In Reply to: Some Thoughts on Edmond-1 Hawes by J. Brandon of 1438

First, a couple corrections to the last posting:

(1) the title should read: "BAPTISM OF EDMOND-1 HAWES'S YOUNGER BROTHER THOMAS ...," not "EDMOND-A HAWES'S YOUNGER BROTHER ..."

(2) the two Ursulas were baptized in 1602 and 1606, not 1602 and 1601.

A SECOND INTERMARRIAGE BETWEEN HAWES AND PORTER DESCENDANTS


Sometimes it is interesting to note marriages within a certain social circle, as they tend to confirm other connections. Page 363 of the 1635 London Visitation shows the marriage of John Hatley "of London, grocer," to Anne, "da. of John Porter of Lamberhurst in Kent, Esqr."

http://books.google.com/books?id=xDIEAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA363&dq=hatley+porter+1635&lr=

The pedigree shows John Hatley as the grandson of a Robert Hatley "of Putenho nigh Bedford." This Robert is almost certainly the same Robert Hatley who was the second husband of Constance (Hawes) Sheppard, widow of Thomas Sheppard, and daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth (Brome) Hawes. _The History of Parliament: House of Commons, 1558-1603_, 2: 275-76, says that Robert Hatley, "of Puttenhoe and Goldington, Beds.," married to "(1) 17 Sept. 1559, Millicent, da. of one Barre, wid. of Thomas Fairclough, s.p.; (2) 8 May 156­4, Constance (d. 1596), da. [sic; recte widow] of Thomas Sheppard of Hockliffe, 1s­. 2da." Thus, the John Hatley who married Anne Porter was quite likely a Hawes descendant by virtue of being a grandson of Constance Hawes by her second marriage to Robert Hatley.

John Porter identified as "of Lamberhurst in Kent" in the Hatley pedigree adduced above (and the father of Anne [Porter] Hatley) was almost certainly the brother of Jane (Porter) Hawes, wife of Edmund Hawes of Solihull, Warwickshire. Their father, Richard Porter (a Member of Parliament in the late 1570s), though usually called "of Bayham," had also been associated with neighboring Frant and Lamberhurst, as his sketch in the _History of Parliament_ series clearly shows. The will of Jane (Porter) Hawes' mother, Jane (Whitfield) (Porter) Quinby, mentions "sons Arthur Bromfield­ Esq., Thomas Porter, John Porter, and daughter Jeane Hawes" (_NEHGR_, 53:12-13).

Hence, this was the second intermarriage of members of the Porter family into the extended family of the Haweses of Warwickshire.
