Sir Edward Goodere, 1st Baronet

[2] On his permanent return to England in 1669, his father bought the Burghope (also rendered Burhope) estate.

On 21 January 1679, at Bodenham, Herefordshire, Edward Goodere married Helen (or Eleanor) Dineley, the daughter and heiress of Sir Edward Dineley of Charlton, Worcestershire, and his wife Frances Watson, the daughter of Lewis Watson, 1st Baron Rockingham.

[3] He was returned as Member of Parliament for Evesham at the 1708 British general election.

[5] Goodere's wife died aged 49 in January 1714, and was buried in the Dineley family vault at Cropthorne, Worcestershire.

He was thus succeeded by his eldest surviving son, Sir John Dineley Goodere, 2nd Baronet, who was later strangled on board HMS Ruby, a crime for which his younger brother Samuel was executed.
