Graftombe van Philip de Cerne
|
Manor of Draycote / Landhuis van Draycote
De volgende (engelstalige) informatie heb ik op het internet over 'De Serne' gevonden:
De familie De Cerne was de eigenaar of bezitter van het Landhuis van Draycote, rond het eind van de 14de en 15de eeuw. Bij dit landhuis hoort een kerkje waarin enkele De Cerne's zijn begraven.

Graftombe
This is the tomb of Philip de Cerne (who died in 1295?). The carving of the canopy, added in the 14th century, is in good condition but there is less detail in the carving on the effigy itself.
The history leaflet, written by Tim Couzens, informs us that the effigy is of plain limestone, and portrays Philip as a knight in full armour. The face has no detail, but Tim suggests it could have been covered with a mask. The feet rest on a dog, which indicates he died at home.

Familiewapen De Cerne
Dit familiewapen is van Philip de Cerne (ook wel genaamd Felipe de Serne) en staat vermeld in diverse zogeheten wapenrollen. Ik heb geen enkel idee of er een verband bestaat tussen deze familie 'De Cerne' en de eerste Serne's in Nederland. Er staat wel leuke informatie over deze familie 'De Cerne' op internet, en omdat het heel heel heel misschien ergens familie is, heb ik het op de website geplaatst.
De bovengenoemde wapenrollen zijn:
1. St George's Roll, Part 8, E 610
2. The Dering Roll, Part 5, 243
3. The Heralds' Roll, Part 6, 278

De beschrijving van het wapen is (in het Engels):

Meer informatie over het Landhuis
The Manor of Draycote has passed (since the reign of Richard I) through the following hands.
1. St. German.
2. Venuz or Venoir.
3. Cerne.
4. Herynge.
5. Long.
6. Earl of Mornington.
In 1196 (8 Rich. I) Ralph de St. German, and his mother Margaret wife of Ralph de oaksey, transferred it on payment of fifty marks to Robert de Venuz (of probably a Hampshire family). [Wilts. Fines.] In 1223 (8 Hen. III) John de Venuz was in debt to the King. [Rot. lit. Claus. I. pp. 619, 644.] The obligation was assigned by the Crown to Master Henry de Cerne, who appears to have been paid off by receiving from Venuz the Vill and Advowson of Draycote, conformed to him by Royal Charter dated at Dunstable 20th January 1228. Master Henry de Cerne was an Ecclesiastic, clerk of the King's Chapel, an architect and engineer,and was also employed by the King in embassies to Rome. As a witness to Wiltshire Deeds, he is called Henry de Capella [Proc. of Ant. Soc. IV. p. 18.] Philip de Cerne his brother and heir succeeded to Draycote in 1254 (39 Hen. III) From him descended Sir Edward de Cerne, who died 1393, and whose effigy with that of his second wife Ellen are in brass on the chancel floor. On the death of Sir Edward's grandson Richard Cerne in 1430 without issue, the heir was found to be John Heryng of Chaldon Heryng, by descent from Anastasia de Cerne, sister of Henry the clerk of the King's Chapel, above mentioned. Isabella mother of Richard Cerne being still in possession for her life, John Heryng in 1437-8 (16 Hen. VI) sold his reversionary interest; nominally to William Ryngbourne, really to Robert Long of Wraxhall. see particulars and pedigree of cerne, in Wilts. Archaeol. Mag. Vol. III. p. 178.
