    - In 1444, Edmund Duke of Somerset in the name of Edmund March, Dorset, Rowland Tempest, and William Herd about a charter at Carneby 22, April 23 Henry VI (1444) gives Rober Hilton, Knight in the name of Robert Hilton, Knight, Baron of Hilton and Elizabeth his wife, former wife Thomas Holden, holding the manor of Carneby, having the inheritance and assignations of Robert William Hilton is the son and heir, aged 30..(Thisnote raises the question of birthdate for William as it seems to say that in1444 he was 30 years old, which would therefore give him a birthdate of 1414 rather than 1405)
      
      Citation: "The History of Antiquities of Durham," by Robert Surtees, 1840, This doesn't quite make sense if charter given to Robert and his wife Elizabeth was in 1444 as he is uspposed ot have married wife number 3, Isabel, before 1405
