1695 TAX CENSUSES for KINGSBRIDGE HUNDRED AND PART OF ELSTUB & EVERLEIGH HUNDRED

Tax assessment lists have been transcribed into alphabetical order of the surnames of the householder, but as there are sometimes more than one surname in a household, the additional surname is also listed and will show with which family it is to be be found. In cases where two or more families or several individuals are grouped together it may be that they share a dwelling and are not necessarily related.

There does not appear to have been a prescribed format for enumerating and the form of listing often differs from parish to parish, from tything to tything and from one year to the next within the same parish. Spelling also varies from year to year with the same parish.

Because of the tax on bachelors and widowers they were often grouped together, and not with the rest of their families.

Some lists recorded relationships. For instance in Chiseldon lists the head of the household is given followed by the name of the wife and sons and daughters. This is particularly useful in the case of this parish as there is a gap in the parish registers from 1698 - 1707, and, therefore, families can be reconstructed. For Liddington only the 1700 and 1701 lists give relationships and Wootton Bassett has only the relationship of the wife. Little Hinton gives the wife's name plus the number of children.

In the lists for Lydiard Tregoze it is difficult to be certain of the family groups and it is possible that names may appear as individuals when they are in fact related. In the 1700 list for Lyneham there has been no attempt at family groups and for Tockenham most of the surnames are grouped together without family grouping. The parish of Clyffe Pypard was divided into the four tythings of Cleeve Peppar, Broad Town, Thomhill and Oadhill.

The first three lists for Swindon give the occupation of the head of the house. A few such as Wanborough gives the amounts assessed indicating a taxable event such as a marriage and the status of me person. Most include the servants name with the household but Wroughton only gives the forename, no surnames being included.

Bincknoll and Uffcott are only small parts of Broad Hinton parish but are all that appears to have survived. Uffcott is included in the Five Tythings. The 1697 list for Hilmarton. which does not include the tything of Catcomb, was used for a second assessment as some names were added and some crossed out.

The Five Tythings of Uffcot in Broad Hinton, Eicombe, Overtown, Salthrop & Westlecot in Wroughton Parish are all listed together within the same year but with variations in the information given in each tything.

These tax assessments are deposited at Wiltshire Record Office WRO 212B/7202A.

From C.F.Goddard & John Goddards unpublished history of the Wiltshire Goddards (c) J Goddard

The Brind family

There is an interesting connection between the Goddards of Swindon and another family, the Brinds of Wanborough. When Richard Goddard* of Swindon died in 1732, he had living with him two ladies named Margaret and Dorothy Brind, two of the five daughters of Thomas and Dorothy Brind of Wanborough. The family was an old one whose name does not occur in Court Rolls or parish assessments after the middle of the eighteenth century. Richard Goddard made two wills, the first dated 26th June 1718 and the second 22nd September 1730 with a codicil dated 16th August 1732.

* Richard Goddard was MP for Wootton Bassettl710-13,High Sheriff 1714, and MP for Wiltshire 1720-26. His father, Thomas (died 1710) was High Sheriff in 1675.

In his first will he bequeathed the Swindon estate, he being a widower and childless,to his brother Pleydell at whose death, if he died without issue it was to pass to Margaret Brind who was then to assume the name Goddard. In both his first and second wills he described both these sisters as cousins and kinswomen, making considerable provision for them both. The question therefore arises as to how they were related to him and the Swindon family at that time. Every effort has been made to discover this, but without success. In the Aldbourne marriage register there is a record of a marriage in 1637 between Alice Goddard of Aldbourne and a William Brind of Wanborough, which may have established a relationship, but who this Alice Goddard was it has not been possible to discover. The two Brind sisters and a third, Mary, (who married Rev. John Broadway, Vicar of Swindon 1728-37) were all buried in the south aisle of the old church at Swindon, and tablets to their memory are now on the walls of the chancel.

It is interesting to note at this point that the surname of Richard Goddard's wife Mary has never been discovered.

Dispute over succession

Margaret Brind, however, never in fact inherited the Swindon estate from Richard owing to his second will and codicil, and the succession gave rise to a dispute in the family. By this will and codicil, Richard bequeathed the estate to his only surviving brother Pleydell and if he died without issue, as he did, to their cousin Ambrose Goddard of Rudloe Manor in the parish of Box. Ambrose was the great-grandson of Richard's great-great- uncle Edward of Inglesham. When Pleydell died in 1742 Ambrose took possession of the estate in accordance with Richard's will, but Edmond Goddard of London, who was the grandson of Richard's great uncle Thomas of Beckhampton and therefore a closer relation to Richard, being a first cousin once removed instead of twice, contested Ambrose Goddard's right to the estate. Edmond however withdrew his claim to do this in 1741. Soon after this he again contested Ambrose's rights, this time in relation to certain lands which, having been bought after the date of Richard's will, he claimed as Richard and his brother Pleydell's next of kin. After some years of dispute, Ambrose finally conceded this land to Edmond in 1749. It seems likely that Richard left the Swindon estate to his cousin Ambrose rather than his nearer cousin Edmond (should Pleydell died childless, which he did) because the former was better known to him, was well known in Wiltshire where he had property, and had several sons to succeed him, while Edmond was a stranger to Wiltshire and childless.

Some years back two letters written by Richard's father Thomas (died 1710) of Swindon, were found at the Lawn. Theyare both rather amusing and were addressed to Bullen Reyners, Junior, of Whadden, Oxfordshire, who was then residing with a Mr Edward Goddard "Goldsmyth in the pavd. alley over against S.Alban's Streete in Pell Mall, London".

The first is as follows:-
"11 March 1684. Deare Angell, I am not yet in a condition to wright long epist, or to express myselfe other than "Quig'd Valeam", having been downstairs two daies and now againe under confinement of chamber and between whiles in miserable restless Torture. Ye other daiye, to procure present ease I lost about 30 ounces
