Biography

"MARGARET HAWTEN... married at Swalcliffe, Oxfordshire 13 May 1583 HENRY HOWELL, of Westbury (in Marsh Gibbon), Buckinghamshire, younger son of William Howell, of Westbury (in Marsh Gibbon) and Wingrave, Buckinghamshire, by his 2nd wife, Anne Eyre. [1]He was baptized at Wingrave, Buckinghamshire 13 Dec. 1552. They had four sons, Edward, Gent., Thomas, Anthony, and Henry, and three daughters, Margaret, Isabel, and Jane. He was heir in 1575 to his older brother, John Howell, by which inherited the manor of Westbury (in Marsh Gibbon), Buckinghamshire. The masters of the Cooks Company trumped up an “odious suit” and put a tenant of their own in the manor; Henry Howell subsequently sued to eject the tenant and won. In 1587 the manor of Westbury (in Marsh Gibbon), Buckinghamshire was settled on Henry and his wife, Margaret, for the term of their lives, with reversion to their heirs male. HENRY HOWELL died at Marsh Gibbon, Buckinghamshire 12 July 1625."[2]
