He died 7 Nov. 1615. His long will is largely concerned with the difficulty he had found in administering the estates of his relatives Sir Bernard and Walter Leveson . He complained that he had been forced to compound with the Crown for half the goods, worth over £40,000, ‘pretended to be taken at sea out of a carrack’ captured by Richard Leveson ‘and not accounted for’. Still, he left £200 a year to his widow, £3,000 each to the coheirs, the two infant daughters of his deceased son John, and considerable charitable bequests, including £20 to the poor of Halling and other Kent parishes, with £5 to those of Lilleshall in Shropshire.

Sometime after Sir John C. the grandfather demanded the said deed of trust and this was delivered to him 20 years ago.

-----------
Oh good that's excellent then corraboration that there was an extra
Sir Peter Carew. If he was a full brother of George Carew, Earl of
Totnes, then their mother was Anne Harvey, who is of royal blood, and
the father George Carew, Dean of Bristol is also of royal blood.
I don't yet know who Peter's wife may have been, but his daughter Anne
"heiress of her father" had been married firstly to some William
Wilford and then after William's death she went to live with her uncle
George.
Meanwhile her future husband Allen Apsley, left school and moved to
London to get some small appointment at Queen Bess' court. He went to
Cadiz with the Earl of Essex in 1596 and then apparently to Ireland
for something or other.
It was something in this time, when he met the young Anne Carew,
already a widow. I don't know yet who this William Wilford might be.
You can find the answers to your questions about the two Sir Peter
Carews (and their wives) in a Carew pedigree in Vivian's edition of
the Visitations of Devon, available on-line at the BYU Library
website. Leo is correct: The Sir Peter Carew whose daughter married
[the elder] Sir Alan Apsley was a cousin of the other Sir Peter Carew
who married Margaret Skipwith and died without issue. This latter Sir
Peter Carew named the other Sir Peter Carew, his cousin, among his
heirs.
But there may be other problems in these connections. What evidence
is there that Isabella Apsley, mother of the Earl of Strafford, was a
daughter of the elder Sir Alan Apsley and not his son also Sir Alan?
On the south wall of the chancel is a monument of alabaster,with the effigies of the deceased and his lady in kneeling attitudes,to the memory of Sir George Hervey, Knt. (fn. 45), Lieutenant of the Tower, who died in 1605; and near it another, with the effigies of the deceased, recumbent, to the memory of Anne, his sister (fn. 46),wife of George Carew, Esq. (fn.47) (third son of Edmund Baron of Carew,) who died the same year. (fn 47)
He died in 1583. They had issue,1. Sir Peter Carew, Knt. slain in Ireland in 1580. He married Audrey, daughter of William Gardener, Esq. of Buckinghamshire, and had issue Peter, who died young,and Anne, his daughter and heir, married,first to Sir Thomas Wilford, Knt. and afterwards to Sir Allen Apsley. 2. Sir George Carew, Lord President of Ireland,and Governor of Munster under Queen Elizabeth; created Baron Carew of Clopton,and afterwards Earl of Totness. He married Joyce, daughter and coheir of William Clopton, of Clopton in the county of Warwick. 3. Mary, married to Walter Dowrishe, Esq., died in 1604. 4. Elizabeth, who died in her infancy. The monument was erected by George Lord Carew.

Here resteth in Peace Sir Olliphe Leigh of Addington Knight who married Jane Daughter of Sr. Thomas Browne of •worth Knight by whom he had Francis his onely Sonne and Heire He died the Mth day of Marche MDCCXII. And in memory of John Leigh his Father anid Nicholas his Father caused this Monument to be erected."
Above the lady lies the effigies of Sir Olliphe, in complete armour, leaning on his elbow ; his left hand, helmet and gauntlets supporting his head, with his right hand on his sword ; over which are erected two arches ; in that of the right hand are the figures of Nicholas Leigh, Esq., and his lady, kneeling, with their faces towards each other ; under them, on a black table, is the following inscription : -
"Nicholas Leigh of Addington Esquier married Anne Sister to Sr Nicholas Carew of Beddington Knight by whem he had Issue
John Leigh. Malin. Elizabeth. Mary. Anne."
In the other arch are likewise the portraitures of John Leigh and his lady, in such action as the former ; the gentleman in armour, and lady in their ancient dresses. Under them is this inscription : -
"John Leigh of Addington Esquier Sonne of Nicholas Leieh of Addington Maried Joane Daughter and Heire of John Olliph
Esquier by whom he had Issue Sr Ollipb. Leigh Knight .J"lm Charles Anne Joane Elizabeth and Katherin He ended this
Lyfe the 31th of March MDLXXVI."
Above are four shields with the arms of Leigh, Carew, and Olliph. 9
The whole was surmounted originally with a cornice and angels blowing trumpets ; but these were gone in Aubrey's time. At the last restoration of the church in 1875 there was a wish expressed to move this monument, but, owing to the objection of the Archbishop and of one of the principal subscribers, the design was happily abandoned.
Sir Olliph Leigh's widow, Jane, survived him, and was buried at Addington on 28th June, 1631.

Hi Douglas, Ronny, Barrie and Henry:
"The Sussex Archaeological Collections Vol III p 92 has the parents of Sir Thomas Leknor (who m Philippa Dalyngrudge) as Sir Roger Leknor (Knight of the Shire 4th Hen IV (1404), ob 10 Edw IV., Inq p m 13 Edw IV) by Elizabeth _da of Sir John Carew, of Fulford_.
This work is based partly on the visitation of 1634 as reproduced in Harl. MS., No 1562, and adds that the Visitation in Harl. MS No 1406 is a hasty and bad copy of that visitation.
If correct this must then be a different Elizabeth Carew to that in Ronny's message
Henry Sutliff wrote,
This may probably has been addressed in CP XIV, but FWIW CP VI:564 calls the first wife of Thomas Hoo who d. 13 Feb 1454/5, Elizabeth, daughter of Nicholas Wychingham, of Wychingham, Norfolk rather than Elizabeth Echingham. However
CP VI:565 shows that Eleanor, daughter of said Thomas, married firstly Thomas Echingham who d.s.p. So it is no wonder there is confusion. You are not alone!
There are no corrections to Hoo in Vol XIV
BTW:-
>From a secondary source (guide to Bodiam Castle) only gives the one wife of Sir Thomas Lewknor but gives his son Sir Roger Lewknor of Dedisham (-1478) by Philippa Dalyngrigge as m1 Eleanor dau of Lord Camoys and m2 Isabel dau of Roger _Etchingham_. CP Vol II p 508 note h) confirms part of this, that Eleanor sister and co-heir of Hugh de Camoys 2nd Lord C m Roger Lewknor - She was aged over 18 at ipm 5 Hen VI of Hugh.

Folks,
Okay, I'm going to throw more mud on the waters relative to the parentage of Elizabeth Carew. By the way, Rosie, is this associated with the Goodere/Frowyke/Dalyngrudge research you've been doing? Anyway here goes.
"700 Years of the Beville Family" (I won't qualify this source)
rummages that Sir Nicholas Carew and Lucy, d. of Sir Richard Willoughby, had Nicholas Carew who married (1) Isabel Delamere (and had Thomas who died young and was buried with his mother), and (2) Mercy (Mary) Delamere; Margaret Carew wife of Turbevyle; and Elizabeth Carew wife of Thomas Lewknor. Nicholas II had by Mercy (Mary) Delamere an Isabella (d.1434), wife of (1) Robert Buckton and, (2)Brian Harrick; Nicholas Carew husband of
Sir Robert Fiennes; and Thomas husband of Agnes, dau. of Thomas Hayton of Ewell, Surrey.
It continues "In the 11th generation, the eldest son and heir of the
foregoing sir Nicholas Carew was another Nicholas. He married first to Isabelle Delamere, by whom one son, Thomas, was born. After the death of Isabelle, Nicholas married her sister Mercy (or Mary), another daughter of Stephen Delamere. The son Thomas died young, and was buried along with his mother.
. [provides description of brass of Nicholas and Isabelle, but adds no
additional detail]
..This Nicholas Carew and his second wife had several children as is shown on the chart. he carried on in positions which had been held by his father and was sheriff of surrey in 1391-2; knight of the shire in Parliament from 1393-98, and again in 1417. At his death, September 4, 1432, sir Nicholas was buried with his first wife." The sources provided are
Berry's Pedigrees of Surrey Families; Members of parliament, Vol.
1:248,251-256 and 290; Vict Hist. surrey, Vol. 1:435.
Nicholas' will is dated 1432 (p.c.c. - 16 Luffernam.)"
Maybe this doesn't help, but here's a few more another:
Sussex Archaeological Collections (1850), Vol III, p. 92-101,
in an article titled "Pedigree of the Lewknor Family," by William Durrant Cooper, states that Sir Roger Lewknor, Knight of the Shire, 4th hen, IV (1404), ob. 10 Edw. IV. IPM 13 Edw IV., married Elizabeth, da. of Sir John Carew, of Fulford.
Berry's Sussex County Genealogies, p.130, provides Sir Thomas Lewknor, knight of the Shire, 2 Henry IV as the husband of Elizabeth, da. of Sir John Carew, of Fulford.
The Visitations of Sussex, 1530 (HS Vol LIII)does not add anything to clear the mess up, but it does provide the connection between Sr Roger Lewknor knight 31 H.6 (1453, oooh, look out for these dates!) and Elizabeth d. of ... Carew.
Are you sure we arn't talking about two different matches?
Thomas Lewknor and Elizabeth Carew (da. of John of Fulford); and Roger Lewknor and Elizabeth Carew (da. of Nicholas Carew)
Someone with access to other sources (i.e. a list of the Knights of the Shire) might provide some insight to build a timeline that could reflect two successive generations. By the way, the same visitations as above mentions Roger's father as Sir Thomas lewknor knight 30 E. 3, 1356, husband of Joan d. and heire of Sr John Doyle. The spread between 1356 and 1453 would be too hard to handle for just two generations. That is, if the dates are correct.
Anyway, there's a bit to chew on. Cheers, Kevan
My original question about the identity of Elizabeth Carew, wife of Roger Lewknor brought forth a number of versions. I am adding another one which seems to me entirely plausible and well researched.
From William Bayley, Account of the House of D'Oyly, 1845.p.95
ROGER LEWKNER of Bradhurst, co Sussex; who married Margaret, daughter of Sir John Carew of Molesford, co Berks [Lewknor ped. Add MS 5523 fol. 17 and Harl MS 6164 fol.23b] (Or, three lions passant in pale sable) and died 1401 2 Hen IV, a young man; his nuncuperative will being proved Feb 1401-2 in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury. His IPM was not however until 13 Hen IV
when it was found that he had died seized of all his father's estates in Sussex, and that his son and heir Thomas was then aet 19 [Esch 13 Hen IV no.28 ; Cott MS Faust C x] [That makes him born 1394]
SIR THOMAS LEWKNOR, aforesaid of Bradhurst, co Sussex & co who had previously in 5th Hen IV been found heir, through his grandmother Joane D'Oyly to the extensive estates of the Tregoze
family at Goring, co Sussex, and elsewhere in that county, on the death of John Tregoze of Goring, son of Sir Henry Tregoze, Knt : on which occasion the jury returned that "Thomas Lewknor was the cousin and heir of the deceased (being the son of Roger, the son of Joan, the daughter of Margaret D'Oyly, sister of Sir Henry Tregoze) and that the said Thomas was 12 years of age. [Esch 5 Hen IV John Tregoze]. Sir Thomas thus acquired many numerous estates in Sussex ; moved his seat to Goring ; was knight of the shire for
Sussex in 1 Hen VI (1423) and was thrice married. His first wife was
Elizabeth, daughter of his maternal kinsman and guardian Nicholas Carew of Beddington, co. Surrey (ancestor of the Baronets Carew of Beddington) by Mary his wife. She died s.p. Sept 1410 and was buried in Beddington church [Manning's Surrey, II 523-9]. He married secondly Philippa, relict of Sir Richard Berners, daughter and, by death s.p. of her brother Richard Dalyngrigge, sole heiress of Walter Dalyngrigge, son of Sir Roger Dalyngrigge of Bodiam Castle, co. Sussex, and cousin and heiress of Sir John Dalyngrigge, Knt.
[Bayley goes on to say that Thomas Lewknor's third wife was Catherine Pelham, but on my copy he has realised his mistake and crossed it out. In his handwriting he has added "this relates to his grandson" and "his third wife was Elizabeth Echingham"]

Based upon our earlier exchange wherein it is established that Margaret, wife of Robert Hill was the daughter of Richard Champernowne III, apparently by his 2nd wife, Katherine Daubeney, I took a look at her ancestry and came across something interesting---she too is descended from the Champernownes. I
cracked the books and assembled the following:
The Inq. of Walter de Treverbyn and Andrew de Solenny (CIPM, 4: no. 82), dated to 1302, refers to the manor of Faweton, co. Cornwall and its division among the heirs of Andrew de Solenny. The heirs included his aunt, Emma de Sulenny. The IPM reads "From Emma the younger sister issued one Oliver de Campo Arnulphi her son and heir, from him one Joan his daughter and heir, from her Ralph
her son and heir, and from him one John de Welynton, who now holds his pourparty and is off full age and married.

History of Parliament Online:
Sir Carew Raleigh or Ralegh (c.1550 - c.1625), elder brother of Sir Walter Raleigh , was an English naval commander who served on the expedition led by his half-brother, Sir Humphrey Gilbert , in 1578, and was on the list of sea-captains drawn up to meet the threat of a Spanish invasion in 1586; from 1591 to 1603 he was Vice-Admiral of Dorset. He sat as a Member of Parliament for Wiltshire in 1586-7, Ludgershall in 1588-9, Fowey in 1601 and Downton in 1604-11 and 1621-2. He was knighted in 1601, and was Lieutenant of the Isle of Portland .
History of Parliament Online :
...Some time before the death of Sir John Thynne in 1580 Ralegh had become his gentleman of the horse, and within a year or two he married Thynne’s widow. It is usually said that on his marriage Ralegh sold his Devon lands and set himself up at Downton House in Wiltshire; but both statements probably antedate the changes in question. Ralegh’s father died in 1581, ... By the 1580s Carew was certainly in process of transferring his attachment to Wiltshire - in 1582 he was a J.P. in that county, and two years later he was to represent it in Parliament - but not immediately to the exclusion of interests and duties in the west country. His wife’s connexions in Wiltshire, both in her own right as a Wroughton and through the Thynnes, could bring him influence there, ...For all that Carew Ralegh has been described as ‘mean and acquisitive’, he was not without personal charm. ...He was associated with his brother and his Gilbert half-brothers in those speculative discussions ... Perhaps Queen Elizabeth’s judgment of him, ‘Good Mr. Ralegh, who wonders at his own diligence (because diligence and he are not familiars)’, holds the clue to Carew Ralegh’s career, ... the knighthood conferred at Basing House honoured a country gentleman, not a national hero. Although he did not desert his brother in prison, he survived Sir Walter’s fall, to carry on the life that he had chosen, as little concerned by James I as James was concerned with him.

Darrell had made his will on 25 July 1528 ... and had asked to be buried in Ramsbury church. His eldest son John had been slain near Calais, so that the heir was his grandson and namesake, who received specified items of plate and half of all that was left, the remainder being bequeathed with the residue of the goods to the testator’s wife Alice, the sole executrix. If the younger Edward should die without male issue, his legacies were to go to Darrell’s second son Edmund, who was assigned an annuity of 20 marks. Two unmarried daughters, Elizabeth and Catherine, received 300 marks and 100 marks respectively and a third daughter, Anne Newdigate, was also left 100 marks. Darrell died on 9 Mar. 1530, possessed of lands in Berkshire, Dorset and Wiltshire: the property in all three counties had been vested in feoffees, among whom was the Queen’s chamberlain the 4th Lord Mountjoy. In 1531, in accordance with Darrell’s wish, Sir William Essex received the heir’s wardship and marriage, and the boy grew up to continue the line.

History of the noble house of Stourton, of Stourton, in the county of Wilts; (Volume 1). (page 6 of 62)
....of this John Stourton as issue of this marriage, although Hoare's copy o( the College of Arms pedigree shewed Alice to be sole issue, while Collins' Peerage (Bridges) merely implied he left issue, because that writer stated the three younger brothers died without issue. She married secondly, John Beynton, of Hampreston, Dorset. She married, thirdly, William Wadham, who died 20th March, 1473. She married, fourthly, William Carent, of Toomer, Esquire, which marriage is confirmed by Edmondson, Collins, and Harl. MS. 1074. William Carent is identified as having previously married Margaret Stourton, sister of Sir John Stourton, knight, created Baron of Stourton. William Carent was the king's escheator for Counties Somerset and Dorset, in 8-9 Henry V. and i Henry VI., then called "junior," sometime Sheriff of those counties, M.P. for Co. Somerset, and founder, 20th March, 1463, 3 Edward IV., of the obiit in Henstridge Church for himself, his wife, Margaret (Stourton) and others, he dying 8th April, 1476.
By Catherine Payne, or Pyne, (who is mentioned in her husband's will, and whose arms were blended with Stourton and Sydenham in the book plate referred to on page 73,) John Stourton had a daughter and coheir:-
Alice Stourton, who was aged 7 years in 1439, and from her father she inherited Pendomer Manor, &c., under his settlement and entail as before shewn under his name, which premises were eventually disentailed by her descendant, Henry Daubeney, created Earl of Bridgewater, and sold by him. She married (i) William Daubgney. Lord of Barrington, Co. Somerset, son and heir of Sir Giles Daubeney, knight, and consequently ancestor of Henry Daubeney, created Earl of Bridgewater ; and (2)Robert Hill of Houndston Manor, Co. Somerset, who died in 1493, seised of that Manor, &c., his arms, impaling those of Stourton, were setup in Dunster Church, (Harl. MS., 1559, fo. 235.) Hoare in his copy of the College of Arms pedigree, says she married, i. - William Daubeney, Esq., and 2.- Robert Hill, although Edmondson only gives the first husband, but the Visitation for Co. Worcester confirmed Hoare, calling her father Jenkin Stourton. Harleian Manuscript 1074, likewise supported these marriages, although wrongly stating her mother to have been Alice Peny, her fathers second wife, but this was corrected by the old pedigree of 1509 which added that her first husband was Lord of Baryngton.
We find that on the north wall of Little Cheney Church, Co. Dorset, there was erected a monument to the memory of her son, George Daubeney, on which the arms of Daubeney, Stourton, dc Bosco, Moyne, &c., appeared on the dexter side. Her daughter, Alice Hill married Sir Nicholas Wadham, of Merryfield, Co. Somerset, knight, who by his will, of 25th Nov., 1539, proved [15 Spert] 30th Jan., 1542, appointed Roger Fauntleroy an executor, and Lord Stourton an overseer; and the will of his wife, Dame Jane Wadham, was made 22nd July, 1557, proved [29 Wrastley] 31st August, 1557. We read under Charles, 8th Lord Stourton, of William Fauntleroy and Cecily, his wife, Lessees of Stourton Manor, being illegally disturbed in their possession of that property by the action of this Agnes Rice, whose mother afterwards married the above Henry Daubeney, created Earl of Bridgewater. All the authorities shew that Sir John Stourton, created Baron of Stourton, Co. Wilts., married Margery, daughter of Sir John Wadham, of Merryfield, Co. Somerset, knight.
John Stourton, and his trustees, had release, on 25th Oct., 1409, of the premises from John Duke, husband of Elizabeth, eldest daughter and coheir of the vendor, which premises John Stourton settled on his third daughter and cohier Alice, and her issue, by William Daubeney, her husband, with remainder over in favour of his two elder daughters, Mrs. Sydenham and Mrs. Kyryell, and others successively in tail, to the heirs of the body of his sister, Edith, late wife of Sir Robert Shottesbroke, knight, to John Lynde (nephew of the settlor, John Stourton), and William Carent, of Toomer;.... | Stourton, Alice (I04887)

Holyrood Church, Swindon
At the east end, beneath the window, is the following inscription upon a stone let in even with the pavement:
"Here lieth the body of Anne Vilett, wife of Thomas Vilett, gent, and daughter of Edmund Webb, of Rodbourne, Esqure, who departed this life December 6,
1643. Her age 54. She had living of eight children only one."
The arrangement of the inscription upon this stone, as well as upon the two following is peculiar, and at first sight hardly intelligible; the graver would seem to have been at a loss how to cut out what he was required without crowding. The stone close by has the following inscription:
"Here lieth the body of Thomas Vilett, gent. Hee departed this life the 6th day of November 1667; also Captn. John, son of ye Sd. Ths. Vilett, who died March ye 17, 1700, aged 70 years."
The first part of this inscription is the same as that which Aubrey saw and copied when he visited this place two centuries since; that relating to the son, Captain John, That relating to the son has been added since his time. The third stone is in memory of Thomas Vilett's second wife, whose memory is preserved in these words :
'Aug, 24, 1650, was buried Martha, second wife of Thomas Vilett, gent., and daughter of Thomas Goddard Esqure. She had three children livinge."
All three of these stones, besides the inscriptions, have devices graven upon them.

we see that George Digby (1612-1677), 2nd Earl of Bristol (1658-)
He was his father's eldest son, and was born in Madrid where his
father John Digby was then ambassador and not yet the 1st Earl of Bristol which title he received in 1622.
He was not however his mother Beatrice Walcott's eldest son.
Beatrice is given many times as simply "widow of Sir John Dive" with no particulars, and in several sources there is mention of her elder son Lewis Dive, Knt. Beatrice's first husband Sir John Dive died before 1609 when she married John Digby 31 May 1609 at St James Clerkenwell.
Beatrice and John Digby had at least four children. Other than
George, they had a John born in 1618, an Abigail who married George Freke, and a Mary (d 1648) who married Arthur Chichester (1606-75), 1st Earl of Donegal.
I have now located in the extracted IGI the marriage record for
Beatrice to her first husband John Dive which is stated as
"18 Jan 1598 at Saint Mary le Bow, London" I've tentatively modified it to 18 Jan 1598/9 but it could also be 18 Jan 1597/8
Beatrice and John had two sons, the younger one John Dive bap 3 Aug 1601 at Bromham died young, some say in 1601.
The elder one has been given as bap 1595 but the register entry states 25 Nov 1599 at Bromham.
Lewis Dive was Knighted in 1620, and is said-to-have died in 1669.
Lewis married Howard Strangways the eldest daughter of John Strangeways, Knt by his wife Grace Trenchard. Howard was a widow, and some call her first husband Roger Rogers, or Richard Rogers, but his name was Edward Rogers, esq as is proven by a dower claim by Howard.
Edward Rogers was the heir of his father John Rogers Knt by his wife Joan Browne daughter of John Browne Knt of Frampton.
Lewis Dive, Knt and Howard Strangways had four known children, but only the third Francis is known to have any extended life baptised in 1632 with children of his own baptised at Bromham later.
It is unknown to me (from any reliable source) exactly when Howard was born, she may have been a child-bride, not yet formally living as wife with Edward Rogers. They married in 1622 and he died "the next year" so it's doubtful they had any children together and I haven't uncovered any.
Will,
John Dive was buried 19 Dec. 1607 in Bromham. His first wife was Douglas Denny, dau. of Sir Anthony Denny and his wife Joan Champernoun. John & Douglas were married in 1562. His second wife Beatrice Walcott was most likely the one whose baptism is recorded in Lydbury North in 1574. CP 2:321 states she died 12 Sep. 1658 "aged 84." She was therefore, the daughter of the elder Charles Walcott. John Dive was considerably older than Beatrice and Beatrice was about a dozen years older than her second husband, John Digby.
I hope that is of some assistance.

John St John (1505-1576) of Lydiard Tregose inherited Purley Magna in 1512 although still a minor. Presumably the manor was administered by his mother Joan who re-married to Nicholas Saunder.
He would have beome Lord at his majority in 1526. Very little is known of happenings during his lordship and he died in 1576 the manor passing to Nicholas St John, who had been named on a settlement of the manor by Joan together with his intended bride Elizabeth Blount of Mapledurham House.
The latter couple came to live in Purley, at the old Manor House, often referred to as the Great Farm House adjacent to the church. Elizabeth & Nicholas had eight children: John, Oliver, Richard, Elizabeth, Catherine, Eleanor, Dorothy and Jane and one may suppose that most, if not all were born in Purley, or at least were brought up there. (ref 590)
Nicholas St John of Purley, along with George Phetyplace of the Middle Temple was granted the manors of Shrevenham, Salop, Compton Beauchamp and Stamford in the Vale, Berks and other lands in 1566.
Nicholas St John died in 1589 and left a will. He was succeded by his son John. Elizabeth, nee Blount had died in 1587 and both were buried at Lydiard Tregose in Wiltshire. (refs 589-148, 590)

(Sir) JOHN WYNN (1553?1627). A student of All Souls, Oxford, in 1570, he was at Furnival's Inn in 1572 and at the Inner Temple in 1576. He appears to have lived in London until his father's death in 1580, although he may have travelled abroad. After inheriting Gwydir, he entered vigorously into the public life of North Wales; he was high sheriff of Caernarvonshire, 1587-8, 1603, of Merioneth, 1588-9 and 1600-01, and of Denbighshire, 1606-7, and Member of Parliament for Caernarvonshire, 1586-7. He was knighted in 1606, appointed a member of the Council of the Marches in 1608, and created a baronet in 1611. Unscrupulous, acquisitive, litigious, and hot-tempered, he was the leader of the dominant party in Caernarvonshire, and it was only in the closing years of his life that the supremacy of his family and party in the county was threatened by the rivalry of the Griffiths of Cefn Amwlch (qq.v.), leaders of the conservative Llyn squires (see below, under Sir Richard Wynn, second baronet). He attempted to introduce the manufacture of Welsh friezes into the Vale of Conway, was interested in the Parys Mountain (Anglesey) copper mines, and in 1625 suggested to Sir Hugh Myddelton, (q.v.) a project for reclaiming Traeth Mawr, separating Caernarvonshire from Merioneth. He founded [?] a school and alms houses at Llanrwst in 1610 [but see under Williams, John (fl. 1584-1627?). One of the petitioners for a royal commission to hold an eisteddfod in 1594, he encouraged the literary activities of his kinsmen, Thomas Wiliems of Trefriw (q.v.). His own History of the Gwydir Family was published in 1770 (ed. Daines Barrington), in 1827 (ed. Angharad Llwyd), 1878 (ed. Askew Roberts), and again in 1927 (ed. John Ballinger). He was also the author of a survey of Penmaenmawr (published in 1859 and reissued in 1906, ed. W. Bezant Lowe, q.v.).
By his wife Sydney, daughter of Sir William Gerrard, he had ten sons and two daughters. His eldest son,
JOHN WYNN (c. 1584-1614) was educated at Bedford School and Lincoln's Inn. He was high sheriff of Merioneth, 1611-2, and was knighted in 1613. His marriage to Margaret, daughter of Sir Thomas Cave, appears to have been unhappy, and he travelled in France and Italy, 1613-4, and d. at Lucca, 1614, possibly in the Roman faith.

CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history: The Wynn family of Gwydir claimed descent from Owain Gwynedd's second marriage to Christiana, daughter of Goronwy ap Owain ap Edwin, lord of Englefield. The first of the family to use the name Wynn, twelve generations later, was Morris Wynn (d. 1580), son of John ap Meredydd (fl. 1544-1559). His son Sir John Wynn (c.1553-1626) was created a baronet in 1611, and was the author of The History of the Gwydir Family. His grandson, Sir Richard Wynne (d. 1674), the fourth baronet, was succeeded by his daughter Mary, his sole heiress. The baronetcy devolved to his cousin, Sir John Wynne (1628-1719) of Wattstay (who changed the name of the house to Wynnstay); the baronetcy became extinct on Sir John's death, and the Wynnstay estate passed to his kinsman Sir Watkins Williams (d. 1749) who founded the Watkins Williams-Wynne family of Wynnstay.
