These estates eventually passed to Edward Gale Baldero who sold them to the Reverend Stephen Norris in 1726. Henry Baldero died in Holland around 1660 and was buried there. In Barton Turf Church there is a basalt tombstone that bears his coat of arms, but no inscription and it seems likely that he had intended to be buried there.
