NOTES AND QUERIES. us. vi. MAT is, 1920.


BROWNE : SMALL, : WRENCH : MACBRIDE. I should be glad of information about any of the following :

John Browne, Regius Chirurgus Ordin- arius, born 1642. A portrait engraved by R. White, with a coat of arms below, which I am not sufficiently versed in heraldry to be able to describe.

Alexander Small, Chirurgus. A mezzo- tint portrait after B. Dandridge, engraved by J. Faber, probably about 1740.

Sir Benjamin Wrench, M.D., born 1665. Practised as a physician in Norwich for over sixty years.

David Macbride, M.D., probably of Dublin, about 1797. A portrait engraved by J. T. Smith after Reynolds of Dublin, and published in London, 1797.

D. A. V. MOSES.

PRINTS ILLUSTRATING IRISH HISTORY, 1*79-80. 1. The late Dr. Richard Bagwell ('Ireland Under the Tudors,' iii. 21, 22), writing of the murder of Henry Davells and Arthur Carter by Sir John of Desmond in 1579, alludes to " a curious print " illustrating it. Where is this print to be seen ?

2. An old print illustrating the attack by the English fleet on the Castell dell' Oro in Smerwick Harbour in 1580 was reproduced in an Irish magazine (I think The Kerry Magazine of 1854). Where is this print to be seen now ?

I am told that neither is in the British Museum. JOHN B. WAINEWRIGHT.

GILBERT, BISHOP OF LISBON. The first Bishop of Lisbon after it was reconquered from the Moors was an English monk named Gilbert, who died April 27, 1166. He is not in the 'D.N.B.' Is anything known about him ? JOHN B. WAINEWRIGHT.

PORTRAIT OF Miss PRICE. I should be very grateful if any one could give me particulars of the portrait of Miss Price, engraved by F. Bartolozzi from a picture by Sir Peter Lely, published July, 1808, by John White, Fleet Street, and John Scott, Strand. To what family of Price did she belong and who were her parents ?

(buried at Westerfield Jan. 16, 1778) a third) son, Robert, baptized at Henley Jan. 11, 1732. Was the last named identical with* the Robert Roe who died Feb. 13, 1818,. aged 86, and was buried at Darmsden, not* far from Henley ?

Robert Roe of Darmsden married Mary (Robinson ?), who died Jan. 6, 1815, aged 83,. and was buried at the same place. Amongst? their children were :

1. Joseph Roe of Ipswich, married Jemima^ Coe(?), and had (a) Robert of Cambridge, died July 31, 1880, in 88th year, engraver and miniature painter, who left issue ; (6) Joseph of Brook Street, Ipswich, died* July 17, 1877, aged 81, leaving issue ; (c) Owen of Brook Street and Museum Street, Ipswich, died s.p, Nov. 9, 1884, aged 87.

SCOTTISH BISHOPS. The voluntary workers of the Clerical Index Society ar desirous of compiling a complete and' up-to-date list of all the bishops who have held the sees of the Church of England in Scotland from the date of their foundations. Can any reader help us, either with complete succession lists of any one see or the whole ? Most works of reference are out of date and full of errors. What are chiefly wanted are dates and places of consecration, resignation, death and burial. J. W. FAWCETT.

Templetown House, Consett, co. Durham.

JEANNE OF FLANDERS. Is there any account, other than that in the chronicles of Froissart of the adventures of this valorous lady, known as Jeanne la Flarnme one of the three "Amazons of Brittany" who engaged in the struggle for the lordship o' Brittany (1341-64) ? D. KING..
