The Baynard family - Lackham Countryside Centre

The Baynards of Lackham
Based on the PRO record seen above 302 Robert married Anne Hyett,
brother of Thomas Hyett, sometime before her death in 1603. She
was the widow of Thomas St Barbe of Lacock. Robert and Anne did
not have any children and he later married Ursula, the daughter of
Sir Robert Stapleton of Wighill 303 in Yorkshire. The date of this
marriage is unknown but there is no reason why it cannot have been
after 1603.
