BRAILSFORD. Great Bedwyn is at tlie present time a little village in the county of Wiltshire. It must formerly have heen of larger importance, con- sidering that it sent two members to parliament. Traces of Roman occupation have from time to time been discovered, and a tesselated pavement was one of the antiquities long preserved. A spiked head of a mace made of bronze was found in a well and exhibited some few years since at a meeting of Arcliieologists held at Salisbury. The church is now the principal feature in the place, and has unfortunately undergone very extensive restoration. In the churchyard is a stone cross, and though, as usual, the summit has suffered mutilation, the shaft, pedestal, and steps are in good preservation. In the interior of the church there are several interesting monuments, particularly those connected with the great Seymour family. -
Jane Seymour 1509 – 24 October 1537
Jane Seymour 1509 – 24 October 1537 Jane was the eldest of the eight children of Sir John Seymour of Wolf Hall, Savernake, Wiltshire and his wife Margaret, daughter of Sir John Wentworth of Nettlestead, Suffolk. According to court gossip and an inscription on a miniature by Nicholas Hilliard she was born about 1509, probably at Wolf Hall. There is unsupported evidence that as a young woman Jane was a maid of honour to Mary, queen of Louis XII of France, who was Henry VIII's sister. She was subsequently appointed as lady in waiting to Catherine of Aragon and, on Catherine's divorce, to the same role with Anne Boleyn. She was described as of middle stature , of no great beauty, of pale complexion and commended for her intelligence. In February 1536, Henry VIII was writing to her with dishonourable proposals as well as money which Jane returned to him with the comment that her honour was her fortune. It appears that Jane was only prepared to withstand his suggestions unless she was his wife. It was his anxiety to set Jane in Anne's place that ensured that legal proceedings were taken against the latter. Jane at this time kept herself removed from the king outside London. Before 15 May 1536, the date of Anne Boleyn's trial, Jane moved to a house on the Thames and was brought news of Anne's condemnation and beheading four days later. It is understood that Archbishop Cranmer issued a dispensation for the marriage that day and the betrothal took place the following morning. -

Descent of St. Maur and Seymour Families
-390- ST MAUR AND SEYMOUR DESCENT OF ST.MAUR FAMILY OF CO.MONMOUTH AND SEYMOUR FAMILY OF HATCH, CO.SOMERSET by Paul C. Reed1 ABSTRACT This Seymour family became renowned in the person of Jane Seymour, who died twelve days after the birth of Edward, the only legitimate son of Henry VIII to survive infancy. It is not surprising that the origins of this family came under the focus of the earliest English historians and genealogists, including Camden, Dugdale and Vincent. Brydges and others later attempted fuller accounts in their works on the peerage, but the paucity of surviving records has allowed errant conclusions and fictions to persist in the most widely available modern accounts. The purpose of this article is to present a fresh analysis of what survives and bring the subject up to current standards of scholarship. Foundations (2008) 2 (6): 390-442 © Copyright FMG and the author As is the case with so many medieval English families, our knowledge of the earliest generations of the Seymours in the century and a half after Domesday is vague and uncertain. The earliest definitely traceable ancestor appears in record because of his acquisition of land—he burst onto the scene through conquest. In a period when preserving the king’s peace would normally have forbad dispossessing anyone of a manor (whether they had been in legitimate possession or not), at this specific time it furthered the interests of the crown to have Englishmen displace the native Welsh. Even after the family acquired heritable land, the descent of the male line through the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries is not entirely certain because of the scant survival of documents concerning manors and lands in the Marches of Wales. -

THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES PROB 11/28/96 1 ________________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY: The document below is the Prerogative Court of Canterbury copy of the will, dated 12 March 1540 and proved 11 May 1540, of Margery Wentworth Waldegrave (buried 7 May 1540), whose great-grandson, Sir William Waldegrave (c.1540 – 25 August 1613), was a co-guarantor, with Oxford’s first cousin, John Darcy (d.1581), 2nd Baron Darcy of Chiche, of Oxford’s debt to the Court of Wards. In 1572, Sir William Waldegrave and Lord Darcy jointly entered into guarantees amounting to £5000 for Oxford’s debt to the Court of Wards (see TNA C 2/Eliz/T6/48). For Sir William Waldegrave, see the will of his father, Sir William Waldegrave (1507?-1554), TNA PROB 11/37/466. The testatrix’ will reveals the close ties between the Waldegrave family and the Earls of Oxford: And I will that my son, Anthony Waldegrave, shall have the chain that was my Lord of Oxenford’s. TESTATRIX’ RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER MEMBERS OF THE WENTWORTH FAMILY The testatrix was the aunt of Sir John Wentworth (1494-1567) of Gosfield Hall, friend and executor of John de Vere (1516-1562), 16th Earl of Oxford. For the will of Sir John Wentworth, see TNA PROB 11/49/288. For the will of the 16th Earl in which he appoints the testatrix’ nephew as one of his executors, see TNA PROB 11/46/247. The testatrix was also the aunt of Henry Wentworth (died c.1545), whose grandson, Lord William Wentworth (1555/6-1582), married Oxford’s sister-in-law, Elizabeth Cecil (1564-1583). -

Richard Seymor
RICHARD SEYMOR HARTFORD, r640 A PAPER READ BEFORE The Connecticut Chapter Daughters of Founders and Patriots of America At Norwalk, Conn., February IJth, I903 BY MRS. MARIA W ATSQj~ PINNEY De}~by, Conn. THE TUTTLE, MOREHOUSE & TAYLOR PRESS, NEW HAVEN BROUGHT FROM ENGLAND. RICHARD SEYMOUR. -MADAM PRESIDENT :-When I pledged to write what I had gathered from ~radition, from investiga tion and from the research of others, relative to Richard Seymour, I did not understand that a very competent party had nearly completed the geneal ogy _of his five succeeding generations, although I knew it had been discussed for twenty-five years, but I supposed its publication as far in the futntl"~ as ever. It stands without question that a genealogy can not be published without funds, and while the ~ime has passed since the work has been in preparation, several parties who' were i~terested, and would probably have subscribed for more than one copy, have passed "the dark river, which has never been shadowed by a homeward sail," and t4ey who have spent time and money collecting and arranging material for the book, have waited for funds to publish. If my articl~ can induce any person who inherits the blood of Richard Seymour to assist in this publication, by subscribing for the same, I shall have helped forward a meritorious work. There being in the near future a probability that two or three volumes of genealogical statistics will ~e published, it is useless for me in a paper of thirty minutes to refer to his descendants. Who was Richard Seymour? who came to Hart ford in 1639/40, and was one of the signers of the agree~ent for planting Norwalk June 19th, 1650, and among the first settlers soon after. -

For alternate dates of death given in the inquisitions post mortem taken after his death, see Dawes, M.C.B., ed., Calendar of Inquisitions Post Mortem, (London: Her Majesty’s Stationery Office, 1955), Vol. III, pp. 104-5, 142-3, 257, 259, 284-5, 470- 1, 537 at: http://archive.org/stream/calendarofinquis03great#page/104/mode/2up/ The testator is said to have been ‘one of the richest non-baronial landowners in England’. He was a close associate of John de Vere (1442-1513), 13th Earl of Oxford, whom he appoints as supervisor of his will: [A]nd supervisor of this my testament and last will mine especial and singular good Lord, John, Earl of Oxenford. The testator was made a Knight of the Bath when Richard, Duke of York, second son to King Edward IV, one of the two young princes later murdered in the Tower, married Anne de Mowbray on 15 January 1478. See Shaw, William A., The Knights of England, (London: Sherratt and Hughes, 1906), Vol. I, pp. 138-9, and Tindal, N., The History of England by Mr Rapin de Thoyras, Vol. IV, Part II, (London: John and Paul Knapton, 1747), p. 263, available on the Hathitrust website at: https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=njp.32101080467085;view=1up;seq=653.
