REGISTERS OF THE PARISH OF
ST. MARY. STOCKPORT.

THE CHURCH.

THE Parish Ciurch of Stockport, dedicated to St.
Mary the Virgin, must have had a very ancient
foundation, for Stockport having been an important
stronghold in the Roman and Saxon periods, it is
only reasonable to infer that there was a church and
consecrated burying ground in connection with the
Castle. There is no mention of it in the Domesday
Book, but the devastation of the district by the
Normans soon after the Conquest is sufficient to
account for the omission. Upon this subject we
learn from Ormerod's " History of Cheshire" that
there can be little doubt that a church had existed
here which was the head of a most extensive parish
before the Conquest.

Of the earlier churches, says Dr Hegin-
botham in his " Stockport, Ancient and
Modern," there are no records or remains,
but the structure which preceded the pre-
sent, and of which the existing chancel formed a
part, was erected early in the fourteenth century.
The church, CDnsisting of tower, nave, and chancel,
was built of red sandstone, tlie prevailing geological
formation of the district, and was a very venerable
structure, standing upon the site occupied by the the
present church. In 1810, the insecure state of the
tower of the old church and the fall of part of the
embattlements on the south side of the nave led to
an application to Parliament for "An Act for re-

pairing or rebuilding the Parish Church of Stock-
port, in the County Palatine of Chester, and for re-
building the Tower thereof ; and for making a
cemetery or churchyard for the use of the Parish."
This Act was passed in 1810, and steps were soon
after tanen for carrying the Act into effect.

When the tower and nave had been demolished
and removed, arrangements were made for laying
the foundation stone of the new structure, and July
5, 1813, was selected for that purpose. The stone
was laid at the south-east corner of the town by
Wilbraham Egerton, Esq., M.P., grandfather of the
present Lord Egerton of Tiitton. The rebuilding of
the church occupied nearly four years, and the first
sermon was preached therein April 6, 1817, by the
Rev. Edward Howell, curate. The church, however,
was not consecrated until July 4, 1817, on which
occasion the sermon was preached by the Rev.
Charles Prescot, B.D., the rector. The total cost of
rebuilding the church was £42,886 3s l|d.

On October 29, 1882, the church was again re-
opened after having been renovated and decorated
under the able guidance of Mr J. S. Crowther, of
Alderley, the architect who has in hand the remodel-
ling of Manchester Cathedral. Under his direction
the whole of the old box-pews were removed and
the present open sittings substituted. The gallery
on each side was lowered about eight inches, whilst
that at the west end occupied by the organ and
choir was entirely removed. The gable was pierced.

5tochport ^partsf} l^eQisters.

and in it lias since boon inserted the present beauti-
ful stained-glass window by Mr R. IJ. Lingard-
Monk, as a memorial to liis late wife. The organ
was placed in the Lyme and I'rinnington Ciiapol
after being thoroughly cleaned and overhauled.
These alterations cost about £4000.

THE KTAIXED GLAS.S.
The memorial wiiulows are seven in number,
four in the chancel, twni^ in the nave, and one
in the galile of the tower. The east window of the
chancel is the most conspicuous, and is a fine speci-
men of the decorative art. It consists of six great
lights, above which are trefoils and quatrefoils,
surrounded by bold and flowing tracery. It
represents the leading events in the life of our
Saviour. The others are memorial windows, and
are all of chaste design.

At the time when the Registers commenced the
rector was the Rev. Ricliard Gerard, H.D, M.A. He
was the lirst rector appointed after the formation of
theSee of Chester in 1541 on V.\f presentation of his
uncle, Gilbert Gerard, and of William Gerard, of
Gray's Inn, London, the first-named being attorney-
general t" Queen Elizibeth from 1559 tn 1585, and
the latter lord clianc'llor fir Irolarnl. He was also
recorder of ('he.ster from 1556 tn 1575, and Tf^jiresented
that city in Parliament until his death, which took
place May 1, 1581.

Richard Gerard, the rector, was the second >on of

William Gerard, of Ilarrow-on-the-Hill, Middles<?x,a
representative of the Gerards of Bryn in Lancashire.
He was one of the chaplains of Queen Eiizihteth. and
in 1580 was instituted pretxinrlary of Xorwell Over-
hall, in the Collegiate Church of K'juthwell. He
married, January 19, 1584-5— nine months after the
commencement of the Registers— Ursula, daughter
of Ralph Ardi'rneof Harden, Bredbury, by whom he
had ten children. His own burial is thus recorded
in the Registers —

Richard Geraud, Bachelor of Divinitie akd
Parson of the Church of Stockport was

BDRIKD THE 17tH OF MaVE 1614.

The Registers of the Ancient Parish of St. Marj-,
Stockport, contain much that is quaint, curious, and
interesting to the antiquarian, genealogist, and
general reader.

THE REGISTERS.

These Registers date from 1584, being some years
later than tho.se of the neighbouring parishes of
Cheadle, Northenden, and \Vilmslow. They are,
however, exceedingly, Tuliiaunous, consisting of no"
.fewer than seventy-six volumes. <^hese are weU
written, and in an excellent state of preservation.
Up to the commence neat of 1883 the Registers con-
t lined the records of 64,183 baptisms, 32,537 mar-
riages, and 63,924 burials. The first volume is a
thick parchment folio, dating from 1534 to 1628.
There is no division between baptisms, marriages, or
burials ; each is entered as it took place. For the
sake of clearness, however, these have been
separately placed under each month, and the date of
the event brought to the front in chronological order.

In every other respect the orthography has been
adhered to as closely as possible, whereby the reader
is enabled to note the various forms of spelling
local names during the earlier years of registration.

The first page of this volume of the Registers is
prefaced with the following entry ; —

A true and perfect Register of all those that have

bene christned maried and buried in the parish

In this as in the entry ot the burial of John
Arderne of Harden the particulars are written in
a much plainer hand, the name of the bride's
home Hawaiden in this case meaning Harden
near Stockport. The reader should also'
bear in mmd that in cuing dates of
events occurring between January 1 and
March 25 in any year between 1532 and
1752 it is cu>tomaiy to insert both the civU and
historical year. Previous to the last-named ye^r it
was usual tor two dates to be used, one for thecivil
and the other for the hiit .rical; the former com.
menced March 25, and toe latter January, thus
to be strictly accurate the marriage of Parson
Gerard should have been entered as taking place

This last entry is written over an erasure. What
the previous name was there is not the slightest
trace. What makes mo think some other name
than that of Lomes occupied this space in the first
instance, is that the erabing knife has not heca
used t ) make a correction of a word or a date,
buttiie whole width of the page, and sufficient in
depth for two entries, has the parchment been

On referring to Earwaker's Eit/t Cheshire, the
following particulars relating to this member of
the Davenport family are found : William Daven-
port was the only son of Sir Williim Davenport,
Knight, and Margaret, daughter of George Booth,
of Dunham, in whose Inquisition podt rnoi'lem.,
held 1576, the son was entered as being 34 years

This double entry evidently has reference to

are three other entries between them. As will
be seen below, it is followed by a marriage on
the same date, the same marriage being entered
again under the 25th. To make it plainer I
give the entries in the order set down in the

names in the marriage entry are spelled different
to those in the first entry, and that there is a
difference of three days in the date.

The Henry Bradshaw whose marriage is here
recorded was the eldest son and heir of Henry
Bradshaw, who purchased Marple Hall and lands
in Marple and Wybberslegh from Sir Edward
Stanley, K.B. He in turn, by his marriage with
Katherine Winnington, became the father of
Henry Bradshaw, a colonel in the Parliamentary
Army, and of John Bradshaw, the famous judge.
Henry Bradshaw's wife Katherine was the last
of the Winningtons of Offerton, being the
youngest daughter and co-heiress with her sister
Anne (afterwards married to Lawrence Wright,
of Mottram-St.-Andrew) of Ralph Winnington,
of Offerton. She died January 34, 1603, after ten
years of married life. Her children were —

1.— William, baptised January 2, 1596-7 ; buried
November 19, 1.597, at Hlockport.

2. — Henry, baptised at Stockport January 23,
1600 ; buried there March 15, 1661, having
been twice married.

3. — John, baptised at Stockport December 10,
l&>2; buried November 22, 1659, iu West-
minster Ahbey.

4. — Francis, baptised at Stockport January 13,
1603, and was living in 1639.

5. — Dorothy, baptised at 8tfx;kport August 11,

1598, and married George Newton, of Newton-
in-Longdendale, August 30, 1618.

6. — Anne, baptised at Stockport November 9,

1599, and married John Fallowes, of Fallowes
Hall, Alderley.

Henry Bradshaw, the father of these children,

continued to live at Wyberslegh Hall until the

death of his father at Marple Hall, which event

took place in January, 1619-20. Respecting his

three surviving sons given above they are best

remembered by the following verse afterwards

made in the judge's name : —

My brother Henry must heir the land ;
My brother Frank must be at his command ;
Whilst I, poor Jack, shall do that
Which all the world will wonder at.

Henry Bradshaw died in 1654, and was buried at
Stockport August 3 in that year, having, along
with his sons Henry and John, taken a prominent
part in the national commotion which only closed
with the restoration of Charles II.

Turning to Earwaker's East Cheshire (ii. 127;
we find that Jolin Hyde was collated to the living
of Mottiam-in-Longdendale June 4, 1575, by Dr
Downham, Bishop of Chester, and that he held
the living for over sixty years. He was twice
married, first at Mottram on February 26, 1575-6,
to Alice Reddich, of Mottram. She died, and was
buried at Mottram, March 21, 1593-4, and on May
22, 1597 (so says Mr Earwaker) he married for his
second wife Anne Hyde. It will be observed that
the Stockport Registers record the event as taking
place on May 11, 1597. Hyde was rural dean of
Macclesfield, and as such each page of the
Mottram Register transcripts are endorsed by
him as " Dean of Macclesfield." The vicar died
in 1637, and was buried in Mottram as is testified
bv the following entry in the Eegisters :

top and bottom.

THESE NAMES HEEREAFTER FOLLOWING
WERE REGlSfEREU BY THOMAS SIMKIN
SINCE HI.S FIRST COMING TO STOCK-
PORTE, VIZ.: 1304199

At the commencement of the transcription of
these Registers it was stated that the first portion
of the first volume was but a copy of some pre-
vious Register. This opinion has been asserted
to be erroneous. The above entry, if further
proof were needed, is sufficient in itself to set the
matter at rest. Tne first volume begins in March,
1584, and ends in 1628, and it written by one man
in what is termed Elizabethan court hand, and is
most uniform throughout. Now Simkin did not
succeed to the duties of parish clerk until this
date — July, 1597 — therefore the entries made by
him in the parchment book from March, 1584, to
- June, 1597, as directed by law, had to be tran-
scribed from some previous Register, not in
accordance with the regulations issued by
Lord Cromwell in 1538. Many of the pages
of this earlier portion of the first volume
bear out this assumption, the entries
during that period containing blanks for unde-
cipherable names, duplicate entries of the same
event, transpositions, interlineations, etc., such as
might be expected when copying from loose
sheets of paper. As will be found, during the
forty -five years that Simkin was clerk, the entries
are more complete and there are fewer dis-
crepancies. Simkin died in 1642, the following
entry being made in the Registers that year :

1642. Bur. June. Thomas Symkin, "the good Clarke
of Stockport, who served the place there 45
years, was buried the 9th.

10.— JOHN THE SONNE OF HEN'kYE BRADSBAW
OF MARPLE WAS BAPTIZED TBE irrrH. traitctr.
Thus we have the entry in the 8U}ckpon Parish
Registers of the baptism of John Bradshaw
President of Cromwell's High Court of Justice,
before whom Charles I. was tried, and by whom
his death sentence was pronounced. In order,
that readers of Cheshire Notes and Queries
may have an idea how the original entry appears
in the old parchment volume, we have been
enabled by the kindness of Mr H. Heginbotham
J.P., of OffertOQ. to insert a facsimile :
The engraving is the work of Mr Robert Langton
F.R.H.S., of Manchester, and was executed for
Dr Heginbotham's Stockport: Ancient and Modem
now approaching completion, and to Dr Hegin-
botham our readers are indebted for an oppor
tunity of inspecting a most faithful copy of this
now historic record.

The story of Judge Bradshaw's life has often
been told, and the more it is investigated the
better does it become. Space, howevr r, will only
admit of giving but a brief outline at this place.
Reference has already been made to the marriage
«f his parents (see February 4, 1593-4), to the
baptism of his two elder brothers, William and
Henry (see January 2, 1596-7 and January 23,
1601), and to the burial of his brother William
(see November 19, 1597, of these Registers).
There was also a sister older than John, whose
baptism is given under November 9, 1599. The
place of John Bradshaw's birth is uncertain, that
event by some being located at Marble Hall, and
by others at Wybterslej;h Hall, in the same neigh-
bourhord. This uncertainty can be best ex-
plained by taking a brief glance at the position
of the family at this period. At the time of John
Bradshaw's birth, there were no fewer than three
Henry Bradshaws residing in the neighbourhood
of Marple, these being respectively brother,
father, and grandfather of the embryo judge.
Henry Bradshaw, senior, was living at Marple
Hall, which estate, together with that of Wybbers-
legh, he had acquired by purchase from Sir
Edward Stanley. On the marriage of his eldest
son and heir, Henry Bradshaw, junior, to
Katherine Winnington (father and mother of
Henry Bradshaw, ter, and of John), it was

^tocftport ?faris|) Iteixlfiters,

53

Stocftport ^arisij JElegisters*

54

necessary to provide them with a separate estab-
lishment. Thus it was that Wybberslegh Hall
was set apart for the young people, and here it
may safely be inferred they continued to reside
until the death of the first Henry Bradshaw,
which event took place in January, 1GI9-20, at a
time when John Bradshaw would be seventeen
years' old, and when, ia all probability, he would
be a foundationer at the Stockport Grammar
School, under the then head master, Luke Mason,
together with his brothers, Henry and Francis.

Of the boyhood of John Bradshaw nothing is
known ; but the following verse, said to have
been scratched by him on a window-pane at
Marple Hall, is an indication of the ambition that
filled his youthful breast, and at the same time
displays a faculty for prevision that was remark-
able. The verse referred to tells us that —

My brother Henry must heir the land :
My brother Frank must be at his command ;
Whilst I, poor Jack, shall do that
Which all the world will wonder at.

On leaving Stockport Grammar School he pro-
ceeded to one at Bunbury, Cheshire, when he
would doubtless make the acquaintance of
Edward Burghall, pars'>n and schoolmaster there
and whose diary of the civil war is one of the
most interesting records we have of that period-
From Bunbury John Bradshaw went to Middle-
ton, in Lancashire, thence to Gray's Inn, to
study law. He was called to the bar of his Inn
April 23, 1627, and to the bench of that society
June 23, 1645, when he was appointed Judge of
the Sheriff's Court, London. It is thought he
acted for some years as a provincial counsel, as
he lived for a time at Congleton, and served the
office of Mayor there in 1637, and was afterwards
high steward.

He was appointed chief justice of Chester in
March, 1647, and at the great move in legal offices
shortly before the trial of Charles I. the House of
Commons ordered that there should be a new call
of serjeints, such order stUing "that Mr Brad-
shaw, of Gray's Inn, be a member [October 12,
1648]." Shortly afterwards he was promoted to
the rank of Commissioner in the New High Court
of Justice, and on January 10, 1649, he was fur-
ther dignified with the title of Lord President
of that court. The trial of King Charles began
January 20, 1649, and Clarendon (vol. vi., 218)
says he administered the office " with all the
pride, impudence, and superciliousness imagin-
able." It must be remembered, however, that
Clarendon was the King's most trusted friend and
counsellor, and, consequently, regarded this scene
and its actors in a different light. As chief judge

at this trial, Bradshaw was the first to sign tb«
warrant for the execution of the King after he
had passed 8ent«nce. This warrant is X/t be seen
in the British Museum. In the subsequent trials
ef the Duke of Hamilton, the Earl of Holland, and
others, Brad»haw continued to act as Lord Presi-
dent, and the Dean's house at Westminster was
given him as a residence with a donation of
£5000. As a further recompense for his services
at the various trials an ordnance was passed
settling upon him £2000 a year, and his appoint-
ment as Chief Justice of Chester was renewed.
In addition, he was made Chancellor of ihe
Duchy of Lancaster and a member of the Council
of State.

A friend to pure democracy, he strenuously
opposed the efforts of Cromwell to engross all the
powers of State into his own hands, and eagerly
thwarted his measures. When Cromwell recon-
structed Parliament upon a basis of manhood
suffrage, in 1654, Cheshire, which hitherto
had but two representatives, was represented by
four, and one of these was Judge Bradshaw. The
Protector, feeling the force of Bradshaw's opposi-
tion, endeavoured to get rid of him by creating
him a peer, but, says Clarendon, he refused to
be won over by such lures, and continued in a
state of sulky opposition during the remainder of
Oliver's protectorate. Foss, however, states that
Cromwell purposely omitted his name on account
of the distaste that existed between them, and
that it was in consequence of Cromwell's action
in the matter that Bradshaw was defeated when
he contested the election in Cheshire in 1656. On
the death of the Protector Cromwell, however,
Bradshaw was returned as one of the members
for Chester to Richard Cromwell's Parliament, in
1659.

When Richard Cromwell had been deposed and
the Commonwealth again proclaimed, Bradshaw
accepted office as one of the Commissioners of the
Great Seal, swearing " to be true to this Common-
wealth, without a single person, kingship, or
House of Lords," but in a few weeks he had the
mortification of seeing the supreme power in the
hands of the militaiy, which was only a preli-
minary to the restoration of Charles II.

Judge Bradshaw only survived this scene a few
weeks, for he died at the Deanery, Westminster,
October 31, 1659, having suffered considerably in
health consequent upon the great menta strain
he had undergone. He was interred with great
pomp in Westminster Abbey, bis funeral sermon
being preached by John Rowe. On the
restoration of Charles II. his body and the bodies
of Cromwell and Ireton, both of which had been

■Stocftport ^arisjj Registers.

55

deposited in the same place, were (January 30'
1660-1) diiinterred, and, with every nourk of
obloquy, were dragged on sledges to Tyburn, at
which notorious spot they were gibbclod, then
beheaded, their trunks being thrown in a hole
at the foot of the gallows, and their heads ex-
posed on poles on the top of Westminster Abbey.

At a meeting of the members of the Lancashire
and Cheshiie Antiquarian Society, held at Marple
Hall in the summer of 1886, Mr J. Eglington
Bailey. F.S.A., of Stretford, exhibited a copy of
Milton's Defensio secunda pro Populo Aw/licano,
published in 1654, containing at page 106 the
noticeable reference in grave and emphatic
language to Johannes Bradscianus, nobili familia
ut satis noUim est ortus — " a name consecrated by
Liberty to immortal renown in every country
where her power is acknowledged." In this
eloquent tribute to the career of his friend (said
Mr Bailey) Milton exhibits much familiarity with
his private as well as his public character. " In
domestic life to his utmost power he (Bradshaw)
is hospitable and splendid ; amidst all the vicissi-
tudes of fortune a friend most faithful and firm ;
instant and eager to acknowledge merit where-
ever it is discovered, as well as most munificent
to reward it. The pious, the learned, the emi-
nent in every walk of genius, the soldier, and
the hero, are either relieved by his weal h if in
distress, or, if otherwise, are cherished by his
kind attentions and regard."

Bradshaw's character has been deeply coloured
by his connection with the trial of King Charles,
and such books as the History of the King Killers
and the " poor, little, brown lying Flacjellum, "
present him in the blackest light. Yet his Re-
publicanism was as staunch as that of Milton,
and was evidenced by his protest to Cromwell,
.April 30, 1653, when that Dictator dissolved the
Long Parliament. " No power under heaven,"
said Bradshaw, " could dissolve them but them-
selves; therefore take you notice of that!" It
was unfortunate (continued Mr Bailey) that but
very few personal papers or memoirs were left to
indicate Bradshaw's true character and to guide
the critic to an accurate delineation of it. But
there is an exception in the case of Lis will,
dated March 22, 1653 4, which indirectly tells us
much of his springs of action. The exordium
was very striking, and seemed to caution us
against too readily believing that this portion of
the ancient wills was copied from forms or
models in books of precedents. The gravest
moments of a man's life, when he is called upon
to review his relations to his Maker, his family,
and friends, is not a moment when he stands in

need of borrowed language ; for his feelings
prompt the sentiments of his heart. The open-
ing sentences in theso old testaments often ex-
press the spirit and philosophy of a maa'a life.

In the name of God. Amen. I, John Bra/l*hawj
Sergeant-at-law, and Chief Justice of Che»t«;r, t^lng
in good health and perfect memory, pral»e<l be God,
yet Benaible of the uncertaintye of thin fraile life, find
itt (itt and convenient, having through grac* thi«
opportunitie lent mce U) make and declare my la«t
will and testament. First, I bequeath my »oule to
Almighty God trusting— through faith in the blood of
Son my .Saviour— to be made partaker of everlasting
life, and that my sinnes being graciousl.' pardoned I
ehall appeare clothed in the righteousness of Chriet.
my elder brother, to whom, with the Fa' her and the
Blessed Spiritt be glory and prayse for ever. My iK/dy
I commend to the earth to be interred in decent and
christian buriall at the discretion of ray executor if I
dye neare her, otherwise of such servants as shal be
about raee, without observing the vanitie of any
funerall pompe.

The will is chiefly concerned with the adminis>
tration of the large property which the testator
had acquired in the counties of Middlesex and
Kent from the confiscated estates of the Royalists.
The spirit of the document shows that he was a
just and benevolent man. He was bountiful t«
the foundation of the school at Middieton as well
as to that at Bunbury. His interest in Marple
was also manifested, evidencing a close intimacy
with Marple Hall. He devoted the huge sum of
£700 to maintain a free school at Marple. None
of these bequests, however, were carried out
owing to his property at the Restoration revert-
ing to its former possessors. The concluding pas-
sage of the will is very noticeable, being an
earnest and touching encouragement to his wife
(Mary, daughter of one of the Marburys of Mar-
bury Hill, Cheshire, see under date of October
21, 1600), whom he very tenderly loved. The
Judge had some presentiment when he penned
the will that his departure would precede hers ;
and he introduces that grand and familiar
description of the Almighty in Isaiah as the
Guardian from generation to generation of the
families of the just : —

I d'l lastly make my said and well-beloved and dear
wife my sole executor of this my last will and testap
ment, desiring her to put her trust in Him who is the
Eock of Ages, and who will be a husband that cannot
be taken away.

Judge Bradshaw's heir was his nephew Henry,
son of Colonel Henry Bradshaw (1601-1662), who
lived from 1635 to 1698, and he had a special be-
quest of the Judge's law books, and such divinity,
history, and other books as the executrix should
judge fittest for him.

8. — RiCHAPD THE SONNE OF RiCHABD BCCKLET ESQUIEB
SONNE AND HEIEE OF Se RiCHARD BuCKLEY OF

Bewmaeres in the countieof Anglesea Knight
WAS baptised the 8th.

Richard Bulkeley, whose baptism is here given,
was the eldest son of Richard Bulkeley and
Katherine Needham his wife, and was grandson
to Sir Richard Bulkeley, Kt., of Beaumaris and
Cheadle. The second-named Richard Bulkeley
died before his father, Sir R'chard ; and Mr
Enrwaker {East Cheshire 1-171) thinks it probable
that, after the death of the latter, the Bulkeley
estates were divided, seeing that he had to pro-
vide for the offspring ©f two marriages. It is
supposed that the Cheadle, Whatcroft, and other
Cheshire properties remained with the heirs of
Sir Richard by his first wife, the Beaumaris
and Welsh estates being settled upon his heirs by
his second marriage. In 1622 Katherine Bulkeley,
widow of Richard Bulkeley, Esquire, and the
mother of Richard whose baptism is given above,
petitioned the Court of Wards and Liveries of the
Prince of Wales, as Earl of Chester, and was al-
lowed to retain the wardship and marriage of her
son, who, being under age, had become a ward of
the Earl. A commission was also issued to divide
into three parts all the lands held by the late
Richard Bulkeley. The Richard Bulkeley whose
baptism is above recorded only lived to be about
twenty -three years of age, dying at the PeeJe, an
old moated house in Northen Etchells, September
26, 1633, and was buried at Cheadle the following
day. He had married, about 1630, Dorothy,
daughter of Sir Thomas H-'skias, of Oxsted, co.
Surrey, by whom he had Humphrey Bulkeley, a
posthumous son, born November 29, 1633, died
February 17, 1636-7. There was also a daughter,
ultimately his sole heiress, who married Sii Henry
Ayloffe, bart.

Henry Arderne and the above-named Margaret his
wife; in o+iher words, to quote the family
pedigree, " the same day that her mother was
married to her husband's father." William
Davenport the younger died during the lifetime
of his father and of his grandfather, being buried

Richard Gerard was the second son of William
Gerard of Flambords, near Harrow-on-ihe-Hill,
county Middlesex, Esquire, and hip wife Dorothie»
daughter of Thomas Page, of Salisbury f? Sud-
bury] C'Urt. These Gerards were a branch of the
family of the Gerards of Ince, who descended
from the Gerards of Bryn, both in the county of
Lancaster. Sir Gilbert Gerald Knt. Attorney-
General to Queen Elizabeth and afterwards
Master of the Rolls, who presented him to Stock-
port, was his uncle. He was collated prebendary
of Southwell in 1580, and was also one of the chap-
lains to Queen Elizabeth. In 1585 6 he is named as
one who had to supply money towards the
furnishing of horsemen for the army in the
Netherlands, and in 1597 he gave the sum of £30
on a writ of Privy Seal. He married at Stock-
port, January 19, 1584-5, Ursula, the youngest
daughter of Ralph Arderne, of Harden Esquire, by
his second wife Ellen, daughter of Sir Richard
Bulkeley, of Beaumaris and Cueadle, Knt. By
her he had a family of ten children, of whom
there are numerous entries in these Registers.
His youngest son Thomas Gerard, baptised at
Stockport January 11, 1604-5, married there May
10, 1627, Beatrix, daughter of Robert Hyde, of
Hyde and Norbury, Esquire, and was the founder
of the line of the Gerards, of Riddings Hall
Timperley, in Bowdon parish, of whom there is a
pedigree of five generations entered in the
Cheshire Visitation of 1663-4. Elizabeth Gerard,
one of Richard Gerard's daughters, baptised at
Stockport, September 19,1591, was married there
February 13, 1616-17, to Oswald Mosley, of
Garratt Hall, near Manchester, Esquire. Richard
Gerard was in his sixty-first year at the time of
his death, and an elaborate monument " painted
upon cloth and set in a frame of wood " was
placed to his memory in the chancel by his
daughter, the above-named Elizabeth Mosley in
1628. It has long since disappeared, but is
figured and described by Randle Holme in tl e
Harleian MSS. (2151). Richard Gerard's wife

BUEIED at the ChUECH OF MANCHESTEE THE

27th.

Richard Eenyon was the son of Richard
Kenyon of Manchester, and " cozen," probably
nephew, of George Kenyon, of Kersal, near Man-
chester. He was elected fellow of the Colle-
giate Church, Manchester, in 1601-2, and was in-
stituted to the Vicarage of Rochdale February
22, 1660-7. On his presentation to Stockport by
Rev. John Langley he paid his composition for
First Fruits to the Exchequer at London, on May
28, 1614, and he held this living, together with
that of Rochdale, till his death in the following
year. The Rev. John Langley, M.A., who pre-
sented him, was his friend and neighbour the
the rector of Prestwich. There can be no doubt
there was something informal about his elec-
tion, probably owing to the outlawry of John
Warren, of Poynton, Esquire, the patron of Stock-
port, for there are still preserved at Chester,
Letters Patent presenting to the rectory of Stock-
port, granted June 9, 1614, to Edward Doughtie
on the death of Richard Gerard. Kenyon, how-
ever, died Rector of Stockport, as proved by the
entry of his burial.

AUGUST, 1616.
Imp. The Steeple of the Chueche of Stockpobt

WAS BEGUN to BE BUILDED AXNO DSI 1612 AXD IT

was finished the fibst day of this instant
August Anno Supeadicto.

The tower of Stockport Parish Church, here
recorded as having been completed, belonged,
says Dr Heginbotham, to no particular periud of
archiieclure. Its summit was embattled and
ornamented with eight small crocketed pinnacles,
six of which now surmount the entrance to the
burial ground in St. Mary's-gate. This was
done when the church was rebuilt in 1810-13.
There is a paiuting of the church as it then
stood now io the possession of the Corporation,
and painted by William Shuttleworth, a Stock-
port artist ; an illustration cf it may also be seen
in Dr Heginbotham's hist'^ry of the borough. As
it then stood the church was of three periods ;
the chancel dating from c. 1290; the nave from 16th
century; and the tower from 1616. The tower.

Stockport Parisjj Registers*

prior to 1810, had a door at the bottom, giving
admission to the ground-floor of the steeple, and
through it to the north aisle. The next storey
was the ringers' room, lighted on the west by a
decorated window. Above this was the room
containing the clock, furnished with a set of
sweet chimes, whilst the uppermost storey was
the belfry. The roof was covered with lead, and
had upon it an elaborate vane, which, in 1810,
was taken to Disley. About the commencement
of the present century, a portion of the tower
having given way, some rude buttresses were
erected to support it, but in 1805, the bells having
been rung for several days in succession, in cele-
bration of Nelson's great victory at Trafalgar,
the old tower was so shaken that it became dan-
gerous. The bells were therefore seldom rung
afterwards, and the last time they were pealed
from that tower was on October 13th, 1809 at
the jubilee of George III.

Ed ward Doughtie, M. A.,S.T. P., dean of Hereford
(1607-1616) according to the deed at Chester,
dated June, 1614, was first presented to the living
at Stockport by the King (James I.), but this did
not lead to his institution. His second presenta-
tion by Thomas Edney, as well as by the King,
dated August 1, 1615, was followed by his insti-
tution. He was one of the King's chaplains,
wi ioh was probably the reason of his obtaining
the living of Stockport, as the King still claimed
the right of presentation on account of the out-
lawry for simony ©f the patron, one of the
Warrens of Poynton. The rector only held the

This is the earliest record of any minister serv-

at Norbury is in 1673, when it acquired some
notoriety owing to an action brought against the
Rev John Jolly, a Nonconformist minister, fo^
preaching there. This chapel in 1673 was a plain
brick building, which had probably taken the
place of an earlier chapel of timber and plaster,
and stood nearly opposite Norbury Hall, now a
farmhouse, " on the demesne lands of Mr Hyde

Comparing this entry with the particulars to
be found in Earwaker's East Cheshire (i-lS5) re-
lating to the family of Bridge, of Bridge Hall,
Edgeley, it would appear as if he had overlooked
it. In a list of freeholders living in
the Macclesfield Hundred in 1579, occurs the
name of " Robert Bridge, of Bridge, gent." Mr
Earwaker says he was the last of this family, the
estate passing to George Parker, who married hia
daughoer. In the above entry of the buriil of
Henry Bridge, of Bridge Hall, is evidence of a
later member of the family than the one referred
to by Mr Earwaker. Bridge Hall, now a modern-
ised farmhouse, was owned, a- early as the 15th
century, by a family named Bridge, from whcm
it derived its name. In 1504, when Sir Jo! n
Percival founded and endowed the Macclesfied

Stockport ^arislj l^egister^.

Grammar School, ono ot the trustees that ho
appointed was "John Bridges, of Edgeloy," and
he also desired that his "Kynncsman Maister
William Bridges," might bo elected the first
master of the school, which was accordingly dnne.

Dr Ormerod thinks the family took their name
from the Bridge over the Mersey at Stockport,
of which they had the wardship in the fourteen ili
century. The family remained here many genera-
tions as freeholders, subsequently being found as
proprietors of Bridge Hall, Cheadle.

Edward Holland of Denton, and in commemora-
tion of her marriage with Joiin Arderno circa
1598 there was executed and placed in St. Peter's
Chapel of Stockport Parish Church a piece of
blazonry that has puzzled not a few. In 1662
Randle Holme, the Cheshire antiquary, visited
Stockport Parish Church for the purpose of
noting the monuments, coats of arms, etc., in the
church for his book the Academy of Armory,
printed at Chester in 1688. He tells us that at
that time on *' a pillar in Mr Ardorne's seat,"
painted on wood, were three shields of arms.
These shields are still in existence, and are now
(1888) fixed to three sides of the most easterly
pillar in the south aisle, and in what was then
known as St. Peter's Chapel. The central ."hield,
with the date 1598, is the Arderne shield, with five
quarterings impaling Holland of Denton, and
commemorating the marriage of John and Mary
Arderne. The oiher two shields are : The one on
the right Arderne impaling Legh of Adington
and the one on the left Marbury, of five quarter-
ings, impaling Arderne. These have reference to
the marriage of a son and daughter of John
Arderne's with members of the families of Legh
of Adlington and Marbury of Marbury respec-
tively.

This entry in the Stockport Parish Registers
undoubtedly ranks next in interest with that re-
cording the baptism of President Bradshaw, with
whom Dukinfield lived contemporary, and like
wise a staunch adherent to the cause of the Par-
liament during the Civil War. His father
Robert Dukiufield, of Dukinfield, was baptised
at Aghton-under-Lyne, August 14, 1597, and was
buried at Stockport, August 30, 1630, having
married Frances, daughter of George Preston, of
Ho)ker, co. Lane, Esquire, at Cartmel Church,
August 23, 16 18. At the time of his father's
death in 1630, Robert Dukinfield was eleven years
old, and at the outbreak of the Civil War in
1642, he was but little more than a
youth. Nevertheless, he was, says Mr
Earwaker (East Cheshire ii-13) appointed
one of the Commissioners for Cheshire for se-
questering the estates of the delinquents, and for
raising money for the Parliament. In February,
1643-4 he attacked and t<i)ok Wythenshawe Hall,
and on May 25, 1644, he, together with Colonel
Henry Mainwaring, commanded the forces sent
to guard Stockport, and prevent Prince Rupert's
march into Lancashire. From a letter preserved
in the Egerton MSS. in the British Museum, and
written by him from Dukinfield, April 5, 1645, it
appears that in the previous winter he and bis
troops had served at the siege of Beeston Castle
and in Wiiral, and that he was much pressed for
money to pay his men. In the proceedings of the
House of Commons, May 24, 1648, it is mentioned
that he had held a meeting with the gentlemen of
Cheshire, and had promised to raise three regi-
ments of foot and one of horse.

In 1649 he was High Sheriff of Cheshire, and
in the following year was appointed Governor of
Chester, and in that capacity was directed by
Parliament to summon the Court Martial for the
trial of the Earl of Derby, Sir Timothy Fether-
fitonhaugh and Captain John Benbow, at Chester

in September, 1651. The Court Martial was held
Septcmtjcr 29, 1651, and with Colonel Dukin-
field sat Colonel Henry Bra/Jshaw and
Lieutenant-colonel Newtori, of Newtfjc-in-Lo. „-
dendale. It is said that a pardon was granted
to the Karl of Derby, and entru-*tt-d to Colonel
Dukinfield, who so arranged that it, should reach
Bolton too late, but there is little or no reason for
believing this siory. In the spring of 1C32,
Colonel Dukinfield proceeded to the Isle of M^nn,
and by '.he aid of treachery succeeded in reducing
the island and taking the Countess of Darby aiid
her children prisoners, for which he and Colonel
Birch received the thanks oi Parliament. In s
very interesting letter, written by the Earl of
Derby, from Chester, shortly before his death,
and addressed to his wife, then at the Isle of
Mann, he aivises Ler to make the best conditions
she can " with Colonel Dukinfield, who, being so
much a gentleman born, will doubtless for bis
own honour deal fairly with you."

In 1653, Colonel Dukinfield was returned as ore
of the members of Parliament for Cheshire, and
was placed on Cromwell's council in July that
year. Some years later, in 1659, he was asso-
ciated with General Lambert in suppressing J^ir
George Booth's f imous " Cheshire Rising " in
favour of the exiled princes. After the restora-
tion of Charles II., he was tried as one of the
court martial of the Earl of Derby, and it is
stated that he was imprisoned in the country on
some charge of being concerned with others in a
plot to seize the King and restore the Parliament

Colonel Dukinfield appears to have resided at
Dukinfield Hall, Dukinfield, and as a staunch
Puritan was one of the leaders of Nonconformity
in the North of England. He died September 18,
1689, aged 70 years, and was buried at Dentcn.
A tombstone beariBg the following inscription is
BOW placed on the s^uth side of Dukinfield
Chapel : —

Colonel Robert Dukinfield, of Dukinfield, Esquire,
who died September 18th, 1689, aged abeut SO years
and was buried at Denton Ctiapel. And here lye the
remains of Juditfi, his Relict, who died Febrnar
23rd, 1738-9, aged 86 years. And also the remains of
John Dukinfield, their son, who died Octol)er 25th,
1762, aged 76 years.

The most prominent historians of our county
have dropped into error with respect to the birth
or baptism and death of Colonel Dukinfield. The
Rev. John Watson, M.A., F.S A., rector of Ftock-
port (1769-1783), in the MSS. known by his
n>»me, says the Colonel Dukinfield was born
August 28, 1619. Helsby's edition of Ormerod
corrects this, and says that baptised is meint,
Mr Earwaker also records his baptisms as August

Stocltport ^Parisfj l^egisters.

28, instead of September 28, 1619. In the first
edition of Ormerod it ia stated that Colonel Dukin-
field's death occurred before 1665, when his eon
•was knighted by Charles II. That Sir Robert
Dukinfield was knighted during the lifetinae of
his father there is conclusive proof, the two here
given being extracted from the Nonconformist
Register kept by the Rev. Oliver Heywood, of
Coley, Yorkshire, and son-in-law of Rev. Samuel
Angier, of Denton.

1678. Colonel Duckinfield, of Duckinfield, and
Judith, Nathl. Bottornleys daughter, near Peniston,
married August 20. Sir Robert Dukinfielda lady
dying of childbed the same week.

1689. Old Colonel Dukinfield (Sir Robert ffather)
died Sep., aged 74. A useful man,

When Colonel Dukinfield died in 1689 he was just
completing the allotted span of human life^
threescore years and ten, and not eighty years as
recorded on the tablet at Dukinfield Chapel.

Colonel Dukinfield was twice married. His
first wife was Martha, daughter of Sir Miles
Fleetwood, of Hesketh co.. Lane, Knt. ; married
c 1640, and by whom he had four sons and four
daughters. She died October 2, 1669, and on
August 20, 1678, he married for his second wife
Judith, daughter of Nathaniel Bottomley, of Caw-
thorne, near Barnsley, co. York, by whom he had
four sons and two daughters. She died February
23, 1738-9, and was buried at Dukinfield.
