Dear John, A while ago you emailed me about your interest in Charles Fairfax. A new member has joined our society whose wife is linked to Charles Fairfax. I am just emailing you to see if you would like to contact him or join the Society. http://walter9.info/Society/ Best wishes Anne -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: 22 August 2010 12:50 To: [email protected] Subject: [SOG-UK] Charles Fairfax of Menston: SOG-UK Digest, Vol 5, Issue 114 Dear Anne That's all very interesting - I have passed down the family an unresearched parchment 'tree' which appears to date from 1754 which ends 'Memm. May 22nd 1754 the above pedigree is taken from a manuscript in the handwriting of the Honourable (x) Coll Chas Fairfax late of Menston which has been collected by him and is now in my possession. J Pulleyn' ' pedigree is headed 'the Decent of the several Families of Rodes both of High Rodes & Menston extracted out of Couchiers & evidences both theirs and my own (x) C Fairfax' '(x) Charles Fairfax livd in King Charles the 1st's time and is often mentioned by the great Antiquary Mr Dodsworth & by Mr Dugdale likewise in his Baronage' There are Latin references to Bolton and Kirkstall Abbeys. This has so far stayed in the too difficult basket on account of my own Latin deficiencies! The earliest reference appears to be 1195, and the earliest Rodes names '1. Luilfus del Rodes and 2. Willm dictus Ruff filius Liulfi' Sorry this is more a question than an answer but I would be interested in any observations on the provenance of this manuscript. My GGGGrandfather was William RHODES, son of Edward RHODES (1767- 1843). The family were brewers in Wetherby and then Thirsk in Yorkshire. Best wishes John John K.H.
