  Excerpted from Les Seigneurs de Bohon by Jean LeMelletier, Cou tances:
  Arnaud-Bellee, 1978:  Henry de Bohon (1176-1220), earl of Hereford,
  played an important role in the revolt of the barons against King John.
  Born in 1176, he succeeded his grandfather honorably. The reign of King
  John (1199 -1216) started out well for Henry when he was created earl of
  Hereford on 28 April 1199. Henry was the first of the Bohons to have the
  title, which includ ed an
  annual income. The following year Henry and other nobles summoned his
  uncle in Scotland, William the Lion, to appear at Lincoln to do homage.
  In 12 03 Henry witnessed a document where King John confirmed the dowry of
  Queen Is abelle. The principal interests of the Bohons were in England.
  Henry paid tax es of 50 marks and a groom, corresponding to 20 parts of a
  knight's fee, on t he Huntington land he inherited from his mother. In
  Normandy, Henry kept his more modest holdings (from Humphrey I) at
  Carentan and Pont D'Ouve. After the first time France reclaimed Normandy
  (1204), Henry stayed loyal to John. His lands in Normandy were
  confiscated by Philip- Auguste. Then King John impose d a heavy tax to
  maintain the campaign of 1213-1214 to prevent the crushing o f a coalition
  formed at Bouvines on 27 July 1214 by England, Flanders, and th e German
  Empire. The king was discredited and there was
  general discontent. The forces were dissatisfied that the king awarded
  certain barons without the ir having to go through the regular tests and
  examinations.
  Then there was a revolt of barons in which Henry took an active part. The
  revolt ended with t he signing of the Magna Carta at Runnymede (Surrey) on
  12 July 1215. The land s that had been confiscated from Henry were
  returned and the 25 lords took it upon themselves to make sure the
  charter was enforced. The Bohons enjoyed be ing in possession of great
  lands at the frontier of the Welsh country which w as always threatened.
