Sir George Wandesford died on the fifth of September 1612, and was buried at the church of St Andrew, Holborn. […] Sir George married secondly, Mary, daughter of Robert Pamplyn, citizen of London and of Lymington in the county of Hants, a sister of his brother William’s wife. With her he had a son William, baptized at Kirklington, 26th August 1605 ; and Margaret, who was married to James Planchard. The widow renounced, in 1613, all right or claim upon her late husband’s estate.

There is also a grant from King Charles1 dated at State Papers. Westminster, 28th June 1628, conveying to Dame Mary, widow of Sir George Wandesford, and to William Wandesford, the lands of Hilsea and Portsea and all other lands in the county of Hampshire surrounded by the sea, in consideration of the long service done to the King’s predecessors by Robert Pamplyn, deceased, late yeoman of his Majesty’s robes, father of Dame Mary and of Margaret, wife of the said William. It appears from the State Papers that Dame Mary Wandesford had fenced in a portion of these grounds with a sea-wall, but was much troubled by certain persons who had pulled down the wall and committed other trespasses upon her rights. She appealed to the Privy Council, and several Orders on the subject were made in the years 1636 and 1637.

On the 1816 “Plan of the Ordnance Lands at Hilsea”, there’s a caption “[something] whole Line of this Sea Wall is in very bad Repair” (the map’s torn) just south of the Lines on the border of Hilsea and Langstone Harbour. You’ve got to wonder…

The family relationships are hard to follow here because two brothers married two sisters, and one of the couples had children they named for the other couple.
