MINOR CORRESPONDENCE.

The first annual meeting of the Cambrian Archæological Association will, we are informed, be held at Aberystwith, from the 7th to the 10th of September. Of this Association, formed for the purpose of examining, preserving, and illustrating all ancient monuments and remains of the history, manners, customs, and arts of Wales and its Marches, Sir Stephen Richard Glynne, the Lord Lieutenant of Flintshire, is the president; and the patrons are announced to be the Bishops of Bangor, Llandaff, St. David's, and St. Asaph. The name of Sir Samuel Meyrick is among those of the vice-presidents. To prevent labour being thrown away on subjects already in hand, the Committee have announced that papers are in preparation on the following subjects: the Local Antiquities of Aberystwith; the Roman Remains in Merionethshire and Montgomeryshire; the History and Architecture of Strata Florida Abbey; and the State of the Druidic Religion in Britain during the residence of the Romans.

The Rev. PETER HALL, of Bath, (who is engaged on a Liturgical Compilation, exhibiting at one view the substitutes that have been successively proposed for the English Liturgy, and the alterations made in adapting it to other churches,) would feel exceedingly obliged to any one who could inform him where there exists a copy of the Form of Prayer and Sacraments, commonly called the "Puritan Liturgy," the 4th edition, printed at Middleburgh, 1602, 12mo. or any later edition.

C. asks," Can any of your genealogyloving readers furnish any particulars of the Clarkson name anterior to the time of Queen Elizabeth?' I have discovered a continuous pedigree of one branch of the family from the above period to the present day, commencing with one Robert of Bradford, Yorkshire, who died in 1631, and whose son David is mentioned by Calamy in his Non-conformist Memorial as a divine possessed of an eminent degree of sacred knowledge, and conversant in the retired parts of learning.' cure was that of Mortlake in Surrey, from which he was ejected for non-conformity in 1662, and died in 1686, aged 64. His sister Mary was married in 1632 to John Sharpe, uncle to the archbishop of that name. The earliest record I find of the

His

name is in a list of the gentry of Staffordshire, returned by commissioners in the reign of Henry the Sixth, 1433. Names terminating in 'son,' as Johnson, Richardson, &c. are discoverable as early as the latter part of the fourteenth century, and in some few instances still earlier. The armorials of the branch to which reference is made above are, Argent, on a bend engrailed sable three annulets gold."

A. B. would feel obliged to any Correspondent who would inform him of a correct account of the later generations of the pedigree of Wootton, or Wotton, of Engleborne, co. Devon (also of Spetchwick Park); as those given under Mr. Urban's memoir of Mr. Estcourt Cresswell, and in the published Creswell pedigrees, seem to be totally discordant. The Wottons appear to have merged in that family; but some accounts make the heiress daughter of a Samuel, and others of a John, Wotton; and locating them respectively at Spetchwick Park and Engleborne.

PLANTAGENET informs us that in the parish church of Wiltau, a village close to Innspruck, and in whose cemetery sleeps many a brave Tyrolian killed in the battle on its neighbouring hill, which prevented the entry of the French into that city, is a gravestone remarkable to an English eye for the manner in which one of its armorial shields is placed thereon, and of which an account to the curious in heraldic matters may be interesting.

These are two separate shields for man and wife, marshalled, as occasionally also with us, along side one another: but with this peculiarity, viz. the woman's shield is reversed, or (to use a vulgar expression) placed topsy-turvy, for the purpose of denoting that she was the last of her family and name, as fully evidenced by the inscription under them. The lady was the wife of Herr Ferdinand von STAHLBURG, and is thus described:

..... UND FRAU GEBORNE CAMERIN ZU BERKHAIM, DIE LESTE IHRES STAMENS UND NAMENS, 1671. Another peculiarity of the heraldry of this gravestone is that the woman's shield is ensigned with a helmet and crest.

ERRATUM.-Page 165, col. 2, l. 11, for omisso, read amisso.
