Sir Abraham Dawes (d. ca. 1640)


- Sir Abraham Dawes was the eldest son of John Dawes (?of Bedford)

- "Sir Abraham Dawes, Knt., eldest son and heir, was one of the farmers of the customs, temp. Car. I. and was one of the most eminent men of his time: he, and Sir Paul Pindar, Sir John Wolstenholme, and Sir John Jacob, had assigned them (a) from Philip Burlimachi, the impositions laid by way of subsidy, on sugars, called Muscovadoes, St. Thomas's, white sugars refin'd, and unrefin'd, &c. for which , Burlimachi, had a greant from K. Charles I. Sir Abraham, was a very great royalist, and suffered greatly in the cicil wars; he was stiled of Putney, in Surry, and of London: and married Judith, daughter of Thomas Wright, of the county of Salop, Gent. by whom he had two sons; 1. Thomas, aetat. 26, 1630; and 2. John, aetat. 13, 1630; also one daughter, Jane, married to Elkin Wymondesold, of Southwell, in com. Nott. Esq: father of Sir Dawes Wymondesold, Knt."[19]

- Sir Abraham Dawes left a bequest in his will for the creation of almshouses at Putney



Dunston(Dunstan Duck (d. ca. 1650)


Lysons cites from a newspaper, Perfect Occurences, Aug. 27-Sept. 3: "Lieutenant Colonel Cowell, at Mr. Duck's"[20]



John Gough (d. 1630)


"John Gough of Putney, Surrey, gent. May 11, 1630. Bur. at St. Benet Paul's Wharf, L. nr. my late w. Ann & others my freinds & predecessors; my w. Isabel exec...my copyhold in Putney of manor of Wimbleton, in occ. of Phil. Burlamachi, esq...."[21]



Smith


- Steeven Smyth is listed on the 1626 map

Lysons cites from a newspaper, Perfect Occurences, Aug. 27-Sept. 3: "Judge Advocate, at Mr. George Smith's"[22]




Henry White (d. ca. 1658)


- Appointed High sheriff of Surrey, 1653

Lysons cites from a newspaper, Perfect Occurences, Aug. 27-Sept. 3: "Commissary General of Victuals, at Mr. White's." Lysons adds a footnote on Mr White's house: "This house now belongs to Mrs. Douglas Pettiward, widow of the late Roger Pettiward, D.D. The Pettiwards came to Putney by the intermarriage of John Pettiward, Esq. with Sarah, daughter and heir of Mr. White here mentioned. Amongst the vicissitudes which usually befall a parish so near the metropolis, they are the only family who were setled here in the last century. Henry White was appointed high sheriff of the county, by the parliament, in 1653. The Pettiwards appear to have taken the opposite side. Roger Pettiward, Esq. of Putney, was returned as one of the persons to be elected Knights of the Roayal Oak, when it was in contemplation to create such an order after the Restoration....Mrs. Pettiward is in possession of a portrait of Henry White, Esq. who is represented in his high sheriff's dress, and two excellent pictures of the celebrated Lord Falkland, by Cornelius Jansen; and Sir Abraham Dawes, by the same master. Sir Abraham was one of the farmers of the customs, an eminent loyalist, and one of the richest commoners of his time. In the splendor and magnificence of his housekeeping, he vied with the first of the nobility (Biograph. Brit. article Crispe, in the notes.) He lived at Putney in a house which he had built on some land which he purchased of Mr. Roger Gwyn. The house was pulled down about four years ago."[23]



M:r ?Willm Woman?sealls/William Wymondesold (d. ca. 1664)


Lysons cites from a newspaper, Perfect Occurences, Aug. 27-Sept. 3: "The General (Fairfax) at Mr. Wimondsold's, the high sheriff." Lyson adds in a footnote: "Mr. Wymondsold's house now belongs to Mrs D'Aranda, as appears from her title deeds. It was purchased by Paul D'Aranda, Esq. of the trustees of Sir Theodore Jansen, Bart. previously to whom it had been the property of the Wymondsolds. On the same site was anciently a mansion belonging to the Welbecks, several of which family lie buriedin the chancel at Putney. The present house as built in the year 1596, by John Lacy, citizen and clothworker, as appears from the records of the manor of Wimbledon. The cieling of the drawing-room is ornamented with the clothworkers' arms. A survey of Putney, taken in the year 1617, describes this house as "a fair edifice in which his "Majesty had been." James I. was of the clothworkers' company, a circumstance, probably, which occasioned the visit there recorded."[24]



Putney, Surrey, Lysons, 1792


"The waste land is vey extensive, consisting of a small common adjoining to that of Barnes, the whole of Putney heath, and the greater part of Wimbledon common, in which the parishes are marked out by posts placed from north to south. The cultivated land is principally arable, including about 120 acres, occupied by the market gardeners, and thirty employed as nursery grounds by Mr. Howey. Two hundred and thirty acres of Richmond-park are in this parish, two hundred of which are cultivated. The soil of this place consists chiefly of sand and gravel; there is some clay. The parish of Putney, exlusive of the hamlet of Roehampton, is assessed at the sum of 599 /. 12 s. 7d. to the land tax, which this year, (1792,) isat the rate of 1s 3d. in the pound."[25]

  29. Book description: "This book is based on a comprehensive house-by-house list of Putney and Roehampton’s inhabitants in 1665 (a hearth tax return). It combines this with the plentiful evidence from Nicholas Lane’s map of 1636 and parish and other records to provide a more detailed picture of the parish and its people - both rich and poor - than is possible for any other period before the nineteenth century. It describes the people, how they earned their livings and how they were housed, and examines the impact of the metropolis, the Thames and the plague of 1665 on the community. A street directory links the people and their homes to contemporary and modern maps"; Book author: "Dorian Gerhold is a House of Commons Clerk. He has written extensively on Putney, as well as on Wandsworth, Westminster Hall, road transport before the railways and other historical subjects. He is Chairman of Wandsworth Historical Society, a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society and a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries."
