Misc. Notes
In 1644 Needham purchased from Francis Negus and Susan, his wife, for 200 pounds, the "whole manor of 'Drewells,' alias Newton Bromswold, Northants., with two messuages, one cottage, one dovecote, two gardens, two orchards, a hundred and twenty acres of land, eight acres of meadow, and sixteen acres of pasture in Newton Bromswold aforesaid." The old manor house there became the Langhorne family seat. In 1697 Needham's granddaughters in Virginia, Mary Townshend Washington and Frances Townshend Dade, had apparently inherited a portion of the estate, which they sold to Geoffrey Jeffreys for 160 pounds. "Of the ancient manorhouse. . .not a single stone remains." According to his will, Needham had property at "Betteles Green" and Rushden, Northamptonshire, at the time of his death. In 1661 he had surrendered the Newton Bromswold manor to his son, William, and his heirs. William must have died without issue for it to come to Needham's granddaughters.
