Sir John Dineley Goodere, 2nd Baronet

Sir John Dineley 2nd Baronet (c. 1680 – 1741) of Burhope/Burghope House in the parish of Wellington[1] Herefordshire, was a British aristocrat and murder victim.

His mother, Helen née Dineley, was the granddaughter of Lewis Watson, 1st Baron Rockingham.

He embarked on a career at sea in the merchant navy, and was a volunteer on HMS Diamond in 1708.

In that year, or shortly after, he inherited the Charlton, Worcestershire, estate of his maternal ancestors, and took their name of Dineley, instead of that of Goodere.

On behalf of an alleged surviving son, his divorced wife set up a fraudulent claim (as his widow), which failed.
