Nikephoros II Phokas (Latinized: Nicephorus II Phocas; Νικηφόρος Β΄ Φωκᾶς, Nikēphóros II Phōkãs; c. 912 – 11 December 969) was Byzantine Emperor from 963 to 969. His brilliant military exploits contributed to the resurgence of the Byzantine Empire during the 10th century.

Early exploits Edit

Nikephoros Phokas was born in about 912 and belonged to a Cappadocian family which had produced several distinguished generals, including Nikephoros' father Bardas Phokas, brother Leo Phokas, and grandfather Nikephoros Phokas the Elder, who had all served as commanders of the field army (domestikos tōn scholōn). His mother, whose name is unknown, was a member of another powerful Anatolian clan, the Maleinoi.

Nikephoros joined the army at an early age. He was appointed the military governor of the Anatolikon Theme in 945 under Emperor Constantine VII. When his father was wounded in battle in 953, Nikephoros was promoted to supreme commander on the eastern frontier. In the war with the Abbasid Caliphate under Al-Muti, Nikephoros began with a severe defeat in 954, from which he recovered in the following years with victories in Syria, starting in 957.

From the accession of Emperor Romanos II in 959, Nikephoros and his younger brother Leo were placed in charge of the eastern and western field armies, respectively. In 960, 27,000 oarsmen and marines were assembled to man a fleet of 308 ships carrying 50,000 troops.[1][2] At the recommendation of the influential minister Joseph Bringas, Nikephoros was entrusted to lead this expedition against the Saracen Emirate of Crete. After a nine-month siege, Nikephoros stormed Chandax and wrested control of the entire island from the Muslims in 961. Upon returning to Constantinople, he was denied the usual honor of a triumph, permitted only a mere ovation in the Hippodrome.[3]

He soon returned to the east with a large and well-equipped army. In the campaigns of 962–963, he employed a brilliant strategy to conquer the cities of Cilicia and to advance into Syria. There he captured Aleppo, in collusion with his nephew, John Tzimiskes, but they made no permanent conquests. It was on these campaigns that he earned the sobriquet, "The Pale Death of the Saracens". During the capture of Aleppo, the Byzantine army took possession of 390,000 silver dinars, 2,000 camels, and 1,400 mules.

On 15 March 963, Emperor Romanos II died unexpectedly at the age of twenty-six of uncertain cause. Both contemporary sources and later historians seem to either believe that the young Emperor had exhausted his health with the excesses of his sexual life and his heavy drinking, or suspect Empress Theophano (c. 941–after 976), his wife, of poisoning him. Theophano had already gained a reputation as an intelligent and ambitious woman. She would later gain a reputation for ruthlessness in achieving her goals. Romanos had already crowned as co-emperors his two sons Basil II and Constantine VIII. At the time that Romanos died, however, Basil was five years old and Constantine only three years old, so Theophano was named regent.

Theophano was not allowed to rule alone. Joseph Bringas, the eunuch palace official who had become Romanos' chief councilor, maintained his position. According to contemporary sources he intended to keep authority in his own hands. He also tried to reduce the power of Nikephoros Phokas. The victorious general had been accepted as the actual commander of the army and maintained his strong connections to the aristocracy. Joseph was afraid that Nikephoros could claim the throne with the support of both the army and the aristocracy. Joseph's intrigues during the following months turned both Theophano and Nikephoros against him. Unknown to Joseph, Nikephoros was urged to seize the throne by his nephew John Tzimiskes, and he entered into negotiations with Theophano.

With the help of Theophano and the patriarch, Nikephoros Phokas received supreme command of the eastern forces and, after being proclaimed Emperor by them on 2 July 963, he marched upon the capital, where his partisans had overthrown his enemy Bringas. Thanks to his popularity with the army, Nikephoros II Phokas was crowned emperor by the side of Romanos's young sons on 16 August 963, and in spite of the opposition of the patriarch, he married their mother, the regent Theophano.

With unrest mounting around him, his second wife Theophano took as her lover Nikephoros II's nephew and general John Tzimiskes. Theophano and Tzimiskes would meet in secret and plot Nikephoros' death, with the plot eventually growing to include others – namely Michael Bourtzes (the disgraced commander who captured Antioch a few months earlier) and his servant Theodoros, Leo Balantes (who was ransomed by the emperor in 966) and Leo Pediasimos, one of Tzimiskes trusted retainers. On a blustery night, the conspirators went into the palace dressed as women. Nikephoros was warned that assassins were in the palace, and he demanded the palace be searched. The guards left the room of the empress unsearched, however, and the assassins avoided capture.[8] Later, when Nikephorus was asleep on the floor before the holy icons,[8] Tzimiskes and the others sneaked into his bed chamber, alarmed at first to find the bed empty (Nikephoros frequently slept on the floor). Aroused by the noise, Nikephoros rose just as one of the assassins swung his sword in an attempt to decapitate him. It struck him in the face, and he was then dragged to the foot of the bed, where Tzimiskes sat. Tzimiskes then shouted:

"Tell me, most senseless and malicious tyrant, was it not through my actions that you attained the heights of Roman power? How therefore did you pay no regard to such a good service? How, blinded by malice and madness, did you thus not hesitate to remove me, your helper, from command of the army?...."[8]
His head was cut off and paraded on a spike, while his body was thrown out the window. He was buried at the Church of the Holy Apostles, and John Tzimiskes became Emperor John I. An inscription carved on the side of his tomb reads: "You conquered all but a woman" (Ώ πλην γυναικός τα δ' άλλα Νικηφόρος).[9]

John Julius Norwich says "It was a honourable place; but Nikephoros Phocas, the White Death of the Saracens, hero of Syria and Crete, saintly and hideous, magnificent and insufferable, had deserved a better end".[10]

Nigel de Daubeney, 3rd Baron of Thirsk, 1st Baron of Mowbray (1070-1129), also known inaccurately as Nigel d'Aubigny, was a Norman Lord and English Baron who was the son of Roger d’Aubigny (1036-1104) and Alice de Grandmesnil (1055-1100). His father was a avid supporter of Henry I of England. He was born at Thirsk Castle in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, Kingdom of England. He was the founder of the noble House of Mowbray.

Life
He is described as "one of the most favoured of Henry’s 'new men'".[2] While he entered the king's service as a household knight and brother of the king's butler, William d'Aubigny, in the years following the Battle of Tinchebrai in 1106 Nigel was rewarded by Henry with marriage to an heiress who brought him lordship in Normandy and with the lands of several men, primarily that of Robert de Stuteville, 2nd Baron of Thirsk.[1] The Mowbray honour became one of the wealthiest estates in Norman England. From 1107 to about 1118, Nigel served as a royal official in Yorkshire and Northumberland. In the last decade of his life he was frequently traveling with Henry I, most likely as one of the king's trusted military and administrative advisors . He died in Normandy, possibly at the abbey of Bec.[3]

Family
He married twice. His first marriage was in 1107 to Matilda de L'aigle (1075-1129), daughter of Richer de L'aigle, Lord of L'aigle (1041-1085), who had divorced the disgraced and imprisoned Robert de Mowbray, 14th Earl of Northumbria (1059-1125). She brought to the marriage with Nigel her ex-husband's Lordship of Mowbray in western Normandy. They had no children. His second marriage was to Gundred de Gournay (1097-1155), daughter of Gerard de Gournay, Baron Of Gournay (1066-1104) in 1118 and had one son by that marriage. Cousin of Robert de Mowbray.

6261 Nikolaus Thomae (c. 1492-c. 1546) studied at Heidelberg (BA, 1512; MA, 1520).
In 1520, he became a parish priest in Flinsbach, close to his hometown of Sie-
gelspach. In 1525, he was working as a pastor in Bergzabern in the Palatinate,
where, along with Peter Hescher, he helped introduce the Reformation. He was
a close friend of Oecolampadius in Basel and Johannes Bader in Landau. He
engaged in a debate with Hans Denck, and wrote a detailed report about this
encounter in a letter to Oecolampadius on 1 April 1527 (BrOek 2:51-5, Ep. 479).
He spent a week in Strasbourg and discussed sixteen difficult points, especially
the matter of baptism, with Capito and Bucer. He had frequent contacts with
Anabaptists, with whom he associated on a friendly basis, as is attested by the
many letters to his fellow countrymen, Conrad Hubert.

Thoma, Nikolaus, Protestant theologian, * 1492, Siegels-
bach; ¢ 1546, (Bad) Bergzabern.
Thoma studied in Heidelberg from 1510 onwards and became a
master of arts as parish priest of Flinsbach in 1519. From
1524 onwards he taught at the grammar school in Bergz-
abern, where he was also pastor and superintendent until
the end of his life. He engaged in a disputation on child
baptism with the Anabaptist Hans — Denck in 1527. T. had
close links with Johannes —» Bader in Landau, supported
Kaspar von — Schwenckfeld and rejected -» Luther’s doc-
trine of the Eucharist. His surviving correspondence contains

6277 NOLD, Joseph B. - b: 1868 Pilot Grove, Cooper Co, MO
source: 1919 History of Henry Co MO, Uel W. Lamkin, Historical Publishing Co -
page: 458
residence: Bear Creek Twp

Joseph B. Nold. The section of country tributary to Montrose is one of the richest
and most productive sections of Missouri and is noted for its fine farms and
beautiful and well-kept homes. Combined with a rich soil, well watered, and
which is highly productive, is an excellent class of industrious and ambitious
farmers who are constantly endeavoring to improve their properties and to make
the surroundings more attractive to the eye and more comfortable as places of
residence. The farm of Joseph B. Nold of Bear Creek township just east of
Montrose is a splendid example of what ambition and industry will accomplish in
the course of a few years. This farm consists of 160 acres in the home place and
100 acres which Mr. Nold has recently sold to his brother. The land has on it fifty
acres of timber, bordering on Bear Creek, and is well watered at all seasons of
the year. Mr. Nold has a fine farm residence, a large barn covered with iron
sheeting, sixty by seventy-two feet, two silos twelve by thirty feet, one of
which is built of glazed tile. Mr. Nold is a breeder and feeder of shorthorn cattle,
and feeds large numbers of cattle and hogs. For a number of years he has been
engaged in the buying and shipping of live stock and handles from 50 to 100 loads
annually. Joseph B. Nold was born at Pilot Grove, Cooper County, Missouri, in 1868
and is the son of Albert Nold, who was born in Germany in 1843 and accompanied
his parents to America in 1850. The Nolds first settled at Cincinnati, Ohio and
then moved to Illinois, making a settlement in Cooper County, Missouri, in 1868.
Charles Nold, a brother, brought the first threshing outfit to Cooper County.
Albert Nold has prospered as he deserved and accumulated a farm of 240 acres in
Cooper County, near Pilot Grove. He also owned another tract of seventy-five
acres, but has recently sold his Cooper County land and moved to Montrose,
Missouri, in August, 1918. His wife was Catherine Felton; born in Germany in
1847, the daughter of Bertram Felton, who came to America in 1850, and settled
in Cooper County, Missouri, during the Civil War. Bushwhackers robbed him of
everything that he owned during the war, and he had a very hard time of it for a
number of years. There were eleven children born to Albert and Catherine Nold, as
follows: Joseph B., Max, Edward, Albert, John, Lee, and William, all living in Henry
County; Mrs. Lena Neckerman, Mrs. Katie Grotzinger, Mrs. Anna Stoecklein, living
in Cooper County; Mrs. Freda Brzuchalski, Henry County, Missouri. In 1893 Joseph
B. Nold began his own career in Cooper County, Missouri, and became owner of a
farm in that county. He disposed of his holdings there in 1909 and came to
Montrose, Henry County, and invested in 160 acres of land to which he added 100
acres. He is of the opinion that there is no better section of country in Missouri
than the Montrose neighborhood. Mr. Nold was married in 1893 to Miss Mary A.
Neckerman, who was born in Cooper County, Missouri, the daughter of Andrew and
Barbara Neckerman, natives of Germany, who were pioneer settlers of that
county. Mr. and Mrs. Nold have five children: Albert A., aged eighteen years; Lena,
aged sixteen years; Lovina, aged fourteen; Frank, twelve years old; and Theresia,
aged ten years. Mr. and Mrs. Nold are also rearing an orphan girl, Christina, and
have an adopted son, Andrew, aged twenty-eight years, now a private in the
National Army, in FRANCE. The Republican party has always had the support of
Joseph B. Nold, and he is now serving as trustee of Bear Creek township. He and
his family are members of the Montrose Catholic Church. He is fraternally
affiliated with the Knights of Columbus, the Catholic Knights of America, and
takes a prominent and influential part in the deliberations of these bodies. Mr.
Nold is universally recognized as a citizen of honor and integrity and his place
among the really successful men of Henry County is well established.

6278 Nominoë was the first Duke of Brittany from 846 to his death. He is the Breton "pater patriae" and to Breton nationalists he is known as "Tad ar Vro" ("father of the country").

Origins
He was the second son of Count Erispoë I of Poher, King of the Browaroch (775 - 812), and younger brother of Count Riwallon or Rivallon III of Poher (? - 857).

Rise and titulature under Louis the Pious
After a general rebellion which had enveloped the entire Carolingian Empire was put down, a general assembly was held at Ingelheim in May 831. It was probably there that the emperor Louis the Pious appointed Nominoe, a Breton, to rule the Bretons (which corresponded to "almost all" of Brittany). Regino of Prüm in his famous "Chronicon" writes, inaccurately for the year 837, that:

"Murmanus rex Brittonum moritur et Numenoio apud Ingelheim ab imperator ducatus ipsius gentis traditur.
Morman, king of the Bretons, died and Numenoi [Nominoe] was created duke of that same people by the emperor at Ingelheim."

Nominoe was a staunch ally of Louis the Pious until the emperor's death in 840. He supported Louis in the several civil wars of the 830s and he supported the monastery of Redon Abbey, even ordering the monks to pray for Louis in light of the emperor's "strife." Nominoe's power base was in the Vannetais and two charters refer to him as Count of Vannes, though it is unknown when that title was held, be it as early as 819 or as late as 834. Nominoe may not have possessed any land outside Vannes and his ability to gather revenue in Breton-speaking territories was probably no greater than any other aristocrat of those regions. His chief source of income after he broke with his overlord was plunder from raids into Frankish territory and from the despoliation of churches. He did have the political authority to exact payment (wergild) in the form of land from a man who had murdered his follower Catworet.

The title Duke of Brittany is primarily a chronicler's invention of the tenth century. Nominoe never held a title from the emperor, who refers to him in charters as merely "fidelis," "faithful one," or as "missus imperatoris," "imperial emissary," which probably was the title he was granted at Ingelheim. In Breton charters, Nominoe was known inconsistently by several titles from February 833 until his death:

"Nominoe magistro in Britanniam" ("Nominoe, master in Brittany")
"Nominoe possidente Brittanniam" ("Nominoe, possessing Brittany")
"gubernante Nominoe totam Brittanniam" ("Nominoe, governing all Brittany")
"Nominoe principe in Brittannia" ("Nominoe, prince in Brittany")
"regnante Nominoe in Brittannia" ("Nominoe, reigning in Brittany")
"Nominoe duce in Britannia" ("Nominoe, duke in Brittany")
"Nomenoius dux" ("duke Nominoe")
"Nominoius princeps" ("prince Nominoe")
"Nomenogius Britto" ("Breton Nominoe")

Loyalty and falling out with Charles the Bald
The relations between Nominoe and Charles the Bald, Louis's successor after 840, were initially amicable. In the midst of a revolt of his men in Neustria, Charles sent from Le Mans to see if Nominoe would submit to him in the spring of 841 and Nominoe agreed to do so. It is clear from the wording of the account of this event in Nithard that Nominoe was too powerful to be compelled to submit; later in 841 he rebuffed the overtures of the new emperor, Lothair I, who claimed Neustria. Nominoe remained loyal to Charles throughout the next year, even making a donation "in alms for the king" to the abbey of Redon on 25 January 842. Breton soldiers, as well as Gascons, certainly took part in the military show of the Oaths of Strasbourg.

In the summer of 843, Lothair or perhaps his supporter Lambert II of Nantes succeeded in persuading Nominoe to abandon Charles and go over to the emperor. Nominoe was thereafter a constant enemy of Charles and his authority in Neustria, often acting in concert with Lothair, Lambert, and Pepin II of Aquitaine. Breton troops fought under Lambert in Neustria and when, in June 844, Charles was besieging Toulouse, Nominoe raided into Maine and plundered the territory. In November 843, Charles had marched as far as Rennes to compel Breton submission, but to no effect.

At the synod of Yutz in October 844, presided over by Charles' uncle Drogo of Metz, the bishops sent orders to Nominoe, Lambert, and Pepin commanding them to renew their fealty to Charles or be prepared to accept military consequences. Lambert and Pepin complied, but Nominoe ignored the Frankish bishops. However, some Bretons had connived against him with Charles and the king tried to enter Brittany in support of the defectors, but without success: he was defeated at the Battle of Ballon just north of Redon across the Vilaine on 22 November 845. It is probable that in the Vannetais Nominoe's authority had been weakened after his split with Charles in 843 and Lupus of Ferrières reports "unrest" in Brittany during this period.

In 844 and 847 according to the "Annales Bertiniani," Nominoe made war on the Vikings.

Renewed loyalty and second rebellion
In Summer 846, Charles marched on Brittany and again took no military action, instead coming to peace with Nominoe and exchanging oaths. The details of the peace arrangements are unknown, but Prudentius of Troyes uses the title "duke" ("dux") for the first time in this context and this may indicate that Nominoe was created Duke of the Bretons in return for recognising Charles' lordship. As another part of the agreement, Nominoe had Charles remove Lambert from Nantes and put him in power in Sens further away.

By Christmas time, Nominoe's Bretons were raiding Neustria, this time near Bayeux, again. This was probably instigated by Lothair, for he, Charles, and their brother Louis the German met at Meerssen in February 847 and agreed to send orders to Nominoe and Pepin II to desist from making war on Charles. Nominoe, probably being paid by Lothair, did not in fact desist; neither did Pepin. In two campaigns in the spring and then fall of 849, Charles was in Aquitaine and Nominoe took the opportunity to raid Neustria. Charles reestablished Lambert in Nantes after Nominoe invaded Anjou.

In 850, Lambert (and his brother Warnar) had renewed their friendship with Nominoe and together were raiding Maine "with unspeakable fury" according to the "Chronicon Fontanellense." In August, Charles marched on Rennes, again avoided fighting, and installed garrisons there and at Nantes. Immediately after he left, Lambert and Nominoe defeated the garrisons and captured the new Count of Nantes, Amalric. On 7 March 851, Nominoe died near Vendôme while ravaging the Nantais and Anjou; he was buried at Redon Abbey. By his wife Argentaela, Nominoe left a son named Erispoe, who succeeded him. Nominoe was thus the founder of a political tradition in Brittany which had not thitherto existed; though his charters did not mimic Carolingian ones, his successors would imitate the legitimizing Carolingian language in theirs.

Deposition of the bishops
In 849 at a place called Coitlouh, Nominoe held a synod whereat he deposed the five Breton bishops of Alet, Saint-Pol, Vannes, Quimper, and Dol. The charges he levelled against them are unknown. Pope Leo IV sent a letter to Nominoe and the bishops (whether before or after the deposition is unknown) informing him that the depositions could only be enacted by a panel of twelve bishops with seventy-two witnesses. The later popes Benedict II and Nicholas I believed that Nominoe had forced the bishops to admit to crimes they had not committed and that their depositions were thus invalid. A Frankish synod of 850 held at either Angers or Tours accused Nominoe of simony by unlawfully removing bishops and replacing them with "mercenarii" (mercenaries of his own). These mercenarii were excommunicated, as indicated by an epistle of the synod of Savonnières in 859 sent to what remained of the Breton church in communion with the Archdiocese of Tours. Nominoe sacked Rennes and Nantes, replacing the new Frankish bishop of the latter with his own nominee.

Susannus was deposed in Vannes and replaced by Courantgen. Salocon was deposed in Dol, but his replacement is unknown. At Quimper, Felix was replaced by Anaweten and at Saint-Pol, Clutwoion replaced Garnobrius. The two bishops of Alet, first Rethwalatr and then Mahen are very obscure figures. The bishop of Nantes whom Nominoe succeeded in removing for about a year was Actard. His replacement was the obscure Gislard. In the end the synod of Coitlouh and the bringing of the bishoprics of Rennes and Nantes into the Breton fold meant that the church of Brittany was an actively independent ecclesiastic polity from its nominal metropolitan, the Metropolitan of Tours.

Succession
At his death Nominoe was succeeded by his son Erispoe. Nominoe was buried at Redon Abbey.

6280 Nora "Bun" Katheryn Siedenburg, 83, died Friday, February 21, 2014 at the Villa Marie Nursing Home in Jefferson City, Mo. Funeral service was held Wednesday, February 26, 2014, Rev. Paul Weisenborn officiating.

Nora Katheryn Kirchner Siedenburg was born Easter Sunday, April 20, 1930 to Carl and Nora (Martin) Kirchner on the family farm in Cooper County, Missouri. Since she was born on Easter Sunday her Father nick-named her "Bunny" which was shortened to Bun after High School. She attended the Washington School of Clark's Fork and graduated from Boonville High School in 1948. During her adolescent years her parents purchased a second farm near Clark's Fork where she and her sisters and brother labored alongside their parents. Bun was married to Arthur H. Siedenburg by Rev. Clifford Bliss at the Siedenburg family farm near Lone Elm, Missouri on September 11, 1948. (The "New" Zion Lutheran Church building in Lone Elm was under construction at the time). Bun was Confirmed and Baptized on February 11, 1949 in the Zion Lutheran School House. In the fall of 1948 Bun and Art moved to Lone Elm where Art began working for his Uncle Henry Niebruegge as a clerk in the Lone Elm Store. In 1969 Bun and Art became owners of the store. Their friendly greeting to customers entering the store is still cherished today by many patrons. Art and Bun were generous with their support of many local events including sponsorship of the Lone Elm baseball team and annual Labor Day Turtle Race. They operated the general merchandise and animal feed businesses until 1990 when they closed the store. In 1990 Bun became employed by the IGA grocers in Boonville, Missouri and retired from full-time employment in 1996. She continued working part-time at the grocery store for many years.

Bun began teaching Sunday School at Zion Lutheran Church in 1956 and taught consecutively for three generations (over 55 years). She joined the Zion Altar Guild in 1966 and served for over 40 years. Bun was also an active member of the Lutheran Women's Missionary League. For many years Bun was involved in the Zion 4-H Club along with her children and was associated with the Cooper County Red Cross. Due to failing health Bun and Art moved into the Villa Marie Care Center in Jefferson City, Missouri in 2013. Bun enjoyed participating in almost every activity, social event and worship service at Villa Marie.

Bun is survived by Arthur, her husband and faithful friend for over 65 years; 2 sons, 7 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren, two sisters and many nieces, nephews and friends.
Bun seemed happiest when her hands were in a flower bed or around the handle of a garden hoe. She loved to cook and enjoyed serving family and friends in her kitchen.

Her service to the Lord and her family is a tribute to her faith in God. She passed into heaven peacefully at her Villa Marie home, holding her husband's hand.

Birthdate: 1236
Birthplace: Lusignan, Vienne, Poitou-Charentes, France
Death: April 1290 (53-54)
Warren, Sussex, England

Immediate Family:
Daughter of Hugh XI of Lusignan, count of La Marche and Yolande de Dreux

Wife of Gilbert de Clare, 7th Earl of Gloucester and Gilbert de Lindsay, of Molesworth
Mother of
Isabella de Clare, Baroness Berkeley and
Johanna MacDuff

Sister of Hugues de Lusignan, Comte de la Marche; Marie de Lusignan; Isabelle de Lusignan; Geoffrey de Lusignan; Guy de Lusignan; and Yolande de Lusignan

Alice de Lusignan, Countess of Surrey (1224 – 9 February 1256) was the half-sister of King Henry III of England and the wife of John de Warenne, 6th Earl of Surrey. Shortly after her arrival in England from France in 1247, her half-brother arranged her marriage to the Earl, which incurred some resentment from the English nobility.

Alice was a member of the House of Lusignan born in Lusignan, Poitou, France in 1224, as the second eldest daughter of Hugh X de Lusignan, "le Brun", Seigneur de Lusignan, Count of La Marche and Isabella of Angoulême, queen dowager of England. She had five full brothers and three full sisters, besides her royal half-siblings from her mother's first marriage.
Lusignan, Vienne, France, the birthplace of Alice le Brun de Lusignan

In 1247, a year after her mother's death, Alice accompanied the new papal legate William of Modena, the Cardinal Bishop of Sabina, to England, which she had decided to make her home, and live at the expense of the Crown. In August of that year, her half-brother, King Henry married her to John de Warenne, 6th Earl of Surrey (August 1231 - 29 September 1304). The marriage caused some resentment amongst the English nobility, as they considered the King's Lusignan siblings to be parasites and a liability to the Kingdom. Many prestigious honours and titles were granted to the Lusignans. Alice was also said to have been disdainful of all things English.
John was the son of William de Warenne, 5th Earl of Surrey and Maud Marshal.
Together they had three children.
1. Eleanor de Warenne (1251–1282), married Sir Henry de Percy, by whom she had issue, including Henry Percy, 1st Baron Percy of Alnwick.
2. Isabella de Warenne (c.1253 - before 1292), married John Balliol, and was the mother of Edward Balliol.
3. William de Warenne (9 February 1256 - 15 December 1286). He was killed in a tournament. He married Joan de Vere, by whom he had two children, John de Warenne, 7th Earl of Surrey, and Alice de Warenne (15 June 1287 - 23 May 1338), who in turn married Edmund FitzAlan, 9th Earl of Arundel.
Death
Alice died in Warren, Sussex, England, on 9 February 1256 after giving birth to her only son, William. She was about thirty-two years of age.

6296 NOT to be confused with John Tate, Esq. (1749-1802) of Augusta County, Virginia, s/o John Tate and Mary Mitchell, who married Jane "Jinney" Steele [or Jane Berry, according to some researchers].

The following bio sketch appears on Find A Grave:
John Tate was a son of Robert Tate and Mary [Doak]. About 1766 in Virginia, he married Mary Bracken, daughter of John Bracken and Martha Green.

In November of 1772, at age 29, John and his family settled in the Moccasin Valley of what is today known as Russell County, Virginia, about 15 miles southwest of present Lebanon. Sometime around 1776, John and his neighbors built a fort on his land for protection against Indians. It was known as Tate's Fort and is mentioned by early emigrants to Kentucky and Tennessee.

In October 1780, John as militiaman of (then) Washington County, participated in the successful Revolutionary War battle of King's Mountain, South Carolina.
In 1789, John became Captain in the 2nd Bat., 72 Reg. Of the Virginia Militia.
In 1795, John became Major in the 2nd Bat., 72 Reg. Of the Virginia Militia.
By 1801, John became Sheriff and Collector of Revenue for Russell County, and served two years.
In 1802, John became Lt. Col. Commandant of the 72 Reg., 3rd Division of the Virginia Militia, and since has become known as Col. John Tate. His appointment was by James Monroe, Governor of Virginia and later President of the United States.

In 1826, at over 80 years of age, John again became Sheriff and Collector of Revenue for Russell County, and served another two years.

The following notes were rolled over into New Family Search from a file written by Rod Fugate on 3 April 1999:
Subj: VA Russell, Frontier Forts [At the time his email was rfugate103@aol.com]
"John Tate settled on Big Mockerson [Moccasin] Creek on a spur of Clinch Mountain on the Holston River in November 1772. The land in the Moccasin Valley on which John Tate first settled was Botetourt County. Shortly thereafter it became Fincastle County (Jan. 1773-Jan. 1777). In 1777 Fincastle County was discontinued, and the land became part of Washington County. (Jan. 1777-May 1786).

"In 1786, John's original settlement near Lebanon became present day Russell County. John obtained his first land grant of 145 acres from the Royal Company of Virginia. The land was surveyed 12 December 1774 by John Floyd, Deputy to Colonel William Preston, Surveyor of Fincastle County. Around 1775-1776, John and his neighbors built a fort for protection against Indians on his land. The fort was called Tate's Fort and was known by early travelers to Tennessee and Kentucky." The colonel's daughter Hannah married Rod's 4th great grandfather Colbert Fugate.

Addendum by Carol Bays, 4th great grand niece of Col. Tate. Another of his daughters, Lydia also married a Fugate. His name was William Fugate, and his name is found on old land records of Russell County. Their son Uriah married Drucilla, daughter of Solomon John Frazier. Solomon's grandson Dale Frazier was my great grandfather. He grew up in Scott County and with Darthula Bays had two sons, the younger of whom was my grandfather Robert Bays. Their first son James Bays was born in 1866, shortly after the Civil War, when Dale was still in his late teens. Dale didn't marry my great grandmother. He later went on to another state to marry a girl there who was 10 years his junior.

Back around 2012 I was doing research on the Bays, Frazier, Fugate and Tate families. My 4th great grandfather William Bays (who was in his mid-teens) served in the Pittsylvania County Militia around the time of Lord Dunmore's War in 1774 under Captain Joseph Martin, Jr. Many of the men remained with Capt. Martin when the Revolutionary War started. Martin's forts were built closest to Cumberland Gap down in Lee Co., VA. Rye Cove fort and Blackmore's fort were closer to the Clinch Mtn. range. William Bays eventually owned property on Clinch Mtn. Here is an interesting mini history of Blackmore's Fort from http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~varussel/other/forts.html:
"This is the 'small fortification' that Captain Russell wrote Preston was being built at Blackmore’s at the mouth of Stony Creek, but which in time grew to be the second most important fort on the frontier. It was built on the lands of Captain John Blackmore, who along with his brother Joseph had come from Fauquier Co., VA, with their families to carve out homes in the wilderness in the year 1772.

"Being more exposed, it was attacked by Indians more often than Moore’s and many people were killed and captured in and around this fort. The fort stood on the north side of Clinch, just outside the village of Fort Blackmore. It was to Blackmore’s that all the people came when the forts in Powell Valley were evacuated in 1776, just prior to the outbreak of the Cherokee War, as did the people from Rye Cove Fort. It must have been of large proportions, but no one has left any known description of this fort. According to Samuel Alley who was born in sight of the fort in the year 1801, it was torn down and no vestige of it remained in 1887, when he paid a visit to his old home and found the ground where the old fort stood being tended in corn. However, nearby stood an apple tree planted by his father which to that day was known as the 'John Alley Apple Tree.'

"Across the road in a fringe of trees and brush, and slightly northeast of where the old fort stood is the old fort graveyard, with rows of small, uncut stones marking the final resting place of those who died from either the stroke of disease or tomahawk in the long ago. Always known as Blackmore’s Fort, the village today, almost two centuries later still bears the name except in the reverse order of Fort Blackmore."

There is a "Paul Harvey Rest of the Story" about Hannah Tate Fugate mentioned above. Since this is a Latter-day Saint database where these particular records are recorded, I will not shrink from relating a spiritual experience I had around 2012. I had been working the Frazier and Fugate lines, as well as reading up on the forts of Southwest Virginia. I know that my 4th great grandfather William Bays served with Capt. Martin, probably at Rye Cove, then Blackmore's and eventually at the Long Island of the Holston. That's why I also believe he participated in the Battle of King's Mtn., though there's no record of it. However, his brother in law John Barker, also from the same Pittsylvania Co. Militia company, was at King's Mtn.

During this time period in 2012 when I was studying the history of the forts, early one morning I had a dream. A man who identified himself as Col. Tate appeared to me. He was dressed in a dark blue jacket with a double row of brass buttons. On his head was one of those flat brimmed round dark hats with a ribbon around the brim that reminded me of what the sailors of that era wore. He seemed very eager to convey some information to me and was concerned that I wouldn't remember it when I woke up. So with a certain amount of exasperation, he threw his hands out toward me three times and repeated, "Tate! Tate! Tate!"

Later that day after I woke up, I dutifully worked my way through about five generations of family lines to cross over to his name, since he is related to me by marriage (his daughter Hannah and my 3rd great aunt Lydia being sisters). He was right--I didn't recall specifically what he asked me to do. Another distant relative had entered his name and that of his children (although I discovered today that people have messed with those files, with half of his kids listed with their mother, and half without her listed). I'll have to fix that. At the time I was looking into those files, I discovered that LDS ordinance work had been done for all of Col. Tate's kids except Hannah. I realized that he wanted me to submit her name for temple work and have her sealed to him and his wife, since their other kids were sealed to them. It was such a sweet feeling to know that I could unite this family of one of our early Revolutionary heroes. I am grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ and for the restoration of priesthood powers in our temples today. --Carol Bays

William de Warenne, 1st Earl of Surrey, Lord of Lewes, Seigneur de Varennes (died 1088), was a Norman nobleman created Earl of Surrey under William II Rufus. He is among the few known from documents to have fought under William the Conqueror at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. At the time of the Domesday Book in 1086, he held extensive lands in 13 counties, including the Rape of Lewes, a tract now divided between the ceremonial counties of East Sussex and West Sussex.

Early career
William was a son of Rodulf or Ralph de Warenne[1] and Emma, and reported to have descended from a sibling of Duchess Gunnor, wife of Duke Richard I. Chronicler Robert of Torigni reported, in his additions to the Gesta Normannorum Ducum of William of Jumièges, that William de Warenne and Anglo-Norman baron Roger de Mortimer were both sons of an unnamed niece of Gunnor. Unfortunately, Robert's genealogies are somewhat confused – elsewhere he gives Roger as the son of William, and yet again makes both sons of Walter de Saint Martin – while several of Robert's stemmata seem to contain too few generations.[2] Orderic Vitalis describes William as Roger's consanguineus – literally a "cousin", more generally a term of close kinship not typically used to describe brothers – and Roger de Mortimer appears to have been a generation older than him.[2][3]

Charters report several earlier men associated with Warenne. A Radulf de Warenne appears in two charters, one dating between 1027 and 1035, the other from about 1050 and naming his wife, Beatrice. In 1059, a Radulf and wife Emma appear along with their sons Radulf and William. These occurrences have typically been taken to represent a single Radulf with successive wives, of which Beatrice was the mother of William and hence identical to the Gunnorid niece described by Robert de Torigny,[4][5] yet the 1059 charter explicitly names Emma as William's mother.[2]

Re-evaluation of surviving charters led Katherine Keats-Rohan to suggest that Robert of Torigni compressed two generations into one, as he appears to have done elsewhere, with Radulf (I) and Beatrice being parents of Radulf (II) de Warenne and of Roger de Mortimer – a Roger son of Radulf de Warenne appears in a charter dated 1040/1053 – while Radulf (II) in turn married Emma, and as attested by the 1059 charter, they had as sons Radulf (III) as the heir in Normandy, and William. Associations with the village of Vascœuil led to identification of the Warenne progenitrix with a widow Beatrice, daughter of Tesselin, Viscount of Rouen, who appeared there in 1054–1060. Robert of Torigni shows a different Viscount of Rouen to have married a niece of Gunnor, perhaps suggesting that it was through Beatrice that William de Warenne was linked with Gunnor's family.[2] [a]

William was from the hamlet of Varenne, near Arques-la-Bataille, Duchy of Normandy, now in the canton of Bellencombre, Seine Maritime.[9][10][11]

At the beginning of Duke William's reign, Radulf de Warenne was not a major landholder, while William de Warenne as a second son did not stand to inherit the family's small estates. During the rebellions of 1052–1054, the young William de Warenne proved himself loyal to the Duke and played a strong part in the Battle of Mortemer for which he was rewarded with lands confiscated from his kinsman, Roger of Mortemer, including the Castle of Mortimer and most of its lands.[12]

At about the same time, he acquired lands at Bellencombre including the castle that became the centre of William de Warenne's holdings in Normandy.[13][14]

Conquest of England
William was among the Norman barons summoned to the Council of Lillebonne by Duke William when the decision was made to oppose King Harold II's accession to the throne of England.[13][15] He fought at Hastings and was rewarded with numerous holdings. Domesday records his lands stretching over 13 counties, including the important Rape of Lewes in Sussex, several manors in Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex, the major manor of Conisbrough in Yorkshire and Castle Acre in Norfolk, which became his headquarters or caput.[13][14]

He is one of few proven companions of William the Conqueror known to have fought at the Battle of Hastings in 1066.[16][17][18] He fought against rebels at the Isle of Ely in 1071, where he showed a special desire to hunt down Hereward the Wake, who had killed his brother-in-law Frederick the year before.[19][20]

Hereward is supposed to have unhorsed him with an arrow shot.[21]

Later career
Sometime between 1078 and 1082,[22] William and his wife Gundred travelled to Rome, visiting monasteries on the way. In Burgundy they were halted by a war between Emperor Henry IV and Pope Gregory VII. They visited Cluny Abbey in France and were so impressed by the monks and their dedication that they decided to found a Cluniac priory on their own lands in England, for which William restored buildings for an abbey. They sent to Hugh, Abbot of Cluny, to staff their monastery. At first Hugh was reluctant, but he finally sent several monks, including Lazlo, who was to be the first Abbot. The house founded was Lewes Priory, dedicated to St. Pancras,[23][24] which was England's first Cluniac priory.[25]

William supported the King in the siege of Saint-Suzanne against some rebellious lords. His loyalty to William II[19] led to his creation as Earl of Surrey, probably in early 1088.[26] In the Rebellion of 1088 he was mortally wounded at the First Siege of Pevensey Castle, and died on 24 June 1088 at Lewes, now in East Sussex. He was buried beside his wife, Gundred, in the chapter house of Lewes Priory which he had founded.[27][28]

Family
William de Warenne married first, before 1070, Gundred, Countess of Surrey,[29][30] sister of Gerbod the Fleming, 1st Earl of Chester.[31]

William married secondly a sister of Richard Gouet, who survived him.[32]

Issue
By Gundred, William had:

William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey (died 1138), who married Elisabeth (Isabelle) de Vermandois, widow of Robert de Beaumont, 1st Earl of Leicester[33]
Edith de Warenne, who married first Gerard de Gournay, lord of Gournay-en-Bray, and then Drew de Monchy[34]
Reynold de Warenne, who inherited lands from his mother in Flanders[34] and died c. 1106–1108[35]
A daughter of unknown name, who married Ernise de Coulonces.[36]
He had no issue by his second wife.

6299 NOTE: There appears to be a conflict of husbands for Agnes Throckmorton as well as too many children. I will be trying to clean up the links based on birth locations and whatever sources i can find. After I complete the project, I will remove this note. Also be aware that I have already done a goid deal of work, combining and separating Agnes's ancestors. (Agnes's mother and cousin were treated as the same person as an example) I believe what I've done so far is correct. If you disagree, let me know.

CLAN MacQUAIG

Motto: Per mare, per terras

Translation: By Sea, By Land

Sept: Listed as a sept of the clans Farquharson, Campbell, MacLeod, Gunn, MacNaughton, Donald

Spelling: Spelling variations of this name include: Coig, MacQuagge, MacQuage, MacQuaig, McQuaig, McQuag, MacCuaig, McCuaig, MacCowag, McCowag, McCrivag and more.

Origins of the name: The surname Coig originated among the Celtic people of ancient Scotland. They spoke Scots Gaelic, a language that survives to this day and is closely related to the Goidelic spoken in Ireland. This is a language rich in idiom and expression whose influence is felt throughout Scotland and particularly so in the Highlands. The word "coig" means "five" in Gaelic. In Goidelic, the same word is "cuig". However, it is unlikely that the name derived from this word in its inception. At present, there is some confusion about where and in what form the surname Coig first appeared. Our research so far points to a possible Irish beginning in the form "O'Quig", which later became McQuig when some of the family settled in Scotland. Another possibility is that it originated in Scotland as "MacCooish" or "MacCuag" which are included in the list of septs of the clan MacDonald. But a more likely provenance is the form “MacCaig”, which is included in the list of septs of the clan MacLeod of Harris. Also, the clan Farquharson lists "MacCaig", "MacCuag" and "MacQuaig" among its families. To the best of our knowledge, our family name is now extinct in Scotland in its present form, but it may survive in one or more of its alternative spellings. The "Coig" form survives mainly in France, Spain and the United States.

Location: This clan is first found in the Hebrides where they held a family seat. They were located in Islay where they were recognized as a Sept. of Clan Donald. Later they were also found on the Isle of Arran.
