Sir Richard Long, Knt. An account of him will be found in Mr.
Gage's _History and Antiquities of Hengrave_, p. 119, from which
it appears that he was a Gentleman of the Privy Chamber, Master of
the buckhounds and hawks, High Steward or Keeper of several of the
royal demesnes, and Captain of Guernsey. He was seated at Shengay
and Hardwicke in Cambridgeshire, and married Margaret, only child
of John Donnington, of Stoke Newington in Middlesex, and widow of
Sir Thomas Kytson of Hengrave, who died in 1540, by whom he had a
son, Henry, born 31 March, 1544, afterwards knighted, and to whom
King Henry VIII. and the Duke of Norfolk were sponsors, and three
daughters. Sir Richard Long died in October, 1544, and an abstract
of his will is given in that admirable work. His widow married
to her third husband John Bourchier, Earl of Bath, and died 12
January, 1561, æt. 52. Elizabeth, the daughter and heiress of Sir
Henry Long, his son, married William Lord Russell, of Thornhaugh.
