Notes about William Trotter

NOTE: Changed name to Trotter - his wife's mother's family - when heinherited the Horton estate, from his wife's cousin John Trotterwho died sp in 1856, [the fuller, and more accurate, story is inthe text of the Royal Licence] by Royal Licence on 3rd December1868 and then was granted an impartible quartering of Trotterand Brown but with a mark of distinction, the latter for hislifetime only. His children would have inherited these plus theBrown arms plus the Trotter arms from their mother. In HarleianSoc's Grantees of Arms 1687-1898.There is only one question on this heraldic inheritance. Didthe Welbanks have any arms? If not, were the Trotter armsinheritable by Mary Welbank from her mother, Anne Trotter?In 1863 he was living at Wimbledon, Surrey and in 1870 he was atPenshurst, Kent, both according to Alumni Oxoniensis for hissons._________________________________________________________His death certificate, No 485 on the Epsom register, says hedied on the 26th March 1887 at Horton Manor, Epsom, Surrey atthe age of 86 of "Heart disease Syncopi", informed by H ATrotter, daughter who was in attendance at the death and livedat Horton Manor, on 2nd April 1887. The registrar was JamesAndrews.__________________________________________________________TFPL, Nov 2002: I found him in James Balfour Paul's "Ordinary ofArms" published by Wm Green of Edinburgh in 1893. On p. 33 hegave:"Az. a chevron chequy arg. and sa. between three fleurs de lysof the second. WILLIAM BROWN OF HORTON PLACE, co. SURREY(1869)"This was a year after he had in fact had his name changed, byRoyal Licence organised by the English heralds, from Brown toTrotter (or, possibly to Trotter-Brown).I hope to follow up the Pedigree Register kept by the Lyonoffice to see what they recorded. The record was made on the8th Jan 1869 and is in Volume 8, folio 24 of the arms register,but nothing in the pedigree register; details to follow.TFPL, 14th December 2002: Details received and are in the ArmsBlazon Section.__________________________________________________________In the 1871 census he was living at Horton Manor, Epsom with hiswife, five daughters and seventeen servants. Additionally someother staff seem to have been in adjoining cottages.He was 70, a magistrate and landowner and born in TonbridgeWells, Kent._________________________________________________________
