----------------------------------------
Humphrey de Bohun, Earl of Hereford, Earl of Essex, and Lord High Constable. This nobleman inheriting the high and daring spirit of his predecessors, often strenuously opposed the measures of the court and was often, therefore, in disgrace, but he appears at the close of his career to have regained royal favour, for we find him attending the king into Scotland with that monarch (Edward I) obtained a great victory near Roxburgh. His lordship m. Maud, dau. of Sir Ingelram de Fiennes, and dying in 1297, was s. by his son, Humphrey de Bohun.
