Sir Thomas Baring, Bart.
April 3. At Stratton Park, near Winchester, aged 75, Sir Thomas Baring, the second Bart. of Larkbear, co. Devon (1793), a Deputy Lieut. of Hampshire.

Sir Thomas Baring was born on the 12th of June, 1772, the eldest son of Sir Francis Baring, a Devonshire gentleman, who founded the London branch of the family, by Henrietta, daughter of William Herring, esq. of Croydon, and co-heir of Thomas Herring, Archbishop of Canterbury.

He was the eldest of five brothers; of whom the two next, Lord Ashburton and henry Baring, esq. are both commemorated in our present Obituary; William died in 1820, and George, the youngest, is still living.

Sir Thomas Baring succeeded to the baronetcy on the death of his father Sept. 12, 1810. He was best known for his fine taste in art, and his magnificent collection of pictures: which have, since his death, been brought to sale at the rooms of Messrs. Christie and Manson.

He never entered much into political affairs. He sat in Parliament for Wycombe in the parliaments of 1830 and 1831; but RESIgned his seat in the latter, before its dissolution in 1832, to Colonel the Hon. C. Grey.

Sir Thomas Baring married, at Calcutta, in 1794, Mary Ursula, eldest daughter of Charles Sealy, esq. of Calcutta, barrister at law; and by that lady, who died on the 16th July, 1846, he had issue four sons and three daughters. The former are
1. the Right Hon. Francis Thornhill Baring, late Chancellor of the Exchequer, and M.P. for Portsmouth, who has succeeded to the dignity of a Baronet; he married, first, in 1825, Jane, fourth daughter of the late Hon. Sir George Grey, Bart. and secondly, in 1841, Lady Arabella Geogina Howard, second daughter of Kenneth-Alexander first Earl of Effingham;
2. Thomas Baring, esq. M.P. for Huntingdon, and now head of the London house, who is unmarried;
3. John Baring, esq. of Oakwood, Sussex, who married, in 1842, Charlotte-Amelia, eldest daughter of the Rev. George Porcher, of Maiden Erleigh, Bucks, who died in 1846; and
4. the Rev. Charles Baring, who married, first, in 1830 . . . [mistakenly prints the name of Mary Ursula Sealy]; and secondly, in 1846, his cousin Caroline, daughter of the late Thomas Read Kemp, esq. of Dale Park, Sussex (by Frances, daughter of Sir Frances Baring, Bart.).

The daughters are:
Charlotte, married in 1833 to H.G. Wells, esq.;
Emily, married in 1837 to the Rev. William Maxwell Du Pre, Vicar of Wooburn, Bucks; and
Frances, married in 1840 to her cousin the Right Hon. Henry Labouchere, M.P. (son of Peter Caesar Labouchere, esq. by Dorothy-Elizabeth, fourth daughter of Sir Francis Baring, Bart.) now President of the Board of Trade, who has just purchased Stoke Park, in Buckinghamshire, from mr. Granville Penn, for 62,000 pounds and is about to erect a gallery for the many choice pictures which he already possesses.

--- "Thomas George, Earl of Northbrook, G.C.S.I.: A Memoir" by Sir Bernard Mallet, 1908, page 265:
HIS PICTURES.
Of these indoor interests the first undoubtedly was the arrangement and cataloguing of his great collection of pictures, most of them inherited [as noted above p. 141] from his uncle, Mr. Thomas Baring. The following extract from a description given of these pictures in the Times on Lord Northbrook's death brings out the point that the taste for pictures was a family trait of the Barings. The writer remakred that the Northbrook collection offered a "very interesting example of the way in which the great English collections were formed in teh golden age of picture buying which followed the French Revolution and the Great War, and which may be said to have lasted up to 1850. It may be said that the Barings have always been buyers of choice pictures. The Ashburton collection with its splendid Rembrandts and its fine cabinet works of the Dutch school is one instance of the connoisseurship of the family." But with Lord Northbrook the love of pictures was a more personal matter than this extract would indicate. Though he can hardly be said to have possessed what is known as the "artistic temperament," he was a lover of all beautiful things, and as we have seen himself an exellent draughtsman. The possession of these pictures was a constant and daily delight to him, their lighting and hanging a perpetual interest, and he enjoyed few things more than showing them to an appreciative visitor. He devoted much time to the compilation, in consultation with various high authorities, of catalogues which are models of what such volumes can be. The London pictures are illustrated by photographs, and the Stratton collection by small sketches of the principal pictures, more than one from his own hand and others by his daughter and his son-in-law, Colonel Crichton. In the introduction written by himself Lord Northbrook states that the collection was, "with very few exeptions, made by Mr. Thomas Baring. As the second son of Sir Thomas Baring he had been brought up in familiarity with good pictures, for his grandfather, Sir Francis Baring, acquired a fine collection of Dutch masters at the end of the 18th Century. On the death of Sir Francis in 1810 his son Sir Thomas parted with the Dutch collection to the Prince Regent, and formed a gallery mainly composed of Italian pictures. Afterwards he added to it some works by English and Dutch master.

Thomas married Mary Ursula Sealy on 13 Sep 1794 in Calcutta, India. Mary was born about 1774; died on 26 Jul 1846 in Stratton Park, Micheldever, Hampshire; was buried in Micheldever, Hampshire, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Francis married Harriet Herring on 12 May 1767 in St. John Baptist, Croydon, Surrey. Harriet was born on 18 May 1750 in Lambeth Palace, Lambeth, London; died on 03 Dec 1804 in Bath, Somerset; was buried in Micheldever, Hampshire, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

John Baring of Palace Street, Exeter, and of Larkbear House, co. Devon (son of Dr. Franz Baring, Minister of St. Ansgar's Church at Bremen); born 31 January 1697/8; came to Exeter in 1717; naturalised by Act of Parliament 1723; bur. at St. Leonard's, Exeter, 3 November 1748.

The Baring's woollen factory
It was let to tenants by its owner, a Mr Lavington. The house, along with 37 acres, was sold in 1737 to John Baring, of the Baring Bank family. Johann Baring was a German Lutheran from a family of wealthy cloth manufacturers who came to Exeter in 1717. In 1723 he was naturalized and married Elizabeth Vowler, the daughter of a tea and coffee wholesaler.

Baring's fortune was initially made as a woollen serge manufacturer and merchant, and he built a manufactory on the land next to the house. The house had "large press-shops, packing rooms, linhays, tenter-grounds, and all conveniences on the demesne for finishing woollen cloths." After Baring's death in 1748, his son, also John, purchased and moved into Mount Radford House in 1770, while his other son, Charles, remained in Larkbeare. John Jnr., leased a fulling mill in Exwick that would supply the Larkbeare manufactory with cloth. A third son, Francis Baring moved to London as a merchant, where he purchased materials for his brother's Exeter business and found new markets for their output. It was Francis who founded Baring Brothers, the merchant bank.

The manufactory at Larkbeare House survived into the early nineteenth-century but Exeter's woollen trade was no longer pre-eminent and was in fast decline. The Barings vacated the house in 1819 to let it to tenants, and disposed of the house in 1832 to a Mrs Hodge. The house started to deteriorate and in 1889 it was partly demolished when Roberts Road was developed and Holloway Street widened. It would seem that a Mr G Digginnes rescued and gave a "number of carvings in stone from the old Larkbeare House, lately demolished; and these it is hoped may some day be built into some portion of the Museum". (FP 1890) In 1770, John Baring Jnr., established the Devonshire Bank.

John married Elizabeth Vowler on 15 Feb 1728. Elizabeth (daughter of John Vowler and Elizabeth Townshend) was born on 30 Apr 1702 in Devon, England; was christened in in St. Petrock's, Exeter, Devon; died in Apr 1766; was buried on 16 Apr 1766 in St. Leonard's, Exeter, Devon.
