From Tudor Times
Bryan Hoggarth of the Sheep Fold website has traced the Hoggarth/Allin line back to Tudor times.
After years of doing my family tree, my wife Liz traced hers, thanks to Bryan and Google, in just a few seconds.
Anyone looking into the Hogarth family should also check out Hogarth Family HQ.
With Bryan's kind permission, I've borrowed heavily from his work for this section of the site.You can download a PDF file here.
To date, the family history begins, not in Yorkshire, but in the village of Dauntsey, Wiltshire, in mid Tudor times.
The first possible ancestor Bryan can find is Robert Allin, who is mentioned in the 1539 will of Dame Anne Danvers:
"Item I give to Robert Allyn my godsone vj shepe Avote of Water" Houngerforde that will ?ue hym and a hoseclothe and a cowe/ "
The 1549 will of Dame Anne's grandson Sylvester Danvers says:
"Item I give to Robert Allyn my baye mare that I bought of George Worthe".
At this stage the likely link between Danvers and Allins is most likely to be that of master/servant, although further research may turn up a stronger connection; of course, it is possible that an illegitimate birth is involved.
Twenty years on and Sylvester's son Sir John Danvers acquired the manor of Danby on his marriage to Lady Elizabeth Nevill (Yes, that Nevill family - she was descended from John of Gaunt, her 3x gt grandfather, George Nevill, was the brother of Cecily, who was the mother of both Edward IV and Richard III, and her grandfather's widow, Catherine Parr, went on to marry Henry VIII. If that whets your appetite, Sir John and Elizabeth's children were also involved in the Essex rebellion against Elizabeth I, and one of them went on to become a signatory to Charles I's death warrant.)
The first definite ancestor Bryan can find is Danvers Allin, who moved from Wiltshire to Danby to help administer the estates.
Other researchers should note that the Hoggarths of Fryup often used Joseph as a first name - usually when they were fed up with Danvers.
