54	(22 August 2018) Note that this particular baptismal entry is from the Bishop's Transcript rather than the original register, and the year is not stated on the digital image of the Bishop's Transcript available to me. The year 1634 is based on the FindMyPast transcription. Some of the 1635 entries were transcribed as 1637 on FindMyPast, and therefore 1634 is not necessarily to be considered a very reliable transcription. His burial record, however, means that he cannot have been baptized after 1635.	Bacchus, Martin (I2394)
55	(22 August 2018) Note that this particular baptismal entry is from the Bishop's Transcript rather than the original register, and the year is not stated on the digital image of the Bishop's Transcript available to me. The year 1640 is based on the FindMyPast transcription. Some of the 1635 entries were transcribed as 1637 on FindMyPast, and therefore 1640 is not necessarily to be considered a reliable transcription.	Bacchus, Andrew (I2390)

58	22 August 2018 He was mentioned in the will of his sister, Esther Huntington, dated 16 July 1705 (digital copy obtained 9 June 2017), which was proved in the Peculiar Probate Court of Howdenshire, October 1709. In her will, she referred to "my sister Anne Bacchus Spinster and my nephews John Bacchus son of my brother Mr. George Bacchus & William Bacchus son of my brother Mr. Mordecai Bacchus." Hull Heritage Centre catalogue, C DDEY/26: Lease - Cottingham Southwood (25 March 1675) "Anne Bacchus of Hull, spinster and Ester Bacchus, spinster to Mordecai Bacchus of Beverley, gentleman, two closes called ''Greate East Hagg'' and ''Little East Hagg'' in Cottingham Southwood." 1 item He is identified as "Mordeca: S: of Mr. John Bachous" who was baptized 28 November, 1646, at Holy Trinity, Hull. Esther is therefore inferred to be identical to "Hester D. of Mr. John Backhouse" who was baptized 20 November, 1647, also at Holy Trinity, Hull. They were children of the marriage of John Bacchus and Jane Jefferson, which was solemnized 19 February, 1628/29, at Holy Trinity, Hull.	Bacchus, Mordecai (I2381)
59	23 October 2024 It seems clear, from the litigation in which Ralph Croft and his descendants participated, that Ann, who was apparently a recusant, was somehow related to Simon Conyers, of Danby, the father-in-law of Henry Scrope, of Danby and Spennithorne. The Crofts were variously in litigation with the Conyers, Scrope, and Metcalfe families. The latter probably descend from the re-marriage of Simon's mother Anne, née Mountfort, to James Metcalfe. One of the lawsuits also concerns the estate of Thomas Fulthorpe, Simon's father-in-law. Anne Croft was probably therefore a Metcalfe or a Conyers, or possibly a Carr (from the third marriage of Anne Mountfort). The connection would make the Scropes of Danby cousins of the Crofts. Francis Burgh of Spennithorne in his will dated 1601 refers to Henry Scrope as well as to his cousin Christopher Croft of Cottescue. It is likely that Francis's mother was also related to Anne Mountfort, from whose ancestors the Danby estate was inherited by Conyers and Scrope. We have not yet had opportunity to consult the following Chancery or Exchequer records: E 321/8/66: Crofte v. Conyers. E 321/42/92: [unknown] v. Conyers. C 1/1206/85: Crofte v. Chamber. C 1/1294/69: Crofte v. Conyers. [C 1/1206/86: Crofte v. Tomson. C 1/1185/5-6: Thomson v. Crofte.] E 321/7/95: Crofte v. Metcalf. C 1/1204/108-109: Crofte v. Metcalf. C 9/5/131: Metcalfe v. Crofte. C 10/45/89: Metcalfe v. Croft. C 8/55/69: Beverley v. Turbatt. C 8/38/119: Beverley v. Turbatt. C 8/77/109: Beverley v. Turbatt. C 4/9/132: Ralph Croft v. Simon Conyers. E 134/32and33Eliz/Mich33: Scrope v. Croft. E 134/17Eliz/East6: Tenants of Midleham v. Toppam. The final reference is to Topham of Agglethorpe. We note that Edward Topham of Agglethorpe married Anne, daughter of John Scrope and granddaughter of the above-mentioned Henry Scrope by Margaret Conyers. Their daughter Margery Topham married Christopher Croft, of Coverham, who died 20 September 1666, and who was possibly a cousin of Christopher Croft of Cottescue.	(unknown), Ann (I3064)
60	Death by malmsey "The king certainly led the prosecution of his brother. Edward may, however, have later repented: he had to be pushed into proceeding with Clarence's execution; he provided for an expensive funeral, monument, and chantry foundation at Tewkesbury Abbey; and he is alleged to have bewailed Clarence's death. One modern study regards Clarence's death as a judicial murder organized by the family of the queen, who persuaded King Edward to participate against his better judgement. If the queen really regarded Clarence as a threat to the succession of her son, certainly his removal substantially strengthened the king's authority over his greater subjects, as the Crowland continuator alleged. "There is no doubt that Clarence was executed for treason in the Tower of London on 18 February 1478. It appears, however, that he was neither hanged nor beheaded, as was normal, but was drowned in a butt of malmsey wine (sweet wine imported from Greece). This strange story occurs in the earliest reports, of Jean de Roye and Mancini, and was evidently known to the Crowland continuator, who declares himself uncertain. No chronicler suggests any other mode of death." --Oxford D.N.B. (Michael Hicks)	(Plantagenet), George Duke of Clarence (I368)
61	Burke's Peerage and Baronetage (2003), page 2247, contradicts itself by stating that Katherine married Francis Fitton in 1588 but died circa December 1587. We have therefore accepted the date of death as 28 October 1596, as stated in Sir Egerton Brydges (ed.), Collins's Peerage of England (London, nine volumes), volume II (1812), page 326.	Neville, Hon. Katherine (I1337)
62	Complete Baronetage, volume I (1900), page 103, states that he died 9 January 1617/18, aged 76. This discrepancy needs to be reconciled from an original source, such as the monumental inscription at Masham.	Wyvill, Sir Marmaduke 1st Baronet (I1428)

78	A year after the death of his wife, he obtained, on 14 July 1449, licence from Henry VI to enter on the lands, &c., of Abergavenny, and, from 5 September (1450) 29 Hen. VI to 19 August (1472) 12 Edw. IV, was summoned to Parliament as a Baron [LORD BERGAVENNY], by writs directed "Edwardo Nevill domino de Bergevenny chivaler," though he does not appear to have been seized, except for a short time, of the Castle and lands of that name.

93	Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor is legitimate according to the revision of the canon law of the Church of England made in 2002 by the General Synod, which provided “exceptional circumstances” in which “a divorced person may marry again in church during the lifetime of a former spouse.” Without this revision, he would have been illegitimate under canon law owing to his mother's having previously contracted a marriage with Mr. Trevor Engelson.	(Mountbatten-Windsor), H.R.H. Prince Archie Harrison of Sussex (I922)
94	As "Thomas, Earl of Kent," he had letters of protection, 5 June 1380.	(Holand), Thomas 2nd Earl of Kent (I487)
95	As a cousin (i.e. son of a sister of the grandmother) of the last owner, (but in no way connected with any of the former owners previous to the marriage of his maternal aunt with then Lord) he succeeded to the Castle and Honour of Abergavenny by virtue of the entail, made by John (Hastings), Earl of Pembroke. Having succeeded to the lands of Abergavenny, he was summoned to Parliament, 23 July (1392) 16 Ric.

(Beauchamp), William 1st Lord Bergavenny (I2404)
96	As a peer he was anti-Catholic and seceded from the Tory party when Peel gave way to the Catholic claims. Being a member of the Grey cabinet he supported the Reform Bill, but he was alone in dissenting from their decision, 8 May 1832, to resign if the King would not give them powers to make peers at once (Trevelyan, Lord Grey of the Reform Bill, page 339). He resigned in May 1834, joined Peel as one of the new Conservative party and became leader of the Protectionists. Lord Beauvale wrote to Lady Palmerston from Toplitz, 23 June 1841: "Sir John Courcy says the Queen will send en cas de besoin for the Duke of Richmond" (Lady Airlie, Lady Palmerston and her Times, volume ii, page 63). In January 1842 he declined Peel's offer to appoint him Lord Privy Seal (Parker, Sir Robert Peel, volume ii, page 519).	(Gordon-Lennox), Charles 5th Duke of Richmond (I950)

100	As Henry, Earl of Lancaster, he was appointed, 7 December 1326, Keeper of the castle and honour of Lancaster, the castles and honours of Tutbury and Pickering, the manor of Melbourne, co.
