- From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Cave ____________
- The Cave, later Cave-Browne, later Cave-Browne-Cave Baronetcy, of Stanford in the County of Northampton, is a title in the Baronetage of England.
- It was created on 30 June 1641 for Thomas Cave, a Royalist who fought in the English Civil War. Granted lands in South and North Cave in Yorkshire by William the Conqueror, by the fifteenth century the Caves had moved to Stanford on the boundary of Northamptonshire and Leicestershire to become "a wealthy and powerful clan, foremost among the new men of the age, the nouveaux riches, the shrewd, rapacious, grasping gentry raised up by the Tudor dynasty".[1] Sir Thomas's aunt Eleanor was married to the diplomat Sir Thomas Roe; his great-grandmother, Margaret, was a sister of William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley, Queen Elizabeth I's Lord High Treasurer; and her husband Roger's uncle Sir Ambrose Cave was Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster under Elizabeth.
- Sir Thomas Cave's son, the second Baronet, was Member of Parliament for Coventry. His son, the third Baronet, was Member of Parliament for Leicestershire. He married the Hon. Margaret, daughter of John Verney, 1st Viscount Fermanagh, and a descendant of Edmund Braye, 1st Baron Braye. Their elder son, the fourth Baronet, died unmarried in 1734 and the baronetcy devolved on his younger brother, who also sat as Member of Parliament for Leicestershire. His elder son, the sixth Baronet, was a Fellow of the Royal Society and High Sheriff of Leicestershire. His son, the seventh Baronet, sat briefly as Member of Parliament for Leicestershire but died childless at an early age. His sister Sarah Otway, the sixth Baronet's only daughter, then inherited the family seat of Stanford Hall, Leicestershire, and in 1839 became the third Baroness Braye when the abeyance of the barony of Braye was terminated in her favour (see the Baron Braye for further history of this branch of the family). The seventh Baronet was succeeded by his uncle, the eighth Baronet. He was an unmarried clergyman and on his death in 1810 the line of the third Baronet failed.
- The late Baronet was succeeded by his second cousin, William Cave-Browne, the ninth Baronet. He was the son of John Cave-Browne (who in 1752 had assumed the additional surname of Browne by Act of Parliament), son of Roger Cave, eldest son of the second marriage of the second Baronet, by his wife Catherine, daughter of William Browne of Stretton en le Field in Derbyshire. In 1839 the ninth Baronet's assumption of the additional surname of Cave was confirmed by royal licence. He was succeeded by his son, the tenth Baronet. He was High Sheriff of Derbyshire in 1844. His son, the eleventh Baronet, was a Deputy Lieutenant and Justice of the Peace for Derbyshire. He was succeeded by his second but only surviving son, the twelfth Baronet. He was initially a soldier and fought in the Boxer Rebellion and First World War, but was later ordained. He died childless and was succeeded by his first cousin, the eldest surviving son of the thirteen children of Ambrose Syned Cave-Browne-Cave, younger son of the tenth Baronet. A Captain in the Royal Navy who had served at the bombardment of Alexandria in 1882,[2] the thirteenth Baronet was childless and was succeeded by his younger brother, the fourteenth Baronet. He died in 1943 without surviving male issue and was succeeded by his nephew, the fifteenth Baronet. He was the son of Edward Lambert Cave-Browne-Cave, the fifth son of the aforementioned Ambrose Syned Cave-Browne-Cave. The title is now held by the fifteenth Baronet's grandson, the seventeenth Baronet, who succeeded his father, the sixteenth Baronet, upon the latter's death in 2011.[3]

- Cave’s ancestors had resided at Stanford, on the borders of Leicestershire and Northamptonshire, as tenants of Selby Abbey in the 15th century. They purchased the freehold on the dissolution of the monasteries; but they were not a regular parliamentary family, although a younger son, Sir Ambrose Cave, sat for Leicestershire and Warwickshire and became chancellor of the duchy under Elizabeth. Cave’s father was created a baronet on the eve of the Civil War; it was alleged that he had acted as commissioner of array and furnished the King with horses, arms and money, but, although the estate was under sequestration for a time, there are no records of compounding.3
- Cave was given the baronetcy fee of his brother-in-law, Orlando Bridgeman, in 1673, and sued out a pardon for homicide in 1677; the circumstances are unknown. With Bridgeman’s help he and the local Tory Sir Thomas Norton defeated the Whig John Stratford at Coventry in 1685. He was moderately active in James II’s Parliament, being appointed to the committees for expiring laws, a naturalization bill, and the bill for the suppression of simony. He was removed from local office in 1687, and during the Revolution joined Princess Anne’s escort at Nottingham. He was re-elected to the Convention, and voted to agree with the Lords that the throne was not vacant. An inactive Member, he was named to the committee of elections and privileges, and to those to inquire into the authors and advisers of grievances, to prepare a bill for the abolition of hearth-tax, and to consider the toleration bill. In the second session he was appointed only to the committee to examine the state of the revenue. He is not known to have stood again. He died on 11 Oct. 1703, and was buried at Stanford. His son, the third baronet, sat for Leicestershire as a Tory from 1711 till his death in 1719.4

- Sir Orlando Bridgeman, 2nd Baronet (27 April 1678 – 5 December 1746)[1] was a British baronet and Whig politician.
- He was the oldest son of Sir Orlando Bridgeman, 1st Baronet and his wife Mary Cave, daughter of Sir Thomas Cave, 1st Baronet.[2] His sister Penelope was married to Thomas Newport, 1st Baron Torrington.[2] Bridgeman was educated at Rugby School in Warwickshire and went then to Trinity College, Oxford, where he matriculated in 1694.[3] He succeeded his father as baronet on the latter's death in 1701.[4]
- Bridgeman entered the British House of Commons following the Acts of Union in 1707, sitting as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Coventry in the first Parliament of Great Britain until 1710.[5] Five years later, he stood for Calne until 1722.[6] Bridgeman represented Lostwithiel from a by-election in 1724 until the general election of 1727,[7] when he was also successful for Blechingley, for which he chose to sit until 1734.[8] He was afterwards returned to the House for Dunwich, a seat he held for the next four years.[9]
- In 1716, Bridgeman was appointed Auditor General to George, Prince of Wales, serving until the latter's accession to the throne in 1727.[4] He then joined the Board of Trade as a commissioner, an office he held until 1738.[3]
- On 15 April 1702, he married Susanna Dashwood, daughter of Sir Francis Dashwood, 1st Baronet, and had by her three sons and two daughters.[3]
- Bridgeman had built a new house at Bowood Park in Wiltshire, so that he got deeply into debt and the Chancery Courts started with proceedings against him in 1737.[10]
- In 1737, Bridgeman was nominated Governor of Barbados, but disappeared before sailing.[11] He left farewell letters to his family and to the king.[4] On 10 June 1738, a body was found drowned in the Thames near Limehouse and because it had been disfigured by the water, the body was falsely identified as Bridgeman's.[12]
- His principal creditor Richard Long acquired ownership of the estate after a Chancery Decree in his favour in 1739.[10] The diary of John Perceval, 1st Earl of Egmont says the following:[13]
- Sir Orlando Bridgeman who, instead of going to his government of Barbados conferred on his last winter, made his escape (as he hoped) from the world, to avoid his creditors, by pretending to make himself away, and accordingly gave it out that he had drowned himself, was ferreted out of his hole by the reward advertised for whoever should discover him, and seized in an inn at Slough, where he had ever since concealed himself.
- Bridgeman was found in an inn at Slough in October 1738 and was imprisoned.[3] He died at the gaol of Gloucester on 5 December 1746, aged 68, and was buried in St Nicholas' Church, Gloucester.[3]
- Although his oldest son Francis is sometimes considered to have succeeded to the baronetcy, he in fact predeceased his father in 1740 and the title became extinct with Bridgeman's death.[3]
