The late Mr. Robert J.L. Craig (By T.H., an old school mate)
Arrived on Canning Downs with my parents in 1853 when quite a lad, and being a resident of the Warwick district ever since, it is not surprising that I was brought into close touch with Mr. William Craig and his family of whom Robert was one. In 1853 when I arrived on the Downs William Craig was then carrying on business as a Blacksmith- Wheelwright on Hudson Hill. Prior to this time William Craig had been on Rosenthal where he came with his family from N.S.W. about 1848. It was shortly after our arrival that our families became acquainted and ever since Bob and I have been fast friends. Bob went to school somewhere in the vicinity of Deuchars Creek conducted by a man named "Lewis" and later attended the National School in Harris and it was at this time that I attended the same school. Leaving school about the age of 14 years he went into his father's shop to learn wheelwrighting. This he mastered and many a pair of 1st class wheels he turned out, and although it is many years since he relinquished business, there are still some of his wheels running. Many of the old hands have resaon to remember the excellent work turned out of Craigs' shop. In the latter fiftees the shop was erected in Victoria Street where years after it will be remembered by many as the busiest place in Warwick.
To the Cragi family may a large share of the credit of laying the foundation of Warwick be given. Of a family of five(5) sons only one, James, survives.
When quite a young man Bob took a great interest in stock, particularly horses and cattle, and he bred some very fine animals. He was fond of a good race horse and owned some of the best of his day and many who frequented the race course in those days will remember such cracks as Ben Bob and Black Bess. Those were the days when horses were raced for sport and the best horse came in a winner. Later he filled the position of Clerk of the Course for many years and nothing pleased him more than to see a real good race. bob was a keen judge of both cattle and horses, and it is not surprising to find any stock carrying the RC.5 brand worthy of inspection. For many years, in company with Jimmy Locke, he filled the position of Cattle Steward for the EDH&A Association, from which post some years ago he was relieved by his own request.
In the early 1860"s he selected a farm on Campbells Plain, now known as Clavering, where he made his home. He also had a fine grazing area on the range near Cunningham's Gap, known as Strathmillar, and it was from this property that he had just returned the afternoon before his death.
We knew each other intimately ever since we were boys, and it is with feelings of the most genuine regret that I learned early on Saturday last that I should that day follow his remains to their last resting place, which is in the close proximity of a number of groups of old friends and pioneers.
The death of Robert Craig has cast quite a gloom over the town and district and removes from our midst one of the finest men I have ever known; stirling, honest, upright, honourable to a degree; a man who at all times and in any conditions would scorn to be associated with any transaction that would not bare the keenest scrutiny and close investigation; a man whose word was at all times his bond, a man whose friendship continues to make life that more worthy of living; his familiar figure, his ever ready gratuitous advice and assistance will be sorely missed by those who had the honour and priviledge of his acquaintance. To his widow and family I extend my sincerest sympathy; I mourn the loss of a life long friendship Mr. Robert John Lee Craig.

Sudden Death of Mr. R. Craig
A considerable amount of surprise was expressed yesterday morning when it became known that during the night Mr. R. Craig of Freestone Road passed away suddenly at his residence. The deceased had only a few hours previously returned from his selection near Maryvale and partook a hearty tea. There was nothing to indicate that his health was anything but good, and he retired early to bed to readd the papers. At about 9.30 p.m. his daughter heard a noise from her Father's bedroom, and proceeding to ascertain the cause, found him in a dying condition. Doctor Phillips was immediately sent for, but before arrival life was extinct. Unfortunately Mrs. Craig and son were absent in Brisbane but she was communicated with and arrived by yesterday's mail train.
The late Mr. Craig was one of the best known men in the district and was one of the oldest hands. He knew Warwick when it was first built on the vicinity of Victoria Street. With his brother, Tom, he carried on Black-smithing, first at Rosenthal and later in Victoria St., subsequently the deceased relinquished business and engaged in farming and grazing pursuits in the Freestone District.
By a large circle of acquaintances the late Mr. Craig's sudden death is deeply deplored for he was a man for whom everybody had a good word to say. Deceased who was 65 years of age leaves a widow and a family of nine all grown up and four married. His son Arthur is Postmaster at Mitchell and his son Robert, Headteacher at Ilfracombe.
Deceased was a foundation member of the local Caledonian Society and was a committee man for a period of 32 years. The executive and members will attend the funeral which will leave from the late residence at noon today passing through town about 2 p.m.

The Astleys were a Staffordshire family but their connexion with Wiltshire dated from the first half of the 18th century. Sir John Astley's mother had married as her second husband General Webb of Biddesden (Chute), member of Parliament for Ludgershall, when her son was only a year old; and after her death he bought himself an estate at Everley, in the same part of the county. This passed at his death to Francis Dugdale, father of John Dugdale Astley, the Wiltshire member of Parliament.

Lives of Emienent and Illustrious Men by George Godfrey Cunningham
...Joseph Allein, an eminent non-conformist minister, was born at Devizes, in Wiltshire, in 1633. At the age of sixteen he entered Lincoln college, Oxford, and in 1651 was admitted scholar of Corpus Christi. In 1653 he was elected to the chaplainship, which he is said to have chosen in preference to a fellowship. ... In 1655 he became assistant minister to Mr Geo. Newton at Taunton. ...Before the passing of the act of uniformity in 1662, it was expected that he would have conformed; but when he saw the clauses to which his assent and consent were required, he determined to refuse submission. He was fully resolved, however, not to suspend his preaching until he should be prevented by violence. Accordingly, he even redoubled his labours-preaching sometimes seven, ten, or even fourteen sermons a-week, in Taunton and its neighbourhood. Such was the respect felt for him that he was permitted to continue these labours undisturbed till May 26, 1663, when he was committed to Illchester jail. In August he was tried at the assizes for holding a riotous and seditious assembly. ...and to be imprisoned till the fine was paid. On his recommitment to prison, he was confined with upwards of sixty others, mostly quakers and nonconformists, in one room, where they all suffered greatly from the closeness of the place,...and upon his release, commenced his public labours again. He had large congregations in various places, who were much attached to him. In July, 1665, he was again arrested, and with seven other ministers, and forty private persons, was committed to the jail at Ilchester... He died in 1668. ... Soon after his death, an account of his life, labours, and sufferings, was published by Mr R. Allein, R. Fairclough, G. Newton, and his widow. Mr Baxter wrote the Introduction, and two conformist ministers gave it their sanction.
His body lies in the chancel of the church of St. Magdalen, of Taunton and on his grave-stone are the following lines: Here Mr. Joseph Allein lies, To God and you a sacrifice.

Llyfr Baglan, published in 1910. This work is based on pedigrees collected by John Willisms in the period, 1600-1607. On pages 279, the following information:
This Sr Edward [Stradling] had to his brothere John Stradlinge, knight, who ma. w'th the heire of dauncie in wilshir and had issue sir Edmond, who had issue John and Edmond; John had issue the ladie dauers, of whome the davers, hungerfordes, fynes and levets and a great p'genye of theme are descended, and of the said Edmond cometh Carnysoyes of Cornwall.").
Edmund Stradling died in the year 1460 ; his post-mortem inquisition (No. 12 of 1 Edward IV.) shows that he held the same manors as his father, Sir John, and, in addition, those of Castlecombe, Pertenall, and Trowe. His heir is his son John, aged 11 years and more.
John Stradling, son of Edmund, died ten or eleven years after his father, whose manors he retained. John's inquisition is No. 21 of 11 Edward IV. His heir is his daughter Anne, the future 'lady of Dauntesey,' aged 2 years. She, however, was deprived for a time of the heirship to the estates by the birth, after her father's death, of a brother, who was named Edward. Alice Langford, the mother of Anne and Edward, belonged to the family of Langford of Berks, with whom, as we have seen (note on p. 232), the Dauntsey family were closely
connected by marriage. She was probably the sister of the Thomas Langford who, as we learn from the post-mortem inquisition of his father Edward (No. 38, 14 Edward IV.), was 34 years of age in the year 1474, and who, as we learn from the Coram Eege Roll of 2 Richard III., was holding the manor of Merden, Wilts, in trust for Edward Stradling during his minority.

Monuments of Sir Richard Atkins, Baronet, and his family.
In the remaining aisle of the old church, are some very sumptuous monuments, to the memory of Sir Richard Atkins, Bart. who died in 1689; and of his family. On a tomb of white marble, are recumbent figures of Sir Richard and his Lady; he is represented in armour, with a flowing peruke; she is habited in a long veil, which hangs down behind: the tomb is surrounded with iron palisades, and decorated with the arms of the Atkins family, and its alliances (fn. 23). Adjoining this tomb, on the east wall, is the monument of their three children, Henry, who died in 1677, aged 24; Rebecca, who died in 1661, aged 9; and Annabella, who died in 1670, aged 19. Under an arch supported by columns of white marble, of the Corinthian order, are their effigies as large as life. The son is represented sitting, in a Roman dress, with a flowing peruke. The daughters are standing, dressed in gowns, with full sleeves puckered; and plain stomachers.

12 Nov 1673 Henry St John, of Battersea, Surrey, Esq., & Lady Mary Rich, of Lee, co. Essex, Spinster, 21, parents dead; at Lee aforesaid.
Henry Viscount St. John.
This was the father of Lord Bolingbroke. In 1684, being then Mr. Henry St. John, he was tried for the murder of Sir William Estcourt, Bart. and was convicted. Bishop Burnet speaking, no doubt, of this affair, tells the story thus: That a young gentleman of a noble family, in the year 1684, being at supper with a large party, a sudden quarrel arose between him and another gentleman, very warm words passed, and swords were drawn, three persons were engaged in the rencounter, one of whom was killed on the spot, the other two were indicted for murder; it appeared uncertain by which the fatal wound was given, nor did the proof against either amount to more than manslaughter: yet the gentleman abovementioned being one of the two, was advised to confess the indictment, and to let sentence pass for murder. He was threatened with the utmost rigour of the law if he neglected to follow this advice; if he complied, he was promised a pardon. He thought it prudent to comply, and was convicted accordingly: but to his cost found, that his pardon was to be purchased at the high rate of 16,000 l.; one half of which the king converted to his own use; and bestowed the remainder upon two ladies who were in great favor. This is bishop Burnet's account (fn. 36). It appears, however, that after the conviction, a doubt arose, whether the king could pardon him.?The matter was much debated, and bishop Barlow wrote one of his cases of conscience upon the subject (fn. 37): he determines the point in the affirmative. It is said, that to obviate all doubts, the king granted him only a reprieve; in confirmation of this, no pardon appears to have been enrolled (fn. 38): the reprieve was for a long term of years, which the extreme old age which he attained rendered it probable that he would survive. In 1716 he was created Baron St. John of Battersea, and Viscount St. John, and died in 1742, as mentioned above, on the verge of ninety.

Long married secondly, Catherine, daughter of Sir John Thynne of Longleat . Long was the last of the family to own both manors of South Wraxall and Draycot together, and through the contrivances of his second wife Catherine, Sir Walter disinherited his son John from his first marriage, in favour of Walter, the eldest son from the second, but a compromise later led John to receive the estate at South Wraxall, and his half-brother received Draycot.
Another legend related by Aubrey, concerns a promise made by Catherine to her husband on his death-bed, that she would not remarry, but she soon afterwards married Sir Edward(or Hugh) Fox.
..."I have made inquiries from various sources, and find that Charles Fox of Bromfield purchased Gwernygoe in 1575, and devised it, in trust with other property, to his brother-in-law, Richard Leighton, for his son Edward, then an infant, and who was subsequently Sheriff of Montgomeryshire in 1617. Sir Edward Fox had three sons, Somerset Fox, 1 Thomas Fox, and Henry Fox, all born at Gwernygoe, between 1595 and 1606. His sons Henry and Thomas were married from Gwernygoe between 1620 and 3 (sic), the former to Anne, daughter of John Reynolds, and the latter to Jane, daughter of Arthur Pryce of Yaenor. Sir Edward Fox died at Gwernygoe about the end of 1627, and was, I have always understood, buried at Kerry, as were also his sons ...Sir Edward Fox,- Kt., of Cainhara and Gwernygoe, married four times.

Battersea...After the dissolution of monasteries, the manor was reserved in the hands of the crown; a lease of it was granted to Henry Roydon (fn. 8) , Esq. by queen Elizabeth, for twenty-one years, .... it was afterwards granted for the same term to his daughter, then Joan Holcroft (fn. 9)... An. 1610 (fn. 10) . In the year 1627, it was granted in reversion to Oliver St. John, Viscount Grandison (fn. 11).
Lord Grandison died in 1630, and was succeeded in that title, and in the Battersea estate, by William Villiers, his great-nephew, who died of a wound received at the siege of Bristol, An. 1644. Sir John St. John, Bart. nephew of the first lord Grandison, inherited Battersea; from him it passed in a regular descent to Sir Walter St. John, Bart. his nephew; to Sir Walter's son, Henry Viscount St. John; and to his grandson Henry Viscount Bolingbrooke, who, by an act of parliament passed before his father's death, was enabled to inherit his estate, notwith standing his attainder: the estate and manor continued in the St. John family till 1763, ...From: 'Battersea', The Environs of London: volume 1: County of Surrey (1792), pp. 26-48.

St. John family.
Battersea was long the residence, as well as the property, of the St. Johns; and many of the births, deaths, and marriages of that family are recorded in the parish register;
"The Lord Oliver St. John, buried Jan. 12. 1630-1."
"The Ladie Grandison, her name Jone, buried Mar. 10. 1630-1."
Oliver St. John, Viscount Grandison.
Oliver St. John was the first of the family who settled at Battersea; he married Joan, daughter and heir of Henry Roydon Esq. of that place, and widow of Sir William Holcroft. He was general of the forces in Ireland, and was lord high treasurer, and lord deputy of that realm; was created Viscount Grandison, of Ireland, by James I.; and in 1626, was made an English peer, by the title of Baron St. John: he died without issue. A monument to his memory, is fixed in the north wall of the church, ornamented with busts of himself and his lady, in white marble; over which are the arms and quarterings of St. John (fn. 32) impaling Roydon (fn. 33) , underneath is the following inscription:

Funeral of Sir John St. John.
In 1648, Sir John St. John (the nephew as I imagine of Lord Grandison (fn. 34) ) was buried at Battersea with such unusual pomp, that it excited the attention of the heralds, who commenced a prosecution against Mr. Walter St. John the executor, for acting so contrary to the usage of arms and the laws of heraldry.
In the British Museum (fn. 35) is a MS. deposition of William Riley, one of the heralds, who declares, that the funeral of the deceased was conducted in a manner so much above his degree, that the escutcheons were more than were used at the funeral of a duke; and that he never saw so many pennons but at the funeral of one of the blood royal; and that he considered such a precedent to be destructive of all distinction, order, and degree of honour and nobility. The burial of Sir John St. John is omitted in the Register.
"Sir Walter St. John, Bart. æt. 87, buried July 9, 1708."
Sir Walter St. John.
Sir Walter St. John, the third baronet of the family, succeeded his nephew Sir John, who died before he came of age. Sir Walter married one of the daughters of lord chief justice St. John: he was eminent for piety and moral virtues. The parish of Battersea is indebted to him for the foundation of a free-school, which he endowed in the year 1700 for twenty poor boys, and to which both he and his lady left farther sums towards apprenticing some of them. A portrait of Sir Walter is preserved in the school-room.
"Henry, the son of Mr. Walter St. John, baptized Oct. 17, 1652."
"The Right Honorable Henry Lord Viscount St. John, buried April 16, 1742."
Henry Viscount St. John.
This was the father of Lord Bolingbroke. In 1684, being then Mr. Henry St. John, he was tried for the murder of Sir William Estcourt, Bart. and was convicted. ..accordingly: but to his cost found, that his pardon was to be purchased at the high rate of 16,000 l.; one half of which the king converted to his own use; and bestowed the remainder upon two ladies who were in great favor. .... the king granted him only a reprieve; in confirmation of this, no pardon appears to have been enrolled (fn. 38): the reprieve was for a long term of years, which the extreme old age which he attained rendered it probable that he would survive. In 1716 he was created Baron St. John of Battersea, and Viscount St. John, and died in 1742, as mentioned above, on the verge of ninety.
"Henry, son of Henry St. John, Esq. baptized Oct. 10, 1678."
"Henry St. John, late Lord Viscount Bolingbroke, buried December 18, 1751."
Lord Bolingbroke.
These dates will serve to correct an inaccuracy in the Life of Lord Bolingbroke, in which it is asserted, that he died at the age of seventy-nine (fn. 39); this has led the editors of the Biographia (fn. 40) into an error, and has induced them to fix the date of his birth in 1672. They are inaccurate likewise in saying that his lady died many years before him, as will appear both by her epitaph, and the entry of her burial, in the register. Upon the death of his father, lord Bolingbroke became possessed of the paternal estate at Battersea, ... He died December 12th, 1751 (fn. 42) . His second wife was widow of the Marquis de Villette, and niece of the celebrated Mad. de Maintenon. She died a short time before her husband, and lies buried in the same vault with him in Battersea church; where, on the north wall, is a monument to their memory by Roubiliac, of grey and black marble: the upper part is ornamented with lord Bolingbroke's arms (fn. 43) . The inscription is on a black tablet, on each side of which are medallions with profiles in basso-relievo of lord and lady Bolingbroke, well executed, in white marble. The inscription is as follows:
"Here lies
Henry St. John,
In the reign of Queen Anne,
Secretary of War Secretary of State,
And Viscount Bolingbroke:
In the days of King George the first and King George the second,
Something more and better.
His attachment to Queen Anne,
Exposed him to a long and severe persecution;
He bore it with firmness of mind,
The enemy of no national party,
The friend of no faction;
Distinguished (under the cloud of a proscription,
which had not been entirely taken off)
By zeal to maintain the liberty,
And to restore the ancient prosperity,
of Great Britain.
He died the 12th of December,
1751, aged 73."
"In the same vault
are interred, the remains of
Mary Clara des Champs de Marcelly,
Marchioness of Villette, and Viscountess
Bolingbroke, of a noble family,
bred in the court of Lewis 14th.
She reflected a lustre on the former,
by the superior accomplishments of her mind;
She was an ornament to the latter,
by the amiable dignity and grace of her behaviour.
She lived, the honour of her own sex,
the delight and admiration of ours
: She dyed, an object of imitation to both:
With all the firmness that reason,
With all the resignation that religion,
Can inspire.
Aged 74 the 18th of March,
1750."
The last of the St. John family that was buried at Battersea, was an infant daughter of Lord Bolingbroke in 1762.
Bolingbroke House.
In 1763 the estate was alienated; and about fifteen years ago, the greater part of Bolingbroke-house was pulled down: ...: From: 'Battersea', The Environs of London: volume 1: County of Surrey (1792), pp. 26-48.

St. John, Oliver, Viscount Grandison and Baron Tregoz 1559-1630, lord deputy of Ireland, born in 1559, was the second son of Nicholas St. John (d. 1589) of Lydiard-Tregoz (or Liddiard Tregoze, as it is now spelt), Wiltshire, by his wife Elizabeth (d. 1587), daughter of Sir Richard Blount of Mapledurham, Oxfordshire. His mother was distantly related to Charles Blount, earl of Devonshire [q.v.], and on the father's side he was descended through a female line from the Grandisons (see G.E.C.'s Complete Peerage), and was related to the St. Johns, barons of Bletsho [see St. John, Oliver, first Earl of Bolingbroke].

The Lord Mayor of 1537, Sir Richard Gresham (died 1548), was brother of Lord Mayor John Gresham.
Richard Gresahm: Wikepedia
Gresham was born at Holt, Norfolk, a member of an ancient Norfolk family (see the article on his brother John Gresham).
By his first wife, Audrey Lynn (who died 28 Dec. 1522), he was the father of Sir Thomas Gresham.[1]
His daughter Christian married the first Sir John Thynne, steward of Edward Seymour, 1st Duke of Somerset, who built Longleat.[2] Gresham is thus an ancestor of the Marquesses of Bath.
Gresham was admitted a liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Mercers in 1507.[3] As a mercer, he was in partnership with his brother, John Gresham, in exporting textiles and importing grain from the continent. He supplied King Henry VIII with arras, velvets, and satins. Most of his trade was with the Low Countries, which were the most significant area for English overseas trade for most of the sixteenth century, and he amassed a large fortune. He became Sheriff of London and Middlesex in 1531[4] and was knighted the same year. On 19 May 1536, he was present at the execution of Anne Boleyn in the Tower of London. He was elected as Lord Mayor of London in 1537,[5] and on his death bed Cardinal Wolsey called him his "fast-friend". Gresham paid for the Cardinal's funeral.
He was elected as member of parliament for the City of London in 1539 and 1545.

The Manor Of Wornedale, alias Borden, lying in the southern part of this parish, and in Stockbury and Borden, had formerly possessors of the name of Wornedale; Richard de Wornedale owned it in the reign of Edward III. and left one son Thomas, and a daughter Maud, who on her brother's death unmarried, became his heir.
In later times it was owned by the family of Eve. Henry Eve, of Edwards, in Linsted, settled it in 1675, on his eldest son Henry, on his marriage with Dorothy, sister of James Ady, efq. of Barham, and their son Henry Eve, clerk, with Elizabeth his wife, sold it to Sir John Banks, bart. of Aylesford...

Made a Knight of the Bath in 1488
Ancestor of the Viscount Bolingbroke line.
From: Portculis
Date: 29 Jan 1998 10:00:33 GMT
5. Sir John St. John, Knight of the Bath, was found to be aged forty or more AT THE DEATH OF HIS MOTHER in 1482-3. As his father died in 1437, he must have been born shortly before his father's death. He married Alice Bradshaw, daughter of Thomas Bradshaw of the Haugh, Lancashire. Bartrum states that he married (2) Elizabeth, daughter of Wililam Fawr, son of Sir David Mathew of
Llandaf Court. I have no reason to doubt this, but all children are indicated to be by the first wife, Alice. Strangely, no inquisition or will has been found for this Sir John.
Sir John and Alice (Bradshaw) St. John also had a daughter, Anne St. John, who married, by 1493 (the birth year of their son and heir), Henry, Lord Clifford, "the Shepherd Lord."
FARLEY CHAMBERLAYNE
AND ST JOHN'S CHURCH
The monuments in the church present an interesting story in themselves. The tomb under the canopy is that of William St John, who was born at Farley in 1538, and buried there in 1609. ...One of his most interesting ancestors was Sir John St John, who was knighted by his cousin Henry VII in 1487, for having brought forces to the King's aid in the Lambert Simnel rebellion. He was later made Chamberlain to Margaret, Countess of Richmond, the King's mother, and was named in her will as one of her executors. Sir John was related to Henry through his grandmother, who married first Oliver St John, and after his death John Beaufort Duke of Somerset. Their daughter was Margaret, mother of Henry VII.
This link with the Tudor dynasty is commemorated on one of the black marble tombstones in the chancel, which bears the name of Oliver St John who died in 1689.
The St John family were Lords of the Manor for nearly two hundred years, and their manor house, all trace of which has vanished, stood on the ground to the north of the church. It was probably built between 1524 and 1538. ... the property passed to the distaff side on the death of the last male St John in 1699. His heirs, however, added the name of St John to their own of Midmay, and held the property until eventually it was sold ...

In 1086 FARLEY CHAMBERLAYNE was held .... before 1354, in which year Thomas Missenden, described as the king's groom, obtained a grant of free warren in Farley Chamberlayne. (fn. 17) He died about 1369, and his wife Isabel soon afterwards married Sir John Golafre, (fn. 18) who presented to the church of Farley Chamberlayne in 1378. (fn. 19) In 1394 Sir Edmund Missenden, son of Thomas and Isabel, died seised of the manor, leaving as his heir his son Bernard, who was under age, (fn. 20) and the next year the king granted the custody of the manor with the marriage of the heir to Sir Bernard Brocas, senior, and to Juliana widow of Sir Edmund. (fn. 21) Sir Bernard Brocas died in 1396, (fn. 22) and Juliana married as her second husband Sir Thomas Shelley, who held the manor in her right until he was beheaded for high treason in 1400. (fn. 23) ... (fn. 24) In 1406 Bernard son and heir of Edmund Missenden came of age, (fn. 25) but apparently did not succeed at once to the manor of Farley Chamberlayne, as in 1428 John Boys was stated to be holding half a knight's fee in Farley Chamberlayne which Nicholas de Ocle formerly held.

Katherine Missenden, daughter and heir of Bernard, married John Iwardby son of John Iwardby of Mapledurham, (fn. 27) and was followed by her son Nicholas Iwardby, who was confirmed in the lands of his maternal ancestor Thomas Missenden in 1449/50 and died in 1462. (fn. 28) His son and heir John Iwardby granted the manor in 1475 to Roger Gery, sub-dean of the college of Wallingford (co. Berks.), (fn. 29) who in 1482 regranted it to his son John Iwardby, junior, in tail. (fn. 30) On the death of the latter in 1525 his daughter Joan St. John, widow of John St. John, inherited the manor, (fn. 31) and made a settlement of it in 1544 on herself for life with remainder to her son John St. John and his wife Elizabeth in tail male. (fn. 32) The manor thus passed into the hands of the St. John family, with whom it remained for three centuries...

In 1567 John St. John dealt with the manor by recovery. (fn. 33) He was followed by his second son (fn. 34) William St. John, who continued to hold the manor until his death in 1609, (fn. 35) when it passed to his son Henry. (fn. 36) Henry died in 1621, leaving a son and heir John, (fn. 37) who came of age in 1624, but died three years later. (fn. 38) His only son, born after his death, lived only one day, dying on 25 February 1628, and the manor consequently passed to his brother Oliver St. John. (fn. 39) From that date Farley Chamberlayne followed the descent of the manor of King's Somborne (q.v.) until 1830, when it was purchased of the St. John - Mildmay family by Mr. Thomas Woodham.
