_Lowth of Sawtrey: Robert Eden._--In the _Topographer and Genealogist_,
vol. ii p. 495., I find mention made of a monument at Cretingham in
Suffolk, to Margaret, wife of Richard Cornwallis, and daughter of Lowth of
Sawtrey, co. Hunts, who died in 1603. The arms are stated to
be--"Cornwallis and quarterings impaling Lowth and quarterings, Stearing,
Dade, Bacon, Rutter," &c. Will some of your correspondents give me a fuller
account of these quarterings, and of the pedigree of Lowth of Sawtrey, or
especially of that branch of it from which descended Robert Lowth, Bishop
successively of St. David's, Oxford, and London, who was born in 1710, and
died in 1787?
I should also be much obliged if any of your readers would give me any
information as to who were the parents, and what the pedigree, of the Rev.
Robert Eden, Prebendary of Winchester, who married Mary, sister of Bishop
Lowth: was he connected with the Auckland family, or with the Suffolk
family of Eden, lately mentioned in "N. & Q.?" The arms he bore were the
same as those of the former family--Gules, on a chevron between three garbs
or, banded vert, as many escallops sable.
