Reinold and Matthew Marvin 157 whom he once called his brethren, was in the course of the year [1557] presented to the vicarage."* On the death of Tye, Bishop Grindall presented the living to John Dodman, 24 February, 1559. William Thorne suc- ceeded, 31 March, 1569; on his death Robert Dernell was • appointed 2 November, 1585, and was in charge when Reinold and Matthew were christened. He served until his death : Bishop Bancroft appointed, 20 February, 1601, a Deacon, John Todd, to succeed him. Todd seems to have held it in ex- change with Thomas Wennington, or Withington, who fol- lowed that Clergyman ; Todd was ordained Priest while at St. Mary's, and later was promoted to be Bishop of Down and Connor. After Wennington died, Richard King, S. T. P., became the incumbent 20 May, 161 2, but resigned the follow- ing year, and Richard Ram took charge 7 April, 161 3, but soon resigned, and 21 April, 161 5, Israel Edwards obtained the living: "he conformed."! Joseph Brodey held it tem- porarily, by whose authority does not appear. Archbishop Laud appointed, 5 May, 163 1, William Simpson, who must have been the Clergyman who certified that Matthew Marvin was "conformable." * Davids, " Annals of Non-Conformity in Essex," p. 48, where will be found some account of his cruel work. Fox, in his Martyrology, gives particulars of the martyrdom of members of the family of William Munt of Great Bentley, among them his daughter and his maid, Rose Allen, who were executed at Colchester 2 August, 1557 dealings with these and others of this Parish are described in a letter of Tye. See also Davids, as cited, pp. 46-51, for an interesting account of the occurrences there in that year. These must have been familiar tales to Edward Marvin, then a youth of Ramsey, where persecutions were also rife in his day, and on similar grounds. t Davids, as cited, p. 301. ;
158 The English Ancestry of The troubles lasted during the period which followed the departure of our ancestors. Nicholas Lewes was the next Vicar, 15 April, 1642, but his vicarage was "sequestered for that he hath been often drunke and useth to sit tipling in ale-houses seven or eight houres together, even on the Lord's dayes ; and affirmed that he hoped to see them all hanged that had set their hands against bishops and papists ; and by his example the people spend the greatest part of the Lord's day in pastimes and drinking at the ale-house ; and hath ex- pressed great malignancy against Parliament."* Those who followed him do not interest us. 60 Matthew, 6 (Edzvard, 5 Reinold, 4 John,* John* Roger, 1 ) brother of Reinold and the youngest son of Edward and Margaret Marvin, was baptized at St. Mary's Church, Great Bentley, 26 March, 1600. He received by his father's Will the property in that Parish occupied by the latter at the time of his death, " called Edons alles [alias] Dreybrockes, and ij Croftes of Land called Hartles and Brocken Heddes," conditionally that he paid to his mother during her life " the fulle sume of Sexe Poundes," in default of which the estate was to pass to his elder brother Reinold, with a like con- dition. He married as his first wife, about 1623, Elizabeth , who was born in 1604, for her age is given as 31 in the record in the "Augmentation Office," London, when she em- barked with her husband and five children for New England, in 1635. This marriage and the births of the two older * From an old record quoted by Davids.
