Burnley Grammer School, 1559-
Following the orders of Edward VI, in 1552, the Chantries were dissolved, closing the Chantry School in Burnley. In 1559 certain leading men of the Parish of Burnley urged the endowment of a Free Grammar School, with gifts of land and rents. On the 1 February 1559, the Habergham deed was sealed bringing into existence a new Grammar School for Burnley. John Towneley erected the first buildings for the school. The Towneley family, along with the Haydock, Habergham, Woodruff and Whitacre's, provided the first founders and governors of the school. The school has occupied various sites during its existence. During 1871 the Governors of the school agreed to allow the representatives of the Town Council and School Board to join them, in return for financial aid. This resulted in new school buildings on Bank Parade, opened in 1874. In 1959 the school moved once again to Ivy Bank, sharing its site with the Ivy Bank High School for Girls. The High School, Ormerod Road, was opened under the management of the Higher Education Committee, in September 1909, on the premises of the Technical Institute.

Studied at one of the English Colleges in the Low countries. Brothers studied at Douai University, Douai, France. Catholic
Bought back Towneley Hall in 1661 by selling the families home at Nocton in Lincolnshire. Date: 30 Jan 1706/07 Place: buried at Towneley Chapel, Burnley, England. He carried out extended meteorological measurements and improved the micrometer (for use in astronomical observations). He introduced Flamsteed to the micrometer. As an astronomer he perpetuated the tradition of observation established in that region earlier by Horrocks, Crabtree and Gascoigne. He also investigated capillary phenomena and the use of the barometer to measure altitudes.
Towneley was also the first person to make systematic measurements of rainfall, using his own gauge design that he described in great detail in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society. He collected rain in a tunnel twelve inches long, and fixed it to the roof of Towneley Hall. Rather than make separate measurements each day, he continually topped up a cylinder to give a running total, and so avoid multiplying small errors of measurement.
He began this experiment in 1677, recording up to three times a day for 26 years, while also recording temperature, wind and pressure. His measurements were the first systematic records to be kept, since when records have been taken almost continuously.

In these the Envoy wrote: "M. Towneley, who will have the honour of delivering my dispatches to you, is the man of most intelligence and prudence amongst those here with the Prince. You may question him on all subjects". Towneley reached Paris on 22 March. In the autumn of 1746 Towneley was awarded the Order of St Louis, which he wears in his portrait. (John's younger brother, Francis Towneley was executed in London as a traitor on 30 July 1746, for his part in the Jacobite Rebellion).

Francis Townley, Esquire of an honourable family in Lancashire, was Colonel of the Manchester Regiment, and one of the nine English gentlemen that suffered first upon Kennington Common, July 30th, 1746.
He behaved with conspicious zeal in the defence of Carlisle as a Colonel of the Manchester Regiment. There can be no doubt that had he been the governor the place would have held out to the very last, for when acquainted with the term of capitulation he "flew into a great passion with Colonel Hamilton, declaring that it would be better to die by the sword than fall into the hands of the damn Hanoverians." He had acquired great military experience while in the French army—a circumstance used to his disadvantage when he claimed to be a French officer under commission. His execution (by being hung, drawn and quartered) took place on Kennington Common on 30 July 1746. Towneley was one of the last persons to suffer that barbaric practice. It was ultimately abolished in England as a form of public punishment.

Landmarks of Tompkins County - Lansing Richard and Charles TOWNLEY, brothers, originally from New Jersey, reached this town in December, 1792, coming by way of Ithaca, and built a log cabin which they occupied first on Christmas day. Once settled in their cabin, Charles left his brother and family and returned to the Susquehanna, not far from Wilkesbarre, where they had lived four years after leaving New Jersey. Richard TOWNLEY was a man of superior native talents, and though not well educated, was an intelligent reader, closely observant, and became remarkably well informed. He learned surveying and practiced it throughout the county, was supervisor of Milton in 1802; justice of the peace in 1804; associate judge of Cayuga county; member of assembly ten years from 1804. As school commissioner he divided the town into districts and sold the public school lots. He was a presidential elector in 1816, and delegate to the State Constitutional Convention in 1821. He left a family of ten children at his death, which occurred in 1840. His descendants have been prominent in the town. Gravestone in East Lansing Cemetery gives death as 1/1/1840, "aged 75 years and 11 months"Birth year from "History by Mrs. C.W. Conger" coincides with gravestone dates. From "History by Mrs. C.W. Conger": "Richard and Charles Townley [brother] married sisters, Polly and Betty Lewis and together they left Newark reaching Wyoming Valley in the Spring of 1788. Here they remained cultivating the rich flat land in the summer, and hunting, fishing and trapping in the winter for three years. When a company of French immigrants offered high prices in gold for all the valley lands, the brothers sold out, loaded Richard's family into the ox cart that had borne them on their first removal, yoked the cattle that were steers then, now grown into fine oxen, before it, and started in the early fall to cut their way through the woods to the lake country. Reaching Ithaca [New York] they embarked in a punt and landed near Ladoga Park, Lansing on Cayuga Lake, December 18, 1792, The brothers had bought a land warrant covering the lot of which the Townley homestead is a part but as there were no improvements on the land, they took possession of a roofless log house, a mile to the west of it until a better shelter could be provided. The men spared no haste in building a house and the family moved into their new home on the 25th, eating their Christmas dinner at home. Charles returned to Wyoming in the spring for his family. James came later. Richard had three months schooling and for books he had a desk full of old letters which would be worth much to the family historian now. With these advantages he acquired an education of considerable importance in the rapidly growing country in a manner to be remembered with filial pride by his descendants. He was a member of the legislature, he was associate judge, he was nearly always town supervisor and was always the cultured liberal Christian gentleman, the trusted friend and the advisor of his fellow townspeople. He taught himself mathematics and was state surveyor for many years, an office which was both lucrative and honorable in those times. Attached to the soldiers warrant by virtue of which the Townley homestead is held is the signature of George Washington and then of Dewitt Clinton, the originator of the idea of the Erie Canal, and Daniel D. Tompkins the great financier of his day written opposite to the great state seal upon credentials issued to him to attest the confidence reposed in the intelligence and propriety of this ancestor of ours."
