Will Thomas Thynne Esquire Longbridge, Wiltshire 9 March 1680 21 February 1681
Sister Elizabeth Hall, brother in law, John Hall,
The surname of Thynne, according to Burke’s General Armoury, originated from an ancestor who resided at one of the Inns of Court and was called John of ‘th’ Inn’, hence the surname Thynne. Thomas was born in 1648, the only surviving son of Sir Thomas Thynne and his wife Stuarta. He was educated at Oxford and on the death of his uncle Sir James he inherited the estate of Longleat in Wiltshire. His nickname ‘Tom of Ten Thousand’ referred to his great wealth. He was Member of Parliament for Wiltshire and a favourite at the court of Charles II. In July 1681 he married a widow, Elizabeth, Countess of Ogle (d.1722) but she fled abroad and there were no children. By marrying her he incurred the jealousy of one of her suitors Count Karl Johann Konigsmark of Sweden. The Count hired Charles Borosky to kill Thynne and Charles and two other men (Vratz and Stern) waylaid his coach and fired into it. Thomas died the next day, 13 February 1682, and his embalmed body was buried in the Abbey on 9 March. His cousin Sir Thomas succeeded to his estates. Konigsmark escaped punishment by bribing the jury but the other three conspirators were hanged.
A long Latin inscription was written for the monument but the Dean of Westminster would not allow it to be inscribed. It was published in a history of the Abbey in 1715 and can be translated:
‘Thomas Thynne, Esq. Near this marble, destroyed by an early death, lies Thomas Thynne Esq. of Longleat in Wiltshire, a man not unequal to his illustrious birth, upon whom his family bestowed great capabilities, and Nature an even greater spirit. With the greatest enthusiasm he nourished and championed religion, (which had been appropriated by the corrupting influences of the Romans), and the laws of his country, and the liberty of its citizens, and, on many occasions, those deeds undertaken by his compatriots on behalf of their faith, as well as the majesty of the Britannic Empire. He took in marriage Elizabeth, Countess of Ogle, of the most ancient and most illustrious Percy family, daughter of the Duke of Northumberland and sole heir. For this cause tears: that supreme envy is ever the companion of supreme felicity; German, Swede and Pole conspired together under one head, names unworthy of this marble: two of whom were members of the guard of Charles [Karl], Count of Konigsmarck; alas, what a wicked crime did they set in motion, these men picked out for violence and murder. One single nation was not sufficient to carry this out; three armed men, seated on horseback, under cover of darkness, rose up against a lone, unarmed man, who was sitting in his carriage, suspecting no evil; four lead balls exploded in his vitals, and this same number opened up a way out for his departing spirit. But punishment followed hard upon the crime, the assassins being apprehended not without divine assistance; found guilty of the palpable crime which the German had ordered, the Pole had executed, and at which the Swede had been summoned to assist, they all perished at the hands of the hangman. Moreover, the Count of Konigsmarck himself was sought, not only as an accessory, but also as the instigator; he was brought back from shameful flight and underwent trial on a capital charge; but he escaped, cleared of the charge by the votes of the jurymen; two of the culprits, however, right up to their very deaths challenged the charge against him, while the third preferred to hold his peace.’
1654-1679: Sir Edward Bayntun (1618-1679), KB , Sheriff of Wiltshire in 1664. He married aged 43 the 18-year-old Stuarta Thynne (d. 1680), daughter of Sir Thomas Thynne, and sister of the Tom Thynne murdered at the connivance of Carl Johan Konigsmarck.[12] They were estranged by 1670.[13]

...Appears to have been a Baptist and a yeoman of substantial means. He owned land in Marston(inherited by his grandson, also Jonathon), Potterne, Rowde, Erlestoke ("Trimnells") and Seende "Henmarsh", bought from John and Alice Stokes. The lists of 'Feet of Fines' for Wiltshire has references to transactions involving property in 1651, 1662, 1669 and 1680, all in Erlestoke. His will, proved 6/1/1686 involved the sum of £73110 shillings and 6 pence and named his children and some of his grandchildren. The later children were not baptised....

....The complicated interrelationships among these people results from the small population of the villages around Erlestoke and the fact that they were Non-Conformists (Dissenters, mainly Baptists) and tended to stick together. Thus in a list of Wiltshire Dissenters Meeting House Certificates and Registers for 1689-1852 we have typically: "12 July 1698, Erlestoke, a dwelling house now vacant of Mr. Henry Axford (Baptist),John Axford, John Alldredge, Wiliam Ball." Other names apearing at later dates include Edwarde Froude, Thomas Axford, John George, Isaac Axford the Younger (Quaker - following his marriage), Isac Aford Junior, Edward Gye, Thomas Beavor, Stephen Jones, William Axford, John Alldredge, Ballard, John Blatch, Henry Whitaker,Jeffrey Whitaker, John Gauntlett, John Eales, , ... etc.
The certificates seem to have been neessary because the Established Church was very keen to get its tithes. Thus we find Isaac Axford (the above Quaker) complaining in the Great Book of Quaker Complaints that Isaac Axford,his father would come with his servants and take away wheat, etc. which was presumably given over to the Church as tithes so that he satisfied both the Quakers and the Church of England.

PAR 511/35/1/311 16 Apr 1828 Letter from Thomas Bright, Tenterden, [Kent] to the overseers of Winchelsea. We have sent the pay for E Watson's boy £1 12s 6d For order requiring Thomas Bright the younger to maintain the illegitimate son of Elizabeth Watson, 1826 see PAR 511/34/4/13.
PAR 511/35/1/325 14 Apr 1829
Letter from Thomas Bright the elder, Tenterden, [Kent] to David Laurence, Winchelsea, assistant overseer
I received your letter and have wrote to my son to inform him the contents, though I am afraid he will not be able to meet it as I understand he has been out of employ for some time. He is allowed to pay 2s 6d per week. Young men our way if they are trade or farmer's sons do not pay more than 2s but I expect you will hear from him soon. I should like it settled by paying a certain sum down at once. I think if it is not settled that way he is likely to leave this country as he has no work.

WINCHESTER, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30 1812
On the 20th ult. died, at Lyme Regis, Dorset, at the early age of 6 years, the eldest son of the late Major John Silver, of the 88th regiment of Foot, who fell at the battle of Busaco.
Major John Silver', 88th Foot, wounded at Busaco, 27 September 1810. Died of wounds.
Notes on Welington's Peninsular Regisments...
27th September 1810 (on the ridge at Busaco)
PUA 719
On the day of battle on the Busaco ridge Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Wallace has his men drawn up looking down .....aware that the enemy is below them in large numbers but that the terrain will restrict them to a narrow corridor of attack when they inevitably will emerge... With fragments of other Light companies and a body of Portuguese Line troops all joining in and even a couple of artillery pieces for good measure the outcome of the charge was never in doubt, down went the enemy almost to the bottom of the hills where only their own cannon-fire brought the pursuit to an end. Although it may sound on the surface that this fight had been one-sided that cannot have been the case, certainly not for 1/88th and their comrades of 1/45th, Lieutenant Henry Johnson had been killed as had 30 of the men, Major John Silver and Ensign Thomas Leonard had been mortally wounded and Major Robert McGregor, Captains George Bury, George Dansey, Henry McDermott, Lieutenants John Fitzpatrick, William Nickle and 94 of the men injured with one more not to be found as all settled back to hold their original positions....

The document below is the Prerogative Court of Canterbury copy of the will, dated 23 March 1670 and proved 15 February 1672, of Lady Mary Vere (1581-1671), widow of ... Horace Vere (1565-1635), Baron Vere of Tilbury, ...
According to The Dictionary of National Biography, Lady Mary Vere was the youngest daughter of Sir John Tracy (d. 1591) of Toddington, Gloucestershire, and his wife, Ann Throckmorton. At nineteen, she married William Hoby (d. 1602?) of Hailes, Gloucestershire, by whom she had two sons, Philip (d. 1617) and William (d. 1623). In November 1607 she married Sir Horace Vere, by whom she had five daughters. Her eldest daughter, Elizabeth (d. 1683), Mary (c.1611-1669) Catharine (b. 1612/13), Anne (1617/-1665) and Dorothy. Lady Mary Vere died on 25 December 1671 and was buried on 10 January 1672.
Will of Lady Mary Vere
In the name of God, Amen. I, Mary, Lady Vere, widow and relict of the right honourable Horace, Lord Vere, Baron of Tilbury, deceased,... Item, I give and bequeath unto my good daughter, Mrs Dorothy Wolstonholme.. Item, I give & bequeath the sum of fifty pounds of like money to my loving grandchild, the Lady Clinton, ....

MARY SCROPE (d. August 15, 1548)
Mary Scrope was one of the nine daughters of Sir Richard Scrope of Upsall, Yorkshire (d.1485) and Eleanor Washbourne (d.1505/6).... She was left a third part of £1000 for her dowry by her stepfather, Sir John Wyndham (d.1502). Mary married first, c.1509, Sir Edward Jerningham of Somerleyton, Suffolk (d.1515), by whom she had four sons and one daughter, Sir Henry (1509-1571), Ferdinand, Edward, Edmund, and Elizabeth. Her will mentions a daughter named Margaret and does not mention an Elizabeth, presenting me with a small mystery yet to be solved. In between lying-ins, she had an active career at court from 1509-1527 as one of Catherine of Aragon’s ladies. ... Mary Scrope’s second husband, to whom she was married by the beginning of 1532, was Sir William Kingston (by 1476-September 4, 1540), constable of the Tower from 1524 until his death. ..During the imprisonment of Anne Boleyn, Lady Kingston was called upon to hear Anne’s apology to Mary Tudor and deliver it to the king’s daughter after Anne’s execution.... David Loades, in his biography of Mary Tudor, says she was in charge of a joint household for Mary and Elizabeth from March 1538 until April 1539...She asked to be buried at Painswick, Gloucestershire with her second husband, but her memorial brass, dated 1557, is at Low Leyton, Essex, where she was apparently buried on September 4, 1548.
The will of the testatrix’ sister, Elizabeth (d.1537), Countess of Oxford, contains bequests to the testatrix and her second husband, Sir William Kingston (c.1476-1540):
Item, I give and bequeath to my brother, Sir William Kingston, knight, ...Item, I give and bequeath to my sister, Dame Mary, his wife, ...
Item, I give and bequeath to my sister, Dame Mary Kingston, and to my sister, Jane Brewes, ....
Strype records the following verses on a brass plate on the south wall of the old chancel of the Church of St Mary at Low Leyton commemorating Lady Mary Kingston:
If you will the truth have,
Here lieth in this grave,
Directly under this stone,
Good Lady Mary Kingston,
Who departed this life, the truth to say,
In the month of August, the twenty-fifth day,
And as I do well remember,
Was buried honourably the fourth day of September
The year of Our Lord reckoned truly
MVc forty and eight verily,
Whose yearly obit and anniversary
Is determined to be kept surely
At the cost of her son, Sir Henry Jerningham, truly,
Who was at this making
Of the Queen’s Guard chief captain.
(See Strype, John, A Survey of the Cities of London and Westminster, Appendix 1, Chapter 13, p. 115)
Will of Mary Kingston:

For the will of the testatrix’ mother, Eleanor (nee Washbourne) Scrope Wyndham (d.1505/6), see TNA PROB 11/15. The testatrix is not mentioned in her mother’s will, perhaps because her husband, Edmund de la Pole (1472?-1513), 8th Earl of Suffolk, was an outlawed exile at the time.
The testatrix had six sisters who lived to adulthood:
....Elizabeth (d.1537),Eleanor, Mary (d.1548)...Katherine,...Jane [Joan], ), Anne, a nun at Barking....

Will of Margaret Suffolk:
In the name of God, Amen.
