Another part of Colvilles manor in Long Stanton, Cambridgeshire, known under that name, was in the hands of the lords of Cheyneys manor by 1406 and still in 1428, but was later acquired by the Burgoyne family, John Burgoyne perhaps holding it in 1432. Thomas Burgoyne, an under-sheriff of London, left it by will, proved 1470, to his widow Alice for life, with remainder to their son Thomas. In 1473 Alice and Thomas claimed to hold it as heirs of the survivor of the feoffees of one of John Cheyney's trustees of 1406. Sir John Cheyney, lord of Cheyneys, was then preventing Alice and her late husband's feoffees from entering upon the manor. Alice Burgoyne died in 1473 and her son was resident at his death in 1507, as later was his son Thomas (d. 1521). Thomas's son Thomas died without issue and the father's interest in Long Stanton passed to his brother Christopher. Although Thomas, Lord Vaux, of Cheyneys manor was still disputing the title in the 1530s, Christopher Burgoyne was de facto lord in 1524 and probably remained resident in Long Stanton until his death in 1562. Christopher's son George settled the manor in 1572 on the marriage of his son Thomas, who held it in 1580. In 1596 half Thomas's estate was delivered to his creditors and in 1613 the surviving creditor conveyed his interest to Henry Holford of Long Stanton, who granted it in 1616 to his stepsons Sir Christopher and Robert Hatton. Holford's wife Joan evidently retained at least some of the lands to 1626, but after her death in that year the estate descended in the Hatton family qv. The Burgoynes appear not to have retained any land in Long Stanton and by 1628 Sir Christopher Hatton's son and namesake was in possession of the whole of Colvilles manor.

Perhaps by 1524, the Restwold estate, in Oakington, had come to Christopher Burgoyne of Long Stanton, who had a manor at Oakington in the 1560s. His eldest son George (d. 1588) was thought to possess it in the 1560s. Christopher's daughter Thomasine married the lawyer Robert Shute, of an Oakington family, settled there from the 1560s, who was a baron of the Exchequer from 1579 and a justice of Queen's Bench from 1586 to his death in 1590. His second son John apparently sold 100 a. there in 1598. Most of Shute's Oakington land was assigned by his eldest son Francis to his daughter Joan, wife of John Hatton (d. 1587). She brought an interest in it to her second husband, Henry Holford, in the 1610s. It passed eventually to her second son Robert Hatton (kt. 1617). He probably resided at Oakington from c. 1610 to the 1640s, when he was a Royalist M.P. After 1646 he fled overseas to escape his creditors, and probably died between 1649 and 1654. His Oakington estate, under sequestration for ten years, and apparently not compounded for, although his wife Elizabeth retained an interest in it, was sold in 1652 to Maj.-Gen. Lewis Audley. In 1662 William Audley still occupied the house attached to the estate, but by 1664 it had been recovered by Sir Anthony Aucher, a Kentish royalist (cr. Bt. 1666, d. 1692), husband of Sir Robert Hatton's daughter Elizabeth. All Aucher's male issue predeceased him.
