MARY WATERS, LADY TYNTE:
WATERS OR WATKINS OF SCETHROG.
(See ante, p, 178.)
IN 1698 John Waters the younger gave a silver tankard of the value of 101. , weighing 31 oz., to Jesus College, Oxford. In 1701, only three years afterwards, it was converted into another form of tankard holding a quart, cylindrical in form, with a domed lid, a moulding surrounding the lower part of the body, and a scrolled handle with
whistle end. The inscription states that
" it was given by John Walters of the town
of Brecon." During the seventeenth century
it became the rule for gentlemen-commoners
to present plate bearing the donor's name
and arms ; it was almost a condition of
admission. At that time most Breconshire
men went to Jesus College, it having been
founded by Dr. Hugh Price, a native of
Brecon.
The name of John Walters appears frequently as a magistrate in the Minute Book of the Breconshire Quarter Sessions, from the time he came of age until his death.
In 1704 John Waters married Jane, one of the two coheiresses of Judge Francis Lloyd of the North Wales Circuit, from whom she and her sister Frances inherited a large estate. She had a most interesting descent, her paternal great-grandfather being Sir Marmaduke Lloyd, Kt., Chief Justice of the Brecon Circuit from 1636 to 1645. A devoted Royalist, he suffered personally and financially, being taken prisoner by the Parliamentarian army at the siege of Hereford, 1645. Henry Vaughan, Silurist, was Clerk of Assize to Sir Marmaduke until his imprisonment. Sir M. Lloyd was nephew to Dr. Marmaduke Middleton, Bishop of St. David's 1582-90, and was of Maes-y- felin, Cardiganshire. His arms, which have been mentioned as a quartering on Lady Tynte's hatchment, were granted to his ancestor Cadifor ap Dinawel by his kinsman the Lord Rhys for taking Cardigan Castle by escalade.
Mary Waters was not six years old when her father died, and she was probably left to the special guardianship of her uncle Mr. William Philips, Recorder of Brecon, who had married her aunt Anne Waters as his first wife. After the death of Mrs. Philips the Recorder married Frances, daughter and coheiress of Judge Francis Lloyd, and widow of Thomas Williams, Esq., of Talley. Mr. Philips was also a kinsman of Mary Waters, his mother having been Margaret, daughter of Thomas Penry, mercer, and by his marriage he became doubly her uncle. His daughter Anne was born a few months before her cousin Mary Waters. The charming old house where Mr. Philips lived, and where his niece may have passed many of her early days, is still standing in Glamorgan Street. Its panelled rooms, fine staircase, and deep garden reaching to the old town walls are but little changed. Mary Waters was executrix of her father's will, and at the
