=Background notes
Sir William Ryder made a bequest of £50 to the parish of Wembury (alias Wembery, Wemburie), Devon, in his will. Although he does not state he was born there, this would seem plausible, and the Rider/Ryder name was long established in the parish, with local archival references to Rider/Ryder from the C14th, and a good number in the C16th in both Wembury and Plymouth. However, the Visitation of Devon of 1620 shows only a Rider family of Beare Feris, Devon, a parish to the north of Plymouth, whereas Wembury lies ca. fifteen miles away to the south-east of the port town. Nevertheless, the Protestation return for Wembury, in the Hundred of Plimpton, 1641/42 contains the names of Edward Rider (x2), Josias Rider, Martin Rider, and William Rider, with a Nathaniel Rider, constable, acting as one of the signators of the return.[1]
