MALTBY, Alford-Lincolnshire

 

Through the kindness of the Rev. R. E. H. Duke, we have received a photopraph of the old church at Maltby, Lincolnshire.  In a letter bearing the letterhead “Maltby Rectory,” Mr. Duke writes: “The name Maltby is derived from the Danish Commander Malte.”

It is probable that the Maltbys who were in England prior to the Norman conquest descend from this Danish officer, while another and quiet distinct branch, derived their descent from the Norman baron, de Malebisse, who accompanied William the Conqueror to England.

Mr. Duke adds: “There are no Maltbys on the Registers of this church.”

I.                   Henry Vice Maltby was born Sept. 15, 1811, at Evengton, Leicestershire and was christened at St. Martin’s Church, Leicester, Oct. 6, 1811.  He married Sarah Ann Dunkly on the first Sunday in November about 1835; probably at Leicester.  He died March 27th, 1882, at Aston, Birmingham, and was buried at Boldmere, Warwickshire.

KINSHIP

 

By Maude Townshend Maltby

(Written for the Maltby Association)

 

The little creatures of the wild—

Everyone—God calls His child,

And yet instills in each small mind

His age-old law of kind with kind.

 

Who knows but that the sturdy oak,

Through beech surrounded, feels a yoke

Of closer kinship with a tee which wears

In distant woods the leaves it bears?

 

So as from pine to pine tree tall

Greatings breathe the world around,

Let us send forth the rally call

“Love to our kin wherever found!”
