APPENDIX I. clxi
It will be noticed that there is not any mention of a number of the House in the Diocese in this list. This may be due to two causes: (1) there was no vacancy in the headship, or (2) the house was an exempt house. But this hardly accounts for the absence of entries in the cases of those mentioned, and it can only be ascribed to this, that there must be some omissions from the Register.

APPENDIX III.
ARMS OF THE SEE OF WORCESTER.
THE arms of the See of Worcester are Argent, ten torteaux in pile, 4, 3, 2, 1.
The usual statement as to the way the See became entitled to these arms is that they were those of Bishop Giffard, and that in some way became the arms of the See. Such is the statement of Woodward, who says [1] "The arms of the See of Worcester are assumed from the personal arms of one of its Bishops. Bishop Giffard, 1268-1302, bore the arms, Argent, ten torteaux in pile". There is no evidence whatever that the Bishop did anything of the kind - the coat was not the coat borne by the Giffards. On the tomb of one of the Giffards, probably of Hugh, the Bishop's father, at Boyton, there is an effigy of a knight in armour on whose shield are these arms, Gules, three lions passant argent, with a label of five points [2]. It will be remembered that Bishop Godfrey erected a chantry at Boyton for his father, mother, and their issue [3], and therefore it would be likely that the tomb was erected in memory of the Bishop's father. As he was a younger branch of the Giffard family the label would be right, and it is most likely the Bishop had the family arms placed on the family monument. But the matter does not rest there. In two 12th-century rolls of arms (Harleian MSS. 6137 and 6589), which are printed in Archaelogia [4], and which for reasons there given are said to be of a date between
[1] Ecclesiastical Heraldry, 190. [2] See a picture of the tomb in Hoare's Wiltshire, I. 200. [3] Reg. p. 119. [4] Vol. xxxix. 380 and 418.
APPENDIX III. clxxxvii
1240-5 and 1300, the arms of John Giffard are given in both as, "Gules, three lions passant argent". The tomb and the two rolls of arms, all about the same date, that of Giffard's Episcopate, seem therefore to settle the matter that the arms of the Bishop's family were the three lions passant and not the ten torteaux.
Sir Richard Hoare goes on to say that the Bishop's family, "the Giffards of Boyton, were in later times represented by the Giffards of Weston-under-Edge, in Gloucestershire, who, in memory of the Bishop of Worcester, from whom they derived considerable property, assumed the arms of that See as their own, Argent, ten torteaux, 4, 3, 2 and 1 [1]". No authority is cited for this statement, but if it is correct, it shows that the usual statement as to the arms of the See being the arms of Bishop Godfrey Giffard is incorrect. The Worcester story rests on a passage in Habington, which has been copied by all writers since his time, and accepted as accurate. The passage [2] runs: " Godfrey Giffard, Lord Chancellor of England, succeeded in the Bishoprick of Worcester a man doubtless of great blood, and who raised (as is eommonly said) his family from almost perishing to their former reputation. Hence descended the Giffards of Weston in Gloucestershire, who, to testify this, give the arms of the Bishoprick of Worcester, being, Argent, charged with torteaux. Neither can any say that this noble prelate gave his arms to the Bishoprick of Worcester, as Sir Thomas of Hereford, surnamed de Cantilupe, to the Bishoprick of Hereford; for the arms of the Bishoprick and the Priory of Worcester are merely spiritual, the Torteaux signifying the Eucharist, whereunto the Priory had a quarter added, and thereon our Blessed Lady holding our Saviour in her arms".
Arms of the Priory of Worcester, now of the Dean and Chapter.
[1] Hoare's Wiltshire, I. 200.
[2] Habington II. 373, Worcestershire Historical Society's ed.
cxc APPENDIX III. In support of this charter it may be said that it appears from the Register [] that Lord Giffard of Brimpsfield married a daughter of John Nevill. Sir Richard Hoare also mentions that Godfrey had lands at Harnham. Assuming therefore that this charter is genuine and accurately printed, it makes it clear that an Alexander Giffard was the Bishop's brother, and probably he is the same person as the Alexander mentioned in the Roll of Arms. If Sir Richard Hoare is right, that he died without issue in the Bishop's lifetime, which he assumes from his not being mentioned in the Bishop's Will, it would appear that it was not the arms of the Giffard family which became the arms of the See, but the arms of a member of that family, who for some reason bore an independent coat, who died without issue, and whose arms in some way became used as the arms of the See. The Bishop, if Alexander was his brother and died after 1279, the year of Archbishop Walter's death, would be Alexander's heir. The drawing in the Register is under the year 1285.
This explanation that the arms of the Bishop's dead brother became the arms of the See of Worcester, although far from satisfactory, reconciles the two accounts. For it was not the arms of the Bishop's family, nor his own personal arms, that became the arms of the See, but the arms of a member of it who died without issue, so there was no one entitled to them. And the Bishop as heir having possibly more right to them than anyone else, used them as the arms of the See as opposed to his own personal arms. Hence arose the idea that the Bishop gave his arms to the See of Worcester, the arms being not his family arms but those of his dead brother. This therefore accounts for the Worcester legend. It may well be that the Giffards of Weston-sub-Edge adopted them as arms borne by one of their ancestors, or it may also be possible that they were descendants of Alexander and so entitled to use them.
Although the above explanation contains far too little evidence and too many assumptions to be at all satisfactory, yet on the materials as far as now known it is the best that can be given - it is at least better than the usual statement, that the arms of the S.se are the arms of Godfrey Giffard.

APPENDIX V.
LIST OF WORCESTER DIOCESAN REGISTERS, 1268-1559, HENRY III. TO ELIZABETH.
THERE are no Registers of those Bishops whose names are printed in italics. When the names of the Bishops are bracketed there are only fragments of the Register existing. If not otherwise stated the Registers are in one volume. The "Sede Vacante" Register extends from 1302 to 1435. Where the words "Sede Vacante" are not inserted between the names of the Bishops the Register for that vacancy is wanting.
The dates given for the commencement of the Epicopate are those of the consecration of the Bishop if consecrated to Worcester, or of the translation if translated to Worcester; as to the end of the Episcopate, the dates are those of translation if translated elsewhere, or of death, or resignation.
