Knight of Bath, of Stanwell, member of the Middle Temple, Keeper of the Great Wardrobe, Steward of Windsor, Privy Councillor, Sheriff of Buckinghamshire and Bedford, Knight of the Shire for Buckinghamshire.

Second but first surviving son of Thomas Windsor, Esq., and Elizabeth Andrews. Grandson of Miles Windsor and Joan Greene, John Andrews and Elizabeth Stratton.

Husband of Elizabeth Blount, daughter of Sir William Blount and Margaret Echingham, descendant of King Henry III. They were married about 1490 and had four sons and four daughters:
George, William, Edmund, Thomas, Elizabeth (wife of Sir Peter Vavsour), Anne (Wife of Roger Corbet), Edith and Eleanor.

Andrew purchased the manor of Marsh Baldon in 1504 from John Baynton, appointed to the retinue of Sir William Sandys for the expedition to Guienne in 1512. He was created Lord Stanwell and admitted to the House of Lords on 01 Dec 1529, summoned to Parliament 1529 to 1542.

Andrew and Elizabeth were both buried in the choir of the Holy Trinity, Hounslow, Middlesex.

Andrew and Elizabeth were originally buried at Holy Trinity. On 01 June 1943 two young boys were setting old churches afire, including Holy Trinity, which was devastated. Hence in 1960 the graves at Holy Trinity were exhumed and the remains were dispatched to Brookwood Cemetery in Surrey for reburial. Following the usual procedure a list of all the buried was produced at this time: 483 names with dates of death, grouped by grave, from 223 graves. All per "WEST MIDDLESEX FAMILY HISTORY SOCIETY JOURNAL. Vol 34 No. 3 September 2016."

I have left Elizabeth and husband Andrew Windsor here in that if they were to be removed, someone less informed, as I was when placing these memorials, will most likely re-add them. Perhaps down the road, someone with more time than I can dispatch all the Holy Trinity memorials to Brookwood and leave Holy Trinity with a note of description from the source, which is quite detailed with pictures - www.west-middlesex-fhs.org.uk/downloads/2016%20No%203%20September.pdf

From volunteer Windon Edge #50081813:
The Holy Trinity church in Hounslow was destroyed by fire in 1943. In October 1959, all graves at the church were exhumed and reinterred at Brookwood Cemetery (section 62) in Woking on 31 December 1960. There were a total of 461 remains unidentified and 186 individual remains that were identified. Surviving headstones and memorials from the church were also moved to Brookwood and can be found along the tree line in section 62. The names of those reburied at Brookwood have been recorded by the West Middlesex Family History Society.
