The above list of Patrons of the living will show generally who 

 were the lords of the manor, when the Rectory fell vacant from 

 time to time: and the uninterrupted possession of the family of 

 Ernie through so long a period is very interesting and very remark- 

 able. It will be seen that the last Patrons and Rectors, though 

 bearing the names of Money and Money-Kyrle, inherited from the 

 Ernies ; and the connection between the names of Kirle and Ernie, 

 above a century-and-a-half ago, will appear from the following 

 extract which I made from the "Liber Regis" in the British 

 Museum.' 



• This Sir John Ernie was Chancellor of the Exchequer at the end of the reign of Charles II. Sir 

 John founded a widows' charity at Calne. He was one of the eighteen Privy Councillors who reoom- 

 mended King James to send the Bishops to the Tower. (Canon Jackson's Aubrey, p. 39.) 



+ The last male heir of the Ernie family, Sir Edward, died 1787, and the name has disappeared 

 from the county. Whetham belongs to the representative by female line : William Money inheriting 

 as son of the heir of Constantia Ernie ; it is still owned by Colonel Ernie Money-Kyrle,
