Also of the Manor of Combehall alias West Clifford in the p’sh of Drewsteignton, which had belonged to John Carewe de Haccombe, Ar, who by his will 20 Ap. 21 Jas. I devised it to John Hore and to Thos. Gregory of Plympton Maire, gent, in trust, to certain uses, with remainder to Thos, Carewe his son and heir, which Thomas by deed dated 9 Sept. 3 Car. I gave (“dedit”) the s’d manor of Combehall to the s’d John Hore. One Robert Vilvayne Ar. of the city of Exeter, M.D. is referred to in connexion with this manor, tempore Jas. I.

A deed of settlement is cited, dated 5 Oct. 2 Car I, between the s’d John Hore, Sen. of Chagford, gen. of the one part, and one Francis Whiddon, clerk, rector of Moreton Hampstead, James Knapman of (Derostling?) gen. and John Hore, Junior, son of William Hore of Sprayton, of the other part; in favour as I understand it, of Margaret the wife of J.

Lastly the Jurors say that John Hore, Sr. died 29 June, without lawful issue, and that William Hore is his brother and next heir, and is aged 50, and that Margaret the widow of the s'd J. H. is living at Chagford.

Hore’s Gift. Thomas Hore, by his will, bearing date 14th May, 1746, gave to the poor persons of the parish of Spreyton, a yearly rent-charge of twenty shillings, for ever, to be payable out of his messuage and tenement, called West Bigbear, situate in Spreyton, to the vicar, churchwardens and overseers of the poor there, for the time being, and by them to be distributed on every Christmas-day, to such poor persons as had no weekly relief.

            This annuity of 20s, although given by will, after the passing of the Mortmain Act, 9 Geo. 2d, is still paid out of the estate called, Little Bigbear, of which Mr. Thomas Cobley is the present owner, and is distributed at the annual meeting of parishioners, holden about Lady-day for passing the parish accounts, together with the rest of one fourth-part of Brush tenement, hereinafter mentioned, among such of the poor of the parish as do not receive constant relief, in sums varying from 9d. to 2s. according to their respective necessities.”

MS 145/EN 1/1/2 Letter from Charles HORE to [Charles?] BAWDES

Acknowledges receipt of a letter in which Bawdes says that he is surprised that Hore should tell Sir Will[iam Buck?] that Bawdes never saw the Solicitor General; Bawdes might write to Sir William if Hore advised it, Bawdes having seen and read the Bill twice, to explain how he could be of the opinion that Hore's estate was chargeable with 150 [pounds] yearly during his lifetime "when it is nothing like that sum"; it is worth 40 pounds per annum, but 1,000 pounds of it is in the hands of Lord Herbert who is responsible for the payment on that portion; Bawdes advises the sale of part of the estate reserved for Hore, his wife and children to discharge the 3,000 pounds which is chargeable on that part and let Lord Herbert pay on the "contingencies"; is this is Bawdes' opinion, Hore differs from it; the estate may be sold for the payment of 3,000 pounds when it becomes due, which will not be until his own death and not then if his daughter is not aged eighteen or married; besides it will mean selling an estate and lending money to Lord Herbert, under the proviso that in case his daughter should die before him or before she has reached the age of eighteen or has married, Lord Herbert is to repay him the money; it would be safer to pay the money when payable than lodge so much money in any lord's hands in the kingdom, for it may be more difficult to get the money with the interest from him than it may be to raise the money if it should ever [illegible]; besides there is only forty pounds to be paid to his daughter during his life; how must the [illegible] of

 

3,000 pounds be applied?; if to Hore's use, how should Bawdes advise him to recover it?; on the whole that method is of no advantage; Hore hopes that when Bawdes seriously considers it without partiality, he and "all other people else" who have seen the Bill must confess that it is the only thing [which] can be of any advantage to his wife[P.S.] Sir William need not question Mr. Marshall while the Bill is [illegible] or bother him on any account, his attendance being required in Parliament; "so I can go about my concerns without any danger"Note. The letter is addressed "To Councellour Bawdes att Summerby near Grantham Lincolnshire"

“HOAR (HORE) FAMILY – HODGES – PERRY – PORTER – HARRINGTON SIXTH GENERATION

 

According to Lyon J. Hoard of San Jose, Calif., in Oct. 1978, “There is considerable evidence to show beyond doubt that this family is a branch of the Hore family seated at the manor of Risford/Rushford, Chagford Paris [sic], Devonshire, since 1349. Further research in the English records is expected to establish this important connection. Records confirm the family’s gentry, social and economic standing.” This, and the following four generations of the Hore (Hoar) family in England was found in a file in the Historical library at Taunton, Mass.

[9] Shown as the father of William Hore (living 1524/9) in the Visitation of Devon.

[10] This Robert is omitted from the Hore of Chagford pedigree in the Visitation of Devon. He occurs under Chagford in the Devon Subsidy Roll of 1524/5, where he was rated at £40 of goods. However he does not appear in the Subsidy Roll of 1526/7, where we find William Hore of Chagford rated at £80 of goods. Robert was clearly the head of the family in 1524, though whether he was the father or elder brother of William who was head of the family in 1527 is uncertain. I believe that he was his father, as there are too few generations between the William who is attested by contemporary evidence as holding a third of Risford in 1428 and the William who held Risford in 1524 and 1529.

I believe this is a mistake for Charles Hore, of Chagford. The son William is also identified as the Rector of Bow Brickhill, Bucks., 1722-42 and of Tingrith, Beds., 1724-42. However, Alumni Oxonienses, p. 745 states that it was William Hore, son of Bernard Hore of Kintbury, Berks., who was Rector of those places at those times and that he had previously been Rector of Weston-in-Gordano, Somerset in 1716. I believe that Alumni Oxonienses is in error here, as it was Charles Hore, of Chagford’s brother-in-law Sir Charles Buck, 3rd Bt who held the advowson of Bow Brickhill. Charles Hore and William Hore also occur together in National Archives C 11/514/301734: http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/browse/r/h/C10448889?id=C10448889

[136] Transcription of original record (ancestry.com). The parish register at Little Brickhill records that banns were read there on 4 and 11 November 1787, for the marriage of James Hore and Ann Cole Parker, of Ridgmont, Bedfordshire. This appears to be in error. Yet on 20 April  1789 the baptism of Charles Hore, son of James Hore and Ann is recorded. This indicates that the marriage record in Ridgmont is in error (and that Charles was written where James was intended).

[153] A Charles Hore can be found living at Sheerness in the 1841, 1851 and 1861 Census. In the 1851 Census his place of birth is said to be “Little Bittle” in Buckinghamshire (no such place exists, it seems probable that the census taker misheard the place name). In the 1861 Census his place of birth is said to be “Buckell” in Buckinghamshire. Again, no such place exists and it seems probable that Little Brickhill is intended. The Charles Hore whose son Charles was born at the Garrison of Sheerness in 1819 is described as a ‘lamp lighter’ in the baptism record.

[196] Daniel Hore left “my sister Cogan” an annuity in his will of 1762. Their marriage allegation (dated 13 Dec 1734) states that Thomas Cogan was “of the parish of St. Peter Cornhill London Batchelor aged twenty four years” while Mary Hore is said to be “of the parish of St. Clement Danes in the county of Middlesex spinster aged twenty one years”, which would place her year of birth around 1713. This is a significant discrepancy though it is possible that she lied about her age.

[197] She does not seem to have left issue. Her husband married second at St Mary, Islington 3 January 1764 Philadelphia Stephens, and had 2 sons (Charles Hore Cogan, William White Cogan) and 1 daughter (Philadelphia):

[202] Scan of original record (findmypast.co.uk). Lt-Col Vivian states that Anne was buried at Chagford on 7 April 1706, however I believe this was in fact the burial record of a daughter of Charles Hore of Chagford. Tothill Hore and his wife had another child baptised at Chagford in 1707, but the parish register has faded so much that it is impossible to identify the child’s name.
