John Windham

He shortened the spelling of the name from 'Wymondham' to 'Wyndham.

JOHN WYMONDHAM - He died about 1450 while a resident of Crownthorpe. He bought Crownthorpe and Trusbutt's Manors in the late 1430's from William Halys and his wife Margery, of Welles, and sometime after 1443, he bought Wicklewode from Alexander Mason (History of Norfolk - Blomefield - Vol. 1 - page 434). These places became the seat of the Wyndham family for generations and their origin is lost in antiquity. As early as 1254, they were both taxed in Norwich taxation (Norfolk Archaeology - Vol. 17 - Page 113). Wicklewode appears to have belonged to Gilbert Malet in 1190 (Norfolk Families - Rye - Vol. 1 _ Page 517). In 1446, when the grandson of the John married Margaret Howard, these estates were settled upon them and their issue for life (History of Norfolk - Blomefield - Vol. 2 - Page 401-466). John Wymondham married Margaret Segrave, the daughter of Sir John Segrave.
