After posting this, I spent all night tracing my ancestors. I found them, in Bohemia.

Yesterday I read a movie is coming out about Downton Abbey. Today, I discovered Bayhall, where my Culpeper ancestors lived. They had more manors than any other British family. Thomas Culpeper lost his head over a Queen. They made a movie about their love affair. I have yet to determine if Thomas was living at Bayhall when he gave it all up, for love. They say Bayhall is haunted. By……whom? Bayhall, burned down. We can restore it. We can go there – with love!
Today I read a post from my dear and late friend, Ben Toney, who is kin to Fair Rosamond Clifford, and the gentry that lived at Bayhall. He states how much he loves doing genealogies. The same can be said for Jimmy Rosamond and myself. We are in our seventies, and, we will leave our Rosamond Family Tree RESEARCH behind. There is no end to what can be discovered.

Two years ago, after watching most of the reruns of ‘Downton Abbey’ I began doing floorplans for my manor – as a hobby! I am a poor person, as are most people who are addicted to this series where we see a Rosamund. She has no children. We can come in with so many roles. You can be the Lord of a Manor, or, the forester who hauls wood to Bayhall. Does that young man train greyhounds? Who is milking those cows? Perhaps this would work as a facebook group?
http://www.culpepperconnections.com/archives/uk/places/manors.htm
What I am going to do is make another blog where WE can explore Bayhall, even go and live there in our wondrous imaginations. Let US create an archive, and invite some rich and famous people who are OUR kin, to feel right at home.

In the painting above, there are these brownish Hobbit-like dwellings that I believe is where the servants lived. On the right, we are looking at a formal garden with a fountain and – courting paths? You don’t want a handsome son of the gardener (Heathcliff) espying a fair maiden related to Lewis de Clifford. They must be kept apart.
Ben, Jimmy, and John are related to Shakespeare. Elizabeth Rosemond Taylor, and the Getty family who lived in English estates. We do not have their money, nor do we own a golf course in Scotland. I look at that smoke coming out of that chimney, and I hear cultured people having clever conversations around the hearth.

Thomas Culpeper (c. 1514 – 10 December 1541) was a courtier and close friend of Henry VIII, and related to two of his queens, Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard. He is known to have had many private meetings with Catherine after her marriage, though these may have involved political intrigue. A letter was found written by Queen Catherine and she signed it, “yours as long as life endures.” He blamed the queen, saying he tried to end it, but she was, “dying of love for him”. Under torture, he confessed to adultery, and both were beheaded for treason.
I have chosen my home, and the Lord of Arreton. Here is our story.

“I die a Queen, but I would rather
die the wife of Culpeper.“
(About image above: While the above painting was long thought to be of Catherine Howard, the National Portrait Gallery in London no longer believes this to be true. However, nearly every other image that is reportedly hers is also disputed. So the poor woman not only lost her head to the guillotine, she lost her face. I have heard too many arguments for too long on this, so if you feel you must write me on this topic, please don’t expect a response. / Warren Culpepper)
Thus, it appears, that the lovers, Catherine and Thomas were 6th cousins, once removed.
It is believed by most Culpepper researchers that most American Culpeppers are descended from the Wigsell line, which started with Walter Culpeper of Calais and Wigsell.
Thus, the relationship of these American Culpeppers to Catherine Howard and Thomas Culpeper is as follows:
![]() |
Thomas Culpepper is a first cousin, a dozen or more times removed, and |
![]() |
Catherine Howard is a seventh cousin, a dozen or more times removed. |

“When the television series drew to a close it was our dream to bring the millions of global fans a movie and now, after getting many stars aligned, we are shortly to go into production,” Naeme said of the film via press statement. “Julian’s script charms, thrills and entertains and in Brian Percival’s hands we aim to deliver everything that one would hope for as Downton comes to the big screen.”
Robert’s only sibling and widow of the wealthy Marmaduke Painswick, Rosamund has no children of her own and likes to get involved in the lives of her nieces. It was Rosamund who took a pregnant Edith to Switzerland to conceal her condition and she is much more open-minded than she cares to let on. She and Edith have grown close although her advice can conflicts with Robert and Cora’s leading to clashes.
The posh pad used as the London home of Lady Rosamund Painswick – the Earl of Grantham’s sister, inset – is up for sale.
Thanks to the show’s global success, wealthy fans from the US, China, Russia, the Middle East and Japan are now competing for the opulent mansion.
The house in London’s exclusive Belgravia – which is home to a string of foreign billionaires – would cost a staggering £199,501 in monthly mortgage repayments.

He was “of Wellsbourne, Lincolnshire, gentleman, who was buried in Saint George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, where he presumably was some sort of official, although there is no record of more than his burial there.”
“William Wilson apparently moved from Welbourn to Windsor in Berkshire where he held a position of sufficient importance that he was called gentleman and was buried in the Chapel of Saint George by Windsor Castle.”
He was “‘late of Wellsbourne, Lincolnshire, gent., ‘ who is buried in St. George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle.”
“The father of the Rev. William Wilson of Windsor was, as we have found, a William Wilson of Wellsbourne, In Lincolnshire, who died in Windsor Castle and was buried there in 1587.”

Thanks for replying. I am sorry if I neglected you. Too many mouse holes. I can get waaaay out there! But, I am not alone. We are kin to Ian Fleming via Aileen Getty and Liz Taylor. I am authoring a Bond book, starring Victoria Bond. I am amazed how sturdy the Rosamond women were, and are. They built this Nation. They do not get enough grounded credit, thus I was happy to find the Rosemans of Iowa. I wanted more proof on Moses Morton Rosemond. I hit pay dirt. This is addicting. This morning I hit the mother load. We are kin to Rosamond Clifford, and some famous Reverends.
Thanks for all the work you have done. I am going to put a simple book together on our family that won’t alienate others. However, we may be one of the few, who care.
Best regars

Thomas Bennett (Lord Mayor)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sir Thomas Bennet (1543 – 1627) was an English merchant and Lord Mayor of London in 1603-04.
A leading London mercer, on 7 February 1594, Bennet was elected an Alderman of the City of London for Vintry Ward. He was Sheriff of London for 1594-95 and Master of the Mercers’ Company in 1595-96. He became Master Mercer again in 1602 and, in 1603, Bennet was elected Lord Mayor of London.
Bennet was knighted by King James I on 26 July 1603 and, in 1604, he was elected Alderman of Lime Street Ward, serving until 1612. He was President of the Royal Bethlem and Bridewell Hospitals from 1606 to 1613 and in 1610 became Master Mercer again. In 1612 he transferred as Alderman for Bassishaw Ward which he represented until 1627. He was also President of St Bartholomew’s Hospital from 1623 until his death on 20 February 1627.[1]
His elder surviving son, Sir Simon Bennet was created a baronet upon his death in 1627.[2] His younger son, Richard Bennet and his wife Elizabeth daughter of Sir Matthew Cradock, are ancestors of the Marquesses of Salisbury; Richard Bennet’s widow married secondly Sir Heneage Finch, Speaker of the House of Commons

130. LEE, of Hartwell, Buckinghamshire. Created Baronet, August 16, 1660.
THIS family had flourished long in this county previous to their advancement to the dignity of a Baronet. In a genealogical account drawn up by Browne Willis, it is stated that they are a branch of the Leghs, of High Legh, and Lyme, in Cheshire; and that their immediate ancestor, retiring out of the way of the persecution which that family underwent for taking part with Rich. II. against his usurping successor, settled in Buckinghamshire, early in Henry the Fourth’s reign. Their seat was at Moreton, in the parish of Dinton, adjoining to Hartwell ; and one of the oldest monuments in Dinton church is of William Lee, Esq. and Ann, his wife, which William deceased 9th of October 1486 *. . . They possess Hartwell, by descent, through the families of Hampden, Singleton, Stokes, and Luton, from Alice, daughter and heiress of William Hartwell, of Hartwell, Esq. grandson to Barnabas de Hartwell, to whom this manor had been granted by the crown, early in the 13th century. They resided for five generations and upwards in Moreton, where the ruins of their seat, surrounded by a moat, are still visible.
I, William Lee, aforesaid, who died in October 1486, left issue by Anne, his wife, a son and heir.

origins
From page 96 of Aedes Hartwellianae: Or, Notices of the Manor and Mansion of Hartwell, Volume 1 By William Henry Smyth
“To return to the Lees. Hitherto the course of this family’s descent has been based on a chain of positive facts; but, before we trace the consanguinity marked by heraldic bearings, some degree of inferential testimony must be admitted. This very numerous family is to be distinctly followed in our early > archives as that of Domesday, the Inquisitions, Valuations, Rotuli, and the curious record of royal rights intituled the Testa de Neville; from all of which excerpta have been made and compared. As before stated, the Leghs or Lees were all-powerful in .Cheshire, as those of High Lee, of Lyme, of Ridge, of Begulegh, of Adlington, of Twemlow, and of Booths; but the branching off of the several casts into other counties, was under circumstances the particulars of which are now, perhaps, unattainable. Yet there is evidence that the Lees of Morton withdrew into Buckinghamshire in the early part of Henry the Fourth’s reign, to avoid the persecution to which they were liable in consequence of their manifested attachment to the cause of the unhappy Richard the Second ….”

Thomas Culpeper (c. 1514 – 10 December 1541) was a courtier and close friend of Henry VIII, and related to two of his queens, Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard. He is known to have had many private meetings with Catherine after her marriage, though these may have involved political intrigue. A letter was found written by Queen Catherine and she signed it, “yours as long as life endures.” He blamed the queen, saying he tried to end it, but she was, “dying of love for him”. Under torture, he confessed to adultery, and both were beheaded for treason.
