The Horners of Bourthwaite Not all the Horners of Wooddale moved to Ripon in the fourteenth century and it is quite probable that it was the younger lines that moved. The senior lines appear to have remained in Wooddale in the chapelry of Middlesmoor.
In
the subsidies of Edward III in 1327 for Kirkby Malassare an Adam
le horner
is recorded
[113]
. This may be the same man who was awarded land
in Burton
[114]
. In 1379 a William Horner,
Adam Horner, Thomas Horner and Agnes his daughter
are recorded in the Poll Tax returns of that year for Nidderdale
[115]
. By the fifteenth century, the Horners in Nidderdale were tenants of Fountains Abbey and worked near Aldfield and in Bourthwaite [116] . Bourthwaite is a lodge of Dacre. A Richard Horner was
a tenant and labourer on the Fountains Abbey estates in the 1450s
[117]
. In 1457-8, Richard worked as a labourer
and carried ‘garthwood’ for the community
[118]
. He was also given money to furnish his house
[119]
. He probably lived on the estates at Bourthwaite,
and appears to have been fairly wealthy
[120]
. In 1456-7, he repaid a debt of twenty-three
shillings and ten pence, which was quite a large sum at the time
[121]
. This may be the same Richard Horner recorded
in the Fabric Rolls of the Cathedral Church of St Wilfrid
and Peter in Ripon. In 1424-5 he was paid seven shillings
and nine pence for fifteen days work ‘circa ledhows a festo Annunciacionis
Beatae Maria usque pascha’
[122]
. At present, the relationship is not clear, but a William Horner of Bourthwaite, near Pateley Bridge, was also a tenant of the monks of Fountains Abbey [123] . William was one of the Abbots herdsmen at Bourthwaite Grange from 1454 to 1458 and was given money for the sale of cows [124] . He was given eight pence for the sale of his cottage in 1453 and may have moved to Sykes about this time [125] . William also worked as a labourer for the monks at Fountains Abbey in 1454-5 and 1457-8 [126] . In the same year, he was given a total of sixteen shillings by the monks at Fountains Abbey for repairs to ‘de Skelbuse’, near Sykes in Bourthwaite [127] . In 1458-9, William Horner was reimbursed by the monastery for carrying stones to ‘Calfalhous’ with the princely sum of five shillings and six pence [128] . This was probably to build the lodge known as Sikes, at Fountains Earth in Bouthwaite, on the lands of Bourthwaite Grange. Sykes was finished in 1459, at a cost of forty-two shillings and six pence [129] .Later William Horner was herdsman at Eastholme Lodge in 1481 [130] . In 1482 William held
a third part of Bourthwaite Grange known as Sikes
[131]
. William probably died before
1483 as his name is replaced by Thomas Horner
[132]
. It is possible that this Thomas Horner
of Grassington 1454 was the son
of William Horner. Another William Horner was
responsible for the Farm of the Tithe
of Corn and Hay of Pateley
Bridge in 1494 and paid arrears of 20
shillings
[133]
. Herds of cattle were regularly summered at
Note Cote, Kilnsey and wintered at Bewerley Rigg in Nidderdale
and it is highly possible that these Horners did travel between
Nidderdale and Wharfedale
[134]
. In 1480 at Newhouse Lodge in Dacre township a Roger Horner held
the tenancy
[135]
. Robert
Smyth held Bourthwaite Grange after the dissolution of the monasteries
[136]
. The lands were sold to William Gresham who
in 1592 sold the lands to the tenants of Kirkby Malzeard parish
[137]
. Although Gresham does not seem to have sold
any of the lands in Bourthwaite to Horners, in the seventeenth
century there are Horners living at Sykes Grange
[138]
. Land exchanges were not always peaceful in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries in Kirkby Malzeard Manor [139] . In 1598, there were disputes over the ownership of Grewelthorpe and Dallowgill Moors between Stephen Proctor, of Fountains Abbey, and William Ingilby, of Ripley. Stephen Proctor, was a newcomer to the area having gained Fountains Abbey in the 1540s and was regarded with suspicion due to his Puritan leanings. Proctor had attempted to enclose the lands, which resulted in riots in 1598. During a Star Chamber deposition, William Ingilby attested that attempts to enclose the moor in the 1530s had ended in a settlement which had preserved the rights of the tenants. This did not end the dispute as in 1604 Stephen Proctor attested that there had been four attempts to murder him and in 1606 there was a commission of enquiry into the lands. In 1607, the Earl of Salisbury persuaded the Earl of Derby to sell 450 acres of Grewelthorpe Moor to Stephen Proctor who promptly enclosed it. During the night, the tenants of Kirkby Malzeard destroyed the ditches. In 1608 Proctor accused Sir John Yorke and Sir John Mallory of charges of inciting four hundred Kirkby Malzeard tenants outside Middlesmoor Church, to destroy the enclosures on Shelden in Dallowgill. Named with these gentry were a Peter Horner, Stephen Horner and George Horner. There was also a deposition from George Horner and William Servant, both of Bosjan. A
George Horner was sold lands in Thwaite, Thrope, and Lofthouse
in 1597 who may be the same man
[140b]
. Peter, Stephen and George Horner were therefore tenants of Kirkby Malzeard Manor in 1608 but they were not named in the depositions of 1598. This may indicate that they were not tenants in 1598, or simply that they were tenants of Middlesmoor rather than Dallowgill and Grewelthorpe. However, a George Horner is named in deeds relating to lands in Dallowgill in 1606 and it is highly probable that he was one of those tenants who had their lands sold to Stephen Proctor on the insistence of the Earl of Salisbury [144] . This George Horner was probably also the tenant of Sir John Yorke who sold lands at Limley to the Baynes family in 1609 [145] . A George Horner is also named in the subsidy rolls of 1622, 1625 the forced loan of 1626 and the 1628 subsidy rolls [145a] .
The other Horners involved, Peter and Stephen, are difficult to identify.
A Stephen Horner of Winksley had a son, Thomas, christened in
Ripon parish in 1612 who may be the same Stephen Horner
[141]
. A Peter Horner, who may be connected, was married in Ripon parish
in 1604
[142]
. Whether these two gentlemen are those involved
in the Grewelthorpe riots is undetermined, however, it would appear
that disputes over lands in this area continued for some time.
A Thomas Horner and Nicholas Yoman, were querants, against John
Yorke and Julian his wife and Thomas Yorke gent. for two messuages
and lands in Middlesmoor and Staynemore between 1614 and 1625
[146]
.
A Roger Horner, bachelor, is recorded
as leasing Sykes Grange in 1669 when he made
his will in
1669 , who may be connected with Thomas Horner above
[149]
. A
Francis Horner of Sykes (or Sikes) was recorded in 1623-4
in the township of Stonebeck Down in Middlesmoor
[147]
. Francis was a yeoman farmer and may have been
part of the younger branch of the Horners of Woodale
[148]
. This may be the same Francis Horner recorded
in the 1625, 1626, and 1628 subsidy rolls
[148a]
. He had an income of at least £10 a year
as he was fined a composition for not taking a knighthood in the
reign of James I in 1631
[148b]
. In 1641 Francis Horner in the parish of Kirkby
Malzeard is recorded as a recusant
[148c]
. . Francis married Alice Dowson and had at
least two sons, John and Thomas, and five daughters in the 1620s
[150]
.
His
eldest
daughter Elizabeth Horner married Richard
Bayne of Limley in Netherdale in 1652, when she was
twenty-three years old
[151]
. Elizabeth Baynes nee Horner bore a family
of eight children
[152]
. She died in 1723 and was buried in Ripon Cathedral
[153]
. It is uncertain whether Elizabeth Horner took
part of the Horner patrimony with her to the Baynes family on
her marriage as part of her jointure. If she did, the lands in
question may have been situated in Limley, at Calfhow. In
1609, a George Horner sold the leaseholds of two farms,
leased from Sir John Yorke of Gowthwaite, in Limley, one
mile from Middlesmoor and Lofthouse respectively, to Walter
Bayne of Limley, for 3,000 years
[154]
. Walter’s grandson, Richard Bayne, inherited
the lands at Limley in 1651, the same year that he married
Elizabeth Horner
[155]
. These same lands in Limley seem to have been
sold by Richard Bayne of Limley to John Horner son of Francis
Horner of Sykes in the seventeenth century, but the exact
connection between John Horner of Sykes and the George Horner
of 1609 has not been established. It is perfectly possible
that Francis Horner of Sykes was the eldest son of George Horner. Francis’
son John Horner of Sykes married Ann Baynes, widow
Dawson, daughter of William Bayne of Limley, and sister to Richard
Bayne
[156]
. John Horner was the executor of the will of
Thomas Beckett in 1668, and held lands at Calfhow in Limley in
Netherdale in trust for Thomas Beckett’s son William
[157]
. It is interesting to speculate that this land
at Calfhow may have been part of the jointure of Elizabeth Horner
on her marriage to Richard Baynes. Alternatively, it may have
been the portion of another Horner sister who had married Thomas
Beckett. In the same year, Richard Baynes sold a substantial amount
of land in Limley and Middlesmoor to John Horner on a lease of
3,000 years for 110 shillings
[158]
. In December of 1668, an indenture clarifying
the sale was agreed between the two, and the price of the sale
had been reduced to 100 shillings
[159]
. The sale was changed again in 1672 when Richard
Bayne cancelled the earlier sale and granted to John Horner two
capital messuages at Limley and Middlesmoor
[163]
.
John
Horner
was described as a gentleman and his wealth must have come from
a combination of trade and inheritance. John Horner was dead by
1682 and is described as a gentleman, when he made his
will in 1681
[167]
. Two of John Honer of Sykes' sons, Mann and Francis did not have children, whilst a third, William, moved to Beverley, where he became a dyer [167d] . William married and had at least two sons [167e] . Francis trained as an attorney but died young [167f] . Mann Horner, was a wholesale grocer and was described as a freeman in 1704 in York. Mr Mann Horner, grocer, died unmarried and was buried in York in 1715 [175] . A Mann Horner, grocer, and his brother John Horner of Sykes, clerk, were both members of the Merchant Adventurers of York in 1712 [174] .
John Horners eldest son was also named John Horner and
was probably only fifteen when his father died
[168]
. Just after his father’s death, he and his
mother Anne sold the messuages at Limley
to Matthew King, whose family held the lands until 1743
[169]
.John went to Pembroke College Cambridge and
was ordained as a priest in 1694
[176]
. John and Jane Horner had a large family of nine children. Of the five daughters, little is known of Jane, Isobel and Ann Horner [171a] .Elizabeth Horner married Ralph King of Limley, perhaps reuniting Horner lands sold to Matthew King in 1682 [171b] . Reverend John's two son's Francis and Richard Horner were both privates in the Household Guards and both died unmarried. This would indicate that the salary of a curate was not large enough to purchase a commission for his sons. His son Mann born in 1698 may have died in infancy [172] . Mann is a very unusual name [173] .John Horner of Sykes named one of his sons after his brother Mann Horner of York. The only son who survived to adulthood, married and had children was John Horner christened in 1697 [172] . Whatever the connection, the Reverend Horners eldest son John Horner appears to have moved to Hull and had had four sons Wilks, Mann, Francis and John Horner christened in Hull [177] . He was probably involved in the wine and spirits trade as a Mr Horner’s distillery was inspected for fire hazards by the bench of Hull in 1741 [178] .A Henry Horner of Hull wine cooper, who may be connected, leased two messuages on Highgate in Hull in 1744 [180] . He bought 2 hogsheads of wine in 1776 [181] . This Henry Horner was also an overseer of the poor of Holy Trinity [182] . The
youngest son Wilks Horner was born in Hull,
and moved to Leeds before his marriage in 1761
[182a]
. Wilks had at least three children in
Leeds, a son, Benjamin, and two daughters, but Benjamin Horner
died without issue. Wilks does not appear to have been involved
in the wine trade, but moved into the textile trade in Leeds in
the eighteenth century. In 1760, Wilks Horner and a Joshua
Turner held stocks of woollen cloth and wool valued at £350 by
the Sun Insurance Company
[185]
. This is the same company which was described
as ‘Horner and Co. in 1782 in Leeds. On 30 December
1786 the partnership between Wilks Horner, Joshua Turner and George
Keighley was dissolved by mutual consent
[186]
. Wilks Horner died in Leeds in 1803, having
outlived his wife by only two years
[187]
. It is interesting to note that Horner and
Turner were bankers in the eighteenth century
[188]
.
A
Mann
Horner was in the wine trade and was a wine merchant
in London in 1744, who may be connected
[189]
.The wine trade seemed to follow the same route
as the textile trade of the sixteenth century and the Horners
appear to have had extensive and longstanding connections in Spain
as they had a warehouse Horners House
in Lisbon. Mann Horner also appears to have worked
for the East
India Company in the 1740s and shipped supplies
to Fort St David and Canton
[190]
. [123] Bourthwaite is across the River Nidd from Ramsgill. Below Bourthwaite is the town of Coville House farm, above Bourthwaite, near Lofthouse is Low Sikes and High Sikes. See ordnance survey map. [124] In 1453 he was given six shillings for the sale of a cow, in 1454 nine shillings for the sale of a cow with a calf. In 1456 he was given fifteen shillings for two cows, one for the community and one cooked. See JT Fowler Vol3, p. 130, 135, p.178. Interestingly the Skaiffe family was also resident in Bourthwaite Grange in 1484. This could denote a long association between the two. [125] He was also given four shillings for a ‘Stirkett’, and seven pence for the sale of a ‘Butiro’. See JT Fowler Vol. 3, p. 113, [126] For which he was given three shillings in 1454 and three shillings and eight pence in 1458. See JT Fowler Vol. 3.p.109 and 57. [127] See JT Fowler Vol. 3, p. 55. [128] See JT Fowler, Vol. 3. p. 83. At the Dissolution the Grange of Callfall House was given to William Benson, and a Miles Benson held the other moiete. In 1574 Calf-feld house was owned by Sir Thomas Gresham and in the occupation of William Inman and Robert Benson. William Inman died in 1614 and his son John Inman bought both moieties in 1617. See Speight, Garden, p. 478. [129] Fountains Abbey Lease Book p. 267. [130] See Fountains Abbey Memorials pp. 318-9. He may be related to the William Horner ‘capellani’ of Pateley Bridge’ in 1481 when he walked the boundaries of Ripon in 1481. See Ripon Acts of Chapter. Pp. 337-9. [131] William Horner, Robert Browne and John Seargeant held the lease. Fountains Abbey leasebook. [132] Fountains Abbey Lease Book, p. 198-9. [133] Memorials of Ripon, Vol. III, p. 335-7. These were part of an Inquistion in 1609 into the prebend of Studley, once held by Ripon cathedral, which had been given to William Ingleby by lease under the Duchy of Lancaster on 4 February 1588. William Ingleby surrendered the lease in 1598. [134] See Yorkshire monasteries, by Jennings, p. 108. [135] Richard Bolton and Roger Horner held the tenancy in 1483. By 1484 Roger Horner and Richard Atkinson held the tenancy. Fountains Abbey Lease Book. [136] For the following see Speight, Upper Nidderdale, p. 306. Robert Smyth held an appurtenance encompassing Longesyd, the Arks, the Stubbeye, New Ing, Forshote, Briggeholme, Broding, Little Ing, Crokydholme, orpings Fold, Hsyllhirst, Bromerhouse fell, Hethercalfe Fal, When Carre, Thretefeld, Crishe cose etc. worth about twelve pounds. The Smyths were also at Aldfield and Cayton in Ripon Parish. A Thomas Smythe also held land in Conistone in 1583. It is highly probable that there is a connection. [137] John Tophane of Thripland, William Inman, John Bayne, Roger Thackray, Thomas Buckle and Christopher Rayner the elder bought Westholme House and parcels of Bourthwaite including Lofthouse, for seven hundred and 10 pounds. [138] On modern ordnance survey maps this area is represented by the farms of Old Sikes and Low Sikes, just below Lofthouse. [139] For the following accounts of the disputes at Grewelthorpe and Dallowgill Moors see The Ripon Historian, and the Star Chamber depositions 8/4/3 in 1598 and 8/20/27 in 1611.

Richard Horner marries an Anne Burton on 3 February 1627 in Ripon. IGI. Roger Horner of Sykesgrange, bachelor’s will was proved in 1669. the Northern genealogist. [150] Marriage information from Sue Ladipo. [151] She was born in 1628, and died on 23 April 1723 aged 95. See Lucas p. 426. [152] Her eldest son William Baynes was born in 1653. See Lucas p. 426. [153] According to Lucas, p. 444 the memorial erected to her memory reads…’ Here lieth the body of Mrs. Elizabeth Baynes who died 23 April 1723 aged 95. She was the daughter of Mr Francis Horner of Sykes and the wife of Mr RD Baynes of Limley in Netherdale, by whom she had four sons, William, Walter, Richard and Francis and four daughters, Dorothy, Alice, Judith and Elizabeth. The Stone was laid by her second son Walter Baynes of Middle Temple, London, esquire.’. [154] The lease was dated 26 September 1609 and Sir John Yorke and his wife Dame Julian demised the farm at Limley to Walter Bayne of Limley yeoman. The ancient messuages were leased for an annual rent of £5 for 3,000 years. One of the farms was named Jennats. See Lucas p. 408. See Ripon Millenary Record, p. 249. [155] The Bayne family are apparently descended from Donald II of Scotland, nicknamed Bayne. (1093-1099). His great-great grandson hid in Yorkshire about 1182 on one of the Scottish raids in How Stean Cave. In 1361 a John Bayne leased a cottage at Kirkby Malzeard for a rent of 16d a year and a days work at 1 and a half pence. The landlord was Fountains Abbey. See Speight Garden, p. 491. In 1484 when the church at Middlesmoor was consecrated a John Bayne, Ralph Bayne, senior, Miles Bayne and Ralph Bayne, junior had agreed terms with the vicar of Kirkby Malzeard. By 1536 a Marmaduke Bayne was bailiff for Nidderdale for Fountains and Byland Abbeys. This earnt him 40 shillings a year. See Grainge, Nidderdale, p. 147-9. Walter Bayne of Limley died in 1615, and his eldest son William inherited the lands at Limley. His will was dated 7 May 1615. See Lucas p. 425. William Bayne died in 1651 and left his lands in Limley to his second son Richard Bayne. William Bayne of Limley dated his will 22 March 1650/1, it was proved 20 June 1651. His eldest son Walter Bayne had predeceased him without issue. See Lucas p. 425. In his will Richard Bayne’s father William left land to his brother Christopher Bayne, his sister Anne Dowson, widow and William Hebden his brother in law. See Lucas p. 425. [156] Anne was buried on 20 July 1719 a widow. Middlesmoor Registers quoted by Lucas from Grainge p. 445. July1647 Administration of John Bayne late of Coxwold granted to Ann Dowson, widow, sister and creditor of the said deceased for the use of Ursula Bayne the relict. Taken from Bulmer’s Act Book York and quoted in Baine – a thin volume seen at the Genealogical Society. [157] On 29 May 1668 an indenture was drawn up between Richard Bayne of Limley, gentleman and John Horner of Sykes in Netherdale gentleman. On the 1 June 1668, Richard Bayne ‘quiett possession’ of one close called little Calfhow and surrendered the land to John Horner to give to William Beckett’. See Lucas p.408, 436. [158] This indenture was dated the 29 May 1668. For 110 shillings Richard Bayne of Limley gave ‘all that capital messauage or tenement house wherein the said Richard now lieth and that pasture called ‘Haggines’- 4 acres, and the Teatheran- 6acres, and Broad Ing- 16 acres, and Rye Close- 9 acres, and seven cattle gates in Limley pasture and 12 and a half cattlegates in Middlesmoor pasture of Inn Moor pasture to have and to hold unto John Horner of Sykes for 3,000 years. Yielding an annual rent of £3 11/- to the Lord or Lords.’ See Lucas p. 436-7. [159] On 29 December 1669 an indenture between Richard Bayne of Limley and John Horner of Sykes.’ Richard Bayne hath for 100 shillings demised to John Horner all the West End of the messuage in Limley where Baynes doth dwell, the moyiete of half of one barne or laythe standing nears one garth called Great Garth, one little garth lying on the back side of the Peat house or Ingle House, the rye close, one other close, with appurtenanaces’. This was to go to John Horner from 30 November 1669 for 3,000 years with John paying to the heirs of John Yorke 37/- and six pence. See Lucas p. 437-8.

One letter mentions slaves so this was probably on the slave trade route. This Thomas married a Sarah and they had two sons and two daughters christened in Barbados at St Michael’s church. Mary Horner was christened on 21 December 1682, Thomas Horner on 7 March 1678, Sarah Horner was christened on 18 August 1675 and Richard was christened on 8 August 1681. IGI C513951. He may also be the same man who witnessed the transfer of land of Roger Horner of Skar House. If so they may be brothers. [161] LEIGH OF STONELEIGH Catalogue Ref.
