Pagination. Volume 1: [16], and [120] double leaves of genealogical tables; volume 2: [4], [92] double leaves of genealogical tables. Bound in early-19th-century russia, with marbled endpapers, upper cover detached and with worm trail, chipped and rubbed. Manuscript biographical notes and tables to approximately 300 pages, plus 7 tipped-in notes and a three-page manuscript index at end. Provenance: [1]. William Radclyffe (1770-1828), Rouge Croix Pursuivant, College of Arms, his armorial bookplate to verso of ffep. and manuscript notes to over 300 pages. [2]. William Noel-Hill, 3rd Baron Berwick of Attingham Park, Shropshire (1773-1842), with his bookplate (crest: On a chapeau gules, turned up ermine, an eagle, wings extended or, preying on a child proper, swaddled gules in a cradle, laced or. with motto beneath: "Sans changer") to pastedown. The book was sold at the Sotheby's sale of Lord Berwick's library (1843) where it was described as "Lot 954 Genealogię Inperatorum (sic), Regum, Ducum, Comitum, a Ritterhusio, with copious additions in MS. by Radcliffe Rouge Croix Tubingę, fol. 1664."1 It was bought by [3] Edward Smith-Stanley, 13th Earl of Derby (1775-1851), who has inscribed the ffep "Purchased by Boone May 1st. 1843 at Ld Berwick's Sale Lot 954 2l.2s. - for me Derby Knowsley." A second inscription records the book's new location at "Knowlsey Private Library/West Division/East Bookcase/Shelf 1 No. 7." Boone mentioned in the first inscription is probably the bookseller, William Boone (fl. 1825-1848) of 480 Strand, London and later 29 New Bond Street, London2. He is known to have purchased at least two other lots: "Lot 137 Banks, Thomas Dormant and Extinct Baronage, 4 vols. bds. 4to 1807-37" (for 1l. 11s), and "Lot 2896 Yorkshire :- Pedigrees and Arms of Families of Yorkshire, with drawings in trick, bound in russia, Manuscript. fol. n.d."3. Note: Radcliffe has numbered the pages inconsistently. To avoid any confusion, we have opted instead for referencing by continuous foliation. This artefact may well be considered an exhibit in an early-19th-century case centring on a forged pedigree by William Radclyffe, once Rouge Croix Pursuivant of the College of Arms. Radclyffe was the book's first inscribed owner, and the uses to which he put its blank pages are striking in light of his later (or, rather, contemporaneous) transgression. RISE AND DESCENT Radclyffe began as a shopkeeper and confectioner in Oxford Street between 1790 and 1795, when his sister's marriage to an elderly but wealthy man enabled him to retire from commerce and pursue an interest in genealogy and heraldry. Having gained access to the records of the College of Arms via an acquaintance, in 1801 he produced a pedigree deriving him from Anthony Radclyffe of Blanchard, Northumberland, and via this connection, establishing his descent from the Lords Derwentwater. In 1803 the Duke of Norfolk nominated him Rouge Croix Pursuivant, and he built a considerable reputation as a genealogist. Over a decade later, beginning in 1816, Radclyffe's pedigree, which had been registered at the College of Arms, was the subject first of doubts, then of an investigation. An entry in a parish register recording a marriage in 1640 involving one Rosamund Swyft, and upon which Radclyffe's pedigree chiefly hung was found to be forged, and the culprit identified as Radclyffe himself. He was fined and imprisoned, and surrendered his patent as Rouge Croix, although the disgrace that followed could not completely eclipse his reputation as a genealogist: after his death, the College of Arms approached his widow to request his manuscript collections, but this volume, despite its importance, seems to have escaped notice. Ritterhausen's book comprises a series of tabulated genealogies of earlier kings, emperors, and rulers, but do not directly touch upon Radclyffe's enquiries; his choice of Rittershausen's volume appears to have been driven by the quantity of blank pages that he can fill.
