Biography
In common with his Vaux kin Fermor remained a Catholic and it was only under Mary that he cut any figure in public life. He probably took his stand for her during the brief conflict in Northamptonshire over the succession, as his brother-in-law Sir John Mordaunt did in East Anglia, and so earned the knighthood which he received on the morrow of the coronation. It was, too, his Protestant cousin (Sir) Nicholas Throckmorton whom he replaced as senior knight of the shire in the first Parliament of the reign; not surprisingly, he neither ‘stood for the true religion’ on this occasion against the government’s first measures towards restoring Catholicism nor opposed one of its bills in 1555. Brought on to the commission of the peace and granted several local offices, in the last year of the reign he was pricked sheriff: in this capacity he corresponded with the Privy Council about the surety to be taken from subsidy collectors. Under Elizabeth his religious conservatism told against him and he may have been removed from the bench after his inclusion, in the report of 1564 on the attitudes of the local justices, among ‘great letters [hinderers] of religion’.3

Fermor’s main interest throughout his life was his estates. These were augmented in 1556 by the Northamptonshire property of his uncle William Fermor, whose Oxfordshire lands, however, passed to Fermor’s younger brother Thomas. Fermor appears as an enterprising, indeed grasping, landowner. There had been trouble with neighbours over disputed property in Easton Neston before his father’s death, and when the matter went to arbitration he rejected the decision that he should retain the lands in question but give others in compensation, and persuaded his mother to refuse her consent. He was unscrupulous in his attempts to evict tenants of whom he disapproved, some of them probably because they had been given leases when the property was in the King’s hands. Early in Elizabeth’s reign he purchased the manor of Towcester, Northamptonshire, from Laurence Eaton, and other properties there of which one was later claimed by plaintiffs on the ground of defective title. At the same time as he acquired the hundred of Wimersley he broke the entail on his Dorset and Somerset lands in order to create life tenures. When his heir George married in 1570 Fermor conveyed his lands to William, 3rd Lord Vaux of Harrowden, Sir Walter Mildmay and others in order to entail the bulk of them and to make provision for his younger children. He died on to Dec. 1571 and was buried at Easton Neston. George Fermor had licence to enter on 17 June 1572.4

564 SPANO, Dr. Linda Joan M.D., M.H.Sc., B.Sc.N. With deep sadness the family announces the passing of our beloved Linda. Linda Joan Spano was born in Belleville, Ontario September 30th, 1948 and died on September, 10th 2006 following a two and a half year struggle with Ovarian cancer. Linda was a loved and respected Family Doctor, a talented artist and an excellent athlete. Her academic career was notable for her insatiable curiosity and superior research skills. Linda graduated with a Bachelor Of Nursing Science at the University of Western Ontario, a Masters degree in Health Science and a degree in Medicine at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario. She completed her postgraduate work at the University Hospital in London, Ontario. Linda developed an approach to private Family Practice with an emphasis on the care of patients as whole persons, with integrated physical, social, spiritual and psychological lives. During her years of active practice she continued her academic interests through teaching and research. Linda was highly regarded by the senior medical faculty at the University and was invited to develop a new course in The Determinants of Health which she taught to senior professors in UWO's Medical School. She was held in high esteem by her family medicine and specialist colleagues and much loved by her patients. Linda's strength, generosity, intelligence, kindness and courage, were all enlivened by a keen and intelligent sense of humour. She would not tolerate unkindness, dishonesty or injustice in herself or others. Left to mourn are her husband and loving companion, Dr. Michael Brennan, her mother Marjorie Spano, her sister, Lorie Corrie (John Kassies), her brother, Robert Spano, her stepchildren, Dawn Brennan, Nonie Brennan (Michael Peirce), and Keith Brennan, her grandchildren Jocelyn and Andrea Peirce, her nieces Kristine, Robin and Erin, her nephews, Jeffrey and Michael and their families.

593 The following note was done by Roland W. Abbott, his nephew:
Source: Descendants of Joseph West, compiled by Rex Gibbons 2010

"After their marriage, Theophilus and Alfreda moved to Carmanville South, and erected a home and premises there. From a very young age, he became interested in work and "on the sea" as a trade. At the age of 22 years, he owned a schooner, boats, and fishing gear, and he fished on the Labrador very successfully. The "sea" became part of him; he built the schooner S. T. W., and later skippered four other schooners.

"He was my skipper on a lengthy trip and I remember well that December morning in the early dawn, 1929, after a very anxious night of wind and stormy blizzard when he was 32 years old and I was 17, in the face of death as our schooner (Erema H) was about to crash onto the rocks of Inner Cat Island near Lumsden. He said, we'll be alright my son. Our motor boat was put over the rail and he said, now, jump over the rail at the first chance, which I did. We all got ashore safely and were taken care of by the good people of Lumsden.

"Uncle Theoph" was a man of many good qualities. He possessed good judgement, a keen sound sense, and was courageous and strong. He was a great sailor. I always respected his advice. He was also a carpenter. He did considerable work on the Salvation Army Citadel and designed the rostrum."

596 There are two birth records for a Maria Luffman Morgan born to Edmund and Fanny Morgan. 12 Sep 1857 in Brazils and 19 Dec 1860 in Petites. Perhaps the first child died and the next girl was renamed the same? It was a common practice throughout many families to reuse names of deceased children. No way to be completely sure until a death record is located however.

Both birth records are in Vital Statistics- Petites
Petites (Methodist)
Birth 1857-1891, Vol. 98

598 There are two records available for the marriage of Martin West. One indicates his wife's name as Elizabeth Whiteway and the says Mary.
Elizabeth is listed in the Newfoundland, Canada, Births, Marriages, and Deaths 1850-1949, Marriages 1891-1892 Volume 01
Mary is listed in the Newfoundland, Canada, Births, Marriages, and Deaths, 1757-1901, Fogo, Musgrave Harbour, Marriages 1874-1891, Vol. 84 of the Newfoundland Vital Statistics Collection.
Vital Statistics were copied from original records so it is possible there was an error and the name should be Elizabeth, not Mary however, it is unknown for sure.
Noted June 5, 2022 NP
Update: Mary Ann West is listed in the death records of Ladle Cove Church. noted Aug 2, 2024 NP

599 There was a John Joseph Kirby born July 7, 1879 and baptized July 11, 1879 parents John Kirby and JOHANNA Fahey.

Could this entry be this John Joseph? Maybe Johanna could have been mistaken for Jane? Also these records are transcripts with many illegible entries in the original so it's possible there were errors in transcription as well.

See record attached to this profile.
