Family compact

	AN UNLIKELY COUNTESS: Lily Budge and the 13th Earl of Galloway
		But she was the Countess of Galloway, and she stood by him, and tried to make ends meet from her little shop in Thistle Street.
		The marriage of this oddly matched pair was to lead to a bitter family feud, Randolph’s disinheritance, a Dickensian legal wrangle, an attempted murder, and the eventual emergence of Lily, Countess of Galloway, as the toast of Edinburgh society.
		Since An Unlikely Countess is a book about the living as well as the dead, Carpenter concludes the story by accompanying Randolph to All Saints, Challoch, Newton Stewart, where a corner of the graveyard is dominated by Stewart family tombstones.

	Edmund WALSINGHAM of Scadbury (Sir)
		Bishop Fisher complained of the harsh treatment he received, and the Countess of Salisbury suffered horribly from cold during her winter there; even the Council in London remonstrated that unless the Duchess of Norfolk and others arraigned with her were given some liberty within the Tower they could not long survive.
		Walsingham later took a 99 year lease of the manor of Tyting, Surrey, from the Bishop of Exeter and another of the manor of Stanground in Huntingdonshire, previously belonging to the abbey of Thorney.
		That Walsingham, unlike Browne, was not to be re-elected in 1547 is perhaps a reflection of Queen Catherine's loss of influence, although his approaching death may have cast its shadow before.

		Walsingham, in north Norfolk, England (United Kingdom) has been a place of pilgrimage since medieval times, when travel to Rome and Compostella was virtually impossible.
		Yet these priests and teachers are expected to be able to go to Walsingham and like places, and to address crowds of passionate devotees whose hearts are overflowing with love for and trust in the Mother of God.
		Walsingham, just a few miles from the Norfolk coast, is a sanctuary of prayer and healing, a metaphor of salvation from storm and shipwreck, offering calm waters and safe harbor to all in trouble.

		WALSINGHAM, (LITTLE) or NEW WALSINGHAM, is, notwithstanding its appellation, more populous, and equally as ancient, as its neighbour, Old Walsingham, being a neat market-town, with 1,155 inhabitants, and pleasantly seated in the picturesque valley of the Stiffkey river, 5 miles S.
		In addition to this once celebrated place of monastic splendour, and human superstition, there was here a house of Grey Friars, founded by Lady Elizabeth de Burgh, Countess of Clare; but its fame was eclipsed by the superior grandeur of the priory, and poverty kept it still further in the shade of obscurity.
		The inhabitants of Walsingham considered that the dissolution of their priory, and the loss of the pilgrimages to the Virgin, would, in a great measure, ruin the town; they therefore assembled in a riotous mob to oppose the King's officers, in 1537, but were soon dispersed.

	Friaries: Franciscan friars of Walsingham \| British History Online
		Licence was granted by Edward III on 1 February, 1347, to Elizabeth de Burgh, countess of Clare, to found a house of -Friars Minor in Walsingham.
		The celebrated Austin priory of the same town did their best to stop the countess, who was their patroness, from carrying out her intention, dreading no doubt that the poorer pilgrims to Our Lady of Walsingham would find gratis accommodation with the friars.
		The soundest, perhaps, of the many arguments that they addressed to the countess was that the friars had already sufficient habitations in the district; for there was Burnham, four miles on one side, and Snitterley not much farther off on the other; but they omitted to state that these were Carmelite and not Franciscan settlements.

	About Holy Redeemer
		Beginning as a mission church founded from St Philip's, Granville Square, on the site of the Countess of Huntingdon's Spa Fields Chapel, the building was not to be of the popular 'cheap Gothic' type, but rather 'stately and impressive, uplifting the minds and hearts of those who dwelt beneath its shadow'.
		Externally, the church has changed much from its initial appearance with the addition of the clergy house and campanile on the south side in 1906, and that of the Institute building, containing the parish hall and what were once nuns' cells and rooms for the 'bettering of the poor', on the north side in 1916.
		The altar of Our Lady Of Walsingham on the south side was the latest addition to the church, some time in the 1960s, as a result of the close links between the parish and the shrine at Walsingham.

	Biography - Lord Chesterfield
		His death was an overwhelming grief to Chesterfield, and the discovery that he had long been married to a lady of humble origin must have been galling in the extreme to his father after his careful instruction in worldly wisdom.
		Chesterfield, who had no children by his wife, Melusina von der Schulenburg, Countess of Walsingham, an illegitimate daughter of George I by Ehrengard Melusine von der Schulenburg, Duchess of Kendal and Munster, whom he married in 1733, adopted his godson, a distant cousin, also named Philip Stanhope (1755-1815), as heir to the title and estates.
		His famous jest (which even Johnson allowed to have merit), "Tyrawley and I have been dead these two years, but we don't choose to have it known," is the best description possible of his humour and condition during the latter part of this period of decline.

		In 1751 the Countess of Yarmouth was given an annual pension on the Irish establishment of £4,000, which continued for over twenty years.
		And it is worthy of remark, that while women like the Countess of Yarmouth or the Queen of Denmark received these large pensions on the Irish establishment, Catherine Talbot, the wife of an Irishman who died in action, was only given £50 a year by the Government.
		A further scandal in the matter was that very often a pension annexed to an office was continued after the owner was promoted to another place, and therefore could not, or would not, fulfil the duties formerly attached to his pension.
