Hi...My grandfather's name was George Lancaster and I know he was born in England and married my grandmother Mary Rillie (she was born in Scotland)and they lived in Montreal, Quebec Canada. My Dad was born in 1933 so I am assuming George was born around 1911 or so. Judith Lancaster 20 December 2006 		LOGAN, Mary (I11001)

BREDMER, usually called Broadmead, is another manor, near the western bounds of this parish, adjoining to Cheriton, in which it is partly situated. It was most probably, in early times, in the possession of a family of its own name; for in the antient deeds and courtrolls of Valoigns, who were owners of Cheriton in king Edward II. and III.'s reign, there is frequent mention of several of this name, who held lands of the Valoigns family; but before the latter end of king Edward III.'s reign, it was come into the possession of William de Brockhull, of Saltwood, whose second son Thomas Brockhull leaving an only daughter and heir Elizabeth, she carried it in marriage to Richard Selling, in whose descendants it remained till Henry VIII.'s reign, when it was passed away to Edmund Inmith, a retainer to Thomas, lord Clinton, and he gave it to his second son Edmund Inmith, who leaving two daughters and coheirs, one of whom married Rayner, and the other Baker, the latter of them, in right of his wife, shared this manor as part of her inheritance, and in king James I.'s reign alienated it to Beane, in which name it continued some length of time, and till it was sold to Worger, and thence again to Bayley, in which name it remained till Mrs. Elizabeth Bailey and other conveyed it to William Bouverie, earl of Radnor, whose son the right hon. Jacob, earl of Radnor, is the present owner of it. A court baron is held for this manor.

MOREHALL is a small manor near Cheriton, which was antiently held of the barony of Folkestone by knight's service, by William de Valentia, who in the 27th year of king Henry III. obtained a charter of privileges for it. William de Detling held it in king Edward II.'s reign; after which it passed into the possession of a family who took their name from it. When this family was extinct here, which was about king Henry IV.'s reign, the Bakers, of Coldham, became possessed of it. At length John Baker, of Coldham, dying anno 17 Henry VI. Joane, one of his daughters and coheirs, entitled her husband Robert Brandred to it; and their son Robert, about the latter end of that reign, passed is away to Sir Tho. Browne, of Beechworth-castle, whose descendant Sir Matthew Browne, at the very latter end of queen Elizabeth's reign, alienated it to Thomas Godman, of London; (fn. 9) from which name it was sold, anno 3 Charles I. to John Eldred, esq. one of whose descendants, anno 34 Charles II. passed it away to John Michel, esq. and from him, anno 5 queen Anne, it was alienated to Jacob Desbouverie, esq. in whose family it has continued in the same manner as the rest of his estates in this parish, to the right hon. Jacob, earl of Radnor, the present possessor of it. A court baron is regularly held for this

Caldham, usually named Coldham, from its exposed situation, is a manor in the south-east part of this parish [Capel-le-Ferne], which was anciently the patrimony of a family bearing the same name. Prior to the time of Richard II it passed away to the Bakers, in which it continued to John Baker, of Caldham, porter of Calais under Henry V and VI, who, dying without male issue, and leaving five daughters, this estate went with Joane to Robert Brandred, whose son, of that name, at the close of the reign of Henry VI, passed the property to Sir Thomas Browne, of Beechworth Castle.

CALDHAM, now usually called Coldham, from its cold and exposed situation, is a manor in the south-east part of this parish, which appears by records to have been antiently the patrimony of owners of the same name, who bore for their arms, Gules, a fess, ermine, between three martlets, argent; but before the reign of king Richard II. they had passed it away to Baker, a family of good account in this part of the county, having a peculiar chancel belonging to them in Folkestone church, who resided at it; and in this name it continued down to John Baker, of Caldham, who was gentleman porter of Calais in the reigns of Henry V. and VI. and bore for his arms, Argent, on a fess, nebulee, sable, a tower, triple-towered, of the first, between three keys of the second; perhaps in allusion to his office. He died without male issue in the 17th year of the latter reign, holding this manor in capite, and leaving five daughters his coheirs; and upon the division of their inheritance, Robert Brandred, in right of Joan his wife, the fourth daughter, became entitled to it; and their son Robert, about the latter end of king Henry VI. passed it away to Sir Thomas Browne, of Beechworth castle, whose descendant, Sir Anthony Browne, in the 33d year of king Henry VIII. exchanged it for other premises with that prince, who in his 36th year, granted it to William Wilsford, and others, citizens of London, to hold in capite; and they, in the 37th year of it, alienated it to John Tuston, esq. of Hothfield, whose grandson Sir Nicholas Tuston, knight and baronet, was by king Charles I. created Baron of Tuston and Earl of Thanet, in whose descendants it has continued down to the right hon. Sackville, earl of Thanet, the present owner of it.

Kentish archæology, Volume 1, p. 10, "Folkestone Church"
By William Archibald Scott Robertson

In the latter year, 1464, John Baker directed his executors to "make one work called 'an yle' with a certain window in the same, acting upon the best advice they can obtain from such parishioners as are most worthy of being consulted upon the matter; this work shall be built and constructed between the vestry of the church, and the great window, with such materials as shall be bet and most suitable for it, in stone, glass, iron, lead, wood, and all things needful." We are enabled to fix the position of this aisle by means of the tetiony of Philipot, the herald and historian, who was himself born at Folkestone, about 100 years after John Baker made his will In his account of the parish of Capel ['Villare Cantianum,' p. 96.] Philipot says that the family of Baker, of Caldham in Capel, and of Morehall in Folkestone, had a peculiar chancel belonging to them in this church; he adds that it was near the vestry door, and over the charnel house His mention of the vestry door identifies the Baker Chancel with the aisle built or rebuilt by John Baker's executors, and his allusion to the charnel house shews that the Baker Chancel was upon the south side of this church. The charnel house is a vault beneath the south chancel, in which vault tradition says were interred the bones of men killed in a great battle fought near Folkestone, the bones of their opponents, far greater in number, being deposited in a charnel house beneath the south chancel of Hythe Church. The battle theory is questionable; but there is great likelihood that bones from the desecrated cemetery of the old Priory and Church may have been deposited together in one vault here.

In connection with Baker's south chancel, we may mention as bequest made by Thos. Newsole in 1465 for a window in the south part of this church, opposite the altar of St George. To the light of St. George, John Baker left a bequest of 4d. Newsole's bequest may have referred to the south wall of the old nave, if not, it must have been an addition in or near to John Baker's Chancel, and this idea is supported by Baker's bequest to St. George's Light. What was the dedication of Baker's south chancel we cannot clearly ascertain. He left bequests to the Light of the Little Cross of which he was a brother, and to the Light of St Mary of Pity. From other wills we learn that there was a chancel dedicated to St Mary of Pity, and that there was a "Light of Holy Cross in the chancel of St Mary de Pity," [John Cole's will, 1472.] so that we may perhaps have ground for supposing that Baker's chancel was dedicated to St. Mary of Pity. It is probable, but not certain.

John Baker.
John Baker, of Folkstone [apparently of the family from which Sir Richard Baker, the celebrated Chronicler, was descended.] on the Wednesday [26th September] next before the Feast of St Michael, 1464. Alicia, my wife. I will that, immediately after my decease, my executors, out of my goods and chattels, shall place my aforesaid wife in the House or Hospital of St Bartholomew, Sandwich; and I will that all my lands and tenements, within the ville and liberty of Folkstone (except three roods of land at Dullingburgh, and my lands at Merefeld, which I bequeath to my second sister, Granriger), be sold, and with the money arising therefrom that my said executors make a new work called an Isle [aisle], with a window in it, with the advice of the parishioners, which said work shall be built between the Vestry there and the great window, and to be built of stone, with lead, glass and wood, as is seemly and meet for such a work.

On the east part of these hills, towards the declivity of them, the soil changes to chalk, and not far from the foot of them are the houses of Longage and Siberton, the former of which belonged to the Sawkins's, and then to the Scotts, a younger branch of those of Scotts-hall.

East Lyghe, now called Lyghe-court of Eastlegh, is a manor in the north-west corner of this parish, near the Stonestreet way, which in king Edward II.'s reign was held by Stephen Gerard, of Henry de Malmayns, who again held it of the castle of Dover. Salkelds, of Yorkshire, and bishopric of Durham was owner and one of his descendants alienated it, about the latter end of queen Elizabeth's reign, to Mr. Nicholas Sawkins, of Longage, in this parish, who died in 1619; at length his descendant Mr. William Sawkins gave it in marriage with his daughter to Mr. Anfell, and his heirs passed it away by sale to Bridges, whose descendant Thomas Bridges, esq. of St. Nicholas, in the Isle of Thanet, is now the proprietor of it.

Regarding Sibeton or Sibton: This manor came during the reign of Queen Elizabeth to Mr. Nicholas Sawkins, in whose family and name it continued till the year 1786, when Mr. Jacob Sawkins, of Sibton, conveyed it by sale to William Honywood, esq. next brother to Sir John Honywood, bart. who resides here, and is the present owner of this manor. (fn. 9) A court baron is held for it.

Memorials to the family of Sawkins are in the south aisle of the church.

Sir Fulke GREVILLE of Beauchamp's Court

Born: ABT 1491, probably Milcote, Warwickshire, England

Died: 10 Nov 1559

Buried: 11 Dec 1559, Alcester Church, Warwickshire, England

Father: Edward GREVILLE of Milcote (Sir)

Mother: Anne DENTON

Married: Elizabeth WILLOUGHBY BEF Apr 1526

Children:

1. Fulke GREVILLE (Sir Sheriff of Warwick)

2. William GREVILLE (b. ABT 1531)

3. Mary GREVILLE

4. Robert GREVILLE

5. Helen (Eleanor) GREVILLE

6. Edward GREVILLE (Sir)

7. Catherine GREVILLE

8. Catherine GREVILLE

9. Blanche GREVILLE (b. ABT 1544 / 1547) (never marr.)

Second son of Sir Edward Greville of Milcote, Weston-upon-Avon by Anne, dau. of John Denton of Wittenham, Berks.; brother of John. Married by Apr 1526, Elizabeth, dau. and coheiress of Edward Willoughby, later de jure suo jure Baroness Willoughby de Broke, by whom he had seven sons and eight daughters. Kntd. 1542/43. Feodary, Worcs. and Warws. 1534-5; j.p. Warws. 1537-d.; sheriff, Warws. and Leics. 1542-3, 1547-8; commr. contribution, Coventry 1546, chantries, Leics., Warws. and Coventry 1548, enclosures, midland counties 1548, 1549, relief, Warws. 1550, goods of churches and fraternities 1553; other commissions 1540-57.

Sir Edward Greville had originally intended to marry his eldest son John to Elizabeth Willoughby, but he yielded to her preference for his younger son Fulke, who thus became a considerable landowner. Elizabeth and her sisters Anne and Blanche were heirs general of their grandfather Robert, 2nd Lord Willoughby de Broke, and although he had settled the greater part of his family estates on the issue of his second marriage, they inherited their grandmother's share of the Beauchamp inheritance. In 1526 Elizabeth and her husband obtained possession of a third part of four manors in Somerset, Warwickshire and Worcestershire, two years later this was doubled on the death of Anne, and at some time before 1543 the remaining third passed to them when Blanche, who had married Sir Francis Dawtrey, died without issue. Lord Willoughby's settlement did not prevent conflict over the disposition of his estate but the almost inevitable lawsuit was settled by compromise. By a fine in Hilary term 1542 Sir Anthony Willoughby, Lord Willoughby's brother, agreed to release to the Grevilles and their heirs his interest in the manor of Frampton, Lincolnshire, and Wardour Castle, Wiltshire, and in lands in Guernsey, with a special entail to his wife Isolde's issue, as well as in a number of other manors in Cambridgeshire, Gloucestershire, Hertfordshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Somerset and Staffordshire to which he had less claim; in return Greville agreed to pay 550 marks and to make Willoughby a good estate in lands to the yearly value of £20 in Gloucestershire, Hampshire and Wiltshire. Sir Anthony also relinquished his claim to lands in Cornwall and Dorset to Elizabeth Greville's aunts, then married to Charles Blount, 5th Lord Mountjoy, and John Paulet, later 2nd Marquess of Winchester.

This was not the only dispute which arose over the Willoughby inheritance: Sir David Owen sued Greville for possession of the manor of Islehampstead Latimer, Buckinghamshire, and Greville and his wife themselves took action against Thomas Stapeldon for the manor of Lightwood in Staffordshire (a case not settled at his death) and against William Bostock for several manors in Gloucestershire and Warwickshire. Greville was to complain in his will that to establish the whole inheritance had been very costly. He certainly died in debt and had been in difficulty for some years before. In 1555 he surrendered himself to the Marshalsea and was pardoned an outlawry which had been proclaimed in Hertfordshire in Edward VI's time when he failed to meet a demand by Edmund Twyneho and his wife, executrix of Robert Burgoyne, for a sum of £40. (It follows that he was twice returned a knight of the shire while an outlaw.) The main source of his troubles, however, seems to have been his involvement in the marriage of Henry Compton of Compton Wynyates, Warwickshire. Having obtained in Anne Neville, daughter of the Earl of Westmoreland, for his heir he evidently hoped to obtain a countess's heir for one of his daughters. On the evidence of his will he paid William Herbert, Earl of Pembroke, Compton's stepfather, £100 for his goodwill and the countess £500, besides selling lands at their behest for £400 less than he might have had. He claimed that he had gained nothing by doing so and that some recompense was due to him.

It is not clear what lands Greville sold. The only properties which he is known to have bought, the manor of Easenhall in Monk's Kirby from Edward Browne, and the priory manor of Alcester from the crown, were to remain in the family, and beyond these all that he held in his own right was the manor of Over, which he left to his executors for the payment of his debts. All the manors mentioned at any time as belonging to his wife's inheritance were to appear in her inquisition, with the exception of the lordship of Auneville, Guernsey, sold to Nicholas and Thomas Fasshyn in 1545, Wardour, sold to Sir Thomas Arundell in 1547, Cattered, or Cheyneys, Hertfordshire, sold to Thomas Docwray in 1551, and Coton, Northamptonshire, sold at some time before 1552 to Thomas Andrews of Charwelton. The only other property known to have been alienated was Greville's town house in Fetter Lane, which he sold to the attorney-general, Edward Griffin, in 1555.

Greville probably increased his indebtedness by building a magnificent new house at Beauchamp's Court. Leland noted in 1543 that he was building it with stone taken from Alcester priory and it was still being extended at his death. None the less, the family fortunes were never desperate: the younger sons were established without difficulty as life tenants of some of the lands, two of the daughters were well if not brilliantly married and the unmarried daughters were given dowries of 400 marks to which their mother was to add another £500. The annual value of the estate as given in Elizabeth Greville's inquisition was over £370.

Greville's public life suffered no interference from his private embarrassments. He was active in local administration; he served with 40 men in the suppression of the Pilgrimage of Grace and in the army against France in 1544 as part of the rearguard; and he attended the reception of Anne of Cleves and the funeral of Henry VIII. His standing in his shire is reflected in his election as one of its knights, and usually as the senior, to four Parliaments, more than any other of its gentlemen achieved. Of the many connexions in high places that his marriage had brought him, his kinship with the 3rd Marquess of Dorset, who is known to have sought to influence the elections there on at least one occasion, may have been a factor in his earlier successes. Nothing is known of his role in the Commons and unlike his fellow-Member Sir William Wigston he was not among those who quitted the Parliament of Nov 1554 without licence.

Greville made his will on 12 Sep 1559 and died on the following 10 Nov. He was buried at Alcester with great pomp and ceremony, a feast being provided for both rich and poor, and Machyn mourned him as ‘the best housekeeper in that country’. An altar-tomb was erected to his memory. His grandson Fulke was created Baron Broke of Beauchamp's Court in 1621 and a later descendant had his claim to the barony of Willoughby de Broke allowed in 1696.

2731 Ralph Basset, 1st Baron Basset (born before 1265 – 31 December 1299) of Drayton Bassett in Staffordshire, was an English nobleman who fought in both the Anglo-French War and in the First War of Scottish Independence. He was the son of one of Simon de Montfort's barons, Ralph Basset (d.1265), and Margaret de Somery. In 1291, he was made Governor of Edinburgh Castle.[1] He was created 1st Baron Basset of Drayton in 1295.

Family and title
Ralph Basset was the son of one of Simon de Montfort's baronial lords, also called Ralph Basset, and Margaret de Somery.[2] Ralph senior was killed in the Battle of Evesham with de Montfort's forces in 1265 with his lands and titles being forfeited due to his rebellion.

In some records Ralph Basset is listed as the 2nd Baron Basset of Drayton, his father being the first. The Barony of Drayton was created during Simon de Montfort's Parliament in 1264 but the validity of the summons and appointments have been debated over the subsequent centuries. Depending on the view taken, in 1295, Ralph Basset was either created as the 1st Baron Basset of Drayton or he regained his father's title as the 2nd baron.

Ralph Basset married Hawise de Grey and on his death at the close of 1299 was succeeded by his son, another Ralph Basset.

Governor of Edinburgh Castle
In the political tumult brought about by the various competitors for the Crown of Scotland, Edward I of England was able to gain an advantage. On 11 June 1291 the town and castle of Edinburgh were placed into his hands and he subsequently granted the governorship of Edinburgh Castle to Drayton and the Castle was garrisoned with English soldiers.[3]

2732 Ralph de Stafford, 1st Earl of Stafford, 2nd Baron Stafford, (24 September 1301 – 31 August 1372), KG, of Stafford Castle and Madeley Castle[3] in Staffordshire, was an English nobleman and notable soldier during the Hundred Years War against France.

Early life and family
Ralph was born on 24 September 1301, the son of Edmund de Stafford, 1st Baron Stafford and Margaret Basset.[4] Having lost his father at the age of seven, Ralph grew up in the midlands with his mother's relatives, including her second husband Thomas Pipe. He had his first experience of royal service, along with his brothers and stepfather, when he joined the retinue of Ralph, 2nd Lord Basset.[5]

Career
Stafford was made a Knight banneret in 1327 and was fighting the Scots shortly afterwards. He supported the plot to free Edward III of England from the control of Roger Mortimer, which earned the king's gratitude. By the summer of 1332, he was a commissioner of the peace in Staffordshire and had served abroad on royal business, accompanying Hugh de Audley, 1st Earl of Gloucester. He was also still fighting the Scots, commanding archers at the Battle of Dupplin Moor on 11 Aug 1332 and on three further Scottish campaigns.[5]

He was first summoned to Parliament by writ as Lord Stafford on 29 November 1336 and continued to attend until 1350.

His military career continued, accompanying King Edward to France in 1338 as an advisor and being present at the naval battle of Sluys on 24 June 1340. He also fought at the relief of Brest and the siege of Morlaix. He was captured at Vannes but was exchanged in time to negotiate a truce at Malestroit.

On 6 January 1341, he was made Steward of the Royal Household but resigned that post on 29 March 1345 having assumed the office of Seneschal of Aquitaine, an English possession in France, where he stayed for about a year. He took part in the Gascon campaign of 1345 including the battles of Bergerac and Auberoche, the siege of Aiguillon, from where he escaped prior to its lifting, a raid on Barfleur and the English victory at the Battle of Crecy, on 26 August 1346. He became one of the twenty-six founding members and the fifth knight of the Order of the Garter in 1348.[5][6]

In November 1347, his wife's father died; they were able to take possession of his estates without paying the king's homage, an indication of the relationship between them. Ralph was now a very wealthy man, from his estates and from the many prizes from the French war.[5]

Edward III created a number of new peerage titles to honour his war captains and to mark his jubilee year. Ralph was created the 1st Earl of Stafford on 5 March 1350, with an annuity of 1000 marks. He now replaced Henry of Grosmont, 1st Duke of Lancaster as the king's lieutenant in Gascony. He committed to serve with 200 men at his own expense with the expectation of this being doubled in March 1353 at the king's expense. The campaigns provided several captives that were ransomed, but were ultimately unsuccessful, leading to the appointment of Edward, Prince of Wales to command.[5]

Even at the age of sixty, Stafford continued to command troops and act as a royal envoy, both in France and in Ireland in 1361, accompanying Lionel of Antwerp to try and restore English control.

Marriages and children
Around 1326, Stafford married his first wife, Katherine de Hastang.[4][7] Katherine was the daughter of Sir John de Hastang, Knight, of Chebsey, Staffordshire.[8] Ralph and Katherine had two daughters:

Margaret Stafford, married Sir John de Stafford, Knight, of "Broomshull" (Bramshall near Uttoxeter, Staffordshire[9][10][11][12]) and Amblecote in the parish of Old Swinford, Worcestershire,[13] ancestor of several prominent Stafford lines, most notably Stafford of Hooke in Dorset, Stafford of Southwick in Wiltshire and Stafford of Grafton in Worcestershire.
Joan Stafford, married Sir Nicholas de Beke, Knight.
He later sensationally abducted Margaret de Audley, 2nd Baroness Audley, daughter of Hugh de Audley, 1st Earl of Gloucester and Margaret de Clare, who was worth at least £2,314 a year, more than ten times his own estates. Her parents filed a complaint with King Edward III of England, but the King supported Stafford's actions. In compensation, the King appeased Hugh and Margaret by creating Hugh the 1st Earl of Gloucester. Margaret de Audley and Stafford married before 6 July 1336 and they subsequently had two sons and four daughters:

Ralph de Stafford (d. 1347), married Maud of Lancaster, daughter of Henry of Grosmont, 1st Duke of Lancaster and Isabel de Beaumont in 1344.[5][14]
Hugh de Stafford, 2nd Earl of Stafford, born circa 1336 in Staffordshire, England, married Philippa de Beauchamp; they were the ancestors of the Dukes of Buckingham (1444 creation).[14]
Elizabeth de Stafford, born circa 1340 in Staffordshire, England, died 7 August 1376, married firstly Fulk le Strange;[14] married secondly, John de Ferrers, 3rd Baron Ferrers of Chartley; married thirdly Reginald de Cobham, 2nd Baron Cobham.[15]
Beatrice de Stafford, born circa 1341 in Staffordshire, England, died 1415, married firstly, in 1350, Maurice FitzGerald, 2nd Earl of Desmond (d. June 1358); married secondly, Thomas de Ros, 4th Baron de Ros, of Helmsley; married thirdly Sir Richard Burley, Knt.[14]
Joan de Stafford, born in 1344 in Staffordshire, England, died 1397, married firstly, John Charleton, 3rd Baron Cherleton;[14] married secondly Gilbert Talbot, 3rd Baron Talbot.[16]
Katherine de Stafford, born circa 1348 in Staffordshire, England and died in December 1361. On 25 December 1357, she married Sir John Sutton III (1339 – c. 1370 or 1376), Knight, Master of Dudley Castle, Staffordshire.[17] Burke reports that she died without issue.[18] However, Burke is often erroneous and incomplete, and later evidence supports that she is the mother of John Sutton IV, 3rd Baron Sutton of Dudley, probably having died in childbirth.[19]
Death
He died on 31 August 1372 at Tonbridge Castle, Kent, England.[5] He was buried at Tonbridge Priory,[20] next to his second wife and her parents.[5]

Biography
Denne’s earliest known ancestor held lands in east Kent under John, and his son, Sir Alured, was seneschal of Christchurch Priory, Canterbury and escheator for Kent in 1234.13 Denne himself was born to a prosperous yeoman at Denne Hill in the parish of Kingston, five miles south-east of Canterbury. In the family’s possession from at least the mid-thirteenth century, Denne Hill lay at the heart of a modest estate that was expanded under Elizabeth to include purchases in neighbouring Barham and the Isle of Thanet. Following his father’s death in 1594, Denne, the eldest of five sons, should have inherited the Kingston-Barham estate, but it was conferred on his brother John instead. Moreover, the bulk of the Thanet property was divided between two other brothers, Vincent and Edward. The few lands specifically allocated to Denne were expressly withheld during the lifetime of his mother, who used them to amass more than £2,000 in rents in just 12 years. However, some property, unmentioned in the will, must have passed automatically to Denne, for in about 1606 he conferred lands on John worth £200 a year, plus £400 in cash. The condition of this gift was that John would leave Denne his entire estate if he died childless.14

Shortly after attaining his majority, Denne underwent a legal training at the Inner Temple, culminating in his admission to the bar in June 1607. He may have received encouragement from another Thomas Denne, New Romney’s standing counsel and perhaps a kinsman.15 By 1612 he was living in Canterbury,16 where from 1617 he was retained as counsel by the corporation following John Finch II’s* elevation to the recordership. For much of the 1620s Denne helped defend Canterbury’s charter at Westminster.17 However, his election to Parliament for the city in 1624 was contrary to the wishes of his employers. He and his fellow Canterbury resident, the self-styled puritan Thomas Scott*, persuaded each other to stand to prevent the return of the duke of Lennox’s secretary John Latham, whom Scott ‘much suspected for his religion’ and whose candidacy was supported by the city’s aldermen.18 On the strength of this evidence, Denne has been described by one historian as ‘a puritan lawyer’.19

Denne played little recorded part in the 1624 Parliament. On 25 Mar. he was nominated to the bill committee for the repeal and continuance of expiring statutes, and on 22 Apr. he reported a naturalization bill for the Norwich grain merchant Peter Verbeake.20 While at Westminster, Denne’s brother John secretly drafted his will. Instead of settling his entire estate on Denne, as agreed, John divided up the property he had bought with Denne’s money between his brother Vincent, Denne’s youngest son Thomas, and a clerk named James Benchkin. For some while after John’s death in February 1625, Denne remained ignorant of the will’s existence, so that on taking action against the Benchkins in 1626 he assumed that John had died intestate.21 On discovering the truth, Denne decided not to pursue Vincent, for as Vincent was unmarried it was possible he would inherit his entire estate anyway. However, he seized control of John’s lands and obtained permission to administer his goods and cash, for which he was hounded by the administrators of John’s widow, Elizabeth, who had died within hours of her husband. Indeed, over the next 16 years he fought a fierce rearguard action in several ecclesiastical courts as well as King’s Bench, Common Pleas, the Privy Council (where Denne was severely criticized) and, in 1641, the House of Lords.22

Denne’s decision not to pursue Vincent through the courts may have been misguided. Shortly before their mother died in February 1634, Vincent allegedly persuaded her to leave most of her property to him, including the share of the Thanet estate reserved for Denne in their father’s will. In this way Vincent compensated himself for his impending loss of Denne Hill, which at long last passed to Denne. Vincent’s final act of spite was to settle most of his estate on Denne’s youngest son, Thomas, two months before his death in June 1642, leaving Denne only a single cottage and plot of land in Kingston, worth just £35.23 Vincent’s will consequently set Denne and his eldest son John against Thomas, who was banished from his father’s presence.24 Thomas and Henry Oxinden of Barham (Vincent’s executor) were prosecuted, first in the Court of Wards and, after that court’s abolition in 1646, in Chancery. The quarrel proved so bitter that Denne even attempted to recover the cost of his son’s education, while Thomas accused John of having secretly poisoned Denne against him.25 Denne argued that he needed Vincent’s estate, having five daughters and ‘not means sufficient to raise convenient portions for them’, whereupon Thomas retorted that his father was ‘esteemed a man of £800 per annum or thereabouts and to have divers thousand pounds in his purse, besides his yearly gainings by his p[ro]fession as a counsellor at law’. Denne never forgave Thomas, even after John’s death in 1648, for in 1655 he settled his whole estate on his daughter Mary and her husband, Vincent Denne† of Gray’s Inn.26

During the First Civil War, Denne became recorder of Canterbury and chairman of the city’s ‘county’ committee. The assertion that he was a republican seems to be unfounded.27 Increasing infirmity probably explains his replacement as recorder in 1655 and why, early in 1656, he sought and was granted permission to resign from Canterbury’s Common Council.28 ‘Weak of body’, he drew up a short will on 7 July 1656, in which he asked to be buried at Kingston, ‘where my late wife and ancestors were interred’, and appointing his daughter Mary and her husband as his executors.29 He died a few weeks later at his house in Canterbury, and was buried at Kingston on 1 August. His son-in-law Vincent represented Canterbury in Parliament that same year, and again in 1681.
