- I wrote a bit of preliminary stuff for Diarmait just to get us moving and to give a flavor of what I think the relationship probably is. It can be edited as needed, of course. --JBforMarcus 06:55, 27 March 2006 (PST)
Marcus's Order
Marcus's order began in 1216, and in 1217 tried to spread itself through continental Europe, but notably, not England. Thus, it is likely that Marcus is amongst the very first Blackfriars to wander this green and pleasant land. Just so you know. :D --219.174.96.24 00:44, 27 March 2006 (PST)

- "A little before 1232, probably in obedience to an order of the provincial chapter held in 1230 at Oxford, a community of Dominican Friars settled in Shrewsbury. (fn. 1) Their earliest known benefactor was the king: he visited Shrewsbury in May 1232 and the friars secured shortly afterwards a grant of 30 oak trees and the stone which lay in the Severn under the bailey of Shrewsbury castle to build their church. (fn. 2) They were the first friars to reach Shropshire and were certainly welcomed with gifts by local benefactors, though traditions about their 'founders' current in the 16th century are confused and unreliable."
