Theobald family
The Theobald family of Seale, Kent, was related by marriage to the Oxenden family. Henry Oxenden ((1549-c.1620), the builder of the mansion house of Deane, Kent, took as his second wife Mary Theobald. Mary was the daughter of John Theobald, a gentleman of Seale, Kent. Although Henry and Mary Oxenden had no children, it appears that there was a relatively close relationship. This was consolidated by another daughter of John Theobald, Catherine Theobald, marrying Laurence Piers, whose son, (Sir) Thomas Piers subsequently married Jane Oxenden, a granddaughter of Henry Oxenden. John Theobald sold his house of Stonepitt, Seale, to Thomas Piers
