About Anne Lewis, Lady Beauchamp

Biography

Extracted from https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Sackville-11 on 23 November 2022 and then edited.

Anne Sackville was the daughter of Robert Sackville, 2nd Earl of Dorset,[1] [2] and his first wife, Margaret, the daughter of Thomas Howard, 4th duke of Norfolk.[3] [4]

There is no direct evidence of Anne's date of birth, however, her parents's marriage licence was dated 4 February 1580, and her mother Margaret died on 19 August 1591, so she was born between those dates.[3]

Anne was the sister of:

Richard, Earl of Dorset;[2]

Marriages

Anne married:

1. Edward Seymour, esq, the son of Edward Lord Beauchamp eldest son of Edward, Earl of Hertford, at Westminster on 1 July James I [1609].[2] He died on 20 January 17 James I [1620] at Great Bedwyn, according to his grandfather's Inquisition post mortem,[5] however, Anne's sister-in-law, Lady Anne Clifford says in her diary that Anne Seymour, their daughter, died five months after her father, and another version says 2 months,[6] and the inscription on the coffin of the child Ann Semer says "1618".[7] On the death of Edward's father in 1612, her husband became heir presumptive to his grandfather, the Earl of Hertford and became known by the honorific title of Lord Beauchamp. Anne apparently continued to use her 'title' Lady Beauchamp for the rest of her life. Anne and Edward had children:

  • 1. Anne Semer, an inscription on a very small child's coffin cased close in lead the shape of a body in the Sackville vault at Withyam, Sussex, says "Ann Semer, 1618";[7] Her death was recorded in the diary of Anne Clifford, wife of Anne's brother Richard Sackville:[8]
    • The 29th in the morning died my sister Beauchamp’s daughter Mrs Anne Seymour in the same house her father died five months before. The child was opened, it having a corrupt body, so it was put in lead and the day following Legge brought it to Knole which day was my birthday I, being now 29 years old. February 1619 ( ]1619 or 1619/20?)
    • The lst carried my Lord Beauchamp’s child from Knole where it had stood in his chamber to Withyham where it was buried in the vault so that now there was an end of the issue of that marriage which was concluded presently after mine.

2. After the death of her first husband, on 7 October 1622, Anne married Sir Edward Lewis of Edington Priory (Wiltshire) and The Van[1] or Vane, Glamorgan.[4]

Together they had several children of which 5 were living at the time of his death, 10 October 1630:[4]

  1. Ann Lewis was born in Edington, Wiltshire, England. Married John Tregonwall, member of parliament. No children.
  2. Edward Lewis, born about 1623, first son, succeeded to the estates. He seems to have died before 1648, when William Lewis was the owner of the Van.
  3. William Lewis, member of parliament, second son, born circa 1625, married Margaret, the daughter and heir of Lawrence Banastre of Boarstall, Buckinghamshire on 24 June 1649;[1] [9]
  4. Richard Lewis, member of parliament, born circa 1627, died 1 October 1706, in his 83rd year, buried at Corsham, succeeded his nephew, Edward Lewis, in his Glamorgan estate in 1674, married Mary, the daughter and heir of Giles James of Sherston, Wiltshire;[1]

Some sources say there was a third or fifth son Robert, but he must have been younger than Richard and at most about two years old when his father died in 1630. There are no certain records of him thereafter.

Death

Anne outlived her second husband by thirty years. She commissioned a magnificent tomb for him and eventually herself at Edington Priory. The Inscription on the tomb reads:[4]

Here lye the Bodyes of the Right Worshipful Sir Edward Lewis late of the Vane in the County of Glamorgan Knight one of the Gentlemen of the Privy Chamber to Prince Henry and after to King Charles: and of the Right Hon’ble Anne Lady Beauchampe, His Wife, the Widow of Edward Lord Beauchampe Daughter of Robert Earle of Dorset, by the Lady Margaret Howard, Sole Daughter of Thomas Duke of Norfolk.

Research Notes

According to the History of the Lower Shenandoah Valley Counties of Frederick, Berkeley, Jefferson and Clarke edited by Norris, J R C Lewis, born 1834 in the county of Clarke, was a descendant of Kydnor Lewis of Wales and his wife, Wentson, the daughter of Lord of Miskin, then twelve generation later, Sir Edmond Lewis of Van. of Edington, County Wiltz, knighted by King James I of England in 1603, died 1630, with a tomb at Edington, married Lady Ann, daughter of Earl of Dorset, widow of Robert Jacob Beauchamp, and they had four sons including Robert, styled the Emigrant, born in 1607, migrated in 1635, settled in Gloucester county, Virginia, and married Isabella Warner.[11] Gloucester County was created in 1651 from York County.[12]

Jorge H Castelli's Tudorplace says Anne Sackville, born in 1586 at Brecon, Wales, married Edward Seymour at St Bride's London, and married her second husband, Sir Edward Lewis, the son of Sir Edward Lewis and his wife, Blanche Morgan, on 7 October 1622, and had a third husband, Sir Henry Glenham, son of Sir Thomas Glenham and Amy Parker, with whom Anne had two sons and three daughters.[13] However, this is not correct, as William Robinson, The History and Antiquities of the Parish of Tottenham, (G.S. Coventry: Tottenham, 1818), 52, digital images, Google Books (https://books.google.com : accessed 10 January 2016).

The Dictionary of Welsh Biography says Sir Edward Lewis (1560-1628), eldest son of Thomas Lewis, knighted in 1603, was sheriff of Glamorgan in 1601 and 1612, died 9 January 1628. Sir Edward Lewis (died 1630) the second, also knighted in 1603, was lessee of Edington, Wiltshire, where he lived, and was Gentleman of the Privy Chamber to prince Henry, 1610, and to prince Charles, died 10 October 1630 at Edington. William Lewis succeeded Sir Edward Lewis the second, married Margaret heiress of Brill and Boarstal, and died in 1661, after which Edward Lewis, born 30 July 1650, died 1674, left the Glamorgan estate to his uncle Richard Lewis in tail male. Richard Lewis born 1623, died 1706, purchased the manor of Corsham, died 7 October 1706. Thomas, son of Richard, last Lewis of Van, born before 1668, member of Parliament for many years, died at Soberton, Hants, 22 November 1736, leaving an only daughter, Elizabeth, who married Other Windsor, third earl of Plymouth of the first creation.[14]

  • Lewis was head of a very old, but thoroughly Anglicized Glamorgan family, distinguished chiefly for prudent marriages, but not previously aspiring to a seat in Parliament. His father, a courtier, married the widow of the 1st Earl of Hertfords heir, and bought the remainder of a long lease of Edington in 1629, dying there in the following year. Lewiss mother was careful to preserve neutrality in the Civil War, sending her eldest sons abroad lest their uncles, the Marquess of Hertford and the 4th Earl of Dorset, should engage them in the royalist cause. The Glamorgan committee testified in 1648 that Lewis was well-affected and had made large contributions to their funds; but it was probably a paternal uncle of the same name who sat with them throughout the Interregnum. Lewismarriage to a Buckinghamshire heiress enabled him to buy an estate at Bletchington in 1656 for £10,000. He probably owed his election for Devizes, ten miles from Edington, to his mother, whose lavish hospitality at the Priory was notable chiefly for her excellent brew of beer. As she also secured the return for Westbury of another son, it is impossible to distinguish his record in the Convention, but he was clearly inactive. Lord Wharton seems to have regarded him as a moderate Anglican. One or other of the brothers was appointed to the committees for altering the entail on Lord Hertfords estates, attainting Oliver Cromwell, and considering the petition of a former serjeant-at-arms; but they made no speeches. He lost his seat at the general election, and died later in the same year. His widow brought Bletchington and other lands worth in all 38,000 to her second husband, the 5th Duke of Richmond; but on her death in 1667 the Boarstall estate went to her son Edward Lewis.2
