish  of

Vavasour,  SJ.,  in  1700,  as  well  as  that  at  Stydd,  where  he  died  in  1740.  An 
ancient  triptych,  dated  1594,  which  formerly  hung  over  the  altar  at  Stydd 
Lodge,  was  removed  to  St  Michael's  House,  Broughton,  the  residence  of  the 
Rev.  Thomas  Smith,  who  died  in  1882,  and  of  his  brother,  the  Rev.  William 
Smith,  who  died  in  1892. 

1  Probably  Elizabeth,  dau.of  Robert  Sherburne,  of  little  Mitton  Hall,  by 
Katherine,  dau.  of  Richard  I.athom,  of  Parbold  Hall,  and  widow  of  John 
Shuttleworth,  younger  son  of  Richard  Shuttleworth,  of  Gawthorpe  Hall. 

2  Frances',  dau.  of  Christopher  Towneley,  of  Patrick  Prompton,  co.  York, 
younger  son  of  John  Towneley,  of  Towneley  Hall,  and  widow  of  Richard  Sher- 
burne, of  Little'Mitton  Hall,  who  died  in  1664.  Consequently  she  was  sister-in- 
law  to  the  preceding  Mrs  Shuttleworth.  The  Sherburnes,  of  Little  Mitton,  re- 
turned a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664.  Her  husband's  younger  brother, 
Francis  Sherburne,  was  a  recusant  of  Saleibury  in  1680.  He  had  three  uncles 
priests,  sons  of  Thomas  Sherburne,  of  Little  Mitton,  by  his  first  wife,  Margaret, 
dau.  of  Francis  Tnnstall,  of  Arncliff  Hall,  co.  York,  Dom  Thomas  James  Sher- 
burne alias  Tunstall,  O.S.B.,  who  died  in  1657,  Richard  Sherburne  alias  Tun- 
stall,  ordained  at  Douay  in  1622,  who  was  probably  priest  at  Ladyvvell,  Ferny- 
halgh,  where  many  of  his  books  are  still  in  the  library,  and  Matthew  Sherburne 
alias  Tunstall,  ordained  at  Douay  in  1622,  elected  archdeacon  of  the  chapter  in 
165S,  and  represented  Lancashire  and  Westmoreland  at  the  general  assembly 
in  1667,  The  grandfather  of  the  priests,  Robert  Sherburne,  second  son  of  Thomas 
Sherburne,  of  Stonyhurst,  obtained  the  manors  of  Little  Mitton  and  Catterall 
with  his  wife,  Dorothy,  one  of  the  daughters  and  coheiresses  of  Thomas 
Catterall.  Mr  Sherburne  was  reader  of  Gray's  Inn,  and  died  14  Eliz.,  1 571-2. 
His  widow  was  still  on  the  recusant  rolls  in  10  Jac.  I,  1612-3.  Immecliatcly 
after  the  death  of  Richard  Sherburne,  in  1664,  Little  Mitton  was  sold  to  Alex- 
ander Holt,  of  Grislehurst.  The  ancient  hall  is  one  of  the  most  interesting  in  the 
county.  Mass  was  said  here  during  the  time  of  the  Sherburnes. 

^The  Boltons,  of  Bolton  Hall,  Copthurst  Green,  in  Salesbury,  appear 
annually  in  the  rolls  from  the  earliest  period.  In  the  reign  of  Henry  VIII  thej'' 
owned  Loveley  Hall  in  Salesbury.  Adam  and  Thomas  Bolton  were  recusants  in 
1601,  and  Launcelot  Bolton,  of  Bolton  Hall,  till  his  death  in  1623.  In  1633  Adam 
Bolton  appears,  and  in  1654  he  bought  the  sequestrated  estates  of  Sir  John 
Talbot,  of  Salesbury  Hall.  George  Bolton,  named  in  the  text,  died  in  1679.  In 
1680  Margaret,  vife  of  Launcelot  Bolton,  gent.,  was  on  the  rolls,  and  they  had 
sons,  Launcelot,  died  1671,  Thomas,  died  1665,  and  Richard,  bom  1658. 
Launcelot  died  in  April,  1701.  In  17 17  Elizabeth  Bolton,  of  Eavesden,  co.  Lin- 
coln, widow,  registered  as  a  Catholic  non-juror  demesne  lands  in  Salesbury. 

*  She  was,  no  doubt,  one  of  the  Sherburnes,  of  Wolfhouse,in  Chipping,  an 
estate  obtained  about  1 5 1 3  by  Roger  Sherburne,  younger  son  of  Robert  Sher- 
burne, of  Stonyhurst,  with  his  wife,  Isabel,  dau.  and  heir  of  John  Knolles,  who 
had  inherited  it  from  the  de  Chepins.  Roger's  descendant  and  namesake  married

Wolfhouse  to  his  uncle,  John  Sherburne,  whose  son,  Robert,  married  Dorothy, 
dau.  of  Sir  Edward  Mansfield,  of  Buckinghamshire,  and  she  died  at  Marlow, 
in  that  county,  in  1685.  Robert  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664, 
when  he  had  a  son,  Edward,  and  two  daughters.  Soon  afterwards  Wolfhouse 
was  sold  to  the  Earl  of  Derby. 

1  Sailsbury  or  Salisbury  was  an  old  Chipping  family. 

*  This  ancient  family  derived  from  Sidgreaves,  in  Lea,  near  Preston,  where 
they  appear  in  the  thirteenth  century.  In  the  following  century  they  had 
acquired  lands  in  Goosnargh,  and  later  in  Chipping.  They  were  always  staunch 
to  the  faith,  and  appear  annually  in  the  recusant  rolls  from  1591.  Dom  John 
Bernard  Sidgreaves,  born  1 569,  son  of  Christopher,  of  Inglewhite,  in  Goosnargh, 
left  Caius  College,  Cambridge,  for  the  English  College  at  Rheims  in  1587,  and 
thence  went  to  that  at  Rome  in  1590,  finally  joining  the  Carthusians  in  Italy. 
His  "Vita,"  with  portrait,  was  published  at  Naples  in  167 1.  His  aunt,  Anne 

Sidgreaves,  married  Sir Fitzsimon,  of  Dublin  and  Manchester,  and  was 

mother  of  Father  Henry  Fitzsimon,  S.J.,  the  eminent  controversialist.  The 
family  continued  to  reside  at  Inglewhite  Lodge  till  the  death  of  James  Sid- 
greaves in  1853,  The  latter 's  brother  George,  of  Preston,  was  the  father  of  Sir 
Thomas  Sidgreaves,  sometime  Chief  Justice  of  the  Straits  Settlements,  who  died 
in  1889,  aged  sixty.  Another  brother,  Edward,  of  Grimsargh  House,  was  father 
of  Father  Edward  Sidgreaves,  S.J.  A  verj'-  faulty  pedigree  is  given  in  Fishwick's 
Hist,  of  Goosnargh. 

*  Anthony  Ajnrey  was  buried  16  June,  1681,  and  his  wife  Elizabeth  26  Nov., 
1680.

^She  was  buried  at  Chipping  4  April,  1678.  Her  husband  was  no  doubt  a 
member  of  the  ancient  Catholic  family  of  Skillicorne,  of  Frees  Hall,  in  Weeton, 
William  Skillicorne,  of  Frees  Hall,  who  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of 
1 567,  married  Jane,  dau.  of  Sir  Richard  Hoghton,  of  Hoghton  Tower,  and  had  five 
sons  and  three  daughters.  Upon  his  death,  in  1601,  he  was  succeeded  by  his  son 
Nicholas,  then  thirty-nine  years  of  age.  The  latter  married  Margaret,  dau.  of  Sir 
Thomas  Hesketh,  of  Rufford  Hall,  and  was  the  father  of  seven  sons.  Of  these, 
William,  the  eldest,  married  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Henry  Freston,  of  Preston,  and 
left  two  daughters  and  coheiresses,  the  Frees  estate  having  probably  been  sold 
before  his  death.  One  of  the  younger  sons,  Nicholas,  was  a  recusant  at  Osbalde- 
ston  1 620- 1 6  36,  and  possibly  the  father  of  the  Richard  mentioned  in  the  text. 
Fishwick,  Hist,  of  Kirkham,  traces  a  pedigree  of  eleven  generations,  showing 
alliances  with  the  best  families  in  the  county. 

2  The  various  Catholic  families  of  Parker  of  Bowland-cum-Leagram,  Chip- 
ping, and  other  places  in  this  locality,  are  far  too  numerous  to  distinguish. 
Juliana  was  buried  i  Feb.,  1680.  Her's  was  a  name  peculiar  to  several  Catholic 
families  in  this  district.  John  Parker,  of  Lickhurst,  whose  will  was  proved  in 
1670,  had  a  dau.  Juliana  by  his  wife  Alice,  dau.  of  Edmund  Threlfall,  of  The 
Ashes  in  Threlfall  Tything,  Goosnargh,  and  Juliana,  his  wife,  dau.  of  Cuthbert 
Hesketh,  of  White  Hill,  in  Goosnargh. 

3  Richard  Bleasdale,  of  Blackstick,  in  Chipping,  was  buried  2  Mch.,  1672, 
and  his  wife  Alice  28  Feb.,  167 t. 

*  In  the  registers  the  name  appears  as — Ayanson,  Ih'anson,  Hianson,  Han- 
son, and  other  variations,  under  Brierscliffe,  Barrowford,  and  Habergham 
Eaves.  Dom  Wm,  Alphonsus  Hanson  alias  Hesketh,  O.S.B,,  who  was  slain  in 
cold  blood  near  York  by  the  Cromwellians  in  1644,  was  a  native  of  Barrowford. 
He  figures  in  "De  Vaux,  A  Tale,"  by  D.  S.  L.,  in  the  Catholic  Miscellany,  Vol. IX. 
Dom  Maurus  Hanson,  O.S.B.,  who  died  in  1630,  was  of  the  same  family.  Henry 
Hanson,  son  of  Miles  Hanson,  of  Brierscliffe,  was  baptized  26  July,  1646.

*  Barnard  Towneley,  of  Hurstwood,  who  died  1686,  was  a  younger  son  of 
John  Towneley,  of  Hurstwood  Hall,  by  Eleanor,  dau.  of  Simon  Haydock,  of 
Hesandforth  Hall.  The  elder  brother,  John,  died  in  July,  1664,  and  his  son  and 
namesake  in  the  previous  May.  Hence  the  son's  widow,  Katherine,  dau.  of 
Geoffrey  Rushton,   of  Antley   Hall,   a  non-Catholic,  brought  up  her  young

children  Protestants.  The  son,  John,  died  in  1704,  when  the  estates  were 
divided  between  his  two  daughters  and  coheirs,  and  the  family  came  to  an  end 
in  the  male  line.  The  estate  was  subsequently  purchased  by  the  Towneleys  of 
Towncley.  The  family  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  and  another 
appears  in  Whitaker's  Hist,  of  Whalley.  Barnard  Towneley  was  still  on  the  rolls 
in  1684.  His  grandfather  and  namesake,  son  of  John,  third  son  of  Sir  Richard 
Towneley,  of  Towneley,  erected  Hurstwood  Hall. 

^  Rowley  Hall,  in  Worsthom,  a  fine  old  mansion,  was  erected  by  John 
Halsted  in  1593.  The  family  at  that  time  retained  the  faith,  one  of  his  sisters 
married  Simon  Haydock,  of  Hesandforth  Hall,  and  two  others  Hoghtons,  and  his 
eldest  son  a  Towneley,  of  Hurstwood.  The  latter  suffered  heavily  as  a  Royalist, 
and  about  this  time  ceased  to  be  recusant.  Thomas  Halsted,  named  in  the 
text,  does  not  appear  in  the  pedigree  in  Whitaker's  Hist,  of  Whalley. 

*  The  Birtwisles,  deriving  from  Birtwisle,  a  hamlet  in  the  adjoining  town- 
ship of  Hapton,  appear  to  have  acquired  the  manor  of  Huncote  through  mar- 
riage with  heiress  of  the  Huncotes.  They  returned  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations 
of  1567  and  1664.  In  1575  Oliver  Birtwisle,  second  son  of  Oliver  Birtwisle,  of 
Huncote  Hall,  stayed  some  time  at  Douay  College.  Another  member  of  the 
family,  John  Birtwisle,  was  admitted  into  St  Alban's  College  at  ValladoUd 
9  Nov.,  1594,  having  previously  been  at  the  English  College  at  Seville.  He  was 
ordained  priest,  and  on  i  Oct.,  1600,  left  the  college  for  the  mission.  He  died 
26  Feb.,  1620,  s.n.,  and  was  buried  at  Harkirke,  within  the  park  at  Little 
Crosby  Hall,  the  seat  of  the  Blundells.  Thomas  Birtwisle,  named  in  the  text, 
married  Margaret,  dau.  of  Thomas  Clayton,  of  Little  Harwood  Hall,  by 
Bridget,  dau.  of  Francis  Tunstall,  of  Aldcliffe  and  Lentworth  Halls.  He  was  still 
on  the  recusant  rolls  in  1682-4.  His  eldest  son,  John,  became  a  priest,  and  was 
serving  Broughton  Hall,  Yorks,  the  seat  of  the  Tempests,  in  1655.  In  ^679  he 
was  at  Huncote  Hall,  but  appears  to  have  been  chaplain  at  Croxteth  Hall,  the 
seat  of  Viscount  Molyneux,  where  he  died  26  Jan.,  1680,  aged  about  fifty-seven, 
and  was  buried  at  Harkirke.  Joseph  Birtwisle,  the  third  son,  James  the  second 
son  apparently  having  died,  seems  to  have  succeeded  to  the  estate,  and  according 
to  the  Visitation  of  1664  married  Anne  Rawson.  The  text  calls  his  wife  Margaret, 
but  possibly  she  was  a  second  wife,  as  the  Visitation  was  signed  by  his  father, 
who  would  hardly  make  a  mistake  in  the  Christian  name.  Joseph  Birtwisle  died 
at  Huncote  Hall  in  1687,  soon  after  which  date  the  estate  seems  to  have  passed 
from  the  family.  He  was  most  probably  the  father  of  Edward  Birtwisle,  who 
took  the  college  oath  at  Douay  in  168 1,  and  in  1694  was  professor  of  philosophy. 
In  1 7 16  John  Birtwisle  and  his  wife  were  residing  on  the  family  property  at 
Birtwisle  in  Hapton,  and  were  convicted  of  recusancy.  Richard  Birtwisle  alias 
Halliwell,  whose  mother  was  probably  a  daughter  of  William  Halliwell,  of 
Liverpool,  was  ordained  priest  at  Lisbon  in  1737,  and  died  at  Claughton  Hall, 
the  seat  of  the  Brockholes  family,  26  Jan.,  1742-3.  After  this  the  name  disap- 
pears from  Catholic  records.  Huncote  Hall  was  an  ancient  erection  of  many 
gables,  replete  with  a  fine  banqueting  hall,  a  chapel,  siibsequently  converted 
into  a  bedroom,  and  the  necessary  priest's  hiding-places.  The  estate  eventually 
v.-as  purchased  by  the  Towneleysof  Towneley. 

^William  Winckley,  of  Billington,  was  the  younger  son  of  Thomas 
Winckley,  of  the  same,  a  younger  brother  of  Roger  Winckley,  of  Winckley  Hall, 
in  Aighton.  His  elder  brother,  Capt.  Thomas  Winckley,  was  slain  at  Liverpool 
during  the  civil  war  in  the  royal  cause.  The  family  always  retained  the  faith. 
Their  mother  was  Rosamond,  dau.  of  Edward  Walmesley,  of  Banister  Hall,  in 
Walton-le-dale,  fourth  son  of  Thomas  Walmesley,  of  Showley  Hall,  and  upon  the

death  of  his  uncle,  Edward  Walmesley,  in  1673,  the  Banister  Hall  estate  passed 
to  William  Winckley,  who  went  to  reside  there.  He  married  Isabel,  dau.  of  Robert 
Elston,  or  Ethelston,  of  Higher  Brockholes  Hall.whose  ancestor  at  an  early  period 
had  acquired  that  estate  through  marriage  with  the  heiress  of  the  Brockholes 
family.  His  wife  was  buried  at  Walton  3  J  nly,  1688, and  he  himself  on  27  Dec. .  1703. 
They  had  four  sons  and  three  daughters — two  sons  of  the  name  of  Thomas,  who 
died  infants  in  1675  and,i677 ;  Edward,  doctor  of  physic,  who  succeeded  to  Banis- 
ter Hall ;  William,  born  1677,  who  was  ordained  priest  at  the  English  college  at 
Rome  in  1704,  and  served  the  chapel  at  Banister  Hall,  but  after  the  forfeiture  of 
the  estate  in  1716  removed  to  Gradell,  Barbies  Moor,  in  Ulnes  Walton,  the  seat 
of  his  brother-in-law,  Christopher  Gradell,  where  he  died  and  was  buried  ia 
1742;  Rosamond  died  in  1676;  Anne,  wife  of  Christopher  Gradell;  and  Dorothy, 
wife  of  Cuthbert  Clifton,  son  of  James  Chfton,  and  grandson  of  Thomas  Clifton, 
of  Westby  Hall.  Edward  Winckley,  the  eldest  son,  was  outlawed  for  his  part  in 
the  Jacobite  rising  of  171 5,  and  though  his  estate  was  forfeited  he  recovered 
possession,  and  eventually  sold  it  on  i  Feb.,  1738-9,  and  withdrew  to  Preston, 
where  he  died  in  Dec,  1742.  He  was  twice  married,  his  first  wife  Mary  was 
buried  at  Walton  7  Dec,  1709,  and  his  second  was  Winifred,  dau.  of  Thomas 
Tyldesley,  of  Myerscough  Lodge,  the  Jacobite  diarist.  His  three  sons  were — 
Thomas,  who  used  the  alias  of  Elston,  was  ordained  priest  at  Douay,  and  died 
chaplain  to  the  convent  at  Dunkirk,  9  Mch.,  1740,  aged  forty- two;  Edward, 
of  Preston,  who  w^as  buried  at  Walton  18  Mch.,  1749-50;  and  James,  who  was 
buried  at  Walton  i  Mch.,  1726-7.  Of  his  two  daughters,  Isabel  died  an  infant 
in  iv697,  and  Jane,  born  in  Dec,  1697,  went  to  the  Benedictine  convent  at 
Cambrai  for  a  short  time  in  1720.  The  family  thus  came  to  an  end.  Banister 
Hall,  formerly  the  seat  of  the  Banastres,  from  whom  the  Walmesle37S  inherited 
it,  was  a  very  ancient  erection,  and  mass  was  said  there  throughout  the  days  of 
persecution. 

^  The  Cravens,  of  Elkar  in  Billington  and  of  Craven  Fold  in  Dinklcy,  were 
relatives  of  the  Winckleys,  Richard  Craven  having  married  Anne,  second  dau. 
of  Edward  Walmesley,  of  Banister  Hall.  They  appear  annually  in  the  rolls 
from  the  time  of  Elizabeth,  and  they  were  also  non-jurors  in  1717. 

2  Robert  Chew,  of  Potterford,  in  Eilhngton,  died  in  1667,  andhis  widow  Ann 
in  1676.  Down  to  1684  the  family  appears  regularly  in  the  recusant  rolls,  but 
lost  its  faith  about  that  time.  It  is  now  represented  by  William  Lawrence  Chew, 
of  Hankelow  Court,  co.  Chester,  J. P.  and  D.L.  The  del'Cho  familj"  were  allied 
to  the  De  Bilyngtons.  lords  of  BiUington,  and  held  under  them  the  manor  of 
Cho.  In  the  thirteenth  centuiy  Hugh  del'Cho  married  Avicia,  dau.  of  Adam 
de  Bilyngton.

^Bradley  Hall  in  this  township  had  just  been  sold,  after  the  death  of  Hugh 
Bradley,  in  1665,  to  the  Earl  of  Derby.  The  family  returned  a  pedigree  at  the 
Visitation  of  the  county  in  1 567,  and  another  at  the  Visitation  of  Westmoreland 
in  161 5.  They  always  retained  the  faith,  as  did  the  several  collateral  branches 
in  a  more  humble  position  resident  in  the  township. 

*  Richard  Walmesley,  of  Showley  Hall,  in  this  township,  bom  in  1 598, 
returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1C64,  as  his  cousin,  Thomas  Walmesley, 
of  Dunkenhalgh,  son  of  Sir  Thomas  Walmesley,  the  eminent  judge,  had  done  in 
161 3.  He  married  Ellen,  dau.  of  William  Gerard,  of  Radbome,  and  had  six  sons 
and  two  daughters,  one  of  the  latter  being  the  Margaret  of  the  text,  who  died 
unmarried.  His  father  and  namesake  was  the  second  son  of  Thomas  Walmesley, 
of  Showley,  the  eldest  son,  the  judge,  settling  at  Dunkenhalgh,  and  this  elder 
branch  is  now  represented  by  the  Petres.  The  Showley  branch  was  continued 
by  Richard's  third  son,  Thomas,  bom  m  1623,  and  the  fourth  son,  John,  was  the 
ancestor  of  the  Walmesleys  of  Westwood  House,  lords  of  the  manor  of  Ince, 
which  estate  they  acquired  with  an  heiress  of  the  Gerards  of  Ince  Hall.  Of  the 
Westwood  branch  were  Bishop  Charles  Walmesley,  V.A — ^W.D.,  and  his 
brother  Dom  Richard  Peter  Walmesley,  O.S.B.,  grandsons  of  John,  and  several 
nuns.  Richard  Walmesley  was  still  on  the  recusant  roll  for  1679,  in  which  year 
his  will  was  proved.  Many  of  his  descendants  were  secular  priests,  Benedictines, 
and  nuns.  Through  a  southern  marriage  of  Richard's  great-grandson,  Thomas,

the  south,  and  almost  abandoned  Showley  Hall,  which  fell  into  deca5%  and  the 
bulk  of  it  v/as  demolished  shortly  before  its  sale  by  Thomas  George  Walmesley 
in  Feb.,  1870.  There  were  chapels  in  and  adjoining  the  venerable  mansion,  with 
several  hiding-places,  which  regularly  sheltered  priests  from  time  immemorial, 
indeed,  Bishop  Francis  Petre,  V.A — N.D.,  resided  here  many  years  till  his 
death  in  1775.  There  are  pedigrees  of  the  family  in  Foster's  Lancashire  Pedi- 
grees and  The  Visitations  of  Essex,  Harl.  Soc,  Vol.  XIV. 

1  From  a  remote  period  the  Waltons  resided  at  Little  Walton  Hall,  an 
ancient  structure,  with  central  porch  and  gabled  wings,  originally  erected  in  the 
post  and  pan  style,  but  much  altered  in  later  times,  the  present  gate-posts 
bearing  the  date  1675.  Thomas  Walton,  of  Little  Walton  Hall,  married  Priscilla, 
dau.  and  heir  of  John  Cottam,  of  Tarnacre  Hall  (who  returned  a  pedigree  at  the 
Visitation  of  161 3),  and  had  issue  William,  his  successor,  John,  and  James.  The 
third  son,  born  at  Walton  in  or  about  1609,  was  ordained  priest  at  the  English 
College  at  Rome  in  1633,  and  adopted  the  alias  of  Cottam.  He  died  on  the 
mission  in  Lancashire  in  Feb.,  1671.  William,  the  eldest  son,  married  Dorothy, 
dau.  of  Christopher  Anderton,  of  Howick  Hall,  who  survived  him  and  married 
secondly  Edward  Walmesley,  of  Banister  Hall.  His  daughter.  Sister  Anne 
Joachim  Walton,  was  professed  at  the  convent  of  the  Poor  Clares  at  Gravelines, 
in  1640,  and  died  in  1677,  aged  fifty-eight.  Upon  his  death,  Feb.  18,  1625-6, 
he  was  succeeded  by  his  son  Thomas,  born  in  1620,  whose  will  was  proved  in 
1673.  He  appears  under  Eccleston-juxta-Knowsley,  with  Mary  his  wife,  in  the 
text  for  March  23,  1667.  The  James  of  the  text  is  not  easy  to  identify;  the  name 
was  a  family  one,  but  there  is  no  reliable  pedigree.  Soon  after  this  the  heir, 
Thomas  Walton,  alienated  the  estate,  in  1 68  2 ,  and  took  up  his  residence  on  another 
estate  he  possessed  at  Winder  in  Cartmel,  and  his  will  was  proved  in  1683. 
In  Upper  Holker  in  that  parish  there  was  an  ancient  mansion  called  Walton 
Hall,  said  to  have  been  the  residence  of  William  de  Walton,  prior  of  Cartmel, 
possibly  of  the  same  family.  The  will  of  Elizabeth  Walton,  of  Canon  Winder, 
in  Cartmel,  was  proved  in  1691.  Thomas  Walton  alias  Westby  took  the  college 
oath  at  Douay  in  1700.  He  is  probably  the  priest  who  was  present  at  Bishop 
Williams'  confirmation  at  Hexham  in  1729.  Elizabeth  and  Isabel,  daughters  of 
Francis  Westby,  of  Myerscough  and  Mowbreck  Hall,  were  recusants  at  Holker 
in  1683-4,  and  it  is  possible  that  one  of  them  became  the  mother  of  the  priest. 
Thomas  Walton,  who  succeeded  his  father  and  namesake  to  the  Winder  estate, 
and  also  to  an  estate  in  Hambleton,  was  a  relative  of  Thomas  Tyldesley,  the 
Jacobite,  who  frequently  mentions  him  in  his  diary  in  1711-13.  He  married 
Anne,  dau.  of  George  Leyburne,  of  Nateby  Hall,  Lancashire,  and  of  Cunswick 
Hall  in  Westmoreland,  by  EHzabeth,  dau.  of  George  Preston,  of  Holker  Hall. 
Thomas  Walton  was  attainted  of  high  treason  after  the  rising  of  171 5,  and  his 
estates  were  confiscated.  Mrs  Walton's  brother,  John  Leyburne,  was  also  attainted 
in  1 7 16,  and  as  his  two  brothers,  George  and  Nicholas,  were  priests,  what  was 
saved  from  the  Leyburne  forfeiture,  including  Nateby  Hall,  was  inherited 
by  his  niece,  Elizabeth  Walton,  the  dau.  and  heiress  of  Thomas  Walton.  She 
married  first,  in  1745,  Thomas  Cholmeley,  of  Brandsby  Hall,  co.  York,  and 
secondly,  George  Anne,  of  Frickley  Hall,  co.  York,  by  whom  she  had  an  only 
daughter  and  heiress,  who  died  unmarried  and  left  the  Nateby  Hall  estate  to 
her  father,  whose  son  by  a  second  marriage,  Michael  Anne,  sold  Nateby  Hall  in

family.  Father  John  Walton  alias  Rigby,  who  died  in  1677,  aged  fifty-three,  a 
noted  controversialist;  Father  William,  who  died  in  1706,  aged  fifty-five;

who  died  at  Irnham,  in  1797,  aged  fifty-seven. 

^Mary  Cuerden's  will  was  proved  in  1677,  and  that  of  her  husband,  Mat- 
thew Cuerden,  of  Walton-le-Dale,  in  1666.  The  Cuerdens  of  Cuerden,  parish  of 
Leyland,  of  Walton-le-Dale  and  Clayton-le-Dale,  parish  of  Blackburn,  and  of 
Tarleton,  parish  of  Croston,  appear  in  the  recusant  rolls  from  their  commence- 
ment, 34  Eliz.  1 591-2.  Father  John  Cuerden,  Disc.  Carme.,  born  at  Tarleton 
in  1696,  was  son  of  William  Cuerden  and  his  wife  Jane  Rymer.  He  was  ordained 
priest  at  Lou  vain  in  17  20,  and  served  the  chaplaincies  at  Crosby  Hall,  Sef  ton  Hall 
and  Croxteth  Hall,  and  died  in  London  in  1761.  William  Cuerden,  of  Clayton- 
le-Dale,  chapman,  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717,  returned  estates  there,  in 
Cuerden,  and  in  Walton-le-Dale,  all  in  his  own  possession.  He  mentions  his  infant 
sons  Matthew  and  Thomas,  the  latter  of  whom,  bom  in  17 18,  became  a  Jesuit, 
served  Westby  Hall  for  many  years,  and  died  at  Scholes  Hall,  near  Prescot,  in 
1793.  Dr  Richard  Kuerden,  the  eminent  Lancashire  antiquary,  returned  a  very 
long  but  thin  pedigree  of  the  family  at  the  Visitation  of  1664.  Though  the 
Doctor  himself  was  a  Protestant,  the  family  alliances  down  to  the  time  of  his 
grandmother  were  Catholic. 

2  The  Sergeants,  of  whom  Abram  gives  some  account  in  his  Hist.  of^Blach- 
burn,  disappear  from  the  rolls  soon  after  this  date.  Leonard  Sergeant,  of 
Walton,  was  a  recusant  up  to  his  death  in  1640,  and  his  grand-daughter  Anne, 
dau.  of  his  late  son  and  heir  Thomas,  was  his  next  heir,  Leonard's  dau.  Kather- 
ine  was  the  wife  of  Richard  Sharrock,  of  Walton,  an  old  Catholic  family,  of 
whom  were  a  number  of  Benedictines,  one  being  Bishop  William  Gregory 
Sharrock,  V.A — ^W.D,,  who  died  in  1809. 

2  The  Woodcocks  of  Walton  were  a  branch  of  the  family  seated  at  Woodcock 
Hall  in  Cuerden,  and  always  retained  the  Faith.  The  above  John  died  in  1690. 
In  1663  he  purchased  the  Lemon  House  estate  in  Walton,  from  WilUam  Lemon, 
of  Preston,  where  the  family  resided  till  its  sale  by  a  descendant  and  namesake 
of  John  Woodcock  some  few  years  after  1733.  The  last  John  W^oodcock  was 
the  Catholic  non-juror  of  1717.  Abram  gives  a  pedigree  of  the  family  in  his 
Hist,  of  Blackburn. 

*  Richard  Duddell's  will  was  proved  in  1667,  and  that  of  James,  probably 
his  son,  in  1689.  They  were  both  coopers.  Richard  Duddell  married  Elizabeth, 
dau.  of  Richard  Chorley,  of  Walton,  by  Isabel,  dau.  of  William  Serjeant,  of 
Walton.  One  of  this  family.  Sister  Catherine  Cecilia  Joseph  Duddell,  was  pro- 
fessed a  Poor  Clare,  at  Gravelines  in  1744,  and  died  in  1783,  aged  fifty-six. 

^  The  Gregsons  of  Brindle,  Hoghton,  Walton-le-Dale,  and  Salmesbury,  were 
always  recusants,  and  in  17 17  were  Catholic  non-jurors.  A  number  of  them 
became  Benedictines.

iShe  was  buried  at  Ribchester,  Feb.  8,  1673.  Her  husband,  at  the  age  of 
sixty-two,  built  the  present  Buckley  Hall  in  1662,  and  his  will,  dated  June  20, 
1673,  was  proved  Jan.  14,  1674.  His  father,  Roger  Sherburne,  of  Buckley,  who 
died  Oct.  16,  1605,  was  the  son  and  heir  of  Richard  Sherburne,  of  Buckley  Hall, 
by  Isabel,  dau.  of  Thomas  Denman,  of  Ordsall,  co.  Notts,  which  Richard  was  a 
younger  son  of  Robert  Sherburne,  of  Wolfhouse.  Richard  Sherburne  left  no 
issue,  and  Buckley  Hall  passed  into  other  hands. 

2  The  Cottams  of  The  High  House  in  Dilworth  were  an  ancient  Catholic 
family.  There  is  a  genealogical  account  of  the  family  in  Smith's  Hist,  of  Rib- 
chester, but  it  is  very  unsatisfactory.  There  is  probably  some  confusion  in  the 
description  in  the  text.  Laurence  Cottam,  senior,  married  in  1627  Anne  Bume, 
of  Chipping,  and  Lawrence  Cottam,  junior,  married  in  1675  Mary  Fairclough. 
The  father  died  in  1682,  and  the  son  (who  was  a  non-juror  in  1717)  in  1733.  John 
Cottam,  son  of  Lawrence  junior,  married  in  171 7  Elizabeth  Cutler,  of  Chipping, 
and  left  the  High  House  for  the  neighbourhood  of  Preston  about  the  middle  of 
the  eighteenth  century.  There  was  another  branch  of  the  family  living  at  this 
time  at  Knowle  Green  in  Ribchester,  their  residence  being  variously  called 
Cottam  Hall.  Knoll  Hall,  and  Dilworth  Hall.

1  The  Hayhursts,  of  Hayhurst,  in  Dutton,  were  of  ancient  lineage.  Henry 
Hayhurst,of  Hayhurst,  in  1622  married  Anne,  dau.of  William  Browne.of  Aintree, 
and  relict  of  Richard  Towneley  of  Dutton  Hall,  whose  daughter  Susan  married 
Henry  Hayhurst,  junior.  The  Anne  of  the  text  was  probably  the  widow  of 
Henry  senior.  In  1717  Lawrence  Hayhurst,  of  Dutton,  was  a  CathoUc  non- 
juror. The  genealogical  account  of  the  family  in  Smith's  Hist,  of  Rihchester  is  very 
confused. 

*The  Sherburnes,  of  Little  Mitton  Hall,  were  descended  from  Robert, 
younger  son  of  Thomas  Sherburne,  of  Stonyhurst,  and  brother  to  Sir  Richard 
Sherburne,  reader  of  Gray's  Inn.  Robert  obtained  Little  Mitton  through  his 
wife  Dorothy,  dau.  and  coheiress  of  Thomas  Catterall,  of  Catterall  Hall  and 
Little  Mitton  Hall,  and  his  grandson  and  namesake  married  Katherine  (of  the 
text),  dau.  of  Richard  Lathom,  of  Parbold  Hall,  by  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Sir  Piers 
Legh,  of  Lyme  Hall,  co.  Chester,  and  had  four  sons  and  seven  daughters.  The 
eldest  son,  Thomas,  married,  first,  Jane,  dau.  of  Judge  Reeves,  of  Thwaites,  and 
secondly,  Katherine,  dau.  of  John  Jones,  and  relict  of  Edward  Jones,  of  Glu- 
mandy,  in  Clavaris  in  Yale,  co.  Denbigh,  the  junior  Katherine  named  in  the 
text,  who  was  living  in  1674.  As  Thomas  Sherburne  had  no  issue  by  either  wife, 
the  estate,  upon  his  death  in  1664,  passed  to  his  brother  Richard,  who  married 
Frances,  dau.  of  Christopher  Towneley,  of  Patrick  Brompton,  co.  York,  son 
of  John  Towneley,  of  Towneley  Hall.  He,  too,  died  s.p.  in  1665,  and  the  estate 
was  sold  to  Alexander  Holt.  The  other  two  sons  seem  to  have  died  young,  and 
the  family  became  extinct.  The  Sherburnes  appear  regularly  in  the  recusant 
rolls.  At  one  time,  5  Car.  I,  1629-30,  Robert,  the  husband  of  the  elder  Katherine 
was  living  at  Catterall  Hall.  He  died  in  1657,  as  did  his  younger  brother  Dom 
Thomas  James  Sherburne  alias  Tunstall,  O.S.B.  Two  other  brothers  were 
secular  priests,  Richard  and  Matthew,  both  ordained  at  Douay  in  1622  under 
the  alias  of  Tunstall.  The  latter  was  alive  in  1667.  Their  mother  was  Margaret, 
dau.  of  Francis  Tunstall,  of  AldclifE  Hall,  their  father  Thomas  Sherburne's 
first  wife. 

3  Christopher  Harries,  of  Torrisholme,  in  the  parish  of  Lancaster,  married 
Margery,  dau.  and  heir  of  Robert  Swindlehurst,  of  Fairoak  House,  in  Bolland 
or  Bowland),  co.  York,  and  thus  obtained  that  estate.  Harries  was  a  Royalist,

and  took  an  active  part  during  the  civil  wars.  His  son  Charles  Harries,  of  Fair- 
oak,  married  Oct.  i,  1683,  Bridget,  dau.  of  Thomas  Brockholes,  of  Claughton 
Hall,  and  left  two  daughters  and  coheiresses,  Dorothy,  wife  of  John  Parkinson, 
of  Sykes  House,  and  Mary,  wife  of  Henry  Whittingham,  of  Whittingham  Hall. 
Mr  Parkinson  died  in  1725,  leaving  an  only  dau.  and  heir,  Elizabeth,  married 
in  1746  to  Robert  Parker,  of  Hareden  in  Bolland.  Mrs  Whittingham  was  married 
in  1705,  and  died  May  8,  174.1,  having  been  the  mother  of  eleven  children,  two 
of  whom,  Bridget  and  Mary,  respectively  became  the  wives  of  George  Silvertop, 
of  Minsteracres,  co.  Durham,  and  his  brother  Joseph  Silvertop,  whose  descend- 
ant, the  present  inheritor  of  Minsteracres,  now  represents  the  Harries  and 
Whittingham  families.  Both  Christopher  and  his  son  Charles  Harries  were  on 
the  recusant  roll  for  1 680-1.  Evidence  was  given  during  the  Jacobite  trials  at 
Manchester  in  1694,  that  Charles  Harries  had  been  seen  in  company  with  other 
gentlemen  at  Dunkenhalgh,  the  seat  of  Mr  Walmesley,  at  a  secret  meeting  held 
there  in  King  James  II's  interest.  He  died  in  17 19.  His  son-in-law,  John  Parkin- 
son, of  Myerscough,  in  17 16  was  attainted  and  convicted  of  high  treason  for 
being  out  with  the  Chevalier  de  St  George  in  1715,  and  though  he  was  never 
apprehended  his  estate  was  forfeited. 

1  The  Southworths  were  one  of  the  finest  Catholic  families  in  the  county,  at 
this  time  almost  exhausted  by  fine  and  persecution,  including  long  years  of  im- 
prisonment and  martyrdom  at  Tyburn.  Originally  of  Southworth  and  Croft,  in 
the  parish  of  Winwick,  they  obtained  the  Manor  of  Samlesbury  in  the  four- 
teenth century  with  the  heiress  of  the  D'Evyas  family,  which  in  like  manner 
had  acquired  it  through  the  marriage  in  the  thirteenth  century  of  Cicely  de 
Samlesbury  with  Sir  John  D'Evyas.  The  Elizabeth  Southworth  named  in  the 
text  was  the  daughter  of  Philip  Langton,  of  Lowe  Hall.  Her  husband  returned 
a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  at  which  date  he  was  aged  57,  and  had  six 
sons  and  eight  daughters,  the  eldest  son,  John,  being  then  twenty-three  years  of 
age.  The  father  died  in  1675,  leaving  the  estate  heavily  encumbered,  and  he 
was  succeeded  by  his  son  Edward,  who  was  compelled  to  finally  part  with  his 
estate  and  the  grand  and  picturesque  old  mansion  of  Samlesbury  by  indenture 
dated  March  10,  1679.  His  name,  however,  continued  to  appear  on  the  recusant 
rolls  for  some  little  time  longer,  till  finally  he  withdrew  to  Balderstone,  where  he 
died  in  1694.  Croston,  in  his  Hist,  of  Samlesbury  Hall,  says  that  he  had  two  sons, 
John  and  Thomas,  born  in  1678  and  1690,  and  from  the  latter  presumes  that  a 
family  of  the  same  name  in  London  derived.  This,  however,  is  most  improbable ; 
the  dates  are  hardly  reconcilable,  and  the  London  family,  a  by  no  means 
uncommon  name  there,  had  no  Catholic  associations.  There  was  a  John 
Southworth  of  Highfield,  esquire,  in  the  Parish  of  Lancaster,  in  the  same 
recusant  roll  with  Edward,  of  Samlesbury,  in  1680.  [He  or  a  namesake,  of  the 
same  place,  died  in  1727,  and  is  described  in  the  Autobiography  of  William 
Stout,  p.  114,  as  the  last  of  an  ancient  and  wealthy  family,  but  reduced  to  a 
small  estate.  He  left  a  widow,  but  no  child.  He  was  a  man  of  weak  capacity,  and 
made  no  will.  He  had  an  uncle  Robert  Southworth,  settled  in  London,  then 
deceased,  and  another  uncle  Francis  Southworth,  of  London,  also  deceased  in

1728,  but  the  latter  had  left  a  son  and  namesake,  Francis  Southworth,  who 
claimed  the  Highfield  estate,  and  sold  it  to  Robert  Gibson,  Esq.  This  was  a 
younger  branch,  however,  and  was  settled  at  Highfield  in  1622,  when  George 
Southworth  and  Mary  his  wife  were  on  the  rolls.  Another  branch  of  the 
family  settled  in  the  neighbourhood  of  Preston,  and  of  this  Ralph  South- 
worth.by  his  wife,  Catherine  Kay,  sister  of  the  Rev.  Henry  Kay,  and  grand-dau.  of 
John  Kendall,  of  Fulwood,  was  the  father  of  five  sons — (i)  Richard  Southworth 
alias  Kendall,  who  arrived  at  Douay  College  Sept.  28,  1756,  was  ordained 
priest  in  1769,  became  professor  of  philosophy,  and  vice-president  and  pro- 
fessor of  divinity  in  1773  till  he  left  for  the  mission  at  Brockhampton,  Hants, 
Aug.  25,  1786,  where  he  died  Nov.  19,  1817;  (2)  Henry,  arrived  at  Douay 
Nov.  8,  1762,  and  died  there  Feb.  5,  1765;  (3)  Ralph,  arrived  at  Douay  with 
Henry,  was  ordained  priest  in  1774,  was  retained  in  the  college  as  a  professor 
till  1782,  when  he  became  chaplain  to  the  Augustinian  nuns  at  Louvain, 
accompanied  them  at  the  Revolution  to  Spettisbury,  where  he  died  July  13, 
1 8 10,  aged  62,',  (4)  Thomas,  born  in  1749,  who  went  from  Sedgley  Park 
School  to  Douay  in  May,  1766,  and  after  ordination  was  sent  to  assist 
his  relative,  the  Rev.  Hugh  Kendall,  president  of  Sedgley  Park,  whom  he 
succeeded  as  second  president  in  1781,  and  so  continued  with  an  interruption 
between  April,  1793,  and  Nov.  1797,  till  his  death  June  11,  1816;  and  (5)  Wil- 
liam, who  accompanied  Thomas  from  Sedgley,  where  they  had  both  been  from 
Dec,  1765,  to  Douay,  was  ordained  priest,  and  came  to  the  mission  at  Hather- 
sage,  CO.  Derby,  in  1780,  subsequently  served  other  missions,  and  died  April  28, 
18 14.  In  early  times  there  were  several  priests  of  the  family,  of  whom  was  John, 
son  of  Sir  John,  of  Samlesbury  Hall,  who  was  ordained  at  Rheims,  and  about 
1585  was  reported  as  resident  at  Samlesbury  Hall  or  in  the  Fylde.  His  brother 
Christopher  went  in  1580  from  Rheims  to  Rome,  where  he  was  ordained  priest 
in  1583,  and  came  to  England  in  1586,  was  arrested  in  1587,  and  committed  to 
the  Counter  Prison,  thence  to  Wisbeach  Castle,  in  1595  he  was  at  Denbigh 
Castle,  and  finally,  about  1 598-9,  he  was  removed  to  the  Gatehouse,  Westminster. 
Subsequently  he  was  released,  and  in  161 2  he  was  at  Samlesbury  Hall.  He  used 
the  alias  of  Thompson.  Another  John  Southworth,  born  in  1592,  was  con- 
demned to  death  at  Lancaster,  on  account  of  his  sacred  calling,  and  reprieved, 
but  was  again  apprehended  in  later  years,  and  martyred  at  Tyburn  in  1654. 
There  was  always  a  chapel  regularly  served  in  Samlesbury  Hall  down  to  this 
period,  and  another  in  the  Lower  Hall,  Samlesbury,  which  estate  was  sold  by 
Thomas  Southworth  in  the  first  quarter  of  the  seventeenth  century  to  Sir 
Thomas  Walmesley,  of  Dunkenhalgh.  In  1690,  and  probably  earlier,  it  was 
served  by  the  Franciscans,  who  continued  to  do  so  till  1 8 1 6.  An  independent  chapel 
was  erected  in  18 17,  since  which  it  has  been  served  by  the  secular  clergy. 

^  John  Shorrocke,  of  Samlesbury,  yeoman,  was  a  recusant  in  1635,  and  the 
will  of  one  of  the  same  name  and  place  was  proved  in  1679.  A  branch  of  the 
family  settled  at  Walton-le-Dale,  and  from  it  came  several  Benedictines, 
including  a  bishop.  Robert  Sharrock,  yeo.,  and  his  wife,  Richard  Sharrock  and 
and  his  wife,  James  and  Christopher,  and  John  Sharrock  and  his  wife,  all  of 
Samlesbury,  were  convicted  of  recusancy  at  the  Lancaster  Sessions  on 
Jan.  15,  1716.

^The  Talbots  of  Salisbury  and  Dinkley  halls  were  descended  from  the 
Talbots  of  Bashall  Hall,  and  returned  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of  1533,  1567, 
161 3,  and  1664.  They  were  always  staunch  recusants,  and  in  consequence 
suffered  much  in  fine  and  imprisonment.  John,  born  in  1608,  and  George,  born 
in  161 2,  both  named  in  the  text,  were  sons  of  Sir  John  Talbot,  of  Salisbury 
Hall,  who  was  knighted  by  James  I,  at  Lathom  House,  in  1617,  and  died  in  1659. 
Their  mother  was  Mary,  dau.  of  Sir  Alexander  Barlow,  of  Barlow  Hall.  George 
fought  on  the  Royalist  side  at  the  storming  of  Preston  in  1642,  and  was  taken 
prisoner.  He  married  Anne,  daughter  of  Robert  Parkinson,  of  Fairsnape  Hall, 
but  the  pedigrees  are  silent  as  to  there  being  any  issue.  John,  the  eldest  son  of  Sir 
John,  married,  first,  Margaret,  dau.  of  Thomas  Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall,  and 
she  dying  in  1634,  secondly,  Dorothy,  dau.  of  James  Wilford,  of  Cranbrooke, 
CO.  Kent,  and  Quendon  Hall,  co.  Essex,  by  Anne,  daughter  and  heir  of  Thomas 
Newman,  of  Quendon  Hall.  John  Talbot  died  in  Oct.,  1677,  and  his  widow  in 
Sept.,  1684.  Their  only  surviving  child  Dorothy  married,  about  1678,  Edward 
Warren,  of  Poynton  Hall,  co.  Chester,  and  carried  the  Talbot  estates  into  that 
family.  Mrs  Warren  and  her  mother  appear  in  the  recusant  rolls  down  to  1684, 
and  then  resided  at  Dinkley  Hall.  The  Warrens,  who  were  not  Catholics,  con- 
tinued to  reside  chiefly  at  Dinkley,  and  the  extensive  Talbot  estates  ultimately 
descended  to  the  second  Lord  De  Tabley,  who  sold  them  in  1866  to  Henry  Ward, 
of  Blackburn.  There  were  chapels  in  both  of  the  halls  at  Salisbury  and  Dinkley, 
where  Mass  was  said  during  the  early  part  of  Elizabeth's  reign  and  later.  Fr 
WiUiam  Talbot,  S.J.,  who  died  in  1660,  aged  64,  and  Fr.  John  Talbot,  O.S.F., 
who  died  in  1668,  were  of  this  family.  The  pedigree  in  Abram's  Blackburn  is  the 
best. 

2  Two  of  this  family  became  Benedictines,  Dom  Robert  Austin  Turner,  born 
1 72 1,  died  1757,  and  Dom  John  Thomas  Turner,  born  at  Walton,  1743,  died 
1802.  Sister  Grace  Winefred  Francis  Turner  was  [professed  a  Poor  Clare  at 
Gravelincs  in  1 704,  and  died  there  at  the  age  of  thirty-eight.

^The  Cornowes  of  Cornowe,  or  Cornorowe,  in  Greenhalgh-cum-Thistleton, 
were  of  ancient  descent,  Lawrence,  Rowland  and  Henry  being  their  favourite 
names.  Laurence  Cornoe  died  in  1668,  and  his  son  and  namesake  was  a  recusant 
in  1 67 1.  The  will  of  the  son's  wife  Ellen  was  dated  March  25,  1681,  and  was 
proved  in  that  year  by  her  son  John.  Henry  Cornoe,  or  Corney  as  the  name 
began  to  be  spelt,  married  Jane,  daughter  of  Robert  Worswick,  of  Todderstaffe 
Hall,  her  brother,  Thomas  Worswick,  being  the  founder  of  Worswick's  Bank  in 
Lancaster,  now  represented  by  the  Lancaster  Banking  Co.  His  wife  was  Ahce, 
daughter  of  Robert  Gillow,  of  Lancaster.  One  of  Henry  Corney's  younger  sons, 
Thomas,  married  Dorothy,  daughter  of  William  Mawhood,  of  London.  Another 
of  his  sons,  James,  of  Lancaster,  whose  wife,  Anne  Fell,  was  a  cousin  of  the 
Rev.  John  Gillow,  D.D.,  president  of  Ushaw  College,  was  the  grandfather  of 
the  late  Charles  Frederick  Corney,  of  London,  father  of  Dom  Charles  Wilfrid 
Corney,  O.S.B.,  and  Dom  Vincent  Corney,  O.S.B.  The  pedigree  of  the  family  is 
fairly  accurate  from  the  reign  of  Elizabeth. 

2  Richard  Blackburne  was  son  of  Robert  Blackburne,  of  Thistleton,  by 
Elizabeth,  daughter  of  Ralph  Longworth,  of  Tarnacre  Hall,  or  St  Michael's 
Hall,  in  Up  Rawcliffe,  and  grandson  of  Richard  Blackburne,  of  Scorton  Hall, 
Thistleton,  and  Newton.  His  uncle,  Thomas  Blackburne,  was  ancestor  of  the 
Blackburnes  of  Orford  Hall,  andTheHutt  in  Hale,  the  Protestant  branch  of  the 
family.  Richard  Blackburne  married  Perpetua,  dau.  of  Francis  Westby,  of 
Myerscough  Hall,  son  of  John  Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall,  co.  Lancaster,  and 
Westby,  co.  York,  by  his  first  wife,  Perpetua,  dau.  of  Sir  Edward  Norreys, 
of  Speke  Hall.  He  died  in  1679,  leaving  several  children,  of  whom  were  Robert, 
John,  and  Francis.  Thomas  succeeded  to  the  Thistleton  and  Newton-cum- 
Scales  property,  of  which  he  made  a  settlement  in  1686.  In  the  spring  of  1695 
he  went  up  to  St  James's,  and  in  April,  1696,  he  was  falsely  charged  with  conspir- 
ing to  assassinate  King  William,  and  committed  to  Newgate.  His  case  is  almost 
without  parallel  for  its  hardship  and  injustice.  Though  there  was  no  evidence 
against  him,  and  he  was  never  brought  to  trial,  he  was  immured  in  Newgate 
for  over  fifty-three  years,  till  death  released  him  from  his  sufferings.  Francis, 
the  third  son»  living  in  1704,  was  the  father  of  Gregory  Blackburne  and  several 
other  children.

^  She  was  the  widow  of  William  Sanderson,  of  Alston,  whose  will  was  proved 
in  1665.  Her  son  Nicholas  Sanderson,  born  about  Easter,  1648,  after  studying 
at  St  Omer's  College,  was  sent  to  that  at  Rome,  where  he  was  admitted 
Nov.  14,  1666,  and  assumed  the  alias  of  Singleton,  probably  his  mother's  maiden 
name.  He  was  ordained  priest  Aug.  3,  1670.  Several  members  of  the  same 
family  entered  the  Society. 

2  William  Hothersall  was  a  younger  son  of  Thomas  Hothersall,  of  Hother- 
sall  Hall,  by  Bridget,  dau.  of  William  Haydock,  of  Cottam  Hall,  and  his  wife 
Bridget,  daughter  of  Sir  Richard  Hoghton,  of  Hoghton  Tower.  His  sister  Eliza- 
beth married  Cuthbert  Haydock,  of  Cottam  Hall.  Thomas  Hothersall  returned  a 
pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  being  then  about  80  years  of  age.  His  eldest 
son,  Capt.  John  Hothersall  was  slain  at  the  siege  of  Greenhalgh  Castle  in  1645, 
defending  it  in  the  Royal  Cause.  By  Margery,  his  wife,  dau.  of  James  Wall,  of 
Moorside,  Preston,  by  Isabel,  dau.  of  William  Travers,  of  Nateby  Hall,  the  captain 
left  a  son  Thomas,  named  later  in  the  text,  who  was  aged  twenty-one  on  May  10, 
1665.  He  succeeded  to  Hothersall  Hall,  and  made  his  will  Jan.  2,  1719,  and  was 
buried  at  Ribchester  on  the  i8th  of  the  same  month.  His  mother  Margery, 
married,  secondly,  Robert  Haydock,  of  Cottam  Hall,  Feb.  13,  i647.Thomas's  son 
John  joined  the  Chevalier  de  St  George  in  171 5,  and  was  taken  prisoner  at 
Preston,  was  attainted  and  convicted  of  high  treason,  and  outlawed,  but 
managed  to  escape,  and  lived  quietly  with  his  sister  and  coheir  Anne,  wife  of 
William  Leckonby,  of  Leckonby  House,  Great  Eccleston,  till  his  death,  un- 
married, some  time  before  1750.  Hothersall  Hall  and  manor  then  passed  to  the 
Leckonbys,  the  other  surviving  sister,  Margery,  wife  of  Edward  Winstanley,  of 
Pemberton,  having  other  property  for  her  share.  The  Hothersall  pedigree  can  be 
traced  from  the  twelfth  century.  The  family  suffered  much  for  its  faith,  and 
Mass  was  said  in  the  hall.  George  Hothersall,  who  went  to  Douay  in  1585,  and 
thence  to  Valladolid  in  1590,  where  he  was  ordained  priest,  returned  to  England 
in  1593,  and  served  the  mission  at  or  about  Hothersall.  He  was  imprisoned  and 
exiled,  after  which  he  joined  the  Benedictines  in  161 5,  returned  to  England,  and 
probably  died  at  Hothersall  Hall  in  1633.  He  was  a  younger  son  of  John  Hother- 
sall and  his  wife  Anne,  dau.  of  John  Talbot  of  Salisbury  Hall,  by  Anne,  dau.  of 
Hugh  Sherburne,  of  Stonyhurst.  William  Hothersall,  named  in  the  text,  died  in 
1679,  leaving  several  sons,  of  whom  Thomas,  the  eldest,  died  in  1684,  leaving 
sons,  William  and  John.  On  Jan.  15,  1716,  Fr  Walter  Vavasour,  S.J.,  who 
resided  in  Alston,  and  used  to  say  Mass  at  Hothersall  Hall,  was  convicted  at 
Lancaster  as  "Sir  Walter  Vavasor,  a  reputed  Preist."  Rather  defective  pedi- 
grees appear  in  Smith's  Ribchester  and  Longridge.  A  junior  branch  of  the 
Hothersalls  lived  at  Alston,  of  whom  was  Sister  Margaret  Mary  Austin  Hother- 
sall, who  was  professed  a  Poor  Clare  at  Gravelines  in  1741,  and  died  in  1765, 
aged  fifty-three.

1  Richard  Bilsborrow,  of  the  family  of  the  Bilsborrows  of  Cottam,  died  in 
1676.  His  wife  was  Margaret  Albine  of  Alston,  and  they  were  married  at  Rib- 
chester,  July  16,  1628.  Their  grandson,  Richard  Bilsborrow,  of  Alston,  joined 
the  Chevalier  de  St  George  in  1715,  and  was  attainted  July  24,  1716,  and  the 
stock  and  effects  on  his  farm  were  sold.  The  family  was  always  recusant.  The 
Bilsborrows  had  held  leaseholds  under  the  Haydocks  of  Cottam  Hall  from  an 
early  period.  The  will  of  Henry  Bilsborrow  was  proved  in  1593,  and  those  of 
John,  in  1618,  Henry,  in  1664,  WilHam,  in  1669,  and  John,  in  1688,  all  of 
Cottam.  The  last,  on  March  4,  1685,  leased  a  farm  under  William  Haydock,  of 
Cottam  Hall,  for  three  lives.  He  married,  probably  as  a  second  wife,  Mary 
Higginson,  widow,  whose  son  Roger  Higginson,  of  Barton,  went  to  London 
after  the  Rising  of  171 5,  and  was  a  Catholic  non- juror  of  St  Giles  in  the  Fields, 
CO.  Middlesex,  gent.,  in  171 7.  Mrs  Bilsborrow  died  in  1704,  and  her  husband's 
will  was  proved  in  1 7 1 1 .  His  son  William  Bilsborrow,  of  Bartle  Quarter  in  Wood- 
plumpton,  was  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  171 7,  It  was  he  who  let  the  barn  in 
Bartle  to  the  priest  at  Cottam  Hall,  about  1703,  to  establish  an  independent 
mission.  His  will  was  proved  in  1725,  and  that  of  John  Bilsborrow,  of  the  same 
address,  in  1728.  From  one  of  these  was  descended  Richard  Bilsborrow,  of 
Bradkirk  Hall,  who  died  July  24,  1869,  aged  seventy-six,  having  issue,  amongst 
others,  by  his  wife  Elizabeth,  who  died  Feb.  15,  i860,  aged  fifty-nine — the 
Rt  Rev.  John  Bilsborrow,  Bishop  of  Salford,  born  March  30,  1836,  died 
March  5,  1903;  Henry,  of  Pendleton,  who  married,  first,  Eliza  Anastasia,  dau. 
of  James  Leeming,  of  Seedley  in  Pendleton,  J. P.,  and,  secondly,  his  deceased 
wife's  sister,  Mary  Leeming,  who  survived  her  husband,  and  died  at  Salford, 
Nov.  8,  1882;  Cecily,  died  Jan.  2,  1859,  aged  twenty-four;  and  Barbara,  wife  of 
Thomas  Edsforth,  of  Bradkirk  Hall.  Henry  Bilsborrow  died  at  Pendleton, 
Feb.  25,  1876.  The  Rew.  Richard  O.  Bilsborrow,  of  Hornby,  Henry  L.  Bils- 
borrow, of  Bristol,  and  James  Romanus  Bilsborrow,  V.G.  of  Port  Louis,  in  the 
Mauritius,  are  nephews  of  the  late  bishop. 

*  This  name  was  originally  Duckworth,  but  eventually  became  spelt,  as  it 
was  locally  pronounced,  Duckett.  George  Duckworth,  or  Ducketh,  was  the 
father  of  John  Duckworth  alias  Ducket,  of  Alston,  yeoman,  who  married  Anne 
Dewhurst,  of  Alston,  and  was  a  CathoUc  non-juror  in  1717.  The  will  of  Thomas 
Ducket,  of  Alston,  was  proved  in  1734.  Bartholomew  Duckworth  alias  Ducket, 
of  Alston,  married  Anne,  dau.  of  Henry  Comaleach,  of  Elston,  tanner,  by 
Elizabeth,  daughter  of  John  Walmesley,  of  Elston,  tanner,  and  was  the  father  of 
the  Rev.  Henry  Duckett,  bom  July  15,  1729,  ordained  priest  at  the  English 
College  at  Rome,  March  9,  1754,  and  leaving  Rome  for  the  mission,  April  27 
following,  died  in  Lancashire,  Oct.  17,  1755.  His  mother  was  the  nurse  appear- 
ing in  the  family  group  entitled  "The  heiress  of  Hothersall  Hall,"  reproduced 
from  the  original  painting  and  published  in  Smith's  Hist,  of  Ribchester.  About 
this  time  some  of  the  family  removed  to  Claughton,  in  the  parish  of  Garstang, 
where  Richard  Duckett  died,  and  his  will  was  administered  to  in  1729.  He  was 
probably  the  father  of  Dom  George  Edmund  Duckett,  O.S.B.,  bom  at  Claugh- 
ton, professed  at  Paris  in  1760,  and  died  in  1792.  James  Duckett  removed  from

Claughton  to  Preston,  where  he  died  May  15,  1825,  aged  79,  leaving  sons: 
Richard,  an  auctioneer  in  Preston,  died  May  i,  1861 ;  James,  born  at  Claughton, 
Oct.  26,  1 79 1,  educated  at  Sedgley  Park  and  Oscott,  ordained  priest  in  1820,  and 
died  at  Wolverhampton,  May  30,  1864;  and  Thomas,  of  Preston,  whose  son 
James,  corn  merchant,  of  Preston,  was  the  father  of  the  Rev.  Canon  Thomas 
Duckett,  educated  at  Sedgley  and  Oscott,  ordained  priest  in  1855,  and  died  at 
Rugeley,  March  5,  1906.  Richard,  the  eldest  son,  had  sons,  Richard,  auctioneer 
of  Preston,  who  died  April  20,  1886;  Rev.  Canon  George  Duckett,  educated 
at  Sedgley  and  Oscott,  ordained  185 1,  and  spent  the  whole  of  his  missionary 
career  at  Wolverhampton  till  his  death,  May  5,  1898,  aged  75 ;  and  Thomas,  of 
Preston,  sculptor,  father  of  the  Rev.  Canon  Richard  Duckett,  D.D.,  now  of 
Norwich,  who  went  to  Lisbon  in  1847,  and  was  there  ordained. 

1  The  Bartons,  manorial  lords  of  Barton,  were  at  this  period  represented  by 
Richard  Shuttleworth,  of  Gawthorp  Hall,  a  Protestant,  who  died  in  June,  1669, 
aged  82.  His  wife  was  Fleetwood,  dau.  and  heiress  of  Richard  Barton,  of  Barton 
Hall,  by  Mary,  dau.  of  Robert  Hesketh,  of  Rufford  Hall.  Mrs  Shuttleworth, 
whose  ancestors  were  all  recusants,  died  in  1664.  The  Bartons  named  in  the 
text,  farmers  on  the  estate,  appear  for  generations  on  the  rolls,  and  may  have 
derived  from  a  younger  son  of  a  remote  lord  of  the  manor. 

2  She  was  probably  a  native  of  this  locality,  and  widow  of  one  of  the  Arrow- 
smiths  of  the  Haydock  district,  as  the  name  is  not  met  with  at  an  earlier  date 
in  this  part.  She  died  in  1681,  and  her  son  Richard  was  a  Catholic  non- juror  in 
1717,  and  his  will  was  proved  in  1728.  He  was  the  ancestor  of  Richard  Arrow- 
smith,  banker,  of  Preston. 

3  Thomas  Baldwin,  a  Lancashire  man,  took  the  oath  at  Douay  College  in 
1 67 1,  was  ordained,  and  died  a  professor  there  in  1684. 

*  The  Beesleys  at  this  time  had  but  recently  parted  with  their  ancient 
estates  of  The  Hill,  in  Beesley  Tythe  in  Goosnargh,  and  The  Brooks,  in  Bleasdale. 
They  were  always  staunch  to  the  faith,  and  suffered  heavily  in  fine,  imprison- 
ment, and  even  martyrdom.  William  de  Beselegh,  son  of  John,  was  living  in  the 
fourteenth  century.  His  descendant  John  Beesley,  of  The  Hill  in  Beesley,  had  a 
younger  son,  Christopher,  who  settled  in  York,  and  was  succeeded  by  his  son 
Edward,  who,  by  his  second  wife  Bridget,  dau.  and  heiress  of  William  Nelson, 
of  Skelton,  N.R.  of  York,  had  two  sons — Willianl ;  and  John,  who  matriculated  at 
Douay  in  1599,  and  probably  became  a  priest;  and  three  daughters,  of  whom 
Marie  became  the  wife  of  Christopher  Scrope,  of  Spenithorn,  whose  son  Henry, 
born  in  1605,  succeeded  to  Danby.  Edward,  who  suffered  much  for  his  recusancy 
and  that  of  his  family,  and  was  still  on  the  rolls  in  1604,  returned  a  pedigree  at 
the  Visitation  of  Yorks  in  1584.  His  son  William  was  the  father  of  Father  John 
Beesley  alias  Nelson,  S.J.,  who  went  to  the  College  at  Valladolid  in  Dec,  161 3, 
thence  to  that  at  Seville,  where  he  was  ordained  priest,  and  joined  the  Society

The  Hill,  had  two  sons,  George,  his  successor,  and  John,  who  was  a  priest,  and 
in  1585  was  reported  to  be  hving  at  Leighton  Hall,  with  the  widow  of  George 
Middleton,  Margaret,  dau.  of  Sir  Christopher  Metcalfe,  of  Nappa,  whose  wife 
was  a  dau.  of  Henry  Clifford,  Earl  of  Cumberland.  The  eldest  son,  George 
Beesley,  had  five  sons  (i)  J^rancis,  of  The  Hill,  who  died  Feb.  23,  1608-9; 
(2)  George,  ordained  priest  at  Rheims  in  1587,  and  martyred  at  Tyburn,  July  2, 
1 591 ;  (3)  Richard,  born  1570,  ordained  priest  at  Douay  in  1595,  having  studied 
also  in  Spain  and  at  Rome,  suffered  imprisonment  and  was  exiled  more  than 
once,  and  was  still  serving  the  mission  in  Lancashire  in  1632 ;  (4)  William,  of  The 
Brooks,  in  Bleasdale,  recusant  in  1607-8,  who  by  his  wife  Margaret,  dau.  and 
coheir  of  John  Parker  of  Aighton,  had  a  son,  John,  born  Feb.  2,  1 609,  who  entered 
Douay  College,  Jan.  12,  1628,  under  the  alias  of  Parker,  was  ordained  priest, 
was  known  under  the  alias  of  Mollyns  on  the  Mission,  was  rural  dean  of  West 
Derby  Hundred,  and  treasurer  of  the  Lancashire  Clergy  Fund,  died  March  30, 
1674,  and  was  buried  at  the  Harkirk  Cemetery,  and  a  dau.,  Ellen,  wife  of  Wil- 
liam Parker,  eldest  son  and  heir  of  John  Parker,  of  Bradkirk  Hall;  and  (5)  John, 
of  Barnacre,  who  had  a  son  and  namesake  a  recusant  in  1607.  Francis  Beesley,  of 
The  Hill,  was  succeeded  in  1609  by  his  son  and  heir  George,  who  was  then 
twenty-three  years  of  age,  and  Henry,  the  second  son,  married  and  resided  at 
The  Brooks  in  Bleasdale,  till  that  estate  was  sold  with  The  Hill  about  1648-9, 
when  he  removed  to  Ingolhead,  and  died  in  1666.  Francis  may  have  had  a  third 
son,  Edward  Beesley,  who  went  to  Valladolid  in  1622,  under  the  alias  of 
Hoghton,  left  to  enter  the  Society  in  1629,  subsequently  became  procurator 
at  the  Jesuit  College  at  Madrid,  and  died  there  in  1654.  George  seems  to  have 
gone  to  Brabant  in  1632-3,  but  was  back  at  The  Hill  and  a  recusant  in  1635-6. 
His  son  Francis  Beesley  sold  The  Hill  and  The  Brooks  estates  to  Richard  Black- 
burne,  of  Scorton  Hall,  Thistleton,  and  Newton,  in  1648-9,  after  which  the 
history  of  the  Beesleys  is  difficult  to  trace.  Henry  of  Ingolhead  had  a  son, 
George,  of  the  same  place,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1668,  and  he  had  sons 
Henry,  of  Ingolhead,  will  proved  in  1702,  Thomas,  Ralph,  Richard,  of  Goos- 
nargh  in  1685,  and  George.  The  Right  Rev.  Mgr  John  Beesley,  of  Stretford, 
ordained  priest  at  Salford  from  Ushaw  in  1862,  is  descended  from  this  family. 
^William  Cardwell's  will  was  proved  in  1668,  and  that  of  Cuthbert  Card- 
well  of  Barton,  in  1667.  The  family  was  numerous,  and  is  difficult  to  trace.  A 
pedigree  was  published  in  Foster's  Lancashire  Pedigrees  in  1873  by  the  Right 
Hon.  Edward  Cardwell,  who  was  created  Viscount  Cardwell  of  Ellerbeck  in  1 874, 
but  it  is  most  unreliable  and  incorrect  in  the  earlier  generations.  The  branch 
represented  by  Lord  Cardwell,  apparently  lost  its  Faith  early  in  the  eighteenth 
century.  Thomas  Cardwell,  of  Barton  and  Goosnargh,  whose  will,  dated 
March  9,  1692,  and  proved  in  1693  by  his  wife  Helen,  probably  a  Taylor,  was 
the  father  of  Robert,  of  Barton,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1730;  William,  of 
Barton,  tanner,  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  i7i7,who  registered  a  property  originally 
leased  by  Richard  Shuttleworth,  Esq.,  in  1670  to  Cuthbert  Cardwell,  then 
deceased,  and  afterwards  assigned  to  the  non- juror's  father;  Richard  of 
Broughton,  yeoman,  non-juror  in  17 17,  who  registered  a  freehold  and  lease- 
hold in  Broughton  and  Whittingham,  and  whose  will  was  proved  in  1722;  and 
John,  who  was  admitted  into  the  English  College  at  Rome,  Oct.  18,  1695,  aged

nary at  Paris,  where  he  pursued  his  studies,  and  then  came  to  the  mission.  In 
1 7 16  Peploe,  the  vicar  of  Preston,  informed  the  Council  that  John  Cardwell,  a 
Popish  Priest  abroad,  held  an  estate  called  Belle  Living,  in  Broughton,  under 
lease  from  Mr  Shuttleworth.  He  died  Sept.  17,  1728,  aged  53.  EUzabeth,  dau. 
of  William  Cardwell,  of  Barton,  yeoman,  who  died  Feb.  21,  1697,  from  whom 
Lord  Cardwell  descended,  married  in  1671  Roger  Gradell,  of  Barton,  who  died 
in  1700,  descended  from  Roger,  a  younger  son  of  Christopher  Gradell,  of 
Barbies  Moor,  in  Ulnes  Walton,  by  Jennet,  dau.  of  Richard  Charnock,  of 
Charnock  Richard.  She  subsequently  removed  to  Femyhalgh,  within  Brough- 
ton, where  she  was  a  non-juror  in  171 7,  and  by  her  will,  dated  Dec.  4,  17 19,  and 
proved  in  1728,  she  left  bequests  to  her  daughter  Margaret,  wife  of  William 
Shepherd,  of  Fernyhalgh,  father  of  William  Shepherd,  of  Croxteth.  One  of  the 
Card  wells  married  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  James  Sidgreaves,  of  Inglewhite  Lodge, 
and  had  issue  James  Cardwell;  Mary,  wife  of  Mr  Rigby,  of  Walton-le-Dale,  and 
mother  of  the  Rev.  John  Rigby  and  the  Rev.  Nicholas  Rigby,  who  died 
respectively  in  1871,  aged  ^6,  and  1886  aged  86;  Isabel,  wife  of  Mr  MacNeal;  and 
Nancy,  wife  of  James  Midgeall,  of  Blacke  Hall,  in  Goosnargh,  whose  son  Robert 
alienated  that  ancient  inheritance  in  1807. 

^The  Kitchens  are  on  the  recusant  rolls  from  the  commencement  in,  1 591. 
The  will  of  Thomas  Kitchen,  of  Barton,  was  proved  in  1677.  Anne  Kitchen, 
widow,  was  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  17 17  at  Barton,  and  her  will  was  proved  in 
1732.  They  were  spread  about  in  neighbouring  townships.  Edward  Kitchen 
alias  Smith  took  the  oath  at  Douay  in  1670,  was  ordained  priest,  and  succeeded 
Rev.  John  Langton  alias  Baldwin  at  Higher  Shuttlingfields,  in  Walton-le-dale, 
in  1684,  and  thence  succeeded  Rev.  George  Crook  at  Bank  Hall  in  Broughton 
in  1709,  and  whilst  there  on  Jan.  15,  17 16,  was  convicted  at  the  Lancaster 
sessions  as  "a  reputed  Popish  Priest."  His  nephew,  the  Rev.  Edward  Kitchen, 
educated  at  Douay  and  Lisbon,  died  a  professor  at  the  latter  college  in  1732. 
Rev.  John  Kitchen  alias  Marsden,  born  in  1741,  ordained  at  Douay  in  1768  and 
appointed  a  professor,  left  May  15,  1770,  and  was  appointed  to  Chester,  where 
he  was  succeeded  in  1794  by  Rev.  James  Lancaster.  The  Rev.  Edward  Kitchen 
alias  Marsden,  born  in  1747,  ordained  at  Douay  in  1770,  left  Aug.  17,  1772,  and 
was  appointed  chaplain  at  Lartington  Hall,  and  there  he  remained  till  he  was 
recalled  to  Douay  to  be  President  of  the  College,  where  he  arrived  July  30,  1791, 
but  owing  to  the  terrible  effect  produced  on  his  nerves  and  health  by  the  French 
Revolution,  he  resigned  his  office  and  left  the  College  for  England  on  the 
following  October  3,  and  returning  to  Lartington  died  there  Jan.  3,  1793-  The 
Kitchens  leased  Catforth  Hall,  in  Woodplumpton,  early  in  the  eighteenth 
century,  and  farmed  it  for  some  time.

engaged  in  the  civil  wars  who  had  to  compound  for  his  estate,  married  Alice, 
dau.  of  Richard  Gillow,  of  Bryning,  but  died  sine  prole,  and  was  buried  at  St 
Michael's-on-Wyre,  Dec.  31,  1690.  Though  described  as  yeoman  in  the  roll,  he 
always  appears  as  gentleman  in  deeds.  His  grandfather  and  namesake,  from 
whom  the  estates  descended,  was  an  active  Royalist,  married  Alice,  dau.  of 
Thomas  Singleton,  of  Staining  Hall,  by  Cecily,  dau.  of  William  Gerard,  of  Ince 
Hall,  and  besides  Richard,  his  son  and  heir,  had  a  younger  son  George,  whose 
son  John,  of  Great  Eccleston,  by  his  wife  Ann,  dau.  of  William  Hoole,  of  Staynoe, 
was  the  father  of  Fathers  Richard  and  Thomas  Leckonby,  S.J.,  the  former 
of  whom  died  at  Croston  Hall  in  1 77 1 ,  aged  seventy- two,  and  the  latter  in  Mary- 
land in  1734,  aged  thirty- two.  John  Leckonby,  the  recusant  named  in  the  text, 
was  succeeded  according  to  the  entail  by  his  brother  Richard,  who  married 
Ann,  dau.  of  William  Hesketh,  of  Maynes  Hall,  by  Perpetua,  dau.  of  Thomas 
Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall.  His  daughters.  Sisters  Mary  Aloysia  and  Anne 
Winefred,  were  professed  Poor  Clares  at  Gravelines  in  1718  and  1729,  and  died 
respectively  in  1751  and  1756,  aged  fifty-two  and  fifty;  and  his  son  and  heir, 
William  Leckonby,  married  Ann,  dau.  of  Thomas  Hothersall,  of  Hother- 
sall  Hall,  and  sister  and  coheiress  of  John  Hothersall,  and  brought  to 
the  family  the  manor  of  Hothersall  and  other  estates;  and  she  and 
her  husband  with  their  five  children  are  depicted  in  the  family  group 
entitled  "The  Heiress  of  Hothersall  Hall,"  published  in  Smith's  Hist,  of 
Rihchester.  The  infant  in  the  lap  of  the  mother  is  the  portrait  of  Fr  Thomas 
Leckonby,  S.J.,  born  in  171 7,  who  served  Pontop  Hall,  Durham,  from  1748 
till  his  death  in  1778.  The  eldest  son  Richard  succeeded  to  the  family 
estates,  and  with  his  wife  Mary,  dau.  and  eventual  coheiress  of  William 
Hathornthwaite,  of  the  Demesne  of  Catshaw,  by  Ellen,  dau.  and  coheiress  of 
Richard  Blackburne,  of  Stockenbridge  Manor,  acquired  the  Demesne  of  Cat- 
shaw, adjoining  Hathornthwaite,  Livesey  Hall  in  Sutton,  the  Luddocks  estate, 
and  land  in  Hale.  Richard  Leckonby,  the  last  squire,  died  in  1783,  his  only  son 
William  having  been  killed  whilst  hunting  in  Wyresdale  in  the  preceding  year. 
Mary  Leckonby,  the  son's  daughter  and  sole  heiress,  bom  in  1777,  became  the 
wife  of  Thomas  Henry  Hele  Phipps,  of  Leighton  House,  Wilts,  J. P.,  D.L.,  High 
Sheriff  of  that  county  in  1804,  and  thus  the  Leckonby  family  became  extinct  in 
the  male  line.  There  were  two  secular  priests  who  went  by  the  name  of  Leckon- 
by, probably  that  of  their  grandmother,  whose  real  name  was  White,  sons  of 
John  White,  of  Great  Eccleston,  and  his  wife  Alice  Southworth,  Luke,  born  in 
1 708,  who  was  ordained  at  Rome  in  1 73 1 ,  and  lived  many  years  at  Alston,  where 
he  died  in  July,  1765,  and  John,  born  in  1710,  who,  after  studying  at  Ferny- 
halgh,  went  to  Rome,  where  he  was  ordained  in  1733,  left  for  Douay  to  finish 
his  theology  in  1 7 34,  and  on  J une  1 4, 1 73  5 ,  set  out  for  the  mission  in  Yorkshire,  and 
resided  with  Mr  Markham,  whence  in  1741  he  removed  to  Euxton  Hall,  the 
seat  of  the  Andertons,  where  he  remained  till  his  death,  Feb.  7,  1778. 

2  Elizabeth  Hoole,  of  Elswick,  spinster,  was  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  17 17. 
The  will  of  her  father  was  proved  in  1715.  By  will  dated  April  26,  1727,  she 
charged  a  meadow  in  Elswick,  which  she  gave  to  the  Catholic  chapel  at  Great 
Eccleston,  with  the  annual  payment  of  £7)  to  the  poor  of  Elswick,  and  her  will 
was  proved  in  1730.  Her  sister  Ann,  in  1682  married  John  Leckonby,  of  Great 
Eccleston,  father  of  the  two  Jesuits.  The  Hooles  were  of  ancient  lineage.  William 
Hoole,  senior,  was  descended  from  John  Hoole  or  Hulle,  of  Carlton,  who  in 
1548  married  Alice,  dau.  of  WiUiam  Gillow,  of  Bryning,  and  had  issue  a  son

extern,  and  died  in  1792,  aged  sixty-seven. 

^The  will  of  Wilham  Turner's  father  and  namesake,  also  of  Elswick, 
yeoman,  was  proved  in  1631,  and  his  own  in  1668.  His  son  and  namesake,  whose 
will  was  dated  Oct.  29,  1703,  and  proved  in  1704,  by  Margaret  his  wife,  had  issue 
John  Turner,  of  Elswick,  yeoman,  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  17 17,  Laurence,  Anne, 
married  to  John  Roe  in  1722,  and  Elizabeth.  John  Turner  sold  his  estate  in 
Elswick  to  William  Smith,  of  Elswick,  likewise  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  17 17,  a 
younger  son  of  the  family  settled  at  Cornerow  in  Greenhalgh-cum-Thistleton 
and  at  Forton,  whose  son  Robert  was  the  father  of  William,  his  eldest  son,  Alice, 
wife  of  Robert  Haydock,  of  Leach  Hall,  in  Bartle,  and  Richard.  Richard's 
son  Robert,  of  Larbreck,  by  his  wife  Ann,  sister  to  the  Right  Rev.  George 
Browne,  first  Bishop  of  Liverpool,  had  a  son  Richard,  of  Preston,  father  of  the 
Rev.  Robert  Smith,  D.D.,  formerly  vice-rector  of  the  English  College  at  Rome, 
the  Rev.  Bro.  Edward  Gilbert  Smith,  Xaverian,  who  died  at  Mayfield,  Dec.  3, 
1907,  aged  seventy-seven,  and  Sarah,  widow  of  Henry  John  Hansom,  of 
London,  eldest  son  of  the  eminent  architect,  Joseph  A.  Hansom. 

2  The  will  of  Elizabeth  Helme  (Holme  and  Holmes  were  common  corruptions 
of  the  name)  was  proved  in  1690.  The  Helmes  of  Lea  were  a  junior  branch  of  the 
very  old  family  of  the  name  seated  at  Church  House  in  Goosnargh,  of  whom 
John  Helme,  a  priest,  was  living  there  in  1478,  and  another  of  the  same  name 
was  curate  of  Goosnargh  in  1 583,  whilst  a  third  priest,  says  Col.  Fishwick  in  his 
Hist,  of  Goosnargh,  Nicholas  Helme,  was  vicar  of  Kirkham  in  1594.  Dom  Hugh 
Bede  Helme  alias  Tapin,  O.S.B.,  a  native  of  Lancashire,  whom  Abbot  Snow  in 
his  Benedictine  Necrology  confuses  with  Thomas  Tunstall  alias  Helmes,  the 
martyr,  in  1600  was  admitted  into  the  English  College  at  Valladolid,  which  he 
left  to  join  the  Benedictines  in  1603,  and  died  in  Durham  in  1629;  Dom  Gregory 
Helme,  O.S.B.,  died  in  1696;  Dom  Richard  Helme,  or  Holmes,  O.S.B.,  died  at 
Sefton  in  1717;  and  Dom  Thomas  Wilfrid  Helme,  O.S.B.,  of  the  Church  House 
family,  professed  in  1699,  died  in  1742.  There  were  several  Franciscans  of  the 
family — Fr  Thomas  Willibrord  Helme  or  Holmes  was  serving  in  the  neighbour- 
hood of  Goosnargh,  probably  at  White  Hill,  in  1728,  and  died  in  1772  or  1773; 
Fr  Germanus  Helme  or  Holmes  succeeded  to  White  Hill  in  1738,  and  from  thence 
served  Lee  House  till  1745,  when  he  was  thrown  into  Lancaster  Castle,  where 
he  died  a  confessor  of  the  faith  in  1 746 ;  and  Edward  Helme  or  Holme,  a  novice 
at  Douay  in  1757,  was  assistant  chaplain  to  the  English  nuns  at  Acre  in  Artois, 
subsequently  came  to  the  mission,  and  finally  conformed,  and  as  a  reward  for 
his  apostasy  received  a  living  in  Essex,  but  died  the  day  he  preached  his  first 
sermon,  about  1773.  And  lastly  may  be  named  a  direct  descendant  of  the  lady 
of  the  text,  the  Rev.  Edward  Helme  or  Holmes,  son  of  Thomas  Helme,  of  Lea, 
tanner,  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717,  and  his  wife  Elizabeth  Barton,  born  in 
Jan.,  1725,  who,  after  studying  at  Femyhalgh  and  the  Rev.  Simon  George 
Bordley's  school  at  Salwick  Hall,  was  admitted  into  Douay  College,  Sept.  25, 
'^72)7>  ordained  priest  Sept.  21,  1748,  after  teaching  syntax,  poetry,  and  philo- 
sophy, came  to  the  mission  in  1753,  and  was  appointed  to  Manchester,  which 
he  served  till  his  death,  Oct.  16,  1773.  His  brother's  daughter  became  the  wife 
of  John  Turner,  an  attorney  in  Preston,  and  was  mother  of  the  Rt  Rev.  WiUiam 
Turner,  first  Bishop  of  Salford,  born  1799,  died  1872,  whose  brother  John  suc- 
ceeded to  the  small  estate  of  the  Helmes  in  Lea,  which  is  now  held  by  his  son  and 
namesake.  ^  His  will  was  proved  in  1667.

^The  will  of  John  Harrison,  of  Lea,  yeoman,  was  proved  in  1669,  and  that 
of  his  grandson  and  namesake,  son  and  heir  of  John  Harrison,  of  Lea,  yeoman, 
was  proved  Aug.  7,  1 723,  by  Elizabeth,  his  widow,  dau.  of  Christopher  Walmesley 
and  his  wife  Margaret.  The  marriage  settlement  between  John  Harrison  and 
Elizabeth  Walmesley  was  dated  Nov.  2,  1700.  They  were  a  very  staunch  recu- 
sant family.  John  Harrison,  son  of  John  and  Elizabeth,  born  Sept.  21,  17 14, 
went  to  Douay  in  Sept;,  1729,  was  ordained  priest  Dec.  23,  1741,  and  was  placed 
at  Cottam,  where  his  house  and  chapel  were  attacked  in  1745  iDy  a  No-Popery 
mob,  whom  "he  resisted  with  intrepidity,"  says  an  old  writing,  but  both  were 
burnt  down  by  the  ruffians.  He  then  removed  to  Towneley  Hall,  the  seat  of  the 
Towneleys,  where  he  remained  for  thirty  years,  as  long  as  his  strength  permitted 
him  to  serve,  and  then  he  retired  to  the  house  of  his  brother  Lawrence  in  Friar- 
gate,  Preston,  where  he  died  Jan.  16,  1780. 

2  The  Sherringtons  were  recusants  in  Ashton  temp.  Jac.  I.  Francis  Sher- 
rington, Esq.,  died  a  prisoner  for  recusancy  in  Lancaster  Castle  about  1679,  but 
he  was  of  Booths,  another  family,  and  administration  to  his  estate  was  granted 
in  1684.  The  will  of  Elizabeth  Sherrington,  of  Ashton,  was  proved  1618-9,  and 
that  of  Margaret  Sherrington,  of  the  same,  in  1683.  The  family  subsequently 
removed  to  Preston,  where  Henry  Sherrington  died  July  12,  1834,  aged  sixty- 
three,  father  of  the  late  Madame  Lemens-Sherrington,  the  famous  singer. 

3  The  various  spellings  of  this  name  have  already  been  noted.  The  family 
originally  came  from  Charnock  Richard,  and  branches  were  settled  at  Euxton, 
Clayton,  and  neighbouring  townships.  The  way  they  came  to  Lea  is  as  follows. 
Roger  Critchlowe,  of  Charnock  Richard,  married  Margaret,  natural  daughter 
of  Alexander  Hoghton,  of  Lea  Hall  and  Hoghton  Tower,  who  died  in  1581, 
leaving  in  his  will  considerable  legacies  to  Margaret  Critchlowe  and  her  family, 
which,  however,  he  afterwards  revoked  by  codicil.  Nevertheless,  Roger  Critch- 
lowe probably  received  a  grant  of  land  at  Lea  from  his  wife's  father.  Both  he 
and  his  wife  appear  as  recusants  from  the  commencement  of  the  rolls  in  34  Eliz. 
1 591-2  till  161 3-14  or  later,  and  for  some  years  after  1622  Margaret  appears  as 
a  widow.  In  16 14  Roger  Crichlowe,  junior,  and  his  wife  Margaret  appear,  and  in 
1627  William  Crichlowe  and  his  widowed  mother  Margaret,  all  of  Charnock 
Richard.  In  161 3  William  Critchlow,  gent.,  was  living  at  Lea;  and  it  is  said  that 
during  the  civil  wars  the  family  residence  at  Lea  was  partially  demolished,  and 
was  rebuilt  by  this  William,  or  a  namesake  and  grandson  of  Roger.  In  1679  a 
clock  was  put  up  in  the  front  of  their  residence,  which  struck  the  hour,  and  from 
which  it  was  afterwards  known  as  Clock  House.  In  17 17  Ann  Chritchlow,  of 
Newsham,  widow  of  William  Chritchlow,  of  Lea,  gent.,  registered  her  estate  as 
a  Catholic  non- juror.  The  wills  of  three  Williams  (of  Lea)  were  proved  respec- 
tively in  1673,  171 1,  and  1748,  the  last  leaving  a  widow  Elizabeth.  The  family 
lost  its  religion  towards  the  end  of  the  eighteenth  century,  the  last  possessor 
of  the  estate  being  chiefly  remarkable  for  his  loose  and  profane  language.  It  is 
said  that  James  Critchley,  son  of  William  Critchley,  as  the  name  was  latterly 
spelt,  was  a  captain  in  the  Liverpool  Light  Horse,  and  died  in  1873.  The 
Critchleys  were  distinguished  for  their  size,  being  very  tall  and  often  of  heavy 
build.  Clock  House,  situated  in  Sidgreaves  Lane,  Lea,  was  sold,  by  the  last  of 
the  family  resident  there,  to  George  Gillow,  of  Moor  House,  Newton-cum- 
Scales,  about  the  end  of  the  eighteenth  century,  and  by  him  it  was  transferred 
to  William  Smith,  of  Forton.  A  new  house  was  erected  slightly  in  front  of  the 
old  one,  but  the  remains  of  the  ancient  clock  and  its  works  were  still  in  existence 
in  the  old  building  in  the  early  years  of  the  nineteenth  century.  In  compara- 
tively recent  times  the  name  has  been  changed  to  Lea  Lodge.

^The  will  of  James  Hollinghead,  of  Ingol,  was  proved  in  1668. 

2  This  is  an  error  for  Margaret  ffrance,  of  Greaves  Town,  in  Ashton,  a  very- 
ancient  family  which  had  resided  there  for  many  generations,  and  constantly 
appears  in  the  rolls.  John  ffrance,  of  Greaves  Town,  married  Margaret,  younger 
daughter  and  coheiress  of  Richard  Eccleston  or  Kerstone,  of  Little  Eccleston 
Hall,  who  died  in  or  about  1546,  when  that  manor  passed  to  the  ffrances.  Their 
son  John  ffrance,  of  Little  Eccleston  Hall  and  Greaves  Town,  married  Alice, 
dau.  of  George  Gillow,  of  Bryning,  and  on  the  same  day,  March  10,  1551,  her 
brother  Richard  Gillow,  of  Bryning,  married  Alice,  sister  of  John  ffrance.  The 
latter's  grandson  and  namesake  had  three  sons,  John,  Henry,  and  William. 
It  is  the  family  tradition  that  William  obtained  the  Little  Eccleston  estate 
through  apostacy.  Anyhow,  his  descendants  continued  to  hold  that  estate,  and 
resided  there  till  his  greatgrandson,  John  ffrance,  acquired  Rawcliffe  Hall, 
forfeited  from  the  Butlers  on  account  of  the  part  they  took  in  the  Jacobite  rising 
in  1 7 1 5 ,  through  his  marriage  with  Elizabeth,  daughter  and  heiress  of  Thomas 
Roc  who  had  purchased  the  estate.  Their  only  son  John  ffrance,  of  Rawcliffe 
Hall  and  Little  Eccleston  Hall,  died  s.p.  in  18 17,  aged  ninety-one,  when  his 
extensive  estates  were  devised  to  Thomas  Wilson,  of  Preston,  who  assumed  the 
name  of  ffrance,  whose  wife  was  a  distant  relation  of  John  ffrance's  grand- 
mother. The  descendants  of  the  elder  branch  of  the  family  continued  to  reside 
at  Greaves  Town.  John  ffrance,  great  grandson  of  the  eldest  brother  of  William, 
the  ancestor  of  the  Rawcliffe  branch,  married  Anne,  sister  and  coheiress  of 
Dom  Oswald  Eaves,  O.S.B.  (descended  from  the  ancient  Catholic  family  of 
Eyves  of  Fishwick  Hall,  who  died  in  1793,  aged  fifty-four), and  his  grandson, 
John  ffrance,  of  Greaves  Town,  married  Mary,  daughter  of  John  Gillow,  of 
Elswick  Grange  and  Salwick  Hall,  and  died  in  1883,  aged  eighty- three,  when  the 
Greaves  Town  estate  descended  according  to  the  entail  to  his  eldest  son  and 
namesake,  who  disposed  of  it,  and  died  unmarried.  Greaves  Town  contained 
much  antique  oak  furniture,  old  china  and  other  ornamental  effects  of  the  early 
Stuart  period,  handed  down  from  generation  to  generation,  all  of  which  have 
been  dispersed,  and  the  house  itself  has  been  turned  into  a  farm.

1  Robert  Plesington,  of  Byreworth  in  Garstang,  was  buried  Jan.  20, 1669-70, 
and  the  will  of  his  widow  Jane  (of  the  text)  was  proved  in  1670.  He  was  pro- 
bably a  younger  son  of  Robert  Plesington,  of  Dimples  Hall.^by  his  second  wife 
Jane,  daughter  of  Christopher  Parker,  of  Radham  Laund.  He  had  a  son  John 
buried  at  Garstang  in  161 1 ,  another,  Thomas,  to  whom  in  his  will  dated  Jan.  25, 
1665,  he  left  his  land  in  Great  Eccleston  known  as  Plesingtons,  and  daughters 
Anne,  wife  of  George  Whittingham  (whose  son  Robert  seems  to  have  succeeded 
to  Byreworth),  Margaret,  Grace,  Jane  and  Katharine. 

2  This  venerable  old  lady  was  the  very  last  of  the  ancient  race  of  Travers  of 
Nateby  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Garstang,  and  of  Tulketh  Hall  in  Ashton,  in  the 
parish  of  Preston.  The  Travers  family  came  over  with  William  the  Conqueror, 
and  obtained  the  manor  of  Nateby  towards  the  close  of  the  thirteenth  century, 
when  Thomas  Travers,  son  of  Lawrence,  married  Isabel,  daughter  and  heiress 
of  William  de  Nateby.  Lawrence,  son  and  heir  of  Thomas  Travers  and  Isabel 
Nateby,  married  Elena,  dau.  and  coheiress  of  John  de  Haydock,  of  Tulketh 
Castle  in  Ashton,  an  estate  inherited  by  the  Haydocks  of  Haydock  and  Cottam 
from  the  dau.  and  heiress  of  Marmaduke  de  Tulketh  early  in  the  twelfth 
century.  Thus  the  two  estates  descended  from  father  to  son  till  the  time  of 
William  Travers,  and  his  son  Richard,  who  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation 
of  161 3,  each  generation  having  intermarried  with  the  oldest  families  of  the 
counties  of  Lancashire,  Yorkshire  and  Westmorland.  They  were  true  to  the 
old  Faith,  and  suffered  heavily  for  their  recusancy,  both  in  fine  and  imprison- 
ment. William  Travers,  who  suffered  imprisonment  for  recusancy  in  1584,  was 
the  son  of  Richard  Travers  by  Grace,  dau.  of  Richard  Redman,  of  Harewood 
Castle,  Co.  York.  He  married  Annetta,  dau.  of  Thomas  Lathom,  of  Parbold 
Hall,  by  Isabel,  dau.  of  Alexander  Standish,  of  Standish  Hall,  and  had  three  sons, 
Richard,  Edward,  and  William,  and  five  daughters,  Isabel,  Ellen,  Dorothy  (of 
the  text),  Eleanor,  and  Katherine.  Edward,  the  second  son  went  to  St  Omer's 
College,  whence  he  proceeded  to  Rome,  where  he  entered  the  English  hospice, 
Sept.  20,  1 61 9,  under  the  alias  of  Francis  Hill,  and  on  the  same  date  was 
admitted  into  the  English  College  as  a  convictor,  as  Edward  Hill  vere  Travers, 
but  left  on  July  16,  1621,  and  eventually  was  admitted  into  the  English  College 
of  Valladolid,  in  1623,  under  the  a^ms  of  Edward  Kisley  alias  Houghton.  There 
he  completed  his  third  year's  theology,  and  left  for  Flanders  on  Sept.  22,  1629, 
to  enter  the  Society,  but  for  some  reason  was  not  received  till  1642,  when 
he  was  already  a  priest,  being  at  the  time  forty  or  forty-one  years  of  age.  He 
again  visited  the  English  hospice  at  Rome  on  Jan.  i,  1646,  under  his  own  name, 
but  in  the  following  April  is  entered  as  Fr  Edward  Risley.  After  this  he  became 
English  Procurator  at  Madrid,  and  died  there  in  1654.  Of  WilUam,  the  third  son, 
nothing  is  known.  Two  of  the  daughters  married — Isabel  to  Alderman  James 
Wall,  of  Moor  Hall,  Preston  (son  of  Thomas  Wall,  of  the  same  by  Jane,  dau.  of 
Oliver  Tootell,  of  Lower  Healey  Hall),  whose  dau.  Margery  married  (i)  John 
Hothersall  of  Hothersall  Hall,  and  (2)  Robert  Haydock  of  Cottam  Hall;  and 
Ellen  to  Maxey  Nelson,  of  Fairhurst  Hall,  Captain  of  Foot  in  the  King's  Army,

who  was  slain  at  the  battle  of  Marston  Moor,  July  2,  1644.  Richard,  the  eldest 
son,  who  was  twenty-three  years  of  age  in  161 3,  joined  with  his  father  in  1626, 
in  the  sale  of  Nateby  Hall  estate  to  George  Preston,  of  Holker  Hall,  whose 
grandson  George  conveyed  it  in  1654  to  Walter  Strickland,  of  Sizergh  Castle, 
CO.  Westmorland,  and  his  son,  Robert,  again  sold  it  to  George  Leyburne,  of 
Cunswick  Hall  in  that  county.  About  the  same  time  the  Tulketh  Hall  estate 
was  sold  to  the  Werdens.  Thus  the  family  came  to  an  end,  and  the  name  disap- 
pears from  the  records  of  that  part  of  the  county.  The  chapel  in  Nateby  Hall 
was  almost  continuously  served  from  the  time  of  Elizabeth  till  almost  the  close 
of  the  eighteenth  century,  for  its  owners  were  all  Catholics  till  it  finally  passed 
into  Protestant  hands  about  1807.  The  names  of  many  of  the  chaplains  are 
preserved.  As  for  Tulketh  Hall,  at  which  the  monks  temporarily  settled  in  1 124 
before  erecting  Furness  Abbey,  Mass  continued  to  be  said  in  its  domestic 
chapel  during  the  reigns  of  Elizabeth  and  her  immediate  successors.  From  the 
Werdens  it  passed  to  the  Rawstornes,  and  from  them  to  the  Heskeths,  and 
during  their  residence,  in  1687,  Bishop  John  Leyburne  confirmed  1,153  persons 
there  and  in  the  chapel  at  Preston.  Some  of  the  priests'  names  are  on  record. 
Tulketh  Hall,  planted  on  an  elevated  site  overlooking  the  Ribble,  close  to 
Preston,  and,  in  the  writer's  recollection  approached  by  an  avenue  of  ancient 
trees  from  the  marsh  below,  was  a  large  and  very  ancient  structure,  greatly 
altered  in  appearance  under  so-called  restoration  by  the  eminent  architect,  J. A. 
Hansom,  in  his  younger  days.  It  has  recently  been  acquired  by  the  Brothers  of 
Charity  and  turned  into  a  Home,  but  it  is  now  surrounded  by  streets  of  small 
houses,  and  forms  an  integral  part  of  Preston. 

1  Thomas  Greene,  of  Bowers  House,  in  Little  Nateby,  married  Margaret, 
dau.of  Edward  Ireland,  of  Lydiate  Hall.  Thomas  and  William  Greene  appear  in 
the  roll  for  1679.  The  family  had  long  resided  at  Bowers  House,  a  fine  old  mansion 
in  the  early  seventeenth-century  style  of  architecture,  bearing  the  date  1627, 
and  the  initials  R.G.,  and  G.G.,  for  Richard  Greene  and  Grace  his  wife,  who 
both  appear  in  the  rolls  between  161 3  and  1637.  How  the  family  became 
possessed  of  the  estate  has  not  been  ascertained.  In  the  reign  of  Edward  III  it 
belonged  to  Robert  de  Bower.  Richard  Greene  was  the  surviving  executor  to 
Thomas  Lord  Gerard  in  161 8.  His  son  Richard  married  Dorothy,  daughter  of 
John  Brockholes,  of  Claughton  Hall,  and  was  the  father  of  Thomas  of  the  text. 
Dorothy's  will  was  proved  in  1661.  Thomas  Greene  was  buried  at  Garstang, 
March  23,  1708-9.  His  widow  and  her  sons  Thomas  and  William  were  living  at 
Bowers  House  in  1711-14,  and  are  often  referred  to  by  Tyldesley,  the  diarist.

There  was  a  chapel  in  the  mansion,  with  the  necessary  hiding  places,  approached 
by  curious  winding  stairs.  On  Sunday,  Oct.  26,  1712,  Tyldesley  went  there  for 
Mass.  but  his  loyalty  to  "James  III"  was  evidently  sorely  offended,  for  he 
adds,  "but  Sherdy  did  not  pray  for  our  master."  Sherdy  or  Shirdley  was  proba- 
bly one  of  the  congregation  and  not  the  priest.  In  1 717  Thomas  Greene's  dau„ 
Agnes  Greene,  was  residing  at  Bowers  House,  and  registered  her  estate  as  a 
Catholic  non- juror.  It  was  possibly  her  brother  John  Greene,  of  Bowers  House, 
who  married  Ann,  dau.  of  Thomas  Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall  and  Bume  Hall, 
by  Bridget,  dau.  of  Thomas  Clifton,  of  Lytham  Hall,  Westby  Hall,  and  Clifton 
Hall.  The  estate  seems  to  have  passed  from  the  family  about  1745,  and  it  then 
removed  from  the  district.  It  was  John  Greene  who  was  so  successful  in  defend- 
ing Lord  Molyneux,  Sir  Thomas  Chfton,  Bart.,  and  other  Lancashire  Catholics 
in  1694  2ind  1695,  3^nd  his  grandson  Francis  Greene  married  Elizabeth,  dau. 
and  eventual  coheiress  of  Cuthbert  Clifton,  of  Sal  wick,  Sir  Thomas  Clifton's 
nephew.  The  issue  of  this  marriage  was  Father  Francis  Greene,  S.J.,  born  1748, 
died  1774;  Thomas,  bom  1753,  who  was  still  alive,  and  resident  in  Liverpool,  in 
1833;  and  Frances,  wife  of  Thomas  West,  of  Eccleston,  father  of  Father 
Francis  West,  S.J.,  who  died  in  1852,  aged  seventy. 

1  Richard  Newsham  was  one  of  the  purchasers  of  the  manor  of  Forton  in 
1643-4.  His  will  was  proved  in  1672,  and  that  of  his  elder  brother  Robert  in 
1677.  Their  father  was  WilHam  Newsham,  second  son  of  Robert  Newsham,  of 
Newsham  Hall,  in  Plumpton,  by  his  wife  Elizabeth  Sherburne,  of  Greenhalgh 
Castle.  William's  elder  brother  Richard  was  hving  at  Newsham  Hall  in  1632, 
soon  after  which  the  estate  was  sold.  Richard  married  Barbara,  dau.  of  Edmund 
Fleetwood,  of  Rossall  Grange,  by  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  John  Cheney,  of  Chesham 
Bois,  CO.  Bucks.  Her  brother.  Sir  Paul  Fleetwood,  of  Rossall,  was  bom  about 
1574.  Of  this  family  was  probably  Sister  Anne  Didacus  Newsham,  professed  a 
Poor  Clare  at  Gravelines,  in  1692,  and  died  in  1719,  aged  forty-three.  The 
Newshams  were  once  a  powerful  and  influential  family  in  Lancashire 
and  Yorkshire,  and  had  possessed  Newsham  from  a  remote  period.  The 
family  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1567,  and  another  appears  in 
Fishwick's  Hist,  of  Goosnargh.

^William  Baines,  who  appears  in  the  rolls  as  early  as  1635,  married  Marga- 
ret Sykes,  and  his  son  John  was  ordained  priest  at  the  Enghsh  College  at  Rome, 
Aug.  13,  1662.  Upon  admittance  to  the  College,  in  1659,  he  said  that  his  parents 
were  of  the  middle  class,  but  descended  from  an  ancient  stock,  and  that  he  had 
one  brother  and  two  sisters.  His  parents  had  suffered  much  on  account  of  their 
religion,  and  were  reduced  to  very  slender  means  in  consequence.  He  left  the 
College  for  the  mission,  April  18,  1666.  Mary  Baynes,  named  in  the  text,  is 
probably  identical  with  Sister  Mary  Joseph,  a  Poor  Clare,  professed  at  Grave- 
lines,  in  1706,  after  serving  twenty- two  years  in  the  extern  quarters,  who  died 
in  1 7 18,  aged  sixty-seven.  The  family  had  long  been  settled  in  Nether  Wyresdale, 
and  appears  in  the  rolls  from  the  commencement  in  1591. 

*  The  will  of  John  Cawthorne,  of  Nether  Wyresdale,  was  proved  in  167 1,  and 
that  of  William  Cawthorne,  of  the  same,  in  1692.  The  family  subsequently  lost 
its  faith,  and  late  in  the  eighteenth  century  the  last  of  them,  Elizabeth  Caw- 
thorne, married  James  Fenton,  of  Lancaster,  who  died  in  Nov.,  1791,  aged 
seventy-five.  Their  son,  John  Fenton,  in  1781  assumed  by  Royal  licence  the 
name  of  Cawthorne,  and  resided  at  Fenton-Cawthorne  House  in  Lancaster.  He 
was  Colonel  of  the  Westminster  Regiment  of  Middlesex  Militia,  represented 
Lancaster  in  Parliament  for  many  years,  and  died  in  183 1,  aged  seventy-eight. 
In  his  person  George  HI  once  contemplated  the  revival  of  the  Barony  of  Wyres- 
dale. 

3  The  Parkinsons  of  Swineshead  (or  Swanshead)  in  Wyresdale,  appear 
annually  in  the  rolls.  The  will  of  Laurence  Parkinson,  of  Swineshead,  was 
proved  in  1592,  and  that  of  Thomas,  of  the  same,  gent,,  in  1639.  The  latter  and 
his  son  Laurence  appear  in  the  rolls  between  161 8  and  1633,  after  which  Laur- 
ence alone  appears,  and  his  will  was  proved  in  1664.  Richard  of  the  text, 
continues  on  the  rolls  till  1683,  possibly  being  identical  with  the  Richard  whose 
will  was  proved  in  that  year. 

*  Richard  Blackburne,  of  Scorton  Hall,  was  of  course  one  of  the  Blackbumes 
of  Scorton,  Thistleton,  Eccleston,  and  Stockenbridge,  but  his  exact  place  in  the 
pedigree  is  not  shown.  He  married  Margaret,  daughter  of  Richard  Nelson,  of 
Mawdesley,  a  branch  of  the  Nelsons  of  Fairhurst  Hall,  and  in  1679  and  1682 
Richard  Blackburne  was  residing  at  Mawdesley.  He  died  at  Scorton,  and  his  will 
was  proved  in  1686.  His  widow  continued  to  reside  at  Scorton,  and  was  a 
Catholic  non- juror  in  1717.  By  will  dated  Jan.  15,  17 18,  proved  1720,  she  made 
her  bequests  to  the  poor  of  Nether  Wyresdale  and  Mawdesley.

1  The  Myerscoughs  were  old  recusants  in  Wyresdale,  Thomas,  described  as 
gentleman,  being  on  the  rolls  between  1629-36. 

'  The  will  of  John  Pickering,  of  Scorton,  was  proved  in  1670. 

8  The  will  of  William  Windress  (or  Winderhouse)  of  Lower  Wyresdale  was 
proved  in  1678. 

*  His  will  was  proved  in  1670,  and  that  of  William  Kendall,  of  Barnacre,  in 

1694. 

*  Andrew  Maire  was  the  fourth  son  of  Robert  Maire,  of  Hardwick  Hall,  co. 
Durham.  He  married  Isabel,  dau.  of  John  Richardson,  of  Myerscough,  gent., 
and  according  to  Dugdale's  Visitation  of  Durham  in  1666  had  issue — Thomas, 
John,  Robert,  Anne,  Grace,  and  Mary.  His  will  was  proved  in  1677.  His  son 
Robert,  a  recusant  1679-82,  became  a  silversmith  and  watchmaker  in  Preston, 
and  his  will  was  proved  in  1691. 

*  He  would  no  doubt  be  a  son  of  Roger  Breres,  of  Barnacre,  descended  from 
the  family  seated  at  Walton  Hall,  near  Liverpool. 

'  Probably  son  of  Christopher  Caton,  of  Barnacre,  a  recusant  as  early  as 
1610.  There  were  several  branches  of  the  family  settled  in  Claughton  and  neigh- 
bouring townships,  and  two  of  them  were  Catholic  non- jurors  in  17 17. 

®  Later  on  under  Claughton  appear  the  names  of  Thomas  Goose  and  Anne 
his  wife.  There  were  several  branches  of  the  family.  Alexander,  Robert,  and 
Henry  Goose  held  lands  in  Barnacre  under  Lord  Gerard  in  1604.  Henry  was  a 
recusant  in  1636,  and  his  will,  or  that  of  one  of  his  name,  was  proved  in  1671. 
"  Old  cos  Tom  Goose,"  and  "Young  cos  Tom  Goose,"  of  Catterall,  are  referred  to 
byTyldesley  inhis  Diary  in  1712.  The  son  was  "out"  in  171 5,  and  in  consequence 
was  attainted  of  high  treason,  and  executed  at  Garstang,  Feb.  14,  17 16.  It  is 
the  local  tradition  that  he  was  arrested  at  Garstang  for  shouting  out  to  the 
Jacobites  as  they  marched  through  the  town — "Hey  ye  on  my  lads  and  you  '11 
take  the  crown  with  a  distaff."  His  father  registered  his  estate  at  Sturzaker 
Houses  in  Catterall  as  a  Cathohc  non-juror  in  1717,  and  dying  in  1721,  was 
succeeded  by  his  second  son  John,  who  had  a  son  Thomas  living  in  Over 
Wyresdale  in  1746.  Some  of  them  were  well-connected,  for  Christopher  Butler, 
born  in  1673,  ^  younger  son  of  Richard  Butler,  of  Rawcliffe  Hall,  married  Agnes, 
dau.  and  heiress  of  Thomas  Goose,  of  Stalmine  Hall.  The  will  of  Alexander 
Goose,  of  Garstang,  was  proved  in  1696.  The  name  latterly  was  spelt  Goss,  and 
the  Right  Rev.  Alexander  Goss,  second  Bishop  of  Liverpool,  who  died  in  1872, 
was  descended  from  this  family. 

*The  will  of  William  Edsforth,  of  Parkhead  in  Barnacre,  was  proved  in 
1697.  The  family  appears  in  the  rolls  from  the  commencement  in  1591-  Subse- 
quently it  removed  to  Myerscough  Plank,  and  the  will  of  Thomas  Edsforth

of  that  place  was  proved  in  1729.  His  grandson  and  namesake  married  Mary, 
dau.  of  James  Sidgreaves,  of  Inglewhite  Lodge,  and  their  son  Thomas,  bom  in 
1777,  married  Alice,  dau.  and  coheiress  of  Robert  Haydock,  of  Leach  Hall. 
The  latter  sold  the  small  estate  of  Myerscough  Plank,  and  was  succeeded  by  his 
son  Thomas  Edsforth,  of  Bradkirk  Hall,  who  married  Barbara,  dau.  of  Richard 
Bilsborrow,  and  sister  of  the  Right  Rev.  John  Bilsborrow,  third  Bishop  of 
Salford,  but  dying  sine  prole  in  1882,  the  family  became  extinct. 

^  George  Whittingham,  son  of  Richard  Whittingham,  of  Barnacre,  married 
(i)  in  1656,  Jennet  Cowell,  of  Goosnargh,  and  (2)  Anne,  dau.  of  Robert  Plesing- 
ton,  of  Byreworth,  in  Garstang,  by  whom  he  had  Robert,  who  seems  to  have 
succeeded  to  Byreworth,  Richard,  Elizabeth,  Jane,  and  Margaret.  George 
Whittingham's  father,  Richard,  who  settled  in  Barnacre,  was  the  second  son 
of  Thomas  Whittingham,  of  Whittingham  Hall,  His  mother  was  Elizabeth,  dau. 
of  Richard  Walmesley. 

2  By  his  will  dated  July  23,  1679,  proved  in  1686,  he  left  considerable 
bequests  to  the  poor. 

3  There  is  an  evident  omission  here.  The  Plesingtons,  of  Dimples  Hall,  in 
Barnacre-with-Bonds  were  a  very  ancient  Catholic  family,  and  returned 
pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of  1567  and  161 3.  Richard  de  Plesington  had  con- 
veyed to  him  the  lands  of  Richard  de  Dimples  in  1373-4.  They  intermarried 
with  leading  county  families.  Alice  Plesington,  named  in  the  text,  was  the  wife 
or  widow  of  Robert  Plesington,  of  Dimples,  and  dau.  of  Laurence  Rawstorne  of 
Newhall,  by  Holcroft,  dau.  of  Robert  Hesketh.of  Rufford  Hall.  Her  husband, who 
suffered  much  for  his  loyalty,  died  in  Oct.,  1668,  at  which  date  his  son  and 
namesake  was  forty-two  years  of  age,  and  the  will  of  the  latter  was  proved  in 
1673.  Mrs  Plesington's  youngest  son,  John,  was  sent  to  the  school  privately 
kept  by  the  Jesuits  at  Scarisbrick  Hall,  and  in  consequence  adopted  the  name 
of  Scarisbrick.  He  was  ordained  priest  at  Valladolid,  and  was  chaplain  at 
Puddington  Hall,  Cheshire,  at  the  time  he  was  arrested  during  the  Gates  Plot 
ferment.  He  was  indicted  and  condemned  to  death  at  Chester  for  being  a  priest, 
and  was  martyred  at  West  Chester,  July  19,  1679.  The  martyr's  aunt  Margaret,

dau.  of  William  Plesington,  of  Dimples,  by  Isabel,  dau,  of  Richard  Fallowiield, 
of  Great  Strickland,  co.  Westmorland,  married  John,  younger  son  of  Richard 
Walmesley,  of  Showley  Hall,  and  ancestor  of  the  Walmesleys  of  Westwood. 
Though  not  shown  in  the  Walmesley  pedigree, it  is  probable  that  from  this  match 
derived  Father  Joseph  Walmesley  alias  Plesington,  S.J,,  born  in  171 5,  educated 
at  Valladolid  and  Liege,  who  was  at  Oxburgh  Hall,  Norfolk,  for  some  years 
before  he  removed  to  Callaly  Castle,  Northumberland,  in  1749,  where  he 
remained  till  his  retirement  from  duty  in  1774,  and  died  at  Alnwick  in  1781. 
The  Plesingtons  continued  to  reside  at  Dimples  Hall  till  the  attainder  of  the 
younger  Robert's  son  John  in  17 16,  after  which  the  estates  were  sold  by  the 
Commissioners  for  Forfeited  Estates.  John's  eldest  son  Robert  was  attainted 
and  convicted  of  high  treason  at  the  same  time,  and  his  sister  Alice's  husband, 
Roger  Muncaster,  town-clerk  of  Garstang,  was  executed  for  high  treason, 
for  joining  the  Chevalier  de  St  George  in  like  manner,  Jan.  27,  1716.  After 
this  the  family  seems  to  have  been  completely  wiped  out,  and  the  hall  is  now  a 
farmhouse.  At  this  period  the  Rev.  James  Gaunt  was  residing  at  Dimples  Hall, 
and  attended  to  the  chapel,  also  serving  that  in  Nateby  Hall.  Subsequently  he 
removed  to  Mowbreck  Hall,  the  seat  of  the  Westbys,  and  afterwards  to  Thurn- 
ham  Hall,  the  seat  of  the  Daltons,  and  died  Oct.  28,  1734. 

^  The  Bartons  of  Claughton  and  Bilsborrow  were  a  branch  of  the  Bartons 
of  Barton  Hall,  descended  from  John,  second  son  of  Richard  Barton,  of  Barton 
Hall,  by  Anne,  dau.  of  Sir  John  Southworth,  of  Samlesbury  Hall.  Richard  died 
Oct.  25,  1572,  and  his  estates  in  Bilsborrow  and  Claughton  passed  to  his  son 
John.  The  latter,  like  his  father,  was  a  staunch  recusant,  and  appears  annually 
in  the  rolls  till  161 8-1 9.  One  of  his  name  was  a  recusant  in  the  roll  for  163 1-2, 
and  the  will  of  John  Barton,  of  Claughton,  was  proved  in  163 1,  and  that  of 
Hugh,  of  the  same,  in  1678.  Alice,  daughter  of  John  Barton,  of  Claughton, 
gent.,  married  William  Butler,  younger  son  of  Henry  Butler,  of  Rawcliffe  Hall, 
by  his  second  wife  Cecily,  dau.  of  Edward  Parkinson,  of  Westfield  in  Claughton, 
gent.,  a  staunch  recusant  who  died  in  163 1.  Thomas  Barton,  of  Claughton, 
gent.,  died  in  171 3.  His  eldest  son  and  heir,  Hugh,  married  Elizabeth,  dau.  of

William  Haydock,  of  Cottam  Hall,  by  Jane,  dau.  of  Hugh  Anderton,  of  Euxton 
Hall,  and  the  nuptial  settlements  were  made  in  1706.  In  Sept.,  17 16,  Hugh 
Barton,  who  resided  at  Bilsborrow,  was  tried  at  Preston  for  high  treason,  but 
was  acquitted,  and  in  17 17  he  registered  his  estate  as  a  Catholic  non- juror.  His 
will  was  proved  in  17 19,  when  he  was  residing  at  Claughton.  He  does  not 
appear  to  have  left  male  issue,  but  administration  to  the  estate  of  ffleetwood 
Barton,  perhaps  his  dau.,  was  granted  in  1720.  His  younger  brother,  Thomas, 
was  also  a  non -juror  in  17 17,  and  he  would  appear  to  have  been  the  last  of  the 
family.  There  were  several  Lancashire  priests  of  the  name,  but  it  is  difficult  to 
identify  them  with  this  family.  The  two  ladies  mentioned  in  the  text  may 
possibly  be  identified  with  Elizabeth  and  Jane  Barton,  of  Claughton,  whose 
wills  were  proved  in  17 10  and  1691  respectively. 

^Cecily,  dau.  of  William  Butler  and  his  wife  Alice,  dau.  of  John  Barton,  of 
Claughton,  married  within  a  few  years  of  this  date  John  Curwen,  of  Claughton. 

*  Richard  Bayne  or  Baines,  born  1607,  was  son  of  Edmund  Bayne,  of 
Catforth  in  Woodplumpton,  by  Alice,  daughter  of  George  Symcocke,  and 
for  some  time  after  his  marriage  resided  in  Catforth.  His  wife.  Jennet,  was 
either  a  Blacowor  a  Kendall.  He  had  two  sons,  Edmund  and  John.  The  latter, 
baptized  by  the  priest  at  Cottam  Hall,  the  Rev.  John  Hughes,  Nov.  30, 
1653,  was  ordained  priest  at  Rome  in  1678,  and  came  to  the  mission  in 
1 68 1,  the  delay  having  been  occasioned  by  the  frenzied  state  of  the  country 
caused  by  the  Oates  Plot.  At  Rome  he  used  the  alias  of  Peter  Blacow,  and 
on  the  mission  was  known  as  John  Kendall.  He  served  the  chapel  in  Cottam 
Hall,  the  seat  of  the  Haydocks,  and  about  1703  took  a  barn  not  far  from 
the  Hall  and  opened  it  as  a  chapel  and  dwelling  house.  This  is  the  origin 
of  the  present  independent  mission  at  Cottam.  There  he  died  and  was  buried 
at  Woodplumpton,  April  5,  1727.  His  will  was  proved  at  Lancaster  by  his 
brother  Edmund  Baine,  of  Catforth,  the  inventory  being  sworn  at  ;^i9.  He  was 
succeeded  at  Cottam  by  his  relative  the  Rev.  Henry  Kendall.  His  brother  was 
a  Catholic  non- juror  in  1717.  The  family  originally  came  from  Caton,  in  the 
parish  of  Lancaster,  and  Dalton  in  the  parish  of  Burton.  An  old  Marian  priest 
named  William  Banes  died  at  Caton  in  1586.  Bishop  Peter  Augustine  Baines, 
O.S.B.,  V.A-W.D.,  who  died  in  1843,  and  his  nephew  Mgr  Peter  Baines,  D.D., 
President  of  the  English  College  at  Lisbon,  who  died  in  1882,  were  descended 
from  the  Claughton  branch.

of  Bilsborrow.  Lawrence  Cottam,  of  Bannister  Hey,  died  Feb.  26,  1606-7, 
leaving  Anne,  his  widow,  and  a  son  Richard,  aged  twenty-one  at  his  father's 
inq.  post  mortem,  July  26,  1608,  who  would,  no  doubt,  be  the  father  of  the 
Lawrence  of  the  text,  who  married  Anne,  daughter  of  John  Hothersall,  of 
Hothersall  Hall,  son  of  Thomas  Hothersall,  of  the  same,  by  Bridget,  dau.  of  Wil- 
liam Haydock,  of  Cottam  Hall,  and  Bridget,  his  wife,  dau.  of  Sir  Richard 
Hoghton,  of  Hoghton  Tower.  Administration  to  Lawrence  Cottam's  estate 
was  granted  in  1691.  Richard,  his  son,  of  Bannister  Hey,  made  his  will,  Jan.  19, 
1693,  proved  in  that  year,  and  his  widow  Ellen,  who  afterwards  resided  at 
Broughton,  was  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  171 7.  Their  children  were  Laurence, 
of  Bannister  Hey,  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  17 17,  who  subsequently  went  to 
Shifnal,  co.  Salop,  and  about  that  time  commenced  to  spell  his  name  Cotham ; 
Thomas  Cottam,  who  seems  to  have  died  unmarried;  a  daughter  married  to 
Thomas  Golden,  of  Hardshaw  Hall;  and  Anne,  wife  of  Richard  Parkinson,  of 
Broughton,  son  of  Richard  Parkinson,  of  Leach  Hall  in  Woodplumpton,  by 
Anne,  dau.  of  John  Brockholes,  of  Claughton  Hall,  by  his  third  wife  Dorothy, 
dau.  of  Robert  White  of  Cross  House.  Lawrence  Cotham  died  at  Shifnal,  sine 
prole,  his  will  being  dated  Sept.  11,  1734,  and  proved  same  year,  his  execu- 
tors being  Richard  Parkinson  and  Elizabeth  Cotham.  Richard  Parkinson, 
who  died  at  Preston  in  1746,  had  two  sons,  Thomas  and  James,  who  were 
admitted  into  Douay  College  in  Sept.,  1729,  the  former  taking  the  alias  of 
Golden,  and  the  latter  that  of  Cottam.  Thomas  Parkinson  alias  Golden,  born 
July  27,  1 71 3,  after  his  ordination  at  Douay  served  the  missions  at  Blackbrook, 
the  seat  of  the  Orrells,  and  Hardshaw  Hall,  near  St  Helens,  and  was  killed  by  a 
heavy  stone  slate  falling  on  his  head,  March  7,  175 1,  and  was  buried  at  Windle- 
shaw.  His  brother,  James  Parkinson  alias  Cottam,  born  Jan.  24,  171 5-6,  after 
his  ordination  served  the  mission  at  Claughton,  where  he  died  Jan.  26,  1766. 
The  descent  of  the  Bannister  Hey  estate  and  the  various  families  who  have 
assumed  the  name  of  Cotham  has  been  traced  under  Golden  of  Winwick. 

2  William  Whittingham,  of  Westfield  in  Claughton,  died  in  1668.  In  his  will, 
dated  Oct.  14,  1662,  he  names  his  wife  Ellen,  sons  Thomas,  George  and  Mat- 
thew, and  a  daughter  Catherine.  He  was  probably  son  of  Richard  Whittingham, 
of  Claughton,  gent.,  who  held  Bayne  House,  and  whose  will  was  proved  in  1649. 
Richard  was  a  younger  son  of  Richard  Whittingham,  of  Whittingham  Hall,  by 
Anne,  dau.  of  Sir  Robert  Dolman, of  Pocklington,  and  his  wife  Eleanor,  dau.  of  Sir 
Wilham  Mallory,  of  Studley,  co.  York,  and  was  brother  to  Fathers  Adam  {alias 
Paul)  Whittingham,  S.J.,  born  in  1589,  and  William  Whittingham,  S.J.,  born 
1 590,  who  was  killed  in  the  terrible  accident  at  the  French  Ambassador's  house  in 
Blackfriars  in  1623.  Administration  to  the  will  of  Thomas  Whittingham,  son  of 
William,  was  granted  in  17 10,  and  he  appears  to  have  been  the  last  of  the 
family  connected  with  that  township.  The  Whittinghams  of  Whittingham 
Hall,  do  not  appear  in  the  roll  of  monthly  fines,  probably  owing  to  the  fact  of

two-thirds  of  their  estate  having  been  sequestrated  at  this  period,  for  they 
come  in  other  rolls.  Many  well-known  recusants  of  property  are  omitted  for  the 
same  reason.  The  family  returned  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of  1567,  161 3, 
and  1664,  and  came  to  an  end  in  the  person  of  Richard  Whittingham,  of  Whit- 
tingham  Hall,  who  sold  the  estate  shortly  before  his  death  in  1779.  His  aunt 
Bridget  married  George  Silvertop,  of  Minster  Acres,  co.  Northumberland,  and 
his  descendant  Francis  Somerled  Joseph  Silvertop,  of  Minster  Acres  and  Lar- 
tington  Hall,  now  represents  the  Whittingham  family. 

^  The  name  should  no  doubt  be  Freckleton. 

2  Robert  Male,  of  Claughton,  married  Jane,  dau.  of  Thomas  Brockholes,  of 
Claughton  Hall,  by  his  first  wife  Jennet,  dau.  of  Edward  Bradyll,  of  Portfield 
Hall,  and  administration  to  his  estate  was  granted  in  1680.  Another  of  the 
same  name  lived  in  Claughton  in  1689,  and  John  Maile,  of  Claughton,  and 
Richard  Maile,  of  Great  Singleton,  were  recusant  convicts  in  17 16,  the  latter 's 
will  being  proved  in  1728.  Male  is  the  pronunciation  of  Maghull,  and  it  is  proba- 
ble that  they  were  descended  from  the  ancient  recusant  family  of  that  name 
seated  at  Maghull  and  Aintree. 

^The  will  of  Anthony  Walker  was  proved  in  1667,  and  administration  to 
that  of  his  widow  Dorothy  in  1679. 

*The  Reeders  came  from  Forton  and  Cocker  ham,  where  they  were  tenants 
of  the  Abbey  in  145 1.  Edward  died  at  Cockerham  in  1670.  They  lost  the  Faith 
about  the  end  of  that  century. 

^  The  will  of  John  Tootell  was  proved  in  167 1 ,  and  that  of  his  wife  Elizabeth 
in  1676.  They  probably  descended  from  the  same  stock  as  the  Tootells  of 
Lower  Healey  Hall.  Christopher  Tootell,  of  Catterall,  was  a  recusant  1625-35, 
and  John  Tootell,  senior,  and  Christopher  Tootell,  of  Catterall,  refused  the  pro- 
testation oath  in  164 1-2. 

•Administration  to  his  estate  was  granted  in  1696.  The  family  held  the

manor  of  Bilsborrow  from  a  remote  century.  William  Cottam,  of  Bilsborrow,  temp . 
Hen,  VIII,  married  Constantia,  dau.  of  Christopher  Barton,  of  Barton  Hall,  by 
Margaret,  dau.  of  William  Singleton,  of  Broughton  Tower,  and  his  grandson 
and  namesake,  likewise  of  Bilsborrow,  married  Anne,  dau.  of  William  Hesketh,  of 
Maynes  Hall,  by  Anne,  dau.  of  Hugh  Anderton,  of  Euxton  Hall.  Oliver  Cottam, 
gent.,  of  Bilsborrow  was  a  recusant  as  early  as  1629;  and  William  appears  in 
1 63 1.  William  Cottam,  of  Bilsborrow,  and  his  son  and  heir  Oliver,  of  the  same, 
were  Catholic  non-jurors  in  171 7.  The  son  was  the  father  of  William,  who  died  in 
1773,  and  whose  dau.  Anne,  heiress  to  her  brothers,  married  in  1766  George 
Haydock,  of  The  Tagg,  Cottam,  and  was  mother  of  the  Rev.  James  Haydock, 
who  died  at  Lea  in  1809,  and  the  Rev.  George  Leo  Haydock,  the  Biblical  an- 
notator,  who  inherited  The  Tagg,  but  died  at  Penrith  in  1849,  aged  seventy-five. 

^The  Kirkhams  appear  in  the  rolls  from  1591,  but  are  too  num.erous  to 
identify,  and  especially  Henry,  as  it  was  a  favourite  name  with  the  family. 
Father  Henry  Kirkham,  S.J.,  born  in  1573,  and  ordained  at  Rome  in  1601,  was 
probably  the  son  of  Henry  Kirkham,  of  Larbreck,  who  died  in  1629.  The 
Jesuit  died  in  Lancashire  in  1646.  Another  member  of  the  family.  Father 
Richard  Kirkham  alias  Lathom,  S.J.,  born  in  1671,  died  in  1708.  Henry  Kirk- 
ham, senior,  son  of  his  namesake  of  the  text,  and  Henry,  junior,  his  son,  both  of 
Larbreck,  were  Catholic  non-jurors  in  17 18.  The  latter,  who  removed  to  Weeton, 
and  whose  will  was  proved  July  19,  1725,  by  Elizabeth  his  wife,  left  a  son,  John, 
of  Weeton,  will  proved  Feb.  15,  1727,  who  by  Elizabeth  his  wife  was  father  of 
George  Kirkham,  of  Poulton,  who  by  his  wife  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  George  Gillow, 
of  Singleton,  was  father  of  George  Kirkham,  born  July  18,  1765.  The  last 
entered  the  English  College  at  Rome  in  1776,  but  left  on  account  of  ill-health  in 
1783.  He  subsequently  married  and  was  father  of  Richard  Kirkham,  of  Lan- 
caster, who  died  at  Bombay,  April  27, 1836,  aged  thirty-two,  and  of  a  dau.  the 
wife  of  John  Whiteside  of  Lancaster. 

2  Osward  Whalley,  the  surname  being  locally  pronounced  O'Whoa,  subse- 
quently resided  at  Aldcliffe,  where  he  died  in  1693.  In  some  capacity,  perhaps  as 
steward,  he  served  Thomas  Stanley,  of  Great  Eccleston  Hall.  The  Stanleys  were 
all  staunch  recusants,  and  their  omission  from  this  list  can  only  be  accounted 
for  on  the  supposition  that  they  had  come  under  the  Act  of  29  Eliz.  Cap.  6,  by 
which  two-thirds  of  their  lands  and  leases  could  be  seized  in  default  of  the  ;^20 
per  month  fine  for  recusants  over  sixteen  years  of  age,  and  ;^io  per  month  for 
wives.  James  was  fond  of  feeding  his  hungry  followers  by  granting  them  the 
benefit  of  such  forfeitures,  which  were  enlarged  in  the  third  year  of  his  reign 
under  Cap.  4.  The  recusant,  however,  was  to  be  allowed  to  retain  his  mansion- 
house  with  the  third  share  of  his  property.  The  present  list  of  convictions  does 
not  seem  to  include  the  names  of  those  who  suffered  such  forfeiture  of  lands. 
The  first  Stanley  of  Great  Eccleston  Hall  was  Thomas  Stanley,  natural  son  of 
Henry  Stanley,  fourth  Earl  of  Derby,  who  married  Mary,  dau.  of  Robert 
Hesketh,  of  Rufford  Hall,  and  relict  of  Richard  Barton,  of  Barton  Hall.  He 
appears  annually  in  the  rolls  till  his  death  in  1638.  His  son  Richard,  also  a  re- 
cusant, married  Mary,  dau.  of  Lambert  Tyldesley,  of  Garrett  Hall  in  Tyldesley, 
and  sister  and  eventual  heiress  of  Thomas  Tyldesley.  Richard  died  shortly 
before  his  father,  and  his  son  Thomas,  named  in  the  text,  succeeded  his  mother 
and  his  grandfather  to  the  estates  of  Garrett  and  Great  Eccleston.  Thomas 
married  Frances,  dau.  of  Sir  Thomas  Tyldesley,  of  Morleys  Hall  and  Myerscough 
Lodge.  He  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  and  died  whilst  on  a 
visit  to  Dr  Kuerden,  the  eminent  antiquary,  at  Cuerden,  and  was  buried  at 
Leyland,  April  17,  1686.  He  was  succeeded  by  his  son  Richard,  born  in  1661,

time  of  the  birth  of  his  eldest  son  Thomas,  Feb.  8,  1683,  was  residing  at  Cul- 
cheth. His  second  son.  Father  Henry  Stanley  alias  Culcheth,  S.J.,  born  in  1688, 
served  the  mission  in  Liverpool,  1749,  and  for  a  year  or  two,  then  went  to  Leigh 
for  a  short  time,  and  finally  died  at  Culcheth  Hall  in  1753.  The  eldest  son, 
Thomas,  upon  the  death  of  his  father  in  17 14,  succeeded  to  the  estates,  and 
married  Meliora,  dau,  of  Thomas  Gomeldon,  of  Summerfield  Court,  co.  Kent, 
and  relict  of  James  Poole,  eldest  son  of  Sir  James  Poole,  of  Poole  Hall,  co. 
Chester,  Bart.  In  171 5  he  joined  the  Chevalier  de  St  George  at  Preston,  was 
convicted  of  high  treason,  and  his  estates  of  Great  Eccleston  Hall,  Garrett 
Hall,  and  New  Hall  in  the  parish  of  Leigh,  and  his  residence  in  Preston,  were 
forfeited  and  sold.  In  1732  he  was  living  at  Garrett  Hall,  and  subsequently  he 
inherited  Culcheth  Hall,  where  his  wife  died  in  June,  and  he  himself  in  July, 
1749.  His  only  dau.  and  heiress  married  William  Dicconson,  fourth  son  of 
Edward  Dicconson,  of  Wrightington  Hall. 

1  He  was  descended  from  the  Gradells  of  Barbies  Moor,  in  Ulnes  Walton.  He 
subsequently  removed  to  Out  Rawcliffe,  and  his  will  was  proved  in  1676,  and 
that  of  his  wife  in  1678.  Richard  Gradell,  of  Upper  Rawcliffe,  possibly  his  father, 
married  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Richard  Longworth,  of  Tarnacre  Hall.

1  The  will  of  Richard  Parkinson,  of  Leach  Hall,  in  Bartle  Quarter  of  Wood- 
plumpton,  now  called  Bartle  Hall,  was  proved  in  1677.  He  probably  belonged 
to  the  old  Catholic  family  of  Parkinson,  of  Fairsnape  Hall.  There  were  several 
priests  of  the  name  about  this  period,  but  it  is  difficult  to  identify  them.  Mr 
Parkinson's  son  and  namesake  and  his  sons,  the  Rev.  Thomas  Parkinson  alias 
Golden  and  James  Parkinson  alias  Cottam,  have  been  noticed  under  Laurence 
Cottam  of  Claughton. 

2  Butler  Cowbome  (Colborne,  Colburne,  Cowban,  Cowbron,  or  Cowlbron 
as  the  name  is  variously  spelt),  of  Freckleton  Hall,  married  Anne,  dau.  of  Ga- 
briel Hesketh,  of  White  Hill,  in  Goosnargh.  The  family  was  very  ancient.  An 
old  Marian  priest.  Sir  George  Cowburne,  formerly  of  Warley,  in  Yorkshire,  died 
at  Freckleton  in  Jan.,  1596-7.  John  Cowburne,  of  Freckleton,  died  in  or  about 
1587,  leaving  two  sisters  and  coheiresses,  Janet,  then  of  the  age  of  thirty-eight, 
wife  of  Richard  Butler,  and  Helen,  then  aged  thirty,  wife  of  Henry  Freckleton. 
Laurence  and  Henry  were  common  names  in  the  family.  The  Rev.  William 
Couborne  alias  Johnson,  born  161 1,  son  of  Henry Coubome,  of  Freckleton,  was 
ordained  priest  at  Rome  in  1636.  The  Rev.  John  Cowban  alias  Butler,  bom  in 
Sept.  1 701,  probably  son  of  Lawrence  Colborne,  of  Freckleton,  arrived  at 
Douay  College  from  St  Omer's  College,  Sept.  5,  1722,  and  was  ordained  priest 
March  27,  1728,  served  the  missions  at  Cottam,  Lady  well  in  Fernyhalgh, 
1737-44,  Eshe,  CO.  Durham,  Aug.,  1744,  till  Nov.,  1748,  and  finally  at  Crathome, 
where  he  died  Oct.  6,  1777.  His  relative,  Richard  Cowban,  was  the  priest  at 
Alston  Lane  from  181 3  till  his  death  in  1849. 

3  The  Bambers  of  the  Moor  in  Carleton  were  of  ancient  lineage.  They  appear 
annually  in  the  rolls  from  1 591.  Richard  Bamber,  of  The  Moor,  about  1630  paid 
£\o  as  composition  for  refusing  to  take  the  order  of  knighthood.  His  will  was

proved  in  1636.  He  had  several  sons,  Thomas,  died  in  1667;  John,  a  captain 
under  Sir  Thomas  Tyldesley  during  the  civil  wars,  who  had  a  son  Richard, 
named  in  his  grandfather's  will,  and  probably  the  one  of  the  text;  William, 
who  died  before  1636;  Richard;  and  Edward.  The  last  went  to  St  Alban's 
College  at  Valladolid,  where  in  the  diary  he  may  probably  be  identified  with 
Edward  Richardson,  who  was  admitted  in  1625,  and  adopted  the  alias  of 
Walsh.  If  so  he  was  ordained  priest,  and  left  the  College  for  Belgium  in  1628. 
He  then  passed  over  to  England,  but  was  arrested  at  Dover,  and  banished. 
Again  he  returned,  and  was  in  Lancashire  in  1 63 1 ,  but  after  a  time  was  rearrested 
in  the  neighbourhood  of  Standish,  and  was  committed  to  Lancaster  Castle,  but 
escaped  on  the  way,  and  sought  refuge  with  Mr  Singleton,  of  Broughton 
Tower.  Finally  he  was  apprehended  for  the  third  time,  when  he  was  using  the 
alias  of  Reding,  and  was  martyred  at  Lancaster,  Aug.  7,  1646,  The  Bambers 
continued  to  reside  at  The  Moor  till  the  time  of  John  Bamber,  who  removed  to 
Aughton,  and  was  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  171 7.  His  son,  Thomas  Bamber,  the 
last  of  the  family,  married  Catherine,  daughter  of  John  Trafford,  of  Croston 
Hall,  by  Catherine,  dau.  and  eventual  coheiress  of  Thomas  Culcheth,  of  Cul- 
cheth  Hall,  and  settled  at  Ormskirk,  where  he  made  his  will  April  23,  1737,  and 
died  sine  prole  shortly  afterwards.  He  had  two  sisters,  Anne,  the  wife  of  Mr 
Jump,  who  left  five  daughters,  Mary,  Margaret,  Anne,  Elizabeth,  and  Jane; 
and  Elizabeth,  the  wife  of  Robert  Brownbill,  of  Liverpool,  who  had  three  sons 
and  two  daughters,  Thomas,  who  inherited  The  Moor  estate  from  his  uncle, 
John,  Robert,  Elizabeth,  and  Mary.  The  three  brothers,  natives  of  Gillmoss,  in 
West  Derby,  near  Liverpool,  were  probably  of  this  family.  Father  Thomas 
Brownbill,  S.J.,  born  1788,  died  1844;  Father  Francis  Brownbill,  S.J.,  born 
1793,  died  1875,  and  Father  James  Brownbill,  S.J.,  born  1798,  died  1880.  Colo- 
nel Fishwick  gives  some  account  of  The  Moor,  with  pedigrees  of  the  Bambers,  in 
his  Hist,  of  PouUon-le-Fylde,  but  it  is  very  confused  and  of  little  value. 

^  There  were  two  branches  of  the  family  living  on  the  original  Bamber 
estate,  one  at  The  Moor,  or  the  Lower  Moor,  and  the  other  at  the  Higher  Moor, 
James  Bamber,  of  Higher  Moor,  a  staunch  recusant,  like  the  rest  of  the  family, 
by  Mary,  his  wife,  daughter  of  Roger  Sherburne,  of  Wolfhouse,  by  Elizabeth, 
dau.  and  coheiress  of  William  Haydock,  of  Cottam  Hall,  died  in  161 7,  and  was 
succeeded  by  his  eldest  son  William  Bamber,  of  Higher  Moor,  who  died  in  1662, 
leaving  a  son  and  successor,  Richard  Bamber,  of  Higher  Moor,  the  gentleman 
named  in  the  text.  The  latter,  baptized  at  Poulton,  March  7,  1630-1,  married 
Anne,  dau.  of  Thomas  Singleton,  of  Staining  Hall,  by  Cicely,  dau.  of  William 
Gerard,  of  Ince  Hall.  His  wife  died  in  1660,  and  he  himself  was  buried  at 
Poulton,  June  6,  1671. 

^TheWhitesides  were  old  recusants  in  this  and  the  adjoining  township  of 
Marton.  Gilbert  Whiteside,  of  Marton,  married  in  1685  Mary,  dau.  of  Richard 
Leckonby,  of  Leckonby  House,  Great  Eccleston,  and  his  son,  James,  by  his 
wife  Mary,  dau.  of  Peter  Bradshaw,  of  Normoss,  was  father  of  John  Whiteside 
of  Marton,  who  married  Alice,  dau.  of  Richard  Gillow,  of  Singleton.  John's  son 
and  namesake  settled  at  Lancaster,  and  died  at  Dolphin  Lee  in  181 1,  aged 
sixty-eight.  The  younger  John  had  two  sons,  John  and  James,  and  one  dau., 
Margaret,  wife  of  William  Leeming,  of  Ridge,  near  Lancaster,  who  was  the 
mother  of  the  late  Richard  Leeming,  of  Greaves  House,  Lancaster,  and  Lent- 
worth  Hall  in  Over  Wyresdale.  John  Whiteside,  who  died  in  1856,  aged  sixty- 
two,  married  his  cousin,  a  dau.  of  George  Kirkham,  of  Poulton,  by  Elizabeth, 
dau.  of  George  Gillow,  of  Singleton,  and  James  Whiteside,  the  banker  in 
Lancaster,  married  his  cousin  Margaret,  dau.  of  Henry  Whiteside,  of  London, 
by  his  first  wife  Jane,  dau.  of  James  Corney,  of  Lancaster  (son  of  Henry  Corney 
or  Cornerow,  of  Cornerow  and  Rosaker,  by  Jane,  dau.  of  Robert  Worswick,  of

at  Princethorpe. 

^The  name  is  variously  spelt  Cossey,  Cossney,  Cossen,  Cossnoe,  Coseney,  and 
finally  Cosney.  Thomas  Cossney,  of  Grimsargh  (adjoining  Ribbleton)  in  1602 
had  issue — Thomas,  of  Grimsargh,  recusant  with  Margaret  his  wife  in  1600; 
Ralph,  of  Grimsargh,  who  had  issue  Thomas,  father  of  John,  living  in  1682, 
George,  of  Grimsargh,  father  of  Thomas,  in  1682,  Ralph,  of  Grimsargh,  in  1662, 
and  of  Fulwood  in  1682;  John,  deceased  in  1622,  when  his  son  John  was  living; 
Richard,  father  of  Thomas  and  George ;  and  George,  who  went  to  London,  and 
was  deceased  in  1662,  when  his  sons  George  and  John  were  present  at  the 
Preston  Guild.  Thomas,  the  eldest  son,  had  sons  John  and  Thomas,  the  latter 
perhaps  being  the  one  of  his  name,  a  recusant  in  Grimsargh,  with  Isabel  his 
wife,  in  1605,  seq.,  and  variously  denominated  yeoman,  husbandman,  and 
gentleman.  Another  Thomas,  of  Grimsargh,  appears  in  the  rolls  between 
6  Jac.I,  and  7  Car.  I  (163 1-2),  with  Anne  his  wife.  Thomas,  the  son  of  Thomas, 
had  issue,  John,  senior,  of  Grimsargh  in  1682,  father  of  Thomas;  Thomas,  of 
Ribbleton,  a  recusant  in  1679,  whose  will  (then  of  Grimsargh)  was  proved  in 
1683;  and  George,  of  Grimsargh,  in  1682,  father  of  John,  junior,  and  Thomas. 
The  will  of  Alice  Cosney,  of  Grimsargh,  possibly  the  one  named  in  the  text,  was 
proved  in  17 10.  Thomas  Cosney,  of  Fulwood,  registered  property  in  Grimsargh 
as  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717,  as  did  likewise  John  Coseney,  of  Grimsargh,  who 
married  Dorothy,  daughter  of  Henry  ffinch,  of  Mawdesley,  by  Jane,  dau.  and 
heiress  of  John  Cooper,  and  died  in  or  about  1732. 

2  This  is  clearly  an  error  for  Anthony  Windle,  administration  to  whose 
estate  at  Stalmine  was  granted  in  1680.  The  will  of  Francis  Windle,  of  Melling 
House,  was  proved  in  1736. 

^Administration  to  his  will  was  granted  in  1690.  The  family  appears  in  the 
rolls  from  1591.  George  Waring,  of  Gotfield  in  Whittingham,  chapelry  of  Goos- 
nargh,  and  his  wife  Jennet,  were  recusants  in  161 3-4.  Their  son  George  married 
Elizabeth,  dau.  of  John  Singleton,  of  Dilworth,  and  his  son  Edward  married 
Margaret,  dau.  and  coheiress  of  John  Harrison,  of  Lea,  and  had  several  daughters, 
of  whom  Ann  was  the  wife  of  Mr  Holland,  and  Martha  of  Thomas  Crook. 

*The  Helme  family  has  been  referred  to  under  Lea,  Isabel  Helme  (or 
Holme),  named  in  the  text,  may  have  been  the  widow  of  Thomas  Helme,  of 
Church  House,  in  Goosnargh,  to  whose  estate  she  administered  in  1662.  She 
was  dau.  of  William  Hoghton,  of  Grimsargh  Hall,  and  relict  of  Robert  Sher- 
burne, of  Wolfhouse.  Her  mother  was  Grace,  natural  dau.  of  Sir  Richard 
Sherburne,  of  Stonyhurst,  by  Isabel  Wood.  Thomas  Helme,  born  in  1575,  was 
son  and  heir  of  Leonard  Helme,  of  Church  House  (whose  inquis.  post  mortem 
was  taken  in  1601),  by  Isabel,  dau.  of  Edmund  Parker,  of  Browsholme  Hall,  co. 
York,  and  Leonard  was  the  son  of  Thomas  Helme,  by  one  of  the  daughters 
and  coheiresses  of  Mr  Riding  of  Riding.  Leonard's  younger  son,  William,

married  Frances,  dau.  of  William  Davenport,  of  Woodford,  co.  Chester,  and  his 

son  Thomas  may  possibly  be  the  one  appearing  in  the  text.  The  family  held  the 

manor   of   Chipping,  and  also  an  estate  in  English  Lea.  Thomas  Helme,  the 

husband  of  Isabel  of  the  text,  in  1642  had  sons  Leonard,  William,  John,  and 

Thomas,  besides  several  daughters. 

1  James  Simpson's  will  was  proved  in  1 707.  Of  this  family  were  Dom  Thomas 
Simpson,  O.S.B.,  professed  at  Dieulward  in  1737,  died  in  1764,  and  Dom  John 
Benedict  Simpson  alias  Daniel,  O.S.B.,  professed  at  Dieulward  in  1743,  died 
1775,  whose  mother  was  a  Daniel,  of  Whittingham.  Another  branch  of  the  family 
settled  at  Preston.  Dom  John  Cuthbert  Simpson,  O.S.B.,  son  of  Richard 
Simpson,  of  Preston,  and  his  wife  Mary,  dau.  of  Richard  Withington,  of  Ribble- 
ton,  who  was  outlawed  and  suffered  forfeiture  of  his  estate  in  17 16,  on  account 
of  the  Jacobite  rising,  was  born  in  1724,  and  was  sent  to  Douay  to  study  for  the 
Church,  but  left  to  join  the  Benedictines  at  Paris,  Sept.  16,  1745,  where  he  was 
professed  in  1746,  and  died  at  Bath  in  1785.  His  brother  Dom  Richard  Bene- 
dict Simpson,  O.S.B.,  was  professed  at  Dieulward  in  1753,  and  died  in  1801. 
Their  sister  became  a  Blue  Nun  at  Paris,  where  she  was  professed  in  her 
twenty-fifth  year  in  1770. 

*The  Keighleys  of  White  Lee,  in  Goosnargh,  were  descended  from  the 
Keighleys  of  Keighley,  co.  York,  and  Inskip  Hall,  co.  Lancaster,  which  ended 
in  the  male  line  with  Henry  Keighley,  who,  by  Mary,  dau.  of  Sir  Thomas  Carus, 
Justice  of  the  Queen's  Bench,  left  in  1567,  three  daughters  and  coheiresses, 
Anne,  wife  of  Sir  William  Cavendish,  of  Hardwick  Hall,  co.  Derby,  first  Earl 
of  Devonshire,  ancestor  of  the  present  Duke,  Catherine,  wife  of  Thomas 
Worsley,  of  Booths  Hall,  and  another  daughter  who  o.s.p.,  the  wife  of  Robert 
Charnock  of  Chamock  Richard  and  Astley  Hall.  The  Inskip,  Great  Eccleston, 
and  other  estates  are  still  in  the  possession  of  the  Devonshire  family.  The 
Keighleys  of  White  Lee  also  had  estates  in  Whittingham,  Claughton,  Charnock 
Richard,  and  other  townships.  Robert  Keighley,  of  White  Lee,  and  Anne,  his 
wife  were  recusants  temp.  Elizabeth.  His  half-brother  Hugh  was  a  recusant 
living  at  Bilsborrow  in  1603,  and  died  in  that  year,  and  his  son  John  inherited 
White  Lee  from  his  uncle  Robert  about  the  same  time.  John's  son  Hugh 
married  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Nathaniel  Banastre,  of  Altham  Hall,  and  relict  of 
Thomas  Richardson,  of  Myerscough,  and  was  succeeded  by  his  son  Nathaniel 
Kighley,  as  the  name  was  latterly  spelt.  Nathaniel,  who  lived  at  Myerscough, 
died  in  or  about  1691,  when  administration  of  his  estate  was  granted.  Jennet 
Kighley,  of  the  text,  was  probably  his  sister  or  near  relative.  Nathaniel's 
eldest  son  Hugh,  born  in  1665,  married  and  had  issue  a  son  Hugh,  and  other 
children,  got  into  difficulties,  and  sold  White  Lee,  Harwood  House  in  Goos- 
nargh, and  Claughton  House,  in  1694.  He  went  to  London,  and  was  residing  in 
Holbom  in  1727.  Hugh's  brother  John,  of  Gray's  Inn,  also  had  a  son  Hugh 
Basil  Keighley,  who  was  a  surgeon  in  Holborn  in  1726.  In  171 3  was  proved  the 
will  of  Richard  Keighley,  of  Whittingham.  The  Keighleys  were  recusants,  and 
at  the  south  end  of  the  mansion  of  White  Lee  was  formerly  a  small  chapel.

^The  fifishwicks  were  in  Goosnargh  and  Whittingham  much  earlier  than 
Col.  Henry  Fishwick  was  aware  when  he  wrote  his  Hist,  of  Goosnargh.  Henry 
ffishwick,  of  Goosnargh,  was  a  recusant  from  the  commencement  of  the  rolls  in 
1 591  till  his  death  about  1619.  His  son  Richard,  who  lived  in  Whittingham, 
married  Margaret,  dau.  of  Richard  Snape,  and  appears  regularly  in  the  rolls. 
He  had  issue,  Henry,  probably  the  one  named  in  the  text,  John  of  Goosnargh, 
a  recusant  in  1626-7,  who  had  a  son  and  namesake  also  a  recusant,  and  James, 
who  became  steward  to  Charles  Walmesley,  of  Stainer  Hall,  near  Selby,  co. 
York,  son  of  Thomas  Walmesley,  of  Dunkenhalgh,  and  was  buried  in  Selby 
Church,  March  9,  1650,  and  his  wife  Alice,  Feb.  17,  1688.  James  ffishwick 
purchased  Bulsnape  Manor  in  Goosnargh,  in  1649,  and  was  succeeded  by  his  son 
Charles,  named  after  his  patron  Charles  Walmesley,  and  it  was  about  this  time 
that  the  family  lost  the  Faith.  There  were  many  other  members  of  the  family 
in  the  rolls. 

*The  Daniels  of  Whittingham,  in  Goosnargh,  and  of  the  adjoining  hamlet  of 
Durton,  in  Broughton,  were  an  ancient  Catholic  family,  and  supplied  many 
priests,  secular  and  Benedictine,  to  the  Church.  John  Daniel,  of  Whittingham 
and  Durton,  was  tried  for  high  treason  at  Preston,  in  Sept.,  17 16,  after  the 
Jacobite  rising  of  171 5,  but  was  acquitted.  As  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  17 17  he 
returned  a  freehold  estate  of  fifty-six  acres  in  Durton,  and  his  will  was  proved 
in  1720.  Thomas  Daniel,  a  priest,  was  serving  in  Lancashire  in  1631,  probably 
a  brother  of  the  John  of  the  text.Three  of  John  Daniel's  sons  were  secular  priests, 
Edward,  born  in  1709,  who  used  the  alias  of  Bennet,  was  ordained  priest  at 
Douay,  May  30,  1733,  and  left  for  the  mission  July  18,  1735,  became  chaplain 
to  the  Molyneux  family  at  The  Wood  and  Mosborough  Hall,  then  went  to  serve 
Garstang  and  Wyresdale,  and  eventually  died  at  York  in  1765;  Thomas,  born 
17 14,  ordained  priest  at  Douay  in  1739,  left  for  England  Aug.  5,  1740,  and  died 
at  York  in  1770;  and  William,  born  171 3,  was  ordained  priest  at  Douay,  Dec. 
23,  1 74 1,  stayed  in  the  College  as  a  professor  till  July  i,  1748,  when  he  left  for 
Paris  to  be  chaplain  to  the  Blue  Nuns,  where  he  died  Feb.  9,  1761,  aged  47. 
Thomas  Daniel,  of  Whittingham,  son  of  John  Daniel  of  the  same,  was  a  Catholic 
non-juror  in  171 7,  and  was  probably  brother  to  John  above.  He  was,  perhaps, 
father  of  Dom  Robert  Daniel,  O.S.B.,  born  at  Whittingham,  who  was  professed 
at  Dieulward  in  1735,  and  died  in  1781.  Another  brother,  Edward,  of  Crook 
House,  in  Durton,  who  died  in  1706,  by  his  wife  Grace  (died  17 12),  dau.  of 
Henry  Carter,  of  Durton  (died  1704),  was  father  of  Richard  Daniel,  who  was 
ordained  priest  at  Rome  in  17 10,  left  the  College  to  become  confessor  to  the  Car- 
melite nuns  at  Antwerp  in  17 12,  subsequently  removed  to  the  Benedictine

chaplain  in  1723,  and  died  in  1753.  Edward's  brother  Thomas,  of  Durton,  was 
a  Catholic  non- juror  in  17 17,  as  Hkewise  Edward  Daniel  of  Catterall,  who 
registered  a  freehold  in  Broughton,  in  which  his  wife,  Elizabeth,  and  his  sisters 
Elizabeth  and  Dorothy  Daniel  were  interested,  and  also  his  freehold  residence 
called  Brighouse  House  in  Catterall.  John  Daniel,  born  in  1745,  the  last  presi- 
dent of  Douay  College,  and  Edward  Daniel,  born  1749,  at  one  time  professor 
there,  were  sons  of  Edward  Daniel,  of  Durton,  by  Mary,  dau.  of  William 
Penswick.  The  former's  history  is  well  known ;  the  latter,  Edward,  who  became 
a  senior  professor  in  1778,  left  in  Dec.  1778  for  the  mission,  and  was  placed  at 
Croston  Hall  in  1779  till  1792.  He  then  became  chaplain  to  the  Gerards  at 
Garswood,  where  he  died  in  18 19.  Their  nephew  John  Daniel,  born  1755,  was 
educated  at  Rome  and  Douay,  at  the  latter  of  which  he  was  ordained  priest  in 
1780,  and  left  for  the  mission  Feb.  5,  1781,  and  died  at  Stockton-upon-Tees 
in  1802. 

1  Gervase  Clifton,  of  Warton  Lodge,  was  son  of  John  Clifton,  of  Stalmine 
Grange,  and  grandson  of  Gervase  Clifton,  of  Much  Plumpton  (will  proved  1638), 
younger  son  of  Cuthbert  Clifton,  of  Westby  Hall,  by  Catherine,  dau.  of  Sir 
Richard  Hoghton,  of  Hoghton  Tower.  His  younger  brothers  were  Cuthbert, 
Peter,  John  and  William,  and  he  had  sons  John,  (deceased  in  1682,  who  had 
sons  Thomas  and  John),  Richard  and  James,  both  living  in  1682,  Gervase's 
grandmother's  name  was  Isabel,  and  her  husband,  the  elder  Gervase,  was 
own  cousin  to  Dom  Lambert  Clifton,  O.S.B.,  son  of  William  Clifton,  of  Ballam, 
younger  son  of  Thomas  Clifton,  of  Westby  Hall,  by  his  first  wife  Ellen,  dau. 
of  Sir  Alexander  Osbaldeston,  of  Osbaldeston  Hall.  Dom  Lambert  was  pro- 
fessed in  Spain,  and  was  living  in  Lancashire  in  163 1 . 

'Administration  to  her  estate  was  granted  in  1668,  and  to  that  of  Thomas 
Abraham  in  1672.  The  will  of  her  son  William  was  proved  in  1670.  The  family 
constantly  appears  in  the  rolls. 

^Thurstan  Whalley 's  will  was  proved  in  1668.  Richard  Whalley  was  still  on 
the  rolls  in  1679-80.  Thomas  Whalley,  son  of  Richard  and  Jane,  was  ordained 
priest  at  Rome,  where  he  used  the  alias  of  Porter,  in  1701,  and  left  the  College 
Oct.  2,  1702.  He  remained  in  Rome  for  half  a  year,  and  then  left  for  England 
with  Bishop  George  Witham,  who  had  just  been  appointed  to  the  Midland 
District,  and  was  placed  somewhere  in  Rutlandshire.  At  an  earlier  date  one 
Thomas  Whalley,  of  Lancashire,  was  admitted  into  St  Alban's  College  at 
Valladolid,  June  20,  1592,  and  was  sent  to  that  at  Seville,  Jan.  12,  1593,  where 
he  was  ordained  priest,  and  thence  came  to  the  mission.  Besides  the  priest, 
Richard  Whalley  had  an  elder  son,  Thurstan,  who  succeeded  him  to  his  freehold 
estate  at  Warton,  which  had  been  entailed  by  his  grandfather,  the  Thurstan 
of  the  text.  The  younger  Thurstan  registered  this  estate  as  a  Catholic  non- 
juror in  1 7 17.  He  was  probably  the  father  of  James  Whalley,  bom  May  27, 
1710,  who  entered  Douay  College,  Aug.  7,  1727,  but  left  it  in  poetry.  May  27, 
1732,  to  recuperate  his  health  in  England,  and  does  not  seem  to  have  returned. 
Father  Alexius  Whalley,  O.S.F.,  who  died  at  Osmotherley,  July  21,  181 1,  aged 
about  seventy-two,  was  probably  a  grandson  of  Thurstan,  the  non-juror.

^Sir  Thomas  Clifton,  born  July  7,  1628,  was  the  second  son  of  Thomas 
Clifton,  of  Westby  Hall,  who  recovered  Clifton  through  his  wife  Anne,  dau.  and 
eventual  sole  heiress  of  Sir  Cuthbert  Halsall,  of  Halsall  Hall  and  Clifton  Hall, 
whose  grandfather  Henry  Halsall,  acquired  Clifton  through  his  marriage  with 
Anne,  sister  and  heiress  of  Thomas  Molyneux,  of  Clifton  Hall,  and  dau.  of  Sir 
William  Molyneux,  of  Sefton  Hall,  who  had  obtained  Clifton  in  right  of  his 
wife,  Elizabeth,  dau,  and  heiress  of  Cuthbert  Clifton,  of  Clifton  Hall.  Sir 
Thomas  Clifton  was  created  a  baronet  March  4,  1 660-1.  He  succeeded  his  elder 
brother  Cuthbert,  a  colonel  in  the  Royal  army,  who  was  slain  at  the  siege  of 
Manchester  in  Oct.  1642.  In  the  previous  year  the  colonel  had  married  Margaret, 
dau.  and  heiress  of  George  Ireland,  of  Southworth  Hall,  but  left  no  issue.  His 
widow  married  secondly  Pennington  Whalley,  Esq.  Sir  Thomas  married  (i) 
Bridget,  dau.  of  Sir  George  Heneage,  of  Hainton  Hall,  co.  Lincoln,  by  whom  he 
had  four  sons  and  four  daughters,  the  only  one  to  marry  being  Mary,  wife  of 
Thomas,  sixth  Lord  Petre,  and  (2)  Bridget,  dau.  of  Sir  Edward  Hussey, 
of  Hunnington  Hall,  co.  Lincoln,  by  whom  he  had  a  son  Thomas,  who  pre- 
deceased him  in  1688,  and  a  daughter  Bridget,  wife  of  Sir  Francis  Andrews,  of 
Denton  Hall,  co.  Northampton,  Bart.  On  July  17,  1694,  Sir  Thomas  was 
arrested  at  Wrea  Green  by  one  of  the  King's  messengers,  and  guarded  by 
Dutch  troopers  was  carried  to  his  own  place,  Lytham  Hall,  for  the  night.  He 
was  then  sent  to  the  Tower  of  London  on  a  trumped  up  charge  of  high  treason, 
and  finally  sent  doAvn  to  Manchester  to  be  tried  for  his  life,  with  a  number  of 
other  Catholic  gentlemen.  The  trial  took  place  in  the  following  October,  but 
though  Sir  Thomas  was  acquitted,  he  was  unable  to  stand  the  strain,  and  he 
died  probably  at  the  seat  of  Sir  William  Gerard,  one  of  his  fellow  prisoners,  and 
was  buried  with  his  ancestors  at  Kirkham,  Nov.  13,  1694.  The  Rev.  Richard 
Jameson  preached  the  funeral  oration,  which  is  worthy  of  publication.  The 
Clifton  estates  then  passed  to  his  nephew  John  Clifton,  but  the  baronetcy 
expired.  The  Cliftons  were  staunch  recusants,  and  a  great  many  of  the  ladies 
became  nuns.  They  abandoned  the  Faith  for  a  couple  of  generations  during  the 
last  century,  but  the  present  squire,  like  his  grandfather,  has  returned  to  their 
ancient  allegiance. 

2  Roger  and  James  Charnley  were  recusants  in  1679.  A  grandson  of  the 
former,  Roger  Charnley,  of  Lytham,  was  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  17 17,  and  his 
will  was  proved  at  Lancaster  April  11,  1727,  his  executors  being  Peter  Charnley 
and  Richard  Warbreck.  The  will  of  Margaret  Charnley,  of  Lytham,  widow,  was 
proved  by  Peter  Charnley,  her  son,  March  9,  1727,  and  that  of  Roger  Charnley, 
of  Catforth  in  Woodplumpton,  by  Ellen  Charnley,  wjdow,  Oct.  22,  1730,

1  Probably  an  error  for  Ricardus  Gillow. 

"John  Crookall's  will  was  proved  in  1670,  and  that  of  Ellen  in  1680.  The 
name  appears  annually  in  the  rolls.  Mary  Crookall  married  Thomas  Barrow,  of 
Westby,  and  was  mother  of  John  Barrow,  who  from  the  Jesuit  College  at 
Bruges  went  to  Douay,  Dec.  10,  1768,  and  during  the  scholastic  year,  Oct., 
1773  and  '74,  was  sent  to  St  Omer's  College  to  teach,  whence  he  returned  a 
priest  on  Oct.  17,  1776,  and  left  for  the  English  mission  Jan.  7,  1777.  He  was 
placed  at  Hazelwood  Castle,  co.  York,  till  1780.  He  was  also  at  Ness  Hall, 
Clintz  Hall,  and  Frickley  Hall,  and  in  1789  went  to  Garstang,  which  he  served, 
with  an  interval  between  1796-1800,  till  death  in  Dec,  181 1,  aged  sixty.  Jane, 
daughter  of  Ralph  Crookall,  married  George  Gillow,  of  Moor  House,  Newton-le- 
Scales,  who  died  in  1808,  and  was  mother  of  the  Rew.  Richard  and  Henry 
Gillow,  who  died  respectively  in  1867  and  1849.  And  John  Crookall,  of  Turnover 
Hall  and  Larkham,  married  Anne,  daughter  of  John  Gillow,  of  Salwick  Hall, 
and  was  father  of  John  Crookall,  of  Fleetwood,  J. P.,  and  by  a  second  wife,  of 
Rev.  Thomas  Crookall. 

^The  Fairs  were  recusants  on  the  Clifton  estate  from  the  earliest  period. 
Latterly  they  spelt  the  name  Fayer.  The  Rev.  William  Fayer,  third  son  of 
William  Fayer,  of  Westby,  and  his  wife  Mary  Hodgson,  born  Dec.  4,  18 14, 
was  ordained  priest  at  Ushaw,  Dec.  4,  1840,  and  served  Samlesbury  from 
1847  till  1875,  when  he  retired  to  Kirkham,  where  he  died  Sept.  17,  1883.

1  His  will  was  proved  in  1686.  His  son  and  namesake,  also  of  Lytham.was 
a  Catholic  non- juror  in  1717,  and  his  will  was  proved  in  1738.  The  latter  was 
probably  brother  to  Andrew  Snape,  of  Moorhead,  in  Upper  Wyresdale,  whose 
will  was  proved  in  171 5,  and  whose  widow  Margaret  was  a  Catholic  non- juror 
in  1717. 

2  The  will  of  Cuthbert  Richardson  of  Tarnacre  in  Upper  Rawchffe,  was 
proved  in  1667. 

3  The  Whites  of  Cross  House  in  Great  Eccleston,  formerly  considered  to  be 
in  Tarnacre,  were  settled  here  as  early  as  1332.  They  appear  in  the  recusant 
rolls  from  their  commencement  in  1591.  Robert  White,  of  Cross  House,  married 
Isabel,  daughter  of  Wilham  Kirkby,  of  Up  Rawcliffe  Hall,  and  both  were 
recusants  between  1609  and  1635.  He  compounded  for  knighthood  in  1632. 
Their  daughter,  Dorothy,  married  John  Brockholes,  of  Claughton  Hall,  and  their 
son  Nicholas  White  married  Elizabeth,  daughter  of  Thomas  ffyfe,  of  Wedacre 
Hall,  and  predeceased  his  father  in  1639.  Grismond  White,  of  the  text,  was 
possibly  another  daughter  of  Robert.  John  White,  of  Great  Eccleston,  son  of 
Nicholas,  married  Esther,  daughter  of  Richard  Leckonby,  of  Leckonby  House, 
Great  Eccleston,  and  of  the  Demesne  of  Elswick,  now  called  Elswick  Lodge,  and 
had  a  son  John,  who  married  Alice  Southworth,  possibly  the  daughter  of 
Thomas  Southworth,  of  Highfield,  in  the  parish  of  Lancaster,  descended  from 
the  ancient  family  seated  at  Samlesbury  Hall.  They  had  two  sons  priests — 
Luke  White  alias  Leckonby,  born  Oct.  17,  1708,  ordained  priest  at  Rome  in 
1 73 1,  and  died  at  Alston,  where  he  had  been  for  many  years,  in  July,  1765; 
and  John  White  alias  Leckonby,  born  May  18,  17 10,  ordained  at  Rome 
March  21.  1733,  and  left  for  Douay  College  on  Sept.  23,  1734,  thence  left  for  the 
mission  June  14,  1735,  lived  with  Mr  Markham  in  Yorkshire  for  many  years, 
and  thence,  before  1752,  removed  to  Euxton  Hall,  the  seat  of  the  Andertons, 
where  he  died  Feb.  7,  1778.  It  is  probable  that  Nicholas  White  had  an  elder 
brother  Thomas,  of  Cross  House,  whose  grandson  Thomas  White  was  baptized 
July  18,  1 7 10.  He  is  said  to  have  kept  a  pack  of  hounds,  and  to  have  involved

the  estate  in  debt.  His  will  was  dated  May  28,  1770,  and  after  his  decease  his 
property  went  to  John  White,  of  Great  Eccleston.  The  latter  was  apparently 
the  father  of  Nicholas  White,  of  Orotava,  in  Teneriffe,  who  married  by  proxy 
at  Leyburn,  Nov.  11,  1766,  Barbara,  daughter  and  coheiress  of  Roger  Strick- 
land, of  Catterick,  by  Catherine,  daughter  of  Simon  Scroop,  of  Danby  Hall. 
John  White,  a  younger  brother  of  Nicholas,  born  in  Feb.,  1744,  studied  at 
Femyhalgh,  under  Dame  Alice,  and  thence  went  to  one  of  the  Jesuit  colleges 
and  entered  the  Society  in  1768,  and  died  at  Hammersmith  in  1771.  The  estate 
was  sold  early  in  the  last  century,  and  Cross  House  is  now  a  farmhouse.  The 
occasional  apparition  of  the  "White  Lady"  at  a  small  window,  looking  out  of  the 
attics  into  the  garden,  is  still  believed  in  by  the  country  people,  and  strange  and 
unaccountable  noises  are  said  to  be  frequently  heard. 

1  Thomas  Blackburne,  second  son  of  John  Blackburne,  of  Stockenbridge 
Hall,  died  Aug.  9,  1667,  and  was  buried  at  St  Michael's,  where  a  stone  com- 
memorates his  memory.  He  does  not  appear  to  have  left  issue. 

2  The  Catons  of  this  and  neighbouring  townships  were  strong  recusants,  and 
several  of  them  became  priests.  William  Caton,  son  of  Thomas  and  his  wife 
Ellen,  admitted  into  the  College  at  Rome  in  1694,  aged  nineteen,  was  ordained 
in  1699,  left  for  Paris  in  1701,  and  was  placed  at  Great  Eccleston,  where  he 
passed  his  missionary  career  till  his  death  in  1749.  His  name  appears  in  the 
tahella  missarum  at  Scorton  under  Feb.  12.  Thomas  Caton,  born  in  1756,  son  of 
John  Caton,  of  Broughton,  and  his  wife,  Anne  Gregson,  was  ordained  at  Lisbon, 
and  died  at  Cottam  in  1826.  His  sister.  Sister  Anne  Scholastica  Caton,  O.S.B., 
of  Cambray,  born  in  1749,  died  in  1830.  William,  born  in  London  in  1782,  and 
son  of  Robert  Caton,  of  Lancashire,  and  his  wife  Mary  Thornborough,  went  to 
Sedgley  Park  School,  and  thence  to  Lisbon  with  the  intention  of  becoming  a 
priest,  but  left  before  taking  orders.  Laurence  Caton,  of  Claughton,  was  a 
Catholic  non- juror  in  1 7 1 7,  and  registered  an  estate  in  the  parish  of  St  Michael's. 

^  This  family  of  Southworth  (or  Southert  as  the  name  was  pronounced)  was 
descended  from  the  South  worths  of  Samlesbury  Hall. 

^Richard  Blackburne, of  Stockenbridge  Hall  in  Tarnacre.and  of  Scorton  Hall 
in  Wyresdale,  w^as  the  senior  representative  of  this  ancient  Catholic  family, 
which  appears  annually  in  the  rolls  from  1591.  The  family  derived  from  John 
Blackburne,  of  Sandholme  Milne  in  Barnacre,  who  was  a  recusant  with  his  wife 
Marie  in  1591.  He  had  two  sons,  William  and  Richard.  The  latter  purchased 
Newton  from  Sir  Richard  fifleetwood,  of  Calwich,  co.  Stafford.  The  elder  brother 
married  Elizabeth,  daughter  of  William  Kitchin,  of  Forton,  and  was  aunt  of 
Barnaby  Kitchin,  of  Pilling,  lord  of  the  manor  of  North  Meols.  William  resided 
at  Great  Eccleston  and  Thistleton,  and  had  four  sons — John,  of  Great  Eccleston, 
whose  descendants  if  he  had  any  died  out;  Richard,  of  Scorton  Hall,  who  some- 
times resided  at  Thistleton  and  Newton,  and  died  in  1641 ;  William,  ancestor 
of  the  two  families  of  Bridge  End  and  Blackley  Hurst,  the  latter  ending  in 
the  heiress,  Sophia  Gildard,  wife  of  the  Hon.  Richard  Jones,  brother  to  Lord 
Ranelagh;   and   Thomas,   who  settled  in   Cheshire.    Richard   married   Jane,

years  at  St  Omer's  College) ,  and  assumed  the  alias  of  John  Carey,  was  ordained  in 
1661 ,  left  for  England  in  Jan.,  1663,  and  served  the  mission  in  his  native  locality, 
perhaps  at  Stockenbridge  (where  the  Rev.  John  Sefton  baptized  his  cousm  John 
in  1654),  or  at  Claughton  Hall,  the  scat  of  the  Brockholes  family,  where  about 
1 700,  with  his  nephew  and  successor,  the  Rev.  Richard  Taylor  alias  Sherburne, 
he  purchased  the  site  of  the  present  independent  mission  at  Claughton,  and  died 
there,  rural  dean  of  Amoundemess,  in  Sept.,  1709.  Richard,  the  eldest  son  and 
heir,  made  his  will  Sept.  10,  1686,  and  was  buried  at  St  Michael's  Aug.  16,  1687, 
leaving  two  sons — John,  of  Stockenbridge  Hall  and  Fylde  Plumpton,  whose 
\vill  was  proved  in  1736,  and  Thomas.  John  had  issue — Richard,  of  Stocken-

Elizabeth,  his  wife,  was  proved  in  the  same  year,  and  that  of  Thomas,  their 

son,  in  1703.  Thomas  lived  at  Chapel  Houses  in  Clifton,  and  his  son  James,  of  ^ 

Thistleton,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1743,  was  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  1717. 

Robert  Horsecar,  of  Clifton,  was  also  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  17 17,  and  his 

will  was  proved  Nov.  6, 1727.  His  dau  Alice  married  George  Gillow,  of  Singleton. 

^  Anne,  wife  of  James  Clifton,  of  Ward's  House,  in  Salwick,  was  one  of  the 
Brents,  of  Larkstoke,  co.  Gloucester,  a  notable  and  wealthy  Catholic  family. 
Her  husband  was  at  this  time  in  Maryland,  but  he  appears  to  have  returned 
before  1679,  in  which  year  he  was  living  a  recusant  at  Ward's  House.  He  was 
the  fifth  son  of  Thomas  Clifton,  of  Clifton  Hall,  Salwick  Hall,  and  Westby  Hall, 
and  younger  brother  of  Sir  Thomas  Clifton,  Bart.  He  had  four  sons  and  three 
daughters,  Cuthbert,  who  married  Dorothy,  dau.  of  William  Winckley,  of 
Banister  Hall,  by  Isabel,  dau.  of  Richard  Elston,  of  Higher  Brockholes  Hall, 
and  had  issue  Father  James  Clifton,  S.J.,  born  1698,  died  1750,  Father  Thomas 
Clifton,  S.J.,  bom  1700,  died  1777,  WiUiam,  who  married  his  cousin,  one  of  the 
Brents,  and  was  the  father  of  Anne,  wife  of  Col.  Slaughter,  of  the  family  of 
Cheyney  Court,  co.  Hereford,  Anne  and  Eleanor,  nuns,  Ehzabeth,  wife  of 
Francis  Greene,  and  Mary,  wife  of  her  cousin,  one  of  the  Brents,  by  whom  she 
had  a  son,  Henry  Brent,  who  married  Ellen,  dau.  of  Laurence  Breres,  of  Walton 
Hall,  and  had  a  son,  Laurence  Brent,  and  two  daughters;  Thomas  Clifton, 
born  1675,  who  entered  the  Society  in  1698,  but  left  it  in  1699;  Father  W^illiam 
Clifton,  S.J.,  born  1678,  died  1749;  Francis  Clifton,  born  1682,  who  was  or- 
dained priest  at  the  English  College  at  Rome,  April  3,  1706,  and  left  for  England 
April  2,  1709;  James,  born  1683,  who  died  an  ecclesiastical  student  at  Rome, 
Jan.  2,  1704;  Mary,  born  1679,  became  a  nun  at  Gravelines,  in  1696,  and  died  in 
1729;  Bridget,  spinster,  of  Lytham,  who  was  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717;  and 
Catherine. 

2  She  was  probably  the  dau.  of  John  Brockholes,  of  Claughton  Hall,  by  his 
third  wife  Dorothy,  dau.  of  Robert  White,  of  Cross  House.  She  became  the 
wife  of  Richard  Parkinson,  of  Leach  Hall.  She  must  have  been  very  young 
when  her  father  died  in  1642,  and  at  the  date  of  this  roll  her  half-brother 
Thomas  Brockholes,  born  in  161 3,  was  in  possession  of  the  Claughton  estate, 
which  would  probably  be  under  sequestration  for  recusancy  at  this  time,  and 
hence  his  name  would  be  omitted  from  this  list.  Her  own-brother,  Augustine, 
lived  at  Myerscough,  and  died  in  1679.  A  pedigree  of  the  family  was  returned 
in  1665,  but  it  was  of  an  unsatisfactory  character.  Originally  lords  of  the  manor 
of  Brockholes,  which  eventually  passed  with  two  daughters  and  coheiresses  to 
the  Singletons  and  Ethelstons  (or  Elstons)  about  the  year  1400,  the  descendants 
of  the  younger  son  of  Roger  de  Brockholes,  of  the  thirteenth  century,  continued 
to  reside  at  Claughton  Hall,  as  well  as  at  Heaton  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Lancaster, 
which  they  acquired  in  1440-41 ,  till  the  family  became  extinct  in  the  last  half  of 
the  eighteenth  century.  Thomas  Brockholes,  half-brother  to  Anne  of  the  text, 
had  three  sons,  John,  his  successor, who  died  in  17 19;  Thomas, who  was  ordained 
priest  at  Douay,  officiated  at  Whitehall  during  the  reign  of  James  II,  and  after 
the  revolution  in  1688  went  to  Sunderland  Hall,  the  seat  of  the  Osbalde- 
stons,  then  went  to  Puddington  Hall,  Cheshire,  the  seat  of  William  Massey,  in 
1 71 7  was  at  Standish  Hall,  the  seat  of  the  Standish  family,  and  finally  settled 
at  Burgh  Hall,  the  seat  of  the  Chadwicks,  where  he  died  in  1738;  and  Roger, 
who  was  ordained  priest  at  Lisbon,  and  died  at  York  in  1700.  The  eldest  son, 
John,  born  in  1645,  married  (i)  Anne,  daughter  and  coheiress  of  Thomas 
Barcroft,  of  Barcroft  Hall,  and  (2)  in  Oct.,  17 16,  Mary,  eldest  dau.  and  coheiress

of  Elvet  (grandson  of  William,  Lord  Eure  of  Wilton),  and  sister  and  heiress  of 
Peter  Eure.  By  the  second  marriage  he  left  an  only  daughter,  Catherine  Brock- 
holes,  who,  Nov.  15,  1739,  married  Charles  Howard  of  Greystoke  Castle,  sub- 
sequently tenth  Duke  of  Norfolk.  The  second  Mrs.  Brockholes  married  secondly, 
in  1724,  Richard  Jones,  of  Caton,  and  was  mother  of  Michael  Jones,  and  hence 
the  barony  of  Scrope,  lying  dormant  in  the  Eure  family,  became  vested  in  that 
of  Jones.  By  his  first  wife  John  Brockholes  had  issue — Thomas,  ordained  priest 
at  Douay  in  1706,  died  in  1758  at  Chillington  Hall,  co.  Stafford,  the  seat  of  the 
Giffards;  John,  who  joined  the  Chevalier  de  St  George  at  Preston  in  171 5,  was 
convicted  and  outlawed,  but  escaped  imprisonment,  and  died  at  Claughton, 
Sept.  25,  1717;  Roger,  ordained  priest  at  Rome  in  1708,  died  at  Claughton  in 
1743  J  William,  who  succeeded  to  the  estates;  Charles,  born  in  1684,  who  joined 
the  Society  of  Jesus,  and  died  at  Wigan  in  1759;  Anne,  wife  of  Robert 
Da  vies;  and  Mary,  wife  of  William  Hesketh,  of  Maynes  Hall.  William 
Brockholes  married  Jane,  third  dau.  and  coheiress  of  Michael  Johnson,  of 
Twyzel  Hall  (sister  of  his  father's  second  wife),  and  relict  of  John  Owen,  of 
Chester-le-Street,  co.  Durham,  but  dying  without  issue  the  estates  passed  to 
his  sister  Mary, wife  of  William  Hesketh.  The  latter  had  issue — Thomas  Hesketh, 
who  succeeded  his  uncle,  William  Brockholes,  assumed  that  name,  and  died 
unmarried  in  1766;  Roger  Hesketh,  born  1729,  who  went  to  Rome,  and  after- 
wards to  Watten  with  the  intention  of  becoming  a  Jesuit,  but  his  health  failing 
he  returned  home  and  died  in  1767 ;  Joseph  Hesketh  Brockholes,  who  succeeded 
his  brother  Thomas,  married  in  1768,  Constantia,  dau.  of  Basil  Fitzherbert,  of 
Swynnerton  Hall,  co.  Stafford,  but  dying  without  issue  in  1782,  bequeathed  the 
estates  to  his  brother  James  with  the  recommendation  to  settle  them  on  William 
Fitzherbert,  his  wife's  younger  brother;  and  James  Hesketh  Brockholes,  who 
died  unmarried,  April  16,  1783.  The  estates  accordingly  passed  to  William  Fitz- 
herbert, who  assumed  the  name  of  Brockholes,  and  since  that  date  they  have 
been  held  by  various  members  of  the  Fitzherbert  family,  who  have  in  turn 
assumed  the  name  of  Brockholes. 

^  The  Clitherall  (a  corruption  of  Clitheroe)  family  appears  in  the  rolls  from 
the  commencement  in  1591.  James  Clitherall,  of  Clifton,  died  in  1648,  and  his 
son  a,nd  namesake  in  1668.  The  latter  was  the  father  of  Thomas  Clitherall,  who 
by  his  wife  Mary  had  sons,  John,  living  at  Clifton  in  17 10,  probably  identical 
with  one  of  his  name  of  Newton-cum-Scales,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1715,  and 
Richard  Clitherall,  of  Clifton,  deceased  in  17 14,  who  owned  lands  in  Great  and 
Little  Eccleston.  Elizabeth  Clitherall  of  Clifton,  by  will  dated  Dec.  4,  1675,  left 
charities  to  Clifton,  Newton-cum-Scales,  and  Freckleton. 

2  The  Barrows  of  Weeton  were  recusants  in  1 591,  in  which  year  John 
Barrow's  will  was  proved.  John  Barrowe,  of  Weeton,  and  his  wife  Margaret 
were  staunch  recusants  in  the  first  quarter  of  the  seventeenth  century.  They 
were  probably  the  parents  of  Edward  Barrow,  on  the  rolls  in  1625-6, 
administration  to  whose  estate  was  granted  in  1670,  and  Father  Thomas  Barrow 
alias  Waring  (probably  his  maternal  name)  and  Harcourt,  S.J.,  born  in  16 10, 
who  was  martyred  at  Tyburn  in  1679.  John  Barrow,  appearing  later  under 
Westby,  was  probably  another  brother  of  Edward  of  the  text. 

'  The  Thistletons  of  Kellamergh  and  Bryning  appear  annually  in  the  rolls,

^  Thomas  Bennett  alias  Baines,  born  1656,  son  of  Thomas  Bennett,  probably 
the  one  of  the  text,  was  ordained  priest  at  Rome  Dec.  20,  1681,  and  came  to  the 
mission  in  1683. 

2  His  will  was  proved  in  1 679. 

3  The  Pykes  probably  came  from  South  Lancashire  when  the  Langtree 
family  left  Langtree  Hall  and  settled  at  Swartebreck  (or  Swarbreck)  Hall  in 
Weeton.  Thomas  Fyke  and  Jane  his  wife  were  recusants  at  Eccleston  in  the 
parish  of  Prescot  in  the  reigns  of  James  I  and  Charles  I.  Thomas  died  in  1629, 
and  his  widow  remained  on  the  rolls  for  some  years.  Edward  Pyke,  of  Little 
Plumpton,  and  his  brother  Thomas  Pyke,  of  Claughton,  were  living  in  1762. 
The  former,  by  Jennet  his  wife,  had  a  son  Thomas  baptized  at  Westby  July  29, 
1765.  Edward  Pyke,  of  Claughton,  whose  wife  Mary  died  March  22,  1857,  aged 
eighty-five,  was  father  of  Edward  Pyke,  of  Haighton,  died  Jan.  25,  1873, 
aged  seventy-five,  whose  son  Edward,  of  Blundellsands,  died  April  25,  1908, 
aged  eighty-five;  and  Joseph  Pyke,  of  Preston,  J. P.,  who  married  Margaret, 
daughter  of  Dionysius  Howarth,  of  Preston,  died  Dec.  23,  1885,  aged  seventy- 
live,  and  was  father  of  Edward  Pyke,  of  Southport,  J. P.,  co.  Lancaster,  the 
Very  Rev.  Canon  Joseph  Aloysius  Pyke,  of  Preston,  and  five  daughters,  of 
whom  three  were  nuns.  Edward  married  Hannah,  daughter  of  Richard  Carr,  of 
Holme  Slack,  Preston,  and  of  Green  House,  Balderston,  and  has,  amongst  others, 
the  Rev.  Edward  Pyke,  of  Preston. 

*This  is  an  error  for  Grimbaldeston.  The  will  of  her  husband,  Thomas 
Grimbaldeston,  was  proved  in  1667,  and  her  own  in  1673,  Thomas  was  probably 
son  of  John  Grimbaldeston,  of  Treales,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1630.  The  family 
appears  on  the  rolls  from  the  earliest  period.  Thomas  Grimbaldeston 's  sons  John 
and  William,  of  Treales,  died  in  1680  and  1681.  A  son  of  one  of  these  was  the 
father  of — John,  steward  to  Sir  Robert  Throckmorton,  of  Coughton  Court,  co. 
Warwick,  Bart.,  will  dated  July  4,  1739,  proved  Feb.  16,  1742,  who  by  Eliza-

^  Edward  Worthington,  of  Wharles,  married  Mary,  daughter  and  coheiress 
of  John  Hoghton,  of  Charnock  Richard,  by  Isabel,  daughter  of  Henry  Rogerlye, 
of  Lytham,  younger  son  of  George  Rogerlye,  of  Park  Hall  in  Blackrod,  by  Ellen, 
daughter  of  William  Clifton,  of  Westby  Hall. 

2  Thomas  Westby  was  of  Burne  Hall,  a  fifteenth  century  mansion,  and  his 
wife  was  Bridget,  daughter  of  Thomas  Clifton,  of  Clifton,  Westby,  and  Lytham 
halls,  and  sister  of  Sir  Thomas  Clifton,  Bart.  He  was  born  in  1641,  and  this, 
his  first,  marriage  took  place  in  1661,  and  his  wife  died  in  1675.  He  married, 
secondly,  Margaret  Braithwayte,  of  the  family  of  Burneside  Hall,  co.  West- 
moreland, and  died  in  March,  1 699-1 700.  The  Westbys  returned  pedigrees  at  the 
Visitations  of  1567,  161 3,  and  1664.  They  originally  came  from  Westby,  co. 
York,  but  acquired  Mowbreck  Hall,  in  Medlar-cum-Wesham,  at  an  early  period, 
and  made  it  their  principal  seat,  though  they  retained  the  manor  of  Westby, 
CO.  York,  till  well  into  the  seventeenth  century.  They  also  possessed  the  manor 
called  Westby  Lands  in  Much  Urswick,  the  manors  of  Burne,  Holmes, and  Heaton, 
besides  that  of  Duffield  in  Yorkshire, and  the  junior  branch  of  this  period  owned 
the  manor  of  Up  Rawclifife.  They  were  throughout  the  days  of  the  penal  laws 
most  staunch  in  their  adherence  to  the  old  Faith,  and  suffered  every  kind  of 
imprisonment  and  imposition.  They  were  intermarried  with  the  best  Catholic 
families  of  the  county.  The  chapel  in  Mowbreck  Hall  was  regularly  served  till 
the  closing  years  of  the  eighteenth  century.  The  walls  of  the  domestic  chapel  in 
Burne  Hall  were  ornamented  with  oaken  wainscot,  carved  shields,  small  statues 
and  foliage,  and  the  ceiling  with  vine  leaves  and  clusters  of  grapes.  Over  the 
mantelpiece  was  the  inscription,  "Elegi  abjectus  esse  in  Domo  Dei  mei,  magis 
quam  habitari  in  Tabernaculis  peccatorum."  Thomas  Westby  succeeded  his 
uncle  John  to  the  Mowbreck,  Westby,  and  other  estates  in  1661.  Another  uncle, 
Thomas  Westby,  M.D.,  was  slain  in  the  royal  cause  at  Preston  in  Feb.,  1642-3. 
By  his  first  wife,  Thomas  had  issue — John,  born  1662,  his  successor  to  Mow- 
breck and  Burne ;  Thomas,  of  Thistleton,  who  was  buried  in  the  Westby  chapel 
at  Kirkham  in  March,  1728-9,  s.p.;  William,  s.p.:  Cuthbert,  buried  in  the 
Westby  chapel  at  Kirkham  in  Nov.,  1727,  s.p.;  and  Robert,  who  succeeded  his

this  the  eldest  branch  of  the  family;  Francis,  who  died  an  infant;  Bridget, 
spinster;  Anne,  wife  of  John  Greene,  of  Bowers  House;  and  Dorothy,  wife  of 
Alexander  Parker,  son  of  Christopher  Parker,  of  Bradkirk  Hall.  The  eldest  son, 
John,  married,  Feb.  10,  1688,  Jane,  daughter  of  Christopher  Parker,  of  Brad- 
kirk Hall,  and  at  his  death,  in  June,  1722,  left  four  daughters  and  coheiresses — 
Catherine,  wife  of  Alexander  Osbaldeston,  of  Sunderland  Hall,  Bridget,  wife  of 
William  Shuttleworth,  of  Turnover  Hall,  Mary,  wife  of  Rev.  Thomas  Alderson, 
a  parson,  and  Anne,  wife  of  Rev.  John  Benison,  of  London,  a  parson,  the  two 
last  being  the  only  Protestant  alliances  hitherto  made  by  the  family.  The  only 
child  and  heiress  of  the  Shuttleworth  marriage,  Margaret,  in  1744,  became  the 
wife  of  her  distant  cousin,  Thomas  Westby,  of  Up  RawcliflFe  Hall,  commonly 
called  White  Hall,  and  their  eldest  son  John  Westby,  as  next  heir  in  tail,  suc- 
ceeded to  the  Mowbreck,  Westby  in  Furness,  and  Westby  in  Yorkshire  estates, 
as  well  as  to  Turnover  Hall  and  White  Hall.  His  sister  Bridget,  in  religion  Austin, 
was  prioress  of  the  canonesses  of  the  Holy  Sepulchre  at  Lidge.  Upon  John's 
death  in  181 1  the  estates  passed  to  his  brother  Thomas,  who  upon  his  death  in 
1829  bequeathed  the  estates  to  the  grandson  and  namesake  of  his  uncle  George 
Westby.  This  gentleman  died  at  Paris  in  1842,  aged  fifty-four,  whereupon  his 
widow,  a  non-Catholic,  sent  her  children  to  Protestant  schools,  and  had  them 
brought  up  in  that  faith.  The  eldest,  the  late  Captain  Jocelyn  Tate  Fazakerley- 
Westby,  gradually  parted  with  all  the  Westby  estates,  and  was  the  last  of 
the  family  to  reside  at  Mowbreck  Hall. 

1  The  Lythams  of  Thornton  and  Poulton  were  staunch  recusants  from  the 
earliest  period.  The  will  of  Mark  Lytham,  then  residing  in  Poulton,  was  proved 
in  1699. 

2  George  Gillow,  like  all  his  ancestors  and  descendants,  was  staunch  to  the 
old  Faith.  His  ancestors,  Elias  de  Gillow  and  Thomas  his  son,  were  benefactors 
to  Conishead  Priory  in  the  reign  of  Edward  II.  The  latter's  brother  or  son, 
Robert,  became  Vicar  of  York  Minster,  and  dying  in  1402,  was  buried  in  the 
Cathedral.  The  family  followed  him  to  Yorkshire.  His  nephew  Henry  was  pre- 
sented to  the  rectory  of  Pelham-Stocking,  co.  Hertford,  in  145 1,  and  the 
latter's  nephew,  Mr.  Henry  Gillow,  was  temporal  chancellor  of  Durham, 
1465-76,  rector  of  Hoghton-le-Spring,  1470  till  death,  Master  of  Kepyer  Hospi- 
tal, prebendary  of  Tockerington  in  the  Church  of  York,  1476,  collated  to  Friday- 
thorpe  1479,  installed  sub-dean  of  York,  1477,  and  rector  of  Gilling,  1480.  His 
will  was  dated  Feb.  8,  1482-3.  Henry's  brother  Ralph,  of  Hoghton-le-Spring, 
had  issue,  Thomas,  of  Uncleby,  in  the  parish  of  Kirkby  Underdale,  Ralph,  Seth, 
and  Sir  Robert,  ordained  priest  1481,  admitted  to  the  chantry  at  St  Stephen's

nesborough  Manor,  Stourmouth  Court,  Cooksditch  Court,  and  Buckland  Manor, 
CO.  Kent.  From  George,  the  eldest  son,  descended  his  namesake  of  the  text.  The

wife,  Isabel  Grimston,  granddaughter  of  Thomas  Grimston,  of  Grimston  Garth, 
CO.  York,  by  Dorothy,  dau.  of  Marmaduke  Thwaites,  of  Smeaton,  co.  York, 
was  educated  at  St  Omer's  College,  and  died  at  Cartford,  in  Little  Eccleston,  in 
1709,  leaving,  by  Jennet  his  wife,  a  daughter.  Jennet,  wife  of  William  Gillow,  of 
Little  Eccleston. 

^  John  Swarbreck  was  son  of  Edward  Swarbreck  of  Great  Singleton,  who 
appears  in  the  rolls  up  to  his  death  in  1622,  and  his  widow  Agnes  for  some  years 
later.  His  will  was  proved  in  1667.  One  of  his  sons,  James,  was  baptized  by  the 
Rev,  Thomas  Matthews,  the  priest  at  Great  Singleton,  in  1655,  was  ordained 
priest  at  Rome  in  1678,  using  the  alias  of  Singleton,  succeeded  to  the  charge  of 
the  mission  at  Singleton,  and  resided  in  the  house  of  Richard  Gillow,  where  he 
was  apprehended  in  17 16,  and  died  in  Lancaster  Castle,  through  the  sickness 
prevailing  there,  in  March  of  that  year.  John,  son  of  Edward  Swarbreck,  of 
Singleton,  and  his  wife  Elizabeth,  born  1679,  was  ordained  priest  at  Rome  in 
1 703,  served  New  House  in  Newsham  and  Crow  Hall  in  Woodplumpton,  and  died 
Sept,  15,  1729.  Robert  Swarbreck  alias  Walker,  son  of  William  Swarbreck  and 
his  wife  Lucy,  of  Singleton,  born  1675,  was  ordained  priest  at  Rome  in  1700,  and 
died  Feb.  24,  1736-7.  James  Swarbreck,  of  Great  Singleton,  as  a  non-juror  in 
1 71 7,  registered  leasehold  property  in  Weeton,  and  Thomas  Swarbreck,  of 
Weeton,  was  also  a  non-juror  and  died  in  17 19.  John  Swarbreck,  of  Wesham 
Hall,  brother  of  the  Rev.  James  Swarbreck,  the  priest  at  Great  Singleton,  as  a 
non- juror  registered  leasehold  estate  at  Wesham  and  Weeton,  as  well  as  a  free- 
hold estate  in  Hardhorn-with-Newton,  which  in  reality  he  held  in  trust  for  the 
Singleton  mission.  The  Swarbrecks,  deriving  their  origin  from  Swarbreck  Hall,  in 
Weeton-cum-Preese,  were  recusants  throughout  penal  times.  One  of  the  grand- 
sons of  John  Swarbreck  of  the  text  settled  at  Nateby  House,  in  the  parish  of 
Garstang,  and  his  descendant,  Thomas  Swarbrick,  in  1806  purchased  Nateby 
Hall.  The  latter's  son  Edward  Swarbrick,  of  Nateby  House,  by  his  wife  Marga- 
ret, dau,  of  James  Newsham,  of  Bell  Fold  in  Newsham,  was  the  father  of  the  Rev. 
James  Swarbrick,  thirty-two  years  priest  at  Thurnham,  who  died  at  Hornby 
in  1898,  aged  seventy-five,  and  the  Rev.  Edward  Swarbrick,  who  served 
Preston,  Great  Eccleston,  and  Clifton  Hill,  and  died  at  Fulwood  in  1893,  aged 
68.  Another  and  probably  the  senior  branch  of  the  family  was  represented  by 
John  Swarbreck,  surgeon,  of  Poulton-le-Fylde,  who  married  Anne,  dau.  of 
Thomas  Worswick,  of  Todderstaffe  Hall  and  Lancaster,  by  Alice,  dau.  of 
Robert  Gillow,  of  Lancaster,  subsequently  settled  at  Sowerby,  in  the  parish  of 
Thirsk,  and  was  ancestor  of  the  Rev.  Thomas  Oswald,  O.S.B.,  and  Charles  Swar- 
breck. 

^Administration  to  his  estate  was  granted  in  1671 .  The  Ecclestons  of  Great 
Singleton  appear  annually  in  the  rolls  from  the  commencement.  Thomas 
Eccleston,  priest,  born  at  Great  Singleton,  spent  more  than  forty  years  of 
missionary  labour  in  the  parishes  of  Halsall  and  Aughton,  and  was  buried  in 
the  Harkirk  cemetery  in  1700.

^The  Gauntsof  Great  Singleton,  descended  from  one  of  the  followers  of 
John  of  Ghent,  who  was  Lord  of  Singleton,  and  is  said  to  have  sometimes  resided 
there,  appear  annually  in  the  rolls.  John  Gaunt's  will  was  proved  in  1697. 
William  Gaunt,  of  Great  Singleton,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1606,  had  two 
sons  priests,  James,  alias  Sands,  who  went  from  Douay  to  Rome,  where 
ordained  priest  in  1607,  became  archdeacon  of  the  chapter,  and  died  in  Lanca- 
shire in  1658,  and  Thomas,  alias  Sands  and  Thornbrough,  born  at  Singleton 
about  1587,  went  from  Douay  to  Rome,  where  ordained  in  161 3,  apprehended 
on  the  mission,  and  imprisoned  in  the  Clink,  whence  released  and  exiled  in  1630. 
Another  priest,  James  Gaunt,  probably  son  of  Thomas  Gaunt,  of  Singleton,  the 
one  of  the  text,  whose  will  was  proved  in  168 1,  is  met  with  serving  Myerscough

Thurnham  Hall  in  1729,  and  died  Oct.  28,  1734.  William  Gaunt,  bom  1721, 
son  of  William  Gaunt,  of  Great  Singleton,  and  his  wife  Jane  Jackson,  was 
admitted  into  Douay  College,  Sept.  25,  1737,  ordained  priest  May  27,  1747, 
came  to  the  mission  and  served  Mowbreck  Hall,  where  in  Feb.,  1754,  his 
Superiors  had  reason  to  be  dissatisfied  with  him,  and  in  1760  he  was  sent  with 
the  Rev.  Jerome  Wilson  to  Raventofts,  Yorkshire.  Thence  he  was  placed  at 
Nidd  Hall,  the  seat  of  the  Trappes  family,  in  1763,  but  left  and  apostatized, 
preaching  his  recantation  sermon  at  Manchester  in  1769,  when  he  was  given  a 
curacy  at  Brindle,  and  subsequently  obtained  that  of  Wrea  Green,  not  very  far 
from  his  old  mission  of  Mowbreck  Hall,  where  he  passed  an  unhappy  time, 
depressed  with  melancholy,  till  his  death  in  1773. 

*The  Chamleys  of  Great  Singleton  appear  annually  in  the  rolls.  Beatrix,  of 
the  text,  may  have  been  a  relative  of  Richard  Charnley,  of  Little  Poulton  Hall, 
will  proved  17 10,  whose  wife  was  Margaret,  dau.  of  William  Hesketh,  of  Maynes 
Hall,  in  Little  Singleton,  by  Perpetua,  dau.  of  Thomas  Westby,  of  Mowbreck 
Hall,  who  survived  her  husband,  was  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717,  and  whose  will 
was  proved  April  19,  1719. 

^Dorothy,  dau.  of  William  Hesketh,  of  Maynes  Hall,  by  Perpetua,  dau.  of 
Thomas  Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall,  married  Thomas  Wilkinson,  of  Claughton, 
an  old  Catholic  family,  one  of  whom,  Thomas,  married  Elizabeth,  dau.  of 
John  Newsham,  of  Newsham  Hall,  in  the  reign  of  Elizabeth.  Dorothy's  dau., 
Perpetua  Wilkinson,  married  John  Fletcher,  of  Denton's  Green,  in  Windle,  son 
of  Thomas  Fletcher,  of  the  same,  and  her  son  William  Fletcher  alias  Wilkin- 
son, born  1722,  ordained  priest  at  Douay,  was  a  professor,  and  in  1762  became 
vice-president  of  St  Omer's  College,  when  it  was  transferred  from  the  Jesuits 
to  the  secular  clergy.  He  died  at  Bath,  March  24,  1803.  John  Wilkinson,  born 
1703,  ordained  priest  at  Douay,  and  prefect  there  for  many  years,  finally 
became  chaplain  at  the  Augustinian  Convent  at  Paris  in  1741,  and  died  there 
in  1 77 1.  An  earlier  member  of  the  family.  Father  Thomas  Wilkinson  alias 
Molyneux,  S.J.,  born  1638,  ordained  priest  at  Valladolid,  was  thrown  into  the 
gaol  at  Morpeth  during  the  Gates  Plot  ferment,  and  was  poisoned  by  the  prison 
surgeon  in  1681.

Waldivus  Butler,  ^  gen  Jana  ux  eius 

*  The  Butlers  of  Rawcliffe  Hall  returned  a  very  full  pedigree  at  the  Visita- 
tion of  1664,  and  very  elaborate  MS.  pedigrees  are  extant,  but  the  name  in  the 
text  is  not  found  in  them.  They  were  always  staunch  to  the  Faith.  Henry  Butler, 
the  Lord  of  Rawcliffe,  died  in  this  very  year,  1667.  His  estate  would  probably 
be  sequestrated  for  recusancy,  and  hence  his  name  would  not  appear  in  this  list. 
He  was  the  eldest  son  of  WiUiam  Butler,  of  Rawcliffe  Hall,  by  Ehzabeth,  dau. 
of  Cuthbert  Clifton,  of  Westby  Hall.  He  was  thrice  married  (i),  to  Dorothy, 
dau.  of  Henry  Stanley,  of  Bickerstaffe  Hall,  and  sister  of  Sir  Edward  Stanley, 
Bart.,  ancestor  of  the  Earls  of  Derby,  (2)  to  Cecily,  dau.  of  Edward  Parkinson, 
of  Westfield  in  Claughton,  and  (3)  to  Isabel  Grimston,  granddaughter  of 
Thomas  Grimston,  of  Grimston  Garth,  co.  York,  by  all  of  whom  he  had  issue. 
His  eldest  son,  Richard,  was  slain  at  Manchester  in  1643,  but  left  a  large  family 
by  his  wife  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Thomas  Stanley,  of  Great  Eccleston  Hall.  Henry, 
the  second  son  of  Henry  by  his  first  wife,  married  Jane,  dau.  of  Thomas  Stanley, 
of  Great  Eccleston  Hall,  and  it  seems  not  improbable  that  he  is  identical  with 
the  "Waldivus"  of  the  text.  This  Henry  had  a  large  family,  of  whom  Charles, 
the  eldest,  was  the  grandfather  of  Richard  Butler,  of  Pleasington  Hall.  The 
Butlers  continued  at  Rawcliffe  till  the  time  of  Henry  Butler,  who  was  thrice 
married,  (i)  in  1683  to  Magdalen,  dau.  of  John  Girlington,  and  granddaughter 
and  ultimately  heiress  of  Sir  John  Girlington,  of  Thurland  Castle,  (2)  to  Anne, 
dau.  of  Mr  Howard,  of  Barnard  Castle,  and  (3)  to  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Thomas 
Butler,  of  Kirkland  Hall.  By  his  first  wife  he  had  an  only  son,  Richard,  who 
was  taken  prisoner  at  the  battle  of  Preston  in  171 5,  condemned  to  death  for 
high  treason,  but  died  in  prison  in  London,  Jan.  16,  17 16,  and  his  estates 
forfeited  and  sold,  the  father,  Henry,  having  fled  to  the  Isle  of  Man.  By  his  wife 
Mary,  dau.  of  Henry  Curwen,  of  Workington  Hall,  co.  Cumberland,  Richard 
left  an  only  child,  Catherine,  who  only  inherited  the  Thurland  Castle  estate.  She 
married,  in  1729,  Philip  Markham,  of  Ollerton  Hall,  co.  Notts,  but  died  under 
age  and  sine  prole.  Thus  one  of  the  most  ancient  families  in  the  country  was 
ruined,  and  practically  came  to  an  end  in  respect  of  their  county  position.  A 
cousin  of  the  last  young  lord  of  Rawcliffe,  William  Butler,  of  Myerscough,  son 
of  Edward,  married  Rosamond,  dau.  of  Richard  Longworth,  of  St  Michael's 
Hall,  engaged  in  the  rising  of  171 5,  was  tried  and  convicted  of  high  treason  at 
Liverpool,  Jan.  20,  and  executed  at  Preston,  Jan.  28,  17 16.  There  were  several 
secular  priests,  Benedictines,  and  Jesuits,  besides  a  great  many  nuns  in  the  family, 
of  whom  were — John  Butler,  probably  son  of  Nicholas  Butler,  of  Rawcliffe  Hall, 
ordained  from  Rheims  at  Laon,  in  1 588 ;  John  Butler,  baptized  April  6,  1 579.  son 
of  Alban  Butler,  of  Nateby  (younger  son  of  John  Butler,  of  Kirkland  Hall),  by 
Grace,  his  wife,  probably  a  daughter  of  Richard  Travers,  of  Nateby  Hall,  and 
his  wife  Grace,  dau.  of  Richard  Redman,  of  Harewood  Castle,  co.  York, 
admitted  into  the  English  College  at  Rome  in  1601,  aged  twenty,  was  sent  to 
Belgium  on  account  of  ill-health  in  1602,  and  died  in  England;  John  Butler 
alias  Ellison,  possibly  the  fourth  son  of  William  Butler,  of  Rawcliffe,  and  his 
wife  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Cuthbert  Clifton,  of  Westby  Hall,  came  to  the  mission 
from  Douay  in  1626,  and  was  serving  in  Lancashire  in  1632;  John  Jerome 
Butler  alias  Berry,  O.S.B.,  born  17 14,  died  in  Lancashire  in  1792;  Thomas 
Butler,  S.J.,  born  17 18,  third  son  of  Christopher  Butler,  of  Stalmine  (twenty- 
first  child  of  Richard  Butler,  of  Rawcliffe  Hall,  and  his  wife  Katherine,  dau.  of

Goose,  of  Stalmine  Hall,  died  1779;  Philip  Butler,  born  Dec.  8,  1724,  son  of 
William  Butler  and  his  wife  Dorothy  Ashton,  was  ordained  priest  at  Douay, 
Dec.  19,  1750,  left  for  the  mission,  May  9,  1752,  and  was  placed  at  Blackbrook, 
the  seat  of  the  Orrells,  where  he  remained  till  his  death,  Dec.  19,  1777 ;  Richard

Roskell,  of  Out  Rawcliffe,  widow,  was  a  recusant  in  1627  seq.  The  will  of  John 
Roskell,  of  Out  Rawcliffe,  was  proved  in  1721,  and  that  of  Thomas  Roskell,  of

the  famous  watch- making  business,  mentioned  below,  is  alluded  to  in  the  Lanca- 
shire ballad,  of  which  the  following  is  a  stanza : 

"And  there  lies  little  Garstang 
With  houses  all  o'  thatch. 
That  gave  arise  to  Roskells  all 
And  patent  lever  watch." 

He  had  issue — George,  born  July  27,  1773,  who  married  Jane,  daughter  of 
James  Sidgreaves,  of  Inglewhite  Lodge,  by  his  second  wife  Martha,  daughter

Thomas,  born  1787,  who  died  at  the  Benedictine  Monastery  at  Ampleforth,  co. 
York;  and  Mary,  wife  of  Richard  Arrowsmith,  banker,  of  Preston.  George,  the

and  Industrial  School  at  Manchester,  born  at  Garstang,  in  the  Fylde,  was  a 
descendant  of  one  of  the  latter. 

*  There  were  several  Benedictines  of  a  family  of  this  name,  but  it  is  not 
easy  to  assign  them.  Richard  Naylor,  of  Rainford,  John,  of  Orrell,  John,  of  West 
Leigh,  Richard,  of  Pemberton,  and  Richard,  of  Brindle,  were  recusants  in  1679. 
Thomas  Naylor,  of  Orrell,  as  a  non-juror  in  1717  registered  property  at  West 
Leigh  let  to  William  Naylor,  and  he  names  his  mother  Martha.  Thomas  Naylor,  of 
Ashton-in-Macclesfield,  a  non-juror  in  1717,  names  his  son  and  daughter 
Thomas  and  Mary.  Dom  William  Placid  Naylor,  O.S.B.,  born  at  Scarisbrick, 
served  Brindle  from  1722  to  1769.  He  had  two  relatives  nuns  at  Cambray,  one  of 
them,  his  sister,  being  Ellen  Teresa,  bom  in  1677.  His  nephew  Dom  John 
Placid  Naylor,  born  1741,  died  1795,  was  evidently  related  to  the  Naylors  of 
Orrell,  for  amongst  his  papers  seized  during  the  French  Revolution  was  the 
marriage  settlement  between  Thomas  Naylor,  of  Orrell,  and  Mrs  Alice  Card- 
well,  of  Goosnargh,  relict  of  Thomas  Card  well,  dated  Nov.  22,  1752,  and  also  the 
will  of  Thomas  Naylor.  A  nephew  of  the  latter  Benedictine,  Dom  John  Ambrose 
Naylor,  born  1738,  died  in  182 1.

1745-6.  After  this  the  family  are  lost  in  obscurity.  There  were  chapels  main- 
tained by  the  family  at  Morleys  Hall,  Myerscough  Lodge,  and  Fox  Hall. 

^The  presumably  elder  and  Protestant  branch  of  the  family  returned  a 
pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664.  They  were  seated  at  Huyton,  till  Jonathan 
Case,  born  in  1653,  acquired  Red  Hasles  and  Whiston  Hall  with  his  wife, 
Elizabeth,  heiress  of  Edward  Ogle.  She  died  in  Oct,  1675,  and  subsequently 
Red  Hasles  was  sold  by  Henry  Case.  His  descendant,  Thomas  Case,  of  Huyton 
and  Whiston,  married  a  daughter  of  Giovanni  Maurometti,  who  died  a  widow, 
and  a  Catholic,  in  Paris.  Feb.  19,  1890,  aged  seventy-two.  Robert  Case,  of

Whiston,  was  a  recusant  in  1630,  and  his  widow,  Elizabeth,  appears  in  the  roll 
for  1635-6.  Henry  Case  and  Robert  and  Jane  his  wife  were  recusants  of 
Whiston  in  1679.  Henry  Case,  of  Whiston,  registered  his  estate  as  a  non- 
juror in  1 717,  and  names  his  sons  John  and  James,  and  William  Case,  of 
Whiston,  son  of  Robert,  then  living,  was  a  non-juror  at  the  same  date,  and 
names  his  sons  Roger,  Richard,  and  Robert.  The  will  of  Roger  Case,  of  Whiston, 
was  proved  in  1676. 

^The  Halsallsof  Melling,  descended  from  Richard,  second  son  of  Sir  Henry 
Halsall,  of  Halsall  Hall,  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1665.  Cuthbert, 
eighth  son  of  Thomas  Halsall,  of  Melling,  by  his  second  wife,  Margery,  dau.  of 
Richard  Maghull,  of  Maghull,  died  in  1666.  His  sister  Anne,  of  Melling,  appears 
earlier  in  the  text,  and  his  brother  James  later.  Richard,  the  eldest  brother,  had 
a  son  and  namesake  aged  about  fifty-four  in  1665,  who  was  married  and  had 
issue.  Henry,  the  second  brother,  married  Margaret,  dau.  of  Edmund  Gascoigne, 
of  Yorkshire,  and  dying  about  1682,  left  a  son,  Thomas  Halsall,  who  was  con- 
tracted in  marriage  to  Bridget,  dau.  and  coheiress  of  Sir  Cuthbert  Halsall,  of 
Halsall,  which  marriage,  however,  was  dissolved,  and  he  then  married  Elizabeth, 
daughter  of  a  fourth  son  of  Berington  of  Cowarne  Court,  co.  Hereford,  but 
recorded  no  issue  at  the  Visitation  of  1665,  at  which  time  he  was  sixty-two 
years  of  age.  From  one  of  these  eight  brothers  descended  James  Halsall,  of 
Aughton,  who  registered  his  estate  as  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717,  and  names 
Ann,  his  wife,  and  his  sons  and  daughters,  Edward,  James,  Mary,  and  Anne. 
He  registered  property  at  Westhead,  in  the  parish  of  Ormskirk,  an  ancient  Hal- 
sall possession.

and  aunt  of  Sir  Roger  Bradshaigh,  Bart.  She  was  buried  in  the  Scarisbrick 
chancel  at  Ormskirk,  April  16,  1667.  The  family  returned  a  pedigree  at  the 
Visitation  of  1567,  in  which,  however,  the  descent  of  the  widow's  husband  is 
not  shown.  Edward  Scarisbrick,  of  Scarisbrick,  great  grandson  of  Gilbert, 
married  (i)  Margaret,  dau.  of  Alexander  Barlow,  of  Barlow  Hall,  and  (2),  Anne

brick, upon  whom  her  grandfather  Edward  Scarisbrick  settled  the  family 
estates.  Henry  Scarisbrick  was  the  eldest  son  of  Thomas  Scarisbrick,  of  Bar- 
wick  in  Furness,  son  of  Henry,  whose  father,  James  Scarisbrick,  of  Bickerstaffe, 
who  acquired  that  estate  with  his  first  wife,  Elizabeth,  dau.  and  sole  heiress 
of  Thomas  Atherton,  of  Bickerstaffe  Hall,  was  the  younger  brother  of  the 
Gilbert  Scarisbrick  mentioned  above.  James  Scarisbrick's  second  wife,  the 
mother  of  Henry,  was  a  dau.  of  Sir  Thomas  Gerard,  of  Bryn  Hall.  Henry

posthumous  son,  Edward,  baptized  March  9,  1608-9,  who  married  Frances 
Bradshaigh,  of  the  text,  March  24,  1631.  He  suffered  much  for  his  faith  and 
loyalty,  and  his  estate  was  under  sequestration  at  the  time  of  his  death  in  1652. 
He  had  issue — James,  born  1635,  who  succeeded  to  Scarisbrick;  Edward,  alias

within  Scarisbrick,  who  had  acquired  Eccleston  Hall  by  settlement  of  the  last 
of  the  Ecclestons,  Father  Thomas  Eccleston,  S.J.,  and  assumed  that  name.  He

uncle,  Father  Francis  Scarisbrick,  S.J.,  died  the  same  year,  having  settled  the 
Scarisbrick  estate  upon  him.  Upon  the  death  of  his  uncle,  Edward  Dicconson 
in  1807,  Thomas  Scarisbrick  Eccleston  succeeded  to  the  Wrightington  Hall 
estates,  married  Eleanor,  dau.  of  Thomas  Clifton,  of  Lytham  Hall,  and  died 
Nov,  I,  1809,  having  had  issue — Thomas  Scarisbrick,  who  inherited  Scarisbrick 
and  Eccleston,  married  Sybella  Georgiana,  dau.  of  William  ffarington,  of  Shaw 
Hall,  and  died  s.p.,  July  11,  1833;  Charles,  who  inherited  Wrightington,  and 
assumed  the  name  of  Dicconson,  but  upon  his  succession  to  the  Scarisbrick 
estates  in  1833,  resumed  the  name  of  Scarisbrick  only,  and  died  unmarried  at 
Scarisbrick  Hall,  May  6,  i860;  William,  died  young;  Anne,  married  in  1807  to 
Sir  Thomas  Windsor  Hunloke,  of  Wingerworth  Hall,  co.  Derby,  Bart.,  and  after 
the  death  of  her  brother  Charles,  in  i860,  succeeded  to  the  Scarisbrick  estate,  and 
assumed  that  name;  and  Elizabeth,  wife  of  her  cousin,  Edward  Clifton,  younger 
son  of  John  Chfton,  of  Lytham  Hall  and  Clifton  Hall,  and  succeeded  to  Wright- 
ington Hall  upon  the  death  of  her  brother  Charles  Scarisbrick,  and  assumed  the 
name  of  Dicconson.  Upon  Lady  Hunloke-Scarisbrick's  death,  March  6,  1872, 
the  Scarisbrick  estate  devolved  upon  her  daughter,  Eliza  Margaret,  wife  of 
Leon  Remy  de  Biandos,  Marquis  of  Casteja,  who  by  royal  licence  assumed 
the  name  of  Scarisbrick.  The  Marchioness  died  at  Scarisbrick  Hall,  Nov.  13, 
1878,  aged  sixty-eight,  and  was  buried  at  Wingerworth. 

^Hugh  Worthington,  who  in  later  rolls  is  described  as  "gentleman,"  was 
apparently  the  son  of  Edward  Worthington,  of  Scarisbrick,  and  his  wife  Alice, 
dau.  of  Gabriel  Hesketh,  of  Aughton  Hall.  In  171 7  James  Worthington,  of 
Scarisbrick,  registered  his  estate  as  a  Catholic  non- juror,  and  names  his  wife 
Grace.  It  seems  most  probable  that  Edward  was  the  eldest  son  of  John  Worth 
ington,  of  Worthington,  will  proved  1667,  who  was  second  son  of  Thomas 
Worthington,  of  Worthington  Hall,  by  Isabel,  dau.  of  Gilbert  Langtree,  of 
Langtree  Hall.  The  Worthingtons  returned  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of 
161 3  and  1664. 

2  Jane,  dau.  of  John  Molyneux,  of  New  Hall,  married  John  Johnson,  of  The 
Moorside,  in  Great  Crosby.  In  her  will  dated  March  16,  1702,  proved  same  year, 
she  names  among  others  her  brother  Edward  Molyneux,  sister  Margaret  Moly- 
neux, and  her  nephews  Edward  Molyneux,  of  Formby,  with  Dorothy  his  wife.

Catherine  Breres,  a  nun  at  GraveUnes.  John  Johnson,  of  Great  Crosby,  was  a 
CathoUc  non-juror  in  171 7. 

^The  Grange,  or  Alt  Grange,  really  in  Altcar,  was  held  by  the  Molyneux 
family,  of  New  Hall,  in  West  Derby,  under  a  long  lease  from  their  kinsmen 
and  namesakes  of  Sefton.  John  Molynevix,  of  the  Grange,  was  a  recusant  in 
1626-7,  and  he  and  his  wife  Margaret,  dau.  of  John  Whalley,  appear  in  the  roll 
for  1633-4.  The  will  of  Margaret  Molyneux,  of  Alt  Grange,  widow,  was  proved 
in  1693.  Their  son,  Edward  Molyneux,  born  at  Alt  Grange,  was  ordained  priest 
at  Douay,  and  for  thirty-eight  years  served  the  chapel  at  Alt  Grange,  where  he 
resided  with  his  brother  Richard,  and  his  son  and  namesake,  till  his  death 
caused  by  a  fall  from  his  horse  on  Blundell  sands,  April  28,  1704,  aged  sixty- 
four.  His  sister,  Jane  Johnson,  named  in  the  text,  left  funds  for  the  education 
of  her  grandnephew  Edward  Molyneux  alias  Harrington,  born  March  10,  1700, 
who,  after  his  ordination  at  Douay,  left  the  College  for  the  mission,  Sept.  25, 
1728,  and  died  at  Moor  Hall,  Oct.  20,  1739.  He  was  the  son  of  Edward  Moly- 
neux, of  Formby,  by  Dorothy,  dau.  of  Alexander  Hesketh,  of  Aughton.  Bishop 
Smith  confirmed  upwards  of  one  hundred  persons'  at  Alt  Grange  on  'Nov.  30, 
1703.  The  mission  subsequently  merged  into  that  at  Formby.  The  family 
returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1665.  Richard,  the  second  son  of  Rich- 
ard, of  New  Hall  and  Alt  Grange,  and  his  wife  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Robert 
Harrington,  of  Huyton  Hall,  died  at  Alt  Grange,  Jan.  27,  171 3.  The  family 
eventually  succeeded  to  the  estates  of  the  Harringtons,  and  is  now  represented, 
through  the  Unsworths,  by  the  Molyneux-Seels. 

2  The  Melling  family  no  doubt  took  its  name  from  Melling  in  the  parish  of 
Halsall.  One  or  other  of  the  several  Mellings  of  the  text  would  be  connected 
with  the  family,  of  which  there  were  many  priests.  A  Douay  priest  of  the  name 
came  over  about  1580.  John  Melling  alias  Maxfield  was  ordained  at  Douay  in 
1612,  was  lodging  in  Holborn  in  1623,  was  apprehended,  but  released  by 
Charles  I  in  1625,  and  returning  to  Lancashire  died  and  was  buried  in  the 
Harkirke  cemetery,  Ince  Blundell,  April  26,  1633.  Richard  Melling,  ordained 
priest  at  Douay  in  1620,  came  to  England  in  the  following  year.  Ralph  Melling, 
ordained  priest  at  Douay,  March  10,  1629,  left  the  college  for  England  May  5, 
1632,  and  was  buried  at  Harkirke,  Ince  Blundell,  May  2,  1660.  Ralph  and 
Thomas  Melling  were  recusants  at  Skelmersdale  in  1679.  Ralph  married  Anne 
Tootell,  sister  of  the  Rev.  Christopher  Tootell,  of  Fernyhalgh,  settled  there  or 
in  the  neighbourhood,  and  had  two  sons  priests — Edward,  bom  March  14,

widow  of  John  Melling,  of  Claughton,  whose  will  was  proved  in  171 5,  registered 
her  estate  as  a  Catholic  non-juror,  and  mentioned  her  son  Edward,  then  an 
infant.  The  Rev.  John  Melling,  now  of  Wrightington  Hall,  is  probably  descended 
from  the  same  family.

2  Richard  Bilhnge,  M.D.,  of  Billinge  Hall,  returned  a  long  pedigree  at  the 
Visitation  of  1665,  being  then  of  the  age  of  fifty-two.  He  visited  Rome  in  1642, 
and  became  a  Catholic  just  before  his  marriage  with  Margery,  dau.  of  Robert 
Molyneux,  of  the  Wood,  in  Melling,  by  his  second  wife  Ellen,  dau,  of  John 
Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall.  Administration  to  his  estate  was  granted  in  1670. 
His  fourth  son,  Thomas  Billinge  alias  Westby,  born  about  1654,  was  ordained 
priest  at  Rome  in  1686,  and  for  some  time  remained  in  the  service  of  his 
Excellency  the  Legate,  subsequently  laboured  many  years  on  the  mission,  but 
at  length  returned  to  Rome  to  end  his  days,  and  died  there  Jan.  9,  1739-40. 
The  eldest  son,  John,  aged  seventeen  in  1665,  succeeded  to  BiUinge  Hall,  and 
appears  on  the  roils  down  to  1684.  Margaret  Billinge,  of  Bedford,  his  widow,  in 
1717  registered  her  estate  as  a  Catholic  non- juror,  devised  to  her  by  her  aunt, 
Anne  Mossock,  dau.  and  coheiress  of  Richard  Urmston,  of  West  Leigh,  and 
widow  of  Thomas  Mossock,  of  Cunscough  Hall.  She  was  apparently  Margaret, 
dau.  and  coheiress  of  George  Bradshaw,  of  Greenacre,  by  Frances,  dau.  and 
coheiress  of  Richard  Urmston,  and  relict  of  Richard  Shuttleworth,  of  Bedford 
Hall.  John  Billinge,  of  Manchester,  who  also  registered  an  estate  in  Bedford  as 
a  non-juror  in  171 7,  was  apparently  her  son.  The  latter's  brothers.  Father 
Richard  Billinge,  S.J.,  born  in  1674  or  1676,  was  chaplain  at  Croxteth  Hall  in 
1720,  and  at  Bryn  in  1721,  where  he  died,  and  was  buried  at  Winwick,  May  22, 
1732;  and  George  Billinge,  temporal  coadjutor,  S.J.,  born  1678,  died  in  1739. 
Father  Richard  Laurence  Billinge  alias  Laurenson,  S.J.,  born  Feb.  15,  171 3, 
was  ordained  priest  at  Valladolid,  March  4,  1739,  and  died  in  1769.  Charles 
Billinge,  nephew  of  Richard  and  George,  born  Dec.  16,  1735,  entered  the  Soc. 
of  Jesus  1753,  and  was  prefect  of  St  Omer's  College  in  1761,  then  came  on  the 
mission,  and  was  chaplain  to  Francis  Whitgreave,  at  Moseley  House,  in  Stafford- 
shire, for  a  few  years,  till  his  passion  for  music  led  him  much  into  company,  and 
gradually  estranged  him  from  his  duty,  caused  him  to  conform  first,  and  then 
to  marry.  He  preached  his  recantation  sermon  in  Lichfield  Cathedral  in  the 
summer  of  1767,  but  did  not  gain  much  respect  in  the  Anglican  Church,  and 
received  no  preferment,  though  he  occasionally  officiated  as  a  curate  at  Wom- 
bourn.  He  lived  in  Wolverhampton,  and  in  1767  was  writing  threatening  letters 
to  his  former  patron,  Francis  Whitgreave.  He  had  a  numerous  family,  was 
always  wretchedly  poor,  earning  a  scanty  maintenance  by  teaching  French  in 
Wolverhampton,  where  he  came  to  a  miserable  end  in  1805.  "My  townsman, 
Billinge,"  wrote  Bishop  Milner  in  the  Appendix  to  his  address  to  the  Bishop 
of  St  David's,  "finding  himself  summoned  away,  sunk  into  despair,  starting 
continually,  and  exclaiming,  'I  am  a  lost  man!  I  am  a  lost  man,  and  dream  of 
nothing  but  of  hell-fire!'  "

April  26,  1678,  as  Catholic  non-jurors  in  1717. 

1  Alexander  Leigh,  of  Ackhurst  Hall,  in  Orrell,  gent.,  was  the  son  and  heir 
of  James  Leigh,  and  his  wife  Margaret,  of  the  same,  who  died  in  1648,  his 
armorial  bearings  being  over  the  Wigan  Free  Grammar  School,  to  which  he 
contributed  funds.  He  had  sisters  Alice,  Jane,  and  Ellen.  His  will  was  proved  in 
1676.  He  married  a  dau.  of  Ralph  Lay  ton,  younger  son  of  Thomas  Lay  ton,  of 
Saxhow,  CO.  York,  by  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Sir  James  Metcalfe,  of  Nappa,  co. 
York.  Mrs  Leigh's  mother  was  Dorothy,  dau.  of  Sir  Thomas  Gerard,  of  Bryn 
Hall.  By  this  marriage  Alexander  Leigh  had  issue — James;  Richard,  who  suc- 
ceeded to  Ackhurst  Hall;  Father  John  Joseph,  alias  Layton,  S.J,,  born  1639, 
died  1703;  Father  Philip,  alias  Layton  and  Metcalfe,  S.J.,  bom  Feb.,  1650-1, 
died  1 71 7;  and  probably  others,  Richard,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1684,  by 
his  wife  Emerentia,  had  issue — Father  Alexander  Leigh  alias  Layton,  S.  J.,  bom 
1 68 1,  died  1748;  Margaret  and  Catherine,  spinsters,  and  Anne,  widow  of  Mr 
Sandford,  of  the  family  of  Up  Rossall,  co.  Salop,  who  were  all  residing  with 
their  mother  at  Ackhurst  Hall  in  17 17  and  registered  their  interest  in  the 
estate  as  Catholic  non-jurors.  Mrs  Sandford  subsequently  resided  at  Preston, 
and  in  1740  gave  ;^ioo  to  the  mission  at  Crossbrook  in  Orrell,  subject  to 
requiem  Masses  to  be  said  for  her  mother  Emerentia  on  Sept,  4,  for  her  sisters 
Margaret  and  Catherine,  on  Sept.  26  and  July  5  respectively,  and  another  for 
herself  on  the  anniversary  of  her  death.  Previous  to  the  establishment  of  the 
mission  at  Crossbrook,  in  1699,  the  priest  resided  at  Ackhurst  Hall,  and  the 
Catholics  of  the  district  went  to  Mass  there.  It  would  appear  that  the  hall 
eventually  became  known  as  Orrell  Mount,  and  was  occupied  as  a  convent  by 
some  French  Benedictines,  driven  from  France  in  1 792,  who  removed  to  Orrell 
in  1 82 1  from  Heath  Hall,  near  Wakefield,  and  remained  till  about  1840. 

*The  will  of  Alexander  Barker,  of  Dalton,  was  proved  in  1676,  and  that  of 
Alexander  Barker,  of  Langtree,  in  1679.  There  were  several  priests  of  the 
family.  Alexander  Barker  alias  Parr  was  ordained  at  Douay,  March  15,  1 631,  and 
served  the  mission  at  Little  Crosby,  where  he  died  Oct.  11,  1665.  James  Barker 
alias  Laurence  Rigby,  born  1675,  educated  at  Douay,  took  the  degree  of  D.D. 
at  St  Gregory's,  Paris,  returned  to  Douay  as  professor  of  divinity  in  1707, 
became  vice-president,  and  in  171 3  came  to  the  mission,  was  elected  archdeacon 
of  the  chapter,  March  10,  171 1-2,  was  also  secretary,  lived  many  years  at 
Wycliffe  Hall,  and  died  there  Sept.  23,  1731. 

^His  will  was  dated  1672,  proved  in  1676.  He  returned  a  long  pedigree  at 
the  Visitation  of  1664,  when  he  was  eighty-four  years  of  age.  His  wife  was 
Margaret,  dau.  of  George  Norris,  of  Bolton,  and  they  had  issue — John  Culcheth, 
slain  at  the  battle  of  Newbury,  Sept.  20,  1643,  in  the  royal  cause;  William, 
cornet  in  the  royal  army,  slain  at  Newbury,  Sept.  20,  1643;  Thomas,  aged 
forty-four  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  married  Mary,  dau.  of  Ralph  Taylor,  of 
CO,  Worcester;  Roger,  slain  at  Wlrrall,  in  Cheshire,  in  1643;  George,  of  Towne- 
ley  in  1682,  and  later  of  Abram,  will  proved  1702;  Ralph,  married  Elizabeth, 
dau,  of  Richard  Tonge,  of  Tonge  Hall;  Alexander,  of  Abram,  administration 
granted  to  his  estate  in  1685;  Margaret,  wife  of  William  Crouchley,  of  Gol- 
bome,  appearing  in  the  text;  EHzabeth,  wife  of  William  Bolton,  of  Piatt  Bridge, 
in  Ince ;  and  Anne,  wife  of  Robert  Hunt,  of  near  Frodsham  in  Cheshire,  Thomas 
Culcheth,  the  eldest  surviving  son,  who  probably  lived  at  Wappenbury,  co. 
Warwick,  had  issue — Roger,  of  Abram,  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717,  but  later  of

2  The  Ryce  (or  Rice)  family  appear  throughout  the  rolls  in  Crosby  and 
Speke.  The  latter  branch  attained  some  position.  The  will  of  Percival  Ryce,  of 
Speke,  was  proved  in  1663,  and  those  of  Margaret  and  James,  of  the  text,  in 
1670.  Percival  Ryce,  of  London,  apothecary,  was  a  non-juror  in  171 7,  and

^His  will  was  proved  in  1671.  The  family  constantly  appears  in  the  rolls. 
Edmund  Tristram,  of  Ince  Blundell,  was  a  non-juror  in  17 17,  and  he  names 
Ruth  Tristram,  John  and  Ellen  Tristram,  deceased,  and  Joseph  and  Anne 
Tristram.  His  dau.  Jane  married  William  Sale,  of  Hopcar  in  Bedford,  her  mar- 
riage covenant  being  dated  April  22,  17 18.  Father  Joseph  Tristram  alias  Cross, 
S.J.,  born  at  Ince  Blundell  in  1766,  died  in  1843.  His  brother  John  Tristram 
alias  Cross,  born  1767,  one  of  a  number  of  priests  educated  by  the  Jesuits  who 
never  joined  the  Society  owing  to  its  temporary  suppression,  died  at  Spinkhill, 
CO.  Derby,  in  1835. 

2  Bridget  Lathom,  widow,  was  mother  of  Richard  Lathom,  of  Aintree, 
surgeon,  whose  wife  Judith  opened  a  school  at  Liverpool,  and  received  a  royal 
mandate  in  its  favour  in  1686  after  she  and  her  husband  had  been  prosecuted 
for  keeping  a  Catholic  school  under  the  penal  laws.  Dr  Lathom  died  in  June, 
1713.  He  had  a  chapel  in  his  house,  which  was  regularly  served. 

3  Thomas  Worthington  would  appear  from  the  text  elsewhere  to  have 
removed  to  Worthington  Hall  in  1668.  According  to  the  Visitation  pedigree 
of  1664,  his  father,  then  aged  sixty-five,  married  Margaret,  dau.  of  John 
Halsey,  of  Altcar.  Thomas  Worthington,  aged  thirty-four  in  1664,  died  at 
Worthington  Hall,  and  his  will  was  proved  in  1670.

proved  in  1661. 

2  The  Molyneux  family  of  The  Wood  in  MeUing  returned  a  very  long  pedigree 
at  the  Visitation  of  1 567,  and  a  short  one  at  that  of  1664.  Thomas  Molyneux,  of 
the  text,  must  have  been  the  fourth  son  of  Robert  Molyneux,  of  The  Wood,  by 
his  second  wife  Ellen,  dau.  of  John  Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall.  His  father  was 
slain  at  the  first  battle  of  Newbury,  Sept.  20,  1643. 

3  He  was  the  seventh  son  of  Thomas  Halsall,  of  Melling,  grandson  of  Sir 
Henry  Halsall,  of  Halsall  Hall. 

*  Thomas  Kay  was  a  glover  in  Warrington,  and  administration  to  his  estate 
was  granted  in  1668.  There  were  several  priests  of  the  family.  Peter  Kaye  was

named  later  in  the  text,  whose  son  Edward  was  baptized  by  the  martyr,  Dom 
Edward  Ambrose  Barlow,  O.S.B.,  Dec.  15,  1639,  and  hence  assumed  the  alias 
of  Barlow  at  Lisbon,  where  he  was  ordained  priest  in  1664,  and  died  at  Park 
Hall  in  1719.  He  was  the  inventor  of  the  repeating  watch.  His  father  died  in

1  Administration  to  the  estate  of  Robert  Kenyon,  of  Lowton,  was  granted  in 
1673.  The  Kenyons  were  an  offshoot  of  the  territorial  family  of  that  name,  and 
constantly  appear  in  the  rolls.  Edward  Kenyon  went  to  Rheims  in  1587,  thence 
was  sent  to  the  school  at  Eu  in  1588,  whence  he  returned  to  Rheims  in  1590, 
received  minor  orders  in  1592,  and  was  transferred  to  the  college  at  Douay  in 
1 593.  In  the  following  year  he  went  to  Valladolid,  where  he  was  ordained  priest, 
and  came  to  the  mission.  He  is  possibly  the  priest  whom  Gee  reported  to  be 
about  London  in  1623.  Two  Benedictine  nuns  of  this  family,  Margaret  and 
Helen,  were  professed  at  Cambray  in  1604,  and  died  respectively  in  1645  and 
1657.  Dom  Thomas  Anselm  Kenyon,  O.S.B.,born  at  Warrington  in  1770,  died 
in  1850.  Edward  Kenyon  arrived  at  Douay  College,  Oct.  13,  1781,  from  Lanca- 
shire, was  ordained  priest  in  1790,  and  was  professor  of  poetry  till  he  left  for 
the  mission,  March  26,  1792,  and  died  in  Liverpool  in  1837. 

^The  Mosse  family  probably  came  from  Skelmersdale,  where  they  were 
recusants  from  the  commencement  of  the  rolls  in  1591.  They  seem  to  have 
settled  in  Stretford  about  this  period.  One  of  them,  Bro.  Joseph  Mosse,  O.S.B., 
born  in  1625,  died  in  1702.  Another,  Peter  Mosse,  married  Catherine,  dau.  of 
Thomas  Middleton,  of  Leighton  Hall,  by  Catherine,  dau.  of  Thomas  Hoghton, 
of  Hoghton  Tower.  She  was  sister  to  Sir  George  Middleton,  of  Leighton  Hall, 
Bart.  It  was  probably  her  grandson,  Peter  Mosse,  who  found  the  money  and 
entered  into  partnership  with  John  Holker,  the  pioneer  if  not  the  originator  of 
cotton  manufacture  in  France.  Both  were  Catholics  and  strong  Jacobites.  In 
1745  they  joined  the  Manchester  Regiment  under  Col.  Francis  Towneley,  Peter 
Mosse  receiving  a  captaincy,  and  John  Holker  a  lieutenancy.  They  were  taken 
prisoners  at  Carlisle,  and  sent  to  Newgate  prison  in  Feb.,  1746.  The  trial  was 
fixed  for  the  following  June  23,  but  the  night  before  they  both  effected  their 
escape.  Captain  Mosse  went  to  Spain,  and  died  there  in  1776,  leaving  all  his 
estate,  with  some  pictures  and  plate,  to  his  grandson,  John  Gartside,of  Crump-

sail  Hall,  whose  father  had  married  the  captain's  only  dau.  In  1776  John 
Gartside  married  Catherine,  dau.  of  Philip  Howard,  of  Corby  Castle.  The 
Gartsides  had  suffered  severely  for  their  loyalty  to  the  Stuarts  in  171 5.  Besides 
his  Stretford  property,  Capt.  Mosse  owned  a  considerable  estate  near  Bolton, 
which  escaped  confiscation  owing  to  his  not  having  been  brought  to  trial.  The 
Holkers  through  some  accident  do  not  appear  in  this  hst,  though  they  were 
always  recusants  and  had  been  settled  at  Monton,  in  the  parish  of  Eccles,  for 
some  generations.  Of  this  family  were,  George  Holker,  who  went  to  Douay 
in  1590,  but  left  on  account  of  his  inability  to  undergo  laborious  study;  and 
Richard  Holker  alias  Nowell,  son  of  Laurence  Holker,  of  Monton,  and  his 
wife,  a  dau.  of  Roger  Nowell,  of  Read  Hall,  who  went  to  the  English  College 
at  Rome  in  1631,  aged  twenty-four.  The  Holkers,  originally  of  Cheshire, 
obtained  an  estate  at  Read  in  1409,  through  the  marriage  of  Richard  Holker 
with  Katherine,  dau.  of  John  del  Holt,  of  Read.  In  the  reign  of  Elizabeth, 
John  Holker,  of  Read,  married  Margaret,  dau.  of  Richard  Towneley  of 
Dutton  Hall.  Richard  Holker,  after  receiving  minor  orders,  had  to  return  home 
on  account  of  his  father's  death  in  1G31.  John  Holker,  the  friend  of  Captain 
Mosse,  after  his  escape  served  in  Flanders,  and  was  engaged  in  various  battles 
and  sieges  till  175 1.  After  the  battle  of  Lanfeld  he  was  presented  with  a  hand- 
some sword  by  Prince  Charles  Edward,  which  is  still  preserved  by  his  descend- 
ants. In  1753  he  patriotically  notified  the  English  Government  of  certain  offers 
made  to  him  by  the  French  Government  in  connexion  with  the  introduction  of 
works  at  Rouen,  and  stated  that  if  his  pardon  was  granted  he  would  forego  the 
great  advantages  offered  to  him.  No  notice,  however,  was  taken  of  the  petition, 
and  therefore,  in  1754,  Holker  accepted  the  offer,  quietly  crossed  to  England, 
and  engaged  twenty-five  hands  in  Manchester  to  instruct  the  French  operatives 
at  Rouen  in  the  English  methods  of  manufacture.  In  1755  he  was  appointed  by 
the  French  Government  to  be  inspector-general  of  foreign  manufactures,  a 
post  which  he  retained  till  his  death,  at  Montigny,  near  Rouen,  April  27,  1786. 
In  1770  he  was  nominated  a  Knight  of  the  Order  of  St  Louis.  His  first  wife, 
Elizabeth,  dau.  of  John  Hulton,  of  Manchester,  to  whom  he  was  married  by  the 
Rev.  Henry  Kendal,  the  priest  at  Manchester,  died  in  Jan.,  1776,  and  was 
buried  in  the  cemetery  attached  to  the  English  Convent  at  Gravelines.  Subse- 
quently he  married  the  widow  of  Jean  Testart.  He  had  a  son  John  (Jean),  who 
became  consul-general  at  Philadelphia,  and  died  at  Springsburg,  Virginia,  in 
1822, and  whose  son,  JeanLouis,  born  April  2, 1770,  died  atParis,  Aug.  18,  1844, 
having  been  head  of  the  chemical  works  at  Rouen,  founded  by  his  grandfather, 
during  the  Empire.  The  latter  was  the  father  of  Henri  Holker,  of  the  French 
Navy,  who  published  pamphlets  on  marine  tactics  and  the  manning  of  the 
Navy  in  1842  and  1846  {vide  Crofton's  Hist,  of  Stretford,  vol.  iii). 

*  Penelope,  fourth  daughter  of  Adam  Byrom,  of  Salford,  by  Helen,  dau.  of

Hall,  fourth  son  of  Ellis  Haye,  of  Monkes  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Eccles,  by 
Alice,  dau.  of  Robert  Holden,  of  Holden  Hall.  Her  brother,  John  Byrom, 
returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  as  did  likewise  her  husband's 
nephew,  Ellis  Haye,  of  Chorlton  Hall,  whose  wife,  Katherine,  was  the  dau.  of 
Thomas  Standish,  of  Duxbury  Hall.

^His  will  was  proved  in  1 671,  and  that  of  a  namesake,  of  the  same  place,  in 
1660. 

"The  will  of  Thomas  Anderton,  of  Horwich,  was  proved  in  1669.  In  1642 
(Preston  Guild)  he  had  sons,  Christopher,  Thomas,  William,  and  Laurence. 
He  was  one  of  the  Andertons  of  the  Lostock  Hall  branch,  and  probably  son 
of  Christopher  Anderton,  of  Horwich,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1629.  He  was 
no  doubt  a  near  relation  of  the  famous  "silver-mouthed"  Anderton,  son  of 
Thomas  Anderton,  of  Horwich,  who  took  his  B.A.  from  Christ's  College, 
Cambridge,  in  1596-7,  subsequently  became  a  secular  priest,  eminent  as  a  con- 
troversialist and  poet  under  the  alias  of /'John  Brereley,  Priest,"  and  finally 
joined  the  Society,  and  passed  on  the  mission  under  the  aliases  of  "John  Hart" 
and  "Scroop."  The  Anderton  pedigrees,  printed  and  in  MS.,  are  all  very  unsatis- 
factory concerning  the  Horwich  branch  of  the  family.  There  were  very  many 
priests  and  nuns  connected  with  the  various  branches,  including  that  of 
Horwich,  and  it  is  difficult  to  identify  them  all. 

2 The  Hon.  Sir  Rowland  Belasyse,  K.B.,  was  the  third  son  of  the  Hon, 
Henry  Belasyse,  M.P,  for  co.  York,  by  Grace,  dau.  and  heiress  of  Sir  Thomas 
Barton,  of  Smithells  Hall,  in  Halliwell.  He  married  Anne,  eldest  dau.  and  sole 
heiress  of  J.  Davenport,  of  Sutton  Hall,  co,  Cheshire,  and  dying  at  Smithells  in 
1699,  was  succeeded  by  his  eldest  son  Thomas,  of  Sutton  Hall,  who  seised  his 
uncle.  Sir  Thomas  Belasyse,  as  third  Viscount  Fauconberg,  of  Yarum,  co.  York, 
in  1700.  The  latter  died  in  1718,  and  three  years  later  the  fine  old  mansion  of 
Smithells  Hall,  with  its  ancient  chapel,  was  sold,  some  funds  being  reserved  for 
the  support  of  the  Catholic  mission  in  the  district. 

*Mary  Standish  may  have  been  the  second  dau.  of  Edward  Standish,  of 
Standish  Hall,  whose  estate  was  probably  under  sequestration  for  recusancy 
at  this  period,  as  his  name  does  not  appear  in  this  list.  He  married  Elizabeth, 
dau.  of  Sir  Francis  Howard,  of  Corby  Castle,  co.  Cumberland,  and  his  son 
William  was  twenty-six  years  of  age  at  the  Visitation  of  1664.  The  Standish 
family  were  always  staunch  recusants,  and  suffered  much  for  their  loyalty. 
William  married  Cecilia,  dau,  and  sole  heiress  of  Sir  Robert  Bindlosse,  of  Ber- 
wick Hall,  Bart.,  and  his  son,  Ralph  Standish,  married  the  Lady  Philippa 
Howard,  dau,  of  Henry,  Duke  of  Norfolk,  Their  son  Ralph  died  without  sur- 
viving issue  in  1735,  when  the  Standish  and  Berwick  Hall  estates  passed  to  his 
sister  Cecilia,  wife  of  William  Towneley,  of  Towneley  Hall.  Through  the 
marriage  of  the  latter's  dau.  Cecilia  with  Charles  Strickland,  of  Sizergh  Castle, 
CO.  Westmoreland,  the  Standish  estates  passed  to  her  son,  Thomas  Strickland, 
who  assumed  the  name  of  Standish,  whose  descendant  is  the  present  lord  of 
Standish.

1  Highfield  House,  in  Aspull,  passed  through  various  offshoots  of  the  Gerards 
of  Bryn  Hall,  but  "Miles"  was  a  distinctive  name  of  the  Gerards  of  Ince  Old 
Hall,  who  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  i6 13,  in  which,  however,  no 
Miles  appears  likely  to  be  living  in  1667.  All  the  printed  Gerard  pedigrees  are  very 
incomplete.  The  Gerards  of  The  Ince,  or  Ince  Old  Hall,  also  registered  along  pedi- 
gree at  the  Visitation  of  1 567,  claiming  descent  from  a  younger  son  of  the  Gerards 
of  Bryn.  William  Gerard,  of  Ince  Old  Hall,  married  Jane,  dau.  of  Sir  Alexander 
Osbaldeston,  of  Osbaldeston  Hall,  by  his  second  wife,  Helen,  dau.  of  Thomas

Mascy  family,  and  elsewhere.  Myles,  the  eldest  son,  according  to  the  161 3 
pedigree,  had  only  one  son,  Thomas,  then  of  the  age  of  twenty-two,who  married 
Ellen,  dau.  of  Edward  Langtree,  of  Langtree  Hall,  and  had  an  only  dau.  and 
heiress  Anne.  He  is  said  to  have  sold  Ince  to  his  kinsman,  Lieutenant-Colonel 
Richard  Gerard,  second  son  of  Sir  Thomas  Gerard,  of  Bryn,  Bart.,  and  he  died 
in  1673.  Colonel  Gerard,  who  was  born  in  October,  161 3,  married  (i)  Frances, 
dau.  of  Sir  Ralph  Hanley,  of  Tickhill  Castle,  co.  York,  by  whom  he  had  a  son, 
who  died  in  infancy,  and  (2)  Judith,  dau.  of  Sir  Nicholas  Stewart,  of  Pateshall, 
CO.  Northampton,  by  whom  he  had  seven  children.  He  took  an  active  part  in 
the  civil  wars,  and  upon  the  restoration  was  sworn  cup-bearer  in  ordinary  to 
the  queen-mother.  He  died  at  Ince,  Sept.  5,  1686.  He  had  issue  by  his  second 
wife — ^Thomas,  bom  May  21,16.  . ,  who  resided  at  Highfield  House,  lord  of  Aspull,

wood  House,  in  Ince,  which  has  since  been  the  seat  of  the  family. 

^  The  Hultons  of  Westhoughton  were  descended  from  a  younger  son  of  the 
Hultons,  of  Hulton  Park,  in  the  same  parish,  who  returned  pedigrees  at  the 
Visitations  of  1567  and  1664.  A  very  long  pedigree  traced  from  the  reign  of 
Henry  II  appears  [in  Foster's  Lancashire  Pedigrees,  1873.  Adam  Hulton,  of 
Hulton  Park,  by  his  wife  Clemence,  dau.  of  Sir  William  Norreys,  of  Speke  Hall, 
was  succeeded,  at  his  death  15  Eliz.  (1572-3),  by  his  son  William,  who  married 
Margaret,  one  of  the  daughters  and  coheiresses  of  Henry  Keighley,  of  Inskip 
Hall,  by  Mary,  dau.  of  Sir  Thomas  Carus,  Judge  of  the  Queen's  Bench.  Her 
eldest  sister  and  coheiress,  Anne,  married  Sir  William  Cavendish,  of  Hardwick 
Hall,  CO.  Derby,  Baron  Cavendish,  ancestor  of  the  Duke  of  Devonshire,  the 
present  lord  of  Inskip.  William  had  issue — Adam,  of  Hulton  Park,  ancestor 
of  the  late  Sir  William  Wilbraham  Blethyn  Hulton,  of  Hulton  Park,  who  was 
created  a  baronet,  and  whose  son  is  the  present  representative  of  the  family; 
William  of  Over  Hulton,  buried  in  1653;  Cuthbert,  of  Over  Hulton,  who 
appears  annually  in  the  recusant  rolls,  with  his  wife  Mary,  between  1591  and 
1635;  Rowland,  of  Westhoughton,  a  recusant  till  death  in  June,  1648;  Henry; 
Elizabeth,  wife  of  Robert  Dalton,  of  Thurnham  Hall;  Katherine,  wife  of 
Assheton  Potter,  of  Croston  and  Over  Hulton;  Martha;  and  Margaret,  vixit 
1624.  Adam,  the  squire,  conformed,  and  henceforward  the  pedigree  records  no 
Catholic  alliances.  The  Hultons  of  the  text  were  probably  sons  or  grandsons  of 
Rowland.  Administration  to  the  estate  of  Adam  Hulton,  of  Westhoughton, 
was  granted  in  1687,  and  the  will  of  William  Hulton,  of  the  same,  was  proved 
in  1672,  and  that  of  Jane  Hulton,  of  Over  Hulton,  widow,  in  1679.

*  George  Martincrofte  subsequently  removed  to  Bedford,  near  Manchester, 
where  he  was  a  recusant,  described  as  "gentleman,"  in  1682-4.  He  was  probably 
the  son  of  Richard  Martincrofte,  of  Manchester,  who,  with  his  wife  Elizabeth, 
appears  in  the  roll  for  1626-7,  and  is  described  as  a  joiner.  In  1634-5  and  later 
years,  Richard  Martincrofte,  of  Manchester,  and  his  wife  Anne  appear,  and  the 
will  of  Richard  Martincrofte,  of  Wickleswick  (now  Trafford  Park),  joiner,  was 
proved  in  1666.  Subsequently  the  family  removed  to  Croft,  in  Winwick,  where 
John  Merry  Martincroft,  of  Croft  House,  died  July  9,  1839,  aged  fifty-nine. 

2  Assheton  Potter,  said  to  be  of  Croston  in  the  Hulton  pedigree,  but  of  Over 
Hulton  in  the  recusant  rolls  between  161 7  and  1630,  married  Katherine,  dau. 
of  William  Hulton,  of  Hulton  Park.  It  is  probable  that  he  belonged  to  the 
recusant  family  seated  at  Ashton  in  Makerfield,  where  Ellen  Potter,  probably 
a  Gerard  of  Bryn,  and  her  son  Gerard  Potter,  were  convicted  of  recusancy,  as 
well  as  Oliver  Potter,  in  1633  seq.  Assheton  Potter's  father  was  probably  Henry 
Potter,  whose  dau.  Margaret  married  first,  John  Lathom,  of  Mosborough  Hall, 
and  second,  Alan  Hulton,  of  Farnworth.  Henry  Potter,  of  the  text,  was 
doubtless  son  of  Assheton  Potter,  and  remained  on  the  rolls  till  his  death  at 
Worsley  in  1681.  John  Potter,  of  Ashton,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1619,  had  a 
dau.,  Emma,  wife  of  John  Chaddock,  of  Chaddock  Hall,  and  a  son,  John  Pot- 
ter, of  Ashton,  administration  to  his  estate  granted  in  1647,  who  married 
Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Alexander  Radcliffe,  of  Leigh.  Henry  Potter's  descendant, 
John  Potter,  of  Manchester,  contributed  largely  to  the  erection  of  the  old 
Catholic  chapel  dedicated  to  St  Chad,  in  Rook  Street,  ^Manchester,  in  1776. 
Religious  controversy  ran  high  at  that  time,  and  prejudices  were  strong.  It  was 
on  this  occasion  that  Mr  Potter  is  said  to  have  written  a  pamphlet  under  the 
ludicrous  title  of  "A  Ball  of  Wax  against  a  Ball  of  Soap." 

^  Administration  to  the  estate  of  Lambert  Scott,  of  Astle3^  was  granted  in 
1688.  His  name  has  apparently  been  omitted  by  the  transcriber.  The  Scotts 
came  from  Pemberton,  where  they  regularly  appear  in  the  rolls  from  1591, 
Gilbert,  Cuthbert,  Ralph,  and  Roger,  being  their  principal  names. 

*The  Jenyons  obtained  Park  Hall  in  Blackrod  from  the  Rogerleys,  who 
returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  161 3,  when  George  Jenyon,  upon  whom 
the  estate  was  entailed,  was  of  the  age  of  four  years.  George  Rogerley,  of 
Lytham,  married  Ellen,  dau.  of  William  Clifton,  of  Westby  Hall.  His  widow 
continued  on  the  rolls  till  her  death  in  1604.  They  had  issue— George  Rogerley, 
of  Park  Hall,  in  Blackrod,  a  staunch  recusant  till  his  death  in  1616;  Richard,  of 
Lytham,  a  recusant  in  1595-6;  Henry,  of  Lytham,  recusant  in  1595-6,  whose 
dau.  Isabel  married  John  Hoghton,  eldest  son  of  Richard  Hoghton,  of  Park 
Hall  in  Chamock  Richard,  and  had  three  daughters  and  coheiresses,  Margaret, 
Mary,  wife  of  Edward  W^orthington,  of  Wharles,  and  Catherine,  wife  of  James 
Holland,  of  Dalton;  and  Katherine,  wife  of  Richard  Tyldesley,  eldest  son  and 
heir  of  Lambert  Tyldesley,  of  Garret  Hall,  lord  of  Tyldesley.  The  eldest  son, 
George  Rogerley,  married  Margaret,  dau.  of  William  Skillicorne,  of  Prees  Hall,

son,  George  Jenyon,  upon  whom  Park  Hall  was  entailed  by  his  grandfather. 
He  was  living  a  recusant  there  with  his  wife  Mary  in  1626-7,  subsequently 
appears  on  the  rolls  with  his  wife  Elizabeth,  and  was  still  a  recusant  in  1679.  He 
had  issue — John  Jenyon,  of  Park  Hall,  who  conveyed  Park  Hall  in  trust  Aug.  11, 

1684,  and  his  widow,  Lucy,  assigned  it,  Nov.  12,  1700,  to  Thomas  Lucas,

that  of  Isabella,  of  the  same,  in  1663.  The  name  also  appears  at  Cantsfield  and 
Whittington.  They  probably  derived  from  Newton  in  Allithwaite. 

1  She  no  doubt  belonged  to  the  Blackburnes  of  Over  Kellet  or  Capenwray, 
who  appear  in  the  rolls  from  1591,  and  were  people  of  position.  Thomas  Black- 
house,  appearing  just  above  in  the  text,  is  clearly  an  error  for  Blackburne. 

*  Vide  later  on,  under  Josias  Morley. 

3  The  Beckbaynes,  of  Gunnerthwaite,  in  the  parish  of  Melling,  were  old 
recusants.  The  wills  of  George,  John,  and  Robert  Beckbayne,  all  of  Gunner- 
thwaite, were  proved  respectively  in  1633,  1715,  and  1727. 

*  Hathornthwaite,  vide  later. 

*  Administration  to  his  estate  was  granted  in  1675. 

•She  was  still  on  the  recusant  rolls  in  1680-4,  when  her  husband,  whose  will 
was  proved  in  1703,  was  described  as  yeoman. 

'  There  were  Catholic  families  of  this  name  both  at"Quernmore  and  Nether 
Wyresdale.  Of  the  latter  family  Edward  has  previously  appeared  in  the  text. 
One  of  that  name  was  a  recusant  there  in  1603,  and  Margaret,  wife  of  Edward, 
in  1626.  The  Quernmore  family  came  from  Caton,  and  all  probably  derived  from 
High  Winder,  in  Melling  parish,  where  the  territorial  family  of  the  name  ended 
in  an  heiress,  who  became  the  wife  of  John  Dowbiggin,  of  Westminster, 
attomey-at-law,  formerly  of  Ewer  Clough,  in  Tatham,  whose  daughter  and 
heiress,  Anne  Winder  Dowbiggin,  of  Winder,  was  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  17 17.

She  married  Thomas  Benison,  of  Hornby,  agent  for  the  Hornby  Castle  estate, 
then  belonging  to  Lord  Morley  and  Monteagle.  In  1730  he  began  to  erect 
Hornby  Hall,  which  was  reared  in  1735.  Upon  his  death  in  1738,  his  daughter, 
Anne,  born  in  1724,  became  sole  heiress  to  the  estate,  and  married  John  Fen- 
wick,  of  Burrow  Hall.  Thomas  Winder  of  the  text  was  probably  one  of  the 
children  of  William  Winder,  of  Quernmore,  and  Alice  his  wife,  who  were  recu- 
sants in  1625-6  with  their  daughter  Barbara.  William  Winder  appears  to  have 
come  from  Caton,  and  his  wife  Alice  was  probably  daughter  of  Peter  Bradley, 
of  Little  Eccleston-cum-Larbreck.  Their  son  Peter  Winder  alias  Bradley  was 
ordained  priest  at  Douay,  and  subsequently  went  to  the  English  College  at 
Lisbon,  whence  he  came  to  the  mission  in  1644,  He  served  the  chapel  at 
Dolphin  Lee,  in  Bulk,  an  estate  belonging  to  the  Daltons  of  Thurnham  Hall, 
and  also  that  at  Quernmore  -Park,  then  belonging  to  the  Prestons  of  The  Manor 
of  Furness.  Previous  to  this  he  is  thought  to  have  served  Robert  Hall,  in  Tat- 
ham,  the  seat  of  the  Cansfields.  In  1682-4  he  lived  in  Quernmore,  and  he  was 
still  alive  and  serving  the  mission  in  1697.  The  will  of  Peter  Winder,  of  Baibrigge, 
was  proved  in  1721,  and  that  of  Edward  Winder,  of  Quernmore,  in  1742. 

1  The  Hathornthwaites  were  very  numerous  in  this  part,  no  doubt  deriving 
from  Hathornthwaite,  one  of  the  twelve  vaccaries  of  Over  Wyresdale.  The  name 
appears  throughout  the  whole  series  of  rolls,  1591  to  1684.  There  were  Hathorn- 
thwaites resident  in  Hathornthwaite,  but  probably  the  principal  family  was  that 
of  the  Demesne  of  the  vaccary  of  Catshaw,  in  the  forest  of  Wyresdale.  This 
family  also  owned  part  of  the  Abbeystead  vaccary.  The  will  of  William  Hathorn- 
thwaite, of  Catshaw  Hall,  was  proved  in  1592.  His  descendant  John  Hathorn- 
thwaite registered  his  entailed  estate  of  Catshaw  as  a  Catholic  non- juror  in 
1 71 7.  He  also  possessed  part  of  the  Abbeystead  and  Calder  vaccaries,  and  pro- 
perty in  Bleasdale  and  other  places.  He  names  his  wife  Phoebe,  but  he  left  no 
issue,  and  his  nephew  and  namesake  became  his  heir.  The  latter,  John  Hathorn- 
thwaite, was  the  only  son  of  William  Hathornthwaite  by  his  wife  Ellen, 
daughter  and  coheiress  of  Richard  Blackburne,  of  Stockenbridge  Hall.  He  died 
unmarried,  his  will  dated  Nov.  26,  1753,  being  proved  May  19,  1766.  He  had 
six  sisters  and  coheiresses — Mary,  wife  of  Richard  Leckonby,  of  Leckonby  House 
in  Great  Eccleston  and  of  Hothersall  Hall,  whose  son  William  Leckonby  inherited 
the  Catshaw  estate ;  Margaret,  wife  of  Robert  Walker,  of  Forton ;  Agnes,  wife  of 
William  Caton,  of  Carr  House,  in  Cabus,  whose  will,  dated  Nov.  7,  was  proved 
Dec.  28,  175 1,  and  that  of  his  widow,  dated  Oct.  15,  1767, proved  Sept.  3, 1772,

Roe,  born  Feb.  i,  1757,  died  at  Black  Ladies,  co.  Stafford,  June  28,  1838. 
Margaret  Walker  had  a  daughter  and  heiress  Elizabeth,  who  married  James 
Smith,  of  Forton,  son  of  William  Smith,  of  Forton,  by  Anne,  daughter  of 
Robert  Haydock,  of  Leach  Hall,  and  they  had  issue — William,  who  died 
unmarried  leaving  his  estate  at  Forton  to  his  second  cousin  William  Smith,  of 
Clock  House,  Lea,  who  married  Jane,  daughter  and  coheiress  of  Robert 
Haydock,  of  Leach  Hall;  and  Margaret,  wife  of  George  Blanchard,  of  Alston, 
whose  son  James  Blanchard,  of  Alston  and  of  Grimsargh  House,  married  Anne 
Teresa,  daughter  of  Richard  Butler,  of  Pleasington  Hall,  and  his  two  daughters,

Another  brother,  Capt.  Matthew  Anderton,  born  162 1 ,  was  also  slain  in  the  same 
cause  at  Sherburn  fight  in  1 642 .  Their  mother,  the  second  wife  of  James  Anderton,

Maryborough,  in  his  behalf  and  that  of  his  brothers  Christopher  and  William 
Anderton  in  1672.  Christopher,  born  at  Clayton  Hall  in  1626,  died  unmarried

of  Clayton  to  Lord  Molyneux,  and  retired  to  Bardsea  Hall,  and  eventually 
the  manor  of  Bardsea  was  purchased  by  Lord  Molyneux  and  was  used  as  a

Hall  in  1682,  whence  she  apparently  removed  to  Aldcliffe,  her  will  being 
proved  in  1708.  Some  of  the  sisters  were  probably  nuns.  The  Andertons  of 
Clayton  were  descended  from  the  Andertons  of  Anderton  and  Horwich,  the 
first  to  acquire  the  manor  of  Clayton  being  Hugh  Anderton,  of  Euxton  Hall, 
who  was  twice  married,  (i)  to  Grace,  daughter  and  coheiiess  of  John  Butler, 
of  Rawcliffe  Hall,  by  whom  he  had  a  son  James,  aged  twenty-four  at  the  death 
of  his  father  in  1566,  and  on  whom  he  settled  Clayton,  and  (2)  to  Alice,  daughter 
of  Alexander  Standish,  of  Standish  Hall,  by  whom  he  had — ^William,  on  whom 
he  settled  Euxton  Hall,  where  his  descendants  are  still  seated;  Dorothy,  wife 
of  Edward  Rigby,  of  Burgh  Hall;  Jane,  spinster;  Anne,  wife  of  William 
Hesketh,  of  Maynes  Hall  and  Little  Poulton  Hall;  and  probably  another  son 
Robert,  ordained  priest  at  Rheims  in  1584,  who  was  martyred  in  the  Isle  of 
Wight,  April  25,  1586.  James  Anderton,  the  eldest  son  of  Hugh,  was  entered  at 
Gray's  Inn  in  1562.  His  wife,  Elizabeth,  daughter  and  heir  of  Richard  Elston, 
of  Elston  Hall  and  Higher  Brockholes  Hall,  married  secondly  Ralph  Holden, 
of  Holden  Hall,  and  thirdly  Nicholas  Banastre,  of  Altham  Hall,  and  died  in 
Dec,  161 1.  They  had  issue — James,  lord  of  Clayton,  who  v/as  admitted  to 
Gray's  Inn,  May  14,  1593,  was  a  staunch  recusant,  and  died  in  1614;  Hugh, 
bom  1579,  admitted  to  Gray's  Inn,  March  10,  1592-3,  having  been  previously 
at  Oxford,  and  after  studying  at  Gray's  Inn  for  six  years  went  to  the  English 
College  at  Rome,  where  he  was  admitted  under  the  alias  of  Henry  Courtney  in 
1600,  received  minor  orders,  but  died  before  he  was  ordained  priest  in  1603,  aged 
about  twenty -five;  Thurstan,  late  of  Barnard's  Inn,  was  admitted  to  Gray's  Inn 
Feb.  5,  1600,  was  a  recusant  at  Clayton  Hall,  1603-1625;  William,  late  of 
Barnard's  Inn,  was  admitted  to  Gray's  Inn  Feb.  2,  1587-8;  Dorothy,  wife  of 
Thomas  Woodcock,  of  Leyland,  and  mother  of  Fr  John  Woodcock,  O.S.F., 
the  martyr;  and  another  daughter  whose  name  does  not  appear.  The  eldest  son, 
the  second  James,  married  Dorothy,  daughter  of  Sir  Richard  Assheton,  of 
Middleton  Hall,  by  his  first  wife  Mary,  daughter  of  Sir  John  Byrom,  of  Clayton 
Hall,  and  had  issue — James,  the  third  of  his  name,  lord  of  Clayton,  who

tunately  has  a  great  many  omissions,  was  at  Clayton  Hall  in  1676,  assisted  the 
mission  at  Stayning  Hall,  died  at  Clayton  Hall,  and  was  buried  at  Leyland 
Augt  29,  1683 ;  and  Matthew,  a  captain  in  the  royal  army,  was  slain  at  Sheriff 
Hutton  in  1642.  James  Anderton,  the  eldest  son,  suffered  greatly  for  his  loyalty 
and  recusancy,  sold  to  many  of  his  tenants  their  own  holdings,  and  mortgaged 
the  lordship  to  the  Dicconsons  of  Wrightington  Hall.  The  subsequent  history 
of  the  family  has  already  been  related.  It  is  possible  that  there  were  other 
priests,  besides  nuns,  of  this  branch  of  the  Anderton  family,  as  several  of  the 
name  have  not  been  otherwise  assigned. 

^  Thomas  Duckett  was  a  cadet  of  the  ancient  family  of  Duckett  of  Grayrigg 
Hall,  CO.  Westmoreland.  He  is  probably  identical  with  Thomas  Duckett,  of 
Winder,  in  Cartmel,  to  whose  estate  administration  was  granted  in  1670.  His 
widow.  Jennet,  was  a  recusant  at  Ashton-cum-Stodday  in  1680,  as  well  as 
James  Duckett,  gent.  Apparently  there  were  three  Ducketts  bearing  the  name 
of  James  in  1680,  the  other  two  being  James  Duckett,  of  Holker,  gent.,  iden- 
tical with  the  one  described  as  "husbandman"  in  the  text,  and  James  Duckett, 
of  Cartmel.  James  Duckett,  of  Grayrigg  Hall,  a  recusant  in  1667,  returned  a 
pedigree  of  sixteen  generations  at  the  Visitation  of  Westmoreland  in  1664, 
being  then  fifty  years  of  age.  He  was  the  son  of  Anthony  Duckett,  by  Eliza- 
beth, daughter  of  William  Leyburne,  of  Cunswick  Hall,  co.  Westmoreland,  and 
grandson  of  Sir  Francis  Duckett,  of  Grayrigg,  by  Marion,  daughter  of  Alan 
Bellingham,  of  Helsington  Hall,  co.  Westmoreland.  James  Duckett  was  thrice 
married,  (i)  to  Magdalen,  daughter  of  Sir  Henry  Curwen,  of  Workington  Hall, 
CO.  Cumberland,  by  whom  he  had  Anthony,  and  Margaret,  wife  of  John 
Girlington,  of  Thurland  Castle,  co.  Lancaster;  (2)  to  Mary,  daughter  of  William 
Sanders,  of  Sutton  Court,  co.  Middlesex,  by  whom  he  had  William,  Richard, 
Elizabeth,  and  Bridget;  and  (3)  to  Ehzabeth,  daughter  of  Christopher  Walker, 
of  Workington,  co.  Cumberland,  by  whom  he  had  Thomas,  John,  who  appa- 
rently is  identical  with  the  one  of  his  name  of  Lancaster  whose  wiJl  was  proved  in 
1742,  Marion,  Ellen,  and  Anne,  of  Dalton,  spr,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1703. 
Anthony,  the  eldest  son  by  the  first  wife,  aged  twenty-eight  in  1664,  married 
Elizabeth,  daughter  of  John  Dalston,  of  Acornbank  Hall,  co.  Cumberland.  He 
sold  the  manors  of  Grayrigg  and  Docker  to  the  Lowthers  in  1690.  There  were  a 
number  of  priests  of  the  family  not  named  in  the  pedigree.  James  Duckett,  of 
Gilltwait  Rigg  (will  proved  1565),  second  son  of  Richard  Duckett,  of  Grayrigg 
Hall,  by  Agnes,  daughter  of  John  fileming,  of  Rydal  Hall,  was  father  of  Richard 
Duckett,  of  Gilfortriggs,  in  Skelsmergh,  whose  son  James  went  to  London  and 
after  suffering  imprisonment  for  his  faith  in  Bridewell  and  the  Compter  prison 
in  Wood  Street,  and  subsequently  passing  nine  years  in  gaol  in  the  same  cause 
out  of  his  married  life  of  twelve  years,  finally  was  tried  and  sentenced  to  death 
for  privately  publishing  Catholic  books,  his  martyrdom  being  at  Tyburn, 
April  19,  1601.  His  second  son,  Fr  John  Duckett,  matriculated  at  the  university 
of  Douay  in  1607,  was  ordained  priest  at  Douay  College  in  161 5,  was  many 
years  procurator,  and  finally  left  the  college  on  April  6,  1628,  to  become  a 
Carthusian  at  the  English  monastery  at  Nieuport,  where  he  was  clothed  on 
April  15,  and  in  1644  became  ninth  prior,  in  which  office  he  died  Augt  21,  1647. 
Another  John,  born  in  161 3,  third  son  of  James  Duckett,  and  his  wife  Frances, 
daughter  of  John  Girlington,  of  Thurland  Castle,  co.  Lancaster,  by  Christian, 
daughter  of  Sir  William  Babthorpe,  of  Babthorpe  Hall,  co.  York,  was  ordained 
priest  at  Douay  in  1639,  then  spent  three  years  at  Arras  College  in  Paris,  and 
coming  to  the  mission  at  Durham,  was  apprehended,  sent  to  London,  tried  and 
condemned  to  death  for  being  a  priest,  and  was  martyred  at  Tyburn  Sept.  7, 
1644.  James  Duckett,  ordained  priest  at  Douay  in  1623,  came  to  England  in 
1624,  and  was  still  serving  the  mission  in  Westmoreland,  probably  at  Skels- 
mergh Hall,  a  seat  of  his  relatives,  the  Leyburnes,  in  1632.  Another  John 
Duckett  was  admitted  into  the  English  College  at  Valladolid  in  1652,  and  after

1  In  1 567  the  Tarbocks,  of  Tarbock  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Huyton,  returned 
a  pedigree  of  fifteen  generations,  ending  with  Sir  Edward  Tarbock,  who  was 
knighted  by  James  I  at  Whitehall  Nov.  i,  1606.  Sir  Edward  married  Margaret, 
daughter  and  heiress  of  Sir  William  Norreys,  of  Speke  Hall,  and  had  sons 
Edward  and  George,  who  joined  with  him  in  the  sale  of  the  manor  of  Tarbock. 
William  Tarbock,  of  the  text,  was  probably  son  of  Edward,  and  his  will  was 
proved  in  1689,  and  that  of  his  son  Edward,  also  of  Holker,  in  1720.  The  Tar- 
bocks were  a  knightly  race,  lamentably  reduced  in  circumstances. 

'The  Buskells  were  old  recusants.  The  will  of  EllenBuskell,  of  Park  House, 
in  Dal  ton,  was  proved  in  1696. 

'Oliver  Tootell  is  probably  identical  with  the  "gentleman"  of  his  name, 
of  Lower  Healey  Hall,  near  Chorley,  who  died  May  5,  1698,  his  widow,  Jane, 
daughter  of  Francis  Trappes-Byrnand,  of  Nidd  Hall,  co.  York,  being  a  Catholic 
non-juror  in  171 7,  and  then  resident  at  Arundel  Castle,  co.  Sussex.  The  family 
unfortunately  did  not  return  a  pedigree  at  any  of  the  Visitations,  though  they 
had  been  the  manorial  lords  of  Lower  Healey  for  a  long  period.  Hugh  Tootell, 
of  Lower  Healey  Hall,  married  Alice,  daughter  of  Thomas  Anderton,  of  Horwich 
Hall,  sister  of  the  eminent  "silver-mouthed  Anderton,"  Fr  Laurence  Anderton, 
S.J.,  alias  "John  Brereley,  Priest."  William  Tootell,  of  Lower  Healey  Hall, 
married  Elizabeth,  daughter  of  John  Gillibrand,  of  Chorley  Hall,  subsequently 
known  as  Gillibrand  Hall,  and  his  daughter  Catherine,  married  Ralph  Critch- 
low,  senior,  of  Charnock  Richard.  Jane,  daughter  of  Oliver  Tootell,  married 
Laurence  Wall,  of  Moor  Hall,  Preston.  Bro.  Oliver  John  Tootell,  O.S.B.,  pro- 
fessed at  Dieulward  in  1625,  died  before  his  ordination,  Jan.  8,  1626.  Christopher 
Tootell,  priest,  was  serving  the  mission  in  Lancashire  in  1632.  Thomas 
Tootell,  priest,  is  said  to  have  been  at  Bryn  Hall  in  1663.  Oliver,  John,  Edward, 
and  Hugh  Tootell  were  recusants  at  Lower  Healey  in  1682-4.  Christopher  Tootell 
alias  Blacoe,  ordained  at  Lisbon  in  1685,  died  at  Ladywell,  Fernyhalgh  in  1727. 
His  nephew  Hugh  Tootell  alias  Hesketh,  priest,  probably  son  of  Hugh  Tootell 
and  his  wife  Elizabeth  Hesketh,  of  the  White  Hill  family,  born  in  167 1 ,  and  died 
Feb.  27,  1742-3,  is  better  known  as  "Charles  Dodd,"  the  Church  historian.  His 
kinsmen,  Fr  William  John  Evangelist  Tootell,  O.S.F.,  and  Fr  Charles  Tootell, 
O.S.F.,  were  in  turn  at  White  Hill,  and  died  respectively  Oct.  13,  1758,  aged 
eighty-one,  and  in  177 1,  the  latter  being  the  former's  nephew. 

*The  Prestons  appear  in  the  rolls  from  the  commencement.  They  were 
originally  seated  at  Preston  Richard  and  Preston  Patrick  in  Westmoreland, 
subsequently  resided  at  Under  Levens  Hall,  and  soon  after  the  dissolution  of 
the  monasteries  Sir  Thomas  Preston  purchased  Furness  Abbey,  in  Dalton,  and 
other  extensive  estates,  including  Holker  Park,  in  Cartmel.  By  Anne,  daughter 
of  William  Thornburgh,  of  Hampsfield  Hall,  Sir  Thomas  had  issue — John,  his 
heir,  born  1 5 1 1 ;  Christopher,  on  whom  he  settled  Holker  Hall,  and  from  whom 
the  Prestons  of  Holker  descended;  George,  o.s.p.;  Anne,  wife  of  William 
Banastre,  of  Easington  Hall,  in  Bolland,  co.  York;  Ellen,  (i)  wife  of  Sir  James 
Leyburne,  of  Cunswick  Park,  co.  Westmoreland  (by  whom  she  had  Elizabeth,

of  whose  daughters  and  coheiresses  married  William  Cavendish,  first  Earl  of 
Devonshire,  ancestor  of  the  Dukes  of  Devonshire,  who  eventually  became  pos- 
sessed of  the  vast  estates  of  the  Prestons.  Sir  Thomas  Preston  died  in  1523,  and 
was  succeeded  by  his  son  John,  who  made  his  principal  residence  at  the  Abbey 
of  Furness,  in  a  manor-house  which  he  erected  on  the  north  of  the  precincts, 
his  family  thenceforth  being  termed  of  the  Manor.  He  was  sheriff  of  Lancashire 
in  1569,  and  M.P.  for  Lancaster  1592-3.  He  married  (i),  Ellen,  daughter  of  Sir 
Christopher  Curwen,  of  Workington  Hall,  co.  Cumberland,  by  whom  he  had 
issue  as  hereafter,  and  (2)  Dorothy,  daughter  of  Sir  Bryan  Layton,  of  Dalemain 
Hall,  CO.  Cumberland,  and  relict  of  Richard  Redman,  of  Harewood  Castle,  co. 
York,  by  whom  he  had  no  issue.  By  his  first  wife  he  had — Thomas ;  Nicholas, 
a  lawyer,  o.s.p.;  John,  of  Ellel  Grange,  in  Cockerham,  whose  descendants 
appear  later  in  the  text ;  and  Margaret,  wife  of  Roger  Kirkby,  of  Kirkby  Ireleth 
Hall.  Thomas,  the  eldest  son,  sheriff  of  Lancashire  in  1585,  married  Anne, 
daughter  of  John  Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall,  and  dying  May  14,  1604,  had 
issue — John,  who  with  his  father  appears  in  the  recusant  rolls  from  1591  till  his 
death  March  27,  1643;  Francis,  of  Dalton,  who  was  a  recusant  with  his  sons 
Thomas  and  John  in  1620;  and  Thomas,  a  recusant  in  162 1.  John,  the  eldest 
son,  married  Frances,  daughter  and  coheiress  of  Richard  Holland,  of  Denton 
Hall,  by  Margaret,  daughter  and  coheiress  of  Sir  Robert  Langley,  of  Agecroft 
Hall,  and  both  he  and  his  wife  appear  in  the  rolls  as  early  as  16 17.  They  had 
issue — Thomas,  died  young;  John,  born  161 7,  who  succeeded  to  the  estates; 
Anne,  died  young ;  Margaret,  wife  of  Sir  Francis  Howard,  of  Corby  Castle,  co. 
Cumberland,  second  son  of  Lord  William  Howard,  "Belted  Will,"  of  Na worth 
Castle;  Agnes,  wife  of  Christopher  Anderton,  of  Lostock  Hall,  the  marriage 
being  commemorated  by  a  poem  by  his  kinsman  Fr  Laurence  Anderton,  S.J., 
alias  "John  Brereley,  Priest" ;  and  Frances,  wife  of  Francis  Downes,  of  Wardley 
Hall,  who  died  March  25,  1642-3.  The  only  surviving  son,  John,  took  an  active 
part  in  the  Royal  cause  upon  the  breaking  out  of  the  civil  wars,  and  was 
created  a  baronet,  April  i,  1644.  He  raised  a  regiment  at  his  own  expense,  and 
received  a  wound  in  an  engagement  in  Furness  of  which  he  died  in  1645.  He 
married  in  1637  Jane,  daughter  and  sole  heiress  of  Thomas  Morgan,  of  Hey  ford 
Hall,  CO.  Northampton,  and  of  Weston-sub-Weathley,  co,  Warwick,  and  by  her, 
who  brought  him  a  vast  estate,  had  issue — Sir  John,  second  Bart,  who  died 
unmarried  in  April,  1661 ;  Thomas,  ob.  infans;  Sir  Thomas,  third  Bart,  born 
1643;  Jane,  ob.  infans;  Anne,  wife  of  Sir  William  Gerard,  of  Bryn  Hall,  Bart; 
and  Elizabeth,  wife  of  William,  eleventh  Lord  Stourton.  Sir  Thomas,  third 
Bart,  of  the  Manor -in  Furness,  Preston  Patrick  and  Under  Levens  Hall,  in 
Westmoreland,  and  Heyford  Hall,  co,  Northampton  was  twice  (married,  (i)  to 
Elizabeth,  daughter  of  Mons,  Peter  de  Planzye,  of  France,  by  whom  he  had 
no  issue,  and  (2)  to  the  Hon.  Mary  Molyneux,  daughter  of  Caryll,  third  Viscount 
Molyneux  of  Maryborough,  by  whom  he  had  issue — Francis,  obiit  infans,  1672; 
Mary,  wife  of  William,  Lord  Herbert,  second  Marquis  of  Powis;  and  Anne, 
wife  of  Hugh,  second  Lord  Clifford  of  Chudleigh.  Lady  Preston  died  June  6, 
1673,  whereupon  Sir  Thomas  decided  to  renounce  the  world  and  embrace  a 
religious  life.  He  entered  the  Society  of  Jesus  at  Watten  June  28,  1674,  under 
the  alias  of  Saville,  but  having  scruples  regarding  holy  orders,  owing  to  his 
having  been  twice  married,  he  declined  to  be  ordained  priest,  though  he  had 
received  a  special  dispensation,  and  he  died  at  Watten,  a  formed-scholastic. 
May  27,  1709,  aged  sixty-six.  Administration  to  his  estate  was  granted  in 
1 7 10.  When  Sir  Thomas  went  to  join  the  Jesuits,  he  settled  his  Westmoreland 
and  Northamptonshire  estates  upon  his  two  daughters  and  coheiresses,  and 
the  Manor  and  Abbey  of  Furness  was  presumably  to  revert  to  his  kinsmen,  the 
Prestons  of  Ellel  Grange,  with  the  exception  of  three  small  farms  which  were 
given  as  the  foundation  of  a  novitiate  for  the  English  Pro\'ince  S.J.,  but  that

being  impracticable,  the  income  was  for  many  years  devoted  to  the  mission 
supplying  Furness,  a  sum  of  ;^  1,5  00  being  eventually  expended  upon  the 
chapel  and  presbytery  at  Ulverston.  It  was  then  that  Thomas  Preston,  of 
Holker  Hall,  who  had  hitherto  been  a  recusant  like  all  his  family,  apostatized 
with  the  idea  of  obtaining  the  estates,  and  undertook  to  prove  that  Sir  Thomas 
had  settled  the  Furness  estates  on  the  Jesuits,  and  that  therefore  they  were 
forfeited  to  the  crown.  In  this  after  some  years  of  litigation  he  was  success- 
ful, and  the  estates  were  seized  by  the  Government.  The  next  heirs,  the 
Prestons  of  Ellel  Grange,  in  Cockerham,  were  staunch  Catholics,  and  hence 
they  had  but  little  chance  of  establishing  their  claim,  upon  which  the  apostate 
relied.  He  had  considerable  interest  in  high  quarters,  and  his  services  having 
been  duly  represented,  he  obtained  from  the  crown  a  long  lease  of  the  whole 
estate  upon  the  most  advantageous  terms.  He  subsequently  represented 
Lancaster  in  Parliament.  lie  died  Jan.  31,  1696,  in  London,  but  was  buried  at 
Cartmel  Priory.  He  married  first,  Mary,  daughter  of  George  Dodding,  of 
Conishead  Priory,  by  whom  he  had  no  issue,  and  secondly,  Elizabeth,  daughter 
of  Sir  Roger  Bradshaigh,  of  Haigh  Hall,  Bart,  by  whom  he  had  an  only 
daughter  and  sole  heiress,  Katherine,  who  married  Sir  William  Lowther,  Bart,  of 
Marske  Hall,  co.  York.  They  had  issue  Sir  Thomas  Lowther,  Bart,  who  married 
in  July,  1723,  Lady  Elizabeth  Cavendish,  daughter  of  William,  second  Duke 
of  Devonshire,  by  whom  he  had  issue  Sir  William  Lowther,  third  and  last 
baronet,  who,  dying  unmarried  in  1753,  devised  the  Furness  Abbey  and  Holker 
Hall  estates  to  his  cousin,  Lord  George  Augustus  Cavendish,  after  whose  death 
in  1 794  the  estates  passed  to  the  Duke  of  Devonshire  and  the  Earl  of  Burlington. 

1  Administration  to  the  estate  of  Robert  Lacy,  of  Newbarnes,  in  the  parish 
of  Dalton,  was  granted  in  1680.  In  the  same  year  John  Lacy,  of  Dalton,  gent., 
appears  as  a  recusant.  Robert  Lacy  was  probably  a  son  of  Thomas  Lacy,  of 
Cromwellbotham  Hall,  co.  York  (by  Anne,  daughter  of  Roger  Winckley,  of 
Winckley  Hall),  who  sold  that  estate  and  other  possessions,  and  settled  at 
Longworth  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Bolton,  co.  Lancaster,  which  he  purchased 
from  the  Longworths.  The  family  returned  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of 
Yorkshire  in  1585  and  161 2  and  at  that  of  Lancashire  in  1664.  Thomas  Lacy's 
son  and  namesake,  aged  thirty-six  in  1664,  resided  at  Longworth  Hall,  and  by 
Anne,  his  wife,  daughter  of  Adam  Hulton,  of  Hulton  Park,  had  issue — Roger, 
aged  nine  in  1664,  who  was  living  at  Hacking  Hall  (on  the  opposite  bank  of  the 
Ribble  to  Winckley  Hall),  belonging  to  the  Walmesleys  of  Dunkenhalgh,  to 
whom  he  was  probably  steward,  in  1688  and  1705,  at  which  latter  date  he  had 
a  son  and  namesake  baptized  at  Great  Harwood;  Thomas,  aged  six;  Adam, 
aged  four;  John,  aged  two;  Anne,  aged  twelve;  and  a  daughter  called  Hulton, 
aged  eleven,  all  in  1664.  Latterly  the  Lacys  were  evidently  estate  agents  or 
stewards  to  large  estates,  Robert  probably  being  for  that  of  the  Prestons.  It  is 
likely  that  John,  the  son  of  Thomas,  is  identical  with  John  Lacy,  of  Harms- 
worth,  in  the  parish  of  Alresford,  co.  Southampton,  a  Catholic  non-juror  in 
1 717.  Henry  Lacy,  of  London,  by  his  wife  Mary  Elston,  probably  a  daughter 
of  Robert  Elston,  of  Higher  Brockholes  Hall,  was  the  father  of  Francis  Lacy 
alias  Elston,  who  was  ordained  priest  at  Rome  in  17 10  or  171 1,  and  served  the 
mission  in  London  till  his  death,  when  he  was  senior  capitular,  Dec.  3,  1774, 
in  his  ninetieth  year.  Margaret  and  Jane  Lacy,  sisters,  of  Harmsworth,  were 
non-jurors  in  1717,  the  former's  will,  dated  July  19,  1740,  being  proved  Dec.  4, 
1 746.  They  were  aunts  of  Henry  Lacy  (who  died  shortly  before  the  probate  of 
his  aunt  Margaret's  will),  steward  to  Lord  Arundell,  at  W^ardour  Castle,  co. 
Wilts,  Thomas  Lacy,  Margaret  Lacy,  of  Winchester,  and  William  Lacy  (who  by 
his  wife  Margaret,  a  widow  in  1758,  had  two  daughters  Frances  and  Margaret). 

2  The  Knipes.of  Rampside  Hall,  were  an  ancient  family,  and  appear  in  the 
rolls  from  the  commencement.  Thomas  Knipe  and  Jane  his  wife  were  recusants 
in  1616  seq.,  and  Thomas  Knipe  and  his  wife  Isabella  in  1634.  John  Knipe, 
of  Rampside  Hall,  and  Jane  his  wife  appear  in  1634  seq.  He  was  a  captain  in 
the  royal  army,  and  was  slain  at  Brindle,  Augt  23,  165 1.  His  son  James  Knipe,

Leigh,  CO.  Westmoreland.  The  will  of  James  was  proved  in  1694,  and  that  of 
Susan  in  1676.  Their  kinsmen,  the  Knipes  of  Wood  Broughton,  in  the  parish  of 
Cartmel,  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664. 

^  Administration  to  the  estate  of  John  Kirkby,  of  Leighton,  in  the  parish  of 
Warton,  was  granted  in  1701.  He  appears  on  the  rolls  for  1680-4  as  of  Silver- 
dale  and  of  Yealand,  is  described  as  "gentleman,"  and  was  apparently  steward 
to  Sir  George  Middleton,  Bart,  of  Leighton  Hall.  He  was  the  second  son  of 
Roger  Kirkby,  of  Kirkby  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Kirkby  Ireleth,  by  Agnes, 
daughter  of  Sir  John  Lowther,  of  Lowther  Castle,  co,  Westmoreland.  The 
Kirkbys  returned  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of  161 3  and  166^  and  also  at  the 
Visitations  of  Cumberland  in  1530,  and  of  Yorkshire  in  1563  and  1584.  They 
were  descended  from  Roger  de  Kirkby,  lord  of  Kirkby,  temp.  Ric.  I.  Seven 
generations  later.  Sir  Richard  de  Kirkby,  by  his  wife  Isabel,  had  issue — Sir

land (by  Jane,  daughter  of  Sir  Hugh  Lowther,  of  Lowther  Castle,  co.  West 
moreland),  had  a  son  John,  who  died  $  Edw.  VI,  aged  eight,  and  a  daughter

CO.  Westmoreland;  John,  of  Coniston  Hall,  who  died  in  1680;  Alice,  wife  of 
William  Fleming,  of  Rydal  Hall,  co.  Westmoreland;  and  Margaret,  wife  of 
Hugh  Anderton,  of  Euxton  Hall.  Roger  died  in  Ireland  in  Augt,  1643,  probably 
in  the  royal  cause,  aged  thirty,  and  his  children  were  brought  up  Protestants 
by  his  wife.  One  of  them,  however,  Agnes,  became  the  wife  of  Hugh  Diccon- 
son,  of  Wrightington  Hall,  and  she  was  living  at  Culcheth,  a  Catholic  non- 
juror in  17 17.  The  Kirkbys  continued  to  reside  at  Kirkby  Hall  till  it  was  seized 
by  the  mortgagees  of  Col.  Roger  Kirkby,  early  in  the  eighteenth  century.  A 
branch  of  the  family,  however,  continued  to  own  Ashlack,  in  Kirkby  Ireleth, 
for  another  century.  Kirkby  Hall  was  a  low  strong  building  of  dark  red  stone, 
in  the  Tudor  style,  and  an  upper  room  served  as  the  chapel,  with  a  small 
sacristy  leading  out  of  it,  whence  access  was  obtained  to  a  secret  hiding-place. 
The  junior  branch  settled  at  Up  Rawcliffe  Hall,  or  as  it  was  afterwards  called 
White  Hall,  retained  the  faith  till  the  family  was  entirely  wiped  out  through 
its  loyalty  during  the  civil  wars.  John,  the  founder  of  this  family,  through  his 
marriage  with  the  heiress  of  the  tjrswicks,  was  succeeded  by  his  son  William, 
of  Up  Rawcliffe  Hall,  who  by  his  wife  Isabel,  daughter  of  Sir  Roger  Belling- 
ham,  of  Bellingham  Hall,  co.  Westmoreland,  had  issue — John,  who  married 
(i)  Clemence,  daughter  of  Sir  John  Pudsey,  of  Arnforth  Hall,  co.  York,  and  (2) 
Elizabeth,  daughter  of  Sir  Thomas  Broughton,  of  Broughton  Tower,  in  Kirkby 
Ireleth;  Isabel,  wife  of  Gilbert  Barton,  of  Barton  Hall;  and  Margaret,  wife  of 
Richard  Banastre,  of  Bank  Hall.  By  his  first  wife  John  had  issue — William, 
born  about  i  Hen.  VII  (1485-6),  married,  22  Hen.  VII  (1506-7),  Elizabeth, 
daughter  of  William  Thornburgh,  of  Hampsfield  Hall;  Eleanor,  wife  of  John 
Westby,  of  Mowbreck  Hall ;  and  Anne,  wife  of  William  Thwaites,  of  Thwaites 
Hall,  CO.  Westmoreland.  William  had  issue — John,  o.s.p.;  George,  who  married 
Helen,  daughter  of  Thomas  Rigmayden,  of  Wedacre  Hall,  by  Jane,  daughter 
of  Sir  Thomas  Langton,  baron  of  Newton,  but  o.s.p.,  Augt  13,  1558,  and  his 
widow  married  Edward  Horsfall;  William,  of  Up  Rawcliffe  Hall,  who  returned 
a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1567,  and  whose  will  was  proved  in  1594; 
Richard,  vixit  1576;  Henry,  of  Lewth,  in  Woodplumpton ;  Anne,  married  (i)  to

Dorothy,  wife  of  William  Burrowe,  of  Lubeck.  William,  the  third  son,  who 
succeeded  his  brother  George  to  Up  Rawcliffe,  married  (i)  Isabel,  daughter 
of  John  Butler,  of  Kirkland  Hall,  by  Elizabeth,  daughter  of  Thomas  ffarington, 
of  Farington  Hall,  by  whom  he  had  no  issue,  and  (2)  Isabel,  daughter  of 
William  Normanville,  of  St  Mawes,  co.  York  (who  married  secondly  Gabriel 
Crofte,  of  Claughton  Hall),  by  whom  he  had — ^William,  whose  name  appears 
on  the  recusant  rolls  till  1633;  Edward,  of  Up  Rawcliffe,  recusant  161 3  seq.; 
John;  George;  Dorothy,  wife  of  John  Harrison;  Isabel,  wife  of  Robert  White, 
of  Cross  House,  in  Great  Eccleston;  and  Anne.  William,  the  eldest  son,  of 
Up  Rawcliffe  Hall,  married  Jane,  daughter  of  Thomas  ffieetwood,  of 
Calwich  Hall,  co.  Stafford,  baron  of  Newton,  co.  Lancaster,  by  Mary, 
daughter  of  Sir  Richard  Sherburne,  of  Stonyhurst.  Her  brother  Sir 
Richard  ffieetwood  was  created  a  baronet  in  161 1.  They  had  issue  a  son, 
Thomas  Kirkby,  a  staunch  recusant  throughout  his  life,  who  married  Anne, 
daughter  of  John  Langtree,  brother  of  Edward  Langtree,  of  Langtree  Hall,  and 
had  issue — William,  born  1621,  became  a  gentleman  volunteer  in  the  royal 
army,  and  lost  his  life  in  the  cause ;  Thomas,  an  officer  in  the  royal  army,  slain 
in  Lancashire;  Edward,  also  a  gentleman  volunteer,  and  slain  in  the  same  cause 
about  1643;  Isabel;  and  Anne.  The  father,  Thomas  Kirkby,  sold  the  manor 
of  Upper  Rawcliffe  to  the  Westbys  of  Mowbreck  Hall,  and  retired  to  Great 
Eccleston,  where  he  died  about  166 1-2.  The  purchaser,  George  Westby,  a  major 
in  the  royal  army,  suffered  much  for  his  recusancy  and  loyalty  and  had  his 
estates  forfeited  and  sold  by  the  Parliamentary  party  in  165  3,  though  Upper  Raw- 
cHffe  was  bought  in  for  him  by  his  friends.  He  rebuilt  the  old  hall  of  the  Kirkbys,

which  contained  a  domestic  chapel,  and  in  which  Mass  had  been  long  said, 
and  which  was  continued  in  the  new  one  throughout  the  days  of  persecution. 
The  Westbys  changed  the  name  from  Upper  Rawchffe  Hall  to  White  Hall,  the 
better  to  distinguish  it  from  Rawclifie  Hall,  the  seat  of  the  Butlers. 

1  The  Middletons,  of  Leighton  Hall,  were  descended  from  a  younger  son  of 
the  Middletons,  of  Middleton  Hall,  co.  Westmoreland,  and  returned  pedigrees 
at  the  various  Visitations  of  Westmoreland  and  Lancashire.  Sir  Geoffrey 
Middleton,  third  son  of  John  de  Middleton,  of  Middleton  Hall,  married  Alison, 
dau.  and  coheiress  of  James  Crofte,  of  Dalton,  in  Furness,  whose  ancestor, 
Robert  Crofte,  had  obtained  Leighton  Conyers  through  his  marriage  with 
Isolda,  dau.  and  heiress  of  Robert  Conyers,  whose  wife  was  Alice,  dau.  and 
heiress  of  Adam  de  Redmayne,  of  Leighton  Hall,  and  his  wife  Ellen,  dau.  and 
heiress  of  Adam  de  Avranches,  of  Leighton.  Sir  George  Middleton,  son  and  heir 
of  Thomas  Middleton,  and  his  wife  Catherine,  dau.  of  Thomas  Hoghton,  of 
Hoghton  Tower,  and  sister  of  Sir  Richard  Hoghton,  Bart,  who  appears  in 
earlier  recusant  rolls,  was  a  brave  and  active  colonel  of  royalists  during  the 
civil  wars,  and  was  knighted  by  Charles  I  at  Durham,  June  26,  1642,  and 
created  a  baronet  by  letters  dated  the  following  day.  On  the  decline  of  the 
royal  cause  he  had  to  compound  for  his  estate,  but  after  the  restoration  he 
served  the  office  of  sheriff  of  Lancashire,  14-15  Car.  II.  He  married  (i)  Frances, 
dau.  and  heiress  of  Richard  Rigg,  of  Little  Strickland,  co.  Westmoreland,  and 
(2),  Anne,  dau,  of  George  Preston,  of  Holker  Hall,  by  whom  he  had  an  only  son, 
Thomas,  who  died  young.  Sir  George  died  Feb.  27,  1673,  aged  73,  and  his  widow 
Anne  survived  him  till  April  12,  1705.  By  his  first  wife  Sir  George  had  a  son 
Geoffrey,  who  died  young,  and  a  dau.  Mary,  who  became  sole  heiress.  She 
married  Somerford  Oldfield,  of  Somerford  Hall,  co.  Chester,  and  had  issue- 
George  Middleton  Oldfield,  who  after  the  death  of  Lady  Anne  Middleton  re- 
sided at  Leighton  Hall;  Anne,  who  married  in  Nov.,  1679,  Edmund  Gooden, 
of  Pendleton  and  Little  Bolton,  who  died  in  1 706 ;  Katherine,  wife  of  Thomas 
Fletcher,  of  Moresby  Hall  (upon  whom  Sir  Henry  Fletcher,  Bart.,  of  Hutton 
Hall,  CO.  Cumberland,  settled  his  estate  when  he  retired  to  the  Franciscan 
Convent  at  Douay  in  17 10),  who  apostatized  after  the  Rising  of  171 5,  and 
turned  general  informer  against  Catholic  Charitable  Trusts,  but  died  s.p. ;  and 
three  daughters  who  died  unmarried.  By  Lady  Clarke,  his  wife,  George 
Middleton  Oldfield,  who  died  in  1708,  had  an  only  son,  who  died  young  in 
1705,  and  hence  the  Middleton  estates  in  Lancashire  and  Westmoreland  passed 
to  the  heiress  of  Mrs  Gooden.  The  Goodens  (or  Goldens)  had  been  long  settled 
at  Little  Bolton  and  at  the  Old  and  New  Halls  in  Pendleton,  and  Edmund 
Gooden's  brother,  Peter,  was  chaplain  to  Lady  Middleton  at  Leighton  Hall, 
and  it  was  through  this  circumstance  that  he  had  been  introduced  to  his  wife. 
They  had  issue  an  only  son  who  died  young,  and  a  daughter  Dorothy,  the 
eventual  heiress  of  the  Middleton  estates,  who  married  Albert  Hodgson,  of  the 
ancient  Catholic  family  seated  at  Hebburn  Hall,  co.  Durham.  Albert  Hodgson 
was  actively  engaged  in  the  Jacobite  rising  of  171 5,  and  suffered  a  long  im- 
prisonment, and  confiscation  of  his  life  interest  in  the  Leighton  estate.  This 
remained  in  the  hands  of  the  Commissioners  for  Forfeited  Estates  till  1722, 
when  it  was  sold  by  auction,  and  purchased  by  a  friend  for  Mr  Hodgson,  who 
again  took  up  his  residence  at  Leighton  Hall,  where  he  was  living  in  1 740.  His 
wife's  will  was  dated  1751.  He  left  two  daughters  and  coheiresses,  Anne,  wife 
of  George  Towneley,  fourth  son  of  Charles  Towneley,  of  Towneley  Hall,  who 
rebuilt  Leighton  Hall,  and  resided  there  till  1782,  and  dying  in  1786,  aged 
eighty,  devised  the  estate  to  his  nephew,  John  Towneley,  of  Towneley  Hall; 
and  Mary,  who  married  in  1737  Bryan  Hawarden,  of  Wigan,  surgeon, 
younger  son  of  John  Hawarden,  of  Lower  House,  in  Widnes,  but  o.s.p.  John 
Towneley  sold  the  estate  to  Alexander  Worswick,  of  Ellel  Grange,  son  of 
Thomas  Worswick,  of  Todderstaffe  Hall,  by  Alice,  dau.  of  Robert  Gillow,  of  Lan- 
caster. Alexander  died  in  18 14,  and  his  son  Thomas  Worswick  sold  Leighton  Hall 
to  his  cousin  Richard  Gillow,  of  Ellel  Grange.  There  was  always  a  chapel  in

Leighton  Hall,  which  was  continuously  served  by  a  chaplain  till  1782,  when 
Mr  Towneley,  before  leaving  the  hall,  settled  his  domestic  chaplain,  the  Rev. 
Michael  Wharton  in  a  house  and  chapel  at  Warton.  In  1852  Richard  Thomas 
Gillow,  of  Leighton  Hall,  lord  of  the  manor  of  Warton,  erected  a  nev/  church 
from  the  designs  of  E.  G.  Paley,  and  it  was  opened  Aug.  5  in  that  year.  The 
list  of  priests  serving  the  chapel  commences  with  George  Beesley  in  1588,  and 
his  relative  John  Beesley  died  at  Leighton  in  1661. 

^The  Washingtons  had  been  seated  at  Warton  for  many  generations,  and 
were  the  ancestors  of  George  Washington,  the  first  President  of  the  United 
States.  Ralph  Sheldon,  the  antiquary,  in  his  Miscellaneous  Pedigrees  MSS  in 
the  writer's  possession,  compiled  about  1680  to  1684,  gives  a  descent  of  the 
Washingtons  of  Warton,  which  is  included  in  the  following  notes.  John 
Washington,  of  Warton,  had  issue — John;  and  Robert,  of  Warton,  who  married 
(i)  a  Westfield  of  the  parish  of  Cartmel,  and  (2)  a  dau.  of  Thomas  Whittington, 
of  Borwick  Hall  in  Warton.  Robert,  by  his  second  wife,  left  issue — John  Wash- 
ington, of  Warton,  who  married  Margaret,  dau.  of  Robert  Kytson,  of  Borwick, 
and  sister  of  Sir  Thomas  Kytson,  of  Hengrave  Hall,  co.  Suffolk,  Lord  Mayor  of 
London,  whose  dau.  and  heiress  Mary  became  the  wife  of  Thomas  Darcy, 
Earl  Rivers,  whose  dau.  and  coheiress,  Lady  Penelope  Darcy,  carried  the  Hen- 
grave  estate  in  marriage  to  her  second  husband.  Sir  John  Gage,  of  Firle,  co. 
Suffolk,  Bart,  whose  third  son,  Sir  Edward  Gage,  inherited  Hengrave,  and 
was  created  a  baronet  in  1662;  Thomas  Washington;  and  Helen,  wife  of  John 
Mason.  John  Washington  had  issue — ^Laurence,  of  Gray's  Inn,  who  received  a 
grant  of  Sulgrave,  parcel  of  the  dissolved  monastery  of  St  Andrew,  co.  North- 
ampton, who  died  in  1585;  Nicholas;  Leonard;  Peter;  Thomas;  and  Joan, 
wife  of  Humphrey  Gardiner,  of  Glasson,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1561.  From 
the  younger  sons  descended  several  families  of  Washington  resident  in  Warton 
and  Dalton,  Laurence,  Nicholas  and  Robert  being  favourite  names,  some  of 
whom  appear  in  the  recusant  rolls.  Laurence  the  eldest  son,  of  Sulgrave,  mar- 
ried Anne,  dau.  of  Robert  [Sheldon  says  Laurence]  Pargiter,  and  she  died  in  1 564, 
leaving  issue— Robert  Washington ;  Anne,  wife  of  Edmund  Forster ;  and  Frances, 
wife  of  John  Thompson,  of  Sulgrave.  John,  a  younger  son  of  Robert,  emigrated 
to  America  in  1657,  and  was  the  father  of  Laurence,  whose  second  son,  Augus- 
tine, was  father  to  George  Washington,  the  first  President  of  the  United  States. 

2  Robert  Middleton,  of  Warton,  was  a  younger  brother  of  Sir  George 
Middleton,  Bart,  of  Leighton  Hall.  He  married  Jane,  dau.  of  Thomas  Kytson, 
of  KilUngton,  co.  Westmoreland,  and  at  the  Visitation  of  1664  was  forty-six 
years  of  age,  and  had  three  children — Thomas,  aged  twenty-six,  George,  and 
Anne.  Robert  Middleton  remained  on  the  rolls  till  his  death  in  1681.  The  roll 
for  1680-1  gives  "Maria  uxor  Georg'  Middleton  de  Warton,  gen."  His  two 
sons  must  have  died  without  issue,  otherwise  the  Leighton  estate  would  have 
gone  to  them  according  to  the  entail. 

*The  Hubberstys  were  substantial  yeomen,  long  resident  in  Yealand 
Conyers,  and  were  always  recusants. 

*Mary,  wife  of  Christopher  Cams,  of  Halton  Hall,  was  the  youngest  dau.  of 
Richard  Stanley,  of  Great  Eccleston  Hall,  by  Mary,  dau.  of  Lambert  Tyldesley, 
and  sister  and  sole  heiress  of  Thomas  Tyldesley,  of  Garret  Hall,  in  Tyldesley. 
Her  husband  was  aged  twenty-eight  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  the  pedigree 
being  signed  by  his  father,  Thomas  Cams,  then  fifty-two  years  of  age.  The 
family  also  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1567,  as  likewise  at  that  of 
Westmoreland,  whence  they  derived,  in  161 5.  The  manor  of  Halton  was  pur-

chased  in  1583  from  Philip,  Earl  of  Arundel,  and  Lady  Anne,  his  wife,  one  of 
the  daughters  of  Thomas,  Lord  Dacre,  by  Sir  Christopher  Carus,  a  younger  son 
of  Sir  Thomas  Carus,  of  Kirkby  Lonsdale,  co.  Westmoreland,  Justice  of  the 
King's  Bench,  Sir  Thomas  married  Katherine,  dau.  of  Thomas  Preston,  of 
Preston  Patrick,  and  resided  at  Halton  Hall  before  it  was  purchased  by  his 
son.  His  eldest  son,  Thomas,  resided  at  Quernmore  Park,  an  estate  belonging  to 
his  maternal  relatives,  the  Prestons,  of  Preston  Patrick  and  the  Manor  of 
Fumess.  Christopher  Carus,  named  in  the  text,  had  issue — ^Thomas  Carus,  born 
in  1661 ;  George,  of  Lancaster,  and  sometime  of  West  Hall,  in  Whittington, 
who  died  in  1727,  having  married  Frances,  daughter  of  Henry  Blundell,  of  Ince 
Blundell  Hall,  and  had  issue,  Thomas,  George,  and  a  dau.  Frances,  who 
married  her  second  cousin  Richard  Butler,  son  of  Christopher  Butler  of  Raw- 
cliffe;  Mary;  Katherine;  Judith,  ob.  infans;  and  Bridget.  Thomas  Carus,  the 
eldest  son,  of  Halton  Hall  and  West  Hall,  had  issue— Christopher,  who  joined 
the  Chevalier  de  St  George  in  171 5,  was  taken  prisoner,  and  was  tried  and 
condemned  to  death,  Feb.  2,  17 16,  but  no  time  fixed  for  execution;  George, 
of  Lancaster,  who  was  outlawed  for  his  part  in  the  Jacobite  Rising;  Thomas, 
who  apostatized  and  publicly  attended  service  at  Halton  Parish  church  on 
Feb.  14,  1 7 14;  and  Mary,  who  died  in  1690.  Halton  was  seized  by  the  Com- 
missioners for  Forfeited  Estates,  but  seems  to  have  been  partially  recovered 
by  the  apostate  Thomas  Carus,  who  resided  at  West  Hall,  married  a  Wilson  of 
Casterton  Hall,  and  had  issue — ^Thomas,  born  Oct.  5,  171 2;  Wilson,  bapt. 
April  I,  1720;  George,  bapt.  Aug.  7,  1721;  William,  bapt.  Aug.  7,  1722;  and 
Grace,  bapt.  Sept.  13,  1723. In  1742  administration  was  granted  to  the  estates 
of  the  three  brothers,  Christopher,  George,  and  Thomas,  and  in  the  following 
year  the  last's  son,  Thomas,  sold  his  interest  in  the  Halton  estate  to  William 
Bradshaw.  Thus  this  ancient  family,  annually  appearing  in  the  recusant  rolls, 
came  to  a  lamentable  end.  Bryan  Carus,  of  Wennington,  named  later  in  the  text, 
was  the  third  son  of  Thomas  Carus,  of  Halton  Hall,  by  his  wife  Anne,  dau.  and 
heiress  of  Myles  Huddleston,  of  West  Hall.Newton,  in  the  parish  of  Whittington. 

^Christopher  Rigmaiden  was  of  Lancaster,  and  a  recusant  in  1680.  He  was 
no  doubt  descended  from  a  younger  son  of  the  Rigmaydens  of  Wedacre  Hall, 
who  returned  a  pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1567.  There  were  two  Benedictines 
and  a  Jesuit  belonging  to  one  of  the  junior  branches  of  this  family — Dom  John 
Maurus  Rigmayden  alias  Smith,  O.S.B.,  born  1672,  died  1759,  and  his  nephew 
Dom  Simeon  Benedict  Rigmayden,  O.S.B.,  born  1707,  died  1749,  and  Fr  John 
Rigmayden  alias  Rothwell,  S.J.,  born  1709,  who  was  residing  inMr  Anderton's 
house  in  Preston,  belonging  to  Caryll,  Lord  Molyneux,  in  Dec,  1745,  and  in 
1 746  passed  to  the  Durham  district,  and  in  1 749  was  placed  at  Kilvington  Hall, 
where  he  died  in  1782. 

2  Some  of  this  family  resided  at  Catforth  Hall,  in  Woodplumpton,  where 
Robert  Kellet  was  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  171 7.  His  will  was  proved  Sept.  15, 
1726,  by  his  executors,  Leonard  and  Henry  Kellet.  By  his  wife,  Jane,  he  had 
issue — John,  Robert,  Ralph,  Ellen,  and  Margaret.  The  will  of  the  eldest  son 
John,  of  Catforth  Hall,  was  proved  by  his  executors,  Jane,  his  widow,  and 
Robert  Kellet,  his  brother,  March  22,  1747.  Robert,  the  second  son  of  Robert,

appears  to  have  been  the  father  of  Dom  Robert  Augustine  Kellet,  O.S.B.,  who 
was  bom  in  1732,  and  died  in  1809.  Other  grandsons  of  Robert  Kellet,  the  non- 
juror, were — Rev.  Henry  Kellet,  of  Burscough  Hall,  who  died  there  in  1808; 
and  Robert  Kellet,  of  Catforth  Hall,  who  married  Elizabeth,  daughter  of 
Robert  Haydock,  of  Leach  Hall  (now  Bartle  Hall).  The  last  had  issue — Robert 
Kellet,  of  Woodplumpton,  who  married  Elizabeth  Walton,  and  had  five  child- 
ren; Rev.  Richard  Kellet,  fifty-four  years  chaplain  to  the  nuns  at  St  Clare's 
Abbey,  Darlington,  who  died  at  an  advanced  age  Oct.  26,  1877;  and  Anne, 
spinster,  of  Preston. 

1  She  was  a  daughter  of  Henry  Remington  and  his  wife  Margaret,  recusants 
in  1650  seq.  The  family  was  long  settled  at  Bolton  Head,  in  Melling,  where  the 
estate  of  Reginald  Remington  was  administered  to  in  1599.  His  son,  Robert, 
was  father  of  Reginald  Remington,  who  died  in  March,  i68i,^and  had  issue,  by 
Anne  his  wife,  Robert,  John,  Thomas,  Henry,  Elizabeth,  and  Jennet,  who  all 
died  intestate,  and  also  a  son  William,  of  Melling,  who  died  in  1702.  By  his  first 
wife,  M.  T.,  the  latter  had — Reginald,  of  Melling,  who  married  EUzabeth  Wilson 
and  died  in  171 2;  Elizabeth,  wife  of  Robert  B.,  and  Anne,  wife  of  Leonard  C. 
By  his  second  wife  William  had  issue — John,  Robert,  and  Elizabeth.  Reginald, 
the  eldest  son,  was  the  father  of  Henry  Remington,  of  MelUng,  who,  by  his 
wife,  Isabel  Bainbrig,  had  issue  a  son  Reginald  Remington,  of  The  Crow 
Trees,  in  Melling,  J. P.,  born  in  1770,  the  friend  of  Lingard  the  historian,  who 
married  in  1796  Catherine,  daughter  of  Thomas  Machell,  of  Aynsome,  and  had 
issue  Henry,  of  The  Crow  Trees,  J. P.,  born  1797.  Henry  married,  in  1826,  Mary, 
only  child  of  George  Ashbumer,  of  Holm  Bank,  Ulverston,  and  had  issue — 
Reginald,  bom  1827,  a  Protestant  clergyman;  George,  Henry,  Thomas-Machell, 
Agnes,  wife  of  Rev.  Thomas  Edmund  Petty,  of  Bardsea,  and  Catherine.  The 
family  lost  the  faith  towards  the  end  of  the  seventeenth  century. 

2  Two  brothers  of  this  family  became  priests — James,  bom  Sept.  8,  1707, 
son  of  Richard  Layfield  and  his  wife  Elizabeth  Atkinson,  who  was  ordained 
priest  at  Rome  March  16,  1726,  and  Christopher,  bom  Sept.  13,  171 3,  who 
was  ordained  priest  at  Douay,  Dec.  22,  1742,  and  after  remaining  as  prefect- 
general,  left  for  the  mission  July  7,  1745,  and  was  placed  at  Tixall,  in  Stafford- 
shire, the  seat  of  Lord  Aston,  where  he  died  Sept.  27,  1761.  James,  the  elder 
brother,  left  Rome  Sept.  9,  1728,  to  be  chaplain  to  the  nuns  at  Liege,  and  after- 
wards came  to  the  mission  at  Wolverhampton,  and  finally  removed  to  Oscott, 
where  he  died  Feb.  5,  1756.  He  was  elected  to  the  Old  Chapter  on  Nov.  29,  1752. 
Administration  to  the  estate  of  Richard  Layfield,  of  Claughton,  was  granted  in 
1684,  and  to  that  of  Richard  Layfield,  of  Lancaster,  probably  the  father  of  the 
two  priests,  in  1717. 

3  William  Sweetlove,  of  Claughton,  was  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  171 7,  and 
administration  to  his  estate  was  granted  in  1719.  His  son,  Thomas,  was  also  a 
Catholic  non- juror  in  171 7,  and  his  will  was  proved  in  1734. 

*The  Croftes,  of  Claughton  Hall,  had  been  the  manorial  lords  of  Claughton 
in  Lonsdale  from  a  remote  century,  and  yet  they  did  not  return  a  pedigree  at 
any  of  the  Visitations.  They  appear  in  the  rolls  from  1591,  Edward,  Gabriel, 
and  Henry  being  favourite  names  with  the  family.  Eventually  an  heiress  carried 
the  estate  to  the  Cansfields,  of  Robert  Hall.  The  chapel  in  the  hall,  however, 
which  had  been  regularly  served  throughout  the  days  of  persecution,  was 
maintained  by  the  Cansfields  and  their  successors,  the  Gerards  of  Bryn. 
Claughton  Hall,  dating  from  the  time  of  Henry  VII,  was  a  most  interesting 
example  of  an  early  manorial  residence.  A  low  gateway,  with  an  oriel  window 
above,  opened  into  the  quadrangle.  The  terrace  front  was  flanked  with  two

quaint  towers,  with  long  transomed  windows  above.  A  younger  branch  of  the 
family  resided  at  West  End,  or  Claughton  House,  and  of  this  branch  were  no 
doubt  the  Croftes  of  the  text.  In  171 7  Margaret  Crofte,  of  Claughton,  widow, 
and  her  son  William  were  Catholic  non-jurors.  She  was  probably  the  widow  of 
Henry  Crofte,  whose  will  was  proved  in  17 10.  West  End  eventually  passed  with 
the  daughter  and  heiress  of  Henry  Crofte  to  Mr  Knowles,  of  Claughton,  and 
through  his  son  Henry's  daughter  and  heiress  to  Samuel  Still,  of  London. 

^ Mary  Girlington  was  the  youngest  daughter  of  Sir  John  Girlington,  of 
Thurland  Castle,  in  Tunstall,  a  major-general  in  the  royal  army,  slara  in  1645. 

2  The  ffaithwaites,  or  ffarthwayte  as  the  naftie  was  more  usually  written, 
had  long  resided  at  Littledale,  in  Caton.  The  inquisition  post  mortem  of  Henry 
Farthwaite,  of  Littledale,  gentleman,  was  taken  March  16,  1627,  when  it  was 
found  that  he  was  seised  of  considerable  estate  in  fee,  that  he  died  April  30,  1624, 
and  that  Thomas,  then  aged  thirteen  years  and  seven  months,  was  his  son  and 
heir.  The  will  of  Anthony  ffaithwait,  of  Littledale,  was  proved  in  1606,  and  that 
of  a  namesake,  of  the  same,  in  1639. 

3  The  Townsons  had  resided  at  Littledale,  in  Caton,  for  a  very  long  period. 
Christopher  subsequently  removed  to  Melling,  where  administration  to  his 
estate  was  granted  in  1701.  There  were  several  Benedictines  of  this  family. 
Dom  John  Townson,  D.D.,  was  professed  at  Lambspring  in  1674,  and  died  in 
1718,  Dom  Thomas  Augustine  Townson  was  professed  at  Lambspring  in  1688, 
and  died  in  1722,  and  Bro.  William  Andrew  Townson  was  professed  at  Douay 
in  1695,  s-iid  died  in  171 1. 

*  The  Copelands,  probably  descended  from  the  ancient  Lancashire  family 
of  their  name,  were  agents  to  the  Daltons,  of  Thurnham  Hall,  for  their  Bulk, 
Aldcliffe,  and  other  estates.  They  resided  at  Dolphin  Lee,  over  the  entrance  to 
which  is  still  a  stone  inscribed  with  the  initials  L  C  E,  standing  for  Laurence 
Copeland  and  his  wife.  He  was  steward  to  the  Daltons  in  1641  and  died  at 
Dolphin  Lee  in  1651.  Administration  to  the  estate  of  his  son,  Robert  Copeland, 
named  in  the  text,  of  Dolphin  Lee,  was  granted  in  1670,  and  to  those  of  Thomas 
Copeland  in  1676  and  John  Copeland  in  1697,  both  of  Dolphin  Lee.  Mary  Cope- 
land, widow  of  Thomas,  of  Aldcliffe,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1697,  was  a 
Catholic  non-juror  in  17 17,  residing  on  the  Dalton  estate  at  Aldcliffe,  as  also 
her  son  Henry  Copeland,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1746.  The  family  always 
retained  the  faith.  John  Copeland  alias  Street,  of  Lancashire,  took  the  oath 
at  Douay  College  in  1638.  Mass  was  said  in  the  old  chapel  in  Dolphin  Lee  from 
a  very  early  period.  The  pre-Reformation  chalice,  from  the  parish  church  of

Caton,  was  the  one  in  regular  use  at  Dolphin  Lee  till  the  service  there  was  dis- 
continued, when  it  was  handed  over  to  the  priest  serving  Claughton  Hall  and 
Robert  Hall  by  the  successors  of  the  Copelands  at  Dolphin  Lee,  the  Balls, 
whence  it  was  transferred  to  Hornby  mission.  The  Balls,  who  regularly  appear 
in  the  recusant  rolls,  are  strangely  omitted  from  the  present  list.  They  were 
long  tenants  of  the  Daltons  on  their  Thurnham  and  Cockerham  estates.  Ad- 
ministration to  the  estate  of  Rudolph  Ball,  of  Cockerham,  was  granted  in  1685, 
and  one  of  his  books  with  his  autograph  was  formerly  in  the  possession  of  the 
Rev.  William  Ball,  of  Westby.  William  Ball,  of  Cockerham,  by  his  wife  Cicely, 
who  was  probably  a  Worthington,  had  issue — Robert,  of  Scale  Hall,  near  Lan- 
caster, who  seems  to  have  been  the  first  to  succeed  the  Copelands  at  Dolphin 
Lee;  Thomas,  of  Thurnham,  Catholic  non-juror  in  1717;  and  George,  bom 
1678,  who  was  ordained  priest  at  Rome  in  1704,  served  Mosborough  Hall,  the 
seat  of  the  Molyneux  family,  for  many  years,  till  he  removed  in  1728  to  Moor 
Hall,  the  seat  of  Mrs  Wolfall,  where  he  seems  to  have  died  in  Nov.,  1734. 
Robert,  the  eldest  son,  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  171 7,  by  his  wife,  Winefred, 
daughter  of  Mr  Taylor,  of  Park  Hall,  Quernmore,  had  issue — William,  of 
Dolphin  Lee;  George  Ball  alias  Worthington,  born  Jan.  2,  1703,  s.v.,  who  went 
to  Douay,  where  he  was  admitted  June  15,  1717,  was  ordained  priest  April  2, 
1729,  and  after  teaching  syntax  left  the  college  for  the  mission  June  25,  1730, 
is  thought  to  have  served  Dolphin  Lee  for  a  time,  then  Warwick  Hall,  Cumber- 
land, the  seat  of  the  Warwicks,  and  was  rural  dean,  till  his  death,  April  26, 
1748;  Edward,  born  Augt  5,  17 17,  who  went  to  Douay  in  1730,  assumed  the 
alias  of  Worthington,  was  ordained  priest  Sept.  23,  1741,  and  retained  as  a  pro- 
fessor till  Augt  6,  1747,  when  he  was  placed  at  Ugthorpe,  co.  York,  thence  in 
1750  was  transferred  to  Great  Eccleston,  in  the  Fylde,  which  he  left  for  Paynes- 
ley,  CO.  Stafford,  in  1757,  was  transferred  to  Wolverhampton  in  1759,  after 
several  years  became  chaplain  at  the  Sardinian  Chapel,  was  there  1773-4,  and 
finally  went  to  teach  at  St  Omer's  College,  where  he  died  Feb.  16,  1789; 
John,  born  March  13,  1722,  who  was  admitted  at  Douay  under  the  alias  of 
Worthington,  Aug.  3,  1735,  ordained  priest  March  26,  1746,  left  Feb.  26,  1747, 
lived  many  years  at  Brailes,  the  seat  of  the  Bishop  family,  which  he  left  on 
account  of  the  persecution  of  Mr  Holland,  an  attorney  of  Cleobury,  and  brother 
to  Mrs  Bishop,  and  became  confessarius  at  the  Augustinian  convent  at  Bruges  in 
1775,  but  was  recalled  by  his  bishop  in  1778,  and  became  chaplain  to  Sir  Richard

^The  Croskells,  of  Bulk,  the  name  in  early  times  appearing  as  Cross-gill 
and  Crosskill,  were  leaseholders  under  the  Daltons  of  Thurnham.  Most  of  them 
resided  at  Ellel  about  this  period,  and  it  would  seem  that  Christopher  of  the 
text,  son  of  Robert  Croskell,  removed  there  before  his  death,  administration 
to  his  estate  being  dated  1680.  He  had  issue  amongst  others — Robert,  of  Bulk, 
a  Catholic  non-juror  in  171 7,  whose  will  was  proved  Nov.  4,  1727,  by  his 
executors,  Robert  Birkett  and  Thomas  Bennison,  gen. ;  Thomas,  of  Ellel,  will 
proved  by  Thomas  Gardner,  his  son-in-law,  and  Thomas  Croskell,  his  grand- 
son, Dec.  8,  1739;  Christopher,  of  Lancaster,  who  had  a  daughter  Anne,  living 
in  1717;  and  Dorothy,  of  Scotforth,  spr,  administration  to  whose  estate  was 
granted  to  her  brother  Robert  in  April,  1725.  Robert,  the  eldest  son,  had  issue 
a  son  John,  of  Bulk,  whose  widow,  Elizabeth,  administered  to  his  estate  July  9, 
1747.  John's  son,  Robert,  of  Bulk,  married  Winifred,  daughter  of  William  Ball, 
of  Dolphin  Lee,  died  at  Bulk  July  3,  18 14,  and  left  issue — John,  who  went  to 
Sedgley  Park  School  in  1777;  William,  who  went  to  Sedgley  in  1779,  thence 
to  Douay,  where  he  arrived  Oct.  i,  1783,  was  imprisoned  at  Dourlens  during  the 
French  Revolution,  and  after  release  was  ordained  priest  at  York  in  1795,  and 
died  grand-vicar  of  the  Northern  District  in  1838,  aged  seventy;  Thomas,  who 
went  to  Sedgley  in  1788,  and  died  at  Bulk,  Feb.  i,  i860,  aged  eighty-one;  Charles,

1862  till  his  death,  Aug.  2,  1891,  and  was  the  father  of  Canon  Charles  Croskell, 
of  Leeds,  and  James  Croskell;  and  Elizabeth,  who  married  April  8,  1793,  George 
Corbishley,  of  Claughton  in  Lonsdale  and  Cockersand  Abbey,  grandson  of  Samuel 
Corbishley,  of  Claughton,  who  died  in  1720,  and  father  of  Robert  Corbishley, 
of  London,  who  died  in  Dec,  1857,  aged  fifty-two,  leaving  by  Anne,  daughter  of 
Henry  Wolfe,  of  Peel,  near  Lytham,  William  Wolfe  Corbishley,  of  London, 
Rev.  Robert,  of  Manchester,  Very  Rev.  Canon  Thomas,  died  1905,  Charles, 
and  Mgr  Joseph  Corbishley,  V.P.  of  Ushaw  College.  Thomas  Croskell,  who 
died  in  i860,  by  his  wife,  a  daughter  of  John  Coulston,  of  Lancaster,  had  issue — 
the  Rt  Rev.  Mgr  Robert,  born  at  Liverpool,  Jan.  20,  1808,  ordained  priest  at 
Ushaw,  June  13,  1835,  provost  of  Salford,  died  at  Levenshulme,  Manchester, 
Dec.  12,  1902,  aged  almost  ninety-five;  Gabriel,  of  Lancaster;  and  Thomas,

his  uncle  Gabriel  Coulston,  married,  in  1843,  Margaret,  daughter  of  John 
Leeming,  of  Ridge,  near  Lancaster,  and  left  issue  the  Rt  Rev.  Mgr  Thomas 
Croskell,  now  of  Rusholme,  Manchester,  who  went  to  Sedgley  Park  School 
1856-59,  and  thence  to  Ushaw,  where  he  was  ordained  priest,  Nov.  i,  1872.

3  The  Sergeants  of  Aldcliffe  and  Ellel  were  wealthy  yeomen.  The  will  of 
Robert  Sergeant,  of  Aldcliffe,  was  proved  in  1697,  ^^^  that  of  Thomas  Sergeant, 
of  the  same,  in  1690.  Roger  Sergeant,  of  Aldcliffe,  was  a  recusant  in  1679.  The 
estate  of  William  Sergeant,  of  Ellel,  appearing  later  in  the  text,  and  also  in  the 
rolls  till  1684,  was  administered  to  in  1708.  One  of  them  was  the  father  of  John 
Sergeant,  of  Hessam  (or  Hesom)  Sike,  in  Ellel,  a  Catholic  non-juror  in  171 7,  who

issue — Robert,  of  Hessam  Sike  in  Ellel,  administration  to  whose  estate  was 
granted  in  1745;  John,  born  Jan.  3,  1714,  s.v.,  who  was  admitted  into  Douay 
College,  Sept.  30,  1735,  ordained  priest  March  19,  1744,  left  for  the  mission 
Augt  2,  1745,  met  the  Prince's  troops  at  Preston,  was  seized  and  taken  to 
Lancaster  Castle,  but  hberated,  and  placed  in  charge  of  the  mission  of  Wyres- 
dale  and  Scorton,  where  he  died  Augt  31,  1795,  and  was  buried  at  Cockerham. 
He  had  a  controversy  with  Thomas  Hunter,  the  vicar  of  Garstang  in  1753, 
and  he  also  published  a  book  entitled  The  Turk  and  the  Pope.  Another  John 
Sergeant,  supposed  to  be  of  the  same  family,  went  to  Sedgley  Park  School  in 
1 79 1,  thence  to  Valladolid,  where  he  was  ordained  priest,  was  many  years  chap- 
lain at  Spanish  Place,  London,  but  died  at  Liverpool,  Sept.  i,  1825.  He  was  a 
frequent  contributor  to  the  Orthodox  Journal,  and  other  Catholic  periodicals, 
under  the  signature  of  J.  S. 

^The  Girlingtons,  of  Hackforth  Hall,  co.  York,  descended  from  the  Girling- 
tons,  of  Girlington  Hall,  co.  York,  acquired  Thurland  Castle,  in  Cantsfield,  by 
purchase  from  Francis  Tunstall,  who  removed  to  Scargill  Castle,  co.  York, 
between  1600  and  1604,  at  which  period  John  Girlington  first  appears  as  of 
Thurland  Castle  in  the  recusant  rolls.  Pedigrees  of  Girlington,  of  Girlington 
Hall  and  of  Hackforth  Hall,  appear  in  the  Visitations  of  Yorkshire,  and  of 
Thurland  Castle  in  the  Visitations  of  Lancashire  in  161 3  and  1664.  The  Lanca- 
shire returns  are  unsatisfactory,  many  names  being  omitted,  and  the  issue 
of  younger  sons  entirely  ignored.  John  Girlington,  the  purchaser  of  Thurland 
Castle,  was  the  fourth  son  of  Nicholas  Girlington,  of  Hackforth  Hall,  by 
Dorothy,  daughter  of  Robert  Meynell,  of  Hawnby  Hall,  co.  York,  serjeant-at- 
law,  and  her  sister  Joan  Meynell  was  the  wife  of  Ninian  Girlington,  of  GirUng- 
ton  Hall.  By  his  wife  Christian,  daughter  of  Sir  William  Babthorpe,  of  Bab- 
thorpe  Hall,  John  had  issue — Nicholas,  of  Thurland  Castle,  who  married  Jane, 
daughter  and  coheiress  of  Josias  Lambert,  of  Calton,  co.  York,  son  of  John 
Calton,  by  Anne,  daughter  of  Richard  Redman,  of  Harewood  Castle;  William, 
of  Cantsfield,  who,  with  his  wife  Margaret,  was  a  recusant  in  1625  seq.,  and 
was  probably  the  father  of  Dom  John  Girlington,  O.S.B,,  professed  at  Paris 
in  1653,  prior  of  Dieulward,  1677-81,  who  subsequently  came  to  the  mission; 
John,  of  Gray's  Inn,  whose  will  was  proved  in  1626;  Anthony,  of  Thurland 
Castle,  a  captain  in  the  royal  army,  who  was  slain  at  or  near  the  castle  during 
its  siege  in  1643 ;  Dorothy,  wife  of  William  Salvin,  of  Newbiggin  Hall,  co.  York; 
Frances,  wife  of  Mr  Collingwood,  of  Bawtry,  co.  Notts;  and  Faith,  wife  of 
Ralph  Carre.  Nicholas,  the  eldest  son,  had  issue — Josias,  aged  one  at  the 
Visitation  of  161 3,  who  died  young;  Sir  John,  knighted  by  Charles  I,  who 
defended  Thurland  Castle,  the  last  stronghold  of  the  King  in  Lancashire, 
during  a  siege  of  eleven  weeks  till  its  surrender  in  Oct.,  1643;  Nicholas,  living 
unmarried  in  1664;  Christian,  unmarried  in  1664;  and  Mary,  wife  of  Cuthbert 
Collingwood,  of  Dalden,  co.  Durham.  Lieut.  William  Girlington,  slain  in  the 
royal  cause  during  the  civil  wars,  was  either  a  brother  or  cousin  of  Sir  John, 
though  he  is  omitted  from  the  pedigrees.  Sir  John  was  a  major-general  in  the 
royal  army,  and  lost  his  hfe  in  the  battle  near  Melton  Mowbray,  co.  Leicester, 
in  1645.  He  married  his  cousin,  Katherine,  daughter  of  Thomas  Girlington, 
and  had  issue — Nicholas,  living  in  1642,  who  seems  to  have  died  young;  John, 
aged  twenty-seven  at  the  Visitation  of  1664;  WiUiam;  Anne,  wife  of  Robert 
Cole,  of  Beaumont  Cote;  and  Mary,  the  spinster  named  earlier  in  the  text. 
John,  the  eldest  son,  married  Margaret,  daughter  of  James  Duckett,  of  Gray-

Workington  Hall,  and  probably  was  the  John  Girlington,  of  Hornby,  whose 
will  was  proved  in  1706,  as  Thurland  Castle  had  been  demolished  in  1643.  He 
had  issue  four  daughters — Magdalen,  aged  eight  at  the  Visitation  of  1664; 
Katherine;  Elizabeth;  and  Margaret.  Magdalen,  the  eldest  daughter  and  even- 
tual sole  heiress,  became  the  wife  of  Henry  Butler,  of  Rawcliffe  Hall,  her 
marriage  articles  being  dated  Dec.  13,  1683.  Henry  Butler  about  1709  con- 
veyed all  his  estate  to  his  son  Richard,  who  was  taken  prisoner  at  the  battle  of 
Preston  in  171 5,  condemned  to  death,  and  his  estates  forfeited,  but  died  in 
prison  in  London  in  17 16.  The  Thurland  Castle  estate,  however,  was  settled 
upon  Richard's  infant  daughter  and  heiress,  Catherine  Butler,  who  married 
in  1729  Philip  Markham,  of  OUerton  Hall,  co.  Notts,  but  died  under  age  and 
sine  prole,  when  the  Thurland  estate  was  sold.  John  Girlington,  son  of  one  of  the 
younger  sons  of  John  Girlington  and  Christian  Babthorpe,  was  living  in  1662, 
and  had  issue — Richard,  of  St  Worth,  appearing  earlier  in  the  text  under 
Hoghton,  who  married  Anne,  daughter  of  Thomas  Gillibrand,  of  Chorley 
(or  Gillibrand)  Hall,  by  Anne,  daughter  of  William  Blundell,  of  Crosby  Hall, 
and  relict  of  WilHam  Hesketh,  of  North  Meols  Hall;  and  John,  born  at  Thur- 
land, who  was  ordained  priest  at  Lisbon,  and  came  to  the  mission  in  1684, 
and  died  Augt  13,  1729,  at  Sunderland  Bridge,  Durham,  the  last  of  his  family. 
The  latter  has  been  confused  by  Abbot  Snow  {Necrology  O.S.B.)  with  his 
namesake  the  Benedictine.  Richard  Girlington,  of  Withnell,  had  issue  a  child 
buried  at  Brindle  Augt  22,  1654,  and  a  daughter  Elizabeth  buried  there 
Jan.  26,  1693,  whom  he  followed  to  the  same  grave  on  March  23,  1698. 

^The  Cansfields,  or  Cantsfields,  had  possessed  Cantsfield  Hall,  in  Tunstall 
parish,  and  Robert  Hall,  in  Tatham  parish,  from  a  remote  period,  but  through 
some  cause  or  other  did  not  return  a  pedigree  at  any  of  the  Visitations.  Early 
in  the  i6th  century  Elizabeth,  daughter  and  sole  heiress  of  Robert  Cantsfield, 
of  Cantsfield  Hall,  married  William  Charnock,  of  Charnock  Hall  and  Leyland 
Old  Hall,  but  Cantsfield  reverted  to  the  younger  branch  seated  at  Robert 
Hall.  Thomas  Cansfield,  of  Robert  Hall  and  Cantsfield  Hall,  married  Frances, 
daughter  of  Brian  Fowler,  of  St  Thomas'  Priory,  co.  Stafford,  and  had  issue — 
Sir  John  Cansfield,  the  Royalist,  who  was  badly  wounded  at  Newbury,  in  1643, 
and  after  spending  some  time  on  the  Continent,  during  which  he  visited  Rome 
in  1646,  died  from  the  effects  of  his  injuries;  Brian,  baptized  at  Tatham,  Dec.  17, 
1580,  entered  the  Society  of  Jesus  at  Rome  in  1604,  and  used  the  alias  of  Chris- 
topher Benson,  subsequently  came  to  the  mission,  was  seized  at  the  altar  and 
imprisoned  in  York  Castle,  whence  he  obtained  his  discharge  only  to  die  from 
the  effects  of  his  ill-treatment  Aug.  3,  1643;  Dame  Mary  Anne,  who  become  a 
nun  at  the  Benedictine  convent  at  Brussels  in  1598,  and  died  in  161 1;  Eliza- 
beth, Blanch  of  the  text,  and  Mary,  all  spinsters  and  recusants  at  Robert 
Hall  in  1621.  Sir  John,  by  his  wife  Isabel,  daughter  of  Thomas  Ashton,  of 
Croston  Hall,  had  issue — John,  of  Robert  Hall  and  Cantsfield  Hall,  who 
married  Elizabeth,  daughter  and  heiress  of  James  Anderton,  of  Birchley  Hall, 
by  Anne,  daughter  of  Sir  W^alter  Blount,  of  Sodington  Hall,  co.  Worcester, 
Bart.;  Charles,  who  was  admitted  into  the  college  at  Rome  March  17,  1639, 
aged  twenty-six,  and  adopted  the  alias  of  Ashton,  was  ordained  priest  July  5, 
1643,  came  to  the  mission  in  1645,  became  a  canon  of  the  Old  Chapter  in  1667, 
and  died  in  1694;  a^nd  several  daughters,  some  of  whom  became  nuns.  John,  the 
eldest  son,  died  Augt  29,  and  his  wife  Elizabeth  Feb.  19,  1680,  and  were  buried 
at  Tatham  Church,  where  a  monument  commemorates  them.  They  had  issue 
two  daughters  and  coheiresses — Anne,  wife  of  Richard  Sherburne,  of  Stony- 
hurst,  who  died  s.p.,  and  Mary,  ultimately  sole  heiress  to  the  Cansfield  and 
Anderton  estates,  who  married  Sir  William  Gerard,  of  Bryn,  fifth  Bart,  whose 
descendants  still  own  Robert  Hall  and  Cantsfield  Hall,  now  degenerated  into 
farm-houses.  The  ancient  chapel  at  Robert  Hall,  which  was  served  continu- 
ously throughout  penal  times,  is  now  in  a  very  dilapidated  condition.

^  The  Gametts  of  Cantsfield  were  an  ancient  family,  and  appear  annually 
in  the  recusant  rolls.  Stephen  Garnett,  of  Lancashire,  was  ordained  priest  and 
came  to  England  from  Douay  in  1581.  The  will  of  William  Garnett,  of  Cants- 
field, was  proved  in  1604.  Richard  Garnett,  son  of  William  Garnett  and  Mary 
his  wife,  was  born  at  Cantsfield  about  1680,  took  his  degree  of  B.A.  at  Trinity 
College,  Cambridge,  and  was  received  into  the  Church  by  Mr  John  Redman, 
the  priest  at  Robert  Hall,  and  afterwards  lived  for  some  time  with  another 
priest,  Reginald  Battle,  who  at  this  time  was  probably  at  Cantsfield  Hall  or 
Over  Burrow  Hall.  He  sent  him  to  Rome,  where  he  was  admitted  in  1605,  and 
assumed  the  alias  of  Fisher.  He  was  ordained  priest  in  1606,  and  went  to  Douay 
College  in  1609,  whence  he  left  for  England  in  16 10.  Edmund  Garnett,  of 
Lancashire,  went  to  the  college  at  Valladolid  in  1670,  and  was  ordained  priest 
in  1674.  Nicholas  Garnett,  of  Cantsfield,  was  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  17 17. 

2  Administration  to  the  estate  of  Evan  Pilkington,  of  Sturzaker,  in  Gar- 
stang  parish,  was  granted  in  1668. 

3  Mary  Cams  was  the  young  daughter  of  Thomas  Carus  of  Halton  Hall,  and 
of  West  Hall  in  Whittington,  by  his  second  wife  Mary,  daughter  of  Thomas 
Stanley,  of  Great  Eccleston  Hall  (natural  son  of  Henry  Stanley,  Earl  of  Derby), 
by  Mary,  daughter  of  Robert  Hesketh,  of  Rufford  Hall,  and  widow  of  Richard 
Barton,  of  Barton  Hall.  Mrs  Carus  was  the  widow  of  Captain  John  Butler, 
of  Kirkland  Hall,  who  was  slain  at  Marston  Moor,  July  2,  1644,  whose  young 
children  in  consequence  were  brought  up  Protestants  by  the  trustees,  all  his 
ancestors  and  relations  having  previously  been  staunch  Catholics.  George 
Carus,  own-brother  to  Mary  of  the  text,  was  baptized  at  Wliittington,  Oct.  6, 
1651. 

*Lucy,  widow  of  Richard  North,  of  Docker  Hall,  in  Whittington  parish, 
was  the  second  daughter  of  Thomas  Carus,  of  Halton  Hall,  who  acquired  West 
Hall,  in  Whittington,  with  his  wife,  Anne,  daughter  and  heiress  of  Miles 
Huddleston,  who  erected  West  Hall.  The  Norths  were  living  at  Docker  Hall  in 
the  reign  of  Queen  Mary.  They  appear  annually  in  the  recusant  rolls  from 
1 591.  John  North,  of  Docker  Hall,  his  wife  Margaret,  and  his  children,  Richard, 
Thomas,  John,  Margaret,  Alice,  and  Ellen,  all  appear  in  the  rolls  temp.  Jac.  I 
and  Car.  I.  John,  the  son,  was  ordained  priest  at  Douay  April  5,  1631,  using 
the  alias  of  Lancaster,  and  thence  sent  to  Lisbon  to  be  prefect  of  studies.  He  is 
probably  the  North  mentioned  by  Dr  Southcote  as  serving  some  mission  in 
Westmoreland  in  1632,  and  later  found  serving  Thurnham  Hall  and  the 
vicinity  in  the  last  quarter  of  the  seventeenth  century.  His  brother  Richard, 
the  husband  of  Lucy  Carus,  seems  to  have  died  in  1627,  and  his  next  brother 
Thomas  succeeded  to  Docker  Hall,  whose  descendant  and  namesake  died  in 
July,  1790,  when  the  estate  was  sold.  Like  many  others,  the  Norths  did  not 
return  a  pedigree  at  any  of  the  Visitations,  though  fully  entitled  to  do  so. 

^  Anne  Batty's  will  was  proved  in  1677.  She  was  apparently  the  widow  of 
Thomas  Battie,  who  died  about  1661.  The  Battys  were  descended  from  the

ancient  family  of  Battie  of  Over  Burrow  Hall,  in  Tunstall,  of  which  parish 
Robert  Battie  died  vicar  in  1592.  Reginald  Battie,  born  in  or  about  1569, 
arrived  at  Douay  College  in  1590,  and  left  for  Rome  in  1591.  There  he  was 
ordained  priest  March  12,  1594,  and  left  the  college  for  England  Dec.  16,  1597. 
In  1605  he  was  serving  Over  Burrow  Hall  or  Cantsfield  Hall,  probably  both. 
John  Battie  was  a  recusant  living  at  Over  Burrow  Hall  in  1620. 

1  Administration  to  the  estate  of  Anne  Apeley,  of  Poulton-le-Sands,  was 
granted  in  1684.  The  Appleys  were  a  local  family. 

'The  Knipes  of  Burblethwaite  Hall  were  descended  from  William  Knipe, 
of  Burblethwaite  Hall,  and  his  wife,  a  daughter  of  the  ancient  family  of 
Broughton,  of  Broughton  Tower,  in  the  parish  of  Kirkby  Ireleth.  The  will 
of  Thomas  Knipe,  of  Burblethwaite,  was  proved  in  1664.  His  namesake  of  the 
text  was  no  doubt  his  son.  Thomas  Knipe,  of  Burblethwaite  Hall,  married 
Isabel,  daughter  of  John  Bradshaw,  of  Scales  Hall,  and  relict  of  George  Smith, 
of  Stalmine  Grange.  The  family  appears  annually  in  the  rolls  down  to  this 
period. 

*  Hampsfield  Hall,  in  East  Broughton,  in  the  parish  of  Cartmel,  a  venerable 
mansion,  was  long  a  residence  of  the  Thornburghs,  or  Thornboroughs,  of  Sel- 
side  Hall,  co.  Westmoreland,  who  returned  pedigrees  at  the  Visitations  of 
Yorkshire  (nominally  in  1584-5  to  161 2),  and  Westmoreland  in  161 5,  but  none 
at  those  of  Lancashire.  From  Rowland  de  Thornborough,  living  in  the  time  of 
Edward  I,  descended  William  Thornborough,  of  Thornborough,  co.  York,  who 
married  a  dau.  of  Sir  John  Croker,  of  London,  and  his  son,  Sir  Wilham  Thorn- 
borough, of  Thornborough,  married  Anne,  dau.  of  Richard  Maleverer,  who 
had  issue,  WiHiam,  o.s.p.,  John,  of  Hampsfield,  co.  Lancaster,  and  Anne,  wife 
of  Christopher  Curwen.  John  Thornborough,  of  Hampsfield,  married  Elizabeth, 
dau.  of  Sir  Henry  Pierpoint,  and  had  issue,  William,  who  married  Catherine, 
dau.  of  William  Hilton,  Thomas,  John,  and  Margaret,  wife  of  Wilham  Easton. 
According  to  the  pedigree  in  Nicholson's  Hist,  of  Westmoreland,  which  is  not  as 
reliable  as  it  might  be,  Wilham,  the  eldest  son,  had  amongst  others  a  son 
Thomas,  who  married  Jane,  dau.  of  Sir  John  Dalston,  of  Dalston,  co.  Cumber- 
land, and  was  succeeded  by  his  son  Henry,  who,  by  his  wife,  Elizabeth,  dau.  of 
Matthew  Pooth,  had  issue — ^William  Thornborough,  of  Hampsfield  Hall,  co. 
Lancaster,  and  Selside  Hall,  co.  Westmoreland,  with  whom  the  pedigree  in  the 
Yorkshire  Visitations  commences;  John;  Henry;  Jane,  wife  of  William  Brad- 
shaigh;  Catherine,  a  nun;   and  Elizabeth,  wife  of  Pierce  Starkey.  William, 
the  eldest  son,  married  Eleanor,  dau.  of  Sir  Richard  Musgrave,  of  Musgrave 
Hall,  CO.  Westmoreland,  and  had  issue — ^William,  of  Hampsfield  Hall,  who 
married  Elizabeth,  dau.  and  heiress  of  Sir  Thomas  Broughton,  of  Broughton

Middleton,  of  Middleton  Hall,  co.  Westmoreland;  Thomas;  Nicholas;  Eleanor, 
wife  of  Richard  Curwen,  of  Workington  Hall,  co.  Cumberland ;  Anne,  wife  of 
Sir  Thomas  Preston,  of  the  Manor  of  Furness;  Elizabeth,  wife  of  William 
Kirkby,  of  Up  Rawcliffe  Hall;  and  Isabel,  wife  of  William  Clifton,  of  Westby 
Hall.  Rowland,  the  eldest  son,  had  issue — Sir  William  Thornborough,  of  Hamps- 
field Hall,  and   Selside   Hall,  who   married  Thomasine,  dau.   and  coheiress 
of  Sir  Robert  Bellingham,  of  Whitwell  Hall,  co.  Westmoreland,  whereby  the 
manor  of  Whitwell  was  united  with  that  of  Selside;  Rowland;  Eleanor,  wife  of 
Thomas  Beck ;  Elizabeth,  wife  of  Thomas  Warcop,  of  Smardale  Hall,  co.  West- 
moreland; Anne,  wife  of  Thomas  Roos;  and  Alice,  wife  of  Thomas  Kellet,  of 
Winder.  Sir  William,  whose  wife  died  in  15  Eliz.  1572-3,  had  issue — ^WilUam

John  Holden,  of  Chaigley  Hall;  James;  and  William.  Rowland  Thornburgh, 
the  eldest  son,  had  issue — ^Thomas,  who  died  unmarried ;  Elizabeth,  who  married 
John  Trafford,  of  Croston  Hall,  but  ob.  s.p. ;  and  several  children  who  died  young. 
Rowland's  will  was  dated  Nov.  5,  1708;  his  widow,  who  resided  at  Skelsmergh, 
CO.  Westmoreland,  was  a  Catholic  non- juror  in  171 7.  After  the  death  of  Mrs 
Trafford,  the  elder  line  of  the  Thornburghs  seems  to  have  become  extinct.  When 
the  family  ceased  to  reside  at  Hampsfield  Hall  is  not  recorded.  It  was  eventually 
purchased  by  the  Rawlinsons,  and  is  now  a  farmhouse.  The  family  was  con- 
tinued by  the  descendants  of  Nicholas,  of  Whitwell  Hall,  third  son  of  Sir 
William  Thornborough,  who  had  issue — ^William,  of  Whitwell  Hall,  who  pur- 
chased Selside  Hall  from  his  cousin  and  namesake;  Thomas;  Dorothy;  and

who  sold  Whitwell  Hall  and  Selside  Hall  to  his  brother  Francis,  married  a

Nicholas  and  John,  and  four  daughters,  whose  descendants  died  out,  a  dau.

George  on  Nov.  5,  171 5,  with  his  father,  who  provided  him  with  a  servant,  as 
he  wore  scarlet  uniform,  and  had  the  title  of  captain.  Notwithstanding,  their 
estate  by  some  means  escaped  forfeiture.  They  ceased,  however,  to  reside  at 
Selside  Hall,  and  settled  at  Leyburn,  in  Yorkshire,  where  Francis  died  in  1774, 
sine  prole.The  third  son,  George  Thornburgh,  had  issue,  a  son  Francis,  who  died 
unmarried  in  1769,  and  a  dau.  and  sole  heiress,  Mary,  who  married,  in  1769, 
Ralph  Riddell,  second  son  of  Thomas  Riddell,  of  Swinburne  Castle  and  Felton 
Park,  CO.  Northumberland,  by  Mary  Margaret,  dau.  of  WilHam  Widdrington, 
of  Cheeseburne  Grange,  co.  Northumberland.  Ralph  Riddell  succeeded  his 
maternal  uncle,  Ralph  Widdrington,  to  the  Cheeseburne  Grange  estate,  which 
is  still  the  seat  of  his  descendants.  Selside  Hall  and  the  Thornburgh  estate  thus 
passed  to  the  Riddells.  The  greater  part  of  the  old  hall  has  been  pulled  down, 
and  what  remains  is  now  a  farmhouse.  On  the  first  floor  of  the  central  block  of 
the  mansion,  between  the  two  towers,  is  a  priests'  hiding  place,  contrived  in  the 
thickness  of  the  cross-wall  carrying  the  chimney  of  the  banqueting  hall.  It  was 
approached  through  an  aperture  under  the  roof,  and  under  the  flooring  of  the 
room  was  another  aperture,  2^  ft  by  i^  ft,  leading  by  a  passage  three  ft.  long 
into  the  secret  chamber,  which  apparently  was  intended  to  afford  ventilation, 
and  by  which  provisions  could  be  passed. 

1  Bigland  Hall  had  been  the  seat  of  the  Biglands  from  time  immemorial. 
They  had  intermarried  with  many  leading  Catholic  families,  but  did  not  return 
a  pedigree  at  any  of  the  Visitations,  as  the  heralds  did  not  visit  this  part  of 
Lancashire,  north  of  the  sands.  They  appear  in  the  recusant  rolls  till  about 
this  period.  Henry  Bigland,  of  The  Grange,  named  in  the  text,  baptized  at 
Cartmel,  May  18,  1607,  was  the  only  son  of  James  Bigland,  of  The  Grange, 
second  son  of  Henry  Bigland,  of  Bigland  Hall,  and  his  wife  Isabel  Bellingham. 
He  married.  May  6,  1629,  Anne,  daughter  of  Rowland  Thornburgh,  of  Hamps- 
field  Hall,  by  Jane,  daughter  of  Thomas  Dalton,  of  Thumham  Hall,  and  dying 
in  1667,  had  issue — Henry,  who  died  in  1646;  James,  of  the  text;  George; 
Thomasine,  buried  March  2,  1645 ;  ^^'^  Anne,  of  the  text. 

2  The  will  of  Henry  Liptrott,  of  Thurnham,  was  proved  in  1667. 

*The  Haresnapes  came  with  the  Daltonsto  Thumham  from  their  Bispham 
estate  in  the  parish  of  Croston,  where  they  were  leaseholders,  and  appear  in 
the  rolls  from  1 591.  Of  the  Bispham  branch  were  two  Benedictines,  Bro.  Bene- 
dict Haresnape,  who  died  in  1760,  and  his  nephew,  Dom  Thomas  Placid 
Haresnape,  who  died  in  1807,  both  natives  of  Ormskirk.  William  Haresnape, 
named  in  the  text,  died  in  1682,  leaving  two  sons — Robert,  of  Thurnham,  a 
Catholic  non-juror  in  171 7;  and  William,  who  died  at  Thumham  in  1720. 
Robert's  will  was  proved  Feb.  22,  1728,  by  his  son  William  who,  dying  in  1759, 
left  a  daughter  Agnes,  wife  of  Richard  Gillow,  of  Ellel  Grange.

iThe  will  of  Thomas  Clarkson,  of  Heysham,  was  proved  in  1685.  The 
family  had  long  been  settled  at  Heysham. 

*  John  Cansfield,  of  Ellel,  was  a  recusant  in  1625,  and  Robert  Cansfield,  of 
the  same,  in  1625-35  seq.  The  will  of  Margaret  Cansfield,  of  Ellel,  was  proved 
in  1 67 1.  They  were  probably  of  remote  descent  from  the  Cansfields  of  Robert 
Hall. 

^The  pedigrees  of  the  Prestons  of  Ellel  and  Cockerham  appearing  in 
Baines'  Hist,  of  Lancashire,  iv,  658,  and  Burke's  Extinct  Baronetage,  are  abso- 
lutely untrustworthy  and  of  little  value.  They  are  supposed  to  have  been 
descended  from  John,  the  third  son  of  John  Preston,  of  Preston  Patrick  and 
Under  Levens  Hall,  in  Westmoreland,  and  the  Manor  of  Furness,  in  Lanca- 
shire, who  is  said  to  have  married  Margaret,  daughter  and  heiress  of  Roger 
ffytche,  of  Ellel,  and  to  have  had  sons  William,  Nicholas,  John,  Roger,  Thomas, 
and  Christopher.  The  parish  registers  of  Cockerham  and  the  recusant  rolls 
prove  the  inaccuracy  of  the  printed  pedigrees.  The  Prestons  of  Hillom,  in 
Cockersand,  yeomen  and  farmers,  were  unable  to  prove  their  priority  of 
descent  from  the  Prestons  of  the  Manor  at  the  time  that  Thomas  Preston  of 
Holker  apostatized  in  order  to  obtain  the  estates  when  Sir  Thomas  Preston, 
the  third  and  last  baronet,  became  a  Jesuit.  The  Prestons  of  Ellel  Grange, 
who  were  of  higher  social  position  and  staunch  Catholics,  were  undoubtedly  the 
nearest  male  heirs.  Nicholas  Preston,  of  Ellel  Grange,  was  a  recusant  in  1607- 
1619,  and  Alice  Preston,  widow,  of  Ellel  Grange,  in  1621,  seq.,  and  with  her 
son  William  in  1633.  The  widow's  will  was  proved  in  1638.  John  Preston,  of 
Ellel,  appears  in  the  rolls  for  162 1-2,  and  William,  of  Ellel  Grange,  and  his  wife 
Mary,  in  1625-6.  The  latter  appears  to  be  the  same  with  the  widow  of  the  text, 
administration  to  whose  estate  was  granted  in  1699.  Her  son  Christopher, 
named  in  the  text,  remained  on  the  rolls  to  the  end,  and  his  will  was  proved  in 
1689.  There  were  a  great  many  wills  of  Prestons,  of  Ellel  Grange,  proved  at 
Richmond.  The  present  owners  of  the  Grange,  which  they  acquired  by  purchase 
in  the  last  century,  cannot  be  shown  to  be  descended  from  the  original  stock. 
The  name  was  very  common  in  Cockersand  and  district,  and  the  registers  do 
not  corroborate  the  printed  pedigree.  It  is  very  probable  that  Bro.  Benedict 
Preston,  O.S.B.,  who  was  professed  at  Douay  in  1639,  and  died  before  his 
ordination  in  1640,  was  of  the  Ellel  Grange  family. 

*  Margaret  Corles  was  the  widow  of  William  Corles,  of  Ellel,  who  died  in 
1664.  The  will  of  William's  father,  John  Corles,  of  Ellel,  was  proved  in  1617,  and 
that  of  his  mother  in  1634.  The  will  of  John  Corles,  of  Ellel,  was  proved  in 
1732.  The  family  appears  on  the  rolls  from  the  commencement  in  1591.  The 
name  was  subsequently  spelt  "Corless."  The  Rev.  George  J.  A.  Corless,  D.D., 
descended  from  this  family,  died  at  Cottam  in  1865,  aged  seventy-three.  His 
mother  married  secondly  John  Carter,  of  Little  Poulton  Hall,  father  by  his 
first  wife  of  the  Rev.  William  Carter,  of  Samlesbury. 

''The  Morleys  of  Wennington  Hall,  in  the  parish  of  Melling,  returned  a 
pedigree  at  the  Visitation  of  1664,  and  a  very  full  one  appears  in  Foster's

Lancashire  Pedigrees,  1873.  Josias  Morley,  named  in  the  text,  was  the  second 
son  of  Francis  Morley,  of  Wennington  Hall,  by  Cassandra,  daughter  and  co- 
heiress of  Josias  Lambert,  of  Calton,  in  Craven,  and  he  was  born  Nov.  i,  161 2. 
He  married  Dorothy  Thompson,  July  8,  1642,  who  died  at  Hornby,  Oct.  10, 
1693,  and  had  issue — Francis,  born  1643,  died  1663;  William,  bom  1645,  died 
1664;  Valentine,  bom  1650,  died  1653;  Ignatius,  bom  1653,  died  1699,  having 
married  in  1675  Mary,  daughter  of  John  Colthurst,  of  Hornby,  by  whom  he  had 
two  sons  and  two  daughters,  who  all  died  young;  Cuthbert,  bom  1657,  steward 
to  the  Daltons,  who  died  at  Thumham  s.p.,  in  1714;  Cassandra,  bom  1648, 
died  1653;  and  Dorothy,  born  1655,  <^i6d  1658.  Thomas  Morley,  of  Wenning- 
ton Hall,  the  eldest  brother  of  Josias,  returned  a  pedigree  of  three  generations 
in  1664,  when  his  son  and  heir,  Robert,  was  fourteen  years  of  age.  Thomas  died 
in  1666,  and  a  few  years  later,  in  1673,  Wennington  Hall  was  sold  to  the 
Marsdens.  Hitherto  the  family  had  always  been  staunch  to  the  faith,  and 
appears  annually  in  the  recusant  rolls,  but  an  unfortunate  circumstance 
deprived  the  two  sons  of  Francis  Morley,  the  younger  brother  of  Josias,  of 
their  heritage.  Francis,  born  in  16 14,  having  engaged  in  the  royal  cause  during 
the  civil  wars,  was  forced  to  take  refuge  in  France.  His  wife,  Jane  Buskill,  of 
Capel  Side,  co.  Westmoreland,  supposing  that  he  was  dead,  and  over-per- 
suaded by  her  Protestant  relatives,  remarried  a  Cromwellian  captain.  Francis 
Morley  subsequently  returned  to  England  incognito,  and  finding  what  had  hap- 
pened returned  in  disgust  to  France,  where  he  died  a  Catholic.  His  sons,  Josias 
and  Francis,  had  been  sent  to  a  Protestant  school,  and  thus  were  robbed  of 
their  faith.  The  pedigree  does  not  help  to  identify  the  Thomas  Morley  of 
Yealand-cum-Silverdale,  Francis,  and  Dorothy  Morley,  of  Tatham-cum-Ireby, 
named  earlier  in  the  text. 

1  The  will  of  William  Chi  vail,  of  Hornby,  husband  of  Margaret,  and  father 
of  Henry,  was  proved  in  1662. 

2  The  Coulstons,  of  Hornby,  Heylot,  and  Wray,  in  the  parish  of  Melling, 
annually  appear  in  the  rolls.  The  wills  of  Gabriel  Coulston,  of  Wray,  and 
Henry  Coulston,  of  Heylot,  in  Roeburndale,  were  proved  in  1690,  and  that  of 
John  Coulston,  of  Heylot,  in  1705.  John  Coulston,  of  Heylot,  was  a  Catholic 
non-juror  in  17 17.  His  son  John,  of  the  same,  had  issue — John,  of  Barkinsgate, 
who  married  Mary  Croft  and  had  issue — John,  of  whom  hereafter;  Joshua,  bapt. 
Sept.3,i769,whohad  issue  John,  of  Hawkshead,Bolton-le-Sands,  banker, o.s.^., 
Elizabeth,  spr,  and  a  daughter  married  to  William  Knowles,  whose  son,  John 
Knowles.of  Well  House,  in  Scotforth,  was  father  of  the  present  Mr  Knowles,  who 
inherited  Hawkshead  from  his  great  uncle,  John  Coulston,  the  banker ;  Thomas, 
of  Well  House,  in  Scotforth,  born  in  April,  1772,  who  married  Elizabeth,  sister 
of  William  Knowles,  and  dying  May  21,  1848,  had  issue  John,  baptized  Jan. 
10,  1799,  oh.  inf.,  John,  bapt.  Apr.  29,  1801,  oh.  young,  and  Thomas,  of  Well 
House,  baptized  Sept.  29,  1809,  who  died  a  bachelor  in  1856,  having  founded 
a  chantry  chapel  in  St  Peter's  Church  at  Lancaster;  William,  of  Lancaster, 
baptized  Augt  18,  1776,  who  by  his  wife  Grace,  who  died  Feb.  9,  181 5,  had 
issue  a  son  John,  baptized  Jan.  28,  181 1 ;  Gabriel,  of  Lancaster,  born  Dec.  24, 
1779;  and  a  daughter  married  to  Thomas  Croskell,  of  Bulk.  John,  the  eldest 
son  of  John,  of  Bowrem  House,  Lancaster,  married  Margaret,  sister  of  Seth 
Walmesley,  of  Preston  (she  died  at  Lancaster  Feb.  2,  1864),  and  had  issue — 
Gabriel,  born  Nov.  5,  1818;  Joseph,  born  Dec.  18,  1819,  who  died  unmarried;

'  From  its  position  Newsholme,  in  the  parish  of  Wressle. 

*  William  Langdale,  of  Langthorpe  in  Ellerby,  petitioned  to  compound  for 
two- thirds  of  his  estate  in  1652,  saying  there  was  "  never  any  charge  or  cause 
of  delinquency  against  him,"  only  his  recusancy.  The  result  is  not  stated,  but  of 
that  there  can  be  little  doubt. 

'  The  name  of  William  Young,  of  Elsternwick,  yeoman,  appears  in  the 
Royalist  Composition  Papers,  but  no  particulars  are  given. 

*  See  page  266  note. 

^  Query  Brackenholme  in  Hemingborough  parish. 

•in  1653  Peter  Fussey,  of  Beeford,  husbandman,  petitioned  to  be  allowed 
to  contract  for  two-thirds  of  his  forty  shilling  interest,  on  account  of  his 
recusancy.  A  "  no  Papist  or  delinquent  "  was  allowed  to  have  a  sequestration 
off,  having  married  the  granddaughter  of  Robert  Fussy  or  Fussie,  a  recusant 
lately  deceased  in  the  same  parish.

*  George  Acklam,  of  Bewholm,  gentleman,  had  fines  of  £$86  13s.  gd. 
assessed  against  him  in  1653.  The  result  is,  perhaps,  shewn  here  as  "  Agric." 
And  it  was  proposed  to  fine  him  and  his  wife  ;^36o  per  annum  further. 

*  Robert,  son  of  Thomas  Dolman,  of  Badsworth,  and  his  wife  (second) 
Barbara,  dau.  of  Sir  Thomas  Metham.  He  was  aged  thirty-nine  in  1665,  and 
married  Catharine,  dau.  of  Edmund  Thorold  of  Hough,  Co.  Lincoln,  and  had 
on  September  7,  1665,  Robert,  set.  6;  Thomas,  set.  i;  Catharine,  Barbara  and 
Frances.  He  had  been  in  arms  against  the  Parliament  and  the  fine  for  his 
delinquency  was  £i,i4S  15s. 

*  Query  Bolton  in  Bishop-Wilton  parish. 

^The  frontispiece  of  C.R.S.  vol.  i.  is  the  permit  to  Thomas  Owst  to  visit 
his  sick  wife.  It  is  pleasant  to  come  across  nine  members  of  his  family  equally 
staunch  to  the  Faith.  The  name  is  repeated  in  other  convictions.  It  may  be  the 
same  as  Aust,  Co.  Gloucester,  and  Hoste. 

•Vol.  IV.  C.R.S.  has  reference  to  this  family.  The  spelling  of  the  name 
is  doubtful,  and  seems  to  be  Awdas  or  Audas.  It  will  be  found  as  Audhus  lower 
down,  impljdng  Old  House;  but  in  a  gazetteer  of  Yorkshire  of  1828,  there  is 
mention  of  Audzus  hamlet  in  the  township  of  Woodsetts  and  parish  of  South 
Anston,  which  may  supply  a  solution.  See  Cath.  Rec.  Soc.  rv,  358-9.

1  Yokefleet  in  Howden  parish. 

*The  only  entry  in  the  Blacktoft  Registers  of  the  name  is  "  1706,  Anne 
Otterboum,  December  22,"  buried.  But  the  Registers  are  defective,  commencing 
in  1700.  An  extract  for  1637  is  taken  from  the  Archbishop's  transcript. 

3  Osgodby  in  the  parish  of  Hemingborough. 

*  There  is  in  1653-4  a  short  notice  for  his  petition  to  compound  for  an 
estate  of  £1"^  13s.  4d.  for  his  recusancy.  Thomas  Watkinson,  of  Menthorpe,  who 
sufiEered  martyrdom  with  Robert  Thorpe,  priest,  whom  he  had  entertained, 
May  31,  1 591,  was  probably  of  the  same  family.  Robert  Watkinson,  priest  and 
martyr,  April  17,  1602,  was  born  in  Hemmingborough,  and  probably  of  the 
family. 

^  A  Simon  Tasker  (indexed  as  Stephen,  C.R.S.^  iv,  373),  a  wheelwright,  of 
Acaster-Malbis,  query  Naburn  in  that  parish.  Mr  W.  M.  Baines,  in  his  Old 
Naburn^  p.  87,  gives  his  father's  name  as  Joseph,  and  five  later  generations. 
But  he  says  that  in  the  Hemingborough  registers  there  is,  "Simon  Tasker,  of 
Menthorpe,  buried  10  January,  1680,"  presumably  the  one  in  the  text,  the  Rev. 
W.  Peter  Wright  informing  me  that  the  wife  Anne,  was  buried  28  Dec.  1679, 
and  that  the  name  of  Simon  T.  is  common  after  1609.  Elizabeth  Tasker,  lay- 
sister  at  York,  may  be  related.

^  In  the  parish  of  Stanwick  St  John. 

*  Challoner  says  that  Edmund  Catherick,  priest  and  martyr,  is  of  this 
family.  Anthony  Caterick,  of  Stanwick  St  John,  and  his  wife  Joyce  Pennington 
appear  in  the  lists  of  recusants  of  1604,  16 14,  16 16,  etc.  In  1623  Anthony  C, 
junior,  is  said  to  be  an  escaped  outlaw.  It  is  his  wife  Isabell  Grey,  wife  of 
Anthony  C,  gentleman,  a  recusant  in  1641,  together  with  Joyce,  widow,  and 
probably  four  of  her  children,  WilUam  and  John,  yeomen,  Bridget  and  Marga- 
ret, spinsters.  {N.R.Rec.iv,  198.)  The  names  are  in  Foster's  Yorks  Visitations. 
WilHam  Penington,  gentleman,  is  also  mentioned  as  a  recusant.  In  1638 
Anthony  C.  and  his  son  John  sold  the  manor  of  Stanwick  St  John  to  Hugh 
Smithson,  haberdasher  of  London  (perhaps  the  Hugh,  of  Tottenham,  Middlesex, 
for  which  county  he  was  M.P.,  and  Armin,  Snaith,  W.R.  York,  who  left  liis 
estates  to  Sir  Hugh,  his  nephew,  who  apostatized  and  was  father  of  the  first 
Duke  of  Northumberland  of  that  family.  John  C.  (whose  wife  Isabell  is  men- 
tioned) applied  to  contract  for  his  sequestrated  estate  in  January,  1653-4 
{Yorks.  ArchcBl.  Rec.  Ser.  xx.  188). 

2  Fourteen  Manfields  or  Mansfields  of  the  parish  were  recusants  in  1641.

^Heworth  in  North  Riding. 

*The  designation  of  "  labourer  "  is  often  used  to  people  of  good  condition. 
The  Thwings  of  Heworth  were  such.  They  had  probably  no  profession  or  trade, 
and  the  persecutions  they  endured  must  have  reduced  them  to  labour  for  a 
living.  The  family  is  referred  to  in  vol.  rv. 

3  Hinderskelf e  now  known  as  Castle-Howard. 

*The  name  of  "Anne  wife  of  Philip  Kendall  of  Hinderskelfe,  yeoman, 
appears  as  a  recusant.  May  4,  1641."  To  this  the  late  Canon  Atkinson  puts  a 
footnote,  "  Beyond  doubt  the  notorious  Informer,  etc."  This  Philip  K.  seems  to 
have  made  a  living  by  informing  against  tradesmen  for  engrossing  and  such 
offences  against  the  law,  and  his  wife  is  proceeded  against  for  recusancy. 

^In  N.  Riding.  ^Skewsby  in  Dalby  Parish. 

'  Allan  Ayscough,  of  Skewsby,  in  the  parish  of  Dalby,  set  ^^  in  1666,  son  of 
Christopher  A.,  of  Richmond.  His  wife  Anne  was  dau.  of  Thomas  Brathwayt. 
They  were  recusants  in  1641.  He  paid  a  fine  of  ;^349  13s.  4d.  for  his  recusancy  in 

1653.

1  Heworth,  N.R.      *  In  the  parish  of  HaHfax.      ^  In  the  parish  of  HaUfax. 

*The  family  of  Hanson  (not  Hansom),  of  Rastrick,in  the  parish  of  HaUfax, 
commences  with  Roger  "  Hanson  "  or  "  de  Rastrick,"  temp.  Henry  III.  Mr 
John  WilHam  Clay,  F.S.A.,  who  contributed  a  pedigree  to  Dugdale's  Visitation 
Continued,  Vol.  i,  and  has  transcribed  and  printed  the  Registers  (15  59-1640) 
of  Elland,  at  his  own  expense  for  the  restoration  fund  of  the  church,  expresses 
his  surprise  that  any  of  the  family  should  be  Cathohc,  that  they  were  more  in 
the  dissenting  line.  He  says  there  are  two  of  the  name — one  bap.  September  28, 
1628,  son  of  Robert  H,  and  Sarah  Thorpe  his  wife,  mentioned  in  his  father's  will 
1634;  and  another  of  Slead  Hall,  son  of  Arthur  H.,  of  Brighouse,  bap.  Novem- 
ber 8,  1629,  who  had  a  son  Richard,  and  was  perhaps  a  Quaker.  This  may  be 
one  of  the  "fanaticks"  mentioned  by  Christopher  Barnard  in  the  preamble 
above,  but  Henry  Hanson,  of  HaHfax,  was  reported  as  a  Papist  in  1691  (J.  H. 
Turner's  Nonconformist  Registers,  163).  Foster  tried  to  connect  the  Hanson 
family  of  Osmondthorpe  and  Adel  with  that  of  Rastrick ;  but  in  Adel  Registers 
in  1668  "  Hansum  "  appears ;  in  Leeds  Registers  in  1692  '  Hansome  of  Osmond- 
thorpe" {Thoresby  Soc.  v.  54  and  x,  287).  Paver  gives  the  marriage  licence  of 
"William  Hansome  (of  that  family)  to  Mary  Portington  "  in  1709,  his  second 
and  her  third  marriage,  his  first  wife  being  Grace  Whipp.  Mary  Newsome's 
marriages  to  William  Bucktroutin  1690  (omitted  by  Foster),  and  to  Henry  Por-

"Sir  Thomas  Gascoigne's  name,  and  his  great  efforts  to  revive  the  faith, 
his  infamous  trial  and  great  sufferings,  render  his  name  one  never  to  be  forgot- 
ten. Our  oldest  convent  at  York  is  his  monument.  Mr  George  Denison  Lumb, 
Hon.  Sec.  Yorks  Par.  Reg.  Soc,  has  brought  out  the  Registers  of  Barwick  in 
Elmet,  as  this  is  in  the  press,  too  late  for  use. 

*The  Rev.  Zachary  Steward,  D.D.,  rector  of  Easington  in  Cleveland,  had 
a  son  of  the  same  name,  Governor  of  Mulgrave  castle,  in  the  parish  of  Lythe, 
during  the  Civil  War.  He  surrendered  his  trust  to  the  parliamentary  forces  in 
1644,  taking  precaution  that  his  own  estate  and  property  should  not  suffer.  He 
was  about  fifty-eig^ht  at  the  Visitation  of  1666,  his  daughter  Mary  being- the  only 
child  named.  The  property,  at  Lofthouse,  or  Loftus  in  Cleveland,  came  into  the 
hands  of  Zachary  Steward  Moore,  who  squandered  it  in  riotous  living-^  and  was

probably  the  Zacharie  Steward  Moore,  of  whom  there  is  a  double  entry  in  the 
Hackness  registers  {J^orks.  Par.  Reg.  Soc.  xxv,  98)  born  23  and  bap.  24  Sept. 
1672,  the  son  of  Thomas  Moore,  of  Hackness,  gent.,  by  "his  second  wife,  the 
only  daughter  of —  Stewarde  the  parish  minister."  Thomas  Moore  had  had  a 
son  James  bap.  Sept.  10,  1661,  "privately,  it  is  supposed,  by  a  popish  preist, 
being  a  straunger  then  at  the  manner  Mr  Thomas  Moore  was  then  at  London." 

^  Knowing,  as  we  do,  the  numbers  of  secret  baptisms  and  marriages,  of 
the  latter  taking  place  in  other  parishes,  and  the  way  that  registers  were  kept 
or  not  kept,  we  may  congratulate  ourselves  on  obtaining  a  few  fragments  about 
this  Catholic  labourer  from  the  Hackness  registers.  Our  work  is  not  so  much  to 
re-chronicle  the  acts  of  the  great,  as  to  preserve  the  memory  of  such  humble, 
unknown  confessors. 

1669.  Two  Children  of  James  Boyes  of  Hackness  were  borne  the  23rd  of 
November,  unhaptized ,  he  being  a  Papist.

ing  parish  of  Kirkby  Malzeard,  appear  in  Peacocks'  Yorkshire  Catholics  in 
1604.  This  appUes  to  many  other  names  in  this  list.  The  parish  registers  of 
Hampsthwaite  have  been  printed  by  the  Yorkshire  Parish  Register  Society, 
Vol.  XIII.  Buck  seems  a  common  name,  and  there  are  two  Roberts,  but  his 
burial  shows  that  at  the  time  of  his  death  he  was  resident  in  the  parish  of  Ripley 
"  1672-3.  Robert  Buck  de  Clint  papist,  Feb.  ye  19." 

^  There  are  few  Shaws  in  the  Hampsthwaite  Registers,  and  no  Frances. 

2  Mary  wife  of  Silvester  Hebden  was  buried  August  8,  1684;  he  29  March, 
1694.  He  only  appears  in  the  Registers  in  1658,  but  their  descendants  are 
recorded. 

2  Seems  a  mistake  for  Hoppefton.  Her  burial  is  registered  March  24, 1680-1. 

*She  was  buried  at  Hampsthwaite,  October  25,  1673. 

^The  registers  contain  the  baptism,  with  others,  of  Catterin,  dau.  of  Steven 
Smith,  August  28,  1659;  the  burial  of  Stephen  Smith  of  Feliscliffe  hamlet. 
May  II,  1671 ;  the  marriage  of  Tho.  Rundali  and  Katharine  Smith,  May  8,  1690; 
and  "  1738  Catharine  Rundali,  wid.  aged  102,  bur.  Sep.  23." 

•"  1672-3  Ann  Gratewood,  buried  February  ye  6th,  she  was  a  papist." 
This  and  the  civil  marriage  of  Marie  Graytwood  toWiniamMilner,May  15, 1656, 
are  the  only  times  the  name  appears  in  the  registers. 

'The  burials  of  three  Robert  Fairburns  from  1669  to  1676  make  this 
confusing.  ^  In  Knaresborough. 

'Robert  Plumpton,  of  Plumpton,  was  aged  twenty-one  at  the  Visitation 
1665,  but  is  not  shown  to  be  married,  their  pedigree  going  back  to  the  Conquest.

^The  old  Catholic  family  of  Tempest  of  Broug-hton  is  with  us  still  with  a 
pedigree  of  eight  centuries.  Mrs  Tempest  of  Broug-hton,  who  has  made  a  careful 
study  of  it,  oblig-ed  with  this  section  of  her  elaborate  collections,  by  which  it 
appears  that  Richard  was  third  son  of  Sir  Stephen  Tempest  of  Broughton  (1553- 
1625),  second  by  his  second  marriage  to  Katharine,  dau.  of  Henry  Lawson,  of 
Nesham,  Co.  Durham.  He  mar.  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  Nicholas  Grimshawe,  of 
Clayton-le-Moors,  Lancashire,  and  was  quarter-master  in  the  royal  army,  and 
had  to  claim  allowance  from  the  indigent  soldiers'  fund  in  1663.  His  residence 
at  Broughton  seems  to  be  subsequent  to  his  sale,  before  1648,  of  a  farm  at 
Bracewell,  where  a  branch  of  the  family  resided.  His  children  were:  Stephen, 
slain  in  the  King's  service;  Richard,  said  to  be  a  lieutenant  in  Sir  Thomas 
Tyldesley's  regiment;  John,  in  the  text  below;  Robert,  secretary  to  his  cousin, 
Sir  Stephen  Tempest  (1617-72),  died  unmd;  Katharine  (York)  in  the  text  below; 
perhaps  Elizabeth,  ob.  inf.;  Ellen  and  Elizabeth.  Richard  Tempest  died  1670,  his 
wife  surviving  him.

^John,  third  son  of  the  above  Richard  Tempest  and  Elizabeth  Grimshawe, 
mar.  Jane  Meriall,  a  widow  from  Cumberland,  who  kept  the  inn  at  Broughton, 
after  his  death,  being  buried  there  Aug.  12,  1718.  His  death  uncertain. 

^John,  son  of  William  York  and  his  wife  Agnes  Simpson,  and  nephew  of 
Sir  John  York  of  Gowthwaite.  His  wife  was  Katharine,  eldest  dau.  of  Richard 
Tempest,  of  Broughton,  above.  They  had — Richard,  steward  to  the  Broughton 
estates,  his  wife's  baptismal  name  only,  Elizabeth,  being  known ;  John,  who 
became  a  Jesuit;  and  Stephen. 

3  Thomas,  third  son  of  Stephen  Tempest  of  Broughton  (son  and  heir  of 
Sir  Stephen,  1553-1625),  and  Susan,  dau.  of  William  Oglethorpe,  of  Roundhay, 
in  Whitkirk  and  Thorner  parishes,  by  his  first  wife  Susan,  dau.  of  Edward 
Tyrwhitt,  of  Stainfield,  Co.  Lincoln.  His  father  left  him  the  Oglethorpe  property 
at  Roundhay,  subject  to  annuities  of  ;;^30  each  to  his  sisters — Elizabeth,  a 
Franciscan  nun  at  Nieuport,  and  Mary,  a  Benedidline  at  Cambrai,  and  other 
charges.  Sir  Ralph  Hansby,  of  Tickhill,  and  Lady  Hansby  laid  claim  to  Round- 
hay. There  seems  no  reason  why  he  did  not  succeed  his  brother  Stephen  in  the 
Broughton  estates  in  1672,  as  they  were  on  friendly  terms.  Mrs  Tempest  thinks 
that  some  mutual  understanding  existed  why  his  son  Stephen  should  succeed. 
From  his  brother  he  had  a  money  allowance  of  £40  per  annum  and  other 
benefits,  whilst  his  son  added  another  ;^5o.  He  married,  about  1651,  Anne,  dau. 
and  heir  of  Henry  Scrope  of  Danby,  by  Anne,  dau.  of  Sir  Edward  Plumpton, 
of  Plumpton,  and  had  five  sons  and  five  daughters. 

*  Recusant  in  1678. 

5  Elizabeth  Pearson,  widow,  was  a  recusant  in  169 1. 

•Lawrence  and  Katharine  Champney  and  their  dau.  Katharine  appear  as

1  There  are  several  entries  of  the  Grocock  family  in  the  Kippax  Register 
{Yorks.  Par.  Reg.  Soc.  x).  These  seem  to  apply,  "  1670,  Gulielmi  [sic]  Grocoke 
sepultus  eodem  die  [Aug.  4]  Magister  carbonarium,"  colliers  or  charcoal  burners. 
"  Francisca  uxor  Gulielmi  Grococke  sepulta  sexto  die  Septembris  1670."  "  1683 
Richardus  Grocock  sepult.  May  4*."  "  1698.  Elizab.  Grocock  sepult.  Romae 
[Aug.]  7*"' 

'  Prince  is  the  commonest  name  in  the  registers  but  it  would  be  hazard- 
ous to  conjecture  that  the  "  Uxor  Thomse  Prince  "  buried  May  18,  1695 .  referred 
to  her. 

*The  conjunction  of  Gerard  and  Salvin  so  common  in  the  old  Catholic 
family  seems  curious  so  described,  and  there  is  a  burial  of  Mr  Ralph  [PSoliene] 
November  28,  1641 ;  and  a  civil  marriage  of  Anthony  F[o]ulshurt  of  Barnbow, 
p.  of  Barwick  in  Elmet  to  Ann  Salvin  of  Kippax,  July  10,  1656,  at  which  the 
above  William  Growcocke  was  a  witness.  There  seems  a  connexion  with  the 
Gascoigne  collieries  and  those  at  Allerton  Bywater  near  Kippax. 

*The  name  is  very  common,  and  it  may  be  well  only  to  refer  to  the 
John  Atkinson  of  Ilkeley,  C.R.S.  rv.  362. 

*  Eleanor,  dau.  of  Joscelyn  Percy  of  Beverley,  whose  estates  were  seques- 
trated during  the  Commonwealth  for  his  recusancy.  She  left  no  issue.  Her 
mother  was  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  William  Fitz-William  of  Mablethorpe,  E.R.

^  The  old  Catholic  family  of  Thelveton  or  Thelton  is  no  long-er  seated  at  Thel- 
veton, the  last  squire  of  the  family  having  sold  the  estate  about  1870.  Thomas 
Havers  of  Winfarthing-  purchased  the  manor  in  1592.  The  recusant  in  the  text 
was  his  grandson,  being-  son  of  John  Havers  and  Elizabeth,  dau.  of  John  Tin- 
dall  of  Banham.  His  wife  was  Susan  Brook  of  Whitchurch,  her  name  following- 
his.  The  earliest  known  members  of  the  family  served  important  offices  to  the 
first  dukes  of  Norfolk.  The  minutes  of  the  Catholic  Club,  1793-8,  of  which 
William  Havers  was  Hon.  Secretary,  have  been  transcribed  for  printing-  by  this 
society.  The  representative  of  the  family,  Kenneth  Havers,  is  an  adlive  Catholic 
in  London,  and  his  sister  Dorothy,  the  wife  of  Professor  Georg-e  Simonds  Boul- 
g-er,  has  written  several  novels.  '^  Later  as  Symmonds. 

^  T[h]ompson  is  not  a  personal  name,  but  that  of  a  parish  in  Norfolk,  formerly 
Thomeston,  a  dozen  miles  from  Brandon  Parva.

of  Thomas  Madeley,  of  Denston,  and  g^randson  of  Anthony  C,  of  Rug-ge  and 
Grendon,  Co.  Warwick.  No  marriage  shown  in  the  Visitation  of  1663  {William

(the  elder  brother  William  C,  of  Ingestre,  being  aged  three  in  1614),  seemingly 
also  unmarried.  They  were  descendants  of  the  de  Chetwynds,  of  Chetwynd, 
Shropshire,  lemp.  Hen.  III. 

2 Several  baptisms  of  William  and  Jane  Ginder  appear  in  the  Rocester

*Anne  dau.  of  Henry  and  Anne  Ginder,  bap.  Nov.  2,  1647,  seems  to  follow 
her  father. 

^Baptisms  of  children  of  Robert  and  Margaret  Hyron  or  Hyarne  appear 
in  1635  and  1637;  but  the  spelling  in  the  text  is  more  general.

'  Evidently  of  the  family  of  the  Earls  of  Huntingdon  [Cath.  Rec.  Soc.  iv]. 
See  the  following-  note.  See  first  names  on  p.  284. 

^  Query  Kinver,  formerly  Kinfare. 

^  Catharine  Winford,  who  was  of  the  Hastings  family,  earls  of  Huntingdon, 
in  her  will  of  1698,  mentions  Mr  Hammerton,  of  Dunsley,  in  Kinver  parish;  also 
Anthony,  Catharine,  Elizabeth,  John,  Olivia  and  William  Hammerton  [Payne's 
Records  of  English  Catholics,  1715.  in  ayid  112].  A  connection  may  be  made  with 
the  Hammertons  of  Purston-Jackling,  W.R.  York.  \Surtees  Soc.  xxxvi  and 
Payne's  Nonjurors  1715]. 

^  Perhaps  Edward,  fifth  son  of  Peter  Giffard,  of  Chillington  and  Frances 
dau.  of  Walter  Fowler,  of  St  Thomas's  Priory  near  Stafford.  He  mar.  Winefride 
dau.  of  Alban  Draycote,  descendant  of  the  Draycotes  of  Paynsley, 

^  Wolverhampton  was  a  great  centre  of  Catholicity,  being  at  one  time 
known  as  "Little  Rome."  At  the  same  time  it  ought  to  be  stated  that  many  of 
the  names  given  below  are  those  of  the  old  county  gentry.  In  legal  documents 
it  was  usual  to  describe  persons  as  "lately  of"  or  "  nuper  de^^  to  avoid  the  pos- 
sibility of  an  indictment  being  made  invalid  by  removal. 

*  Robert,  younger  son  of  William  Moseley,  formerly  Molesley,  of  Bilston, 
and  Lucretia,  dau.  of  Thomas  Whitgreave,  of  Bridgford.  At  the  Visitation  of 
1663,  his  wife  is  described  as  Elizabeth  dau.  of  Thomas  Skrimshire  of  Johnson. 

^  Perhaps  son  of  Edward,  third  son  of  John  Erdeswick,  and  Mary  Griffith, 
mentioned  in  his  uncle  Sampson's  will. 

^  Mr  H.  Sydney  Grazebrook,  editor  of  the  Visitation  of  1663-4,  points  to  a 
pedigree  by  Mr  Joseph  Morris  {Herald  and  Genealogist  v.  33]  showing  that 
these  Grosvenors  were  really  Gravenors,  taking  their  name  from  High  Grave- 
nor  in  the  parish  of  Claverly.  His  father  was  Solomon;  he  had  an  uncle  Josuah 
and  relatives  Jonas,  etc.,  so  his  name  may  belong  rather  to  Puritan  genealogy.

THE  CATHOLIC  REGISTERS  OF  THE  DOMESTIC  CHAPEL 

FORMERLY  AT  CRONDON  PARK,  ESSEX.  WITH 

SOME  NOTES  RELATING  TO  HOPCAR, 

LANCASHIRE. 

Contributed  by  Francis  A.  R.  Langton  and  Joseph  S. 

Hansom.  Introduction  by  the  Rev. 

William  H.  Cologan. 

Crondon  Park,  now  a  farm  in  the  parish  of  Stock,  or  Stock  Harvard,  is 
situated  four  miles  from  Ingatestone  and  five  miles  from  Chelmsford.  As  is 
clear  from  the  registers  the  priest  at  Crondon  served  the  villages  of  Stock, 
Ramsi  (Ramsden)  Heath,  the  Hanningfields  (West,  East  and  South), 
Downham  and  Chelmsford.  It  is  singular  that  no  mention  is  made  of  the 
little  town  of  Billericay  which  is  but  two  and  a  half  miles  distant. 

The  following  extracts  from  the  parish  registers  of  Stock-cum- Rams- 
den Bellhouse  have  reference  to  Catholics  within  the  mission  of  Crondon 
Park.  The  old  register  book  of  Stock  embraces  the  period  from  1568  to  1804, 
while  that  of  Ramsden  Bellhouse  contains  entries  of  which  the  earliest  is 
dated  1562  and  the  latest  1779. 

From  the  Stock  Parish  Register. 

George   Stathum   a  recusant  of  Buttsbury  drovv^nlng  him- 
self in  one  of  the  Park  ponds  was  buried  the  24*^  May  (1655). 

Four  sons  of  John  Maskell  in  June  1745.* 

Richard  Billing  from  Crondon  Park  a  Romish  priest  y«  3'"^  of 
March  1769.

William  Butt  born  aug.  24  1792.  Ann  the  d"^  of  William  Butt  & 
Ellen  his  v^ife  was  born  Nov  21  1707.  mem^.  These  children  were 
born  in  Stock  Parish  but  not  baptised  by  y^  minister  their  parents 
being  Papists. 

The  following  Mason  and  Berington  burial  entries  are  from  th^  same 
registers. 

1654  Ap.  28.  Elizabeth  Mason,  d.  of  Thomas  &  Elizabeth  his 

his  wife,  buried  at  Buttsbury.

1818  Ap.  21.  Philip  Berington  son  of  Thos,  died  at  Stock 

From  the  Ramsden  Bellhouse  Registers. 

The  first  entry  among  the  burials  is 

Father  Spacye  was  buried  the  XV  day  of  February,  A°  1562. 
This  Father  Spacye  was  not  Rector  of  Ramsden  Bellhouse,  for  the  Rector  at 
that  time  was  John  Forrest  who  had  succeeded  to  the  living  in  1549,  dur- 
ing the  Calvinistic  ascendancy,  and  continued  in  possession  till  his  death 
in  1577,  but  doubtless  one  of  the  many  unfortunate  monks  expelled  from  their 
monasteries  by  Henry  VIII,  and  given  hospitahty  by  some  pious  CathoHc 
family  in  or  near  Ramsden  Bellhouse.  ^ 

The  following  notes  on  Crondon  Park  have  been  supplied  by  Mr  Joseph 
Gillow: 

"Crondon  Park  had  long  been  the  property  of  the  Barons  Petre,  though 
the  family  do  not  appear  ever  to  have  occupied  it.  It  is  said  that  the  Catho- 
lic family  of  Mason  were  tenants  for  250  years.  The  chapel  which  was  part 
of  the  ancient  banqueting  hall,  was  preserved  until  1832.  It  was  then  dis- 
mantled, subsequently  the  house  was  razed  to  the  ground,  and  no  traces  of 
a  park  remain. § 

The  following  names  appear  as  incumbents  at  Crondon  Park: 

Father  James  Blair,  S.J.,  here  1744  for  some  time. 

He  Nephew  of  Thomas  (1673-1 755)  Bering-ton,  priest,  son  of  Thomas  Beringf- 
ton  of  Moat  Hall,  Shropshire,  and  Anne,  dau.  of  John  Berington  of  Winsley,  co. 
Hereford  (Gillow's  Z>?<^.  £11^.  Caths.,  I.  199). 

"fi  This  may  be  received  with  caution.  If  Spacj'e  were  a  priest,  his  desig-- 
nation  at  that  time  would  probably  be  "Sir"  or  "Dan"  or  other  abbreviation 
of  "Dominus."  "Father"  is  more  likely  to  be  a  term  of  familiarity,  reverent  or 
irreverent,  as  "Paterfamilias,"  "Widow,"  "Gossip,'*  "Good-wife,"  "Uncle," 
etc.,  with  which  register  searchers  are  familiar. — J.S.H. 

§  There  are  some  remains  of  walls  and  some  fine  trees  are  still  growing- 
near  the  modern  farm  house.— W.H.C. 


CRONDON  PARK  REGISTERS  329 

Father  Adam  Pigott,  S.J.,  younger  son  of  Adam  Pigott  of  London, 
and  brother  to  Nathaniel  Pigott,  the  eminent  Catholic  barrister  of  the  Inner 
Temple,  succeeded  Father  Blair,  and  died  here  April  30, 1751,  aged  78.  He 
was  a  friend  of  Pope,  who  wrote  at  his  request  the  well-known  version  of  the 
hymn  of  St  Francis  Xavier,  O  Deus  a?no  'J'e: 

O  God  I  love  Thee,  not  to  gain 
The  joys  of  Thy  eternal  reign. 

Father  Luke  Pippard  alias  Stanfield,  S.J.,  died  here  Jan.  5,  1761, 
aged  45. 

Father  Robert  Eyston,  S.J.,  according  to  his  own  entries  was  here  in 
1759,  if  not  before,  till  death,  Jan.  16,  1766,  aged  36. 

Father  Richard  Billinge  alias  Laurenson,  S.J.,  a  native  of  Billinge, 
CO.  Lancaster,  succeeded  Father  Eyston,  and  died  here  Feb.  28, 1769,  aged 
56;  and  was  buried  at  Stock,  March  3. 

Father  Robert  Cole,  S.J.,  came  1769  till  December,  1805.  The  Rev. 
Thomas  Berington,  whose  name  appears  as  officiating  between  the  years 
1788  and  1792,  may  have  supplied  from  Ingatestone  Hall,  where  he  died 
Oct.  24,  1805;  but  the  fact  that  he  baptized  three  of  the  Wood  family  may 
have  meaning. 

Pere  Jean-Baptiste  Aubert,  a  French  refugee  from  the  Diocese  de 
Coutances,  succeeded  Father  Cole  and  remained  till  1818.  He  was  subse- 
quently at  Thorndon  Hall. 

Pere  Albin  Danneville,  another  French  emigr6,  signs  the  registers 
from  April  3,  1818  to  July  15,  1822.  It  will  be  noted  that  he  signs  himself 
Archpriest. 

Rev.  James  Dunn  signs  July  31,  1825,  to  June  29,  1826. 

Rev.  P.  J.  Mark  O'Reilly,  1827,  and  left  for  Ingatestone  Hall. 

Rev.  Daniel  O'Leary  took  charge  of  the  congregation,  in  all  sixty-four 
souls,  Sept.  20, 1827,  till  July  2,  1831." 

One  of  the  oldest  inhabitants  of  Stock  says  that  in  1835  there  was  a 
cottage  in  the  lane  leading  to  Crondon  from  the  Stock  road,  which  was  the 
residence  of  the  Catholic  priest.  At  that  time  the  priest  was  a  Frenchman, 
and  my  informant  states  that  a  field  close  to  Stock  Common  is  still  called 
"  Frenchman's  Field,"  from  the  fact  that  the  French  priest,  being  a  resident 
of  Stock,  claimed  a  portion  of  the  then  rather  extensive  common  land  and 
cultivated  it.  Who  this  French  priest  was  I  have  not  been  able  to  discover, 
as  the  diocesan  records  are  very  scanty  with  regard  to  Essex,  and  of  the 
priests  serving  Crondon  Park  only  the  Revv.  James  Dunn  and  D.  O'Leary 
are  named. 

Yet  at  the  time  when  Father  O'Leary  left  Crondon  in  1830  there, 
must  have  been  a  nucleus  of  Catholics — "in  all  sixty-four  souls."  The  Masons 
of  Crondon  Park,  impoverished  by  many  fines  for  non-attendance  at  the 
parish  church,  found  themselves  unable  to  continue  the  tenancy,  but  there 
were  other  members  of  the  family  at  Foxburgh,  Forest  Lodge  (both  in 
Stock),  Great  Maskells*  and  Baddow,  six  miles  distant.  And  Stock  Hall — 
now  called  "Greenwoods" — was  held  by  the  Eldridges,  also  Catholics.  The 
Eldridges  succeeded  the  Beringtons  in  the  possession  of  Stock  Hall.  Thomas 
Berington  of  Moat  Hall,  Salop,  married  Aim,  daughter  of  Mr  Bates  of  Stock 
Hall,  and  on  the  death  of  the  latter  the  property  passed  into  the  possession 
of  his  daughter,  and  the  Beringtons  came  to  Stock.  Here,  in  1748,  was  born 
Charles  Berington,  afterwards  Bishop  of  Hieroeoesarea  and  coadjutor  to 
Bishop  Talbot,  and,  on  the  death  of  the  latter.  Vicar- Apostolic  of  the  Mid- 
land District.  Tombs  of  the  Mason,  Berington,  and  Eldridge  families  are 
in  the  Stock  churchyard.  But  sometime  between  1832  and  1840  the  mission 
at  Crondon  Park  was  discontinued,  and  the  district  was  served  from  Ingate-

stone  by  the  Rev.  George  Last  (afterwards  Canon).  In  1852  the  mansion 
of  Lily'stone  Hall  was  tenanted  by  the  Hon.  Arthur  Petre.  On  his 
removal  to  Coptfold  Hall  in  1862,  Lilystone  was  bought  by  Mr  Thomas 
Walmesley,  and  in  1869  it  became  the  property  of  Isabella,  William  and 
John  Gillow,  of  Singleton,  Lancashire. sjc  From  the  time  that  Mr  Arthur 
Fetre  came  to  Lilystone  Hall  there  was  a  private  chapel  in  the  house.  Soon 
after  the  advent  of  the  Giliows,  this  became  a  public  oratory,  and  on  July  16, 
1880,  the  small  but  handsome  church  erected  by  Miss  Isabella  Gillow  was 
blessed  and  opened  by  Cardinal  Manning.  Twelve  years  later  Mr  William 
Gillow  built  the  fine  schools  in  the  village.  On  March  i,  1893,  Isabella,  the 
eldest  of  the  three,  went  to  her  reward.  She  was  quickly  followed  by  her 
brother  William  on  May  18  of  the  same  year,  and  John,  the  last  of  the 
family,  died  on  April  17, 1894.  Almost  the  whole  of  the  property  was  left  for 
ecclesiastical  purposes.  Lilystone  Hall  with  the  adjoining  estate  was  sold 
to  Mr  William  Dunn,  the  chapel,  schools  and  site  for  the  Presbytery 
remaining  in  the  hands  of  the  Gillow  Trustees  for  the  use  of  the  Mission  of 
Stock. 

The  following  is  the  list  of  incumbents  since  the  re-opening  of  the 
Mission  at  Stock : 

1868-69  Very  Rev.  John  Walker  (Canon  of  Westminster). 

1869-71  Rev.  Henry  Soerwyn. 

1872-75  Rev.  Thomas  Fallside. 

1875-76  Very  Rev.  John  Walker 

1876-77  Rev.  Peter  J.  Van  Schie. 

1877  (Oct.  4)  Rev.  William  H.  Cologan. 

The  first  book  is  a  common  half-penny  paper  cash  or  memorandum 
book  in  a  marbled  paper  back,  6^x3^  inches.  The  second  book  is  of  paper 
7f  X  6J  inches,  and  bound  in  vellum.  They  belong  to  the  present  mission  at

HOPCAR 

HOPCAR,  within  Bedford,  in  the  parish  of  Leigh,  co.  Lancaster,  was  the 
seat  of  the  ancient  Catholic  family  of  Sale,  of  whom  several  were  priests  and 
Jesuits.  The  estate  of  Hopcar  was  sold  July  4,  1770,  by  Gilbert  Sale, 
whose  younger  brother  Father  John  Sale,  S.J.,  served  the  mission  for  some 
years,  but  died  in  Furness  in  1791,  aged  69. 

The  book  was  evidently  commenced,  with  lists  of  communicants, etc., 
at  Hopcar  at  Easter,  1739,  by  Father  Robert  Petre,  S.J.,  who  appears  at 
Hopcar  in  Bishop  Dicconson's  hst  in  1741,  and  removed  subsequently  to 
Eccleston,  Chorley,  and  Preston.  He  died  at  Dunkenhalgh,  in  the  same 
county,  in  1766,  having  been  chaplain  to  Lord  Petre  there  for  some  years, 
and  this  is  probably  the  way  it  got  to  Crondon  Park,  which  was  another 
estate  belonging  to  his  lordship. 

Bedford  Leigh  has  been  served  by  the  Society  from  at  least  the  seven- 
teenth century,  and  a  record  of  most  of  the  incumbents*  names  is  in  the 
writer's  possession.  After  the  Sale  family  left  Hopcar,  the  congregation 
assembled  in  the  old  chapel  in  the  house  occupied  for  centuries  by  the 

'  The  writer,  Fr  Robert  Eyrton,  S.J. ,  clearly  refers  to  the  Society  of  Jesus, 
but  includes  one  lady  in  red  ink.  The  footnotes  added  by  Mr  Joseph  Gillowmake 
this  evident.  In  his  Di^.  Eng.  Caths,  V.  242,  he  mentions  Fr  John  Panting,  S.J., 
1732-83.

ancient  family  of  Shuttleworth,  but  finally  an  independent  chapel  was 
secured,  which  continued  till  1778,  when  a  new  one  was  erected  owing  to 
the  old  one  being  unfit  for  use.  This  was  visited  Oct.  27,  1784,  by  Bishop 
Matthew  Gibson,  who  confirmed  135  persons,  and  Father  Jno.  Shaw,  S.J., 
the  incumbent,  returned  the  communicants  at  240.  On  Feb.  10,  1816,  during 
Father  Wm  Poole's  incumbency,  the  recently  attached  burial  ground  was 
consecrated,  and  on  Sept.  19,  1825,  Bishop  Penswick  made  his  visitation 
and  gave  confirmation.  In  1855  the  present  church  was  opened.  The  Bed- 
ford Leigh  register  was  commenced  by  Father  Jno.  Shaw,  August  26,  1778.

REGISTERS  OF  THE  CATHOLIC  CHAPEL, 
LULWORTH  CASTLE,  DORSET. 

CONTRIBUTED  BY  MISS  J.  H.  HARTING. 

The  registers,  now  at  Somerset  House,  and  copied  by  me  for  the 
Society,  by  permission  of  the  Registrar-General,  are  numbered  "Dorset 
No  II."  They  are  in  a  thick  rough  paper  book  i6Jx  io|^  inches,  bound  in 
vellum.  From  their  position  in  the  book,  it  must  have  been  intended  to  use 
it  for  other  purposes,  and  probably  the  missing  pages  may  have  been  so 
used.  They  come  in  this  order — one  folio  blank,  one  cut  out,  forty-one 
blank,  ten  cut  out,  thirty-seven  blank,  seventy-three  pages  of  registers  and 
eleven  blank.  The  book  is  in  an  excellent  state  of  preservation. 

Although  the  greater  part  of  the  entries  appear  in  the  handwriting 
of  the  different  priests  in  charge  of  the  mission,  some  of  the  earlier  notices 
are  all  by  one  hand,  showing  that  they  are  not  the  originals,  but  copies 
only,  and  abbreviated  to  the  narrowest  limits.  They  commence  in  the  year 
1755,  but  no  priests'  names  appear  until  the  year  1785,  when  the  Rev. 
Charles  Plowden,  S.J.,  was  in  charge.  This  is  generally  found  to  be  the 
case  owing  to  the  penal  troubles  and  penalties. 

The  formal  blank  certificate  is  filled  in  as  follows  by  italics: 

"The  annexed  or  accompanying  Book  is  the  original  Register  Book 
of  Births,  Baptisms  and  a  few  burials,  which  has  been  kept  for  the 
Roman  Catholic  Chapel,  called  Lullworth  Castle  chapel,  situate  near 
Wareham  in  the  County  of  Dorsetshire  founded  about  the  year  1786  : 
If  N.  B.  The  first  registers  of  births  and  baptisms  do  however  date  from 
the  year  1 755 ,  prayers  being  then  said  and  baptisms  administered  within 
the  Castle. 

The  Book  sent  has  been  from  time  to  time  in  the  custody  of  the  Priest 
for  the  time  being,  of  the  Chapel;  and  is  sent  to  the  Commissioners  from 
the  immediate  custody  of  E.  B.  Moutardier  of  Lullworth  Castle  in  the 
County  of  Dorsetshire  v^\io  has  kept  it  since  1817  as  Chaplain  to  the 
Weld  family.  Signed  the  Twenty  second  dsiy  oi  March  i8373K 

E,  B.  Moutardier  Clergyman  or  Ofificiating  Minister.  Joseph  Weld 
Proprietor" 

A  marginal  note  reads :  *'  N.B:  As  burials,  with  the  exception  of  a 
few  in  the  family  Vault,  are  in  the  Parish  Churchyard,  no  regular 
register  has  been  kept.'* 

Mr  Joseph  Gillow  has  supplied  the  following. — J.  H.  H. : 

BRIEF  HISTORICAL  ACCOUNT  OF  THE  CHAPLAINCY  AND 
MISSION  AT  LULWORTH 

There  are  apparently  no  records  of  the  earlier  chaplains  at  Lulworth, 
though  Dr  Oliver  {Historical  Collections,  p.  40)  informs  us,  that  "Cer- 
tainly, from  the  time  of  purchasing  this  estate  of  the  Howards  of  Bindon,  by 
Humphrey  Weld,  Esq.,  a  chaplain  has  been  attached  to  the  family." 

He  Although  dated  "22  March  1837"  and  marked,  **  Rec<i  25  March,"  it 
will  be  observed  that  registers  are  continued  to  September  29,  1840.  The  volume 
was  probably  sent  up  to  the  Commissioners  for  enquiry  in  £837,  returned  by 
them  to  Lulworth,  and,  after  the  issue  of  their  report  to  Parliament,  finally 
deposited,  like  most  of  the  other  Catholic  registers,  in  1840. 


I 


LULWORTH  CASTLE  REGISTERS  365 

Mr  Weld  acquired  the  Lulworth  Estate  in  1641.  At  this  time  the  Rev. 
William  Hyde,  D.D.,  subsequently  president  of  Douay  College,  resided 
with  Mr  Weld  at  his  town  house.  Weld  House,  in  the  parish  of  St-Giles- 
in-the-Fields,  and  it  is  most  probable  that  this  good  priest  accompanied  Mr 
Weld  to  the  castle  before  his  return  to  Douay  College  in  October  of  that 
year. 

Very  frequently  there  was  a  private  chaplain  or  family  tutor  residing 
in  the  castle  as  well  as  the  missioner,  and  the  position  is  not  always  defined, 
hence  such  names  as  have  been  traced  have  been  put  down  in  chronologi- 
cal order. 

Father  Richard  Smith  alias  Saville,  S.J.,  according  to  Foley  {Re- 
cords, S.J.,  V,  801),  resided  here  from  about  1685  until  about  1708.  In 
January,  1718,  he  is  found  at  Culcheth  Hall,  Lancashire,  where  he  is  sup- 
posed to  have  died  in  1735,  aged  75. 

Father  Thomas  Fetherston,  S.J.,  a  Lancashire  man  according  to 
Foley  [ib.  vii,  251),  but  more  probably  belonging  to  Cumberland,  was 
appointed  chaplain  here  in  1702,  went  to  Ghent  in  1704  for  his  third  year's 
probation,  but  apparently  returned  to  Lulworth,  was  superior  of  the  district 
in  1716,  and  finally  died  at  Ghent  in  1724,  aged  53. 

Father  Richard  Caryll  ahas  Paul  Kelly,  S.J.,  son  of  John  Caryll,  of 
West  Grinstead,  Sussex,  second  Lord  Caryll,  of  the  creation  of  the  exiled 
James  H,  seems  to  have  succeeded  Father  Fetherston  in  1722,  and  to  have 
withdrawn  to  his  family  seat  of  Ladyholt,  Harting,  in  1723. 


Father  Thomas  Ingleby,  S.J.,  succeeded  in  1723,  and  probably  re- 

th  at  Paris,  November  12, 1729, aged, 
Father  William  Beaumont,  S  J".,  born  January  29, 1697,  son  of  Joseph 


mained  till  shortly  before  his  death  at  Paris,  November  12, 1729,  aged 45. 


Beaumont,  of  Stone  Easton,  co.  Somerset,  Esq.,  and  his  wife  Hannah 
Harding,  apparently  succeeded  Father  Ingleby  in  1729,  but  how  long  he 
stayed  is  uncertain.  He  eventually  withdrew  to  his  home  at  Stone  Easton, 
where  he  died  in  1764,  aged  67. 

Father  Robert  Richardson  alias  Garbot,  S.J.,  seems  to  have  come  to 
Lulworth  in  1733,  and  in  the  following  year  was  declared  rector  of  the  dis- 
trict, in  which  office  he  died  in  1737,  aged  66. 

Father  Henry  Whetenhall,  S.J. ,  born  in  1694,  son  of  Henry  Wheten- 
hall,  of  EastPeckham,  Kent,  Esq.  ,and  his  wife  Leftice,  daughter  of  Sir  Henry 
Tichbome,  of  Tichborne,  3rd  Bart,  (by  Mary,  daughter  of  Charles  Arun- 
dell,  and  niece  of  Thomas,  second  Lord  Arundell  of  Wardour),  succeeded 
Father  Richardson,  and  died  in  London  in  1745,  possibly  having  gone  with 
the  Welds  to  their  town  house. 

Father  Francis  Hulme  (or  Holme)  alias  Howard,  S.J.,  born  in  1724, 
son  of  William  Hulme,  of  Eccleston,  in  the  parish  of  Prescot,  Lancashire, 
maltster,  and  grandson  of  Edward  Hulme,  of  the  same,  and  his  wife  Jane 
Howard,  seems  to  have  succeeded  Father  Whetenhall,  and  possibly  re- 
mained till  1755.  Subsequently  he  served  Richmond,  co.  York,  and  Alnwick, 
CO.  Northumberland,  where  he  died  in  1802.  aged  78. 

Father  William  Boucher,  S.J.,  was  chaplain  at  Aston  Hall,  co.  Staf- 
ford, an  estate  acquired  by  the  Welds,  whence  he  came  with  them  to  Lul- 
worth, and  died  Sept.  28, 1757,  aged  57.  It  was  probably  he  who  commenced 
the  registers  in  1755.  The  name  of  his  immediate  successor  is  not  recorded. 

Father  Edward  Church,  S.J.,  came  sometime  between  1764  and  1773, 
at  which  latter  date  he  is  found  as  missioner  here.  He  left  for  Garswood, 
CO.  Lancaster,  the  seat  of  the  Gerards,  where  he  was  in  1783,  and  he  died 
at  Rixton  Hall,  in  the  same  county,  in  1820,  aged  92. 

Father  Richard  Reeve  alias  Haskey,  S.J.,  previously  with  the  Stan- 
ley-Masseys  at  Puddington  Hall,  Cheshire,  a  chaplaincy  which  the  Society 
vacated  sometime  between  1775  and  1780,  came  to  Lulworth  for  a  time,  and 
his  name  appears  in  the  register  in  January,  1777.  He  died  at  Stonyhurst 
in  1816,  aged  76. 


366  LULWORTH  CASTLE  REGISTERS 

Father  John  Couche,  S.J.,  served  here  some  time  before  1791,  in 
which  year  he  withdrew.  He  died  at  Greenwich  in  18 13,  aged  69. 

Father  Thomas  Stanley-Massey,  S.J. ,  born  1716,  a  younger  son  of  Sir 
William  Stanley,  3rd  Bart.,  of  Hooton  Hall,  Cheshire,  succeeded  to  the 
estates  of  William  Massey,  of  Puddington  Hall,  Cheshire,  Esq. ,  in  pursuance 
to  whose  will  he  assumed  the  additional  name  of  Massey,  but  upon  enter- 
ing the  Society  assigned  them  to  his  elder  brother  John.  The  latter  like- 
wise assumed  the  name  of  Massey,  but  upon  succeeding  his  nephew.  Sir 
William  Stanley,  as  6th  Bart.,  he  re-assumed  his  patronymic,  and  became 
known  as  Sir  John  Stanley-Massey-Stanley.  Father  Thomas  Stanley- 
Massey,  after  being  a  professor  at  the  English  College  at  Rome,  came  to 
the  English  Mission,  and  was  appointed  chaplain  to  the  Bedingfelds  at 
Oxburgh  Hall,  Norfolk,  in  1755  After  the  marriage  of  his  niece,  Mary 
Massey-Stanley,  eldest  daughter  of  Sir  John,  with  Thomas  Weld  in  1772, 
Father  Thomas  came  to  Lulworth,  and  subsequently  acted  as  tutor  to  Mr 
Weld's  sons.  He  was  not  the  missioner,  but  generally  assisted  him  when 
at  Lulworth,  his  name  appearing  in  the  registers  as  late  as  1802.  He  re- 
mained at  the  castle  till  his  death,  June  2, 1805,  aged  90. 

Father  Alexander  Mackenzie  alias  Clinton,  S.J.,  became  chaplain  in 
1781,  and  remained  till  1794,  when  he  removed  in  consequence  of  Mr 
Thomas  Weld  informing  him  that  "he  wished  to  continue  friends,  which 
could  only  be  by  his  leaving."  He  died  in  1800,  aged  70.  Many  spiritual 
works  proceeded  from  his  pen.  It  was  through  him,  at  Mr  Weld's  invita- 
tion, that  the  Abbe  Grou  was  induced  to  accept  a  private  chaplaincy  at 
Lulworth. 

It  was  during  Father  Clinton's  time,  by  which  name  he  was  generally 
known,  that  Mr  Thomas  Weld  erected  St  Mary's  chapel  within  the  grounds 
attached  to  the  castle.  When  the  idea  was  first  contemplated  Mr  Weld 
asked  special  permission  of  George  III,  who  told  him  to  build  it  as  little 
like  a  chapel  as  possible.  It  was  therefore  erected  more  like  a  mausoleum, 
classical  in  style,  with  a  dome  and  a  lantern,  and  measured  seventy-six 
feet  long  by  sixty-one  feet  broad.  The  foundation  stone  was  laid  on  Feb- 
ruary 2,  1786.  Eventually,  after  Mr  Edward  Weld  came  into  the  estate  in 
1863,  the  eminent  architect,  Joseph  Aloysius  Hansom,  was  called  in  to  give 
the  building  a  more  ecclesiastical  character.  George  III  and  Queen  Charlotte 
visited  the  castle  in  1789,  and  George  IV  frequently  at  subsequent  dates. 
On  August  15,  1790,  Dr  John  Carroll,  the  founder  of  the  episcopacy  in 
North  America,  was  consecrated  within  the  chapel  bishop  of  Baltimore, 
U.S.A.,  by  Bishop  Charles  Walmesley,  V.A — WD.  and  young  Thomas 
Weld,  the  future  Cardinal,  was  one  of  the  acolytes  on  the  occasion.  Here 
also  the  same  prelate  consecrated,  on  the  following  Decembers,  Dr  Wil- 
liam Gibson  bishop  of  Acanthus,  after  his  appointment  to  the  Northern 
Vicariate.  A  fortnight  later  the  new  Bishop  of  Acanthus  performed  the  like 
rite  on  Dr  John  Douglass,  bishop  of  Centuriae  and  V.A — L.D. 

In  August,  1794,  a  colony  of  six  Cistercian  monks  from  the  Abbey  of 
Valsainte  arrived  in  London  under  their  superior  Dom  Jean  Baptiste  de 
Noyer.  Their  intention  was  to  proceed  to  Canada,  but  Mr  Weld  invited 
them  to  Lulworth,  where  they  arrived  in  October,  and  placed  them  in  the 
chaplain's  house  near  the  castle,  recently  vacated  by  Father  Clinton. 

The  names  of  the  original  brotherhood  were:  Father  John  Baptist, 
the  prior,  Father  Hyacinthe,  Father  Desitheus,  Brother  Bernard,  a  novice, 
and  two  convers  brothers.  In  the  following  year  they  were  joined  by  three 
novices,  Anne  Nicolas  Charles  Saulnier  de  Beaureaund,  D.D.,  Nicholas 
Rousselin  (Father  Palemon  in  religion),  whose  name  appears  in  the  regis- 
ter in  1825,  and  Francis  Hawkins  of  Wardour,  who  became  Father 
Stephen,  and  finished  his  career  at  the  Abbey  of  Mount  St  Bernard  in 
Leicestershire.  In  March,  1706,  the  Community  removed  into  a  new  monas- 
tery in  East  Lulworth,  about  half  a  mile  from  the  castle,  which  Mr  Weld  had 


LULWORTH  CASTLE  REGISTERS  367 

provided  for  them.  It'was  dedicated  to  the  Holy  Trinity  under  the  patronage 
of  St  Susan ,  its  style  being  plain  early  English,  with  cloisters  surrounding  the 
quadrangle  of  the  burial-ground  in  accordance  with  Cistercian  custom.  The 
first  prior,  Dom  I.  B.  de  Noyer,  left  England  in  1801,  and  was  succeeded 
by  Dom  Marie  Bernard  Benoit,  who  died  in  1805;  Dom  Maur  Adam,  who 
died  in  May,  1810;  and  Dom  Antoine  Saulnier  de  Beaureaund,  a  quondam 
canon  of  Sens  Cathedral,  who  was  raised  to  the  rank  of  abbot  in  May,  and 
as  such  was  blessed  by  Bishop  Poynterin  London  in  August,  1813.  Occa- 
sionally the  monks  did  duty  in  the  chapel  at  Lulworth,  as  shown  by  the 
register,  with  the  approbation  of  the  bishop  of  the  vicariate.  In  1817  the 
abbot  purchased  the  ancient  Cistercian  abbey  and  domain  of  Melleray, 
Brittany,  in  the  diocese  of  Nantes,  and  on  July  10  of  that  year  the  Lulworth 
community,  to  the  number  of  fifty-nine,  besides  five  attendants,  embarked 
at  Weymouth  on  board  the  French  ingsiie  La  Revanche,  and  sailed  to 
France.  During  their  stay  at  Lulworth  they  buried  twenty-seven  of  their 
brethren,  viz. ,  seven  priests,  thirteen  choir-  religious,  and  the  remainder  pos- 
tulants or  lay-brothers.  Whilst  at  Lulworth,  a  valet  of  Mr  Thomas  Weld  and 
a  convert,  John  Palmer,  entered  the  monastery,  where  he  was  professed  in 
1 8 10  under  the  name  of  Bernard.  He  was  eventually  ordained  priest  at 
Oscott  in  1838,  and  became  the  first  abbot  of  Mount  St  Bernard,  where  he 
died  in  1852,  aged  70.  In  1831,  sixty-four  of  the  British  subjects  in  the 
Abbey  of  Melleray  came  over  to  Ireland,  and  established  the  new  Abbey 
of  Mount  Melleray  within  the  county  of  Waterford,  under  the  superiorship 
of  one  of  the  old  Lulworth  monks,  whose  name  appears  in  the  register  in 
1817.  This  was  Dom  Vincent  Ryan,  who  became  the  first  mitred  abbot  in 
Ireland  since  the  Reformation,  and  who  died  at  Mount  Melleray,  Decem- 
ber 9, 1845. 

Father  Charles  Plowden,  S.J.,  seventh  son  of  William  Ignatius  Plow- 
den.  Esq.,  of  Plowden  Hall,  co.  Salop,  by  the  Hon.  Frances  Dormer, 
daughter  of  Charles,  Lord  Dormer,  became  private  chaplain  and  tutor  at 
the  castle  in  i;r84,  and  wrote  several  of  his  works  here.  He  left  in  Novem- 
ber, 1794  to  rejoin  his  confreres  at  Stonyhurst.  He  appears  again  in  the 
registers  in  August  and  September,  1800,  during  a  visit  to  Lulworth.  He 
died  at  Jougne  in  182 1,  aged  ']']. 

Father  Leonard  Brooke,  S.J.,  appears  to  have  come  to  Lulworth 
from  Slindon  Hall,  in  Sussex,  as  missioner  in  or  about  1793.  He  remained 
till  his  death,  July  7,  1813,  aged  63,  and  was  interred  in  the  vault  of  the 
Weld  family,  his  epitaph  being  written  by  his  confrere,  Father  Charles 
Plowden. 

Father  James  j[enison,  S.J.  seems  to  have  supplied  for  some  time  in 
1793-4.  He  had  previously  been  chaplain  to  the  Porter  family,  who  rented 
Admiral  Sawbridge's  house  near  Wellington.  He  died  at  Bath  in  1799, 
aged  62. 

Pere  Jean  Nicolas  Grou,  S.J.,  a  native  of  Calais,  having  been  driven 
from  France  by  the  Revolution,  was  charitably  received  by  Mr  Weld  at 
Lulworth  as  a  private  chaplain  in  December,  1792.  He  wrote  several  lite- 
rary and  spiritual  works,  some  of  which  were  translated  into  English  and 
edited  by  his  confrbre  Father  Clinton.  He  remained  at  Lulworth  till  his 
death,  December  13, 1803,  aged  72,  and  was  interred  in  the  Weld  family  vault. 

Father  John  Joseph  Reeve  alias  Power,  S.  J.,  practically  succeeded 
to  Father  Brooke's  charge  as  missioner  in  November,  1812.  He  was  a 
nephew  of  Father  Richard  Reeve  alias  Haskey,  who  was  here  in  1777.  He 
was  educated  at  Stonyhurst,  ordained  priest  in  1807,  and  came  here  from 
Bristol,  where  he  had  been  socius  to  Father  Robert  Plowden,  S.J.,  since 
July,  181 1.  He  remained  till  the  end  of  October,  1816,  when  "he  was 
removed  from  this  important  mission,  for  which  he  was  unsuited,"  says  Dr 
Oliver,  "  and  placed  at  Pontefract."  Subsequently  he  left  the  Society,  and 
died  at  Chelsea  in  December,  1848,  aged  66. 


368  LULWORTH  CASTLE  REGISTERS 

Father  Joseph  Tristram,  S.J.,  succeeded  Father  Reeve,  but  left  in 
1817  to  become  socius  to  the  provincial.  He  died  at  Newhall  Convent, 
April  4,  1843,  aged  ']^.  Foley  was  under  the  impression  that  his  real  name 
was  Cross,  the  alias  used  by  his  brother  John,  but  Tristram  was  his  pater- 
nal name. 

Father  Vincent  Ryan,  O.C.,  already  noticed,  very  efficiently  served 
the  Lulworth  congregation  during  the  time  which  elapsed  before  the 
appointment  of  a  permanent  missioner  in  the  person  of — 

Father  Louis  Benjamin  Moutardier,  S.J.,  a  native  of  Normandy,  but 
educated  and  ordained  priest  at  Stonyhurst.  He  was  appointed  and  took 
charge  of  the  mission  on  July  19,  1817,  and  served  it  for  nearly  thirty-seven 
years,  until  May,  1854,  when  he  was  transferred  to  Pontefract,  thence 
retired  to  Stonyhurst,  and  finally  to  St  Acheul,  Amiens,  where  he  died  in 
1857,  ^S"ed  71. 

As  the  registers  here  printed  end  during  Father  Moutardier's  minis- 
tration, it  is  not  thought  expedient  to  continue  the  list  of  missioners  down 
to  the  present  time.

Constitutions 

1.  Name.  The  name  of  the  Society  is  "The  Catholic  Record 
Society." 

2.  Objects,  The  objects  are  the  transcribing,  printing,  indexing  and 
distributing  to  its  members  the  Catholic  Registers  of  Baptisms,  Marriages 
and  Deaths  and  other  old  Records  of  the  Faith,  chiefly  personal  and  genea- 
logical, since  the  Reformation  in  England  and  Wales. 

3.  Management.  The  affairs  of  the  Society  are  managed  by  a  Council 
consisting  of  twelve  members  and  four  honorary  oflBcers,  viz..  The  Recorder, 
Bursar,  Legal  Adviser  and  Secretary — four  forming  a  quorum.  It  has  power 
to  appoint  a  President  and  Vice-Presidents,  its  Chairman  and  Ofl&cers,  and 
to  fill  vacancies  on  its  own  body,  and  has  power  to  refuse  or  take  away 
membership.  One-third  of  the  twelve  members  and  all  the  honorary  officers 
retire  each  year,  but  are  eligible  for  re-election.  Nominations  of  New  Mem- 
bers of  the  Council  must  be  sent  to  the  Secretary  fourteen  days  before  the 
Annual  Meeting.  The  representation  and  management  are  reserved  to 
Catholic  Members. 

4.  Subscri;ption.  The  subscription  is  one  guinea  per  annum,  which 
entitles  members  to  the  publications  for  the  year,  but  the  names  of  any 
members  whose  subscription  shall  be  two  years  in  arrears  will  thereupon  be 
removed  from  the  Society,  and  not  be  readmitted  until  all  arrears  are  paid. 

Subscriptions  are  due  on  June  i  in  each  year,  and  no  work  is  issued 
to  any  member  whose  subscription  is  unpaid.  A  member  wishing  to  retire 
from  the  Society  must  intimate  his  intention  to  the  Bursar  or  Secretary  before 
the  I  St  day  of  June,  or  be  held  liable  for  his  subscription  for  the  ensuing 
year.  » 

5.  Privileges.  The  members  are  entitled  to  the  Volume  or  Volumes 
printed  for  the  year  of  subscription,  no  Volume  being  issued  to  any  member 
whose  subscription  is  unpaid.  They  may  also,  on  prepayment,  obtain  back 
numbers  (if  in  stock)  on  such  terms  as  the  Council  may  direct. 

6.  Meetings.  An  Annual  Meeting  is  held  in  the  month  of  June  or  July, 
of  which  at  least  seven  days'  notice  is  sent  to  all  the  members.  At  this  meeting 
a  report  of  the  work  of  the  Society,  with  a  statement  of  the  income  and  ex- 
penditure, is  presented.  This  is  issued  together  with  the  list  of  members  and 
the  Constitutions  of  the  Society. 

7.  Audit.  The  Bursar's  accounts  are  audited  by  a  member  of  the 
Society  appointed  by  the  Council,  at  the  close  of  the  financial  year,  which 
expires  on  May  31. 

N.B. — The  Bursar  deals  with  Membership  and  Subscriptions. 


FOURTH  ANNUAL  REPORT  OF  THE 
CATHOLIC  RECORD  SOCIETY 

THE  fourth  year  of  the  Society  has  been  one  of  material  pro- 
gress and  consolidation.  There  have  been  losses;  but  they 
have  been  overbalanced  by  the  gains.  Delays  have  had  to  be 
complained  of;  but  in  the  long  run  important  books,  teeming  with 
information  of  great  moment,  have  appeared  on  subscribers'  tables. 
Quietly  but  surely  the  Society  adheres  to  its  motto  to  "Gather  up 
the  fragments  lest  they  be  lost." 

Since  last  year  there  have  to  be  recorded  the  deaths  of  the  Rev. 
Charles  P.  F.  Collingridge,  a  descendant  of  an  old  Recusant  family 
in  Oxfordshire;  Ernest  Reuter  Wyatt-Davies,  a  member  of  Council 
for  one  year;  the  Rev.  James  Forbes-Leith,  S.J.;  Henry  Singleton 
Threlfall,  whose  name  calls  for  special  notice  elsewhere;  John 
Warrington;  Sir  Joseph  Percival  Pickford  Radcliffe,  third  Baronet; 
Captain  James  Cumming  Dewar,  K.M.,K.H.S.;  the  Right  Rev. 
Samuel  Webster  Allen,  fourth  Bishop  of  Shrewsbury  ;  James  Tisdall 
Woodroffe,  K.C.S.G.  ;  and  the  eminent  judge.  Sir  John  Charles 
Day,  P.C. 

Nine  resignations  have  been  received;  and  it  has  been  neces- 
sary to  remove  three  names  under  Constitution  4.  With  the  ten 
deaths  recorded  above,  there  is  a  severe  total  loss  of  twenty-two. 

On  the  other  hand  it  is  matter  for  congratulation  that  forty- 
four  members  have  joined  or  rejoined.  The  net  gain  is  therefore 
twenty-two;  so  that  the  membership,  which  a  year  ago  stood  at  333, 
is  now  355. 

It  has  been  matter  of  great  satisfaction  that  Catholic  Lanca- 
shire has  contributed  considerably  to  the  advance,  and  the  Council 
have  to  thank  the  Rev.  George  Huggins,  S.J.,  and  Mr  Arthur 
Ashton  Slater,  to  whom  this  increase  is  largely  due.  Another  satis- 
factory feature  is  the  steady  increase  of  municipal  public  libraries, 
Including  one  from  Australia. 

Special  mention  must  be  made  of  the  fa6l  that  one  exceptional 
honorary  membership  has  been  granted,  and  that  by  acclamation. 
Having  ascertained  that  the  books  issued  by  the  Society  would  be 
acceptable  to  "The  Apostolic  Vatican  Library,"  the  Council  voted 
that  they  should  be  sent,  and  the  Society  is  thus  honoured  by  their 
resting  in  the  official  library  of  the  Holy  Father. 

On  Tuesday  In  Low  Week,  the  Archbishop  and  Bishops,  at 
their  annual  assemblage,  passed  a  vote  of  commendation  of  the 
Society's  work  accomplished.  Individual  written  approvals  had 
been  given;  several  of  the  Bishops  had  subscribed;  but  hitherto  no 
colle(5live  approval  had  been  given,  or  could  be  expe6led.  Now  that 
five  volumes  stand  asevidence,on  which  judgement  can  be  founded, 
this  commendation  Is  most  welcome. 


J 


Volume  IV  was,  after  too  long  delay  on  the  part  of  the  prin- 
ters, issued  to  members  for  the  third  year,  1906-7.  Volume  V  has 
been  issued  for  the  fourth  year,  1907-8;  and  the  Council  proposes  to 
give  Volume  VI  as  the  second  for  the  latter  year,  thus  maintaining" 
the  standard  of  three  volumes  in  two  years;  the  fairly  satisfactory 
increase  in  membership  not  yet  justifying  an  output  of  two  volumes 
in  each  year.  Those  issued  become  more  substantial  in  bulk. 

Our  Recorder  undertook  to  annotate  the  Lancashire  part  of 
the  Recusant  List  of  1 66y  ioxV  oXwxvl^  VI.  His  ill-health  impeded  pro- 
gress; but  such  work  from  Mr  Gillow's  pen  will  be  ample  compen- 
sation to  members,  who  will  sympathize  with  him  in  illness,  and 
rejoice  in  his  recovery.  His  illness  also  caused  The  Anjials  of  the 
English  Blue  Nuns  of  Paris  to  be  deferred  to  a  later  volume  than 
intended,  and  Volume  VII,  which  has  been  begun,  will  consist  ot 
papers  relating  to  the  old  Catholic  family  of  Bedingfeld  of  Oxburgh, 
kindly  placed  at  our  disposal  by  Sir  Henry  Paston  Bedingfeld,  Bart. 
It  may  possibly  be  supplemented  by  other  papers  and  issued  for  the 
fifth  year,  1908-9. 

The  Bursar's  statement  shows  that,  besides  other  expenses, 
Volumes  IV  and  V  and  the  excerpt.  Lord  Bur ghley's  Map  of  Lanca- 
shire^ have  been  paid  for,  and  yet  the  balance  is  increased  from 
;£'396  5s.  7d.  to  ;£^433  17s.  iid.  Satisfactory  in  itself  it  may  be 
mentioned  that  the  material  remaining  to  be  printed  is  so  extensive 
that  many  times  the  amount  could  be  spent.  The  balance  only  repre- 
sents work  in  progress,  undertaken  with  discretion,  and  keeping  a 
small  amount  for  reserve  or  contingencies. 

The  late  Henry  Singleton  Threlfall,  of  an  old  Catholic  Lanca- 
shire family,  was  the  nineteenth  Founder  of  the  Society  and  wrote 
several  letters  to  the  originator  in  1904,  manifesting  his  solicitude 
for  its  sound  formation  and  promising  special  financial  support.  His 
death  reveals  that  his  promise  took  another  form ;  for,  by  his  will, 
he  left  the  Society  the  reversionary  bequest  of  five  hundred  pounds. 
At  present  we  have  only  to  regret  his  loss,  and  to  trust  that,  as  a 
benefactor,  he  may  obtain  the  special  prayers  of  the  members  of  the 
Society.  But,  in  the  event  of  the  sum  becoming  payable,  it  will  help 
to  put  the  Society  on  a  sound  basis,  as  he  so  much  desired,  if  the 
capital  is  invested  as  a  reserve  fund,  whilst  the  interest  will  form  a 
stable  addition  to  the  working  income. 

The  deaths  of  two  non-members  call  for  special  mention.  The 
Right  Rev.  Monsignor  Wrennall  set  a  special  example  of  devotion 
to  duty  by  undertaking  in  his  eighty-sixth  year  to  supply  the  tran- 
script and  edit  the  registers  of  Robert  Hall  and  Hornby  in  Lanca- 
shire, and  he  lived  to  see  the  work  completed,  as  it  appears  on  thirty- 
four  pages  of  Volume  IV. 

George  Bernard  Maycock  was  the  fifty-fifth  Founder,  and  joined 
the  Society,  as  he  avowed,  to  give  it  support  at  a  time  when  every 
name  was  of  importance  to  the  cause,  retiring  two  years  later. 
He  gave  the  preliminary  sketches  for  the  Society's  badge. 


The  Council  still  desires  to  enlist  the  services  of  a  gentleman, 
resident  in  London,  who  would  undertake  the  office  of  Honorary 
Secretary,  and  thus  lighten  Mr  Hansom's  labours. 

Approval  is  sought  for  some  alterations  of  the  Constitution  No.  4, 
and  renumbering  others,  of  which  notice  has  been  sent  to  members 
with  that  for  the  General  Meeting. 

At  the  last  General  Meeting  the  Rev.  John  Hungerford  Pollen, 
S.J. ;  Mr  Henry  Farnham  Burke,  C.V.O.,  Somerset  Herald;  Mr  John 
Hobson  Matthews;  and  Mr  Carlisle  James  Scott  Spedding,  whose 
term  of  office  on  the  Council  expired,  were  re-ele6led.  During  the 
year  the  Council  availed  itself  of  the  right  of  co-opting  two  mem- 
bers, the  Marquis  de  Ruvigny  and  Dr  George  Charles  Williamson. 
Nine  Council  meetings  have  been  held  during  the  year. 

Four  members  now  retire  by  rotation:  the  Rev.  Edwin  Bur- 
ton, D.D.,  the  Rev.  J.  Gilbert  Dolan,  O.S.B.;  Mr  Joseph  S.  Han- 
som, and  Mr  Francis  A.  R.  Langton.  They  are  eligible  for  re-elec- 
tion. 

NOTICES 

Members  are  requested  to  call  the  attention  of  their  friends  to  the 
Society  and  its  work.  The  present  membership  is  nearly  adequate 
for  the  issue  of  two  volumes  yearly,  and  it  is  highly  desirable  to 
make  this  the  minimum. 

Transcripts  of  interesting  unpublished  documents  ready  for 
the  press,  together  with  the  loan  of  the  originals  for  the  purpose  of 
collation,  are  invited.  It  is  desired  to  have  material  for  half  a  dozen 
volumes  ready  for  printing,  as  special  donations  for  printing  may 
enable  the  output  to  be  increased. 

Offers  of  help  in  transcribing  documents,  especially  in  the 
Public  Offices  in  London,  where  the  greater  part  of  documents  re- 
lating to  the  country  are  stored,  are  invited.  A  few  trustworthy 
transcribers  have  already  started  work  at  their  own  homes.  Parish 
Priests  are  especially  invited  to  provide  exa6l  copies  of  the  old  regi- 
sters, or  give  facilities  for  this  being  done. 

The  Constitutions  provide  that  *'no  work  is  issued  to  any 
member  whose  subscription  is  unpaid."  By  this  necessary  regula- 
tion we  prevent  any  claims  by  the  five  privileged  libraries  (The 
British  Museum  Library,  The  Bodleian  at  Oxford,  The  University 
Library  at  Cambridge,  Trinity  College,  Dublin,  and  The  Advocates 
Library  at  Edinburgh)  claiming  free  copies,  and  it  is  hoped  they  will 
all  become  members  of  the  Society,  as  three  already  are.  Both  their 
names  and  subscriptions  are  desired.  No  books  are  for  sale  to 
outsiders,  except  a  few  copies  of  Lord  Burghley's  Map  of  Lancashire^ 
by  Joseph  Giliow,  at  eight  shillings,  post  free. 

Members  desirous  of  paying  through  their  banker  will  be  sup- 
plied with  a  ''Banker's  Order"  on  application  to  the  Bursar  or 
Secretary.     It  saves  trouble  to  members  and  the  Bursar.

TRANSACTIONS  OF  THE  FOURTH  ANNUAL  GENERAL 

MEETING 

The  Fourth  Annual  General  Meeting  of  the  Catholic  Record  Society 
was  held  in  the  Archbishop's  House,  Westminster  (by  the  kind  permission 
of  the  Archbishop,  Patron),  on  Thursday,  June  25,  1908. 

There  were  present.  The  Rt  Rev.  Abbot  Gasquet,  D.D.,  O.S.B., 
the  Rev.  Edwin  Burton,  D.D.,  the  Rev.  J.  H.  Pollen,  S.J.,  the  Rev.  W.  O. 
Sutcliffe,M.A.;  Major  Raleigh  Chichester-Constable;  Mr  Joseph  S.  Hansom, 
Mr  Francis  A.  R.  Langton,  Mr  Leonard  C.  Lindsay,  Mr  Charles  J. 
Munich,  K.S.G.,  F.R.Hist.S.,  the  Marquis  de  Ruvigny,  Mr  Carlisle  J.  S. 
Spedding,  Captain  Ciiarles  Vaughan,  Mr  John  B.  Wainewright,  Mr 
Frederick  Underdown  Walford  and  Dr  George  C.  Williamson. 

The  Press  was  represented  by  The  Times,  Daily  Telegraphy  London 
News  Agency,  Universe  and  Catholic  Times. 

The  Rt  Rev.  Abbot  Gasquet,  Vice-President,  took  the  Chair. 

The  Archbishop  sent  word  that  he  was  unable  to  attend  owing  to  his 
Grace's  being  away,  making  visitations.  Messages  of  regret  at  inability 
to  attend  were  received  from  the  Lord  Herries  (President),  Colonel  the 
Lord  Edmund  Talbot  (Vice-President),  Admiral  the  Lord  Walter  Kerr 
(Vice-President),  Miss  Robinson,  Mr  Henry  Brierley,  M.A.  (Hon  Secre- 
tary, Lancashire  Par.  Reg.  Soc),  the  Very  Rev.  John  Canon  Caswell, 
the  Rt  Rev.  Mgr  Canon  Crook,  Mr  George  F.  Engelback,  Mr  E.  M. 
Greenway,  Mr  N.  J.  Hone,  Mr  W.  M.  Hunnybun,  M.A.,  Mr  J.  Orlebar 
Payne,  M.A.,  Mr  Richard  Duncan  Radcliffe,  M.A.,  Mr  Orby  Shipley, 
M.A.,  Mr  Arthur  Ashton  Slater  and  the  Rt  Rev.  Mgr  Canon  Ward. 

Abbot  Gasquet,  who  took  the  chair  in  the  absence  of  Lord  Herries, 
opened  the  proceedings  with  a  cordial  vote  of  condolence  (put  to  the 
meeting  and  carried  unanimously)  to  Lord  Herries  on  the  serious  illness 
which  prevented  his  Lordship  from  being  in  London  for  this  meeting,  and 
expressing  a  hope  that  he  may  soon  be  able  to  take  part  again  in  the  pro- 
ceedings of  the  Society,  in  which  and  all  archaeological  work  he  had  always 
taken  such  a  warm  interest. 

Referring  to  the  annual  Report  submitted  to  the  members  for  the  past 
year,  he  congratulated  the  officials  of  the  society  on  its  flourishing  condition 
proved  by  the  figures  representing  the  number  of  members.  For  example  the 
Catholic  Record  Society  had  355  members,  whereas  the  Surtees  Society 
which  was  considered  one  of  the  most  flourishing  and  numerous  of  such 
societies  in  England,  limits  its  membership  to  350,  whilst  the  Canterbury 
and  York  Society,  in  which  he  was  interested,  could  only  boast  of  205  mem- 
bers. Also  from  the  good  balance  at  the  Bank  he  thought  we  might  judge 
that  there  have  not  been  many  arrears  in  Members'  SulDscriptions.  We  have 
gained  forty-four  Members  against  twenty-two  lost  in  last  year,  so  that  the 
loss  was  amply  compensated. 

The  Society  should  be  especially  thankful  to  Father  Pollen,  amongst 
those  who  contributed  matter  for  the  five  excellent  and  interesting  volumes 
he  had  helped  to  produce,  and  he  knew  from  personal  experience  how  much 
time  and  trouble  were  required  to  compile  so  many  memorials.  For  the  last 
Volume  alone  over  a  hundred  documents  had  to  be  prepared  for  publication. 

There  were  some  who  thought  it  unwise  to  delve  among  the  dark 
pages  of  history,  and  an  old  lady  had  been  known  to  declare  that  she  thought 
"  by-gones  should  be  by-gones,"  and  the  darker  deeds  of  history  should  not 
be  raked  up.  But  he  considered,  whatever  might  be  said  to  the  contrary, 
that  it  was  well  and  right  to  consider  as  heroes  those  who  laid  down  their 
lives,  or  suffered  grievous  penalties  for  the  sake  of  their  religion,  and  to  lose 
no  opportunity  in  publishing  the  history  of  those  brave  deeds  of  old.  Those 


Fourth  Annual  General  Meeting  ii 

called  "  Recusants,"  because  they  stoutly  refused  to  be  present  at  heretical 
services  in  Protestant  Churches,  were  entitled  to  our  utmost  respect.  The 
heavy  fines  imposed  on  them  were  recorded,  and  proved  by  the  receipts 
which  were  preserved,  and  these  records  should  be  widely  known  and  read. 

Our  forefathers  teach  us  in  these  volumes  that  we  must  stand  up  for 
our  Faith  even  though  the  duty  be  most  unpleasant  and  entails  severe 
penalties  from  the  Law.  They  won  the  battle  of  Freedom,  so  it  is  only  right 
that  we  should  be  made  acquainted  with  their  names.  The  Abbot  gave 
examples  of  lists  of  Recusants  in  a  Church  in  Hampshire  which  he  visited, 
and  said  he  would  like  to  see  such  lists  in  every  Church  in  England.  As 
regards  a  complete  history  he  thought  we  must  wait  a  little  while  before  a 
full  account  of  the  terrible  days  when  the  Catholic  Religion  was  kept 
alive  at  the  imminent  risk  of  death  to  those  who  made  such  brave  efforts 
in  its  behalf;  but  when  the  proper  time  comes  it  must  be  told  calmly  and 
fully. 

He  concluded  by  moving  the  adoption  of  the  Report. 

Dr  Williamson  seconded,  and  referred  to  the  officials  of  the  Society 
being  cheered  in  their  work  by  the  encomiums  of  Abbot  Gasquet  and  the 
approval  of  the  members  present. 

Father  Pollen,  in  a  few  well-chosen  words,  thanked  the  Abbot,  and 
said  his  praise  was  indeed  precious,  and  he  wished  to  keep  up  as  far  as 
possible  the  rate  of  advance  so  as  to  be  able  to  keep  abreast  of  the  know- 
ledge of  past  history.  He  thanked  Abbot  Gasquet  for  much  assistance. 
The  Douai  Diaries  would  shortly  be  undertaken.  The  work  was  scattered 
over  a  broad  area  and  was  difficult  to  get  together.  Seven  convents  have 
kept  consecutive  chronicles  of  their  communities. 

This  Society,  although  a  Catholic  one,  was  really  interesting  to  all, 
because  at  one  or  another  time  it  was  found  all  old  famiHes  which  can 
be  traced  back  six  or  seven  generations  have  had  Catholic  members 
amongst  them,  and  therefore  Catholic  records.  The  lists  of  recusants  and 
the  chronicles  of  convents  will  supply  useful  records  in  history  and  genealogy 
to  all  in  the  United  Kingdom.  A  long  list  of  recusants  will  be  included  in 
Volume  VI. 

The  Report  was  then  put  and  unanimously  adopted. 

Mr  Leonard  Lindsay  spoke  as  to  certain  proposed  alterations  in  the 
Constitutions  of  the  Society,  Nos  4  and  5;  and  Abbot  Gasquet  read  and 
explained  these  alterations,  which  Mr  Lindsay  moved  should  be  adopted. 

Le  Marquis  de  Ruvigny  seconded,  and  the  alterations  were  carried 
as  in  the  revised  Constitutions  printed  with  the  Report. 

Major  Chichester-Constable  proposed  the  re-election  of  the  following 
four  members  of  the  Council:  The  Rev.  Edwin  Burton,  D.D. ;  the  Rev. 
J.  Gilbert  Dolan,  O.S.B. ;  Joseph  Stanislaus  Hansom;  Francis  Albert 
Romuald  Langton. 

Mr  Munich  seconded  their  re-election  and  expressed  his  pleasure  at 
the  volumes  he  had  obtained.  The  motion  was  carried. 

Mr  Wainewright  proposed,  and  Captain  C.  Vaughan  seconded,  a 
vote  of  thanks  to  the  Council  and  officers  of  the  Society. 

The  Rev.  Dr  Burton  proposed,  and  the  Rev.  W.  O.  Sutcliffe 
seconded,  a  vote  of  thanks  to  Abbot  Gasquet  for  the  time  and  trouble  he 
had  devoted  to  taking  the  chair  and  speaking  at  this  meeting,  to  which 
Abbot  Gasquet  briefly  replied.
