26. In the pedigree of Darell, Vis. of Berks, C. 18, he is distinctly called Judge 

 of the King's Bench. There was, however, no such Judge ; but there was a 

 Sir Thomas Chamberlain, who was a Puisne Judge of the Common Pleas, and 

 Chief Justice of Chester, and described as of Wickham Castle, Co. Oxon, C. 

 29. f. 134. Coll. Arm. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Sir George Fermor 

 of Easton Neston, and relict of Sir William Stafford of Blatherwick, Co. 

 Northampton. His will was proved in 1627, and besides three sons, he had 

 only one daughter, Elizabeth. His second wife was Elizabeth, Lady Berkley. 

 With the above conflicting facts, I must leave the question of his identity an 

 open one. 



27. Her father is stigmatised as "ignobilis." It would appear, from the Kint- 

 bury Pvegister, that two daughters, twins, were buried in 1632, one, Anne, 

 Oct. 6, the other, Jane, Oct. 26. 



28. This name occurs in the Visitation, a singular one for a male. That these 

 sons died young is manifest ; the daughters being described as coheirs, and 

 inheriting their father's property. In the Register, March 8, 1644, is the 

 entry of the burial of " Mr. John Darell, Squire." It may be presumed one 

 of the sons. 



29. There is an illiterate entry in the Register of Kintbury, of what may be 

 inferred as his burial. "Dec. 30, 1631. Mr. Joard Bromley was buried." 

 Accorduig to Collins, they left two sons, Thomas and Alexander. In a letter 

 written by Darell to his cousin, Reynold Scriven, dated June 17, 1583, he 

 speaks of " Mr. Harry Bromley that hath married my kinswoman." 



30. He was 45 in 1664, see Vis., C. 12. f. 96. They left issue. Several of 

 their children were baptized at Kintbury. He was son of Francis Keate of 

 Lockinge, by Frances, daughter of John Hungerford of Cadenham. 



31. He was 38 in 1664. see Vis. C. 12. f. 128. They left a numerous issue, 

 several children were baptized at Kintbury. Sir John died 1681. Letters of 

 Administration were granted to his eldest son, Henry Elwes. Sir John is 

 described as "late of Hungerford, widower." See also C. 16. f. 128'' CoU. Arm. 

 He was son of Henry Elwes of London, gent., by Elizabeth, daughter of Sir 

 John Gore, Alderman of London. 



C. E. Long. 



H. Bull, Printer, Saint John Street, Devizes.
