[scary.ged]
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 his father. He married Jaone, daughter of Peter de Genville, Lord of Trim, in Ireland. In 34th of Edward I, about 1306, he received the honour of Knighthood. 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 Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. During the latter part of Edward II's reign he attached himself to the Queen, and at length fled with her and Prince Edward to France. He later returned and was made Earl of March soon after the accession of Edward III. He hereupon became proud beyond measure (so that his son Geoffrey called him the King of Folly) and assumed royal authority. His career was not however of long continuance, for King Edward III, becoming sensible of his folly and vices, had him seized in the Castle of Queen Isabel in Nottingham and was convicted under various charges, the first was complicity in the murder of Edward II, and receiving sentence of death was hanged in 1330. He left by Joan de Geneville 4 sons and 7 daughters.
