Judith de Bruges – Passed away May 23 AS XL / 2005 at the age of 71 in the Barony of Terra Pomaria, Kingdom of An Tir. She was one of two first simultaneous inductees into the Order of the White Scroll of Terra Pomaria, the barony’s highest order, along with her lord husband Lionel the Woodworker of Antwerp. She was also the original holder of the Office of the Grete Boke and once occupied the office of Gold Key in the same place. Sadly, she is the first member of the Order of the White Scroll to pass away. Judith was an early contributor to the transformation of Terra Pomaria from shire to barony along with her lord husband who survives her. Her other awards and honors include membership in the Order of the Jambe de Lion, receipt of a Silver Apple for service in Terra Pomaria and Judith was given founding Baron Cesare the Merchant’s personal favor. She was well-known for having made the original blue cushions for the baron and baroness’s chairs circa AS XXVII / 1992; the cushions are still in use as of AS XLI / 2006 having served three landed barons and baronesses. Judith’s last two SCA appearances were at the 20/10 Anniversary Revel of Terra Pomaria and Ducal War both held in AS XXXVII / 2002. Mundanely, she was the mother of fellow SCAdians Finna Grimsdottir (aka Fionnghuala inghean Aoidh) and Jeane Chantal la Bouviere.
