Sir_Thomas_Chamberlayne,_2nd_Baronet
Sir Thomas Chamberlayne,[lower-alpha 1] 2nd Baronet (c. 1635–1682) of Wickham and of Northbrooke, Oxfordshire,[1]was the son of Sir Thomas Chamberlayne, 1st Baronet, and probably inherited the baronetcy on the death of his father on 6 October 1643. The title (one conferred after 4 January 1642) being void under the Act of Parliament (4 February 1652) then in force,[lower-alpha 2] on 6 October 1657 he accepted another baronetcy from the Lord Protector Oliver Cromwell, to whose Attorney General, Edmund Prideaux he was son-in-law. This creation became invalid after the Restoration, while his previous one was reinstated. He died late September or early November 1682. The baronetcy passed to James Chamberlayne, 3rd Baronet.[1][2]
