  • The Family and Descendants of Sir Thomas More
    The Family and Descendants of Sir Thomas More Grandparents: William More and Johanna Joye: William was a Citizen and Baker of London. He died in 1469. Johanna (d.1470) was the daughter of John Joye, a Citizen and Brewer of London and his wife Johanna, daughter of John Leycester, a Chancery Clerk. Due to the seizure of family documents by Henry VIII following Thomas More‟s execution his ancestry cannot be traced back further than this. He referred to himself as “a Londoner born, of no noble family, but of honest stock”. [Note: It has sometimes been claimed that Sir John More, Thomas More‟s father, said that his ancestors came from Ireland. However, what he actually said was that his ancestors “either came out of the Mores of Ireland, or they came out of us”. No records of any Irish links have been discovered.] Parents: Sir John More (c.1451-1530) and Agnes Graunger (d.1499): John and Agnes were married in the church of St Giles without Cripplegate, London, on 24th April 1474. Agnes was the daughter of Thomas Graunger, an Alderman of London and a Merchant of the Staple of Calais. Agnes was John More‟s first wife, and the mother of all his children. Agnes died in 1499 and was buried in the Church of St. Michael Bassishaw, London. After her death John More married again three times. His second wife was Joan Marshall (the widow of John Marshall) who died in 1505. His third wife was Joan Bowes (the widow of Thomas Bowes) who died in 1520.

    Sir Marmaduke Constable, of Flamborough K. R. DOCKRAY IN 1513, at the age of some sixty years, Sir Marmaduke Constable, of Flamborough, captained the English left wing at the battle of Flodden. The resulting defeat of the Scots provided a fitting climax to a personal career stretching back to the 14703.l ‘Little Sir Marmaduke’, as he was seemingly known to contemporaries, had served Edward IV in France in 1475 and had been with Richard of Gloucester at the taking of Berwick in 1482.2 Under Henry VII he had played an active part in northern government, most notably as Shcriff of Yorkshire during the turbulent year 1488/9.’ But by far the most interesting and rewarding years of his life were those spent in the service of Richard III. Sir Marmaduke’s family, seated at Flamborough in Yorkshire’s East Riding (with a second seat at Somerby in Lincolnshire), was among the wealthiest and most influential of all the northern knightly clans in the later fifteenth century. Indeed, his father Sir Robert Constable possessed estates worth in excess of £300 per annum when he died in 1488.“ This Sir Robert, moreover, had managed to pick his way with some skill through the formidable political obstacles posed by the Wars of the Roses. There is a suggestion that he had connections 'with Richard Neville Earl of Salisbury,’ but this is probably belied by his presence in the Percy force at Heworth on August 24, 1453.6 In the later years of his life he certainly became a member of the affinity of the fourth Percy Earl of Northumberland.7 But loyalty to the crown (whoever the king might be) and, presumably, a sense of his own self-interest, always took precedence.
