Biography

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Barnes-867

"Griselda Barnes (Barne/Barneis/Berners) was the daughter of William Barnes of Fryerning and Thoby, Essex (by 1533-July 14, 1559) and Elizabeth Eden. Her parents married in 1556. Her father's will, dated July 7, 1559, entrusted the care of his sister, Elizabeth, to his neighbor, Lady Petre of Ingatestone Hall (see ANNE BROWNE) and Sir William Petre subsequently acquired the wardships of both Griselda and her brother Thomas. She was treated as if she were their daughter and one account even lists a Griselda as one of their children.

She married Thomas Baker (1540-1616), a younger son of Richard Baker of Sissinghurst, Kent.

They had a son, Richard (1570-September 7, 1604)."[1]

Her father William was a member of parliament.[2]
