Literature: Christopher Jones, The History of 10 Downing Street, 1985, pl35. 

Thomas Knyvet was the son and heir of John Knyvet, of Plumpstead, Norfolk, and his wife, Agnes, daughter 

of Sir John Harcourt, of Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire. Jane Knyvet, his paternal grandmother, was the 

second and only surviving daughter of Sir John Bourchier, 2nd Lord Berners (1467-1533), a descendant of 

King Edward III, and one of King Henry VIII’s most trusted courtiers. On the death of the 2nd Lord Berners 

she succeeded as de jure Baroness Berners, and on her death in 1561/2 Thomas Knyvet succeeded her 

as de jure 4th Baron Berners and inherited the estate of Ashwellthorpe in Norfolk. Knyvet was knighted by 

Queen Elizabeth I in her progress to Norfolk in 1578, and the following year was appointed High Sheriff of 

Norfolk. He married Muriel, daughter of Sir Thomas parry, Master of the Court of Wards and Liveries, and 

Treasurer of the Household to Queen Elizabeth I. In 1616 he obtained a certificate from the commissioner 

of the office of the Earl Marshall of his ‘right and title to the Barony of Berners’, but he died shortly 

afterwards, before obtaining the King’s confirmation. He was buried at Ashwellthorpe and was succeeded 

by his grandson Thomas.

English School, 18th century 

Half length portrait of William Herbert of Scarboro (sic) holding a telescope, shipping beyond 

oil on canvas 

74 x 62cm 

Estimate £2,000 - 3,000 

William Herbert of Scarborough (1733-1804) was born on 10 April 1733 and baptised at Scalby, three 

miles from Scarborough, on 4 May, the second son of Guy Herbert (1701-1781), a carpenter, and his wife 

Catherine Atty, whom he had married at Scalby on 10 August 1729. There were at least three other children 

– John (1730-1784), Guy (c1742-1820), a ship’s carpenter, who outlived his brother William and benefited 

considerably from his will; and Rachel (1736-1754). 

William seems to have married twice: to Isabel Abbott at Scarborough on 30 June 1757, and after her death 

in 1782, to Jane Akeleye (knocking two years off his age, probably on account of his bride being 17 years 

his junior) at Whitby on 21 October 1783. 

In 1774 William commissioned a collier from the Whitby shipwrights George and Nathaniel Langhorne. The 

Diligence had a displacement of 299 tons, a length of 91 feet 6 inches, a draught of 11 feet 5 inches and 

was rigged as a brig. In January 1776 Diligence was purchased by the Admiralty for £1865, converted from 

brig to ship rig by the addition of a third mast, armed with eight 4-pounder guns plus swivels, re-named 

Discovery and allocated to James Cook’s fleet; the cost of the refit was estimated at £550. The smallest of 

Cook’s four ships and the only one not built by Fishburn, Discovery had a complement of 70. 

William Herbert’s uncle, also William Herbert of Scarborough, was a mariner, and his will reveals 

connections with London merchants. It was written in November 1777, in contemplation of ‘the perils and 

dangers of the seas and other uncertainties of this transitory life’, and the probate reveals that he had died 

in Philadelphia Pennsylvania the following year. He left his nephew William Herbert £120, and appointed 

him his executor. 

William Herbert clearly prospered, and was described as esquire when on 13 September 1800 he advanced 

a loan of £1000 on a mortgage of Wyton Lodge with land at Wyton near Hull, on the north side of the 

turnpike road from Hull to Sproatley. 

By his will of 15 February 1804, William Herbert, who lived at a house on the south side of the High or 

Long Westgate in Scarborough, left an extensive landed estate in and around the town to his brother Guy 

Herbert. He died on 26 June 1804 and was buried in the church of Scarborough St Mary, where a small 

monument survives. His will was proved in September 1804, first at York and then in the Prerogative Court 

of Canterbury, by his widow Jane Herbert. The will does not mention any children, nor interests in shipping. 

In 1810 Jane Herbert was living as a widow in Sculcoates, a suburb of Hull, when she was repaid the £1000 

owing on the mortgage. By 1828 she had returned to Scarborough, with a pew at the parish church, when 

she made her will. The main beneficiaries were her daughter (by her previous marriage to George Fletcher) 

Jane Fletcher – William had referred to her as his step-daughter in his own will – and her descendants. The 

will was proved in PCC on 12 September 1829.
