- DENHAM, John (by 1530-56 or later), of Cossington, Som.
- b. by 1530. m. by Oct. 1551, Grace, da. of William Brent of Cossington, 2s.1
- John Denham was probably a cadet of the prolific Devon family. He was a poor man dependent on the generosity of his brother-in-law Richard Brent, with whom he and his wife were living in 1551 ‘abiding as one of the household ... for that they were destitute of a dwelling house’. Brent was mentally unstable and to the distress of Denham and his wife, Brent’s only sister, he ‘conceived a great malice and displeasure’ against them, possibly because they disagreed with the careless management of his inheritance. In 1552 Brent was found to be an idiot by a commission headed by Charles, 8th Baron Stourton, to whose sister Dorothy he was married, and two years later the rights of Denham, his wife and two sons in the Brent patrimony were safeguarded. Denham is perhaps identifiable with the ‘Mr. Denham’ known to have been Stourton’s secretary in 1551.2
- Denham doubtless owed his election at Shaftesbury to his connexion with Stourton, who was lord lieutenant of Wiltshire, Somerset and Dorset. He used his time in London to promote his own affairs: while Parliament was in session he filed a suit in the court of requests to determine the validity of a lease made by Brent after being declared insane, and not long after its dissolution he secured the remainder on Brent’s estates to himself and his heirs. The problems arising out of Brent’s property were not resolved by one visit to London, and Denham was involved in several chancery cases later in Mary’s reign. No trace of him has been found after the execution of Stourton for the murder of William Hartgill. Denham was not to benefit from the claim to the Brent estate which he had so vigorously prosecuted, for Brent’s only daughter survived and on her marriage to Lord Thomas Paulet she took the lands to him.3

- Sir William Stourton, Lord of the Manor of Stourton, Co. Wilts., son and heir of Sir John Stourton, of Preston, Co. Somerset, and of Stourton, Co. Wilts., by Catherine, his wife, daughter of Henry, Lord Beaumont, confirmed by Hoare's copy of the College of Arms pedigree and by Edmondson. Collins placed him as eldest son of Sir John Stourton, by his second wife, Jane, daughter of Ralph, Lord Basset. Harleian MS. 1074 shewed him as eldest son of John Stourton without giving his mother's name. John Stourton, of Preston, senior, described himself in his will as brother of William Stourton, son and heir of John Stourton, sometime Lord of Stourton. In the inscription to Edith Stourton's memory she is called "Editha Soror' Will'i Storton." He appears to have been one of her trustees of the Manor of Ashmore, Co. Dorset. Sir William Dugdale started his pedigree of the Stourton family with this Sir William Stourton, stating that the family was of great antiquity in Wiltshire, taking its denomination from the town of Stourton, and it from the river Stoure, on the bank whereof it was situated.
- He had a remainder in his father's Preston Pluckenet property in tail, contingent on failure of issue of his father by Alice, his wife.

Essex, with the advowson of the church there, in his demesne as of fee, as being settled to him and his heirs for ever, and being so seised, he had granted that Lordship, Manor and Advowson to Elizabeth, his daughter, then wife of Sir William Stourton, to hold of the said Elizabeth and the heirs of her body lawfully issuing by her husband, William Stourton, and that on the 20th May, 21 Richard II., a license had been obtained from the King confirming the said grant, and the Inquisition proved that John Stourton was son and next heir of the said Elizabeth by Sir William Stourton. .... etc.

The fact that in this entry John Stourton is called "Junior," supports our contention that John Stourton, of Preston and Brimpton, his uncle, described himself as "Senior" to distinguish himself from his nephew, John, 1st Lord Stourton.(*) .... etc. William, 2nd Lord Stourton, presented on the 29th of March, 1477, but his son, John, 3rd Lord Stourton (called by Newcourt a knight only), never presented. Of him, Newcourt stated that he, "dying about 1484, leaving Katherine, his widow, who, afterwards, marrying with John Brereton, Esq., together, with him, presented to the same in 1486," which was on the 21st July, 1486, when "John Brereton, Ar', and Dom' Katherina Sturton. uxor sua ratione custodise Franc', Dom' Sturton," by "virtue of the guardianship of Francis, (4th) Lord Stourton, his (Sir John, 3rd Lord Stourton's) son and heir (by the said Katherine, Lady Stourton), who dying in his minority, or, at least, without issue, Sir William, afterwards (5th) L[ord] Stourton, his (Sir John, 3rd Lord Stourton's) brother, became his heir," who, "whilst a kt. granted the advowson hereof, for two Turns, to the Abby of Titley near adjoyning, by virtue whereof, John Fan, and others, presented two of the Abbots thereof successively thereto, A. 1504(23rd Dec.) and 1520 (5th Dec.)," when, after a lapse, whereupon the Bishop of London presented 18th July, 1531, we find William, 7th Lord Stourton, presented, as the last of his family, 1st August, 1536, for he disposed of the Manor and Advowson by sale to Sir Ralph Warren, Alderman and Lord Mayor of London in 1536 and 1543.(+)

- Lord Stourton married Elizabeth, daughter of Edmund Dudley, Esquire, one of the Privy Council to King Henry VII.(*) Elizabeth Dudley(t) was half-sister of John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland.(+) The contention that Lord Stourton married a second wife in the person of Agnes Ryse, the daughter of the Countess of Bridgewater, seems untenable, and is disputed by the actual facts. Nevertheless, the marriage is said to have taken place January 6th, 1545-46. Lord Stourton, in leaving her a legacy under his Will (as will be seen later), describes her, however, as "Mrs.
- https://archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/313/mode/1up
- Pg.313
- Agnes Ryse, dau. of the Countess of Bridgewater."(*) Lady Stourton was then (in 1548, when the will was made) living, and, in fact, survived Lord Stourton, not dying until 1560. Agnes Ryce (or Ryse) sued Lord Stourton's son in her maiden name after the death of Lord Stourton, and continued to so use it in all the proceedings. It has been stated, however, that, as "Agnes Stourton," widow, she administered to the will of William, 7th Lord Stourton, in July, 1557. It will, however, be shortly seen from the will itself that probate was granted of this same will on two occasions, viz., November 25th, 1548, immediately following upon the death of William, 7th Lord Stourton, and again on July 15th, 1557, after the execution and attainder of Charles, 8th Lord Stourton. Anne (not Agnes) Stourton, named in the later act of probate, was the widow of Charles, Lord Stourton, not of his predecessor. When Agnes Ryse married Sir Edward Baynton after Lord Stourton's death, she married him in her maiden name. The assertion in Collins's " Peerage " (taken from the Gentleman's Magazine) that she married Lord Stourton is certainly not proved by the evidence he brought forward to substantiate his contention. The allegation in the deed of 9th October, 1573, of Richard Gore, who had married Mary, daughter of Agnes Ryse, is hardly evidence admissible in law. There was nothing to prevent Richard Gore describing his wife Mary as a daughter of William, Lord Stourton, by Agnes Ryse, his wife. And although under the deed he appointed (nearly thirty years afterwards) Richard Askew as his lawful attorney, to enter on the lands of Lord Stourton and take possession for Mary Gore as the alleged daughter and sole heir of the 7th Lord, it is known that this had no effect. This Mary was the only issue of Lord Stourton and Agnes Ryse, and it is worthy of note that, in a pedigree recorded in the College of Arms (I., ix., p. 83), in which she appears as the wife of Richard Gore, no suggestion of bastardy is made, though her legitimacy is almost impossible. Charles, 8th Lord Stourton, moreover, undoubtedly succeeded his father as son and heir, inheriting the Peerage and all Lord Stourton's estates. The mere fact that the Court of Probate granted the 8th Lord Stourton Letters of Administration, with his father's will annexed, would seem to be prima facie evidence that Lord Stourton must have been the "natural and lawful son" of the testator. When Charles, Lord Stourton, sued Agnes Ryse, witnesses tried, but failed in the attempt, to prove that she was the legal wife of Lord Stourton. In the Inquisition Post Mortem of William, 7th Lord Stourton, Sir Charles Stourton, Knight (afterwards 8th Lord Stourton), was found to be the next heir. This was a complete answer in support of the validity of
- https://archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/314/mode/1up

- the marriage with Elizabeth Dudley, and it also disproves completely Mary Gore's claim of heirship by blood. By Elizabeth Dudley, his wife, William, 7th Lord Stourton, had issue :
- I. — The Right Honourable Charles, 8th Lord Stourton, of whom hereafter.
- II. — Andrew Stourton, who died unmarried and without issue. The Privy Council wrote from Westminster on 11th March, 1550, to Lord Stourton, that he might well enough help his brother Andrew with money towards his return into England without the offence of the King's Majesty, notwithstanding the offence of the said Andrew being then pardoned by His Majesty upon the said Andrew's submission.
