Roger Mortimer, 2nd Baron Mortimer, was summoned to Parliament 1306-1326.This nobleman, notorious in our histories as the paramour of Isabel,Queen Consort of Edward II, was in his sixteenth year at the death of hisfather. He married Jaone, daughter of Peter de Genville, Lord of Trim, inIreland. In 34th of Edward I, about 1306, he received the honour ofKnighthood. He aided in the Scottish wars, and in 3rd of Edward II, 1310,he was made Governor of the Castle of Buelt, and later was LordLieutenant of Ireland. During the latter part of Edward II's reign heattached himself to the Queen, and at length fled with her and PrinceEdward to France. He later returned and was made Earl of March soon afterthe accession of Edward III. He hereupon became proud beyond measure (sothat his son Geoffrey called him the King of Folly) and assumed royalauthority. His career was not however of long continuance, for KingEdward III, becoming sensible of his folly and vices, had him seized inthe Castle of Queen Isabel in Nottingham and was convicted under variouscharges, the first was complicity in the murder of Edward II, andreceiving sentence of death was hanged in 1330.
