150 From "British History Online" for Stonehouse: Manors and other estates

In the 16th century and early 17th an estate at Stonehouse and Ebley was acquired by the Selwyn family of Matson. In 1588 Jasper Selwyn bought a fulling-mill at Bridgend and lands from Humphrey Osborne, and in 1602 his estate in Stonehouse was described as 4 houses and over 100 a. of land. By his marriage to Margaret Robins in 1592 Jasper Selwyn acquired lands in Stonehouse and Ebley which had belonged in 1533 to Thomas Lane (d. 1544); Thomas's son, also Thomas, sold the lands in 1557 to John Robins of Matson, whose successor, Thomas Robins (d. c. 1578), left them to his daughter Margaret. In 1621 Jasper Selwyn's son William married Edith, daughter of an Ebley clothier, Leonard Bennett; her inheritance included Ebley Mill and the house called EBLEY COURT. Jasper Selwyn died in 1635 and William in 1643. The estate then passed to William's son, also William, who died in 1679. William the son of the younger William (d. 1702) then held the estate, and his widow Albinia (d. 1738) held it in 1711. In the late 17th century the property at Ebley included the cloth-mill with 70 a. of land, and another farm of 60 a., and, at Stonehouse, the Bridgend cloth-mill and c. 100 a. of land. Albinia Selwyn's son John died in 1751, and his son, George Augustus Selwyn, owned Ebley Mill in 1788 and died in 1791 when the estate passed to his nephew Thomas Townshend, Viscount Sydney.  
Selwyn, Jasper (I0536)
