Edmund VERNEY

Born: 1529, Pendley Manor, Tring, Hertfordshire, England

Died: 13 Dec 1558

Notes: Sir Ralph Verney died in 1525, leaving his son Ralph a minor. He died in l556, and the manor came to his son Edmund, a minor at the time of his father's death. His wardship, first acquired by Henry Manners, 2nd Earl of Rutland, was bought in 1546 by Sir Edmund Peckham. The wardship and marriage of Edmund and an annuity from the manor were granted in l547 to Sir Edmund Peckham. The resulting marriage with Dorothy Peckham ended with her death in childbirth in May 1547 but her father retained custody of the property until Nov 1549. Edmund Verney seems to have fallen into disgrace under Queen Mary, and was in 1553 ordered to keep to his house during the Queen's pleasure. Edmund Verney was involved with Henry Peckham in the Dudley conspiracy. He died in 1558, without leaving issue, and the manor came to his third brother, Edmund Verney, jun., who died seised of it in 1600, leaving his son Francis a minor. Edmund's second wife Mary survived him, and having persuaded her husband before his death to divide the inheritance between her son Edmund and her stepson Francis, an Act of Parliament was obtained to ratify this, and on the attainment of his majority Sir Francis tried to obtain a reversal of it. He failed to do so, however, and after selling his inheritance he went abroad, and dissipated it. He was an associate of Richard Giffard, captain of a pirate fleet, and died at the Hospital of St. Mary of Pity at Messina in 1615. The manor of Pendley had been sold in 1606/7 by Mary Verney and Sir Francis and Ursula his wife to Richard Anderson, from whom the manor descended in the same way as Wiggington (q.v.)

In 1506 it was stated that about eighty years before, Pendley was 'a great town, whereof part lay in the parish of Tring and part in the parish of Aldbury. The part in the parish of Tring was held of the Archbishop of Canterbury as of his manor of Tring and the part in the parish of Aldbury of the manor of Aldbury, At that time there was no great mansion-house there, but there were in the town above thirteen plows besides divers handicraft men, as tailors, shoemakers and cardmakers with divers others. The town was afterwards cast down and laid to pasture by Sir Robert Whittingham, who built the said place at the west end there as the town sometimes stood, for the town was in the east and south part of the same place'. From further proceedings it seems that Sir Robert Whittingham also ploughed up a common way and in 1491/2 vestiges of the hedges still remained.

Died: 11 Jan 1599, Chalfont, St.Giles, Stonehouse, Buckinghamshire, England

Buried: 15 Feb 1599/1600, Aldbury, Hertfordshire, England

Notes: his third wife, Mary Blackeney, persuaded him to divide some property settled on Francis by his uncle with young Edmund and married Francis to her daughter in 1599. As soon as he came of age, however, Sir Francis petitioned the House of Commons to overturn these arrangements. He lost the case, but rather than let his stepmother's plan succeed, he sold his estates in 1607 and by 1608 had left England. He never returned to his homeland or to the wife forced upon him.

Edmund VERNEY (Sir)

Born: 7 Apr 1596

Died: 23 Oct 1642, battle of Edgehill

Notes: although he disapproved of and voted against the policies of Charles I, Verney's personal loyalty to the King was such that he fought for the Royalist side in the Civil War. His family was divided, as his eldest son supported Parliament. Appointed standard-bearer, Verney killed sixteen Parliamentarians at the Battle of Edgehill before meeting his own death. His hand was later found still grasping the standard, but his body was never recovered.
