Michael Drayton

>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Michael Drayton (1563 - December 23, 1631)

was an English poet who came to prominence in the Elizabethan era.

[edit] Early life

He was born at Hartshill, near Atherstone, Warwickshire.

Even in childhood he showed some poetic ambition. At the age of ten he
found a position as a pageboy, and a little later he is thought to have
studied at the University of Oxford.

Sir Henry Goodere of Powlesworth became his patron, and introduced him
to the Countess of Bedford. Drayton fell in love with Goodere's
daughter, and this may have inspired some of his love poetry.

For several years Drayton was esquire to Sir Walter Aston. Nothing else
is known about his youth

................................

In 1597 appeared England's Heroical Epistles, a series of historical
studies, in imitation of those of Ovid.

These last poems, written in the heroic couplet, contain some of the
finest passages in Drayton's writings.

By 1597, the poet was resting on his laurels. It seems that he was much
favoured at the court of Elizabeth

Friendships

Drayton was a friend of some of the most famous men of the age.

He corresponded familiarly with Drummond; Ben Jonson, William Browne,
George Wither and others were among his friends.

There is a tradition that he was a friend of Shakespeare, supported by
a statement of John Ward, once vicar of Stratford-on-Avon, that
"Shakespear, Drayton and Ben Jonson had a merry meeting, and it seems,
drank too hard, for Shakespear died of a feavour there contracted."

In one of his poems, an elegy or epistle to Mr Henry Reynolds, he has
left some valuable criticisms on poets whom he had known.

That he was a restless and discontented, as well as a worthy, man may
be gathered from his own admissions.

Coat of Arms

Early English History & The Drayton Family Origins

1066 - 1650

The Drayton Family,

of Norman Aristocracy,

made its debut in English history when Aubrey de Vere, later Great
Chamberlin to King Henry I, landed in England with William the
conqueror.

For his distinguished service against the Saxons in the Battle of
Hastings, he was awarded an ancient Saxon Stronghold in Northampton,
which is still known and admired as Drayton House.

Since 1066, Drayton House has been the residence of descendants of
Aubrey de Vere, including Earls of Oxford, Lords Mordaunt, Earls of
Peterborough, Dukes of Dorset, Earls of Wiltshire, and finally, Lord
Sackville.

In the early 13th century, Sir Walter de Vere dropped the family name
of "de Vere" and assumed the Saxon name of his castle,
"Drayton".

Over the past 900 years, members of the Drayton family spread from
Drayton House throughout England.

Though related to the privileged Draytons who helped form today's
Europe, the father and son who eventually came to Magnolia were simple
people seeking a better start in the New World.

___________________________________________

I think there is a mistake here, as there are

two "Phillipppa de Arderne"s, it seems,

and the one married in 1309 is the daughter of

ROBERT de Arderne -

____________________

anyway, it is a marriage of

the Drayton/de Veres

with an Arden,

as that is the same name as Arderne.

Birth Abt 1258

Father Robert de Arderne, b. Abt 1290, Of
Drayton,Oxfordshire,England

Mother Nichola Bardolfe, b. Abt 1294

Family John de Drayton, b. 1254, of Drayton

Children

> 1. Katherine de Drayton, b. Abt 1314, of Broughton, Dorset,
England

> 2. Simon de Drayton, b. Abt 1284


Notes

o M E Sorley: The Sorley Pedigrees p 37

The Visitation of Warwickshire P. 179 (See also footnote)

Their seems to be some confusion as to phillipa's parents

The Sorley pedigrees indicates Robert de
Arderne of Preston as her father (no mother listed).

Baker: History of Northamptonshire states
that Robert de Arden (presumed brother of Thomas Arden of
Hanwell) granted to John son of Sir
Baldwin Drayton, in free marriage with Phillippa his
daughter, all his land in Wappenham which
had descended to him from Alice his mother (Alice de
Beauchamp).

The Robert of Preston has been
Linked with Robertus Arden de Drayton who married Nichola
Bardolfe whose pedigree continues
back on a different line than that shown in The Sorley
Pedigrees.

Is the Arderne family the same as the Arden family?

___________________________________________

Here is some confirmation of this -

(quote, excerpts)

.................................

1.

ARDERN (includes

___________

Arderne,

de Arderne,

Arden,

___________

Arthern, Arthan, Arderen, Ardren, Hardern, Hordern)

http://www.rootsweb.com/~jfuller/gen_mail_surnames-ar.html

..........................................................................................................................................

2.
Although the two volumes are described usually as containing the
histories of only twelve families, many of these families are related
groups of families. Thus the Arden lineage includes the Eardene,
Arderne and Compton branches

http://www.baronage.co.uk/2006b/DrummondBNF.html

......................................................................................................................................................

while looking for the above, I discovered this -

.................................................................

(quote, excerpts)

There had been an exchange in one of the Compuserve fora on this aspect
of Shakespeare's life, begun by a post that claimed ~

>> Shakespeare never made it, probably never expected to make it, to a rank as high as even the minor nobility. He attained the rank (after years of effort) of "gentleman." <<

....... and brought this reply ~

(quote)

>> Young Will did expect to make it, growing up in expectation of his recognition as a gentleman. The facts, briefly, are these:

Arms are the "ensigns of nobility" and, in Shakespeare's day, as during
the preceding centuries, the specific rank of gentleman (i.e. excluding
the generic use of the term) was the lowest rank in the nobility. (The
association of the term "nobility" as exclusively belonging to the
peerage is comparatively recent and almost wholly anglocentric.) A
patent of nobility is uncommon in the British Isles. We used to issue
them in Scotland to nobles about to travel abroad, to ensure they be
"received and treated in all places and among all nobles as nobles in
the noblesse of Scotland" (a clause still used in a Scottish grant of
arms), but it is a practice more usual in continental Europe. In the
British Isles then, as in Scotland still, the grant of arms was itself
the grantee's patent of nobility.

Which brings us to the critical point.

Will's father, John Shakespeare, was a merchant who was appointed a
Justice of the Peace and, in 1568, the Bailiff of Stratford-upon-Avon.
At that time he had preliminary discussions with Clarenceux King of
Arms, Robert Cook, on the preliminary sketches for a grant of arms, and
in 1596 the grant was made. The long wait is usually ascribed to some
financial difficulties, for a grant was then finalised only after very
substantial fees had been paid. So Will, from the age of four, grew up
knowing that his father had in principle been recognised as of a rank
equivalent to that of his (Will's) maternal grandfather, Robert Arden
of Wilmcote. Thus in 1596, when his father's fortunes had turned and
when Will himself was prosperous, he could account himself as having
been born a gentleman, born an English nobleman.

In 1586 Sir John Ferne, in "The Glorie of Generositie", states
specifically that Bailiffs of "ancient boroughs and incorporated towns"
held "offices of dignity and worship" meriting a grant of arms - so in
this Tudor period of phrenetic social climbing it would have been
impossible for Will to be other than very conscious of his impending
noble status. Moreover, for the scrambling social climbers the
difference between acquiring gentility by a grant of arms and being
born gentle was immense. Further divisions were attempted later by an
insistence that although a grant of arms made its grantee armigerous,
"three generations of coat armour" were required to make a gentleman.
This and similar distinctions were incorporated into the requirements
for certain orders of chivalry and various societies, but in law the
definition remained simple "Why, if he hath no arms, then he is no
gentleman" - and if he has, he is, and Will's father was.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

(quote, excerpts)

So ~ John Shakespeare was a gentleman of coat armour. William was born
a gentleman and, as a gentleman, belonged to the lowest rank of the
English nobility (classified as nobiles minores). The books you quote
are of little value in these matters. It is necessary to return to
original sources.

A contemporary of Shakespeare, Camden, who was Clarenceux King of Arms
when he died in 1623, always used "noble" for the recipient in the
letters patent he granted. Moreover, and I stress that he was of
Shakespeare's time, in his "Britannia" (dedicated to William Cecil, the
equivalent then of a twentieth century Prime Minister) he wrote -

"nobiles minores sunt equites aurati, armigeri et qui vulgo generosi,
et gentle men vocantur"

which I think I can fairly translate as

"the lesser nobility are knights, esquires and those commonly called
generosi or gentlemen."

___________________________________

(quote, excerpt)

We thought this correspondence worth quoting extensively for two
reasons. The first, obviously, is that the change of meanings of words
down the centuries is often unrecognised, and that when changed
meanings are not identified there is confusion. Here the confusion
caused the correspondent to believe that Shakespeare applied the
twentieth-century understanding of nobility to his own time. The second
is that Shakespeare's position in society is misunderstood by many of
his readers and has helped to foster much of the doubt sometimes
expressed about the true authorship of his plays.
