    Children of Jeffrey and Margarett ( 4 named in the Will) Richard, Joseph, Elizabeth & ?.
    We know from the Will that Ralphe Aldredge & Elinor are the parents to John, Margarett & Thomas.

    We also know that Margarett Aldredge/Aldridge married Jeffrey Exton and their son was Joseph.

    From the Will of John Aldridge of Bratton (1712) we know that John Aldredge was the father of Grace.

    This would make Joseph Exton and Grace Aldredge/Aldridge cousins.

    Creator(s): Brown family of Aldbourne, Wiltshire

    According to some family recollections written by Henry Brown in about 1920, the Browns of Aldbourne can be traced in the Aldbourne parish registers to the later 17th century. The first to be mentioned is a John Brown, baptised in 1669, who was apparently the son of a Roger Brown who owned some property in Aldbourne. Henry Brown's grandfather and father lived at Lower Upham, co. Wilts. His father, William Brown, bought the Manor house and some adjoining land at Aldbourne in about 1812 and in 1840 took possession of Warren Farm, Aldbourne, where he lived after his marriage on 22 June 1841. When William Brown died on 17 May 1875, Aldbourne Farm and Warren Farm were taken over by his son, also named William, who transferred it to Henry Brown in 1908. Aldbourne Farm was apparently sold in 1904; Baydon Farm, and various other small plots of land in the Aldbourne area, had been sold earlier; Henry Brown remained at Warren Farm until his retirement in 1919, when it was sold.

    Aldbourne Farm: 390 acres; Baydon Farm: unknown; Warren Farm: 790 acres; owner occupier

    Thomas BROWN (eldest son) was born circa 1787. He was baptized on 28 May 1787 at Aldbourne, Wilts. He and Mary Anne NEATE obtained a marriage license on 19 May 1813 (He of p. of Aldbourne, bach, she of p. of St Michael, Bath, spinster, both over 21). He lived at Lower Upham, Aldbourne, Wilts, on 20 May 1813 (bachelor). He married Mary Anne NEATE, daughter of Thomas NEATE and Elizabeth HUGHES, on 20 May 1813 at St Michael, Bath, Somerset (by licence). He lived at Lower Upham, Aldbourne, Wilts, in 1814 (Gent - he was a constable of Selkley Hundred Court). He lived at Lower Upham, Aldbourne, Wilts, on 17 Mar 1814 (farmer). He was living on 31 Dec 1814. He lived at Lower Upham, Aldbourne, Wilts, on 31 Jul 1815 (farmer). Prob this person - he charged David Westall with stealing (with William Beckingham) some unthrashed white oats from his barn at Baydon on 28 May 1816. He was living on 12 May 1817. He lived at Lower Upham, Aldbourne, Wilts, on 23 Jul 1817 (farmer). He lived at Lower Upham, Aldbourne, Wilts, on 3 Jul 1818 (owned land at Baydon).

He lived at Lower Upham, Aldbourne, Wilts, on 5 Jul 1822 (farmer). He lived at Lower Upham, Aldbourne, Wilts, on 25 Apr 1824 (farmer). He left Lower Upham and took a tenancy of Burderop and Hodson Field Farms from Thomas Calley on 25 Mar 1825 at £1000 a year. The lease was renewed at £1100 a year in 1838, and he remained there until 1844, when his son Thomas Pearce Brown took over the tenancy. Burderop Farm consisted of 460 acres arable, 310 acres down and 92 acres pasture with the house and garden etc. Hodson Field Farm was 120 acres of arable land. Burderop Farms had been let to John and Richard Canning in 1798. He lived at Burderop Farm, Chisledon, Wilts, on 4 Oct 1826 (yeoman). He was living on 15 Jan 1828. He witnessed the marriage of William NASH and Mary Anne BROWN on 28 Feb 1828 at Compton, Berks. He was living on 25 Sep 1828. In about 1829 Thomas Brown's landlord Thomas Calley let Burderop Park to Major Astley, who wrote many letters to J R Mullings, the solicitor acting as agent, to complain about the state of disrepair of the house and various other matters. He had a particular fury about anything which interfered with the game on the estate, and accused Thomas Brown of coursing over his farm (all game rights were reserved to the landlord), and of keeping a pack of cur dogs which he used to hunt. On 27 Nov 1829 he wrote that "notwithstanding Farmer Brown's assertions to the contrary, I beg to say that he did beat part of his Farm, and he did kill a Hare on that Farm, on the day that I mentioned to you, it was a thick Fog, and I suppose he thought he should not be seen, he also keeps a couple of Curs that are continually hunting the plantations round the House, in short he has done all in his power to annoy me, ever since I have been at Burderop." He and Sarah CROWDY obtained a marriage license on 28 Oct 1831 (He of Chiseldon, widower; she of Swindon, spinster). He lived at Chiseldon, Wilts, on 1 Nov 1831 (widower). He married Sarah CROWDY, daughter of James CROWDY and Elizabeth Henrietta MORSE, on 1 Nov 1831 at Christ Church, Swindon, Wilts (by licence, married by Anthony Crowdy). He lived at Burderop, Chiseldon, Wilts, circa 1832 (owned land at Chipping Lambourn). There is a short and uninteresting letter from him to J R Mullings dated 27 Feb 1832 in the Wiltshire Record Office concerning felling some trees at Burderop. He was a subscriber to the Wootton Bassett hiring fair when it started in 1836. His will mentions a marriage settlement. He lived at Burderop on 21 May 1837 (Gent). He won a prize for his sheep at the Wootton Bassett show on 12 Dec 1837. He lived at Burderop, Wilts, on 2 Feb 1838 (Esq).

His son Thomas Pearce Brown took over the tenancy of Burderop Farm on 25 Mar 1844. Gentleman on 18 Sep 1845. He left a will on 7 Oct 1845 at Caversham, Oxon (Gent). He wrote a codicil on 7 Aug 1846. He leased Grove Farm and Tanner's Farm, and also owned the freehold of a house and 100 acres at Toker's Green, Caversham, recently bought from the estate of John Stevens. He also owned farms and land at Baydon, in the parish of Ramsbury, houses etc. at Langford, Berks, the Hare & Hounds Inn at Chipping Lambourne, Berks, a house at Wootton Bassett, bought from William Cripps and in the occupation of John Gardner, and another house at Copped Hall in the parish of Wootton Bassett with about 20 acres, in the occupation of Mary Mills, widow. He died on 17 Aug 1846 at his son's house at Burderop, Chisledon, Wilts (of Caversham, Oxon, Gent, after a long and painful illness "borne with great fortitude and truly Christian resignation". The cause of death was heart disease of many years standing, attacks of acute rheumatism, etc). According to the death notice in the newspapers "his high and manly character secured the respect and esteem of all who knew him; to his family and relations he was especially endeared by his kind and affectionate dispostion, and the agricultural labourer will never cease to preserve a grateful recollection of a benefactor as prompt to relieve their necessities as he was habitually watchful in promoting their truest interests." He was buried on 21 Aug 1846 at Chisledon, Wilts. His estate was proved on 7 Nov 1846.

    Confused with Judge Robert Nicholas eg:
    1 The Dictionary of National Biography again incorrectly gives him (Judge Robert Nicholas) a son Oliver, afterwards knighted; and a daughter Catherine, married to Sir Thomas Brodrick, of Wandsworth, ancestor of Lord Midleton and the present Editor of Wilts IV. But these belonged to a younger branch of the family, and were children of another Robert Nicholas, of Manningford Bruce, by Jane, daughter of Nicholas St. John, of Lydiard Tregoze, and were contemporary with the Judge . The marriage of Sir Thomas Brodrick having taken place at St. Mary le Strand, London, on the 17th August 1622, when the Judge was scarcely 27 years old.

    CROSBY PLACE, BY PHILIP NORMAN, F.S.A., LL.D.,WITH AN ARCHITECTU- RAL DESCRIPTION BY W. D. CAROE, F.S.A. BEING THE NINTH MONO- GRAPH OF THE COMMITTEE FOR THE SURVEY OF THE MEMORIALS OF GREATER LONDON.
    ..The next on the list of those on whom the property had been entailed was Germain Cioll, of whose nationality Lmi doubtful. It has been suggested in Burgon's "Life of Gresham"that he was of Spanish origin and that he came over to England in the train of Philip IL, but he was evidently here much earlier. He married at the church ot St. Michael, Bassishaw, February 20th, 1554, and held the office of churchwarden of St. Helen's in i 566, which denotes that he was then at least a Protestant. There is an assignment of Crosby Place and its appurtenances to him and hiswitc Cicely, liy Peter Crowle, dated on the last day of February 1560, and they came into full possession of the property in June 1561, alter nominal tenure of the fee simple by James* and Thomas Altham during the earlier months of that year, a friendly arrangement, no doubt, the reasons for which are not now apparent. Cicely was a daughter of Sir John Gresham and cousin of SirThomas Gresham, founder of theRoyal Exchange, who lived in Bishopsgate Street hard by. He had been apprenticed to her father and left her by will /^loo. Among existing documents we find in Latin a pardon for Germain Cioll, dated January 15th, ist lilizabeth, or 1558, the offences laid to his charge being conspiracy and treason. On January 25th, 1561, the house was let by Germain to his brother John, and to John Frier, doctor of physic. After a time Germain Cioll, who was a merchant and during the reign of Queen Mary had been engaged in the service of the State,got into diffi- culties, as we learn from the following petition addressed to Cecil by Sir Thomas Gresham in i 566 : - " I am so bold as to send you a letter that my cousin Ciole hath written unto me, wherein I praie you, for my sake, to helpehim to his money if it be possible, in this his great necessitie, whom I will insure you is fallen in decay only by sea and Bankrowts." This explains the reason why Crosby Place with five messuages or tenements was sold on May 15th, 1566, to William Bond, alderman, for ^^1,600, Germain Cioll reserving four tenements, besides some chambers near the hall, to which allusion will presently be made. His wife, who survived him, seems in spite of his losses to have been fairly well off. She occupied one of the tenements till her death on January loth, 1609, and refers to it in her will as her "dwelling-house" in Bishopsgate Street. She left money for the poor of St. Helen's, and of the parish of St. Michael's Bassishaw, and was buried in her father's vault at theeastendof the south aisleof the latter church. The entrance to this vault was exposed to view on the destruction of St. Michael's about the year 1898. Alderman Bond, thepurchaserof the mansion from Cioll, increased it in height by building a turret on the top, probably of some portion thathaslongagodisappeared. Hedied in i 576, SirThomas Gresham being one of the witnesses of his will. He left the property to his widow Margaret for life if she remained unmarried...The information which we have, regarding the two rooms, is contained in the deed of sale of Crosby Place by Germain Cioll and his wife to William Bond in 1566 (now in the Bishopsgate Institute), of which mention has been made on a previous page. We have seen that they then retained four tenements. They also kept possession of "one chambre lyinge on the north side of the wall of bricke and stone of the great chambre, which great chambre is over and above thegreateparlourofthesaied Crosbies Place conteyninge from the saied wall of bricke and stone northward twentie foote of assise and from the west part thereof to the east two and twentie foote of assise; and all the rowmes under the same to the maen grounde and a garret directlie on the same chambre adjoyninge likewise to the wall of bricke and stone afore- said - and likewise excepted and reserved one little garret or loft con- teyninge about twelve foote square adjoyninge to the east ende of the said garret last mentioned directlie on the toppe ofthestaires leadinge up to thegreate chatnbre of the saied Crosbies Place." The dimensions stated here tally ex- actly with those shown on the foundations in Wilkinson's plan, and the position of the rooms is so precisely stated that there is no difficulty in placing them as shown on ourconjectural plan and markedRandS. These g 2 49 additions were probably in half-timberwork, the portion S being three storeys at least in height, and the part R containing the staircasewith a room over it in the roof. The site of the latter was recently occupied by an office androomsover, approximately of the size of the earlier building ...

    John Webbe:
    In his will of 28 Dec. 1556 ........To his wife he left his goods and landed property, including his interest in Ospringe parsonage at Faversham, and the custody of their son Germain. The only child mentioned, Germain was the godson of Webbe’s ‘gossip’ Germain Cioll, who was to retain all Webbe’s money for delivery to the son when he became 25, taking £100 for himself and £50 for his son John Cioll. (Germain Cioll was at this time the owner of Crosby Place in St. Helen’s Bishopsgate, once the home of Sir Thomas More, and since Webbe left a gift to the curate of ‘St. Ellyns’ he was probably a neighbour of Cioll in that parish.)

    1. A judgement given in the Exchequer in an information against Germane Cioll for 40.s. set by Queen Mary upon every Tun of wine, of the growth of France, to be brought into the Realme.81 But the case there was this, the Attourney generall informed, that where King Philip, and Queen Mary by their Proclamation, 30 Martii, in the 4. and 5. yeares of their raigne, did will and straitly command, that no wines of the growth of France, should be brought into this | Realme, without speciall licence of the said King and Queene, under paine of forfeiture of such Wine to the King & Queene, Cumq; etiã dict’ nuper Rex & Regina de advisamento Concilii sui ad tunc ordinaver’ & decreverunt, quod quaelibet persona, quae in hoc Regnum Angliae
    induceret hujusmodi vina contra formam proclamationis praedict’, solveret pro quolibet dolio hujusmodi vini 40 s. vocat. impost. & c.82 and that German Ciol, against the forme and effect of the said Proclamation, had brought into the Realme 338. tunnes of Wines of the growth of France, and had not paid 40 s. for each and every tunne: the Defendant pleaded a licence from the said King and Queene, dated the 9. of Decemb. anno 1. & 2. to bring into the Realme 1500. tunnes of wine, of the growth of Fraunce, in strangers bottoms, with a non obstante83 of any Law, Statute, or Proclamation made or to be made to the contrary, whereupon the demurrer was joyned. In this Record these things are to be observed, first that a Proclamation prohibiting
    importation of wines upon paine of forfeiture, was against Law: for it appeareth not, that any warre was between the Realmes. 2. The Proclamation was made of purpose to set an imposition, for the 40.s is imposed upon them only, and upon such as should bring in Wines against the said Proclamation, so as the Proclamation was the ground of this information. 3. The King and Queene by advice of their Councell, did order, and decree &c. and sheweth not how, or by what meanes this order and decree was made: the pleading of such a former licence so insufficiently sheweth, that it was by agreement and consent.

    1020 Crawford Trotter Chamberlain was born in London on the 9th of
    March, 1821. He was the fourth son of Sir Henry Chamberlain, Bart.,
    Counsel-General and Charge´ d’ Affaires in Brazil and his second wife Anne Eugenia, née Morgan. ....Nominated a cadet for the Bengal Army by Russell Ellice, Esq., on the recommendation of J. H. Buckle in 1837, Crawford was
    commissioned an Ensign on the 12th of December, 1837... Originally posted to the 28th Native Infantry at Barrackpore, in early December of that year he was transferred as a ‘special case’ to the 16th Native Infantry in which regiment his older brother, Neville Chamberlain (later General Sir Neville Chamberlain) was already serving, the transfer having been arranged by an old family
    friend, the Commander-in-Chief, Sir Henry Fane, with whose family Crawford spent his leaves. .. Having been present at the capture of fortress of Ghuznee on the 23rd of July, 1838, the 16th N.I. was left to garrison the fortress of Ghuznee. Chamberlain received the medal for Ghuznee and shared in the prize money for the capture of the heavily defended fortress.

    Promoted to Lieutenant on the 26th of March, 1840, Chamberlain accompanied the 16th N.I. to Candahar in August 1841... Following the mutiny of some native members of the Janbaz Cavalry, Chamberlain was rode in pursuit, and catching up
    with them, charged their ranks... Chamberlain received the Cabul 1842 medal with Candahar reverse for his part in the war.

    In 1843, Lieutenant Chamberlain was sent to Scinde with two squadrons of irregular cavalry as an independent command known as Chamberlain’s Horse. In 1845, he succumbed to the effects of India and was sent on sick furlough to the Cape, where he married his first wife, Elizabeth, the daughter of J. de Witt.

    Returning to duty in India in 1846, Chamberlain was next appointed second-in-command of the 9th Irregular Cavalry....He served at the battle of Chillianwalla on the 13th of January, 1849...... Chamberlain was engaged in a particularly spectacular cavalry skirmish, in which his patrol killed sixteen of the enemy, though he himself was wounded. Gough was sufficiently impressed by the results of this encounter to make him the subject of a special despatch:

    ‘Lieutenant Chamberlain slew two of the enemy with his own hand, receiving a slight wound himself, and his energy and gallantry were, as usual, most conspicuous, and merit the best commendation of his Excellency. Lieutenant Chamberlain speaks in high terms of the conduct of the party he commanded on this occasion, and especially of the gallantry evinced by Ally Buksh, sowar
    of the first troop; and the Commander-in-Chief is persuaded that other parties sent on the important duty of protecting the carriage cattle of the army, will emulate the activity, conduct, and courage which has now so deservedly elicited his Lordship’s applause.’

    At the battle of Goojerat on the 21st of February, Chamberlain, not yet recovered from his wound, had to be lifted into his saddle ‘where he remained throughout the day’. After the battle his Brigadier, Sir John Hearsey, commented in his despatch:
    ‘Lieutenant Crawford Chamberlain, second in command 9th Irregular Horse, although still suffering from his wound, was present with the regiment the whole day, thus showing his usual energy.’ Lieutenant Chamberlain was present at the final surrender of the Sikh Army at Rawul Pindee.

    For his services in the Punjab campaign, Chamberlain was mentioned in despatches, received the Punjab medal with two clasps, was promoted Captain in his regiment and made Brevet Major. He was also rewarded with the command of the 1st Irregular Horse, formerly known as Skinner’s Horse, which had already made its mark on the military history of India.

    Major Chamberlain next commanded a column, including a squadron of his own regiment, the 1st Irregular Horse, in the force under Colonel Sydney J. Cotton in the Momund expedition of 1854...In the 1854 expedition, Major Chamberlain led his forces in the capture of the fortified Momund villages of Dabb, Sadin and Shah Mansur Khel ... The members of this expedition received the
    India General Service medal with the Northwest Frontier clasp.

    In May of 1857 Major Chamberlain was in command of the 1st Irregular Cavalry stationed at Multan ...

    In early June, the men of the 1st Irregular Cavalry evidenced their loyalty to Major Chamberlain by volunteering to shoot men
    condemned for mutiny at Jullundur. Lord Roberts’ memoirs relate the story of an incident that happened during this “anxious
    time” which is illustrative of Major Chamberlain’s mutual loyalty with the men of his regiment:


    To Chamberlain’s own personality and extraordinary influence over the men of the 1st Irregular Cavalry must be attributed to his success. His relations with them were of a patriarchal nature, and perfect mutual confidence existed.

    ....Following the disarming of the native regiments at Multan, Sir John Lawrence wrote to Chamberlain: “I have to thank you very heartily for the admirable manner in which you disarmed the 62nd N.I.; it was, I assure you, most delightful news hearing that it had been done. It was a most ticklish thing, considering that it had to be done entirely by native troops. I shall not fail to bring it to the special notice of Government. It would have proved a great calamity had our communications with Bombay been intercepted. I beg you will thank yours and the 2nd Punjab corps for their conduct.” Chamberlain’s name was duly brought to the notice of the Government in the Punjab Mutiny Report, which stated: “Too much credit cannot well be given to Major Chamberlain for his coolness, resolution, and good management on the trying occasion ... As the result of failure would have been calamitous, so the result of success was more favourable. Indeed the disarming at Mooltan was a turning-point in the Punjab crisis, second only in importance to the disarming at Lahore and Peshawur.” Although Chamberlain was promoted
    Lieutenant-Colonel, Field Marshal Lord Roberts commented:
    It was a most critical time, and enough credit has never been given to Chamberlain. Considering the honours which were bestowed on others who took more or less conspicuous parts in the Mutiny, he was very insufficiently rewarded for this timely act of heroism. Had he not shown such undaunted courage and coolness, or had there been the smallest hesitation, Multan would
    certainly have gone. Chamberlain managed an extremely difficult business in a most masterly manner…

    ...“His (Chamberlain’s) personal influence insured his own regiment continuing loyal throughout the Mutiny, and it has now the honour of being the 1st Regiment of Bengal Cavalry, and the distinction of wearing a different uniform from every other regiment in the service, being allowed to retain the bright yellow which the troopers wore when they were first raised by Colonel James Skinner, and in which they performed such loyal service.”

    Chamberlain was promoted Colonel in April of 1862, and in 1864 was appointed honorary A.D.C. to the Governor-General. In 1866 he was made a Companion of the Star of India, and was included in the first list of twelve officers granted a good service pension. That same year he was transferred to the command of the two silladar regiments of the Central India Horse
    involved in suppressing dacoity and banditry on the Grand Trunk Road. In 1867 he was given command of the Gwalior district with the rank of Brigadier-General. In 1869, he was officiating Political Agent at Gwalior for which he received the thanks of the Government for his services and from October of that year until February of the next year he was acting Political Agent
    at the court of Scindia.

    ...we visited the little Church of Manningford Bruce, or Brewose as it was called in the year 1316, Index when Maria de Brewose was the lady of the manor. Yillaris. Dedicated to St. Peter, the Church presents, archi- tecturally, some very remarkable features, and has within the last few years, been carefully restored by Mr. Pearson, under the super- intendence of the Rector, the Rev. James Bliss. Formerly over the altar, and now on the north wall of the chancel, is a tablet which records the resting-place of the remains of a woman. While she lived she was the wife of Edward Nicholas, who was the son of Sir Oliver Nicholas, Cupbearer to King James I. The Nicholases were of a very old Wiltshire family, residing at Ryndway, or Roundway, and branched off, and were traceable at several places in Wilts- at Compton Chamberlayne, Brokenborough, Stert, All Cannings, and Cote in Bishops Cannings. From the last- named place came Nicholas of Manningford Bruce. 1165. In the Heralds^ Visitation of Wilts, taken in the year 1623, Edward Nicholas, the eldest son of Robert Nicholas of Coate, who was a second son, is therein noted as of Manningford T, ,. and Brokenbury - this Edward Nicholas being the great Pedigree, •' _ . Nicholas. grandfather of the Edward Nicholas mentioned on the tablet.

    In the 1640's Lolesworth field remained almost entirely undeveloped. In March 1648/9 William Wheler of Datchet and his wife Jane conveyed to trustees all that part of Lolesworth which lay south of the line of Lamb Street and Brown's Lane (then called Lolesworth Lane). This was in trust for his wife for her life, and then in trust to raise portions for his seven daughters. The trusteeship of only two of the four trustees became effective, that of Edward Nicholas, son of Sir Oliver Nicholas of Manningford Bruce, Wiltshire, and of George Cooke of Datchet, gentleman. (ref. 15) Nicholas and Cooke were responsible for building in the vicinity of the open Spital Field in the 1660's and 1670's. In 1675 they relinquished their trusteeship for the partition and division of this southern part of the estate among the daughters. Subsequent developments on this part of the estate included the market and market area, Christ Church Spitalfields, the Wood Michell estate, and Nos. 56 and 58 Artillery Lane (see Chapters XI-XIV).

    PARKER, HENRY, eighth Baron Morley (1476-1556), courtier and author, was eldest son of Sir William Parker (d. 1510). The latter was privy councillor, standard-bearer to Richard III, and hereditary marshal of Ireland; he was knighted on 24 July 1482, when he was described as of London. His mother, Alice, was daughter of William Lovel, lord Morley (d. 1475), and sister and heiress of Henry Lovel, who was slain at Dixmude in 1489. She married, after Sir William Parker's death, Sir Edward Howard [q. v.], the admiral, and, dying in 1518, directed that she should be buried at Hingham, Norfolk. She brought to her first husband the manor of Hallingbury-Morley or Great Hallingbury, Essex, and other property in Norfolk, Buckinghamshire, and Herefordshire (Dugdale, i. 560). William Lovel, her father, was from 1469 to 1471 summoned to the House of Lords as Lord Morley in right of his wife Eleanora or Alienora, daughter and heiress of Robert Morley, sixth lord Morley (d. 1443) [cf. Morley, Robert de, Baron Morley]. The summons was not issued to Alice Lovel's brother or to either of her two husbands, although all were occasionally known by the courtesy title of Lord Morley.

    1027 D6. Henry Gascoigne, third son, m. Isabel Boynton of Sedbury Isabel Boynton died 23 March 1545. CP (in the bio of her second husband Thomas, 10th Lord Hilton) makes Isabel born c.1479, saying she was age 24 in 1503, but this is incorrect: it was her mother, Isabel Lumley Boynton, who was age 24 in 1503 (at the death of her father Bertram Lumley of Ravensworth). Henry Gascoigne was dead by 1543/44, when Isabel married Sir Thomas Hilton.

    Sir Henry Gascoigne died 28 October 1558, and his IPM was taken on 25

    Presumably his father's 1561 IPM would return an age for Richard. His

    The source for this, and specifically for generation D9, was the VCH for the North Riding of Yorkshire, which in turn cited Whitaker's Richmondshire and Hopkinson's MSS. In a recent trip to the FHL in Salt Lake City, I was able to check out the two sources cited by VCH. Actually, it turns out to be just one source, since Whitaker cites, and appears to quote verbatim, a pedigree of the Boyntons from the Hopkinson MSS. I say "appears to" because I could not locate the Gascoigne of Sedbury descent in the volume that the FHL has catalogued as the Hopkinson MSS, although both the Boynton and Gascoigne pedigrees there mention the marriage between the two families but do not carry the descent further than the marriage. So Whitaker probably got his Gascoigne descent from some place else (uncited) - and there are at least two key problems with his Gascoigne descent.
    Whitaker says that the Henry Gascoigne who mar. Isabel Gascoigne of Sedbury was the son, not the grandson, of the Sir William Gascoigne who mar. Margaret Percy. I have seen this parentage for Henry in at least one other (unsourced) pedigree of the Gascoignes, but two separate visitation pedigrees (Flower 1563/4 and Glover 1584/5) shows Henry's parentage as that listed by Brad's note, which appears to be the generally accepted version.

    The chronology certainly favors Henry Gascoigne of Sedbury being grandson of Sir William Gascoigne and Margaret Percy, and the 1530 Visitation pedigree of the family taken by Herald Thomas Tonge states that Henry was the third son of Sir William Gascoigne of Gawthorpe and his first wife Alice Frognell. [Note: the 1530 Visitation pedigree of Gascoigne published in Sur. Soc. 41 (1863) is frustratingly incomplete: it is printed on p. 15, but a long footnote cuts off the pedigree halfway through the paragraph on Sir William Gascoigne and
    Alice Frognell, and the following page - p. 16 - starts a completely
    new family pedigree, (Stapleton of Wighill.)

    At the time Hannah Waldon was born(1853) Tabinga(spelt Taabinga) would have been an outstation. Subsequently it became Taabinga Station.
    In 1888 parts of Nanago Station were resumed by the Colonial Government of Queensland, and the land was taken up by settlers who formed Taabinga Village, adjacent to Taabinga Station.
    The history of this settlement is given in the book "Wilderness to Wealth" by Murphy and Easton, written originally to record a century of settlement(1850-1950) in the Shires of Nanago, Kingaroy, Wondai, Muron, KIlkivan and part of Rosalie. The book was up-dated and reprinted in the mid 1970's. Taabinga Village still exists. It is on the road from Dalby via Kumia to Kingaroy.

    ....John Berkeley married Katherine, daughter of Sir Richard Devereux, Lord Ferrars, and had issue James Berkeley of
    Bradley, who married Joyce, daughter of Mr. Pettit, and had five children, John, Brice, Joyce, Jane, and Ann. John died
    without issue in the fifth year of Queen Mary. Brice married Anne, daughter and co-heir of Thomas Whittington, Esq.,
    and had one daughter only, Elizabeth. He died in the twenty-first year of Elizabeth. His daughter Elizabeth was married, firstly, to Edward Berkeley, Esq., son of John Berkeley of Cam (who was commonly called John de Planches) ; secondly, to Sir Edward Berkeley, second son of Sir Maurice Berkeley of Bruton ; and thirdly, to Nicholas Strangeways, Esq. She outlived all her three husbands, and died without issue by either at Bradley in 1613, 10th James I and was buried in Wotton.

    The present house, now called Bradley Court, was built by her first husband, Edward Berkeley, Esq., in the tenth year of Elizabeth's reign. In consequence of her having no issue, she alienated the Manor by sundry and divers sales, between the years 1604 and 1609, to various persons.

Sir Henry Pool, his son, was lord in 1608, and died in 1616. The manor came afterwards to Henry Somerset, Fsq. whose son Edward Maria Somerset was lord at the beginning of the last century. It was transferred by purchase from Lady Somerset to Henry Scudamore, Esq. of Cannon's Bridge, near Hereford, who was succeeded by his son, Henry Blackford Scudamore, Esq. He died and left his shares in this manor and estates to his widow, Tamor Scudamore, for life, and at her death to be divided among the children.

    BALCANQUAL, WALTER, an eminent Episcopalian divine of the seventeenth century, the son of the Rev. Walter Balcanqual, mentioned above, born in Edinburgh about 1586. .. He commenced his studies at the university of Edinburgh, where, in 1609, he took his degree of M.A. He afterwards entered at Pembroke Hall, Oxford, as a bachelor of divinity, and was admitted a fellow, September 8, 1611... In 1617 he was appointed master of the Savoy, in the Strand, London; and in 1618 he was sent by his majesty to the synod of Dort. .. In March 1624, he obtained the deanery of Rochester, and afterwards in May 1639, he was made dean of Durham. .. In 1638 he accompanied the marquis of Hamilton, the king’s commissioner, to Scotland in the capacity of chaplain; .... On July 29, 1641, he and five other gentlemen were denounced as incendiaries by the Scottish parliament. He was afterwards exposed to much persecution from the English Puritans, and after being plundered, sequestrated, and forced to fly from London, he went to Oxford, and for some years shared the waning fortunes of his sovereign. He died at Chirk castle, Denbighshire, on Christmas day, ... and a splendid monument was subsequently erected to his memory in the parish church of Chirk, by Sir Thomas Middleton.-(Steven’s History of Heriot’s Hospital.)

    ... Stuarta Balcanquall was dau. and coheir of Dean Walter Balcauquall. See the baptism of their first child 21 July 1643. Sir Thomas and Stuarta (who was his first wife) were parents also of Thomas Thynne, who eventually succeeded to Longleat, and is so well known to posterity as "Tom of Ten Thousand." ....The Dean died 25 Dec. 1645, and was buried at Chirk, co.
