Bayntun was the son of Sir Henry Bayntun of Bromham, Wiltshire, and of his wife Lucy Danvers, a daughter of Sir John Danvers of Dauntsey, Wiltshire, and of the famous Elizabeth Neville. He was baptised at Bremhill on 5 September 1593.〔(John Burke ''A genealogical and heraldic history of the commoners of Great Britain, Volume 4'' )〕 He matriculated at Christ Church, Oxford, on 27 April 1610, aged 17,〔( 'Alumni Oxonienses, 1500-1714:Barrowby-Benn', Alumni Oxonienses 1500-1714: Abannan-Kyte (1891), pp. 79-105.
