This ancient family deduces its descent
from Hardinge, a younger son of one of the
kings of Denmark, who came over to Eng-
land with William the Conqueror, and fought
at the battle of Hastings. His son,

Robert Fitzhardinge. obtained for his
fidelity to King Henry II. the Castle of
Berkeley, wrested from Roger de Berke-
ley, of Dursley, a partisan of Stephen, and
thereby became one of the feudal barons of
the realm. He married Eva, niece of Wil-
liam the Conqueror, and founded the mo-
nastery of St. Augustine, at Bristol, in the
year 1140, and was buried there in 1170.
He was s. by his eldest son,

Maurice de Berkeley, who strengthened
his tenure of Berkeley Castle, by marry-
ing, at the instigation of Henry II. Alice,
daughter and heiress of the ousted lord,
Roger de Berkeley, of Dursley.* By this
lady he had six sons, and was *. by the eldest,

Mu rice de Berkeley, who died without
issue, and was s. by his brother,

Thomas de Berkeley. This feudal lord
wedded Joane, daughter of Ralph de Somery,
Lord of Campden, in the county of Glouces-
ter, and niece of William Marshal, Earl of
Pembroke, and was *. at his decease, in
1243, by his son,

whom the king was shortly afterwards bar-
barously murdered. This baron m. Marga-

of the judges of the Court of King's Bench.
" As Sir Robert Berkeley," says Granger,
" lived in an age when the genius of the
government had a strong tendency to despo-
tism, when the prerogative had been exerted
upon almost every emergency, and when the
judges held their places during the pleasure
of the king, he, with eleven of his brethren,
gave his opinion for ship-money ; and, if we
may judge from the tenor of his conduct in
private life as well as on the bench, from
honest motives. For this decision he was im-
peached of high treason, and adjudged to
pay a fine of £20,000, to be deprived of his
office of judge, and rendered incapable of
holding any place, or receiving any honor
in the state or commonwealth : he was more-
over to be imprisoned in the Tower during
the pleasure of the House of Lords." Sir
Robert was afterwards plundered by the
parliament forces ; and a little before the
battle of Worcester, the Scotch Presbyteri-
ans, though engaged in the king's service,
retaining their ancient animosity, burnt his
house at Spetchley. He was thus forced to
convert the stables into a dwelling, and
there he resided with dignity on the wreck
of his fortune.* A splendid monument to



* The following account of Rowland Berkeley
and his son the judge, is transcribed from the
MS. of the elder Habingdon.

" I rank this reverend judge next unto Lords,
because as a judge he weareth often that title,
and in parliament is to assist in the house of ba-
rons, from one of the antientest of which barons,
(viz. the Lord Berkeley) he is descended ; for
James Lord Berkeley had by the Lady Isabell, one
of the two co-heirs of Thomas Mowbray, duke of
Norfolk, Thomas Berkeley his fourth son, who
had issue Richard Berkeley, his third son (who
sometime lived, and had a small freehold at Durs-
ley, in Gloucestershire) whose fourth son, Wm.
Berkeley, was father of Rowland Berkeley, father
of the judge, which said Rowland being the eighth
son of the said William, though extracted thus
from nobility, yet seemed in the world extenuated
for a while, until by God's blessing, and his own
industry, he became eminent in wealth and dig-
nity. My warrant for this pedigree I receive from
the best authority which England in matters of
honor affordeth.

" Now before I attende the judge to his rising
sunne, I will accompanie his father to his night of
death : whomme if I should commend because he
was my ancient friend, and left me not (where the
worlde forsooke me) in my stormy troubles, and
lastly, not onlv refused to make a prey of my lands,
being offered him, and lying most convenient foi
him, but alsoe instantly warned me to prevent my
ruine, it might be thought that, blinded with af-
fection, I were partial. Passing, therefore, from
my private particulars, to matters more public ;
he was a man of very good witt, which he fur-
nished with learning, initiate in Oxford, but
chiefly gained out of stolen hours, and hardly
spared from his continual business in his vocation,

his memory still remains in Spetchley
church, adorned with shields of the noble
families from which he was descended. He
wedded Elizabeth, daughter and co-heir of
Thomas Conyers, esq. of East Barnet, of
the family of Conyers, of Sokeborne, in the
county of Durham, by whom he left at his
decease, in 1656, an only son and successor,
Thomas Berkeley, esq. of Spetchley,
who wedded Anne, daughter of William
Darell, esq. of Scotney, in Sussex (des-
cended from a niece of Archbishop Chiche-



bv which course, joined with experience, and ob-
servations, growing to be of deep judgement, he
attained to be for government such a magistrate,
as that he gained love, respect, and obedience,
which, if the city of Worcester, where he lived
divers years, will not acknowledge, his often ser-
vice for them in parliament (where he shewed
himself their friend, and a good commonwealth's
man) will testifye for him. Neither was he con-
fined within the circle of this cittie, but being in
commission for the county, was an uncorrupt and
sedulous justice. I omit his worldly blessings
being abundant, and fairly ceasing by his death,
in a good old age, at his owne mansion at Spetch-
ley, where his sonne, the judge, hath erected a mo-
nument for him, and his mother, to whose funeral
having offered these ensignes, I will distribute
them to his children, and chiefly to the judge, who
though not the eldest yet the greatest, and inhe-
riting, with the rest, his father's wisdom, hath
surmounted him in learning, which hath beauti-
fied with oratory, and strengthened with argu-
ments his possession of the law, whereto, as also
to civill government his genius was so inclinable
as that after he had been many years achieffpilott in
stearing the helm of our countie, as one of
justices of the peace there, and which is rarely
precedented among others of his profession, car-
ried the staff of authority as sheriff. His majesty,
King Charles, advanced him first to his service in
place of one of the king's serjeants-at-law ; and
then as a justice of his royal bench, to determine
of the lives, lands, and goods of his subjects. —
Thus is he raised from a ship of our shire to be a
ruler in the great argosey of England, where al-
though his case is general, yet hath he still a par-
ticular love to his native county. Now here you
see him ascending to the noon-tide of fortune ;
let niv withered age never behold his declining,
but when his sunne must by revolution of time, be
set, I hope that leaving behind him an oder of
good fame, he will in the end obtain a day of eter-
nal light."
