This Thomas Carter died unmarried after having resided at Bilting in Godmersham for many years.
At the southern boundary of the parish, on the Ashford road, is the hamlet of Bilting, part of which is in Wye parish. There was a family of this name who once resided here, as appears by their wills so early as 1460. Richard Mocket, gent. of Challock, died in 1565, possessed of the manor of Biltyng-court, in Godmersham, which by his will he directed to be sold. At length this estate of Bilting came into the possession of the Carters. Thomas Carter, gent. of Bilting, second son of George Carter, gent. of Winchcombe, died possessed of it in 1707, s.p. After which it at length came to his nephew Thomas Carter, gent. of Godmersham, who dying in 1744, left two daughters his coheirs, the eldest of whom Mary, marrying Mr. Nicholas Rolfe, of Ashford, he became in her right possessed of her father's estate at Bilting. After which it became the residence of Mrs. Jane, the sister of the late Mr. Knight, and after her death in 1793, of Thomas Monypenny, esq. who afterwards removing from hence sold it in 1797, to Mr. Richard Sutton, who now resides at it.

RHODES-COURT is a manor situated in the south-east extremity of this parish, in the borough of the same name, which borough, though within the parish of Selling, is yet within the hundred of Faversham, the court leet of which claims over it. It was antiently written Rode, and la Rode, and was part of the possessions of the wealthy family of Badlesmere, one of whom, Bartholomew de Badlesmere, in the 9th year of king Edward II. obtained a grant of free-warren for all his demesne lands within this manor. His son Giles de Badlesmere dying in the 12th year of Edward III. s.p. leaving his four sisters his coheirs, (fn. 4) upon the division of their inheritance, this manor was, among others, allotted to Margaret, whose husband Sir John Tibetot, or Tiptost, as the name was usually called, became possessed of it in her right; his son Robert died without male issue, and this manor went into the colateral branch of that family, in which it continued down to John Tiptost, earl of Worcester, who, for his adherence to the house of York, was attained and beheaded in 1471, anno 10 Edward, IV. king Henry being then restored to the crown, through the successful services of Richard, earl of Warwick. He left by his second wife only one son Edward, then an infant, who, though he was afterwards restored in blood by Edward IV. I do not find that he was ever reinstated in the possession of this manor, which seems to have remained in the crown till the reign of Henry VIII. In the 26th year of which, anno 1534, Thomas Bealde, of Godmersham, died possessed of it, leaving two daughters, to whom he devised this manor.
After this it came into the possession of Christopher Tilghman, gent of this parish, who owned it in 1621, and he sold it to Thomas Carter, of Crundal, in whose family it remained till it was alienated by Thomas Carter. esq. of Crundal, in 1714, to Mr. George Smith, of Faversham, who died in 1763, and his son, of the same name, within these few years, sold it to John Sawbridge, esq. of Ollantigh, whose son Samuel-Elias Sawbridge, esq. is the present possessor of it.

This Valentine Austin is believed to be the Valentine Austin named in the Will of David A'Denne of Littlebourne dated during January 1585 as one of the Overseers. The relationship of this Valentine Austin to David A'Denne, the Testator, would be that of nephew to uncle, "...And I make my brother Michael Denne and Valentine Austen of Adisham my overseers of this my testament and I do give to either of them for their pains 10s apiece.
". This request also confirms that this particular Valentine Austin was still living during January 1585. | AUSTIN, Valentine (I12012)

This William Carter was of Canterbury, M.D. , Fellow of Oriel College, Oxford. He had no issue by his second marriage to Sophia Holworthy. | CARTER, William (I7276)

| 3164 |
This William was definitely deceased prior to the Wills left during 1591 and the following grant of administration may confirm this suspicion:
Canterbury act books, vol 3, 1584/5-1591, 69a Administration of the goods of William Ruck, Senior [sic] of Boughton-under-Blean to Ann Ruck, relative; Hamon Ruck of Selling, husbandman; and William Ruk [sic], of Boughton-under-Blean, pointmaker, bound in GB50 granted 21 January 1589.90. Inventory value GB24.18.10.
Furthermore, I have now re-thought the William Ruck and Anne Fowler/Fuller placement within the Rucke family numerous times and I am now more convinced than ever that that William was the son of John and Johan Ruck, many of whose children remained in the Selling-Sheldwich area. Having had the Will (30 May 1567) of William Ruck of Boughton-Blean for many years, I already knew that Ciriack [many and varied spellings on this name] was his son. I just wanted to be sure that I had the correct wife - Margaret, now known to be Margaret nee Carter. So, the two Williams can now be seen to be quite separate and distinct individuals.
For future reference, I came to my conclusion of which William was which, based on the Will of John Ruck of Boughton-Blean probated 27 February 1573 O.S.. That Will confirms that John had brothers Ciriack, Adam, and Matthew. Therefore, the Testator of the Will had to be the son of William Ruck of Boughton and not the son of John Ruck of Preston-Faversham.
The Will of John Ruck of Preston-Faversham (dated 1 Jan 1590 O.S. but probated 14 April 1591) confirms, foremost, that he was the son of John Rucke of Shepherd's Fostal. It also confirms that he died without having married or having had issue. In that Will, John left certain bequests to the children of his deceased brother, William. In all, the children of that William were named as being John, Margaret and Thomasin.
In 1599 John Rucke of Selling, father of this above-mentioned John left his Will naming one additional child of the deceased William - Martha. The event of Martha's addition to William's family would have to place William's own death likely shortly before 1 Jan 1590 O.S. with the birth of Martha occuring at some time over the next nine months. By 1610, however, the Will of Thomasin fails to mention any bequests to any of her deceased step-son William's children, more or less indicating that all of William's line had failed to survive up to that time. While the lack of a bequest to what would have been Thomasine's step-grandchildren is not concrete evidence of the demise of those not named, generally, during the 16th and 17th centuries it was quite common practice for a second marriage partner to be deemed to be the parent or grandparent of any children from a spouse's previous marriage. Accordingly, I find it to be highly unusual that, should any of William's children have been alive at the time of Thomasine's own decease, that some token bequest was not made to those children by Thomasine. | RUCK, William (I5285)

THOMAS CHICHE (5) fl 1384 - died c1429
It is with this Thomas that the pedigree in Harleian Manuscript 6081 begins. It tallies largely with what evidence I have found in public records. He married Alice, one of the two daughters of Thomas Ellis of Sandwich. The other daughter Constancia married William Notebeam (Just 1, Roll 1512, m41, 1-7 Henry VI). We know for certain that he had one son, John, although there may have been another, Thomas.
It is uncertain when he died but he was alive in 1432-1433.
In 8 Richard II (1384-1385) Thomas Chiche of Balverle was late the Esquire of Sir Roger de Northwood, son of Sir Geoffrey de Say (sic). In the same year Sir Roger Northwood granted the reversion of the manor of Norton to amongst others Thomas Chiche of Balverle (Archaeologica Cantiana)
On 8th January 1385, on 26th April 1385 and again on 24th April 1386 he was appointed a commissioner of array in view of the imminent invasion (of the French) (Patent Rolls).
On 13th March 1388 he was appointed to another commission (Patent Roll).
On 18th July 1392 the prioress of Davington on payment of £10 obtained a license for land to be alienated to her in mortmain by Thomas Chiche and others (Patent Roll).
His name occurs in the Canterbury corporation accounts. He was a jurat of the city in 1396-8; he was paid money owing to him in 1399-1400 and was described as a senior, ie common councillor of the city in 1400-1401.
On 13th June 1396 he witnessed a charter (CKS-CCA-DCc-ChAnt/H/111).
He lived at his manor of Balverle, his father at that of Goodnestone. After his father's death he is described as of both.
He and his wife Alice were issued with a precept by King Richard II to make a covenant between them and Richard Blakebroke and Alice his wife, relating to the moiety of 2 messuages and 3 acres of land in Newington-next-Sittingbourne; this is dated 20th May 19 Richard II (1396) (British Library, Additional Charter 36871).
On 3rd September 1397 he and his wife granted to John atte Halle of Sandwich a tenement in the parish of St Mary, in Sandwich, near Pillerigate. The 2nd seal attached to the charter is that of Chiche, bearing an armorial device and legend, neither of which are unfortunately described (Harvard Law School Library, English Deeds No 301). It may well be that this property came to him through his wife, whose father had owned property in Sandwich. As Thomas, the son of Thomas Chiche, knight, defendant, he entered into a fine with Henry Garnet and Sara his wife as querants. (British Library, Additional Charter 36538).
On 15th June 1395 he is described as Thomas Chiche, son and heir of Thomas Chiche of Balverle and of Joan his wife, late the wife of Simon de Bradstrete and daughter and heir of John Pycard. (Close Rolls)
In 1402 he witnessed a charter to land in Dargate, near Canterbury (Jacob MSS).
On 29th November 1402 he was appointed sheriff of Kent and keeper of the castle of Canterbury. An order was given to John Digge, late sheriff and keeper, to deliver the county to Thomas by indenture (Fine Rolls). He held this appointment until 5th October 1403, when Richard Cliderowe was appointed in his stead (Fine Rolls).
On 20th February 1404 he witnessed a charter being a demise of the manor of Ospringe, known as Queen's Court. (Close Rolls).
He was a member of Parliament for Canterbury, as on 20th March 1404 a writ de expensis was issued in his favour for the parliament summoned at Westminster on the morrow of St Hillary then last past, namely for 2s a day for a maximum of 75 days. Thomas Chiche of the Dungeon and John Sextayn, citizens of Canterbury, were paid £14 4s for 71 days.
In 1405 unspecified lands were transferred by Thomas Chiche, Thomas Waller, John Broke and Thomas Broke. Draper, to Richard Brenchley and Ann his wife (CKS-U1384/2/12/1).
On 17th July of that year there is an order to John Maystam, escheator of Kent, to take fealty of Thomas the son of John Chiche of Canterbury and Stephen Pertefyn and give them livery of the manor of Stanpets in the Isle of Sheppey. (Close Rolls). This is either a clerical error in that Thomas the son of Thomas is meant, or there is another branch of the family of which I am unaware.
On 15th July 1407 Richard Wellesbourne was pardoned for his outlawry in the county of Kent for not appearing before the justices of the bench to satisfy a debt of #5 to Thomas Chiche of the Dungeon (Patent Roll).
In 1412 he is shown as holding land in Ringslow, Witstable, Westgate, Downhamford, Eastry, Faversham and Tenham to the value in total of £77 10s (Feudal Aids).
A Court Roll of Westgate for a court held 25th January 14 Henry IV (1413) shows him owing suit of court and fined 6d, although he came to court (LP, ED 1786?)
On 18th April 1417 he was granted an exemption for life from being put on assizes, juries etc against his will (Patent Roll).
The register of Henry Chicheley states that on 5th February 1418 a chaplain was instituted to the rectory of Goodnestone, of which Thomas was patron. In 1422 another chaplain was instituted.
On 15th March 1418 he is described as a legatee of Henry Chicheley, Archbishop of Canterbury (BL, Additional Charter 16489).
In 6 Henry V (1418-1419) he acted as a pledge in an action brought by John Sheldwich and Isabella his wife against Marcellus Lechour in a plea of debt (CKS-CCA-Plea Rolls of Corporation of Canterbury, Roll J/B/217 m1).
He is mentioned in the abutments to a charter of his son John in 1421 (British Library, Harleian Charter 79 B 52).
In 1431 in the 100 of Westgate Thomas is stated to be seized of a free tenement and certain lands and tenements at Hallecourt and Balverle to the value of £5 yearly. It is stated he held other lands whose value was unknown (Feudal Aids). He is also shown to be seized of certain lands in the parish of All Saints in the Isle of Thanet to the value of £5 (Feudal Aids).
On 21st February 1432-3 he granted Thomas Poteman of Ospringe 1 acre and 4 dayworks land in Goldfeld in Ospringe which once belonged to Godin Terry. One of the witnesses to this deed is given as John Chycce, his son (DRc-T460-06).
On 28th May 1433 a chaplain was instituted to the rectory of Goodnestone, of which Thomas was patron.
It may well be that he had a son Thomas, who died without heirs male, for a rental of the manor of Balverle, Shyrte and Hallcourt states that Thomas Chiche is lord of that manor; yet a Thomas Chiche of the Dungeon pays 4s rent and 5 hens for land. The rental is undated, but stated to be tempus Henry VI (1422-1471) (BL, Harley Roll T15). This further corroberates the suggestion that he had a son of that name, although at a later date John is named as his son and heir. | CHICHE, Thomas (I11617)

Birth and Marriage[edit]
Richard FitzAlan, 11th Earl of Arundel; Thomas of Woodstock, 1st Duke of Gloucester; Thomas de Mowbray, Earl of Nottingham; Henry, Earl of Derby (later Henry IV); and Thomas de Beauchamp, 12th Earl of Warwick, throw down their gauntlets and demand Richard II to let them prove by arms the justice for their rebellion
He was the son of Thomas de Beauchamp, 11th Earl of Warwick and Katherine Mortimer,[2] a daughter of Roger Mortimer, 1st Earl of March, and succeeded his father in 1369. He married Margaret Ferrers, daughter of Sir William Ferrers, 3rd Baron Ferrers of Groby and Margaret d'Ufford, daughter of Robert d'Ufford, 1st Earl of Suffolk.
Royal Service[edit]
Seal of Thomas de Beauchamp, 12th Earl of Warwick
Knighted around 1355,[2] Beauchamp accompanied John of Gaunt in campaigns in France in 1373, and around that time was made a Knight of the Garter. In the parliaments of 1376 and 1377 he was one of those appointed to supervise reform of King Richard II's government. When these were not as effective as hoped, Beauchamp was made Governor over the King. In 1377, or 1378, he granted the manors of Croome Adam (now Earls Croome) in Worcestershire and Grafton Flyford in Warwickshire to Henry de Ardern for a red rose.[3] Between 1377 and 1378 he was appointed Admiral of the North. Beauchamp brought a large contingent of soldiers and archers to King Richard's Scottish campaign of 1385.
Conflict with King Richard II[edit]
In 1387 he was one of the Lords Appellant, who endeavored to separate Richard from his favorites. After Richard regained power, Beauchamp retired to his estates, but was charged with high treason in 1397, supposedly as a part of the Earl of Arundel's alleged conspiracy. He was imprisoned in the Tower of London (in what is now known as the "Beauchamp Tower"), pleaded guilty and threw himself on the mercy of the king. He forfeited his estates and titles, and was sentenced to life imprisonment on the Isle of Man. The next year, however, he was moved back to the Tower, until he was released in August 1399 after Henry Bolingbroke's initial victories over King Richard II.
Restored by Henry IV[edit]
After Bolingbroke deposed Richard and became king as Henry IV, Beauchamp was restored to his titles and estates. He was one of those who urged the new King to murder Richard, and accompanied King Henry against the rebellion of 1400.

Thomas de Clare, Lord of Thomond (1244×1247[1] – 29 August 1287) was a Hiberno-Norman peer and soldier. He was the second son of Richard de Clare, 6th Earl of Gloucester and his wife Maud de Lacy, Countess of Gloucester. In 1272 he served a term as Lieutenant of the Duchy of Aquitaine.[1] On 26 January 1276 he was granted the Lordship of Thomond by Edward I of England; he spent the next eight years attempting to conquer it from the O'Brien dynasty, kings of Thomond.

Career
Thomas was born in about 1245 in Tonbridge, Kent, England, the second eldest son of Richard de Clare and Maud de Lacy.[2] He and his brother Bogo received gifts from King Henry III when they were studying at Oxford from 1257–59.[3] Thomas was a close friend and intimate advisor of Prince Edward of England, who would in 1272 accede to the throne as King Edward I. Together they took part in the Ninth Crusade. He held many important posts such as Governor of Colchester Castle (1266) and Governor of The City of London (1273). He was made Commander of the English forces in Munster, Ireland and created Lord of Inchiquin and Youghal. On 26 January 1276, he was granted the entire lordship of Thomond by King Edward.
That same year, he jointly commanded a Norman army along with Sir Geoffrey de Geneville, Justiciar of Ireland against the Irish clans of County Wicklow. They were joined by a contingent of men from Connacht led by his father-in-law Maurice FitzGerald, 3rd Lord of Offaly. Thomas and Justiciar de Geneville's forces attacked the Irish at Glenmalure, but they were soundly defeated and suffered severe losses.[4]
Civil War in Thomond
Civil war raged in Thomond between the rival factions of the O'Brien dynasty. In 1276, Brian Ruad, the deposed King of Thomond appealed to Thomas for support to help him regain his kingdom from his great-nephew Toirrdelbach MacTaidg O' Brien, who had usurped the throne. In return for his aid, Brian Ruad promised that Thomas would be allowed to colonise all the land between Athsollus in Quin and Limerick.[5] Together, Thomas and Brian Ruad expelled Toirrdelbach MacTaidg O'Brien and recaptured Clonroad which the latter had taken from Brian Ruad. O'Brien escaped to Galway where he elicited the help of his cousin William de Burgh, and in 1277 together with the assistance from clans, MacNamara and O'Dea they defeated the combined forces of Thomas and Brian Ruad. The latter fled to Bunratty Castle, but Thomas had his former ally hanged and drawn for treason.[6] The civil war continued for the next seven years, with Thomas supporting Brian Ruad's son Donnchad against Toirrdelbach; however, following the drowning death of Donnchad in 1284, Toirrdelbach emerged the victor. Thereafter until his death in 1306, Toirrdelbach MacTaidg O'Brien ruled as undisputed King of Thomond and Thomas had no choice but to accommodate him. O'Brien rented part of Bunratty Manor at £121 per annum.[6] In 1280, Thomas embarked on a castle-building project at Quin, but was disrupted in his efforts by the O'Briens and MacNamaras. Thomas also reconstructed Bunratty Castle in stone, replacing the earlier wooden building.
Marriage and children
In February 1275, he married Juliana FitzGerald, the 12-year-old daughter of Maurice FitzGerald, 3rd Lord of Offaly and Maud de Prendergast.[7] During their marriage, Thomas and Juliana lived in Ireland and in England. For instance, on 5 May 1284 the King notified his bailiffs and lieges in Ireland of the attorneys who were to act in Ireland on behalf of the couple as they were then in England. This arrangement was to continue for three years, except when Thomas and Juliana went to Ireland.[8]
Thomas and Juliana had four children:
Maud de Clare (1276–1327), married firstly, Robert de Clifford, 1st Baron de Clifford, by whom she had issue; and secondly Robert de Welles, 2nd Baron Welles.
Gilbert de Clare, Lord of Thomond, (3 February 1281 – 1308)
Richard de Clare, Steward of Forest of Essex, 1st Lord Clare, Lord of Thomond (after 1281 – 10 May 1318), married a woman by the name of Joan, by whom he had one son, Thomas. He was killed at the Battle of Dysert O'Dea.
Margaret de Clare (c. 1 April 1287 – 22 October 1333/3 January 1334), married firstly, Gilbert de Umfraville; and secondly Bartholomew de Badlesmere, 1st Baron Badlesmere, by whom she had issue.
Death
When evidence was taken in 1302 to prove the age of his son Gilbert, it was established that Thomas had died on 29 August 1287.[9] A mid-18th century compilation known as the Dublin Annals of Inisfallen states that Thomas was killed in battle against Turlough son of Teige and others. However, none of the earlier records of his death indicate that Thomas met a violent end. Some of the witnesses to Gilbert's age in 1302 referred to the date of Thomas' death in their calculations but all were silent as to its circumstances. This and much other evidence on the subject has been set out and evaluated by Goddard Henry Orpen of Trinity College, Dublin.[10] Thomas was succeeded as Lord of Thomond by his eldest son, Gilbert who was six years old. His widow Juliana, aged 24 years, would go on to marry two more times.

Calendar of Documents relating to Ireland, 1285–1292, No. 1142 summarises a Final concord made on 18 February 1274/5 in which Maurice Fitz Maurice (which was the patronymic version of the name of Juliana's father) agreed that specified property would come to Thomas and his heirs begotten of Juliana his wife if Maurice died without male heirs of his own. This arrangement appears to have been Thomas and Juliana's marriage settlement.

THOMAS de Maurienne, son of HUMBERT III Comte de Maurienne et de Savoie & his fourth wife Béatrix de Vienne [Bourgogne-Comté] (Château de Carbonara 1178 after 26 Jun-Moncalieri 1 Mar 1233, bur Saint-Michel de la Cluse). An undated charter records a donation to Saint-Maurice by "felicis memorie Humbertus…Savoie comes" and the confirmation by "Thomas filius eiusdem comitis". He succeeded his father in 1189 as THOMAS I Comte de Maurienne et de Savoie, under the regency of Guglielmo V Marchese di Monferrato who brokered a favourable settlement to Comte Humbert III's dispute with the empire. As Marchese Guglielmo was absent in Palestine at the time of the death of Comte Humbert III, the regency was presumably held and the negotiations carried out by his son Bonifazio, who succeeded as Marchese di Monferrato in 1192. This hypothesis appears confirmed by the following charter. "Thomas…Mauriannensis comes et marchio Italiæ" confirmed the donations made by "pater meus…[et] domini comitis Humberti…abavi mei" to the canons of Saint-Jean de Maurienne, with the advice of "B. matris mee et…tutore meo Bonifacio marchione Montisferrati", by charter dated 12 Jun 1189. "Thomæ comitis et marchionis…et…Nichola filia comitis Gebennarum" granted privileges to the citizen of Susa by charter dated 25 Feb 1198. He used the title Comte de Savoie. "Thomas comes Sabaud. et Amedeus eius filius" granted rights to the abbey of San Marco by charter dated 5 Mar 1200. Comte Thomas supported the imperial party over the Guelfs, and was appointed Imperial Vicar in Italy. Philipp King of Germany granted him Moudon in Vaud, and Chieri and Testona in Piemonte in 1207. He also acquired Carignano, Pinerolo, Moncalieri, Vigone, Albenga and Savona in Piemonte. "Thomas Maurianensis comes et marchio" donated property to the abbey of Saint-Maurice, with the consent of "filiis suis Amedeo et Humberto", by charter dated 8 Nov 1217. A charter dated 1224 records an agreement between "Thomæ com. Sabaud" and the bishop of Sion, witnessed by "ipse Thomas comes, Amedeus primogenitus illius, Comitissa uxor Thomæ, eorum quatuor filii clerici…Willelmus, Thomas, Petrus et Bonifacius". He bought the town of Chambéry in 1232. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the death in 1232 of "comitis Thome de Sabaudia". An indication of the precarious financial position of the counts of Savoy is provided by a third testament, dated 2 Nov 1240, made by Thomas´s son "Amadeus com Sab. et marchio in Italia" who repeated the nomination of "Thomæ, Flandriæ comiti, fratri suo" as his heir to "totius comitatus sui Sabaudiæ marchionatus Italiæ et ducatus Chablasii" if he died without male children, on condition that he satisfied all the debts of "Thomæ comitis patris et Humberti fratris ipsorum".
m ([1196]) MARGUERITE [Beatrix] de Genève, daughter of GUILLAUME [I] Comte de Genève & his second wife Béatrix de Faucigny (-8 Apr 1257, bur Abbaye de Hautecombe). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Margareta filia domni de Fusceneis de matre Guilelmi, filii Humberti comitis Gebenensis" as wife of "comitis Thome de Sabaudia". As noted below, Marguerite is also called Beatrix in later sources. No explanation has been found for these dual names. The fact that "Beatrix" appears in a seal shows that it was not a transcription error. "Thomæ comitis et marchionis…et…Nichola [presumably a transcription error] filia comitis Gebennarum" granted privileges to the citizen of Susa by charter dated 25 Feb 1198. The Complete Peerage refers to unspecified "later writers" having evolved an incorrect theory that Thomas I Comte de Maurienne was married firstly to Béatrix and, after her death without issue, secondly to Marguerite, daughter of Guillaume de Faucigny, who was the mother of his children. The same source confirms that the two names in fact refer to the same person. A charter dated 1224 records an agreement between "Thomæ com. Sabaud" and the bishop of Sion, witnessed by "ipse Thomas comes, Amedeus primogenitus illius, Comitissa uxor Thomæ, eorum quatuor filii clerici…Willelmus, Thomas, Petrus et Bonifacius". "M. comitissa Maurian. uxor Thomæ comitis Maurianensis et marchionis Italiæ" donated property, with the consent of "Thomas com. Maurianæ et filii mei Amedeus et Aymo", by charter dated Dec 1227. "M. comitissa Sabaudie et marchisa in Ytalia et…Amedeus, Aymo, W. electus Valentinus, Thomas, Petrus, Bonifacius et Philippus filii Thome Comitis Sab. et marchionis in Ytalia" confirmed donations to Hautecombe abbey by charter dated 26 Feb 1231. "Beatrix uxor comitis Thomæ, Amadeus primogenitus et Aymo filii eius" confirmed the purchase of Chambéry by "Thoma comite" by charter dated 1232, with the seal of "Beatricis comitisse Sabaudie". "Amedeus comes Sabaudie et in Italie marchio…cum…genetrice sua et fratribus suis B. Bellicensi Electo et Philippo Metensi Primicerio" granted "villam S. Mauritii de Chablaisio" {Saint-Maurice de Chablais} to "soror illorum Margareta comitissa de Kiborch" by charter dated 24 Feb 1240. "Contessa Margarita di Savoia Marchesa in Italia" donated property to "Tomaso suo figlio Conte di Fiandra e d'Hainaut" with the consent of "Conte Amedeo di Savoia suo figlio Primogenito", by charter dated 4 Jan 1244. The Pingonio Chronicon records the death "VI Id Apr" in 1257 of "Domina Beatrix de Gebennis comitissa Sabaudie et domina de Narembors, parens comitum Sabaudie".

Thomas Digges, soldier and mathematician, was the son of Leonard Digges, and an equally illustrious mathematician. He was born, probably at Wotton Court, near Canterbury, which had been purchased by his father. He was at the same time a soldier, and held the commission of Muster-master-general to the forces in the Netherlands, sent by Elizabeth. Besides revising his father's works he wrote several of his own, and drew up a plan for the improvement of the harbour and mole of Dover, 1582. He died 1595, and was buried in the church of Aldermanbury, in London.

Some Monumental Inscriptions of Chilham Church, Noted by Rev Bryan Faussett noted 1757 In The Chancell.
1. Within a Large Nitch or Arch, without ye Communion Rails, in ye North Wall, is an exceeding Handsome Monument of Black Marble, very curiously Carv’d and wrought; it stands on a very fine Altar Tomb, of ye same Materials; and is supported by 4 Pillars. This Monument has 2 different Faces, or Fronts, in ye Middle of which, on two Black Tables, are ye Following Inscriptions in Gold Letters. Round about, and on ye Top of it are Many Coats of Arms of PALMER, DIGGES, etc., some of which are almost effaced. This Fine Monument stood formerly, on ye Same Side of the Chancell, within the Rails, about 4 Yards nearer ye Altar; but was removed to the Place where it now stands, by ye COLEBROOKEs, when they built their Mausoleum or Repository for ye Dead of their Family, about ye Year 1752. The Bones of this good old Lady, were, at ye same Time taken up, and reinterrd, in a New Coffin, under her Monument where it is now placed. The Arms of this Family of PALMER, are ye Following. (See GUILLIM, p. 194). [Arg. 2 bars sa. the upper with 2, the lower with 1 trefoil slipped or, in chief a greyhound courant sa.]. On ye Tablet on ye South Side. Sir Anthony Palmer, Knight of ye Bath erected this Monument in Memorial of D. Margaret, Sister of Sr. Dudley DIGGES of Chilham Castle Knight, his late Loving, Loved Wife, whose Goodness where she lived, and died, since it cannot be buried, in Putney, needs no Epitaph. She was Fairer than Most Women; Wiser than most Men; Neither, in her own Opinion, longer than she pleas’d her Husband, Whose only Daughter, by a Former Wife, She more love’d and cherish’d, than most Wives do their own. Few were so respectfull of their Husband, as She was of her Brother. Few Sisters so affectionately kind unto their Brothers, as She was to her Friends. Few Friends (if any), so chearfully ready to give Councel, Comfort, or Releif, as She was to ye Poor; upon whose Sickness, Lameness, Blindness, her charitable Hands wrought daily cures like Miracles; for Which (no Doubt) God blessed Her with a Threefold Issue, John, Dudley, Anthony. Like her Thoughts, Words, Works, all perfect, Masculine. Of which, although ye blessed First (like to her pious Meditations) stay’d little in this World; The other Two yet live, like those Fruits of her vertuous Knowlege, her Speeches, and her Actions; still calling to Remembrance ye Modest, Awefull, and yet ever witty, pleasing Conversation of her whole Life, that never knew Man’s ill Affection or Womans Envy. On ye Tablet on ye N. Side. Reader, know; This Margaret Lady PALMER, in ye 33d. Year of her Age, died, most Christianly, at Putney, in Surrey, The 22d. of September, 1619. In Whose Memory This Monument was set up, by her Husband; Whose Grief says, her Virtues and Abilities, far above ye Power of her Sex, did shew more lively in her Actions, than weak Words can express; and took away wth. her, at her Departure, so much Joy from him and her Friends, as only Heaven can repaire.

Thou mays’t behold ye Grave of his Person, not of his Memory. What was earthly is sunk down into ye Land where all Things are forgotten: but ye Remembrance of his great Example will live through Age, ye Disease of Stones as well as Men; The Witness of his Death, This Tomb itself, shall die. The Story of his Life May be ye Rule of Ours. His Understanding few can equal; his Virtues fewer will. He was, a Pious Son; a Carefull Father; a Loving Husband; a Fatherly Brother; a Courteous Neighbour; a Mercyfull Landlord; a Liberal Master; a Noble Friend. When, after much Experience gain’d by Travel, and an exact Survey of ye Laws and People of foreigne Kingdoms, he had enabled himself for ye serving of his Country, observing too Many justle for Place, and cross ye Publick Interest if not joyn’d with their private Gain, hindring ye Motion of ye Great Body of ye Common Wealth, unless ye inferior Orbe of their Estates were advanced thereby; He was satisfied with ye Conscience of Merit; knowing, Good Men only can deserve Honours, ‘tho ye worst may attain them; his Noble Soul could not stoop to Ambition, nor be a beholding that, (‘tho ye most generous Vice) for an Occasion to exercise his Virtues. Out of such Apprehensions his moderate Desires confined his Thoughts to ye Innocency of a retired Life: When the most knowing of Princes, KING JAMES, who ever made Choice of the most knowing Ministers, judging none more equal to Employments, than those who wd. not unworthily court them, sent him Embassador to the EMPEROR of RUSSIA after his Return, and some Years conscionably spent in ye Service to the State, being unbiass’d by Popular Applause, or Court Hopes, he was made Master of ye Rolls. This did crown his former Actions; and, ‘tho it cd. not increase his Integrity, it made it more conspicuous: and, whom his Acquaintance, before, now, ye Kingdom honourd. If ye Example of his Justice had Powerfull Influence on all Magistrates, ye People who are governd wd. be happy upon Earth; and, ye Rulers, in Heaven, with him, who counted it an unworthy Thing to be tempted to Vice, by ye Reward of Virtue.

In humble Imitation, for sacred Memory of a most virtuous Lady, that so died, alas, late, like Rachell Lovely, Loving, and beloved. Like Leah, fruitfull Mother of 8 Sons and 3 Daughters. Without Blemish, without Blame, through her (like Rebecca’s) tender and religious Care.

Thomas Holland, 2nd Baron Holand, and jure uxoris 1st Earl of Kent, KG (c. 1314 - 26 December 1360) was an English nobleman and military commander during the Hundred Years' War.
Early life
He was from a gentry family in Upholland, Lancashire. He was a son of Robert de Holland, 1st Baron Holand and Maud la Zouche. One of his brothers was Otho Holand, who was also made a Knight of the Garter.
Military career
In his early military career, he fought in Flanders. He was engaged, in 1340, in the English expedition into Flanders and sent, two years later, with Sir John D'Artevelle to Bayonne, to defend the Gascon frontier against the French. In 1343, he was again on service in France. In 1346, he attended King Edward III into Normandy in the immediate retinue of the Earl of Warwick; and, at the taking of Caen, the Count of Eu and Guînes, Constable of France, and the Count De Tancarville surrendered themselves to him as prisoners. At the Battle of Crécy, he was one of the principal commanders in the vanguard under the Prince of Wales and he, afterwards, served at the Siege of Calais in 1346-7. In 1348, he was invested as one of the founders and 13th Knight of the new Order of the Garter.[1]
Around the same time as, or before, his first expedition, he secretly married the 12-year-old Joan of Kent, daughter of Edmund of Woodstock, 1st Earl of Kent and Margaret Wake, granddaughter of Edward I and Margaret of France. However, during his absence on foreign service, Joan, under pressure from her family, contracted another marriage with William Montacute, 2nd Earl of Salisbury (of whose household Holland had been seneschal). This second marriage was annulled in 1349, when Joan's previous marriage with Holland was proved to the satisfaction of the papal commissioners. Joan was ordered by the Pope to return to her husband and live with him as his lawful wife, which she did, and had 4 children by him.
Between 1353 and 1356, he was summoned to Parliament as Baron de Holland.[citation needed] His brother-in-law John, Earl of Kent, died in 1352, and Holland became Earl of Kent in right of his wife, although it was in 1360 that he was summoned to Parliament with that title.[2]
In 1354, Holland was the king's lieutenant in Brittany during the minority of the Duke of Brittany, and in 1359 co-captain-general for all the English continental possessions.
Holland died of illness[3] in Normandy on 28 December 1360.[2] He was succeeded as baron by his son Thomas, the earldom still being held by his wife (though the son later became Earl in his own right). Another son, John, became Earl of Huntingdon and Duke of Exeter.
Children
Thomas and Joan of Kent had five children:
Thomas Holland, 2nd Earl of Kent
John Holland, 1st Duke of Exeter
Joan Holland, who married John IV, Duke of Brittany
Maud Holland, married firstly Hugh Courtenay grandson of Hugh de Courtenay, 10th Earl of Devon and secondly, Waleran III of Luxembourg, Count of Ligny
Edmund Holland (c. 1354), who died young

Thomas married Christina Baxter, the daughter of James Baxter, at Gillingham Parish Church on 20 Sept 1879. Thomas was 21 and Christina was 25 years old. There were no family witnesses to the marriage and Thomas stated that he was a Clerk.
In 1881 Thomas and Christina were living at 205 Milkwood Road, Lambeth, Surrey. he was a railway clerk. Thomas died on 24 February 1898. At the time he was a station master and lived at borough Green, near Sevenoaks, Kent. Thomas' Will was proved on 18 May 1898. The net value of his estate was GB314. | KENNETT, Thomas Mackie (I4752)

Thomas Nutt Streeter married Caroline of Preston circa 1865 and had their first three children there: Ernest Henry, Frank and Annie. Thomas, at the time of the 1871 census, was working as a carpenter's labourer and the family lived on Nelson Street in the Brents.
By 1881 the last three children had been born: George, William and Percy. Thomas was then working as a coach painter and the family had moved to 1 Church Road in Faversham town. Ernest Henry was also working at that time, as a cashier at the local co-op store. Annie was absent from the census and it is not known at this time if she had actually died prior to the census. | STREETER, Thomas Nutt (I3176)

Thomas received a bequest from the Will of his step-father, John Porredge, which gave to him "one-half my lease of lands called Denley in Hernhill held of Mr. Parker". This bequest was further clarified as "...my wife's son, Thomas Ruck, to occupy for ten years my tenement and lands in Hernehill and Boughton-under-Blean which I purchased of one Frognall, paying to my son Edward [Porredge] ten pounds a year".

Thomas Ruck of this parish [Ospringe] and Elizabeth Broad of Faversham, married by Francis Giraud, Vicar of Preston | Family (F506)
|
| 3181 |
Thomas was born and christened at Ospringe during 1808. He married his sister-in-law, Ann Gregory, on June 18, 1831 at Preston and together they produced eleven children: Mary Ann who died shortly after her first birthday; George, a mariner; Thomas, Jr., who eventually worked as a fisherman and beer retailer; Samuel a mariner whose ultimate fate was to drown during a storm at sea; Emma; Ellen; Alice; and Daniel Walter, also who eventually became a mariner. Two other of Thomas and Ann's children died during their infancy: Thomas born during 1836 and Ann born during 1844. Frederick John, who was born during 1849 died two months prior to his 7th birthday.
In 1841 Thomas, a shipwright like his father, and family were living with John and Judith Gregory - Ann's parents. By 1851 Thomas and family had moved to Flood Lane and George, at age 16, was already working as a mariner. Thomas was still employed as a shipwright.
As of the 1861 census, Thomas and family were living on Tanner Street at a place called "Friendship". He was still working as a shipwright and the family had taken in three boarders all from Westall, Suffolk and all of whom were labourers in the local brickfields. One of the boarders, George Card, was eventually to become Thomas' son-in-law, marying Emma on 31 January 1864. In 1861, however, Emma was working as a general servant.
By 1871 Thomas, at age 67, was an unemployed ship builder living on Flood Lane. Ann had died and Thomas had remarried, Sarah, herself a widow. Living with them was Sarah's daughter, Mary A. Wraight, 19, who was working as a general domestic servant and I fear the only source of income for the household. Thomas and his second wife moved to Halling prior to the census of 1881. There, Thomas found employment as a carpenter.
Author Richard Hugh Perks states "my first reference is in the 1865 Mercantile Navy List where he [Thomas Milsted] appears as owner of the fishing smack ROYAL GEORGE. This may be the same THOMAS MILSTED who purchased the small fishing bawley NANCY in 1896 (Reference Fa 3/1 Fishing Register)."
It is my belief that the Thomas Milsted who owned the Royal George is this particular Thomas and that it was his son, Thomas who purchased the NANCY. | MILSTED, Thomas (I2596)
|
| 3182 |
Thomas William Milsted had married and started his family five year prior to the loss of his mother (1863). He and his family lived on Bridge Place in Preston at the time of the 1861 census. Thomas was then working as a fisherman.
By 1871 Thomas and family had moved over to The Brents. He was still working as a fisherman and had had four more children. Thomas had also taken on the job as the local beer retailer at the Albion in Preston.
As of 1881 the family had moved again, this time to 5 Manor Place. Thomas was still working as a mariner but had relinquished his stint as beer retailer. Living with them was a woman by the name of Elizabeth Bushnell, referred to as Thomas' aunt. I suspect that, in fact, she was the aunt of his wife. Elizabeth Bushnell was born at Shepherdswell, kent and was a widow.
Sarah Ann, Thomas's wife, did not life to see any of her grandchildren, she having died during December of 1884. The 1891 census found Thomas living at 1 Mendfield Street with his in-laws, Thomas and Frances Millen. George had married and had two children of his own - Frank Thomas and Dorothy Ruth. In 1891 they were living at 46 St. John's Road and George was working as a railway porter.
Emily was still at home in 1891 along with her daughter, Lilly, who had been born during 1888. Also, as of 1891 Thomas, III was working as a porter at the workhouse in Herne. | MILSTED, Thomas William (I2618)

Three apprenticeship indentures exist that involve this William Ruck. First is an indenture for William Ruck son of Simon Ruck of Chilham, yeoman, to apprentice for Samuel Steemson of the Mason's Company dated 15 October 1729. Second is an indenture in favour of William Ruck of the Mason's Company dated 12 Jan 1749 to take on an apprentice named William Thomas the son of William Thomas of Chilham, a cooper. The third is another indenture in favour of William Ruck of the Mason's Company dated 7 June 1751 to take on an additional apprentice, John Kennngton son of John of Oxford, Oxfordshire, Gent. Unfortunately, none of the indenture extracts specify where William Ruck apprenticed or where he was living during 1749 and 1751. These extracts were taken from the English Origins site. | RUCK, William (I5624)

Through information posted on the Internet concerning the family of Porredge/Pordage I learned that Margaret is allegedly the sister of George Carter. There is an Archdeaconry Will for a George Carter of Crundale and Margaret's Will as well available through the LDS.
Through the Will of her second husband, John Porredge, Margaret and three of her sons received numerous bequests of property, real and personal, as well as money. Margaret was bequeathed 30 pounds, furniture, brass and household goods. She also received all linen and woollen yarn and linen and woollen cloth not cut to be divided with her step-son, Edward Porredge. Margaret was also bequeathed one of the new chambers in the tenement at St. Dunstan's, Canterbury and sufficient meat and drink, fire and washing allowed by Edward Porredge during Margaret's widowhood. She was also to receive an annuity of 8 pounds per year for the remainder of her life as well as a tenement and grounds in St. Dunstan's which was then in the occupation of Bartholomew Rowell. This latter property was to revert to her son Richard Ruck upon Margaret's death.
Through the Will of Margaret's son, John, there is a bequest to his "aunt, wife of Matthew Spencer". As there are no female children mentioned in the Will of John Rucke, the elder or any unaccounted for female mentioned in the Will of William Rucke, John's father, I have assigned Margaret a sister who would be the wife of Matthew Spencer. | CARTER, Margaret (I3622)

Through the Will of his brother Adam, Thomas received substantial real property holdings vizt, Harmon Sole in Nether Hardres, property in Upper Hardres, Thornton Field in Petham, Thornton Garden in St. Lawrence, Thanet and property in St. George Canterbury.

Throughout his life and, indeed, on every document available, save the original christening entry, Stephen was referred to as James. I found this to be highly unusual but eventually found the answer in a handwritten note that had been inserted amongst the pages of the Faversham parish register during 1800/1801. There is something mysterious about James and his family. For some reason he segregated himself from the rest of his family and never did their paths seem to cross. He married Mercy Taylor of Minster, Sheppey on 3 March 1798. It was the witnesses to the marriage that first brought to light for me that Stephen and James were one and the same person: Mary Nutt and her soon-to-be-husband, John Milsted, were the witnesses for the marriage of James and Mercy.
Of James and Mercy's eleven children only 4 survived. Sarah, his third child died at age 17, Catherine died at age 15, Mercy at 23 and Sarah Eliza at 18. Mercy did have one child - Mary Sills Nutt christened on 24 January 1830. Unfortunately, this little girl also died during March of 1835.
At the time of Mercy's (James' wife) death in February of 1847 the family was living on Abbey Street. By 1861, however, James had moved over to Hog Island and despite his advanced age was still working as a dredger. | NUTT, Stephen aka James (I2896)

New developments in DNA testing of the recently found Richard III has revealed that there has been a NPE somewhere within the 19 generations between the Duke of Beaufort and Richard III. There is no link in DNA between the descendants alive today of the 5th Duke of Beaufort and Richard III. There are 5 potential break points that would affect descent of the current royal houses to Edward III.

January 13, 1396: "John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, marries Lady Katherine Swynford, the mother of his four Beaufort children, in Lincoln Cathedral.
The marriage was a remarkable decision; rarely did royal princes marry their mistresses, and Gaunt had very publicly rejected Katherine fifteen years earlier during the aftermath of the Peasants Revolt. Gaunt's third marriage, and Katherine's second, it was inevitable the union would incur scathing criticism once it became widely known; the ecclesiastical chronicler Thomas Walsingham cynically noted that the marriage occurred ‘to the amazement of all at such a miraculous happening, for she had a very small fortune’, before scornfully adding ‘Such was the magnitude of his error’. The Burgundian chronicler Jean Froissart meanwhile believed the wedding had ‘caused much astonishment in France and England as she was of humble birth’.
This criticism was slightly unfair; disregarding Gaunt’s incomparable wealth and obvious lack of need for further prosperity, it’s clear Katherine was an amiable lady with a charming nature that appealed to the duke. She had retained his affections in the face of enforced separation, public vilification, social ostracism and violent uprisings. Put simply, John of Gaunt didn’t marry Katherine Swnyford out of gratitude or duty, he married her precisely because that was what he wanted to do.
The marriage also paved the way for the legitimisation of the couple's four Beaufort children, which occurred over the following year. This would have far-reaching consequences, as in 1485 their great-great grandson Henry Tudor was propelled towards the throne of England using the Royal blood he inherited from his Beaufort forebears." - Nathen Amin, author of 'The House of Beaufort: The Bastard Line that Captured the Crown' | GAUNT, Duke of Lancaster, Titular King of Castile & Leon, John of (I1741)
