Acceded: Wolf Hall, Wiltshire, England

Died: 21 Dec 1536

Notes: High Sheriff of Somerset. Embarked on a love affair with his daughter-in-law, Catherine Fillol. When it was discovered, the marriage was annulled, their children declared bastards, since their legal grandfather might be their biological father, and Catherine was imprisoned in a local convent. The scandal damaged the Seymour family's reputation for many years afterward. A proposed marriage between Jane Seymour and William Dormer was rejected by the Dormers partially due to the scandal and because of the family's less-than-noble pedigree.

Children:

1. Mary SEYMOUR


Mary SEYMOUR

Born: 29 Aug 1548

Died: 5 Sep 1548

Notes: her governess was Elizabeth Aglionby, formerly one of Catherine Parr’s ladies, and looked after her, first at Sudeley Castle in Gloucestershire, where she was born, then at her uncle’s residence, Syon House, and finally, after her father’s execution, at Grimsthorpe in Lincolnshire, where Catherine Willoughby, Duchess of Suffolk, was her guardian. There she had, in addition to her governess, two maids and several other servants. Money for her care, however, was lacking. She had an income from the Court of Wards of just under F500 a year, but this income was not transferred to the Duchess. According to the Duchess, Mary’s mother’s family, the Parrs, refused to take her. Mary Seymour was restored in blood on 22 Jan 1550, but after that disappears from the records. Historian John Strype (b. 1643 - d. 1737) concluded that Mary must have died in childhood Strype seems to be the source later writers, including Edmund Lodge (b. 1756 - d. 1839), used for the information that Mary died as a child. Lodge says she died at thirteen. This would be consistent with Mrs. Aglionby’s reappearance at court in 1562 as mother of maids under Queen Elizabeth, but that is hardly proof of anything. Historian Agnes Strickland believes she lived to become a wife and mother, marrying a Sir Edward Bushel, by who she had a daughter through whom her fortune and pedigree eventually descended to the Lawson family who originally came from Westmorland and Cumberland. There is yet to be any documented proof of this, the evidence is only from the 18th C.

Anne SEYMOUR (C. Warwick)

Born: ABT 1538

Died: Feb 1587/8

Buried: 17 Feb 1587, Faringdon

Notes: oldest daughter, together with her sisters, Margaret and Jane, she was educated in a manner similar to the way Sir Thomas More’s daughters were taught. Thomas Cranmer was their tutor for three years, followed by Nicholas Denisot, who encouraged them to write a poem in honor of his former mistress, the Queen of Navarre. When he returned to France, he took the result wit him and it was published in 1550 as “Annae, Margaritae, Janae, Sonorum Virginum, heroidum Anglasum in mortem Margaritae Valesiae Navarrouim Reginae Hedadistichon”. The work inspired French poets to like efforts. Anne was also known for her religious studies and corresponded with John Calvin. She was married to John Dudley, Earl of Warwick, son of the Duke of Northumberland, in an effort to reconcile their fathers, but Anne’s father, the Duke of Somerset, was executed by Northumberland in 1552 and Northumberland himself was executed in 1553. Anne’s husband was in the Tower and condemned to death at the same time and died ten days after his release the following year. On Apr 28, 1555, Anne married Sir Edward Unton of Wadley, near Faringdon, Berkshire. Her son, Sir Henry Unton, was an important member of the elizabethan government, acted as an Ambassador in France. Anne, had at least one child, Edward, before Henry was born. She had three other sons, Alexander, Edmund and Francis; Francis, and was probably older than Henry. Her two daughters, Anne and Cecily, outlived their brothers. A famous picture about Sir Henry Unton (who show lady Anne on the right, representing Sir Henry birth) suggests that he was born at Ascott under Wychwood, but there is no evidence of this, and some people think he was born at Wadley. Edward and Anne may have lived at Langley near Shipton under Wychwood, as Anne and Cecily were baptised there. In Jul, 1574, Queen Elizabeth visited the Untons at Wadley. Throughout the period from 1566 to 1588, Anne was said to suffer periodic bouts of insanity. In Oct 1582, she was declared of unsound mind but the sermon preached at her funeral mourned her as a “noble lady, a faithful wife, a virtuous woman, and a godly widow”.

Jane SEYMOUR (Maid of Honour)

Born: ABT 1540

Died: 20 Mar 1561

Buried: St. Edmund´s Chapel, Westminster Abbey, London, Middlesex, England

Notes: a clever delicate girl, who had the reputation of being one of the most learned ladies of her time.  She wrote poetry and a number of her letters are extant. Her fathers wanted to marry Jane with Edward VI, her cousin, and the monarch really liked her, but the fall of her father from power prevent that. Jane was at court as a maid of honor during the reign of Mary Tudor and remained there in the same post under Queen Elizabeth. As Maid of Honour to Elizabeth I, she was a favorite of her mistress. She had to retire to the country to recover from an illness in the summer of 1558. She was taken to Hanworth, her mother's estate, in a horse-drawn litter and her close friend Lady Catherine Grey was allowed to go with her. Later she assisted Lady Catherine to seecretly married Jane’s brother, Edward, in Dec 1560. When Jane fell ill again, early in 1561, she was excused from her duties and remained in her rooms at Whitehall, where she died. She was buried in St. Edmund’s Chapel, Westminster, where her brother raised a monument to her memory. The inscription, now missing, "On the Death of Lady Jane Somerset", praised her "genius fam'd", her beauty, and her voice that "harmonious notes improv'd".

Notes: Although not an original proprietor, Richard Seymour was an early settler of Hartford, his name first appearing there in 1639.
