• Died: ABT 1555 / BEF 8 May 1558
• Notes: was at court before May of 1511, when she received a half-year's wages (100s). She was listed as a chamberer on 9 Oct 1514, when King Henry VIII's sister, Mary Tudor, married King Louis XII of France. She was one of the few English attendants allowed to remain in France after the wedding. Sir Edward Grey, eldest son of Thomas Grey, first Marquis of Dorset, was also allowed to remain and they were married soon after, probably in France. As Lady Anne Grey, she remained in Mary Tudor's service, accompanying her back to England after Mary wed the Duke of Suffolk. Anne Jerningham carried the infant Henry Brandon at his christening. Widowed by the spring of 1517, Anne was in Norfolk, in the household of the Duke and Duchess of Suffolk, when Queen Catalina of Aragon paid a visit. Anne's stepmother, Mary Scrope, was one of the Queen's ladies. It is not clear when she married Henry Barley, but even if she had wed by 1520, she'd still have been listed as Lady Anne Grey at the Field of Cloth of Gold. At some point before 1531, Barley died and she married Sir Robert Drury of Hawstead. Her last husband, to whom she was wed by 1543, was Sir Edmund Walsingham of Scadbury, who was Lord Lieutenant of the Tower from 1521-1543. Anne was buried on 6 Apr 1559 beside her first husband in the church of St. Clement Danes, London.

• .... If the Barleys’ part in this litigation reflected their general anti-clericalism, Henry Barley’s return to the Parliament of 1529 is likely to have pleased the King and may even have owed something to him, as other elections in the home counties seem to have done: Barley’s marriage to Anne Jerningham, whose first husband had been a younger brother of Thomas Grey, 2nd Marquess of Dorset, may also have aided his return. Any expectations of his usefulness in the Commons were cut short by his death on 12 Nov. 1529, only eight days after the beginning of the first session. He had made his will on 20 Oct. 1529, so that he may not have taken his seat at all. He asked for 220 masses to be sung at specified times for the souls of dead relatives, including his ‘late wives’ Elizabeth and Anne. After various charitable gifts, and bequests to servants, friends and distant relatives, Barley left a doublet to each of his three sisters, with a further gift of 40s. to one of them, Dorothy, abbess of Barking, Essex. He left 300 marks to each of two daughters and to the third, Elizabeth, £50 and the proceeds of the sale of the marriage of Barley’s ward, Edward Leventhorp, if she did not herself marry him—as she later did. To his elder son, William, then aged 19, Barley left all the family land when he should reach 22, and a sum of 30 marks ‘towards finding in the inns of court’ in the intervening three years. The residue of Barley’s goods was to be divided between his children by his executors. As the overseers Barley appointed his wife and John Peryent, whose daughter Barley’s elder son had recently married. Anne Barley later married Sir Robert Drury I and Sir Edmund Walsingham.7 .... etc.

By the latter he had 14 children.
