Will of Edward Baynard of Lackham - The National Archives PROB 11/57/579, probated 14 Feb 1575/76

I have deliberately missed the will of Robert Baynard probated 12 Oct 1537 because it is in Latin and will require rather more effect on my part at this time to transcribe it. It is quite short actually and does not mention members of the Blake family other than Robert I do not think so for that instance it is not of interest to me but I will eventually transcribe and translate it. Robert Baynard and his wife Anna Blake had a large family:

Edward Baynard was Robert's eldest son and heir and more on him in this post
Gertrud married Ambrose Adlame of Westbery Wiltshire
Robert (second son) was a scholar of Winchester aged 11 in 1532
Lawrence (third son)
Richard (fourth son) died without issue
Cicile married Robert White and later Thomas Berington of Hereford
Anna married John Willoughbye of Turner Piddle Dorset (and this John is mentioned in Roger Blake's will)
Jane married Leonard Knoell of Sandford Orcas Somerset
Thomas (fifth son) married Elizabeth daughter and coheir of George Barnes Alderman of London (this is the Baynard line found at Wanstrow Somerset and Cliffe Tincleton Dorset) and Thomas lived at Barton Gloucester

Yesterday's will was for Henry Baynard a brother to Philip and uncle to the present testator Edward Baynard. Edward is not the son with whom Henry had a problem that son was Robert and I know almost nothing about that Robert. Edward was the eldest son and he married three times. His first wife was Mariam daughter of Leonard Poole of Saperton Gloucester and there was no issue from this marriage. His second wife was Elinora Walsingham daughter of Edmond Walsingham of Chesilhurst (near Bromley Surrey) and again no issue. His third marriage was to Elizabeth Warnford daughter of John Warnford of Sevenhampton Wiltshire. Edward and Elizabeth had a large family and as mentioned in the will Robert was his eldest son and heir. He also mentions his five younger sons and this is perhaps the order of birth Nicholas, John, Giles, Philip and Edward and later Benjamin sixth son I think mentioned in a codicil perhaps just newly born with daughters Mary and later Anne is born after the will is written and mentioned in a codicil. The visitation lists both an Edward and an Edmondus. Mary married Edward Perce and Anne married Edward Reade of Corsham. Robert the eldest son married Ursula Stapleton daughter of Robert Stapleton of Wighall (North Riding of Yorkshire).

Edward (the testator) was Sheriff of Wiltshire in 1553 and he was buried 21 Dec 1575 aged 63 years according to the Visitation giving him a date of birth around 1512. Since he was the eldest son the date of marriage for Robert Baynard and Anna Blake would have been just prior to this time perhaps 1510 to 1511 giving a date of birth for Anne in the 1480s or early 1490s likely. As mentioned earlier Roger and Anne (siblings) are contemporaries with Nicholas Blake of Enham my ancestor who was likely born in the 1480s to 1490s period and died by 1547 at Andover. Blake histories published by Somersby would have had Roger as first cousin to Nicholas which would have been a fairly close relationship but noticeably absent in the wills of both of these men (Roger and Nicholas).

The latest yDNA results for the Blake family carrying I2a2b signature in their yDNA is most interesting. These ancient British lines tell a story that is somewhat profound. What motivated these separate lines to both choose the surname Blake? In the case of the Andover family the Blake family there goes back into the 1400s and the Blake family at Calne back into the 1200s. Is the newest tester a descendant of the Blake family at Calne (he is a perfect match with the tester from Ireland)? I recently posted on the DNA newsgroup and the reply has me thinking again about the origins of the Blake family that went to Ireland with Strongbow (Earl of Pembroke) and this Earl was from the Welsh Marches. Could it be that the name Blake became a very popular one and was chosen on the basis of the popularity thus acquired? Did the Blake family receive the land that they had because of their association with Strongbow? All such tantalizing thoughts are on the drawing board. There is also the I1 group of Blake which some believe is the Blake family at Calne.

Dating this family is helpful and it is known that Pinhills came into the possession of the Blake family sometime before 1504 when it was held by John Blake as mentioned in his will although it passed to his brother Robert son of Robert Blake and Avis Wallop and hence the father of Roger Blake and Anne Blake (married to Robert Baynard). Pinhills was held in 1407 by John Formage passing down to John Cricklade (Lord of Studley Manor) who held it in 1461 and at some point between 1461 and 1504 it came into the hands of the Blake family. It is said that a Robert de Blakeland paid subsidy in 1286 whilst living at Blakelands and this is said to be on the Wiltshire Roll of Subsidies (published histories of the Blake family of the United States). I have not yet found that particular document but where was the Blake family of Calne from 1286 to 1504 when they are known to be at Pinhills? Quemerford is often noted as their home and searching British History online under Calne Economic History gives a few interesting details with Blackland and Quemerford mentioned below.

British History online - Calne
http://www.british-history.ac.uk/source.aspx?pubid=63

This set of 33 documents from the 11th to the 19th century is a fascinating read. Blackland has ten pages but the only mention of Blake in these ten pages is a manor at Compton Bassett called Blake's. Is Blacklands the Blakelands referred to by earlier family histories of the Blake family produced by descendants in the United States? It is very close to Calne. Blake's at Compton Bassett was held by John Blake (died 1504 and brother to Robert Blake father of Roger Blake). This property passed into the Dauntsey family (grandson of John Blake by his daughter). It was not called Blake's until later at least by 1557 according to the British History Online writeup.

"In 1500 John Blake (d. 1504) held an estate later called BLAKE'S. His heirs were his daughter Joan Wroughton and his grandson Richard Dauntsey. (fn. 84) Richard held Blake's at his death in 1557 and was succeeded by his son William, (fn. 85) who sold it in 1588 to Francis Shute. (fn. 86) Francis conveyed it in 1589 to William Shute (fn. 87) (fl. 1599), (fn. 88) and in 1619 it was held by William's son John (fn. 89) (fl. 1629). (fn. 90) In 1648 the Revd. John Shute, either William's son or a namesake, with Sir John Thoroughgood and Thoroughgood's wife Frances sold Blake's to Robert Maundrell. (fn. 91) Robert and his namesakes probably held the estate until 1743; a Robert, son of Robert Maundrell, died in 1673, another Robert died in 1705, and a third in 1743. (fn. 92) The estate was held by Thomas Maundrell in 1747 (fn. 93) and by another or others of the same name between 1780 and c. 1815, when it passed to Robert Maundrell. It was acquired by Robert Essington c. 1816, presumably by purchase, and after his death c. 1825 was divided. By 1831 most of the estate had been acquired by George Walker Heneage, the lord of Compton Bassett manor, and it descended with the manor until 1929-30. (fn. 94) As Manor farm, 200 a. in 1930, (fn. 95) it was acquired before 1936 by W. S. FieldingJohnson (fn. 96) (d. 1953), whose relict Noel Fielding-Johnson (fn. 97) in 1963 sold Manor and Streete farms, a total of 363 a., to Mr. J. S. Reis, the owner in 1995. (fn. 98)"

"A fulling mill in Quemerford belonged to Robert Blake (d. 1515) (fn. 76) and was on the estate at Quemerford conveyed by Robert's grandson Thomas Blake to Henry Chivers in 1560. A new mill at Quemerford was built in 1594, or perhaps shortly before then, by Roger Chivers, who held the estate conveyed in 1560. (fn. 77) In 1646 Roger Chivers's son Henry held two fulling mills on the Marden and south of the London road at Quemerford: one adjoined his mansion house, was on the site of the mill later called Lower or Quemerford mill, and was probably that standing in 1515; the other was called New mill, stood above the mansion house, was later called Upper or Provender mill, and was probably that built in the early 1590s. (fn. 78) Both mills descended with the Chiverses' land at Quemerford to Henry Vince (fl. after 1748). (fn. 79) In 1572 John Mitchell, the owner of Blunt's estate in Calstone, proposed to use the site of an old mill at Quemerford to build a fulling mill with two tenters. (fn. 80) Although there were later three fulling mills at Quemerford there is no evidence that Mitchell's proposal was put into practice. The third fulling mill, called Phelps or Hole mill, stood on the Marden below the other two and north of the London Road. (fn. 81)"

Searching for Quemerford in the National Archives does reveal a number of documents but nothing with the Blake name. But it is interesting that Robert Blake had a fulling mill. Very little is known about Robert Blake and his wife Avis Wallop but he did have a coat of arms and the stained glass window produced as a likeness of he and his wife was drawn and this drawing is held by the British Library. The stained glass window was destroyed during a wind storm in the 17th century. The Blake Pedigree Chart also contains two drawings of two different couples - the first drawing is of Robert Blake and Alice Folyot (rather think this is meant to be Wallop) because the caption above talks about this being in the "Chancell of Calne." This chart was produced in 1690 with later additions but was produced after the stained glass window was destroyed. Since they are both under copyright I can not reproduce them here but they can be acquired from the Swindon and Wiltshire Record Office for a very reasonable price as part of the entire Pedigree Chart.

I have placed the two pictures said to be Robert Blake and Avice Wallop side by side and they are remarkably different but still a lot the same. The faces are different somewhat. Avis/Alice's face is covered rather more by draping in the drawing made of the original window. The Blake crest is rather well reproduced and very similar in both images. The image on the Blake Pedigree Chart  is coloured and the drawing is not. The crest of the Wallop family is displayed in the coloured version showing it to be red and white and is very similar to the gown that is worn by Avice/Alice. The picture that was drawn shows a much younger Robert Blake and Avice Wallop.

The Blake Pedigree chart held at the Swindon and Wiltshire Record Office is somewhat helpful with regard to the early history of the Blake family in Wiltshire in that the oldest record is named as Richard Blague alias Blaake of Wiltshire Esquire living during the reign of Edward I and Edward II gave certain lands in Essex to the Knights Templars during the reign of Edward I. Edward I reigned from 1272 to 1307 and Richard overlapped the time of Edward I and Edward II. Edward II reigned from 1307 to 1327. Hence this Richard was alive in 1286 when the Subsidy was paid which is claimed by other Blake researchers for Robert de Blakeland.

When next we are at the National Archives there is one document that I want to acquire C 241/243/39 18 Aug 1460 and it concerns John Blake of Nether Wallop and Robert Blake of Calne (these two men are brothers). It may prove rather interesting as it is prior to 1504 when Robert becomes seized of Pinhills on the death of his brother John. There is a second document involving Robert Blake in 1460 between Robert Blake of Calne and a John Bridewell C 241/244/5. They are on my wish list and may tell me more about Robert Blake in 1460. A search of The National Archives on the surname Blake from 1000 to 1400 yields 68 documents most of which are not in Wiltshire. I have looked at this before but the mention of Blake with Strongbow has rekindled my interest in the earlier records.

Interestingly I do find a grant of Land in Eastwood by Roger le Blake of Madebrook to the Knights Templars 20 Nov 1302. The summary "Roger le Blake of Madebrook to grant land in Eastwood to the master and brethren of the Knights Templars in England, retaining a cottage and land in Thundersley and Eastwood. Essex" C 143/41/23 with date 31 Edward I. Obviously this one is a must as it relates to the Pedigree Chart. It is possible to find Eastwood and Thundersley on Google maps in Essex  and Madebrook is now the name of a pub located in Madeley which is near Telford in Shropshire.

However, I digress from the will of Edward Baynard. Edward's children have come late to him as it is not until he marries a third time that his family begins. Edward is buried in 1575 at the age of 63 according to the Visitation but his eldest son is not yet 21 at the time of the writing of the will in 1572. The will of Sir Robert Baynard (his son) will not be published for a few days as he died 14 Apr 1636 and his will was probated 28 Mar 1639 with the Inquisition Postmortem being held 6 Oct 1636. The will is a long one so will perhaps provide interesting details but not likely on the Blake family as members of that family would now be his second cousins and perhaps quite distant given the large number of siblings that Robert had and aunts/uncles. Sir Robert is likely in his 70s when he dies in 1636 as he was not yet 21 in 1572 and it is known that Edward's second wife Elinora was buried 20 Aug 1559 so he is born after that date and likely only in his mid teens at the most when his father died.
