Thomas Plantagenet, eldest son of King Edward I by his 2nd wife, Margaret, dau. of Phillip III, or "the Hardy," of France, was born at Brotherton, in Yorkshire, anno 1301, whence the surname "de Brotherton," and before he had attained his thirteenth year, was advanced by special charter of his half-brother King Edward II (at the dying request of his predecessor), dated 16 December, 1312, to all the honours which Roger le Bigod, sometime Earl of Norfolk, and Marshal of England, did enjoy by the name of earl, in the co. Norfolk, with all the castles, manors, and lands, which the said Roger possessed in England, Ireland, and Wales, which had become vested in the crown by the surrender of the said Roger. But in some years afterwards, the king seized upon the marshalship in the Court of King's Bench because the Earl of Norfolk had failed to substitute some person on his behalf to attend the justices of that court upon their journey into Lancashire; he had, however, restitution of the high office upon paying a fine of £100. This prince was repeatedly in the wars of Scotland, temp. Edward II and Edward III, in the latter of which reigns he had a confirmation of the Earldom of Norfolk and the office of earl marshall. He m. 1st, Alice, dau. of Sir Roger Halys, Knt., of Harwich, by whom he had issue, Margaret and Alice. The prince m. 2ndly, Mary, dau. of William, Lord Roos, and widow of William Braose, and had a son, John, who became a monk at the abbey of Ely. Thomas of Brotherton d. in 1338, when the Earldom of Norfolk became extinct, but his elder dau. and co-heir, who eventually became sole heiress, the Lady Margaret Plantagenet, was created Duchess of Norfolk for life by King Richard II, 20 September, 1397.
