A List of Surrey Brasses: Surrey Archeologcial Society
Proceedings Society of Antiquaries, 2 S., XII, 269.
"V. Effigies of William Heron, esq., justice of the peace, 1562, in armour, and wife Alice, the latter much mutilated, with foot inscription. Now on wall of chancel. Aubrey (II, 15) notes this brass as "at the entrance of the altar rails, on a brass plate, is a man in armour and a woman, both praying ; over him are these arms, a chevron charg'd with three cinquefoils between three herons, and underneath this inscription." Sometime during the 18th century the brass disappeared from the church and was not heard of again until the year 1887, when it was placed in the hands of the late Rev. W. F. Greeny, F.S.A., the well-known writer on foreign brasses, for the purposes of an exhibition, with an understanding that, if identified, it could be restored to the church from which it had been taken. Mr. Greeny exhibited the originals before the Society of Antiquaries on 13 December, 1888, and communicated the following note: 1 " In April, 1887, Mr. L. A. B. Waller sent the knight, the bust of the lady (all that remains of her figure), and the inscription to me, to be exhibited in Norwich at an exhibition I had of rubbings and other kindred things. Mr. Waller's friend, into whose possession it had come before Mr. Waller purchased it at the sale of his effects, had a suspicion that it came from a Norfolk church, and it was hoped I might find its original home and restore it. A rubbing was taken at my exhibition and sent to Mr. Stephenson, who identified the brass as belonging to Croydon Church. Mr. Waller writes me, 'The recent history of the brass is this, at the sale of the effects of a friend of mine, W. C. Jourdain, who died in 1868, I bought it. He had obtained it from a friend of his and of mine, T. Gr. Waller (no relative), solicitor, of the Inner Temple and of Cuckfield, Sussex, who died suddenly in 1846, in his thirty-sixth year. Mr. Jourdain used to say that T. G. Waller obtained it from a client.'I am glad that the original resting-place of the monument has been found, and that the vicar of Croydon has guaranteed to Mr. Mill Stephenson and to myself to refix it."
In accordance with this guarantee the vicar, the late Rev. J. M. Braithwaite, caused the brasses to be fixed on the southern inner face of the north chancel pier. William Heron is represented slightly inclined to the right, bareheaded with short hair and with beard and moustaches, his head resting on his helmet and his feet on a mound covered with flowering plants. His armour consists of a gorget of plate, a breastplate with a tapul or projecting ridge, shoulder pieces with straight up- right guards, and small elbow pieces, alike in shape and size. The taces are short, being worn over a long skirt of mail escalloped on the bottom edge ; to the lowermost lame of the taces are attached two narrow rounded tuiles, the fastenings of which are very clearly shown. The knee pieces are large and globular with plates behind, and the sabbatons are broad and round-toed. The hands are without gauntlets and no spurs are shown. A long narrow sword with small pommel and quillons hangs on the left side from a plain narrow belt, and the hilt of a dagger appears on the right. Frills are shown at the neck and wrists. Of his wife Alice only the upper portion remains. It represents her wearing the Paris head or French hood, small ruff, under-gown with striped sleeves terminating in frills, and over-gown with turned-back collar and short sleeves puffed and slashed at the shoulders. Below the effigies is the inscription in four lines in black letter: "Here lies William Heron Esq. and Justys of the Peaxs and Alse his wife which William deceased the 4th day of January in ye yere of our Lorde MCCCCCX11 in whose soule God take to his mercy Amen." The male effigy is 23 inches and the fragment of the female 7i inches in height, the inscription plate measur- ing 21 by 4i inches. The brass is reproduced in Surrey Archaeological Collections, X, 135, and the head of the lady only in XVI, 46, but erroneously assigned to Elizabeth Heron, 1544. William Heron, "justys of the peaxs," eldest son of Thomas and Elizabeth Heron (No. IV), died 4 January, 1562-3, without issue, and was buried on the 10th, the entry in the register being in 1563 "Mr. Wyllm Heron justyce was buryed the x day of January." The maiden name of his wife Alice is unknown and all attempts to trace it have so far failed. She did not long remain a widow, for on 3 August, 1563, the register records her marriage to Oliver St. John, esq., thus : "1563. Mastr Olyver Sent John Squyer and Maystrys Alice Heron, wydo, ware maryed the iii day of August."

In the mid C12, Redlynch belonged to Henry Lovel of Castle Cary (d 1194). The estate continued in the possession of Henry Lovel’s descendants until the late C14, when it seems to have been acquired by James FitzJames (d c 1391) (VCH 1999). James FitzJames’ great-grandson, Sir John, Chief Justice of the King’s Bench, owned a house at Redlynch which in 1538 included a great chamber over a parlour. Sir John FitzJames died c 1542, and was succeeded by his cousin, Sir Nicholas, who improved the house. In 1617, Sir Nicholas’ nephew, John FitzJames, sold Redlynch to Sir Robert Gorges of Bristol, with whose family the property remained until it was conveyed in 1672 to Sir Stephen Fox in settlement of a debt (ibid).

Also a member of the titled aristocracy was the nun Margaret Scrope. She was the granddaughter of Henry, Fourth Baron Scrope of Bolton, Yorkshire. Her father was Robert Scrope, and Margaret was related through marriage to the Countess of Oxford.[77] At Barking, Margaret served as precentrix in 1527, and was a “lady of the pension” in the mid-1530s.[78] The fact that she was sent or chose to go to Barking Abbey from Yorkshire suggests the abbey still held a certain prestige or cachet among the English aristocracy, even at this late date in its history. Sturman suggests that after the dissolution Margaret went to live with her sister, Elizabeth Peche, in Kent because she appears in Elizabeth’s will which was proved in 1544. Elizabeth left “to my sister Dame Margaret Scrope sometime nun at Barking five pounds sterling.”[79] However, mere mention in a will in no way proves the two women lived together after Barking’s dissolution, and furthermore, Elizabeth’s will must have been written more than a year before it was proved, for according to Court of Augmentations records, Margaret died in 1543.[80] Margaret was also known to have given away one of the books previously in Barking’s library, The Mirror of the Life of Christ, to an Agnes Goldwell, who may have been one of her sister’s servants.[81]

A Who's Who of Tudor Women:
ANNE DORMER (1525-1603)
Anne Dormer was the daughter of William Dormer of Eythrope, Buckinghamshire (1503-May 17,1575) and Mary Sidney (d.1542). In May 1558 she married Sir Walter Hungerford of Farleigh (c.1526-1596). They had four children, Lucy (b.1560), Edmund (b.1562), Susan (b.1564), and Jane (b.1566) but in 1570, Hungerford sued Anne for divorce, claiming that she had committed adultery with William "Wild" Darrell of Littlecote (1540-1589) between 1560 and 1568 and had had a child by him. Sir Walter also accused her of trying to poison him in 1564. Surviving letters from Anne to her "good Will" give some foundation to the charges but Anne was acquitted and awarded costs (£250) in the law suit. Hungerford refused to pay or to support his wife while they were separated (he did agree to take her back) and spent three years in Fleet Prison as a result. In a letter written in 1570 to "Doll" (Dorothy) Essex, her sister Jane's lady in waiting, Anne complained that she had not seen her children in over a year. She also wrote to her sister at this time. In 1571, Anne received a license to travel to Louvain to visit her dying grandmother (Jane Newdigate, Lady Dormer, who died on July 7). In August of that year Anne's sister (Jane Dormer, duchess of Feria), asked that the license be extended from six months to two years. Anne took over her grandmother's household in Louvain after Lady Dormer's death and remained there. In 1573, she was granted a pension of 1,100 livres a year by the king of Spain and in 1583 he granted her a further pension of fifty escudos a month. Anne became friends with Margaret of Parma as well as with the other English exiles living in Flanders. After her only son died (the date of his death varies, depending on the source, from 1583 to 1587), Anne claimed that Hungerford was attempting to defraud their daughters of their portion. In his 1595 will, Hungerford left two farms to Margery Bright, his mistress for some years and the mother of four children by him, the last born after Hungerford's death. Upon hearing a rumor that Anne was dead, Hungerford married Margery shortly before he died with the result that both Anne and Margery sued to establish the right to inherit as Hungerford's widow. There was never any question but that the victory would go to Anne. During that same period, Anne involved herself in politics in Flanders, urging her sister, the widowed duchess of Feria, to leave Spain and travel to Brussels. She wrote a number of letters on the subject and seems to have been convinced that the duchess's journey would alarm Queen Elizabeth and turn the tide in King Philip's favor in the ongoing war in the Netherlands. Anne's nephew, Don Lorenzo, 2nd duke of Feria, took steps to thwart this intrigue and Anne seems to have given up the plan around 1599. As far as is known, Anne never returned to England. She died in Louvain.
Adult children:
Lucy Hungerford (1560-1627), married first to Sir John St. John, with issue; secondly to Sir Anthony Hungerford, with issue
Edmund Hungerford (1562-1587)
Susan Hungerford (born 1564, date of death unknown), married first to Michael Ernley, with issue; married secondly to John Moring, and thirdly to Sir Carew Reynolds
Jane Hungerford (born 1566, date of death unknown), married in 1587 to Sir John Karne, without issue
Lady Hungerford may also have had an illegitimate child by William Darrell, also named William Darrell.

A Who's Who of Tudor Women:
JANE WADHAM (1517+- 1544+)
Jane Wadman was the daughter of Sir Nicholas Wadham, of Maryfield, Governor of the Isle of Wight (c.1474-1541) and his second of four wives, Margaret Seymour (b.c.1479), making her the niece of Queen Jane Seymour. She was a nun at Romsey Abbey in Hampshire, under Abbess Elizabeth Ryprose, at the time it was dissolved on July 11, 1538, as was her half sister, Katherine (b.1511), who was subprioress. Jane was sexton, but she had no real vocation. Because ex-religious were required to remain chaste, a ruling retained until 1549 and revived from 1553-1558, Jane had to obtain a “capacity” to return to the world. According to some accounts, she claimed that prior to becoming a nun she had gone through a private form of marriage with John Foster or Forster (d.1557+), but then was forced to take her vows, and that John Foster had been forced to become a priest. Foster's father was steward at Romsey and John is variously called steward and chaplain there. He received a number of properties after the dissolution. Geoffrey Baskerville's English Monks and the Suppression of the Monasteries states that Jane married Foster after the surrender of Romsey in 1539. In any case, from 1538 Jane and John lived together as man and wife and they had three children, Edward, Andrew, and Jane. By June 1541, however, concerns about the validity of their marriage had caused Foster to separate from Jane. At that time, she asked for a ruling on the subject and a special commission of two bishops was formed. Records are scarce, but Jane was again asking that commissioners look into the validity of her marriage in April 1544. Foster, meanwhile was the incumbent at Baddesley by 1543. One account has Jane living there with him, presumably after the validity of their marriage had been established to everyone’s satisfaction. Baskerville cites a reference to Jane Foster, gentlewoman, in May 1558, in the belief that this was Jane Wadham.

A Who's Who of Tudor Women:
AMY CLARKE (d.1575+)
Amy Clarke was the daughter of Valentine Clarke or Clerke (d.c.1540) and Elizabeth Brydges (c.1510-1568). She married first Edmund Horne of Sarsdon, Oxfordshire (c.1490-1553), a gentleman pensioner, and second Sir James Mervyn or Marvyn of Fonthill Gifford, Wiltshire (1529-May 1, 1611). She had one daughter by each husband, Elizabeth Horne (c.1549-1599) and Lucy Mervyn (c.1565-1609/10). Amy Clarke Mervyn or Marvin is found on lists of ladies at court in 1558/9 and 1567/8.

* Copied from Harl. MSS. 380, f. 96, to which is added the following note: " This was transcribed out of an ancient writing in parchment, remaining in the possession of Sir Francis Carew, of Bedington, in the county of Surrey, Knight of the Bath, amongst his evidences belonging to that manor, and was compared with the original upon Thursday the 22d day of August 1644." This Will merits attention from the absence of those religious bequests and that solicitude relative to the disposition of the body, which are almost always to be found in the testamentary dispositions of that period. Not a word is said about his funeral, nor is there any other religious or charitable direction than the slight one towards the end: as the character of the testator has not been preserved, it is difficult to account for this omission on any other grounds than that he had previously made those arrangements which formed so important an object of the attention of his contemporaries.
His will of 28 Aug 1432, and contains bequests to his son Nicholas, Mary and Johanne, daughters of his son Thomas, daughters Isabel and daughter Elizabeth Bukton, with residue to his wife Mary (sic = Mercy), who was one of the executors (PCC 16 Luffenham, transcribed in Testamenta Vetusta, p. 260-3 ).

(1: 155) notes he proved his age 4 Henry VI [1426], establishing 1405 as a
birthdate, but this is not possible. Likely the note should read 4 Henry V

1444-5, and 1448-9. In 1440, he quitclaimed to "Mercy, who was his father's

Another brass in Beddington Church is attributed to him and includes his
sister, Isabel.
Married Agnes, daughter of Thomas Hayton, of Batilles and Westburgh, co.
Surrey. At his death in 1432, Agnes was married to her 2nd husband, John Exham
or Hexham, and by 1450 was married to her 3rd husband, Thomas Sayer, with whom
she conveyed Westburgh to her daughters Mercy and Joan and their husbands,
Richard Ford and William Saunders.
a. JOAN CAREW. Born in or before 1417 (being under age 15 at the time of
her grandfather's will); died 1470. Joan was named as the heir of her
grandfather in his will to his manor of Warlingham, co. Surrey, later called
Carews. In default of Joan's issue the manor was then to descend to her sister
Mercy, with contingent remainders to Nicholas and Isabel, son and daughter of
the testator. Joan married William Saunders, together with whom she brought a
suit against William Selman and William Bradford, trustees appointed by her
grandfather, to oblige them to surrender the estate to her, she being more than
15 years old, the age to which she was entitled to the estate. She deposed
that in spite of this fact and of the will of her grandfather, produced by her
grandmother Mercy, the trustees refused to give it up. The lands were
surrendered to her in 1451. Warlington (Carew) Manor descended to her
descendants.
b. MERCY CAREW. Under age 15 at the time of her grandfather's will.

4. ELIZABETH CAREW. Born in or shortly after 1398; died 25 Sep 1410 and was
buried in Beddington Church. Her now lost monumental brass referred to her as
'Elizabetha filia Nicholai et Mariae' the latter name which should read
'Merciae' and wife of 'Thomae Lewknore.' Sir Thomas Lewkenor was one of the
supervisors of the will of her father. Based upon her likely birthdate she was
clearly a childbride and no issue was likely.
5. PHILIPE CAREW. Died 1414 and was buried in Beddington Church. Her
monumental brass there calls her the daughter of Nicholas and Mercy Carreu and
includes the names of 7 brothers and 6 sisters who had predeceased her.
