Description
Slide 2 - Burton Agnes came to the Boyntons through the marriage of Sir Matthew Boynton of Barmston with the daughter of Sir Henry Griffiths of Burton Agnes.
Sir Francis Boynton of Barmston, son and successor of Sir Matthew Boynton succeeded to Burton Agnes and came to reside there in February 1654, on the death of his maternal uncle, Sir Henry Griffith, Bart. From that time forward successive baronets have lived on their paternal estates.
