N., who refers our Querist for particulars of this lady to the "Memoirs of the Rev. Dr. Samuel Pegge and his Family," in Nichols' _Literary Anecdotes of the Eighteenth Century_, vol. vi. pp. 224, 225, adds--"As the lady had no issue by Sir Edward Greene, it perhaps does not matter what his family was. "I see he was created a baronet 26th July, 1660, and died s. p. Dec. 1676; and that Courthope, in his _Extinct Baronetage_, calls his lady 'dau. of ---- Pegg,' not being aware of her importance as the mother of the Earl of Plymouth. This may be worth remarking." The Rev. T. Leman. Sir,--Your correspondent A.T. will find the information he requires respecting the Reverend Thomas Leman, of Bath, in the _Gentleman's Magazine_ for Oct. 1826, p. 373.; for Aug. 1828, p. 183.; and for Feb. 1829. He may also consult Britton's _Memoirs of the Life, Writings, and Character of Henry Hatcher_. G.M. A Memoir of the Rev. Thomas Leman will be found in Nichols's _Illustrations of Literature_, vol. vi. p. 435, _et seq._, comprising an enumeration of his writings in various county histories and other works of that character, and followed by eighteen letters addressed to Mr. Nicholls, J.N. Brewer, Esq., and the Rev. Dr. Samuel Parr. |
