For more on the Gawdy family and Framlingham Gawdy (1589, 1655), parliamentarian and parliamentary diarist, see ODNB. Phillipps MS 26707:Hugh Speke (1567-1625) was the second son of Sir George Speke, of Whitelackington, near Ilminster, Somerset, by his second marriage to a London goldsmith’s daughter, Dorothy Gilbert. The Speke family were wealthy landowners in Devon and Somerset, Members of Parliament, who had their own chantry in Exeter Cathedral but Hugh did not inherit the title or the main land. For a quarter of a century after about 1574, the manors of Box and Hazelbury had been held by Sir John Young, a great merchant of Bristol, until his death in 1592, leaving his widow a life tenancy at Hazelbury. Hugh Speke started an aggressive acquisition strategy. He became lord of Box Manor in 1602 when he bought parts of the old Bonham estate from Sir John Young, including the lay manors of Box, Hazelbury and Box Agard (the lands of Box Church); the advowson of Box Church; and other land in Box, Hazelbury and Wadswick. He was living in Hazelbury Manor by 1610, possibly as a tenant before he actually purchased the place in 1613, said to be courtesy of a gift from his father, and the house became his main home. Hugh was buried in Box Church with an inscription, Here lieth the body of Hugh Speke, of Haselbury, Esqr., second son of Sir George Speke, of Whitlakington, in the Countie of Somerset, Knight of the Bath, who deceased the 4th day of Januarie, An. Dni. 1624. (boxpeopleandplaces.co.uk/speke-family.html)

Names of Monasteries 1550 [so titled on upper cover]. List of religious houses in England and Wales in the hand of Sir William Petre, circa 1535, a paper book of 7 folios, endorsed 'Catalogus domorum Religiosorum in Anglia', all conserved [at Essex Record Office, Chelmsford], where in 1957 it formed Essex Record Office Temporary Accession 109, conserved in a modern calf gilt binding containing the original binding (a substantial fragment of a grant, on parchment, of property in Axminster and elsewhere in Devon by Robert Cansfield to Sir John Petre, Lord Petre of Writtle and his son Sir William Petre, 1605-1606), heavily rubbed, narrow folio (430 x 160 mm)QTY: (1)NOTE:Provenance: With a letter from Frederick George [Derick] Emmison (1907–1995), county archivist of Essex, returning the document to W.A. Foyle at Beeleigh Abbey and identifying the author as Sir William Petre and the date as 1535 or 1536, 31 December 1957.The information is arranged into 14 groups of counties: Kent, Surrey and Sussex; Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire; Devon, Cornwall, Dorset and Somerset; Wiltshire, Hampshire and Somerset; Northamptonshire, Warwickshire, Leicestershire and Rutland; Staffordshire, Shropshire, Worcestershire and Herefordshire; Huntingtonshire and Cambridgeshire; Lincolnshire; Yorkshire; bishopric of Durham; Westmorland, Cumberland and Northumberland; Cheshire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire; South Wales; North Wales. Within each of these sections, the houses are grouped by religious order or type – Augustinians, Benedictines, Carthusians, nunneries, Cistercians, Cluniacs, Hospitallers, Gilbertines and Premonstratensians. Each such list is headed with houses identified as ‘above 300 marks per annum’.The list closes with the Bonhommes of Ashridge and Edgington, St John [of] Jerusalem for the Knights of Rhodes, preceptories ‘commonly called the commanderies of the Knights of St John Jerusalem’, ‘all the friar houses in England whereof a great number have fair possession ’, all the colleges in England amounting to [blank], all the chantries in England being in number [blank], the possessions of the bishoprics in the realm abated [blank].The identification of the houses worth over 300 marks (£200) a year places the text between Valor Ecclesiasticus, the valuation of monasteries compiled by the summer of 1535, and February 1536 when parliament passed the Suppression of Religious Houses Act (27 Hen. VIII c. 28), which provided for the dissolution of houses with a net income of less than £200 a year. It also demonstrates that as early as 1535, the dissolution not only of monasteries but of colleges and chantries was contemplated, a process not achieved until 1547, and that even the secular episcopal estate had come under the official eye. The principal official responsible for this process between 1535 and 1540 was Sir William Petre (1505/6–1572).Petre was the son of a prosperous Devon cattle farmer and tanner. He entered Oxford as a law student in 1519 and was admitted fellow of All Souls in 1523, retaining this place until 1535 and serving as law bursar in 1528/9. He graduated bachelor in both laws on 2 July 1526, and during 1527 and 1528 he practised in the Oxford chancellor’s court. He is believed to have been made tutor to Sir Thomas Boleyn’s son George (brother of Anne). Through this connection, supposedly, he came to Henry VIII’s notice, and was one of the junior counsel representing the king in his matrimonial suit before the legatine court at Blackfriars (May–July 1529). In the course of 1533 he began work as a chancery clerk.During the summer of 1535 Petre submitted proposals for the reorganization of ecclesiastical jurisdiction under the crown, and from October he presided over Cromwell’s vice-gerential court. Between 1535 and 1540 Petre was principally occupied with the visitation and dissolution of religious houses, tasks he performed with efficiency and fairness, avoiding the unsavoury reputation of his fellow commissioners. Nevertheless he used his position to amass a substantial landholding, mainly in his native Devon and in Essex. By 1540 he had a rent-roll in excess of £500. On 15 December 1539, following the dissolution of Barking Abbey, he received a grant of the property from the crown. Here he built his seat, Ingatestone Hall. His family’s firm adherence to the Catholic religion largely impeded his heirs from following the path of royal and public service which he had himself so successfully negotiated, which his heirs still occupy.
