Isolated Cameos John <strong>Revell</strong> <strong>of</strong> Rockingham Forest Another John <strong>Revell</strong> is recorded in Rockingham Forest (Rokyngham, Rokingham) in the period ca 1390 to 1421, for example in 1390, ‘Grant, for life, to John Reuel <strong>of</strong> Bolewyk <strong>of</strong> the <strong>of</strong>fice <strong>of</strong> ranger <strong>of</strong> the bailiwicks <strong>of</strong> Brykstok and Clyve in Rokyngham forest, if no other person holds it by the king's grant. By p.s’, 279 in 1393 ‘Appointment <strong>of</strong> John Wakerley keeper <strong>of</strong> the bailiwick <strong>of</strong> Kyngesclyve, John Renell and Ge<strong>of</strong>fre Pyeke to arrest carpenters and other workmen, carters and carts for the fencing <strong>of</strong> queen Anne's park <strong>of</strong> Clyve and set them to work at her charges’, 280 and in 1399 ‘Exemplification, at the request <strong>of</strong> John Reuel, <strong>of</strong> the tenour <strong>of</strong> the enrolment <strong>of</strong> letters patent dated 14January18 Richard II, granting to him for life the <strong>of</strong>fice <strong>of</strong> ranger <strong>of</strong> the bailiwicks <strong>of</strong> Brykstok and Clyve within the forest <strong>of</strong> Rokyngham. <strong>The</strong>se letters have been accidentally lost, as John Rogers, squire, has taken oath in Chancery’. 281 Letters Patent were issued again, 282 and in 1404 the Patent Roll states ‘Commission to John Wakirley and John Reuell to take carpenters and other workmen for the emendation <strong>of</strong> the park <strong>of</strong> the king's consort Joan, queen <strong>of</strong> England, <strong>of</strong> Kyngesclyve, co. Northampton and, carters and carriage for the same’. 283 In 1421 the Patent Rolls record a commission for the arrest <strong>of</strong> ’one called Rynell <strong>of</strong> Rokingham’. 284 In 1397 a John Ryvell, with others is instructed to ‘arrest ditchers and other workmen for the construction and repair <strong>of</strong> the dykes and enclosures <strong>of</strong> the king’s laundes <strong>of</strong> Benyfeld and Birstokein the counties <strong>of</strong> Leicester, Northampton, Bedford and Huntingdon’, 285 and might well be the same individual. Benefield, Northamptonshire, is some six miles from Rockingham. In 1405 a John Ryvel, dyer, is recorded as one <strong>of</strong> the two Bailiffs for Northampton. 286 It is possible that this is the John Rivell <strong>of</strong> Northampton who was described as a Bailiff in 1405 / 6 and as M.P. in 1407. 287 A John Rynel who holds a tenement in Ludyngton is mentioned in 1408, 288 and again in 1448. 289 Ludyngton is Lyddington about three miles from Rockingham and these grants refer to a tenement <strong>of</strong> John Rynell on Crekeslane (Crekys Lane). <strong>The</strong> 1448 record might refer to a descendent <strong>of</strong> the John mentioned in 1408. On April 28 th 1490 the Patents Rolls has a record: ‘Richard Wodward <strong>of</strong> Kingescliff, co. Northampton, ‘husbondman’ for not appearing before the same when sued with Thomas Doraunt the younger, Thomas Doraunt the elder, ‘husbondmen’ and John Cotyngham, ‘laborer’ all <strong>of</strong> Kingescliff, to answer Thomas Ryvell touching a trespass’. 290 Thornton in his thesis entitled ‘Rural Society in the Manor Courts <strong>of</strong> Northamptonshire, 1350-1500’ (citing 115T NA: PRO SC21194n2 m. 4, Court Easter 10 Hen. VII) draws attention to a 1495 ‘presentment <strong>of</strong> ruinous buildings’ including one such at Brigstock belonging to Thomas Ryvell. 291 Geddington is about five miles from Rockingham and they are about 10 miles from Market Harborough and roughly equidistant from Norman’s Cross and Long Buckby. A Richard Rybell recorded at Market Harborough in 1449, 292 and a Thomas <strong>Revell</strong> a beneficiary in the will <strong>of</strong> Thomas Shepherd, husbandman, <strong>of</strong> Wilbarston, Northamptonshire, 293 in 1545 might also be connected. Wilbarston is some five miles from Rockingham. In 1547 a John <strong>Revell</strong>, is one <strong>of</strong> two Chaplains mentioned in connection with the manor <strong>of</strong> Noseley. 294 A Nicholas <strong>Revell</strong> is holding land at Oundle in 1550. <strong>The</strong>re is a cluster <strong>of</strong> records at Saint John the Baptist, Peterborough, in the late 16 th century. An Arthure <strong>Revell</strong> is recorded as the father <strong>of</strong> <strong>William</strong> <strong>Revell</strong> (baptised march 26 th 1581 / 2), Elizabeth <strong>Revell</strong> (baptised March 7 th 1584 / 5) and Jane <strong>Revell</strong> (baptised October 19 th 1588). A Vernard Reuell was baptised on June 9 th 1593 but his father was recorded only as Reuell. An Elizabeth <strong>Revell</strong> married Robert Watson on April 13 th 1602 and a Jane <strong>Revell</strong> married Thomas Hawllye on June 10 th 1613, possibly Arthure <strong>Revell</strong>’s daughters. A <strong>William</strong> <strong>Revell</strong>, possibly Arthur’s son, is recorded as the father <strong>of</strong> Elizabeth <strong>Revell</strong> (baptised December 21 st 1609 buried July 12 th 1611), George <strong>Revell</strong> (baptised August 28 th 1612), Elizabeth <strong>Revell</strong> (baptised February 14 th 1615 / 6) and Agnes <strong>Revell</strong> (baptised August 18 th 1622). 279 Patent Rolls Richard II, vol. 4, p. 180 280 Patent Rolls http://sdrc.lib.uiowa.edu/patentrolls/r2v5/body/Richard2vol5page0258.pdf 281 Patent Rolls Henry IV, vol. 1, p. 113 282 Patent Rolls Henry IV, vol. 1, p. 82 283 Patent Rolls Henry IV, vol. 2, p. 430 284 Patent Rolls http://sdrc.lib.uiowa.edu/patentrolls/h5v2/body/Henry5vol2page0328.pdf 285 Patent Rolls http://sdrc.lib.uiowa.edu/patentrolls/r2v6/body/Richard2vol6page019<strong>2.</strong>pdf 286 Records <strong>of</strong> the Borough <strong>of</strong> Northampton http://www.archive.org/stream/records<strong>of</strong>borough02nortu<strong>of</strong>t#page/556/mode/2up/search/revel 287 http://www.girders.net/index.php?dir=Ri%2F 288 Th 1689 http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/A2A/records.aspx?cat=154-th_1&cid=-1&Gsm=2008-06-18#-1 289 Th 1691 http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/A2A/records.aspx?cat=154-th_1&cid=1719&kw=rynell#1719 290 Patent Rolls p. 289 http://contentdm.lib.byu.edu/cdm/compoundobject/collection/FHMedieval/id/85406/rec/8 291 Thornton,M.J.
