Notities over WILLIAM BOTELER

Son & heir of William Boteler. William Boteler, who acquired Biddenham Manor, died in 1554-5, when his son William succeeded to the estate.

At the Dissolution of the Monasteries the temporalities of Newnham in this parish were valued at £9 8s. 8d., and were granted in 1540 to John Gostwick, who in the same year sold them to William Boteler and Anne his wife. The family of Butler appears to have been long resident in this parish, the name of Thomas Boteler of Biddenham occurring in a charter dated 1313, whilst towards the end of the 14th century Thomas Boteler of Biddenham, a branch of the same family, acquired, by his marriage with Grace daughter and heir of Alan de Kirton, Kirtons, a 'capital messuage' in Biddenham, which became the residence of the family for several generations.

William Boteler, who acquired Biddenham Manor, as it is henceforward called, died in 1554-5, when his son William succeeded to the estate, on whose death in 1601 the manor passed to his son Thomas Boteler. He was knighted by James I, and died in 1625, leaving five sons and three daughters, of whom William Boteler, the eldest son, acquired this manor. He died in 1671, and appears to have left three daughters as co-heirs. Of these daughters, reference has been found to the shares of Helen wife of Sir Pynsent Chernock and Mary wife of William Farrer, and the former in 1708 and again in 1709 conveyed her third of Biddenham by fine to William Farrer. In 1735 Thomas Russell owned one-third of this manor, and two years later another portion was held by William Townsend and his wife. Between this date and 1758 the whole property, including the advowson, appears to have been transferred to Robert Lord Trevor, who owned the larger manor here, and it is henceforward to be found attached to what is known as the Bromham estate.

William, a Merchant of the Staple, His will was made and proved in 1554 and he wished to be buried in the chapel built by his father in Biddenham Church [in 1522 in the north aisle]. By his will he disposed of what remained of the London property, and he also required his executors to sell the shops and cellars in Calais [it was recaptured by the French four years later in 1558]. His eldest son William could scarcely have been more than ten years old on his father's death and a second son Robert was to be put apprentice to his father's friend Blaise Sanders, citizen and mercer of London.
