Family


woman Margaret Abrahall‏‎ 1)


Notes: Identified as "Of Abrale" in the 1623 Gloucestershire visitation. Outside the Visitations no evidence for this marriage has been identified. The visitation is not reliable for the Baynham family. Margaret does not appear in the conflicting "Abrahall of Abrahall" pedigrees within the same visitation.

It is very possible Margaret did not exist. Or, if she did, that she did not marry Robert!

Married/ Related
to:

man Robert 'ap Eignon' Baynham‏‎ 1) 2)
Died ‎12 Sep 1436 2)

Notes: The 1623 Gloucestershire visitation extends Robert's ancestry by several generations:

Robert being son of John ap Eignon and Elizabeth Unknown (who married thrice)
John ap Eignon being son of Thomas ap Eignon (spouse unknown)
Thomas ap Eignon being son of Thomas ap Eignon (spouse unknown)
Thomas ap Eignon being son of Raffe ap Eignon and "Joane d. and coheir of Sr Willm Deane of Greate Deane in com. Gloster."

While these generations may be accurate they have not been included here due to lack of primary evidence. The Baynham pedigree contains significant errors at more recent generations so limited reliability can be placed on it for these early generations. The "ap Eignon" (or "ap Eynon" as appears elsewhere) epithet seems to have been used the family until this Robert's generation.

The Victoria County History article for Mitcheldean aligns reasonably closely to the above and provides additional "of Dean" ancestors back to the 12th century. Again, the VCH has not been trusted here as I have not had the opportunity to validate the cited sources.
