Thomas was one of the Original Knights of the Garter. When four years old the king, Edward II, soliciting a dispensation from the Pope to enable him to marry his cousin Catherine, daughter of Roger Mortimer of Wigmore, under whose guardianship the young Earl had been placed. An alliance eventually formed when his lordship had completed his 15th year. In two years afterwards the Earl, by special license from the Crown, was allowed to do homage and to assume his hereditary office of Sheriff of Worcestershire and Chamberlain of the Exchequer. This nobleman sustained in the brilliant reign of Edward III the high military renown of his illustrious progenitor, and became distinguished in arms almost from boyhood. He was at Cressy in France, with Edward, the Black Prince, and after their heroic achievements in France he arrayed himself under the banner of the cross and reaped fresh laurels on the fields of Palestine.
This nobleman almost rebuilt Warwick Castle, which had been demolished in the time of the de Maudits, adding strong gateways with fortified gates and embattled towers, and rebuilt the walls. He likewise founded the choir of the collegiate church of St. Mary, built a booth hall market place and made the Town of Warwick toll free. His lordship had 7 sons and 9 daughters. He died November 13, 1369, of the plague at Calais, where he was employed in a military capacity, and had just achieved a victory over the French.
