Thomas Skrimshire of Norbury, co. Stafford, was not a native of that county but was presumably from North Muskham (Muschamp), co. Nottingham, where a Skrimshire family of minor gentry was well established. The Skrimshire arms were--Gules, a lion rampant or within a border vair (Skrimshire), quartering Azure, a chevron between three flies argent (Muschamp), which would indicate a claim to an ancestral marriage with an heiress of a family which took its name from the manor or parish of Muschamp. In his History of Staffordshire, Mr. Thoroton says "In Batheley [a hamlet in North Muskham] there yet remains a branch of the family of Scrimshire which have been resident and owners of land in these hamlets and towns of Muskham above 400 years. The first I have taken notice of was Hugh de Skirmessour and Christian his wife about King John's time." He also includes several detached Skrimshire records, only one of which is important to us. In 17 Henry VIII (1525-1526) Richard Skrymsher, Thomas Skrymsher, Henry Sutton, esquire, William Skrymsher, clerk, and Robert Hewes claimed against Renald Fawcett two messuages, four tofts, 100 acres of land, 20 acres of meadow and 20 acres of pasture in South Muskham and Carleton. Thomas Skrymsher was doubtless our Norbury man while Richard was his elder brother and father of William Skrimshire, Thomas's nephew and executor...
Skrimshire was escheator for the county of Stafford 1528-1529 and 1535-1536, J.P. from 1531 until his death in 1551/2 and was possibly a Member of Parliament in 1536 or 1539-1540. His first wife and the mother of his children was probably Mary Swineshead, dau of William Swineshead of Swineshead, co Stafford. His 2nd wife was probably a dau of Sir Edward Grey of Enville, co Stafford, who in his will of 1529 makess a bequest to his son-in-law Skrymsher. As his wife was Margaret in 1539-1540, it is probable that she was Margaret Grey.
pg 623:
Thomas Skrymsher of Norbury, Esq., made his will on January 26, 1550/1 and it was proved on February 12, 1551/2. ; He directed that he be buried in the chancel of Norbury church under the alabaster stone that he had caused to be made. ...
He mentions Edward Mitton
