376 Wilts Notes and Queries. 
Master Jeremiah Burgess, on rejoining his fellow townsmen, 
must, we cannot but think, have trodden the streets of Marlborough 
with a sense of more conscious dignity than neighbour Lewis. 
And long afterwards, when King James’s flight had left his subjects 
in peace, we may imagine how often the scenes before the judgment 
seat of the terrible Jeffereys were the theme of conversation around 
the Presbyterian hearths of Marlborough. In the municipal records 
of that town, Burgess’s name may be traced, associated with those of 
Gough, Merriman, Hawkes, Foster, and others, as the supporters 
of the Whig interest, far into the 18th century. The present 
representatives of the old family of Burgess, now generally write 
their name “Bruges.” J. WAYLEN. 
Wiltshire Mater and Queries, 
Wixtsuire During THE Civ, Wars; or, a Political, Military, 
and Domestic History of this County, during the Stuart controversy, 
embracing a period of one hundred years, that is to say, commen- 
cing with the outbreak of the war in 1640, and terminating with 
the rebellion of 1745. This, which has already, in part, appeared 
in the Wiltshire Independent, J. Waylen proposes to re-publish in a 
thick imperial octavo, with additions, and illustrated with numerous 
engravings; price not to exceed a guinea. Subscribers’ names to 
be sent to Mr. N. B. Randle, or Mr. H. Bull, of Devizes. In fur- 
therance of such a scheme, the loan of, or privilege of access to, 
original documents, such as warrants, inquisitions, parish entries, 
and private letters, will be esteemed a favour, and will be duly 
acknowledged. 
As the work will contain an elaborate account of the estates of 
the royalists in the county on the one hand, and lists of the Par- 
liament’s friends on the other ; it is conceived that the genealogist 
will here find many an unexplored field. The engrayings to be 
principally historical groups.
