Lineage.

This family was anciently seated on an estate called Ryland's Hill, at Bearley, in the parish of Suitterfield, in the county of Warwick. Of this estate the Rylands held possession for many centuries, and it finally passed into other hands in the year 1779, being then sold by Richard Ryland, esq. of London. The patrimony of the family appears to have been materially impaired by the active part which they took in the civil wars between CHARLES I. and his parliament.

The irretrievable loss of a pedigree which gave a genealogical detail during a period of nearly three hundred years, as well as of the registers of Bearley,† in which the name of the family was traced as far back as the year 1500, renders it difficult, with that precision and accuracy which are desirable, to notice the early descents in their proper connection. From documents, however, still extant, the long continued and uninterrupted possession of the property at Bearley is sufficiently evident. From these documents too, we become acquainted with several interesting facts, as, for example, that one of the Rylands married Susanna Perkes, of Bearley, who is known to have been of the Perkes, to one of whom, "Clement Perkes of the Hill," Shakspeare alludes in the "Second part of King Henry the Fourth,"

"Here lieth she whose heavenly worth
Conceived may be, but not set forth;
The best idea in her life

Of maid, of daughter, and of wife.
What you could wish in any one
Was hers in full perfection.
Think then how poor that man is left,
Who of such treasure is bereft!

She liv'd, she died, bemoan'd, belov'd Of men, of angels, God approv'd." "This is that Elizabeth, the much esteemed and beloved wife of R. Wingfield, esq. of the body to King James, and daughter of R. Ryland, esq. She lived thirty-six years; fourteen married, and in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.'' died praying 26th November, 1617. • Precious
