    ....The imposing church of St Mary in the Dorset village of Beaminster contains two important monuments. The larger of the two monuments on the south wall commemorates George Strode who died in 1753 and was sculpted by Peter Scheemakers. The other monument is that to Thomas Strode, Sergeant at Law who died in 1698.

    Thomas was born in 1628, the son of Sir John Strode and his second wife Anne, the daughter of Sir John Wyndham of Orchard. The Strode family lived at Parnham, ... It passed into the hands of the Strode family in the reign of Henry VI when Richard Strode married Elizabeth Gerard and it remained in the family for three hundred years. Under the Strodes the estate flourished, not least because of their knack of marrying rich wives. In 1522 Sir Robert Stroud married the daughter of Sir John Hody, Henry VIII's Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer and her considerable fortune helped him to rebuild Parnham.

    ... Sir John Strode had acquired from the Cheverell family the estate of Chantmarle, about ten miles to the east of Beaminster in the parish of Cattistock, and built a new house there in 1612. He was a lawyer by profession and gained a reputation as ‘an honest, trusty, learned, religious gentleman’. He was Recorder for Bridport in 1614 and MP for that borough in 1621 and 1625. Like so many of his fellow-landowners he was torn between loyalty to his monarch and his sense of what was just and right. He was then approaching his eightieth year and so beyond military age, but he moved to Oxford to support the Royal cause with legal and financial help, leaving his wife in charge of the Parnham and Chantmarle estates....

    JOHN LORD SCROPE, OF UPSAL.
    He was summoned to Parliament from 7th January, 4 Henry VI. 1426, to 26th May, 33 Henry VI. 1455, and on the 26th February, in the 10th year of that reign, 1432, was constituted Treasurer of the King's Exchequer. Dugdale states, that he died November 15th, 34 Henry VI. 1455, which is followed by Blore in his elaborate pedigree of this family in the History of Rutland. Seger, in his MS. Baronage, however, fixes his death on the 15th November, 37 Henry VI. 1438, but from Cottonian MSS. Claudius C.vin. it appears, that Thomas le Scrope was found son and heir of John Lord Scrope of Masham, 34 Henry VI. which corroborates Dugdale's account.

    • ... The contradictory pedigrees of the descendants of this Lord Scrope will be noticed in notes to the other wills of the family, and it is only necessary to remark here that the clause in the codicil to his testament renders it nearly certain that it was his son Thomas who married the daughter of Lord Greystock, and which Blore states to have been the case.


    Will of John Scrope, Knight, Lord of Upsal, 1st July, 29th Henry VI. 1451.

    My body to be buried in a new tomb made for me and Lady Elizabeth, my wife, in the Chapel of St. Stephen, commonly called Scrope's Chapel, within the Cathedral Church of St. Peter at York; ...John my son and heir, Thomas my younger son, and Master William le Scrope my brother, my executors.
    CODICIL TO THE SAID WILL. Dated March 18th, 1453. To Alianore, my daughter, ... to John, son and heir of Henry Lord Scrope, of Bolton, ... and whereas John, my son, whom I appointed in my will to be one of my executors, has departed this life, ... that if before my death, Thomas, my son, marry the daughter of the Lord Greystock, ...

    1756 Ipswich Journal: Mrs. Burchett, widow of the late Hon. John Burchett, Esq; Secretary of the Admiralty, and Daughter of the late Sir John Robinson of Denston Hall in Suffolk.(Isabella?)

    In 1703, with Elwes, he(John Robinson d 1704) successfully petitioned for a pardon for his eldest son, John, ‘a volunteer on board the late King’s ship Rochester’ who had been convicted of the manslaughter of an innkeeper at Deal.

    According to the King's Books, made in 1534 by the order of Henry VIII, with a view to obtaining a correct return of ecclesiastical revenues, the clear annual value was £22 8s. 7d. Upon the dissolution of monasteries in 1548, Sir Thomas Smith, Knt., and John Smith, appear to have obtained a grant of the same, and it has since passed with the lordship. In the reign of Queen Elizabeth, it came into the possession of William Burd, who died in 1591. It was purchased of a William Burd, Esq., by Mr. Robinson, who died in 1609. Thence it descended to Lieut. General Robinson, a distinguished soldier, who married Rebecca, eldest daughter of Robert, Lord Clive.

    15 "History of Wiltshire":

    "From Thomas the estate of Roundway also possibly passed to Robert, one time Baron of the Exchequer and great-grandson of Edward of Manningford, who died in 1667 owning Roundway. The estate Roundway passed out of the family for two generations at Robert's death and was bought in 1705 by another Robert, a descendant of a younger brother. From this Robert the land passed to Edward the eldest son (of his second wife Jane Child), who married into the Richmond family. Their son Edward Richmond Nicholas, M.B., died 1770: a survey made before his death, possibly in 1753, shows his holdings scattered about the tithing in the open fields, in the village and in what is now Roundway Park. ...the Nicholas holdings passed by sale some time after 1770 when Edward Richmond had been succeeded in the Roundway estate by his son Robert, M.P. for Cricklade in 1784."

    ....Robert Nicholas, counsel on Colonel Penruddocke's trial, and afterwards Baron of the Exchequer, died owner of Ryndway in 1670. He left no son surviving. One of his daughters married Thomas Hulbert of Corsham: and their daughter Elizabeth marrying Brereton Boucher, Esq, of Barnesly, Co. Gloucester, carried the estate into that family. But in 1705 it was re-purchased by Robert Nicholas, Esq., Recorder of Devizes, descended from a younger brother of Robert the Baron of the Exchequer above mentioned. John Nicholas, the Baron's nephew, was Fellow of All Souls College Oxford in 1674. In 1706 Edward Nicholas of Manningford Braose held the manor of Potterne under the See.

    Robert Nicholas, Esq., the first Recorder of Devizes under Charles I.'s charter, was born at Ryndway 2nd March 1661 : was entered of Balliol College Oxford, and then of the Inner Temple. He married Jane only daughter of Mr. John Child, M.P. for Devizes, brother to Sir Francis Child the first banker. The Recorder died 7th January 1725, aged 64. The name of Edward Richmond Nicholas his grandson is found among the juvenile authors of the Musce Etonenses. He left Eton as Captain of the Commoners, and took a degree in Civil Law and Physic at Queen's College, Oxford. He died 1770. His son Robert Nicholas, Esq., M.P. for Cricklade (by petition) in 1784, was of Ashton Keynes, (where his grandfather Edward had married the daughter of Oliffe Richmond). He sold the Roundway estate about 1790 to Mr. Willy, M.P. for Devizes.

    19 ....After coming into their Merton estate the Harringtons seem to have resided partly at Merton (fn. 75) and partly at Ridlington. Margery survived her husband and died in 1658, when Merton passed to her son, Sir James Harrington. (fn. 76) In 1632 he had married Katherine, daughter of Sir Edmund Wright, Lord Mayor of London in 1640, and a Royalist throughout the Civil War-a fact which stood Lady Harrington in good stead after the Restoration, (fn. 77) when her husband, who was exempted from the general pardon issued at the Restoration, (fn. 78) had fled into exile. He died in hiding and his body is said to have been brought secretly to Merton and there buried without a tombstone. (fn.79)

    Sir James's widow, Katherine, petitioned for the restoration of Merton on the plea that she had not shared her husband's political views and that the Merton estate, worth about £600 a year, had been settled on her as a jointure and entailed upon her issue. (fn. 80) In October 1662 letters patent were grantedher putting the manor in the hands of trustees on payment of £700; (fn. 81)on her death in 1675 the estate passed to her eldest son, Sir Edmund Harrington. (fn. 82) There is no evidence that she resided at Merton during her husband's exile, and in 1665 the property was certainly leased. (fn. 83)

    Several attempts were made in the next half century to recover full possession, but in spite of wise marriages the Harringtons were unable to clear themselves from the financial embarrassments caused by Sir James's political adventures....

    20 ....Harpsfield was educated at Winchester College and studied canon and civil law in New College, Oxford receiving a BCL in 1543. In Oxford he became connected to the circle of Thomas More, of whom he later wrote a biography, ...With the more aggressive religious policies of the English Reformation following the accession of Edward VI in 1547, he left England in 1550 to pursue his studies in the Catholic University of Louvain....
    Upon the accession of Mary I in 1553, Harpsfield returned to England, took the degree of DCL at Oxford in 1554, and became Archdeacon of Canterbury in the same year, serving under Reginald Pole . He superintended hundreds of trials targeting lay Protestants in London, which resulted in punishments and intimidation (though not any charges under the revived Heresy Acts.
    Harpsfield defiantly opposed the new regime of Elizabeth I, opposing the election of Matthew Parker and refusing to subscribe to the Book of Common Prayer. At some point between 1559 and 1562, he was committed to Fleet Prison, together with his brother John Harpsfield, for his refusal to swear the Oath of Supremacy. He remained in prison until his release on health grounds in 1574, sixteen months before his death.

    William Parry Okeden, Esq., of Turnworth, Dorsetshire, is the representative of that branch of the Uvedale family, being descended from Elizabeth, sole daughter and heiress of George Uvedale, who married,. in 1598, William Okeden, Esq.(See pedigree.)

    Like Ellingham(q.v.) the Punchardon moiety of Harbridge passed to the Okedens, (fn. 33) and in 1604 William Okeden sold it to Thomas Worsley,(fn.34) who died seised in 1620,(fn.35)
    ...At his death in 1558, Henry having predeceased him, John Okeden left the manor to his grandson William son and heir of his son Philip. (fn.50) In 1604 William Okeden son of the last-named William sold the manors of North Ashley and Somerley to Sir William Dodington of Breamore, (fn. 51)

    25 ...The will of Sir John Audley, dated 12 January 1527 and proved 6 June 1532, indicates that his son, Richard, had predeceased him, leaving a son, John Audley. In 1531 Roger Townshend (d.1551), who had married Amy Brewse, the granddaughter of Sir Thomas Brewes (d. 17 June 1482) by his first wife, Margaret Calthorpe, sold the wardship of John Audley to Elizabeth de Vere (d.1537), Countess of Oxford, for £300, while keeping the wardship of Edmund Audley, John’s younger brother, for himself (see Moreton, pp. 6, 96,125). By the time Elizabeth (d.1542), widow of Thomas Blake, esquire, and the second wife of Sir John Audley (d. 18 April 1530) made her will on 30 April 1541, Richard Audley’s son, John Audley, appears to have died.

    26 ...William was born on 3rd March 1611 and Christened at St Andrew's, Holborn, London. His parents were William Dobson and Alice Barnes, who married at Allhallows Honey Lane, London, in 1605. William was one of around eight or nine children, the last of whom, Abraham, was born in 1623. William Sr was a 'Gentleman' of some money, but he appears to have wasted his estate, dying in 1626, and, as noted by the antiquarian author, John Aubrey, due to 'spending his estate luxuriously upon women, necessity forced his son William Dobson to be the most excellent painter England hath yet bred'.

    William Jr was apprenticed to William Peake, a Stationer, and later worked with German artist Francis Cleyn. By the early 1630s his apprenticeship had ended and he was possibly married, as there is a record of an 'Elizabeth Dobson, wife of William' buried at St Martin-in-the-Fields churchyard in 1634. Little is known of his works or life during this decade, and very few paintings have been identifed as his from this period. The IGI (International Genealogical Index) notes that a William Dobson married Judeth Sander on 18th December 1637, at St Bride Fleet St, London. No definite record of any children from this marriage has been found, but it is intriguing that the IGI also notes the Christening of a Katherin Dobson in 1639, born to 'William Dobson' and 'Judith'.

    By late 1641/early 1642, through circumstances that are unclear, William was in Oxford, the Royalist headquarters of King Charles I during the Civil War. He was employed as the official painter to the King, replacing the Flemish artist, Anthony van Dyck, who had died the previous year. ...Dobson's best works seem to have been undertaken during the years 1644/45, and the full and three-quarter length portraits are dated to this period. After 1645, the paintings are mainly head-and-shoulder works, using very thin paint and plain backgrounds. ..
    When Oxford finally fell to the Parliamentarians in 1646, William returned to his house in St Martin's Lane, London. Evidence suggest that at some point after this he was jailed for debts, and a 1695 comment concerning him would seem to support this, stating that he 'was somewhat loose and irregular in his way of Living.' Whatever the reason for his financial situation, on his release William returned to St Martin's Lane, dying there in 'great poverty' in October 1646. He was buried at St Martin-in-the-Fields. http://www.freewebs.com/dobsonart/biography.htm

    1488, Christopher, age 25 and more at the IPM of his father.

    Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society Transactions - Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society (Volume 23)
    ....At the north-east corner of the same chantry is the only other tomb of the Tropenells, and its identification has not, I believe, hitherto been established. It is that of Christopher (son of the above) and of his wife Anne, second daughter of Nicholas Carewe and Margaret his wife. This Margaret was daughter of Edward Langford, and formerly wife of John(?)Carant, and after the death of Carewe, of John(?)Twynyhoo. This lady, after her triple experience of matrimony, retired from the world as a religious member of the Cistercian nunnery of Tarant, Dorset; and in her will, bearing date July 21st, 1500, and proved March 4th, 1501, after arranging for her own burial at the Grey Friars, Reading, near the tomb which she made there over her father and mother, and providing masses, etc., for all her husbands, makes mention of Nicholas Carewe, her son, and of Ann Tropenell, her daughter, to whom she bequeaths "my coler of goold with panyers and flowers, my grettest herneys of goold, and my next best primer."

    The arms of Carewe are : "Or, three lions passant in pale, sable, armed and langued, gules "; and these are to be seen on the tomb, which may be thus shortly described. It is of smaller size than that of Thomas Tropenell, about 6 ft. long, but of the same character, and being in the angle of the building only two sides are visible. On the south or long side are three shields, namely: (1) Tropenell, (2) Tropenell impaling Carewe, (3) Carewe. At the west is the shield of Carewe alone. The identification of the tomb is further established from the following wills: - Christopher Tropenell, of Great Chafield, etc., whose will is dated March 5th, 16 H. VII. (1501), but which is without probate certificate - he died soon after -September 29th, 1503, - directed his body to be buried at Corsham, " in my father's chamber of our Lady in the north side of the chapel forth yenst 1 my father's tomb, in a tomb of marble, if that I die within 24 miles of Corsham, and of none iinfectious disease." There may be a little uncertainty as to whether he did die within the limits, and was buried here in the first instance. For in the will of " dame" Anne Tropenell, widow, late wife of Christopher Tropenell, Esq., deceased, dated December 19th, 6 H. VTII (1514), and proved October 23rd, 9 H. VIII. (1517), after providing for her own burial, "in the parish church of Corsham in the N. end of the altar in our Lady's chapel wherein the body of Thomas Tropenell father of the said Christopher lieth buried," towards the end she arranged for masses in the church, where the bones of her said husband " be or shall be buried, for his soul, my soul," etc. This clause, as also that giving directions for her own burial, may seem to indicate that the body of Christopher was not at Corsham when she made her will, and to contemplate a removal from some other church. However this may be, we can scarcely doubt that the remains of both Christopher and of dame Anne his widow were deposited under this second tomb."


    "Thomas Tropenell died in 1488 holding the manor of Great Chalfield of the Duchy of Lancaster as of the honour of Trowbridge, for the service (as it was said)of being constable of Trowbridge castle. (fn. 56) He was succeeded by his son Christopher, who died in 1503, leaving a son Thomas, a minor. (fn. 57) Part of the manor was assigned in dower to Anne, relict of Christopher. (fn. 58) In 1511, while still under age, Thomas Tropenell married Eleanor, daughter of Sir Thomas Englefield of Englefield (Berks.). (fn. 59) Thomas made proof of his age in 1519, and in 1523 granted the manor to Thomas Englefield, serjeant-at-law, for the performance of his will. (fn. 60) He died in 1547, having settled Great Chalfield upon himself, his wife, and their issue, with remainderto his sisters. (fn. 61) Giles son of Thomas succeeded hisfather and died still a minor in 1553.
