  • In 1458 the respective sons of these three daughters, viz. John Bonville, John Powlett, and Thomas Kingestone, made a division of the property by Indenture Tripartite. In this division John Bonville took (with other manors and lands) the reversion, after the deaths of Godfrey Hylton and Alianora his wife, widow of Sir Hugh Poynings, of the Manor and advowson of Chawton and the free Chapel there, the patronage of the Priory of Selborne, and all lands in Chawton subject to an annual payment of L3 5s. 10d. out of Chawton to Thomas Kingestone.
  • We have now brought down the succession of owners to John Bonville, who died in 1494, leaving only daughters. The Manor and advowson of Chawton went in the first instance to the elder of these, Florence, who married (i) Sir Humphrey Fulford and (2) Lord Fitzwarren, and who presented to Chawton Rectory in 1514 ; on her death the whole of the Bonville possessions passed to her sister Elizabeth, wife of Lord La Warr, with whom the long list of medieval owners of Chawton comes to an end.
