      • A CALENDAR OF FEET OF FINES FOR WILTSHIRE.
        Henry V111 148. Anno 27. John Rous, Robert Tetherley, and Roger Yorke, sergeant-at-law, and Margaret his wife ; messuages and lands in New Sarum.
        The Milbournes' lands were then disputed by Henry's widow Margaret, formerly wife of Anthony Ernie and then wife of Roger Yorke, William Fauconer, grandson of Sir Thomas's sister Agnes, and Joan Brooke and Margaret Halswell, descendants of John Chitterne's sister Christine. (fn. 140) A Chancery decree of 1538 settled them on Margaret Yorke for life with remainder to Fauconer. (fn. 141) In 1539, however, those two settled Upton Knoyle on Richard Milbourne's widow Edith, wife of Edward Twinyhoe, for her life. (fn. 142) In 1544 Fauconer conveyed his interest to Robert Titherley, (fn. 143) husband of Margaret Yorke's daughter Elizabeth Ernie, (fn. 144) who apparently occupied the manor, (fn. 145) and in 1556 the Twinyhoes conveyed their interest to Robert. (fn. 146) In 1576 Robert's son William sold to John Mervyn of Pertwood. (fn. 147)
