Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Parliamentary History of the County of Oxford, Including the City and University of Oxford, and the Boroughs of Banbury, Burford, Chipping Norton, Dadington, Witney, and Woodstock, From the Earliest Times to the Present Day, 1213-1899: With Biographical and Genealogical Notices of the Members This Work being the fifth of the series of Parliamentary Histories, little fresh need be said in the way of introduction, otherwise than to point out a few salient features especially relating to the record of Members for the County of Oxford, which important shire, so rich in historical interests, still remains with its County History yet unwritten, as if the abundance of Books describing the history and antiquities of the University and its Colleges had overshadowed all else in the county besides. And yet one branch of the subject alone - its Members of Parliament - cannot but possess for the historian and antiquarian alike objects of the greatest interest, for among its Representatives during the last six centuries Oxfordshire has elected to Parliament members of such ancient families as those of Williamescote, Elsefield, Nowers, Abberbury, Wace, Barentyne, Quatermayns, and Feteplace, now long extinct, Harcourt, Stonor, and Norreys, Fiennes and Knollys which still exist, and among more modern names those of Doyly, Cope, Wenman, Jenkinson, Dashwood, Spencer, Churchill, Herbert, Stapleton, Lee, Parker, North, Annesley, and Fane. The earlier Knights of the Shire were often literally "belted Knights" for prowess on many a hard fought field or expedition in France or Scotland; they held their lands by actual tenure of Knight-service, and so doing were granted "Protection when abroad on the King's service," and by their valorous deeds obtained the King's pardon for their slayings and robberies; and at home acted as Sheriffs, Escheators, or Coroners or were placed in Commissions of the Peace, of Oyer and Terminer of Subsidy, or of Array. Several of them were the "King's Servants," as 'Esquires' or 'Yeomen, ' and as such shewed themselves thorough courtiers by the grants of forfeited lands or annuities which they obtained from successive Monarchs. William le Marescbal was a Purveyor of the King's Stables. Thomas Chaucer was the King's Chief Butler, as well as an Ambassador, and Speaker of the House. Danvers (a contemporary of Jack Cade), was Chief Justice of the Common Pleas. During those rough and stormy times it is not surprising to find that Ralph Chastiloun died from the effects of a violent affray with another Member, Sir Ralph de Nowers, while Sir Robert Harcourt was slain by the Staffords. In later times it was Sir John Williams of Thame who proclaimed Queen Mary at Oxford in 1553, and afterwards took a prominent part in Archbishop Cranmer's martyrdom.
