• General Notes

  IV. Martha D'Oyly, unmarried 1577; subsequently wife of Bartholomew Tipping, Esq. of Draycott, co. Oxon., and of Shobington and Chequers, co. Oxon. and Bucks, brother of Sir George Tipping, of Wheatfield and Draycott, co. Oxon., High Sheriff of Oxfordshire in 1605, and second son of Thomas Tipping, Esq. of Draycott; which Tipping family bore for Arms, "Or, on a bend (sometimes engrailed) azure, three pheons of the first."[571] On this marriage Thomas and Sir George Tipping entered into an agreement to settle the manor of Woolley, co. Berks, the rectory of Shobington, co. Bucks, and the farm called Chequers, in Oxfordshire, on the young people and their issue ; but afterwards attempted to evade it. Thereupon Ralph D'Oyly, in behalf of his half-sister Martha, filed a bill in Chancery against them (temp. Eliz.) to compel the performance of the contract;[572] and was evidently successful, as her sons,
  1. Thomas Tipping, succeeded to Woolley Park, co. Berks, and made it his seat; and
  2. Bartholomew Tipping (by his wife Elizabeth, daughter of John Barker, Gentleman Usher to Queen Elizabeth), was progenitor of Bartholomew Wroughton, Esq. the present owner of Woolley Park and Shobington.[573]
