'Wiltshire Farming in the Seventeenth Century' ; "On 5 May 1621 Thomas WALROND and others replied to the complaint of Henry MARTIN . He stated that he had a lease of Aldbourne Chase from William, ..."

From: 'Parishes: Aldbourne', A History of the County of Wiltshire: Volume 12: Ramsbury and Selkley
"A farm, apparently held freely of Aldbourne manor and called WALROND'S in the 16th century, descended with the keepership of the chase. Both were held before 1311 by William Walrond and were settled in 1326 on William or his namesake with remainder to his or the namesake's son John. In 1350 John Ellis granted them to his son Roger, whose son Robert held them in 1358. They were conveyed to John Newbury in 1365 and to Thomas Restwold in 1379. Restwold conveyed them in 1406 to John Gerard who granted them in 1410 to Lewis John. In 1417 Lewis conveyed them to Sir William Esturmy (d. 1427). In the 15th century or the early 16th the lands again passed to members of the Walrond or Waldron family. Ingram Walrond was succeeded by his son William (fl. 1527) and later by Thomas Walrond (fl. 1532). Thomas was succeeded c. 1553 by his son Thomas (will proved 1558) and later by that Thomas's son Thomas (will proved 1569). The farm and keepership passed to the youngest Thomas's son George (fl. 1611). In 1622 another Thomas Walrond and Alexander Thistlethwaite, perhaps trustees, sold the keepership and probably the farm to William Herbert, earl of Pembroke (d. 1630).

In Burke's Commoners (Goddard of Cliffe Pypard) there is a Anne Goddard (prbly born ~1600) who married Thomas Walrond esq of Albourn, and had issue ; Thomas, Edward, Katherine. Not sure which Thomas is which though. Walter Goddard was in Aldbourne in 1234. At http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~hwbradley/aqwg261.htm#4147 there is a Richard Goddard who married Elizabeth Walrond though , she dau of Thomas Walrond esq b 1532 in Aldbourne and Alice Prater born 1535 in Latton, Wilts.

Thomas# married.
