Barnard Hore
Abt 1568 - Bef 1634 (66 years)1. Barnard Hore was born about 1568 in Sidmouth, Devonshire, England (son of Henry Hore and Fides Osborne); died before 17 Jun 1634 in Sidmouth, Devonshire, England. Notes:
The first reference to Barnard that has been found is in the
will of his father, Henry, in 1589. On 4 July 32 Elizabeth
(1590), he became lessee of lands formerly held by his father,
when Sir John Peter [Petre}, knight, leased to Barnarde Hore,
mariner, for the consideration of 330 pounds, one humdred thirty
acres in Combpyne and ten acres in Downhunfraville in Axmouth,
all late in the possession of Henry Hore, deceased father of
Barnarde, to commence from the Feast of the Annunciation (25
March) next. The term was for ninety-nine years of the lives of
Barnarde Hore, William Hore, and Henrie Hore his brothers, the
rent to be 39 shillings 8 pence for lands in Combpyne and 6
shillings and pence for lands in Downhumfraville. Fides Hore
was to occupy certain premises during her widowhood and Barnard
was to live on the premises in Combpyne. The usual reservations
were made to the landlord for such things as timber and hunting
rights. It was signed by Bernar Hoor and witnesses Roger
Blackaller, John Osborne, and Roger Braunch. The terms are
repeated in the Manor surveys made about 1590 and 1612. Three
hundred and thirty pounds was a large sum of money for that
time, and although Petre tenants were allowed deferred or
"estalled" payments, Barnard paid cash in full. Fides Hore as
the widow refused her son Barnard's right to occupy the Combpyne
barton land called Lydeyates, and actually took, him to court
on the matter. It was possibly because ofa this family dispute
that Barnard moved, or returned, to the small port town of
Sidmouth abut twelve miles from Combpyne until after his
mother's death, although this was contrary to the terms of the
Combpyne lease. In 1610 the Petre family gave instructions to
their visiting agent "to see whether Barnarde Hore dwelleth at
Combpyne," but apparently did not actually return until about
1613.
Barnard's first two marriages are recorded at Sidmoutn. The
names of Catherine Wheaton's parents and first husband have not
been found. "Chatherynge wife of Barnarde Horre gentellwoman
was buryed in the sothe elle [of the church at Sidmouth] meare
to the poolle pytte" on 3 December 1603.
The last record of Barnard in the parish of Sidmouth is on 9
October 1613 whe he, with William Pin and William Slade, made
the inventory of the estate of his father-in-law. It was after
his return to Combpyne that Barnard Hore married his third wife,
Mary. Their four children are named in land leases taken out by
Mary after the death of her husband. Barnard Hore died
intestate. Letters of administration were granted to Mary Hore,
relict, 19 June 1634 with a bond of 200 pounds to the Archbishop
of Canterbury by George Hardy, yeoman, and Leonard Hurden of
Axmouth. Witnesses were John Chisway, Thos. (Staward?), Edmund
Aishford (rector of Combpyne), and William Walton (curate of
Seaton). The estate, inventoried 17 June 1634 by George Hardie,
Leonard Hurden, Andrew Pounde, and John Pitts, totaled 176
pounds 2 shillings 10 pence, and included the house in Sidmouth
(probably a lease hold), and a debt of 50 pounds owed by John
Peerce of Sidmouth.
Family leases taken out, renewed, or transferred between the
years 1633 and 1639 make it clear that during 1633 Barnard had
been distributing most of his estate to his heirs, perhaps in
anticipation of death. The inventory of his estate probably
represested but a small part of the family's worth. The money
paid for leases during the period 1633 to 1639 by the widow and
Barnaard's two oldest sons totaled 293 pounds, 6s. 8d., a
sizeable sum.
The first two leases, made the same day and transferring part of
Barnard's land leases to his two oldest sons, Hezekiah's older
hafl-brothers, contain Hezekiah's signatures as witness. On 20
April 1633 Petre family trustees leased to Hasper Hore of
Combpyne, yeoman, for the consideration of 100 marks (equal to
66 pounds, 13s. 4d.), with reversion after the death of his
father Barnard Hore, barton lands in Combpyne for the lives of
Jasper Hore and Helioner his wife, the rent to be 15 shillings
per annum. This was witnessed by Robert Hoore and Ezekias
Hoore.
On 20 April 1633, the Petre family trustees leased to Robert
Hore of Combpyne, yeoman, a lease identical with Jasper's but fo
barton lands in Combpyne and Downhumfraville, Axmouth, for the
terms of life of Robert Hore and Garthured his daughter, rent to
be 7s. 8d.
Witness were Jasper Hore and Ezekias Hoore.
This would have been a logical time for Barnard to have
distributed cash settlements to his other children, and to his
wife and her children. This may very well explain the source of
the funds which enabled Hezekiah to emigrate shortly thereafter
and to buy shares in the future settlement of Taunton, Massachusetts
On 13 July Chas. I (1639) Mary Hore of Conbpyne, in
consideration of 80 pounds, had transferred to her name the
lease of a cottage and fourteen acres and other lands in
Combpyne, now occupied by her in her widowhood, but lately
occupied by her late husband Barnard Hore. The terms were for
the lives of her sons John and Henry Hore. Witnesses were John
Vye and William Barbar. On the same date for the consideration
of 80 pounds, she leased lands in the manor of Downhumfraville,
Axmouth, for the lives of her children Samuel and Dyna.

Will
Will proved
Henry Hore died between 28 November 1589 when he made his will,
and 27 June 1590 when it was proved.
Henry held land with his father from the Drakes at Ashe in
Musbury, and was living at neighboring Compyne between 1566 and
1580. The earliest surviving records fo the manors of Combpyne
and Axmouth (1566) show that Henry Hore had been granted a
reversion of copyhold premises, then being held by Margaret
Wykes in widowhood, to hold for his life. He does not appear on
the Combpyne Muster Roll of 1569, so was evidently not then in
possession. By the next Manorial Survey about 158-, he was in
possession of land leases from Combpyne Manor, including a
tenement and cottage with fourteen acres and eighty-four acres
of barton (farm) land, and from Downhumfraville Manor, at
Axmouth, he held a tenement and thirty-six acres plus eight
acres of barton land and grazing on the common for eighty-four
sheep.
A later marginal note states that "Fides Hore widow holds the
customary tenements. The barton lands granted to Barnarde Hore
(her eldest son), and Henry and William Hore his brothers." As
will be seen below, some of the barton lands became a matter of
contention between Barnard and his mother. The word "mort"
besides her name on a grant of reversion dated 23 January 33
Elizabeth (1591) to Barnard and Henry Hore from Phillippe, Earl
of Arundel was probably added at a later date, because the Manor
Survey of 1596 indicated that Fides was still living at that
time.
The will of Henry Hore left substantial sums of money to his
children and the residue to his wife Fides, who was to be
executrtix. He named as overseers "my father-in-law" William
Osborne, Esquire, and "his son" John Osborne, Esquire, Roger
Hore, and John Vy. William Osborne was a witness and the
inventory, recorded 1 April 32 Elizabeth (1590), was taken by
William Osborne, George Hore, and John Osborne.Henry married Fides Osborne. Fides (daughter of William Osborne and (Unknown) (Unknown)) was born about 1547 in Musbury, Devonshire, England; died after 1596. [Group Sheet]

Will
Richard Hore died between 10 December 1569 when he made his
will, and 11 February 1569/1570 when it was proved. His wife
Marriam was evidently a widow with his two daughters by a
previous marriage.
Richard is not named in surviving manor court records of his
father's deeds, but his parentage is indicated by his leasehold
of land formerly held by Thomas Hore from the Abbey. His name
is not on the 1569 muster rolls for militia duty, which may be
taken as an indication that he was then at least sixty years
old. A Consistory Court deposition by his son Roger shows that
by 1536 Richard was living in Musbury, where he held leases from
the Drake family of Ashe, a branch of the Drakes of Wiscombe,
Southleigh, from whence came the immigrant John Drake of
Dorchester and Taunton, MA and later Windsor, Connecticut Richard Hore
in his will dated 10 December 1569 and proved by his son George
11 February 1569/1570 named his wife Marrian and two
daughters-in-law [stepdaughters] Alice Whicker and Margaarete
Laveridge, probably Marriam's daughters by a previous marriage.
He named his own children Henry, Roger, George and Tomsen, and
mentioned the lease of the abbey grounds of Newenham [previously
held by Thomas Hore], which he left to grandson Priamus Hore.
He named as overseers Henry Hore and Roger Hore. Witnesses were
John Thomose, John Moore, and Henry Hore, and there is a
statement at the end that the will was "written by me, Augustine
Endicott".Richard married Marriam Hellyer in England. Marriam was born about 1515 in England. [Group Sheet]

Thomas Hoar and his wife Margery were named in deeds registered
in the Newenham Manor Court proceedings for 21 October 1512, 26
March 1534, 8 November 1536 and 19 April 1537 as lessees of
Newenham Abbey. Thomas Hore also held property from the Manor
of Axminster "three cottages with appurtenances and one meadow
called Barrysnmede and other desmesne lands called Long Cotehays
(all in the Tything of Axminster)" and "one tenement called
Wyllandes" and another tenement called Notplace and certain
desmesne lands and a close called Stritchenham (all in Tything
