    Notes:

    A courtier and survivor at the court of Henry VIII, perhaps best described as a combination of Littlefinger and the Vicar of Bray.

    Sheriff of Wiltshire, 1522-23. Esquire of the body to Henry VIII by 1522. Knight of the shire for Wiltshire, 1529 and 1539. Burgess for Wilton in 1542.

    "[H]e was an astute courtier who served in the royal household (he was vice-chamberlain to all save the first of Henry VIII's wives) and on military expeditions to the Scottish borders and France, as well as in local affairs. He sat in the parliaments of 1529 and 1539 as a knight of the shire for Wiltshire, and in that of 1542 as a burgess for Wilton. Probably during his association with Thomas Cromwell he began the family tradition of strong protestantism, and at the dissolution he gained much former monastic land in and near Wiltshire, especially the site of Stanley Abbey and sixteen of its manors. He built an imposing manor house at Bromham, which was said to be almost as large as the king's new court at Whitehall, and which remained the family's chief residence until demolished during the civil war. [Oxford Dictionary of National Biography]

    Edward married Isabel Leigh about 18 Jan 1532. Isabel (daughter of Ralph Leigh and Joyce Culpeper) died on 16 Feb 1573. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    MP for Malmesbury, 1572; Devizes, 1584 and 1586; Old Sarum, 1589, and possibly Devizes again in 1593.

    "In 1593 he succeeded his mother to the site and demesnes of the monastery of Edington, Wiltshire. He so despoiled the house there, that the Marquess of Wiltshire alleged that £1000 would not repair it." [Royal Ancestry, citation details below.]

    Family/Spouse: Anne Cavendish. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Children:

    Notes:

    His wife's grandfather, William Weare alias, innkeeper of Salisbury, left to her all his lands and tenements in Salisbury, by which means Ferdinando Baynton became an innkeeper himself. Observed Walter Goodwin Davis (citation details below), "As the third son of a fourth son of his grandfather, Sir Edward Baynton, Ferdinando would have expcted no share in his family's great wealth and it seems obvious that he got none."

    Ferdinando married Jane Weare alias Browne about 1598. Jane (daughter of John Weare alias Browne) died after 1629. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
