Edward Hasted
HISTORIAN OF KENT,
To whom the County of Kent is so much indebted, was (as he himself tells us in the "Gentleman's Magazine," vol. 82), the son of Edward Hasted, of Hawley, barrister-at-law, and was descended on his father's side from the noble family of Clifford, and maternally from the Dingsleys of Woolverton, in the Isle of Wight. … In the latter part of his life he felt the pressure of adverse fortune, and dwelt some time in obscurity in the environs of London. A few years before his death he was presented by the Earl of Radnor to the Mastership of Corsham Hospital, in Wiltshire, where he died in 1812. "Mr. Hasted" (remarks the Editor of the "Gentleman's Magazine") "combined the classical attainments of a scholar, the refined and polished manners of a gentleman without affectation, and ​the piety of a sincere Christian without bigotry. His "History of Kent" will be a lasting record of his indefatigable researches into the history and antiquities of his native county. It is a work which will bear comparison with the valuable labours of Dugdale, Thoresby, Blomefield, Hutchins, Manning, and Nichols in the same department of literature." It was published in 4 vols., folio, between 1788 and 1799, but the labour of preparing it extended over a period of forty years. Mr. Hasted contributed a paper concerning Chestnut Trees to the "Philosophical Transactions," 1771.

Edward Pellew,
VISCOUNT EXMOUTH, ADMIRAL,
Though a Cornishman by descent, was a Kentish man by birth. He was born at Dover in 1757, and spent the earlier years of his life in that town. He entered the navy before he was fourteen, and his first cruise was in the Juno to take possession of the Falkland Islands. He first gained distinction by his conduct on board the Carlton schooner in the battle on Lake Champlain in 1776. During the war with France which began in 1793 he held very important commands, in all of which he achieved the most signal success. In recognition of his services he was raised to the rank of Admiral, and elevated to the Peerage by the title of Baron Exmouth. He held for some time the chief command on the East Indian station, and in 1816 was employed to enforce the terms dictated by the British Government against the Dey of Algiers. For this service he was created a Viscount, and on the death of Sir Thomas Duckworth, appointed to the chief command of the fleet at Plymouth, which he held till 1821. He died in January, 1833. He was not only a brave and skilful, but a high minded and philanthropic Edward Pellew ​officer, careful of the moral and physical needs of his men His personal courage was displayed on innumerable occasions, but never more conspicuously than in the rescue of the Button East Indiaman on the rocks near Plymouth. When no one could be induced by offers of reward to take a rope on board the sinking vessel, Pellew himself volunteered, and never left the wreck until the whole crew were saved.

Francis Thynne,
GENEALOGIST,
Was descended, according to Fuller, from Thom-at-the-Inne, of Stretton in Shropshire, but born in Kent, and educated at Tunbridge School, whence he went to Oxford. There "leaving the crabbedness of logic and philosophy," he took to the studies of history and genealogy, and became one of the Officers of Arms, by the title of Blanch Lyon, and afterwards Herald of Lancaster. He was the author of treatises on Ambassadors and their functions, on Government; and assisted Holinshed in the compilation of his Chronicle. His father, William Thynne, who was Clerk of the Kitchen to Henry VIII., was the first editor of Chaucer's Works. Francis's Notes on the same author were used by Speght in his edition. life died in 1611.

Practised for many years as a surgeon in the town of ​Feversham, and devoted himself to the study of the natural history and antiquities of the neighbourhood. His services in this respect were recognised by his election as a Fellow of the Antiquarian Society in 1755. He republished the old play of "Arden of Feversham" in 1770, with a preface, in which he gave "some reasons for its being the earliest dramatic work of Shakespeare." He also published a "History of the Town and Port of Feversham," and "An account of the more perfect plants growing spontaneously about Feversham, with a select view of the Fossils of Sheppy." He died in 1788.

ARCHBISHOP OF YORK,
Was a native of Lee Magna, where he was born in 1422. He was educated first at Oxford, then at Cambridge.

In 1529 he was made Chancellor of Salisbury, and two years later consecrated Archbishop of York. He died in 1544. He wrote several treatises in defence of the Catholic doctrines against Luther and Erasmus, the Manuscripts of which are preserved in the Harleian and Cottonian Libraries.

Elizabeth Barton,
The "Maid of Kent,"
Was born in 1509, perhaps at Aldington, where she was a domestic servant, about 1525, in the house of Thomas Cobb, steward of Archbishop Warham. Being seized with an illness, she became subject to nervous derangements, which developed a religious mania. During her hysterical convulsions she gave expression to strange cries which were taken as prophetic utterances, and she soon became popularly regarded as one inspired. This delusion was encouraged by the priests, who sought to use her as an agent for opposing the spread of Protestant doctrines. For this purpose they instructed her in the legends of the saints, and induced her to represent that she was in communication with the Virgin. A priest named Bocking became her confessor, and she was assigned a cell at St. Sepulchre at Canterbury. The story of her ultimate fate is matter of public history. (See "Froude," vols. 1 and 2.)
Being employed by the opponents of the King's divorce to denounce that project, she and her principal accomplices were put in prison, and their impostures exposed. Parliament adjudged them guilty of treason, ​and she was executed at Tyburn, with Bocking and four others, on 20th April, 1534.

Elizabeth Carter,
POET, ETC.
This lady, who has been styled "an ornament of her sex and an honour to her race" was born Dec. 16th, 1717, at Deal, where her father, was a minister. She early displayed a great desire for knowledge, and though naturally slow of apprehension, by unwearied perseverance she conquered all difficulties. She learned Greek and Latin from her father, and was so especially proficient in the former language, that Dr. Johnson said, concerning a celebrated scholar, that "he understood Greek better than anyone he knew except Elizabeth Carter." She also learned Hebrew, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Arabic. Her first essays at composition appeared in the Gentleman's Magazine under the signature of "Eliza." In 1738 she published a small volume of poems, and this was followed by translations from the French and Italian, and from the works of Epictetus. These productions, especially the last, made her acquainted with most of the literati of the day, including Johnson, Bishop Butler, Savage, Horace Walpole, Richardson, Reynolds, Burke, Hannah More, and Mrs. Vesey, the hostess of the Bas-Bleus. Miss Carter was never married, and lived to the age of eighty nine. Her memoirs were published by her nephew, the Rev. Montagu Pennington, in 1808, a perusal of which goes to show her as "one of the wisest of women and most devout of Christians."

Francis Piper, or Francis le Piper,
PORTRAIT PAINTER,
Was descended of a Walloon family settled in Kent. His father destined him for a learned profession; but his passion for drawing absorbed all his thoughts. He had a special propensity for drawing ugly faces, and suitable subjects found it dangerous to be in his company. He travelled over most parts of Europe, examining the various collections of pictures; and having a good estate, could afford to indulge his taste in this respect. He was a great admirer of Caracci, Rembrandt, and Heemskirk. He frequented the Mitre Tavern, in Stocks Market, London, and was there accustomed to exercise his art by adorning the rooms with his pictures. Many of the Grand Seignors, heads in Rycault's "History of the Turks" are engraved from his originals by Elder. He was also a successful modeller in wax in basso-relievo. He died in Aldermanbury in 1740, from the effect of unskilful bleeding on the part of a surgeon.

Was born at Tunstall in 1730, of which parish his father was rector. He was educated at Merchant Tailors' School and at Queen's College, Oxford, where, in conjunction with the Rev. Wm. Romaine, he edited "Calasio's Concordance." In 1748 he printed "Nomina et Insignia ​Gentilitia Nobilium Equitumque sub Edwardo primo Rege Militantuum," and edited an edition of "Dionysius Halicamassensis De Claris Rhetoribus"; but the work of most interest to Kentish men, of which he was the author, is "The History and Antiquities of Tunstall," his native parish, published in "Nichols's Bibliotheca Topographica Britannica" in 1780. He was the originator of the "Equitable Society for Assurance on Lives," on which subject he published several pamphlets. He died in 1778.
