Roger Manners bc1535- d1607 of Uffington inherited the manors of Linton on Ouse & Yolton Yorks, Esquire of the body to Mary Tudor & Elizabeth I . He never married, nor was he knighted. Refered to as Mr Roger Manners, he nevertheless became in his later years the recognized head of a family which included half the court and some of the nobility, and from choice or from necessity, he often had to intervene with the Queen on behalf of one or the other of them. His loyalty to the Queen brought from her reciprocated regard, material rewards in the form of leases and properties, granting, sooner or later, all his request for others. When in his old age, he was prostrated with grief over the part in the Essex Rebellion by his 3 grandnephews, Elizabeth sent a courtier with a 'very princely and gratius messayge' to comfort him. He also had the loyalty of Robert Cecil, later Earl of Salisbury. www.tudorplace.com.ar/Bios/RogerMannersofUffington(Esq.).htm
