John Kyrle
John Kyrle (22 May 1637 – 7 November 1724), known as "the Man of Ross", was an English philanthropist, remembered for his time in Ross-on-Wye in Herefordshire. == Education and legal background ==
Born in the parish of Dymock, Gloucestershire, he was the son of Walter Kyrle, a barrister and MP. The family had lived at Ross for many generations. His grandfather, James Kyrle of Walford Court, had been High Sheriff of Herefordshire and whose father, Walter, had spelled the surname Crull which had been a common surname among the Norman aristocracy〔Sabine Baring-Gould, M.A. Family Names and Their Story. Philadelphia: J.B. Lippincott Company, 1910. 354〕 that had dominated England and a name which gradually disappeared with the Anglo-French aristocracy's anglicisation.〔The consanguinity between ''Crull'' and ''Kyrle'' is shown through the Kyrle's coat of arms evolvement from some of the different Anglo-French Crull families in Herefordshire, found on page 93 of Thomas Dudley Fosbroke, M.A.F.A.S.'s Companion to the Wye Tour: Ariconensia; or Archeological Sketches of Ross, and Archenfield: Illustrative of the Campaigns of Caractacus; The Station Ariconium & with Other Matters (never before published). Printed by and for W. Farror. Sold by Messrs. Nichols, 25 Parliament Street and Messrs. Baldwin, Cradock and Joy, London, 1821〕 James Kyrle's wife, Ann, was the sister of Edmund Waller, the poet and her maternal uncle was the statesman John Hampden. John Kyrle was educated at Balliol College, Oxford,〔even today, in the 21st century, John Kyrle is still referred to as "the man" at Balliol where his sterling silver tankard is still in use〕 and studied Law, but did not qualify and, having succeeded to the family property looking over the market square at Ross, he lived there.
