Notes:

"[B]elieved a younger son of Sir Norman Washbourne." [Washburn Family Foundations, citation details below.]

"The conclusion of the whole matter seems to be that there is no clear proof either as to the parentage of Thomas Washbourne of Stanford, or as to the exact date of the marriage of his daughter Elizabeth with John Pakington, whose father, John Pakington, was living in the fourteenth year of Henry VI. But of the fact that the marriage brought the Pakingtons into the county there seems no doubt." [The Washbourne Family of Little Washbourne and Wichenford in the County of Worcester, citation details below.]

All things considered, the fifteen ancestors shown here for Thomas Washbourne and tagged as ancestors of TNH, TSW, and AP should be regarded as possible but unproven. The same persons, however, were definitely ancestors of Eleanor Washbourne who married Richard Scrope, both of them ancestors of Anne Paston (1553-1637).

Notes:

Sheriff of Norfolk and Suffolk in 1565-66.

“He played little part in national affairs but took a prominent role in the government and political life of his native county and was known as a careful administrator and a ‘just and painstaking magistrate’ [...] A supporter of Edmund Freake, bishop of Norwich (1575–84), Paston was involved in the bitter conflict between the bishop and the puritans for control of the chancellorship of the diocese in 1578. He was described by Bishop Scrambler as an ‘observer of law’ which has been taken to mean that his religious views were either conformist Church of England or impartial (Smith, 214). In 1597 he moved to the new house which his uncle, Sir Clement Paston, had built at Oxnead. Known for his liberality, hospitality and benefactions, Paston is chiefly remembered for the founding and endowment of North Walsham grammar school (the Paston School), in 1606.” [Oxford DNB, citation details below.]

As he lived through her entire reign, presumably he was aware that queen Elizabeth was his third cousin, both of them being great-great grandchildren of London mayor Geoffrey Boleyn and his wife Anne Hoo.

Notes:

The will of Alice Hayne, widow of Semley, Wiltshire, dated 2 Mar 1621, proved 2 Mar 1624, establishes her as the mother of Walter Haynes and the grandmother of Sufferance Haynes.

The parish register of Sherborne, Dorset shows the marriage, on 23 Oct 1575, of John Hayne to Alice Lambert. It is not proven that Alice Hayne of the will is the Alice Lambert of this marriage, but the dates fit with what we do know. Semley, Wiltshire and Sherborne, Dorset are nineteen miles apart.

Notes:

Also spelled Haines or Hayne.

Emigrated in 1638 with wife Elizabeth and daughter Sufferance [Sufferana], on the Confidence out of Southampton, the same ship as Peter Noyes.

Professional linen weaver.

His first home was turned into a fort in the siege of Sudbury during King Phillip's War. The house stood for two centuries thereafter. An original painting of the house is reproduced in Hudson's History of Sudbury, page 224.

From the Sudbury Archives:

WALTER HAYNES (HAYNE or HAINE) came to America from England on the ship "Confidence," in 1638. He was a freeman May 13, 1641. He represented the town in the General Court in the years 1641, '44, '48 and '51, and was a selectman ten years. Mr. Haynes was probably one of the first grantees to erect a house on the west side of the river, which house was probably the "Haynes Garrison." He died February 14, 1665. In his will, Thomas is mentioned as being away from home, and Sufferance as being the wife of Josiah TREADWAY, and Mary as the wife of Thomas NOYES. One piece of property disposed of in his will was a tenement is Shaston, Dorsetshire, England.

[Note: The will says only that Sufferance was the wife of someone named Treadway, not that he was named Josiah. Ella F. Elliot (citation details below) demonstrated that her Treadway husband was in fact Nathaniel.]

Family/Spouse: Elizabeth. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
