_The Heveninghams of Suffolk and Norfolk._--This ancient family traces its
pedigree through twenty-five knights in succession to Galtir Heveninghame,
who lived when Canute was king of England, ann. 1020. (See Harleian MSS.
1449. fol. 91 b.; and Southey's _Doctor_, &c.)
From one of those knights, Sir John Hevenyngham (ob. 1536), descended a
collateral branch, represented by Walter Heveningham of Pipe Hall and Aston
estates, Staffordshire (1562), who married Annela, daughter of Fitzherbert
the Judge. His eldest son was Nicholas, who married Eliza, daughter of Sir
John Beevor; and the eldest son of the last-named was Sir Walter
Heveningham (1612, ob. 1691).
Now I should feel greatly obliged to any of your readers if, from any of
the published or written documents relating to the county of Stafford, or
from any other source, they could favour me with answers to the following
Queries:
1. Whom did Sir Walter Heveningham marry? His second son married the widow
of Sir Edward Simeon, Bart.; but
2. What was the name of Sir Walter's eldest son, and whom did he marry? The
issue of this {104} latter marriage was Charles Heveningham of Lichfield
(ob. 1782), who married a daughter of Robinson of Appleby, and John
Heveningham.
