EARLS FAMILY CHRONICLES© Christopher Earls Brennen
It is speculated that some of the historical Earls in Ireland are descended from some junior branch of the Norman family whose name was de Erlegh, a name which variously appears as de Erlegh, de Erleigh, de Erleia, de Earley, de Erley, d'Erley, de Herlegh, Earley, Earle, de Arle, etc. The following account traces that family of knightly rank from John de Erlegh who lived in England in the late 12th century through their incursion into Ireland and their enfeifdom near Kilkenny where the modern townland of Earlstown memorializes their presence.
Before beginning the de Erlegh story it is useful to comment on some of the places appearing in it. The de Erlegh family took its name from the manor of Erley, Earley or Erle, sometimes called Earley Whiteknights, in the parish of Sonning, Berkshire, England [8,p.47,56,70]. They also held considerable property in County Somerset which was their principal residence for most of the period described. These possessions included the county manors of Beckington, Durston, Babcary, Michael's Church, the manor and hundred of North Petherton and the manor of Somerton (also referred to as Somerton-parva and Somerton-Erlegh) [11,v.2,p.198]. Their holdings in Berkshire included, at various times, the manors of Erley Regis (Whitenights) and Maiden Erley in the hundred of Sonning, the manors of Charlton, South Denchworth and Cleets in the hundred of Wantage, the manor of Midgham in the hundred of Reading and the manor of Barkham in the hundred of Charlton. In the Doomsday Book the manor of Erley (Herlei) is assessed at 4 hides.
In Ireland the modern parish of Earlstown, County Kilkenny, formed the nucleus of the ancient manor named after the de Erleghs and comprised the townlands of Newtown, Castle Eve, Ovenstown, Kilbrickan and Cronoge. It is in the parish barony of Shillogher and is bounded on the north by the parishes of Burnchurch and Tullamain, on the east by the parish and barony of Kells, on the south by the parish of Mallardstown and on the west by the barony of Callan. Mallardstown derives from William Maillard to whom it was granted by 1/4 knight's fee by John de Erlegh [7]. Earlstown lies 2.75 miles east of modern Callan on the road from Desart to Thomastown. It is situated on the Kings river here crossed by a stone bridge and comprising 2916 acres. At Castle-Eve are remains of an old castle with a moat and fortification. In the Newtown demesne is a square tower castle in good state of preservation and some remains of the old church with a burial ground.
Though it has no known connection with the Earls family, the 1/4 inch ordnance survey map of S.E.Ireland shows a place called Earlshill about one mile north of route T37 from Cashel to Kilkenny and about one mile west of the intersection of T37 with L153.
Finally a note on measures of land used in feudal times. A messuage was a piece of land intended for or containing a dwelling. A virgate was about 30 acres. A carucate was about 100-150 acres or as much land as could be tilled with one plough. A hide was sufficient land, about 120 acres, for the support of one free family and its dependents. Shires (counties) were divided into hundreds containing a nominal 100 hides supporting 100 knights.
Several years after the authors had independently constructed the history of the de Erlegh family, we discovered a substantial account written by the Rev. Isacc Newton Earle and published under the title ``History and Genealogy of the Earles of Secaucus (with an account of other English and American branches)'' by Guelff Printing Company, Marquette, Michigan, U.S.A. in 1924. Much of the rest of this chapter follows that book whose author had access to the substantial researches of Sir Henry Earle and the family archives. However, we have chosen to retain our own construction for the years before 1440 A.D. since it was based on the original references.
The chronicle begins with a Norman knight, John de Erlegh. Though his origins are obscure the arms of the de Erlegh family may contain some clues and are discussed in Appendix 1E.
John de Erlegh(I), a Norman knight, paid 5 marks in 1161 for scutage of his lands at Beckington, Somerset to King Henry II; he also held the manor and hundred of North Petherton. John de Erlegh(I) died in 1165 and in the same year his widow, Adela, paid 5 marks scutage [11,v.2,p.198]. He was succeeded by his son William de Erlegh(I) [31].
Thomas de Erlegh, the brother of John(I), was the Archdeacon of Taunton, Somerset in 1164 and of Bath between 1175 and 1185 [31][32,v.8,p.34].
William de Erlegh(I), the son and heir of John(I), succeeded his father in 1165 in the reign of King Henry II [11,v.2,p.198]. In 1166 he is referred to as the lord of the manor of Durston, Somerset. Also in 1166, as his father's heir, he owed 10s. for the manor of Erley, Berkshire [1,v.3,p.213] [33,1166]. He is also mentioned in the Pipe Roll, 1176 [1,v.3,p.213]. He is certified to hold a knight's fee ``in capite'' of the king which by virtue of his tenure of North Petherton, Somerset he had the right to be the King's Chamberlain [11,v.3,p.54]. William founded at Buckland, parish of Durston, Somerset, a priory, a small house of regular canons of St.Augustine. Soon after their institution, these canons behaved themselves in a riotous and disorderly manner, killing their steward, a relation of William. Therefore, in 1180, the King removed them to other monasteries and gave their house for the endowment of a priory of sister hospitallers of the order of St. John under a stipulation that the sisters of that order who lived in other preceptories should be placed here and must never be received into any other of their houses in the kingdom [11,v.3,p.196]. This priory William(I) endowed with his lands at Durston and also gave it the church of North Petherton with the appendant churches or chapels of Chedzoy, Pawlett, Huntworth, Earls Newton, Thurloxton, Shurton, Kings Newton, Beckington and Kilmersdon [11,v.3,p.196]. In 1180, the sheriff of Berkshire rendered account of 20s. from the lands of William de Earley in the manor of Charlton, hundred of Wantage, Berkshire [1,v.4,p.324]. William married Aziria and had two sons, John(II) and Henry [31][6,p.xviii], and at least three daughters [6,n.34][11,v.3,p.72]. One of these, Mabel, William gave in free marriage to Philip Arbalistarius along with the manor of Mansel, Somerset, held in payment of two young pigs every Whitsun at his court of Durston [11,v.3,p.72]. William(I) probably died about 1195.
John de Erlegh(II) or d'Erley, the son and heir of William(I), became a close advisor and companion to William the Marshal, regent of England in the early 13th century. In 1195 he paid scutage to King Richard I for his lands in Somerset and Berkshire; he held one knight's fee in Berkshire [1,v.3,p.213]. In 1197, he received from Maud, daughter of Robert de Earley (see Appendix 1C) a quitclaim for two hides of land in Earley, Reading and Sonning, Berkshire [1,v.3,p.213]. In 1199 he held the manor and hundred of North Petherton at an annual rent to King John of 100 shillings [11,v.2,p.198]. John(II) also gave land to the Abbey of Athelney, Somerset, in return for a yearly rent of a pair of gilt spurs worth sixpence; for this grant he received 2 marks of silver, his wife Sibyll a bezant and his son John a pair of spurs [32,v.14,p.190]. This agreement was witnessed by a Geoffrey de Erlegh and a William de Erlegh. His wife, Sibyll [32,v.14,p.190], had at least two sons, William(II) and John. From reference [2] we know the following about the career of John(II): In the year 1188, William Marshal, a knight in the service of Henry II of England engaged a new attendant, John d'Erley, who as squire and knight was to serve him all his life [2,p.63]. John d'Erley, squire, is mentioned as having a part in a skirmish in 1190 between the English Normans and Phillip of France near Le Mans, France [2,p.69]. By 1199 John had become a knight in William's service. In fact he was deemed so trustworthy that he was charged with the delicate mission of carrying the news of the death of Richard I (as well as Richard's choice of his brother John as his successor) from France to England and, in particular, to the justicar Geoffrey fitz Peter [2,p.120]. King John made John d'Erley joint sheriff of Devonshire in 1202 in order to suppress a reported rising in S.W.England [15,p.276]. William Marshal had been created Lord of Leinster, Ireland in 1189 but he never visited this domain until 1207. In that year King John issued letters patent for the protection of William's lands in England, as well as those of Henry Hose and John d'Erley who were to accompany William to Ireland [2,p.146]. William held lands in the vicinity of Kilkenny (his demesne manor and castle), Carlow, Kells and Wexford. He also founded New Ross. John d'Erley and Jordan de Sackville (an Irish baron) were entrusted with the custody of two halves of Leinster when William was recalled to England by King John in some measure of disgrace [2,p.155]. Indeed John d'Erley and Jordan de Sackville rose in arms against the king's justicar, Meiler fitz Henry, and defeated him. However William made a temporary peace with the king and returned to Kilkenny in April, 1208, at which time he probably rewarded John d'Erley with a generous fief [2,p.161]. However the trouble between William and King John flared up again in the winter of 1208-09 when William de Briouse, fleeing from John, was harbored for a time by William at his castle in Kilkenny. King John came to Ireland in force to put down other rebel barons who played a larger role in the de Briouse affair. He also punished William Marshal and as a part of that treatment John d'Erley (among others) was taken as a hostage and placed in Nottingham castle [2,p.167]. Nevertheless as a part of William's sub-infeudation of Leinster John d'Erley and others received fiefs in the previously undeveloped county of Kilkenny [2,p.167]. Somewhat later in 1212 King John again restored William Marshal to favor and gave William's two sons who had been hostages in the royal court into the custody of John d'Erley who was still at court [2,p.173]. d'Erley did not feel he could handle both sons so one was transferred to Thomas de Sandford [2,p.173]. When King John died in 1216 leaving his infant son as heir, William Marshal became regent of England and John d'Erley his closest advisor, though he initially advised William against acceptance of the regency [2,p.202]. John served in a number of capacities including bailiff at Striguil in Wales in 1219. In 1219 as William approached death John d'Erley hastened from Striguil to his bedside at Caversham on the Thames, there to attend him closely until his death [2,p.279]. However a threat to William's lands in south Wales prompted him to direct John as follows: ``John, do not tarry. Go to your bailiwick. I am disturbed about my men in Netherwent and especially about your son who if he should be foolishly advised might make some expedition in which our men would suffer'' [2,p.283]. After his mission John returned to Caversham and stayed with William the Marshal until the latter's death [2,p.283-289]. John de Erlegh's(II) recollections are said to have provided the material for Mayer's poetic story ``Histoire de Guillaume le Marechal''. John(II) was in the service of the younger William the Marshal (son of the elder Marshal) in 1222 and accompanied him to Ireland in 1224; letters patent were issued for protection of his English lands until Christmas 1224. During this time he witnessed at least one of the charters of the younger Marshal [29,v.1,p.23,n.46]. He was still living in 1229 but died shortly afterwards [7,p.157].
William de Erlegh(II) was the eldest son of John(II). William(II) paid King John scutage for lands in Somerset and Berkshire in 1199 during his father's lifetime. He had two sons John(III) and Henry [11,v.2,p.199].
John de Erlegh(III), the son of William(II), paid scutage to King Richard in 1195 and held the hundred of North Petherton, Somerset. He is probably the John de Erlegh, the younger, who was in the service of William the Marshal and witnessed the latter's charter to Haverfordwest, Wales [34,1327-41,p.227]. He married Isolda (who outlived him ) but died without issue in 1228 [11,v.2,p.199].
Henry de Erlegh, who was the second son of William(II), inherited from his grandfather John(II) in 1230 [11,v.2,p.199]. In 1230 at the inquistion held by the Sheriff of Berkshire following the death of John(II), Henry was found to hold one knight's fee of the king in capite in Erley, Berkshire and the manor of Somerton-Parva or Somerton-Erleigh in Somerset in capite by serjeantry [7,p.157]. As the brother and heir of John(III), Henry made a fine of 20 marks for the relief of the lands which John(III) had held of the king in chief [7,p.157]. In 1236 Henry and his chaplain (also called Henry) were involved in litigation with the Wallingford Priory. The result was the establishment of the right of the Priory to 8s. pension from the tithes of Earley [1,v.3,p.223]. Henry married twice. His first wife, Egelina de Candos, gave birth to Philip(I). His second wife, Claricia or Clemencia, bore him two sons, John and Bartholemew [11,v.2,p.199]. Bartholemew de Erlegh had a son John [8,p.47] who may have lived in Berkshire. Henry was sheriff of Dorset and Somerset [11,v.2,p.199]. He also held the ancestral lands in Kilkenny, Ireland; in 1247, he is listed as owing 1/2 and 1/4 knight's fees for Nova Villa in Cullak in County Kilkenny [5,p.191,n.27]. Cullak or Coyllagh is Coillach, so called from its woods, and is a large district which includes the parishes of Earlstown, Mallardstown and Coolaghmore in the last of which the name survives. Coolaghmore is apparently identical with the ancient borough of Coillach which was a part of the demense lands of William Marshall. About 1240 Henry made grants to Ralph Blund, Walter Blund, Henry de Hepene and William, son of Henry de Waiwainestone (Owenstown) of land in Villa Wawany (Owenstown), Kilkenny as his free men of Nova Villa (Newtown). Ralph, Henry and William were to pay 17s. 11d. and Ralph 1/2d. at Michaelmas, Ralph, Henry and William 8s. 11 1/2d. and Ralph a farthing (1/4d.). The consideratum was 100s. [29,v.1,p.41,n.92and93]. In 1260 Henry was one of the eminent men who were summoned to the Great Council or Parliament convened by the king in London [18]. In 1269, he witnessed several documents at Wells Cathedral, Somerset [24,v.2,n.99]. Also about this time he granted to William de Plessetis for homage and service, 9 acres of meadow in the manor of La Haymore, hundred of N. Petherton, Somerset, who was to pay, yearly, a pitcher of wine on St.Martin's day [24,v.2,n.121]. Henry died in 1272, survived by his wife Clemencia [1,v.3,p.213].
Philip de Erlegh(I), son of Henry by his first wife, married Rosa, daughter and heir of Peter de Marisco. They had issue: John(IV), Phillip(II), Roland and a daughter. The daughter married Richard de Acton. Philip married a second wife, Maud, who outlived him and married Sir Geffrey de Wroxhall [11,v.2,p.199]. Philip(I) died [5,p.245] in 1275 very soon after his father [14,3EdI,p.100] and thus his son, John(IV), succeeded when he was only 4 years old [6][10,I,244,n.72].
John de Erlegh(IV), born 1271, was only 4 when, in 1275, he inherited from his father, Philip(I) [6]. King Edward I appointed the long wardship to Thomas de Cantelupe, Bishop of Hereford [6][13,6EdI,p.458]. The reason why the Bishop of Hereford wished for the wardship of John(IV) is curious: ``Whereas Thomas, Bishop of Hereford, who is the King's Council frequently comes to the king and has not any lodging wherein he can conveniently stay in coming from his parts or in returning, for which reason he has requested that the king commit to him until the heirs of Henry de Erlegh, tenant-in-chief, come of age, the Manor of Erley in Reading which belonged to the said Henry....'' [6][13,4EdI,p.268]. There was, however, some confusion over the custody of the manor of N.Petherton. It had also been granted to the Prior of Buckland [14,Ed I,p.100]. This duplication had to be cleared up by a later edict from the king [23,Ed I,p.462]. John(IV) came of age in 1293 and the king, in 1294, took his homage and restored him to his lands [6][13,22EdI,p.353]. He took part in the Scottish wars of King Edward I (1292-1306) [11,v.2,p.199] and became known as the ``White Knight''. He was Sheriff of Dorset and Somerset in 1291, in 1298 and in 1315 [7,p.157] and was M.P. for Somerset in 1308 and in 1313 [11,v.2,p.199]. He witnessed several agreements at Wells Cathedral, Somerset [24,v.2]. In 1314, John(IV) bore on his seal three escallops within a bordure engrailed and tinctured gules and argent. These arms were used by his descendants [11,v.2,p.199]. In 1317-18, a settlement of 1 messuage and 2 carucates of land and 50s. rent in Charlton, Berkshire was made on John and his heirs; however in 1324 a messuage and 3 carucates of land in the same manor were conveyed to David Martin, Bishop of St.David's (who died in 1328 and whose heir was Thomas Carew of Moulsford) [1,v.4,p.324]. In 1323 John(IV) held the manor of Erlegh, Berkshire, the manor and hundred of N. Petherton, the hamlet of Somerton-parva, the manor of Durston, 5s. of rent in Michaelchurch and the manors of Babcary and Beckington in Somerset [35,17EdII,n.62]. He also was a sub-tenant at Earlstown in Kilkenny, Ireland [3]. Throughout the period 1299-1317 he was regularly granted letters of attorney for persons of property in Ireland remaining in England [7,p.157]. He is listed as owing 1/2 and 1/4 knight's fees for Nova Villa de Erlay and Nova Coyllagh in County Kilkenny in 1317 [16,p.194,n.27]. In 1321 one of his attorneys in Ireland was his son, John(V) [7,p.159]. He and his wife, Muriel (who outlived her husband) had a son, John(V) and a daughter, Isabel [35,17EdII,n.62]. John(IV) died in 1324 [11,v.2,p.199][35,17EdII,n.297] survived by his wife, Muriel.
Roland de Erlegh, the brother of John(IV) [6][11,v.2,p.199], held the manor of Midgham, Berkshire after Giles de Earley (see Appendix 1C); he paid rents in 1271 [1,v.4,p.190]. In 1275, Edward I appointed Roland the custody of the religious house of Leominster, Hertfordshire (a cell of Reading Abbey) which had fallen into debt and other difficulties. The king had to ask the abbot to remove from the abbey and its cell all serjeants and horses with their keepers and to receive no more. All that Roland was able to save at Leominster, after finding the dean and chaplains in food and clothing and poor mendicants in alms, he was to apply to discharge of the debts [1,v.2]. In 1282 a Roland de Erleye was also involved in a complex deal involving the manor of Middleton Lillebon, hundred of Kynewardeston, Wiltshire [35,v.2,EdI,p.256]. In 1291, Sir Roland de Erlegh is mentioned in the records of Wells Cathedral, Somerset [24,n.152]. In 1294, a Rowland de Earley was tenant of Cleets, the other half of the manor of South Denchworth, hundred of Wantage, Berkshire. The Earleys were still in possession of South Denchworth in 1307 when the manor passed to David Martin, Bishop of St. Davids [1,v.4,p.282].
John de Erlegh(V), the son of John(IV), was born about 1308 and inherited from his father [35,17EdII,n.62]. In the period 1324-1337, due to his residence in England, power of attorney in Ireland was granted to various individuals including Henry de Erlegh in 1336 [7,p.159]. In 1327 an order was issued from Nottingham to Arnold Power, the King's Steward of the county of Kilkenny, Ireland not to distrain John de Erlegh, knight, for homage or fealty of the lands he holds of the king in Ireland for he has done his homage [7,p.159]. In 1328 John(V) held the same properties as his father in Berkshire and Somerset with the addition of his land in Pury probably brought to him by his wife, Elizabeth [35,11EdIII,n.11]. However, before his death in 1337, John(V) granted the manor of Erley, Berkshire to Humphrey de la Rokele and his wife Maud for their lives [1,v.3,p.213]. He represented his father in Ireland in the 1320s, probably residing there [3,p.62]. On July 12, 1332 he was among those ordered to be with the king at Michaelmas at the place where the king intended to embark for Ireland. However this project was abandoned [7,p.159]. John(V) was Sheriff of Somerset in 1325, Sheriff of Somerset and Dorset in 1326 when he had the castle of Shireburne committed to his care [18] and M.P. for Somerset in the period 1329-1332. His name appears variously as John de Erle, Erleye, Erlegh and Erleghe in a number of commissions of the peace [7,p.159]. In 1327 he was appointed collector of 1/20th of the movables granted to the king by Parliament for defence against the Scots [18][7,p.159]. He witnessed several agreements at Wells Cathedral, Somerset during 1328-1337 [24,v.2]. In 1336 he made preparations for a visit to Ireland including granting power of attorney in England to Geoffrey de Wroxhale, parson of Beckington, and Robert de Somerton but whether he actually made the trip is not known [7,p.159]. He married Elizabeth and they had two sons, John(VI) and Richard, and three daughters [7,p.159]. One daughter, Catherine (or Katherine), became Prioress of Buckland Priory. A second, Elizabeth, married Sir John Stafford and a third, Alice, married Sir Nicholas Poines [7.p.159]. John(V) died in 1337; he was survived by his wife, Elizabeth [6,n.39][7,p.159][35,35EdIII].
John de Erlegh(VI), son of John de Erlegh(V), was born in 1334 and was only two years old when his father died in 1337 [1,v.3,p.213]. On March 19, 1337 the King granted William de Monte Acuto, Earl of Salisbury custody of the de Erlegh lands in England and Ireland during the minority of the heirs of John(V) [7,p.159]. In 1344, the king appointed John de Balscote keeper of the manor of Erleyston, Kilkenny by reason of the minority of John(VI) [17][16,p.245]. John(VI) is listed as the heir of ``John Derley'' in owing 3/4 knight's fees for Erleyston and Nova Coyllagh in County Kilkenny in 1355 [16,p.200,n.27]. He was summoned on March 15 1361/62 to attend a Great Council at Westminster in order to deliberate upon the disturbed state of Ireland [18]. In 1362, license was given to John(VI) to grant 2 messuages and 19 acres of land in Erley, Berkshire to Robert de Earley and his wife, Joan, while retaining a messuage and 2 carucates of land (these he probably sold afterwards to Henry de Aldrington) [1,v.3,p.213]. In 1363 he had license to enfief Robert de Erle, his son, of a manor including the fishery of Erle in the water of Lodyn, Berkshire [18][35,v.6,36EdIII]. John(VI) attended the Black Prince in Spain and was present at the battle of Najera in 1367 and several other engagements [11,v.2,p.199]. He was taken prisoner, put to great ransom and forced to sell the best part of his ancient inheritance [5,p.245]. In 1371 he had license to enfief John Cole of Bridgewater and his wife Margery in the manors of North Petherton, Somerton, Durston and Beckington, Somerset with the remainder to himself and his heirs [18][35,v.6,44EdIII]. This connection with the Cole family may be of considerable significance in the Earls family chronicle as discussed in the next chapter. In 1372 John(VI) sold the manor of Somerton-Erleigh in the hundred of North Petherton, Somerset (and the advowson of the chapel) to Richard Brice and his wife, Edith (who passed it to Sir Guy de Brien) [11,v.3,p.185] but retained to himself the manors of Babcary, Durston and Beckington [6][35,45EdIII,n.17]. The Berkshire manors were alienated about this time and the manor of Earlstown in Kilkenny, Ireland was conveyed to John Sweetman before 1381 [16,p.245][7,p.159]. Also in 1367 John(VI) remitted and released to Robert, Abbot of Athelney, Somerset and the convent all his right of six pennies which Roger Clavyle used to pay him yearly for his holding in Farendon in North Petherton as well as to a pair of nun's boots which the Abbot and convent used to render him yearly [32,v.14,p.175,n.164]. John(VI) married Margaret, daughter of Sir Guy de Brien K.G. (who was standard bearer to King Edward III at Crecy) and they had four sons, John(VII), Robert, Richard and Philip, and three daughters [31][11,v.2,p.199]. John(VI) died in 1372, possibly a victim of the Black Death then sweeping the country, leaving John(VII) his son and heir [7][18].
John de Erlegh(VII), son and heir of John(VI), succeeded his father in 1372. John(VII) married Isabel, daughter of Sir John Pavely [18][9,v.6,n.505] [11,v.2,p.199]. They had only one child, a daughter, Margaret [18]. In 1402 John(VII) held land in the hundred of Chippenham, Wiltshire [26,v.5,p.220]. He died in 1409 [7]. In 1412 his widow Isabel held the manors of Babcary, Beckington and Pury, Somerset [9,v.6,n.505]. In 1431 she is also noted as holding certain lands and tenements in Beckington by service of 1 fm. [9,p.425]. Isabel died in 1443.
Margaret de Erlegh, the daughter and heir of John(VII) inherited Beckington. She married three times. Her first husband was Sir John St. Maur [31] who was the second son of Richard St. Maur and inherited from him the manor of North Molton, Devon [28]. John and Margaret had a son John. Margaret's second husband was Sir Walter Sondes and her third Sir William Chaney [11,v.2,p.199]. The second marriage produced a daughter, Margaret de Sondes [18], who is important to the story.
John St. Maur, the son of Margaret de Erlegh by her first husband, John St. Maur, married Elizabeth Bamfylde [28], the daughter of Sir Thomas Brooke. When Margaret de Erlegh died in 1443 Beckington passed into the hands of the Bamfylde family [11,v.2,p.199]. The direct line became extinct at this point. John St. Maur had a son Sir Thomas St. Maur who, in turn, had a son John, who was followed by Sir William St. Maur, from whom the estate passed to his daughter, Margaret St. Maur [37].
Margaret de Sondes, the daughter of Margaret de Erlegh and Sir Walter Sondes married John Erle of Ashburton, County Devon, who was probably the grandson of John de Erlegh(VI) and the son of Robert de Erlegh [37].
The family tree of the de Erlegh family from John de Erlegh(I) to Margaret de Sondes is included as Appendix 1A.
This is a convenient point at which to interrupt the chronicle of the de Erlegh family for several reasons. The marriage of Margaret de Sondes to John Erle shifts the dominant inheritance to a previously junior branch of the family. We shall continue to trace their descendants shortly. But it is important to pick up two other threads in the story. First, in order to complete the record we should take note of the fact that during the above account the geographic center of activity of the de Erlegh family shifted from Berkshire to Somerset, England. But, other junior branches continued to occupy the large holdings in Berkshire. Though the records of these Berkshire families are less coherent, some scattered accounts are attached as Appendix 1C. However these are probably of lesser interest in our present story.
The principal reason for the interruption is the fact that the surname Erley, Erle, Erl or Erla has already appeared in Ireland prior to 1400. We have documented these records in Appendix 1D. In doing so we do not imply that the historical Earls are neccessarily descended from these early settlers. In fact there are two possible scenarios behind the presence of James and Henry Earles (see next chapter) in County Fermanagh, Ireland in the early 1700s. Family legend has it that the first Earls was brought to Fermanagh from Devon or Somerset by John Cole (the first Lord Enniskillen) as his secretary and agent during James I plantation of Ulster. The close connection between the Cole and Erle families in the west country of England as exemplified by the deal between John de Erlegh(VI) and an earlier John Cole seems to substantiate this legend. This first scenario is further discussed in the next chapter. The second scenario is that John Cole took advantage of the family connections to employ an Earls from a family already settled in Ireland. As discussed in Appendix 1D members of the Erley family probably followed the de Berminghams on the latter's incursions into Galway and Louth and it is possible that the historical Earls represent a branch of these early settlers. However the protestant religion of the historical Earls favors the first scenario. In either case the historical Earls would be descended from the de Erleghs detailed above.
My own opinion is that the weight of the evidence, flimsy though it may be, suggests that the historical Earls were imported from Devon or Somerset by the future Lord Enniskillen and are therefore connected in some way to the Erle family whose principal members we now proceed to document. The family tree for this continuation is included as Appendix 1B.
The churchwarden accounts for the parish of Ashburton, County Devon [36] for the years 1479-1580 indicate that a number of Erles were very active in the parish during that period. William Erle kept these accounts for the period 1485-1505 and is also mentioned in 1506/7; William's wife, Mabel Erle, also appears in the accounts for 1496/7 and 1497/8. In 1486/7 a sum is entered for the grave of Margaret Erle. Alice Erle occurs in 1490/91 and Henry Erle in 1487/8, 1492/3 and 1495/6. Robert Erle frequently appears during the period 1495-1523; he was the accountant for 1505/6/7 and his burial is recorded during 1531/2. Joan Erle died in 1509/10 and a gift from her daughter is noted. Thomas Erle, who in 1535/6 is identified as a pewterer, occurs in 1525/6, 1535/6, 1545/6 and 1555/6. Hugh Erle appears in 1556/7. Joan Erle, a widow, occurs in 1537/8, 1544/5 and 1545/6. Nicholas Erle was the accountant in 1568/69/70 and also appears in 1558/9, 1561/2 and 1566/7.
The John Erle(I), of Asburton, County Devon who married Margaret de Sondes must have been related to the Erles described in these parish records.

There appears to be a strong belief [37] that the Lincolnshire branch of the Earle family originated with Richard de Erlegh, younger son of John de Erlegh(V). However the first identifiable member of that family is Sir Richard Earle(I) of Stragglethorpe, Lincolnshire, who was made a baronet in 1629. He married Frances, daughter of Sir Edward Hardtop. They had at least four sons and a number of daughters as follows. The eldest son John must have predeceased his father for John's son Richard(II) succeeded his grandfather. The second son Richard(III), in turn, succeeded his nephew. The third son, Edward, was born about 1635 and probably died young. Another son William is of particular interest to us for he is claimed as the ancestor of a family of Earles in County Wexford, Ireland. According to Burke ``The Rev. William Earle, Curate of St. Clement's Danes, Strand, London, son of the late George Earle of Ballynahow in Gorey, County Wexford, claims to be the great-great-great-grandson of Robert Earle of Coolroe, County Wexford, who was said to be descended from a younger son (William) of 1st Baronet''. It might also be added that the Maryland Earles in the U.S.A. identify their founder as one James Earle whose will states that he was ``.. late of Ireland'' and therefore associate him with the Stragglethorpe branch. Finally we note that the only daughter to reach maturity was apparently Elizabeth who married a man called Thornage and had eight children.
Sir Richard Earle(II), grandson of Richard(I), succeeded his grandfather. However he died without issue and the title reverted to his uncle.
Sir Richard Earle(III), brother of Richard(I), succeeded his nephew and married Hellena, daughter of William Welby of Denton Hall, Lincolnshire and had a son and a daughter. He died about 1684.
Sir Richard Earle(IV), son of Richard(III), was born in 1673 and succeeded his father. He died unmarried in 1697 at the age of 24.
Though the lands passed to the Welbys there were many younger sons from earlier generations who perpetuated the Lincolnshire Earles.
There are at least two other major lineages of Earles detailed in reference [37] namely the Earles of Norfolk and the Earles of Lancashire. These will not be repeated here since they cannot be definitely connected with either the original de Erlegh family or with any Irish branch of the family. In any case the material already included in this chapter is more than sufficient to provide appropriate background. Our story should now move into the realm of our known ancestors.

A large, multi-state lottery in the United States, chief competitor to Powerball. It was formerly known as The Big Game, which is now the name of the company which runs Mega Millions. It reached a peak jackpot of $331 million in 2000.
You do not need to be a resident of any of these states to participate, but you must buy a ticket in these states. The Big Game is one of very few lottery operators that let you buy tickets on-line, as well. A winning ticket must be redeemed in the state where it was purchased.
Choose five numbers from a field of 52, plus a "Mega Ball" from a field of 52. Each play costs $1.00 ($2 if bought on-line). If you can't think of the numbers yourself, you can select an "Easy Pick" to let a random number generator do the thinking for you. You can win by matching one of the following nine combinations. Note that your Mega Ball selection doesn't count if it matches anything besides the Mega Ball drawn.

In 2007 Martin was the first recipient of the "Young Academic Researcher of the Year" award at the now annual King's Awards , and more recently he and his research team and collaborators were recipients of the London Development Agency Knowledge Transfer Award for Environmental Science. In 2009 Martin was recipient of the King's College London "Innovation and Impact" award.
Prior to joining King's Martin worked at the Natural Resources Institute, where his work focused on the development of Earth Observation as part of a suite of methods being applied for the purpose of extending environmental monitoring in developing countries. Areas of work included included vegetation, rainfall and lake/ocean monitoring, for such diverse applications as famine early warning, forest fire detection and limnological/fisheries investigations. An example of one of these projects can be found here related to study of large lake biodiversity.
The above areas of work remain a particular interest to this day, as does the use of infrared and thermal remote sensing approaches and their application to a wide variety of environmental investigations. A key current interest is in the quantifying the role of vegetation fires (biomass burning) plays in exchanges of material between the land surface and the atmosphere, and the development of remote sensing approaches to help address this question.

It seems that artist Mike Geno's paintings are made particularly for those with a keen interest in all different types of cheese. His latest series is in fact a vast collection of cheese paintings, portraying more types of dairy products than I even knew existed.
As a food-lover myself, I am thoroughly enjoying browsing through this series of food portraits, especially with all of the texture and detailing depicted so vividly. Forget the processed, pre-sliced products, clearly Geno is working with gourmet cheeses that would be the pride of any platter. Those who enjoy fine foods and have an affinity for dairy will want a few of these delectable artworks.
Mike Geno gives artisan cheese a new meaning with his paintings that picture types of cheese.

Experts say tax credit helpsinvestment in wind energy
December 14, 2012 by Jeff
Filed under Green Energy News
BILLINGS – The wind energy tax credit expires at the end of this year unless Congress takes action.
About 50 people came out to hear a forum of experts discussed the importance of renewing that credit, Thursday night at the MSU-Billings downtown campus.
The credit started in 1992 and was last renewed in 2009.
The experts talked about renewing the energy production tax credit or PTC. They say without the PTC, there will not be as much investment in wind energy.
The current law gives an income tax credit of 2.2 cents per kilowatt-hour for the production of electricity from utility-scale wind turbines.
Senate Max Baucus, chair of the Senate tax writing committee, sent legislation extending the credit to the full Senate.
The proponents say production tax credit is important in wind energy investment.
"You have to take advantage of everything that presents itself as an opportunity to Montana," said Chuck Tooley, moderator for the forum. "For investment, for employment, for whatever, and this is just one of those options for the portfolio."
"If the tax credits continue then we'll see more development of the farms in the state which bring more jobs for wind technicians," said Francisco Saldivar, lead Instructor of Sustainable Energy for City College at MSUB. " And the university is preparing to train those technicians that are needed so the jobs can stay in Montana."
Earlier Thursday, the Wind Energy Association proposed extending the credit for one year, and then phasing it out by 2018.
Meanwhile, the Institute for Energy Research says Congress should let the tax credit expire.

Just found out on Friday at my first doctor appt that I have two babies in my belly. I know it's still really early. Anyone else having twins??
not pregnant or ttc, but congrats!!! that is so exciting!!!
That's awesome, congrats! I'm a nanny for twins. They just turned two and they're a handful but I love it! It is so awesome watching them play and interact together. I'm actually hoping for twin boys one day but we'll see! Good luck!
Not anywhere close to even conceiving, but so happy for you! Fiance wants twins eventually, as well. Congrats again!
Aww I have twins its ace x
Congratulations!! Speaking as a twin myself, twins are the best!!
awwww so exciting! congrats! 🙂
Awwwww how exciting, congrats! Wishing you a healthy pregnancy 🙂
Ahhh no, just one here. But I have twin brothers, all I can say is GOOD LUCK! 🙂
Congratulations!!! My Fiance was sooooo scared I would be pregnant with twins (they run in my family) but it's just one bean in here. However, having grown up with a mom who is an identical twin I can attest how strong and intense their bond is. It also looks like a lot of FUN from an "outsider's" perspective. They're 60 years old now and they still dress the same and get the same hairstyle just for fun and also love to prank people mistaking one for the other. They also fight like crazy, but they can't live without each other. They used to live in neighboring buildings, now my mom moved to her twin's building! Just one floor apart. In my country, twins are considered a huge blessing and a struck of luck 🙂
ADBK2011: congrats! I know there was an expecting multiples thread awhile back in the pregnancy board, perhaps do a search for that!
ADBK2011: Congratulations! I am so excited for you! I saw your update on the November Babies thread. As a fellow November mama to be, I have not had my first appointment yet, and I can only imagine the surprise to see not one but TWO!!! So exciting!
Wow! Congratulations!
The topic 'Twins!!!' is closed to new replies.

Kevin Pietersen did his best to allay concerns over his troublesome Achilles injury ahead of the Ashes by declaring himself "practically 100 percent fit".
The former England captain is widely regarded as crucial to the home side's hopes of regaining the Ashes from Australia.
Former Australia leg-spinner Shane Warne, who was Pietersen's county captain at Hampshire, went even further by saying on Wednesday that England had no chance without the South Africa born star batsman.
"The one person England have to have is Kevin Pietersen," said Warne, who retired from Test cricket after Australia's thumping 5-0 Ashes series win on home soil in 2006-07.
"If England haven't got Pietersen I don't believe they can win. He's just a wonderful player."
Pietersen warned recently that if his injury, which was originally sustained during England's tour of the Caribbean earlier this year, flared up on the morning of a Test he would be ruled out.
But, speaking to Sky Sports on Thursday, he said: "I am nursing my injury at the moment, getting myself right. I'm practically 100 percent fit so I don't want any setbacks.
"It's real good news, I've been rehabbing every single day since the injury. The last couple of weeks I've done quite a lot of work so, fingers crossed, I am going to be pretty good for the whole summer."
Pietersen's 158 at the Oval four years ago in his debut Test campaign helped England secure the draw in the Ashes finale which left them as 2-1 series winners.
He also made 158 in the Adelaide Test of 2006.
In all his 52 Tests Pietersen averages 50.49 but in his 10 matches against Australia his average stands at 53.50.
The first Test of the current Ashes series is due to start in Cardiff on July 8.

cheater thank you cards
Hi, have we met? I'm totally lazy. If I can find a hack or an easy way around something, I'm totally going to take it.
I was, however, raised to be gracious and appreciative and to say, "thank you." That means thank you phone calls for birthday cards and thank you cards for birthday gifts. And seeing as Holdy's birthday was a few weeks ago, it was time to say thanks for the ridiculous amount of stuff she got.
Guess what: I hate writing thank you cards. They're time consuming and I always get such horrible writer's block and then I end up writing really stupid-sounding messages. The worst. But necessary, of course.
So I decided to cheat a little when it came to Holdy's thank you's. The idea was this: add a fun picture from the party, have a cute ready-made thank you poem printed inside and then write a super brief message that acknowledged the gift.
I googled "birthday thank you poem" and then found a first birthday thank you poem in an old Babycenter forum that I tweaked.
Here's what I ended up with:
Here's the poem:
The party is over. I'm officially ONE!
Thank you for coming;
I hope you had fun!
Sending big kisses,
from me to you.
See you next year,
when I turn TWO!
So far, no one has said that they were horribly offended by the card, so hopefully it was okay. I'm banking on it being so, because it's probably going to be my approach from here on out!

09:00-10:00 Meeting - Meet in the
Icicle office at 09:00, and get a short
briefing on equipment, weather and safety,
before setting off on your first run. We
understand that people are going to be a
little nervous, and it's important to get
running quickly to settle your nerves, to
put your mind at rest and to get teaching.
10:00-12:15 Running techniques -
Set out on an initial run, where the focus
is on teaching you a few key skills that
will enable you to run more efficiently,
which is essential for running ultras. You
are also taught ascent, descent and traversing
techniques on mountain terrain, and the
use of running with poles.
12:15-12:45 Lunch break - Typically
this takes the format of stopping to eat
your packed lunch whilst out on the hill.
In event of poor weather, we can always
find a dry location to stop. Make sure that
you take a small packed lunch with you when
you set off for the meeting at the start
of the day.
12:45-15:00 Runners navigation -
This is conducted as a mixture of walking
and running, where the aim is to not confuse
you with too many techniques, but the key
skills particular for mountain running navigation.
These include; setting the map, using a
compass, pacing, interpreting contours,
and route planning. For those groups who
prefer a longer run, this could replace
the night run.
15:00-16:30 Shower & rest - Time
off for you to get changed and freshen up.
16:30-17:30 Presentation - Based
inside in our office classroom, an illustrated
talk about running ultra events, training,
and how to adapt during a race event.
17:30-18:30 Discussion - Open group
discussion to share ideas on equipment,
race strategies, and mountain weather. Your
input is key to this session.
18:30-20:30 Evening meal - Time off
for you to go out and eat an evening meal,
though often the group opts to go together
to eat in a local pub or restaurant.
20:30-22:30 Night navigation event
- We are aware that you'll just have eaten,
so this starts as a walking pace, and as
your confidence grows, we will jog between
points. Wearing a head torch and running
in the dark is a new experience for many,
but don't worry as your instructor will
stick with you.
22:30-23:00 Beer o'Clock - After
such an action packed day, we try and make
sure that we finish in time to get to a
local pub before last orders for a pint
to toast the days efforts. The night navigation
event is done around Orrest Head fell, which
is just opposite our office in Windermere,
so is very close.
09:00-09:30 Meeting - At the Icicle
office, to have a quick review and refresher
of the key points learned the previous day,
then it's time for a detailed briefing on
the mini mountain race 'event' you'll be
running. This is operated as a realistic
mock event, so you consolidate what you've
learned, and the briefing covers the route,
conditions, equipment, weather and safety
09:30-10:00 Preparation time - There's
a short time for you to pack your bag and
to get any last minute things together for
running. If you are all set, then it's time
to study the map to work out the best race
route. Your instructor(s) will be on hand
to help advise you with any details.
10:00-14:30 Mini mountain race 'event'
- A course will have been set up, so you
can run via a series of checkpoints. The
instructor(s) will be running with or close
to you, so don't worry (too much) abour
getting lost. Set off with your maps marked
up, so you can easily follow your route,
and you'll soon find you can relax and enjoy
the running. Once the pressures of navigation
have gone, you can concentrate on the race,
and regulating your pace to the terrain.
Depending on the group, in larger groups
we might offer a choice of a faster longer
course, or a shorter slower route. In either
case, an instructor would always be with
you. The routes that we use for these mini
mountain race 'events' are varied, so we
can adapt to cater for typical Lakes weather!
We encourage people to run this event as
part of a pair, so you have extra safety,
and can share the navigation element. Two
minds are often better than one, especially
if you are tired.
14:30-15:30 Finish running race -
Finish running, and then to travel back
to the Windermere office. There are hot
drinks provided for everyone at the finish
to refuel, so there's an added incentive!
Debrief of the course over tea and coffee.
This is designed to provide you a last opportunity
for training points, or any queries about
the ultra you are planning to run in the
future. We
aim to finish by 15:40 on the Sunday, to
give you extra time to travel home.
ITINERARY NOTES: Where possible we follow
itineraries. Mountain adventures are weather
and conditions dependant, so occasionaly
we are forced to alter the plans. Please
use this outline itinerary as a guide to
the types of route / activity that you will
