Born at St James's, 6 February, 1665 ; married George, son of Frederick III, King of Denmark, in 1683, leaving no surviving issue; died at Kensington, i August, 1714. By the Act of Settlement, 1701, which excluded all Roman Catholics from succession to the throne, not only the children of James II by Mary of Modena were made incapable of succeeding to the Crown of England, but also the descendants of Henrietta Anne, Duchess of Orleans, daughter of Charles I, those of Charles Louis, Elector- Palatine, the eldest son of Elizabeth, daughter of James I, and those of Edward, fourth son of Elizabeth. The senior of these descendants at the present day is H.R.H, Mary Theresa, niece and heiress of the late Duke of Modena and consort of H.R.H. Prince Louis of Bavaria, by whom she has issue. A SKETCH OF THE FAMILY OF CROMWELL OR WILLIAMS About the year 1450 John Cromwell, a fuller of Norvvell near Cromwell, a village about five miles north of Newark in Nottinghamshire, went to live in Surrey. He obtained in 1452 from the Archbishop of Canterbury, then Lord of the Manor, a lease for twenty-one years of a fulling-mill together with a house and six acres of land on the banks of the river Wandle in the manor of Wimbledon. This John Cromwell was in all probability a kinsman of Baron Ralph de Cromwell, of Tattershall Castle, Lincoln- shire, the Lord High Treasurer of England under Henry VI. Baron Ralph de Cromwell was descended in direct line from Baron John de Cromwell, who in 1308 was Constable of the Tower of London. At the time of the granting of the above mentioned lease Sir Gervase Clifford, who was secretary to Lord Treasurer Cromwell, was also custodian of the temporalities of the Archbishop of Canterbury. The ancestry of William Cromwell, the father of John already mentioned, can be traced up through several genera- tions to Ralph de Cromwell of Lambley, Nottinghamshire. John Cromwell of Wimbledon, who died about 1480, had two sons — John and Walter. John held land in Lambeth, and was also a brewer in Stockwell; he died in 1523, and was buried in Lambeth Churchyard. xviii A Sketch of the family of His two sons were also brewers ; their names together with that of their cousin Thomas (afterwards Lord Cromwell Earl of Essex) are found amongst the members of Cardinal Wolsey's household at Hampton Court in the subsidy assess- ment for the year 1526. Walter, the second son of the first John Cromwell of Wimbledon, is the ancestor of Oliver Cromwell the Protector. The lease of the fulling mill, etc., at Wimbledon was renewed to Walter in 1473. He also carried on business as a smith, an armourer, a brewer, and kept a hostelry in addition. He died about the year 15 16. It is needful to relate the story of only two of his children. Katherine, born about 1477, and Thomas, born about 1485. The latter became the celebrated minister of Henry VHI, and was created Lord Privy Seal and Baron Cromwell, 1536; Lord Chamberlain of England, 1539; Earl of Essex, 1540; and was executed 28 July, 1540. Katherine, his elder sister, married in 1494 in Putney parish church, Morgan Williams, the son of John Williams of Mortlake, whose early home was near Cardiff. They had a son, Richard Williams, of whom we know that he was so successful in a tournament held by Henry VHI that the king knighted him. After this Richard took his mother's name, Cromwell. As a consequence of this tournament Sir Richard Cromwell and his descendants took as their crest a lion rampant holding a ring in its right paw. Sir Richard, through his maternal uncle Sir Thomas Cromwell (afterwards Earl of Essex), obtained from Henry VHI, at the dissolution of the monasteries, the lands of Ramsey Abbey in Huntingdonshire, the convent at Hinchin- brook, and the priories of Saltrey, Huntingdon, and St Neots, and among other honours was made Constable of Berkeley Castle. He married in 15 18 Frances, daughter and co-heiress of Sir Thomas Murfyn, Lord Mayor of London. Their eldest son Henry married Joan, daughter of Sir Cromwell or Williams xix Ralph Warren, twice Lord Mayor of London. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth in 1653. He entertained the Queen at Hinchinbrook on 18 August, 1654, after her visit to the University of Cambridge. He died early in 1603-4, and was buried in All Saints' Church in Huntingdon. On account of his great liberality he was called by his contemporaries the "Golden Knight." We need concern ourselves with only two of his children, Oliver and Robert. By the death of his uncle, Richard Warren, Oliver became possessed of large estates in Essex, at Great Easton, Newport-Pond, Low Leyton, etc. He was married twice, first, to Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Thomas Bromley, Lord Chancellor of England, and, second, to Ann, daughter of Egidius Hoostman of Antwerp, and widow of Sir Horatio Palavicini of Babraham, Cambridgeshire. He lived to the age of 93, and was buried at Ramsey, 28 August, 1655. He had five sons and five daughters, all, like himself, staunch Royalists. Sir Oliver's extreme liberality towards all, from monarch to labourer, compelled him to sell Hinchinbrook in 1627 to Sir Sidney Montagu, an ancestor of the Earl of Sandwich, and also Newport and Easton in Essex to Henry Maynard, Esq., an ancestor of the Countess of Warwick, to whom Easton Park now belongs. The fines and extortions of the Republican party nearly ruined Sir Oliver and his sons, so that almost the whole of their estates had gone from them when in 1675 Ramsey was purchased by Colonel Titus, the author of the pamphlet " Killing no murder." Henry, the eldest son of Sir Oliver, who was born 25 August, 1586, took an active part on the Royalist side during the Civil War; as a consequence his estates were sequestered by the Parliamentary Commissioners, but Oliver, his cousin, then Lord Protector, caused them to be restored to him. Henry, who was married in 1602 died in 1657, two years after his father. Henry, his second son, who succeeded to the family estate, XX A Sketch of the family of retook the name of Williams, sat as member of Parliament for the County of Huntingdonshire, and voted in 1660 for the restoration of Charles II. He died 3 August, 1673. John, the third son of Sir Oliver, born 1589, became the Colonel of an English regiment in Holland. He was chosen by Prince Charles (Charles II), then an exile in Holland, to carry letters to Oliver his cousin and to beg the life of King Charles I, Robert, the second son of Sir Henry Cromwell, " the Golden Knight," died in June, 1617. He married Elizabeth, daughter of William Steward of Ely, reputed to be of the royal Stuart line\ Oliver Cromwell, afterwards Lord Protector, the second son of this marriage, was born in St John's parish, Huntingdon, on 25 April, 1599. He was educated at the Huntingdon Grammar School and at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, which he entered as Fellow-Commoner on 23 April, 1616. Upon the death of his father in 16 17 he left Cambridge with- out proceeding to a degree, as was usual with men of his rank, going to study law at Lincoln's Inn. He married, 22 August, 1620, Elizabeth, daughter of Sir James Bouchier of Felsted, Essex, by whom he had five sons and four daughters. He was first cousin to John Hampden. The electors of Huntingdon chose him as their repre- sentative in the third Parliament of Charles I, which met on 20 January, 1628 ; he became Justice of the Peace for Huntingdon, 1630, and member for Cambridge, 1640. His career in Parliament and in military matters would require too much space for description here. The death warrant of Charles I was signed by Cromwell on 27 January, 1649. He was installed as Protector, 16 December, 1653. His second Parliament offered him the title of King, an honour which the stubborn resistance ^ See genealogical table, p. xxiii, and for more particulars of the Cromwell family consult Alemoirs of the Protectoral House of Cromxvell by Rev. Mark Noble published 1787. Cromwell or Williams xxi of the Republican army officers decided him to decline. He died at Whitehall, 3 September, 1658, and was buried in Westminster Abbey. After the Restoration of Charles II his body was disinterred, hung on the gallows at Tyburn, and afterwards buried at its foot. The gallows stood near the Marble Arch, Hyde Park, perhaps on the site of no. 49, Connaught Place. Cromwell's skull, which was embalmed, there is little reason to doubt, is in the possession of the Reverend Horace Ricardo Wilkinson, of Trinity College, Cambridge, Vicar of Stoke-by-Nayland, Colchester. The mot in connexion with the reputed skull of Oliver in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, that " it must be the skull of Oliver Cromwell when he was a young man " was made by the late Professor Rolleston. Richard Cromwell, the third son of Oliver, was born at Huntingdon, 4 October, 1626. In 1649 he married Dorothy, daughter of Richard Major of Hursley, Hants. He sat in Oliver's House of Lords, was proclaimed Protector on his father's death, and practically deposed by the army in May, 1659. He retired to France, lived in Paris under the name of John Clarke, returned to England about 1680, and died at Cheshunt, 12 July, 171 2, and is buried in Hursley Church, Hampshire, where he had an estate by right of his wife. Henry Cromwell, the fourth son of Oliver, was born at Huntingdon, 20 January, 1628. He married in 1653 Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Francis Russell of Chippenham, Cambridgeshire. After serving in the Parliamentary Army he was made Lord Deputy of Ireland in 1657. When the Restoration took place he resided at Chippenham and later at Spinney Abbey near Soham. In September, 167 1, Charles II, on his way from Newmarket, called at the Abbey and partook of some refreshment with Henry Cromwell. Henry died at Spinney Abbey, 23 March, 1674, and is buried in the chancel of Wicken Church, DESCENT OF CROMWELL OR WILLIAMS FAMILY William Cromwell, of Palme Hill, Norwell, Notts.

Snuff Box. Made from a piece of the yew tree under which Mary Queen of Scots sat during the battle of Langside.

The yew tree was removed to make way for ex- tending Glasgow. Lent by the Rt. Hon. the Earl of Denbigh 78. A Manuscript Latin Mnemonic, or Rebus, Bible. Of German origin ; once the property of Prince Henry, the elder brother of King Charles I, who died in 1612. It is possible that this small illuminated vellum book came into the possession of the English Royal Family through the Queen of Bohemia, daughter of James the First of England, and from her passed into the keeping of Prince Henry, who esteemed it so greatly that he caused it to be handsomely bound in an English binding, and carefully treasured it. The following is an interesting description of the outside of the book, given by Mr Everard Green, Rouge Dragon, Heralds' College, London : " The back has five panels with four bands and two pallets, and the bands and pallets have a slight cortized seriated ornament in gold. On the sides, each of the four corners has a gilt device of two arrows in saltire, points in base, surmounted by a heart, and ensigned with a royal Crown, within base a fleur de /is, and in the flaunches, a Tudor Rose. The central gilt stamp on either side is oval and consists of the Prince of Wales' feathers, enfiled with a crown, and surrounded by two olive branches slipped in base." This stamp was made expressely for Prince Henry. 79. Gloves of Flora Macdonald. The Jacobite heroine (1722 — 1790), daughter of Ranald Mac- donald, a farmer at Milton, South Uist. While on a visit to the Clanranalds in Benbecula (Hebrides) in 1746, she met Prince Charles Edward during his flight after CuUoden, and helped the Prince to reach Skye. She was imprisoned in the Tower of London after the Prince's escape, was released by the Act of Indemnity, 1747, married Allan Macdonald, 1750, emigrated to North Carolina, 1774, returned to Scotland in 1779.

Casket of Wood and Tortoiseshell. The panels are embroidered with ten figures in very high rehef ; the front has two doors which when open disclose five drawers with ornamented fronts in silk. An exquisite specimen of applique work of the Stuart period. Each figure, garment, flower, piece of foliage, grass, etc. is of the finest needlework and is made separately of fine lace, crochet, and other work. The subjects are allegorical and pastoral as is usually the case in needlework of the period. Embroidered on a fountain in one of the front panels are the letters "a. b. 1674." The work is English and probably unique. Lent by The Rt. Hon. Viscount Dillon, F.S.A., Ditchley Park, Enstone, Oxon. 81.

Perforated Silver "Counters Box." 1 1 inches x i^ inches, with bust of Charles I on lid. The enclosed counters present the portraits of the English Kings and other Royalties of which the most interesting is that of Prince Henry, son of James I, who, in reference to Sir W. Raleigh, said of his father, " no king but my father would keep such a bird as that in a cage." Had this prince come to the throne it is probable that the history of England onward would have been wholly changed. 96. Copper Beaker. Inscribed " Heres to Prince Charlie." The following Jacobite song by Mesham is dated 1749. God Bliss the Prince of Wales The true born Prince of Wales Sent us by Thee Grant us one favor more The King for to restore, As thou hast done before, The familie. God bliss the subjects all. And save both great and small, In every station ; That will bring home the King Who has best right to reign ; It is the only thing Can save the Nation. 97. Knife and Fork. In black leather case, agate handles probably intended for a man's use. That all these knives and forks are nearly contemporary is indicated by the fact that all the leather cases are of precisely similar character. Temp. James I. 98. Knife and Fork.

The name of each sibyl is printed in a circle enclosing her bust, and outside this, written on the wood, is a very mystical and religious verse as — " The Persian Sybill lets vs knowe That Christ should Come to vs belowe " &c. There is a series of Roundels or quatrain on each in the same collection. 108. Two Tobacco Rapes. (i) of wood, 18 inches long, dated 1742 ; (ii) of wood, inlaid with mother-of-pearl, dated 1757. 109.

Reverse: Cupid scattering roses and lilies. Struck for distribution at the marriage of Charles I with Henrietta, daughter of Henry IV of France. The wedding took place in England in June 1625, but it is more likely that the medalettes were originally made in France where the first ceremony by proxy was performed in the previous May. Nicholas Briot to whom they are attributed was at that time still residing in Paris, but commoner cast examples were freely copied in England. Exhibition 19 120. Memorial of Charles I. Obverse : Bust of Charles. Reverse : Salamander amid flames. Legend: Constantia Caesaris 30 Jan. 1648. The Salamander was frequently adopted as an emblem of fortitude and typifies the patience under sufferings of the King. This bust by Thomas Rawlins is used with varying reverses but is very rare with this reverse. 121. Memorial of Charles I. By Thomas Rawlins. Obverse : Bust of Charles bearing in his hand a crown of thorns. Reverse: Rock buffeted by winds and waves. The design for this badge is taken from the " emblem " picture prefixed to many editions of Eikon Basilike where the words Immota Triumphans the rock and the crown typify the King's endurance. 122. Silver box. Containing bust of Charles I taken from a badge by Rawlins. The lid of the box is engraved with the letters h-o-p-e and a star typical of the desired Restoration. 123. Badge of Charles I. By Thomas Rawlins. Silver gilt. Obverse : Bust of Charles within border. Reverse: Royal Arms crowned within Garter. This bust appears with many reverses, but was first used by Rawlins at the outbreak of the Civil War on the Declaration of Parliament Badge. Rawlins served the King throughout the war and most of the badges are attributable to him or consist in casts and copies made from his works. 124. Heart-shaped silver locket. Obverse: Heart pierced by arrows. Reverse : Weeping eye. Contains secret portrait of Charles I by Thomas Rawlins of the tiny type which is known with various reverses and which is said to have been used in war time by Royal messengers as a token easy of concealment. 20 Stuart and Cromii^elliaii 125. Example of a medal. By Rawlins, usually classed as a pattern for a coin. Obverse: Bust of Charles. Reverse : Royal Arras within garter. The setting is Dutch, such as was made in West Friesland in the early half and middle of the 17th century. It is therefore likely that the ornament was made and the pendant pearl affixed for some member of the court of Mary, the daughter of Charles I and wife of William II of Orange, who married in 1641. 126. Charles Prinxe of Wales (afterwards Charles II). Obverse: Bust of the Prince, the same as that which appeared on the Forlorn Hope medal, thus fixing the date to the year 1642. Reverse: Royal Arms crowned within Garter. 127. Coronation Medal of Charles II. By Thomas Simon, in gold. Obverse: Bust of Charles II. Reverse: Charles seated on his throne crowned by Peace. 128.

By Alexis Belle (?). 149. Portrait of Prince Charles Edward Stuart with steel breastplate and Order of the Garter; said to be by Vanloo. In the frame is contained a small portion of the Prince's hair. 150. The Pale Blue Silk Vest worn by King Charles I on the scaffold and stained with his blood. "This waistcoat was worn by King Charles I »" J^e scaffold, and from the scaffold came into the hands of Dr Hobbs, his physician, who attended him on that occasion. The Doctor preserved this relic of his Royal Master, and from him it came into the possession of Suzannah Hobbs, his daughter, who married Temple Stanger of Rawlings in Oxfordshire." The foregoing account of this waistcoat was taken from the testimony of Dame Grace Stanger, second wife of the above-mentioned Temple Stanger, in 1767. It descended from them to Temple Hardy, Esq.: here the exact details are incomplete, but no doubt through a daughter of the Suzannah Hobbs who first married Temple Stanger. The relic was left by Temple Hardy at his death to Admiral D Aeth of Knowlton Court, in the county of Kent, who died in 1873. The Secret History of Whitehall, p. 302, contains the following statement: "The Bishop (Juxon) put on his (the King's) nightcap and unclothed him to his sky blue vest." 24 Stuart and Cromwellian 151.

Small Elliptical Silver Gilt Snuff Box head of King Charles I to left surmounted by a Crown held by Angels, and supported by the Royal Arms : below the head are the Arms of Trelawny of Trelawne. As the box is of the Restoration period or perhaps even of the Commonwealth, the owner was doubtless Sir John Trelawny, ist Bart., created 1628, who died in 1665. He was an ardent Royalist, and was committed by the Commons to the Tower for doing good service to the King's cause in his own County, and it was concerning him and not as is popularly believed with regard to his grandson the Bishop that "twenty thousand Cornishmen were determined to know the reason why." 163.

The gauntlet is very richly embroidered in gold and silver threads and coloured silks, heartsease and other flowers ; worn by King Charles I. The history of this glove is as follows : — "The original possessor of this relic was Dr Baldwin Harney the younger, the well-known physician who lived in the times of Charles I and Charles II, and who was intimately associated with both these kings. On the death of the Doctor in 1676, the relic passed into the keeping of his sister, who was married to a Mr Palmer. It remained for some years in the Palmer family and then passed into the Gundry family, the Palmers and Gundrys being connected by marriage. The Gundry family was connected with the family of Ridout of Deans Lease, Wichampton, and through that connection it passed into the hands of Sir George Ridout Bingham of Binghams Mel- combe, who was the son of Elizabeth the daughter and heiress of John Ridout of Deans Lease. Sir George died about the year 1833 without issue, bequeathing the relic to his widow, Exhibition 33 by whom it was given to Sir George's sister Mary, who was married to Nathaniel Tryon Still. On the death of Nathaniel Tryon Still the relic came into the possession of his son John Thomas Still, the late husband of the present owner."

The Prince is wearing a light yellow wig with black bow, a red, gold-laced, coat, a white jabon or stock, and the blue ribbon of the Garter. On the back of the picture, in old writing, is the following : " This Portrait of Charles Stuart, Pretender, I bought at the sale of Mr Broadris's effects. Mr Kerrich had seen him (the Prince) at Rome and thought it very like him. (Signed) E. D. Clarke." E. D. Clarke was the celebrated traveller and mineralogist, and Mr (Thomas) Kerrich was the Cambridge Librarian from 1748 to 1828, he therefore probably saw the Prince when on a visit to Rome soon after the first-named date. On the back of the frame, which has all the appearance of being the original one, can be deciphered these lines, written in ancient characters : " God bless the King, I mean the faith's defender God bless, no harm, in blessing the Pretender, But which Pretender is and which is King, God bless us all ! that's quite another thing ! " One may infer from these lines that this miniature was at some early date in the possession of a Loyal Jacobite. Exhibitio7t 69 PIPE OR TOBACCO STOPPERS 453. Brass Medal.

A PAIR OF Gloves of King Charles I. These have been in the possession of the Milward's of Eton Dovedale, near Uttoxeter, Derbyshire, till they were recently acquired from a representative of the family by the present owner. King Charles was a frequent visitor to the mansion of Sir Thomas Milward (whom His Majesty knighted during a visit) and these gloves were left by him on one of these occasions. (See Redfern's " Royal and Historic Gloves and Shoes.") 501. The Naseby Gloves. These are believed to have belonged to a Royalist lady who was at Naseby with the Cavalier army when the King was fatally defeated on June 14th, 1645, and that in the hurried flight which ensued, these gloves, together with many other belongings of the Royalists, were left behind. Till a few years ago they were treasured by a lady named Clarence, who was a native of Naseby. (See Redfern's '' Royal and Historic Gloves and Shoes.") 502. Gloves of Oliver Cromwell. A well autlienticated pair of gloves of Oliver Cromwell. They were preserved in the Cromwell family till comparatively recent times, when about 70 years since they were given to an old gentle- man named Charles Martin (who died at the age of 92), of Fordham, Cambs., who had them from his aged mother, who had received them from a relative who had been in the service of either Henry Cromwell (son of Oliver) of vSpinney Abbey, Wicken, Cambs., or in that of William Russell, of Fordham, who was son-in law of Henry Cromwell. Inside the left-hand cuff or gauntlet is attached 76 Stuart and Cromwellian a worn and faded piece of ancient paper on which, in writing of the period, now partly obliterated, is this inscription : " These gloves did . . . . ng to Oliver Cromwell and was the gift of a gentleman of Huntingdon. 1704." "Cromwell was a native of Huntingdon, that family having resided there many ages." The date, which evidently refers to the time of the writing on the label, brings the memorandum to within forty-six years of the death of Oliver, and from the wording of it, it would appear that the gloves were a presentation from an admirer of the Protector. Several generations of the Cromwell family married, lived, died and were buried in the Wicken district. Several of their tombs still remain in the chancel of Wicken Church.

Glove or Gauntlet of Mary Stuart, Queen OF Scots, This glove is said to have been given by Mary Stuart, on the morning of her execution, to Marmaduke Darell, who was Master of the Household at Fotheringay and remained in charge there after the Queen's death. The glove was preserved in the Darell family until 1837 A.D., when it was deposited in the Saffron Walden Museum by Francis Dayrell, Esq., of Shudy Camps Park, Cambs. The glove is of soft leather, dark fawn or brown in colour, 14I inches in length, and has a richly decorated cuff. The seams are finely piped and the whole glove is very neatly and strongly made. The upper part of the cuff has a design of flowers, worked upon the plain leather, in gold and coloured threads, and also bears a series of semicircular lines connecting the flowers and forming a decorative border to the main band of ornament ; this consists of a broad edging to the lower part of the cuff and wrist slit, the field of which is silver thread and the edgings of raised gold stitching. Raised conventional flowers and the figure of a peacock are worked on the surface in gold and coloured threads. A narrow band of crimson silk, to which is attached a net-like fringe of gold-faced thread bearing three rows of small circular metal spangles, completes the decoration. The sides of the cuff are held together, as is usual with gloves of the period, by a pair of wide silk ribbons decorated with gold thread. 517. Shoe of Elizabeth, Queen of Bohemia. One of a pair of shoes once in the possession of Lady Cotton of Conington, Cambs., who had been in the service of Princess Elizabeth the daughter of King James I.

The Portrait of Oliver Cromwell. By Cooper. This original portrait in crayons was probably taken from life, for it represents him worn and faded from the fatigues of life. It was presented to the College in 1766 by Thomas Hollis, an antiquary, who sent it with two unsigned letters as follows : "To the Master and Fellows of Sidney Sussex College, Cam- bridge. An Englishman, an assertor of liberty, citizen of the world, is desirous of having the honour to present an original portrait in crayons of the head of O. Cromwell, Protector, drawn by Cooper, to Sidney Sussex College, in Cambridge. London, Jan. 15, 1766. ' I freely declare it, I am for old Noll ; Though his government did a tyrant's resemble, He made England great, and her enemies tremble.' It is requested that the portrait should be placed so as to receive the light froiii left to right, and be free from sunshine. Also that the favour of a line may be written on the arrival of it, directed to Pierce Delver, at Mr Shore's, bookbinder in Maiden Lane, Covent Garden, London." The Secofid letter. "A small case was sent yesterday by the Cambridge waggon from the Green Dragon, Bishopsgate Street directed to Dr Elliston, Master of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, free of carriage. It contains a portrait which the Master and Fellows of that College are requested to accept. London, Jan. 18, 1766." Thomas Hollis died in 1774, but it appears from his memoirs that his secret was known in 1780. {Notes atid Queries, Feb. 24, 1872.) 552. The Portrait of Dr Samuel Ward.
