THE GREAVES FAMILY OF
BEELEY, DERBYSHIRE, ENGLAND
GENERAL BACKGROUND OF THE
GREAVES FAMILY
Charles Bardsley in his English Surnames, 1873, says Greaves,
Graves, and Groves have the same origin.
A greave was a woodland avenue graved or cut out of the forest.
Lysons in his Magna Britannia (5th vol., pub. 1817) says, "The family
(Greaves of Derbyshire) took its name from a place called the Greaves or Greves
in the parish of Beeley, where they resided as early as the reign of Henry
III."
Burke's Commoners, 1838, says, "The family of Graves is of high
antiquity, its patriarch having passed into England in the train of the
Conqueror. Burke says that the family
of Greaves or Greves of Mosely, Worchestershire [gen. #236], "was founded
in England by one of the Companions in the arms of the Conqueror." In the grant of arms to Richard Graves of
Gloucester (the Mickleton family) last century, it says that the Gloucester
Graves were descended from Graves of Heyton, Yorkshire, "near which place
there is an hamlett written in ancient deeds Greava, Greva, La Greave, and
Greve, now called Greaves and Graves," which without doubt gave that
surname to the family.
Are we to infer that the family
gave its name to the places called Greaves or that they got their name from the
places? It was very unusual for a place
to get its name from that of its settlers.
Fully three fourths of the old landed families in England whose records
date back to before the fourteenth century, when surnames began to be common,
derive their family names from their places of settlement.
Burke goes on to say, "The
first of its members, however, of whom we possess any authentic record is -----
Les Greaves who was settled at Beeley and Greaves as early as the time of Henry
I (1100-1135), from which time until the end of the seventeenth century, his
descendants continued to reside there.
In 1664 the old hereditary estates at Beeley were sold to John, Earl of
Rutland, and the head of the family left Beeley and settled at Mayfield,
Staffordshire, where his descendants have ever since remained."
ANCESTRY OF JOHN GREAVES
(1540-1595) OF BEELEY
AND OTHER GREAVES FAMILIES,
POSSIBLY RELATED
The ancestry of John Graves is said
(in Graves-Miller Genealogy, by
Charles Miller Graves, 1989) to be: (1) John Grevis, b.c. 1175, (2) Hugo
Grevis, b.c. 1200, (3) William Grevis, b.c. 1230, (4) Egidrus Greves, b.c.
1290, m. Leticia ‑‑‑‑‑‑, b.c. 1295, (5)
Thomas Grevis, b.c. 1315, (6) Johannis Grevis, b.c. 1340, (7) John Greves, b.c.
1395, (8) William Greeves, b.c. 1445, m. Agnes ‑‑‑‑‑‑,
b.c. 1455, (9) John Greves, b. 1497, d. 1546, (10) John Greaves, b.c. 1540, d.
1595, m. Alice Boune, b.c. 1550.
This lineage is very similar to
that given by Richard Denno (R‑1), summarized on the chart on the next
page, except that the chart gives one more generation between William8
and John9 in the preceding list.
(Much of the following discussion is also from Richard Denno.)
The beginning of the account of the
Greaves family of Beeley is in the reign of the Plantagenet king of England,
Henry III. William Greaves, son of
Hugo, received grants of land from William of Chatsworth and the Abbott of
Beauchief.
Giles Greaves and his wife Leticia
inherited land in 1316, and granted land to their son Thomas in 1324.
Thomas used a seal on a document,
and the heraldic device is an eagle displayed.
This swift and powerful bird of prey is used by the Greaves family as a
symbol and is evidence in later years of the continuity of the family line.
All records of this period are in
Latin, and are legal documents, not parish registers. The will of William Greaves mentions his wife Agnes, son John,
and the chapel of St. John the Baptist, Beeley.

On the evidence of the heraldic
eagle, one prominent seventeenth century Greaves family is probably descended
from the Greaves family of Beeley. The
father of this distinguished family was Rev. John Greaves (1578-1616), rector
of Colemore, Hampshire. He married Sara
‑‑‑‑‑‑.
John Greaves (1602-1652) was his
eldest son, educated at Balliol College, Oxford, and was chosen professor of
geometry at Gresham College, London. He
toured the Middle East, collecting Arabic, Greek and Persian manuscripts, and
studied the Pyramids. He returned to
Oxford and was appointed to the 2nd Savilian professorship of astronomy. He was a friend to William Harvey, and after
his death his work aroused the praise of Edmond Halley.
Nicholas and Thomas Greaves, his
brothers, also studied at Oxford, gaining doctorates of divinity.
Sir Edward Greaves (1615-1680), the
youngest brother, was physician to Charles II, who conferred a baronetcy on him
in 1646.
Another family which may be related
to the Greaves family of Beeley is that of William Greaves (c. 1600-1663) of
Norton near Sheffield. In seven
generations of his descendants there were at least 13 ministers of the Gospel
of Jesus Christ. Some preached the Good
News in foreign lands, including the missionary Richard Pearson Greaves (c.
1825-1870) who died in Calcutta, India.
A partial lineage of his descendants is: William1 Greaves,
1600-1663, William2, 1630-1697, William3, 1662-1719,
Charles4, 1700-1773, George5, 1756-1837, Joseph6,
1793-1880, Richard Pearson7, 1825-1870.
Several other Graves families are
recorded, and although there is no documented evidence of connection with
Beeley, yet most Greaves families are in the counties of Lancashire, Yorkshire
and Cheshire, and may have migrated from Derbyshire centuries ago. Maybe even Mrs. Greaves of the Rutland Arms
Hotel who accidently invented the Bakewell Pudding is distantly related.
The map on the next page shows many
of the locations in the vicinity of Beeley where Greaves families lived in past
centuries and still live today.

GENERATION 1
John Greaves (1) was born about
1490 (or 1497) and died in 1546. He
married Joanna ‑‑‑‑‑‑. By the time their son John was 18 years old,
both his father and mother were buried in Beeley. These are the earliest records of Greaves family members in the
parish registers of Beeley, which were started in 1538 by command of King Henry
VIII.
At the bottom of this page is a
sketch of Beeley Hill Top, home of the Greaves family (owned and occupied in 1995
by the family of Mr. Rupert Turner, Beeley Hilltop, Matlock, Derbyshire DE4
2NW, England). On the next page is a
summary chart of some of the descendants of this family. (R‑1)

GENERATION 2
CHILDREN OF JOHN GREAVES (1) AND
JOANNA ------
John Greaves (2) was born about
1539-1540 and died in 1595 (or 1614 per R‑5). He married Alice Boune (or Bowne or Brown), daughter of William
Boune (or Brown) of Holme, Derbyshire, England. Holme at Bakewell is about 4 miles from Beeley. They lived at
Greaves. Alice was born about 1550 (not
likely if her son John was born about 1553 or 1560) and died in 1592.
John farmed at Beeley as a yoeman
but, on inheritance of his father’s wealth, purchased in 1560 the Manor of
Beeley from Nicholas Vaux, who was at that time in trouble for his adherence to
the Roman Catholic Church. The purchase
included a house, later called Beeley Hill Top, which overlooks Chatsworth
Park. (R‑1, R‑5)

GENERATION 3
CHILDREN OF JOHN GREAVES (2) AND
ALICE BOUNE
John Greaves (4) was born about
1553 or 1560 (this date is suspect, based on the reported birth dates of his
parents) and died in 1621 (how can this be if his will was proved in
1614?). He married Ellen (or Ellin) Slack
(or Slacke), daughter of John Slack of Brough, Derbyshire. Lysons says, "John Greaves in the reign
of Elizabeth was a joint purchaser of the manor of Beeley at which place they
continued to reside until about 1700."
Glover, in his History of
Derbyshire (ca. 1830) said Warner de Beelegh, and afterwards his son Serlo,
held Beeley Manor about the reign of Richard I, and after passing to the
Cheneys of Northamptonshire it came into the possession of Lord Vaux of
Harrowden, whose youngest son Nicholas held it in the right of his mother and
in 1560 sold it to the family of Greaves who had been settled at the Greaves
from the time of Henry III. In 1687,
the Greaves family sold it to the Saviles who lived at the Hill Top, formerly
the Greaves. It was later the property
of the Duke of Devonshire.
John Greaves who married Ellen
Slack had from Dean and Capter of Lichfield a lease of tithes of Curborough,
Froggat, Stoke, Monsal Dale, and Longdon for the lives of himself and sons
John, Richard, and Edward at a rental of £1.18.0, together with a fine (MSS
pertaining to Dean of Lichfield).
John Greaves's will was proved in
1614 (Lichfield wills).

12. William Greaves, b. 1585, m. Jane

Brailsford, Derbyshire from 1607. He
and all his brothers were staunch royalists.
He was ejected from his living by the Parliament of 1646. John Crompton of Derby was appointed in his
place. A fifth part of the benefice, in
this case £15, was paid yearly by Crompton to Mrs. Greaves for the maintenance
of herself and her children. William
Greaves died before the Restoration, when Crompton was ejected (Cox's
Annals). William's wife was the
youngest daughter of Sir William Kniveton of Mercaston (created bart. in 1611),
descended from Sir Matthew de Kniveton (living at Bradley Hall, 1301- ).
Sir William Kniveton's wife was Matilda Rollesley, heiress of her father
John, descended from Henry de Rowlesley (time of Richard I). Sir William's grandson, Sir Arthur, was the
last of the family who succeeded to its splendid estates, lost all in the cause
of loyalty, was governor of Tutbury Castle, was fined so heavily he was obliged
to sell his estates.

GENERATION 4
CHILDREN OF JOHN GREAVES (4) AND
ELLEN SLACK
John Greaves (10) was born in 1581
and died in 1643 per R‑5. He
married Dorothy Alleyne (or Allen), daughter of George Alleyne or Allen of
Woodhouse and Barbara Vernon of Haddon.
Barbara was cousin and contemporary of Dorothy Vernon, the heroine in
the well known tradition of the elopement with Lord John Manners.
George Alleyne's ancestors are
mentioned in deeds as having been settled in Derbyshire in 1484. "Inquisition taken at Wirksworth 10
Aug. 11 Elizabeth (1569) before Andrew Haring, Eschetor after the death of
Thomas Alleyn, yoman - seised in fee of land in Chappell in le Ffrith worth £4-
of a moiety of the manor of Stanton Hall, of a messuage at Stanton and lands in
Stanton and Stanton Lyes worth £4 and of tithes at Byrchover worth £3- held of the
King as of his manors of Tutbury and Grafton.
Thomas died at Stanton Lyes 19 Sept. 1563 and George Alleyn was son and
heir and was 43 years of age (court of ward and Liveries)." This George was the father of George (d.
1598) and grandfather of Dorothy who married John Greaves.
Through his wife, John Greaves
became possessed of Stanton Woodhouse and other properties. He was an ardent Loyalist, and in Beeley
Manor House where he lived is still to be seen a finely carved Royal coat of
arms over the fireplace in one of the bedrooms of the picturesque old
house. (It is rumored that King James I
may actually have stayed in the house.)
The Revolutionary party deprived John Greaves of much of his property,
and he and his wife went to live at Stanton Woodhouse (as it was then
spelled). The last male representative
of the family of John Greaves died at Stanton Woodhouse in 1730. This ancient house is situated on a hillside
not far from Rowsley. It is approached
through a wood composed partly of fine Spanish chestnuts. Their overhanging boughs form a frame for
the low greystone house with its irregular gables, its porch and latticed
casements.
Near the porch a streamlet falls
into a stone basin 'round which ferns cluster.
On the right, farther up the hillside, are more old gabled buildings,
which appear larger than the dwellings and are used as stables. The house has a very quaint "old
world" appearance.
Nor does the inside belie this
impression. From the low arched porch,
a narrow, rather dark passage leads to a good sized but also low panelled hall,
opening on the right to a flight of the broad stone steps so often seen in old
Derbyshire houses. They lead to a
narrow walled garden from which the stables are reached. I think the plenishing of this hall must be
much the same as when Barbara Alleyn lived there. Three very long black oak tables surround the walls, some quaint
old oak chairs and oak stools, a round table, and a curiously carved
mantlepiece complete the furniture. On
the ground floor there is one quaint little panelled chamber, all white, with
two latticed casements looking different ways. Beyond the hall, a few winding
stone steps lead to the upper story on which are several panelled quaint rooms.
The front of the house looks towards the garden which is on the rather steep
hillside. Some very fine ancient yews,
just below the gravel walk, which is bordered by old fashioned flowers, shade a
narrow paved walk. Farther down the bank is a second avenue of yews; their
boughs overshadow another paved alley so completely that one can enjoy a walk
there in heavy rain without feeling the drops that patter on the branches. I am obliged to confess that it is probable
that additions have been made to the oldest parts of Stanton Woodhouse since
sturdy John Greaves went there with Dorothy Alleyne, but they are not
intrusive.
Stanton Woodhouse is now the
Derbyshire home of the Duke of Rutland.

Birchover. The Reliquary, vol. 6, 1866,
gives an elegy by Leonard Wheatcroft "upon the death of all the greatest
gentry in Darley Dale who loved hunting, hawking and several other games. The poet's view well known to you, to be too
true, and so adieu, by me Leo W 1672."
Each stanza is devoted to one of the family or individual, and the first
runs:
"As I on Oaker Hill one day
did stand
Viewing the world which I could not
command
I turned my face towd Berchore
(Birchover) partly west
To view where Greaves us't to have
their nest
But out alas I found they were all
gone
Not one was left to rest against a
stone."

STANTON WOODHOUSE
GENERATION 5
CHILDREN OF JOHN GREAVES (10)
AND DOROTHY ALLEYNE
John Greaves (17) was born about
1608 and died in 1673[1]. He apparently married Elizabeth Wood,
daughter of William Wood. He was the
oldest son and the successor to the estate.
Burke says nothing about him except that he had a son John who married
Ann Birch (a mistake for Birds which he repeated several times) and that he was
the father of William of Mayfield, Joseph of Ingleby, and George of London.
Mr. Swift has, however, an abstract
which states that John Greaves who married Ann Birds died without issue. His
will confirms this.
There is in Beeley Church a
flagstone occupying the S.E. angle of the belfrey floor bearing this
inscription: "This marble stone doth presse but not oppresse the body of
John Greaves of Greaves, Esq., who was always a true son of the Church of
England, merciful and charitable to the poor, patient and courageous in a
tedious sickness, and at length, being full of faith and hope, did exchange
this troublesome world for a better, the 13 Oct. 1694."
In the floor at the north aisle is
another flagstone with: "In norte lucrum, the remains of that excellent
woman Mrs. Ann Greaves, daughter of George Birds of Stanton Hall, gent, and
relict of John Greaves of Woodhouse, Esq., lie here interred, her better part
to blissful regions ascended the 25th May 1700. To whose pious memory this marble is dedicated by her brother Mr.
Thomas Birds."
The fact of the stone having been
placed here by her brother looks as if John Greaves did die without
children. If he left children, they
were sadly wanting in filial feeling.
If John Greaves did die without
children, who then were the Greaves of Mayfield descended from? Burke says the head of the family sold the
estate at Beeley and Stanton and settled at Mayfield. If so, why are the arms of the Mayfield family different from
those of Beeley?
The arms of Greaves of Greaves are:
Gules, an eagle displayed or, crowned argent.
The arms of Greaves of Mayfield are: per bend, gu. & vert, an eagle
displayed or.
Dugdale (visitation of Derby, 1662)
gives the following pedigree: John Graves of Graves, father of John Graves who
married dau. of William Wood and had John aged 18 in 1662, and George who
married and had 5 sons.
The last named John (aged 18) was
the one who married Ann Birds. The
family of Birds, Bird, Bride was of considerable standing in Co. Derby about
200 years ago, and they lived at Locko, Youlgreave, Ashford, Eyam, and other
places. Descendants of this once
opulent family are still living in Youlgreave and Matlock but are now only
working men. George Birds, father of
Ann, possessed half of the Manor of Stanton Hall. In 1604, George Bird (father or grandfather of above George) was
one of three churchwardens of Youlgreave.
In the civil wars the Greaves
family took the part of Charles I and, in consequences of their losses in it,
the old hereditary estates at Beeley were sold, and the head of the family
settled at Mayfield.
Children - Greaves
28. John Greaves, b.c. 1644, m. Ann Birds, d. 13

George Greaves (18) was born in
1612 per R‑5. He married Dorothy
Wagstaff. In Youlgrave registers is
Dorothy, daughter of George and Dorothy Greaves, baptized 20 Nov. 1640. It seems likely that the "head of the
family" (mentioned in the discussion of George's brother John) who settled
at Mayfield was a son of George, rather than of John.
On 1 Oct. 1649, John and George
Greaves with nine others presented a petition for repair of Baslow Bridge over
the Darwin. Baslow is about four miles
north of Beeley.
George had 5 sons, according to
Dugdale (visitation of Derby, 1662). It
seems probable that George named one of his sons William after his uncle
William, the rector of Brailsford, and that he was the William who settled at
Mayfield, Staffordshire, and married Margery Lees. Other children listed provided by R‑5.

Debank of Burton and Sarah Goring of Frodley.
Elizabeth Newton was born in 1743 in Burton on Trent, and died about

"The famous Col. Goring, the

marshall in the Prussian Service," was a kinsman of Sarah Goring, and Dr.
Greaves of Mayfield had in his possession a beautiful silver medal about the
size of half a crown but thicker, which was presented by Prince Edward to the
Colonel. On one side is the head of
Charles Edward; on the reverse an old "dead tree with a young one
springing up from its roots, with this inscription, 'Reverscet 1650'."
Of the same branch was George
Goring who "gallantly distinguished himself in the civil wars as 'General
Goring'. He retired to the Netherlands
and acquired fresh laurels as Lieut. Gen. of the King of Spain Army." (Burke)

in Venice about 1850. He lived in the
Palazzo Contarini, San Trovaso, Venice.
He died in 1869.
He married Ann Richards. She was born 24 Oct. 1806 in Chester,
England, and died 27 Aug. 1877 in Stockholm.
It appears that they had 11 children living in 1877.
Sources of the information about
this family include Burke’s Landed Gentry,
6th ed., 1882, “Greaves in Staffordshire”, and Austrian military records.
Ole Pein wrote an article, “John
Davies Mereweather and Ann Greaves”, published on pages 26-29, The Journal of the Bristol and Avon Family
History Society, no. 45, Autumn 1986.
According to this article: “North of Stockholm, a short walk from the
old toll houses, which still stand, there is a large cemetery. Entering through gate number 3 one will find
in an area called 12B, two tombstones with intriguing inscriptions. They read (in English):
Ann Greaves
Born at Chester
on the 24th of October 1806
Died at Rålambshof
on the 27th of August 1877
Into thine hand I commit
my spirit. Thou hast
redeemed me, O Lord, God
of truth
31st Ps. 5th v.
and
Here sleeps the sleep of death
John Davies Mereweather
Knight of the order of the crown of Italy
English chaplain at Venice
from 1855 to 1887
He was born in Bristol
on the 7th day of September 1816
and died in Venice
the 18th day of June 1896
31st Ps. 6th v.
Here, apparently, are buried first
an English lady, who died in Stockholm at the age of 70 and then, nineteen
years later, an English priest, who had died in Venice.
My investigations in the cemetery
archives revealed that Mrs. Greaves had come from Venice and that the grave
(No. 2760) had been arranged for her by her son-in-law, a lieutenant
Arfwedson. The Arfwedson family is well
documented and from printed sources I found out that the oldest known ancestor
is Arfwed Andersson, a tradesman in Stockholm in the 1650’s.
Carl Edward Arfwedson, the
lieutenant in question, was born in 1847, son of Johan Edward Arfwedson and
Louise Adrienne De Geer. He graduated
from the military academy in 1869. He
then went to Venice where he met Adela Helena Greaves. In 1871 they married. Adela was the daughter of George Frederick
Greaves and his wife Ann nee Richards.
She was born at Belgirate in 1847.
The young couple soon left Venice for Sweden, and Carl Edward Arfwedson
continued his military career in the Royal Life Dragoons.
Mr. Rolf Arfwedson, grandson of
Carl Edward and Adela, has been kind enough to provide me with much
information....
Mrs. Greaves’s daughter, Adela, and
son-in-law, Carl Edward Arfwedson, had left Venice for Sweden in 1871. After a lengthy correspondence it was
decided that Mrs. Greaves should visit them in Stockholm. She had doubts about the journey and sought
the advice of Mereweather, chaplain, neighbour and friend of the family. He encouraged her to go. In the beginning of August 1877 she arrived
in Stockholm and installed herself at Rålambshof, the summer house rented by
her daughter. However, a bad cold
developed into pneumonia, and Ann Greaves, nee Richards, died on 27 August
1877. She was buried three days later.” (R‑2)
