Description
Excerpt from An Account of the Boynton Family: And the Family Seat of Burton Agnes
To write an account of a family like that Of Boynton is by no means easy, from the fact that the members have lived for the most part the lives of quiet country gentlemen, thoroughly interested in, and enjoying country pursuits, leaving politics and other affairs that draw men into the light of public know ledge, more or less alone. With the exception of Henry Boynton who was Opposed to King Henry IV, and Sir Matthew Boynton, the first Baronet, with his son Matthew, both of whom gained notoriety during the Civil War. Of the 17th century, we cannot call any of the family historic characters. All this makes it hard to identify the various members and their relationship one to another in the earlier generations.
