Christopher PARKHURST [Parents] [scrapbook] was born 1 about 1522. He died 2 on 10 Aug 1595 in Saint Lawrence, Ipswich, England, United Kingdom. Christopher married Mrs PARKHURST. CHRISTOPHER PARKHURST (George) is first on record on 2 May 1546 on a tax list of Saint Mary's parish, Guildford, Surrey. He'was assessed 4 pence for goods and 20 pence for lands and tenements. By a 1550 Feet of Fine, he and his sister sold land to his brother-in-law, probably property which he had inherited from his father. Probably his mother had died at that time and this was the final settlement of the estate. Octave of Hilary 1550- Nicholas Babbe, plaintiff, vs. Henry Alby, gentleman, and Elizabeth his wife, and Christopher Parkeherste, son and heir of George Parkeherste, deforciants, re a messauge, 42 acres of land and 8 acres of pasture in Guldeford, Stoke next Guldeford, and Merrowe. Consideration £40. Christopher Parkhurst was probably born in the period of 1520-24, married about 1546, and had five known children by this marriage. His wife must have died about 1567 and he remarried, perhaps about 15 68-9, and he then had several more children almost a generation younger than the first ones. This is apparent as there seems to have been a gap in the sequence of children. His son Christopher was too young to have been the father of these younger children. This is apparent from the will of Bishop John Parkhurst, in which he expressed concern about the education of his nephew Christopher, son of his brother Christopher. The nephew was thus surely underage at the time (157 3/4), and was perhaps born about 1572. In 1561, Christopher Parkhurst was named Keeper of the Bishop's Palace in Ipswich, county Suffolk, by his brother, who had been appointed Bishop the year before. He was probably the one 01 that name buried at Saint Lawrence, Ipswich, 10 August 1595. Children: HELEN, bapt. 25 June 1547 at St. Mary's, Guildford; m 1574 in St. Peter's, Creeting, Suffolk, William Crosse ELIZABETH, bapt. 2 April 1549 at St. Mary's, Guildford GEORGE, bapt. 13 March 1550/51 at St. Mary's, Guildford; m 1, Joan; she was buried 8 June 1619 at St. Lawrence, Ipswich; m 2, Thomasine Allen, 1 Aug. 1624 at St. Lawrence; he was buried 18 Dec. 1631 at St. Lawrence; Thomasine was buried out the gaile (jail) 15 Sept. 1636.

George PARKHURST [scrapbook] was born about 1495 in of Guilford, Surrey, England, United Kingdom. He died 1 about 27 Apr 1545 in Sussex, England, United Kingdom. George married George PARKHURST Mrs. GEORGE PARKHURST of Guildford, Surrey, is first found on record on the first page of the Guildford Borough records on 3 April 1514, apparently receiving a license to sell in the local market. Later that year he was chosen as a Hallwarden. This office had the responsibility of the actual fabric of the Guild Hall as well as the collection of sums due to the Guild Merchant for Admissions, and so on. Two men usually served together. A century later, they were Borough Treasurers in general. The office of Hallwarden dates back at least to 1361. The medieval Guildhall is now gone, the present building on the site in High Street having been built in the 17th century. On 6 October 1515, George Parkhurst was named Bailiff. On 18 January 1517/18, he was again sworn in as a Hallwarden. He is on the first list of Approved Men on 3 October 1519. Approved men were associates of the Mayor, entry being restricted to those who had served as Bailiff. There are many more entries in the Borough records for his appointment as Hallwarden and he was on the list of Approved Men year after year for the rest of his life. On 15 January 1514/15, he and Henry Cowper were sworn in as Flesh and Fish Tasters. In 1522, George Parkhurst was elected Mayor and Coroner of Guildford, being sworn in 6 October. He was reelected Mayor in 1529 and 1533. In 1533 he was one of two men elected a warden of the scole house (school house). In a list of harnes appoynted within the Towne of Guldeford in 1539, the third entry is: George Parkehurst the Elder A harnes with...a Byll in his owne handes. This meant that he was a member of the local militia with a suit of armor and a weapon, the bill being a form of pike used by the English militia then, harness being an archaic word for a suit of armor. On 27 April 1545, fines were levied against William Hamonde senior (2d.), Thomas Stoughton (4d.), George Parkhurst (6d.) and several others for permit[ting] their taverns in the High Street to be inclosed to the common nuisance. A year later he was fined 4 pence for the same offence. This may well be one of the old taverns mentioned in Colonial Homes (Vol. 9, pp. 40-4 1) as still standing on High Street. George Parkhurst probably died between 27 April 1545. and 2 May 1546 as he is mentioned in the Guildford Borough records on the earlier date, but is not on the tax list of the latter date. Christopher Parkhurst is called son and Heir of George Parkhurst in 1550 in a Surrey Feet of Fines. The earliest mention so far found of the name Parkhurst is of a place of that name in the parish of Abinger Hammer county Surrey, on a record of 1464. Parkhurst is about 9.. miles SEE of Guildford. It was from this wooded park, so named, that the family took its name. By the early 1500's Parkhursts were living in Shere, Guildford, Shalford and nearby. All were certainly closely related, the same given names being repeatedly used. Ref.: Guildford Borough records, edited by Enid M. Dance, pub. by The Surrey Record Society, 1958, Vol. XXIV' Surrey Feet of Fines; Colonial Homes, Vol. 9; N.E.H.G.S.- 68; Dictionary of National Biography; Encyclopedia Heraldica, by William Berry, London, 1828-40;.

		M	i	John PARKHURST was born 1 about 1511 in Guilford, Surrey, England, United Kingdom. He died 2 on 2 Feb 1574 in Guilford, Surrey, England, United Kingdom. JOHN, b 1510-1512; m Margaret, dau. of Thomas & Margaret (Fraunceys) Garneys of Kenton, Suffolk. At an early age he entered Magdalen .1 College School at Oxford, and subsequently joined Merton College, ~ where he was admitted to a fellowship in 1529 after graduating B.A. (24 July 1528). He was a good classical scholar and was adept in the composition of Latin epigrams. He took holy orders in 1532, and 4 proceeded M.A. 19 Feb. 1532/3. While he was acting as tutor at Merton, John Jewel, afterwards Bishop of Salisbury, was his pupil; he deeply interested himself in Jewel's progress, and they remained through life the most intimate of friends (Strype,Annals, II. i. 149-50). A thoroughgoing supporter of the Reformation, Parkhurst imbued Jewel with his rigidly protestant opinions. When, in 1543, Henry VIII and Queen Catherine Parr visited Oxford, Parkhurst wrote Latin verses in their honor and became chaplain to the queen. He was already chaplain to Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk, and to his wife Katherine, and his friends included Miles Coverdale and John Aylmer. Soon afterwards, he was appointed Rector of Pimperne, Dorset, and in 1549 was presented by Thomas, Lord Seymour, to the rich living at Cleeve Episcopi, Gloucestershire. Jewel and other Oxford scholars often visited him there, and he rarely sent them back to Oxford without gifts of money. When Jewel gave humanity lectures at Corpus Christi College, Oxford, Parkhurst went over to hear him, and declared in a Latin epigram that he was metamorphosed from a tutor to a pupil. On the accession of Queen Mary, he left the country and settled at Zurich, where he was hospitably received by Rudolph . Gaulter and other Calvanistic divines. Returning on the accession of ~ Elizabeth, he was robbed on the journey. which he made alone, of all of his moneyand of the fair copyof his epigrams. On 13 April 1560, he was elected Bishop of Norwich, and was consecrated and installed in September following. He was created D.D. at Oxford in 1566. The see of Norwich was thoroughly disorganised at the time of Parkhurst's appointment; many of the livings were without incumbants. Parkhurst did not prove himself equal to the situation. His Calvanistic leanings led him to encourage nonconformist practices; he declined to stay prophesying in his diocese, and, although he drew up a careful report of its condition in 1563, and prosecuted papists with some vigour, he took no steps to remedy the disorders with which the diocese abounded. He was hospitable, genial and extravagant in private life. In 1572, shortly before his death, he lost much money by the dishonesty of a servant, who had converted to his own use the tenths due to the exchequer from the diocese. In order that he might be able to refund the amount, Parkhurst moved from the bishop's palace, which he had elaborately repaired, to a small house at Ludham. To prevent the recurrence of such frauds as those which had crippled his resources, Parkhurst introduced a bill into parliament which was accepted by the government. Parkhurst published in the year before his death a collection of Latin epigrams which he had composed in his youth, and which were prepared for publication, as the preface states, at Zurich in 1558 (cf. Strype, Annals, II.i. 344 sq.). They have been unjustly described as matching Martial in obscenity. Though a few of them deal with topics which bishops usually deem unfitting to notice, the majority are eulogies or epitaphs on friends, and offend only by their tameness. Verses by Thomas Wilson, Alexander Nowell, Bartholomew Traheron, Lawrence Humphrey, and others, are prefixed. The title of the volume runs: Ioannis Parkhursti Ludicra siue Epigrammata Juu'enilia, Londini apud Johannem Dayum Typographum. 1573. A few are translated in Timothy Kendall's Flowrc~ of Epigrammes, 1577. Parkhurst is commonly credited with another volume, Epigrammata Seria, London, 1560, of which no copy is known. The theory of its existence se•3ms to rest on a confused interpretation of the preface to the extant book of epigrams which is dated 1558. He contributed to the collection of Epigrammata in mortem duorum fratrum Suffolcensium Caroli et Henrici Brandon , London, 1552, and to John Sheepreeve's Summa. . .Novi Testamenti disticis ducentis sexaginta cornprehensa, Strasburg, 1558. The translation of the Apocrypha in the bible of 1572 is also ascribed to him (Strype, Parker, ii. 222). Bale dedicated to him, in a eulogistic address, his Reliques of Rome in 1563. Some of his papers dealing with the regulation of his diocese are in the Cambridge University Library (E.e. ii. 34). He died on 2 Feb. 1574/5, aged 63, and was buried in the nave of his cathedral on the south side, between the eighth and ninth pillars. A monument marks the spot. Elegies by Rudolph Gaulter and his son were published at Zurich in 1576, in a rare tract which was dedicated to Edwin Sandys, Bishop of London (Brit. Mus.). The title r~msJnD. Ioannis Parhhvrsti Episcopi Nordouicertsis in Angli.a digni.ssimi obitum Epicedia Rodolphi Gualteri 7Ygurini~ Patris et Fuji. Excvdebat Christoph. Frosch. Anno MD.LXXVI . No children. On 24 Sept. 1559, he was granted these arms: Argent, a cross ermines between 4 bucks trippant proper, on a chief argent~ 3 crescents gule.
