    Harpsfield, John, D.D., born in Old Fish Street, in the parish of St. Mary Magdalen, London, was the grandson of Nicholas Harpsfield, Esq. This gentleman in 1472 was in the custody of Bishop Wayneflete, and detained in the episcopal prison of Wolvesey Castle, having been indicted and convicted of homicide, and subsequently claimed from the king's prison as a clerk by the bishop, in accordance with the ecclesiastical laws, as entitled to the benefit of clergy. The offence was committed at Windsor Castle on Aug. 21, 1471, and the bishop's com mission for his purgation and delivery from Wolvesey prison is dated Aug. 29, 1472, so that he probably obtained his release before the close of the year.

    John Harpsfield studied his classics with his younger brother Nicholas, at Winchester School. Thence removing to New College, Oxford, he was made a fellow in 1534, and completed his degrees in arts. Afterwards he was appointed chaplain to- Dr. Bonner, Bishop of London, and being inducted into a good
    benefice in that diocese, resigned his fellowship about I 5 5 x In the beginning of Mary's reign, having been created D.D., he was promoted to the archdeaconry of London, about 1554, in the place of John Wymsley. In 1558, shortly before the queen's death, he was made dean of Christ Church, Norwich, the former dean, John Boxall, having other duties to- perform.

    When Elizabeth ascended the throne Dr. Harpsfield was obliged to resign his deanery to John Salisbury, suffragan of Thetford, in 1560. He was then committed prisoner to the Fleet, where he remained about a year, when he was discharged upon finding surety that he should not act, speak, or write against the established church. The remainder of his life was spent in great retirement and devotion in the house of one of his relations in St. Sepulchre's parish, where he died, Aug. 19, 1578. He was buried in the parish church, as appears from the letters of administration taken out by his nearest relative, Anne Worsopp. It was probably at this lady's house that he resided. She was the widow of John Worsopp, gent, and daughter of Richard Baron, Esq., citizen and mercer of London, by his wife, Alice Harpsfield. This Baron's father, Peter, of Saffron Walden, co. Essex, was a serjeant-at-law, and was drowned in the Thames.
    Fox charges Dr. Harpsfield with persecution, but it must be remembered that he was obliged to carry out the measures against the so-called reformers by virtue of his office. There is no record that he exceeded the commands of the Council, or that he infused animosity into their execution. Wood, Athena Oxon., ed. 1691, vol. i. ; Dodd, Cli.

    2427 Notes and Queries Feb., 1918.

    BARBARA GORE.

    (12 S, ii. 89, 137, 251, 296, 518.)

    I THINK those Hampshire subscribers to 4 N. & Q.' who have followed the various communications to its pages on the above
    subject will be glad to know that one of the puzzles has been most satisfactorily solved by Mr. H. A. Pitman, who kindly forwarded
    to me the following notes, with permission to reproduce them.

    In an article on Sir William Ogle and Sarah Stewkeley (12 S. ii. 252) was raised the question as to the identity of " Barbara Gore," whose arms,* Or, three bulls' heads caboshed sable, a crescent on a crescent for difference, are impaled with those of her husband in Farley Chamberlayne Church.
    Mr. Pitman says on this subject :

    "I believe there can be little doubt that William St. John's wife Barbara was the daughter of Nicholas Gore of Nether Wallop, who, according to the ' Victoria History of Hampshire '(vol. iv. p. 528), acquired the Manor of Gar-logs in Nether Wallop about the middle of the sixteenth century. It descended to his son and heir Richard, who conveyed it to his brother William, and it remained in the Gore family till about 1778."

    In a Chancery suit, preserved in the Record Office, is the following bill to Sir Nicholas Bacon. It is undated, but, since he deceased in 1579, the suit would be between 1558 and 1579. ' Chancery Proceedings,' Ser. II. 142, 72 :

    " Purdue c. Gore : Orator Symon Purdue. Whereas Nicholas Gore of Nether Wallop, gent., owned divers leases, goods, and chattels, worth 2,000?., and particularly a farm called Berry Court, and land called ' Garlogge,' in Nether Wallop.. ..Nicholas made his will, and devised the residue of his goods to his eldest son Richard Gore, and .to be executor."


    The testator provided that if Richard Gore let his estates, William Gore, his second son, should enter.

    " Your orator was a bondsman for the execution of the will. Richard Gore has let part of the land, contrary to the will, and so your orator
    is in danger of the bond being put in force against him."

    Defendant, Richard Gore, answers that Dorothy, late wife of Nicholas, married the complainant. According to ' The History
    of Hampshire,' Richard " conveyed the property to his brother William."

    In an Inquisition post mortem made at Calne, Wiltshire, on Sept. 24 in the 32nd of Queen Elizabeth :

    " After the death of William Gore. Jurors say that he was seized of a messuage in the Manor of Newton Tony and died at Wallop on the
    llth of November, 1587, and that William Gore is his son and next heir and was aged sixteen at the death of his father " (writ dated May 5, 1590).

    In the will of this William Gore (proved 1588, P.C.C. 37 Rutland) he appointed as "one of its executors " his son William Gore, and
    John Pitman of Quarley, and Thomas Ely, clerk, of Nether Wallop, its supervisors.* At the end of the will is a note in Latin, dated
    May 10, 1588, to the effect that, as William Gore the younger and his wife, Margaret Read, were both under the age of twenty-one, probate was granted to William St. John, the husband of the sister of the testator, William Gore, and to Leonard Ely of Wonston. one of the trustees.
    In a Chancery suit Gore v. Pitman (Ser. II. 240, 99), dated Dec. 2, 1592, " William Gore of Nether Wallop, gent., one of the executors of William Gore, his father," pleads :

    " Your orator married Margaret Read, and John Pitman, father of Joan, wife of William Gore, the testator, and one Thomas Ely, who
    married the daughter of said John, and one Leonard Ely, being trustees of the testator, have combined with William St. John, and John Purdue, who married with Joan, the testator's wife," &c.

    From the fact that " the younger children of William Gore " were " John, Nicholas, Richard, and William," it is surmised that William the son and heir was by a previous wife. Testator's daughters, " Agnes, Elizabeth, Barbara, and Margery," were given 600. each.

    All the above information, so kindly supplied and arranged by Mr. H. A. Pitman, will be new and very welcome to Hampshire

    * See ' Genealogical Gleanings in England,*
    by H. F. Waters. Boston, 1901.
    12 8. III. FEB. 3, 1917.] ,NOTES AND QUERIES.

    genealogists, and definitely establishes the parentage of Barbara, wife of William St. John. Moreover, it seems probable that she was related to the family of Chamberlain, and was the sister of that " Thomas Gore of Wallop" (12 S. ii. 251) whom Alderman Richard Chamberlain of St. Olave's, Old Jewry, in his will dated 1558 (*), described as " my loving and friendly cousin," to whom he deputed the bringing up of his younger son John Chamberlain, b. 1553, d. 1627 (" the Elizabethan letter writer").

    The nuncupative will of " Thomas Gore of Wallop " was dated July 8, 1569 (proved P.C.C. 39 Lyons, Dec. 2, 1570) : " I Thomas Gore, gent., late of Wallop, being in perfect memory and about to go from Wallop into Dorsetshire.. ." If it be his fortune to die before his return to Wallop, then his brother Richard Gore should have all the money due to him from John Purdue, and all such legacies as were bequeathed to him by his father Nicholas Gore in land. Said Richard to pay his debts, and none of his other brothers and sisters should have any of his goods or legacies.

    It may, therefore, be deduced that Nicholas Gore, dead before July, 1569, left sons Richard (alive 1569), William (died 1587),
    and Thomas (died 1569-70). Their sister Barbara was first married to Thomas Twyne of Xorton St. Valery, in the parish of Wonston near Winchester, who died there in 1566, leaving two daughters his coheirs. Her second marriage to William St. John took place before 1574, when the latter's father mentioned " Barbara, wife of my son William," in his will, April 20, 1574 (P.C.C.). William was born at the mansion house of Farley Chamberlayne on Aug. 1, 1538, as a younger son of Sir John St. John, Kt. (b. 1505, d. 1576), of Lydiard Tregoz in the co. of Wilts, an estate inherited from his great grandmother Margaret, daughter and eventual heir of John, 3rd Baron Beauchamp. She was first married to Sir John St. John, and secondly to John Beaufort (b. 1*04, d. 1444), Duke of Somerset, by
    whom she was mother of Margaret Beaufort, Countess of Richmond (mother of King Henry VII.).

    The St. Johns quartered Beauchamp, Iwardby, and Carew. The second quartering was for Joan, daughter of Sir John Iwardby,
    K.B., the heiress of Farley Chamberlayne, whose mother was Sanchia, daughter of Sir

    * The date 1588, given at 12 S. ii. 251, should
    be 1558, will P.C.C.

    Nicholas Carew of Beddington (a coheiress of her brother Nicholas). Sir John (William's father) was left as a tiny child in the care of his mother (Joan Iwardby) when his father, also Sir John St. John, went " beyond seas " to die in the wars of 1512.

    The little John, after the custom of those days, was sent to be brought up at Beddington, in the household of his mother's cousin
    Sir Richard Carew, whose daughter Margaret he married at an early age. She was the mother of his son and heir Nicholas, who
    inherited Lydiard Tregoz, while William, the son of his second wife Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Richard Whithill, was given Farley
    Chamberlayne, a place William evidently loved. In his will, made on March 31, 1608,* William desired " to be buried in the church
    of Farley St. John,alias Farley Chamberlayne, where I was born, on the 1st of August, 1538," and desired that a monument should
    be erected over his remains. He lies under an altar tomb within the chancel, where his effigy, in full armour, represents him as a
    tall man. The long inscription is now illegible, but the arms are clearly to be discerned : St. John, quartering Beauchamp, Iwardby, and Carew, impaling Gore of Aldrington, co. Wilts. On the margin of his (original) will is a note, dated Feb. 9, 1613 :

    " A commission issued to Henry St. John, the son, to administer the goods of Barbara St. John, now deceased."

    In the will of the aforesaid Henry, dated November, 1614 (and proved 1621, P.C.C.), he directed that " a monument be erected in Wonstoii Church at the upper end of the seat, on the right hand side as you go up, where lyeth bulled my good mother, buried in one grave and at one time with her sister, Mr. Leonard Ely's wife." The burial register has the entry :

    " Thursday, Jan. 3rd, 1613, Margaret, wife of Leonard Ely, Esq., was buryed on the same day and in the same grave with Barbara, ye widow of William Sainte John, Esquire." A Leonard Ely was buried in that church in 1615, and another Leonard was there married in 1616 to Barbara Spencer. Also Dorothy daughter of Leonard Ely married Edmard Tutt of Chilbolton, who was living in 1623, and was cousin of that Sir Alexander Tutt, Kt., of Idmiston, Wilts, who witnessed the will of William St. John in 1608, and figures in the pedigree of the Halswells. Of the Elys very little is definitely known beyond the fact that the " distinguished preacher and upholder of the Reformed

    * Proved June 27, 1609, P.C.C. Dorset 64.

    religion, Michael Rermiger," is said to have married the sister of Leonard Ely. Michael Renniger (b. 1530, d. 1609) was presented
    to the rectory of Broughton (next Nether Wallop) in 1552 by Robert Renniger, and to that of Crawley, near Winchester, in 1560. He was buried in the latter church on Aug. 26, 1609, aged 79, having been the rector for all but fifty years.

    Thomas Ely, brother-in-law of William Gore, and trustee of his will (v. Chancery suit, 1592),* matriculated at Brasenose College, Oxford, in July, 1578, aged 23, was vicar of Wansborough, Wilts, and of Nether Wallop from 1587 to 1615, and Canon of Sarum, 1604. Mr. Pitman says :

    " He purchased a manor in Nether Wallop in 1593, and held it until his death in 1615; his will was proved in the P.C.C. in that year He was ^succeeded by his younger son Thomas Ely, who was buried at Overton in 1630, leaving an infant son and heir, Thomas Ely."

    There is still much relating to the early St. Johns, Gores, Elys, and Stewkeleys that local genealogists desire to know to complete
    their pedigrees, but so much has recently transpired by the help of the readers of * N. & Q.' that they may begin to hope that
    " all things come to those who wait."

    Mr. E. Thurston, C.L.E.
    We regret to record the death of Mr. Edgar Thurston, formerly superintendent of the Government Museum, Madras, which took place at Penzance on October 5 at the age of eighty years. Edgar Thurston, the second son of Charles Bosworth Thurston, was born at Kew and educated at Eton and the medical school of King's College, London, qualifying as L.R.C.P. in 1877. He was appointed superintendent of the Government Museum, Madras, in 1885, retaining that position until his retirement just under twenty-five years later, when he was made C.I.E. He had already received the award of the Kaisar-i-Hind gold medal in 1902. After his retirement he returned to England, andcontinued to devote himself to research.

    Does anyone on the list have any info about Edgar Thurston, the museologist and ethnographer? He wrote extensively on tribes and castes in India in the late 1800s.

    2447 Of Beeslon Castle, Cheshire??

    George Beeston was also a soldier and his active career is told largely on his memorial tomb situated on the north side of the sanctuary in Bunbury Church. A translation of the Latin epitaph is given by Rylands and Beazley in The Monuments of Bunbury Church, (1918), as follows:
    "Here lies buried George Beeston, knight, a promoter of valour and truth; having been brought up from his youth in the arts of war [he was) chosen one of his company of pensioners by the invincible King Henry the Eighth, when he besieged Boulogne [1544]; he merited [the same] under Edward the Sixth in the battle against the Scots at Musselburgh [1547]. Afterwards under the same King, under Mary, and under Elizabeth, in the naval engagements as captain or vice-captain of the fleet, by whom, after that most mighty Spanish fleet of 1588, had been vanquished, he was honoured with the order of knighthood; and now, his years pressing heavily on him, when he had admirably approved his integrity to princes, and his bravery to his adversaries, acceptable to God, and dear to good men, and long expecting Christ, in the year 1601 and in the [refer below] of his age, he fell asleep in Him, so that he may rise again in Him with joy.
    And together with him rests a most beloved wife, Alice, daughter of [Thomas] Davenport of Henbury, esquire, a matron most holy, chaste, and liberal to the poor, who, when she had lived in matrimony 66 years, and had borne to her husband three sons, John, Hugh, and Hugh, and as many daughters, Ann, Jane, and Dorothy, passed into the heavenly country in the year 1591 and in the [refer below] year of her age, with Christ for ever to live.
    The dutifulness of their son Hugh Beeston, esquire, the younger, Receiver General of all the revenues of the Crown as well as in the county palatine of Chester as in the counties of North Wales, set up this monument to parents most excellent and beloved."
    Under the semi-circular tomb arch and above Sir George Beeston's effigy in armour a further inscription, when translated, reads:
    "Hugh Beeston, knight, son of George Beeston, knight, mindful of mortality, and in certain hope of rising again in Christ, placed this monument to his parents, himself, and George Beeston an only son, of the same knightly order, a youth, alas! snatched away by a too early death. Hugh, the father, died in the year of our salvation, 1627, but George, the son, 1611."
    {Hugo Beeston eques auratus, Georgii Beeston etiam aurati filius, mortalitatis memor, et spe certa in Christo resurgendi, hoc sibi et Georgio Beeston unico filio, ordinis itidem equestris iuveni, immatura morte proh dolor prorepto, monumentum posuit. Obiit Hugo pater anno Christi * * * * Georgius filius 1611.)(Sir Hugh Beeston of Beeston was Receiver-general for the Crown in Cheshire and North Wales (Nichols I.112 n. 8); in the inscription the date of his death was left blank because he survived Camden for the better part of three years, dying in 1626.)

    Sir George Beeston's tomb shows a representation of a Tudor ship that has many similarities to the Mary Rose of Henry VIII's reign, a vessel raised from the seabed within the last few years. A little is known about Sir George Beeston's ship, the Dreadnought, which was built in 1573. Her displacement was 400 tons, she carried 41 guns and her crew consisted of 130 mariners, 50 soldiers and 20 gunners.
    Tantalizingly there are spaces on the epitaph for the ages of Sir George and Lady Alice which have been "filled-in" by eminent historians without quoting their information sources. There is some confusion, therefore, about Sir George Beeston's actual age when he was buried, at Bunbury, on 13 October 1601. Thomas Dingley, a visiting antiquary about 1684, attributed ages of 99 and 86 to Sir George and Lady Alice respectively on the dates of their burials. George Ormerod in The History of Cheshire states unequivocally, their ages as 102 and 86 respectively, and these ages have been quoted, almost without exception, ever since. Consequently, it must be concluded that George Ormerod, Cheshire's must eminent historian, did not examine Sir George Beeston's tomb.
    A more recent author, however, J.C.Henderson, writing in 1981, on the History of Parliament, states that George Beeston was a pensioner between 1547 to at least 1589, Ranger of Delamere Forest in 1562, M.P. for Cheshire in 1589, and according to his father's inquisition post mortem he was 22 in 1542, thus implying Sir George was born c.1520. Clearly Henderson's dates are not incompatible with the career facts stated on the epitaph, but there is some difficulty reconciling Sir George's first marriage to Alice Davenport of Henbury. As stated unambiguously on their epitaph Sir George and Lady Alice Beeston had been married for 66 years in 1591.
    Accordingly, if Henderson is to believed, it would mean that Sir George was married in 1525 when he was about 5 years old. If the age of Lady Alice, quoted by both Dingley and Ormerod, is correct, then Alice Davenport was 19 years old on her wedding day and would have resulted in a most unlikely "child plus adult marriage" - not impossible but improbable. If, however, both Dingley and Ormerod were altogether incorrect about their ages and a "child plus child" marriage took place then Henderson's contention gains some support by the birth of Sir George's second son, Hugh Beeston, reputedly born c.1545 when Lady Alice could have been in her twenties, rather than in her forties as implied by both Dingley and Ormerod. In the sixteenth-century child-marriages were not that uncommon and were performed for political and acquisitive reasons, and also because of short life-expectancies. Such an event took place in Bunbury on 25 June 1552, when John Dutton, aged 12 years or thereabouts, was child-married to Eleanor Calveley, daughter of Sir Hugh Calveley - "since which marriage, we two have for the much part cohabited together and used and taken each other as man and wife."
    The mystery of Sir George Beeston's age must, therefore, remain a mystery.
    As we learn from the larger monumental inscription Sir George had three sons and three daughters by his wife Alice. Lady Alice Beeston was the daughter of Thomas Davenport of Henbury, Esq., and married George Beeston in 1525. She died aged 86, and was buried in Bunbury on 9th April 1591. Lady Alice, therefore, enjoyed her title for about three years. Sir George married a second time to Margaret?, daughter of George Ireland from the Hutte of co. Lancaster. [On the present-day Ford site, Halewood.] A third marriage was to Mary, daughter of James Chittwood (Chetwode) of Walcherton, the widow of ? Dorrington of Stafford.
    Sir George Beeston did not reside at Beeston Castle which belonged to the Crown, but at the ancestral home of Beeston Hall. Little, if any, of the Beeston Hall known to Sir George now survives. It was moated, and was almost destroyed in the Civil War, being fired on by the soldiers of Prince Rupert. On 19 March 1645 the Prince dined with the lady of the house, and after dinner, told her he was sorry to make so bad a return to her hospitality and advised her to secure her valuables, as he had to order the house to be burned that night to prevent it being garrisoned by the enemy.
