" Bis dat qui cito dat."
The Colonies form such an important portion of our Empire that a ^history of the leading families, and their connection with the mother
country, cannot fail to be of interest. ^*< The preparation of this work has already been the means of bringing \ together kinsfolk from both sides of the globe, and I trust that the result of my labours may still further tend to promote that family love and unity which has always been the characteristic trait of our race. 5' I have received, from every one of my correspondents, unvarying 4 politeness and attention — from many, most important assistance — and to 1 I now beg to return my best and sincerest acknowledgments. Many imperfections will be apparent, I fear, to the critic of these pages, but I may be permitted to say that the popularity of "Burke's Landed Gentry " was not lessened by the fact that faults were numerous in the first edition. The publication of this volume, by inviting public criticism, is the only way to draw forth more detailed and correct informa- tion on the subject, and I cordially ask all persons interested to put themselves into direct communication with me, so that any points they may raise could be dealt with in a subsequent edition. I need not say that it will afford me much pleasure to reply to any questions affecting the various memoirs.

The ancestors of this family settled at Kington, Thornbury, co. Gloucester, Eng- land, a copyhold belonging to the Duie of Buckingham. The family, of -which there are still many branches existing, is one of the oldest in Gloucestershire, and has now been seated at Kington House for nearly five centuries.
The Suffolk family of Thurston, like the Kentish line, is now extinct, and it is believed that these, the Thurstons, of Gloucestershire, are the only direct descendants of John Turstin, the branches of whose family in COS. Norfolk, Suffolk, and Kent called them- selves Turstin, Thurston, and Thruston, and in the western counties assumed the name of

He claimed a common origin with the Bassets, and acquired Chemingnarde from William and Maud Stafford. On his death, in 1413, the family appears to have broken up and to have found new homes at Wootton-under-Edge, Thornbury, and other places. His great grandson,

Tlie Davenports descend from Ormus de Davenport, living in the time of the Conquest.
This family was seated at Great Wigston, in Leicestershire, in the 16th century, where they resided at the Moated House, which was standing till abont 1745, the site being now the property of Sir Samuel Davenport's brother, Mr. Henry Devereux Davenport. There is a tradition in the family that this property was bought for a younger son of the Davynports of Bramhall, Cheshire, in the 16th century. In that century (1553) Thomas Davynporte was mayor of Leicester. He en- tertained Makt Queen of Scots in Leicester Castle. His son purchased lands at Q-reat Wigston, in the parish registers of which place entries occur relating to the family from the commencement of the registers in 1569. Numerous monumental tablets exist in the parish church of Grreat Wigston, of which some members of the family were vicars.

Hineage.
This family is believed to be identical with that of Bourchier. Mr. Bowker's ancestor, according to tradition, having lost all his estates, through adherence to the Pretender, Charles Stuaet, was compelled to change Ills name from Bourchier to Bowker.
Tlie Anglo-Norman family of Bourchier is of great antiquity. They are frequently men- tioned in English history. One of the family
is famous as having been the patron of Caxton, the printer, and an Archbishop Bourchier, who was killed at the battle of Barnet, is in- terred at Westminster Abbey.
Thomas Bowkeb, Esq., left co. Westmore- land to settle in Northumberland. He was father of several children, amongst whom were Benjamin and Miles ; the latter gentleman.

ILt'neage.
According to tradition the ancestors of the Aberdeenshire family of Gill came originally from Cumberland (where, at a very early period, they owned lands, amongst others the bai'ony of G-illsland) into Scotland. Certain it is that the surname is of great antiquity in both countries.
In 1296, Patrick del Gryle is amongst the gentlemen of Peeblesshire who sign the Rag- man Koll (see " Chambers' Peeblesshire," p. 65). This prefix " del " was not uncommon at that period. The above Patrick Gill, as well as some others of the surname, appear in various of the Scotch counties as people of some position.
It ha3 been the constant family tradition that tbis family is directly descended from a John Gill, wlio was Provost of Perth early in the 15th century. The various records of Perth show that the family had then been very floru-ishing, and besides owning the lands of Haltoun and Torsopy, in the county of Perth (John Gill, lord of Torsopy, appears as witness to a charter, signed at Edin- burgh, 11th February, 1366), held such positions of trust and distinction as proved them lo be worthy men.
John Gill, of Haltoun, was burgess, baillie, and afterwards, 1403, provost of Perth. Another John Gill, burgess of Perth (prob- ably father of the former) is mentioned fre- quently in the town records from 1328 downwards. John Gill, burgess of Perth, and M.P. for that town, 1364, 1367, 1369 and 1373, together with the old family of the Mercers, of Aldie, takes a prominent part, at this pei-iod, in the management of public affairs, and in 1406 — 7 proceeds to Paris with Sir Walter Stewart of Ralston, and others, to renew the league between Scotland and France. He is mentioned as deceased be- tween 10th June, 1-118, and 27th July, 1420. In 1410, John Gill (probably a son of the last-mentioned John Gill) was one of the three first lecturers on philosophy and logic in St. Andrew's University, under bishop Henry Wardlaw, the pious founder of that seat of learning. The family, much reduced in cir- cumstances, appear in the records of Perth- shire as late as 1648.
The Aberdeenshire branch are believed to iiave left Perthshire, and to have settled in
Aberdeenshire, in the early half of the 16th century. Most probably they had done so to escape some of the constant feuds only too common at that period, but owing to the very defective state of the registers and re- cords generally (the Aberdeen and Banff wills were unfortunately nearly all destroyed by &re previous to 1721), the connection of this family with their more southern jjro- genitors cannot well be traced.
Alexanbeb Gill, b. about 1550, who settled at Auchlyne, in the parish of Aberdour, in the Buchan district of Aberdeenshire, m. Barbara Findlay, and was dead before 18th March, 1618. Their son,

M. C. (initials on tombstone ; Cumming may have been the maiden name of Mrs. Gill, as a family of this surname are interred in an adjoining grave). Many members of the Gill family were interred at Boyndie, although there are only two tombstones there. Issue, two sons,

III. Florence Mabel. This gentleman, who was educated at Ballymena Academy, co. Antrim, Ireland, emigrated to Australia, where his brothers had preceded him thii-teen years previously, and arrived in Melbourne in May, 1852. After visiting the goldfields with some degree of success, he entered into pastoral pursuits, subse- quently, in conjunction with his brothers, purchasing Longerenong, one of the best stations on the Wimmera ; and afterwards, Yanko station, Murrumbidgee, New South Wales, with other properties. He was twice elected a member of the Legislative Assembly of Victoria for the Wimmera ; and was twice elected (first in 1875) to the Upper House of Legislature for the Western Province. He built the " Wilson Hall," of the Melbourne University ; introduced the salmon into Australian waters ; is the author of works entitled : Salmon at the Antipodes, The Angora Goat, and other valuable papers on acclimatisation. Sir Samuel Wilson was vice-president of the Melbourne International Exhibition of 1880, and a royal commissioner for the Fisheries Exhibition in 1883.

Hineage.
SlE Samtjel Wilsox is paternally of a branch of the family of Wilson, settled in the north of Ireland. In the female line he claims descent from the ancient histi ric house of Kirkpatiick, of Closeburn, Dum- friesshire, traceable back to Ivone Kirk- PATKICK, who lived in the time of David I, and witnessed a charter of Robert Brus, Lord of Annandale, to the monks of Abbeyholm. In the troublous times of the latter half of the 17th century, three brothers (so says tradition) of the chief of the Closeburn family, crossed in an open boat from Gallo- way to the county of Antrim, landed at the Gi-iant's Causeway, and settled in the north of Ireland, where several families descended from them are still resident. One of these,
James Kiekpateick, of Kinflay, co. An- trim, had a daughter, Elizabeth Kiek- pateick, b. in 1740 ; m. 1759, John Wilson, of Birneyhill (6. 1719 ; d. 1789), and had ten sons and two daughters. Of the former the seventh son,

In 1859, Mr. O'Halloran received an appointment in the Audit Office, South Australia, and, after passing ten years in that department, was, in 1869, appointed clerk to the Executive Council and clerk to the Court of Appeals, which offices he retained until 1871 ; acted also as private secretary to the Right Hon.

Soon after his retirement from the government service, in 1871, Mr. O'Halloran came to England, and found occupation in the city of London, where he filled secretarial appointments for a period extending over seven years. In 1873 he proceeded to New Zealand and travelled through both islands, visited the Cape of Good Hope in 1877, in the following year re-visited Australia, in 1882 proceeded to north-western Canada, and again visited Canada in 1884.

The Bonytlions are an ancient Cornish family. Their original seat, Bonython, is " in the Lizard district in the parish of Cury, a bleak wild tract on the serpentine forma- tion, where the sea washes the lonely shores of Gunwalloe ; and in this remote district they flourished for many generations in great repute, exercising a wide influence, botii social and political, throughout the length and breadth of the land" (Gentleman's Maffazine, February, 1868). In the 12th century, Simon de Bonytlion went into Ireland as the king's special representative ; and one of the Cornish historians mentions a member of the family as a man of great repute in the reign of Henet V. During the preceding reign, the well-known estate of Carclew, iiear Falmouth, with an ad- joining manor, passed by marriage to Richard Bonython, son of Simon Bonython of Bony- tlion. Later on, the family had other seats, notably one in St. Columb Minor. They intermarried with the leading families of Cornwall. Sir Francis G-odolphin, the famous soldier of the reign of Queen Elizabeth, and the ancestor of the Earls of Q-odolphin, was the son of Katherine, daughter of Edmund Bonython. But it was during the troublous days of the Stuart dynasty that the Bony- thons figured conspicuously. They held various important official positions, had seats in Parliament and were to be found as distinguished men at the Bar, as well as in the Army and the Navy. The poet Long- fellow was a descendant of Captain Eichard Bonython, who was one of the original pro- prietors of what is now known as Maine in the United States of America. Both Bony-
thon and Carclew have passed into otlier hands. At the beginning of the present century, the only property which remained was in St. Columb Minor. There lived John Bonython, Esq., the head of the family, who was the son of Thomas Bont- thon, Esq., by Mary Eoberts. his wife, and was b. in 1755. His eldest son (by Ann, daughter of John Langdon, Esq.),
Thomas Bonython, Esq., was b. in 1787 ; emigrated first to Canada, and afterwards to Sovith Australia, whither he was followed by his eldest son (George Langdon) and grand- son (John Langdon) ; m. 5tli October, 1816, Ann, daughter of John Harris Langdon, Esq. of Newport (she was b. at Torpoint, co. Cornwall in 1799, and is still living in Launceston, Tasmania), and d. at Mount Barker, South Australia, 21st September, 1860. His eldest son,

Jeremiah Fbench, Esq. (the great grand- father of the above), or his immediate ancestor, is said to have come from the neigh- bourhood of Manchester, co. Lancaster. There is some account of him given in Munson's Early History of Manchester, Vermont, U.S.A., in 1764, to which point he came from New York State, and the public records at Montpelier, the capital of Vermont, contain much information about him. On the breaking out of the Revolution he, with a few others at Manchester, refused to assist the rebels, and joined the British A.rmy in Canada, serving as an officer under Burgoyne. In consequence of his loyalty to the British Crown his lands at Manchester were con- fiscated, and his wife and children driven from their home and land across the border. In 1792 he was a member of the first Canadian Parliament, and his name appears in the original records of the Parliament, which are in England. During the visit of the Duke of Kent (father of Queen Victoria), in the early part of this century, he was entertained at the residence of Jeremiah Fi-ench, and it was during the festivities on this occasion that the latter's daughter, a young girl, was accidentally shot by her own father, when the gentlemen, including the duke, were at target

There were three families bearing this surname in the time of Hbnbt VIII. Sir Richard is supposed to be descended from the Eet. S. Caetwright, pi-incipal of one of the colleges in Oxford, temp. Queen Elizabeth. Mr. Cartwright, who was sent to Boston by Charles II, in 1663, as commissioner to tlie then colony of Massachusetts, is also thought to be an ancestor of Sir Richard John Cart- wright.
Richard Caetwright, Esq., was h. in London, February, 1720, settled in New York, 1741. In the troubles of 1775-6 his house was sacked and burnt, and he and liis son driven into exile. It is probable that all documentary evidence which might have proved the family to have been a cadet of the Cartwrights of Aynhoe then perished. He m. in 1743, Miss Beaseley, of Albany, State of New York (descended from one of the early Dutch families wlio settled in New Amster- dam when a Dutch colony), and had issue,

Robert Hamilton, until this gentleman went to Niagara, Mr. Cartwright remaining at Kingston. Soon after his settlement in Kingston, Mr. Cart-
wright was appointed judge of the Common Pleas, and on the division of the provinces was appointed a member of the Legislative Council, but declined to accept a seat in the Executive Council, which was several times offered to him.

Ht'neage.
The name of Baillie is met with in the time of Edwaed I. Sir John Baillie is mentioned as being appointed one of the arbitrators to hear and determine upon the claims of the competitors for the Crown of Scotland in 1292, whose name and seal, seven stars with the motto " Quid clarius astris," is attached to that document. Tradition says that on a certain occasion one of the family single-handed killed a wild boar, and relieved his sovereign from danger, ■whereupon he was desired henceforth to bear nine stars, which all his descendants do, but some of them have the boar's head for a crest, and others the arm and seymitar, being the weapon with which the deed was done.
SiE William Baillie, of Lamington, co. Lanark, by Marian, his wife, daugliter of Sir John Seton, of Seton, had a numerous issue. The three eldest sons, it is said, had maimed a clergyman, who had been taken into the house as tutor, for a grievous offence which he had committed in their family, of which injury he died. The power of the Church at this time being great in Scotland, the three brothers were (continues the tradition) obliged to fly.
The eldest, who settled in Inverness, is stated to have fought at the battle of Brechin, and to have been for his services rewarded with the lands of Dunain and
Torbreck, part of the castle lands of Inver- ness; from him springs the family of Doch- four, and its derivative branch of Bedoastle and Tarradale (see Burke's Landed Qentri/ of Q-reat Britain and Ireland'). The second, of whom presently, settled in Ireland, and the third went to the Isle of Anglesey, and founded the family of which the Marquess of Anglesey is a descendant. The second brother was
Alexawdee Baillie, who settled in Ire- land, at Innishargie, co. Down, in the reign of James I., about the year 1620, and d. 1687. He had issue, John (Capt.), of whom presently; and Edward, who settled at Ring- dufferin, co. Down, and was ancestor of the family of Bailie of Ringdufferin (see Burke's Landed Oentry of Great Britain and Ire- land). The eldest son,
Capt. John Baillie, who was h. 1623, d. 1687, and was s. in Innishargie by his eldest son,
James Baillie, Esq., who was h. 1653, and d. 1710. He was s. by his second son,
John Baillie, Esq. of Innishargie, 6. 1697, who m. Jane, daughter of Matthew Forde, Esq. of Seaforde, co. Down, and d. 1759. He had issue,

This family, styled by Camden in his Britanuica "the honourable and ancient house of Tyrwhitts, knts.," has been seated for several centuries in the north of England. It has had an able historian in one of its members, Mr. Robert Philip Tyrwhitt. The
first person of the name of whom we have any certain account, is a SlE Hkeculps, who is said (on the authority of the Vincent and Harleian MSS.) to liave been knighted and settled in Northumberland, 2nd William I. This knight, or his son, bearing the same

name, married a daughter of Sir Thomas Scargill, Knt., and was living A.D. 1109, 10th Hehry I.
Sir Hercules is stated to have thus acquired the surname of Tyrwhitt : — Severely wounded in defending a bridge, single handed, against numerous assailants, at the moment he had succeeded in ibrcing them to retire, he fell exhausted amongst the flags and rushes of an adjoining swamp, while the attention of his party, who, in the interim had rallied, was fortunately directed to the spot where he lay by a flock of lapwings (or as called in some counties tyrwhits) screaming and hovering above, as is customary with those birds when disturbed in the vicinity of their nests. Camden, however, in liis Remains, derives the name from the place so called. The son of Sir Hercules,
SiB Robert Tyrwhitt, was Lord of Tyrwhitt and Assancke, in Northumberland. He wedded a daughter of Sir John Wither- ington, and from this marriage descended, through a line of ^jrogenitors who allied with tlie Umfravilles, Lowthers, Harbottles, Ogles, Vauxes, of Gillesland, Nevilles, &c.,
Robert Tyrwhitt, grandson of Sir Oliver, who was grandson of Sir Hercules. This gentleman, who is described (Harl. MSS. 810) as " Robertus Tyrwhit arm. de Ketilby, com. Line, ac Tyrwhitt com. North- umbria," is mentioned in several of the MSS. sometimes as of Tyrwhitt and at others as of Ketilby. He m. Anne, daughter of William Wyciiffe, Esq. of WyclifEe (a sister or cousin of the celebrated John Wyciiffe, who was succeeded in the mastership of Balliol Col- lege, Oxford, by Thomas Tyrwhitt, a cadet of the family), and had two sons,
I. Thoma?, of Tyrwhitt, who m. a daughter of Alan de Boisterick, and was ancestor of the Tyrwhitts, of Northumberland.
II. William (Sib).
The second son.
Sir William Tyrwhitt, of Ketilby, in the county of Lincoln, is described in the Harleian MSS., No. 1550, as " Primarius Justicianus Anglise," but of Sir William's being invested with the chief-justiceship we liave no other authority. He in. the daughter and heiress of John G-rovale, Esq. of Harps- well, in Lincolnshire, and liad (with a daughter, Cecilia, who wedded Sir William Newport, Knt., and became, after her husband's death, Abbess of Ipswich) a son and successor.
Sib Robert Tyrwhitt, Knt., of Ketilby, who was one of the judges of the court of king's bench, in the reigns of Henry IV, V, and VI ; his patents, four in number, are dated 8th Henry IV, 1st Henry V, Ist Henry VI, and may be found in Calen- darium Patentium, Twrri Londinensi. He is named among the " Tireurs des Peticions " to Parliament either for England or Ijascony and Aquitaine, for every parlia- ment between 9ih Henby IV and 7th Heney VI. That the boldness of the feudal
chief, however, strongly predominated in the character of this learned functionary over the meekness of the christian judge, appears too evident by the following curious extract from Cotton's records : — " 13 Henry IV, William Lord Rosse, of Famlake, complayneth against Robert Tirwhitt, one of the justices of the king's bench, for withholding from him the manor of Molton Rosse, in Lincoln- shire, and laying wait for the said Lord Rosse with the number of 500 men. Sir Robert Tirwhitt before the kynge confesseth his fault and craveth pardon, and offeringe to stand to by order of two lords of the kindred of the sayd Lord Rosse as they should choose, whereunto the kynge agreed, and the sayd Lord Rosse chose the archbishop of Canterbury and the Lord Grey, chamberlaine to the kynge, who made alonge award, leav- ing the right of common of pasture in Wragby, in com. Line, to the determination of Sir William Gascoigne, chief justice, and it was enjoigned to the said Sir Robert Tirwhitt that at a day certaine he shod repair at Molton Rosse 2 tunnesof Gascoigne wyne, 2 fatt oxen, and 12 fatt sheepes, and offer rej)aration. And that he should bring together all knights, esquires, and yeomen, that were of his own, and that they shod all confess their fault and crave pardon, and further offer to the sayd Lord Rosse 500 markes in money, and that the sayde Lorde Rosse should refuse the money, graunt him pardon, and take his dinner only." The whole of the proceedings in this matter, from their commencement by the petition of . William Lord Roos to the award of the arbitrators above mentioned, are recorded at great length in the rolls of Parliament, 13 Henry IV. The details are very curious, and throw much light on the manners of that day. The award is an object of particular interest to the philological antiquary, as being almost the earliest specimen, on record, of English as a written language.
This feud between the families of Rosse (or Roos) and Tyrwhitt continued up to the time of James I who, on the occasion of several lives being lost on both sides in a casual rencontre during a hunting party, caused a gallows to be erected at Molton Rosse, near Belvoir, declaring that he would hang the first like offender on it. This gallows is said to be renewed from time to time, up to the present day, whenever it falls into decay. (Gough's Camden, vol. ii, p. 388 ; History of Lincolnshire, 1826 ; and Gent's Magazine, part I, A.D. 1799.) Sir Robert had issue,
I. William (Sir), his heir.

The elder son,
Siu William Tyhwhitt, Knt., of Ketilby, shared in the glories of Agincourt (Nicholas's Agincourt), and received by royal grant, 8th Henky A', the bailiwick of three towns in P"ra.nce ; in this grant he is styled, " toutissimo dilecto militi meo Willo Tyrwhit." Sir William, who was likewise appointed in the Ist Hen BY VI, cenesclial of certain castles and parks in the county of Lincoln, founded ttie hospitals of Wranby and Glanford Brigg, in that sliire, and the chauntry and chapelry of Higham, in Essex ; was sheriff for York- shire, 14th Henry VI, and one of the knights of the body to that monarch.

Sir Robert's eldest son and heir,
Sir William Tyrwhitt, Knt., seneschal of the priory of Gaykewell, served the office of sheriff for Lincolnshire, 28th Henry VIII, and, with his brother Robert, was one of the ecclesiastical commissioners for that county, in tlie 26th of the same reign.

I. Robert (Sir), of Ketilby, who raised and led 250 of his tenantry with the
the Tyrwhitts, descended from Adam Tyr- whitt, second son of Brian Tyrwhitt, of Tyr- whitt, and in the fourth degree from Sir Hercules, became extinct, the great part of their possessions in the counties of York and Lincoln devolving on the Tyrwhitts of Ketilby. A William Tyrwhitt, of this branch, after- wards Sir William, who married a daughter of John, Lord Lumley, was at Agincourt, with three archers ; he was son of Robert Tyrwhitt, of Beverley, who died 6th January, 1427, two years before his contemporary. Sir Robert Tyrwhitt, of Ketilby. It appears, too, that soon after the first Sir William Tyrwhite, described as " Primarius Justicianus Anglise," settled at Ketilby, that the lordship of Tyr- whitt, in Northumberland, was usui-pcd by a prior of the Order of Knights Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem ; it shortly after came into the possession of the Ogles, who were connected with the Tyrwhitts.

In November of the same year, a few days before the battle of Lutzen, he was taken prisoner by the Imperialists, whilst on a reconnoitring party with Gustavus, and was thus debarred from sharing the honours of that fatal day. He escaped after the action. In 1642, he joined King Charles, at York, with 155 men, and in the same year was appointed to a principal command in the wars in Ire- land, where he d., 1643, and was buried in Christ Church, Cork.

HCineage.
This family is lineally descended from that of Campbell, of Aberuehill, Baronets of Nova Scotia. The immediate ancestor of the family is SiE John Campbell, of Lawers, CO. Perth (great grandson of John Campbell, of Lawers, youngest son of SiE Colin Camp- bell, first of Glenorchy, 3rd son of Duncan, 1st LoED Campbell, the ancestor of the families of Aegyle and Beeadalbane, see those titles in Burke's Feerar/e), who m. his cousin Beatrix, daughter of Sir Colin Camp- bell, of Glenorchy, and had three sons,
I. Sir James Campbell, of Lawers, m. Jean, daughter of James, 1st Lobd Colville oe Culhoss (see Burke's Peerage). Their son, John, m. 1629, Margaret, Baeoness Loudoun, and was elevated to the peerage, 12th May, 1633, by the titles of Baeon Faerin- TEANE AND Mauchline, and Eael of Loudoun, to him and his male heirs for ever ; but his lordship joining the opposition to the Court, the patent was, by a special order, stopped at the Chancery, and the title superseded until 1641, when it was allowed with the original precedency. In this year he was appointed high chancellor of Scotland, and first commissioner of the Treasury ; and after the decapitation of the king, when the Parliament re- assembled in 1648, Lord Loudoun was chosen president of the Session, which ordered the Proclamation of Charles II. Upon his majesty's subsequent defeat at Worcester, the earl was not only deprived of his office, but forced
to conceal himself in the Highlands, while an act of attainder and forfeiture passed against him. His lordship and his son. Lord Mauchline, had the honour, afterwards, of being specially excepted frojn the indemnity granted by the usurper to the people of Scot- land. He d. 15th March, 1662, and was s. \>y his only son James, 2nd Earl of Loudoun (see that title in Burke's Peerage), who is represented as lieu- general by the Earl of Loudoun and as heir male by Sir James Campbell, of Aberuehill, 13ait.
II. Colin Campbell, of Aberuehill.
III. Archibald Campbell, prior of Stratli- Bllan.
In 1594 Sir John acquired Aberuehill, and other lands, from the family of Moray, of Abereairny, and the following year resigned them in favour of his second son,
Colin Campbell, of Aberuehill, who had a crown charter of confirmation in that estate, 12th July, 1596, and acquired Craigineh, Leonards, and other lands. In 1612, Archi- bald, Earl of Argyll, justice general of Scot- land, granted a commission to " my lovit Colin Campbell, of Aberuehill," to apprehend or pursue to the death all persons of " that most unhappie and barbarous raice of the name of M'Gregor," his majesty's rebels. An Act of Parliament, 1617, against the elan Gregor, mentions depredations committed by tliem on the estate of Aberuehill. Colin Campbell had issue by his wife, Jean, daughter of Harie Drummond, of Eicearfon, I. James (Sinj.

He represented the co. of Perth in Parliament from 1690 to 1702. In 1669 Sir Colin Campbell acquired the barony of Kilbryde, with its fine old castle near Dun- blane, Perthshire, the seat of the Earls of Menteith, still the property of his represen- tative. A crown charter a few months later erected all his lands into one free barony, hold- ing direct of tlie king, to be called Aberuchill, and made Innerucliill into a burgh of barony. Lord Aberuchill suffered losses amounting to 17,201Z. at the hands of the Scots from the Highland Army, under Lord Dundee, and had an Act of Parliament granting him com- pensation, which he appears never to have received.

The family of Alison from very early times resided in the parish of Avondale, Lanark- shire. The Gaelic name is McAlister, and was changed into Alison when the clan was driven from Loupe, Argyllshire, by the fol- lowers of King Robert the Beuce. Alex- ander McAlister, a descendant of Gromerled, the Lord of the Isles, took the side of Baliol, and, with his brother John, was attacked by King Robert the Bruce in his principal stronghold called Castle Sweyn, in Knapdale. Compelled to flee he was taken pri-oner on liis way to Ayrshire and was confined in Dundonald Castle, where he d. in 1300. His brother John escaped to the abode of Sir Winter de Hamilton, in Hamilton, the an- cestor of the dukes of that name, who also at first took the side of Baliol. To preserve liim and his followers from the wrath of Bruce, Sir Winter de Hamilton placed them in Avondale. There tliey have continued for t;00 years, and a great many of the small estates in that neighbourhood are still owned by their descendants. Their original estate of Loupe was confiscated and given to the youngest brother, who remained faithful to £ruce, and that branch of the clan retained the ancient name of McAlister to the present century and are frequently mentioned in Scotch history. The Alison family are also alluded to several times in the time of the Covenanters. One Archibald Alison, of Windyedge, a farm belonging to the ancient estate of Cairnduff, fought at the battle of Drumclog against Claverhouse, afterwards Viscount Dundee, and also at the battle of Bothwell Bridge ; but at the skirmish at Ayrsmoss, he was taken prisoner and suifered martyrdom at the Grassmarket of Edinburgh
in 1679. His dying testimony is recorded in the well-known volume called The Cloud of Witnesses. The sword of Michael, his brother, is still in the hands of the family, a sword which he wielded at the battles of Drumclog and Bothwell Bridge, and at the siege of Londonderry. His estate is still in the possession of a cousin of the present William Alison, Esq.

Etneage.
The Macartliurs were originally the chiefs of the clan Campbell.
The first appearance of the Campbells is in the reign of Alexander II of Scotland. The most ancient MS. genealogies attest their Gaelic origin. When iirst mentioned we find them divided into two great families, after- wards distinguislied by the patronymics of Macarthur and MaoCailinmore. Till the reign of Robert Bruce the Campbells did not possess a heritable right to any property in Argyllshire. The situation of the Mac- arthur branch at this time was very different, for we find them in possession of a very ex- tensive territory in the earldom of G-armoran, the original seat of the clan. It is, there- fore, impossible to doubt that Macarthur was at tliis time the head of the elan. This posi- tion he appears to have maintained until the reign of James I of Scotland. In 1487, when this monarch summoned his parliament at Inverness for the piurpose of entrapping the highland chiefs, John Macarthur was one of those who fell into the snare and seems to have been amongst the few specially devoted to destruction. He was beheaded along with Alexander the Lord of Garmoran, and his whole property forfeited with the exception of " Strachur," and some lands in Perthshire, which remained to his descendants. His position at the head of the clan is sufficiently pointed out by the historian. Bower, who calls him " Princeps Magnum apud suos, et dux Mille Nominum."
Macarthur of Strachur was chief of the clan Campbell previous to 1427, since which date the oldest cadet, MacCailinmore of Campbell of Loch Arve, now Duke of Argyle, has filled that position, not by right of de- scent, but by feudal and territorial power.
John Macarthur, Esq. of Strachur, Loch Arve, N.B., was slain at Culloden. He had seven sons (all of whom fought at Culloden Moor, a.d. 1746) : — i. Charles, who uiort- gagen his estate to the MacCailinmore or Argyle family. He had issue, two sons,
1. Charles, in whose time the Strachur mort- gage fell due and was foreclosed; and, 2. Duncan, who entered the royal navy in 1794 as an assistant surgeon. He eventually rose to the rank of a "pliysician of the fleet," and it was he who attended the great Duke of Wellington at his death ; ii. a son, who, after Culloden, went to Perthshire. His grandson was " Macarthur of Little Mill," Perthshire; ill. a son, whose grandson was " Macarthur of Hinton," a purser in the royal navy. He wrote a book of considerable merit on Naval Courts Martial ; IT. Alexander, of whom presently ; V. a son, also went to Perthshire, after Culloden. His grandson was a lieutenant R.N. ; Tl. a son, supposed to have been killed at Culloden; and Tii. a son, supposed to have gone out to the American colonies. The fourth son,
Alexander Macarthur, Esq., fled from Scotland after the battle of Culloden, and apyie.'irs to have taken refuge in the West Indies, whence, after a time, he returned and settled at Devonport, Devonshire, England. He m. a Scotch lady, and by her had two sons,
I. James, of whom presently.
II. John, of Camden Park, Menangle, Camden co., and of Elizabeth Farm, Paramatta, Cumberland co., both New South Wales, Australia ; b. in 1767, at Plymouth, co. Devon ; and entered the army in 1782, and at the close of the war in 1783 (his regiment having been reduced, and he being put on half -pay) entered upon a course of study to complete his education. After the lapse of some time he pur- chased a captain's commission in the 102nd Regiment, destined for New South Wales ; embarked for Sydney with his young wife and infant son, afterwards General Sir Edward Macarthur, and arrived in Sydney in June, 1790. As early as 1791 he began to turn his attention to agricul-

ture ; in comiiion ■witli tlie other officers of llie regiment, lie was offered 100 acres of land near Parraniatta, -with a promise that -wlioeTer first brought his land into cultivation should have an additional quantity. Captain Mac- arthur was the one to claim this privi- lege, and he it was who, in 1795, first broke Australian soil with a plough, all previous cultivation having been carried on in true primitive style, with the hoe. On the land thus acquii-ed he established a homestead, to which he gave the name of " Elizabeth Farm." In 1794, he purchased from a brother officer sixty Bengal sheep, which had been imported into the colony, and from that time devoted himself to the production of fine wool in Australia. In 1796 he obtained from the Cape some pure Spanish merino sheep, in all five ewes and three rams, and with this new and valuable blood he commenced to crop his hairy sheep ; and whilst others were devot- ing themselves to the jiroduction of carcasses, he steadily jaersevered in his original object — the production of fine wool. In 1801 he took the first sam- ples of merino wool to England, and having submitted them to the inspec- tion of a committee of manufacturers, they reported that the merino wool was equal to any Spanish wool, and the crossbred of considerable value. Supported by the manufacturers, who, in the unsettled state of Euroj^ean affairs, were fully alive to the advan- tage of obtaining a national source of supply for their raw material, and en- couraged by Lord Camden, the Secre- tary of State, Captain Macarthur decided on retiring from the army and devoting himself to the production of fine wool, on condition that he should receive a grant of not less than 5,000 acres of land in any locality he might point out. He obtained some sheep from the royal flock of Spanish merinos at Kew, and retvirning to the colony in 1805, in the sliip "Argo," which he had purchased, he succeeded in landing five rams and one ewe. The land which was granted to him by Lord Camden, then known as " The Cowpastures," became the foundation of the Camden Park Estate, where the descendants of her grandfather's flock are preserved with great care by the present owner. After taking a lead- ing part in the deposition of Governor Bligh (a most accurate account of which is to be found in Eusden's History of Australia, vol. i), Captain Macarthur was, with several officers of the New South Wales corps, sent to England under arrest, and after an absence of seven years, being honour- ably acquitted, he returned to Aus- tralia in 1817, provided by the
Government with suflncient accommo- dation for himself and his sons, James and William. John Macarthur was called the " Father of the Colony." In 1825 he was appointed member of the first Legislative Council of New South Wales. The expectations that he liad formed of the wool trade of the colony were crowned with com- plete success, and the wines from the vineyard which he formed at Camden have taken the first rank at international exhibitions. He m., 1788, Elizabeth, daughter of R. Veal, Esq. of Judgeworthy, Bridge Eide, Devon- shire, England, and d. at Camden Park, 10th April, 1834, having had issue by her (who d. in February, 1850),

He served throughout the Peninsular War ; was present at the battles of Corunna, Yittoria, the Py- renees, Nive, Nivelle, Orthes, and Toulouse, and was with the 39th Eegiment in Sicily, Canada, Spain, and France. After his return to England he was, for several years, secretary to the lord chamberlain ; was appointed to the charge of a district in Ireland during the troubles of 1837 ; made lieutenant-colonel 1841 ; subsequently went to New South Wales as deiiuty adjutant- general ; made colonel 1854 ; in 1855, appointed commander-in- chief of H.M. forces in Australia ; promoted to the rank of lieuten- ant-general, 1856 ; and from 1st.

Ht'neage.
At the G-eneral Survey,
Bebteam de Vebditn (stated to have been son of G-odfreye, Comte de Verdun, sur- named "le Caplif ") possessed Farnham Royal, Buckinghamshire, holding the same by grand serjeanty, viz., by the service of providing a glove on the day of tiie king's coronation for his right hand, and of supijort- ing the monarch's right arm during the same ceremony, so long as he bore the royal sceptre. At the coronation of King G-eoege IV, it is believed that Sir G-. F. Verdon's grandfather was named as the person quali- fied by descent for this service, but being too old and infirm to attend the Court, it was performed by some representative Irish peer on his behalf. Bertram had three sons.
I. NoEMAN, his heir.
II. Milo, d. in Ireland.
III. William, of Brisingham, co. Nor- folk, witness to a charter a.d. 1100, ancestor of the Veedons of Norfolk, Suffolk, and Northampton. The re- presentative of the Verdons of Bri- singham,

John (Sir), Knt., of Mar- thesham, co. Suffolk (having removed from Brisingham), who, dying 1346, left by Maud, his wife, three sons,
1. Thomas (Sir), on whom Brixworth was settled in 1329 ;
he d. v.p, leaving by his wife, Alice, an only son, Thomas, who d. s.p., before 25th Edwaed III.
2. John (Sir), was summoned to par- liament as a baron, from 27th January, 1332, to 22nd Jan- uary, 1336, and again 25tli Febru- ary, 1342. He m. twice : by Maud, his first wife, he had a son, Edmund, who d. s.p., v.p., andauda,ugh- ter, Margaret,OT. first to Hugh or Henry Bradshaw ; and se- condly, to Sir John Pilkington ; and by Isabel, his second wife, daughter of Sir John Vise de Lore, he had a daughter, Isabel, m. to Sir Imbert Noon, Knt.,amongst whose heirs-general this barony of Verdon is now in abeyance.

I. Alicia, m. to Ivo de Pantulf, of Wem, CO. Salop. Bekteam de Vebdon, the eldest son, was sheriff of Leicestershire from the 16th to the 30th of King Henry II's, reign inclusive. He subsequently attended Richaed I to the Holy Land, and was at the siege of Aeon, which place, upon its surrender, was com- mitted to his custody. This Bertram founded the abbey of Croxden, co. Stafford, anno 1176, and was otherwise a liberal benefactor to tlie Church. He ot. first, Maud, daughter of Eobert de Ferrers, Earl of Derby, by whom he had no issue ; and secondly, Eoesia, but of what family is unknown. He d. at Joppa, in 1192, having had issue,

The second son and heir,
Thomas de Veedon-, m. Eustachia, daughter of Gilbert Bassett, and by her (who m. secondly, Richard Camville) he had no issue. He' d. in Ireland, amio 1199, s.p., when he was s. by his brother,
Nicholas de 'Veedon, who, in the 6th John, paid to the king lOOZ., as also a courser and palfrey, for livery of those lands in Ireland, whereof his father died possessed. But in 12 years afterwards he took part with the rebellious barons, whereupon all his lands were seized by special precepts from the crown to the sheriffs of Warwick, Lei- cester, Stafford, Lincoln, Bucks, and Oxford, and placed in the custody of William de Cantilupe, during the king's pleasure. On his submission, however, to King Heney III, those lands were restored to him in the first year of that monarch, and he appears after- wards to have enjoyed the favour of the king. He died in 1231, leaving (by Joan, his wife) an only daughter and heiress,
RoEsiA DE Veedon, who m. Theobald Le Botillee, of the noble family of Butler, of Ireland, but being so great an heiress, re- tained her maiden name after marriage, which her husband adopted. At the time of her father's decease, she appears to have been a widow. This lady, who founded the abbey of Grace Dieu, for Cistertian monks, at Beldon, in Leicestershire, d. in 1248, leaving issue,
John, her heir.
Humphrey, rector of Alveton, d. at
Paris, 1285. Nicholas, who had the manor of Clu-
more, in Ireland, d. s.p. Theobald de Veedon, ancestor of the
Veedons, Lords of Darlaston and Biddulph, CO. Stafford. Maud, m. to John Eitz-Alan, Earl of Arundel.
Roesia was s. by her eldest son,
John de Veedon (alias Le Botiller). This great feudal lord, being one of the barons marchers, had orders, in the 44th HenetIII, on the incursions of the Welsh, to keep his residence upon the borders. After which he was one of the barons who adhered to the king, in the conflict between the crown and the nobles ; and upon the triumph of the royal cause at Evesham, he was commissioned to raise forces in Worcestershire, for the purpose of attacking the only remaining hold of the barons, at Kenilworth. But these troubles being at length ended, John de Verdon was signed with the cross, and accompanied Prince Edward to the Holy Land. John de Verdon m. first, Margerie, daughter of Gilbert de Lacie, and co-heir to her grandfather, Walter de Lacie, Lord Palatine of Meath, in Ireland, by which alliance the castle of Weobley, co. Hereford, came into the Verdon family ; and secondly, Alianore, whose surname is unknown. At his death, being slain in Ireland, 1278, he left issue,
I. Nicholas (Sir), of Ewyas Lacie, d. v.p. and s.p., 1271.
II. John, Lord of Weobley, d. s.p., circa 1295.
III. Theobald, of whom presently.
IV. Thomas, of Staffordshire ; returned as a man-at-arms, l7th Edwabd II ; ancestor, it is believed, of Sir Thomas de Verdon, Knt., of Denston, co. Staf- ford, and of his brother. Sir John de Verdon, sheriff of Staffordshire, 34th Edwaed III, who d. s.p., leaving his sister, Joan, wife of John de Whit- more, Lord of Whitmore, his heir. This Joan left two daughters and co-heirs, viz., Joan, in. to Henry Clerk, of Ruyton, co. Salop; and Elizabeth, m. to James de Boghay, Lord of Whit- more. (See Burke's Landed Oentri/, MAiNWAEiNe of Whitmoee.)
I. Agnes, d. 1305.
The third son,
Theobald de Veedon, lord of the moiety of Meath, in Ireland, had, in the 3rd Edwaed I, on doing homage, livery of his lands, paying 100?. for his relief. At this period he held the otfioe of Constable of Ireland. For some years subsequently this eminent person seems to have enjoyed the favour of the crown, and to have received several immunities ; but in the 19th of Edwaed's reign we find him arraigned for treason, and divers other misdemeanours, before the king and covmcil, at Bergavenny, ana condemned to imprisonment and con- fiscation ; the king, however, taking into con- sideration the good services of his ancestors, and his own submission, freed him for a fine of 500 marks; and he \\as soon after sum-

In the 29tli of the same reign (Edward 1), his lordship was one of the barons in the parliament of Lincoln, who, by a public in- strument, under their seals, sent to Pope Boniface VIII, asserted the right of King Edward, as superior lord of the whole realm of Scotland. Lord Verdon having had sum- mons to parliament to 3rd November, 1306, d. in 1309. By Margery, or Elenor, his wife, he had issue,

This nobleman, in the 6th Edward II, was constituted justice of Ireland, having likewise the lieutenancy of that realm, and the fee of 500^. per annum, then granted to him.

This family is of Scottish origin. About the middle of the 17th century several members of the family settled in London- derry, Ireland, where they remained till about the middle of the 18th century.

Referring to the same estate of East Brent, there are several deeds in the succeeding reigns, and a marriage settlement of the time of Chaeles II, in -which East Brent, Shipliam, and Kewbay are mentioned as family property.

This is supposed to be a cadet line of the family of the chief of Mackinnon.
The Mackinnons descend from Fingon, youngest son of Alpin, King of Scotland ; the name Macfingon became subsequently Macfinden, and then Mackinnon.
Little can be accurately leai-ned as to the early history of the Mackinnons ; but there is one event of importance which is recorded by clear testimony. On the decease of John of the Isles, in the fourteenth century, Mac- kinnon excited his second son, John Mor, to rebel against his eldest brother, and his fac- tion was joined by the Macleans and the Macleods. But Donald, the elder brother, was supported by so large a majority of the tribe, that he drove John Mor and his party out of the Isles, and pursued them to Ire- land. Eventually, John Mur appealed to his brother's mercy, and was pardoned ; but Mackinnon, as the instigator of the rebellion, was seized and put to death.
On the forfeiture of the last Lord of the Isles, and in the disturbances which con- tinued during the following century, the name of Sir Lauchlan Mackinnon occurs very frequently, and he appears to have been a man of consideration.

BLAXLAND, EDWARD TREMATNE, Esq. of Fordwich, Broke, via Whittingham, New South Wales, Australia, acting manager of branch of Commercial Bank, h. July, 1864 ; to. at St. Andrew's, Lismore, New South Wales, 1st December, 1890, Mary Jane, eldest daughter of the late John Sheehan, Esq. of Nowra, New South Wales, and stepdaughter of the late Thomas Hood, Esq. of South Woodburn, New South Wales.
Ht'neaae.
The Blaxlands are of great antiquity, and were in possession of the Isle of Thanet be- fore the Norman Conquest. It was taken from them by William the Conqueror, and divided among several of the families of his followers. In one or more of the oldest churches in the Isle of Thanet, such as Minster Church, may be seen down the aisles, numerous marble slabs, with inscriptions and effigies of the Blaxlands. There are three manors in Kent which still retain the name of Blaxland.
John Blaxland or de Blockisland, of Blaxland Towers, the ancestor of this family, is mentioned in the oldest chronicles, as far back as when St. Augustine came to England. He was present at the christening of King Ethelbert and Queen Beetha, the first Christian king and queen of England, on Whit-Sunday, 2nd June, 597, and in their presence presented St. Augustine with a grant of land for the future abbey of St. Augustine, the first missionary home in Britain. Part of the ruins of the abbey still remain, and on the site stands the present Abbey of St.
Augustine. With King Richaed I at the Crusades the name of Reginald de Block- island is among those who received honours and rewards from the king. One John Blaxland was captain of the guard of Queen Elizabeth. He m. Elizabeth, daugh- ter of John Lowen, the poet, who was with Beaumont and Fletcher (of the intellectual coterie of Shakspeare) at the celebrated White Hart.
In 1730 the coat of arms was granted to John Blaxland, of the parish of St. An- drew's, Holborn, co. Middlesex, who was the son of John Blaxland, of Luddenham Court, CO. Kent, and grandson of John Blaxland, of Allen Court, in the parish of Minster, in the Isle of Thanet, co. Kent, by Frances, his wife, one of the daughters and co-heirs of Geoffry Sandwell, of Monckton, in tlie Isle of Thanet, a descendant of John de Sandale, who was admitted canon of York, 6th May, 1314, chancellor of England, 1315, and elected bishop of Winchester, August, 1316, continuing in that see till his death, at his seat in Southwark, 2nd November, 1319,

and buried in tlie church of St. Mary Overy. One John Blaxland, supposed to be a descendant of Jobn Blaxland, of Holborn, m. the daughter of John Oxley Parker (of the family of Matthew Parker, archbishop of Canterbury in the time of Queen Elizabeth), and had four sons,

IV. Gregory, of Brush Farm, Parramatta River, New South Wales, b. in co. Kent, 1771, was sent to New South Wales, by his eldest brother John, in 1804, and settled on an estate called the' JBrush, not far from the banks of the Parramatta Rirer. In 1813, he, together with W. C. Wentworth and Lieutenant Lawson, discovered tbe famous pass in the Blue Mountains, a task which had several times pre- viously been unsuccessfully attempted, and which heroic work nearly cost them their lives. Through this act the colony of New South Wales was opened out to the extent that it now is, and abundance of pasture for the flocks and herds discovered at a time vrhen it was about to be abandoned on account of the prevailing drought. All three were rewarded with grants of land. It was Gregory Blaxland who planted the first vineyard in the colony with vines from the Cape, and he made the first wine, for which he gained the first gold medal, and the silver medal. He also first brought the buffalo grass from the Cape, which has since proved so beneficial. Gregory Blaxland m., in 1798, in England, Eliza, daughter of John Spurdon, Esq., and d. 3rd January, 1853, having had issue,
1. John, m. Ellen Falconer, daugh- ter of a banker in England, and had issue, six sons and one daugh- ter.
2. George, to. Mary Rees, niece of Governor Darling, of New South Wales, and had issue, two sons and two daughters.

4. Charles, of Cleves, Parramatta River, New South Wales, m.

5. Gregory.
1. Elizabeth, eldest child, to. Dr. Forster, surgeon of the 50th (Queen's Own) Regiment. They lived at the Brush Farm, near the banks of the Parramatta
River, and had issue, two sons and four daughters. The elder son, William, was the second agent- general for New South Wales, and was a most valuable member of Parliament. The eldest child, Elizabeth, to. at Hunters Hill, New South Wales, 17th October, 1839, her cousin, Arthur Blax- land, Esq. of Fordwich, Broke, via Whittingham, New South Wales, who d. at Fordwich, where she now resides. She has had issue, four sons and four daugh- ters. 2. Jane, m. Captain Hayes, and had issue, three sons. The eldest son.
The Hon. John Blaxland, formerly of Newington Hall, co. Kent, England, and afterwards of Newington, Parramatta River, New South Wales, was b. at Fordwich, co. Kent, 4th January, 1769, and was educated at King's School, Canterbury. On the death of his father he took up his residence at the Hall, Newington, co. Kent, formerly a rectory, to which was attached the great tithes of St. Nicholas. He also possessed Hartlip, and a valuable part of the Romney Marshes. John Blaxland was a captain in the Duke of York's Cavalry. Having previously, in 1804, freighted a ship with every necessity, and sent his youngest brother, Gregory, to New South Wales, he built another ship, which he called " The Brothers," and in which he left England with his wife and family and farm servants, under a convoy of a hundred sail, in July, 1806, and, after a nine months' voyage, arrived in Port Jack- son, Sydney, April, 1807. On his arrival, the severe treatment with which he met at the hands of Governor Bligh caused him to return to England, and on representing to the Government the measures which had been directed against him, he was to a certain ex- tent compensated. In 1808 he took part in the deposition of Governor Bligh. He sat in the Legislative Council from 1824 to 1844. John Blaxland to. first, in Kent, 1790, Miss Davies, who d. after the birth of her in- fant, which did not survive. He to. secondly, in 1797, Harriott, only daughter of John Ijouis de Marquet, of Calcutta, formerly an officer in the Garde du Corps of Loiris XVI, by Elizabeth Carter, his wife, adopted child of Colonel White. By this marriage he had,
I. John de Marquet, b. in Kent, dis- covered the Bulga Pass in the Blue Mountains, as also large tracts of valuable land for pasturage. He d.unm.
II. George, a merchant captain, trading between China and India, was b. in Kent. His log-book and charts are considered most valuable. He m. Maria, third daughter of Sir James Dowling, chief justice of New South Wales (see Dowling of Sydney), by his first marriage. She d. in child- birth.

iLineage.
The first of this family who came to Ire- land, or at least to the south of that kingdom, were two brothers, who settled there in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, the elder of whom was ranger of one of the royal parts, and 7)1. to the daughter of Herbert of Powis, a house ennobled under that title, and illus- trious under those of Pembroke, Montgomery, and Cherburg (see Burke's Extinct Peerage). From this alliance the Christian name of Herbert has been transmitted to the famUy, whicli has also continued to quarter the arms of Herbert with those of Baldwin. These
two brothers purchased property, and fixed their residence in the vicinity of Bandon, in the CO. of Cork, the elder at Mossgrove, the younger at Lisnagart. Tl'.e father of Captain William Baldwin, Heney Baldwin, Esq. of Lissard, near Bandon, co. Cork, Ireland, J. P., m. Helena Williamson.

Ht'neage.
The Scottish family of Stenhouse ie held to be identical with that of Stonhouse, of Radley, in Kent, and with that of Staunus, of Carlingford and Portarlington, in Ireland. The Stenhouses, of Comley Park, near Dun- fermline, Scotland, descend directly from Stanehouse, of Carbolzie, in Scotland (see Burke's Landed Oentry, Stannus OF Cae- lingfoed).
In the American War of Independence, at least two scions of the stock suffered in the Royal cause — the one being Thomas Stannus, then M.P. for Portarlington, who was severely wounded while serving with the 22nd Regi- ment, and the other, Alexander Stenhouse, Esq., M.D., whose American estates were confiscated by the Republic at the close of the war. This Dr. Alexander Stenhouse was cousin-german to the present Mr. A. M. Stenhouse's grandfather. The British govern- ment rewarded his fidelity with a life pension. The deceased members of the Comley Park Stenhouses, are all, with one or two excep- tions, interred under the walls of the Old Abbey Church of Dunfermline, within a few feet of the tomb of King Robert Beuce, whose remains lie under the floor of the church.
William Stanehottse, Esq. of Carbolzie, m. and had, amongst other issue, a younger son,
Thomas Stanehouse, Esq., who had a son,
Alexandeb Stanehouse, Esq., who wa8 father of
James Stenhouse, Esq. of Fod and G-len- quhey. His eldest son was father of the above-mentioned Dr. Alexander Stenhouse, whose American estates were confiscated by the Republic at the close of the war. His younger son,
William Stenhouse, Esq., M.D,, was father of
James Stenhouse, Esq. of Comley Park (or, as it is now spelt. Comely Park), near Dunfermline, Scotland, M.D. (wliich estate he purchased about the middle of last cen- tury) ; m. and had twelve children, two of whom (a son and a daughter) d. in infancy, the others are as follow, viz. : —
I. William, M.D. of the University of Edinburgh, R.N., s. his father in the Comley Park Estate. He served 20 years in the Royal Navy, and dis- tinguished himself on board H.M.S. " Revenge," at the Battle of Trafalgar. Tie d. unm.

This family of Wright came from the county of Chester, England.
Mr. S. E. L. Wright is a lineal descendant of John Evelyn, Esq. of Wotton, co. Surrey, author of Sylva, Diary, &c., &c., and great great grandson of the gallant Captain FoETUNATUs WEIGHT, E.N., some of whose heroic deeds are related in Kingston's Popu- lar History of the British Navy, in Hume and Smollett's Historg of England, in a small volume by J. N. Langton, and in Eraser's Magazine for October, 1881. Cap- tain Wright's daughter Philippa m. Chaeles Evelyn, Esq., and their son, Sir Hugh Evelyn, who d. in 1848, was the last baronet in that family. Sir Hugh's sister, Susanna Peideaux, m. at St. James's Church, West- minster, CO. Middlesex, 21st February, 1878, John Elwoethy FoETtrNATUS Weight, lieutenant E.N., and had issue, four daugh- ters and two sons, one of whom,
John Faithful Foetescue Weight, lieutenant R.M., was h. 31st July, 1786 ; m. 3rd February, ] 822, Louisa Felicia (who was I. 27th October, 1799, and d. 1st February, 1875), daughter of John Liardet, Esq., a major in the army (who d. of fever while serving at Gibraltar), by Perpetue Catherine de Paul de Lamanon d'Albe, his wife (daugh- ter of the Due de Lamanon d'Albe, whose estates, at the time of the Revolution in France, were at Provance, and whose pedigree could be traced from the foundation of Rome. The name in Italian and Spanish is Alva, and Albe in French, as it now stands) ; and brother of Captain Francis Liardet, R.N., who was 6. at Chelsea, co. Middlesex, 14th June, 1798. Lieutenant Wright entered the Navy 14th June, 1809 ; in the following year joined the " Belvidera," and on the occasion of that vessel's celebrated escape from a powerful squadron under Commodore Kod- gers, in North American waters, was slightly wounded, he being then midshipman. After serving in several other vessels, and seeing much active service, we find Mr. Liardet evincing a conspicuous degree of bravery, skill, and perseverance in the suppression of piracy, and in the performance of those duties received two severe gun-shot wounds, long before his recovery from which, he re- sumed the active duties of his profession. As a reward for these services, he was pro-
moted to the rank of lieutenant 18th March, 1824, and appointed to the command of the schooner " Lion," in which vessel he suc- ceeded in destroying several piratical esta- blishments on the coast of Cuba, capturing nine piratical vessels. He attained the rank of commander 28th June, 1838, and was appointed to the second-captaincy of the "Powerful" 84, Captain afterwards Sir Charles Napier, in which vessel he assisted, during the war in Syria, in the bombard- ment of St. Jean d'Acre, for which services he was promoted to post-rank 4th November, 1840, and the following year retired on half- pay. On several occasions this officer dis- tinguished himself by saving life at sea, and his bravery was rewarded by medallions from the Royal Humane Society, besides which he has received several war decorations. He was one of the captains of Greenwich Hos- pital when he died, and that institution re- spected his meniory by placing a marble bust of him in the " Painted Hall." His brother, William Liardet, was a lieutenant R.N., h. 29th September, 1794 ; entered the Navy 22nd November, 1806 ; and in the following year, on board the "Redwing," took part in a very spirited action with a division of Spanish gun-boats and several batteries near Cabritta Point, and a little later he was taken prisoner. He rejoined the " Redwing " in 1813, and had charge of a cutter which assisted in cutting out a well-protected con- voy at Morjean. The same year he served in a brilliant attack on the batteries at Cassis, where the British succeeded in capturing two heavy gun-boats and 26 vessels laden with merchandise, two of which were brought out by Mr. Liardet himself. He proved instrumental to the capture of a large number of merchantmen and privateers during the whole term of his attachment to the " Redwing," and was engaged in nearly every boat and battery affair in which that vessel was concerned. Including the occa- sion above alluded to, he was twice taken prisoner by the enemy, although in both instances he was speedily released. After serving in several other ships, lastly, as first-lieutenant on board the " Perseus," he was placed in charge of a station in the Coast Guard, 29th September, 1846.

EoBEET Wood, Esq. (the grandfather of Mr. W. D. Wooa), who, in early life resided in London, is supposed to have been a descendant of Bishop Nicolas Ridley, one of the English reformers and martyrs of the 16th century ; in evidence of which is the fact that a member of the Bishop's family left him, many years ago, a legacy, and the pre- sent Mr.W.

About ten miles due west from Aberdeen is the Loch of Skene, a considerable sheet of water, and on the north side of it extends
the ancient barony of Skene, co-extensive with the more modern parish of the same name. It is bounded on the north by the
BURKE'S COLONIAL GENTRY.
313
parishes of Kinellar and Kintore, on the west by the parishes of Kinnernie, now annexed to Clunie and Echt, and on the east by the freedom lands of Aberdeen. The barony consisted of two distinct portions. On the western or larger portion was situated the old tower of Skene, said by tradition to be the first built stone house in Mar. It now forms the west wing of the house of Skene. On Easter Skene was the Church of Skene, now a parish church, but formerly a vicarage dependent upon the mother church of Kin- tell. These lands were erected into a barony by King Robeet Beuce in the year 1317, and have from time immemorial been in the possession of the baronial family of Skene of Skene.
The traditionary origin of the family is thus given by Mr. Alexander Skene, in 1678 : " Ane old tradition there is that the tribe and family of Skene had their origin from Struan Robertson of Athole, and they from M'Donald, and that our first author was a son of the Laird of Struans, and had his first donation immediately from tlie king, for killing ane devouring wolf in the forest near the freedom land of Aberdeen, for which he got the confirmation of East and Wester Skene to the freedom of Aberdeen, and that with ane coat of arms helmed and flurished relating to the valorous act, viz., three wolfs' heads erazed upon the points of three skeens, triumphant in a field of gules ; above the helmet ane naked hand holding a laurel branch with this motto, ' Virtutis Regia merces,' which arms are registered in the booke of Heraldry. Under the reign of what king that happened I am not cer- tainly informed, but sure I am that there was lately in the charter chest of the House of Skene a restauratioufrom a forfauture granted by K. W. the Lion. This is now amissing."
Sir Greorge Mackenzie, in his Science of Heraldry, published two years after, in 1680, gives the same account. He says: — " Some also derive their names, as well as their arms, from some considerable action, and thus a second son of Struan Robertson, for killing of a wolf in Stocket Foi-rest by a durk in the king's presence, got the name of Skene, which signifies a durk in Irish, and three durk points in pale for his armes." Another manuscript, written not very long after, gives the king's name as " Malcolm Kenmore." But the first appearance of the name of Skene in any authentic document is in 1296, when " Johan de Skene del Counte de Edneburgh," and Johan de Skene, Patrick de Skene del Counte de Aberdene, did homage to King Edward the First (Calendar of Documents relating to Scotland, pp. 203- 208). The seals attached to these homages are preserved, and show that Johan de Skene del Counte de Edneburgh, and del Counte de Aberdene, was the same person.
On the death of the last Laird of Skene, in 1827, the succession to his estates fell, under the deed of entail executed by his great grand uncle, Major George Skene, of Caraldstone, and by his elder brothei-, George
Skene of Skene, to his nephew James, Earl Fife, while the male representation of the family devolved upon the Skenes of Hal- yards, in Fife. James, 5th Earl Fife, who succeeded his uncle (-Itli Earl) in 1857, was in the same year created a British Peer, by the title of Baron Skene of Skene.
James Skene, in Bandodle, afterwards of Wester Corse and Ramore, second son of Alexander IX., of Skene, by " Lord Forbes' daughter," was the first of the sons of the family who bore the designation of " in Ban- dodle," the Tanistry lands having been acquired by his father. Prior to the 16th century there was little outlet for the sons of such lamilies except to enter the Church, or to have their names inscribed on the rental roll as kindlie tenants of some outlying farm (hence the term Tanistry), which their de- scendants, if the laird was embarrassed, acquired in property, or they descended to the condition of ordinary farmers. In 1538, James Skene in Bandodle appears as uncle and curator to Alexander Skene of that ilk, and in 1543 he is infeft in the sunny third of the lands of Blackball, He m. Janet Lumsden, daughter of Lumsden of Cushney, and by her had ten sons, viz.,

(" Mr." was a designation confined at that time exclusively to Masters of Arts.) James Skene in Bandodle led his nephew's retainers to the battle of Pinkie, and was slain there in 1547. His 4th son,
Robert Skene, of Belhelvie, was, on lat October, 1571, admitted as a burgess of Aberdeen. In 1572 he appears amongst the absentees in the burgess roll, his reason being tliat he had now settled in Belhelvie. Through the centre of the barony of Bel- helvie a stream flows through a ravine past the present Belhelvie Lodge. It rises in the farm of Craigies, and passes through Whytecairns, Overhill, Old Overtown, Upper Potterton, Mylne of Potterton, and Mylne- den, where it falls into the sea, and south of Mylneden along the shore were the farms of Fife and Blackdog. These farms, with the exception of Craigies, were the possessions of the Skenes in Belhelvie. The Mylne of Potterton, with Overhill and Old Overtown, was then known as the Overmylne, and Mylneden as the Nether Mylne. Robert Skene possessed the former. He was twice married. By his 1st wife, a daughter of David Adie, merchant, burgess of Aberdeen, by Isobel Forbes, his wife, he had issue,

* Thomas Skene of Blackdog succeeded Bailie Skene of the Auldtown, who was his second cousin, and got a Bible, known as tlie " Dyce Bible," from him. This Bible, now in the possession of Thomas Skene, of Marnoo, Victoria, was printed in 1599, and contains records of the Dyce branch of the family dating as far back as 1630. William Forbes Skene, Esq., LL.D., D.C.L., of Rubislaw, Her Majesty's historiographer for Scotland, <&c., erroneously attributes the MS. in this Bible to Jon Skene, laird of Dyce 1704-1729, and liis mother, Anna Johnston of Kaskiben, whereas it was written by Patrick Skene, sixth son of Alexander Skene, laird of Dyce 1665-1704, and brother to the Jon Skene before men- tioned, a portion of it being a " Copey of Liens," written by the said Jon Skene and the said Anna Johnston. It was Patrick, b. 1674, and not Jon, who went to Lublin, in Poland, in 1690, and who recorded his mar- riage, and various other particulars of his life there, in the Bible.

Not only tradition, but documentary and other evidence, leads to the conclusion that John Bridge (the ancestor of the Bridge family in America, settled there since 1632)
was descended from the same stock as the family of which we treat, and near of kin to William Bridge, the celebrated Pui-itan di- vine of Norwich, and a prominent member

of the Westminster Assembly. John Bridge being a fellow-townsman of Jolm Havwood, and, like him, interested in the intellectual, moral, and religious welfare of the infant colony, it is probable that he took some part in the foundation of what has now become the celebrated Harvard University at Cam- bridge, Mass. The late General Garfield, president of the United States, is included in the genealogy of this family, members of the same having held divers important posts under the United States Government.

It is recorded that the family of Legge came originally from Venice, wlaere it was noble and wealthy, in the 10th century, the name then being De la Lega.
The branch from which the present family
is descended settled at Legges, near Tun- bridge, CO. Xent, England, about the 12th century.
A member of the family, Thomas Legge. served the office of sheriff for the city

London in 1343, and was lord mayor in the years 1346 and 1353. In 1338, this opulent citizen lent Edwaed III £300 towards carrying on the war with Fr/ince, which was a very cousideruble sum in those days, and more than any other citizen ailvanced, except the lord mayor and Simon de Frauncis, who each lent £800 in the ensuing year. Alder- man Legge is staled to have m. Lady Eliza- beth Beauchamp, daughter of Thomas, Earl of Warwick; he had two sons, Simon, his heir, and John, knight of the shire for Surri-y, 1 379, beheaded by Wat Tyler's rebels. From Simon, the elder son, descended
William Legge, who wc nt to Ireland in the 15th century, and settled in co. Tipperary, where this branch rf the family continued to reside until the family estates were broken up and sold by Mr. R. V. Legge's father in the beginning of tlie present century. During the last century the family se:its in co. Tip- perary were Grarrane and Ballinderry, and also a large estate in England, called Pinner, which was, however, bequeathed to the second Earl of Dartmouth by Mr. R. V. Legge's great grand-uncle. Major Francis Legge, governor of Nora Scotia. William Legge m. Anne, only daughter of John, son of Miles, Lord Bermingham. He d. at the advanced age of 90, and was *. by his son,
Edwaed Legge, vice-president of Munster during the lieutenancy of his kinsman, Sir Charles Blount, Lorcl Mountjoy, the com- panion of Walter Raleiph. This gentleman m. Mary, daughter of Percy Walsh, Esq. of Moyvalley, and had six sons and seven daughters. From one of these sons the pre- sent Mr. R. V. Legge is supposed to be descended. The eldest son, Colonel William Legge, was brought out of Ii-eland by his godfather, Henry Danvers, Earl of Dauby, and sent by him to serve as a volunteer under G-u.stavus Adolphus of Sweden ; and he fought afterwards under Prince Maurice of Orange, in the Low Countries. On his return to England, he was first constituted keeper of the king's wardrobe, during life ; and made, soon after, groom of the bedchamber. Colonel Legge, during the Civil Wars, became emi- nently distinguished by his faithful attach- ment to Chaeles I, and his persevering exertions in the royal cause, before and after the death of the king. At the battle of Worcester he was wounded and taken prisoner,
and would have been executed, if his wife had not contrifed his escape from Coventry gaol in her own clothes. lie was high in favour after the Restoration, and enjoyed several lucrative and honourable ollices, amongst them the governorship of Oxford. From him is descended the Earl of Dartmouth (see Burke's Feerafji).

Hineage.
Tbe family of Acland is one of great an- tiquity. The pedigree recorded in the Visit- ation of Devon, A.D. 1620, commences with Baldwin Eccelin, whose sou, Baldwin AcALEN, of Acalen, in the parish of Land Key, Devon, was living temp. Hknet III, hut the antiquity of the family is also shown by a deed in Pole's MS. Deeds and Charters, in which mention is made of Hugh de Acalen, temp. Heney II. The visitation pedigree carries down the family link by link to Hugh Acland, of Acland, living at the time the visitation was made. He was eldest son of John Akeland, of Akeland, by Mar- garet, his wife, daughter and co-heiress of Hugh RadclifEe, of Stepney, and elder brother of Sir John Aclaud, tnt. of Columb John, high sheriir of Devon in 1608. The afore- said

Sir Arthur Acland, of Acland and
Columb John, knighted 1606. He m. Eleanor, daughter and heiress of Robert Malet, Esq. of Wooleigh, co. Devon, and by her (who became the second wife of Sir Francis Vin- cent, Bart.) he had issue, John, his heir; Elizabeth, m. to Anthony Vincent, Esq. of Stoke d'Abernon; and Anne, d. unm. Sir Arthur d. 1614, and was s. by his son,
I. John Acland, Esq., was created a baronet, 1st March, 1614 — 5 ; but the letters patent having been destroyed during the civil wars, new ones were granted in 1677, with a special clause of precedence from the date of the first letters.

Mr. Thomson arrived in the colony of New Zealand, as early as 1856, from the Straits Settlements, where he had spent some eighteen years, and where he had been for a long period chief surveyor. He also acted there as a civil engineer, and in that capacity constructed the Horsburgh Lighthouse, which gained him a high reputation. This lighthouse, which was begun in May, 1850, and completed in July, 1851, is erected on the rock of Pedra Branca, in the China seas. On account of the Indian climate proving unsuitable to him, Mr. Thomson removed to New Zealand, where he landed in Auckland, and, proceeding south, arrived at Otago, of which province he accepted the post of chief surveyor, and his labours in that capacity led, in no small degree, to the opening up of the province — first to the squatter, and afterwards to the agriculturist. He held, for many years, the joint offices of chief surveyor, chief commissioner of Crown lands, and provincial engineer of Otago, in which last capacity he directed the work of the removal of Bell's Hill, Dunedin. He was appointed surveyor-general of the colony of New Zealand, in May, 1876, from which office he retired in 1879, when he settled in Southland, and on one of his properties, near Invercargill, built the mansion of Lennel. He was for a time mayor of Gladstone, after his retirement from the surveyor-general- ship, and, in 1881, unsuccessfully contested the representation of ilitaura in parliament. He was president of the Southland Institute, since its institution, the author of several books, and the translator of Hakarit AhduUa from the

Hfncaue.
Mr. H. J". Washbourn probably belongs to the younger oranch of the Washbournes of Washbourne, the eLler branch of which is represented by the Money-Kyrles of Homme House, Much Marcle, co. Hereford (see Burke's Landed Oentri/). The tradition is that during the Civil Wars the family sacri- ficed all " save honour " in the Stuarts' cause. Nash observes of Little Washbourne, anciently Wasseborne — " It is sometimes called Knight's Washbourne, from the
knightly character of the family who take their surname from thence." 'This village and that of Grreat Washboiu'ne were once their properly. Thomas Washbourne, D.D., who was incumbent of the church of St. Mary-de-Lode, Q-loucester, was a member of the same family. He published a volume of poems, still extant, and on the occasion of the Restoration preached a sermon in rhe cathedral at Glovicester to commemorate the event.

Hintagc,
Crawford, in bis History of Renfrewshire, gays, " This very ancient family is descended from the Macduifs, Thanes, or Earls of Fife (rendered illustrious by tradition as having slain Macbeth, and restored the rightful sovereign to the throne of Scotland) ; one of ■whom, having had a son named Ralph, vfho obtained a grant of lands in Renfrewshire, he called them after himself (as was common in those days), Ralphstoune, and this, softened down in time to Ralston, became the family name." He refers to charters, &c., wherein the family are named as early as 1272 and 1346.
Robertson, in his History of Ayrshire, says : — The iirst of them, however, I shall begin with, is,
John db Ealstoune, who flourished in the reign of James the SECOifD of Scotland, and who rose to the highest honours of the church and state. In 1444, he was made lord keeper of the privy seal; in 1448, lord bishop of Dunkeld; and in 1449, lord high treasurer. He was sent the same year ambassador to the English court ; and again in 1452 (see Keith's Catalogue of Scottish Bishops), where he calls him the representa- tive of a most ancient family of the same designation in the shire of Renfrew. From this John de Ralstoune descended, according to tradition,
Matthew Ralston, Esq , of Hampden,
Deddiugton, Tasmania, h. in co.

Htntacte.
The nobility of the Holy Koman Empire ■was conferred on the ancient and distin- guished family of Stieglitz by patent from Joseph II, Emperor of Germany and Austria, bearing date, at Vienna, 15th De- cember, 1765. The family, connected in ancient times with the civil and military service of Saxony, was originally from Bo- hemia, where, among the archives of the city of Pilsen, it is recorded that, during many centuries, several members were raised to the first dignities of the State, and one especially, named Bartholomaeus, was, by His Imperial Majesty Kudolph II, favoured with par- ticular consideration.
A tradition reports that this Bartholomaeus was granted hereditary nobility in 1583 by the Emperor Eudolph II as Barthol. Stieg- litz von Czenkow (a place not far from Pilsen), and that his descendants, being per- secuted on account of their following the doctrine of Lutlier, had to leave their estates, and to proceed to Saxony without title or wealth.
In the 13th and 1-tth centuries lived a family of Stieglitz (also spelt Stiglitz, Steg- litz) on their estates in Pommerland and Brandenburgh, the traces of which disappear in the 14th century, just at the time wlien we read for the first time of a family of the same name resident in and near Pilsen.
The two members of the family on whom
hereditary titles were conferred by the Emperor Joseph II, 15th December, 1765, were Cheistiax Lfdwig (i.e., Lewis), mem- ber of the High Court of Justice at Leipzig, and "Wilhelm (i.e., William) Ludwig, colonel of a regiment in the service of the Elector of Saxony ; the former being the ancestor of the Irish-Australian branch of the family, and the latter of the German branch, which is still existing in Germany, the members of which have been mostly in the royal Saxon civU or military service, one having been a general in the Prussian-Austrian War in 1866. The mother of the celebrated Austrian Eield-Marshal Baron Gablenz was also a member of this branch.
Christian Ludwig, Baeon von Stieg- litz, the above mentioned, m. C. F. Eichter, and had issue, five sons, viz.,
I. Christian Ludwig, b. 1756 ; m. A. L. Eeinhard ; and d. in 1836. His de- scendants are now living in Saxony and Germany.

The family of Currie was seated at Dunse, Berwickshire, Scotland, from 1570 to 1765, and this family claims descent from a cadet of Currie of that ilk, Annandale. The elder line merged in the Johnstons of Annandale by the marriage of its heiress in 1550.
Sir Walter de Currie swore allegiance to Edwaed 1, 129G. Adam de Currie assisted Wallace Sanquhar. Piers de Currie, cele- brated in Si ottish ballad and in ancient Norse chronicles for bis heroic achievements and
death fighting against Haco at the battle of Largs in 1263.

In 1425, the head of the family, John de Pbeisson, was burgess of Linlithgow, and servitor* {generosus) to the king, James I, of Scotland. A payment out of the customs of Linlithgow is ordered to him " by the king's ring, to the auditors." In 1450, his eldest son, Thomas, held lands at Blackness, Eister Liff, Forfarshire, at whose death, in 1466, sasine of these lands (which now form part of the west-end of Dundee) was granted to his two daughters, Mariota and Sybilla Persoun.
Henry, brother of John de Perisson, was bailie of Linlithgow, 1434. His son, Thomas Peresone, was one of the clerks of the Chapel Royal, Edinburgh, 1467. John Person was procurator for the Abbot of Culross in 1489 in all places ]5crtaining to that Abbey, in the burgh of Dunfermline, and Sir Andro Pierson was one of the monks of the Abbey of Dun- fermline at that date (see Eoss's Old Dun- fermline).
In 1506, the nephew of Thomas Peirson, of Blackness, servitor {armiger) to George (Hepburn) ,t " Abbas de Arbroath," had a charter of " ly Rude with pertinents in ly Almory de Arbroath." The chartulary of the abbey contains several charters, granting lands to Thomas Peirson and his successors. A grant was made, 1st June, 1506, to Thomas PlEESON, " et Mariote, Sponse sue Moderne " (present or second wife), " dimidiam tercie partis ville nostre de Soutbterre." Thomas Peirson married, as his second wife, his cousin, Mariota, daughter and co-)ieiress (with her sister, Sybilla) of Thomas of Black- ness. Thomas and Mariota Persoun, on the 13th October, 1508, obtained a grant of lands of Kepty (now part of Arbroath, on which the railway station is placed), Arbroath, which, with the other grants, formed the nucleus of the future property of Lochlands.

The arms of Pearson and Drummond are inlaid together within a border on an oak slab fixed to one of the stalls of Dunblane Cathedral. These stalls are of black oak, most elaborately carved. They are the only vestiges of ancient eccle- siastical furniture existing in any place of Presbyterian worship in Scotland.

28 years of age, William Pearson parted with Kippenross to the adjoining proprietor, John Stirling of Kippendavie, and the con- joined property is now known as Kippen- davie. The legal arrangements of transfer were completed 9th February, 1781, when " John Stii'ling of Kippendavie was seized in the barony of Kippenross under life-rent superiority of William Pearson of Kippenross, of parts of the said barony." The boundaries of the barony were Allan Water on the south, Sheriffmuir on the north, Dunblane "village on the west, and the Brook of Old Wherry on the east. Dean Pearson's house of Kijipen- ross, or Kippencrosse (said to have been so named after one of the four crosses of St, Blane, anciently known as Kippen Cross, White Cross, Anchor's Cross, and Cross Capley) , was burnt down in William Pearson's time.

" Tlie most complete and monumental of Peerages is the well-known compilation of Sir Bernard Burke, C.B., Ulster King of Arms. . . . But Burke's Peerage is quite above criticism ; it is unique, and remains by itself as the type of a book of reference." — Times.
"... All students of English History must feel interested in the work. To such students, iu fact, 'Burke' is an indispensable biographical dictionary, and one which needs no recom- mendation. . . ." — Times.
"The reader who takes up 'Burke' does rowith the full consciousness that every statement, every detail, however small, has been subjected to the closest scrutiny and most stringent revision." — Morning Post.
' ' The present edition is marked by the accurate editorship that has justly entitled it to be con- sidered a complete genealogical and heraldic dictionary." — The Daily Telegraph.
" It is scarcely necessary to add that the present edition of Burke's Peerage is distinguished by the completeness and accuracy that have hitherto constituted what is one of the most entertaining and suggestive books in the world, a voliune of reference that everybody may consult with confidence." — Saturday Review.
"This work supplies, with admirable minuteness and perfect correctness, the information so eagerly sought for." — Illustrated London News.
" Without denying the merit of other peerages, this is par exceUenee the book for those who desire to know, not only about living persons, but about their ancestors." — The Graphic.
" Sir Bernard can put forward the hope, scarcely distinguishable from a claim, that his present
volume is ' in all respects complete.' " — Notes and Queries, "Sir Bernard Burke's handsome volume easily maintains its position as the most comprehensive,
the most complete, and most reliable of all the Peerages." — Vanity Fair.
' The success of Sir Bernard Burke iu bringing his great work through so many editions must be regarded as a marvellous achievement, worthy of his learning and literary reputation. It is not a dry record of dates and names, or a collection of heraldic symbols, but the cultured taste of the author has made it attractive by historical illustrations and notes of many inci- dents in the career of great families, which have the charm of romance." — Dublin Daily Ei-press.

some well-executed photos of the large game As a sportsman and a word-painter
he is inimitable, and his work should be largely patronized." — European Mail. \* " This is an attractive volume ....

59, Pdll Mall, London, S.W. 13
of its .344 pages, we have not come across a single error. The volume contains nothing we would dispense with, and nothing occurs to ua as being omitted. It thoroughly justifies its title as the Service Almanaclc. — Broad Arrow.
" A more useful manual it would be difficult to find."— United Service Magazine.
"Rivals 'Whitaker' in the completeness with which it deals with its subject. There appears to be no item of Service information which is not to be found in its pages, and it is sure to prove a most acceptable boon." — Whitehall Review.
"The first thing that strilies us, on looking at this Almanack, is astonishment that it has never occurred to anyone to bring out such a book before. The more credit, therefore, to the gallant editor or editors who have at last given us an Almanack worthy of all the Services."— Arrivi and Navy Magazine.
"The Service Almanack Is the best shilling's worth of information connected with the Services we have seen for a long time. It contains a little of everything, and a good deal of many things. The ' Year's Journal," and the ' Dictionary of Battles' are most useful for reference, and the list of the winners of all honours during the year a novel and excellent idea. The editing is excellent throughout." — United Service Gazette.
" A work of reference which is sure to be handled constantly during the year. The list of members of botli Houses of Parliament who are serving or liave served in Her Majesty's Forces strikes us as particularly useful." — United Service Magazine.
