Sir Charles Chute, Kt. and (given name unknown) Cheney:

That Charles married a Cheney is on the Hampshire Rolls. We have conflicting information on which Cheney daughter he married. Family history identifies the father-in-law as Sir John Cheney, Kt. Additional notation: "Cheney was an important Sussex family. May have brought land to the Chutes as they moved here in the next generation. Also helped the rise of Philip, as Cheney was Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports."
This last note causes problems, as Cherry Ayres, a Cheyne family researcher, points out: "Thomas Cheyne (Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports) was born c1485. He marr. FRIDESWICK FROWYCK first, and second to ANNE BROUGHTON and died 1558. He had a son HENRY ..." (no mention of a daughter, but that doesn't mean much.)
Either this means that the job title of Charles' father-in-law is incorrect, we have the man's name wrong, and he was a Thomas, not a John - more than one Cheyne was Lord Warden? - although the name of "Sir John" has remained pretty consistent over time - but in any event, it seems there are some questionable conflicts within the Cheyne-Chewte marriage record at the moment. He did marry A Cheney - we just need to figure out which one.

Cheney married Sir Charles Chute Knight [55821] [MRIN: 551614688], son of Robert Chute [49057] and Alice Barkley [49058], in 1480.
