Paternal Family Tree: Lamplugh
On 23 Nov 1607 [his father] Christopher Lamplugh of Thwing in the East Riding of Yorkshire (age 21) and [his mother] Anne Roper (age 21) were married.
In 1615 Archbishop Thomas Lamplugh was born to Christopher Lamplugh of Thwing in the East Riding of Yorkshire (age 29) and Anne Roper (age 29).
In 1625 [his father] Christopher Lamplugh of Thwing in the East Riding of Yorkshire (age 39) died. His brother [his uncle] Thomas Lamplugh of Ribton in Cumberland (age 38) became the guardian of his son Archbishop Thomas Lamplugh (age 10).
In 1673 Archbishop Thomas Lamplugh (age 58) was appointed Dean of Rochester.
Evelyn's Diary. 26 Apr 1673. Dr. Lamplugh (age 58) preached at St. Martin's [Map] the Holy Sacrament following, which I partook of, upon obligation of the late Act of Parliament, enjoining everybody in office, civil or military, under penalty of £500, to receive it within one month before two authentic witnesses; being engrossed on parchment, to be afterward produced in the Court of Chancery, or some other Court of Record; which I did at the Chancery bar, as being one of the Council of Plantations and Trade; taking then also the oath of allegiance and supremacy, signing the clause in the said Act against Transubstantiation.
In 1676 Archbishop Thomas Lamplugh (age 61) was appointed Bishop of Exeter.
In 1688 Archbishop Thomas Lamplugh (age 73) was translated to Archbishop of York.
Evelyn's Diary. 12 Apr 1689. I went with the Bishop of St. Asaph (age 61) to visit my Lord of Canterbury (age 58) at Lambeth [Map], who had excused himself from officiating at the coronation, which was performed by the Bishop of London (age 57), assisted by the Archbishop of York (age 74). We had much private and free discourse with his Grace (age 58) concerning several things relating to the Church, there being now a bill of comprehension to be brought from the Lords to the Commons. I urged that when they went about to reform some particulars in the Liturgy, Church discipline, Canons, etc., the baptizing in private houses without necessity might be reformed, as likewise so frequent burials in churches; the one proceeding much from the pride of women, bringing that into custom which was only indulged in case of imminent danger, and out of necessity during the rebellion, and persecution of the clergy in our late civil wars; the other from the avarice of ministers, who, in some opulent parishes, made almost as much of permission to bury in the chancel and the church, as of their livings, and were paid with considerable advantage and gifts for baptizing in chambers. To this they heartily assented, and promised their endeavor to get it reformed, utterly disliking both practices as novel and indecent.
On 05 May 1691 Archbishop Thomas Lamplugh (age 76) died.
