...The manor, which had been leased to John Harford for 80 years in 1533, (fn. 102) was leased by the Crown in 1564 to Thomas Chamberlayne and in 1574 to Robert, Earl of Leicester; in the early 17th century it was disputed who the rightful lessee was. (fn. 103) By 1612 Prestbury manor was said to be held in chief by Reginald Nicholas (d. 1612), (fn. 104) who was apparently a servant of John Chamberlayne, (fn. 105) Thomas's son. Thomas Nicholas, son and heir of Reginald Nicholas, conveyed Prestbury to Elizabeth Craven, widow of Sir William Craven, and others in 1622. In 1630 it passed to her son William Craven, (fn. 106) though Thomas Nicholas was said to be seised of the manor at his death in 1639 (fn. 107) and his co-heirs were dealing with the manor-house in 1647. (fn. 108)

Fifth in descent from this John was Sir Thomas Chamberlain of Prestbury in Gloucestershire, who was Ambassador to Spain in three different reigns;-under Henry VIII., Edward VI., and Elizabeth. He was also three times married. His first wife, a Dutchwoman said to be of kin to the House of Nassau, was childless; but by the second he was ancestor of the Chamberlains of Maugersbury, and by the third (Anne Monck, a great-aunt of the Duke of Albemarle's), of the Chamberlains of Oddington. The Maugersbury branch ended in 1831.

May 17. Brussels, L.A. 63. The Queen Dowager to Edward VI.
I have very willingly consented, in accordance with the contents of your letters of the 28th of April last, that Mr. (Sir) Thomas Chamberlain, here resident at my Court as your ambassador, shall return towards you. I have been pleased to hear that he is being recalled to fill a higher post, as he is a deserving man, whose services have been agreeable to us and who has diligently fulfilled his mission, and has received my assistance, wherever I have been able to give it, to enable him the better to despatch his business and so foster our mutual friendship and good neighbourliness. I will do the same for Sir Philip Hoby, who has been chosen by you to discharge the duties of the same post. He has been and will always be agreeable to me, like all whom you may choose to send; as I have more amply declared to him, requesting him also to declare to you on my behalf that I desire nothing so much as to perform all good offices to preserve the mutual friendship; and that his Majesty (the Emperor) will always reciprocate to the best of his power.
