| Notes |
- Will of Sir Richard Carewe of Beddington, Surrey February 1522 PROB 11/21
Knight. Sheriff of Surrey.
Monuments at Beddington church, Surrey.
Richard, who succeeded to the family estates in 1492, was created a baronet in 1497. He was sheriff of Surrey in 1501. His son, Sir Nicholas, also held this office and sat as knight of the shire for Surrey in parliament. He rose to favour at the court of Henry VIII, who in 1531 visited Beddington, and hunted in his grounds. He had a place of honour at the christening of Edward VI in 1537, but in 1539 was attainted for his complicity in the Marquis of Exeter's treason.
During the lives of Sir Richard and Sir Nicholas, the family lands has been greatly increased. Walton on the Hill and Banstead manors, the property of Catherine of Aragon, were leased, and afterwards granted in reversion, to Sir Richard and Sir Nicholas in 1513 and 1532 respectively. Bletchingley passed into the king's hands on the attainder of the Duke of Buckingham in1521, and was immediately granted to Sir Nicholas. Epsom, Horley, Sutton and Coulsdon, part of the possessions of Chertsey Abbey, were the subject of a further grant after the dissolution. The manors of Plumpton, Plumpton Boscage and Barcombe in Sussex were granted in reversion to Nicholas, before he succeeded his father, on the attainder of Francis Lord Lovell, the heir tail to the estates.
Only these last were allowed to Elizabeth Carew after the attainder of her husband, though she pleaded to be allowed Bletchingley also. The attainder was reversed in 1549, but the return of the lands to Sir Nicholas' son, Sir Francis, followed more slowly, piecemeal. Bletchingley, Horley and Wartling were never returned. In 1596 Sir Francis added to his possessions the manor of Wallington, the capital messuage of which had been in the possession of the Carew family since at least 1539.
Sir Francis died, unmarried, on 16 May 1611, leaving the bulk of his estates to his nephew, Sir Nicholas Throckmorton, who took the name of Carew. The manor of Walton on the Hill was left to another nephew, Sir Francis Darcy, who alienated it to Sir Nicholas four years later. Coulsdon and Epsom passed to Sir Edward Darcy, an elder brother of Sir Francis, to whom the reversions had been granted by Elizabeth I in 1589. Sutton had also been granted in reversion to Sir Edward, but in 1609 was conveyed by Sir Francis Carew and Sir Edward Darcy to Sir Robert, Edward's son, in trust for Sir Francis Darcy for life, with reversion to Sir Robert.
