Biography

"The following year the King granted Lovel's manor to Charles Somerset, afterwards Earl of Worcester. (fn. 41) His grandson, William Earl of Worcester, obtained a new grant of the manor in 1553, (fn. 42) and in the same year sold it to Gilbert Pickering. (fn. 43) Gilbert's son John (d. 1591) had a son Gilbert, who married Elizabeth, daughter of . . .Hogard of Bourn, in Cambridgeshire. He was succeeded in 1613 by his son John, who in 1609 had married Susannah, daughter of Sir Erasmus Dryden. (fn. 44) (fn. 45) Their son, Sir Gilbert Pickering, was created a baronet in 1638, and married Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Sidney Montagu. (fn. 46)"[1]


A rent of 20 marks held in 1412 by Nicholas Mores, in Rothewell, Titchmarsh, and Glapthorn may have arisen from one or more of these portions of land (fn. 59) and equally be represented by the manor, later known as TYRRINGHAMS, which was bought from John Morice in 1512 by Thomas Tyrringham and others. (fn. 60) On the death of Thomas, the manor, which was held of Lovel's manor by fealty only, passed to his son Robert, a minor. (fn. 61) The latter died in 1532 and his heir was his brother Thomas, (fn. 62) who settled the manor in 1544 on Edmund, his son, and he, in 1557, conveyed it to Thomas, probably his brother. Apparently, in 1557, it was held by Boniface Pickering, (fn. 63) the third son of the Gilbert Pickering, (fn. 64) who had bought Lovel's Manor (q.v.). In 1583 Boniface settled the manor on his second son, James, on his marriage with Anne Clifford. James obtained seisin when his father died in 1586. (fn. 65) He was succeeded in 1629 by his grandson Christopher, (fn. 66) who owned the manor in 1655. (fn. 67) On his death, it seems to have been divided between his two heiresses, Anne the wife of Alexander Wilkinson and Jane Pickering.[2]
