History
William Baldwyn, the son of a Bristol brewer also named William and his wife Joanna, was made free of the Merchant Taylors' Company on 26 November 1627. He had served an apprenticeship with Andrew Barker of Watling Street, and subsequently with Francis Buckley, a draper, and Richard Bunbury, a merchant tailor. The partnership with Tynte may not have lasted. Tynte leased a house and warehouse in Bishopsgate Street in 1631. Baldwin died in 1661. Tynte may have been the John Tynte who died in Chelvey, Somerset in 1671.
