Notes

BAYLY, LEWIS (d. 1631), bishop and devotional writer. The date and place of his birth are uncertain; the place was probably Carmarthen. because of the prevalence of the Bayly surname there and the particular reference to the town in his last will. He went to Exeter College, Oxford; became vicar of Shipston-on-Stour, Worcs., 1597, of Evesham, 1600, where he successfully agitated for a town charter and became headmaster of the grammar school. There followed several substantial promotions in the Church, both in Wales and in England - including a chaplaincy to the king and the treasurership of S. Paul’s Cathedral—till he was nominated bishop of Bangor in 1611. In 1611, most probably, appeared the first edition of his Practice of Piety, a book of devotion that became exceedingly popular: the 11th ed. appeared in 1619, the 71st in 1792; the 1st Welsh ed., translated by Rowland Vaughan of Caergai, came out in 1630—Yr Ymarfer o Dduwioldeb—followed by five more editions (up to 1730). He rather belied the Practice of Piety as bishop by taking unto himself an inordinate number of livings ‘in commendam’ and by promoting both his son John and his son-in-law Dr. William Hill from one good benefice to another, and that within short periods of time. At first he boldly challenged the power of Sir John Wynn of Gwydir, the most powerful layman in his diocese, especially over leases of Church lands, but soon found he had been too precipitate in his opposition, for Wynn’s hostility meant the disfavour of (the later) archbishop John Williams (q.v.) and the detective reports of Griffith Williams (1587?-1673) (q.v.), rector of Llanllechid, to whom the bishop sarcastically refers as ‘your honest parson Williams.’ Before long he adopted quite a different policy by becoming one of Sir John’s greatest friends, exerting all his influence to get the latter’s son returned as MP for Caernarvonshire against his rival, the younger John Griffith of Cefn Amwlch, Llyn (see the article on that family). The bishop had seriously underestimated the power of the Llyn faction, for they not only easily won the election of 1620, but carried the war into Court circles and the debates of Parliament. In Parliament, too, the bishop was guilty of poor tactics and great inconsistency; though chaplain to James I, he spoke indiscreet words against Roman Catholics and the Spanish match, and for a short time actually found himself within the walls of the Fleet prison; but having regained the King’s favour he became a target for Puritan attack in both Lords and Commons, charged with using unnecessarily strong words and promoting unworthy Incumbents: however, all the attacks — whether in the Star Chamber, or the Court of Chancery, or in Parliament—passed away harmlessly because of the royal favour. On the credit side are the Practice of Piety, his warm support for Dr. John Davies’s Dictionary, 1632, his services as member of the Council of the Marches, the sums of money he spent upon the repair of Bangor cathedral, and his supervision of his diocese, as specified in the apologia to king Charles I subscribed 7 April 1630, and as exemplified in his order, 1625, to put an end to the violent quarrels over pew-seats that had disgraced church life at Llanfairfechan. He d. 26 Oct. 1631. His second wife was Anna daughter of Sir Henry Bagenal of Castle .Newry in Ireland and Plas Newydd in Anglesey; his grandson EDWARD BAYLY succeeded to the Plas Newydd estate; and his grandson HENRY BAYLY took the name and arms of Paget (as 9th baron), and was the father of the 1st marquis of Anglesey.

Notes

Dick farmed alongside his father, cultivating and cropping the land, milking cows, feeding pigs and general farm work. Much time was spent with his father and his brother Dan, digging out rabbits which were a major problem.

On branching out on his own, Dick was set up on a dairy farm which his father purchased from Hutchisons … one hundred acres of "Knutsford Park", where he batched before his marriage to Dorothy King.

He cropped, and during the War grew flax and Navy beans as his War Effort. He moved to Drouin after the marriage of his son Noel, who with his wife and family has taken over the farm.

Dick and Dorothy have three sons, Noel, Rodney and Maurice and one daughter, Sue.

Notes

SARAH ELIZABETH POTTS, eighth child and second daughter. Being the second youngest child, Lizzie remained at home after leaving school. She became a devoted Christian and a great support to both Dad and Mum. She possessed a wonderful soprano voice. A visitor to Healesville, hearing her singing a solo in a Salvation Army open air meeting, immediately interviewed Dad and convinced him of the wonderful opportunities for a girl with such a singular voice. The outcome was that Lizzie won a four year scholarship free study under the unique teaching of Madame Darling at Allans Music Store, Collins St., Melbourne. With a trained voice she became an outstanding soprano vocalist. She was always placed as a soloist In the annual concert of students arranged by Madame Darling, and delighted that lady as one of her foremost and outstanding singers. She did not follow singing as a full time career, but dedicated her voice to God who had given it to her. She was welcomed as a guest artist at conferences of the Women's National League, the Women's Christian Temperance Union and various churches. She also gave freely of her gift of a golden voice at war rallies, farewells and welcome homes to soldiers of World War 1. She was also frequently engaged on national radio programs. Perhaps the greatest honour to come Lizzie's way was being on the same program and Platform in a concert organised by the Illustrious Dame Nellie Melba, the world's leading soprano at 1 time. One had to be exceptionally good to appear on the same P1 form as Melba. She opened a business at Ringwood during the war years. Sitting on the beach at Sandringham one day, a crochet needle penetrated her leg above the knee. Septic poison set in and she died at the age of 30 years from its effect, never having married. She was born 12-2-1898 and died 15-3-1928.
