Notities over Walter MILDMAY

Sir Walter Mildmay (bef. 1523 - 31 May 1589) was an English statesman who served as Chancellor of the Exchequer of England under Queen Elizabeth I, and was founder of Emmanuel College, Cambridge.

Born at Moulsham, Essex, Mildmay was the fourth and the youngest son of Thomas Mildmay, Auditor of the Court of Augmentations for Henry VIII, by his wife, Agnes Read. As the Commissioner for receiving the surrender of the monasteries, his father Thomas had made a large fortune and in 1540 was granted the Manor of Moulsham, near Chelmsford, where he built a fine mansion.

Mildmay was educated at Christ's College, Cambridge, but apparently failed to take his degree. He later became a student of law at Gray's Inn, and there obtained some employment under his father in the Court of Augmentation.

Mildmay soon proved himself a skilful financier. In 1550 he was directed, together with the Earl of Warwick and Sir William Herbert, to examine the accounts of the King's mints, and in 1551 superintended the establishment of a new mint at York. In December 1551 he was a Commissioner to inspect the Courts which controlled the Crown lands.

On 2 January 1552 he was commissioned to levy the King's debts;
On 21 November to settle with the Crown accountants the effect of a fall in the value of money;
In December to audit the funds belonging to the king's officers; and
In that and the next year he superintended the receipt by the crown of plate, jewels, bells, and the like surrendered by dissolved monasteries or chantries.

Mildmay married Mary, daughter of William Walsingham, by Joyce, daughter of Edmund Denny, baron of exchequer, and sister of Sir Francis Walsingham. She died 16 March 1576. His children were Sir Anthony; Humphrey of Danbury Place, Essex, father of Sir Henry Mildmay; Winifred, wife of Sir William Fitzwilliam of Gains Park, Essex; Martha, wife of Sir William Brouncker; and Christian, wife successively of Charles Barrett of Aveley in Essex, and Sir John Leveson of Kent, Knight.

The eldest son, Sir Anthony Mildmay (d. 1617), who inherited the family estate of Apethorpe, was an ambassador in Paris. He married Grace Sharington and had one daughter, Mary.
