the Bayntons - NOT exactly NOBODY...
............................................................
(quote)
In between
1529 and
1629 alone,
in four
successive
generations,
the head of
the family
was elected
for the
Shire and
during that
century,
there were
only five
Parliaments
in which
no Bayntun
sat - three
of them
during
the reign
of Mary
when this
strongly
Protestant
family
was under
a cloud.
The status of the Bayntun family did not diminish over the years and
documents show the name changing by degrees over several centuries
possibly as a result of phonetic interpretations
Spelling variations of the name include Bayntun, Baynton, Bainton, de
Beinton and to a lesser extent Bainten. The name is toponymic from the
following locations: a Yorkshire village called Bainton - which lies
at the foot of the Yorkshire Wolds; a parish in Northampton; a parish
in Oxfordshire; a tything in the parish of Edgrington, Wiltshire, also
found in Northumberland.
The story of the Bayntuns and their descendants begins at the time of
Henry II and spans more than 850 years. The family were of an ancient
race and were very well respected in their native Wiltshire. They
accumulated a tremendous amount of wealth through many judicious
marriages in medieval times and during the reign of Henry VIII they
increased their wealth by acquiring a great deal of monastic land.
Their exploits for and against the monarchy are recorded in history
and they established themselves as one of the leading landowners in
the county over successive centuries.
The first of this line was Sir Henry Bayntun, Knight Marshall of the
Household to King Henry II before 1189 and descends through a direct
line in each generation to the last of the male heirs - John Bayntun
(1688 - 1716) - the 19th in lineal descent from Sir Henry.
John died in 1716 without a son and heir and subsequently his sister,
Ann, became the first Bayntun heiress. She was married at the time to
Edward Rolt of Sacombe Park. 100 years later the Starky family
inherited through similar circumstances when Sir Andrew Bayntun Rolt
had no legitimate son and heir and his daughter, Maria Barbara, was
named his heiress.
Thus we see the name changing from Bayntun to Bayntun Rolt and Bayntun
Starky respectfully. The descendants of the Bayntun Starky family are
now living at Brackenfield, New Zealand where the remaining family's
inheritance is housed in a private museum, however little information
is freely available.
Algernon Sidney (1622-1683), in his Treatise on Government (written
about 1680), chose the Bayntuns among those families that are now
called commoners who in antiquity and eminence are in no way inferior
to the chiefs of the titular nobility and if the tenures of their
estates be considered, they have the same and as ancient as any of
those that go under the name of Dukes or Marquess.
The status of the Bayntun family did not diminish over the years and
documents show the name changing by degrees over several centuries
possibly as a result of phonetic interpretations from de Beinton, de
Baynton, Benton, Bainton, Baynton to Bayntun
In earlier years the "de" in the middle of a name would refer to the
place of origin of that family. A typical example is that of Margaret
de Grimstede. The Grimstede (now spelt Grimstead) which is in the
parish of Downton, very close to Faulston.
The "de" usually applied to gentry - so de Baynton would be a place
called Baynton. But what came first, the family that lived in a place
and were named after it, or the family who built or influenced a
village and had it named after them?
Documents and Court Rolls prove the earlier part of this pedigree were
known as de Benton, and Baynton during the Tudor period. However in
later centuries the spelling of the name changed to Bayntun and this
is clearly evident in the memorials erected in the Beauchamp Chapel in
the Church of St. Nicholas, Bromham.
The spelling changes happened frequently, as the writer would write as
it sounded, phonetically. This carried on until Samuel Johnson
produced the first Dictionary in 1755, thus standardising the English
language.
The Bayntun family set the record in the parliamentary history and
knighthood of Wiltshire. In their preminence they yielded the
Knighthood of the Shire with some regularity and were also well placed
for Borough seats.
In between 1529 and 1629 alone, in four successive generations, the
head of the family was elected for the Shire and during that century,
there were only five Parliaments in which no Bayntun sat - three of
them during the reign of Mary when this strongly Protestant family was
under a cloud.
As well as Members of Parliament they had four Knights of the Shire
and 18 as Burgesses.

Then there was the Quiney family, one of whom married William's
daughter Judith. They were fiercely Catholic and Adrian Quiney's son
Richard was a close friend of William, who became godfather to
Richard's child.
The Quineys also married into the Sadler family - John Sadler owned
the Bear Inn, which was eventually sold to the Nash family, also
Catholic and who also married into the Shakespeare family. The host of
the Bear Inn, Thomas Barber, was a Catholic too.
As early as 1578 when a levy was made in Stratford partly to enforce
anti-Catholic measures, John Shakespeare refused to pay, as did George
Badger together with Thomas Reynolds and Thomas Nash, also Catholics
and both fathers of two of William's school friends.

In the following bit of information I have finally convinced myself of
the following: John Wheate of Prince George Co.,Maryland is somehow
directly related too William Wheate of Glymton,Coventry,Stratfford,
and of London.
The family know William Shakespear and were related indirectly to
him.
William Wheate of London had shares in the "Virginia Company" of
London. William Barker(Capt.), Richard Quiney, John Sadler, and their
Associates& Company played a big part in transporting, colonizing, and
development of Prince George Co.,Maryland.
The in-law names of the Wheate's of Glympton,Martin, Quiney,Kempe, and
Barnaby were also in the big picture. Weather these individuals are
the same family remains to be seem, but the last names are definite.
Capt Martin's original land grants became know, even to this day, as
"Brandon Plantation". The historical 1600's church "Merchants Hope"
was names after the ship "Merchants Hope" which was only one of the
ships of Capt. William Barker that brought passengers to Maryland. I
think you can see were this leads so I'll end with one final but
interesting note. For those who missed my old note about Mosses Wheat
of Mass:
Mosses Wheate signed the original charter for the founding of then
Cambridge, now Harvard College in 163?. Look at one of the details I
have listed below:
John SADLER was brother-in-law of John HARVARD (founder of Harvard
College), and his sister married Richard QUINEY, whose brother was
married to William SHAKESPEARE's daughter, Judith.

The Queeney/Quiney family can be traced back to the beginning of the
sixteenth century in Stratford-upon-Avon, where they were closely
associated, by friendship and by marriage, with William Shakespeare
and his family. The earliest known representative of this family was
Adrian Queeney, who married Katherine Sheldon, daughter of Ralph
Sheldon. Adrian died before 1534.
Richard Queeney, son of Adrian and Katherine, was born in Stratford-
upon-Avon circa 1500-1502 was buried there June 28, 1567. The name of
his wife is unknown. His son, Adrian (born 1531) served as constable,
chamberlain, alderman, bailiff, and finally head alderman of Stratford-
upon-Avon. In his forth-coming book Burgins Back to Devon, Ramond
Burgin writes:
"One biographer says that Adrian was a good friend of John Shakespeare
(Williams's father) for nearly 50 years. In her classic biography
Shakespeare of London Machette Chute says:
'The Shakespeares and the Queeneys had known each other since
the days when old Richard Queeney had been an acquaintance of Richard
Shakespeare (William's grandfather) of Snitterfield (a town just north
of Stratford) and when John Shakespeare came to live on Henley Street
(in Stratford) Adrian Queeney was one of his close neighbors. It was
together they paid a fine of twelvepence in 1552 for having an
unauthorized muckheap near their houses.'"
Sutton Queeney's father is not proven, but Christos Christou, Jr., (co-
author of Vol. 4, Colonial Families of the Eastern Shore of Maryland)
and Ramond Burgin strongly feel that he was William Queeney, son of
Richard Queeney, Jr. a personal friend of William Shakespeare.
Richard Jr. named his son Thomas to have land in Virginia. Christou
found a migration for William and Richard Queeney, but couldn't find
that Thomas had emigrated to Va. to claim his land.
The son Thomas actually married Judith Shakespeare in 1616. Judith was
the daughter of "The Immortal Bard" William Shakespeare. They named
their first child Shakespeare Queeney - - forever joining the two
families.
