• Sir William Hilton
• Birth: 1492 Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, England
• Death: 1537 Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, England
• Sir William Hilton, Baron of Hilton, who entailed his estates, 18 Henry VIII., and died before 1537. By Sybill Lumley, his wife, granddau. of George, Lord Lumley, he had a dau., Anne, m. to Sir Ralph Hedworth, Knt. of Harraton, and two sons, Thomas and William. The elder, Sir Thomas Hilton, Knt., Baron of Hilton, was captain of Tynmouth Castle under Philip and Mary. He had no fewer than four wives, and yet he died issueless. His brother and heir, William, previously of Biddic, appears to have been a sad contrast to the virtuous race from which he sprang, if we may credit the strange story told by Dr. Bulleyn, a learned physician in the reigns of Edward VI., Mary, and Elizabeth. The doctor seems to have enjoyed the largest practice of his time, in the city of Durham, and to have stood high in the favour of the deceased Baron of Hilton; but no sooner was the fact of that gentleman's death known, than the new inheritor, "Mr. William Hilton, of Biddic," charged Bulleyn with the murder of his brother, and had him arraigned before the Duke of Norfolk. The doctor, however, was honourably acquitted; but still the Baron of Hilton ceased not from persecuting him: he basely "hired ruffians to assassinate the hapless physician;" and when that scheme miscarried, had him thrown into prison for debt. In one of his works, Bulleyn disclaims, con amove, against the crying sin of ingratitude, which, "malgre high titles, long pedigrees, and numerous quarterings," he assumes to be "a most sable escutcheon, even in the fairest field;"
