end of profile

The surname of STAPLETON was a locational name 'of Stapleton' a village in the parish of Darrington, near Pontefract, County Yorkshire. Early records of the name mention William de Stapleton, 1273 County Oxford. Robertus de Stapulton was listed in the Yorkshire Poll Tax of 1379. Originally the coat of arms identified the wearer, either in battle or in tournaments. Completely covered in body and facial armour the knight could be spotted and known by the insignia painted on his shield, and embroidered on his surcoat, the draped garment which enveloped him. Between the 11th and 15th centuries it became customary for surnames to be assumed in Europe, but were not commonplace in England or Scotland before the Norman Conquest of 1066. They are to be found in the Domesday Book of 1086. Those of gentler blood assumed surnames at this time, but it was not until the reign of Edward II (1307-1327) that second names became general practice for all people. The names introduced into Britain by the Normans during and in the wake of the Invasion of 1066, are nearly all territorial in origin. The followers of William the Conqueror were a pretty mixed lot, and while some of them brought the names of their castles and villages in Normandy with them, many were adventurers of different nationalities attached to William's standard by the hope of plunder, and possessing no family or territorial names of their own. Those of them who acquired lands in England were called by their manors, while others took the name of the offices they held or the military titles given to them, and sometimes, a younger son of a Norman landowner, on receiving a grant of land in his new home dropped his paternal name and adopted that of his newly acquired property. The name was taken to Ireland by settlers where they lived in counties Kilkenny and Tipperary. In Gaelic Mac an Ghaill (the son of the foreigner), which has in turn been re-Anglicized as Gall. The associated arms are recorded in Sir Bernard Burkes General Armory. Ulster King of Arms in 1884. The lion depicted in the arms is the noblest of all wild beasts which is made to be the emblem of strength and valour, and is on that account the most frequently borne in Coat-Armour.

Buried:
Drax Priory was an Augustinian priory at Drax in North Yorkshire, England, founded between 1130 and 1139[1] by William Paynel. The Priory has sometimes been called an abbey, though this is judged to be incorrect. Permission was given to crenellate the priory in 1362.[2]

The Priory was run down in 1535 with the Dissolution of the Monasteries and the land was leased to Sir Marmaduke Constable to be used as a farm.[2] In 1997, a geophysical survey and aerial imaging was undertaken which revealed wall lines of buried buildings and former ponds.[3]

The monks at Drax owned lands in Ryecroft and St Ives (both near Bingley) in what is now West Yorkshire. These lands were granted to the monks by Adam De Birkin between 1165 and 1185.

Note Information is also included in the introduction (summary) for the transcription of daughter Elizabeth's will (see this pdf), which states that her father was "attorney-general to King Henry VII, and himself a descendant of King John by a mistress. (It appears the error is from a misreading of Richardson, which shows that this Henry's grandfather, also Henry Sothill, Esq., was "King's Attorney General".)

Notes:

Babthorpe family (per. c.1501-1635), gentry, in Yorkshire, could boast of an ancient pedigree which included a number of medieval knights who had been soldiers and courtiers. The family's principal seat was at Osgodby in the extensive East Riding parish of Hemingbrough, where they had been lords of the manor since about 1440. In addition they had residences at Babthorpe in the same parish and, from 1543, at Flotmanby in the parish of Folkton, near Filey. For many years they were nvolved in a dispute with the Plumpton family over the descent of their ancestral estates. The issue was finally resolved in 1565 when an arbitration award left them in possession of the manors of Osgodby, Babthorpe, and Brackenholme and of other property in the East Riding.

The most notable of the Tudor Babthorpes was Sir William Babthorpe (c.1490-1555), son of William Babthorpe and Christina Sothill; succeeding his father aged eleven in 1501, he then became a ward of the crown. He was a lawyer who served as a legal member of the council in the north from 1525 until his death. He was a thrusting and ambitious man, and his steady accumulation of offices in the East Riding made him a powerful figure there. These covered a wide range of functions: commissioner for musters, justice of the peace, and custos rotulorum; steward of the lordship of Beverley; constable of Wressle Castle and steward and master forester of Wressle (offices in the gift of the earls of Northumberland who employed him as a legal adviser); and steward of Howden and Howdenshire. In April 1536 he was named as one of the commissioners for surveying the lands and goods of the dissolved religious foundations in the East Riding, but in October he joined the leaders of the Pilgrimage of Grace, a decision which owed much to the influence of his kinsman Robert Aske, and it was no doubt with his connivance that Wressle Castle became the rebels' headquarters. When it became clear that the uprising had failed, however, Babthorpe rapidly changed sides. In January 1537 he sought to prevent another uprising in the East Riding, and in May he was appointed as one of the special commissioners who were responsible for processing the indictments against his former associates. His initial stance did him no harm: he continued as a member of the council in the north and was able to purchase a considerable amount of monastic property, including the manor of Flotmanby, and to acquire leases of the rectories of Drax and Adlingfleet.

That Babthorpe was a politically important figure is demonstrated by his election to the parliaments of 1547 and April 1554 as one of the Yorkshire knights of the shire. At the coronation of Edward VI in 1547 he was made a knight of the Bath.

Babthorpe married Agnes, a daughter of Brian Palmes of Naburn, and they had two sons and two daughters. He died on 27 February 1555. His heir, Sir William Babthorpe (c.1529–1581), apparently received some part of his education at the Middle Temple in London and was knighted in 1560 by the duke of Norfolk at Berwick while serving in his expeditionary force.

Sir William was married twice, first to Barbara, daughter of Sir Robert Constable of Everingham, and then, in 1564, to Frances, daughter of Sir Thomas Dawney of Sessay, and from these two marriages he had one son and four daughters.

In a report on the Yorkshire justices of the peace which was compiled in 1564 Sir William was described as a man who was no favourer of religion as established by the Elizabethan settlement. In April 1565 Archbishop Young of York was in correspondence with Sir William Cecil about Babthorpe's unseemly talk, as he termed it, which was regarded as highly inflammatory. Cecil had already rebuked Babthorpe and his associates, and the archbishop

The Babthorpes took their surname from the East Riding manor of Babthorpe in the parish of Hemingbrough, which they acquired around the time of Richard I. Ralph de Hunsley, whose family could be traced back to the reign of King Stephen, assumed the surname of his new manor, which was held of the bishop of Durham. The early Babthorpes were verderers of the forest between Ouse and Derwent, having charge of the king's deer, and were never great landholders - Babthorpe being a small manor of only one carucate, and nearby Osgodby in the same parish, which they finally were awarded in 1460 after a 20-year dispute with rival claimants the Hagthorpes, not any larger. It was service, in particular legal service, which elevated the family in importance and influence.

In the early 15th-century, Sir Robert Babthorpe (d. 1436) fought at Agincourt, was the first of the family to be knighted, and served as comptroller of the Household to Henry V,and was one of the executors of that monarch's will. His son Ralph Babthorpe was an esquire of the body to Henry VI, and was killed in 1455 fighting for the Lancastrian cause at the first battle of St. Albans.

His son Sir Robert Babthorpe (d. 1466) had four sons, Ralph, Robert, William and Thomas. The eldest son Ralph Babthorpe (d. 1490) left an only daughter and heiress Isabel, who was married to Lord Hastings, but died without issue. The second son Robert Babthorpe also left an only daughter, another Isabel (d. 1552), who was arranged in marriage in 1496 to William, son and heir of Sir Robert Plumpton.

It was the third son William Babthorpe (d. 1501) who had arranged his niece's marriage, securing to himself and his heirs the entail of Babthorpe and other family lands in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, but the Plumptons dishonored the agreement and laid claim to those exempted estates, which resulted in a 60-year ongoing feud between the two families.

Though confined to a single manor, Osgodby, due to the Plumpton feud, the Babthorpes continued to pursue legal careers in the 16th-century, and became part of the Yorkshire attorney-gentry class, which distinguished itself through administrative service and local influence rather than great estates. Included were such families as the Sothills, the Fairfaxes, the Middletons, and the Palmeses, with whom the Babthorpes intermarried.

The family reached a peak with attorney Sir William Babthorpe (1493-1555) who, thanks to the influence of his Palmes in-laws, was appointed to the council of the Duke of Richmond in June 1525, and was made a justice of the peace for the East Riding. In 1536, he was appointed to the council of the North, serving alongside Sir Marmaduke Constable of Everingham (d. 1545), and together they became involved in the first stages of the Pilgrimage of Grace the following year, though they were able to escape the executions of its leaders. It was probably by 1541 that Babthorpe's son and heir William was arranged in marriage to Constable's granddaughter Barbara, for Sir Marmaduke made Babthorpe one of the supervisors of his will in that year. Through her mother, Barbara Constable was descended from Edward III, and the Babthorpes and Constables of Everingham would remain closely associated through the remainder of the century.

Sir William Babthorpe obtained the East Riding manor of Flotmanby in 1543, was elected M.P. in 1547 and again in 1554, while Barbara's father, Sir Robert Constable of Everingham, was elected M.P. in 1553 and 1555.

The next Sir William Babthorpe (1528-1581) and Barbara Constable had one son (Ralph) and two daughters (Katherine, married to George Vavasour, and Margaret, married to Henry Cholmley) before her untimely death, likely by 1558 (as her father made provision for only three married daughters in his will that year).

William took a second wife Frances Dawnay (not descended from Edward I) and had a third daughter (Christian, married to John Girlington).

It was this Sir William who was awarded the manors of Babthorpe and adjoining Brackenholme when the long-standing dispute with the Plumptons was finally settled in1565.

Sir William was also an attorney, appointed to the East Riding bench in 1562, and knighted by 1575. But he and his second wife were amongst the earliest Yorkshire gentry to fall back to the original Catholic faith, and the family would later pay dearly for their devotion to it.

Biography

William Babthorpe’s father was a younger brother of Sir Ralph Babthorpe of Babthorpe in the East Riding. Sir Ralph, who died in 1490, left no male heir and the younger William was later among the claimants to Babthorpe, which eventually passed to his son. Babthorpe was 11 years old when his father died and three years later his wardship was purchased for ¹40 by his stepfather William Bedell; but it was probably his future father-in-law, Brian Palmes, a serjeant-at-law, who had most influence on his career, assisted perhaps by his brother-in-law, Palmes’s son George, a canon of York and confessor to Wolsey. Such patronage might explain Babthorpe’s early appointment to the Duke of Richmond’s council: he was to remain a member of it until the duke’s death in 1536, and afterwards became a member of the council in the north. To these crown appointments Babthorpe added service to magnates in the north. In 1533 he became one of the 5th Earl of Northumberland’s learned councillors, and between that year and 1535 constable of Wressle castle, steward of Wressle and Neasham and master forester of Wressle, with the reversion of these offices to his son; by February 1537 he was also a legal adviser to Lord Darcy. If it was through Palmes that he had become a member of York’s Corpus Christi guild in 1512, his admission may provide an approximate date for his marriage.4

His connexions with the northern nobility would doubtless have involved Babthorpe in the Pilgrimage of Grace, but it was his kinship with its leader Robert Aske which seems to have first drawn him in. His name appeared on Aske’s first proclamation of 10 Oct. 1536 and it must have been with his permission that Wressle castle became the rebel headquarters. He was with Darcy at Pontefract and thereafter at York and Doncaster, but his early sympathy with the movement evaporated and by January 1537 he was doing his part, in Darcy’s phrase, to stay the commons. On 19 Jan. he wrote to Darcy that he had heard of the scattering of Sir Francis Bigod and his company and that if Darcy had anything for London his son would attend him, Babthorpe himself not intending to go to London that term. On 1 Feb. he wrote to Aske to say that he and Sir Marmaduke Constable I , another of his kinsmen, had spoken with the 3rd Duke of Norfolk and that Aske should not be discouraged if the duke gave him an unfriendly reception: Constable had said that Aske could count on the duke’s favour and the esteem of the King and Council. Whether Babthorpe was being naive or subtle is not clear, but Aske was to pay the penalty and Babthorpe go free. Later in the year Norfolk described Babthorpe to the King as just, diligent and underpaid, and in September he used Babthorpe and another to declare his intentions to Cromwell.5

Bills were committed to Babthorpe in both the Parliaments in which he sat: on 14 Dec. 1548 the second reading of a bill for the keeping of county days, on 7 Nov. 1549 one for sales and grants made by patentees out of patents, on 29 Jan. 1550 one for leases made out of lands in the right of the wife, and on 24 Apr. 1554 the first reading of a bill to repair the way between Bristol and Gloucester. He was also one of the Members mentioned by Thomas Jolye in a letter of 7 Jan. 1549 who spoke against Richard Musgrave’s bill to deprive the 2nd Earl of Cumberland of his hereditary shrievalty of Westmorland; another who spoke against the bill was Babthorpe’s fellow-Member for Yorkshire and kinsman, Sir Nicholas Fairfax. Later in November of the same year he was named to the four-man delegation sent to excuse ‘Mr. Palmer, burgess’ from appearing in the common pleas.6

Babthorpe was among the first to obtain monastic property in Yorkshire, including Drax rectory, a lease in Flotmanby and, in August 1543, the manor of Flotmanby itself.

In the early 17th century, however, the Babthorpes, as Catholics, were to lose all their landed property and another Sir William, the last of his family to reside at Osgodby, was reduced to taking service as a common soldier in the Spanish army. Sir William Babthorpe died on 27 Feb. 1555 and his eldest surviving son William, aged 26 at his father’s death, had licence to enter on his lands on 16 June.7

Biography

Like his father and grandfather, Robert Constable saw much service against the Scots. He was knighted by the Earl of Hertford during the campaign of 1544 but was taken prisoner in the following spring: he wrote to the 5th Earl of Shrewsbury from Edinburgh on 19 Mar. asking to be ransomed or exchanged.

In September 1548 his brother-in-law Sir Richard Manners, whom Hertford, now Duke of Somerset and Protector, had appointed deputy-warden of the east and middle marches, asked Shrewsbury to allow Constable to help him in the east march, and it may have been while doing so that Constable captured Archibald Douglas, laird of Glenbervie, whom he had with him at Everingham in the following January.4

Constable also followed his forbears in sitting as a knight for Yorkshire. He is known to have done so in the two Parliaments of 1553 and may have sat for a third time in 1555, when the loss of the christian name from the return leaves it in doubt whether he or (Sir) John Constable of Burton Constable was elected: the balance of probability lies with Sir Robert, as (Sir) John sat on other occasions only for his neighbouring borough of Hedon. Apart from his military record and several years’ service on the bench, Constable could doubtless count on the support of the Earls of Shrewsbury and Rutland: Shrewsbury both advocated and prepared for the Parliament of March 1553, and his involvement in the succession conspiracy was reluctant enough for him to make his peace with Mary and continue to wield his patronage during her reign. That Constable made the transition without difficulty is shown by his retention on the commission of the peace and his appointment as sheriff, and it is no surprise to find that as a Member of the first Marian Parliament he did not stand ‘for the true religion’, that is, for Protestantism, or in the fourth—if he was in that one—follow the lead of Sir Anthony Kingston in voting against one of the government’s bills. Whether it was he or (Sir) John Constable to whom a less contentious bill, to establish a standard measure throughout the realm, was committed after its second reading on 17 Oct. 1553 the omission in the Journal of a christian name leaves uncertain. As sheriff in 1557-8 Constable, himself debarred from election, was responsible for returning both (Sir) John Constable for Hedon and Sir Richard Cholmley, his cousin, as knight of the shire.5

Constable did not survive the reign of Mary, dying on 29 Oct. 1558. By his will, which he had made on the previous 1 Sept., he provided for his three surviving younger sons and three married daughters (of whom Elizabeth was the wife of Edward Ellerker) and he appointed as executors his wife and his eldest son Marmaduke, who had been knighted in 1547.6

About Sir Robert Stapleton, MP
Sir Robert was described as "a gentleman for person, address, and skill in languages, [who] had no superior in England nor equal, except Sir Philip Sydney," and Queen Elizabeth is said to have recommended him to Olive Talbot as a suitable bridegroom. His court career was ruined by a "spectacular quarrel with Edwin Sandys, archbishop of York," (and friend of William Brewster, a staff member of Elizabeth's court). Olive was residing as a widow in Lacock Abbey in 1634.

Biography At about ten years of age Stapleton became the ward of Susan Tonge, first lady of the bedchamber to Queen Mary, known as Susan Clarencieux or Mrs. Clarentius from her husband having been Clarenceux king of arms. He was sent to Lincoln’s Inn, but by 1569 was commanding the garrison at York against the northern rebels. Next he joined in the invasion of Scotland, under the 3rd Earl of Sussex, who knighted him at Carlisle. Sir Thomas Gargrave classified him in his 1572 list of protestant gentry as of the ‘meaner sort’ in Yorkshire, but he was of sufficient standing to secure a county seat at the by-election of February 1576, following the death of Thomas Waterton. He was put on the subsidy committee, 25 Jan. 1581 and a committee for a bill about Carlisle, 27 Feb. 1581.5

For the next few years Stapleton found favour at court, where Camden noted him as ‘a gentleman for person, address, and skill in languages, said to have had no superior in England nor equal, except Sir Philip Sydney’. In January 1579 Elizabeth recommended him to Olive Talbot as a suitable bridegroom. He was wealthy enough to raise ‘seven score men in livery’, and from about 1577 (before his first wife died) he was buying further lands in Yorkshire. From a second marriage, with a rich heiress, he hoped to gain over ¹1,200 a year. In the event, the wedding was delayed owing to the crisis in Stapleton’s fortunes following a spectacular quarrel with Edwin Sandys, archbishop of York.6

Relations between the two men were strained at least as early as 1578, when Stapleton, who was already trying to acquire some of the archbishop’s lands, was appointed a commissioner to investigate complaints by Sandys against the dean of Durham. An accidental meeting at the Bull, Doncaster, in May 1581 brought matters to a head. Stapleton and Sir Francis Mallory, on their way to London, put up for the night at the inn, owned by one Sysson, whose wife, perhaps significantly, was a former servant of Sandys. The archbishop was staying there, and Sandys and Stapleton renewed their quarrel. During the night the innkeeper forced his way into the archbishop’s room and found him ‘in naked bed’ with Mrs. Sysson. Sandys, whose story was that the event had been contrived by Stapleton to discredit him, now bribed Stapleton and the innkeeper to keep silence. After some months, Sandys found Sysson’s increasing demands excessive, and told Burghley the story, alleging that Stapleton (‘the Queen’s messenger’) thought that he was safe in the royal favour and could ‘say what he will’. In the ensuing Star Chamber case the archbishop was vindicated at the expense of Stapleton and his associates. Stapleton was sentenced to three years’ imprisonment and fined ¹300; Sysson fined ¹500 and to be pilloried with his ears nailed, and his servant ‘Alexander the Scot’ to be fined ¹500 and to have his ears cut off. Stapleton was to read a prepared apology ‘upon his knees’ at York assizes, which he did in a low voice ‘as fast as he could’. This piece of defiance earned him a period of confinement in the Tower, whence in December 1583 he expressed his repentance and asked to be allowed to exercise in the fresh air. He was transferred to the Fleet and released some time in 1584, Burghley having unsuccessfully attempted to persuade Sandys to intercede for his former opponent.7

In the meantime his second marriage had taken place, the eldest child being baptized in April 1585. His court career in ruins, Stapleton paid a short visit to the Earl of Leicester in the Netherlands. In April 1586 he thought of returning there, perhaps to serve in the English army, only to be told by Leicester that the Queen had been displeased by his first visit. Stapleton now sold some of his Yorkshire estates, either to pay his fine, or to move from the scene of his humiliation. Between 1585 and 1603 he moved between Wiltshire, where his wife had property, to Wales, the Isle of Man, and London. James I remitted part of his debt to the Crown, and Stapleton found a borough seat in the first Parliament of the new reign, but he never retrieved his fortunes at court, and died intestate in the autumn of 1606, being buried at Wighill 3 Oct.8

Notes:

In a report on the Yorkshire justices of the peace which was compiled in 1564 Sir William was described as a man who was no favourer of religion as established by the Elizabethan settlement. In April 1565 Archbishop Young of York was in correspondence with Sir William Cecil about Babthorpe's unseemly talk, as he termed it, which was regarded as highly inflammatory.

Cecil had already rebuked Babthorpe and his associates, and the archbishop assured him that they were now in great awe and obedience. When the northern rising broke out in 1569 Babthorpe demonstrated his loyalty by joining the royal army under the earl of Sussex.

As a suspected recusant Sir William came under pressure from the northern high commission. In 1580 he produced a certificate of conformity for himself and his family but admitted that his wife refused to go to church. A few months later he was entertaining Edmund Campion.

In his will Babthorpe gave direction that he should be buried in the family chapel at Hemingbrough parish church. Although he was basically dependent on his estate revenue he had managed to buy some additional property, including the manor of Bowthorpe. He died in 1581.

Buried:
HEMINGBROUGH, a parish in the Southern point of the wapentake of Ouse and Derwent; Pop. 500.

Scope and Content

The volume contains Booth Genealogies, A.D. 1275-1954 - with Memoranda and Notes, being a collection of genealogical tables showing the descents of various branches of the Booth family in Britain and the United States from the medieval period to the 20th century. According to an inscription on the opening page, it was compiled by "Redivalls", William Henry Booth, of Hatfield, Salisbury, Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland [now Harare, Zimbabwe]. The family trees are preceded by an index and a foreword in which the author states that "This Book has been specially written for the Rt. Hon. The Earl of Stamford, the present owner of the ancient estates, etc. of the family of Booth of Dunham Massey."

Administrative / Biographical History

The Booth family held Dunham Massey for over three hundred years, from the early fifteenth century until the mid eighteenth century, when they were succeeded by the Greys, Earls of Stamford. The Booth family acquired the manor of Barton on Irwell in Lancashire towards the end of the thirteenth century. The family produced a number of churchmen in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, including two bishops, of Exeter and Hereford, and numerous archdeacons and rectors, besides the two archbishops of York.

The barony and manor of Dunham Massey came into the possession of the Booth family through Sir Robert Booth (d 1460). During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries the Booths seem to have married predominantly into gentry families from Cheshire and south Lancashire, such as Venables of Bollin, Dutton of Dutton, Ashton of Ashton under Lyne, Butler of Bewsey near Warrington, Trafford of Trafford, Warburton of Arley, and Carrington of Carrington. Before the end of the sixteenth century the Booths had acquired the whole manor of Ashton.

Sir William Booth (1540-1579) served as sheriff of Cheshire 1570-1, and was returned as a member for Cheshire in 1571. His son, Sir George Booth (1566-1652), served as sheriff of Cheshire twice, in 1596-7 and 1621-2, and as sheriff of Lancashire in 1622-3. George Booth (1622-1684) had a remarkable political career, rising in 1659 in support of the restoration. George Booth (1675-1758), 2nd Earl of Warrington, married Mary Oldbury, the daughter of a wealthy London merchant. Their only daughter, Mary (1704-1772), married Harry Grey, 4th Earl of Stamford. The estates were entailed after Mary's death in 1772 to her son, George Harry Grey, 5th Earl of Stamford.

William married Margaret Savage on 24 Jan 1561 in Cheshire, England. Margaret was born in 0___ 1549; died on 7 Apr 1597; was buried in Brereton, Cheshire, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Sir William was succeeded by his son, Sir Ralph Babthorpe (1561–1618), who had been admitted as a fellow commoner at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, in 1576. During his time there the younger Babthorpe consorted with other Roman Catholic undergraduates and was alleged to have worn a crucifix in bed.

In 1579 he married Grace Birnand [Grace Babthorpe (c.1563–1635)], the daughter and sole heir of William Birnand of Knaresborough; they had four sons and three daughters.

It was a marriage with major consequences in religious and ultimately in financial terms. Grace Babthorpe was a zealous Roman Catholic who later earned the praise of a Jesuit chaplain as ‘the pillar of religion’ in the East Riding. She had her children baptized at home by a Roman Catholic priest, took great pains over their religious upbringing, and kept them away from protestant services. In 1599 the Babthorpes were employing a Roman Catholic schoolmaster, William Boyes, who found himself in trouble for teaching without a licence.

About Sir Philip Stapleton, MP
Sir Philip Stapleton (1603–1647), of Warter-on-the Wolds in Yorkshire, was an English Member of Parliament, a supporter of the Parliamentary cause during the English Civil War. His surname is also sometimes spelt Stapylton or Stapilton.

biographical notes
Stapleton's cavalry played a significant role at the battle of Edgehill in October 1642, where he fought in the Parliamentarian reserve under Sir William Balfour. Stapleton was present at Chalgrove Field, where John Hampden was mortally wounded, and he marched with Essex to the relief of Gloucester. He commanded the right wing of horse at the first battle of Newbury in September 1643 and is reported to have fired point-blank in Prince Rupert's face. Fortunately for Rupert, Stapleton's pistol misfired.

In February 1644, Stapleton was appointed to the Committee for Both Kingdoms. He was a friend and political ally of the Earl of Essex and became associated with the "peace party" in Parliament, which sought a negotiated settlement with the King. Stapleton was involved in the plot between Presbyterians and the Scottish commissioners to have Oliver Cromwell impeached in December 1644 but he was obliged to resign his military commissions under the Self-Denying Ordinance of April 1645.

As a close associate of Denzil Holles, Stapleton became involved in the Presbyterian political opposition to the Independents and the New Model Army during 1647. He was denounced by the Army for assaulting Major Tulidah, who tried to present an Army petition to Parliament. In June 1647, Stapleton was one of the Eleven Members impeached by the Army for attempting to provoke another civil war. The Eleven Members withdrew from Parliament rather than face the charges against them. Although passes were issued to allow them to go overseas, the Eleven returned to Parliament when anti-Army riots broke out in London. However, Presbyterian support collapsed when General Fairfax and the New Model Army occupied London in August. Stapleton and five of the other impeached MPs took ship for France. Although intercepted by Parliamentarian warships, the Presbyterian sympathiser Vice-Admiral William Batten allowed them to continue on their way.

Stapleton became feverish during the voyage. He died at an inn in Calais on 18 August 1647. His illness was thought to be the plague, so he was buried immediately at the Protestant cemetery in Calais.

Family
Stapleton married twice, first in 1627 to Frances Hotham (daughter of Sir John Hotham), by whom he had four children:

John Stapleton of Warter (d. 1697)
Robert Stapleton of Wighill (d. 1675)
Mary, who married The Viscount FitzWilliam (d. 1704)
another daughter
His second wife was Barbara Lennard, daughter of The Lord Dacre. Their five children were:

Henry Stapleton of Wighill (d. 1723)
Philip Stapleton of Wighill (d. 1729)
Frances Stapleton
and two other daughters.

British Civil Wars
From a Memoir in the King’s Pamphlets we get some account of his character and personal appearance. The writer again seems to be his friend, Denzil Holles. Like his illustrious kinsman, Lord Fair-fax, "Sir Philip was of a thin body and weak constitution, but full of spirit, which was too soon spent (if God had seen it good) with the manifold endeavour and excessive pains he day and night underwent for the service of this poor kingdom, and yet he exposed himself to the greatest hazards in the war, daring as much and going as far in that service as any mortal ever did; witness those eminent engagements of his in the two great battles of Keinton [Edgehill] and Newbury, in which he was in a very high degree instrumental to the gaining of the day in both . . . For his parts they were very eminent; he was quick of apprehension, sound of judgment, of clear and good elocution, and in things wherein the just rights of the Kingdom . . . was concerned . . . he ever spoke freely and with great abilities . . . For his Religion, he was a true and zealous Protestant, though not in any way new-fangled; yet abun-dently careful, and curious enough to discover the saving truths in fundamentals of faith and knowledge . . . He was a religious lover of both his wives and all his children, without partiality; breeding them up in the fear of God, giving life unto his admonitions and counsels, by his holy, humble, and affectionate carriage and conversation towards them." Of: , Warter, Yorkshire, England He was educated in 1617 in , Cambridge, England, Queens College Member of Parliament: Apr 1640, Hedon Member of Parliament: Boroughbridge He resided at St. Martin’s Lane, London, , England after 1646. He signed a will on 5 Jun Philip married Frances HOTHAM, daughter of Sir John HOTHAM Bart., in 1627.1 Philip also married Barbara LENNARD, daughter of Henry LENNARD 12th Lord Dacre and Chrysogona BAKER, on 6 Feb 1638 in Blackfriars, London , , England, St. Anne’s, Church Entry.1 (Barbara LENNARD was born on 1 Apr 1604 in , Hurstmonceaux, Sussex, England.)

Biography
Married Elizabeth Goslinge, widow, on July 12,1617 at Bungay, St. Mary. Both are shown as being from Holton[1]

Newer research indicates that his step-father was Rowland Clarke and his mother was Mary, but not Mary Hobart.[2]

Research Notes
As their marriage was in Suffolk and their marriage indicates that they came from Holton, Suffolk, a potential document for a christening in 1592 in SAINT MARY STOKE,IPSWICH,SUFFOLK,ENGLAND[3] which would say his father's name was Richard.

Biography
John R. Warren[1]

Note: John "R." Warren is used as an identifier, because John signed documents using an "R" (p 11). Others who were closely associated with John also signed with an "R," which is sometimes assumed to denote "Royalist" (many escaped Cromwell's England after the official 1649 opening for settlement of the Rappahannock Valley). However, on the Samuel Bloomfield deed of 1678, John no longer used the "R," but signed with a unique symbol (pictured on page 13). John's wife Rachel also twice used an "R" as her signature, once backwards, and on her will she added a dot in the loop (p 35). She once used the unique symbol, and slanted it (p 31).[1]

Sometimes called "John Radcliff Warren," without evidence or citation. Note: Middle names were extremely unusual before about 1800 (except for royalty).

Uncertain Origin
John Warren was probably born in England. His birth date, birth place, and parents are not known. Birth date, 1635, is a guess based on his marriage c. 1655. Seems this date is used by genealogists to identify this John Warren from others of the same name.

This profile has been disconnected from Thomas Warren as father. We have no evidence that he was John's father.

DNA
John Warren has been placed in the Old Rappahannock Warren Dna haplogroup.[2] HAPLOGROUP R1b1a2a1a1b4 all kits relating to this John incl these markers.

Of course, as Stephen Ballard emphasizes, "The [DNA] information is useful only when combined with a well-researched family history."

Lack of a well-researched family history among the participants has emerged as a major stumbling block; "The cruel irony of genetic genealogy is that usually those being tested are those with the least amount of knowledge about their families."[3]

Immigration
Holland Warren suggests that among the immigrant candidates named John Warren, only one is a possibility. On 24 October 1650, Sir Thomas "Luntsford" patented 3, 423 acres on the south side of the Rappahannock, for the transportation of 65 persons; among them was a "Mr. Warren."[4] However, there is no proof that this was the identical John Warren.

John may have arrived in Virginia sometime before 21 June 1658, when he probably appointed his "loveing friend Mr. Rich. Browne" to represent him in an appeal to the Quarter Court. This was regarding some sort of civil suit against Stephen Tichnor, details of which have been lost to history (pp 8-9).[1] This may be our first record of John Warren in Virginia; however there is no proof that he was the identical John Warren.

Richard Browne "may have been" the identical Richard Browne who was transported to Virginia by Capt. Daniell Gookin on 4 November 1642 (p 9).[1] Among those transported was a Thomas Warren, who is assumed to have been the Thomas Warren of Surry County.[4][1] However the connection is minimally circumstantial, because in 1656, a Thomas Warren was found at Lancaster County, near the Gookin patent. This was more likely the man transported and not Thomas Warren of Surry County.[1] There is no evidence associating John "R" Warren with Thomas Warren of Surry County.

Disputed Marriage
John is assumed to have married to Rachel Williams, daughter of John Williams, of Occupatia Creek.[1]

The date (5 May 1679, or 1665) and place (St George, Spotsylvania) of their marriage are claimed in various user-contributed data bases, without evidence or citation.

Whatever date is used, a patent from 1 June 1663 to Mr. William Pierce (Perce) for 4,054 acres in Farnham Parish, Rappahannock County, in return for transporting 81 persons included: Rachel, Margaret, and Margery Williams, thought to have been the daughters of John Williams (p 14).[1] Of course, the date a patent was issued was often years after the actual voyage(s) of those transported.

We have circumstantial evidence that the Rachel who married John Warren was a daughter of John Williams. The Warren land bordered the Williams property. In addition, these gifts and deed are evidence of the close ties between the Williams and Warren families. On 2 December 1679, John Williams made a gift of a calf to Rebecca Warren, daughter of John Warren (p 15).[1] On 28 January 1689, Richard West (John Warren's partner) sold 300 acres on Occupatia Creek to John Williams (p 15).[1]

Others believe that Rachel was a daughter of William Sargent. In his will, written on 14 April 1683, William Sargent, of Rappahannock County, left 100 acres to John's son, William Warren (pp 21-22). However William would receive the land only on the condition that Sargent's own son, George, die before reaching the age of 21. George must have lived, because William Warren never received the property.[1] However, Holland Warren, in his follow-up book, Warrens and related families of North Carolina and Virginia Revisited, which focuses on John R. Warren, reached the conclusion that, "In fact there was no Rachel Sargent, she has been created in someone's imagination."[5]

Property and Positions
John was often associated with Richard West. On 28 January 1667[?/8], John and Richard paid Cornelius Noell 1500 pounds of tobacco for about 275 acres which lay on the south side of the Rappahannock "in the freshes," about four miles from the river, on the main branch of Occupacia Creek "beginning at the head of a valley on the north side of the branch, running across the same and over Chikahomany Indian Path."[1]

John sold this property on 6 March 1668 to his partner, Richard West, but it was returned to the family (p 11).[1] After John's death, some thirty years later, his widow and sons re-purchased this and adjacent land (p 8).[1]

John and his family were members of the Sittenburne Parish of the Anglican Church.

Death and Legacy
John Warren wrote his will on 25 November 1691 at Essex? or Surry County, Virginia. However his body was found and identified in Westmoreland County.

John and Rachel were probably buried at St. Annes Parish Church, located at the confluence of Occupacia Creek and the Rappahannock River.

Research Notes
County Names and Geography
Note: Lancaster County formed from Northumberland in 1651, and Westmoreland also formed from Northumberland in 1653. Rappahannock (Old) County formed from Lancaster in 1656. Westmoreland County still exists today, located in the Northern Neck. The Rappahannock River divided Westmoreland County on the south from Rappahannock (Old) County on the north. Essex County formed from Rappahannock (Old) in 1692.[6] Occupatia Creek enters the Rappahannock River from the south side.[7] The waterways were the highways of Virginia in the 17th Century.

John was born in 1640. He passed away in 1691. [8]

Biography
Richard Clarke, the only known child of Thomas Clarke and Elizabeth Goslinge, was born in 1618 at Bradwell (near Holton), County Suffolk, Enlgand. When age 19, Richard sailed to Barbadoes in 1632, on the ship ‘Peter Bonaventure,’ Thomas Harmon, ship Master. Richard married on 31 July 1639, to Ann Winston, at Bradwell, County Suffolk, England. She was born about 1622 at Belton (near Holton), County Suffolk, England. She was the daughter of Henry (b. 1596) and Margery (Kebel) (b. 1598) Winston. They arrived in New York, New York in 1650.[1] New Richard and Ann (Winston) Clark, Sr., had one known child.

Research Notes
Elmer S. Clark was of opinion that Richard Clarke was the father of Richard Clarke, but we have found no compelling evidence to substantiate this. In view of the large number of Richard Clark(e)s found in England, and the fact, as Savage has pointed out, that there were some 40 different Clark families who emigrated from England to the colonies, E.S.Clark’s conclusions as to the Richard Clark/Ann Winston parentage has to be just speculation. Pierson, who was a compiler and not a genealogist, elected to accept it, but without proofs. The problem is that the Clark/Winston speculation then had found its way into two separate volumes, which does not give it substance. There is also speculation as to Richard Clarke’s origins, prior to his being “in Southampton, L.I. in 1661,” in such places as New England and the Barbadoes. Again, we have found no documentation for any of these.

Biography
John R. Warren[1]

Note: John "R." Warren is used as an identifier, because John signed documents using an "R" (p 11). Others who were closely associated with John also signed with an "R," which is sometimes assumed to denote "Royalist" (many escaped Cromwell's England after the official 1649 opening for settlement of the Rappahannock Valley). However, on the Samuel Bloomfield deed of 1678, John no longer used the "R," but signed with a unique symbol (pictured on page 13). John's wife Rachel also twice used an "R" as her signature, once backwards, and on her will she added a dot in the loop (p 35). She once used the unique symbol, and slanted it (p 31).[1]

Sometimes called "John Radcliff Warren," without evidence or citation. Note: Middle names were extremely unusual before about 1800 (except for royalty).

Uncertain Origin
John Warren was probably born in England. His birth date, birth place, and parents are not known. Birth date, 1635, is a guess based on his marriage c. 1655. Seems this date is used by genealogists to identify this John Warren from others of the same name.

This profile has been disconnected from Thomas Warren as father. We have no evidence that he was John's father.

DNA
John Warren has been placed in the Old Rappahannock Warren Dna haplogroup.[2] HAPLOGROUP R1b1a2a1a1b4 all kits relating to this John incl these markers.

Of course, as Stephen Ballard emphasizes, "The [DNA] information is useful only when combined with a well-researched family history."

Lack of a well-researched family history among the participants has emerged as a major stumbling block; "The cruel irony of genetic genealogy is that usually those being tested are those with the least amount of knowledge about their families."[3]

Immigration
Holland Warren suggests that among the immigrant candidates named John Warren, only one is a possibility. On 24 October 1650, Sir Thomas "Luntsford" patented 3, 423 acres on the south side of the Rappahannock, for the transportation of 65 persons; among them was a "Mr. Warren."[4] However, there is no proof that this was the identical John Warren.

John may have arrived in Virginia sometime before 21 June 1658, when he probably appointed his "loveing friend Mr. Rich. Browne" to represent him in an appeal to the Quarter Court. This was regarding some sort of civil suit against Stephen Tichnor, details of which have been lost to history (pp 8-9).[1] This may be our first record of John Warren in Virginia; however there is no proof that he was the identical John Warren.

Richard Browne "may have been" the identical Richard Browne who was transported to Virginia by Capt. Daniell Gookin on 4 November 1642 (p 9).[1] Among those transported was a Thomas Warren, who is assumed to have been the Thomas Warren of Surry County.[4][1] However the connection is minimally circumstantial, because in 1656, a Thomas Warren was found at Lancaster County, near the Gookin patent. This was more likely the man transported and not Thomas Warren of Surry County.[1] There is no evidence associating John "R" Warren with Thomas Warren of Surry County.

Disputed Marriage
John is assumed to have married to Rachel Williams, daughter of John Williams, of Occupatia Creek.[1]

The date (5 May 1679, or 1665) and place (St George, Spotsylvania) of their marriage are claimed in various user-contributed data bases, without evidence or citation.

Whatever date is used, a patent from 1 June 1663 to Mr. William Pierce (Perce) for 4,054 acres in Farnham Parish, Rappahannock County, in return for transporting 81 persons included: Rachel, Margaret, and Margery Williams, thought to have been the daughters of John Williams (p 14).[1] Of course, the date a patent was issued was often years after the actual voyage(s) of those transported.

We have circumstantial evidence that the Rachel who married John Warren was a daughter of John Williams. The Warren land bordered the Williams property. In addition, these gifts and deed are evidence of the close ties between the Williams and Warren families. On 2 December 1679, John Williams made a gift of a calf to Rebecca Warren, daughter of John Warren (p 15).[1] On 28 January 1689, Richard West (John Warren's partner) sold 300 acres on Occupatia Creek to John Williams (p 15).[1]

Others believe that Rachel was a daughter of William Sargent. In his will, written on 14 April 1683, William Sargent, of Rappahannock County, left 100 acres to John's son, William Warren (pp 21-22). However William would receive the land only on the condition that Sargent's own son, George, die before reaching the age of 21. George must have lived, because William Warren never received the property.[1] However, Holland Warren, in his follow-up book, Warrens and related families of North Carolina and Virginia Revisited, which focuses on John R. Warren, reached the conclusion that, "In fact there was no Rachel Sargent, she has been created in someone's imagination."[5]

Property and Positions
John was often associated with Richard West. On 28 January 1667[?/8], John and Richard paid Cornelius Noell 1500 pounds of tobacco for about 275 acres which lay on the south side of the Rappahannock "in the freshes," about four miles from the river, on the main branch of Occupacia Creek "beginning at the head of a valley on the north side of the branch, running across the same and over Chikahomany Indian Path."[1]

John sold this property on 6 March 1668 to his partner, Richard West, but it was returned to the family (p 11).[1] After John's death, some thirty years later, his widow and sons re-purchased this and adjacent land (p 8).[1]

John and his family were members of the Sittenburne Parish of the Anglican Church.

Death and Legacy
John Warren wrote his will on 25 November 1691 at Essex? or Surry County, Virginia. However his body was found and identified in Westmoreland County.

John and Rachel were probably buried at St. Annes Parish Church, located at the confluence of Occupacia Creek and the Rappahannock River.

Research Notes
County Names and Geography
Note: Lancaster County formed from Northumberland in 1651, and Westmoreland also formed from Northumberland in 1653. Rappahannock (Old) County formed from Lancaster in 1656. Westmoreland County still exists today, located in the Northern Neck. The Rappahannock River divided Westmoreland County on the south from Rappahannock (Old) County on the north. Essex County formed from Rappahannock (Old) in 1692.[6] Occupatia Creek enters the Rappahannock River from the south side.[7] The waterways were the highways of Virginia in the 17th Century.

John was born in 1640. He passed away in 1691. [8]

Notes:

Well, you (unnamed correspondant) are mostly accurate concerning the Girlington name and the info on Thurland, but not quite.

The original name was Gyrlyngton and S L O W L Y became Girlington and finally after the 1800 US census, Gillentine.The name Gyrlyngton was, according to The Yorkshire Place Name Society has identified the Gyrlyngton family to have derived it's name from the "tun" or "town" of Gyrla, a Saxon settlement of early Yorkshire prior to the Norman invasion. This was also a period of time before surnames were used. The first recorded Gyrlyngton was Waleran De Gyrlyngton b: abt. 1058 . Waleran was Lord of Gyrlyngton-juxta-Wycliffe near Richmondshire during the reigns of Henry I and Stephen (1100-1154).Waleran may well have been a descendant of one of William the Conqueror's invading Normans, most of whom were given land for their support.

As for Thurland Castle:

Sir John Girlington, b: 1560, was Lord of Hackforth and Hutton Longvillers in Richmondshire. He exchanged the manor of Hutton Longvillers with Francis Tunstall of Wycliffe in Lancashire for the castle and manor of Thurland and the manor and advows on of the Church of Tunstall in 1605. He died in Thurland Castle on 28 Feb.1613. Before his death, he conveyed the Manor of Hackforth to his brother Thomas.

Sir John Girlington (son of Nicholas)b: July 19, 1613 at Kirkby, Malham, Yorkshire, d: March 1645 in Melton Mobray, England +Katherine Girlington (his 5th cousin - daughter of William Girlington) b: 1617 in Southcave, Yorkshire. Made knight, major general, and sheriff of Lancshire by Charles I on the 6th of June, 1642. Killed in the King's Service at Melton Mowbray (may have actually died a few weeks later due to gange green from a musket ball in his foot). He became heir to the family fortunes after the death of his brother Josias in youth. Like all his predecessors, he was a Roman Catholic; therefore a staunch supporter of Charles I during the English Civil War. After a seven week siege on the castle, he surrendered Thurland Castle to the Protestant Parlimentary forces who backed the Cromwell lead Civil War / Revolt - approximately in 1644.

Sir John's son was the last Girlington to actually inhabit the castle or the castle grounds.John Girlington b: July 9, 1634d: 1706 m: abt 1674 +Margaret Duckett b: abt 1638, Westmoreland, England.Apparently allowed to reside in Thurland Castle for some time after the war ended.However, most likely lost nobility title and ownership of the castle and lands.Margaret was pledged to Sir John Girlington's male heir as part of an alliance between the Bellingham/Duckett families and the Girlington families.Bellingham was strategically located near the Scottish border to the north. (Margaret was John's 1st wife and Nicholas was the only child. She most likely died in childbirth or from complications shortly thereafter.2d wife Margaret Curven produced 5 daughters)Ironically, Margaret Duckett was a descendant of the Tunstall and Bellingham families.The Tunstalls were the original owners of Thurland Castle, as well as the original grant of 1004 acres around the castle.What's more ironic, after the leases to the castle paid of the fines on Margaret and John Girlington for being "Jacobites" (supporters of James II and the Stewart line), John was allowed to live on the grounds but not in the castle ... the Tunstall family was eventually granted back the castle.John Girlington died almost penniless.The only recognition remaining today of the Girlington family and Thurland castle is a small gold plaque that the friars placed in the small church on the Thurland grounds .. it merely bares his name, birth in 1634, Lord of Thurland Castle, and that he died in 1706.

So as castles go, the Girlington family actually lived in Thurland for a relatively short period ... 1605 to sometime before 1706.

Yes, Nicholas did have a drawing of the remaining wing. Since he was born some years after the siege destroyed the rest of the castle, that wing is all he knew.It was the billiard room, what we would call a den, dining hall, smaller ante rooms, and a kitchen on the first floor.The upstairs area of that wing was merely sleeping quarters.I have a reprint of that drawing (first floor only).

Today, the castle has been rennovated into apartments.The apartments are 3 and 4 bedroom settings.The price range is between $500,000 and $1,000,000 US.The first person to purchase a 4 bedroom unit will be declared Lord of the Manor.

Don

endo fhis profile

Born at Thurland Castle in the Parish of Cantsfield to Sir John Girlington of Thurland and his wife Katherine Girlington, a cousin, born in South Cave, Yorkshire.

John Girlington succeeded his father as heir to the family possessions at Thurland Castle and elsewhere while still a minor after his father Sir John Girlington was killed during the defense of Pontefract Castle in 1645. John was first married to Margaret Curven, daughter of Sir Henry Curven of Workington, knight, about 1655. After the restoration of the Stuarts, Charles II made John Girlington High Sheriff of Lancashire in 1663. John filed a bill touching his mother's inheritance in 1671. He stated in this bill that Thurland Castle had been taken and demolished by Parliamentary forces and that his father (Sir John) had conveyed all of his title deeds to Pontefract Castle for safe-keeping. He further stated that afterwards Pontefract was also taken by the Parliamentarians (in 1645) and that all the said deeds were then destroyed. As High Sheriff, John was able to return Thurland Castle to an inhabitable condition.

It is believed that wife Margaret died during the birth of their daughter Elizabeth in December 1675.

It is also believed that John Girlington married Margaret Duckett, daughter of James Duckett of Grayrigg, Westmoreland County, esquire, soon after the death of his first wife.

It is possible that Margaret Duckett gave birth to Nicholas Girlington out of wedlock, which could account for Nicholas not being identified as heir to John's possessions. This issue may take much more research for resolution.

The Girlingtons seemed to have constantly been plagued with financial difficulties from the time they took possession of Thurland Castle in 1605. This culminated in John Girlington having to sell the castle in 1698 to John Bennett, a lawyer of some importance in London. Following the sale of Thurland, John Girlington moved the town of Hornby (possibly Hornby Castle) where he died in 1706. Daughter Katherine Askew was the executrix of her father's estate in 1706.

Child of [John Girlington] and [Margaret Duckett] is:

i.[Nicholas Gillington], born Abt. 1676 in [Thurland Castle, Lancastershire, England]; died Bef. December 16, 1773 in Halifax Co., VA; married (1) [Mary Eleanor Eckolls] Abt. 1714 in [VA/England]; married (2) [Elizabeth Ricketts] Bef. 1742 in VA.

The date is due to Col. North. In a fine of 1693 respecting the manor of Tunstall, the advowson of the church, &c., John Girlington was deforciant and Robert Fowler plaintiff; Pal. of Lanc. Feet of F. bdle. 230, m. 165.

A brass plate in the church states that John Girlington died in 1706, aged sixty-nine.

Sir John's son was the last Girlington to actually inhabit the castle or the castle grounds.

John Girlington b: July 9, 1634 d: 1706 m: abt 1674 +Margaret Duckett b: abt 1638, Westmoreland, England. Apparently allowed to reside in Thurland Castle for some time after the war ended. However, most likely lost nobility title and ownership of the castle and lands.

Margaret was pledged to Sir John Girlington's male heir as part of an alliance between the Bellingham/Duckett families and the Girlington families. Bellingham was strategically located near the Scottish border to the north. (Margaret was John's 1st wife and Nicholas was the only child. She most likely died in childbirth or from complications shortly thereafter.

2d wife Margaret Curven produced 5 daughters) Ironically, Margaret Duckett was a descendant of the Tunstall and Bellingham families. The Tunstalls were the original owners of Thurland Castle, as well as the original grant of 1004 acres around the castle. What's more ironic, after the leases to the castle paid of the fines on Margaret and John Girlington for being "Jacobites" (supporters of James II and the Stewart line), John was allowed to live on the grounds but not in the castle ... the Tunstall family was eventually granted back the castle.

John Girlington died almost penniless.

The only recognition remaining today of the Girlington family and Thurland castle is a small gold plaque that the friars placed in the small church on the Thurland grounds .. it merely bares his name, birth in 1634, Lord of Thurland Castle, and that he died in 1706.

So as castles go, the Girlington family actually lived in Thurland for a relatively short period ... 1605 to sometime before 1706.

Biography
When Thomas1 Gaskins (c.1601–1665) claimed a headright for transporting his daughter Elitia, she was recorded as Mary Gaskins. 'Mary' doesn't appear to be a clerical error, but it's not clear why she used two names. The name 'Elitia' is very unusual and is considered to have originated in America. It's possible the first person to use it was this Elitia (Gaskins) Mayes. Amongst the descendants of Thomas1 Gaskins, the immigrant, it appears at least three more times. The name appears with many variant spellings like Elesha, Elisha and Elisher, but spellings like Eliza and Alicia appear to be modern mistranscriptions.

Elitia was born say 1630. She married Lieut. Col. Henry Mayes say 1651. Administration of her estate was granted at Northumberland County, Virginia 19 Aug 1708.

From http://www.thesalmons.org/lynn/family/nick1.html

One of the earliest of my family to come to the Americas, he married [Mary] Eleanor Echols and I believe Eleanor's mother's line was already in Virginia before Nicholas got here. His name has been alternately spelled Guillentine or Gillington.

Nicholas Gillentine, born in 1676 at Thurland Castle was the son of John Girlington and Margaret Curwen. John Girlington later re-married to his first wife's cousin Margaret Duckett. Nicholas was most likely born in the left wing of Thurland Castle after the destruction of the castle by Cornwall's forces. Since the Girlington's were staunch Catholics, the coming of Protestant William and Mary to the throne in 1689 was a possible cause for the move to America.

Nicholas was decribed by Milner Echols in his book, "History of Echols Family", as 'outlandish'. It is possible that Nicholas was illegitimate, and that his parents wed after his marriage (as his father was married once before). This could also explain his not inheriting any of his father's estate and his decision to migrate to the Americas.

Nicholas and Eleanor had 5 children:

John Gillington b: 1722 d: 1763 m: Rachel Hendrick
Eleanor b: 1716 m: John Chisum
Catherine b: 1724 m: Goran Brown
Ann b: 1730 m: Matthew Hillsman
Elizabeth b: 1720 m: Joseph Collins
Nicholas' 2nd wife was Elizabeth Ricketts

INFORMATION ABOUT THURLAND CASTLE: (found at www.thesalmons.org) Thurland Castle in Lancashire dates to 1402 when Sir Thomas Tunstall, knighted by Henry V at Agincourt, was granted a royal licence to crenellate his manor house. The castle is built on a low mound and is encircled by a moat. My ancestor, Elizabeth Tunstall was born in Therland Castle about 1410. On the 9th of July 1465, Edward, in consideration of "magnum et laboriosam diligentiam suam circa captionem et retinentiam magni proditoris, rebellis, et inimici nostri Henrici, nuper vocati Regis Henrici Sexti, per ipsum Jacobum factum," gave to Sir James Haryngton a grant of Thurland Castle and other lands, formerly belonging to Richard Tunstell,* a partizan of Henry. --Foedera, XI. 458. About 1605, Francis Tunstall sold Thurland to John Girlington. The castle was occupied by the Girlington family in the 1600's. John died in 1612. In 1619, Nicholas Girlington, heir to John, mortgaged Thurland Castle. Sir John, son and heir of Nicholas, a knight and Major-general in the Civil War, surrendered the Castle to the Parliamentary forces. Nicholas Girlington who died in Halifax Co. VA in 1773 left a signed paper in Halifax Court records showing a sketch of a wing of the castle. John Girlington and second wife Margaret Duckett were probably the last Girlington residents of Thurland castle. Today, the castle has been converted into 7 "luxury apartments" by local developers.

Nicholas Gillentine's residence before 1698 was Thurland Castle, Tunstal, Lancashire, England. His residence after 1698 was at Hornby Hall, Hornby, Lancashire, England.

Nicholas was most likely born in the left wing of Thurland Castle after the destruction of the castle by Cornwall's forces. Since his family, the Gillentine's, were Catholics the coming of Protestants William and Mary to the throne in 1689 was a possible cause for his move to America.

Nicholas was described by Milner Echols in his book, "History of Echols Family", as 'outlandish'. It is possible that Nicholas was illegitimate, and that his parents wed after his birth (as his father was married once before). This could also explain why he did not inherit any of his father's estate and could also be what influenced his decision to immigrate to the United States.

He immigrated to the United States in about 1706 to Halifax Co.,VA. His will was dated October 21, 1772 Halifax,Halifax Co.,VA. His estate Inventory and Appraisal was dated November 29, 1773, Appraisers: John C. Hobbs, John Hughes and Edward Tabb. Executors Thomas Mumford and George Booker. Value 36 pounds 10 pence: Slaves: 1 Negro woman named Rose.His probate was dated December 16, 1773 Halifax County, Virginia.

Nicholas GILLENTINE was born about 1676 in England, and had immigrated to Virginia by about 1710, when he married Eleanor Echols. Francis Gill[1] writes,

"I am very confident of the information back from us [he brings some lines of descendancy lines down to the present {about 2000}, but our line enters the family with Richard and Sarah (Hillsman) Borum] to Nicholas Gillentine, because I have done the research myself.

"Nicholas Gillentine" seems to be the immigrant for the family. There are no others of the surname, or likeness of that surname, in Virginia earlier. His birth year does fit the second marriage of John Girlington [the man thought to be his father]…. As with other cases in genealogy, a ‘leap of faith’ is required."

Two things make it certain that Nicholas Gillentine was the immigrant: Francis found no others of that surname or likeness of that surname, in Virginia, earlier than or contemporaneous with Nicholas; and Echols[2] signed a family genealogy[3] on 14 June 1850, in which he writes in his own quaint style,

"Old English John Echols--had 3 Daughters which I would have inserted had Known enough about them to give any satisfactory account of them---I only Know they married Outlandish men-one an Englishman named Nicholas Gilington---of their family I know nothing..."

By "outlandish", Milner certainly means that they were immigrants, although the term in today’s usage does not suggest that definition. Wading through Milner’s history is difficult and he gives no dates, but his outline of the family has been found to be surprisingly accurate by those who have followed his clues and used census records and state and county documents to prove his statements.
Nicholas and his wife were the parents of one son and four daughters. If there were other children, they have not been identified.
I have seen conjecture that after his wife Eleanor died, he married an Elizabeth Ricketts. I do not know whether this is correct.
A transcription of his will follows:

"In the Name of God, Amen. I, Nicholas Gillington of Halifax Co., being weak in body but in sound and perfect sense and memory, thanks be to God for same, Calling to mind that men must die and after that must come to judgement, do consider that what of our affairs are not settled in this life cannot be settled hereafter, do make and ordain this, my last will and testament, acknowledging this to be my last will and testament, disannulling all other wills whatsoever, and to proceed, I shall give my estate as followeth, to-wit:

I give to my daughter Catherine Brown one feather bed, to her and her heirs;

to Elizabeth Collins I give one feather bed, to her and her heirs;

to Elizabeth Chisum, daughter of John Chisum, I give one feather bed, to her and her heirs;

to my son John Gillington I have given 400 acres of land which I intended should be his full portion, nevertheless, to take matters out of dispute, I give to his heirs five pounds cash.

To John Chisum I give the land and plantation which I now possess in Amelia Co., containing 300 acres, to be at his own disposal for which reason he is to pay to Catherine Brown or to her heirs, -20. current money; to Elizabeth Collins or her heirs, -20.; to Ann Hillsman or her heirs, -20.; to Eleanor Chisum or her heirs, -20.; to Priscilla Hendrick, my granddaughter, or her heirs, -20.;

and as for my negro woman Rose, she shall choose her mistress among my daughters, and they that she shall choose shall pay -20. to be equally divided among all my children now living and my two granddaughters, which is Elizabeth Chisum, wife of John Estes, and Jerushea, daughter of John Gillington, deceased.

I therefore make and ordain John Chisum my whole and sole executor of this, my last will and testament, made in the year 1772, and on the 21st day of October.

"In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand.

"Nicholas Gillington

"Witnesses:
John Dyer
John Templeton
Elizabeth Lack"

He died in 1774 in Halifax County, Virginia, and is buried there.

There is a hand-drawn picture on the outside of Nicholas’ will, believed to have been drawn by Nicholas himself, that purports to look like Thurland Castle in Yorkshire. Francis describes the drawing as bearing a remarkable resemblance to the left wing of the castle as it looks today.

There is no question that the name was earlier "Girlington", and a Girlington family inhabited that castle, having been driven out during one of the revolutions there.

A ‘genealogy’ for Nicholas follows, which Francis Gill believes is accurate but requires a ‘leap of faith’, because it cannot be, or at least has not yet been proven; note that the name ‘Nicholas’ was in the family early:

[2] Milner is descended from an Elizabeth Milner who married first John Palmer and second James Echols. She is not the Elizabeth Milner, born about 1680, daughter of John Milner and Katherine, who is a sibling of Person Number 1239 in this compilation; the time is wrong by about 100 years. There was a Milner in Virginia by 1624 when he is found on a census, while John, the immigrant Milner in our line, arrived in North America in 1659.

Abstracted from, "The Wiseman Family and Allied Lines", Volume I, by Eugene Wiseman, 1991, pp. 359-360:

"The Gillentine family of early Virginia records is of English extractions,the name being alternately spelled Guillintine, Guillington, Gillinton,Girlington. The head of the Girlington family of Yorkshire, England had the given name "Nicholas" for many generations, as did the progenitor of the Virginia Family and several of his descendants.

Among the Halifax County,VA courthouse loose papers is a crude drawing of the left wing of the Thurland Castle and following inscription:

"Nicholas Gillinting, his hand in the 97th year of my age 1773"

This inscription particulary well written for a person of his advanced years and is the only record which tells the age of Nicholas Gillentin. Although there is no proof in the church records it is believed, based on the drawing, that Nicholas is the son of John Girlington of Thurland Castle and his second wife Margaret, daughter of James Ducket of County Westmorland. John Girlington (born 1637) was the oldest surviving son of Sir John Girlington of Thurland Castle and his wife Katherine, daughter of Wm. Girlington (a cousin)."

It is possible that Margaret Duckett gave birth to Nicholas Girlington out of wedlock, which could account for Nicholas not being identified as heir to John's possessions. This issue may take much more research for resolution.

end of commentary

Nicholas Gillington, born about 1675 in Thurland Castle , had son John and daughters Ann, Elizabeth, Catherine, and Ellender. Was decribed by Milner Echols in his book, "History of Echols Family", as 'outlandish'. It is probable that Nicholas was illegitimate, and that his parents wed after his birth (as his father was married once before). This would explain his not inheriting any of his father's estate and his decision to migrate to the Americas.
