Summary[edit]
DescriptionArkesden Church of St Mary - Richard and Mary Cutte monument inscription, in Essex, England.jpg |
English: Church of St Mary the Virgin at Arkesden, Essex, north-east wall of the south aisle, inscription and arms on canopy of free standing monument to Richard Cutte (d.1592) and his wife Mary Elrington (d.1594), a daughter of Edward Elrington of w:Theydon Bois in Essex, "Chief Butler of England" to King Edward VI, with recumbent effigies. The monument is brightly painted and restored, and has an entablature with inscriptions – supported by six octagonal columns – with obelisk pinnacles over each corner between which is a coat of arms within scrolling and topped by skulls. On the plinth face are five relief effigies of children.
HeraldryThe heraldry is very uncertain as little is known of the pedigree and marriages of this family (see below). Shield of 8 quarters, identified by Rev. T.J. Griffinhoofe, Vicar of Arkesden in 1869:
Text from Transactions of Essex Archaeology and History SocietyTransactions of Essex Archaeology and History Society, 1st Series, Volume 4 (1869), pp.25-43, esp pp.37-8[2]
Kneeling around this tomb are the figures of their four sons and two daughters each with an inscription as follows:
On the west side is the salutary warning to the living: As ye now are, so once were we As we now are, so shall ye be. When ye remember us, forget not yourselves. Shield at the head of Cutte's monument: Cutte: Argent, on a bend engrailed sable three plates, impaling Elrington: Argent, a fesse indented bezantée between six storks sable, 3 and 3 (usually given as five storks). On the south side of the monument quarterly of 8 (as listed above). Some account of the family of CutteHeraldic Visitation of Essex, 1558[3] (very brief, starts with Richard Cutte who married Mary Elrington, effigies represented in this monument) Text from Transactions of Essex Archaeology and History Society: In 1502 Sir John Cutte purchased this estate (Horham Hall in Essex) of whom (from whom) I do not find, but very probably of Richard Quadryng or his assigns. Sir John Cutte was Treasurer of the Household to King Hen. VIII. , and, according to Leland, built the present mansion. ' By indenture dated 17th March, 1514, Queen Catherine of Arragon, Consort of Hen. VIII., granted the Manor and Borough of Thaxted to Sir John Cutte, to hold during her life , under the rent of £57 7s. And by Letters Patent of King Hen. VIII. , dated 29 June following, he had a grant of the reversion of the same in fee- farm under the same rent. He died 4th April, 1520, and held not only the Manor and Borough of Thaxted, but also divers estates and parcels of land here and elsewhere. By Elizabeth his wife he left two sons, John and Henry. John, the elder son and suc cessor, was 13 years old when his father died. He married Lucy Browne, and died 1 July, 1528, leaving an only son, John, then aged 3 years. He was of Horham and Childersley, in Co. Cambridge, was Knighted, and served Sheriff of Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire in 1551. He died in 1555, leaving by Sibell, his wife, one son, John, then aged 10 years, and two daughters, Ursula and Elizabeth. He, too, was afterwards Knighted ; and so noted for his house keeping, that Queen Elizabeth sent to him the Spanish Ambassador, to be entertained during a sickness in London. But being more magnificent than prudent, by license dated 2nd April, 1599, he alienated the Manor and Borough of Thaxted and Spensers-fee to Thomas Kemp, Esq., in trust, who had before purchased of his father Coldham's fee, a reputed manor in this parish . He departed this life in 1615, and appears to have been the last of his family who possessed Horham . He had two wives. By Elizabeth, the first, daughter of Sir Arthur D'Arcy , he had a daughter Elizabeth, married to Sir HumphreyStafford ; and by the second, Margaret, daughter of William Brocket, he left an only son, John, AND OF THE FAMILY OF CUTTS . 31 afterwards a Knight. Sir John was of Childersley, and married first, Anne, daughter and co -heir of Sir Thomas Kemp, of Ollantye, Wye, Co. Kent, Kt. He married, secondly, Anne, daughter of Sir Weld, of Edmonton, and died in June 1646, leaving two sons, John and Henry. The latter died unmarried in 1661 . John, the elder, was created a Baronet 2 June, 1660, but dying unmarried at Saruin in 1670, the Horham and Childersley line became extinct. He gave his estates to Richard Cutts, of Arkesden, his collateral relation. I have followed out this line beyond the period when the family ceased to possess Horham, until its extinction : and as in pursuing my investigations I have found that the pedigree of Cutte or Cutts, as recorded by Morant, is very inaccurate and defective, the present seems an opportune occasion for correcting it ; and with that view an authenticated genealogy of the family, courteously contributed by G. H. Rogers-Harrison, Esq. , F.S.A., Windsor Herald, is appended.

Notes[edit]
This image might have been cropped to improve composition and/or optimized for white and colour balance and contrast. Please do not upload a modified image without consultation. Images are often JPEGs derived from RAW file format, and reprocessing JPEG files reduces quality. If you believe changes are required, and through discussion this appears appropriate, the author can upload an ammended substitute from the original source, thus maintaining quality. Need a file for hard copy publication?: Noise reduction, camera lens distortion correction, colour balance and sharpening workflow of camera-unsharpened RAW files have been judged through a calibrated HP Dreamcolor Z Display monitor. However, for print media this type of optimizing can often prove problematic depending on particular print output requirements. Where a RAW files exists, I can supply the original in native full size format for third party specific hard copy publication optimizing. Author contact: |
