26 RUDHALL, HEREFORDSHIRE. 



several people, and particularly for his relation Roger Vaughan, 

 of Bretherden, Esq. for whom he paid 1000/. He was very free 

 from vice. He had issue one son (myself), Herbert Rudhall 

 Westfaling, and four daughters, two died very young, and two 

 are now living. Anne, the eldest, married Mr. Wiseman, of 

 London, surgeon, and Lucy, the youngest, married John Tryst, 

 of the city of Hereford, Esq., descended of a good family in the 

 county of Northampton; his father being a younger brother of 

 Mr. Tryste, of Medford, in that county, married the sole daughter 

 and heiress of Dr. Skinner, of this county, and settled in this 

 county." 



In addition to this I have been favoured by Mrs. Mary Hill, 

 descended from John Barnes, of Hartleton, before mentioned, 

 with the following : — 



" William Rudhall was the last male descendant of the Rud- 

 halls. He died abroad, and his property came amongst his seven 

 sisters ; Frances, Mrs. Westfaling, inheriting four shares of it 

 with the mansion house, as the eldest sister. The six other 

 daughters were as follows : — Lady Pye, of St. Helen's, in the 

 parish of Marcle ; Mrs. Aubrey, of Clehonger, near Hereford ; 

 Mrs. Morgan, supposed of Tredegar, Monmouthshire; Mrs. 

 Broughton; Mrs. Price; Mrs. Mary Rudhall, who died single. 

 Several farms in the parish of Brampton and its neighbourhood, 

 near Ross, continue in the Aubrey family (in the female line) at 

 this present time. Herbert Rudhall Westfaling, the late Mrs. 

 Westfaling's grandfather, died in 1743. Mrs. Westfaling above- 

 mentioned, was the daughter of the Rev. James Westfaling, a 

 younger son of the aforesaid Herbert Rudhall Westfaling, 

 who had besides four other sons, namely, Herbert Rudhall, who 

 died a batchelor in 1773; Philip, who married a Miss Scud a- 

 more, of Kentchurch, but left no issue; Charles and Thomas, 

 both unmarried ; and two daughters, Anne and Mary, who 

 both died single. It is a singular circumstance that some of 

 the Rudhalls are still left (1832), but not a Westfaling in ex- 

 istence." 



I shall terminate this communication with a pedigree of the 

 Westfaling family, from the Visitation in the College of Arms, 

 dated "Rosse, 11th of September, 1683," and continued to the 

 present time. 



The arms were granted 24th Elizabeth, by Robert Cook, 

 Ciarencieux, to Herbert Westfaling, of Brightwell, in the county 

 of Oxford, Gentleman, and are azure, a cross or between four 

 caltraps of the 2nd. They were quartered with those of Rud- 

 hall, viz. Or on a bend azure, three Catherine wheels of the 

 first.
