| | Sir John GUILDFORD |
 | | Guildford joined his two illustrious uncles, Sir Edward and Sir Henry Guildford, the knights of the shire for Kent, in the House in 1529. |
 | | Guildford did not sit in Henry VIII's last Parliament or in either of Edward VI's, but as the young King's reign drew to its close he did not escape involvement in high politics. |
 | | His eldest son Thomas, who was already married, was to have the mansion house and manor of Hemsted, with all household stuff and the armour and weapons; the last were to remain there for ever in the family custody that they might serve the Queen and her successors. |
