1. John BALDWIN was born in 1415.

John BALDWIN had the following children:

+2 i. William BALDWIN.
3 ii. Sylvester BALDWIN died in 1503. May have married
Sara(h) Gelly? I have seen this Sylvester son of John (b1415) as died in
1503 and married to Sara(h) Gelly. I have also seen a Sylvester (no
father listed) who married Sara(h
) Gelly and died in 1593.
There has been some speculation that Sylvester is
the father of Henry who married Alice King I have found no evidence of
this and the dates seem to far apart for this to be likely.

SIR JOHN BALDWIN of Buckinghamshire, died Oct 24, 1545. Inquest of his
estate was held at Aylesbury, Dec 22, 1545.
" He was a member of the inner temple and appointed reader in 1516, 1524
and 1531. He twice filled the office of treasurer, 1524 and 1530. He
was of Bucks in 1510 (on commission of the peace)..... In 1520 he was a
man of sufficient mark to be nomin
ated on the sheriff roll, but he was not selected by the king. In 1529
he was on the commission to hear causes in chancery committed to then
Cardinal Wolsey, then lord chancellor. In 1530, on Cardinal's fall,he
was selected to hold inquisition a
s to the extent of his property in Bucks. He set in the House of Commons
once, being burgess for Bendon in Wiltshire in 1529. In 1530 he was
appointed attorney general for Wales and the Marches, and also of the
county Palntine of Chester and Flint.
His patent as sarjeant-in-law is dated Nov 16, 1531. According to
Dugdale he and Thomas Willoughby were the first serjeants-in-law to
receive the honor of knighthood. this was in 1534. In 1535, he was
appointed chief justice of common pleas and
almost the first cases in which he acted in a judiciary capacity were the
trials of Bishop Fisher and Sir Thomas More for treason. He also acted
in the same capacity at the trials of Anne Boleyn the same year. He
seemed to have lived principally at
Aylesbury. He aquired a house and site of the Grey Friars and the manors
of Ellesberough and Durich" (Dist Am. Biog.)
Colonel Chester says he was given the Manor of Dunridge in Bucks by
Henery VIII shortly after 1541, and that he died in1545. When he died he
left no surviving sons. The D.N.B. article says he had a son William,
who married Mary Tyringham, but died
during his father's lifetime. The estate passed to his heirs, Thomas
Packington, son and heir of his daughter Agnes, wife of Robert
Packington, and to John Burlacy, son and hair of his daughter Petronilla.
The manor then passed to Thomas Packingto
n's son and heir, John, who in March 1577/78 alienated to Henry and
Richard Baldwin, who in 1579 paid the taxes on the manor. These are
considered by Col. Chester to be father and son. In 1553 two brothers,
Richard and John occupied Dundridge. Thi
s was but eight years after the death of Sir John. These brothers are
probably the sons of Richard - the brother of Sir John.
