All About History Books
The Chronicle of Geoffrey le Baker of Swinbroke. Baker was a secular clerk from Swinbroke, now Swinbrook, an Oxfordshire village two miles east of Burford. His Chronicle describes the events of the period 1303-1356: Gaveston, Bannockburn, Boroughbridge, the murder of King Edward II, the Scottish Wars, Sluys, Crécy, the Black Death, Winchelsea and Poitiers. To quote Herbert Bruce 'it possesses a vigorous and characteristic style, and its value for particular events between 1303 and 1356 has been recognised by its editor and by subsequent writers'. The book provides remarkable detail about the events it describes. Baker's text has been augmented with hundreds of notes, including extracts from other contemporary chronicles, such as the Annales Londonienses, Annales Paulini, Murimuth, Lanercost, Avesbury, Guisborough and Froissart to enrich the reader's understanding. The translation takes as its source the 'Chronicon Galfridi le Baker de Swynebroke' published in 1889, edited by Edward Maunde Thompson. Available at Amazon in eBook and Paperback.
On or after 10th October 1668 [his son] John Stonhouse 2nd Baronet (age 29) and [his daughter-in-law] Martha Briggs were married. The license was dated 10th October 1668.
In 1670 George Stonhouse 1st and 3rd Baronet (age 66) was created 1st Baronet Stonhouse of Radley. He was attempting to disinherit his eldest son [his son] George Stonhouse 4th Baronet (age 32), for unknown reasons, by surrendering the original Baronetcy and creating a new one with remainder to his younger sons, and with the precedency of the original creation. The plan failed when his eldest son successfully claimed the original baronetcy, while his younger brother John succeeded in the baronetcy created by the new patent. The two Baronetcies were subsequently combined on the failure of the male line of George Stonhouse 4th Baronet.
On 31st March 1675 George Stonhouse 1st and 3rd Baronet (age 71) died. His son [his son] George (age 37) succeeded 4th Baronet Stonhouse of Radley. His son [his son] John (age 36) succeeded 2nd Baronet Stonhouse of Radley.
