Suspected Persons in Kent

BY A. RHODES. WHITAE engaged in maldng some researches to annotate a list of certain Kentish tokens, I came across seven volumes formerly in the possession of Ralph Thoresby the antiquary, to whom they were presented by Robert Kircbingham, a merchant of Leeds. How they came into the possession of the latter it is impossible to say; their proper depository should be the Record Office. Though the series is incomplete, these volumes possess a certain value as throwing a vivid side light on the history of that period by revealing the elaborate system adopted by the Commonwealth for the registration of the movements of those suspected of Royalist sympathies, and they have special claim on the attention of the local historian, besides being useful in a biographical or genealogical sense. They are now in tbe British Museum (Add. MSS. 34,011-17), where they are described as "Eeturns made by the various Major-Generals and their Deputies presiding over the Military Districts into which the Protector Cromwell divided the country in 1655." Erom these Returns I have extracted all the entries relating to Kent, supplemented by another volume (Add. MSS 19,516), one of three, the other two being missing. Coming to the registration system we find that the local registrars forwarded lists of " suspected persons " to an office in London. The names of these were entered under counties in rough alphabetical order. The volume containing Kent is Add. MSS. 34,013, and the names are entered from four lists, the nature of which cannot be explained, nor does it seem to be of any consequence. I have marked all these extracts A. When one of the suspects travelled, the Registrar forwarded to the office in London the address where the traveller intended to lodge. These particulars were entered in a book (Add. MSS. 34,014) which I have marked B ; and so minute was the supervision that a removal from a lodging in one part of Eleet Street to another was duly recorded (see HORTON KIRBY). On the arrival of the traveller in London he had to certify to the central office the place of his lodging, and his arrival was notified to the Major-General commanding his county, as was the date of his removal or departure. Add. MSS. 19,516 is a " Booke of such Letters as from tyme to tyme have been sent from this Office to the Maior generalis of ye respective Associations of the Several Counties of this Nation." Extracts SUSPECTED PERSONS IN KENT. 69 from this book I have marked C. The office was at the " Three Kings " in Eleet Street, as appears from the following letter:— Mr REYNOLDS, Yours of the 5"' [May 1656] present I received directed to me at the golden cook on Ludgate Hill, a plaoe vtterly vnknown to me, nor to be found hy any person you gave suoh direction vnto. From my house at the 3 Kings in fleet stret. This Eeynolds was the " Eegistrar for receiving appearances of persons landing from forreigne parts at Dover," and his answer to this was not considered satisfactory, as it evoked a further official remonstrance:— 21 May 1656. Mr REYNOLDS, To what purpose should I give you such particular notice of the Street and Signe from whence I send my Letters hut for yor Information where yor returnes will finde mee out, and for your Excuse implying you might notwithstanding suppose the Office to be elsewhere; it would haue had some satisfaction therein, if after you had such a hint of the place whence I sent my letters, you had informed persons engaged to appeare that if they had been disappointed in one place they might have found mee in the other: but for the future there will I hope bee no occasion of such kind of writing as this, but having heard well of you from Mr Price, you may alsoe heare from mee as from yor very loving friend. Subsequently he received (in company with Mr. Tidey, the Eegistrar at Rye) a request, with the first part of which we can all agree, viz., to write " with a more plaine and legible hand, without which it is not easie to read names of persons or places; and alsoe that you would send the name of the parish, street, and house where persons intending for London purpose to lodge." Mr. John Kingsland, the Registrar at Deal, was likewise reminded that he had omitted to mention the house, street, and parish of such of those sent in his list as intend to lodge in and about London. On 23 September 1656 a " Newe Booke " is sent to Mr. Eeynolds, and a memorandum that "what he has intimated about the return of a banisht person from the Barbadoes shall be remembered." The Eegistrar at Gravesend was named Belling. The following is the form of the letters to the Major-Generals :— HONWO Sr, John Trowte of ffaversham in y° Countie of Kent, Gent., the 7"' p'sent p'sonally gave notice of y° place of his Lodging a' Also of his Intension on this day or to Morrow the 8"' p'sent to return to ffaversham aforesd. I only Add Honble. Sr, London, 7"' ffebru. 1655-[6]. Yor humble Servant. These To his honWo frend Coll1 Kelsey, Ma. Gen" for ye Counties of Kent & Surrey, p'sent. And the form of entry of abode will be seen under HORTON KIRBY ; sometimes the entry specifies that the notification to the office has been made in person (see EAVERSHAM, ULCOMBE). Not 70 SUSPECTED PERSONS IN KENT. only were the movements of residents minutely traced, but those of officials passing through on State affairs:— 12 Feb. 1655-[6]. John Lord Bellasio on ye 15 p'sent gave notice of ye place of his Lodging, and likewise of his Lordp" Intention from Kente to remoue vpon Monday or Teusday next towards Dover or Rie to imbark himselfe for ffrance, by reason of a licence from his highnesse Councell dated ye 12"' p'sent. Also Thomas Cantly, Meniall Serv', to attend his Lordship. 21 Aug. [1656]. Charles Gibbons of St. Clement's Dane on the 18"' gave notice of his intention to remoue to Gravesend, and from thence the day following to Dover, and thence to imbarque himself for Callice in France by a Lycence under the hand and seale of the Lord Fleetwood, late Ld. Dept. of Ireland. Eor convenience of reference I have arranged the matter alphabetically under the names of places, putting all the available items under one heading, with the name from A, the place of lodging from B, and removals from C. Curious as some of the information is, unfortunately the series is incomplete: A contains names only; B.the most interesting, concludes on 11 June. There were two other volumes, for Add. MSS. 34,017 is an index of names with references to two volumes missing from the series. The remaining notices of removal are taken from C. A glance at the list will exhibit some names of which there is nothing beyond their entry in the lists as suspects; on the other hand, names occur in the removals which are not in the lists. One list also supplies the deficiency of another ; for instance, Pordage is entered in A as " of Preston," hut the particular Preston is identified by C as "neer e Paversham" (see also MARGATE). These travels might serve as a guide in many instances to one searching for a register of marriage or death, as it is just possible that frequent journeys to one place might indicate an amorous errand as well as professional business, and an invalid, say at Tunbridge, might never return to his earthly home. Eor this reason I have thought it advisable to include all those moving into Kent (see TUNBRIDGE, SUTTON.) It was at one time my intention to have annotated each name wherever possible by biographical or topographical details; and although I gathered many interesting items, 1 abandoned the task as requiring more time and labour than I could devote to it. A few hints only have been inserted to clear up some dubious points. ASH.—John Solley, yeoman.
