Weston Master, 15, 17, 18, 37, 38, _bis_, 44, 46, 50, 78, 86, 98, 126, 150, _bis_, 186, 227, 229, 232, 248, 265, 271, 272, 274, 275, 277, 278. So little is known of the family of this individual, that the following particulars may be useful. He was the eldest son of Sir Richard Weston, of Sutton, Co. Surry, Knt. who in the Herald's Visitations of that county, is styled "Miles pro corpore, Magister Wardorum, Thesaurar' Calisie, et Sub-Thesaurar' Angliæ." Sir Francis Weston was a Knight of the Bath, and Gentleman of the Privy Chamber, and fell a victim to a supposed criminal intimacy with Queen Anne Boleyn, in 1536. He married Eleanor, widow of Sir Henry Knyvet, Knt. and daughter and sole heiress of Eleanor, (the daughter and heiress of Sir Roger Lewknor, Knt. one of the co-heirs of the Barony of Camois,) by her first husband, Sir Christopher Pickering, Knt. By her, who remarried to her third husband, John Vaughan, of Crickhowell, and died in 1582, Sir Francis Weston left issue a son, Sir Henry Weston, Knt.: he was living in 1582, and had one son, Sir Richard Weston, and two daughters, Jane and Anne. Sir Richard was living in 1608, and his son Sir Richard was residing at Sutton in 1623, and by Grace, his wife, daughter, and heir of John Harper, of Chelston, in Co. Hereford, had issue Richard, then æt. 5, John, Henry, and Francis. The descendants of Sir Francis Weston here mentioned are supposed to be extinct; and Mr. Lodge informs us that in 1782, William Webb, Esq. assumed the name of Weston, in compliance with the will of Mrs. Melior Mary Weston, the last of that ancient family.--_Illustrations_, vol. i. p. 30, note. See also the _Gentleman's Magazine_, vol. lii. p. 312. These entries shew the high favor in which he stood with the King. Cavendish makes him say, "I was dayntely noryshed under the king's wyng, Who highly favored me and loved me so well That I had all my will and lust in every thyng, Mynding nothing less than chaunce of my endyng; And for my dethe that present is nowe here, I looked not for, this fyvetie or thre-score yere."

Probably Henry, the son of Sir Francis and Lady Weston, mentioned in the preceding note.
