6.--Died at Norwich, in his 70th year, the Rev. William Grigson, M.A.,

for thirty-three years rector of Whinburgh and Westfield. A son of Mr.

Edward Harvey Grigson, of Saham Toney, he was educated at Corpus Christi

College, Cambridge, and married, in 1844, Margaret, third daughter of Mr.

James Hales, of Norwich. The first of his ancestors to settle in the

county was the Rev. William Grigson, M.A., rector of Hardingham, in 1584,

and since that period they have continued to reside in Norfolk, where

they once held a large extent of landed property. Mr. Grigson's

favourite studies were archaeology and genealogy. As an authority upon

the latter, his assistance was sought from all parts of the kingdom, and

his name will always be remembered in connection with the "Visitations of

Norfolk," of which work he was a joint editor.
