James IV., king of Scotland. In 21 Henry VII., Sir Humphrey Lisle made some grants to Lord (igleolO which may have concerned the marriage settle ments of his son Humphrey and Lord Ogle’s daughter. Owing to Henry VII. ‘s method of hardly ever assembling a parliament, he was not summoned until the first year of Henry VIII. reign, and he was also summoned in the third year of the same reign. His siame occurs in. a list of fortresses in north 2’ dated the 21st of August, 1509, which includes a list of holds and townships which were to lay in garrisons at the beginning of Henry VIII.’s reign, and his places of Ingram and Hepple were to be garrisoned with 40 and 20 men respectively. On the 10th of October, 1510, he gave his son \Villiani the manor of La Rirst near On the 3rd of January, 1512, Christopher Ward and Robert Plompton, knights released to him t lie castle of Ogle and the demesne lands which they held together with Guy Faii by a charter dated the 21st of .January, 1485.513 On the 3 of .Tune of the same year, as the right honorable the Lord Ogle and Bothal, he granted Robert, his son and heir, the whole demesne of the castle of Ogle for ten years, with remainder to Margaret, the mother of Robert. lie died in .1 anuary, 151:L and was buried in St. Andrew’s church, Bothal, under a fine tonibst.one, see page 336. His inquisitions were taken at Morpeth on the 16th of March and at Durham on the 25th of April following, where it is shown he held Botlial, Whitworth. Pigsworth, Tritlinglon, Longhirst, Ashington, also the third part of Ingrain, Little Tossan, Bikerton, Warton, all in the barony of Hepple, also Saitwick, Horsley, Stanton Sheles, lands, etc. in Morpeth, Bolsdon, Ponteland, Woodhorne, Seton, Heugh. Before his death he enfeoffed Thomas Forster of Adderstone and John Heron (probably his son-in-law and first cousin) in the manor of Ogle, lands, etc., in Whalton, Fenrother, Clayfern, Old moor, Weliclose, Flotterton, Sharperton, Shipbanks, Thirnam, Foxdene, Middleton-morell, Druridge, Newliam, Longwittou and Hurst. He gave William, his son, Twisell, the fourth part of South Dissiugton and Tossan, for life, and to his son, John, a fourth part of South Dissington, for life. In the hishopriek he held Netherton, land in Camboise, Choppington, Windle stone and West Herrington, the two last of which lie left to his son, John, for life.
Ho married Margaret, daughter of Sir WTilliam Gascoigne and Margaret, his wife, daughter of the third earl of Northumberland, whose father, Sir William Gascoigne. married Johanna, daughter and heiress of John Nevill, and Elizabeth. his wife, daughter and heiress of Robert Newmarch. An ancestor. ir \Vilhiam Gascoigne, was chief justice to Henry IV. and married Elizabeth. daughter and heiress of Alexander Mowbray. An interesting acroimt of tins Sir William is given in the lives of the chief justices by Camp bell. 1S49. On the 10th of June, 1515, Robert, Lord Ogle, granted his mother, Margaret. all lands in Hurst near Woodhorne which Ralph, Lord Ogle, his father, had of the gift of Wedell, with remainder to William, his brother;
and this Margaret, the 6th of May of the same year, had given to her beloved servant and kinswoman Isabel, wife of Gilbert Ogle, an annuity out of Thirnam. On the 6th of .July, 1516, she consented to a grant of the manor of Horton. She is mentioned in 1527 as Dame Margaret Ogele and as living in 1515 16.522 Her effigy is on Lord Ogle’s tomb at Bot.hal, on which the impaled arms show those of Gasroigne, Mowbray, Butler and Nevill, see page 337.

charter to Newminster abbey. This Robert could not have been the son. It is supposed he was father of Gilbert Ogle, whose wife, Isabel, is mentioned the 6th of May, 5 Henry VIII., as a kinswoman of Margaret, widow of Ralph, Lord Ogle. He may have died before his brother, as there was an inquisi tion taken in 1508 after the death of a Robert Ogle in Northumberland. There was however, a Robert Ogle living on the 6th of .Juiv, 7 Henry VIII., but there is reason for supposing he was Lord Ogle. (To XV. J.)
Joan, shown as Johanna, wife of Robert Clavering.
XV.—Robert, fourth Lord Ogle, of Ogle and Bothal, knight; was born in the year 1489, as he was more than twenty-three years of age when his father’s last inquisition was taken, and he must have married in the year 1508, but his name does not occur in deeds until the 3rd of June, 1511, when his father granted him the whole demesne of the castle of Ogle for ten years. In January, 1513, he succeeded his father, and on the 20th of June following, granted Margaret, his mother, lands, etc., in Hirst near Woodhorne, with re niainder to his brother William, and the 1st of July, he and his grandmother IJame Eleanor, widow, granted lands in Ainwick fields to Thomas Tood ( prior of Brinkburn. Soon after the peace with Scotland was broken Lord Home had entered on a marauding expedition with 8,000 men, but was inter cepted at Milifield on the 13th of August by Sir William Bulmer, who, having concealed his men, attacked the Scots, killing and capturing 1,100 of them with only a loss of 60; the Scot however, were able to attack Norliam on their return home. On the 23rd of August, Henry VIII. having invaded France, James IV. crossed the Tweed with 100,000 men (which number how ever, was subsequently enormously reduced) and took the castles of Norham, Wark, Etal and later Ford, and besieged Ret.on castle in vain. The earl of Surrey, who had assembled an army of some 26,000 men, was joined at Bolt on by Thomas Howard, the lord high admiral. On the 7th of September, a congress having been held, a challenge signed by these two chiefs, Lords Cliftord, Ogle, Lumley, Sir William Percy, and others was sent to the Scotch. king urging him to come off his strong position on Flodden hill and fight on Millfield plain. This being refused, the earl of Surrey promised him battle on the 9th and by a lengthy march placed himself between the Border and King .James IV., who then changed his position to Branxton hill where he was attacked and routed, losing his own life and 11,000 men. This Lord Ogle was one of t.he forty knighted by the earl of Surrey after the battle. The follow ing allusion is made to him and his arms in the ballad : — The moone that day did shine full bright, And the Luce-head that day was full bent, The Red Crescent did blinde the Scots’ sight.

the Luce belonging to the Percies and the Red Crescents to the Ogles. He was evidently afterwards employed on the Borders, for Thomas, Lord Dacre, on the 13th of ovember, 1513 in a report to King Henry VI1I., relating to Border raids and other matters, complains that Lord Ogle and others had not joined him as they had promised. On the 20th of May, 1514, he gave William Thomson of Hepscottes an annuity out of Shilvington. The next year, the 23rd of ovember, he was summoned to parliament, and this summons and one in 21 Henry VIII. were the only two he received. On the 26th of

October, 1514 he received a commission to make an inquisition post inortem, and the next year he and Sir Edward Musgrave received comnhissions for the peace.° It is he who is probably meant in a deed dated the 6th of July, 1515, when Sir William Gascoigne, Robert Ogle, and William Ogle, esquires, Robert Wenslow, Thomas Forster and John Heron of Chipchase, esquires, with the consent of Dame Margaret, Lady Ogle, leased to Thomas Lisle the manor of Horton, and the same year, with his wife and Lady Musgrave, he met at Morpeth the queen of Scotland, widow of James f\., who had proceeded from Harbottle to Sir Edward Radcliffe’s place Cartington and by Brinkburn on wards to Morpeth, and the next year he attended this queen whilst in England.° However this year he comniitted some misdenieanour for which he was charged before the Star Chamber; the king’s letter comprises the follow ing remark, ‘Sir, your matter concerneth murder of our subjects, which great offence is not only to us but to God, and therefore we rensit you to the common law,’ but there is no record of his having suffered in any way. He was captain of the castle of orhani, being a witness as such on the 4th of July, 1516, with William Heron of Ford, William Lisle, John Heron of Chip- chase, Gawen and John Ogle, etc., when Cuthbert Ogle, rector of Ford, and others granted Thomas Strother the manor of Kirkuewton. In 1517, he was appointed escheat.or in Xorhamshire and Islandshire, but he was superseded in 1O19. On the 8th of January, 1517, he demised a tenement in 2 to Agnes Ogle, a widow, for a yearly payment of £4 13s. 4d. There occurs a deed dated the 1st of March, 8 Henry VIII., 1517, but it should have been dated 18 Henry VIII., as this date coincides with the marriage of his son and with the (late of his grandson’s birth, in 1528, the year after. In 1518, he is mentioned as having claim to land in Lancashire, which no doubt came info the family through the Kirkbys. He was captain of Norham when on the 17th of January, 1518, at Norham he made an indenture with Edward Grey of Chillingharn, esq., by which each bound the other concerning lands entailed or by descent, the former binding himself to allow the lands which lately were Sir Ralph Grey’s to descend to their heirs male of the said Edward Grey and for default of such issue to the said Robert, Lord Ogle, and his heirs according to the entail made for Thomas Grey of Heton, knight, and Margaret, daughter of Williaiii Pressfen. About this time there was an expeditwni into Scotland, for in the year 1519, Lord Ogle received a reward of £13 6s. 8d. for ‘ ca4ing down ‘ Blakatur, Cessford and other fortresses in that country. Rodgson gives the year as 1520 and makes him have a double grant of this sum, the latter of which was for himself and ‘his retinue’ for their good diligence in ‘casting down’ Cessford and other places. Tn 1522, in another exp P. Dacre, Sir William Percy, Lord Ogle and 2,000 men from Berwick, in a skirmish, killed Lance Carr and forty other persons, losing them selves one man. On the 18th of June, of the same year, he gave to William Gallond of Trewhit an annual rent of forty shillings with the tower in Great Tossan for life, and on the 7th of August following he gave to William and John Ogle, esquires, the manors and castles of Great Tossan, Hepple and Lorbottle to hold until they had received £100, Thomas Ogle being appointed attorney. He was at Wark on the 3rd of October, 1522, when he wrote to the earl of Surrey about Albany’s movements. Lord Ogle and parson ICuthbert] Ogle were at Bolton in 1523 before the Scots attacked Wark and
Norham: Lord Dacre had prepared to burn Kelso, Kelso abbey, Sindlawes, Ormyston, X and Lord Ogle and Sir Cuthbert Ogle, parson of Ford, were ordered to join. On the 15th of April, the marquis of Dorset wrote from Ainwick giving the list of gentlemen who went with Lord Dacre into

Teviotdale, burning villages and returning with 4,000 head of cattle which list included Lord Ogle with all his name and friends. Lord Ogle received the king’s thanks for the last raid, and the earl of Surrey sent him to Wark with 100 men and he kept Surrey informed as to the Scotch movements. Some time this year the Scotch besieged Wark, during which the earl of Surrey was at Alnwick with a great army, where he was joined by the earls of Northumberland and Westmoreland, Lord Ogle and others, and by his advance caused the Scotch to abandon the siege who had barely crossed the Tweed when the advanced guard of the English appeared on the scene. The earl of Surrey is mentioned as commanding in the war when a raid was made. into Teviotdale, burning Teclburgh, and reducing the abbey to ruins,Wark castle being also besieged. On the 0th of October, Lord Ogle wrote to the earl of Surrey about intelligence he had received from the prioress of Eccies and others about Albany s arrival in Scotland and his preparations. On the 7th of October, the garrison of Wark was the Lord Ogle, captain, with Sir William Lisle as his deputy, John Ogle, brother to Lord Ogle, W. Lisle, T. Lisle. Thomas Ogle, George Ogle, John Ogle, Williani Ogle, Richard Ogle, etc., the sum being 101) spearmen and gunners and 14 archers and 12 others, the number of all the soldiers of the retinue of Lord Ogle being one hundred and thirteen. The names of the persons who went into Scotland at- the last raid to Gedworthe with Robert- and Richard Bowes included Lord Ogle, John Ogle his brother, with 131 spears, archers, gunners and mariners. In 1.523 a peace with the Scotch was concluded for three years, which was later renewed for five years. On the 20th of January of that year he gave to John Ogle of Ogle castle for faithful services all his land in Ogle, under certain tenures, of the yearly value of £6, and also gave him the office of constable of Ogle castle. In 1526, he was one of those gentlemen to whom the king’s patent of annuities had been given and he was certified to be able to dispend in the king’s service £100 a year from the lands in possession and £100 from lands in reversion with his name was linked Sir William Ogle, John Ogle of Kirkley, George Ogle of Ogle castle, described as a younger brother without lands, John Ogle of Ogle castle, ‘ whyche mene be well myendyd to justice and maye serve the kynge whyth themsellse and friends the number oft VI or VII horssmen.’ In the same year T. Magnus wrote to Cardinal Wolsey about. a meeting, in which he mentioned the earls of Westmoreiand and Cumberland, Lord Ogle, Sir William Heron, Sir William Eure. On the 10th of May of that year he released to Sir William Ogle of Cockle Park. the manor and park of Cawsey park and the enclosures called the Southfield and Baronsfield 562 this release was evidently not absolute, for the next Lord Ogle dealt with the property in 1537. On the 23rd of August, 1520. he for faithful service granted to Edward Gallone, esq., all his lands in Sharperton under certain tenures, also an annuity out of Hepple, together with Sliipbanks and another annuity out of ‘Fawsyd’in Sharperton. On the 12th of .January, 1527, he demised to John Ogle of Ogle castle and .John’s son, Lancelot, a-li his lands, etc., in Saitwick for forty-one years for a rent of £5 : 564 two days afterwards he gave the former the manor and castle of Ogle for forty-one years at a rent of £14 a year. On the 1st of March, 1.527, by a deed which is misdafed by ten years, he made .Tohn Widdrington, .John Ogle of Hurst, ,Tohn Mit.ford of Seghill, trustees for iN Middleton (or Middleton-morell), Fenrother and Shilvington, for the use of Robert, his son and heir, and Dorothy, daughter of Sir Henry Widdrington, deceased. On the 12th of June, he made an indenture with Cuthbert Ogle, clerk, concerning the manor of Ingram, Huntlaw and Green- shields, and the advowson of the church there : 567 these places were afterwards

Eight days afterwards he granted to the same Cuthbert all his lands and tenements in Fowberry in exchange for lands in Oldmoor, 2 ewmoor, Longhirst and Earsdou, and one of the two attorneys appointed to deliver possession was William Ogle of Causey (?) park.°° On the 16th of July, he gave a Deed Poll to Sir Thomas Forster, Lionel &rey, Robert Ogle, clerk, and Matthew Forster, relating to the manor of Ingrain and t.he advowson of the church. In 1528, there is an account of payment to the gentlemen of Northumberland in fee with the warden, which includes this Lord Ogle, Sir William Ogle, Cutlibert Ogle of Choppington, and John Ogle of Ogle castle. 0 He made a presentation of the church at Bothal on the :31st of July, 152S, and the 14th of September following, made a covenant with Sir Edward Radclifie that he would before Christmas make a grant of Flotterton to him and to Margaret Ogle, and in the same month granted to my father-in-law Sir Edward Radc1i of Cartington, knight, and to my well-beloved kinswoman, Margaret Ogle,’ the town of Flotterton; how Sir Edward was his father-in-law is not obvious. On the 10th of Decem ber of the year he demised to John Ogle of Iiirkley the town of Twisell for the term of thirty-one years for the annual payment of On the 4th of March, 1.529, by reason of the aftection which he bears towards his dearly beloved kinsman John Ogle, son of Gilbert Ogle,’ he gave to George Ogle of Bothal, Oswin Ogle, gentlemen, etc., all his lands and tenements in Oldmoor near Longhirst for the use of the above named John Ogle, and on the 26th of June he granted to Thomas Clarke an annuity out of Pegsworth. In 1.530, he sold Fallowless, consisting of 1,24(3 acres, to John Hall of Otterburn, and on the 5th of March of the same year, he gave to George Ogle for good and faithful service his water mill of Bothal, and on the 4t.h of April, gave to William, his brother, and to his wife, Margery, and to Robert, William’s natural son, all his lands in Hebburn, and on the 26th of April, granted [ lease of?] Shilvington to Robert Ogle, and gave in trust to Sir Ralph Fenwici, Anthony Fenwick, Thomas Fenwick of Little Harle, and Roger Heron of Meldon. all his lands in Shllvington and Whalton under certain tenures for the use of the wife of John Ogle. On the 22nd of June, he sold to Sir William Ogle, 30 acres in Horsley, and on the 28th of September, granted William Ogle, formerly of Cockle Park, knight, his brother, and to James, son of William, lands and tenements in Earsdon and Earsdon Forest for their lives paying a rent of £3 a year.m In 1.5:31, he is mentioned as a commissioner for the peace. On the 15th of January, 1532, the warden had proclaimed a warden court to redress f lie enormities in Redesdale and Tynedale, but Sir Thomas Percy interfered, requesting authority of the king, upon which this Lord Ogle, or his son (?), .Tohn Widdrington, and Sir Roger Grey, wrote on the matter to the earl of Northumberland. He died at the end of 1531 or early in 1.5.32, for on the 26th of January, of the latter year, Sir Thomas Hilton and others received a commission to make an inquisition post mortem on the lands and heir of ‘Sir Robert Ogle. Lord Bottell and Ogle,’ and in July follow ing a similar commission was issued.
He married Anne, daughter of Sir Thomas Lumley, son and heir of George, Lord Lumley, 20 Edward TV. a knight banneret.

Ralph appears the first who was called Lord Lumley, and John, his son, and George above, a grandson. Anne, married, secondly, George Ogle, sometime of Ogle castle, who was mentioned about the year 1536, as living with the then Lord Ogle, his wife’s son, and as being a sharp forward man. Before this, in 1526, he was mentioned as of Ogle castle and a younger brot.her without lands, and was often named as one of those receiving pay or pension as one of the gentlemen of the Marches.” On the 24th of May, 153T, Robert, fifth Lord Ogle, George Ogle of Bothal, gentjenian, and Lady Anne Ogle, his wife, late wife of Lord Ogle, gave to George Lumley an annuity out of Shulvington. There is reason for supposing that this George was also of Hirst. Anne had for her dower lands, etc., in Earsdon, Cockle Park, Hebburn, Fenrother, Salt wick, Tritliugton, Seaton and Ogle with the castle. (To XVI.)
Oswin Ogle, second son of Ralph, Lord Ogle.” A letter with reference to a pedigree of the Ogles of Kirkley, dated Heralds College, .1 anuary 5th, 1850,’ calls Owen one of the sons, but it is clear that Sir Wnihliani Ogle was third son and is mentioned on the tombstone of Janies Ogle of Causey park as second son,’° so that this Oswin must have died without issue.

George Ogle of Hirst was mentioned as a younger brother without lands in 1526, but was then living at Ogle castle. He married Anne, daughter of Sir Thomas Lumley and widow of Lord Ogle. (See the Ogles of H page 160.)
Anne niarried, first, Sir Humphrey Lisle, secondly, Sir John Delaval,’° but The Harleian Society, vol. xvi., has Agnes as her name, stating that a note
•in Sir John Delaval’s will, 1562, informs us that it was her son Sir John who married Ralph, Lord Ogle; and he made his will in 1o72.
Dorothy married, first, Sir Thomas Forster, marshall of the town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, who was buried at Bamburgh, his will being dated the 4th of March, 1526, Sir Cuthbert Ogle, parson, of Ford, being a witness there to. Secondly, Sir Thomas Grey of Horton, son of Sir Roger Grey of Horton, by ‘whom ten daughters and co-heiresses, one of whom married Lancelot Ogle of Ogle castle, another, Isabel, married Sir Ralph Grey of Chillingham, which Isabel, as a widow, lived afterwards at Ogle castle and made her will in 1581,605 having had Thomas Ogle as her second husband.

Z.—John Ogle of Hurst was a trustee for Lord Ogle 1st March, 1527.609
XVI.—Robert, fifth Lord Ogle, of Ogle and Bothal, knight, is first men tioned on the 1st of March, 1527, when his father gave to John Widdrington, John Ogle of Hirst, and John Mitford of Seghill, North Middleton, Fenrother, and Shalvrngton., for the use of Robert Ogle, his son and heir, and Dorothy, daughter of Sir henry Widdrington, deceased, Robert Ellekar and Robert Fenwick being the attornies to deliver possession. On his father’s death in 1o32, he succeeded to the title and estates, the latter he dealt with in 1535,611 although there. is no mention of his having livery of his lands until the year l; In 1o32, the Scots burnt Fowberry tower in a retaliatory raid. In April, 1o33, the tu brothers of the earl of Northumberland, John Ogle, Sir John Widdrington and others invaded Scotland, passing over Coquet Vale to ‘Howe-ham’ (Hounam) and burnt all the towns near the ‘Water of Caille’ (kale river). On the 21st of September, 1535, he granted Cuthbert Horsley an annuity out of the barony of Hepple, and on the 20th of November follow ing, he granted to Robert, natural son of Sir William Ogle, a lease of lands, etc., in Hebburn for eighty years.OiO In a return made out about this time he is described as the Lord Ogle of Bothal and may dispend 300 marks in possession and reversion, he may serve the king with 100 horsemen, he is a true young man and a good housekeeper’ in the same return ‘George Ogle bath married the Lord Ogle’s mother and is both in house with the said Lord Ogle;’ also -the names John Ogle of Ogle castle, John Ogle of Kirkley, and Sir William Ogle who is described as the Lord Ogle’s uncle. In 1536, John Ogle gave up Oldmore which he had by the grant of Robert Ogle, deceased, father of this Lord Ogle. On the 22nd of April, 1536, he granted to George
-Ogle, Newhall, near Harbottle, Hirst, Newintone, Gallowclose, Gallowfleld, Newclose, and Wheit Northrnore. In 1536 the rising in the North known as the ‘Pilgrimage of Grace’to re-establish the old religion, broke out. The earl of Northumberland had appointed Lord Ogle vice warden of the Marches, and Sir Thomas Percy. who joined the rising, tried by proclamation to get the office, he and Sir Ingram Percy hindered the Warden Court at Morpeth held by Lord Ogle as vice warden, stopping the letters to Lord Ogle and others, and Sir Thomas and Sir Ingram Percy on the 17th of January, 1537, caused a cry to he made at Morpeth promising redress of grievances, upon which Sir John Widdrington and Lord Ogle caused a proclamation to be made forbidding more than two persons of any town t-o meet together, and wrote to the two Percys about their misdoings. Humphrey Ogle, dean of Hereford, appears to have sided with the rebels. In this rising King Henry’s minister, Crom well, promised reforms through Norfolk, but the- next year, 1537, he- disgrace fully throw aside his promises and executed many of the leaders, amongst whoni was Sir Thomas Percy who was hung at Tyburn. Cromwell a few years later su for his misdoings, being himself executed.

been a widower for a few years, but on the 8th of July, 153T, he c.ovenanted to wed Jane, eldest daughter of Sir Cuthbert Radcliffe of Dilston, before the Assumption of Our Lady next, and on the 6th of Odtober following gave the manor of Causey park, forty acres of land in Earsdon and Horsle.y called the [ and Baronsfield and common of pasture with appurtenances in Tritlington and Earsdon to Sir William Ogle, who was to pay £200, and also 40 shillings a year. In March, 1538, he, Sir William Ogle, and Cut.hbert Ogle, clerk, received commissions for the peace, and on the 1 of September, Sir Reynold Carnaby sent in a list of the warden and pensioners on the Middle and East Marches, which included Lord Ogle, the captain of Berwick, Sir William Ogle, John Ogle of Ogle, John Ogle of Twisell, and George Ogle and Sir Reynold informed the Council of the North of the names of those appointed to meet at midnight on the 13th of September of the same year for an expedi tion into Tynedale, which included the king’s deputy warden with twenty men, Lord Ogle with twenty men. Sir William Ogle with ten men, parson Ogle with ten men, John Ogle of Ogle with ten men, John Ogle of Twisle with twent men. In 1539, three years after t lie dissolution of the lesser monasteries, the greater monasteries were dissolved and their revenues seized by the crown. In February, 1540, Sir Robert Ogle, Lord Ogle of Bothal, received livery of his lands as son and heir of Roheit. Lord Ogle deceased, but he had had charge of his lands before this. lIe was never summoned to Parliament, as Henry VIII., with his ministers \Volsey and Cromwell, used autocratic power for all they did. On the 0th of April of the same year, his name occurs in State Papers as a pensioner on the Marches, Sir \Villiam and .John Ogle of Kirkiev and others, occurrine’ in the lists
and on the. 20th of November following, with the consent of Sir William Ogle of Cockle Park, the tenant for life, lie gave Tritlington for life to J olin and Matthew, sons of Williani. On the tli of June, 1541. he gave Lewis Ogle an annuity of £3 out of Earsdon. On the 24th of August, 1542. Lord Angus, Sir Robert Bowes, Sir Cuthbert Ratcliffe, Lord Ogle with 3,000 men having burnt in Tevidaill ‘ (Teviotdale’ Maxwell Heugh, Hetone of the hull (Heiton Syndelaw (Sunlaws), Grvmslev (Graliainslaw) were attacked by the Scots under the earl of Huntley at Hadden Rig, who, by the timely arrival of Lord Home with 400 lances, defeated the English, who fled losing four or five hundred prisoners, including Sir Robert Bowes, Sir Cuthbert Radcliffe. and parson Ogle, but. the loss was not sufficient to prevent the duke of Norfolk. after wards burning Kelso and Kelso abbey. On the 15th of September, 1542, lie gave ortli Middleton in trust to Oswin Ogle his brother, George Ogle of first, Cuthbert Horslev of Horslev, and Anthony IValce for the use of his son, Cuthbert. Ogle, and by another charter gave to the same trustees Lorbottle for the use of his son Thomas Ogle. On the 25th of November, the Scotch were routed at the battle of Solway Moss. On the 19th of the next. month the Scotch contemplated a raid, which was put oft on account of the death of the king of Sects: Lord Ogle being mentioned in connection with these arrange inents.° On the 5th of May, 1543, being ‘ commaunded to invavd the realme of Scotland in the Kynges Majesties warres if caice that I he slayne be ehaunce of warres thus I niaik my laste wvll and testamente,’ whither he went, but he lived to return froni the expedition, which was probably with Sir Ralph Eure when .Jedburgh, Kelso, and 192 towns, towers, etc., were destroyed, 400 Scots slain, 816 prisoners, etc., taken and he was hack again on the 4th of April, 1544, when he granted to the same trustees as above lands, etc., in Earsdon, Cockle Park, Hebburn, Fenrother, Saitwick, Tritlington.

but not long after he was again across the Border with Sir Ralph Eure and Sir J ohn Widdrington, when, with the garrison of the Middle and some of that of the East Marches, in all 2,300 men, they burnt Old Roxburgh, New Rox burgh, New Town, Stokes, Strother, Hutton-on-the-Hill, and rode a foray to Makerston and Rotherford taking 320 nott (sic), 200 sheep, 60 nags, 12 horse men, 20 foot prisoners, besides those slain. In July, Duns and Greenlaw were also burnt. It was probably about the same time (i.e., in. the spring) that the earl of Hereford and John Dudley landed at Leith and burnt Edinburgh. There is no notice of his having returned to his own country, for in 1545 the wasting war carried on by Henry VIII. produced a union of Scotland against him, and the earl of Angus, who was on the English side at the battle of Hadden Rig, appears now on the Scotch side with. a strong force encamped at Pannier hugh [ while the English, under Sir Ralph Eure, Lord Ogle, Sir Brian Laton, were at Aucrum moor near Jedburgh. It seems probable that there had been skirmishes both at Bromhouse and at Moorhouse, as these places have been mentioned as the name of the battle, but at the battle. at Anerum moor or Peniel-heugh on the 6th of March, after a severe conflict, the English were defeated and the leaders, including Lord Ogle, were killed. Lord Ogle is mentioned by his brother Oswiii as being killed at Paniir Heugh,’ and the skirmish at Moorhouse took place on the 27th of February, preceding. Cuthbert Ogle, clerk, was taken prisoner at Ancrum moor anti identified the body of Sir Ralph Eure, and the earl of Arran is mentioned as embracing the earl of Angus on. the battle field. Lord Ogles body was taken into his own county and buried at Bothal in St. Andrew’s church. His, inquisition was taken on the 30th of May, 1546, at Alnwick, where his lands are fully set forth and will be found in the appendix: Robert, his son and heir, was then aged eighteen years.
He married, first, Dorothy, daughter of Sir Henry Widdringtou, who was dead on the 1st of March, 1527 when the marriage settlements were drawn up, by whom he had Robert and Margery, and Dorothy (‘?). She was buried iii the church of Bothal. (To XXII.)
Secondly, to Jane, eldest daughter of Sir Cuthbert Radcliffe of Dilston, vhoni her husband . covenanted to marry before the Assumption of Our Lady next, dated the 8th of July, 153 Anne, daughter and heir of John Cartiugton, married Sir Edward Radcliffe of Derwentwa.ter. whose son was

Sir Edward Radcliffe of Cartiugton appears also to have married a Margaret Ogle, or had a daughter of that name.° Jane had for her dower lands, etc., in Earsdon, Earsdon Forest., Cockle Park and Tower, Hebburn, Fenrother, Saitwick. Tritlington, Seat.on near Woodhorne, Ogle and Ogle castle, which had been. also the (lower of Anne, Lady Ogle. Jane married afterwards Sir John Forster who was knighted in 1547, and was for 29 years lord warden of the Middle Marches; 648 they were both living on the 14th of June, 1.564. rfhis Sir John was son of Sir Thomas Forster by Dorothy, daughter of Ralph, Lord Ogle.

Thomas Ogle, this Oswin’s nephew. Robert, Lord Ogle, by will of the 5th. of May, 1543, bequeathed to his brother Oswin all his lands and tenements in Twisell and the stone house there for life. Also the same lord on the 4th of April, 1o44, appointed him and others trustees of the lands, the dower of Jane, Lady Ogle, see above. He was at the battle of Peniel or Anerum moor on the 6th of March, 1545 and taken prisoner. On the 2Tth of July, 1562, Robert, Lord Ogle, by will gave his uncle Oswin the ilydding’ to occupy the same until he entered into Twisell, and also gave him the tithes of Ashington, but on the 20th of October, 1564, he was in possession of Twisel worth £10 per annum. In 1583, he was living at Shilviugton, when Cuthbert, Lord Ogle, having no heirs male, asked of the Crown, permission to destroy the male entail of the property and to confer his estates on Jane, his daughter and her future husband, Edward Talbot, son of the earl of Shrewsbury, upon which Oswin wrote the following letter:
To the Queen’s most excellent Mt
In most humble wise shewinge complavneth to y most excellent \ yo” Highness faithful subject Oswin Ogle of Shulvington in the county of Northumberland Esquire. That whereas the house of the Lord Ogle beinge of greate antiquitye hath for many yeares done true service to y MtY and yo progenitors since and before the memory of man as sondry of yo Highuies Council can testifie. It is so that the L. Cutbert Ogle now livinge and havinge no heyres male goeth aboute to cutt of .VOr poor suppliante and his children from the benefitt of that whereby he is nowe Lord Ogle for he the saide L. Cutbert continued the entaile which was like to be cutt of and yet wold he nowe do the like to your said supphiante and his children being the next of blude in the entaile. Wherfore, for that the cheife howse is iii daunger of utter ruine which hath always doone y Mty y progenitors special service against the Scots who slew y said suppliant.s brother and kook hun. prisoner at Pamer-Heugh; flies are most humbly to beseech yor niost gratious M to consider this case to maintaine the entaile in the heyres male and to will y right honourable Counsaile to take oider herein. Then shall your Mty do a thinge to God cceptahle yo” poore Orator and all the name of the Ogles shall be bound in double duty to yo’ Highnes and great quietness may herby be mayntained w otherwise would in time growe to great grudge and diseention. y Jtie poore and daily, Suppliante Oswin Ogle.”
This letter had no effect for on the 2nd of September, 1583, Cuthbert, Lord Ogle, had a licence to alienate his property to Edward Talbot and .1 ane the said Cuthbert’s daughter.
He married Jane, daughter of John Horsley of Milburne Grange.° (To XVII. I.)
Agnes.
Dorothy occurs as a daughter of the fourth Lord Ogle, by Glover’s pedigree, Herald’s College, and married to Sir Thomas Grey of Horton, but there is an insertion changing the name of the Lord Ogle from Robert to Ralph, who was third lord. It has also been said that she married Sir Thomas Forster. She probably belongs to the previous generation and certainly could not have married Sir Thomas Forster.
.T.—George Ogle, eldest son, was probably a trustee for Oldmore and is mentioned in the will of Bell Ogle in 1539.662 Some of his history may have been wrongly appropriated to the George in the previous generation.
