  [Graham-Smith01272003.GED] [search232001.FTW] Katherine is buried before the altar in the South Chapel of the Church of St. Mary the Virgin. Through her second marriage to William de Tendring she became the distant grandmother of three queens of England, two of the unfortunate wives of Henry the VIII, Ann Boleyn and Catherine Howard, and Queen Elizabeth I. Their memorial brasses in the Church of St. Mary the Virgin are among the finest in England. The Clopton Arms: ermine spot on the bend in base may be seen on the mantle of the depiction of Dame Katherine. The descendants of William Clopton and his wife, Ann Booth, are direct descendants of Guillaume Pecche and Alfwen his wife, by both the Clopton-Mylde marriage and the Mylde de Tendring marriage.

  SOURCE: Ancestral File (TM)-ver. 4.17 16 Mar 1997 SOURCE: Cindy Richardson E-mail: cyntrich@earthlink.net 17 March 2001 Notes from Cindy: Sir Thomad de Cloptone, of Kentwell in Long Melford, County Suffolk, Knt., second son of Walter de Cloptone of Wichhambrook and Alice his first wife, died the 6th Richard II. In his will dated 8 March 1382, proved 12 October 1383, he requests "to be buryed by mother and first wife in Shipley Priory." Sir Thomas in his old age marred as his second wife Katherine, daughter and heiress of William Mylde of Clare, County Suffolk, Esq., who brought him the large estate of Lutons and Kentwell. But the Cloptones had settled in Suffolk before Sir Thomas acquired this property through marriage. At the time of his death and for nearly two hundred years after, the manorial residence was called "Lutons". In wills and documents of successive Cloptons, constant mention is made of "the Hall" or "Place of Lutons," as a dwelling place of the family. Katherine died in 1403, before her father William Mylde, and at her death by will "the Manor of Kentwelle Halle" passed to her eldest son William, by her first husband Sir Thomas de Cloptone the manor of Kentwelle Halle, if he does ot contest my will and all the lands and tenements called Lutons; a piece of silver, or coverd cup with six silver shells; a bed of white worsted stained with figures of men and women, and another bed and mattress; a pris napking, with a long twell with the same workmanship; a green vestment for a chaplin; a missel; and a book called a byble (in manuscript); a piece of silver called a Stondynggepec (quesry, standing piece) with a cover, head of a leopard; and a chest called the great Cofre, &C.

  === She brought to the marriage the large e ===
  She brought to the marriage the large estate of Lutons and Kentwell. Sir Thomas and Dame Katherine left a legacy of some ten manors in all. Among them the Manor of Toppesfield in the Town of Hadleigh; lands and tenements in Schymplyngg, Appleton; Chyppeleye (Manor of Clopton Hall or Chapperley Manor), and Poselyngworth. The Kentwell Estate comprises half a dozen manors. The principal manorial residence was called at that time by different names and causes some confusion. The name Kentwell Hall did not become fixed until nearly 200 years after Sir Thomas' death. In Domesday Book (1086) the old english name was Kanewella (a place where springs rise or well up to the surface) is listed, its first owner was Frodo. Frodo was the brother of the first Abbot of what became the great Abbey of Bury St. Edmunds. It was also referred to as "Lutons," "Luton Hall," and "Place of Lutons." Records indicate the manor was eventually sold by Frodo's heirs to a family who took Kentwell as their name as was customary. The de Kentwells owned the manor until 1250 when it came into the hands of King Henry III. King Henry III grated it to his half brother Sir William de Valence. After his death in 1296 the Manor, now comprising some 440 acres was passed to his son Aymer de Valence, nicknamed 'Joseph the Jew.' At his death in 1323 the Manor passed to Aymer's relative by marriage, David de Strabolgie, 2nd Earl of Athol who sold it to Sir Robert Gower. Sr. Gower held the estate for a brief period, selling it to his kinsman, the poet, John Gower. In 1373 he sold it to the trustees of Dame Katherine. After Sir Thomas' death, Dame Katherine took as her second husband Sir William de Tendring of Stoke-by-Nayland. It was from this marriage some descendants of William Clopton, Gentleman, and Ann (Booth) Dennett are linked through both the Clopton-Mylde and Mylde-de Tendring lines. Through this marriage she became the distant grandmother of three queens of England: two of the unfortunate wives of Hen ry the VIII, Ann Boleyn and Katherine Howard, and Queen Elizabeth I. Dame Katherine, who died in 1403, is buried at the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, Stoke-by-Nyland, Suffolk. Their memorial brasses are among the finest in England. Katherine Mylde married first, Sir Thomas. Following Sir Thomas’ death, Dame Katherine married Sir William deTendring, Knt., of Tendering Hall, Stokes-by-Nayland, County Suffolk. It is believed those claiming Clopton ancestry through William Clopton, Gentleman, of Eastwood, County Essex, and York (now New Kent) County, Virginia and his wife, Ann (Booth) Dennett are descendants of both these marriages. She died Bet. February 24, 1402/03 and June 18, 1403 in Tendring Hall, Stokes-by-Nayland, County Suffolk, about 6 miles southwest of Hadleigh, and buried The Church of St. Mary the Virgin, before the altar in the South Chapel4. After Sir Thomas' death, Dame Katherine took as her second husband Sir William de Tendring of Stoke-by-Nayland. Through this marriage she became the distant grandmother of three queens of England: two of the unfortunate wives of Henry the VIII, Ann Boleyn and Catherine Howard, and Queen Elizabeth I. Dame Katherine, who died in 1403, is buried at the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, Stoke-by-Nyland, Suffolk. Their memorial brasses are among the finest in England. The Clopton Arms: ermine spot on the bend in base may be seen on the mantle of the depiction of Dame Katherine. The descendants of William Clopton and his wife, Ann Booth, are direct descendants of Guillaume Peche and Alfwen, his wife, by both the Clopton-Mylde marriage and the Mylde deTendring marriage. See "Place of Lutons." Several other Clopton lines of descent from the ancient Cloptons, which do not go through William Clopton, Gentleman, of Eastwood, County Essex, and York (now New Kent) County, Virginia and his wife, Ann (Booth) Dennett, are under study including: Walter Clopton + Alice FitzHugh William Clopton + Amitia or Ivetta Grey Johane Clopton + R oger Beauchamp John Beauchamp + Margaret Holland Margaret Beauchamp + Oliver St. John John St. John + Alice Bradshaw John St. John + Sybil Jenkyn John St. John + Anne Neville Cressit St. John + John Boetler or Butler John Boetler or Butler + Jane Elliott Elizabeth Boetler +William Claiborne, Sr. Secretary for Life of Virginia Thomas Clopton + Katherine Mylde William Clopton + Margery Francis John Clopton + Alice Darcy William Clopton + Joan Marrow Elizabeth Clopton + Geoffrey Gates Dorothy Gates + Thomas Josselyn Henry Josselyn + Anne Torrell Thomas Josselyn + Theodora Cooke Henry Josselyn, Deputy Governor of Maine Endnote: Engleheart, The Church of St. Mary the Virgin, (Courtesy of Suellen (Clopton) DeLoach Blanton), p. 8-9, The monumental brasses of both Sir William de Tendering and Katherine Mylde are found in the south chapel of the church. They are considered among the finest in England. Sir, Williams brass, in full armour, resting his head on his helm, bears a crest of feathers. Citing Weaver's "Funeral Monuments" Written in 1631, the brass is described: "Upon the Pavement before the high Aultar lyeth an auncient Gravestone, having thereon the figure of a Knight in compleat Armour, resting his Head upon his Gauntlet, with this circumscription: 'Hic iacent Tumulati, Dominus Willelmus Tendering, miles, et Katherine Clopton uxor eiusdem: obierunt anno Domini 1408." Engleheart notes the incorrect death date of 1408. Possibly Weaver misread the date and assumed they both died in that year. Unfortunately, many publications have used this date of 1408 which is incorrect on both accounts.Also, in her will dated February 24, 1403, proved June 18, 1403, she states she wishes "to be buried in the Chapel of the Church of Stoke Neyland on the south side of the church before the altar of said chapel."
