BABINGTON - other
I have been studying another Babington line, as, although
we cannot find a connection to the Lincolnshire branch, in one of the files
that was sent to me, it showed that the Lincolnshire branch were connected
to the main branch via Cornelius Babington of the Derbyshire Babingtons.
However, with research of the Lincolnshire branch, back to the 17th century,
I have found no connection to these other Babingtons, at all.
My information
is back to Christopher Babington of Benniworth, Lincs and there I am stuck.I have been studying this line, and correcting
in part the College of Arms data which showed the ‘definitive’ Babington
history. With other researchers help, I have found ancestors who were not
mentioned in the data, marrying into ANNESLEY, WILLOUGHBY, families etc.
I am also researching the history of the ‘infamous’
Anthony BABINGTON, he of the Queen Elizabeth I plot, and his family, and
after his execution, his wifes (nee DRAYCOTT) marriage into the FOLJAMBE
family.The Leicestershire BABINGTONs of Rothley have
been most interesting to research, their ‘house’ now being a hotel and
restaurant.
Hopefully at some stage more information will come to light!
