; [The 1st Earl of Essex's] son was recreated Earl of Essex by MAUD in Jan 1155/6, the rebellious habits of the father and perhaps also the appointive nature of earldoms at the time (see NORTHUMBERLAND, D, and RUTLAND, D, for a discussion of early earldoms) requiring a regrant.⁸

; Per Med Lands:
     "GEOFFREY (-Chester 21 Oct 1166, bur Walden Abbey). He received a grant of his father's lands from Empress Matilda at Devizes before 1147, and he was created Earl of Essex [Jan 1156][706]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Galfridus de Mondeville iii m i militem et dimidium" in Somerset in [1160/61][707]. The Chronicle of Ralph of Coggeshall records the death in 1166 of "Galfridus junior de Mandavilla"[708]. The History of the foundation of Walden abbey records the death “1165 XII Kal Nov” of “Galfridus de Mandavill comes Essexiæ”[709].
     "m (1158 or before, divorced) as her first husband, EUSTACHIE, [relative of HENRY II King of England], daughter of --- (-[1164]). Geoffrey Earl of Essex confirmed grants of lands in Sawbridgworth by Warin FitzGerold camerarius regis and by his brother Henry to Robert Blund of London by charter dated to [1157/58], witnessed by "Roesia com matre mea, Eust[achia] com[itissa], Ernulfo de Mannavilla fratre meo, Willelmo filio Otuwel patruo meo…"[710]. The Chronicle of Walden records that King Henry II arranged the marriage of “[Galfredo]” and “uxorem generis nobilitate sibi consanguineam”, that her husband refused to live with her and that the couple was divorced, that she received “duobus maneriis Waledena...et Walteham” and was married to “Anselmo...de Campdavene” with the two manors[711]. Charles Evans speculated that she was the illegitimate daughter of Eustache IV Comte de Boulogne, based only on onomastic reasons[712], but other families besides the counts of Boulogne used this name at the time[713]. If correct, this would also mean that Eustachie was little more than a child, even at the time of her second marriage, as her alleged father was himself born in [1127/31], which makes the report of Earl Geoffrey refusing to cohabit rather unlikely. She married secondly as his second wife, Anselme "Candavène" Comte de Saint-Pol (-1174). Du Chesne says that this wife of Anselme “nommée Eustache vivoit encore avecques luy l’an 1164” but does not cite the primary source which confirms this information[714]."

Purleigh, County Essex, Clerk,"(*) and stated that in July, 1632, he was indebted to one John Browne of Oxford to the amount of 69 18s. 5d., and for security had given an obligation to pay 140 in case of his failure to meet the obligation of 69 when due. Also the bill recites that before he went upon the aforesaid journey he had purchased the interest of a Mr. Parr in a furnished chamber in Brasenose College, which the said Parr and Mr. Atherton Burch had fitted up at an expense of 40, and that when he, the complainant, purchased Parr's interest therein he expended 15 additional. Burch died during the complainant's absence on a long journey, whereupon, the defendant, John Browne, taking advantage of the absence of Lawrence, removed from the apartment the furnishings on the pretense that Burch was indebted to him, taking Washington's personal property also. The latter's suit is to recover the value of the furnishings above the balance due on his original obligation to Browne,! the completion of the original agreement by the plaintiff having been interfered with by the defendant's unwarranted removal of the property of the plaintiff and failure to come to an adjustment. The defendant acknowledged in his reply that he had been paid in cash 40 in May, 1633, and 10, in May, 1636, on the original obligation of 69. The result of the suit is not stated in the bundle of documents. Its value, historically, is in showing that its reference to the time of the removal of Lawrence14 Washington, M.A., from Oxford, corresponds with his entering upon the cure of souls at

(*) Cleric--clergyman.

Purleigh, on March 14, 1632/3, for the defendant John Browne in his rejoinder refers to the date of the agreement, July 20, 1632, and adds "and shortly after the complainant left his fellowship and abode in the University of Oxon." His friend, Baron Robert Spencer, had died about 1627, and it was not usual for a Fellow at college to save money for a marriage that was not contemplated in the terms of his fellowship.

It is evident that the young gentleman, Lawrence Washington, was dependent upon his own resources when he married, and that the increase in his expenses caused by the birth of a son, entitled him to the two things that he received: first, a position affording him a larger income and an independent home; second, the full consideration of his merits and requirements by the authorities of the college, and in recognition, within the limits of the official precedent, of his ten years of service to Brasenose College as an educator. The further and final honor was paid to him in March, 1633/4, following his resignation of his fellowship in the preceding November, by the issuing of a "Grace" or letter by the authorities of Brasenose College to their superiors of the University of Oxford, approving the conferring of the degree of Bachelor of Divinity on the Rev. Lawrence14 Washington, rector of the church of All Saints, Purleigh, Essex. On the preceding July 6, 1633, he decided, af! ter surveying the tithes due to his church, that certain tithes of Purleigh Wood, then in the tenure of Sir Henry Mildmay, Knight, were due. Consequently on that date he brought suit against that gentleman, in which he is described

From Wikipedia:
     Lawrence Washington (1602 – 21 January 1652)[1][2] was a High Church rector of the Church of England. He was an ancestor of the Washington family of Virginia, being the paternal great-great-grandfather of George Washington, the first president of the United States.[1]
Family
     Lawrence Washington was born in England in 1602. He was the fifth son of Lawrence Washington (1565–1616) of Sulgrave Manor, Northamptonshire, who was the son and heir of Robert Washington (1544–1619), of Sulgrave by his first wife, Elizabeth Lyte; she was the daughter and heiress of Walter Lyte of Radway Grange, Warwickshire, and his wife Ursula Woodford. The younger Lawrence's mother was Margaret Butler (1568 – 16 March 1651), the eldest daughter and co-heiress of William Butler of Tyes Hall in Cuckfield, West Sussex, and Margaret Greeke, the daughter of Thomas Greeke, gentleman, of Palsters, Lancashire.
     He had seven brothers: Robert, Sir John, Sir William, Richard, Thomas, Gregory and George; and nine sisters: Elizabeth, Joan, Margaret, Alice, Frances, Amy, Lucy, Barbara and Jane.[3] His elder brother, Sir William Washington, married Anne Villiers, half-sister of James I's favourite, George Villiers, 1st Duke of Buckingham.[4][1][5][6]
     Washington was a great-grandson of Lawrence Washington (c.?1500 – c.?1583) and his wife Amy Partiger (died 1564), and a great-great-grandson of John Washington (1478–1528) and his wife Margaret Kitson, the sister of Sir Thomas Kitson of Hengrave Hall in Suffolk.[1]
Career
     Washington was admitted to Brasenose College, Oxford in 1619. He graduated in 1623 with a Bachelor of Arts,[2] and within a few days was elected a Fellow of the College. In 1626 he was awarded a Master of Arts, and in 1627 appointed university lector.
     On 26 August 1632 the archbishop of Canterbury, William Laud, made Washington proctor at the University of Oxford. In accordance with the desires of King Charles I, the Supreme Head of the Church of England, Laud sought to enforce the High Church reforms – known as Laudianism – and to rid the university of Puritan clergy. Dr Washington was instrumental in carrying out the archbishop's purges.[7] Washington's services to Laud earned him an appointment to the well-compensated rectory of All Saints parish at Purleigh in Essex, a position he assumed in 1632. The appointment enabled Washington to marry Amphilis Twigden, a literate, wealthy young widow. Oxford dons were forbidden from marrying, and Washington had risked his post at the university by courting her.[7]
     During the English Civil War more than one hundred Church of England clergymen, referred to as "scandalous, malignant priests", were dismissed from their parishes for alleged high treason, Laudianism, or immorality by the Puritan Parliament.[8] In 1643, Washington was censured on trumped-up charges of being "a common frequenter of ale-houses" who "[encouraged] others in that beastly vice" and lost his benefice.[9]
     Following his ejection from Purleigh, Washington became rector of the impoverished parish of Little Braxted, also in Essex. His wife and children did not accompany him there, as they were given shelter by the family of Sir Edwin Sandys, sympathetic relations whose patriarch had served as treasurer in the Virginia Company. Through the Sandys, Lawrence's son John secured an apprenticeship with a London merchant where he learned the tobacco trade.[10]
     Washington died in poverty, leaving an estate of insufficient value to require the issuance of letters of administration, and was buried in the churchyard of All Saints' Church at Maldon, Essex.[2]
     Three of Washington's children emigrated to Virginia, as did another family member, Sir Samuel Argall, whose widowed mother, Mary (d.?1598), had married Washington's great-uncle, Lawrence Washington (d.?1619) of Maidstone, Kent; he was Registrar of the Court of Chancery.[1][11][12]
Commemoration
     In 1928 the Washington window, commemorating the Washington family, was given to All Saints' Church, Maldon, by the citizens of Malden, Massachusetts.[2][13]
Marriage and issue
     In 1630 Washington met Amphilis Twigden on a visit to Pendley Manor in Tring, Hertfordshire.[14] Amphilis, baptised 2 February 1602 and buried on 12 January 1655, was the daughter and co-heiress of John Twigden of Little Creaton, Northamptonshire, and Anne Dicken, daughter of William Dicken and wife Anne Thornton. Lawrence and Amphilis married in Tring in December 1633, and had three sons and three daughters:[2][3]
     Lt. Col. John Washington was born in 1633/4, shortly after his parents' marriage. He emigrated to Virginia in 1656. He married firstly, in 1658, Anne Pope (d.?1668), the daughter of Nathaniel Pope, gentleman, of Virginia, by whom he had two sons, Lawrence (grandfather of George Washington) and John, and a daughter, Anne. He married secondly Anne (maiden name unknown), widow successively of Walter Broadhurst (d.?1658), and Henry Brett. He married thirdly Frances Gerard, widow successively of Thomas Speak, Valentine Peyton and John Appleton. He left a will dated 21 September 1675, which was proved 10 January 1677:8. After his death, his widow, Frances, married William Hardidge.[15]
     Lawrence Washington, who was baptised at Tring on 18 June 1635. He emigrated to Virginia before May 1659, but returned to England, becoming a merchant in Luton, Bedfordshire. He married firstly Mary Jones, daughter of Edmund Jones, gentleman, of Luton, by whom he had a son, Charles, and a daughter, Mary. He emigrated to Virginia a second time shortly before 27 September 1667. He married secondly, about 1669, Joyce Jones, widow successively of Anthony Hoskins and Alexander Fleming, and daughter of William Jones of Virginia, by whom he had a son, John, and a daughter, Anne. He left a will dated 27 September 1675, which was proved 6 June 1677. After his death his widow, Joyce, married James Yates.[15]
     William Washington (baptised 14 October 1641).[3]
     Elizabeth Washington (baptised 17 August 1636), who married a husband surnamed Rumbold.[3]
     Margaret Washington, who married George Talbot.[3]
     Martha Washington, who emigrated to Virginia in 1678. She married Samuel Hayward of Virginia, son of the London merchant Nicholas Hayward. There were no issue of the marriage. She left a will dated 6 May 1697, which was proved 8 December 1697.[15]
