Captain Christopher Baker, who commanded the ship Foresight in the 1588 Spanish Armada for the Royal British Fleet. The Coat of Arms and Crest represented on the portrait were granted to Baker, and his name inscribed on the picture was revealed during conservation work to remove later overpainting.

Captain Baker is shown wearing ornamental armor and stands in a pose favored for military figures. A translation of the long inscription reads: "AD 1588, in the thirtieth year of Queen Elizabeth's reign, when Lord Charles Howard, High Admiral of England, had taken the command of the Royal English Fleet, to oppose the Spanish Armada fitted out for the destruction of the English, but which was itself defeated and suffered the ruin it had threatened, I was appointed by the same High Admiral Captain of the Royal Ship called Foresight, and one of the four who under the title of Vice Admiral were to manage the fleet."

Nicholas & Margaret Tufton were the great great grandparents of John Tufton 2nd Earl of Thannet, he married Lady Margaret Sackville who's ancestors were the earls of Dorset & the Tudor & Plantagenet line of the throne of England this line is through John Tufton Aug 1519 – 16 Oct 1567 whom I have marked in blue, see end of family tree for an extensive genealogy which shows our connection to the Sackville's & the Noble & Royal genealogy of Margate Sackville wife of our common ancestor John Tufton 2nd Earl of Thanet.

Also Nicholas & Margaret's Great Grandson Nicholas Tufton 1557 – 30th June 1632 married Francis Cecil who was the Daughter of Sir Thomas Cecil Earl of Exeter & the Granddaughter of William Cecil Lord Burghley Treasurer of England to Queen Elizabeth Tudor 1st.

Margaret the daughter & heir of John Hever of Cranbrook Kent, John Hever was a descendant of the Hever's of Kent & the founders of Hever castle which later became the home of Sir Thomas Bullen the father of Ann Boleyn wife of Henry the 8th. The Hever's line of descent before John Hever is unknown but an early ancestor from who John Hever would have descended is Walter de HEVER, first owner of Hever Castle, whose 1211 contemporary Hughe de HEVER bore arms "Gerv., A playn Crosse Arg., a Labell of 5 Azur." William de HEVER, Sheriff in the reign of Edward I, became owner of Hever Castle in 1270, the year the Gatehouse was constructed. Ownership then passed to Thomas de HEVER in 1300, William de HEVER in 1340, and in 1360 to Joan de HEVER, who married Sir Reginald de COBHAM. Passing through eight more proprietors, in 1505 Hever Castle became the home of Sir Thomas BULLEN, and of daughter Anne BOLEYN - the second wife of Henry VIII. Upon the death of Sir Thomas BULLEN, Hever Castle reverted to the Crown, and Henry granted ownership to his fourth wife, Anne of Cleves, as part of the divorce settlement in 1540.
