CHETWODE OF CHETWODE, BARONET 1700.
This very ancient family is lineally descended
from Robert de Thain, who held Chetwode under
the Bishop of Baieux in the time of William
the Conqueror, as appears by Domesday Book.
John de Chetwode having during the reign
of Edward III. married the heiress of Oakeley
of Oakeley, in Staffordshire, the family have
mostly resided there, as well as at Anstey Hall in Warwickshire,
derived from the heiress of Ludford in 1821.
Willis, writing in 1755, says " This manor of Chetwode, as
appears to me, has been in the possession and inheritance of the
Chetwodes longer than any estate or manor in this county of Buck-
ingham has continued the property of any other family now there
existing."
