context_page_description: Paul Bayning, 1st Viscount Bayning of Sudbury in Suffolk, previously known as Sir Paul Bayning and as Baron Bayning, was an English landed gentleman, created a peer in 1628.
context_section_description: After Bayning's death, his eldest daughter, Anne Bayning, married Henry Murray, a Groom of the Bedchamber to King Charles I, and later Sir John Baber; his daughter Cecilia married Henry Pierrepont, 1st Marquess of Dorchester; his daughter Elizabeth married Francis Lennard, 14th Baron Dacre; and his daughter Mary married William Villiers, 2nd Viscount Grandison, and was the mother of Barbara Villiers, Duchess of Cleveland, a mistress of King Charles II.
  On the death of the second Viscount Bayning in 1638, the Bayning titles became extinct, while the estates were inherited by Anne Baber. In 1674 she was created Viscountess Bayning for life, and on her death in 1678 that title also became extinct. Her younger sister Elizabeth Dacre was created Countess of Sheppey for life in 1680. In 1797 the great-great-grandson of Viscountess Bayning, Charles Townshend, was created Baron Bayning.
