sometime Warden of New College, Oxford, administered to her 

 estate 7th January following (Col. Chester, as above). Her memorial 

 inscription, will, it is stated, he found in Grale's " Antiquitates 

 Winton." 



Sir William Calley was succeeded in the representation of the 

 family hy his brother, Oliver Calley, who married, settlement dated 

 23rd September, 1667, Mary, daughter of John Scott, of Bromham, 

 co. Wilts (Fed.) In 1611 Sir William Dan vers sold land in 

 Hilmarton and Calne to John Scott, possibly the same man {Hist. 

 Danvers Family, p. 542). Mr. Eichard Mullings has left the 

 following notes with regard to the lady's family, which, with the 

 accompanying pedigree, compiled from various sources, mostly 

 printed, will explain the connection between Oliver Calley and 

 Abjohn and Mary Stokes, who took certain reversionary interests 

 under his will, proportioned presumably, to the value of the estates 

 derived from the Scott family, of which family the representation 

 on failure of Mrs. Calley's issue would have centred in her sister 

 and her sister's heirs. The Danvers legatees were similarly in 

 remainder to the testator's Fiddington estates on failure of his 

 mother, Anne Bower's issue, being his cousins ex parte matema ; 

 and it is clear from both bequests that Oliver Calley strongly held 

 the view, very lightly regarded nowadays, that money should 

 return whence it came : — 



Oliver Calley married Mary one of the two daughters and coheirs of John 

 Scott, of Heddington, "Wilts, and Abjohn Stokes, of Titherton Lucas, esq., 

 married Anne, the other daughter of the said John Scott. These ladies 

 became entitled to estates in the parishes of Calstone, Calne, and Heddington 

 which belonged to their father. 



John Scott was son of Thomas Scott, of Heddington, yeoman, whose will 

 is dated 30th of December, 1628. He mentions in it Anne his wife, his son 

 William, his daughters Anne, Margery, Joan, Susannah Dyer and Elizabeth 

 Beare, his sister Katherine Arnold, and John Scott, of Calne. 



It would seem from his will, the text of which is taken from a 

 copy kindly lent by Mr. John Mullings, that Oliver Calley never 

 took up his abode at Burderop. He pre-deceased both his mother 

 and Dame Elizabeth Mompesson, his brother's widow, and had but 

 a reversionary interest, possibly in this, and certainly in other of 

 the family estates : —
