Dear MacFarlane's
From time to time I acquire rare historic
artifacts.

In my hands and offered for sale for the very

first time I have the Armorial Seal of the late W.
A. MacFarlane-Grieve, of Edenhall &
Impington Hall.
The seal itself is 47mm x 44mm [1 7/8" x 1
3/4"]and is made of solid bronze. The seal
features the Arms of MacFarlane surrounded
by the gentleman's initials, his MacFarlane
surname on a belt like ribbon which is tied by
buckle at the 6'o clock position. The seal bears
the stamp of Knights & Cottrell from whom it
was commissioned by W. A. MacFarlane. The
seal is in Extremely Fine condition with little or
no wear.
If you are interested in this artifact I can send
you a low-res image of the same for your
consideration?
Reginald William MacFarlane-Grieve, of
Impington Hall

The manor of IMPINGTON was given to Ely Abbey by Beorhtnoth, ealdorman of

Essex, in 991, though the gift may not have taken effect until 1006 or later. The half

Macfarlane-Grieve had bought it by 1894, when he moved to Impington. He died in
1917, being succeeded by his son R. W. Macfarlane-Grieve. In 1899 the father had
bought Christ's College's principal inclosure allotment, which adjoined his own land
on the north. When his son offered the estate for sale in 1921 it covered 460 a.
Chivers and Sons Ltd. bought it in 1926 and it remained in the possession of Chivers
Farms Ltd. in 1986.

The Secretary read the list of Members deceased since the last Annual Meeting:-
Honorary Fellow. R. W. MACFARLANE-GRIEVE, Penchrise Peel, Hawick.
(Life Member). Elected 1917

4 - Reginald survived WWI and did not die until 1934, he is buried in
Warwickshire. As Angus inherited the feudal baronies of Edenhall and Penchrise
from Reginald, I have assumed that the latter never married and had children.
