Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Edward King: Sixtieth Bishop of Lincoln; A Memoir When God forms a human life to do some appointed task, His preparatory action may be traced in the circumstances of hereditary descent not less clearly than in other provisions whether of Nature or of Grace. H. P. Liddon. The family of King is said to have originated in Westmorland, and to have migrated to Yorkshire before the beginning of the seventeenth century. The landed property which they acquired in the West Riding remained in their possession for over three hundred years. Robert King was Incumbent of Kirkby Malhamdale, and died there in 1621. In 1622 his son, Thomas King, built a house in the parish, which is now used as the Vicarage. This Thomas King had a son Robert, a grandson James, and a great-grandson Thomas, whose son James was Dean of Raphoe. Dean King had five sons, of whom the third, Walker (1751-1827) became Bishop of Rochester. Bishop Walker King was an intimate friend of Edmund Burke, an executor of his will, and editor of his works.
