By John Baldwin will, which he made on 11 Oct. 1545, a week before his death, Baldwin disposed of his landed property in three shares, his only son William having predeceased him in 1538 leaving no heir. For the wardship of one grandson, John Burlace, and the primer seisin of another, Thomas, son of Robert Pakington, the crown was to have the manors of Aylesbury, Broughton and Upton; another part, including lands in Oxfordshire and Wiltshire, was set aside for the performance of the will; and most of the remainder went to his unmarried daughter Alice, the last abbess of the Augustinian house at Burnham, Buckinghamshire, for her life. He named Alice sole executrix and his brother-in-law Sir Robert Dormer and his cousin William Galy overseers, and made many small bequests of money and goods to friends and relatives. He was buried beside his first wife in Aylesbury church, where his daughter Alice, who died in the following year, directed that a marble tomb should be erected over the grave. In October 1545 the Earl of Hertford wrote to Sir William Paget asking that William Wroughton, Baldwin’s stepson, might have custody of his mother, who ‘hath been of long abstracted of her wits’, but three months later she was committed to the widow of Sir George Carew. Aylesbury passed to Baldwin’s grandson Thomas Pakington, and in Mary’s reign became a parliamentary borough under that family’s patronage.9
