The Hampshire Ledger is evidently one of a series of Account Books belonging to the London Vicariate, the remainderof which have not yet been found Apparently the London Clergy Library, or a good portion ofit, found its way to Old Hall, Ware. It is possible that the Librarysuffered damage in the GordonRiots and was transferredfrom Gray's Inn to Moorfields If so , that would explain the presence of the Ledgerat St. Edmund's College, for the Moorfields ClergyLibrary was sent thither .
This Ledger was kept by the Rev. John Philip Betts, Treasurer ofthe Hampshire Funds, and by his successor, the Rev. Peter Browne The Rev. John Philip Betts was educated at Douay, arriving there on 16 May 1724, as a convictor or paying-guest He was ordained at Ypres on 21 September 1726, and left Douay on 14 February 1730 , having obtained his Licentiate in Theology (C.R.S., xxviii, 117 and note, 134, 153). He was assistant to the Rev. Joseph Gildon, the Head of the School at Twyford When the latter died, 26 July 1736 , the Rev. John Betts became the Head of the School. Twyford School closed down rather suddenly , circa 1745, and the Rev. Mr. Betts retired to Gray's Inn where he had charge of the Clergy Library and became Administrator of the Hampshire Funds He was elected to the Chapter in 1732. It would seem that he did not go immediately to London, for in this Ledgerhe charges expenses" to andin London" between 1747 and 1750, and " from Arundel to Petersfield to meet Mr. Savage " in 1746. He died in London 28 March 1770. The Very Rev. Peter Browne succeeded him as Administrator of the Hampshire Funds. He was born at Cadiz in 1731 , of an Irish father and an English mother He went to Douay and tookthe Oath 26 May 1753 . He was a deacon before October 1755, and left Douay 17 August 1756. After ordination he was chaplain to the Sardinian Embassy (C.R.S. , xxx, passim); was elected to the Chapter in 1760 and was Dean of the Chapterfrom 1789 until his death, 31 May 1794 (C.R.S., xix, 206; xxviii, 246). Among the Funds administered by the Rev. Mr. Betts were three concerning Winchester: (a) St. Peter House; * He was the son of James Betts (who afterwards became the Prior of the Carthusians at Nieuport and took the name Joseph: he died in 1729) and Frances , daughter of Mr. Sergeant Trinder of Berry Court, near Bentley, Hants. Canon Burton (MS . Collection, Westm Archives, File I, A-B) does not know whether the priest ordained in 1726 was John Philip or his father From C.R.S. vol xxviii it is clear that it was John Philip He also has a query: was he the Mr. Betts at Bellhouse , Essex, in 1754 ? A brother of John Philip, Joseph, went to Douay in September1716 , but died as a student there (C.R.S. , xxviii, 45n).
Gillowsays (Dict. of Eng. Cath., i, 206) that Betts succeeded the Rev. Walter Fleetwood as Head of the School in 1732 or 1733 .
C.R.S. , xix, 206, gives Oporto as his birthplace, in the year 1730 .
(b) Winchester Poor; (c) Richard Spencer's Fund The Capital of the two first was in New South Sea Annuities, plus an annual amount to be paid by Mr. Richard Martin, a farmer of Barton Stacy, who went bankrupt and absconded in 1757/8. The third, the Richard Spencer Fund, was a legacy from Richard Spencer of Barton StacytoWinchester amounting to £600, of which 200 was in New South Sea Annuities, and part of Richard Martin's Bond The remainder was a mortgage on an estate at Hursley for which nothing had been paid for years. In 1748 John Betts receives the capital sum of £400 and all the interest due to date . Itwould be interesting to know whetherthe property on which the mortgagewas held was the estate of Roger Corham, where the Silkstead School was established *
(
The purposes of Richard Spencer's legacy were:
1) To increase the salary of the Winchester incumbent
(2) For Masses to be said for the Benefactorby the six priests nearest to Barton Stacy (originally £6)
(3) For the Poor
(4) For apprenticing poor children at Winchester (when there was a balance in hand) ..
£10
£3
£2
(5) For burying the Poor in St. James's Cemetery 10/7
There was also £100 at 4% held by Mrs. Wells on a Bond This seems to be the Bond referred to in Winchester Register A (C.R.S., i, 188), where it is recorded that Mrs. Frances Smith (she was not yet married to Alexander Wells) received this £100 in 1732/3 and engaged to pay 4% annually to Charles Aldridge for his life, and afterwards to the priest at Winchester, for Masses for the Aldridge family Mr. Betts enters the receiptoftwo years' interest in July 1750 , from which we may surmise that Charles Aldridge died circa 1748. Mrs. Wells herselfdied in 1756. No further mention is made of any interest In 1758 John Betts paid 1/9 for the Bond, but gives no reason for doing so The Rev. Peter Brownecame to Winchesterin December 1773" to recover interest on Mrs Wells' Bond," presumably from her nephew, EdwardSheldon, since he received of Mr. Sheldon per Mr. Spearing (the lawyer) three years' interest due in January 1773.
From 1746 the Rev. John Betts also administereda sum of £500 left by the Rev. Robert Hills, alias Hyde, mainly to subsidize priests who cared for groups ofneglected Catholics . The Rev. RobertHillshad left his books to the ClergyLibrary at Winchester, as did other priests of the District, and the legacy made a provision of £2 a year for the Winchesterincumbent to look after the ClergyLibrary. When the Rev. Peter Brownebecame Administrator no paymentsfrom this Fund were shownunless they were included in the dividends for theHants Fund It is rather curiousto note that the total of the Fundsadminis* Or has it some connexion with the mortgage of William Holman and the securitiesgivenby John Betts, as mentionedin the Minutes ofthe Consults of the Old Brotherhood ?
See C.R.S., xlii, 6
Thereare books there which belonged to, amongothers, RogerCorham, the Revv . Augustine Taylor, John Churcher, Bonaventure Codrington, William Bernard, Edward Hunt, John Route, Edward Coffin, as well as to the following asyet unidentifiedpriests: EllisWarham, Edmund Moreand William Woodiate.
tered by the Rev. John Betts was £1,773 13s Od. It may bea mere accident that the figure shown by the Rev. Peter Brownein 1792 was £1,773 13s. 6d., but it does raise a suspicion that he allocated the entireHillsFund toWinchesterand also that the capital of Mrs.Wells's Bond had been spent.
The first mention of the Hampshire and Havant Funds in the Ledgerapart from the Rev. John Betts's entries in 1760 on slips of paper, now pasted on the inside coversis made by the Rev. Peter Browne in 1770after the deathof the Rev. John Betts It is apparent that the latter had left £100 to the Hampshire Fund. He himself no doubt had kept the Hampshire Fund accounts in another ledger The Havant Fund evidently descends from a separate source It may possiblybe connected with the Caryll legacy * The Hampshire Fund still exists and is now known as The HampshireSecular Clergy Fund (vulgoThe HampshireHog), andthis Fundstill pays a separate dividend to the Havant incumbent, apart from the ordinary dividends to its members The only other Fund mentionedin the Ledger is theShort Fund which pays out 5/9 ayear (save the 5/3 paid in one year, possibly by mistake), evidently honoraria for masses for the Short family.
A transcript of the Rules of the Hampshire Fund, of Donations to the Fund and of Resolutions passed by the Hampshire Clergy, is given beforethe Ledger. These are the earliest known references to the Fund.
From at least 1796 the incumbent ofBrockhampton (Havant), the Rev. Richard Southworth, was the Administrator of the Hampshire and Havant Funds until his death in 1817. He kept his accounts in hisownledger, thefirst pages ofwhich are devotedto these two Funds. Thereafterthe accounts are interwoven with those of the Mission. It was not possible therefore to publish his details of the Hampshireand Havant funds in this volume. They must be consulted in a subsequent volume which will contain the Brockhampton Registers and Records.
Since entries in this Register deal with places which are now lost centres of the Faith, it may be as well to give some accountof these lost centres here
Sherfield English. This is a village some five miles from Romsey , on the Salisbury Road The manorofSherfield English was purchased from Henry Ringwood byLionel Tichbornein 1567. Lionel was brother to Peter and Nicholas , who both died in prison for the Faith The intimate connexion of Nicholas with St. James's cemetery in Winchester has been already told (C.R.S., xlii, 145 sqq ). In Elizabeth's early days Lionel appears to have resided in Salisbury and to have conformed to the Establishment, for in 1568 the churchwardens ofSt. Thomas's in that city were " Lyonel Tycheborne and Giles Thorneburye, who received towards makyngeof ye neworgaynes as appearth by a byll, £7 . 13. 5." Moreover, his son, Henry, who went to Rheims in 1583 , was described as of the diocese of Salisbury. He became a Jesuit and died Minister of the Jesuit College in Sevillein 1606 (Foley, Records S.J., vii, 779) Lionel became reconciled to the Church and suffered in consequence His name is givenin the Recusants' Exchequer Rolls of 1592/3 and his residence as Sherfield English His other sons

The details are based upon theMSS ofthe Rt. Rev. John HenryKing, Bishop of Portsmouth.
were Roger, Michael, and possibly Francis * He appears to have died before 1596, for at Whitsuntide in that year Mass was said by the future martyr, (Ven ) Thomas Tichborne (+Tyburn, 20 April 1602), in Mr. Roger Tichborne'shouse at which "old Mrs Tichborne , " Francis TichborneandWilliam Ringwoodwere present, but not Roger (C.R.S., v, 361) From which it appears that Mass was saidat Sherfield English but that the authorities were unsuccessful in tryingto ensnare the master of the house, Roger The Third Douay Diary (C.R.S.,x, 84) records the arrival from Seville, in April 1605 , of Simon Tichborne . He was sent home after a fortnight Who was this Simon? The Victoria County History ofHampshiregives the date ofRoger's death as 1620. He was succeeded by his brother Michael, who sold Sherfield English to Bartholomew Smith in 1629, though he and his familyremainedonas tenants The" sale " mayhave beenanaccommodation, to block the incidence of the Penal Laws. Brother Henry Foley, S.J. (Records S.J., v, 820) tells us Michael Tichborne married Margaret Smith, and that their son Henry, born about 1632 , went to the English College, Rome, togetherwith AugustineHill of Farehamthe future Franciscan Chaplain at Tichborne House (cf. Foley, vi, 375-6; C.R.S. , xl, 43)-on 14 November 1649, as a convictor among the scholars , and left 7 April 1652. Henry Tichbornein Romestated that his father was wounded by robbers and died after his return to England on 26 December 1645. This helps us to understand the quotation in Oxfordshire Post-Reformation Missions (p 289): 30 June 1652 BartholomewSmith of the Soke, Winchester , " being entitled to the farm of Sherfield English for 70 years, complains that Michael Tichborne(lessee thereoffrom WilliamSmith, Bartholomew'sbrother)* who is dead and left a wife supposed to be a recusant , the County Committee have sequestered it for her recusancy . "
Henry Tichborne also mentioned his two brothers and his two sisters . One ofthese brotherswas Michael, whomarriedMary Catherine Kempe, daughterofHenry Kempe ofSlindon, Sussex, andAnneKempe (née Coope) of Hampshire. Mary Catherine Kempe was born in 1619 , was described as" wife andwidow of Mr. Michell Titchborne ofShernill in hampsheere" whenshe was clothedas a Benedictinenun at Pontoise 12 January 1677. She was professed 16 January 1678 , anddied20May 1689 (C.R.S., xvii, 304). "Shernill' is Sherfield , also called 'Shervile' in the ChapterList mentionedbelow MichaelTichbornewas obviously dead before 1677. Their son, Michael, married Mary MagdalenRoper, daughter of John Roper of North Court, Kent. This couple had at least three sonsWilliam, Joseph and Benjamin This MichaelTichborne must have died before 1692 since the Old Chapterlist of priests in Hampshire in that year shows a Jesuit as living with Mr. William Tichborne " at Shervile" (C.R.S., iv, 108) It is William, too, who makes the return for the property at Sherfield in 1715 (Estcourt and * The relationship of Francis is uncertain He went to Valladolid. The entry in the Register of the College runs, " Francis Tichborne of the diocese of Winchester was admitted to this College 30 May1604: being madea priest he was sent to England " (C.R.S., xxx, 84). He was then twenty, had been born in Winchester of noble and Catholic parentage and had always lived in the bosom of the Church He had been at St. Omer since 1601. He went on the Mission in 1608. If he was born circa 1584 and went to St. Omer in 1601 on his father's advice, he could scarcely be Lionel's son , nor Nicholas's of Hartley Maudit He may have been Roger's son . The parentheses have been inserted to make the meaning clear .
Payne, English Catholic Nonjurors of 1715, p 239) In this return he mentionshis two brothers Joseph and Benjamin. Michael's widow (Mary Magdalen Roper) was still alive in 1715 (Eng Cath. Nonjurors, p. 232). The Old Chapterdocument does not name the Jesuit Father who was chaplain there in 1692. Brother Foley says that there was a Jesuit there in 1707 , but does not give his name: "William Tichborne , Esq., has one of ours, who has £10 : 00 per annum, as follows: Mrs Tichborne , widow, allows him £5; Mrs Hants' allows £5 : 10. Note the manner how: Mr Moore, then at Shirefield, bought for Mr Tichborne, as I suppose, some land in Shirefield or thereabouts ofMr White, then living at Brimore, and he laid down for the same £110 . Now Mr T. pays to the gentlemanthere the interest of the above capital, £10 . 10 per annum instead of paying it into 'Mrs Hants'' hands (Foley, Records S.J., v, 815n). The meaning of this passage is not altogether clear, but the complaint seems to be that the ten guineas should be paid to 'Mrs Hants'that is to the Jesuit Districtwhence we may infer that the capital was paid by the Jesuits and that Mr. Moore was a Jesuit. If this is so , it is possible that Mr. Mooreis the alias ofthe Rev. John Vaudry, S.J. (alias More), a native of Chichester , born 1658 , who was a missioner in England in 1690 and served the Hants District for many years. He died 19 October 1725, probably in the same District (Foley, vii , 794-5) Moreover, we may presume that he was chaplain at Sherfield before 1707. "
A list of Jesuit addresses (C.R.S., xiii, 160 sqq.) gives the names of two chaplains-(p 185 , No. 128) Richard Meredith, S.J., and (p. 186 , No. 154) MichaelDean, S.J., "atMrsTichburnsatShirefield byRumsey bagg, Hampshire" The Rev. Richard Meredith, S.J., was there circa 1724 (Foley, vii, 502), and must have been there till 1727 when the List of Addresses was begun (see C.R.S., xiii, 60). He was a native of London, born in 1696. He died at St. Omer 26 October 1754. The Rev.MichaelDean, S.J., was born at St. Germain's29 September 1696 , and entered the Society 7 September 1714. He was at Sherfield at some time between 1727 and 1734 , the period covered by the Listof Addresses, and obviously followed the Rev. Richard Meredith, whose name has been cancelled and the Rev. Michael Dean's insertedin the same List He died at Watten 8 July 1760 (Foley, vii, 198).
Inthe ListofAddresses there are three Jesuits named Tichborneall, accordingto Foley, born in Hampshire The Rev. John Hermenegild Tichborne (C.R.S., xiii, 171 , No. 11) was the brother ofSir Henry Joseph, whom he succeeded as fifth baronet in 1743 (Foley, vii, 779) He was in the Hants District in 1716. The other two seem to belong to the Sherfield branch, possibly sons of William The Rev. Michael Tichborne , born in 1692, entered the Society in 1712 and died 4 July 1751 (Foley, vii, 780) The Rev. John Tichborne , junior, born in 1694 , entered the Societywith Michael in 1712 (or later in 1714) He served in the Hants Districtfor some years, at Southend and at Padwell. He died 20 April 1772 (Foley, vii, 779).
In 1741 , on 9 July, Bishop Challonervisited Sherfield , which he calls" Sherwell" (see E. H. Burton, LifeandTimes ofBishopChalloner , * Benjamin married Elizabeth Sturdyand was living in Southampton in 1725 (cf. C.R.S., xlii, 126) Their son Michael went to the English College, Rome, 21 July 1753 , and was ordained priest 31 March 1759 (cf. C.R.S. , xl, 209)
The name given to the St. Thomas of Canterbury College or Jesuit District of Hants, Wilts, Sussex and Dorset.
i, facing p. 148), a name Canon Burton could not identify apparently (see ibid., pp. 156-7). There was a congregationof fiftyof whom twenty-threewere confirmedundera priestnamed Martin. Ithas been suggested that this was Fr. Gregory Martin, O.S.F. It was more probably the John Martin in this Hampshire Ledger, a priest as yet unidentified, but who, it is now fairly certain, was not the Gosport John Martin (see C.R.S., xlii, 9) He was at Sherfield from at least 1741 to circa 1760, as the Ledgershows. His successorwas a Franciscan , the Rev. Joseph Hickins. He had come on the English Mission in 1732 , but returned to Aire as confessor to the nuns in 1740 and Bruges in 1741. In 1758 heis said to be at Sherfield (Thaddeus, Franciscans in England, p. 252): "TheincumbentofShirefield was chieflymaintained byMrHolman's legacy forthe Missionaryservingthe poorin Hampshire . In connection with this Fund, fifty-two Masses had to be discharged annually Hehadalso anallowance ofMr Sheldon forserving Shirefield: of Mr Betts for serving Bishop's Waltham: and of Mr Young § for serving Stockbridge The father who was in residence here had also to attend to the spiritual needs of Catholics at Barton Stacey, Uphusborn[now Hurstbourne Tarrant] Basingstoke andWhitchurch , in case there was no other priest available for duty in those parts " (Ibid., p 178)
The Ledgerfixes the time ofthe Rev. Joseph Hickins'schaplaincy. He was paid for attendance at Longwood until the close of 1761. Thereafter the priest at Winchester took over the obligation and the remuneration.
It is possible that the Rev. Richard Prescottand the Rev. Robert Tommins (cf. C.R.S., xlii, 9) were at Sherfield . They both laboured in Hampshire and were members of the Clergy Fund The former was paid a dividend in 1772, which meant that he had been resident in the county for some time (he baptized twice in Winchester in 1768 andonce in 1771) since therule was, andis, that members'firstdividends were not paid to them but accredited towards their entrance fee of £5. Hence the £1 17s 4d which Richard Prescott received in May 1772 was evidently the remainderof a dividendafter his £5 had been creditedfor that year. In the previous year, 1771, the Rev. Robert Tommins received £2 15s Od . from the Fund, which shows him to havebeen alreadyworking in the county for some time. Unfortunately these payments from the Fund are the Rev. Peter Browne's first allusions to it; the Rev. J. P. Betts records nopayments Possibly they were kept in a different ledger.
"In 1740 SirWm Holman, Knight, left£400forthe supportofamissionary of the Order in England, in whatever place it might be thought most expedient" (Thaddeus , Franciscansin England, p 96) William Holman of Warkworthmarried MaryWells andlived at Longwood He diedin 1740 .
The Manor of Sherfield English had devolved upon Alexander Wells in virtue of his marriage with Frances Smith (see C.R.S. , xlii, p xii) When he died s.p. in 1753 it was inherited by the son of AnastasiaSmith, who had married William Sheldon Edward Sheldon was, therefore, helping to maintain a chaplain for the benefit ofhis tenantry
Mr. Betts's contribution was from the Robert Hills's fund See the Ledger infra, pp. 50-63.
§ Mr. Young has not been identified, unless it was that the Young family of Whatcombe, Berks, had an interest in Stockbridge, which was , asitstill is, a horse-training centre
It is interesting to note that the Franciscan Father was supposed to attend to Catholics right across the northern and westernparts ofthecounty.
Sherfield is mentioned in Bishop Challoner's Report to Romein 1773 , but is omitted from Bishop Talbot's in 1786. Edward Sheldon sold the manor to John Ingram Lockhart in 1785 and presumably Ichabod was written across the Mission of Sherfield English * Longwood
There are references in the Ledger to the congregation around Longwood , Upham and Bishop's Waltham Bishop's Waltham lies to the south-east of Winchester; Longwoodis in the parish of Owslebury, five miles east-south-east of Winchesterbetween the Petersfield Road and the old Portsmouth Road Upham is about two and a half miles north-west of Bishop's Waltham and almost midway between Bishop's Waltham and Longwood
There was a Longwood House , known now as Longwoodand now as Rosehill, and a Longwood Warren and Lodge, on the borders of Owslebury and Morestead (Victoria County History of Hampshire , iii, 334; Rev. T. C. Wilks, History of Hampshire , ii, 91-2)
Longwood is first mentionedin February 1583-"Mr Tichborne, of Porchester , now residing at Longwood, receivethAskew , Fisher ,§ Yong, Gardiner, ** Somerfield " The spy, Thomas Dodwell, also gave similar information-"M Tichbourne, sometimes of Porchester , who remaining at Ronge-wood, receiveth Askew, Fysher, Younge, Gardiner, and any other Seminary priest that comes. He being at London, M Fortescue brought thither Somerfield , his three sisters being the receivers (Foley, Records S.J., vi, 720, 724). "

§ In 1606 Sir Thomas Clerke sold the manor of Merdon [in the parish of Hursley, which parish is mentioned in the Ledger] with the rest of his property to William Brock When the latter died in 1618, his only child , Elizabeth, was a minor, and Sir Thomas Savage and Sir Richard Tichborne were named as her guardians When Elizabeth married Sir John Arundell he became lord of the manor (Vic Co. Hist of Hampshire, iii, 419)
Esq., of whom it is only known that he lived at Longwoodand was reputeda greatlawyer " William Brock (or Brooke) hasnot beenidentified (cf. C.R.S., xlii, 153 , note 14) In the Arundell Pedigrees (privately printed) he is described as " WilliamBrock ofthe County ofCheshire " He married Ann, daughter of Sir Benjamin Tichborne, and had the one daughtermentionedabove, Elizabeth. In 1626 Elizabeth married Sir John Arundell of Lanherne , son of the 13th Sir John by Anne, daughterofSir Henry Jerningham. Her husband sold Hursley in 1630 and himself died in November 1646. Elizabeth survived him for many years and lived at Longwood
During the Commonwealth shesuffered by confiscation (cf. Calendar for Compounding Estates, vol iii) She braved the Penal Laws by maintaining a chaplain at Longwood The names of only three are known to us because they happened to die there. They were (1) the Rev. William Palmer, O.S.B. Foley gives him as a Missioner in Hampshire circa 1632-3(Records S.J., iii, 266), while Dom Weldon (Chronological Notes) gives an Obituary of him: " At Longwoodin Hampshiredied R. F. William Palmer professed in Italy, a man of great learning and rare perfection and of long and faithful laboursin the Mission, May 31 , 1655." (2) The Rev. William Rudge, a Discalced Carmelite He was born at Nimpton in Devonshire , about May 1623, the son of Michael Rudge, alias Leigh, and Anne (Dowrick). He had lived mostly in Surrey with his parents. He left Englandin 1639 and studiedat St. Omer, going thence to the English College in Rome on 1 November 1642, where his alias was Dowrick. He was ordainedpriest 8 December 1647 , and leftthe College tojointhe Discalced Carmelites 27 April 1648 (Foley, Records S.J. , vi, 357; C.R.S. xl, 28) He spent his last two years at Longwood, died there on 28 December 1664, and was buried in St. James's Cemetery, Winchester , where the name on his stone is given as John Riglei (cf. C.R.S. , xlii, 152 , M.I. No. 6). (3) The Rev. Robert Robinson, O.S.B. Ofhim Weldon says (op. cit ) " At Longwoodin Hampshire, aged 66, on the 6th of August 1667 died R. F. Paul, otherwise Robert Robinson , descendedofa noble family, a famous lawyer before he come to religion, a finelyspoken man and very polite in all respects In applying himself to religion and to holy studies, he became a famous preacher,
An action of trespass, Brock v Spencer, was brought in the eighth year of James I. The question turned upon what customary rights copyholders had "in a close called Newlands, in Hursley " The defendant's plea was " that Newlands was customary lands of the manor of Marden [Merdon], in the parish of Hursley aforesaid And that there is a custom within the saidmanor of Mardenthat the copyholdtenants ofthe same tenementsmight fell timber, &c. " The plaintiff successfully traversed the custom. Brock's death Spencer brought a writ of error against Sir Thomas Savage and other ofthe plaintiff'sexecutors (Rev. T. C. Wilks, Hist of Hampshire, i, 417n) Hursley and Richard Spencer both figure in the Ledger
After Cranbury, a copyhold held of the manor of Merdon, also passed in the early seventeenth century from Sir Thomas Clerke to William Brock of Longwood(Rev. T. C. Wilks, op cit , ii, 95-7) Cranbury afterwardsdescended to Roger Corham (see C.R.S. , xlii, 1 sqq)
* Yet Longwood Warren and Lodge were sold to Thomas Hussey and his heirs in 1648 (Vic Co. Hist of Hampshire, iii, 334) Is it possiblethat Elizabeth lived at Longwood House?
There is evidence that in 1640 or 1641 , and probably for some years before and after, Dom Leander Prichard, O.S.B., and possibly two or more other Benedictines , were in Hampshire, though whereis notstated (cf. C.R.S. , xxxiii, 151 , 153).
passed Doctor in Divinity, was made Cathedral Prior of Ely, chosen President and was designed by King Charles II for one of those who were to have accompanied him, if Sir George Booth's undertakinghad succeeded. " His stone, now vanished, was visible in Milner's days, who described him as Chaplain to Queen Catherine (C.R.S., xlii, 97). Lady Elizabeth Arundell was a Convicted Recusant of 1663/4 She was buried in Winchester (C.R.S., xlii, 153 , M.I. No. 14), but no date is given for her death At her death the Mass centre at Longwood presumably disappeared.
No more is heard of Longwooduntil the next century, when , as the Hampshire Ledger shows, it was again a Mass centre William Holman of Warkworth Manor, near Banbury, rented Longwood. Was it LongwoodHouse which was his residence ? The House was in the possession of George, 1st Lord Carpenter , until his death in 1731 (Rev. T. C. Wilks, Hist. of Hampshire , ii, 91), but the succeeding residents' names are not given William Holmandied in 1740 , but an entry of John Betts (see infra, p 24) makes it clear thatfor some time before Mr. Holman's death Mass was said at Longwood . After Mr. Holman'sdeathit is possible that the Rev. Robert Hills, being a" riding missionary , " paid special attention to this abandoned flock. At all events he left a legacy of £500 from which the Hants Clergywere to be paid for attendanceupon " families or persons not otherwisesufficiently taken care of, " and the first payment from the legacy wasfor Longwood , to the Rev.John Martin on LadyDay 1747. The payment was continuedto this priest until 1759, when the Franciscan Chaplain atSherfield English, the Rev.Joseph Hickins,assumed theresponsibility. In 1761 the Winchester incumbent, the Rev. Patrick Savage (alias Grace), accepted the obligation of this congregation , which continued to be served from Winchester till at least 1845, after which date no accounts are extant

Transcribed from a copy made by the Rev. Bonaventure Codrington in 1694. Thereis an earlier MS copy dated 3 November 1683 , withoutsignature, and ending with a motto which occurs in some of the Clergy Books in the Library in St. Peter's Presbytery: "Laus Deo atque Deipară Virgini ffinis coronat opus " The two copies are identical save for the addition, made by the Rev. Bonaventure Codrington, of " (V.G.)" after each mention of the Archdeacon . Inthe earlier copy there follows the Decree (in Latin) ofthe Vicar Apostolic, dated 31 December 1685, concerning Feastdays This is one of several MSS newly bound up in half morocco entitled "Obituaryof Priests, TwyfordSchool Rules, and others" (see C.R.S. , xii, 1).
Throughout this transcription contractionsand abbreviationshavebeen expanded (e.g., intheMS . " ye" is everywhere writtenfor" the "), in accordance with the rules of the C.R.S. Council
It was without doubt the inspirations of the Holy Ghost& an admirable effect of that vehement fire of devine [sic] Love which he had newly kindled in the hearts of those primitive Xtians, that moved them to doe what is recorded Acts 2 verse 44& 45. "All they alsoe that believed were together& had all thingscommon,theirpossessions & substancethey sold &devided them to all, according as everyone had need"
And again somewhat more at larg Chapt 4thfrom_verse the 32d " And the multitude of believers had one heart & one soul neitherdid any one say that ought was his own of all those things which he possessed " & verse 34 " For neither was any one needy among them for as many as were owners of Lands & houses sold them & brought the prices of those things which they sold & layd it before the feet of the Apostles & to every one wasdevided according as every one had need . " And it is highlyobservable which follows verse 36 " And Joseph who was surnamed ofthe Apostles Barnabas which is by interpretation the son of Consolation, a Levite a Cyprian born, whereas he had a piece of land , sold it&broughttheprice & layditbeforethefeet ofthe Apostles. " Joseph a Levite of the old Law, designed by the Holy Ghost for a priest, a Bishop & an Apostle of the Law of Grace (not improbably syrnamed by the Apostles for his eminent zeal & charitye, Barnabas, that is, the son of consolation) is sett downasthefirst & leading Example of so excellent & devine a worke, to teach the Priests & Ministers of Jesus Christ how free & forward they ought to shew themselves by giving examples to the Laytyein works of publick Charity.
Now althoughthis holy ceconomywas not under precept, but only of Counsell & voluntary, yet was it marvelously conducing to the state of a begining Church, oppressed, persecuted, & strangled under by the powers of this world For by this means (besides the perfect leaving all to follow with less incumbrance & more expedition Jesus Christ) were layd the foundations of humilitye, upon which the Church of Christ is built & by which it is always advanced; unity was nourished and strengthned , mutuall Charity practised & maintaynd, the necessity as well Churchmen as Laymen were plentifully relieved, the piety ofthe rich exercisd , their merit augmented, & finally all encouraged so muchthemoreboldly & confidentlyto profess the faith of Jesus Christ, & to suffer persecution for the same, by how muchthe lessthey feardto fayle of the assistancesof theirbrethren oftheir relief
This the devine penman St Luke insinuates in the place above cited v 33 "And with great power did the Apostles give testi-
monye ofthe Resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord & greatgrace was in themall." To which by way of reasonhee adds imediately "for neither was any one needy amongst the" &c ., & the rest which is above rehearsed Soe excellent & devine an Invention was it to have a Fund & common treasure by which soe many admirableeffects were produced.
Thestate & conditions of English Catholicks in manythings resembles that of the primitive Christians, but more espeacially dos ours, the Clergy, who on the one side lye under the Rod of still threatning persecutions which oftentymsfall heavy upon us , & on the other side are destitute of Church patrymonys, as the Apostles & primitive Bishops & Clergy were But in this case we resemble them not, that for want of raising common stocks & setling commentreasuresin our respective provinces &Countrys, as was continually done by the primitive Christians till the time ofConstantine (even after theApostolicklivingin common ceased , witness many ancient Canonsforthe regulatingthereof) Isay,for want of such a common treasure wee have noe certayn way of relieving the necessitys of the Brethren but are even driven to seek itt just when the extremitye pinches, & like improvident people are often for this cause exposd to great wants.
Butfrom hencearrisesyet a greater evill, whichis,thatthere being noe common stock or fund out ofwhich a ready provision may be made for the needy, divers Priests who have not a competent allowance from some particular family, nor any temporall patrimony of their own, are forced to undertakelarge districts for a subsistance, whereby they have very little leisure to attend to their own improvementby study and contemplation , neither can they soe frequently visitt theirflocks, nor attend soe fully to their spirituall comfort & improvement as otherwise they might doe; if, where their subsistances are smallfrom the Laity they might be supplyd out of the Common . Let it be considered , whether a more regular & learned Clergy, & a better, more instructed & virtuous Laity might not be hoped for if these evills were thusremoved ? A naturall consequenceto theformeristhat ill applyed & anti-apostolicall principle of self provision, which causing to much solicitude for the future, fearingwant in old age, is thebane ofthepublick good & renders us oftheClergy especially weak & inconsiderable in ourselves & less regarded nay even contemptible to others
All these evills would by a Fund be redressed, by whichmore Priests in every County would be maintayned, their externall labors lessened, their internall retreatsmore frequent: all people, the poor espeacially in all places whateverwould be more duely observed , every Priest be competently provided for , nor would there be any cause for fear of want in old age
It must be considered that the care which has been continuallytakenby both Priests & Laity for the maintenance &support of Colledges beyond seas is highly laudable & ought to be still
withgreat zeal continued, for they are Nurseries &, as I may say , Market-places which supplyour Country withdevine labourers in God's Vineyard: but indeed wee have been & are yet wanting in our own to maintain & support such as are or might be sent to our support and assistance out of the Colledges; which being att present by the bounty of his Holyness, the liberality of Catholick Princes, the charity of eminent Prelates & by the donation of divers personsof the best quality in our Countryindifferently well endowed; it is high tyme for us to begin to shew & practice at least an equall care howto maintayn a great number of labourers att home, it being no less heroick & worthy of our due consideration to preserve, provide for & encrease the number of labourers here, than it is to prepare & bring them up for that holy end abroad
To conclude, in consequence to what has been already alledged, it ought to be a most evident argument to us thebrethren of this district & to the Clergy of every district throughout this distressed nation, of the absolute necessity of having a Fund or Common Stock, to consider that noe society or congregation of men whetherecclesiasticall or merely temporall or civill, dos or can subsist in the natureof a Communitywell cemented & united without some deposition or common stock, as weeplaynly see by the example of Christ himself, & his disciples, who had a common purse or stock to supply their necessitys, & alsoe by the practice of the holy Apostles & the first Christians . For as eachindividuall person cannot support himselfin this world without a livelyhood which consists in some temporall being or estate more or less: soeneither can a community, as it is a body politick, preserve it self without the providentiall care of providing some being or estate more or less belonging to it Without this we are not, nor can not be said to be one well compacted body whose nerves are properly the estate by which it subsists; but only soe manyparticular personswho attend eachto his own interest& selfpreservation; or at least a body without nerves, sinews or bones , weak , yielding & winding every way & in fine not able to stand upon its legs.
Itis therefore without doubtnot only exceeding commendable but absolutelynecessary to the being & well being of the Clergy to imitate, as far as is consistant with our present condition,that most wise providence & conduct of Jesus Christ, his Apostles & primitive Christians, whichcannot be (as thestateofour condition now stands) more closely followed than by raysing&establishing a Fund or Common Stock, whereby wee may be able to support one anotherin tyme of need & att all other times to have where withallto promotethe publick good & advance ofthis ourdistrict It is very obvious how many evils will be thus providedagainst: how many good effects will naturally ensue : how many Religious people of the Laity will be by our example greatly incited & encouraged to have a part & share in the merit of soe excellent & good a work
That therefore a Fund may be begun & established to the glory of God & the wellfair of the English Clergy in generall & inparticularofthisdistrict ofHantshire, thesefollowingproposalls are made to be agreedupon & determined as Rules &Constitutions amongst us.
1st The first & principal means propos'd is that wee the Brethren ofthis District as a form & example to theLaityshould according to our ability & condition contribute our Quota's towards a Fund, which may be by one these 3 wayesas it best suits to each ones power & good will.
1st by giving a present summ of monye to be payd into the hands ofthe treasurer Or2dly to allow somewhat yearly for such a term of tyme as any one shall willingly oblidge himself to by some present writingunder his hand before competent witnesses, which writing isto be delivered to the treasurer ; Or3dlyto oblidge himselfby Bond orObligatoryBill to give some determinate summ of Mony to the Fund to be payd att his decease whether he live or dye a member of the district or not; upon condition he has remaynd a member thereof some considerable tyme.
The 2d proposall is that to the end something yearly may forthwith be raysed for the supplying such wants as may occur & for the more speedy increase & advance of the Fund, such Brethren as shall choos to give their contribution thereuntoatt their decease in the manner above mentioned, shall be mov'd to pay some contribution as long as they shall be able & remayn members of this district.

8th. that for the better encouragement both of Priests & Laity to contribute towards the raising & establishing a Fund, every Brother in this district shall offer once a month for the Benefactors of the said Fund, & upon notice given of any that shall give a determinate summ, for every 5 each Priest shall offeronce for the Donor, eitherin his life tyme or att his decease , as he himself shall require it.
9th. that each Brother in this district transcribe or procure to be transcribeda copy of all Constitutions agreedupontouching the Fund, as well for his own use as alsoe whereit shall be thought expedient to communicate them to Lay Catholicks, the more efficatiouslyto excite them to contribute to soe holy & excellent a work

11th That in case any Moneys or goods placed out or lent by due advice, should chance to miscarry or be lost, neither the Treasurer shall be further accountable for them, save only to declare the manner of the loss : But the Arch-deacon, as well as any other officer or other Brother ofthis district shall be accountable to the Ven: Dean & Chapter (sede vacante) for any wilfull miscarriage in the management ofthe Fund, unless in case of any loss of moneys or goods as aforesaid Yet, whateverobligation was undertaken by the Clergy according to the intention ofthe Donor shall be notwithstanding performed as if the donation were still in being.

Chapter the 5th
Off the regulation of the district
1st to the end that the whole district may be duelysupplyed & served: & that none may ask spirituall bread without having it given them, each Brother ought carefully to enquire into the parts adjacent to him, what Catholicks want due assistance & help: & if he shall understand that any doe, lett him give notice thereoftotheSuperiors that soe a provision may bemadeforthem.
2ly that wee wouldforthis purpose use our best endeavours to encreasethe number of labourers : 1st by resigning such places as eitherare att toogreat a distancefrom our respective residences , or as wee cannot frequently visitt : 2¹y by exhorting such as are able to give residences to Priests 3ly by promoting with our example, as well as with our friends, the establishing a Fund.
3ly Whereas the regulation of every man's district is very
necessary, it would be exceeding expedient that the whole fraternity would by unanimous consent agree to allott to each a circuit as near as maybe to theirresidences: providednevertheless that the Laity may have their full content & satisfaction in the person who is to have the care of their souls. This therefore is tobeunderstood in our circumstances soe farras it maystandwith grace& good will of the Laity, to whichwee oughtto induce them , as much as in us lyes by prudent persuasions.
4thifanyaggrievancesdoe happen amongst us, ifitbepossible lett them be redressedbetween ourselves, by the interposition of the Arch-deacon & some other prudent Brother, but if by this mean peace cannot be obtayn'd, lett them be referd to the Venerable Dean (sede vacante) But above all things lett all caution be had, that what differences should arise, noe scandal be given, noe complaynts be made, noe appearancesof dissensiondoe break forth by our words & comportment to the Laity.
5th that noe Brother shall enter into, or accept oftheemployment of another without the knowledge, leave & consent of the incumbent & approbation of the Arch-deacon (V.G.) : yea rather shall use his best endeavours with the Penitent or Penitents to continue & preserve the right of the incumbent as farr as may bewith discretion : espeacially if this dismission proceedout ofany unreasonable distaste or dislike in the Penitent
6th that noe Brother administerthe Sacrament of Matrimony to the Penitent or Penitents of another without the knowledge & advice of the incumbent: or if they come newly to be his Penitent or Penitents, without the advice of their last ghostly Father, unless their case & condition be evidently or sufficiently known to him.
7th that every Brother in his respective cure & charge, endeavour that as well as the place appoynted for divine service as alsoe all ornaments belonging thereunto, be decent in themselves & kept with decency & clenlyness though never so mean
8th that every Brother once a quarter or oftner iftherebe occasion acquaint the Superiors by letter with what ever occurs worth giving notice off & they the Brethren as occasion shall require. And because to maintain a mutuall Charity whichwithout some sort of correspondence is apt to grow cold, it will be expedient if once a quarter each Brother without any farther occasion would write to his Superiors & the Superiors to them.
9th That once a year there be a Meeting of all the Brethren , or at least of the Arch-deacon (V.G.), Treasurer & some others oftheDistrict, bothto consult aboutthepromotingofthepublick good, to deliberate upon all arising difficulties, to maintain & strengthen a mutuall charitytoprovidefor all emergent necessityes & to adjust all accounts belonging to the Fund

Area covered by Sopley, Canford and Stapehill Registers
TRANSCRIBED BY THE RT REV JOHN HENRY KING WITH HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION BY THE RT REV JOHN HENRY KING AND CANON R. E. SCANTLEBURY
In 1934 the present Bishop of Portsmouth (the Rt. Rev. John Henry King) transcribed the first Sopley Register and, later, wrote the Story of Sopley. This was not done , however, for publication by theCatholic Record Society At His Lordship's request, therefore, these have now been revised , rewritten and the Historical Introduction enlarged for publication in the present volume.R.E.S.
Sopley lies in the south-western corner of Hampshire: it covers the area beyond the New Forest reachingto the Dorset border The county border is now a very definite ecclesiastical frontier : it divides not only two dioceses, but also two Provinces Before the re-establishment of the Hierarchy (1850) it was the boundary between the London and Western Districts Before the days of James II, however , it meant nothing to Catholics from the religious point of view . It is necessary to stress this fact since it would appear that supportforthe Mission of Sopley came from both sides of the county boundary.
The name " Sopley " is here used because the Mission seems so to have been called by priests and people Winkton , " , " "Avon , " " Pennington and Avon,' Sopley " and " Burton Green appearto " " have been its successive titles before its removal to Christchurch. Moreover, since Pennington" was once part of its title, the parish of Lymington, and the daughter Missions of Christchurch and Lymingtonnamely, Bournemouth, Lyndhurst, Brockenhurst, New Milton and Ringwoodmay claim the honour of descent. The rich family of the Webbsof Odstock, Wilts, bought theManors of Canford in Dorset (G. Oliver, Collections, p 52) and Avon Tyrrell ontheHampshire side, and were virtually the founders of the Sopley Mission The Manor of Christchurch, which had belonged to the martyred Countess of Salisbury, Blessed Margaret Pole, and had been restored to her grand-daughter by Queen Mary, came into the possessionofthe Arundells of Wardour early in the seventeenth century. They also owned Hampreston and Stapehill across the border, in Dorset. The great Hampshire recusant families of Tichborne and Philpott also owned property in this district To these noble families, then, wemay attribute the persistence of the Faith in south-west Hampshire.
In Elizabethan days we find, in 1588 , that Mr. Tettersall * and * Mr. Tettersall and his wife were probably not permanent residentsat Beaulieu The sister of Blessed Swithun Wells, Mrs. Ann Perkins, widow of William Perkins of Ufton, Berks , had married as her second husband George Tettersall of Stapleford, Wilts In the Recusant Lists of 1592/3 thereisalsoan Edward Tettersall ofStreatley, Berks, and his wife , Catherine.
his wife, of Beaulieu , are recusants, and also Mr. Roger Lyne* of Ringwood, who had been thrown into Newgate Prison (C.R.S., xxii, 122). In 1592/3 Henry Cary has his estates at Hordle and Keyhaven sequestrated for recusancy ; Eleanor Young, wife of Simon Young of Ringwood,isindebtedto theQueenfor£180 onaccount ofherrecusancy, and Benjamin Stockwell, late of Lymington, for £160 (C.R.S., xviii, 278, 290, 289)
Whatever organization then existedand however meagre it waswas to be found across the border around Hampreston There , in fact, we find quite a number of farmers and labourers entered as recusants and owing huge sums to the Royal Exchequer When next the veil is lifted on this corner of Hampshirewe find an astonishingly large numberof Catholics in the ListofConvictedRecusants of 1662/3 . The List is very imperfect and contains the names of none of the Catholic gentry. Yet we find twenty-three convicted recusants in the " Hundred ofChristchurch," four in the " Town of Christchurch , " one in Ringwood , and another eleven in the Liberty of Westover (C.R.S., vi, 314-5).
Francis Perkins , the nephew of Blessed Swithun Wells, married Ann , daughterof Edmund Plowden , the celebrated jurist of Elizabeth's reign, and lived at Ufton Court in Berkshire . Miss Sharp (History of Ufton Court) says that their second son , Edmund, was thrice married, and was mentioned in a Herald's Visitation of Berkshire as being domiciled at Winkton near Christchurchin 1660, with his third wife, Jane Kenyon In the Fifth Douay Diary (C.R.S., xi, 521), under the date22 November1652, is notedthe arrivalfrom Englandof" Edmund Perkinshere called Moreaged 16 [altered to 18], the eldest son of Edmund Perkins and Jane Kennion, Catholics, of the place called Brooke in the County of Southampton, educated from his infancy in the Catholic Faith ' He left through ill-health on 1 May 1653. In 1692 the Rev. Edward Hunt § is said to reside with Mr. Edmund Perkins at Winkton near Christchurch, Hampshire (C.R.S., ix, 107 , where Winchester is given, a mistake for Winkton ), and is also said to have been eleven or twelve years on the Mission A broken tombstone in St. James's Cemetery, Winchester, records the burialof some
* Roger Lyne was the husband of Blessed Ann Lyne, and came of well-to-do stock living at Ringwood Apparently he was the eldestson , born about 1567. His friend and associate was William Higham, who had been practically disowned by his father, a wealthy Essex squire, on account of his reconciliation to the Faith The sister, Ann Higham, was also reconciled and married Roger Lyne. Roger matriculated at Douay in January 1593 , and died in Flanders some time after August 1594 (cf. 1st and 2nd Douay Diaries, p 280; C.R.S., ii, 249-50, 252, 255, 271; Morris, Conditions under James I, vol lxxiii)
Henry Cary, recusant, of Tadford, Hants, grandson of Thomas, the first captain of Hurst Castle This family persisted in recusancyfor a long while Unfortunately the name appears in various documents as " Carew , " Cary, " " Carey , " and " Caree (cf. C.R.S. , xiii, 121 ; v, 313; xxiv, 275) "
Blessed Swithun Wells was bailed out of prison by Francis Perkins and stayed with the latter at Ufton.
The Rev. Edward Hunt, alias Colbeck , of the diocese of Lincoln , took the College Oathat Douay in 1674. The record of his ordination is missing (First Douay Diary) He died August 1726 (C.R.S., xii, 2)
Winkton was probably read as Winton
one of importance from Winkton, who died 15 September 1676, but the name is illegible From all of which we gather that Edmund Perkins had acquired estatespossibly through his third wife, Jane Kenyonin south-west Hampshire, namely, at Brooke in the parish of Bramshaw and at Winkton just north of Christchurch*; that possibly his tombstoneor his wife'sdated 1676, is in Winchester cemetery; that his son Edmund succeeded to the estates and maintained a priest for the benefit of Catholics in the vicinity; and that this priest, the Rev. Edward Hunt, alias Colbeck, had already been on the Mission well over ten years in 1692, quite possibly in these parts. Dodd (Church History, iii, 460) tells us that Edmund Perkinswent to St. Germains in 1694 , to the court of the exiled James II, to actas tutor to his son, the " Old Pretender, " and died at St. Germains 13 August 1697. *
No further mention is made of the Perkins in these parts, and none ofthefamily is listed among the 1715 Nonjurors Among those obliged to register their property after the failure of the 1715 Rebellion we find Richard Clapcote of Sopley, carpenter, wife and six children; SimonWhite of Wardour Castle, who has a house at Ringwood; Ambrose Plowman, farmer at Wick, Christchurch, and two daughters; Richard White of Evilton, Milford, clothier; Sir John Webb of Great Canford, who has estates at Sopley and Christchurch; Rebecca Edwards of Longham, widow; Martin Biddlecombe ofMerryton, farmer; Winefride Hammondof Brook; Thomas Lovatt, husbandman ; John Morrice of Fawley, mariner; John Mackrell of Benfield , Dorset, who has an estate at Milton; Alexander King of Hurn; Lord Arundell of Wardour, who has the Manor of Ringwood ; Amy Bloomer of Crow , Ringwood, widow, andthreesons ; Martin Hounshill ofRingwood, brazier, wife and two sons; and Mary Lewen of Crow , widow , and two daughters (Eng. Cath Nonjurors, pp 232-40) All of these were of, or connected with, the Sopley area, and the names of descendants of several of them occurin the Registers. One of them, Sir John Webb, carried on the traditions of the Catholic gentry byhousing a priest and providing for the spiritual welfare of Catholics in the neighbourhood
BishopChallonervisited this area on 5-7 July 1741. In his Notes he describes the Mission as " Pennington and Avon." This suggests that there were once two chaplaincies here, now united under the care of a single priest The two dates given by the BishopforConfirmation, 18 on 5 July and 21 on 7 July, lead to the same conclusionthat he was at Pennington, a hamlet close to Lymington, on the former
* Miss Sharp says that his house at Winkton was the Manor House , now destroyed, known as "Akers "
The Rev. Francis Perkins, priest at Petersfield, died 13 March 1760 , aged 90. He was of this family. He took the oath at Douay 15 August 1689 and was in Sussex or Hants in 1695, andin Sussex 1702. In 1769, whenJohn Perkins, the last Squireof Ufton, died, James Perkins unsuccessfullyclaimed the estates (see Frederic Turner, A Berkshire Bachelor's Diary, Newbury, 1936) It is not certain that he was a Catholic His monumental inscription, and his son's , are written in Latin
Martin Hounshill, born 1718, sonofMartinHounshill, brazier, of Ringwood, and his wife, Elizabeth Hunt,was educatedat TwyfordSchooland the English College , Lisbon, where he was ordained priest 27th March 1742 (Gillow , Register ofLisbon College, p. 218)
date, and at Avon, * a small place on the river of the same name just above Sopley, on the latter The Philpotts, Tichbornes and Arundells owned property in the vicinity of Pennington In recent years a little more evidence has come to light showing the existence of Catholic families around Milford and Pennington, among whom the shadowyform of Father Paul Atkinson, O.F.M., seems to move. We find that threefamilies, all Catholics , succeededeach otheratEvertonSteptoe, White and Lacytheir occupation extendingfrom the days of Charles II down to the beginning of the nineteenth century.
In 1666 John Steptoe owned a messuage and twenty-six acres at Evelton, at which time George Carew owned Keyhaven; William Mackarell, Ashley and a part of New Milton; and Henry Philpott Lower Pennington The Steptoe property at Evelton passedpresumablyby marriageto the Whites In 1716 Richard Whitereturns his property as a Catholic Nonjuror (Eng. Cath. Nonjurors, p 233). In Milford Churchyard his stone is still just decipherable He died 4 September 1727, aged 80, and his wife, Elizabeth, was 50 at her death on 22 March 1711. In Old Times Revisited in Borough andParish of Lymington, p 276 (Lymington, 1879), a formerMayorofLymington, Mr. Edward King, says, "I have reason to believe that Fr. Paul Atkinson ... was attached to their [the White's] private chapel and family as priest and tutor, " and again "Hurst was only a short distance from the Salt Works at Pennington belongingto the White family, and it is well known that he was allowedto meetfriends at an intermediate house at Keyhaven where, under the ostensible plea of social intercourse, the quiet exercise of his priestly functions was connived at for many years " After the Whites came the Lacys, who are first mentioned as owners of property in 1725. Thereis Mr. William Lacy and Mr. Richard White Lacy, which seems to prove some marriage relationship between the Whites and the Lacys. The tombs of both are situated beside the White tomb.
From the Milford Record Society's journal, The Milford Record (I, No. 3, 1910), we learn that the Churchwardens ' accounts ofMilford mention the Lacys many times as paying Church Rates for Everton §
* Avon and Pennington are some ten miles apart " as the crow flies . " As regards the other places named, the distance from Sopley of Beaulieu is 15 miles; ofAvon Tyrrell 2 miles ; of Canford 7 ; of Hampreston 6 ; of Stapehill 6 ; of Pennington 10 ; of Lymington 10 ; of Christchurch 2 ; of Burton 2. Everton is 1 miles from Pennington and Milfordis 2 .
John Steptoe in 1667 left all his lands at Milford and Keyhaven to Amy and Olive Bernard fortheir lifetime, and afterwards to theCorporation of Southampton on trust that they should apply one third of the rents for the relief of the poor and lend the remainder in sums of £10 to young beginners " in the town, free of interest.
Healsoleft £100 on trust to pay £2 a year to the Minister ofAll Saints' for quarterly sermons, and £3 yearlyfor sixty poor persons of All Saints' parish
By the middle of the nineteenth century Steptoe's Charity consistedof forty-nine acres at Fawley and Yeovilton, let at £60 a year Sums of £20 were at that time lent to industrious young tradesmen, but a large portion ofthe loan fund had been lost by failures of principals and bondsmen All of which seems to arguethat theSteptoes had conformed , at leastoutwardly, possibly to save their property.Communicated by Mr. Ernest G. Ash of Lymington
Hurst Castle , where Fr. Paul Atkinson was imprisoned. § Everton, otherwise Yelverton, Yeovilton, Evelton, Evilton
(or 'Evilton' as they spelt it). The first mention of the family is in 1725. They also paid for " late Olliver's, " the entrybeing" Mr Lacy. " In 1744-5 Mr. RichardWhiteLacy* pays for Everton andMr.William Lacy for " late Olliver's," the latter being situated near the sharp bend of the road leading from Milford to Lymington, just beyond Everton Grange, and on the same side of the road. From that date until 1796 there is no further reference to Mr. William Lacy, but constant reference to Mr. Richard White Lacy, who appears to pay for both Everton and " late Olliver's " Mr. William Lacy owned a Saltern of ten pans, and Mr. Richard White Lacy one of three pans, at Pennington Marsh in 1743
About the year 1725 the Lacys came to live in Efford Cottage , on the main road between Everton and Lymington Father Paul Atkinson, O.F.M., a prisoner in Hurst Castle since 1699, used to say Mass at Efford Cottage. He stayed the night at the VormansatEverton as their house was less conspicuous than the Lacys' . In 1920a Mrs. Shepherd, aged 70, was living in the Vormans ' cottage, which was still standing, though enlarged There are two accounts of Mrs. Shepherd's storythe one by Mr. W. Ravenscroft , F.S.A. , in The Milford Record (August, 1919), the other by E. M. Harting in the Franciscan Monthly (January and March, 1920) Mrs. Shepherd had a great-grandmother who had died circa 1869, aged 96. This old lady had often told of the priest's comingto the cottage , having heardthe story from her own grandmother, a Mrs. Sims § Mrs. Sims's first husband was a sailor, but she married a second time a German named Vorman, also said to be a sailor There were no children of the second marriage. Mrs. Sims used to assert that " Fr. Paul, a dark, tonsured man , once said Mass onthe steps of what is nowthe ChurchyardCross at Milford. There was then no crossonly the steps and baseand at these he said Mass This was at 7 a.m. Vorman, beinga Catholic, was present, also some others .... Fr. Atkinson is said to have got out from Hurst and to have sleptfive nightsin Mrs. Shepherd's cottage, breakfastingin a parlour at the northend , since blowndownin a great gale. " A great ado was made over this escapadewhen it was reported to the authorities and with much delicacy of feeling Fr. Atkinson is said to have remained ever afterwards in his cell rather than compromise his good friend the Governor .
Mr. Edward King gives, in the book mentioned above (p 277), an extract from a private letter written by Mrs. C. Steer (née Kitty
* Western Gazette, 9 July 1745: " On Saturday last was married at Lymington , Richard White Lacy Esq., a young gentleman of large estate near that town, who is lately come of age, to Miss Stafford, daughter ofthe late John Stafford Esq of Southampton, a beautiful young lady, worth £4000 " This was his first marriage.
In 1730 a William Lacy was the owner and occupier of an estate at Everton worth £300 a year, and he had five or six children A WilliamLacy died in 1749 , aged 61 (see M.I., infra).
Sixteen weeks' boiling was the general season average, and eachpan made about three tons of salt per week, burning nineteen bushels of coal for each ton A drift or turn took eight hours, after which the pan had tobe cooled , emptied and cleaned Sixteen drifts made a week's work, which extendedfrom Sundaynight to Saturday morning (Edward King, Old Times Revisited, pp 199-200)

Richard Warner, and afterwards by Dr. Milner * accordingto the Rites of the Catholic Church; I suppose at Yelverton House, as there was a chapel in the house, and Mr. Greenwood was the priest I was born (in Lymington) at a house (nearly) opposite the Angel Inn, occupied by the three Miss Shepherds My mother died there (æt 28) and was buried with her father and mother in Milford churchyard Southey wrote my grandfather's epitaph and one on the death of my mother M.

I recollecther. "
The Milford Record (I, No. 3, 1910) also shows that there was a Catholic school at Milford A court case known as the Penny Trial concerned the Penny Charity of Milford. Thomas Penny of Milford by his will dated 1696 left the income of certain properties to be distributed to the poor of Milford annually. In 1731 certain parishioners wished to found a school with the money The scheme was opposed by " MrWmLacy gentleman" and others. The affair was carried to the Court of Chancery and went on for three years till 1735
James Thorne, the Parish Clerk of Milford, deposed, among other things, that there was a school in Milford carried on by a Roman Catholic to teach children reading, writing and arithmetic. Thomas Godwin of Milford, gentleman , deposed that Milford already had two schoolsone kept by " one Lane, a notorious sot, " and the other by " W. Matthews, a reputed Papist. " §
As for Avon, Sir John Webb of Canford, Dorset, owned the Manor of Avon Tyrrell and supported a chaplain there.
In his 1741 Visitation Bishop Challonerrecords that the congregation at Pennington and Avon numbered about two hundred, and
* The Rev. John Milner was at Yelverton in October 1793 , as an entry in the Winchester Register shows: " Die 23 Octobris 1793, apud Yevelton prope Lymington Baptisatus est à me, cæremoniis omissis, Gulielmus filius Jacobi & [Ignoti & casu inventi erant a lateraddition]"given in a mutilated form in C.R.S. , i, 184. No marriageis, however, mentioned

From the obituarylist, printed with the Registers below , we know that her mother died in March 1799, a week after Kitty's birth (but shewas buried at Milford, and not at Lymingtonas the obituary list says)
§Much of the foregoing information relates to Lymington parish and is supplementary to the Historical Introductionto the Lymington Registers published in C.R.S. , xiv, 295 sqq
Iam indebted to Mr. Ernest G. Ash of Lymington for many details given above
higher up on the same page, under the name of the priest, Frankland, gives one hundred and twentycommunicants (E. H. Burton, Life and Times ofBishopChalloner, i, 148 *). How longthe Rev .. Frankland had been there or how long he remained we do not know. In the Register of Lisbon College a John Frankland, alias orvereMoyes,isshown as being ordained at Lisbon between 1723 and 1727, in which year he was sent to England (pp. 198-9). Mr. Gillow places him at Brockhampton, Havant, in 1734, although there is no evidence for this in the Brockhampton Registers, and says that he died in London 16 July 1752. Inthe Old ChapterObituary the deathof a Rev. George Frankland is given in London 1 August 1752 (C.R.S., xii, 8). Forour information of the next priests, and also of the fact that the Mission was moved from Avon to Sopley, we are indebted to the Rev. John Philip Betts, who kept the accounts for the Hampshire Missions. In the Hampshire Ledger (supra, p 55) he records that he paid a guinea from theRobert Hyde, or Hills, Fund to"MrMilner towardshisexpence of changinghis quartersfrom Avon to Sopley " This wasin August 1753. He was the Rev.John Milner who went to Douay on 18 August 1736. He must not be confused with Bishop Milneras the compiler of the Index of C.R.S. vol xxviii has confused him . The Bishopwas not born until 1752. The Rev. John Milner left Douay, inPhilosophy, 16 June 1744; was admitted to theEnglishCollege, Lisbon, 12December 1746, andwas ordained31 May 1749. Heleftforthe Mission28 January 1750 (Gillow, Register of Lisbon College, p 231) It is possible that this was his first mission and that he remaineduntil 1757, from which year until at leastthe end of 1758hewas the priest at Cowdray(C.R.S., i, 250) He died in London 30 July 1782 (C.R.S., xii, 21). He was succeeded, presumably, by the Rev. Mr. Barnwell, for in August 1758 the Rev. John Philip Betts pays him a guinea for" attendanceatand near Southampton, " and when, in September 1760 , he pays him four guineas, which fall due 25 February 1761 , for the same reason , he becomes " Mr Barnwell in the New Forest." A final payment oftwo guineas "in full of all demands " is made to him in August 1761 , § at which date, it may be presumed , he left Sopley (cf. Hampshire Ledger, supra , p 59) He is difficult to identify He may possibly be the Irish priest, the Rev. John Barnwell, whose death is recordedat Kingscliff, Lincolnshire, on 11 February 1782 (C.R.S., xii,
* A photographic copy of the page containing Bishop Challoner'sentry concerning Pennington and Avon is given, facing p. 148.
Is this perhaps a slip for Avon ?
Possibly the change was caused by the sale of the Webb property . Sir John Webb was an ardent Jacobite and was in trouble in 1745 , inwhich year also he died at Aix-la-Chapelle According to the Vict County Hist ofHampshiretheManor of Avon was sold in 1772. The Chapel, andpossibly the priest's residence, had been at Springfield House , Avon In 1753 the priest moved to Sopley, to a house belonging to Sir Thomas Webb. § Betts's accountsmakeitclearthatfrom1758 to 1761 the priestsofSopley also served Padwell, Southampton TheRev.J. P. Betts'slastentryconcerning Sopley and his sole mention of the Rev. Mr. Flanaganruns: " To Mr Talbot [Bishop James Talbot] for Mr Nolan's [priest at Gosport] attendance at Southampton in the room ofMr Flanogan deceased £1.1.0 , " from which it is clear that Mr. Flanagan served Southampton and that Mr. Betts either forgot to pay him for doing so or else forgot to enter it.
21). His successorwas, inalllikelihood, the Rev.. Flanagan, whose existence was made known through the recollections of an aged parishioner, Mr. Argyle, who wrote the following account, about 1872 , at the request of the Rev. H. Van Doorne (priest at Christchurchin 1872).
"It was of tradition that the Catholics of Christchurch and its vicinity, used to assemble at Springfield House, Avon, opposite to Court House and Farm, now belonging to Fane Esq . Within the memory of many the Font was in a room near the river, § but this was, within a few years, pulled down: the house was of stone and ancient: some of the materials of the walls forms [sic] the present smithy ofAvon In 1768 , December 21st the Priest's house at Sopley (the last house in the lane leadingfrom Sopley to Ripley) was burnt, and the Priest, by name, Revd Mr Flanagan perished also: he appears to have come downstairs, when, near the bottom, a burning beam fell uponhim: this was near the present doorat backofhouse. His remains were dug out and interred in Sopley Churchyard It was not rebuilt for some time, andthe Catholics went to Stapehill or to CanfordHouse , the residence of Sir T. Webb . OccasionallyMasswas said at MrClapcott's Mark Argyle, one of the congregationwent and asked Sir J. Webb to send a Priest, the house was rebuilt and Revd Mr Parker was the first Priest that lived at Sopleyafter this sad event Thenames of the congregation : Biddlecombs , farmer, living at an old house called White's now standing, south of Sopley Church: the land to thisfarm is now sold off &c: Blacklocks, Clapcotts (carpenters ), Drapers , Haines , carpenter to Sir J. Webb, Mrs Wilmot (mother of Mrs Daw), Gayler, an old Irish lace maker, Bishops, labourers ; Argyles (Christchurch, shoemakers), Chapples, Dawes of Wick, Bloomer of Wick, Trevis of Christchurch.
" This Revd Mr Parker obtained for Clapcotts the redemption of a mortgage to Mr Willis of Ringwood, who would not give it up Mr. Clapcott tried the law, but to no purpose Revd Mr Parker asked Mr. Clapcott if he would allow him to see what could be done in thematter: the permission being willingly granted, he went to London, put it in a friend's hands and it was soon settled to Mr Clapcott's satisfaction.
" To Revd Mr Parker succeeded Revd Mr Greenwell : he lived some time at Sopley, but eventually removed to Christchurch living with Mrs Daw's at a house now occupied byMr Ibert EverySunday andHolyday he walkedto Sopley to say Mass His deathwas occasioned by mortification brought on by wearing a tight shoe, his toe became

At this period there were three Irish priests working in Hampshire- the Rev. Patrick Savage at Winchester, the Rev. James Nolan at Gosport, and the Rev. Flanagan at Sopleyfor none of whom can any details be found . On examining a number of Registers it is curious to note how priests from the same college follow one another on a Mission , or group together in the samearea
The original MS. is in the Archives of the Catholic Church at Christchurch The MS. was first brought to Bishop King's notice by Canon D.

To him succeeded the Revd Mr Beni a French Priest, after him a Revd Mr Chantittour who lodged with Mr Jno Godden , Coachman to Walcott Esq at Winkton. The Stapehill nuns with their Superioress, Madame Chaban, driven from France, came to Burton House ; they did not remain long but passed over to their present residence Sir T. Moore with Lady Mannockhisniece then came to Burton House § His Priest, Revd MrVial said Mass at Sopley. Revd Mr Cochet, a French emigrant Priest, came on Sundays and Holydays from Stapehill to say Mass, returning again to Stapehill "After a few years, by the assistance of Lady Mannock,** he purchased of a family by name Howe at Burton Green, the house garden, now the site of the present Chapel House The Chapelwas begun in 1810 , In 1811 it was opened by Bishop Poynter Revd Mr Cochet seized with paralysis so as to be obliged to have assistance when saying Mass [returned to France] where he recovered health , lived some years and died in 1830. Sir T. More died at BurtonHouse and was buried at Stapehill, LadyMannock at Endless St, Salisbury. She left £300 to the Mission at Burton. Names of Congregation : Howes , Joys, Vineys , Pitmans, Peckfords , Read, Argyles, Blacklocks & Mrs Lacey"
On 13 February 1933 the present Bishop of Portsmouth visited Sopley. " Walking from Purewell [Christchurch] I came to Burton where a cottager told me I would find the old Catholic Churchon the Green and now a Congregational Chapel Whether this is so or not I cannot say, but my companion (the Rev. F. Pinkman) and myself rather fancied an old school near at hand as the more likely building, and our opinion was confirmedby the occupant of the Priest's House at Sopley, later on, who stated categorically that the old school was the real place We called on the Rector of Sopley who very kindly took us into his church and brought out the Burial Register There we found, at the end of 1765 , this entry:
Mr- Flanagan December the 23d Under 1802 was the entry: 'John Greenwell , Romish Priest, November 27th'
* Query: Recte Besnée ?
Recte Abbé Pierre Chantelou or Chanteloup.
"In 1802 Henry, the eighth Lord Arundell afforded a refuge here to MadameRosalieAugustin de Chabannes , a ladyofthe highest merit, and her religious community de la SainteCroix de Notre Damede la Trappe" (Oliver , Collections , p 42)
§ Sir ThomasMoorewas the sixthandlast baronet ofthe CatholicFamily of the Moores of Fawley, Berks His sister, Anastasia, had married Mark Browne of the family of Montague of Cowdrayand a daughter, also Anastasia, became the second wife of Sir Thomas Mannock, Bart She was now a widow and lived with her uncle
Recte Abbé Gilles Viel
** Sir ThomasMoore died 10 April 1807, before the BurtonChapel was commenced . He was buried in the old chapel of Stapehill (now the Nuns' Refectory). His niece, Lady Mannock, was still at Burtonwhen thebuilding of the Chapel began, but migrated to Henley in 1812 , which was her home till her death, 17 April 1814. TheDirectorygives the place ofdeathas Windsor , not Salisbury.
and next to him:
'William Perkins of Winkton ' *
"We then went to the Priest's House ' (still so called) in Priest's Lane,' the occupants of whichthey were Methodistsaccording tothe Rectorgave us a cordial welcome. Thewife showed us overthehouse . In the kitchen, on the left hand side of the fireplace , was an alcove , in the floor of which was a circular hole with a grating at the bottom This, she declared , was where the priest made his wafers "Her bedroom , she stated , was evidently the place where Masswas said . A tiny niche inside the door might easily have been the holy water stoup. At the head ofthe bed there had been, originally, folding doors which led into another room which apparently contained the altar. The stairs to the upper floor descend to the ground outsidethe back door of the kitchen "
The first priest at Sopley was then the Rev. Mr Parker. It is not easy to identifyhim There are three Parkers in the Valladolid College Registers, but all three became Jesuits. The Sopley Mr. Parker would seem to be the Rev. Francis Parker, educated in Paris, who died in September 1779 (C.R.S., xii, 14). There is a strong probability that the three Irish priests mentioned above were also educated in Paris, and it is therefore likely, as also noted above, that the Rev. Francis Parker followed the Rev. -. Flanagan
The Rev. John Baptist Greenwell was the next priest. He was the son of John Greenwell and Catherine (Wilkinson), born in London 24 June 1750, who took the oath at Douay He left Douay to go to Nieuport to become a Carthusian 18 April 1771, but returnedto Douay 6 June 1772. He was ordainedsubdeacon 21 December 1776, deacon 15 March 1777 and priest 19 December 1777. After ordination he remainedat Douay as a Minor Professor until 17 May 1779 , when he left for England (Canon Burton's MSS , Priests in Penal Times, File III, FG-H, Westminster Archives). If he succeeded the Rev. Mr. Parker circa 1779 he may have been about eighteen years at Sopley, for it was the death of Sir John Webb, 5th Baronet, in 1779 , which affected the priest and people of Sopley. The title passed to his nephew Sir Thomas, 6th and last Baronet, who appears to have ceased to support the Mission Hence the Rev. John Greenwell had to leave his house and lodge with a parishioner in Christchurch. He died 24 November 1802, as the Prayer Book obituary given below shows , though his age is given as 53. A belated obituary notice appeared in the Directory for 1805 (C.R.S., xii, 88).
*" In Christchurch Priory we found a monument to some ofthe Perkins family It read : 'MemoriæsacrumMartha Jacobi Perkins armigeris uxoris delectissimæ , quæ ex hac vita ærumnosa placide pieque emigravit secundo die Decembris anno( domini 1749 ætatis 46
'Juxta obdormiscit in Christo Jacobus Perkinsarmiger Mortuusestvigesimo die mensis Martii anno Domini 1772 ætatis 79
'Sub eodem marmore positæ sunt reliquiæ Edmundi Perkins armigeris, eorumquefilii natu maximi, omnibus cari sub carissimi, qui vixit annos heu paucos non defletus : obiit 5 die Martii mensis anno ætatis 47 Christi 1773'”
These outside stairs were a feature of many of these early "Upper Room" chapels .

The next priests were French refugees Mr. Argyle's "Mr Beni" is difficultto identify. He may possiblybe the Abbé Besnée, a Canon of Laon Cathedral , who was in Jersey in 1796 (Canon F. X. Plasse , Le Clergé Français Réfugié en Angleterre, ii, 437) "Mr Chantittour" is the Abbé Pierre Chantelou, who was there in 1803. An Abbé Pierre Chantelou had been vicaire at Craon, arrondissement Château-Gontier , departement Mayenne He embarked at Granville 15 September 1792 , then aged 29. He is no doubt the Abbé Pierre Chanteloupmentioned by Dr. Oliver (Collections, pp 185, 262), who became the incumbent of Taunton from 1830 to 1833, leaving the English Mission in the November of 1833. The date of his death has not been ascertained He was followed by the Abbé Gilles (Aegidius) Viel, vicaire of St. Paterne -du-Buais in the diocese of Avranches , from 1806 to 1807. * In 1811 theAbbé Viel built the chapel in Holland Street, Kensington. He died 27 August 1823 (Plasse, ClergéFrançais Réfugié en Angleterre, II, 285, 286, 292, 411). The next priestwas the AbbéAlexandreCochet , of whom Dr. Oliver says (Collections) "an excellent French priest, who did duty for several years at Stapehill before he left for Sopley in 1811. I think he returned to France after the Restoration of the Bourbons." In the Stapehill Register (the transcript of which is given after the Sopley Register) the Abbé Cochet has made the following entry: " Alexander Cochet, Presbyter, successit Revdo Dño Jacobo Porter, Die 22 Decembris 1801 , " and he records baptisms therein from 1804 to June 1810. He said Mass on weekdays for thenuns at Stapehill, a Cistercian Fatherfrom LulworthridingoverfortheSundays (La Trappe in England , p. 98). He was the first priest at Burton Green He opened the Sopley Registers, writing in the baptisms performed by his two predecessors, and then entering his own from 1808 to 1816. Anappeal byhim forfundsfor a newchapel was inserted in the 1811 Directory: " To all CharitableChristians The poorCatholics of Sopley, Christchurchand its vicinity from time immemorial, through the generosityof a noble family, had enjoyed the happiness of having in the midst of them a missionary who procuredfor them the benefit and consolation of our holy religion But, being deprived of that comfort by the death of the last head of that family and the nearest Mission being situate 10 miles from them, they have with the approbation of their Bishop, the Rt Rev. Dr. Douglass, opened a subscription to enable them to support a chaplainand to build a Chapel The subscription having scarcely produced half the funds necessary, they humbly and earnestly solicit the charitable assistance of the nobility, gentry etc. Those who visit the commodious bathing place of Christchurch will reap the advantageof having divine service performedin that neighbourhood . .. . A second appeal, headed " Burton, New Chapel, near Christchurch, Hants, " appeared in the 1814 Directory after the building had been erected It was stated that" divine service is daily performed" in the new chapel and that a house had been erected for the residence of their Pastor, " but expenses for the purchase of the land, building, and maintenance of the priest exceeded the donations received ; hence this second appeal.
In 1817 the Rev. Joseph Stapleton was appointed to the Mission
* TheCistercian nunsresided at Burton House, kindly lentto them by Lady Mannockwhile their Convent at Stapehill was being made readyfor them, from January to October, 1802, and the Abbé Gilles Viel acted as their chaplain there (La Trappe in England, pp 91 , 96; London, 1937)
and remained until possibly1833. * From March 1819 to August 1820 the only entries in the Southampton Register, four in number, are by the Rev. Joseph Stapleton. During this period therefore he would seem to havehad charge of the SouthamptonMissionas well. He was educated at St. Edmund's College, Ware, having entered in 1800. He was ordained in 1809, and was on the staff at St. Edmund's until 1816 , being Prefect from 1810 to 1816 . After 1834 the Rev. Joseph Stapleton, according to Mr. Edward King (Old Times Revisited, p 178), became father-confessor to the Baroness de Feuchères at Bure Homage, nearChristchurch Mr. King says that the Baroness died in 1836 and that the Rev. J. Stapleton lived on at Bure till his own death, 27 August 1839, at the age of 55 , when he was buried in Lymington churchyard The Baroness did not die, however, until 15 December 1840. Sophie Dawes was the daughter of the oyster-catcher , pilot and smuggler, Dicky Dawes, of St. Helens, Isle ofWight, and Jane Callaway Jane Callawayand her children left the father and went to the Newport House of Industry, a workhouse run on novel and model lines Sophie passed via Portsmouth (theGeorge Hotel) to London, where shemettheDucde Bourbon , whose paramour she eventually became and reigned as the uncrowned queen of Chantilly A diplomatic. marriage was arranged with the unsuspecting Baron de Feuchères, who afterwards left her There were very strong suspicions that she at least engineered the Duc's murder in 1830. She inherited a considerable part of his fortune, returned to England in 1835 and built herself, or restored, a mansion at Bure Homage She had become a Catholic while in France , and apparently the Rev. J. Stapletonbecame her chaplainat Bure Homage till his deathin 1839. In 1838 her healthbegan tofail, and in the spring of 1840 she moved to London, dying there in the December of the same yearone author says "in the odour of sanctity"-showing at least signs of great piety.
The next priest was the Rev. Richard Kelly, from 1833 to 1836 He was born in London 7 September 1798, went to Old Hall in 1808 , and was ordained 30 September 1821 , leaving the College in the December of 1821 (apparently he went away during his course and returned in 1815 to finish it) He was at St. Patrick's, Soho, 1822-7;
* The last baptism is in 1831 , but the Rev. Laurence F. Allan, of St. Edmund's Collegeto whom I am indebted for details concerning many priestsinforms me that he is recorded as being at Burton from 1818 to 1834, after which there is no record of him until his death. The gap in his record is now filled in; but the Rev. Richard Kelly was at Burton Greenin 1833
For Sophie Dawes' story see Violette M. Montagu, Sophie Dawes , Queen of Chantilly (London, 1912), an unbiased and documentedaccountof her life particularlyin France; The Honble Mrs. StuartWortley's Sophy, The Winkle Picker (Christchurch, 1930), which gives the story more in form of a novel, and with the aid of presumably original letters stresses more her early life in the Isle of Wight, though it is difficult to decide whatis fact and what is fiction (Mrs. Wortley gives the father's name as James and the brother's as Dicky, and says that the place and date of Sophie'sdeath are not known); Marjorie Bowen, The Scandal of Sophie Dawes (London, 1934), which adds very little to the story and repeats much of Violette Montagu's account
They were married in Paris, and also at Spanish Place The entry in the Register for the latter marriage, 6 August 1818 , describes Sophie Dawes as a widow , born in London 29 September 1792: neither of these statements was true

Bermondsey, 1828-31; Burton Green, 1833-6; after which no further trace of him has so far been found
He was succeeded by the Rev. Laurence Joseph Byron, who was born in London 15 November 1800, entered Old Hall 16 July 1817 , and was ordained 20 September 1828. He left the College in 1829 , was at Tichborne, Hants, 1830-1; then comes a gap of six years; Burton Green, 1837-60 The 1861 Catholic Directory shows that there were two priests at Burton Green in 1860. Possibly the Rev. L. J. Byron was in failing health. This appears to be confirmed by the Directory of the following year, which gives his address as " 1 , Clyde Terrace, Bevois Hill, Southampton, " which is changed in the 1863 and subsequent Directories to "2, Anglesea Villas, Portswood , Southampton. " It is evident that he lived in retirement, for ill-health or other reasons , at Southamptonfrom 1861 to 1868. He died 26 July 1868 and was buried at Southampton In 1860 an assistantpriest was appointed, the Rev. M. P. Fannan, who baptized until May 1861 Both their names are given together in the 1861 Catholic Directory, but in the 1862edition the Rev.JohnMcDonaldis the incumbent His last baptism was in November 1863. In the 1866 Directoryhe is the priest at Lymington . The next priest was the Rev. BernardVan Reeth, who baptized from June 1864 to May 1871 . In 1866 the Mission was moved to Christchurchand Burton makes itsfinal appearance inthe 1867 Directoryas " served fromChristchurch. "
In the Christchurch Archives there is a water-colour (reproduced facing this page) on the back of which is written " The old house with Roman Catholic Chappel of SomerfordGrange about two miles from Christ Church Hants Now taken down"
This provides a puzzle which has not yet been solved.
The Victoria County History of Hampshire (v, 84) says that " SomerfordGrange, which was once the grange of the priorof Christchurch , was inhabited by John Draper, the last prior after the Dissolution It is now [1912] owned by the Rev. Gustavus Brander" It was acquired by Gustavus Brander in 1781 (v, 95), " who pulled down the old house and built a new one on its site It has descended in the Brander family." " The house built before 1787 by Gustavus Brander on the site ofthe priory was once inhabited by the Duke of Orleans, father of KingLouis Philippe" (v 85) * "
Another Somerford Grange is also mentioned (v, 95) In 1834 James Edward, second Earl of Malmesbury, exchanged my old tythe barn called Somerford Grange " for some land in Bure and Hurn belongingto John Spicer. " This was presumably the ancient manor-house of Somerford. " Wasthe chapel in the " old tythe barn"? And why was the chapel there?

AND EDITED
BY CANON R. E. SCANTLEBURY
Canford and Stapehill are not in Hampshire and belong to the present diocese of Plymouth, but, as will be seen by the Introductionto Sopley, they are closely connected with the latter Mission Therefore it was thought that the Registers of thesetwo Missions might well follow those of Sopley. I am grateful to the Rt. Rev. LadyAbbess of Holy Cross Abbey, Stapehill, for kindly lending me the Registers and for assistance in gathering facts connected with these Missions
33
CanfordandStapehill were both Jesuitresidences in the" College ' (or District) of St. Thomas of Canterbury, commonly known as "Mrs Hants," which covered the counties of Sussex, Wiltshire, Hampshire and Dorset
Canford, or Canford Magna, or Great Canford, is " a parish in the hundredofCogdean, division of Shaston, Dorset, 1 miles [southeast] from Wimborn Minster and 101 from London, near the river Stour " (A Topographical Dictionary of the United Kingdom , Benjamin Pitts Capper, London, 1813). 'Stapehill is situated in the Parish of Hamprestonin the Hundred of Cranborne, and was formerly included in the Manor of Hampreston, which belonged to the ArundellsofWardour from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century " (La Trappe in England, p 84, London, 1937) Stapehill lies a mile or so north-east ofCanford, two and a halfto three miles almost due east of Wimborne. " To the north stretched [in 1802] Hampreston Heath, to the east ParleyCommon andHerneCommon, whilesouthwardsacrossthe Stour the expanse of Canford Heath and Poole Heath lay between Stapehill and the coast, ten miles distant, where only a desolate line of sandbanks marked the site where the town of Bournemouth was to spring up in the latter half of the nineteenth century " (La Trappe, p. 85) So close together are Canford and Stapehill that a local legend of an underground passage connecting the two has persisted down to the present day. The Manor of Canfordwas purchased by Sir John Webb in 1611 , and that staunchCatholic family no doubt had theirresident chaplain from an early date, and Stapehill probably owes its origin to the same family (Oliver, Collections, p 52; La Trappe, pp 86, 88), but the long list ofrecusants in Hamprestonin 1592 (see Sopley Introduction) is evidence of a priest'spresencein the area atthatearlierdate
Brother Foley (Records S.J., v, 797; iii, 410-1) says thatthedate when the Society entered upon the Mission of Canford is uncertain , but that it must have been as early as 1658. Dr. Oliver, alluding to the secrecy of the Penal Days, says: " In vain have I attempted to
" (Collections ,
form out the list of incumbentsat . .. . Canford p. 177). Father Anthony Bonville, or Bovill (alias Terrill), who was born at Canford in 1621 , entered the English College, Rome , 4 December 1640, and gave the following biographical details ofhimself:"Iam the son of Humphrey and Maria Bonville, born at Canford in the county of Dorset, where I was brought up till my fifteenth year .... My parentsare ofvery high andillustrious families, although they are not at the present time rich or opulent My mother is a Catholic, my father was much estranged from the Catholic faith, but as I have lately heard by a letter from the Rev. Father Bennett, he now greatly desires to embrace the faith and law of Christ I have five brothersand one sister, allofwhom, exceptmy sister, were brought upin heresy;but Imyself, thanks be to God , with threeofmybrothers, was brought out of the darkness of heresy with the true and ever clear light of Christ,and the Catholic faith, by the assistance of the Rev. Fathers Bennett and Webb" (Foley, Records S.J. , iii, 420; cf. La Trappe, pp. 86-7) From this it would appear that Fathers Bennett and Webb were in this area in the 1630s, and the former also in the 1640s Father Thomas Bennett , S.J., vere Thomas Blackfan , was sent on the Missionin 1634 and died 10 December 1663/4. Father Webbis not so easily identified The only Jesuit of that nameDr. Oliver gives no secular named Webbwho fits in with the dates is Father Thomas Webb , a native of Gloucestershire, born 1575, but he is said to have spent the whole of his missionarylife, from 1621 to 1658 , in the College of St. Francis Xavier (North and South Wales District) (Foley, Records S.J., vii, 62, 824; iii, 410).
It is possible that the Rev. Charles Stafford, S.J., alias Charles Hills, was at Canford at some period after 1706 (Foley, Records S.J., vii, 727 , 911 ; C.R.S., xiii, 186 and notein this note Foley's reference ismisprinted 717, insteadof727). Heworkedin the HampshireDistrict for many years and was its Rector in 1708. He died at Ghent 29 February 1732 , aged 80. He may, therefore, have been at Canforduntil succeeded by Father Michael Jenison, S.J., who was chaplain to the Webb family at Canfordin 1724. He was a native of Durham , born 29 September 1655/6, entered the Society 7 September 1675 , wasordained 8 December 1683. In 1701 andfor many years he workedin theHants District, and diedat Watten 17 November1735 (Foley, RecordsS.J. , vii, 400; Oliver, Collections, p 336) The nextpriest recorded is Father Thomas Talbot, S.J., alias Mansell, who was at Canford before 1764 . He was born in Lancashire21 July 1717; studied at St. Omer; entered the Society in 1735, and was on the mission in London from 1764 till his death, 12 October 1799 (Foley, Records S.J., vii, 759; Oliver, Collections, p. 419) Brother Foley gives the Rev. George Clarkson at Canford in 1765(RecordsS.J., vii, 136) The Rev.JohnCouche, S.J., was also there, probably in the 1770s He was the son of William Couche and his wife , the daughter of Charles Hoskins, of Ibberton, Dorset, and was born at Tolfrey, near Fowey, in Cornwall, 14 April 1744; studied at St. Omer and entered the Society 7 December 1762. The last twenty-two years of hismissionarylife are said to have been spent
* Ordained priest in St. John Lateran's 16 March 1647; entered the Society 20 June 1647; died 11 October 1676 at Liège
C.R.S. , xiii, 178 , has among the Jesuit addresses " Mrs. Brook at Great Canford, " and a later hand has added " Jennison" above. See the page and notes in C.R.S. vol xiii
at Southend , Soberton , Hampshire , but he appears again at Stapehill, as stated below. He died at Greenwich 29 December 1813 (Foley, Records S.J. , vii, 177; Oliver, Collections, p 277).
InDecember 1794 Sir JohnWebband hisonly daughterandheiress, Lady Barbara, fifth countess of Shaftesbury , offered Canford House to the English Carmeliteor Teresian nuns from Hoogstraet. They had arrived in England on 13 July of that year and had lived at Friars Place, Acton, until the December With them from Belgium came the Belgian Jesuit Father, the Rev. Henry John Joris, S.J., whom Dr. Oliver callsJonis and says that his real name was George Henry John He was the son of Henry Joris and Joanna Catherine (Sientenoy) and was born in London 27 January 1733. Hestudiedunderthe Jesuits at Antwerp and was admitted to the Belgian Province 3 September 1752. He had been Director to the Teresian nuns at Hoogstraetfor many years and came with them to England in July, and to Canford in December, dying there 9 July 1796. His burial is recorded in the parish register on 12 July (Foley, Records S.J., vii, 409; Oliver, Collections, pp 140, 237; C.R.S., xii, 53)
" His successor is classed among the Jesuits by Dr. Oliver, and is given as 'ex S.J." in the obituary list, but he was disowned by Brother Foley, who says that he was a secular He was the Rev. Christopher Wright, who served Canford and the Teresian nuns until his death there 18 March 1799 (Foley, Records S.J., vii, 869; Oliver, Collections, p. 442; C.R.S., xii, 68) He was followed by the Rev. James Philip Bourgeois, S.J., whose alias was Beeston, who was born in French Flanders 5 January 1738. He was at Canford from 1799 till hisdeath 19 May 1801. * Two baptisms only were entered byhim , in July and November 1799. After his deathtwo more baptisms were entered, one in July 1801 by an Abbé Le Franc, and the second in January 1802 by the Abbé AlexandreCochet. It would seem therefore that the next priest, the Rev. James Willacy, did not arrive until early in 1802. No baptisms were recorded by him during his term of office. He was born in Lancashire in 1738, entered Douay 17 October 1749 , was ordained in 1762 and stayed on as Professor until 23 July 1764. Most probably he went straight to the school at StandonLordship, and after three years at Standon and two at Hare Street was appointed first Headmaster of Old Hall Green in 1769, a post he retained until 1792. During those twenty-three years he was also ParishPriest of Old Hall His last years, until his death 25 September 1805,were spent at CanfordHouse (C.R.S. , xii, 93; xxviii, 261 andnote; B.Ward, Hist of St. Edmund's College, pp 37-8, 332, 334; G. Oliver, Collections, pp 288, 437-8) The next priest was the former curé of St. Remi, in the diocese of Coutances, the Abbé Jacques Florentius Duval, who remained at Canfordtill his death, 30 March 1817 , at the age offifty-six (G. Oliver, Collections, p 288) Dr. Oliver says that he succeeded on the death of the Rev. James Willacy, but the Registers show that he was there earlier, probably during an illness of his predecessor , at least from August 1804. Another French priest followed, the Abbé Jean BaptisteMarest He was born at Tour de Ville 1 April
Dr. Oliver has 1811 as the year of his death (Collections, p 241), but says (pp 437-8) that Fr. Willacy, who died in 1805 , succeeded Fr. Beeston on the latter'sdeath Brother Foley (Records S.J., vii, 75) also gives 19 May 1811 as the date of death, but quotes two other accounts as giving 1800 and 1802. C.R.S. , xii, 78, gives the correct date, 19 May 1801
1768 and was ordainedin Winchesterin Whitsun week 1793, by the Bishop ofRodez Shortly afterwardshe was attachedtoLordArundell's family at Wardour, taking charge of the parishas well on theresignation of the Rev. E. Nihell, S.J., in 1801. There he remained until 26 July 1817. Atthat date, onaccountofinfirmities, he became director to the Carmelitenuns at Canford WhenLadyBarbarathe only child of Anthony Ashley, fifth Earl of Shaftesbury, by his wife Barbara (Webb)-married Francis Spenser Ponsonby (created Lord deMauleyin 1838) on 5 August 1814 , the Carmelite nuns were given ten yearsin which to vacateCanford House and find another residence. They left Canford thereforein September 1825. Sailing on the 14th, they reached Thorigny, between Cherbourg and Coutances, on the 24th , theAbbé Marest journeying with them. In September 1830 they moved to Valognes. The Abbé Marest , who went with them, remainedthere till his death , 3 February 1849 (G. Oliver, Collections, pp 141-2, 194 , 354, 385). After the nuns' departurethe MissionofCanfordwasunited to that of Stapehill, and Mass was said on Sundays at Canfordonly when Lady Barbara was in residence For this purpose one of the retired priests living as boarders at Stapehill would go over. Among the retired priests who lived there were the Abbé François Langlois, formerly priestat Southampton; theAbbéJacques Normand, mentioned below , who presided over the electionofthe Prioress, as BishopCollingridge's delegate, in 1827 , and at the same time made a Canonical Visitation ; and the Rev. Richard Towers, O.S.B., who died there 10 March 1844. All three are buried in the cemetery at Stapehill (La Trappe, pp. 129-30)
A visit of the Franciscan nuns at Winchesterto the nuns atCanford and Stapehill, in 1807, is described in C.R.S., xxiv, 101 .
.
Of Stapehill Brother Foley says "This place will ever be one of greatinterest to the members of the English Province Its secluded position made it a place of resort for the Fathers of the District, who were enabled to maintain a school here in secret during the penal times . Many of them also are interred in its burial ground" --but one of the Cistercian community later wrote " No trace of their tombs is to be found " (Foley, Records S.J. , v, 817-8; La Trappe, p. 88; G. Oliver, Collections, p 42) In later years, apparently towards the end of the seventeenth century, the annual meetings of the College of St. Thomas of Canterbury were regularly held at Stapehill. In 1721 Henry Lord Arundell gave a lease of Stapehill valued at £30, and in 1736a memorandum states " The good gentlemanat Stapehill to have £5 per annum for the assisting at Odstock" (Foley, Records S.J., v, 789n , 814n).
Few details are available of the earlier priests who served this Mission Father Thomas Bennett , S.J., has already been recorded as being somewhere in this area in the 1630s and 1640s. There is a possibilitythat FatherJohnRobinson , S.J., alias Taylor, alias Valentine Upsall, was in the districtafter 1655. He was born between 1598 and * CanonPlasse gives Coutances as his diocese (Le Clergé Français Réfugié en Angleterre , ii, 414)
Probably derived from Steep Hill
Dr. Oliver quotesanamusingandbigotedaccountof this school, loc. cit
1600, the son of John Robinson of Upsall Castle, Yorkshire, and entered the English College, Rome, 13 October 1616. He received all the Minor Orders in 1617 and entered the Society in 1620. Sent on the Mission in 1628 , he workedin the Durham and Yorkshire Districts, being twice arrestedin 1628 and 1652. After his release the second time he worked in the Yorkshire and Hampshire Districts, dying in the latter 20 September 1675. A relic belongingto him is still preserved in the Abbey at Stapehill, which suggests a possible connexion with thisMission (Foley, Records S.J., vii, 658-9 ; C.R.S., xxxvii, 178; La Trappe in England, pp 86-7) The earliest recorded Missioner is Father Michael Jenison , S.J., from 1686to 1690. He has alreadybeen mentioned above as being at Canford in 1724. Brother Foley does not recordhis stay at Stapehill, but the dates are given by the author of La Trappein England(p. 87). * From that time onwards Stapehill was served regularly by the Jesuits and their small school maintained here
An article in The Rock (the magazine of St. Peter's School, Southbourne, December 1942) says " there is mention that Father Edward Poynes was teaching in this District, probably at Stapehill,' from 1704 to 1706." Brother Foley does not give this Father in his list, and no authorityfor the above statement is quoted
The first name we have been able definitely to trace is that of the Rev. Charles Caryll, S.J., alias Cartiton, at Stapehillfrom 1738 to 1745. He was the son of Philip Caryll of Shipley, and was born in Sussex 10 October 1685. He entered the Society 7 September 1704. He died at Stapehill 12 June 1745 and was buried in Hampreston Church. He was succeeded by the Rev. Richard Caryll, S.J., son of John, the second Lord Caryll, who was first cousin to the Rev. Charles Caryll mentioned above Richard was born in Sussex 2 April 1692 and entered the Society 7 September 1711. From 1722 to 1724 hewas at Ladyholt under the name of Paul Kelly, from 1724 to 1727 at Bonham, and at Cheeseburn Grange, Newcastle -on-Tyne, from 1727 till hesucceeded at Stapehill, where he died 18 February 1750and was alsoburied in HamprestonChurch (Foley, Records S.J., iii, 534; vii, 122; G. Oliver, Collections, p 260; La Trappe, p 88)
The following Jesuit priests also served Stapehill, though their dates cannot be determined Father Hermenegild Carpenter, S.J., who was bornin Lillein February1702/3 and entered theSociety7September 1721. He died at Bury St. Edmunds 12 April 1770 (Foley, RecordsS.J. , vii, 116; G. Oliver, Collections, p 259) His period at Stapehill would be after 1746. Father Henry Brent, S.J., alias Aspinall, who wasborn in Lancashire 25 March 1715 , entered the Society 7 September 1734, and died at Irnham 9 January 1784 (Foley, Records S.J. , vii, 81; G. Oliver, Collections, p. 246). He must have been at Stapehill before the suppression of the Society , i.e. before 1773. FatherGeorgeClarkson, S.J., was sent toStapehillin 1770-1 . He was bornat Southhill, Chorley, 4 May 1739 , andjoined the Society 7 September 1758. He died at

Kelly's English Catholic Missions (p. 372), and must therefore be treated with reserve Mary, sister of the Rev. Charles Caryll's grandfather, married Sir John Webb of Canford (Foley, Records S.J., iii, 534, Caryll pedigree). See their M.I.s, supra, p 119
Southhill 5 November 1813 (Foley, Records S.J., vii, 136; G. Oliver, Collections, p. 263) At an unspecified date the Hon Father Robert Dormer, S.J., was also said to be there. He was born in Buckinghamshire 26 February 1726, entered the Society7 September 1743 , anddied at Wappenbury 4 May 1792 (Foley, Records S.J. , vii, 206; G. Oliver, Collections, pp. 115, 287) Dr. Oliver (Collections, pp 356-7) also places Father William Molyneux, S.J. , at Stapehill, though Brother Foley makes no mention of this Missionin his notice of the Father (Records S.J., vii, 516) He was born in Lancashire 1 February 1726, entered the Society7 September 1748, anddied at Bryn in Lancashire 30 April 1789 (C.R.S., xii, 31) We are on surer ground with Father James Porter, S.J., who dates the baptismal register from 18 May 1770though hisfirst baptism was in 1772. His last baptism was inAugust 1798 , but he countersigns a baptism in April 1799 by, judging from the writing, a French priest, the Abbé C. Maurice Father Porter's successordates his succession from 22 December 1801. James Porter was born in Belgium 9 November 1733 and entered the Society 7 September 1752. In 1763 he was in the Derby district and subsequently in Beckford, Gloucestershire, and Salisbury before comingto Stapehill. He died at Portico, near St. Helens, 28 March 1810 (Foley, Records S.J. , vii, 616; G. Oliver, Collections, p 385). His successor , the Abbé Alexandre Cochet, was here until 1811 , when he went to Sopley. Mother Augustin de Chabannes and three other Cistercian nuns disembarked at St. Catherine's Docks , London, in March 1801 . For ten months they lived at Blyth House, Brook Green , Hammersmith. They were anxiousto secure a place where they could receive assitance from monks of their own Order A small community ofsix Cistercian monks was established at Lulworth Park through the generosityofMr. Thomas Weld In 1796 they took possessionoftheir newly-built monasteryof St. Susan at Lulworth Some twenty miles to the north-east of the monastery, at Stapehill, was a smallproperty belonging toLordArundell ofWardour Thiswas givento theCistercian nuns . In January 1802 they removed to Burton House, kindly lent to them by Lady Mannock, and there the Abbé Gilles Viel acted as their chaplain On 21 October 1802 theynow nine in numberentered their monastery (later raised to the rank of Abbey) of the Holy Cross of Our Lady of La Trappe. On their arrivalat Stapehill the last Jesuit missioner was still in residence there, Father John Couche, S.J. Hethen moved to an old cottage known as the " Pilgrim's house, " or " Pilgrimage, " and lived on there for some time, withtwo pupils. During the week Mass was said by the Abbé AlexandreCochet , who went on Sundays to say Mass at Sopley Père Antoine, whose full name was Anne Nicolas Charles Saulnier de Beauregard, was their Confessor and rode over on horseback every Saturday from Lulworth, returning on the Monday. He was born in Joigny, Champagne, 20 August 1764. DoctoroftheSorbonne and Canon of Sens ,hewas ordained in 1789. He came to London in 1794 and entered the Cistercian community in June 1795. He was elected its fourth Prior in 1810, when he ceased to act as Confessor, and in 1813 was solemnly blessed as Abbotofthe monastery(newly raised to the dignity of anAbbeyby Pope Pius VII) in London by BishopPoynter, in August of that year He died at Melleray, near Nantes, 6 January 1839. One baptism by him is recorded in May 1807 (La Trappe in England, chaps viii, ix, x; G. Oliver, Collections, pp. 217, 407) The Cistercian monks sailed from
Weymouth on 10 July 1817 , and established themselves at Melleray in Brittany In the earliest account book at Stapehill Abbey the following agreement with the Abbé Cochet, in Mother Augustin de Chabannes's hand, can be read: "La Maison est engagée avec le Chapelain de Stape Hill a 20 Sterlin, que nos peres ont eu la bonté de chargé de payer jusqu a ce que la maison fut en etat de le faire En outre de fournir tous les ans 25 boisseaux de charbon et 2. 10s pour le reste de son chaufage quil se fournit comme il juge a propos. La maison n'est tenue qua lui charier ses tourbes et cela autant qu'elle aura des chevaux, un seul homme. C'est a lui a fournir les autres necessaires Cest les arrangements pris avec lui En presence du Reverend Pere Marie Bernard. R. P. J. Baptiste P Antoine et la Soeur Augustin On lui Blanchit son lingea lui seul a lui fournirtousles jours une pinte de lait chaud '
The Abbé Cochet, and his successor, lived in a small thatched cottage close to the chapel This was demolished after 1826 and the infirmary kitchen built on the site The Abbé André De Laportewas the successor (La Trappe, p 98; G. Oliver, Collections, p 384), andhe records the baptisms until August 1816, and one baptism in the Canford Register in June 1822. There are also two more baptisms by him in the Canford Registerin February and March 1826. These were after the departure of the Carmelite nuns and after the Registers had been handed over, and may therefore be of children in the Canford area
One baptism is recorded in February 1825 by the Abbé Jacques Normand He lived on at Stapehill till his death, at the age ofeightytwo, 14 January 1842 (La Trappe , p 130) Dr. Oliver (Collections, pp 190, 365) calls him Nicholas , says that he was of the diocese of Rouen, born 1 January 1760, and that he supplied in several places in the Midland District, was at Tor Abbey for a short while and retreated to Spetisbury before comingto Stapehill Père Palemon , vere Nicolas Rousselin, opened the new Register in 1817. He was ofa noble familyone account calls him Count Nicolas Rousselinborn at St. Maloin 1770. Attheoutbreakofthe Revolutionhe was anecclesiastical studentandwas thrownintothesameprisonin Parisas MotherAugustin de Chabannes On the deathof Robespierre he was released and made his way to Jersey, thence to Lulworth , where he began his novitiate in 1795. From 1810 to 1817 he was Confessor to the nuns Whenthe Cistercian monks leftfor France in 1817 he remained behindas resident chaplain at Stapehill, fulfilling that office till his death, 19 May 1851 . Dr. Oliver (Collections, p 441) says that a Cistercian Father Odillon (William Woolfrey) was assistant chaplain here after his ordination in 1827. He was born, presumablyat Lulworth , 8 October 1803. The Rev. William Young, styled by Dr. Oliver " one of the apostles of Cornwall" (p. 443), baptized here in May 1852. Père Palemon was succeeded byanotherCistercian , FatherFrancisAndrew Hawkins,who had first arrived to assist him in May 1840. He was born at Wardour in 1795 , entered Lulworthin 1808, went with the monks to France, as a novice , in 1817 , and was ordained at Nantes in 1822. It was he who collected the funds for the new church (La Trappe, pp 134-5). Two other Cistercians were living with Père Palemonat Stapehill in 1848 , Père Jean Baptiste, aged 80, and a young Irish priest, Father Francis Walsh, O . Cist The latter was here from 1845 to 1849. In May 1849 he was Prior of Mount Melleray, and in January 1850 went to America as Superiorofthe newly-foundedNewMelleray. In Decem-
ber 1847 a marriagewas entered by the Rev. Ralph Brindle (G. Oliver , Collections, pp 187, 248), and baptisms in 1854 by the Rev. J. B. Anderson, and in 1855 by the Rev. Richard L. Schofield. This last priest came in 1854 and stayed in the guest-house nearly eighteen months Father Andrew Hawkins remained at Stapehill till hisdeath , 1 May 1866 (La Trappe , p 153)
The following priests came to assist Father Andrew Hawkins: The Revv. William Young, in 1853.
Robert Smyth, O . Cist , for a few months in 1856. (He was there also in 1851, painting the Altar .La Trappe in England, p. 151.)

James Hayes, O . Cist , from Mount Melleray, 1878-1882.

The Canford Register (1796-1826)-Register No. 3 in this transcriptconsists ofthirty-eight pages of plain white paper, the first six and the last four pages of apparently different texture and size from the rest One leaf has been cut out after the first six pages, and ten leaves before the last four The whole has been stitched into rough, obviously home-made , dark brown cardboardcovers , and these cardboard covers have in turn been encased in a cover of loose white
paper, now much frayed, worn and darkened . It would seem that the 1804-26 portion of the Register has been sewn in as an inset to the earlier Register This would explain the statement at the end of the Register that " these two Registers were deliveredat Stapehill. The pages of the earlierRegister measure 6x4 inches , the pages of the inset6x4 inches "
This Canford Register is sandwiched between two other Registers, which have been stitched into the same covers to preserve them. In front is the Stapehill Register of the Rev. James Porter, S.J., from 1772 to 1799Register No. 1 in this transcript This is a thin notebook, withmarbled-paper covers, of eighteen pages, eachpagemeasuring 5x3 inches . It is entirely in the hand of the Rev. James Porter, except for the last entry. At the back is another Stapehill Register (1801-16)-Register No. 2 in this transcript. This is only halfa notebook, without covers The other half was apparently used for another purpose, and the leaves, seven in number, havebeen cut away, leaving a margin sufficient to hold the other seven leaves together Each page measures 6 x 33 inches The Rev. James Porter summarized the baptisms of his previous Register in its first pages It was then used bysuccessivepriests to recordtheirbaptisms . Register No. 4, i.e. Stapehill No. 3 (1817-56), is a vellum-covered volume, measuring7 x 6 inches, similar to those used in other Missions, e.g. Brockhampton, Gosportand Cowes The pages are of plain white paper, cash-ruled, and each page measures 7 x 6 inches None of these Registers is paginated; pagination has been supplied in this transcript. The last Register is carried to a late date, 1856, but the whole Registeris here transcribedin accordance with the Catholic Record Society'srule that Registers must be transcribed in their entirety.

The parish of Tichborne lies east of Winchester, in the centreof the Fawley Hundred, and rises from north to south from the valley through which the River Itchen wanders (Victoria County History of Hampshire , iii, 336 sq.). The family and the parish take their name from the Itchen Bourne
TichborneHouse lies to the east of the branch roadrunning north to Tichbornefrom the main Winchesterto New Alresford road. The presenthouse was built at the beginningof the last century to replace the Old House which had existed as early as Henry III's time.
Tichborne occupies a place in the Catholic history of Hampshire which is unique, for it has come down to us unchanged in its Penal Day dress of a chaplaincy, and of all the famous recusantfamilies in Hampshirethe Tichborne family alone has survived The historyof Tichborneis, therefore, the historyofthe family
The family was already there, as documents prove, by the twelfth century, and they may well have been there for a long time before the earliest writing. At the time of the Babington Plot, Chideock Tichborne claimed that the house descended from two hundredyears before the Conquest The famous" Tichborne Dole" is attributed to the twelfth-century " Crawl" of the Lady Mabilla Following the history of HampshireManors as given by the Victoria County History we find that their first extensionin property dates from about 1250 , when JohndeTichborneacquiredthe ManorofLimerstoneinthe West Medina of Wight [Isle of Wight] by marriage with Mabel, daughter and heiress of John de Limerstone That property remained with the familytill 1724. Soon after 1300 another John de Tichborneobtained Kempshott by his union withMargaret, heiress of Rogerde Sifrewast. Benjamin Tichborne sold this Manor in 1578. By 1337 the Manor of West Tisted came by the same means Richard and Walter , sons of Sir John Tichborne, married Alice and Agatha, the co-heiresses . For two centuries their descendants formed a separate branchand adopted the surname of Tisted, but by 1540 it had devolved upon four coheiresses , and the head of the Tichborne clan bought it back tothe family
The Lord of Tichborne in the closing years of the fifteenth century was John, Sheriff of Hants in the third year of Henry VII, andmarriedto Ann Mervyn (Berry [Hants Genealogies ] saysthat John's wife was Margaret, daughter and heiress of Richard Martin; the official Pedigree at Tichborne House is followed here) John was succeeded in 1498 by his son William, who died without issue, so that the next son , Nicholas, came into possession Other sons wereHenry (of Longwood) and Thomas . In the Visitation of St. Mary's Abbey, Winchester, in 1536, a Thomas Tichborne is mentioned as chaplain (Vic Co. Hist, ii, 124).
Nicholasmarried Ann, daughterof Robert White of South Warnborough. Berrygives their children as Bartholomew, Nicholas , Roger, William , Dorothy, Margaret and Dorothy Mrs. Ann died in 1519 , andis commemorated bya small plate in TichborneChurch Nicholas lived till 1540. His eldest son must have diedearlier, for Nicholas junior succeeded and was already of mature age when he came into possession Heappears tohave beenconsidered friendly toHenry VIII's policy, for we find a letter of John Kingsmill to Wriothesley in 1539, telling him to summonto the County Sessions "young NicholasTichborne " and others " as they are indifferent men" (Vic. Co. Hist, v, 336). Nicholasjunior was twice married. His first wife was Juliana, daughter of a London alderman, Henry Fenrother; his second was Elizabeth Rythe, of a good old Hampshirefamily and the sole heiress of her threebrothers. *
In the Winchester Presbytery there is a Latin Bible (printed Paris, 1526) which once belonged to Nicholas Tichborne. In it he entered, in Latin, " Mem . that on the 9th day of Octoberin the21st [? 11th] year of the reign of Henry VIII at [?] 6 in the afternoon , was born Francis Tichborne son of Nicholas Tichborne Junior."
AletterwrittenbySirHenry, 3rd Baronet, to his son is still extant at Stonyhurst (cf. Morris, Troubles of our Catholic Forefathers, vol i) In it he begins the story ofthe Tichbornes withthe Nicholasmentioned above , who wasfirst cousin to Peterof Portchester, Lionel of Sherfield English and Nicholasof HartleyMaudit By his first wife he hadthe son Francis whose birth is recorded above Of the second wife Sir Henry says " Your great great grandmother was of the family of Rythes, very ancientin these parts and bywhom we yet possess some lands . Her piety was the stay of our family in the Catholicfaithof our ancestors , andher prudence the supportofit in the greatestagonies ofour affairs and most dangerous symptoms of our decays, which her prudence restored again toits former healthandthrivingconstitution . " Atruly great encomium ! She is the 1577 Recusant Widow Tichborne ofWest Tisted in the footnote below. By the first marriagethere was also a daughter Juliana who married Thomas Cresswell. Nicholasdied in 1555 and his heir Francis in 1565, without issue Francis settled the estates for life on his widow, Joan, who, in 1571 , handed over her interest in them to Benjamin, the eldest son of Nicholas's largefamily by his second wife Besides Benjamin there were Gilbert, Ambrose, Martin, Jerome, and three (? four) daughtersAnn wife ofJohn Beconsawe, Jane wife of FrancisYate, and Constance wife ofRobert Knight The(?) fourthdaughterwas Mabelwho marriedJohnBeard ofAbberton , * The three brothers were Thomas , William and James. The lastnamed died in 1572. The two other brothers and the sister all appear as Recusants in Bishop Horne's list of 1577 (C.R.S., xxii, 40-1)"Thomas Rythe of Ropley " worth £300 in goods " William Rythe and his wifeof Totiord" worth £20 per annum in lands and £200 in goods "Mistress Tytchborne wedowe " of West Tisted worth £40 per annum in lands and £600 in goods. In the RecusantsRoll of 1592/3 there is mention of " Elizabeth Rythe of Selborne , widow" (C.R.S. , xviii, 289) The Tichborne family inherited the main portion of the Rytheproperty.
The Rev. John Churcher's name is also written in this Bible
Cf. article byMichaelTrappes-Lomax , "In the FootstepsofChalloner , " p 46, Westm Cath Chronicle , 1946. Sir Henry confused the generations in his old age. She was the great-grandmother
"
Sussex , and whose son, Ben Beard, acted as informer againsthis own kin in 1594 (cf. AmpleforthJournal, Spring, 1926) The list of "Influential Catholics " in 1574 ( C.R.S., xiii, 96) mentions Benjamin and Jerome (though the Editor practically denies Jerome's existence). Gilbert was thenabroad . None ofthebrothersappears in BishopHorne's list of Recusants in 1577 , though the mother's name is there. The official Tichborne Pedigree says that she died in 1576. Yet Cardinal Gasquet quotes a letter from her written in 1586 (Hants Recusants , p. 41). Though BishopHorne'slist does not include Benjamin, wefind Tichborne, Benjamin Tichbornegent and his wife " in a similar list, apparently in the 1580s(Canon St. G. K. Hyland, A Century ofPersecution, pp 316, 380) Gilbert Tichborneappears among the Recusants of 1592/3, but there is no mention of Benjamin It would seem that he found it necessary to make some show of conforming to save his estates. Brother Foley says of him (Records S.J., iii, 684n): " Mr. B. Tichbornewas a great favourer of Papists, and was himself suspected, not having been to the 'Lord's Supper ' for some years past; and Mrs. T., and others of his house, refused to go to church He gave warning to divers Catholics to fly fromthe diocese, who would otherwisehave been apprehended bythe savage Bishop." Sir Benjamin's* wife, Lady Amphyllis, was the daughterof Lord Chief Baron Weston Their sons were Richard, Walter, Benjamin and Henry, and their daughtersElizabeth, who married WilliamOwenAnn, who married William Brock (or Brooke)-and Amphyllis, who married William Gratwick. Sir Henry, the youngestson, settledin Ireland. Sir Benjamin, the third son , and his wife Margaret, are buried in West Tisted Church (" Hic infra jacet corpus Benjamini Tichborn Equitis : obiit 21 Aug. 1665. Requiescat in pace. " " Hic infraa lateredilecti viri suiBenjamini Tichborn Equitis jacet corpus De MargaritaeTichborn: obdormivit in DominoA.D. 1677. R.I.P.") The two elder sons, Richard andWalter, married two sisters, co-heiresses of RichardWhite ofAldershot, nephew to Bishop John White. Richard married Ellen and Walter Mary. Sir Walter and Mary lived at Aldershot, where they raised a very large family. Their eldest son, Benjamin, married Elizabeth heiress of Sir John Compton of Colemore Their son, Compton Tichborne, died in 1657/8 and left his property to the 3rd Baronet, Sir Henry, passing over hisownfather, whowas still alive ! The second son ofSir Walter , Francis, was the ancestor of Henry, who succeeded as 6th Baronet upon the failure of male heirs of the senior line
Gilbert Tichborne, Sir Benjamin's brother, was a sturdy Confessor of the Faith. He was expelledfrom the Inns of Court early in Elizabeth's reign and exiledto Flanders in 1573. In August 1580 he accompanied Laurence Vaux, § a Canon Regularof St.Augustine, to England, andthe pairwere arrested at Rochester and thrown into the Gatehouse Prison by Alymer, Bishopof London. LaurenceVaux diedintheClink in 1585 , but Gilbert would seem to have been released In 1592 he was again in trouble for voluntarilyhearingMass, and his smallestate
* He was the famous Sir Benjamin Tichborne. He and allhis four sons were knighted (Rev. T. C. Wilks, History ofHampshire, i, 367 , London,n.d.) Bro. Foley tells (Records S.J., iii, 647 sqq.) how Benjamin got his father-in-law on his side in a certain case concerningWilliam Pitts , who had been exhibitingCampion's Challenge
Her second husband was Sir ThomasTimperley. Cf. The Poor Souls' Friend, 1906-7; The Rambler , Dec., 1857
at Totford was taken to cover the fine of one hundred marksand he was put in prison In 1594 he was still in prison, in WinchesterCastle . After that we lose sight of him His stone records his death in 1636 at the age of 96% (C.R.S., xlii, 151 , M.I. No. 1)
Sir Richard, 2nd Baronet, son of Sir Benjamin and Gilbert's nephew, lost his wife, Ellen White, in 1606, and he then married Susan daughter of William Waller of Stoke Charity, who bore him three sons and two daughters Of these Ann married Charles Tasburgh and Elizabeth married her first cousin, James Phelyps, and apparently brought the Faith back to that family Richard § and John died before theirfather, who was succeeded bySir Henry, ** 3rd Baronet, in 1657. Sir Henry married LadyMaryArundell, daughterofWilliam Arundel, second son of Thomas 1st BaronofWardour, and was succeeded in turn by his son Sir Henry Joseph, 4th Baronet, from whom the title passed to Sir Henry Joseph's brother, Sir John Hermenegild , S.J. Upon Sir John Hermenegild'sdeathin 1748 the title passed to Henry, great-great-grandson of the Sir Walter mentioned above. This Sir Henry, the 6th Baronet, married Mary Blount, grandchild of the4th Baronet Their son, Sir Henry, the 7th Baronet, succeededin 1785. He married Elizabeth Plowden , who bore him a numerous family Three of their sons succeeded as the 8th, 9th and 10th Baronets

Very littleis known about the chaplains . Traces of their presence, however , are recorded " In the panelled rooms of the " Dower House at West Tisted " there remain some fine overmantelsof dark carved oak, twisting staircases ... . one leads to a priest's holewhich is now an ordinary room. What once was the Chapel is now used as a sittingroom; an archin the outsidewall has been blockedup: the altartable and a huge and ancient fourpost bedstead were sold by auction on the death of the last tenant" (D. H. M. Read, Highways and Byways in Hampshire , London, 1908) In the Chantry Chapel of the Tichborne Parish Church there is preserved " a wooden altar table of Elizabethan date and curiousproportions with a Latin cross in slight relief on the surface . It was secretly used to support a small stone super-altar for Mass in the 16th and 17th Centuries " (J. Charles Cox , Little Counties Guide to Hampshire) The Rev. T. C. Wilks, in his History ofHampshire, also says (ii, 17) that Tichborne Church is one of few English churches in which the ancientaltar remains : " At Titchborne, as at some other seats of old familiesprofessing the ancientfaith, the parish churchwas,withinthe memoryofliving persons, appropriatedinpart to the use of Roman Catholics of the neighbourhood , " and in a footnote the Editor adds "I cannot doubt the authority upon which I make this statement. " Ifthese statements are true, this issomething without parallel in Penal Days.
A priest named Fennellis said to be " atMr Tichborne'sin Hampshire " in March 1588 (C.R.S., xxii, 128) This may refer to Sherfield English, though much more probably to Tichborne. He was Simon Fennell, who was reported by Thomas Dodwell, the spy, in February 1583 or 1584 , as being shortly about to come to England, and who in 1586 was said to be in England (Foley, Records S.J., vi, 725, 730) Father Robert Parsons numbered among his studentsat Balliol College " Simon Fennell" (C.R.S., ii, 19) Simon Fennell was ordained at Laon on Whitsun Eve, 1583. He was still at large in Englandin 1594 whenthe informer, Ben Beard, reported that Fennell and Richards were continually at Mrs. Tichborne's house at West Tisted and that whenever the search grew dangerous they took refuge in Jerome Heath's house in Winchester The informer also statedthat John Shelley was in the habit of taking them round the country dressed in the livery of My Lord Montague , with the chains of office round their necks.
The first priest of whom we have any knowledge is Dr. Robert Tempest, S.J. There were two priests of the Tempest family, both named Robert, and both Doctorsthe one " of Law, " the other " of Divinity." Some confusionseems to have been caused bythe similarity in names , in Dodd's Church History, and apparently in a note in the C.R.S. vol xiii (p 117)
* No date of publication is given, but it was published during the incumbency of the Rev. Ignatius Collingridge at Winchester (1848-83), and nearly sixty years after the old house at Tichborne was pulled down Possibly Fr. Giles White. In May 1581 a young man named Richards went to Douay In February 1582 he was sent to Rome In August 1586 Giles White alias Richards returned to Rheims and receivedfaculties for the Mission in 1588.
Jerome was a schismatic, his wife, Averia, a Convicted Recusantin 1592/3 (C.R.S. , xviii, 287). Bl James Bird was captured in their house They afterwards went to live in Brussels (C.R.S., v, 394).
The elder Robert Tempest, born in co Durham, Doctor of Law , wentto Rheims in January 1584 (Knox , DouayDiaries, I-II, p 200); was ordainedthat year (ibid , p 12); went to Rome in January 1585 (ibid , p 203); was in Paris in 1590 during a famine (ibid , p 236); returned to the College at Rheims on 8 Novemberand succeeded Dr. Worthington as Procuratoratthe end ofthe year (ibid , p. 237) ; went to Douay in May 1593 (ibid , p 250) In the ThirdDouay Diary(C.R.S., vol x) we find him in Flanders , twicevisitingthe College fromAntwerp, in July 1599 (p. 7), and 17 June 1603 (p 51), on the second occasion to receive facultiesfortheMission Whenhe diedwe donotknow,butitwas seemingly before 1626, for his testamentary wishes regarding the College, to which he bequeathed property in Antwerp, are set out in C.R.S. xiii, 244-6
Therein his brother and nephew, William Tempest andWilliam's son Thomas , and another nephew, Henry Clifford, are mentioned. His nephew, Robert Tempest, * D.D., son ofMichaelTempest, born in County Durhamin 1563, entered the College at Rheims in 1584 from the Preparatory School at Eu (Knox, Douay Diaries, I-II, p 201) He appears to have been sent to Rome, for he returnsthence in ill health in October 1589, and was sent to Paris in the following January (ibid., p 227); returned in August (ibid , p 232) to teach logic (ibid. , p. 233); was ordained in Rheims Cathedral21 September 1591 ((ibid , p. 241) He visited Rome, returning in June 1600 , having visited his uncle in Antwerp before setting out for England (C.R.S., xiii, 22) He left for England 15 July 1601 (ibid , p 26) Roundabout 1612he was in prison Foley, whohas several referencesto him (Records S.J., ii, 141 ; iii, 266, 401 sqq., 718 ; v, 819 ; vii, 766-7), speaks ofa long imprisonment. Mrs. Bryan Stapleton(Oxfords. Post-Reform. Missions , p. 73) states that he suffered "a long, wellnigh thirty years, imprisonment for the Faith and when released he retired into Hampshire. " The accountin Foley (iii, 401), erroneous in other details, says that he was in prison from 1612 to 1614, in which year he joined the Society. It was in 1624 that he entered the Society, though the fact was apparently so little known that in 1632 he was rated among the secular clergy. In 1628he was working in London and in 1632 in the Hants District His last years were spent at Tichborne, where he probably died 13 July 1640, and was buried in a " churchyard never yet profaned by heretics, " an obvious allusionto St. James's Cemetery, Winchester . Gillow (Dict ofEng Cath , v, 464) says that Dom Thomas Vincent Sadler, O.S.B., was " probably Chaplain to Sir Henry Tichborne in Hants for sometime before 1657." This BenedictineFather dedicated his The Daily Exercise of the Devout Rosarists to Sir Henry in 1657 , and one wonders if this is Gillow's only proof of the chaplaincy. The next chaplain,in and before 1692, was the Rev.John Churcher (C.R.S., ix, 107; cf. xlii, 3) The Franciscans were also here apparently atthis time, and later, though Father Thaddeus in his Franciscans in England is vague about dates. He gives many details about Father Augustine Hill, O.S.F. , but does not say that he was at Tichborne Yet Gillow (op. cit , iii, 313) says "It was Fr Aug. Hill, O.S.F., who was chaplain to Sir Henry Tichborne, nearWinchester, andno doubt it is hisportrait which appears in the celebrated Tichborne-dole picture byTilbourg in 1670 , described in the key as ' No. 13, Rev. R. Hill, who died ata
* William Copley called Robert Tempest his cousin , though it is not clear which Robert is referred to (Records S.J. , iii, 404)
very advanced age, Sept. 14, 1692.' It is clear that the key was written long after the picture was painted, " hence the error in the initial Foley (v, 809 and note) asserts that the chaplain was the Rev. Robert Hutton, S.J., alias Robert Hill Gillow denies this identification, and asserts that Augustine Hill died at Tichborne 14 September 1692. The controversy is decided by the Old Chapter List drawn up by the Rev. John Ward in 1692. In it he states " MF Augustin Hill of the order ofSt. Francisof Assissium, resides constantly atSirHenry Tichbornes" (C.R.S., ix, 107) John Churcher andAugustineHillwere, therefore , at Tichbornetogether at this time. Father Thaddeus states that Father Paul of St. Francis (Matthew) Atkinson, O.S.F. (see supra, Sopley Introduction, p 90), "resided for a time at Tichborne. " This is sandwiched between statements referring to 1687 and 1698. We know that he came on the English Mission in 1687. A pencillednote in Mr. Joseph Gillow's copy of Thaddeus places Fr. Atkinson at Tichborne " some time after the Revolution of 1688." "
Thereis a long interval before the recordingof another chaplain's name Bishop Challonervisited Tichborne on 15 and 16 July 1741 , and therefound a congregation of 150 underthe Rev.Anthony Fetherstone , O.S.F. There is no Anthony Fetherstone in Franciscans in England nor in the Franciscan Obituary List (C.R.S., vol xxiv), but extracts from unpublishedpapers in the Franciscan Provincial Archives at East Bergholtkindly communicated by Father H. Docherty, O.F.M.show him to be a Franciscan A letterfrom Sir Henry Tichborne, dated 19 March 1740/1 and postmarked Alresford, " to Father Joseph Pulton, O.S.F., has a postscript: " My service to Mr Wright [the Banker]. Mr fetherstonedesires his to you." Thereare two letters from Father George Lancaster , O.S.F., at Grove Park In thefirst, dated 21 October 1730 and addressed apparently to the Provincial, he mentions that Featherstone has been over to see him and that he accompanied him back to Edgebaston . He thinks the scholars in the school are too advanced for Featherstone and that the latter might usefully be put to parish workin Edgebaston . A letter from Father Thomas Holmes , O.S.F. (no address), to the Provincial, Fr. Joseph Pulton, O.S.F. , dated 30 October 1730 , tells of difficulties with the Matron at the Edgebaston School, but that Mr. Featherstone hopes that the school will go on. The second letterfrom Fr.George Lancaster , O.S.F., at Grove Park, to the Provincial, Fr. Joseph Pulton, O.S.F., dated 2 December 1730, mentionsa visit he and Fr. Holmes had made to Edgebaston to pacify the Matron Fr. Featherstone told Fr. Lancasterthat he had pressinglyasked the Provincial to move him from Edgebaston , but would give no reasons Fr. Lancaster'sadvice isthat Fr. Featherstonebe moved, as he will continue to worry. Finally, there is a letter from Fr. Fetherstone himself, dated Edgebaston 8 March 1730/1 , to Fr. Pulton, the Provincial, remindingthe Provincial of the latter's promise soon to relieve him In accordance with the injunction ofthelast Chapterhe presents his accounts. He has" received £44 18.6, spent £39.18.0. " There is owing to him "from Lord Fauconberge £10 for half a year's salary when in Flint; from Mr Fox ofFredeshin inSalop£1 . 10.0; from Mrs Price ofLlanvilling£4.10.9. " Since his arrivalin England he has married one couple, baptized four persons and buried eight The letter is signed " B. Ant ffetherston. " There is evidence here that he had been stationed at Flint before 1731 .
* Neither Robert Hutton nor Augustine Hill was of a very advanced age in 1692. The former was born in 1629 , the latter in 1633 .
What the other two debts are for does not appear. It has been said that " Fetherstone" was an alias of Fr. Anthony Parkinson, Junior This seemsto be borneout by the dateofdeath Anthony Parkinson's death, by apoplexy, occurred on 18 March 1750 (C.R.S., xxiv, 309) Anthony Fetherstone's obit is given as 29 March 1750 (infra, p. 186). Thedifferenceof eleven days would be accounted forby the alteration in the Calendar, the Franciscan Obituary List giving the date in the Old Style and Sir Henry Tichbornein the New Style It is also noteworthy that Fr. Anthony Parkinson, Junior, was sent on the English Mission in 1729 or shortly afterwards (Thaddeus, p 282)
A little later two Franciscans were living there together, Father John Baptist Beaumont , O.S.F. (see supra, p 56), and Father Angelus Ravenhill, O.S.F. A list compiled by Father Felix Englefield places them at Tichbornein 1758, but the HampshireLedger shows that Fr. Beaumontwas therefrom at leastabout 1756 (see p 56) Annotations in Mr. Joseph Gillow's copy of Thaddeus give "Richard" as Fr. Ravenhill'schristian name and his obit as " 22 October 1792, at Lower Hall, Salmesbury"
Another gap occurs until 1785, the date ofthis Register , when the Rev. Francis Leigh was Chaplain He wastheson ofJames Leigh andhis wifeAnn (Halford) and was borninthe Midlands 20 April 1759. Hetookthe MissionOathat Douay 24 June 1779, before Richard Southworth, Vice-President and Professor of Theology and later priest at Brockhampton The earliest entry made by him in the Register is 3 May 1785, of a baptism administeredby the Rev. George Bruning, S.J., in the parish of Sutton Three more baptisms were entered in 1786, after which apparently he left Tichborne. He died 6 February 1830 at Hatherop (C.R.S., xii, 188). His successorwas the Rev. Charles Peters, who remained for forty-six years. Only twelve baptisms areentereddownto 1790, and then thereis no furtherrecord of baptisms until 1829. As the leaves of the Register are loose it is possible that some are missing, though more probably, if records were kept, they were entered in another Register which has not yet been discovered Baptisms by Father Laurence Byron (see Sopley Introduction, supra, p. 99) were entered from November 1829 to June 1831 , and his name is given in the 1831 Laity's Directory under Tichborne, which seemsto indicatethat Father Peters was ill during hislast years. Father Peters died 2 February 1833, aged 73 , and was buried in St. James's Cemetery , Winchester (cf. C.R.S., xlii, 176 , M.I. No. 222)
The 1834 Laity's Directorygives the Rev. . McStay at Tichborne and the 1835 edition the Rev. Henry Philips. No entries were made by the Rev. Edward McStay, but the Rev. Henry Philips afterwards entered baptisms performed by the Rev. Edward McStay in August, Octoberand December 1832 , and in March 1833. These seem to be taken from another Register which the Rev. Edward McStay took away with him, for the Rev. Henry Philips prefaces the entries with " 1832 Extractum é Registro Baptismali manuscripto ad me infrascriptum ab Edwardo M Stay misso. "
The Rev. Henry Stephen Philips (see Portsea Introduction in a subsequent volume ) baptized here from August 1836 to 1846 . * I.e. Bishops Sutton. Mrs. Bryan Stapleton (Oxfordshire Post-Reformation Missions, p 175) seems to confuse Lee and Leigh
It was intended to publish the Portsea Register beforethe Tichborne Register, but printingrestrictions limiting the size ofthe volumeshave caused the order of publication to be altered.
The following priests have baptizedat Tichbornesince thattime. Those who were obviously not chaplains, but merely performing an occasional baptism, are marked with an asterisk.

A suede-covered note-book (similar to modernautographalbums), 6 x 4 inches , with brass clasp at the longer end, has been used as a Register. The binding is broken and the leaves, unpaged, are loose. The book has not been used as it was made to be used, i.e. the entries are not across the 6 inches, but across the 4 inches, so thatthe clasp is at the bottom of the writing
The insidecover is plain white paper Thereis no fly-leafand the entries begin without any heading. All the entries down to and including Father Peters' own entries appearto be in Fr. Peters' hand , the rest are all in Father Philips's writing

I beg leave to say that the Mrs. Martin to whom I yesterday referred Mr Philips is not the servant at Tichborne of that name but a person living in Alresford
It may be useful to Mr Philips to be also informed of the case of a girl named Barton of the age of 14 or 15. She was to have received conditionalbaptism along with a little brother & sister , as they were when infants baptized in the Protestant church; the two latter I baptized, but reserved the baptizing of her till I should have instructed her, as she is sufficientlygrown toreceive the sacrament as an adult. She will require considerable attention, as she is [p. 3] living with an ignorant mother & Protestantfather, & cannot be assisted by any one about her .
Iwishto add also that it was my intention to have continued for some time occasionally to instruct Whitear the housemaid of Mrs Robt Tichborne, & her late cook whose name I think is Titheridge. They had a competent knowledge of our Faithwhen admitted into the church, but required to be further instructed in Catholic practices This may lead Mr Philips to examine them & complete their instruction if he finds them deficient With respect to others I had under instruction, I named themyesterday to your Lordship Sir Henry [torn] might have thought I had others in addition to those, from the circumstance of myhaving said that therewas a prospect of conversions, as there were some indirect applications made for instruction.
I forgot to say that the head-gardener of the Grange, (Mr Baring's Estate) through his acquaintance with the Knights at Chelsea has become strongly inclined to be converted He reads
our books, & is already tolerably acquainted with our tenets I had one conversation with him.
Believe me My Lord with reverence & submission Yr obedient Servt & Subjt
