Edward Bayntun : ウィキペディア英語版 | Edward Bayntun
Sir Edward Bayntun (148027 November? 1544), of Bromham, Wiltshire, was a gentleman at the court of Henry VIII of England. He was vice-chamberlain to Anne Boleyn, the King's second wife, and was the brother-in-law of Queen Catherine Howard, Henry VIII's fifth wife. ==Early life== Sir Edward Bayntun was born at Faulston House in Faulston in the county of Wiltshire in 1480. Though medieval accounts record the name "Baynton" as such, the spelling around the Tudor period was "Bayntun." In 1516, Sir Edward inherited the Manors of Bromham and Faulston after the death of his father John Bayntun. He was a soldier and a courtier, and would be a favourite of Henry VIII of England, as well as a champion of religious reform.〔 Though it is uncertain as to whether or not Catherine of Aragon had a vice-chamberlain, the two were said to be friends, and Edward was said to have visited her house often. She had the archway to Bromham House reconstructed as a gift to Sir Edward. "It bears the royal arms of the Tudors beneath the oriel window in the upper storey, and in the spandrels of the arch forming the gateway, those of Sir Edward Bayntun, the original builder and his first wife Elizabeth Sulliard, the daughter of Sir John Sulliard, Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas. Today this beautiful landmark is known to locals as Spye Arch."〔 The King granted Sir Edward large tracts of lands, making him one of the largest landowners in Wiltshire. Among these were many stewardships including the stewardship of Salisbury for which Cardinal Wolsey recommended him.〔 He was Member of Parliament for Wiltshire in 1529, and again in 1539; and in 1542 for Wilton.
