John Newenham1

M, #13430

ChartsAnn Marbury Pedigree

DNB* Newenham, John (d. 1390), administrator, was on the evidence of the location and patronage of his early benefices a Cheshire man in the service of Edward, the Black Prince, who presented him to the rectory of Cheadle and the vicarage of Over in 1349, and to the chantry of St Nicholas, Nantwich, in 1353, and who in 1349 petitioned the pope on his behalf. Newenham had business or personal links with three men who were also associated with the Black Prince: Ralph Basset of Drayton, for whom he acted as attorney during Drayton's pilgrimage to the Holy Land (1360–61) and overseas journeys in the king's service (1368); Edward Despenser (d. 1375), with whose widow he acted in property transactions; and Sir Thomas Ferrers, a long-serving member of the prince's staff, of whose will he was an executor. Edward III presented him to Farndish, Bedfordshire, in December 1349, to Thundersley, Essex, in November 1360, and to a prebend in the royal free chapel of Wolverhampton before March 1361; the royal grant of Bishophull prebend (Lichfield) proved ineffective.

Newenham perhaps entered crown service c.1360, and in April 1361 he and Thomas Minot, a former privy seal clerk, were apparently serving in Ireland. Newenham was appointed a chamberlain of the exchequer on 21 February 1365, and served until 30 September 1369. His duties included the payment of wages to archers guarding the coast at Portsmouth and Southampton in 1369. During these years he served on a number of ad hoc commissions—for example, of oyer and terminer in Suffolk in 1366, and to visit four royal free chapels in the west midlands in 1368—and in this decade his ecclesiastical career also prospered greatly; he acquired prebends in the cathedrals of Wells (1363 and 1367), Lincoln (1364), and Lichfield (1365), and the deanery of the royal free chapel of Wolverhampton (1368). A continuing thread in his church career was the acquisition of benefices in Wales and Cheshire: the treasurership of Llandaff Cathedral by exchange in 1360, two prebends in St John's College, Chester (1361 and 1365), the churches of Gumfreston, Dyfed, in 1374 and Wolvesnewton, Gwent, in 1379. Newenham is not known to have held any crown office after 1369, and from 1374 virtually disappears from the public records. He had apparently relinquished all his cathedral prebends by c.1380. In 1389 he exchanged Poynings rectory in Sussex for Little Burstead, Essex, his last benefice. His short will left modest bequests to Burstead church and to the rector of St Andrew's, Holborn, Middlesex, and named Master John Dorne, clerk, and Isabella atte Crofte as his executors. It was dated 16 September 1390 and proved on the 25th of the same month. Thomas Newenham (d. 1393/4), administrator, may have been John Newenham's brother. He is first recorded in 1340, as a chancery clerk, and as a king's clerk was presented to St Mary's, Drogheda, Louth, in 1342, though he was only ordained (as both deacon and priest) in 1370. His most important benefice was the rectory of Newbury, Berkshire, which he held from 1369 until his death, and he also obtained an unidentified prebend at Llandaff. His career was centred upon the chancery, where he became a clerk of the first grade in 1369. In 1371 he received petitions in parliament, while in 1377, and again in 1386, he was one of the commissioners given custody of the great seal when the chancellor was abroad. He had interests in Surrey and Kent, and probably London, and in 1369 acquired property in Warwickshire; he also appears to have been active as a moneylender. Thomas Newenham was still employed in the king's service on 27 March 1393, but was dead by 25 May 1394.
