Edmund Yarburgh's son and heir was Sir Nicholas Yarburgh, who, by 1642, was a knight and a supporter of King Charles I. Sir Nicholas had married Faith Dawnay at St Saviour's, York on 26th May 1635; she was the daughter of John Dawnay, who was in turn the son of Sir Thomas Dawnay of Cowick. Sir Nicholas and Faith moved from Balne Hall to Snaith sometime between 1647 and 1649.

After the king's defeat, Sir Nicholas paid a fine of £600 to parliament in order to enable him to keep his property. He died in 1655. Faith died on 24th September 1657 and was described in the Snaith registers as 'of Snaith Hall, that good lady, one of a thousand'. After her death, the inventory of the hall included books in the library (£10), the clock in the hall (£2), and all the plate (16lbs troy weight, £61 17s).

Nicholas and Faith Yarburgh’s children were Thomas (the heir, b. 19th August 1637 at Snaith Hall), Nicholas, Richard, John (died 1645), John, Edmund, Christopher, Elizabeth, and Faith. Their grandmother, Sarah Yarburgh, survived their parents.

Sir Thomas Yarburgh inherited from his grandmother all the property in Snaith, and also received from her 'a silver salt cellar, 12 silver spoons with knopps, a gilt tun, with a cover, and 2 broad wyne bowles'.
