Biography The Belasyses, long established in county Durham and Yorkshire, were of little account until after the Reformation, when they acquired Newborough and a 5,000 acre estate to the south-east of Thirsk. Belasyse’s father was the first MP in the family, being returned for Thirsk in 1586, and Thomas himself sat for the borough in 1597. In February 1601 Belasyse was prosecuted for having been married by a Catholic priest, which perhaps explains his failure to be returned at the next two elections, even that of 1604, when his father was sheriff of Yorkshire. While his younger son, John, later claimed that he had ‘newly converted to the Catholic faith’ in 1615, this seems unlikely, as he was returned for Thirsk once again in 1614; he left no trace upon the records of the session.10

Re-elected for Thirsk in 1621, Belasyse moved for his brother-in-law Sir Richard Cholmley* to be allowed parliamentary privilege (2 Mar.) and, as a wool producer, he opposed Sir Thomas Wentworth’s* attempt to continue the exemption of the Halifax clothiers from the 1555 Wool Act, on the grounds that the statute had ‘grown out of use’ (5 March). He had, however, signed Wentworth’s return as knight of the shire, and on 23 Mar. it was presumably in the latter’s interest that he moved to consider the punishment of the high constables who had become scapegoats for the dubious practices employed during the election. He was named to a single committee, to renew the 1610 Act concerning moor burning in the north (26 May).11 During the autumn sitting, he made only one recorded speech, on 1 Dec., when he seconded William Mallory’s attempt to raise the government’s arrest of Sir Edwin Sandys* as a grievance, moving that Sandys should be asked the reason for his committal. This was one of the issues which incurred King James’s wrath in his letter to the Speaker two days later, and Belasyse was sufficiently interested in the ensuing privilege dispute to buy a printed copy of the resulting correspondence between king and Commons, published shortly after the end of the session.12 He later acquired a fair copy of the parliamentary diary of this session kept by Richard Dyott*, (which has often been referred to as though Belasyse himself was its author), and separates of key parliamentary speeches from the later 1620s.13

Belasyse was returned once more for Thirsk in 1624, when he played a more active role in the central debate about a breach with Spain. At the end of the debate of 1 Mar. about whether to end negotiations for a Spanish Match, he considered ‘that it is sufficiently disputed of and that more consultation is needless’, agreeing with Sir Robert Phelips’s motion to confer with the Lords about a joint statement. However, he clearly harboured doubts about the potential cost of a war. Four days later, when Sir Edwin Sandys tabled a declaration promising to finance any conflict arising from a breach with Spain, Belasyse warned that it was ‘not fit to think of a war before we know what kind of war’. In the subsidy debate of 19 Mar., angered by proposals from the lawyers Sir John Walter and John Glanville for a grant of four subsidies, he reminded the House that ‘subsidies come in not as easily as fees; that two, that spoke before, did soar [to] too high a pitch’. Urging ‘care of the poorer sort and how it may be had’, he proposed a mere two subsidies.14 Nor was he happy about the Benevolence raised after the dissolution of the 1621 session: he and his father had apparently failed to pay part of their £100 quota for this levy; and on 27 May 1624 he argued that the Commons’ grievances should include a complaint about Benevolences, which had been outlawed by statute in 1484. A heated debate ensued over this potentially explosive issue, but it was dropped on the pretext that ‘it came so late into the House’.15

Besides the question of war finance, Belasyse was generally more active in the Commons in 1624 than he had been in his previous parliaments. At the second reading of the bill for sheriffs’ accounts on 8 Mar., he called for examination of patents for old debts, and moved for sheriffs’ liability to be limited to seven years, explaining, perhaps with reference to his father, ‘that he knoweth one that was sheriff above twenty years since was lately troubled (his under-sheriff being dead), notwithstanding his quietus est, for some things concerning his shrievalty’. On 27 Apr., when Sir Thomas Savile named lord president Scrope as a recusant officeholder, Belasyse, related to Scrope through his mother, insisted ‘that within these two years, Lord Scrope and all his family received [communion]’. On 3 Apr. he tabled a fresh draft of the moor-burning bill, which had failed to reach the statute book in 1621, although this was rejected at its third reading, following attacks from Wentworth and William Noye.16

In August 1624 Belasyse inherited an estate worth £4,000 a year. He may have felt that a small borough such as Thirsk did not reflect his new status, for at the general election of 1625 the seat passed to his eldest son, Henry. Belasyse kept a low political profile during the ascendancy of Sir John Savile*, but the latter doubtless supported his creation as Lord Fauconberg in May 1627 in order to win his support for the Forced Loan. Nevertheless, Belasyse was prepared to allow his son Henry to join with Wentworth to contest the shire election of 1628, in opposition to the Saviles. This alliance was quickly forgotten after Wentworth’s appointment as president of the Council in the North, perhaps because of the latter’s policy of maximizing the yield from recusancy compositions. Fauconberg and his eldest son publicly snubbed Wentworth at York, and thereby landed themselves in serious trouble with the Privy Council.17

Tensions with Wentworth meant that Belasyse was a late convert to the royalist cause, but in the summer of 1642 he paid for the recruitment of the regiment commanded by his son John†. He fled to France after Marston Moor, returning shortly after the regicide in 1649, when he compounded for just over £5,000. Two-thirds of his estate was then sequestrated for recusancy until his death on 18 Apr. 1653. The chief beneficiary of his will, written shortly after his return from France, was his second son, now Lord Belasyse, but several servants were assigned £100 ‘to be disposed of by them accordingly as I have directed and declared my mind to them’, a phrase which may have concealed Catholic bequests.18 His descendants sat in the Lords until the early nineteenth century.

From the English Wikipedia page for Thomas Belasyse:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Belasyse,_1st_Viscount_Fauconberg

Thomas Belasyse, 1st Baron & Viscount Fauconberg, 2nd Baronet (1577–1653),[1] was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1597 and 1624 and was raised to the peerage in 1627. He was a supporter of the Royalist cause in the English Civil War.

Before the Civil War, Belasyse and his family had a long running confrontation with William Wentworth, a close advisor to King Charles I, primarily over local government issues in Yorkshire. This confrontation did not shake Belasyse's support for the monarchy and before and during the Civil War, he and his son Henry, were ardent supporters of the Royalist cause. Charles honoured Belasye in appreciation, but towards the end of the First Civil War, Belasye was forced to flee abroad. While he was in exile his estates were sequestered by Parliament because he was a known "delinquent", and on his return to England and as he refused to swear to the oath of abjuration he convicted of recusancy.

Biography

Belasyse was educated at Jesus College, Cambridge in the early 1590s.[2] He had Roman Catholic leanings, and married into a known recusant family, but stayed within the laws of the time and attended Anglican Church services.

He entered Parliament in 1597 when he was elected to represent Thirsk, a seat his father had held, in the second from last Elizabethan parliament. He was knighted by James I and served as a justice of the peace in the North Riding. He remained active in national politics and represented Thirsk again in the 1614, 1621, and 1624 parliaments of James I.[3]

During the early years of the reign of Charles I the Belasyse family sided with Sir John Savile, the custos rotulorum of the West Riding, against Sir Thomas Wentworth. The Savile's allied themselves with the Duke of Buckingham and it may have been through this political connection that on 25 May 1627 that Belasyse was raised to the peerage as Lord Fauconberg of Yarm.[3][4]

After the assassination of Buckingham, Wentworth's influence at court grew and with it his power, while that of his political opponents Yorkshire waned. After Wentworths's appointment as president of the council of the north in 1628, Fauconberg and his son Henry were briefly imprisoned and they opposed the style of government that Wentworth's influence at court helped to foster.[3]

With the impeachment and execution of Wentworth, now 1st Earl of Strafford, in 1641 Fauconberg political fortunes waxed. Like many of the gentry and nobility with Roman Catholic leanings he supported Charles I in his struggle with Parliament.

During the summer of 1642, in the months before the war started while Charles resided in York, Fauconberg and his sons Henry and John were prominent supporters. His elder son Henry a Knight of the Shire signed a treaty of neutrality with Thomas Fairfax, (but its terms were rejected by Parliament) and John his other son commanded a regiment of Foot. Fauconberg's loyalty to Charles was rewarded on 31 January 1643 he was granted the title of Viscount Fauconberg of Henknowle, county Durham (his second son, John, was made Baron Belasys of Worlaby in 1645).[3][4]

Fauconberg supported William Cavendish, Marquis of Newcastle, followed the fortunes of that nobleman in the siege of York, which held out three months against powerful Scottish and Parliamentary armies. When the Royalists garrison of York and a relieving army under the command of Prince Rupert lost the Battle of Marston Moor on 2 July 1644, Newcastle and Fauconberg escaped into exile, embarking at Scarborough, for Hamburg.

While he was abroad his estates were sequestered for his delinquency, which he compounded by paying a fine of £5012 18s. He returned to the North Riding in 1649 but refused to swear the Oath of Abjuration and was convicted of recusancy. He died on 18 April 1653, and was buried in the parish church of Coxwold, in the county of York.[3][4]

Family

Fauconberg married Barbara Cholmley (d. 28 February 1619), the daughter of Sir Henry Cholmley of Roxby in Whitby Strand, a family noted for its recusancy.

His eldest son Henry predeceased him in 1647, his eldest son, Thomas, Fauconberg's grandson, inherited the title. Unlike his grandfather and father Thomas supported the Parliamentary cause, and later married Mary, a daughter of Oliver Cromwell.[4]

Fauconberg's second son John was raised to the peerage by Charles II as Baron Savile of Pontefract.[4]

From the English Wikipedia page for Newburgh Priory:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newburgh_Priory

Newburgh Priory is a large house near Coxwold, North Yorkshire, England. Standing on the site of an Augustinian priory, founded in 1145, it is a stately home in a rural setting with views to the Kilburn White Horse in the distance. The grounds contain a water garden, walled garden, topiary yews and woodland walks.

The house was the country seat for the Belassis family in the 16th and 17th century. Originally an Augustinian Priory from 1145 providing priests for the surrounding churches in return for gifts of land and money from the rich landowners. It is reputed to be the burial place of Oliver Cromwell[1] whose remains were said to have been taken to Newburgh Priory by his daughter Mary when she married the 2nd Viscount.

Newburgh belonged formerly to the Earls of Fauconberg is presently the home of Sir George and Lady Wombwell who open the Priory to visitors for guided tours from April to June.[1] It is home to the Magic Loungeabout music festival.

History

The Augustinian priory was founded on lands originally granted by William the Conqueror to Robert de Mowbray. Robert's son, Roger de Mowbray, established the Priory in 1145. Little is known of the Priory from its founding until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1538 by Henry VIII, except that Margaret Tudor stayed a night there on 17 August 1503 as a guest of the Prior during her progress to meet her husband James IV of Scotland.[2]

Since 1538, Newburgh has been in the ownership of the Bellasis family. Anthony de Bellasis, a royal chaplain, purchased the priory from Henry VIII for £1,062. Anthony, with his brother Richard, had been responsible for the dissolution of not only Newburgh, but also eight other monasteries in the north of England.

His nephew Sir William Bellasis converted Newburgh into a private residence in 1546. Having converted the Priory, he set the scene for Newburgh as it is today and, except for the alterations and building work carried out between 1720–1760, the Priory remains much the same as it was during the Tudor period.

The Priory remained in the possession of the Bellasis family, who took the title of Fauconberg when created Barons in 1627 (and Viscounts in 1642) until 1825. On the death, in 1802, of the second Earl of Fauconberg the earldom became extinct and Newburgh was left to Lady Charlotte his eldest daughter who married Thomas Wynn, who assumed the name of Wynn Bellasis.

On her death, in 1825 without male heir, the estate passed to the son of her sister, Lady Anne, who married Sir George Wombwell, 2nd Baronet in 1791. Their son, George, the future 3rd Baronet,inherited Newburgh Priory and its estates. The Wombwell Baronetcy was conferred on George Wombwell, 1st Baronet, an extensive merchant and director, in 1778. He became Chairman of the Honourable East India Company and was MP for Huntingdon from 1774 to 1780.

Newburgh is still lived in, and cared for, by the present Baronet and his wife, Sir George and Lady Wombwell.[1]

Thomas Belasyse, 1st Viscount Fauconberg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

J

Thomas Belasyse, 1st Baron and 1st Viscount Fauconberg, 2nd Baronet (1577–1653),[1] was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1597 and 1624 and was raised to the peerage in 1627. He was an ardent supporter of the Royalist cause in the English Civil War.

Fauconberg married Barbara Cholmley (c. 1575 – 28 February 1619), the daughter of Sir Henry Cholmley of Roxby in Whitby Strand, a family noted for its recusancy. She was a matrilineal descendant of Cecily Neville, Duchess of York, and the mitochondrial DNA descent through which the remains of Richard III of England were identified in 2013 passes through her and their daughter The Hon. Barbara Belasyse (1609/1610 – 1641), who married in 1631 Sir Henry Slingsby of Scriven, 1st Baronet.[5] His eldest son Henry predeceased him in 1647, his eldest son, Thomas, Fauconberg's grandson, inherited the title. Unlike his grandfather and father Thomas supported the Parliamentary cause, and later married Mary, a daughter of Oliver Cromwell.[4] Fauconberg's second son John was raised to the peerage by Charles II as Baron Belasyse.[
