Humphrey Swynnerton
Humphrey Swynnerton (ca. 15161562) was a Staffordshire landowner, a Member of the English Parliament and an Elizabethan recusant.
==Background and early life==
Swynnerton's father was Thomas Swynnerton of Swynnerton Hall and Hilton Hall, Staffordshire. His mother was Alice Stanley, daughter of Sir Humphrey Stanley of Pipe Ridware and Clifton Campville.〔(The History of Parliament: Members 1509–1558 – SWYNNERTON, Humphrey (Author: A. D.K. Hawkyard) )〕 Both his parents were from landed gentry families based in the southern half of Staffordshire. Of his grandparents, the most distinguished was Sir Humphrey Stanley, who was knighted by Henry VII after the Battle of Bosworth and made a banneret after the Battle of Stoke Field. A close associate of the king, he is buried in Westminster Abbey.〔(Westminster Abbey: commentary on brass to Sir Humphrey Stanley )〕
In 1537, Swynnerton became bailiff of the Black Ladies estate, near Brewood.〔 It had been a small Benedictine nunnery, dissolved by the Dissolution of the Lesser Monasteries Act. The new owner was Thomas Giffard, who outmanoeuvred Edward Littleton of Pillaton Hall to get it. Littleton had been married to Helen Swynnerton, Humphrey's aunt. Soon he made a family link to the Giffards too: by 1540 he had married Thomas's sister, Cassandra.
