He is otherwise recorded as Marmaduke Daintry.
He was christened the son of Duke and Alice at St Alphage, London Wall in 1715.
He married Elizabeth (Eliza) Wilmer at St Andrew, Holborn in 1738.
In 1742 William, the father of William Penstone III (Grimwade p.619, 762), signed indentures to be his apprentice.
Elizabeth, the daughter of Marmaduke and Elizabeth, was christened at St Luke, Finsbury in 1743.
Their son Marmaduke was christened at St Giles, Cripplegate in 1744, died of a “watery head” and was buried at St Giles in 1744.
Another son Marmaduke was christened at St Luke, Finsbury in 1746, died of convulsions and was buried at St Giles in 1746.
In the same year Marmaduke senior paid Duty as a goldsmith for the apprentice indentures of William Barlow.
In 1748 Nicholas Hearndon (Hearnden) (Grimwade p.542, 752) signed indentures to be his apprentice.
Marmaduke was listed in the London Electoral Register as a goldsmith in Old Street in 1750.
Another son Marmaduke was christened at St Luke, Finsbury in 1753. He applied for freedom by patrimony in 1777.

Other apprentice of Marmaduke Daintrey was
Thomas Eaton ,son of John Eaton of Maidford in the County of Northampton, Husbandman
(Goldsmiths Company Apprenticeship Book 7, page 129 , 6 October 1749 )

He is recorded in the Poor Rate book of St Lukes's Old Street Liberty in 1740 as being in Noble Street . .
I have no idea of the significance, but his entry is bracketed with that of the next ratepayer , Susannah McConnell by the words "Mrs Dawson". Whether Mrs Dawson was the landlord of both I have no idea ! Mrs Dawson is recorded in a similar way as paying money for several other houses in Noble Street

Again I don't know if this is already fairly apparent, but Samuel Hutton citizen and goldsmith paid aprentice indenture duties for Mamaduke Daintrey son of Duke Daintrey of Cripplegate on 27 October 1730.

The Will of Marmaduke Daintrey, Goldsmith of Hartley Wintney , Hampshire was proved at PCC on 10 May 1777. (ref PROB 11/1031/95) . Where this is our silversmith, having retired to the country, or another, provincial Goldsmith is unknown .

Marmaduke moved to Hartley Wintney in 1754 after his brother in law, Richard Wilmer died. His wife Elizabeth and Marmaduke helped care for the children and also their own only surviving son, Marmaduke John. I have found where a spoon made by Marmaduke in 1760 was sold a few years ago. Marmaduke took another wife, Sarah but was buried with his first wife Elizabeth at Hartley Wintney.
