The only information I currently is that in 1874 Edwin Newman settled the Freelands estate on Thomas Beville Paynter and Henrietta's father, Walter Newman, as trustees for Henry and Henrietta. His motives in doing so remain a mystery. As I wrote to Marion Paynter: "why did Edwin Newman settle the Freelands estate on Walter Newman and Thomas Breville Paynter as trustees for Henry and family? Did he not trust Henry and Henrietta enough to give it to them? I find all of Edwin's actions relating to Freelands hard to understand, not least the circumstances under which he bought it for Henry and Henrietta in the first place".

According to Ian Caldwell, "Rev Beville Paynter, married his cousin, Harriet Emma Baker (Fanny), (the daughter of Harriet Emma Coleman who had married the Rev John Norgrave Baker), at Martock Parish Church, and they inherited How Caple."

Also according to Ian Caldwell Thomas Breville owned or occupied the How Caple estate that had previously been inherited by his great-grandmother Susanna Acton. He also owned the Sollershope estate (near How Caple) which he acquired through his marriage to Emma.

In the 1881 census, Francis Beville Paynter (aged 6) is shown to have been born in Brompton Ralph, Somerset, and to be living at the Rectory, Kemberton in Shropshire where (presumably) his father was the incumbant rector at the time.
