King of England in 1272-1307, during a period of rising national
consciousness. He strengthened the crown and Parliament against the
old feudal nobility. He subdued Wales, destroying its autonomy; and he
sought (unsuccessfully) the conquest of Scotland. His reign is
particularly noted for administrative efficiency and legal reform. He
introduced a series of statutes that did much to strengthen the crown
in the feudal hierarchy. His definition and emendation of English
common law has earned him the name of the "English Justinian."
Early life.
Edward was the eldest son of King Henry III and Eleanor of Provence.
In 1254 he was given the duchy of Gascony, the French Ol�eron, the
Channel Islands, Ireland, Henry's lands in Wales, and the earldom of
Chester, as well as several castles. Henry negotiated Edward's
marriage with Eleanor, half sister of Alfonso X of Leon and Castile.
Edward married Eleanor at Las Huelgas in Spain (October 1254) and then
traveled to Bordeaux to organize his scattered appanage. He now had
his own household and officials, chancery and seal, with an exchequer
(treasury) at Bristol Castle; though nominally governing all his
lands, he merely enjoyed the revenues in Gascony and Ireland. He
returned to England in November 1255 and attacked Llywelyn ap
Gruffudd, prince of Gwynedd, to whom his Welsh subjects had appealed
for support when Edward attempted to introduce English administrative
units in his Welsh lands. Edward, receiving no help from either Henry
or the marcher lords, was defeated ignominiously. His arrogant
lawlessness and his close association with his greedy Poitevin uncles,
who had accompanied his mother from France, increased Edward's
unpopularity among the English. But after the Poitevins were expelled,
Edward fell under the influence of Simon de Montfort, his uncle by
marriage, with whom he made a formal pact. Montfort was the leader of
a baronial clique that was attempting to curb the misgovernment of
Henry.
Edward reluctantly accepted the Provisions of Oxford (1258), which
gave effective government to the barons at the expense of the king. On
the other hand, he intervened dramatically to support the radical
Provisions of Westminster (October 1259), which ordered the barons to
accept reforms demanded by their tenants. In the dangerous crisis
early in 1260 he supported Montfort and the extremists, though finally
he deserted Montfort and was forgiven by Henry (May 1260). He was sent
to Gascony in October 1260 but returned early in 1263. Civil war had
now broken out between Henry and the barons, who were supported by
London. Edward's violent behaviour and his quarrel with the Londoners
harmed Henry's cause. At the Battle of Lewes (May 14, 1264) his
vengeful pursuit of the Londoners early in the battle contributed to
Henry's defeat. Edward surrendered and became a hostage in Montfort's
hands. He escaped at Hereford in May 1265 and took charge of the
royalist forces, penned Montfort behind the River Severn, and, by
lightning strategy, destroyed a large relieving army at Kenilworth
(August 1). On August 4 he trapped and slew Montfort at Evesham and
rescued Henry. Shattered and enfeebled, Henry allowed Edward effective
control of government, and the latter's extreme policy of vengeance,
especially against the Londoners, revived and prolonged rebel
resistance. Finally, the papal legate Ottobuono, Edward's uncle
Richard, Earl of Cornwall, and other moderates persuaded Henry to the
milder policy of the Dictum of Kenilworth (Oct. 31, 1266), and after
some delay the rebels surrendered. Edward took the cross (1268),
intending to join the French king Louis IX on a crusade to the Holy
Land, but was delayed by lack of money until August 1270. Louis died
before Edward's arrival; and Edward, after wintering in Sicily, went
to Acre, where he stayed from May 1271 to September 1272, winning fame
by his energy and courage and narrowly escaping death by assassination
but achieving no useful results. On his way home he learned in Sicily
of Henry III's death on Nov. 16, 1272. (see also Index: Barons' War)
Accession and character.
Edward had nominated Walter Giffard, archbishop of York, Philip
Basset, Roger Mortimer, and his trusted clerk Robert Burnell to
safeguard his interests during his absence. After Henry's funeral, the
English barons all swore fealty to Edward (Nov. 20, 1272). His
succession by hereditary right and the will of his magnates was
proclaimed, and England welcomed the new reign peacefully, Burnell
taking charge of the administration with his colleagues' support. The
quiet succession demonstrated England's unity only five years after a
bitter civil war. Edward could journey homeward slowly, halting in
Paris to do homage to his cousin Philip III for his French lands (July
26, 1273), staying several months in Gascony and reaching Dover on
Aug. 2, 1274, for his coronation at Westminster on August 19. Now 35
years old, Edward had redeemed a bad start. He had been arrogant,
lawless, violent, treacherous, revengeful, and cruel; his Angevin
rages matched those of Henry II. Loving his own way and intolerant of
opposition, he had still proved susceptible to influence by
strong-minded associates. He had shown intense family affection,
loyalty to friends, courage, brilliant military capacity, and a gift
for leadership; handsome, tall, powerful, and tough, he had the
qualities men admired. He loved efficient, strong government, enjoyed
power, and had learned to admire justice, though in his own affairs it
was often the letter, not the spirit of the law that he observed.
Having mastered his anger, he had shown himself capable of patient
negotiation, generosity, and even idealism; and he preferred the
society and advice of strong counselors with good minds. As long as
Burnell and Queen Eleanor lived, the better side of Edward triumphed,
and the years until about 1294 were years of great achievement.
Thereafter, his character deteriorated for lack of domestic comfort
and independent advice. He allowed his autocratic temper full rein and
devoted his failing energies to prosecution of the wars in France and
against Scotland.
Parliament and statutes.
Shrewdly realistic, Edward understood the value of the "parliaments,"
which since 1254 had distinguished English government and which
Montfort had deliberately employed to publicize government policy and
to enlist widespread, active support by summoning representatives of
shires and boroughs to the council to decide important matters. Edward
developed this practice swiftly, not to share royal power with his
subjects but to strengthen royal authority with the support of rising
national consciousness. From 1275 to 1307 he summoned knights and
burgesses to his parliaments in varying manners. The Parliament of
1295, which included representatives of shires, boroughs, and the
lesser clergy, is usually styled the Model Parliament, but the pattern
varied from assembly to assembly, as Edward decided. By 1307,
Parliament, thus broadly constituted, had become the distinctive
feature of English politics, though its powers were still undefined
and its organization embryonic.
Edward used these parliaments and other councils to enact measures of
consolidation and reform in legal, procedural, and administrative
matters of many kinds. The great statutes promulgated between 1275 and
1290 are the glory of his reign. Conservative and definitory rather
than original, they owed much to Burnell, Edward's chancellor. With
the vast developments and reorganization of the administrative machine
that Burnell coordinated, they created a new era in English
government. The quo warranto inquiry, begun in 1275, the statutes of
Gloucester (1278) and of Quo Warranto (1290) sought with much success
to bring existing franchises under control and to prevent the
unauthorized assumption of new ones. Tenants were required to show "by
what warrant" or right they held their franchises. Edward strove,
unsuccessfully, to restore the feudal army and strengthen local
government institutions by compelling minor landowners to assume the
duties of knighthood. His land legislation, especially the clause de
donis conditionalibus in the miscellaneous Second Statute of
Westminster (1285) and the statute Quia Emptores (Third Statute of
Westminster, 1290), eventually helped to undermine feudalism, quite
contrary to his purpose. By the Statute of Mortmain (1279) the crown
gained control of the acquisition of land by ecclesiastical bodies.
The Statute of Winchester (1285) codified and strengthened the police
system for preserving public order. The Statute of Acton Burnell
(1283) and the Statute of Merchants (1285) showed practical concern
for trade and merchants. These are but the most famous of many
statutes aimed at efficiency and sound administration.
Wars.
Meanwhile, Edward destroyed the autonomous principality of Wales,
which, under Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, had expanded to include all Welsh
lordships and much territory recovered from the marcher lords.
Domestic difficulties had compelled Henry III to recognize Llywelyn's
gains by the Treaty of Shrewsbury (1267), but Edward was determined to
reduce Llywelyn and used Llywelyn's persistent evasion of his duty to
perform homage as a pretext for attack. He invaded Wales by three
coordinated advances with naval support (1277), blockaded Llywelyn in
Snowdonia, starved him into submission, and stripped him of all his
conquests since 1247. He then erected a tremendous ring of powerful
castles encircling Gwynedd and reorganized the conquered districts as
shires and hundreds. When English rule provoked rebellion, he
methodically reconquered the principality, killing both Llywelyn
(1282) and his brother David (1283). By the Statute of Wales (1284) he
completed the reorganization of the principality on English lines,
leaving the Welsh marchers unaffected. A further Welsh rising in
1294-95 was ruthlessly crushed, and Wales remained supine for more
than 100 years.
After 1294, matters deteriorated. Queen Eleanor had died in 1290,
Burnell in 1292, and Edward never thereafter found such good advisers.
The conquest and fortification of Wales had badly strained his
finances; now endless wars with Scotland and France bankrupted him. He
quarrelled bitterly with both clergy and barons, behaving as a rash
and obstinate autocrat who refused to recognize his limitations.
Philip III and Philip IV of France had both cheated him of the
contingent benefits promised by the Treaty of Paris (1259). By
constant intervention on pretext of suzerainty they had nibbled at his
Gascon borders and undermined the authority of his administration
there. After doing homage to Philip IV in 1286, Edward visited Gascony
to reorganize the administration and restore authority. On returning
to England in 1289 he had to dismiss many judges and officials for
corruption and oppression during his absence. In 1290, having
systematically stripped the Jews of their remaining wealth, he
expelled them from England. French intervention in Gascony was now
intensified; affrays between English and French sailors inflamed
feelings; and in 1293 Philip IV tricked Edward's brother Edmund, earl
of Lancaster, who was conducting negotiations, into ordering a
supposedly formal and temporary surrender of the duchy, which Philip
then refused to restore. The Welsh rising and Scottish troubles
prevented Edward from taking action, and when at last, in 1297, he
sailed to attack France from Flanders, his barons refused to invade
Gascony, and William Wallace's rising forced him to return. He made
peace with Philip (1299) and by Boniface VIII's persuasion married
Philip's sister Margaret, and eventually recovered an attenuated
Gascon duchy.
For more than 100 years relations between England and Scotland had
been amicable, and the border had been remarkably peaceful. Edward
inaugurated 250 years of bitter hatred, savage warfare, and bloody
border forays. The deaths of Alexander III of Scotland (1286) and his
granddaughter Margaret, the Maid of Norway (1290), whom Edward planned
to marry to his heir, Edward of Caernarvon (afterward Edward II),
ended the line of succession. Many dubious claimants arose, and the
Scottish magnates requested Edward's arbitration. Edward compelled the
nobles and the claimants to recognize his suzerainty, and only then
adjudged John de Balliol king (1292). Balliol did homage and was
crowned, but Edward's insistence on effective jurisdiction, as
suzerain, in Scottish cases eventually provoked the Scottish nobles to
force Balliol to repudiate Edward's claims and to ally with France
(1295). Edward invaded and conquered Scotland (1296), removing to
Westminster the coronation stone of Scone. Wallace led a revolt in
1297, and Edward, though brilliantly victorious at Falkirk (July 22,
1298), could not subdue the rebellion despite prolonged campaigning
(1298-1303).
Last years.
The strain of these years provoked heavy collisions between Edward and
his magnates. He had quarrelled violently with his archbishops of
Canterbury, John Peckham (1279-92) and Robert Winchelsey (1293-1313),
over ecclesiastical liberties and jurisdiction. In 1297 Winchelsey,
obeying Pope Boniface VIII's bull Clericis Laicos (1296), rejected
Edward's demands for taxes from the clergy, whereupon Edward outlawed
the clergy. His barons now defied his orders to invade Gascony and,
when Edward went to Flanders, compelled the regents to confirm the
charters of liberties, with important additions forbidding arbitrary
taxation (1297), thereby forcing Edward to abandon the campaign and
eventually to make peace with France. Although Pope Clement V, more
pliant than Boniface, allowed Edward to exile Winchelsey and
intimidate the clergy (1306), the barons had exacted further
concessions (1301) before reconciliation. Edward renewed the conquest
of Scotland in 1303, captured Stirling in 1304, and executed Wallace
as a traitor in 1305; but when Scotland seemed finally subjected,
Robert I the Bruce revived rebellion and was crowned in 1306. On his
way to reconquer Scotland, Edward died near Carlisle. (see also Index:

He received the degree of B.A. from St. John's, Cambridge, 1604/5;
M.A., 1608; ordained deacon and priest, Jun 1608; Canon of Lichfield,
1609; and University preacher, 1610.
He was instituted (as Rector at Odell) 12 Jan 1609/10, and compounded
9 May 1610.
The term "compounded" as used in this connection refers to the payment
of one year's salary to the Bishop. At that period, this was the
general practice , and accepted as such by most ministers of the
Church of England, though the Puritans objected to it because of its
venality.
The English Church at that period was, in the opinion of the Puritans,
too much concerned with ritual and ceremonials, and not sufficiently
concerned with the inner religious needs of the common man. In brief,
the ideal of the Puritans was to get away from formalism, to eliminate
the trimmings and trappings, to appeal to the conscience of the
individual, and to make the Bible (rather than church doctrine) the
basic guide and authority for the religious life.
For a long period after Mr. Bulkeley adopted Puritanism his superiors
were satisfied to overlook his lack of strict conformity with the
practices of the English Church. The situation changed when
Archbishop Laud came into power, for he was determined to rid the
church of non-conformist ministers.
The crisis came in 1634, when Mr. Bulkeley was suspended for
non-attendance at the visitation of Sir Natahniel Brent,
Vicar-General. Afterwards he came and confessed that he never used
the surplice or the cross in baptism, "accounting them ceremonies,
superstitions and dissentaneous to the holy Word of God." This, of
course, meant that unless he admitted his error and showed a
willingness to yield to the opinions of his ecclesiastic superiors,
sooner or later he would lose his encumbency. Feeling a call to
continue the preaching of the gospel, he decided to come to New
England where he would be secure from the persecutions of Archbishop
Laud.
Mr. Bulkeley's eldest son, Edward, came to New England in advance of
the rest of the family, perhaps bringing with him some of the family
property, and with instructions to prepare for the advent of his
relatives.
Careful preparation had to be made for the exodus of the rest of the
family from England. A non-conformist minister, if recognized, would
not have been permitted to leave the country. Furthermore, the law
required those who were leaving the country to present certificates
from a minister and Justices of the Peace of their conformity to the
orders and discipline of the Church of England, and that they were not
subsidy men. The subsidy was a special tax to which certain
individuals were liable, and the government did not wish to have its
revenue from this source reduced by the departure of men who were
liable to the tax. There were venal ministers who made a specialty of
providing non-conformists with certificates of conformity.
The difficulties encountered in obtaining transportation were
therefore not insuperable, though great precautions had to be taken,
as the government employed spies to prevent the departure of those
whose presence in England was desired. Most of the shipping lists
have not been found or preserved, but fortunately those for the year
1635 are fairly complete. It is interesting to observe that on 13 Apr
1635 the name "Jo: Backley" aged 15 was entered in this list of those
accepted for sailing on the Susan & Ellen. Five days later, "Ben:
Buckley" aged 11 and "Daniell Buckley" aged 9 were accepted as
passengers to sail on the same ship. These were undoubtedly Mr.
Bulkeley's three sons, John, Joseph and Daniel, whose ages correspond
very closely with those given. It will be noticed that no care was
taken to gice the correct spelling of the surname, and that even the
Christian name of Joseph was incorrectly entered as Benjamin. It is
to be presumed that Puritan friends or acquaintances of Mr. Bulkeley
took these boys separately to the shipping office and gave the
impression that they were members of their own household, and they may
have been garbed like apprentice boys rather than as sons of a
well-to-do clergyman.
About the time that the Bulkeley boys were accepted as passengers to
sail on the Susan & Ellen, Mr. Bulkeley, now a widower for eight
years, was married to his second wife, Grace Chetwood. Doubtless the
wedding was very quiet, since the authorities, if they learned of it,
would instruct the shipping clerks to be on the watch for Mr. Bulkeley
and his bride. To run no unnexessary risk of discovery, we find that
on 8 May 1635 "Grace Bulkley" aged 33 was entered as a passenger on
the Elizabeth & Ann, while on the following day "Peter Bulkley" aged
50 was entered as a passenger on the Susan & Ellen.
These two ships were expected to sail about the same time, but it is
not credible that Mr. Bulkeley's bride was allowed to sail alone on a
different ship. It is not difficult to guess the true story. Some
woman who was sailing on the other ship and who was not too different
from Mrs. Bulkeley in age and appearance was asked to undergo the
preliminary examination at the shipping office and to be accepted as a
passenger on the Susan & Ellen. Mrs. Bulkeley took the other woman's
place in being entered as a passenger intending to sail on the
Elizabeth & Ann. There would have been great risk of discovery if
Mrs. Bulkeley had presented herself with her husband long before their
ship sailed. By adopting this method, there was nothing to connect
Mr. Bulkeley and his wife in the eyes of the shipping clerks, and at
the last moment Mrs. Bulkeley embarked with her husband, while the
other woman embarked in the other ship as had been her intention.
By the methods described, Mr. Bulkeley, his wife and the three boys
found themselves together on the same ship. Since Edward had already
crossed to New England, this accounts for all the surviving Bulkeley
children except the son Thomas, who was then about eighteen years old.
Unless Thomas had come with Edward, it is probable that he came on
the same ship with his father; but if he did, his name was so
disguised that we cannot recognize it in the shipping list.
The Bulkeleys landed at Boston in midsummer, 1635. When the first
child of Grace was born some months later, the name of Gershom was
bestowed on him. This was not a family name on either side, but was
chosen from the Bible to commemorate the fact that the child was born
far from home; - for quite naturally England was still looked upon as
home. Gershom means 'an exile'.
