Eubulo (Ebles) le Strange , a clerk 
Eubulo (Ebles) le was born about 1335 in Knockyn, Salopshire, England. Eubulo (Ebles) le's father was Roger I 4th Baron le Strange , of Knockyn, Sir and his mother was Maud. His paternal grandparents were John VI 2nd Baron le Strange , of Knockyn, Sir and Iseult (Isolda) de Walton. He had a brother named Roger II 5th Baron le. He was the younger of the two children. He died in 1411.General Notes
The Magna Charta Sureties states that Isabel, wife of John Aylesbury, was "said to be daughter of Eubulo (1373-1411), a clerk, son of Roger, 5th Lord Strange of Knockyn." If the 1373 is a birth date (birth dates are not normally given in this format--reigning years of royalty usually are given like this--maybe MCS is indicating Eubulo's reigning years of clerking), then it leads to an impossible situation because Isabel's son Sir Thomas Aylesbury was born "c. 1369". In other words Thomas was born 4 years before his grandfather.
The other thing that is strange about the ancestry of Eubulo le Strange is that, if he was the son of Roger the 5th Lord, then being just a clerk he would be a younger son. Roger the 5th Lord's eldest son John was born about 1352. If Eubulo was born after 1352, then he could not have a grandson born about 1369.
I have found that the numbering of lordships varies all over the place, depending on which lineage/book you are following. Some number "Lord le Strange"s. Others number "Lord le Strange of Knockyn"s. Yet others go by certain creation dates and start renumbering every once in a while because some monarch re-knighted someone. Therefore I have made Eubulo's father Roger, the 4th Lord of Knockyn by my numbering system--and with a birth date of 1335, he is a younger son.
When some better dates/proofs come along, I will be happy to change my lineage to agree.
-------------------------------------------
A little more proof has come along tending to confirm Eubulo as son of Roger. He had an uncle Ebles, a Baron and quasi Earl of Lincoln, who left Roger a lot of lands after he died in 1335. Therefore I think this Eubulo/Ebles is named after him.
