Honour For an Earl by his Charter carrieth his Honour with him in all places and that is his true name as above is adjudged and is not to be sued or sue is adjudged without it and so the nine learned Civilians and Serjeants have certified and Nova Scotia is so annexed to Scotland Adam de Valentia and Marshall Earle Palatines of Pembroke by Conquest in the kingdome or Principality of Wales then out of England was a Peer to the English Parliament and so the three Irish Conquerours Palatines recited and how absurd a conceit it is that our Earl Palatine in Albion and he of Pembroke in Wales and the rest having all Regalities and Powers Lordship Honour and Titles and power to give Honours and make Barons coming out of their Countries into England should here bee un-Lorded and debased unto Esquires without Lordship Honour or Precedency And note all these and Earl Fitz Allen in his locall Earldome of Arundel by Writ being called to Parliament is not there by an Earl for to be called by Writ is onely to be a Lord or Baron and so the Earle of Arundels Title and Precedency was adjudged him after long debate by Parliament To conclude the Earl Palatines of Chester and Pembroke and Montgomery or de Belesmo in Shropshire were the greatest Princes of England and by their Conquests and so in Ireland by their Hazard and Conquests that kingdome and Wales is gotten to this Crown And so the now Lord five Proprietors that now conquer on Indians and convert Pagans and civilize them and bring them to the obedience of our Soveraign and at their own charges have made an entrance and sure way with the other Colonies of America to make our Soveraign an Emperour of America having now neer two hundred thousand to defend his Empire and therefore deserve all Honour and Encouragement amongst which our Earl Palatine having adventured in person seven years with so much hazard and charges is chiefly to be advanced and honoured according to his worth Now for the pedegree and ancient Family of our Earl Palatine of 1200 years descent being in England and borders of Wales I finde onely a letter in the name changed in each Age and Conquest or change of Nation for in Henry of Huntingdon and William of Malmsbury his Chronicles of all the Saxon Princes that here arrived and seated and conquered the Britains this family descending of a daughter came with those Princes into Britany and I find that in lower Saxony neer Hamboro and Holstein a member of the Empire and in all Maps there is still in that harsh language Ployen a wall'd City by a lake and Plowen a walled Castle of Count Plowen a Count of the sacred Empire in Grimstons and other Histories mentioned Now the Welch make and turn the vowel u into i or y as from Brutus to Britons so Plowden to Ployden as all Maps write it In Deeds and the Bishop of Herefords Records I find Anno Domini 904. an Exchange pro decem manlis vocat Ploydanes place super quas Episcopus aedificaturus est Castrum called Bishops Castle in which Town the Ploydens have much lands and tenements having Ployden Manor Ployden Hall Longvili Castle and thirteen Townes about it to this day and at the coming in of H. the seventh were Commanders of that country and Constables or Chastellains of that Fort of Bishops Castle now Ployden and Ployden is all one Forest of Danes for Denc the Norman pronuntiation which name of Ployden signifieth kill Dane or wound Dane and Pleyden by Ry in Sussex was of this house and signifieth in French hurt Dane and this Pleyden sent his sons and conquered in Normandy where are five families yet and the heir of Pleyden wanting issue made it an Hospitall now held by the Earle of Thanet Lord Toston So Plowen Ployen Ploydane Ployden Plowden and Pleyden is all one for the change of time and severall Nations pronunciation Saxons Danes English Welch and Normans And note to this day an Esquire in France of 300 yeares standing of Coat Armor shall take place and precedency of any Earle Vicount or Baron which is not so ancient of Coat Armor they not allowing the King by new creations to bar their inheritance and precedency And for their greatnesse and pedegree I finde Ployden maried the daughter of John de Monte Gomerico now called Mount Gomery Earl of Salopshire in William the Conquerours reign and in Edward the thirds time maried the daughter of that great and rich Knight Burley Conquerour in France Humphrey Ployden in H. the sevenths time maried the daughter and heir Stury of Stury Hall daughter of Corbet of Morton Corbet by whom the Lacons Laytons Bromlees Purcelswollascot of Wollascot and the two Baronets Lee and Corbet Knights for the County of Salop to this Parliament are of his kindred And of the daughters of Iohn Ployden Lord Blany of Ireland and of the other daughter maried to Hardwick grandmother to that great Thin of Clause Castle the third daughter maried to Walcot of Walcot Close to Ployden yet men of great possessions the Countesse of Bristoll being a Walcot and so her sons the Lord Digby and Sir Lewis Dives and Vicountesse Chichester or Belfast and the other Ladies her daughters are descended and are his kindred Our Earl Palatines mother being sister of Sir Richard Fermor of Somerton and cousen of Sir George and Sir Hatton Fermor descended of the Knightlies and so the Lord Vicount Say and Seal the Countesse of Thomond a Fermor and her children and Vicount Wenman marying Sir Hatton Fermors children the Baronesse of Aborgenny and her sister maried to Baronet Gage are his Neeces his mother the Lady Penel●pe daughter to the Lord Darcy Vicount Colchester Earl River● but his branches for three last descents are so many and at least fifty Baronets Knights Esquires of 1000 l. per annum at least and their numerous issue but for heirs males of the name his first is Ployden of Wansteed Ployden of Shipplacke Ployden of Askon Ployden of Ployden and Ployden of Lee and Doctor Ployden late of Lambeth And for his now wife Countesse Palatine daughter and heir to two worthy families Neece of Sir George and Sir Hambden Paulet deceased in that pedegree 300 from the Marquesse of Winchester Lord high Treasurer of England are allied All which I have more fully published that all of his kindred may any ways poor or oppressed the sooner be preferred advanced and transplanted to this most rich and pleasant Province and to great possessions and honours there as
