(1) We first prepared this page on 12.04.09 using the web site 'TUDOR' and provided the following comment: "We give full credit to 'TUDOR' for being the source for most of the data on these pages on the Fettiplace family, with apologies to that site should we have made any errors in transcribing any data." We redid the page on 15.12.21 using MGH. This led to only a few changes, the more significant of which have been noted below. (2) The family name appears to have been spelt with several variations along the lines of Fettiplace, Feteplace, Pheteplas, etc.. We keep to 'Fettiplace' which appears to be the most common. BEB1841 ('Fettiplace of Childrey') suggests that the family descended from a Fettiplace who "was gentleman usher to William the Conqueror, and came in with that monarch". MGH & 'TUDOR' start with the following Adam. We found a web site on the family which suggests that his father may have been called Thomas. |

(C) | John Fettiplace of Wolvele (Woolley, Berkshire) (a 1462 when "of great age") had issue | ||||||||||||||
John is not mentioned by 'TUDOR'. MGH reports that there is not sufficient evidence to prove that Walter & John were brothers of John & Thomas but, whilst they could have been a generation earlier, showing them as of this generation may be viewed as supported by the fact that the arms of Thomas "are differenced with a martlet, the mark of a 4th son". | |||||||||||||||
(C) | Thomas Fettiplace of East Shefford, Sheriff of Berkshire & Oxfordshire (b 1383, d c1442 (1446?)) | ||||||||||||||
The following is supported by MGH (NS5 vol 2 (1916-7), 'The Family of Fettiplace', Pedigree II, p131+). | |||||||||||||||
m. Beatrix 'of Portugal' (d 25.12.1447, widow of Gilbert Talbot, Lord Talbot, brother of John, 1st Earl of Shrewsbury) ## see here ## | |||||||||||||||
'TUDOR' warns that Beatrix is often confused with Beatrice, an illegitimate dau of Joao, King of Portugal, who married Thomas FitzAlan, Earl of Arundel, then John Holand, Duke of Exeter, and then makes a link indicating that she was a legitimate daughter of that King (by Philippa Plantagenet, dau of John of Gaunt). The true identity of this Beatrix is unclear. TCP ('Talbot') notes that she may have been of the family of Pinto or of that of de Souza, the latter connection possibly explaining why her coat of arms was based on the Royal family of Portugal. | |||||||||||||||
(i) | William Fettiplace of Stokenchurch, Oxfordshire | ||||||||||||||
'TUDOR' identifies William's wife as Catherine Barrington, MGH as Katherine Barantyne. Note the probable confusion with another (probably incorrectly shown) William Fettiplace below. | |||||||||||||||
m. Katherine Barantyne (dau of Drew Barantyne of Chalgrove) | |||||||||||||||
(a) | Anne Fettiplace | ||||||||||||||
m. Hugh Unton | |||||||||||||||

(iii) | John Fettiplace of East Shelford & London (d 01.08.1464) | ||||||||||||||
The following is supported by MGH (NS5 vol 2 (1916-7), 'The Family of Fettiplace', Pedigree III, p183+). | |||||||||||||||
m(1). Jane Fabian (dau of Edward Fabian, widow of Alderman Robert (not John) Horne of London, m3. John Estbury of Letcombe Regis) | |||||||||||||||
(a) | Richard Fettiplace of East Shefford & Besselsleigh (d 1511) | ||||||||||||||
m. Elizabeth Besells (dau/heir of William Besells by Alice Harcourt) | |||||||||||||||
(b) | Anthony Fettiplace of Swinbrook (d 23.12.1510) | ||||||||||||||
m. Mary Fortescue (dau of Sir John Fortescue of Salden) | |||||||||||||||
(c) | Sir Thomas Fettiplace of Compton Beauchamp (b 1458, d 10.12.1523) | ||||||||||||||
'TUDOR' shows this Thomas as married to Elizabeth, dau of Sir William Norreys of Yattenden by Jane de Vere, and notes that some sources show the Thomas who married Elizabeth Carew as the same person as, rather than the son of, this Thomas. 'TUDOR' then shows this Thomas as having daughters Elizabeth & Catherine plus a son Thomas (d c1524) who was father, by that Elizabeth Carew, of Nicholas & Catherine. MGH shows just 1 generation of Thomases and does not mention any marriage to Elizabeth Norreys but shows as follows. | |||||||||||||||
m1. Margaret Warying (dsp 22.01.1518, dau of Thomas Warying by Joane, dau/heir of Thomas Walrond of Childrey, sister of Elizabeth) | |||||||||||||||
m2. Elizabeth Carew (d 04.02.1532, dau (by Malyn Oxenbridge) of Sir Richard Carew son (by Alianor Hoo) of James son of Nicholas by Margaret, dau of Sir Roger Fiennes by Elizabeth Holland) | |||||||||||||||

m. Elizabeth Waryng, heiress of Childrey (dsp 14.01.1516, dau of Thomas Waryng (by Joan, dau of Thomas Walrond of Childrey), widow of John Kentwood) | |||||||||||||||
VCH (Berkshire, vol 4, Childrey) reports that Childrey passed through this marriage to their nephew Alexander, son of William's elder brother Anthony. | |||||||||||||||
(e) | Margaret Fettiplace | ||||||||||||||
m. Marmaduke Becke of Whiteknights (d 26.10.1497) | |||||||||||||||
