Sir Wolstan Dixie of Appleby Magna
Sir Wolstan Dixie of Appleby Magna and then Market Bosworth (1576 – 25 July 1630) was founder of the Dixie Grammar School in Market Bosworth.〔Transactions of the London and Middlesex Archæological Society, Vol 2 London and Middlesex Archaeological Society〕
He was great-nephew of the first Sir Wolstan Dixie, Lord mayor of London, who endowed the Dixie Professor of Ecclesiastical History at Cambridge University.
He was knighted by James I of England in 1604, when he was Sir Wolstan Dixie of Appleby Magna. In 1608 he moved to Market Bosworth and commenced work on the original manor house and grammar school. In 1614 he was appointed High Sheriff of Leicestershire and in 1625 the county's representative in Parliament.
Thirty years after his death, in 1660, his son, the then elderly Sir Wolstan Dixie, 1st Baronet was also appointed Sheriff of Leicestershire and created the first of line of the Dixie baronets by Charles II of England when the exiled King returned from France.
