Individuals of this name have been resident at Chippenham, Wilts, since John Goldney, of Cliippenham, was appointed keeper of the king's park at Abberley, Wore, in 1485. Henry Goldney, of Bristol, was a burgess in the parliaments of Henry VI. 1421, 1425, and 1427; his wUl was proved at Bristol in 1430. About the middle of the 16th century the family of Fame- weUe, alias Golilney, appears on the borough records in tlie per- son of Henry FameweU, alias Goldney, of Chippenham, yeo- man (possibly son of Adam Famewell). Tbis Henry was ap- pointed the first bailiff of Chippenham by Q. Mary's charter of incorporation 1553, the same year in which he represented the borougli in parliament; later on, in 1609, a Gabriel FameweU, alias Goldney, of Cliippenham, was its baiUff, and the borough records before referreil to testify that he was a benefactor to the town. It is probable that he was iilentical with the Gabriel, with which this pedigree commences, viz. GABRIEL FARNEWELL, alias GOLDNEY, of Chippenham, yeoman, baiUff 1621, 1627, and 1633, recorded as a bene- factor to the town in the borough books ; bur. there 28 April, 1639, having m. 28 July, 1588, Elizabeth, dau. of Robert Wrot- tesley, and had 3 sous and 2 daus. /I/ Gabriel, of whom presently. /2/ John Famewell, aUas Goldnev, of Cliippenham; bp. 2 Feb. 1596; m. 1618, Mary, ilau. of William Gale, bailiff of Chippen- ham; she d. 1653, leaving issue.
