NOTES AND QUERIES. [11 s. ix. MAY 9, 191*.

solicitor, of Birmingham. A part of it is printed in Hunter's ' Familiae Minorum Gentium.'

There are a number of P.C.C. wills, a list of which I append :

1557. Ellen Kendricke, Lyngfelde, Surrey (12 Wrastley).

1593. Thomas Kenricke, Libotswood, Salop (34 Nevell).

1598. Hugo Kenricke, " pronotharye " of Lon- don (6 Lewyn).

1615. John Kenrick, yeoman, Esington, Staffs (98 Budd).

1620. John Kendricke, citizen and clothworker, of All Saints', Stayning, London (100 Soanie).

1024. John Kendrick, draper, of St. Christopher le Stocks, London (116 Byrde).

1625. Johannis Kendrick, citizen of London (72 Clarke).

The Kendricks of London were the same as of Reading.

In the list of genealogies of American families issued by Joel MunseH's Sons, Albany, X.Y., the pedigree of Kendricks is offered for five dollars; but I notice that Mr. Carter says, in his articles in The Genealogist, that Mr. Greene Kendrick's book has never appeared, and that he (Mr. K.) has " vanished away into the immensity of the region over which the bird of freedom waves the star-spangled banner."

ANNO DOMINI (US. ix. 69, 133, 172). See the legends of the seal of the Abbey of Mar- moutier, 1235, " Renovatum anno domini MCCXXXV."; the seal of the Officialite de Paris, " Itras, fcm ano dni MCCXLVI. " ; and several later examples of the use of the phrase, on dated seals in J. Roman,' Manuel de Sigillographie Frangaise.'

HERALDIC (11 S. ix. 290, 334, 358). The shield contains the impaled arms of Baronby (Barneby) of Yorkshire, and Bosvile (Bos- well) of the same county. The Baronby arms were Azure, a chevron between three boars' heads couped or; the Bosviles of Ardesley, Argent, five fusils in fesse gules; in chief three bears' heads, erased and muzzled, sable. The second and third quarters in the husband's coat ( Vair, a fesse gules) belong to the family of Bracebridge (co. Lines). In the ' Visitation of York- shire ' (Harl. Soc. ) the marriage is recorded of " Robert or John Barneby, son and heir of Edmond Barneby of Barneby," with " Mar- garet, daughter of John Bosvile of Ardesley." The shield may represent this marriage (though it must be noted that the visitation

makes no mention of a Barneby-Bracebridge alliance). On the other hand, it is of course- quite possible that it represents a marriage between these families of a far more recent date. WILFRED DRAKE.

A BIRD NAME (US. ix. 348). Though I am unable to answer J. R. H.'s query, it may interest him to know that (according to Mr. W. H. Mullens, in Dr. Charles Stonham's ' The Birds of the British Isles,' p. 947) the pamphlet ' A Discourse on the Emigration of British Birds ' was not written by George Edwards, but by John Legg, who died 1802. This pamphlet appeared in 1780, 1795, and " a fourth edition " in 1814. On the title- page of the 1795 edition the word " Etotoli " is thus printed, but on p. 31 it appears as " Etoboli." H. S. G.

CROMWELL'S ILLEGITIMATE DAUGHTER, MRS. HARTOP (US. ix. 29, 94). I have a note taken some time ago from The General Magazine, vol. iv. p. 186 (date probably 1790), stating that a portrait of Cromwell by Samuel Cooper was then in the possession of Hartopp (aged 137), whose third wife was the illegitimate daughter of Cromwell. There may be further particulars concerning Mrs. Hartopp at this reference.

" AN HONEST MAN AND A GOOD BOWLER " (US. ix. 308). This quotation is in H. E. Porter's ' The Two Angry Women of Abing- don,' 1599 ; it also occurs in John Clarke's ' Parsemiologia Anglo - Latina .... or, Pro- verbs, English and Latin,' 1639, and in James Howell's 'Parley of Beasts,' 1660. Shakespeare in ' Love 's Labour 's Lost,' Act V. sc. ii. 1. 575, gives :

Costard. A foolish mild man ; an honest man, look you, and soon dashed. He is a marvellous good neighbour, faith, and a very good bowler.

In Quarles's 'Emblems' (1635), Book I. , Em. 10, we get

The vulgar proverb 's crost. He hardly can Be a good bowler and an honest man. Roger Ascham is also referred to as "An honest man and a good shooter " in Fuller's ' Worthies,' vol. iii. p. 210 ; and in addition to the above, John Taylor, the Water Poet, in ' The Goose ' (1621) says : It is a thing 1 have observed long, An archer's mind is clear from doing wrong. ARCHIE ALD SPARKE, F.R.S.L.

JOHN DOUGLAS HALLETT (11 S. ix. 307). Col. John Douglas Hallett, Bombay Army, had four sons at Rugby School, one of whom would no doubt give the required details.
