Brass: (Oxenbridge chapel) Robert Oxenbridge (d1482) and his wife Anne (d1493). Only a leg and both feet of the former remain. Originally on the floor, they were mounted on wood and let into the back of an unrelated late C15 tomb (see below) in 1928 (Meads).
Anne Oxenbridge brass, Brede Church
The altar tomb was mutilated about the middle of the last century. Originally there was a kneeling figure with a scroll, thought to be Elizabeth Etchingham -first wife of Sir Goddard, the Brede Giant.
The missing brasses were replaced by others originally on the floor. They show Anne Oxenbridge (D.1493) in full gown with hands in prayer. Of Robert her husband, only the feet and a leg remain.
The latin inscription reads:
"Here lies Robert Oxenbridge Esq and Anne his wife. He died on 9th of March 1487 and Anne died 27th of February 1493. On whose souls and all those of the faithful departed may God have mercy. Amen"
There is also a small brass to their daughters Margery and Katherine.

Brisbane Courier Friday 3rd June
Mr. J. E. Broadbent, I.S.O., barrister of the Supreme Court and Parliamentary Draftsman of Queensland, is another clever son of this State whose able service together with his integrity i and kindliness have won for him a high place in the esteem of a succession of Governments, of his legal and 'official conferences and of the public generally.
He is the son of the late Mr.'Kendall Broadbent, formerly of the Queensland Museum, and was bom at Kelvin Grove, at the State school of which suburb he received his primary educa tion. Later he attended, by scholarship, the Brisbane Grammar School, where he passed the Sydney University matriculation examination, and also obtained a two years 'extension trustees' scholarship. Then, as an external student of the University of Queensland, he passed examinations in ¡English and in Logic and Psychology. He also passed the necessary examina tion and entered the Public Service in 1900. Four years later he was transferred to the Justice Department, where he successively occupied the positions of first clerk, secretary to the Representative of the Government In the Legislative Council, Parliamentary Secretary and Certifying Barrister under the Friendly Societies Acts, Assistant Parliamentary Draftsman, and, finally Parliamentary Draftsman on the translation to the Supreme Court bench In 1927 of the late Mr, Justice J. L. Woolcock. He was admitted as a barrister in 1919.
As Parliamentary Draftsman, Mr. Broadbent has done notable work, and, in addition, since 1927 has been the sole editor of the Queensland Statutes volume. Mr. Broadbent acted as private secretary to the late Mr. T. J. Ryan while Premier, and also has ac- companied several other Premiers and Ministers of the State to Common- wealth and State Conferences. At Melbourne, in May and June of last year, he was a member of the legal drafting' committee appointed in connection with the legislation which has since been enacted pursuant to the Premiers' Rehabilitation Plan, and at Which conference Queensland was rep- resented by the Premier (Mr. Moore) and the Treasurer (Mr. W. H. Barnes). Mrs.'Broadbent was formerly Miss Daisy Stewart Nelson, daughter of the late Mr. A. B. Nelson and* grand- daughter of the late Mr. George Stewart, of Wilston, Brisbane.
The Brisbane Courier 17 June 1914.
The marriage of Mr. Joseph Edward Broadhent (only son of the late Mr. J. Kendell Broadbent, and of Mrs. Broadbent, Albion) to Miss Daisy Stewart Nelson (only daughter of the late Mr. Alexander B. Nelson, of Bethania Junction, and granddaughter of Mr. George Stewart, Athol, Wilston) was celebrated at Melrose, Brunswick-street, New Farm, the residence of the aunt of the bride (Miss Isabel Walker), on June 10. The ceremony took place in the drawing-room, which was beautifully decorated with white roses, palms, and a large wedding hell. The bride, who was given away by her grandfather (Mr. G. Stewart), wore a travelling dress of Wedgwood blue crepe de Chine, artistically draped in tunic style, with rich black lace, jewelled in tones of Tango nnd blue. She also wore a black Pnris hat, with long Tonga plume and a smart travelling coat of hlnck satin, finished in shades of Tongo and blue. Miss Edna Cooke (cousin of the bride) acted as bridesmaid, and wore a dainty frock of cream satin and a pretty hat. Mr. George Smith (Thrums, Scotland, cousin of the bride)was best man. The hostess (Miss Isabel Walker) wore a coat and skirt of heather tweed, and a French toque. Mrs. J. Cooke (Toowoomba, aunt of the bride) wore a gown of flecked grey tweed and a becoming hat In the same shade. Mrs. W. Stewart (Macalister, aunt of the bride), navy blue coat and skirt, with velvet toque. Mrs. Broadbent (mother of the bridegroom), costume of black silk, with toque to harmonise. Rev. S. I. Alden, who performed the ceremony, had been an esteemed friend of the bride's late parents, and many of the guests had been present at their marriage more than 20 years ago. After the ceremony a champagne dejeuner was served in, the dining room, where the wedding presents (which were valuable and bandBomo and included several cheques) were displayed. The usual toasts were honoured. Miss Naneo Ebbs played Mendelssohn's "Wedding March." Mr. and Mrs. Broadbent left by motor to join the Otranto en route to Sydney and Tasmania for the honeymoon.

SIR ROGER NEWBURGH, KNT.
Roger Newburgh, of Dorsetshire, Knight, 2d August 1514. My body to be buried in the Abbey Church of Bury. To my good brother Nicholas Wadham, Knight, one hundred sheep; my aunt Dame Jane Bolney, of Wylton ; to Sir John Marney and my daughter Christian his wife xx /.; and I constitute them my executors. Proved 30th October 1515
William Newburgh...married about 1460 CHRISTIAN GOUVIS, daughter of Sir Walter Gouvis, Knt.; she died 9 Dec. 1491, her inquisition post mortem stating her son and heir Roger Newburgh to be twenty-eight years of age. (I.P.M., Chancery Series 2, vol. 7, no. 70.) (P) Children: JOHN, "the elder", b. about 1461, was heir to his grandfather in April 1484, but d. 11 Oct. 1484, his wife Joane dying without issue the next day, 12 Oct. 1484. ..... ii. SIR ROGER, b. in 1463, on the death of his elder brother succeeded to the ancestral Newburgh estates. Engaging in military pursuits, he was knighted 31 Oct. 1494, at the creation of the Duke of York (afterwards King Henry VIII.), and from a reference in his will it seems like that he accompanied this monarch in his invasion of France in 1514. In 1515 he was appointed sheriff of Somerset and Dorset, and dying 27 Sept. 1515, was buried in the Abbey Church of Bury St. Edmunds, the grandest monastery in England. As he left issue only a daughter, all the ancient Newburgh estates passed out of the family name to her descendants; but certain unentailed estates, which he had acquired, he deeded to Newburgh relativesl among them he gave the manor of Othfrauncis with 204 acres in Netherbury, 184 acres in Kyngeston, and 40 acres in Bryan's Puddle to his kinsman (own-cousin) Walter Newborough and Elizabeth his wife and their issye. (Hutchins' "History of Dorset", vol. 1, p. 429.) His will [is] dated 2 Aug. 1514, probated 30 Oct. 1515. He m. about 1492, ELIZABETH WADHAM, daughter of Sir John Wadham, Knt., whose will in 1501 mentions "my daughter Newberow". (P.C.C., 11 Blamyr.) (P) Child: 1. CHRISTIAN, b. in 1494, sole child and heiress, d. 7 Aug. 1517; m. in 1512, SIR JOHN MARNY, KNT. They had two daughters who as coheiresses inherited the ancient Dorsetshire estates of the Newburgh family.
Christian, the sole heiress of Sir Roger Newburgh, carried the estate in 1514, to her husband, Sir John Marney, Lord Marney, and her second daughter, and eventual heiress, Elizabeth Marney, marrying Thomas, Lord Howard, of Bindon, conveyed it, with several other considerable estates in Dorsetshire, amongst which was the manor of Bindon, to the Howards, from whom, as stated above, it was purchased in 1641, by Humphrey Weld.

Local Families
Maskelyne
During Tudor times, the Maskelyne family were both a significant landlord and landowner in Purton, having inherited rights granted by the last Abbot of Malmesbury Abbey to the Pulley or Pulleyne family, from whom they descended on the distaff side. The Reverend Dr Nevil Maskelyne (1732-1811) who was, in 1765, appointed as the Astronomer Royal, was a noteworthy member of this family who were involved in Purton life for over four centuries from the 1500s. Though born in London, his grave is in Purton churchyard. A Miss Maskelyne lived in the village until her death in the 1960s aged over a century.

By this date he had married Magdalen Vaughan, sister of Stephen Vaughan, the King's agent in the Netherlands,2 and the burial of " Mrs Mawdlyn Lodge " recorded in the parish register of St. Michael's, Cornhill, July 26, 1548, is undoubtedly that of Sir Thomas' wife.8 Her monument was probably that described as follows in Strype's Stow :

Since Sir Thomas Lodge was buried in St. Mary Aldermary with his third wife Anne, Magdalen Lodge must have been a widow when Sir Thomas married her.

Proved 25 July by OLIVER GITTONS exor. named in the will.
...Although he inherited Batailles and other estates in Surrey from his father, William later acquired other properties outside the county. He bought the Manor of Cardens with lands in the villages of Cliff, Higham, Cooling and Frindsbury in North Kent. This manor had belonged to the Charterhouse1 and after the suppression of the monastery the manor was granted to Thomas Gittons,2 Citizen and Vintner of London, who was at once granted a licence to alienate the manor to Sir Oliver Ledder. Thomas Gittons died in 1543; his will mentioned his wife Joan, five children and brother David. William Saunder's will records that Cardens and neighbouring lands were bought by William from Sir Oliver Ledder and David Gittons. William bequeathed the manor to his wife Joan for life; he had in fact married as his second wife the widow of Thomas Gittons, once owner of Cardens. William's eldest son inherited Cardens after the death of Joan. Harshing Marsh in Cliff parish was left to his other sons, Francis and Erasmus. William had bought the marsh in November 1546, which was probably about the date that he acquired the other Kent property.
....It is uncertain whether Joan, William Saunder's second wife, was the mother of any of his children. The Saunder pedigree dated 1679 compiled at the College of Arms and reproduced by T. Homer-Saunders, names only William's first wife and five of his eight children. All these five are recorded as children of the first wife. Francis, the youngest son (omitted from the pedigree), was alive in 1546, his father could not have married his second wife until after the death in 1543 of her former husband. It seems unlikely therefore that any of the children were issue of the second marriage. William's widow only mentioned one of his children, Catherine, in her will; Catherine was there described as "my daughter Spilman" wife of "my son Spilman of Narborough." Catherine was bequeathed a gilt cup and her husband a silver goblet and a pair of sables. Small bequests were also made to Catherine's daughter, Anne Kervill. These gifts were practically the sole bequests made by Joan Saunder beyond those left to her children by Thomas Gittons and their families, and were in all probability made because Joan was living with the Spelmans at Narborough. The bulk of Joan's property was left to her two sons, Oliver and Albey Gittons, both of whom had been mentioned in the will of Thomas Gittons. Oliver Gittons lived at Ewell (his house was recorded in the Survey of 1577) and he and his wife were buried there in 1615 and 1618 respectively. William Saunder bequeathed Oliver a gown "furred with jennytts, my velvet jerkin and my cloke and a paier of my hosen." William Saunder's five daughters had ten husbands between them and all five had married at the time he made his will. The eldest daughter Mary was left a widow with a young family by the early death of her husband, Nicholas Lusher. She remained a widow for over forty years, continuing to live at her husband's Manor of
Shoelands at Puttenham, Surrey. Her only son Nicholas was knighted in 1603.
The other four of William's daughters all married into Norfolk families. Urith, probably the second daughter, married John Palgrave of Berningham Northwood.

C 1/118/34 Rauf Bygod, knight, and Dame Alice, his wife, previously
the wife of Richard Conyers, knight. v. Henry, lord Scrope, William
Bulmers, knight, and Sir Rauff Fitzrandall, feoffees to uses, and Sir
Rauff Bewes, knight.: Messuages and lands in Cowton: York.
Sir Ralph Bigod's mother was Elizabeth, the dau. of the 4th Lord
Scrope of Bolton. The "Henry, lord Scrope" referred to in the
document was probably Sir Ralph's first cousin Henry, 6th Lord Scrope
of Bolton (d. 1506). Or it could be the 6th Lord's son Henry, 7th
Lord Scrope of Bolton.
"William Bulmers, knight" was probably Sir William Bulmer of Wilton,
Yorks (d. 1531), or his third son Sir William Bulmer, of Elmeden, co.
Durham, who had on 9 May 1498 a dispensation to marry Elizabeth
Elmeden, granddaughter of "Sir Richard and Alice Conyers of S.
Cowton." [H.S.P. Yorkshire Pedigrees, p.79]
"Sir Rauff Bewes, knight" was probably Sir Ralph Bowes of Streatlam
(d. 1512), husband of "Margery, da. and coh. of Sir Richard Conyers of
South Cowton" [HOP article on their son Sir Robert Bowes, of South
Cowton]
In answer to your question, in the current draft of the forthcoming 3rd edition of Plantagenet Ancestry, Sir Ralph Bigod's 2nd wife is identified as Alice, widow of Sir Richard Conyers. In the account of the Bowes family, Alice, wife of Sir Richard Conyers, is further identified as the daughter of John Wycliffe, Esq., of Wycliffe. Alice Conyers' identity as a Wycliffe presumably explains why the Conyers and Wycliffe arms are found impaled together in the old Castle Tower at South Cowton.

Footnote
Charles Francis Falcon Chamberlain was the fourth and youngest son of Sir Henry Chamberlain, 1st Baronet, British Consul-General and Chargé d’Affaires at Rio de Janeiro, and his second wife, Anne Eugenia, the daughter of William Morgan of London. He was born at Baker Street, London, on 11 October 1826, and was nominated a Cadet for the Bombay Service by the Earl of Ripon on the recommendation of Charles Chaplin, Esq., in 1846, having previously held a commission in H.M’s 44th Regiment of Foot from August 1844 to June 1845. He disembarked at Bombay from the Duke of Cornwall on 18 June 1846, and was directed to do duty with the 9th Bombay Native Infantry at Nasik, but before the year was out, he exchanged at his own request with Lieutenant Dods in to the 26th Bombay N.I. at Ahmedabad. In April 1848, he was reported as having gained a colloquial proficiency in Hindustani and was noted as ‘a smart officer and attentive in his duties’. In May 1849, on the formation of the Punjab Frontier Force, he was appointed Adjutant of the 5th Punjab Cavalry. He joined the regiment at Mooltan and served with them on the Dera Ismail Khan frontier until March 1851, when he returned to Europe due to failing health.
On his return to India in 1853 he was promoted Lieutenant and rejoined the 26th Bombay N.I. at Ahmednuggur. ... Chamberlain subsequently took part in the forced march to Boorzgoon, where a large quantity of enemy stores were captured, and afterwards participated in the battle of Kooshab and was present at the capture of Mohammerah, which fell without the use of troops after naval bombardment. During the Persian Expedition he received the first of his eight mentions in despatches. He remained in Persia at Outram’s disposal until the June 1857, when he returned to India and was appointed to the command of the regimental depot at Poona...
In early 1858, he took part in operations against the Bheels in the Deccan and was wounded at the battle of Mandawa. ... taking part in the actions of Selimpur, Sandila, Jamo, Purwa, Simri, Bira and Daundia-Khera, ‘besides many minor affairs, and repeatedly distinguishing himself’. In the course of these services Chamberlain was mentioned in despatches no less than five times ...He was further rewarded with promotion to Brevet Major on attaining the rank of Captain, which he did on being admitted to the Bombay Staff Corps in February 1861. ...
In October 1862, Sir Hugh Rose wrote to Chamberlain’s distinguished brother, Neville (See Lot 92): ‘You will be very glad to hear that your brother Charles did very well in the command of the Muzbees, as he deserves a reward for his excellent conduct in the field and was suited to the command of the Mooltanee Cavalry, I gave it to him.’ ..... ‘I am here [in Delhi] on a visit to my brother Crawford (See Lot 94), and all four of us brothers managed to meet, not having done so for the past twenty-six years.’ The fourth and eldest brother was Colonel Thomas Chamberlain, a city Magistrate at Lucknow.
The fraternal reunion took place at Crawford’s house, and on 14 January 1863, Neville wrote to their mother from Government House, Lahore: ‘You will long ago have heard from others of the meeting of your four Indians at Delhi, but I do not think I can do better than refer to that happy event. The whole time we were together was one continued round of fun and mirth, and even when we left the drawing room we used to have a second meeting in Charlie’s room, and it was midnight ere we broke up. Our childhood’s pranks at school, and, I am ashamed to say, at home, - anything that gave a point to fun, was raked up and gone over again, and Hindoo Rao’s house never resounded before to such peals of laughter. Crawford and Charlie being of course the great promoters of it, whilst old Tom and I acted more as audience. In short, we were boys again.’
In November 1863, Charles Chamberlain returned to the command of the 23rd Pioneers and proceeded with them on field service in the Umbeyla Campaign against fanatics in the Sittana area. ...
‘On the morning of the 16th, 400 sabres of the 11th Bengal Cavalry and Guide Corps, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Dighton Probyn, V.C. [See Lot123], arrived from camp, .... General Gavrock in his dispatch writes: ‘I would draw His Excellency’s attention to the mention made by the Brigadier of the good service rendered by the 23rd Pioneers under the command of Captain Chamberlain, who was wounded at its head, displaying the accustomed courage of those who bear his name.’
At the conclusion of the Umbeyla campaign, Chamberlain went with his regiment to Peshawar where it served, apart from three months at Cherat, until October 1867..... in June of the following year, he was promoted Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel and created a Companion of the Bath on 14 August 1868. He and his Pioneers were principally employed in 1869-70, road building in the Agror Valley and at other places in Hazara. Lieutenant-Colonel Charles Chamberlain died suddenly on 31 October 1870, at Ambala whilst on leave.

(1) Margaret, d. 1463, dau. of Sir William Stourton, the Speaker, and (2), 1468, Katherine (d. 1473), dau. and heir of Thomas Payne of Payneshay, Devon, widow of John Stourton, M.P., of Preston-Plucknet, and of Sir John Beynton, M.P. He was brother of Nicholas Carent, dean of Wells, d. 1467, and of John Carent, senr. (d. 1478). William's son John Carent junr., was M.P. Dorset 1453.
Eschr. Som. and Dorset, 1421-2; sheriff 1427-8, 1434-5, 1440-1; member of the council for Bruton Priory 1430; eschr. Devon, 1441; sheriff, Som. and Dorset, 1446-7, 1450-1 pricked after election to Parliament; J.P.

A popular man, no partisan or patronage hunter, but closely allied with his bro. and the church.
He was pardoned in 1437, "of Thomer, Som., esq., late sheriff, farmer of Henxstrigge and Charleton, late eschr. of Som. and Dorset" (m. 24); and in 1446, 1452, Nov. 1455, Jan 1458 (m. 34) and Dec 1471--always of Thomer or Tomer...As a Lancastrian he was summoned to the Great Council 1455, for Dorset...died 8 Apr 1476 when John aged 40 and more, was his son and heir.
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 Stourtonf. 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.
Monumental Brass at St Nicholas, Hentsridge. 1476.
In Henstridge church is a fine monument bearing the effigies of William Carent, eldest son of William Carent and Alice Toomer, and Margaret Stourton his wife. On the cornice of the canopy over the tomb are shields bearing - Toomer, Carent and Toomer quarterly, Carent impaling Stourton. Bishop Beckington in 1463 granted forty days indulgence to all true penitents who should make a pilgrimage to this tomb. The effigies of his brother John, with those of his two wives, were lately to be seen lying on the floor of Marnhull church in a neglected condition ; but they have now been replaced on a plain altar tomb. The third brother,
Nicholas, was Dean of Wells 1448-67 ; his monument, if he ever had one,
has disappeared altogether. The Carents parted with Toomer in 1676
(' Som. Arch, and Nat. Hist. Proc.,' XVI. i. 44, 45).
From the register of Bishop Beckynton, it appears that
on 20th November 1463 (3 Edward IV) the Bishop
granted forty days' indulgence to all true penitents, who
should go to the tomb of that worthy man, William Carent,
Esq., erected in the prebendal church of Henstridge, (qui
ad tumbam probi viri Willielmi Carent, armigeri, in ecclesia
prebendali de Hengstrigge, erectam et fabricatam ac-
cesserint,) and should devoutly repeat " Pater noster "
and " Ave "" for the welfare of the said William Carent,
and of the venerable Mr. Nicholas Carent, and John
Carent, senior, his brothers, and also of John Carent,
junior, his son, during their lives, and for the soul of
Margaret, late wife of the said William Carent, and the
souls of the other persons aforesaid, after their deaths.
The monument consists of an altar tomb, of Ham-hill
stone, surmounted by an arched canopy of the same ma-
terial. Underneath the canopy rest the effigies of the
Esquire and his lady, which, with the slab on which they
lie, are of grey sandstone. The tomb and canopy are still
in good preservation ; but the heads of the effigies are
much mutilated . The male figure is habited in a complete
suit of the armour commonly in use at that period, with
the exception of the hands, which are joined and elevated
in the attitude of prayer, and the head, which is also un-
covered, rests on a cushion. The hair is cut short round
the face. On the left side is a sword suspended from a
belt which passes round the body ; and on the right side
are a misericorde, or dagger, and gauntlets. The feet have
broad toes, and rest on what appears to be a lioness
couchant regardant. There is a little shield on each
shoulder, on which are depicted the arms of Toomer, viz.
gules, three bars xoavy argent. The female figure is a
good specimen of art and execution. The features, how-
ever, are much mutilated, the hands are raised in the
attitude of prayer, and the head rests on a cushion. The
mantle is fastened across the breast with a cord, and the
dress descends in straight folds, entirely coverhig the feet,
which rest on an animal, apparently muzzled, but it is
much mutilated. On each breast are painted the arms of
Stourton - not in the form of a shield but on the mantle -
viz. : sable, a bend or, betioeen six fountains. An inscrip-
tion, which was probably commemorative, ran round the
verge of the slab, but is now utterly illegible. Another
inscription occupied the moulding which runs up the side
and across the head of the canopy - only a few words are
now legible, but from these it appears to have consisted of
the lines so frequently met with on monuments of this
period : -
Sis testis Xste, quod uon tumulus jacet iste
Corpus ut ornetur sed spiritus ut memoretur.
Collinson thought the Toomers of Toomer, and the
Domers of Pen Domer, near Yeovil, in this county, were
one and the same family, but in this also he was certainly
mistaken. The Domers or Dummers were quite a dis-
tinct family, and bore a different coat of arms. They
sprang from the village of Dummer, near Basingstoke, in
Hampshire, where they were seated shortly after the con-
quest, and a branch of them continued there till the latter
end of the ]6th century. The elder branch removed into
Somersetshire, having become possessed of Penne by mar-
rying an heiress of that manor. She was living a widow
in the reign of King John. The Domers continued in
jDOSsession of Pendomer till the reign of Henry IV. The
Toomers took their name from the manor of Toomer, in the
parish of Henstridge, and Richard De Toomer purchased
lands in Henxtrigge, in 31 Edward I.
