- William Stourton, 7th Baron Stourton (c. 1505 – 1548) was the eldest son of Edward Stourton, 6th Baron Stourton, and his wife Agnes Fauntleroy, daughter of John Fauntleroy of Dorest.
- He succeeded his father as Baron Stourton in 1535. His wife was Elizabeth Dudley, daughter of Edmund Dudley. They had seven sons and two daughters, including Ursula who married Edward Clinton, 1st Earl of Lincoln.
- His affair with Agnes Rice, daughter of Rhys ap Gruffyd and grand-daughter of Thomas Howard, 2nd Duke of Norfolk, caused much comment. He moved in with Agnes, living apart from his wife in their later years. At his death he left much of the Stourton estates to Agnes, resulting in years of litigation between her and his son Charles, who had quarreled bitterly with his father, calling him a "false hypocrite". He and Agnes had one daughter, also called Agnes.
- He was a Member of the Parliament of England for Somerset in 1529, although he admitted to finding the office a burden, as he was then managing the family estates in place of his aged father; he asked that both of them be excused from further attendance. He seems to have been more skilled as a military commander than as a politician: he played a part in suppressing the Pilgrimage of Grace, and saw military action in Scotland, and later in France, where he spent much of his last years, serving with distinction as the English Deputy at Newhaven.[1]
- He was succeeded as Baron Stourton by his eldest son Charles, who was executed for murder nine years later in 1557.

She was the sister of Thomas Poynings, 1st Baron Poynings (d.1545), Edward Poynings (d.1546), and Sir Adrian Poynings. After the death of the 8th Baron Clinton in 1517, Jane Poynings married, as his second wife, Sir Robert Wingfield (d.1539).[2][3][4][5]
- Clinton succeeded his father in 1517 as 9th Baron Clinton. He joined the retinue of King Henry VIII at Boulogne and Calais in 1532. He attended the Parliament of 1536 and later served in the Royal Navy against French and Scottish naval forces from 1544 to 1547. He was knighted in Edinburgh by Edward Seymour, 1st Earl of Hertford for his role in the capture of that city in 1544. He also took part in the Siege of Boulogne in September 1544. Under John Dudley, Viscount Lisle he saw action against the French at the Battle of Spearhead in 1545 and was sent as one of the peace commissioners to France the following year. He commanded the English fleet during the invasion of Scotland by Edward Seymour and provided naval artillery support at the Battle of Pinkie on 15 September 1547.
- Appointed Governor of Boulogne in 1547, he successfully defended the city against a French siege from 1549 to 1550.

He was a Privy Counsellor from 1550 to 1553, and briefly served as an envoy to France in 1551.

Following his appointment as Lord General of the expedition of William Herbert, 1st Earl of Pembroke, he fought with Spanish forces at the Battle of Saint-Quentin on 10 August 1557.
- Upon his return to England, Clinton took command of the English fleet and raided the French coast and in 1558 burnt the town of Conquet and the surrounding area. He was a joint commander with Ambrose Dudley, 3rd Earl of Warwick of a large army during the Northern Rebellion, however the army was still being assembled when the rebellion was defeated in January 1570. He was created Earl of Lincoln in 1572, and served as ambassador to France, during which time he undertook several commissions from Queen Elizabeth I until his death in London on 16 January 1585.

- Sir William Stourton, Lord of the Manor of Stourton, Co. Wilts., son and heir of Sir John Stourton, of Preston, Co. Somerset, and of Stourton, Co. Wilts., by Catherine, his wife, daughter of Henry, Lord Beaumont, confirmed by Hoare's copy of the College of Arms pedigree and by Edmondson. Collins placed him as eldest son of Sir John Stourton, by his second wife, Jane, daughter of Ralph, Lord Basset. Harleian MS. 1074 shewed him as eldest son of John Stourton without giving his mother's name. John Stourton, of Preston, senior, described himself in his will as brother of William Stourton, son and heir of John Stourton, sometime Lord of Stourton. In the inscription to Edith Stourton's memory she is called "Editha Soror' Will'i Storton." He appears to have been one of her trustees of the Manor of Ashmore, Co. Dorset. Sir William Dugdale started his pedigree of the Stourton family with this Sir William Stourton, stating that the family was of great antiquity in Wiltshire, taking its denomination from the town of Stourton, and it from the river Stoure, on the bank whereof it was situated.
- He had a remainder in his father's Preston Pluckenet property in tail, contingent on failure of issue of his father by Alice, his wife.

Testa de Nevile stated in effect that the Manor of Owre Moyne was held by Ralph Moyne, of the Lord the King, by serjeanty of his kitchen, as his ancestors had done from the time of Henry I., and also by serjeanty of purveying that which belonged to the kitchen of the Lord the King(t).

Essex, that Sir John Moigne, knight, had been seised of the Manor of Estanes ad Montem, Co. Essex, with the advowson of the church there, in his demesne as of fee, as being settled to him and his heirs for ever, and being so seised, he had granted that Lordship, Manor and Advowson to Elizabeth, his daughter, then wife of Sir William Stourton, to hold of the said Elizabeth and the heirs of her body lawfully issuing by her husband, William Stourton, and that on the 20th May, 21 Richard II., a license had been obtained from the King confirming the said grant, and the Inquisition proved that John Stourton was son and next heir of the said Elizabeth by Sir William Stourton. .... etc.

The fact that in this entry John Stourton is called "Junior," supports our contention that John Stourton, of Preston and Brimpton, his uncle, described himself as "Senior" to distinguish himself from his nephew, John, 1st Lord Stourton.(*) .... etc. William, 2nd Lord Stourton, presented on the 29th of March, 1477, but his son, John, 3rd Lord Stourton (called by Newcourt a knight only), never presented. Of him, Newcourt stated that he, "dying about 1484, leaving Katherine, his widow, who, afterwards, marrying with John Brereton, Esq., together, with him, presented to the same in 1486," which was on the 21st July, 1486, when "John Brereton, Ar', and Dom' Katherina Sturton. uxor sua ratione custodise Franc', Dom' Sturton," by "virtue of the guardianship of Francis, (4th) Lord Stourton, his (Sir John, 3rd Lord Stourton's) son and heir (by the said Katherine, Lady Stourton), who dying in his minority, or, at least, without issue, Sir William, afterwards (5th) L[ord] Stourton, his (Sir John, 3rd Lord Stourton's) brother, became his heir," who, "whilst a kt. granted the advowson hereof, for two Turns, to the Abby of Titley near adjoyning, by virtue whereof, John Fan, and others, presented two of the Abbots thereof successively thereto, A. 1504(23rd Dec.) and 1520 (5th Dec.)," when, after a lapse, whereupon the Bishop of London presented 18th July, 1531, we find William, 7th Lord Stourton, presented, as the last of his family, 1st August, 1536, for he disposed of the Manor and Advowson by sale to Sir Ralph Warren, Alderman and Lord Mayor of London in 1536 and 1543.(+)

- Lord Stourton married (secondly) Thomasine, daughter of Sir Walter Wrottesley, knight, who adhered to the Earl of Warwick, the King Maker, and was proclaimed a traitor in 1470, when a price was set on his head. He escaped with Warwick to Calais(*). Sir Walter Wrottesley was Lord of Perton 9 Edward IV., was buried in the Grey Friars Church, now Christ Church, London, in 1471. He came of an ancient family long seated at Wrottesley, co.

Berks, one of the Tellers of the Court of Exchequer temp. Henry VI. and Edward IV.

- The exact date of the death of this Lord Stourton is stated to be February 17th in the various Inquisitions taken after his death. His will was proved in March, 1523. He left no issue whatever and consequently his lands and honours passed to his brother Edward, who thereupon succeeded as 6th Lord Stourton.

- Edward, 6th Lord Stourton married Agnes, daughter of John Fauntleroy, of Marsh, near Sherborne, Co. Dorset, by Joane, his wife, daughter and co-heir of John Walsh of Purbeck in that county. On the 2nd January, 21 Henry VIII., Lord and Lady Stourton granted the Manor and Advowson of Upcerne, and lands, tenements and hereditaments there, with one moiety of Melbury-Osmund, to their son, Roger Stourton and Joan, his wife, and the heirs male of Roger Stourton, under the yearly rent of L20, payable to the grantors during their respective lives ; and Lord and Lady Stourton released the reversion in the same premises to Roger Stourton and his heirs on 1st January. 26 Henry VIII(*). ....

- Lord Stourton died on the 13th of December, 27th of Henry VIII., and William Stourton was found to be his son and next heir, then aged 30 years and more, and he accordingly succeeded. Lord Stourton, as will be seen from the foregoing copy of his will, bequeathed his body to be buried in the north aisle of St. Peter's Church at Stourton, in which church a tomb was raised showing the sepulchral effigies of Lord and Lady Stourton, on which were impaled the respective arms of Stourton and Fauntleroy, the accompanying illustration of the figures on the tomb being reproduced from the work of Sir Richard Colt Hoare. Lord Stourton, by his wife, Agnes (Fauntleroy), Lady Stourton, had issue : .... etc.

- The Right Honourable William, seventh Baron and Lord Stourton, of Stourton, Co. Wilts, in the Peerage of England, and of Stourton House, in Tothill Fields, Westminster,(*) was Knighted the 1st of November, 1523, and was Deputy-General of Newhaven and the Marches adjacent in France. He was by birth the second, but was the eldest surviving son and heir of Edward, 6th Lord Stourton, by Agnes (Fauntleroy), Lady Stourton, his wife. .... etc.

- Lord Stourton married Elizabeth, daughter of Edmund Dudley, Esquire, one of the Privy Council to King Henry VII.(*) Elizabeth Dudley(t) was half-sister of John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland.(+) The contention that Lord Stourton married a second wife in the person of Agnes Ryse, the daughter of the Countess of Bridgewater, seems untenable, and is disputed by the actual facts. Nevertheless, the marriage is said to have taken place January 6th, 1545-46. Lord Stourton, in leaving her a legacy under his Will (as will be seen later), describes her, however, as "Mrs.
- https://archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/313/mode/1up
- Pg.313
- Agnes Ryse, dau. of the Countess of Bridgewater."(*) Lady Stourton was then (in 1548, when the will was made) living, and, in fact, survived Lord Stourton, not dying until 1560. Agnes Ryce (or Ryse) sued Lord Stourton's son in her maiden name after the death of Lord Stourton, and continued to so use it in all the proceedings. It has been stated, however, that, as "Agnes Stourton," widow, she administered to the will of William, 7th Lord Stourton, in July, 1557. It will, however, be shortly seen from the will itself that probate was granted of this same will on two occasions, viz., November 25th, 1548, immediately following upon the death of William, 7th Lord Stourton, and again on July 15th, 1557, after the execution and attainder of Charles, 8th Lord Stourton. Anne (not Agnes) Stourton, named in the later act of probate, was the widow of Charles, Lord Stourton, not of his predecessor. When Agnes Ryse married Sir Edward Baynton after Lord Stourton's death, she married him in her maiden name. The assertion in Collins's " Peerage " (taken from the Gentleman's Magazine) that she married Lord Stourton is certainly not proved by the evidence he brought forward to substantiate his contention. The allegation in the deed of 9th October, 1573, of Richard Gore, who had married Mary, daughter of Agnes Ryse, is hardly evidence admissible in law. There was nothing to prevent Richard Gore describing his wife Mary as a daughter of William, Lord Stourton, by Agnes Ryse, his wife. And although under the deed he appointed (nearly thirty years afterwards) Richard Askew as his lawful attorney, to enter on the lands of Lord Stourton and take possession for Mary Gore as the alleged daughter and sole heir of the 7th Lord, it is known that this had no effect. This Mary was the only issue of Lord Stourton and Agnes Ryse, and it is worthy of note that, in a pedigree recorded in the College of Arms (I., ix., p. 83), in which she appears as the wife of Richard Gore, no suggestion of bastardy is made, though her legitimacy is almost impossible. Charles, 8th Lord Stourton, moreover, undoubtedly succeeded his father as son and heir, inheriting the Peerage and all Lord Stourton's estates. The mere fact that the Court of Probate granted the 8th Lord Stourton Letters of Administration, with his father's will annexed, would seem to be prima facie evidence that Lord Stourton must have been the "natural and lawful son" of the testator. When Charles, Lord Stourton, sued Agnes Ryse, witnesses tried, but failed in the attempt, to prove that she was the legal wife of Lord Stourton. In the Inquisition Post Mortem of William, 7th Lord Stourton, Sir Charles Stourton, Knight (afterwards 8th Lord Stourton), was found to be the next heir. This was a complete answer in support of the validity of
- https://archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/314/mode/1up

- the marriage with Elizabeth Dudley, and it also disproves completely Mary Gore's claim of heirship by blood. By Elizabeth Dudley, his wife, William, 7th Lord Stourton, had issue :
- I. — The Right Honourable Charles, 8th Lord Stourton, of whom hereafter.
- II. — Andrew Stourton, who died unmarried and without issue. The Privy Council wrote from Westminster on 11th March, 1550, to Lord Stourton, that he might well enough help his brother Andrew with money towards his return into England without the offence of the King's Majesty, notwithstanding the offence of the said Andrew being then pardoned by His Majesty upon the said Andrew's submission.
- III. — Arthur Stourton, of Moyne, Co. Dorset, was Master of the King's Jewels, was M.P. for Westminster, 1555, and one of the keepers of the Palace at Westminster. .... etc.

Lord High Admiral of England, who died 16th January, 1585, and was buried under a stately monument in St. George's Chapel, Windsor. On the 17th July, 1550, he had a licence to go into Lincolnshire "and because he desired the companie of the Lord Stourton therefore licence was given him also for his absence for xl days. Ursula Clinton was ancestor by her husband, the Earl of Lincoln, of the Dukes of Newcastle-under-Lyme, and died in 1551.

Charles, Lord Stourton, being dead before the completion of the Administration, Letters of Administration de Bonis non were granted on the 15th of July, 1557, to Anne, Lady Stourton, widow of Charles, Lord Stourton, deceased, (Wrastley 24). .... etc.

- The Right Honourable Charles, eighth Baron and Lord Stourton, of Stourton, Co. Wilts, in the Peerage of England, was the eldest son and heir of William, 7th Lord Stourton, by his wife Elizabeth Dudley, and succeeded his father at the death of the latter 16th September, 1548. According to the inquisition taken after the death of his father he was then aged 24 years and more, but according to the Particulars of Liveries he was aged 30 years when his father died. He must consequently have been born between 1518 and 1524, .... etc.
- His father dealt with giving him in marriage when he was quite an infant, viz., 4th April (1528), 19 Henry VIII. Under an indenture quoted at length later, William Stourton, Knight (his father), son and heir apparent of Edward, Lord Stourton (his grandfather), agreed with Walter Hungerford, Esquire of the Body to the King (son and heir of Sir Edward Hungerford, deceased), for the marriage of Charles, or failing him of Andrew, (the first and second sons of the said Sir William Stourton), with one of the three daughters (Elynn, Mary or Anne) of the said Walter(*). Neither of these marriages however, ever took place or were further proceeded with, and Charles, Lord Stourton, eventually married by license (granted 10th February, 1548) Anne, daughter of Edward Stanley (t), third Earl of Derby, K.G., K.B., Viscount Kynton, Lord Stanley and Strange, Lord of Knokyn, Mohun, Bassett, Burnal and Lacy, Lord of Man and the Isles, by Dorothy his first wife, daughter of Thomas (Howard) second Duke of .... etc.
