• Gresham of Titsey, Surrey

    From Will Johnson@21:1/5 to All on Mon Aug 23 10:03:42 2021
    William Gresham 1522-1579 had at least three sons by his wife Beatrix Guybon

    the second son William inherited Titsey but had an only daughter Elizabeth who died unmarried

    the third son Thomas was heir-male of his elder brother William, he married Mary Lennard and their eldest son John *eventually* inherited Titsey but when??

    I find Thomas and Mary having children at Limpsfield Surrey from 1593 to 1600 (this last named Leonard for his mother's maiden name)

    We know that Thomas Gresham and Mary Lennard's third son Thomas was enrolled at Queen's College
    third son; entered Queen's College 1 Jul 1608 "aet 15"

    So he has to be born 1592/1593

    His two elder brothers we know were John and then Edward

    I believe I have located his baptismal record now

    Thomas Gressame (sic)
    bap St Giles without Cripplegate, London, England, United Kingdom 25 May 1592 father Thomas Gressame (sic)
    batch C02243-2

    In the same batch we see
    Edwarde Gressam
    24 Jun 1589

    so then John, wherever he was baptised has to be exactly in 1588 as we have them married in Aug on 1587
