Ruins of Dudley castle, with some walls 8 feet thick date from the l3th century, and rise above magnificent woodlands. In a wooded valley below Castle Hill are the ruins of a Norman Priory. The dominating Church of St. Thomas the Apostle, built in l8l7, has a graceful spire and above the marble altar is a carving of St. Thomas by Samuel Joseph, who also has works in Westminister Abbey. A National Nature Reserve is located l mile north?west of Dudley Castle which contains fossils of creatures at least 300 million years old.

    I am researching members of the Bagley family from Dudley in the C17th. John Bageley (sic) was the father of Edward, Dudley, John Bagley and others and was closely associated with Edward Sutton, Lord Dudley.

    Edward's son, also Edward Bagley, became a pewterer in London and was the principal beneficiary of Lady Elizabeth Bernand's will when her Stratford upon Avon estate was sold in 1675. Elizabeth Hall, as she was born, was the only child of Susanna Shakespeare, William Shakespeare's eldest child and heiress, and John Hall, physician. She married twice, firstly to Thomas Nash and secondly, John (later Sir John) Bernard or Barnard) of Abington, Northampton. She was Shakespeare's last direct descendant.

    My research is involved in establishing the family connection of the Bagleys to Lady Bernard.

    Apart from the mention of John Bagley in the register for St.Thomas which you mention, he is also found several times in the Churchwardens Book for St. Thomas 1618-1725. This also mentions some other mayors, which may help fill some of the gaps in your list for some of these years. For example, on p.151 for 24 March 1667, Edmund Wells is named as mayor. Thomas Wells, his son, also mentioned in the book, married Dudley Bagley's granddaughter, Grace. Other mayors mentioned include, Oliver Dixon Maior April 22nd 1690 (who you already have listed), John Bowers Mayer 5 April 1670 and Will Lowe meare April 21 1674.
    John Bagley, Edward's grandfather, was probably employed initially by Edward Sutton, Lord Dudley to look after some of his interests, but seems to have prospered and become a substantial property and landowner.

    Lord Dudley, whilst married, had a mistress, Elizabeth Tomlinson, who bore him between 11 and 14 children. One of these, Dudley Dudley is well known and documented as a pioneer of smelting iron with coke. Although, so many of his children were born out of wedlock, Lord Dudley provided for them and most married gentry. Dugdale's Visitation of Staffordshire in 1662/3 provides information on these offspring at that time. However, he spent so much of the family fortune on his interests in iron works with his son Dudley, that the family verged on bankruptcy and he was compelled to marry his legitimate daughter, Frances, to a wealthy Londoner, Humble Ward, who became the first Lord of Birmingham. The Sutton line passed down this route and the Wards are, I believe, still the successors of the ancient and distinguished Dudley Sutton family.

    There is a strong possibility that John Bagley married a relative, probably a sister, Ann or Agnes Tomlinson, of Elizabeth Tomlinson. Edward Bagley, John's eldest son, had children Ann, Suttone, Edward and John. The last three are stated as with his wife Olive. Edward was to become an apprentice pewterer in 1656 and eventually the beneficiary of lady Bernard's will. Ann, who was the first born in 1634, it is claimed married a man called Brinton, became a Quaker and emigrated to America. From this line it is claimed, descended Richard Nixon. I have not pursued this line of enquiry, as it was not directly relevant to my own research, but I know that it has been researched by various American researchers and that there has been considerable controversy over the relationship of the Tomlinson women as this impacts on the descendants of Ann Bagley in terms of their connection to the noble line of the Dudley Suttons.

    John Taplin
