*'''John BRAY
*'''Acceded: Eaton Braye, Bedford
*'''Buried: Chelsea Church
*'''Notes: In 1542 John Sackville sold to John Selwyn of Friston, Sussex, for 6.13.4, the wardship and marriage of the heir of John Bray of Westdean, Sussex, and the custody of the manor of Westdean which was held of the elder Sackville by knight's service. It would appear that the John Bray referred to would be this John Bray, as his son Edward, "of Henfield and Selmeston, Suss. & Vachery, Surr." was active in the immediate area of Westdean, Sussex. Selmeston, Sussex lies just North of Westdean. He was also Member of Parliament for Lewes which lies to the West. Henfield lies further to the West.

* SIR RICHARD BRAY, is said by some to have been of the privy council to HENRY VI. ; by others he is called the King's Physician ; the former is the more probable, as he was buried in Worcester cathedral. He had two wives; by the first, Margaret, dau. of John Sandes, esq. of Furnes Felles, in Lancashire, he had an only son,
** JOHN (Sir), whose only daughter and heir,
*** MARGARET BRAY, espoused Sir William Sandys, summoned to parliament in 1529, as Baron Sandys, of the Vine, and conveyed to his lordship a considerable estate.(*) The barony of Sandys fell into abeyance, on the decease of the eighth lord, about the year 1700, and it so continues. (See BURKE's Extinct Peerage).
*By the second, Joan, Sir Richard had two other sons, namely,
** 1. Reginald (Sir), who being in the service of Margaret, Countess of Richmond, (+) was confidentially employed in the negotiations preceding the enterprize of her son, the earl, which placed that prince on the throne as Henry VII. Sir Reginald was made a knight banneret at Bosworth, and afterwards one of the knights of the body to the new king, who further rewarded his fidelity and zeal
** (*) .... etc.
** by large grants (§) of land, and by conferring upon him the order of the Bath, and finally that of the GARTER. He was also of the privy council, and heId for one year the office of Lord Treasurer.(||) He m. Catherine, daughter of Nicholas Hussey; but dying without issue, devised the principal part of his landed estate between his nephew, Edmund Bray, and his niece, MARGARET, the wife of Lord Sandys. Sir Reginald laid the first stone of HENRY the Seventh's CHAPEL, at Westminster, on the 24th January, 1502-3, and died on the 5th August, in the same year. By his will he directed that his body should be buried in the chapel, on the south side of the church of Our Ladie and St. George, in the castle

This Edmund was about the age of eighteen at the death of Sir Reginald, who had acted as his guardian and took care of his education. He m. Jane,(f) daughter and heir of Richard Halywell, esq, and had JOHN, his heir, with several daughters. In the 6th of HENRY VIII.

**Bray, Reginald by Thompson Cooper
*BRAY, Sir REGINALD (d. 1503), statesman and architect, was the second son of Sir Richard Bray, one of the privy council to Henry VI, by his wife Joan Troughton. The father was of Eaton-Bray in Bedfordshire, and lies buried in the north aisle of Worcester cathedral; Leland speaks of him as having been, by the report of some, physician to Henry VI (Itinerary, 113 a). The son was born in the parish of St. John Bedwardine, near Worcester (Nash, Worcestershire, ii. 309). He held the situation of receiver-general and steward of the household to Sir Henry Stafford, the second husband of Margaret, countess of Richmond (mother of the Earl of Richmond, afterwards King Henry VII), and he continued in her service during her subsequent marriage with Thomas, lord Stanley (afterwards Earl of Derby), by whom he was appointed a trustee for her dower of 600 marks per annum. In 1 Richard III (1483) he had a general pardon granted to him, probably for having taken part with Henry VI. .... etc.
*Bray married Catharine, daughter of Nicholas Husee, a descendant of the ancient barons of that name in the reign of Edward III. He had no issue, and his elder brother John having only one daughter, married to Sir William Sandes, afterwards Lord Sandes of the Vine, he left the bulk of his fortune to Edmund, '''eldest son of his younger brother John (for he had two brothers of that name)'''. This Edmund was summoned to parliament in 1530, as Baron of Eaton-Bray; but his son John, lord Bray, dying without issue in 1557, the estate was divided among six daughters of Edmund. Sir Reginald left very considerable estates to Edward and Reginald, younger brothers of Edmund.
*His portrait was in a window of the Priory church of Great Malvern in Worcestershire, and is engraved in Strutt's 'View of the Manners, Customs, &c. of the Inhabitants of England,' ii. pi. 60, and more accurately in Carter's 'Ancient Sculpture and Painting.' .... etc.

**Bray, Reginald by Thompson Cooper
*BRAY, Sir REGINALD (d. 1503), statesman and architect, was the second son of Sir Richard Bray, one of the privy council to Henry VI, by his wife Joan Troughton. The father was of Eaton-Bray in Bedfordshire, and lies buried in the north aisle of Worcester cathedral; Leland speaks of him as having been, by the report of some, physician to Henry VI (Itinerary, 113 a). The son was born in the parish of St. John Bedwardine, near Worcester (Nash, Worcestershire, ii. 309). He held the situation of receiver-general and steward of the household to Sir Henry Stafford, the second husband of Margaret, countess of Richmond (mother of the Earl of Richmond, afterwards King Henry VII), and he continued in her service during her subsequent marriage with Thomas, lord Stanley (afterwards Earl of Derby), by whom he was appointed a trustee for her dower of 600 marks per annum. In 1 Richard III (1483) he had a general pardon granted to him, probably for having taken part with Henry VI. .... etc.
*Bray married Catharine, daughter of Nicholas Husee, a descendant of the ancient barons of that name in the reign of Edward III. He had no issue, and his '''elder brother John having only one daughter''', married to Sir William Sandes, afterwards Lord Sandes of the Vine, he left the bulk of his fortune to Edmund, eldest son of his younger brother John ('''for he had two brothers of that name'''). This Edmund was summoned to parliament in 1530, as Baron of Eaton-Bray; but his son John, lord Bray, dying without issue in 1557, the estate was divided among six daughters of Edmund. Sir Reginald left very considerable estates to Edward and Reginald, younger brothers of Edmund.
*His portrait was in a window of the Priory church of Great Malvern in Worcestershire, and is engraved in Strutt's 'View of the Manners, Customs, &c. of the Inhabitants of England,' ii. pi. 60, and more accurately in Carter's 'Ancient Sculpture and Painting.' .... etc.
