atthew Dale of London & Bristol, Third Son of William of BristolMatthew Dale is the best recorded and was a very wealthy haberdasher listed in the 1568 Visitation of London as of Bristol and London. The fact that Matthew Dale was not mentioned as an executor of his father���s will most likely indicated that he was probably younger than his brothers, Thomas and William. I mentioned Matthew previously because he was an immediate neighbor of John Dale, the Master Chef of Henry VIII.Matthew married Margaret Chapman of nearby Bath - her brother was the famous soldier, Peter Chapman of Bath, both children of Thomas Chapman, clothier of Bath. Peter Chapman’s other sister married Thomas Bradley, an official in Louthe in Lincolnshire, the center of my Dale research, and her son John Bradley was a captain of Pikemen for Sir Francis Vere. Francis was the older brother of Horace Vere with whom Governor Dale fought in the Low Countries.The mother of John Bradley Sr. was Frances, daughter of John Fairfax of Swarby and presumably parents of William Fairfax of Swarby who married ‘Cousin Elizabeth Kelke’ mentioned in the 1559 will of William Dale of London, son of Matthew Dale. Swarby was only four miles from Sleaford, center of the Pilgrimage of Grace, and it was then held, along with Aswarby, by her father Robert Carr. Charles Brandon took over Swarby and shortly after Christopher Kelke, her second husband, was Lord of the Manor and William Fairfax, her first husband, held the avowson. Elizabeth’s brother George Carr married Mary Sutton who then married Bartholomew Armyn from the same family that once held Aswarby. Bartholomew Armyn sponsored Thomas Dale as vicar at Lenton Manor where Armyn resided and John Bucke held ‘Hamby Grange’ at Lenton. Buck was the Muster Master for Peregrine Bertie, Lord Willoughby, who was a half-brother to the children of Charles Brandon.Interestingly, Swarby had been held by the Arundel family until Thomas Arundel was attainted for his role in toppling Edward Seymour. Thomas Arundel was executed at the same time as Michael Stanhope apparently for their conspiracy to depose John Dudley, Earl Warwick. Arundel and Stanhope were made to confess. Was Dudley was trying to clear the decks of some of his fellow conspirators so he would have to dispense with fewer estates, or rid the proof that he had secretly fermented the rebellions?In 1521, Peter Chapman gave testimony that he was the brother-in-law of Matthew Dale of London and Bristol in testimony confirming the death of a ‘Robert Dale of Dauley, son of [___] Dale of Westerdale, and father of Robert and Thomas Dale.’ Unfortunately, we could not decipher the name of Robert’s father in Westerdale but it does link the families between Bristol and Westerdale in Yorkshire. A. G. Dale wrote: “Leonard Dale settled in Westerdale, near Stokesly in Yorkshire, which formed part of the Duchy of Lancaster.” It is significant that Robert Pursglove, who ordained Thomas Dale and Robert Dale in Lincolnshire adjacent to Thomas Dale of Alford, resided at Guisborough only twelve miles from Westerdale! Arthur Dakin of Chelmorton held significant property as well centered a few miles away at Hackness.Matthew Dale was to be buried in the church of Saint Mary Magdalene in London and he mentioned sons Henry Dale, James Dale, John Dale, Matthew Dale, and his heir William Dale, as well as Henry Wyatt, his sister’s son. Matthew mentioned daughter Mary Marlar, wife of a successful tradesman and Roanoke voyage investor, and finally, he mentioned son-in-law Gregory Esham. The will of Matthew Dale was dated July 20, 1549, proven 1550.Will of Matthew Dale, of the city of London, haberdasher dated 20 July 1549. To be buried in the parish church of St Mary Magdalene, Milk Street, without lights or Vainglory. Half my goods to my sons Henry, James, John, and Matthew equally, and the other half to my son and heir William. My son William Dale to be executor and to have the warehouse adjoining my dwelling in the said parish, and to his heirs, and in default to my other sons, and in default to my daughter Mary Marler and her heirs, and in default to my cousin Robert Dale, and in default to Henry Wyott, my sister’s son, and in default the premises to be sold and the money given to the poor. I appoint as overseers my sons in law Walter Marler and Gregory Isham, and to each of their wives I give a black gown. To my cousin Elizabeth Dale, my brother William’s daughter a black gown. To twelve poor men and women a black gown apiece. To Roger Dale my cousin ... To my company of haberdashers .... I make and end and seal my last will 5 April 1550. Proved 8 May 1550 by William Dale the executor.
Eldest Son & heir, William DaleSon William Dale (will August 26, 1559) was the eldest son and heir of the haberdashery business and the warehouse adjoining the residence of his father. His will was executed November 28, 1559, and it may be the most significant will in our research [P.C.C. 5q Channay] and we will refer to it multiple times. William mentioned brother-in-law Walter Marlar, Brother Henry Dale, Cousin Elizabeth Kelke, Brother-in-law William Roswell, and Customer Thomas Smythe of the Port of London. It was Smythe’s father, John Smythe, who was shipping merchandise on the ship of Matthew’s brother Thomas Dale of Bristol. Customer Smythe’s son was not only Governor Dale’s boss, but also an overseer of Governor Dale’s will. Note he makes no mention of a wife or children.Will of William Dale, citizen and haberdasher of London, dated 26 August 1559. To my brother William Rosewell , the Queen’s Solicitor General a gold ring worth , 3 and to my sister his wife the great guilt cup. To Walter Marler three gilt goblets. To my cousin Elizabeth Kelke one of my gold pots. To my cousin Thomas Avery and his wife each a ring of gold of £3. I release to my Uncle Peter Chapman all his debts. Residue to my brother Henry Dale, haberdasher, and he to be executor. Very friends Thomas Smythe, Customer of the Port of London and his wife…, Very Friends Thomas Blanke the younger and his wife, Rd. Blanke and his wife, and William Charringtor, haberdasher. 28 November 1559.
Second eldest son, John Dale of WareSon John Dale was mentioned as the second son, also a haberdasher of London, and here the records conflict. Some notes claim he was a member of Saint Mary’s Magdalene and married Elizabeth Lane in 1567 at Saint Martins in the Field, the same church where Governor Thomas Dale later married his wife in 1611. Most notes claim she was the daughter of” William Lane of London, Grocer” while the old pedigree chart in the Dale portfolio indicates that she was engaged to William Lane, Grocer. Regardless if she was the daughter or wife of William Lane, this William Lane, we believe, was father of the captain of the “John Evangelist” that sailed with Drake in the 1580s. Ralph Lane, Governor of Roanoke, was his brother and they once hailed from Orlingbury in Northamptonshire. We read that Lane sold Orlingbury Manor to William Tofte whose daughter married Roger Dale (Died 1602) of Collyweston & Tixover, son of Robert Dale of Hawkesley.It is my opinion only, that this was the same John Dale, wife Elizabeth (Lane), who lived across the alley from Matthew Dale of London and was the flamboyant Master Chef of King Henry VIII. Diplomats wrote to their countries about this fellow who changed into a new top fashion suit of clothing between each course of the meal. But if that is the case, he died about 1547!Captain William Lane married Anne Esham, daughter of John Esham and Anne Fitzwilliam Esham, the daughter of the Lord Deputy of Ireland, William Fitzwilliam and his wife Agnes Sydney, sister of Henry Sydney whose son Thomas Sydney of Hamby’s Grange married Margaret Dakin, widow of Walter Devereux. The pedigree chart indicates only one son, John Dale of Clavering, and that he was born in 1582, curiously, some fifteen years after John Dale and Elizabeth were reported married. No doubt this is in error unless John Dale of Ware was a different kinsman. John Dale was listed in the Cotton Collin genealogies as John Dale of Ware which earlier had been passed by Richard Andrews of Freefolk to John Dale of South Tydworth, possibly the father of John Dale the master chef.
Matthew’s daughter Elizabeth Dale Esham RosewellElizabeth Dale was first married to Gregory Esham (Isham) at Saint Pancreas on December 16, 1548, and he was buried at Braunston on the Northamptonshire- Rutland border on September 6, 1558. Gregory Esham was in the export of wool and very successful; his small company paid 5% of all the export tax paid in England one of those years. Secondly, she was married to William Roswell of Ford Abbey, the Queen’s solicitor. Roswell died in 1566 and left a lengthy will indicating that his manors were in Devon and Somerset.His brother, Gyles Esham, was the Steward to the 2nd Earl of Bedford, Francis Russell, the Marian Exile whose daughter married Ambrose Dudley, and his other daughter was the mother-in-law of Margaret Dakins. You might remember that it was his father John Russell who we met at Ludgershall Castle next to John Dale at South Tydworth. John Russell was a successful wine and shipping merchant. It was the servant of Francis Russell, Richard Tremayle, who was a refuge traitor along with John DALLE!Both father and son, John and Francis Russell, participated in Boulogne in 1544. Francis was godfather to the famous Sir Francis Drake. At the first of Mary’s reign he lived in exile, and later was accused of participation in Wyatt’s rebellion.
Daughter Mary Dale MarlarMary Dale married at Saint Antoine on May 7, 1545 merchant Walter Marlar who was an investor in the Watts Syndicate of exploration ships including the “Hopewell”, “Moonshine”, “Little John”, and “John Evangelist”, captained by William Lane during the Drake voyages.
Son James Dale James Dale prepared his will on July 10, 1551 and mentioned his brothers John and Matthew, Uncle Peter Chapman, Sister Mary and her husband Walter Marlar, Brothers William and Henry Dale, and brother-in-law Gregory Esham.
Son Henry DaleHenry Dale, haberdasher of London on Lombard Street, was mentioned in his brother’s will in 1559 and again in 1566. In the visitation, he was listed as of Bristol. Henry married Emerie, daughter of Robert Cordell of London, son of Thomas Cordell of Long Meadow. Henry Dale of Lombard Street apparently lived until 1590 and had three daughters: Ann, Alyce, and Elizabeth who married William Hall, the administrator of Henry’s will. It was this Henry Dale, along with his son-in-law, who coordinated gunpowder from London to the militia in the shires in 1586.
Third eldest son, Matthew DaleSon Matthew Dale Junior was a member of Middle Temple and a distinguished member of the legal profession as a judge in the Guildhall. His coat-of-arms was sketched on the Matthew Dale pedigree in the London Genealogical Society, and the notes confirmed he was the third son and that the birds were falcons. However, according to The General Armory by Sir Bernard Burke in 1884, he was very specific in stating that the coat-of-arms of Matthew Dale of London was three cranes rising on a chevron. Burke went on to mention that the coat-of-arms of Dale of Brentwood was three falcons rising, legged and belled. Brentwood is in Essex and the next major town past Cooke’s Gidea Hall. One of the four overseers of Thomas Dale’s will was William Cooke, grandson of Sir Anthony Cooke of Gidea Hall. William Cooke’s cousin was Margaret Dakin who married Thomas Sydney of Hamby’s Grange.In Burke’s, we also found mention of a Matthew Dale of Greenwood Hall of the Parish of Stoke in Essex, who died May 5, 1614 and was buried in Dublin at Saint Andrew’s Church in Dublin. There is no present day Parish of Stoke in Essex or a Greenwood Hall that we could identify and locate relative to Brentwood. It is interesting that 1614 was the date of death of Matthew Dale Junior of London and the Matthew Dale who was buried at Saint Andrews Church in Dublin. On February 10, 1597 the Middle Temple notes mentioned Thomas Dale, son of Matthew Dale, Esquire, was a Master of the Bench and heir apparent. But on April 4, 1598 it was noted that Valentine Dale, apprentice of law and Master of the Bench was heir apparent, suggesting that perhaps Thomas Dale had died, or been disinherited. Then in 1614, it was noted that Matthew Dale was heir apparent and assigned to his father��s chamber. Son Valentine Dale was born in 1549 and died in 1598 and not to be confused with Dr. Valentine Dale who died in 1589.Some of Matthew’s legal credits may be confused with Matthew Dale, nephew of Dr. Valentine Dale of Tydworth who died in 1589. Son Matthew Dale was a judge of the Guildhall, of the Middle Temple, and of the Inner Temple where his son occupied the chamber of his distinguished uncle, William Roswell, Solicitor General to Queen Elizabeth. Matthew’s daughter Elizabeth Dale married a William [sometimes shown as Robert] Parker. Matthew’s wife was shown as Margaret Cooke, daughter of a William Cooke of London who died in 161_.
Cousins ROBERT and ROGER DaleIn his1549 will, Matthew Dale of London mentioned his ‘cousin Elizabeth Dale, my brother William’s daughter.’ So when he mentioned ���Cousins” Robert Dale and Roger Dale, I believe he means they are the sons of an unmentioned brother.I assumed that Robert Dale was most likely the same person mentioned in the 1521 testimony of Matthew Dale’s brother-in-law, Peter Chapman who claimed that ‘Robert Dale of Dauley was the son of [unreadable] Dale of Westerdale and the father of Robert Dale and Thomas Dale.’
Dawley near Telford - Very Important to the Dale PedigreeLike Swarby in Lincolnshire, the Lords of the Manor of Dawley were the Arundels, the same Thomas Arundel of Wardour who was executed for his participation in the previously discussed ‘Dudley Conspiracy.’ Thomas Arundel’s nephew was Lt. Francis Willoughby, the long -time second-in-command to Governor Thomas Dale. Thomas Arundel was married to the sister of Henry Wriothsley, 3rd Southampton. Wriothsley and Throckmorton were overseers of the will of Governor Dale, as was Thomas Smythe, son of ‘Very friend Customer Smythe’ mentioned in the will of William Dale in 1559. The fourth overseer was William Cooke, cousin by marriage with Margaret Dakin!The lord of the Manor of Dawley at the time of Governor Dale was Captain Basil Brooke, a 1598 captain in Ireland, whose son married the daughter of Admiral William Wynter’s nephew, Captain John Wynter. William Dale of Brigstock had been accused by Sergeant (Basil) Brookes of stealing deer from Cecil’s ‘Little Park’ in Brigstock, and Dale explained that he had been advised by Lord John Mordaunt who said he had the permission of the King. Lord Mordaunt’s sister was married to Basil Brooke. Brooke was involved after Ireland in managing the King’s ironworks in Saint Briavels. Brooke then built the first cementation furnace at Madeley near Dawley where Heighley Castle was located. Hayward’s daughter married Sir John Thynne, who was the steward of Edward Seymour, the victim of Dudley’s conspiracy, and Thynne sold Kempsey to the grandfather of John Bucke. Henry VIII sold another manor near Dawley to Rowland Hayward, brother-in-law to Thomas Smythe who was Governor Dale’s boss and overseer of the Dale’s will. Customer Smythe was shipping wine via Bristol with Thomas Dale on the ‘Mary Christopher.’ Again, from another point of view, this strongly suggests that Matthew Dale and the Dales of Dawley were kin, and the Cousin Robert Dale mentioned in the 1549 will of Matthew was the father of Thomas and Robert Dale. Therefore, Robert’s father from Westerdale was a brother to William Dale, Major of Bristol.

atthew Dale of London & Bristol, Third Son of William of BristolMatthew Dale is the best recorded and was a very wealthy haberdasher listed in the 1568 Visitation of London as of Bristol and London. The fact that Matthew Dale was not mentioned as an executor of his father���s will most likely indicated that he was probably younger than his brothers, Thomas and William. I mentioned Matthew previously because he was an immediate neighbor of John Dale, the Master Chef of Henry VIII.Matthew married Margaret Chapman of nearby Bath - her brother was the famous soldier, Peter Chapman of Bath, both children of Thomas Chapman, clothier of Bath. Peter Chapman’s other sister married Thomas Bradley, an official in Louthe in Lincolnshire, the center of my Dale research, and her son John Bradley was a captain of Pikemen for Sir Francis Vere. Francis was the older brother of Horace Vere with whom Governor Dale fought in the Low Countries.The mother of John Bradley Sr. was Frances, daughter of John Fairfax of Swarby and presumably parents of William Fairfax of Swarby who married ‘Cousin Elizabeth Kelke’ mentioned in the 1559 will of William Dale of London, son of Matthew Dale. Swarby was only four miles from Sleaford, center of the Pilgrimage of Grace, and it was then held, along with Aswarby, by her father Robert Carr. Charles Brandon took over Swarby and shortly after Christopher Kelke, her second husband, was Lord of the Manor and William Fairfax, her first husband, held the avowson. Elizabeth’s brother George Carr married Mary Sutton who then married Bartholomew Armyn from the same family that once held Aswarby. Bartholomew Armyn sponsored Thomas Dale as vicar at Lenton Manor where Armyn resided and John Bucke held ‘Hamby Grange’ at Lenton. Buck was the Muster Master for Peregrine Bertie, Lord Willoughby, who was a half-brother to the children of Charles Brandon.Interestingly, Swarby had been held by the Arundel family until Thomas Arundel was attainted for his role in toppling Edward Seymour. Thomas Arundel was executed at the same time as Michael Stanhope apparently for their conspiracy to depose John Dudley, Earl Warwick. Arundel and Stanhope were made to confess. Was Dudley was trying to clear the decks of some of his fellow conspirators so he would have to dispense with fewer estates, or rid the proof that he had secretly fermented the rebellions?In 1521, Peter Chapman gave testimony that he was the brother-in-law of Matthew Dale of London and Bristol in testimony confirming the death of a ‘Robert Dale of Dauley, son of [___] Dale of Westerdale, and father of Robert and Thomas Dale.’ Unfortunately, we could not decipher the name of Robert’s father in Westerdale but it does link the families between Bristol and Westerdale in Yorkshire.

Arthur Dakin of Chelmorton held significant property as well centered a few miles away at Hackness.Matthew Dale was to be buried in the church of Saint Mary Magdalene in London and he mentioned sons Henry Dale, James Dale, John Dale, Matthew Dale, and his heir William Dale, as well as Henry Wyatt, his sister’s son. Matthew mentioned daughter Mary Marlar, wife of a successful tradesman and Roanoke voyage investor, and finally, he mentioned son-in-law Gregory Esham. The will of Matthew Dale was dated July 20, 1549, proven 1550.Will of Matthew Dale, of the city of London, haberdasher dated 20 July 1549.

Eldest Son & heir, William DaleSon William Dale (will August 26, 1559) was the eldest son and heir of the haberdashery business and the warehouse adjoining the residence of his father. His will was executed November 28, 1559, and it may be the most significant will in our research [P.C.C. 5q Channay] and we will refer to it multiple times. William mentioned brother-in-law Walter Marlar, Brother Henry Dale, Cousin Elizabeth Kelke, Brother-in-law William Roswell, and Customer Thomas Smythe of the Port of London. It was Smythe’s father, John Smythe, who was shipping merchandise on the ship of Matthew’s brother Thomas Dale of Bristol. Customer Smythe’s son was not only Governor Dale’s boss, but also an overseer of Governor Dale’s will. Note he makes no mention of a wife or children.Will of William Dale, citizen and haberdasher of London, dated 26 August 1559.

Gregory Esham was in the export of wool and very successful; his small company paid 5% of all the export tax paid in England one of those years. Secondly, she was married to William Roswell of Ford Abbey, the Queen’s solicitor.

Son Henry DaleHenry Dale, haberdasher of London on Lombard Street, was mentioned in his brother’s will in 1559 and again in 1566. In the visitation, he was listed as of Bristol. Henry married Emerie, daughter of Robert Cordell of London, son of Thomas Cordell of Long Meadow. Henry Dale of Lombard Street apparently lived until 1590 and had three daughters: Ann, Alyce, and Elizabeth who married William Hall, the administrator of Henry’s will. It was this Henry Dale, along with his son-in-law, who coordinated gunpowder from London to the militia in the shires in 1586.
Third eldest son, Matthew DaleSon Matthew Dale Junior was a member of Middle Temple and a distinguished member of the legal profession as a judge in the Guildhall. His coat-of-arms was sketched on the Matthew Dale pedigree in the London Genealogical Society, and the notes confirmed he was the third son and that the birds were falcons. However, according to The General Armory by Sir Bernard Burke in 1884, he was very specific in stating that the coat-of-arms of Matthew Dale of London was three cranes rising on a chevron. Burke went on to mention that the coat-of-arms of Dale of Brentwood was three falcons rising, legged and belled. Brentwood is in Essex and the next major town past Cooke’s Gidea Hall. One of the four overseers of Thomas Dale’s will was William Cooke, grandson of Sir Anthony Cooke of Gidea Hall. William Cooke’s cousin was Margaret Dakin who married Thomas Sydney of Hamby’s Grange.In Burke’s, we also found mention of a Matthew Dale of Greenwood Hall of the Parish of Stoke in Essex, who died May 5, 1614 and was buried in Dublin at Saint Andrew’s Church in Dublin. There is no present day Parish of Stoke in Essex or a Greenwood Hall that we could identify and locate relative to Brentwood. It is interesting that 1614 was the date of death of Matthew Dale Junior of London and the Matthew Dale who was buried at Saint Andrews Church in Dublin. On February 10, 1597 the Middle Temple notes mentioned Thomas Dale, son of Matthew Dale, Esquire, was a Master of the Bench and heir apparent. But on April 4, 1598 it was noted that Valentine Dale, apprentice of law and Master of the Bench was heir apparent, suggesting that perhaps Thomas Dale had died, or been disinherited. Then in 1614, it was noted that Matthew Dale was heir apparent and assigned to his father��s chamber. Son Valentine Dale was born in 1549 and died in 1598 and not to be confused with Dr. Valentine Dale who died in 1589.Some of Matthew’s legal credits may be confused with Matthew Dale, nephew of Dr. Valentine Dale of Tydworth who died in 1589. Son Matthew Dale was a judge of the Guildhall, of the Middle Temple, and of the Inner Temple where his son occupied the chamber of his distinguished uncle, William Roswell, Solicitor General to Queen Elizabeth. Matthew’s daughter Elizabeth Dale married a William [sometimes shown as Robert] Parker. Matthew’s wife was shown as Margaret Cooke, daughter of a William Cooke of London who died in 161_.
Cousins ROBERT and ROGER DaleIn his1549 will, Matthew Dale of London mentioned his ‘cousin Elizabeth Dale, my brother William’s daughter.’ So when he mentioned ���Cousins” Robert Dale and Roger Dale, I believe he means they are the sons of an unmentioned brother.I assumed that Robert Dale was most likely the same person mentioned in the 1521 testimony of Matthew Dale’s brother-in-law, Peter Chapman who claimed that ‘Robert Dale of Dauley was the son of [unreadable] Dale of Westerdale and the father of Robert Dale and Thomas Dale.’
Dawley near Telford – Very Important to the Dale PedigreeLike Swarby in Lincolnshire, the Lords of the Manor of Dawley were the Arundels, the same Thomas Arundel of Wardour who was executed for his participation in the previously discussed ‘Dudley Conspiracy.’ Thomas Arundel’s nephew was Lt. Francis Willoughby, the long -time second-in-command to Governor Thomas Dale. Thomas Arundel was married to the sister of Henry Wriothsley, 3rd Southampton. Wriothsley and Throckmorton were overseers of the will of Governor Dale, as was Thomas Smythe, son of ‘Very friend Customer Smythe’ mentioned in the will of William Dale in 1559. The fourth overseer was William Cooke, cousin by marriage with Margaret Dakin!The lord of the Manor of Dawley at the time of Governor Dale was Captain Basil Brooke, a 1598 captain in Ireland, whose son married the daughter of Admiral William Wynter’s nephew, Captain John Wynter. William Dale of Brigstock had been accused by Sergeant (Basil) Brookes of stealing deer from Cecil’s ‘Little Park’ in Brigstock, and Dale explained that he had been advised by Lord John Mordaunt who said he had the permission of the King. Lord Mordaunt’s sister was married to Basil Brooke. Brooke was involved after Ireland in managing the King’s ironworks in Saint Briavels. Brooke then built the first cementation furnace at Madeley near Dawley where Heighley Castle was located. Hayward’s daughter married Sir John Thynne, who was the steward of Edward Seymour, the victim of Dudley’s conspiracy, and Thynne sold Kempsey to the grandfather of John Bucke. Henry VIII sold another manor near Dawley to Rowland Hayward, brother-in-law to Thomas Smythe who was Governor Dale’s boss and overseer of the Dale’s will. Customer Smythe was shipping wine via Bristol with Thomas Dale on the ‘Mary Christopher.’ Again, from another point of view, this strongly suggests that Matthew Dale and the Dales of Dawley were kin, and the Cousin Robert Dale mentioned in the 1549 will of Matthew was the father of Thomas and Robert Dale. Therefore, Robert’s father from Westerdale was a brother to William Dale, Major of Bristol.

Matthew Dale of London & Bristol, Third Son of William of BristolMatthew Dale is the best recorded and was a very wealthy haberdasher listed in the 1568 Visitation of London as of Bristol and London. The fact that Matthew Dale was not mentioned as an executor of his father���s will most likely indicated that he was probably younger than his brothers, Thomas and William. I mentioned Matthew previously because he was an immediate neighbor of John Dale, the Master Chef of Henry VIII.Matthew married Margaret Chapman of nearby Bath - her brother was the famous soldier, Peter Chapman of Bath, both children of Thomas Chapman, clothier of Bath. Peter Chapman’s other sister married Thomas Bradley, an official in Louthe in Lincolnshire, the center of my Dale research, and her son John Bradley was a captain of Pikemen for Sir Francis Vere. Francis was the older brother of Horace Vere with whom Governor Dale fought in the Low Countries.The mother of John Bradley Sr. was Frances, daughter of John Fairfax of Swarby and presumably parents of William Fairfax of Swarby who married ‘Cousin Elizabeth Kelke’ mentioned in the 1559 will of William Dale of London, son of Matthew Dale. Swarby was only four miles from Sleaford, center of the Pilgrimage of Grace, and it was then held, along with Aswarby, by her father Robert Carr. Charles Brandon took over Swarby and shortly after Christopher Kelke, her second husband, was Lord of the Manor and William Fairfax, her first husband, held the avowson. Elizabeth’s brother George Carr married Mary Sutton who then married Bartholomew Armyn from the same family that once held Aswarby. Bartholomew Armyn sponsored Thomas Dale as vicar at Lenton Manor where Armyn resided and John Bucke held ‘Hamby Grange’ at Lenton. Buck was the Muster Master for Peregrine Bertie, Lord Willoughby, who was a half-brother to the children of Charles Brandon.Interestingly, Swarby had been held by the Arundel family until Thomas Arundel was attainted for his role in toppling Edward Seymour. Thomas Arundel was executed at the same time as Michael Stanhope apparently for their conspiracy to depose John Dudley, Earl Warwick. Arundel and Stanhope were made to confess. Was Dudley was trying to clear the decks of some of his fellow conspirators so he would have to dispense with fewer estates, or rid the proof that he had secretly fermented the rebellions?In 1521, Peter Chapman gave testimony that he was the brother-in-law of Matthew Dale of London and Bristol in testimony confirming the death of a ‘Robert Dale of Dauley, son of [___] Dale of Westerdale, and father of Robert and Thomas Dale.’ Unfortunately, we could not decipher the name of Robert’s father in Westerdale but it does link the families between Bristol and Westerdale in Yorkshire. A. G. Dale wrote: “Leonard Dale settled in Westerdale, near Stokesly in Yorkshire, which formed part of the Duchy of Lancaster.” It is significant that Robert Pursglove, who ordained Thomas Dale and Robert Dale in Lincolnshire adjacent to Thomas Dale of Alford, resided at Guisborough only twelve miles from Westerdale! Arthur Dakin of Chelmorton held significant property as well centered a few miles away at Hackness.Matthew Dale was to be buried in the church of Saint Mary Magdalene in London and he mentioned sons Henry Dale, James Dale, John Dale, Matthew Dale, and his heir William Dale, as well as Henry Wyatt, his sister’s son. Matthew mentioned daughter Mary Marlar, wife of a successful tradesman and Roanoke voyage investor, and finally, he mentioned son-in-law Gregory Esham. The will of Matthew Dale was dated July 20, 1549, proven 1550.Will of Matthew Dale, of the city of London, haberdasher dated 20 July 1549. To be buried in the parish church of St Mary Magdalene, Milk Street, without lights or Vainglory. Half my goods to my sons Henry, James, John, and Matthew equally, and the other half to my son and heir William. My son William Dale to be executor and to have the warehouse adjoining my dwelling in the said parish, and to his heirs, and in default to my other sons, and in default to my daughter Mary Marler and her heirs, and in default to my cousin Robert Dale, and in default to Henry Wyott, my sister’s son, and in default the premises to be sold and the money given to the poor. I appoint as overseers my sons in law Walter Marler and Gregory Isham, and to each of their wives I give a black gown. To my cousin Elizabeth Dale, my brother William’s daughter a black gown. To twelve poor men and women a black gown apiece. To Roger Dale my cousin ... To my company of haberdashers .... I make and end and seal my last will 5 April 1550. Proved 8 May 1550 by William Dale the executor.
Eldest Son & heir, William DaleSon William Dale (will August 26, 1559) was the eldest son and heir of the haberdashery business and the warehouse adjoining the residence of his father. His will was executed November 28, 1559, and it may be the most significant will in our research [P.C.C. 5q Channay] and we will refer to it multiple times. William mentioned brother-in-law Walter Marlar, Brother Henry Dale, Cousin Elizabeth Kelke, Brother-in-law William Roswell, and Customer Thomas Smythe of the Port of London. It was Smythe’s father, John Smythe, who was shipping merchandise on the ship of Matthew’s brother Thomas Dale of Bristol. Customer Smythe’s son was not only Governor Dale’s boss, but also an overseer of Governor Dale’s will. Note he makes no mention of a wife or children.Will of William Dale, citizen and haberdasher of London, dated 26 August 1559. To my brother William Rosewell , the Queen’s Solicitor General a gold ring worth , 3 and to my sister his wife the great guilt cup. To Walter Marler three gilt goblets. To my cousin Elizabeth Kelke one of my gold pots. To my cousin Thomas Avery and his wife each a ring of gold of £3. I release to my Uncle Peter Chapman all his debts. Residue to my brother Henry Dale, haberdasher, and he to be executor. Very friends Thomas Smythe, Customer of the Port of London and his wife…, Very Friends Thomas Blanke the younger and his wife, Rd. Blanke and his wife, and William Charringtor, haberdasher. 28 November 1559.
Second eldest son, John Dale of WareSon John Dale was mentioned as the second son, also a haberdasher of London, and here the records conflict. Some notes claim he was a member of Saint Mary’s Magdalene and married Elizabeth Lane in 1567 at Saint Martins in the Field, the same church where Governor Thomas Dale later married his wife in 1611. Most notes claim she was the daughter of” William Lane of London, Grocer” while the old pedigree chart in the Dale portfolio indicates that she was engaged to William Lane, Grocer. Regardless if she was the daughter or wife of William Lane, this William Lane, we believe, was father of the captain of the “John Evangelist” that sailed with Drake in the 1580s. Ralph Lane, Governor of Roanoke, was his brother and they once hailed from Orlingbury in Northamptonshire. We read that Lane sold Orlingbury Manor to William Tofte whose daughter married Roger Dale (Died 1602) of Collyweston & Tixover, son of Robert Dale of Hawkesley.It is my opinion only, that this was the same John Dale, wife Elizabeth (Lane), who lived across the alley from Matthew Dale of London and was the flamboyant Master Chef of King Henry VIII. Diplomats wrote to their countries about this fellow who changed into a new top fashion suit of clothing between each course of the meal. But if that is the case, he died about 1547!Captain William Lane married Anne Esham, daughter of John Esham and Anne Fitzwilliam Esham, the daughter of the Lord Deputy of Ireland, William Fitzwilliam and his wife Agnes Sydney, sister of Henry Sydney whose son Thomas Sydney of Hamby’s Grange married Margaret Dakin, widow of Walter Devereux. The pedigree chart indicates only one son, John Dale of Clavering, and that he was born in 1582, curiously, some fifteen years after John Dale and Elizabeth were reported married. No doubt this is in error unless John Dale of Ware was a different kinsman. John Dale was listed in the Cotton Collin genealogies as John Dale of Ware which earlier had been passed by Richard Andrews of Freefolk to John Dale of South Tydworth, possibly the father of John Dale the master chef.
Matthew’s daughter Elizabeth Dale Esham RosewellElizabeth Dale was first married to Gregory Esham (Isham) at Saint Pancreas on December 16, 1548, and he was buried at Braunston on the Northamptonshire- Rutland border on September 6, 1558. Gregory Esham was in the export of wool and very successful; his small company paid 5% of all the export tax paid in England one of those years. Secondly, she was married to William Roswell of Ford Abbey, the Queen’s solicitor. Roswell died in 1566 and left a lengthy will indicating that his manors were in Devon and Somerset.His brother, Gyles Esham, was the Steward to the 2nd Earl of Bedford, Francis Russell, the Marian Exile whose daughter married Ambrose Dudley, and his other daughter was the mother-in-law of Margaret Dakins. You might remember that it was his father John Russell who we met at Ludgershall Castle next to John Dale at South Tydworth. John Russell was a successful wine and shipping merchant. It was the servant of Francis Russell, Richard Tremayle, who was a refuge traitor along with John DALLE!Both father and son, John and Francis Russell, participated in Boulogne in 1544. Francis was godfather to the famous Sir Francis Drake. At the first of Mary’s reign he lived in exile, and later was accused of participation in Wyatt’s rebellion.
Daughter Mary Dale MarlarMary Dale married at Saint Antoine on May 7, 1545 merchant Walter Marlar who was an investor in the Watts Syndicate of exploration ships including the “Hopewell”, “Moonshine”, “Little John”, and “John Evangelist”, captained by William Lane during the Drake voyages.
Son James Dale James Dale prepared his will on July 10, 1551 and mentioned his brothers John and Matthew, Uncle Peter Chapman, Sister Mary and her husband Walter Marlar, Brothers William and Henry Dale, and brother-in-law Gregory Esham.
Son Henry DaleHenry Dale, haberdasher of London on Lombard Street, was mentioned in his brother’s will in 1559 and again in 1566. In the visitation, he was listed as of Bristol. Henry married Emerie, daughter of Robert Cordell of London, son of Thomas Cordell of Long Meadow. Henry Dale of Lombard Street apparently lived until 1590 and had three daughters: Ann, Alyce, and Elizabeth who married William Hall, the administrator of Henry’s will. It was this Henry Dale, along with his son-in-law, who coordinated gunpowder from London to the militia in the shires in 1586.
Third eldest son, Matthew DaleSon Matthew Dale Junior was a member of Middle Temple and a distinguished member of the legal profession as a judge in the Guildhall. His coat-of-arms was sketched on the Matthew Dale pedigree in the London Genealogical Society, and the notes confirmed he was the third son and that the birds were falcons. However, according to The General Armory by Sir Bernard Burke in 1884, he was very specific in stating that the coat-of-arms of Matthew Dale of London was three cranes rising on a chevron. Burke went on to mention that the coat-of-arms of Dale of Brentwood was three falcons rising, legged and belled. Brentwood is in Essex and the next major town past Cooke’s Gidea Hall. One of the four overseers of Thomas Dale’s will was William Cooke, grandson of Sir Anthony Cooke of Gidea Hall. William Cooke’s cousin was Margaret Dakin who married Thomas Sydney of Hamby’s Grange.In Burke’s, we also found mention of a Matthew Dale of Greenwood Hall of the Parish of Stoke in Essex, who died May 5, 1614 and was buried in Dublin at Saint Andrew’s Church in Dublin. There is no present day Parish of Stoke in Essex or a Greenwood Hall that we could identify and locate relative to Brentwood. It is interesting that 1614 was the date of death of Matthew Dale Junior of London and the Matthew Dale who was buried at Saint Andrews Church in Dublin. On February 10, 1597 the Middle Temple notes mentioned Thomas Dale, son of Matthew Dale, Esquire, was a Master of the Bench and heir apparent. But on April 4, 1598 it was noted that Valentine Dale, apprentice of law and Master of the Bench was heir apparent, suggesting that perhaps Thomas Dale had died, or been disinherited. Then in 1614, it was noted that Matthew Dale was heir apparent and assigned to his father��s chamber. Son Valentine Dale was born in 1549 and died in 1598 and not to be confused with Dr. Valentine Dale who died in 1589.Some of Matthew’s legal credits may be confused with Matthew Dale, nephew of Dr. Valentine Dale of Tydworth who died in 1589. Son Matthew Dale was a judge of the Guildhall, of the Middle Temple, and of the Inner Temple where his son occupied the chamber of his distinguished uncle, William Roswell, Solicitor General to Queen Elizabeth. Matthew’s daughter Elizabeth Dale married a William [sometimes shown as Robert] Parker. Matthew’s wife was shown as Margaret Cooke, daughter of a William Cooke of London who died in 161_.
Cousins ROBERT and ROGER DaleIn his1549 will, Matthew Dale of London mentioned his ‘cousin Elizabeth Dale, my brother William’s daughter.’ So when he mentioned ���Cousins” Robert Dale and Roger Dale, I believe he means they are the sons of an unmentioned brother.I assumed that Robert Dale was most likely the same person mentioned in the 1521 testimony of Matthew Dale’s brother-in-law, Peter Chapman who claimed that ‘Robert Dale of Dauley was the son of [unreadable] Dale of Westerdale and the father of Robert Dale and Thomas Dale.’
Dawley near Telford – Very Important to the Dale PedigreeLike Swarby in Lincolnshire, the Lords of the Manor of Dawley were the Arundels, the same Thomas Arundel of Wardour who was executed for his participation in the previously discussed ‘Dudley Conspiracy.’ Thomas Arundel’s nephew was Lt. Francis Willoughby, the long -time second-in-command to Governor Thomas Dale. Thomas Arundel was married to the sister of Henry Wriothsley, 3rd Southampton. Wriothsley and Throckmorton were overseers of the will of Governor Dale, as was Thomas Smythe, son of ‘Very friend Customer Smythe’ mentioned in the will of William Dale in 1559. The fourth overseer was William Cooke, cousin by marriage with Margaret Dakin!The lord of the Manor of Dawley at the time of Governor Dale was Captain Basil Brooke, a 1598 captain in Ireland, whose son married the daughter of Admiral William Wynter’s nephew, Captain John Wynter. William Dale of Brigstock had been accused by Sergeant (Basil) Brookes of stealing deer from Cecil’s ‘Little Park’ in Brigstock, and Dale explained that he had been advised by Lord John Mordaunt who said he had the permission of the King. Lord Mordaunt’s sister was married to Basil Brooke. Brooke was involved after Ireland in managing the King’s ironworks in Saint Briavels. Brooke then built the first cementation furnace at Madeley near Dawley where Heighley Castle was located. Hayward’s daughter married Sir John Thynne, who was the steward of Edward Seymour, the victim of Dudley’s conspiracy, and Thynne sold Kempsey to the grandfather of John Bucke. Henry VIII sold another manor near Dawley to Rowland Hayward, brother-in-law to Thomas Smythe who was Governor Dale’s boss and overseer of the Dale’s will. Customer Smythe was shipping wine via Bristol with Thomas Dale on the ‘Mary Christopher.’ Again, from another point of view, this strongly suggests that Matthew Dale and the Dales of Dawley were kin, and the Cousin Robert Dale mentioned in the 1549 will of Matthew was the father of Thomas and Robert Dale. Therefore, Robert’s father from Westerdale was a brother to William Dale, Major of Bristol.
