PREFACE.

This volume is a reprint from the Dewsbury Parish Magazine. It contains the

first three volumes of the Registers of Dewsbury, and covers the period from 1538 to 1653.

There are a few intervals in the first volume, which, until it was bound and its leaves were

mounted at the Public Record Office a few years ago, was in a very bad state, all the leaves

being loose, and some of them being much frayed.

I am responsible for the transcript of the first volume, and for comparing the proof

sheets of the first and second volumes with the originals. I also compared the proof sheets

of the third volume of the Registers with the transcript. The second and third volumes were

transcribed by Miss Pattie Osler at the British Museum, where they were under the care

of Mr. J. P. Anderson until they were copied ; and the transcript of the third volume,

which in parts is much faded, was compared with the original by Mr. W. Paley Baildon,

who kindly volunteered his services.

The Index has been partly prepared by Mr. W. W. Yates and his daughter, Miss

Yates, and lias been completed by two of my daughters. It contains some peculiar names,

and records many varieties in the spelling of the more common names. On the whole,

however, the entries are not particularly interesting. We find frequent references to Lee

Fair, and Care Sunday is often mentioned. Some Accounts of the Churchwardens appear

on page 29. The Plague is mentioied on pages 50 and 51. Taen we find Crosse Week,

page 92 ; Plowe Day, page loo; Seane Day, page io5 ; Fastens Even, page loS; Ex.ercise Day,

page 117 and elsewhere; and there is frequent mention of Shire or Shear Thursday, Collop

Monday, the New Park, &c. I commenced to prepare a General Index; but it appeared

to be such a list of unimportant matters that I abandoned the idea.

DEWSBURY PARISH REGISTERS.

Notice to our Readers.

It is proposed to devote a leaf of the

Magazine each month to the Old Registers

of the Parish Church, and to other matters of

local interest which it may be possible to print.

As considerable expense will be incurred in

carrying out this Scheme, it is hoped that the

members of the Parish Church Congregation

and other friends who may be interested in local

history \vill do their best to increase the sale of

the Magazine, so as in some measure to meetthe expense. Much interesting information caneasily be printed if sufficient funds can be raised

for the purpose. Among the most valuable

records of the past are the Parish Registers,

which date back to the year 1538, and which onthe whole are in very good order. The first

volume extends from 1538 to 1599, and owingto the leaves being loose for mmy years andhaving become very friable, they have crumbledaway at the edges and some of the writing has

perished. This volume was, however, in the

year 1840, copied by Mr. H. J. Hemingway,Surgeon, Dewsbury, into a small 4to volume,

which is now kept in the vestry, and from which

some words can now be made out which have

disappeared in the original register. Implicit

reliance cannot, however, be placed on the

copy, as tliere are many errors in it, apparently

owing to the difficulty which was experienced in

reading the original. These errors will be cor-

rected as far as possible in the copy printed in

this Magazine. Mr. Hemingway tells us that

he copied the first two pages of his transcript

" from an old copy of the Registry, some frag-

ments of which are now (1840), along with the

original Registry, loose in old backs." A great

part of the first two pages of the original has

disappeared, and the remainder consists of analmost circular part of the centre of the leaf

from which it has been possible to check andcorrect part of Mr. Hemingway's copy. This

copy has the following note on the first page :

—

•The Sir Henry Savell, or Savile, hero mentioned wasmade a Knight of the Bath at the coronation of Queen AnneBoleyn, 30th May, 25th Henry ^^II. He was High Sheriffof Yorkshire 29th and 3.3rd Henry VIII., and wasSteward of the Honor of Pontefiaet and of the Manor ofWakefield. At the time of his death he was the owner ofSO manors in the county of York. By his marriage withElizabeth, daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Soothill ofSoothill, Esquire, he greatly increased his estate, theManor of Soothill Upper being part of the property soacquired by him. Edward Savell, whose baptism is hererecorded, was the eldest son of this marriage and hisfather's heir. He was of weak intellect, and died in theyear 1604 without issue, having been twice married.Sir Henry Savile had an illegitimate son, Robert, who wasthe first of the Saviles of Howley Hall, a not verv reputablefamily, who became extinct in 1671, when How'ley and theaccompanjing estates passed to the Earls of Cardigan.Sir Henry Savile took an active part in the suppression ofthe Pilgrimage of Grace ; and the Constable of Dewsburyand his fellow officials having attempted to assess thepeople of that place for the purpose of equipping two sol-diers on behalf of the Commons or rebels, Sir HenrySavile, on All Hallows Day, 1536, caused the Constable andhis assistants to be brought before him in Dewsbury Church,threatened them, and made them pay the money backunder pain of being hanged as traitors.

Wakefield. The members of the family frhose names ap-pear in the Dewsbury Registers resided at Ossett. SeeTestamenta Eboracensia {Surtees Society), vol. iv. p. 108,and vol. v. p. 283, for further information. John Bradforth,of Ossett, made his will 20th June, 1506, and directed thathe should be buried in the Church of AUhallows of Dews-bury. He bequeathed Is. 3d. " to the makyug of a pixe(the box in which the host was kept) to ye hye awter ofDewisbery," and he mentions John Bradford tho elder, andThomas his son, John Bradford the younger, and Williamhis brother. The three latter are probably identical withthe persons of the same names who are mentioned so fre-

quently in the Dewsbury Registers.

f The Aliens were a numerous family residing at Ossett,Horbury, and Dewsbury. The name is spelt in many waysin the Register. The John Aylen here mentioned was pro-bably the son of JohnAlayn of Ossett, an abstract of whosewill, dated 13th May, 1509, is printed in the 5th vol. of theTest. Ebor, p. 2. This will is very interesting, not only forits quaint wording and spelling, hut also for the bequestscontained therein and the directions given by the testator.

The following is an abstract:—"My soule to God Almightie,our Lady Sent Mary, and all ye fair feliship of hevyn. Mybest gud to be my mortuary. It is my wyll that my wyifbe content with her feffment and her third parte of all myboght landes. It is my wyll that John my son abyde styll

upon my fader's hows with my fader ; and it is my wyllthat William my broder be ther husband {i.e., husbandman)and that thei do well to him for his labur. It is my wyllthat my fader and John my son give to Alison my doghterxx«'uowbuls {i.e., nobles, coins worth 6s. 8d. each) unto hermarriage, and that she be with my suster Alyson, for shewill teche her sume gude. It is my will yt Robert my broderhave at harvest half a quarter rye, also it is my wiU yt Eliza-

And, father, if my wif be wiih an otherchilde, ye must mende her suniwhate (make some furtherprovision for her). And all other thynges I leve with Godand youe, as my triste is in youe.

and for Gode's sake, rule all wisely as I have done, and yeshall have moch nienske (honour or credit) thereof."The date of probate of this will is not given. There is in theYork Registry another will of John Alan of Osset also dated13th May, 1509, and which was proved on the 21st Julyfollowing. It is possible that it may be the will of thefather of the above-named testator. The will is as follows ;

—

of Hethe (Heath, near Wakefield), a note of whose will is

given in the Test. Ebor. iv. 109. His father, Sir RichardT., left to him by will the leases which he (the father) heldin Wakefield and the premises brought from the above-named .John Br.idford. An undated bill of complaintbefore the Star Chamber was brought by Nicholas Tempestas King's farmer of all the toll of the town of Wakefieldand lordship (under a demise made 6 Henry VIII. to Sir

Richard, his father, at a rent of £99 7i), who .said thatThomas Savell of Clyfton, in the lordship of Wakefield,had about 31st March last past drowned himself, andNicholas Tempest claimed i40 of his goods unjustlyremoved. He (Nicholas) served on the grand jury atDoncaster, 24th NovemVior, 1.541, who found a true bill

against Queen Catherine Howard, Lady Rochford, FrancisDereham, and Thomas Cul])eper, when an indictment wasl^repared againat them before the King's Justices for actsof criminality alleged to have taken place at PontefractCastle. Hewas bailiff of Wakefield in 1543-4, and still

bailiff in 1549, and in the latter year he paid 20s. to thelay subsidy for i20 worth of goods in the Ossett Division.His first wife, Mrs. Beatrice (or "Betterys") Tempest, wasbiu-ied .at Dewsbury 8 December 1550. In 1551 he hadmarried again, as in that year he (described as of Wakefield)and I.sabcl his wife, late wife of Hen. Kyghley, ofInskipp, in Lancashire, Esip, deceased, sued Henry theson for certain goods at Inskipp Hall, On the 20th June,1562, he and his son Robert sold certain lands in Tong to

Henry Batt (the first of that name at Oakwell Hall, theformer owner having been Charles Brandon, Duke ofSuffolk). On the 7th September, 1564, he was a party tothe marriage articles of Richard, his son and heir, withEleanor, daughter of Lord Scrope of Bolton. Both his

elder brothers having died without issue, he succeeded tothe estates of Bracewell and Boiling and other familyestates, which at his death, about 24th December, 1570.devolved on his above-mentioned son Richard. Genealogistshave sometimes confused him with his imcle NicholasTempest, who on the 25th May, 1537, in company withSir John Bulmer, Sir Stephen Hamerton, and the abbot of

Jervaux and others, was hanged, drawn, and quarteredfor participiiting in the Pilgrimage of Grace. Nicholasthe nephew seems, however, to have been more discreet or

more fortunate than his uncle, and to have died in his bed,which was rather uncommon in the time of the Tudors.For a great part of the information contained in this notethe writer is indebted to an oblig-ing communication fromMrs. Arthur Tempest, of C'oleby Hall, Lincoln, and to apaper by that lady on Nicholas Tempest published in theYorkshire Archicol.

ilThe Rev. .John Rudd was instituted to the Vicar-

age of Dewsbury, 30th Dec., 1554, he having previously

brought letters from the Bishop of London and the Vicar-

General of the Diocese of Lichfield, to shew that he hadbeen divorced from Isabella Welden, his late wife, that

he was penitent, and that he had been restored to his

priestly orders.—Yorkshire Archteol. Journal, vol. 10,

page 96. He had no doubt been in trouble on account

of his marriage, the Queen having in March, 1553-4,

sent a series of articles into the dioceses authorising the

deprivation of clerks who were married '

' contrary to the

state of there order, and the laudable custome of the

Churche." He probably re-married after the Queen's

death, for he had a child christened at Dewsbury Churchon the 24th December, 1561.

DEWSBUEY PARISH REGISTERS. 59

VOLUME II.

The Second Volume of the Parish Registers

extends from 25th March, 1600, to 29th January,

1612. It is a narrow foUo volume of vellum

with five paper leaves mserted at the commence-ment and one paper leaf added at the end of

the volume. The first and last of the paper

leaves contain miscellaneous notes, and the

other four leaves contain the names of the

Churchwardens of Dewsbury from Easter, 1599to 1653, inclusive, with the addition of further

miscellaneous notes on the last page of the

fourth leaf.

The volume has been copied in full with all

the quaint spelling and will be so printed. Thefirst leaf has writing on the second page only,

which consists largely of scribble, and the few

entries on it are not consecutive and are in

many different hands.

The entries are as follows :

—

Michaell Smyth and Marye Pickarde marryed at

Ossett Chapel the xijth of Noveni. 1639.

Martyn Lyster Jos. Dewsberie.[These two names appear to he autographs

;

it is doubtful if they have any reference to the

foregoing entry. Just above is the date 1599.]

24 Martii dyed quene Elizabethe 1602 anno eius

regni 44.

She raigned fortye fower yeares 18 weekes.

Averye Acrode viccar of Dewsburye.[This signature seems to be the autograph of

the Vicar. It occurs again at the top of the first

page of the Register.]

* At a Court of tho Rectory Manor, held 23ril De-cember, 31 Elizabeth, Marmaduke Speig;ht, of London,Merchant and Mary his wife, by Michael Bentlcy senr.,surrendered lands in tho fields called Crackenedgo and thoNorthfield to the use of Michael Bentley, son of JohuBentley, of Ossett.

At the same Court (23rd December, 31 Elizabeth),Richard Brifffje surronded all his right and title to a.

cottage in Dewshury to the use of Michael Bentley ofBatley, yeoman, for the residue of a term of 21 years.

Michael Bentley is also mentioned in the C'ourt Rollof oOtli JLarch, 33 Elizabeth, as an owner of land, .and alsoas lending to Marm.aduke Speight the sum of twelve penceon mortgage of two selions of landinthe"Crowkoynge,"(Crook Ing) Dewsbury.

At a Court held 8th October, 30th Elizalieth, MichaelBentley was amerced 4d. for that he being a tenant of thoManor and owing suit had not appeared at that Court ;

and at the .same Court John Bentley was amerced llid. for"keejienige and geatinge his cattail upon tho commonwhen the come was growing there," and Thomas Green-wood and Michael Bentley were ordered to " sett theiraccustomed steoles (.stiles) betweene the Boutlieroidcs forthe foote way before All Saints day then next " under a.

penalty of 3s. 4d. each for default.

At a Court held 18th April, 30th Eliadieth, MichaelBentley of Batley. ajipears as lending to Ma rmadukc Speightand liis wife £80 on mortgage of land in Dewshury, andMichael Bentley also appears as buying several pieces ofland and as selling another piece.

It will be seen from the list of Churchw.irdens alreadyprinted that Michael lientley, senr., and Michael Bentley,

Jim., were churchwardens of Dewsbury several times. Thoformer gave 20s. j)cr annum to the poor in 1G17, and tholatter 26s. 8d. per anmuii in liJ21 for the same objects.

The.sc sums called " lieutloy's Doles " are still received bythe Vicar and Churchwardens for the use of the poor. Thotwo Hentleys also gave stone cottages in Dewshury to booccupied rent free by poor people.

* Exercises were assemblies of the clergy held by leave

of their bishop, for the interpretation of texts of Scripture,

"one speaking to it orderly after another;" these werecalled prophesyings from the apostolical direction. I. Cor.

xiv. 31,—" Ye may all prophesy one by one that all maylearn and all be comforted." Neal's History of the Puri

tans, Vol. I., c. 5,—These exercises were held early in

Queen Elizabeth's reign, but the Queen did not approve of

them, and in May, 1577, she issued letters to all the bishops

commanding them peremptorily to put the exercises down.

Archbishop Grindal ventured to remonstrate with her im-

perious Majesty, who was so enraged that she ordered himto be confined to his house and sequestered him from his

archiepiscopal functions for six months. The exercises

were again held after the death of Elizabeth. ArchbishopGrindal's letter to the Queen in defence of prophecies is

printed in Fuller's Church History, Book ix. sec. 4.

•Cross Week, Rogation Week, or Gang Week, so called

because on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of thatweek Rogations and Litanies were used, and the clergy

having crosses borne before them and accompanied by their

churchwardens, choristers, and others, went in procession

round the bounds of their parishes. The boundaries of aparish were in some instances marked at certain points byGospel Trees, so called from the custom of having the Gos-pel read under or near them by the clergyman attendingthe perambulation ; and in other instances small crosses cut

in stune or wood were used to mark the boundaries. Ulti-

mately the Thursday in Rogation Week, i.e Holy Thurs-day or Ascension Day became the more usual day for

beating the bounds. The churchwardens' accounts of theparish of Mirficld contain many entries of payments madewhen beating the bounds, or "rambling" as it was called.
