Charles Bostock (b1569)

Apparently not much was gathered and documented on Arthur's younger brother Charles (b1569)at St. Wilfrid, Davenham, Cheshire; married Mary Saunders in London in 1600 at St. Helen's. Bishopgate, London In 1625 Charles worked as the: "Master of Scrivener's Co. at St. Bartholomew's of London"; and lists him as a "Master Worshipful" and son of Robert.

Mary Saunders was the daughter of Sir Thomas Saunders; KNIGHT and Sherriff of Surrey 1553; and member of parliament for Lewes in 1534. This is the obvious MAIN reason for Charles to migrate to the county Surrey; 200 miles away from his ancestors lands in Cheshire.. Read more about "Sir Thomas Saunders of Agmondesham" above.

His son Charles was baptized at St. Bartholomew Exchange in London in 1606. He attended Oxford University in 1627, Cambridge University in 1631; MA at Oxford in 1634, and received his MD in 1640. Also studied at Leyden in the Netherlands in 1639. He was a Licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians (LRCP) in London in 1643. His pedigree was given in the Herald's Visitation of London 1634.

It would be another thirty years before Charles's (b 1569): grandson: Charles (b 1642) left for America in 1671 and settled in New Kent, VA; .Later migrated to Onslow/Duplin County, NC in 1673. .

1614. Charles Bostock was assigned as one of the Wardens of the "Cinque Ports" were the Kings peace keeper and the tax collector for the South Eastern counties of Kent, Sussex, Hastings, Romney, Hythe, Dover, and Sandwich.. (This is the SECOND main reason for Charles to migrate to Surrey)
Because of Charle's marriage to Mary Saunders of Surrey; our branch of the Bostock family of Cheshire is linked to Surrey , and in the 15th century upon Charles appointment as Warden.

Explanation for the confusion about the location of "St Martin's in the fields":

Knowing that Charles Bostock and Mary Saunders were married at St. Helen's Bishopgate London in 1660, and after examining the records of St. Helen's, I am led to several ANCIENT parishs in London that merged with St. Helen's: St Martins Outwich which once stood at the junction of Bishopgate and Threadneedle Street, London. It was demolished in 1874 and eighteen of St. Martin's monuments were transfered to St.Helen's Bishopgate. As time passed, five other churches were merged with St. Helen's (which holds the Tomb of Sir John Spencer) : St. Andrew Undershaft, St. Mary Axe (which holds the crumbling tomb of Juilus Caesar), and St. Ethelburga; all merged and became part of St Helen's Bishopgate.(mss 7493)

Lord William Bostock , Knight (b 1210) in Cheshire; married Elizabeth Audley (b 1225 at St. Martins Parish).

Their great grandson: Lord William Bostock, Knight (b1315) of Cheshire; married Joan Matilda "Alice" Winnington of Moulton (b1300) of St. Martin Parish

Their son: Sir Adam Bostock (b 1330) in Cheshire; married Margaret Wettenhall (b 1330) of St. Martin Parish.

Their son: Lord Adam Bostock (b 1363) in Cheshire; married Jonet Bradshaw of St. Martin Parish.

Their descendent: Lord Adam Bostock (b 1412) married Elizabeth Venables born abt. 1415 at St. Martin Parish.

William's (b 1450) second wife Elyanor "Ellen" Bostock is the mother of our ancestor George Bostock (b 1485/90); married Emma Holt , daughter of Sir Edward Holt of Wimboldsley. Sir Edward Holt married Jane Bostock at St. Martin's. Jane was the daughter of Adam Bostock (b 1412).

George and Emma's son Robert Bostock (b. 1525) married Emme Brumfield (1535) of St. Martin Parrish .

Through out my fifteen years of research, I have discovered that many Englishman marry the sole heirs of other prominent Englishman. They inherit their wife's property and sometimes the BARONY title of their wife's father. This was done for several reasons: if the family name was near extinction and to acquire the title and estate of the sole heiress.. For example: Thomas Audley became Thomas Stanley; John Legh was the eldest son of William Venables Edmund Audley became Edmund Touchet, and Robert Davenport became Robert Lawton. One of Richard Bostock's sons did the same thing. He changed his name from Charles Bostock to Charles Rich;. upon his marriage to the sole heir of Sir Robert Rich; Mary Frances Rich.
