Jane was also harassing his workers and her son Richard, having the same evil disposition as his mother, beat a priest, and grievously wounded and beat his keeper.

Notes: about 1620, she and her sister Elizabeth purchased, and lived in Benvill Par (in the parish of Corscombe) in a remote corner of Dorset where they could have the services of a priest. In 1626 soldiers in training at Evershot who raided the property in search of a seminary priest were arrested by the local magistrate Sir John Strode.
George Wareham of Benvill was an agent for the supply of English nuns to convents in Flanders, and in 1626 (or soon after) he was trying to persuade Winifred and Elizabeth Brereton to join a convent. Winifred "escaped" by marrying George Arundell, third and youngest son of John Arundell of Chideock (a Catholic family). Elizabeth was taken to a convent in Bruges, where she remained at least eighteen years, and probably all her life.

Notes: George Wareham of Benvill was an agent for the supply of English nuns to convents in Flanders, and in 1626 he was trying to persuade Winifred
and Elizabeth Brereton to join a convent. Elizabeth was taken to a convent in Bruges, where she remained at least eighteen years, and probably all her life. Elizabeth was professed a nun on 4 Oct 1626 at St. Monica's in Louvain, Brabant (now Belgium), and on 11 Oct, she was one of the second group of 5 nuns sent to found "The English Convent" (Priory of Our Lady of Nazareth) in Bruges, Flanders (now Belgium). After Elizabeth became a nun, George Wareham, and his brother John, claimed all her property (worth about 1000 Pounds), saying that she had made it over to them "in consideration of services rendered". Her sister Winifred, and her husband George Arundell, brought a suit in Chancery against them. The estate of Benville Park became divided, with the Arundells holding half and the Wareham's the other half. Sister Elizabeth died in Bruges in 1646.Father: Thomas BRERETON (Sir)
