Descents From Edward III For Richard Aldeburgh, M.P. 1640-44

Legg inn av Brad Verity » 26 mai 2007 17:14:54

The Aldeburghs are documented as far back as the reign of Edward I,
and took their name from the manor, now called Aldborough, which
straddles the borders of the West and North Ridings, and lies 1 mile
E. of Boroughbridge and 15 miles N.W. of York, on the south bank of
the river Ure. Though successive family heads achieved knighthood in
the 14th and 15th centuries, the family doesn't seem to have become
prominent outside of their local sphere, until Sir Richard Aldeburgh
(d. 1475) was put on a North Riding commission of peace in June 1460,
and achieved some notoriety at the end of that year for being one of
the knights who overcame and beheaded Richard Nevill, Earl of
Salisbury (c.1400-1460) at the Battle of Wakefield. He soon after
married into the Plumpton family, which also helped raise the
Aldeburghs up a notch. His son and heir Sir Richard Aldeburgh (d.
1514) served the Crown as constable and porter of Pontefract, and
married into the rising attorney-gentry Fairfax family.

It was his son and heir, the next Richard Aldeburgh (d. 19 July 1536)
who married into the bloodline of Edward III, but due to poor
identification of generation A4 below, the family's one royal descent
has been ignored for quite some time, likely not helped by the fact
that it is almost entirely a female one up to A6. Thanks to the
efforts of John Higgins, the Aldeburghs have been brought forward, and
this current post will hopefully summarize what is known of them to
date. But they remain a little-researched family, and become very
difficult to follow after 1600, which is curious considering it was in
the first half of the 17th century that any of the family became
Members of Parliament.

The first wife of Richard Aldeburgh (d. 1536) had been a Mauleverer of
Allerton, but she died leaving him with just one daughter, Ursula
Aldeburgh (who married, in 1547, Dennis Plumpton, a descendant of
Edward III). In the early 1520s, Richard, only in his 30s, looked
about for a new wife, and settled on a young co-heiress with the
potential for greatly increasing the Aldeburgh estates. Joan
Mauleverer (born 1511) was the eldest of three daughters of James
Mauleverer (d. 1524), the heir of the family seated at Wothersome, a
West Riding manor about 5 miles North of Leeds. The Wothersome
Mauleverers were very distantly related to Richard's first wife. Joan
and her two sisters stood to split the Mauleverer inheritance once
their paternal grandfather Sir William Mauleverer of Wothersome died,
and they also stood to get a piece of the Wycliffe inheritance after
the deaths of their maternal grandfather Ralph Wycliffe, and then of
their mother Anne Wycliffe, one of his four daughters and co-heirs.
The marriage of Richard and Joan was arranged about 1524, and by 1530
they had a daughter, Jane Aldeburgh (who appears to have died
unmarried - there is no husband assigned to her in the 1585/1612
Visitation pedigree of the family), and in 1533, a son and heir,
Richard Aldeburgh, was born. As it was, the Aldeburghs appeared to
have gained no further lands from the Mauleverer marriage. In 1536,
Joan quitclaimed any right she may have had to her paternal
inheritance, which had been settled by her grandfather on his male
heirs, and the maternal Wycliffe inheritance went the same route -
entailment to the male heirs. Joan quickly remarried after Richard's
death - to a local squire, Peter Slingsby of Marton in Boroughbridge -
and her relations with the Aldeburghs, at least the younger brothers
of Richard, was strained.

Richard Aldeburgh (1533-1613) succeeded to the family estates when he
was only age 3, and became a ward of the crown, since the manor of
Aldborough was held of the Duchy of Lancaster. His wardship and
marriage may have been purchased by Thomas Goldsborough, since Richard
was married to Goldsborough's daughter Eleanor before he reached his
majority. Goldsborough was only 6 miles from Boroughbridge, so the
match was a natural one of two prominent local gentry families.
Richard and Eleanor had three sons and six daughters: Eleanor
Aldeburgh (born October 1553), Dorothy Aldeburgh (baptized at
Aldborough 11 December 1555), William Aldeburgh (baptized at
Aldborough 14 March 1557), Anne or Jane Aldeburgh (mentioned as second
daughter in the Visitation pedigree, but no recorded baptism in IGI),
Francis Aldeburgh (baptized at Aldborough 18 September 1560),
Catherine Aldeburgh (baptized at Aldborough 17 June 1562), Frances
Aldeburgh (mentioned as fourth daughter in the Visitation pedigree,
but no baptism in IGI), Mary Aldeburgh (baptized at Aldborough 8
February 1565), and Richard Aldeburgh (baptized at Aldborough 28
January 1568). Of these, we know the fates of only two: Eleanor
Aldeburgh (1553-1642) was arranged to marry her kinsman William
Mauleverer of Wothersome in 1571, and William Aldeburgh succeeded his
father. In later life, Richard Aldeburgh appears to have run up debts
and was forced to mortgage several of his estates. Monetary need may
explain why he married a second time, on 19 September 1605, to a woman
a full generation younger than him. Lucy Bourchier (buried 8 November
1641), who was the daughter of Sir Ralph Bourchier of Beningbrough,
Yorks. (descendant of Edward III), and born close to 30 years after
the 72-year-old Richard, probably brought with her a large cash
marriage portion.

Few biographical details are known about William Aldeburgh
(1557-1628). He married first, on 29 January 1579, Anne (buried 15
July 1595), daughter of Arthur Kaye of the West Riding manor of
Woodsome Hall, and they had 3 sons and 3 daughters: Richard Aldeburgh
(baptized at Aldborough 19 March 1584; buried there 17 January 1588),
Arthur Aldeburgh (baptized at Aldborough 25 July 1585), William
Aldeburgh (baptized at Aldborough 20 April 1588), Mary Aldeburgh
(baptized at Aldborough 16 May 1590), married in 1616 to Anthony
Wrightson, Jane Aldeburgh (baptized at Aldborough 1 November 1591),
and Dorothy Aldeburgh (d. 1660), who married Francis Rawdon of Rawdon,
Yorks. William married 2nd, on 3 February 1605, Ann Wilson, probably
the daughter or sister of Marmaduke Wilson of Tanfield, to whom
Richard and William Aldeburgh conveyed property in April 1605, and
married 3rdly, at some point before her 1623 death, Mary Burdet
(buried 11 June 1623).

Arthur Aldeburgh (1585-after 1653) succeeded his father William, but
even less can be found about him. He married Elizabeth, daughter of
Richard Holland of Denton, Lancs., and they had four sons and two
daughters: Richard Aldeburgh (born 1607), Arthur Aldeburgh (born
1608/09, living 1628), Thomas Aldeburgh (baptized at Aldborough 17
June 1610, living 1628), Philip Aldeburgh, Elizabeth Aldeburgh, and a
younger daughter (unnamed in Foster's pedigree). It is said that it
was Arthur's eldest son Richard Aldeburgh (1607-1649) who sat in the
Parliaments of 1625 and 1626 for Aldborough, but why the borough would
return a 18-year-old to Parliament is not explained, and it must have
been another Richard Aldeburgh, probably the youngest son of Richard
Aldeburgh and Eleanor Goldsborough, who was born in 1568, and would
have been a seasoned local approaching age 60, who was M.P. for those
two years. It was definitely Arthur's eldest son Richard who was M.P.
for Aldborough from 1640-44, and the family appears to have supported
Charles I during the civil wars, though Arthur suffered the
Parliamentarian army being quartered on his estates in 1644.

In 1653, Arthur married his daughter Elizabeth to John Wentworth of
Wolley and sold (in conjunction with William Aldeburgh, probably his
younger brother, born in 1588) the manors of Aldborough and
neighboring Ellenthorpe to his new son-in-law. Why this was done (was
Elizabeth his last surviving child?) is not known. Elizabeth
Aldeburgh Wentworth had four children after her marriage, so
definitely could not have been born at the family's 1612 Visitation,
as Foster's pedigree suggests. But as Foster includes the marriage of
Elizabeth's eldest brother Richard Aldeburgh (1607-1649) to Alice
Mallory, which took place at Ripon on 22 November 1627, the
information for that generation must have been gathered from a later
source, and Elizabeth was likely born several years after her
brothers, probably as late as 1625 or so. Whether or not male-line
descendants of Richard Aldeburgh and Joan Mauleverer continued on into
the 18th century after the estates passed out of the family is not
known, nor could I even find a death date for Arthur Aldeburgh (born
1585). There is hope, though, that a conclusion can be drawn on this
family someday. In his 1893 article on the Wentworths of Wolley,
George Edward Wentworth mentions that several old books belonging to
the Aldeburghs were still preserved at Wolley, among them an old Bible
with a pedigree of the Aldeburghs, which hopefully would have some
information on the 17th century family members.

Joan Beaufort, Countess of Westmorland (c.1379-1440), had a daughter
(A1):

A1) Elizabeth Ferrers, Lady Greystoke (1393-1434), who had
A2) Anne Greystoke (d. 1477) m. 1433 Sir Ralph Bigod of Settrington
(1410-1461), and had
A3) Anne Bigod (d. 1531) m. William Conyers of Sockburn (d. 1490), and
had
A4) Anne Conyers (d. before 1522) m. c.1492 Sir William Mauleverer of
Wothersome (d. 1551), and had
A5) James Mauleverer of Wothersome (by 1495-1524) m. 1510 Anne
Wycliffe, and had
A6) Jane Mauleverer (c.1511-aft. 1551) m. 1)c.1524 Richard Aldeburgh
of Aldborough, Yorks. (d. 1536), and had
A7) Richard Aldeburgh of Aldborough (1533-1613) m. 1)c.1555 Eleanor
Goldesborough, and had
A8) William Aldeburgh of Aldborough (1557-1628) m. 1)1580 Anne Kaye
(d. 1595), and had
A9) Arthur Aldeburgh of Aldborough (1585-aft.1653) m. Elizabeth
Holland, and had
A10) Richard Aldeburgh of Aldborough (1607-1649), M.P. 1640-44

This series on descendants of Edward III is fascinating and
informative. Many thanks.

I think it is more likely that the William Aldeburgh joined with
Arthur Aldeburgh in various property transactions during the
Commonwealth was his grandson, rather than his brother: see A2A for
the following document:

Reference: DD/4P/28/1 (Portland of Wlebeck papers, Notts RO)
Dated: 12 Dec. 1651; scope and content: Indenture, feoffment.

1) Michael Gilbert, clerk of Aldburgh; Rich. Sutton, sen., yeo. of
Aldburgh; Edward Thompson, yeo. of Aldburgh; Chas. Catton of
Burrowbrig (Yorks), yeo.

2) Wm. Hutton of Aldburgh, yeo., and wife Anne.

Reciting purchase for £508 by (1) from Arthur Aldburgh of Ellingthorpe
(Yorks), esq., and grandson William Aldburgh of premises in
Aldborough, of which part for (2) who paid a proportion, now (1) to
(2) ½ a. arable in West Field on Skelbars Flatt and ½ a. arable in
Sowersike Field on Hessells Flatt. 4d. Quitrent to A.A. and Wm. A.

Given the grandson's role in this transaction, it is likely that he
was the son and heir of Richard (d 1649).

Best wishes, Michael

And I would wager this is William the grandson, together with his
uncle John Wentworth, in a suit over the estate of William Aldeburgh
(b 1588) - which would suggest Arthur was dead by then:

PROCAT: C 10/52/132: dated 1656:

Nathaniel Lukins and Thomas Holden v William Aldbrough, John
Wentworth, Joseph Atkinson, Richard Lodge and William Lowther:
personal estate of William Aldbrough, deceased, of Aldbrough,
Yorkshire. Answer

Perhaps it is also he mentioned in this item on A2A:

Carte Papers, Bodleian Library: MS Carte 42, f 29, dated 16 March
1661:

The King to the Lords Justices of Ireland: written from Whitehall:
William Aldburgh, esquire, to be Captain, during pleasure, of the
first Company of Foot that shall become void in Ireland, next after
such persons as have already obtained letters or orders to like
purpose.

If so, then possibly later details of this family should be sought in
Ireland.

Dear Michael,

Many thanks for the entry above, and for the A2A one in your other
post! If you're correct and Arthur was dead by the above 1656
Chancery suit, then the Chancery suit below can allow us to pinpoint
Arthur's date of death as 1655/56:

C10/32/17 James Brooke v Arthur Aldbrough, Sir John Mallory knight,
Henry Darley, Richard Darley, Edmund Jennings and others: messuage etc
called Ellingthorpe. 1655

Perhaps it is also he mentioned in this item on A2A:

I agree that the above document pertains to William Aldeburgh,
grandson of Arthur Aldeburgh. In his 1646 will, William Mallory
mentions a grandson named Arthur Aldeburgh, so Richard Aldeburgh
(1607-1649) the M.P. definitely did have issue with his wife Alice
Mallory. Since there seems a good chance that descendants of theirs
existed for at least a couple generations, Alice Mallory's 4 descents
from Joan Beaufort are given below.

(A1, C1 & D1)

and had
B4) Sir Ralph Eure of Witton (d. 1539) m. 1) 1482 Muriel Hastings (d.
by 1515), and had
B5) William Eure, 1st Lord Eure (c.1483-1548) m. Elizabeth Willoughby,
and had
B6) Sir Ralph Eure (1508-1545) m. Margery Bowes (descendant of Edward
III but not thru Joan Beaufort), and had
B7) William Eure, 2nd Lord Eure (1529-1594) m. 1548 Margaret Dymoke
(see C7 below), and had
B8) Anne Eure (by 1552-1627) m. c.1575 Sir John Mallory of Studley,
Yorks. (1554-1619/20), and had

(see D9 below), and had
B10) Alice Mallory (1609-16--) m. 1627 Richard Aldeburgh of Aldborough
(see A10 above)

C1) Mary Ferrers, Lady Neville of Oversley (1394-1458), who had
C2) John Neville of Oversley (d. 1482), who had
C3) Joan Neville m. Sir William Gascoigne of Gawthorpe, Yorks. (d.
