BARONY OF WILLOUGHBY (IV)
ROBERT (DE WILLOUGHBY), LORD WILLOUGHBY, son and heir, was born circa 1349, and had seisin of his lands, 9 May 1372. He took part in Lancaster's historic but futile march from Calais to Bordeaux, August-December 1373, returning with Lancaster to England in 1374; was summoned to Parliament from 20 January 1375/6 to 20 November 1394, by writs directed Roberto de Wilughby; did homage to Richard II at his Coronation, 16 July 1377, and was among those appointed in Parliament to confer with the Commons, November 1381; was found to be a coheir of William (de Ufford), 2nd Earl of Suffolk, in 1382; accompanied the King on his only expedition into Scotland, 1385; and served again under Lancaster in Spain, 1386-87.
He married, 1stly, in or before 1370, Alice (c). He married, 2ndly, before 29 March 1372, Margrery, daughter of William (LA ZOUCHE), 2nd LORD ZOUCHE (of Haryngworth), by Elizabeth, daughter of William (DE ROS), 2nd LORD ROS (of Helmsley). She died 18 October 1391 and was buried at Spilsby. M.I. He married, 3rdly, Elizabeth, de jure suo jure (according to modern doctrine) BARONESS LATIMER, widow of John (DE NEVILLE), 3rd LORD NEVILLE (of Raby), daughter and heir of William (LE LATIMER), 4th LORD LATIMER, by his wife Elizabeth. She died 5 November 1395 and was probably buried at Spilsby (h). Will dated 18 October at Eresby, directing burial at Spilsby, proved 10 November 1395 at Lincoln. He died 9 August 1396 and was buried at Spilsby. [Complete Peerage XII/2:660-1, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
(c) She is said to have been daughter of Sir William de Skipwith, Chief Baron of the Exchequer, by Alice, daughter and heir of Sir William Hiltoft, of Ingoldmells, Lincs. . . The alleged descent of Skipwith from Stuteville is discussed by C. T. Clay in 'Early Yorks Charters', vol ix, p. 138.
(h) The statement that she was buried at Guisborough, co. York, is based on an obit, giving her date of death, taken from a Guisborough Priory calendar. There is, however, no mention of her burial there in a list of Guisborough, sepulcures, and it is far more likely that she was buried, in accordance with her will, at Spilsby, where her effigy appears on her 2nd husband's tomb.
