i GEORGE Ill.'s INTEREST IN FARMING. I
understand that in setting up a Yorkshire
farm (and others) near Windsor, George III.
imported families from Yorkshire or Lincoln-
shire to take up cultivation. I should be
glad to have all details concerning the
different farms, the names of these families,
and what became of them. CURIO-BOX.
KNIGHTS MADE AT THE CORONATION
OF QUEEN ANNE BOLEYN, 1533.
(US. xii. 301, 369.)
" THE noble triumphant Coronation of Queen Anne, wife unto the most noble King Henry VIII. Imprinted at London in Fleet Street by Wynkyn de Worde for John Gough " contains the fullest probably com- plete list of these knights. The pamphlet is included by the late Edward Arber in vol. ii. of his * English Garner.' On 25 May, " the Sunday before the Triumph," the King, we are told, made at his manor of Greenwich seven knights, whose names are ?iven. See the list in Metcalfe's ' Book of
- hts,' p. 62 ; also in Shaw's ' Knights of
V vol. ii. p. 49. On Friday, 30 May, the King made in the Tower nineteen Knights of the Bath names given by both Metcalfe (pp. 62-4) and Shaw (vol. i. pp. 149-50), but in both the number is reduced to eighteen by the omission of Lord Berkeley. On 31 May the King then again in the Tower made no fewer than forty-six " Knights of the Sword " ; and on 8 June at Greenwich eleven others. The lists of these are so much more extensive than those found in Metcalfe and Shaw who enumerate twenty only on 31 May, and, with one exception, omit altogether those on 8 June that I venture to ask the Editor of ' N. & Q.' to print them entire.
On 31 May (given by Shaw as 1 June) the knights made were :
Sir William Drury.
- Sir Thorn as Rush.
- Sir George Calverley.
- Sir George Conyers.
- Sir John Chaworth.
- Sir John Constable.
Sir John Horsley.
- Sir John Sant Clere.
- Sir Henry Feryngton.
- Those marked with an asterisk are in Metcalfe's
and Shaw's lists.
- Sir Thomas Halsall.
- Sir Anthony Windsor.
- Sir John Willoughby.
Sir Thomas Mysseden.
Sir Henry Delves.
Sir Richard Bulkeley.
Sir Walter Smith.
Sir William Uvedale.
Sir William Sandon.
SirEdmond Trafford.
Sir Henry Sutton.
Sir William Malory.
Sir John Tyrell.
Sir Nicholas Sturley.
Sir John Gerningham.
- Sir Randolph Brierton.
- Sir Edward Fytton.
- Sir Robert Nedham.
- Sir George Gresley.
- Sir Thomas Umpton.
- Sir Richard Lygon.
- Sir Edward Maidison.
- SirMarm. Tunstall.
Sir Robert Kirkham.
Sir Walter Hubbert.
Sir Thomas Kitson,
Sir Thomas Foulehurst.
Sir Peter Warburton.
Sir Thomas Laking.
Sir Henry Everyngham.
Sir Thomas Massingberd.
Sir James Baskervylle.
Sir Arthur Eyre.
Sir John Nories.
Sir John Harcourt.
Sir William Browne.
Sir Randolph Manering.
And on 8 June at Greenwich : Sir Christopher Corwen. Sir Geoffrey Mydelton. Sir Hugh Trevyneon. Sir George West. Sir Clement Herberton.
- Sir Humphrey Feries.
Sir John Dawn. Sir Richard Haughton. Sir Thomas Langton. Sir Edward Bowton. Sir Henry Capel.
The " Six Commoners " named by CANON FLETCHER do not appear amongst these creations, and, I fancy, are incorporated in the original MS. by some error. That all six were knights may be accepted, but their knighthood occurred at dates later than Anne Boleyn's coronation. They certainly were not Knights of the Bath.
" Mr. Verney of Penleye " may be easily identified as Ralph Verney of Periley, Herts,
