Descents From Edward III For Ramsden Appleyard

Legg inn av Brad Verity » 08 mai 2007 10:56:17

Ramsden Appleyard (living 1776) was the son of Captain Francis
Appleyard, Receiver General of the Land Taxes for part of Yorkshire.
Though the family had long been at the East Riding manor of Burstwick
Garth, 8 miles East of Hull, in the wapentake of Holderness, Capt.
Francis resided in Beverley (about 9 miles NNW. of Hull), where he was
a leading citizen. I chose to trace Ramsden Appleyard's 7 descents
from Joan Beaufort as I thought it was an interesting name, and as he
is an addition to Ruvigny's account of the family in his Plantagenet
Roll: Exeter Volume, p. 345. Ramsden's existence is found in two A2A
documents.

DDRI/44/13 Copy will of Ramsden Barnard of Beverley esquire... Ramsden
son of Francis Appleyard, Beverley; William second son of Hugh
Bethell, Rise, esquire; sister Anne Barstow ... Will dated: 16 Jan 1748

DDRI/46/13 Petition in Chancery of William Bethell in Ramsden
Appleyard and William Bethell versus Ann Barnard lunatic deceased and
others Mar 1776

Though Ruvigny could not trace the Appleyards into the 19th century,
Ramsden's existence allows for the possibility that the family did
continue on, and there may be Appleyard descendants of Edward III
living today.

The Appleyards originated in Lincolnshire, and in the early 16th-
century, one John Appleyard moved to the East Riding town of
Heslington, 2 miles SE. of the city of York. Through his mother, he
was related to the Lords Sheffield, but his own children married into
nearby minor gentry families. One grandson, Thomas Appleyard, became
mayor of York, while another grandson, John Appleyard (died 27 April
1597), obtained the manor of Burstwick Garth. When and how this
occurred is not clear (I don't have ready access to VCH Yorkshire East
Riding Vol. 5), but it established him enough to take for his second
wife a woman of the Edward III bloodline. Katherine Norton (buried 28
January 1610), according to John Appleyard himself in the 1584
Visitation pedigree of the family, was "dau. to John Norton, of
Acclom, nephew and heir to Sir Sampson Norton". But the only
Visitation pedigree of the Nortons that assigns any issue to John is
the 1575 Visitation pedigree, in which he is said to have "a sonne and
2 d. all sans issu". As the only nephew John that Sampson Norton had
was this John, the eldest son of his eldest brother Francis, a
possibility is that Katherine was one of these two daughters who were
without issue in 1575. She would have married John Appleyard by
1580. But the chronology is too tight for Bridget Stapleton, the wife
of John Norton, to be the mother of Katherine, for Bridget was only
age 18 in 1569 when the Nortons took part in the disastrous Rising of
the Earls, and John's father and grandfather were attainted and fled
to Flanders.

In order to reconcile the specific statement of John Appleyard in 1584
regarding his wife's parentage, Katherine must have been an
illegitimate daughter of John Norton, who was in all likelihood
several years older than his wife. As the eldest son of the eldest
son of a woman born in 1500, John Norton could have been born as early
as 1540, and so old enough to have fathered a daughter who was herself
a mother in 1580. The 1665 Visitation pedigree of Norton of Sawley
says John died young, but this is incorrect. Though Norton Conyers
remained confiscated from the family due to attainder, the Queen in
1572 granted John a lease of a meadow and water-mill on the Yore,
adjoining Norton Conyers, and he is said to have lived and died in
peace in Yorkshire.

Thomas Appleyard (1580-1660), the son of John Appleyard and Katherine
Norton, had two wives, both descended from Edward III. The first,
Anne Legard, daughter of Christopher Legard of Anlaby, whom he married
in 1598, died the following year. His second wife, whom he married by
1600, was a widow, Elizabeth Turner, daughter of Marmaduke Monkton of
Cavill. Their son Sir Matthew Appleyard (1608-1670) was the most
notable member of the family and has an entry in the new Oxford
Dictionary of National Biography. He appears in Ruvigny's Plantagenet
Roll, and Ramsden Appleyard was the great-grandson of Sir Matthew.

Many thanks, John. The 1776 Chancery case must then have been William
Bethell renewing a previous one. Do you know if any male-line
Appleyards made it into the 19th century?

You certainly have a number from which to choose.
The parish register of Saint John's Church, Beverley, Yorkshire is extracted herewww.familysearch.org- IGI - British Isles - Batch C106622

Matthew 1721
Anne 1722
Jane 1723
Frances 1724
William 1725
Margaret 1728
Thomas 1730
Ramsden 1736

Thanks, Will. Are all of these children of Francis Appleyard?
Ruvigny only mentioned Matthew, Jane, William and Margaret, but
provides baptism dates, so I wonder what his source was (since he
researched in the early 20th-century, long before the IGI).

Anyways, thanks to you and John Watson, we know have Ramsden
Appleyard's (love that name) baptism and burial dates.

Cheers, -----Brad
