------------------------------------

    Joan (of Acre), Countess of Gloucester and Hertford, b. at Acre in Palestine probably in 1272, was 2nd daughter of Edward I, by Eleanor of Castile. She was first betrothed to Herman, son of the King of Germany, who died in 1282, before the marriage could take place. She m. 1stly, at the beginning of May 1290, in Westminster Abbey, by dispensation granted 16 Nov 1289, Gilbert de Clare, Earl of Gloucester and Hertford, abovenamed, who d. 7 Dec 1295. She m. 2ndly, clandestinely, to her father's great displeasure, presumably early in 1297, Ralph de Mothermer, a member of the late Earl's household. On 29 Jan 1296/7 the escheator was ordered to take into this hand all the lands, goods, and chattels of Joan, Countess of Gloucester, from which it might be inferred that the King, suspecting her intentions with regard to Monthermer, sought to coerce her to abandon the marriage by degradation and loss of estates. On 16 Mar, the King gave his assent to her marriage with Amadeus of Savoy, and therefore must have been ignorant of her marriage, if it had already taken place, and on 12 May it was ordered that Joan should have reasonable allowance for herself and children. It would seem that by 3 July the King had discovered Joan's marriage with Monthermer, for he took her lands into his own had, but by 31 July, when he certainly knew of her marriage, he appears to have been partly mollified, for her lands were restored (except Tonbridge); in ordering her to provide 100 men to serve in France, however, the special proviso was made that they might be commanded by anyone except Ralph de Monthermer, her husband. She was pardoned two days later, 2 Aug 1297. She d. 23, and was buried 26 Apr 1307, int he Austin Friar's church at Clare in Suffolk, aged 35. [Complete Peerage V:708-10]

------------------------------------

    Gilbert de Clare was not young when he married the fiery-spirited, sloe-eyed Joanna and took her to live at his country retreat in Clerkenwell not far from the Tower, where the king and queen were again in residence. She left for her new home with great fanfare, laden with royal gifts. After being a widow a year, she secretly married a completely unknown squire in her husbands retinue, Ralph de Monthermer. Through this marriage he became possessed in his own right of the earldoms of Gloucester & Hertford. The fact that a royal princess had dared to marry this obscure fellow became a cause celebré which for a time separated her from the affection of her father. It proved to be a marriage, however, leading ultimately to a firm friendship between the new son-in-law and Edward.

# Note: Page: 2680 1134 Maud FitzRobert 1100 - 1149 Gilbert de Clare 49 49 1146 - 1219 William Marshall (FitzGilbert) 73 73 William Marshal is the name of two important men in English history. They were father and son. The better known William (the father-- 1146 to 1219) was the 4th Earl of Pembroke and "greatest knight that ever lived" (Stephen Langton). Before him, the hereditary title of "Marshal" designated a sort of head of household security for the king of England; by the time he died, when people in Europe (not just Britain) said, "the Marshal," they meant William.

When William was about six years old, his father John Marshal had switched sides so often between King Stephen and Empress Maud that John had to give William to Stephen as a hostage for John's keeping his word that he would surrender Newbury Castle, which Maud had told John to hold for her. John broke his word, and when Stephen ordered John to surrender immediately or watch as he hanged William in front of the castle, John replied that he could always make another son, and a better one, too. Stephen could not bring himself to hang William, of course, or his story would end here.

As a younger son of a baron without much to leave him, William learned to make his own way: He was knighted in 1167 and was making a good living out of winning tournaments (which at that time were bloody, hand-to-hand combat, not the jousting contests that would come later); he fought in 500 such bouts in his life and never lost once. In 1170 he was appointed captain of the guard for Henry the Young King and stood by the young king during the Revolt of 1173-1174; he continued to serve the king of England for forty-nine years: through the rest of Henry II's reign, all of Richard I's, all of John's, and three years into that of Henry III. William once came face to face with Richard in battle and could have killed him but killed Richard's horse instead, to make that point clear. William it was whom Henry trusted to guard Queen Eleanor when he would let her out of prison to make some public appearance. William it was whom King John trusted on his deathbed to make sure John's nine-year-old son Henry would get the throne. It was William on June 15 1215 at Runnymede who dealt with the barons who made King John agree to the Magna Carta, and it was William who dealt with the kings of France (Louis VII and Philip Augustus). When they would not take the English king's word, they would take William's.

On November 11 1216, upon the death of King John, William Marshal was named by the king's council (the chief barons who had remained loyal to King John in the First Barons' War) to serve as both regent of the 9 year old King Henry III, and regent of the kingdom. William's first action after being named as regent was to reissue the Magna Carta, in which he is a signatory as one of the witnessing barons.

For his service to them, the Plantagenets gave him as his bride (in August 1189, when he was 43 and she 17) the second-richest heiress in England, Isabel de Clare, who had inherited large estates in England, Wales, and Ireland. She brought with her the title of Earl of Pembroke. They had five sons and five daughters, and every one of them survived into adulthood. Their eldest son William would marry (in April 1224) Eleanor, the nine-year-old sister of Henry III (and daughter of King John).

William Marshal's health failed him in February 1219. In March 1219 he realized that he was dying, so he summoned his eldest son, also William, and his household knights, then he left the Tower of London for his estate at Caversham in Oxfordshire, near Reading, where he called a meeting of the barons, Henry III, the papal legate, the royal justiciar (Hugh de Burgh), and Peter des Roches (Bishop of Winchester and the young King's guardian). William rejected the Bishop's claim to the regency and entrusted the regency to the care of the papal legate; he apparently did not trust the Bishop or any of the other magnates that he had gathered to this meeting. He wanted to be buried as a Knight Templar, so he was invested into that order before he died on May 14 1219 at Caversham, and was buried in the Temple Church in London, where his effigy may still be seen.

The end of the Marshal family
During the civil wars in Ireland, William, Sr., had taken two manors that the Bishop of Ferns claimed but could not get back. Some years after William's death, that bishop is said to have laid a curse on the family that William's sons would have no children, and the great Marshal estates would be scattered. Each of William's sons did become earl of Pembroke and marshal of England, and each died without issue. William's vast holdings were then divided among the husbands of his five daughters. The title of "Marshal" went to the husband of the oldest daughter, Hugh Bigod, 3rd Earl of Norfolk, and later passed to the Mowbray dukes of Norfolk and then to the Howard dukes of Norfolk, becoming "Earl Marshal" along the way. The title of "Earl of Pembroke" passed to the husband of Joan Marshal's daughter, Joan de Munchensy, the first of the de Valence line of earls of Pembroke.

Four generations of the Marshal family, from Isabel de Clare's parents through William fitzWilliam's fictitious bastard son, are the subjects of a series of four historical romances by Mary Pershall. Dawn of the White Rose ( 1985) is the one about William Marshal and Isabel de Clare.

Son of Gilbert de Clare, 5th Earl of Hertford and Isabel Marshall, daughter of William Marshall and Isabel de Clare. A year after he became of age, he was in an expedition against the Welsh. Through his mother he inherited a fifth part of the Marshall estates, including Kilkenny and other lordships in Ireland. In 1232 Richard was secretly married to Margaret (Megotta) de Burgh, daughter of Hubert de Burgh, Earl of Kent. Both bride and groom were aged about ten. Megotta died in November 1327. Before she had even died, the earl of Lincoln offered 5,000 marks to King Henry to secure Richard for his own daughter. This offer was accepted, and Richard was married secondly, on or before 25 January 1237, Maud de Lacy, daughter of the Surety John de Lacy and Margaret Quincy.
He joined in the Barons' letter to the Pope in 1246 against the exactions of the Curia in England. He was among those in opposition to the King's half-brothers, who in 1247 visited England, where they were very unpopular, but afterwards he was reconciled to them.
On April 1248, he had letters of protection for going over seas on a pilgrimage. At Christmas 1248, he kept his Court with great splendor on the Welsh border. In the next year he went on a pilgrimage to St. Edmund at Pontigny, returning in June. In 1252 he observed Easter at Tewkesbury, and then went across the seas to restore the honor of his brother William, who had been badly worsted in a tournament and had lost all his arms and horses. The Earl is said to have succeeded in recovering all, and to have returned home with great credit, and in September he was present at the Round Table tournament at Walden.
In August 1252/3 the King crossed over to Gascony with his army, and to his great indignation the Earl refused to accompany him and went to Ireland instead. In August 1255 he and John Maunsel were sent to Edinburgh by the King to find out the truth regarding reports which had reached the King that his son-in-law, Alexander, King of Scotland, was being coerced by Robert de Roos and John Baliol. If possible, they were to bring the young King and Queen to him. The Earl and his companion, pretending to be the two of Roos's knights, obtained entry to Edinburgh Castle, and gradually introduced their attendants, so that they had a force sufficient for their defense. They gained access to the Scottish Queen, who made her complaints to them that she and her husband had been kept apart. They threatened Roos with dire punishments, so that he promised to go to the King.
Meanwhile the Scottish magnates, indignant at their castle of Edinburgh's being in English hands, proposed to besiege it, but they desisted when they found they would be besieging their King and Queen. The King of Scotland apparently traveled South with the Earl, for on 24 September they were with King Henry III at Newminster, Northumberland. In July 1258 he fell ill, being poisoned with his brother William, as it was supposed, by his steward, Walter de Scotenay. He recovered but his brother died.
Richard died at John de Griol's manor of Asbenfield in Waltham, near Canterbury, 15 July 1262, it being rumored that he had been poisoned at the table of Piers of Savoy. On the following Monday he was carried to Canterbury where a mass for the dead was sung, after which his body was taken to the canon's church at Tonbridge and interred in the choir. Thence it was taken to Tewkesbury and buried 28 July 1262, with great solemnity in the presence of two bishops and eight abbots in the presbytery at his father's right hand.
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
 1180 - 1230 Gilbert De Clare 50 50 5th Earl of Hertford
He was the son of Richard de Clare, 4th Earl of Hertford, from whom he inherited the Clare estates, from his mother, Amice Fitz Robert, the estates of Gloucester and the honour of St. Hilary, and from Rohese, an ancestor, the moiety of the Giffard estates. In June 1202, he was entrusted with the lands of Harfleur and Montrevillers.
In 1215 Gilbert and his father were two of the barons made Magna Carta sureties and championed Louis "le Dauphin" of France in the First Barons' War, fighting at Lincoln under the baronial banner. He was taken prisoner in 1217 by William Marshal, whose daughter Isabella he later married. In 1223 he accompanied his brother-in-law, Earl Marshal in an expedition into Wales. In 1225 he was present at the confirmation of the Great Charter by Henry III. In 1228 he led an army against the Welsh, capturing Morgan Gam, who was released the next year. He then joined in an expedition to Brittany, but died on his way back to Penrose in that duchy. His body was conveyed home by way of Plymouth and Cranbourgh to Tewkesbury. His widow Isabel later married Richard Plantagenet, Earl of Cornwall & King of the Romans.
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Gilbert de Clare, Surety for the Magna Charta, eldest son, was born before 1182. He was granted some Welsh Lordships in 1210-11 by King John, and fortified the Castle of Beulth in Wales. Shortly afterwards he took up arms with the Barons against the King, in the interest of the new laws, and was elected one of the celebrated Sureties for the observance of the Magna Charta, and was excommunicated personally. Gilbert de Clare married Isabel le Mareschal, daughter of William, first Earl of Pembroke, Protector of England, and his wife Isabel de Clare. He died Oct. 25, 1230, and was buried in the chair of Tewksbury Abbey.

 1096 - 1147 Isabel Elizabeth Beaumont 51 51 1295 - 1360 Elizabeth de Clare 65 65 She was the heiress to the lordships of Clare, Suffolk in England and Usk in Wales. She was one of three daughters of Gilbert de Clare, 7th Earl of Hertford and Joan of Acre, and sister of the infant fourth earl, also Gilbert de Clare. She accompanied her brother Gilbert to Ireland for their double wedding to two siblings -- the son and daughter of the Earl of Ulster. Elizabeth married John de Burgh on September 30, 1308.
He was the heir to the Earl of Ulster, and Elizabeth could expect to be a countess. She gave birth to their only child, a son, in 1312; he would become William Donn de Burgh, 3rd Earl of Ulster. Only a year later, her husband John was suddenly killed in a minor skirmish. Now a widow, Elizabeth remained in Ireland until another family tragedy demanded her return.
Her brother Gilbert was killed at the Battle of Bannockburn, and as he left no surviving issue and had no brothers, his property was equally divided between his sisters, Elizabeth, Eleanor and Margaret. Suddenly Elizabeth was one of the greatest heiresses in England. Her uncle, King Edward II of England, recalled her to the land of her birth so he could select a husband for her. She left Ireland in 1316, leaving behind her son William. Elizabeth never returned.
Edward II placed her in Bristol Castle, but his plans to marry her to one of his supporters were dashed in February 1316, when Elizabeth was abducted from Bristol by Theobald II de Verdun, the former Justiciar of Ireland. He and Elizabeth had been engaged before she was called back to England. She was Lady Verdun for only five months however, for Theobald died in September 1316 of typhoid. He left behind three daughters from a prior marriage and Elizabeth, who was pregnant. She fled to Amesbury Priory, where she stayed under the protection of her aunt Mary, who was a nun there. There she gave birth to her daughter, Isabella de Verdun, named for the queen, in February 1317. Just a few weeks later, Edward II married Elizabeth to Sir Roger D'Amory.
D'Amory had been a knight in her brother's service who rose to prominence as a favorite of Edward II. Now married to him, Elizabeth was caught up in the political upheavals of her uncle's reign. She gave birth to another daughter, Elizabeth D'Amorie, in May 1318. Roger was reckless and violent, and made a deadly enemy of his brother-in-law, Hugh the younger Despenser. He switched sides over to Thomas, Earl of Lancaster, and died in March 1322, having been captured by royalist forces. He left Elizabeth defenseless, and she was captured and imprisoned at Barking Abbey with her children.
Elizabeth supported her friend, Queen Isabella, when she invaded England and she benefited greatly from the reign of Isabella's son, King Edward III of England. She took a vow of chastity after Roger's death, effectively removing herself from the aristocratic marriage market. She enjoyed a long and fruitful widowhood, becoming patroness of many religious houses. Elizabeth is best remembered for having used much of her fortune to found Clare College, Cambridge.

Richard de Beauchamp, 5th Earl of Warwick, was born Jan. 28, 1381. This nobleman was made a Knight of the Bath at the coronation of the Queen, the following year. In 4th of Henry IV, 1399-1414, he was preeminently distinguished against Owen Glendower, whose banner he captured and put the rebel to flight, and about the same time he won fresh laurels in the memorable Battle of Shrewsbury against the Percys, after which he was made K. G. In the 9th of Henry IV he made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land and en route the King of France, in reverence of that Holy Feast, made him sit at his table, and at his departure sent an herald to conduct him safely through the realm. When he came to Jerusalem, he had much respect showed him, and having performed his offering at the sepulchre of our Savior he set up his arms on the north side of the temple. At the coronation of Henry V the earl was constituted High Steward of England. In the 3rd year of that king he was at Calais, and the next year he was at Caen, and upon the surrender of that place was appointed Governor of the Castle. His lordship continued actively engaged in military and diplomatic services during the reign of Henry V, by whose will he was appointed governor to his infant son and successor Henry VI, which charge having been fulfilled with great wisdom and fidelity, his lordship was appointed, upon the death of John Plantagenet, Duke of Bedford (King Henry V's brother), Regent of France, Lt. General of the whole realm of France and Duchy of Normandy. The Earl, who had been created Earl of Albermarle for life, in 1417, died in his Castle of Roan in his French Government on April 30, 1439. He married 1st Elizabeth, daughter and heiress of Thomas, Lord Berkeley, Viscount Lisle, by whom he had three daughters, Margaret, Eleanor and Elizabeth. He married 2nd Isabel, daughter of Thomas le Despenser, and had a son Henry, his successor, who died 1445, aged 22, and the male line of Beauchamp, Earls of Warwick expired, and a daughter Anne (this Henry left an only daughter, Anne Beauchamp, who died sine prole 1449 and the honours of the illustrious house of Beauchamp, reverted to her Aunt Anne (only daughter of this Richard Beauchamp, by his 2nd wife, Isabel Despenser), wife of Richard Nevill, Earl of Salisbury, the celebrated King Maker, who was subsequently made Earl of Warwick. 1375 - 1422 Elizabeth de Berkeley 47 47 1417 Elizabeth de Beauchamp 1400 - 1439 Isabel le de Spencer 39 39 1426 Anne Beauchamp 1347 - 1406 Margaret de Ferreres 59 59 1332 - 1370 William de Ferreres 37 37 1330 Margaret de Ufford 1355 - 1388 Henry de Ferreres 33 33 Anne Ferreres 1316 Isabel de Verdun 1294 - 1343 Henry de Ferreres 49 49 1336 - 1375 Elizabeth de Ferreres 39 39 1271 - 1324 William de Ferreres 53 53 1271 - 1316 Ellen de Segrave 45 45 1240 - 1287 William de Ferrers 47 47 He obtained, by gift of Margaret, his mother, the manor of Groby in Leicestershire, assuming the arms of the family of De Quincy.

Life

In 1232, he succeeded Hubert de Burgh as chief justiciar of England.[1] He officiated at the trial of de Burgh, in November 1232, which has been called the "first state trial" in England[2].

As an active coadjutor of Peter des Roches, bishop of Winchester, Segrave incurred some share of the opprobrium which was lavished on the Poitevin royal favourites of Henry III of England. In 1234, he was deprived of his office as Justiciar.[1] Soon, however, he was again occupying an influential position at Henry's court, and he retained this until his death.

He became a knight and was made constable of the Tower of London in 1203. He obtained lands and held various positions under Henry III. He was given the manor where Caludon Castle was built, at Wyken near Coventry in 1232[3] or earlier,[4] by Ranulph de Blondeville, 4th Earl of Chester. Ranulph also granted him Bretby in 1209.[5]

In 1236, he became castellan of Beeston Castle and Chester Castle, jointly with Hugh de Spencer and Henry de Aldithley.[6]

Family

He was the son of a certain Gilbert de Segrave of Segrave in Leicestershire. He married Rohese le Despenser, daughter of Thomas le Despenser; and then Ida Hastings, daughter of William de Hastings and Margery Bigod of Norfolk.[7][8]

[Burke's Peerage]

---------------------------------------------

Stephen de Segrave, who, in the 5th King John [1204], was constable of t he Tower of London, and, remaining faithful to that monarch in his conflic ts with the barons, obtained a grant (17th John) [1216] of the lands of St ephen de Gant, lying in the cos. Lincoln and Leicester, with the man or of Kintone, co. Warwick. In the 4th Henry III [1220], he was made gover nor of Saubey Castle, Leicestershire, and the next year constituted sheri ff of the cos. Essex and Hertford, and afterwards of Leicestershire. In t he 8th of the same reign, he was governor of the castle at Hertford, a nd in two years after, one of the justices itinerant in the cos. Nottingh am and Derby. About this period we find this successful person, whom Matth ew Paris says, in his young days "from a clerk was made a knight," acquiri ng large landed property by purchase. In the 13th Henry III [1229], he bou ght the manor of Cotes, in the co. Derby, from the daus. and heirs of Step hen de Beauchamp, and he afterwards purchase from Ranulph, Earl of Chest er and Lincoln, all the lands which that nobleman possessed at Mount Sorre ll, co. Leicester, without the castle, as also two carucates and a half ly ing at Segrave which himself and his ancestors had previously held at t he rent of 14s. per annum. In the 16th Henry III, he obtained a grant of t he custody of the castle and county of Northampton, as also of the cos. Be dford, Buckingham, Warwick, and Leicester, for the term of his life, taki ng the whole profit of all those shires for his support in that service, e xcepting the ancient farms which had usually been paid into the exchequer.

Having been of the king's council for several years, as also chief justi ce of the Common Pleas, he succeeded, in the 16th Henry III, Hubert de Bur gh in the great office of justiciary of England, being at the same time co nstituted governor of Dover, Canterbury, Rochester, &c., and constab le of the Tower of London. After this we find him, however, opposed by t he bishops and barons and his manor house at Segrave burnt to the grou nd by the populace, as well as another mansion in the co. Huntingdon. T he king, too, in this perilous crisis, deserted him and cited him, along w ith Peter de Rupibus, bishop of Winchester, and others who had been in pow er, to appear forthwith at court in order to answer any charge regarding t he wasting of the public treasure, which might be preferred against the m. Some of those persons, conscious of guilt, fled to sanctuary, and Steph en de Segrave sought an asylum in the abbey of Leicester, where he open ly declared that he was and had been a priest, and that he resolved to sha ve his crown again to be a canon of that house. Nevertheless, upon seco nd thoughts, he braved the storm and appeared at court under the archbisho p's protection, where the king called him a wicked traitor, and told him t hat it was under his advice that he had displaced Hubert de Burgh from t he office of justiciary and cast that eminent person into prison, nay, th at had he gone the full length of his council, Hubert would have been hang ed, and divers of the nobility banished. In twelve months subsequently, ho wever, Stephen de Segrave made his peace by paying 1000 marks to the kin g, and he afterwards grew again into such favour that, in the 21st Henry I II [1237], he was the means of reconciling the king with some of his mo st hostile barons. Subsequently he was made justice of Chester and the kin g's chief councillor, and "being now," says Dugdale, "advanced in years, d eported himself by experience of former times with much more temper and mo deration than heretofore."

This eminent person m. twice - 1st, Rohese, dau. of Thomas le Despencer, a nd 2ndly, Ida, sister of Henry de Hastings, with whom he had in frank-marr iage, the manor of Bruneswaver, co. Warwick. Of Stephen de Segrave, so dis tinguished in the reign of Henry III, Matthew Paris, thus speaks -- "Th is Stephen, though come of no high parentage, was in his youth, of a cle rk made a knight; and in his latter days, through his prudence and valou r, so exalted that he had the reputation of one of the chief men of the re alm, managing the greatest affairs as he pleased. In doing whereof, he mo re minded his own profit than the common good, yet for some good deeds a nd making a discreet testament, he d. with much honour." He departed th is life in 1241, and was s. by his son, Gilbert de Segrave.

1228 Isabel Biset 1352 - 1417 Thomas de Berkeley 65 65 Thomas de Berkeley, b. Berkeley Castle 5 Jan 1352/3, d. 13 July 1417, Lord Berkeley, MP 1381-1415; m. Nov 1367, Margaret, Baroness Lisle, b. 1360, d. 20 Mar 1391/2, daughter of Warin de Lisle, Lord Lisle. [Magna Charta Sureties]

-------------------------------

Thomas de Berkeley, Lord Berkeley, son and heir, who "may bee called Thomas, the Magnificent." He was b. at Berkeley Castle, 5 Jan 1352/3, and after having a ward to his father-in-law, Lord Lisle, made proof of his age on 5 Jan 1373/4. He was summoned to Parliament from 16 July 1381 to 3 Sep 1415. From 1378 to 1385 he served in the wars in France, Spain, Brittany, and Scotland, and in 1386 entertained the King at Berkeley Castle, for the deposition of whom, however, he was, 30 Sep 1399, one of the Commissioners. PC to Richard II and Henry IV. Admiral of the South and West 1403; Joint Warden of the Welsh Marches 1404, and one of the Regents of the Kingdom, Apr 1416.

He m. Nov 1367, in his 15th year, at Wingrave, Bucks, Margaret, de jure suo jure (according to modern doctrine) Baroness Lisle (of Kingston Lisle) and Baroness Tyeys, daughter and heir of Warin de Lisle, Lord Lisle, by Margaret, daughter and coheir of Sir William Pipard. She was then aged but 7, and they remained 4 years apart. At her father's death, 28 June 1382, she inherited considerable estates, and, in her own right, her husband appears to have styled himself Lord Lisle. She d. between May and Sep 1392, and was buried at Wotton-under-Edge, co. Gloucester. He dspm (c) 13 July 1417, in his 65th year and was buried at Wotton aforesaid. M.I. Will dated 2 Feb 1415/6, probated 1417. [Complete Peerage II:130-1, XIV:87]

(c) Elizabeth, his sole daughter and heir, aged 30 in 1416, m. Richard Beauchamp, 13th Earl of Warwick, by whom she had three daughters and coheirs, viz. Margaret, wife of John Talbot, Earl of Shrewsbury; Eleanor, who m. (1) Thomas, Lord Ros, (2) Edmund, Duke of Somerset, and (3) Walter Rokesley, Esq; and Elizabeth, wife of George Neville, Lord Latimer. According to the usual descent of Baronies in fee the dignity created by the Writ of Summons of 1295 and that of 1308, should have devolved on the said Elizabeth, daughter and heir of Thomas, Lord Berkeley, and not upon his collateral heir male; but whether this anomaly arose from an idea then prevailing, that the tenure of the Castle of Berkeley conferred the Barony, or whether the heir male had the greater political influence, cannot now perhaps be ascertained: the inference which may be drawn from the relative situations of the husband of the said Elizabeth, who was one of the most powerful noblemen of the time, and that of James Berkeley who succeeded to the Barony, is, that the tenure of Berkeley Castle was then considered to confer the dignity on its possessor, and consequently that the said James was allowed that dignity as his right, rather than by the favour of the Crown. There were, however, other instances, as in Burghersh and De la War, of the heir male of a Baron by Writ, being summoned instead of the heir general, and if modern decsisions may be applied to the subject, the Baronies of Berkeley, created by the Writs of Summons are now in abeyance between the descendants and representatives of the three daughters and coheirs of Elizabeth, Countess of Warwick, above mentioned, whose names will be found in a Note to the account of the Barony of Lisle; and the Barony possessed by the Earls Berkeley (1658-1882) is that created by the Writ of Summons to James Berkeley 1421.

-------------------------------

She [Margaret Lisle] married, in November 1367, at Wingrave, Bucks, when aged about 7, Thomas BERKELEY, son of Maurice, LORD BERKELEY, by Elizabeth, daughter of Hugh DESPENSER the younger, LORD DESPENSER,[e] which Thomas succeeded his father as LORD BERKELEY 8 June 1368. On 7 July 1379 Thomas and Margaret had a Papal indult for a portable altar. On 30 November 1381 it was agreed between Thomas, Lord Berkeley, and Warin, Lord Lisle, that Margaret wife of Thomas and daughter of Warin should have all Warin's lands; Warin to come and go and dwell at Berkeley Castle, enjoying free hunting and fishing; he and Thomas to travel together in all wars; and the issue of Thomas and Margaret to bear and use the arms of Lisle after Warin's death. They had livery of her stepmother's dower 29 May 1392. She died between May and September 1392, and was buried at Wotton-under-Edge, co. Gloucester.

"It happened that the Queen of France, being then a widow, and a very beautiful woman, became much in love with a knight from an other country, who was a comely person, and in the flower of his youth; and because she thought that no man excelled him in valor, she caused a tournament to be proclaimed throughout her dominions, promising to reward those who should exercise themselves therein, according to their respective abilities; and concluded that if the person whom she so well affected should act his part better than others in those military exercises, she might marry him without any dishonor to herself. Hereupon divers gallant men, from foreign parts hasting to Paris, amongst others came this our William de Albini, bravely accoutered, and in the tournament excelled all others, overcoming many, and wounding one mortally with his lance, which being observed by the queen, she became exceedingly enamored of him, and forthwith invited him to a costly banquet, and afterwards bestowing certain jewels upon him, offered him marriage; but, having plighted his troth to the Queen of England, then a widow, he refused her, whereat she grew so discontented that she consulted with her maids how she might take away his life; and in pursuance of that design, inticed him into a garden, where there was a secret cave, and in it a fierce lion, unto which she descended by divers steps, under color of showing him the beast; and when she told him of its fierceness, he answered, that it was a womanish and not a manly quality to be afraid thereof. But having him there, by the advantage of a folding door, thrust him to the lion; being therefore in this danger, he rolled his mantle about his arm, and putting his hand into the mouth of the beast, pulled out his tongue by the root; which done, he followed the queen to her palace, and gave it to one of her maids to present her. Returning thereupon to England, with the fame of this glorious exploit, he was forthwith advanced to the Earldom of Arundel, and for his arms the Lion given him."

He subsequently married Adeliza of Lorraine, Queen of England, widow of King Henry I., and the daughter of Godfrey, Duke of Lorraine. See her ancestral lineage elsewhere in Volume I. Adeliza had the castle of Arundel in dowry from her deceased husband, the monarch, and thus her new lord became its feudal earl, 1st Earl of Arundel in this family. The earl was one of those who solicited the Empress Maud to come to England, and received her and her brother Robert, Earl of Gloucester, at the port of Arundel, in August 1139, and in three years afterwards (1142), in the report made of King Stephen's taking William de Mandeville at St. Albans, it is stated "that before he could be laid hold on, he underwent a sharp skirmish with the king's party, wherein the Earl of Arundel, though a stout and expert soldier, was unhorsed in the midst of the water by Walceline de Oxeai, and almost drowned." In 1150, he wrote himself Earl of Chichester, but we find him styled again Earl of Arundel, upon a very memorable occasion, namely, the reconciliation of Henry, Duke of Normandy, afterwards King Henry II., and King Stephen at the siege of Wallingford Castle in 1152. "It was scarce possible," says Rapin, "for the armies to part without fighting. Accordingly the two leaders were preparing for battle with equal ardor, when, by the prudent advice of the Earl of Arundel, who was on the king's side, they were prevented from coming to blows." A truce and peace followed this interference of the earl's, which led to the subsequent accession of Henry after Stephen's decease, in whose favor the earl stood so high that he not only obtained for himself and his heirs the castle and honor of Arundel, but a confirmation of the Earldom of Sussex, of which county he was really earl, by a grant of the Tertium Denarium of the pleas of the shire. In 1164, we find the Earl of Arundel deputed with Gilbert Foliot, Bishop of London, to remonstrate with Louis, King of France, upon according an asylum to Thomas a Becket within his dominions, and on the failure of that mission, dispatched with the archbishop of York, the Bishops of Winchester, London, Chichester, and Exeter, Wido Rufus, Richard de Invecestre, John de Oxford (priests), Hugh de Gundevile, Bernard de St. Valery, and Henry Fitzgerald, to lay the whole affair of Becket at the foot of the pontifical throne. Upon levying the aid for the marriage of the king's daughter, in the 12th year of Henry II., the knight's fees of the honor of Arundel were certified to be ninety-seven, and those in Norfolk, belonging to the earl, forty-two. In 1173, we find the Earl of Arundel commanding, in conjunction with William, Earl of Mandeville, the king's army in Normandy, and compelling the French monarch to abandon Verneuil after a long siege, and in the next year, with Richard de Lucy, Justice of England, defeating Robert, Earl of Leicester, then in rebellion at St. Edmundbury. This potent nobleman, after founding and endowing several religious houses, died at Waverley, in Surrey, on October 3, 1176, and was buried in the Abbey of Wymondham. He and his wife, Adeliza, widow of King Henry I., had four sons and three daughters as follows:

1. William de Albini, the eldest son. See below.
2. a second son, no data available at this time.
3. a third son, no data available at this time.
4. a fourth son, no data available at this time.
5. Alice, eldest daughter, married John, Earl of Ewe.
6. a second daughter, no data available at this time.
7. a third daughter, no data available at this time.

-----------------------------------

BARONY OF LISLE (II)

WARIN (DE LISLE), LORD LISLE, and presumably, according to modern doctrine, LORD TEYES, son and heir by 1st wife, was aged 30 at his father's death. He was already a Knight in October 1359, when he was setting out for France with Henry, Earl of Lancaster. In July 1360, his father having held no lands in chief, the escheator was ordered not to interfere, and in August Warin had livery, Richard, Earl of Arundel, undertaking to answer should it be found that any lands were held in chief. In December 1363 Warin del Isle was ordered to bestir himself in the capture of the malefactors who had lately lived by plunder in foreign parts and were now committing outrages in Wiltshire, &c., as he had hitherto failed in his duty in the matter. In 1364 he was made a commissioner of the peace in Berks, and was appointed on other commissions later. He was one of the feoffees of Richard, Earl of Arundel, in 1366. He was summoned to Parliament from 6 April 1369 to 24 March 1381/2, by writs directed Warino de Insula. In July 1362 he had protection on going over seas in the company of the Duke of Lancaster, and at about the same time he was appointed captain and keeper of Portsmouth. In 1372 he was allowed to appoint attorneys for a year, being engaged on the King's service abroad as a banneret, with 4 knights, 5 esquires, and 10 men-at-arms. On 5 March 1376/7 he had licence to crenellate his house at Shirburn, co. Oxford. He was still engaged in the wars in France, but in April 1380 was sent on the King's service into Ireland.

He married, 1stly, in or before 1359, Margaret, widow of Robert FitzElys, and daughter and coheir of Sir William PYPARD, by Margery his wife. She died 3 August 1375. He married, 2ndly, Joan, widow of John WYNNOW, by whom he had no issue. Her parentage is unknown. He died 28 June 1382. His widow died 27 April 1392, holding lands in dower from both her husbands.

Meanwhile in 1357 a Gerard de Lisle, second cousin of the Robert mentioned above and grandson of another Gerard who had acquired the Berkshire manor of Kingston Lisle from his mother, was called to Parliament by writ. He thus became according to later doctrine Lord (Baron) Lisle [the Barony de Lisle of the aforementioned Robert existed until 1428, making two Baronies named the same]. As has been remarked elsewhere, the absurdity of two peers of Parliament with identical titles existing simultaneously is one of the strongest arguments for supposing early writs of summons were no intended to create heritable titles of honour. This 1st Lord Lisle of the 1357 creation also fought at Crecy, as well as in other battles of the Hundred Years War. The 1357 peerage descended to two sole heiresses in succession, who by a later doctrine would have been deemed baronesses in their own right. With the death of the second sole heiress any barony created by the writ of
1357 would have been deemed by later doctrine to have fallen into abeyance. In 1823 a descendant of this second sole heiress, Sir John Shelley Sidney, 1st Baronet, unsuccessfully petitioned the House of Lords to terminate the abeyance in his favour.

----------------------------------------BARONY OF LISLE (I)

GERARD DE LISLE, son and heir, was aged 23 years and more in February 1326/7, and 40 and more in 1350. In March 1326/7 the escheator was ordered not to meddle with the lands, as the father held nothing in chief. He was a Knight in 1327. he was summoned for military service in December 1334 and March 1334/5; to a Council 20 June 1358, and to Parliament 15 December 1357, by writs directed Gerardo de Insula or del Isle, whereby he is held to have become LORD LISLE. In 1333 and 1335 he was engaged in the Scottish wars, in the latter year under Richard, Earl of Arundel. In 1359 he had a dispute with his mother as to the presentation to Stowe church, Northants, but admitted that it was not his turn; he also complained of trespass on his park at Stowe. In June 1340 he was going beyond seas with the Earl of Arundel, and was engaged, as a banneret, in the French camaign of 1346-1347, fighting at Crécy in the Earl's division. In 1347 he succeeded to his mother's inheritance, and, according to modern doctrine, became LORDTEYES. He made an agreement, 5 March 1349/50, to accompany the Earl of Arundel with 30 men-at-arms for 100 marks per annum, receiving £100 before leaving England. In September 1350 he had licence to make a pilgrimage to Rome, with 7 horses. In 1351 he had livery of the manor of Bracken in Kilnwick, part of his mother's inheritance. In August 1354, as Gerard de Insula, dominus de Stowe, he agreed to the appointment of the Pope as arbitrator in the dispute with France. In September 1359 he was again engaged in the French wars. He married, 1stly, in or before 1330, Eleanor, whose parentage is unknown. She was presumably dead in or before 1347 (a). He married,
2ndly, before 3 July 1354, Elizabeth, widow of Edmund (DE ST. JOHN), LORD ST. JOHN, of Basing (died a minor,1347), who held several manors in dower. For a fine of £100 he was pardoned for marrying her without licence. He died 9 June 1360, holding the manor of Kingston Lisle of Robert de Lisle of Rougemont by the service of one knight's fee and a pair of gilt spurs or 6d. His widow married Sir Richard PEMBRUGGE, who survived her. She died 16 September 1362. Complete Peerage VIII:50-1, XIV:443,

(a) When it was reported that Margery, widow of Nicholas de la Beche, had been joined in wedlock to Gerard de Lisle, but had been carried off from Beaumes Manor, near Reading, by Sir John de Dalton and others. Gerard was appointed to arrest the marauders, and, fearing bodily harm in the attempt, was authorized to bear arms. This marriage appears to have been projected only, for Margery married Dalton.

1277 - 1321 Warin de Lisle 44 44 WARIN DE LISLE, son and heir (h) was, as a knight, summoned for military service from May 1298 to May 1319. In 1303 he and others were accused of theft and assault in Berks, but in 1308 he was a conservator of the peace in the town and University of Oxford (n), and in of the same year was made Keeper of Windsor Castle, holding that office till superseded in 1319. In 1315 commissioner of Oyer and terminer in Oxfordshire and Berks. In September 1370 he was accused of inciting to assault and murder and of protecting the assailants at his manors of Kingston and Beedon, Berks. In 1371 he joined with Humphrey de Bohun, Earl of Hereford, and others against the Despensers, thus allying themselves with Thomas, Earl of Lancaster. Next year, described as a banneret, he was in arms against the King at Boroughbridge, 16 March 1321/2, and was captured, condemned as a traitor (d), and executed at Pontefract, dragged by horses and hanged, and was buried in the Black Friars' church there.

---

He married Alice, sister and heir of Henry, and daughter of Henry TEYES (LORDS TEYES), who was aged 30 and more in 1327. In 1334 his widow obtained leave to transfer his body and that of her brother Henry (also executed and buried in the Carmelites' church in London, to Chilton, Wilts, where her ancestors were buried and where chantries were founded. Though her husband's forfeited estates were given to the Despensers and others, she was allowed maintenance. In Dec 1326 she had a grant of the custody of Kingston and other of her husband's manors, and in March following had a further grant of all the goods of her late husband and her brother Henry. As all proceedings against Thomas, Earl of Lancaster, and his adherents were annulled in the Parliament of 1 Edward III, the forfeiture of her brother Henry was presumably reversed and she would, according to modern doctrine, be held to have become Baroness Teys or Tyes. In 1330 she received a general pardon and in 1332 obtained a charter for markets and fairs at Penzance and other manors in Cornwall, and in 1336 a charter for the free warren at Chilton, Kingston Lisle, etc. She died 2 August 1347 (o). [Complete Peerage VIII:48-9 (h) He must be distinguished from his contemporary, Warin de Lisle of the Rougemont line.

(n) On 2 May the Chancellor, Masters and scholars were informed that though Warin de Lisle and another had been so appointed, it was not the King's intention to infringe their liberties. (d) He was charged with various felonies, resisting the King at Burton, burning part of the town, etc.

(o) In 1342 she excused her non-attendance at an inquisition on the plea that she was nurse of the King's son Richard, but it was alleged that this was false, the King having no son of that name.

Edward I and, in the beginning of Edward II's reign, was constituted governor of Windsor Castle and warden of the forest. For years subsequently he was engaged in Scotland, but joining Thomas, Earl of Lancaster, against the Spencers, 1320-1, and sharing in the discomfiture of his chief, he was taken prisoner and hanged at York with the Lord Mowbray and several others.

FINAL CONCORDS
FOR THE COUNTY OF LINCOLN
Case 130, File 31: 29 Henry III

No. 1. This is the Final Concord made in the court of the lord the King at Nottingham in eight days of the apostles Peter and Paul in the 29th year of the reign of King Henry, son of King John [6 July, 1245], before Norman de Arcy, Roger de
Thurkelby, Henry de Bretton and Gilbert de Preston, justices itinerant, and other faithful men of the lord the king then present there.

Between Gunnora de Sechevill, querent, and Gilbert de Gaunt, touching this, that Gunnora complained that Gilbert has not observed a fine made to her in the court of the lord king, before the justices at Westminster, between Ralph de Sechevill and the said Gunnora, querents, and Gilbert de Gaunt, father of the said Gilbert, impedient, of 5 carucates of land, 3 bovates and 2 acres of land, 69½ tofts and the fourth part of 1 toft in Barthon, and of the service of the fee of 3 knights, with the appurtenances, in Barthon, Feriby, Thorp' and Brandon; and whereupon Gunnora complained that Gilbert demanded toll of each tenant of Gunnora in the said vill according to the use of foreign merchants; and that each tenant of Gunnora should do suit at Gilbert's mill in the same vill; and that Gunnora could not build mills upon her land in the vill of Barthon, nor have suit of her men at the same mills; and that each tenant of Gunnora should give sheriff's aid and view of frank pledge; and that neither Gunnora nor her men could carry their corn and hay without Gilbert's leave; and that if it should befall that any thief should be taken by Gilbert or his men, Gunnora's men should guard the same thief together with the township (villala); and that all Gunnora's tenants should do suit at Gilbert's next court at Barthon after the feast of St. Michael by reason of any toll which Gilbert was used to receive of Gunnora's men.

Whereupon a plea of fine made was summoned between them in the same court, to wit, that, Gilbert has granted for himself and his heirs that Gunnora and her heirs shall build mills in the same vill of Barthon wherever they will in a fit place upon their land; and have suit of their own men at the same mills. Gilbert has also granted for himself and his heirs that they shall not henceforth demand of Gunnora or her heirs or her men sheriff's aid or view of frank pledge, except two pence only in respect of each bovate of land at the feast of St. Michael as they were used to be rendered in the time of Gilbert de Gaunt, the father of Gunnora; or suit of court of the men of Gunnora or her heirs at the court of himself or his heirs by reason of any toll.

And for this grant Gunnora has granted for herself and her heirs, as much as belongs to them, that Gilbert and his heirs shall have toll of 59 tofts and the fourth part of one toft which Gunnora and her men hold in burgage in the same vill; so, to wit, that every one who shall hold any one of these tofts in chief with his household, which shall be of his domestic service (manupastu), shall be quit of toll and stallage in water and market-place for 4d. to be rendered yearly to Gilbert or his heirs, that is to say, at the feast of St. Michael 1d., at the nativity of our Lord 1d., at Easter 1d., and at the feast of St. Botulph 1d. If, however, any one of those holding the said tofts in chief shall have received any others into his aforesaid tofts who shall not be of his domestic service, they shall give toll and stallage in water and market-place according to the custom of foreign merchants. If, however, there shall be any waste of the said 59 tofts so that no man shall dwell in one of them, no toll shall be given therefor as long as it shall be waste. Gunnora has also granted for herself and her heirs that if any thief shall be taken in the fee of herself or her heirs by her or her heirs or her men, he shall be kept by her or her heirs or her men until the next court of Gilbert or his heirs which shall sit in the vill of Barthon, provided, nevertheless, that the said court shall sit within 3 weeks after the taking of the said thief. And if it
happen that Gilbert or his heirs are then unwilling to receive the thief, it shall be lawful for Gunnora and her heirs to deliver him to the bailiffs of the lord the king without gainsaying of Gilbert or his heirs.

And for this grant Gilbert has granted for himself and his heirs that if any thief shall be taken in the fee of himself or his heirs or in another fee by Gilbert or his heirs or his men, he shall be kept by Gilbert or his heirs or his men; and
if the thief shall escape neither Gunnora nor her heirs nor her men shall answer for that escape. And Gunnora and her heirs and her men shall answer for an escape in respect of her own fee.

Gilbert has also granted for himself and his heirs that Gunnora and her heirs shall carry their corn and hay in the said vill of Barthon, which shall be of her demesne, whenever they will, as Gilbert de Gaunt her father could carry them when he held that demesne in his hand.

And be it known that all the articles contained in a chirograph formerly made (fn. 1) between Gilbert de Gaunt, father of the said Gilbert de Gaunt, and Ralph de Secheuill, formerly the husband of Gunnora, and the said Gunnora, shall wholly stand, unless they are contrary to any articles contained in this chirograph.

As at Kington the Pipard family held Bishampton under the Pichards. Robert Pipard was the tenant towards the end of the 12th century under John Pichard. (fn. 19) A Robert Pipard held the manor for the service of a knight's fee at the beginning of the 13th century. (fn. 20) At this point the manor seems to have been divided, part passing with Kington to Guy Pipard and part to William Pipard, who may have been a younger brother of Guy.

The other part of the Pipards' manor was apparently held by William Pipard in 1234 and 1240–1. (fn. 52) It was, perhaps, this estate which was sold in 1313–14 as land at Bishampton by William son of Cecily Pipard, kinsman and one of the heirs of Robert Pipard, to Guy de Beauchamp Earl of Warwick.

ROBERT DE LISLE, son and heir, in 1264obtained a charter of free warren in his demesne lands of Rampton and Wilbraham, co. Cambridge, and Nedging, Suffolk. As Sir Robert de Insula he attested a Cambridgeshire charter about the same time. He was summoned for the campaign against Llewelyn in 1282.

He married, 1stly, before 1252, Mabel, widow of Hervey, baron of Stafford (died 1241), and daughter of Sir Robert DE MUSCEGROS, of Charlton, by Hawise, daughter and coheir of Sir William MALET, of Curry Malet. Robert de Lisle and Mabel quitclaimed to John de Muscegros 10 librates of land in Kemarton, co. Gloucester, which Mabel had in free marriage from her father, and for this and 200 marks John gave her 20 librates of land in Finborough, Suffolk. Robert married, 2ndly, Alice. He died in 1284. His widow was living in 1290.  [Complete Peerage VIII:70, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]

-------------

Note: I have put Mabel's prior marriage in, but I am not sure it happened, and I haven't changed any estimated birth dates for Mabel to facilitate it happening.  The CP entry for Hervey describes his wife Mabel as daughter of Richardde Mucegros (sic.), who I believe was father of Robert de Muscegros.  Since Hervey died in 1241, and Robert de Lisle may well have not been born in 1241, it is very unusual for a widow to marry as her 2nd husband, a man who was not bornby the time her 1st husband died!  So I think that the Mabel who married Hervey de Stafford was daughter of Richard and aunt of this Mabel who m.

This date is well established by a concurrence of charters of confirmation; from Pope Innocent II. in 1137 and Eugenius III. in 1145, and from Henry I. in 1133, Stephen, and Henry II., and the connection with Arrouaise is equally well attested. The charters of Henry I. and Alexander of Lincoln expressly state that there were at first but seven canons in the house, and that they came originally from the church of St. Mary 'de Bosco (or de Nemore) de pago Terresino.'

An inquisition taken on oath, in the year 1331, states that it was founded in 1293, by Sir William de Missenden; although it might be supposed that there could be a little doubt of the authority of so solemn a record of a fact, then so recent,, yet there is good reason for supposing that the abbey existed at an earlier period. An old register of the convent dates its foundation in 1133. An ancient court-book of the manor says that it was founded by the Doyleys, and augmented by the Missendens, pursuant to a vow, made on escaping from shipwreck. It is probable therefore that the benefactions of Sir William de Missenden, in 1293, were of such importance, and the former income of the convent so small, that it was looked upon as a second foundation, and that he was even in his own time called and deemed the founder, as bishop Rotheram is even now called the second founder of Lincoln College, in Oxford. Sir William de Missenden, among other benefactions, gave the manor of this place to the abbey, and his family were its patrons. The patronage was afterwards in the Brudenells

(Research):The name of William de Noers (d. after 1086) appears in the "Domesday Book", an extensive census of England taken in 1086 by William the Conqueror. William de Noers was described in this survey as an "under-tenant", meaning that he was under the jurisdiction of another greater lord, William the Bishop of Thetford. William de Noers received 33 manors from William the Conqueror, King of England, probably as a result of his service during the Battle of Hastings. He was said to have stood very high in the eyes of the King. He was the Steward of King William, according to one record. This position was the sixth highest ranking position in the English kingdom, after the King himself. William de Noers also held a manor in Suffolk County (where his name was spelled Willielmus de Noers) and in Cambridge County (spelled Willielmus de Nouueres). In addition he was placed in charge of the lands of Bishop Stigand "in the King's hand", which lands included many manors in Norfolk. Bishop Stigand died in 1072 after having fallen out of pleasure with the King. He had held large land holdings prior to his death, some of which were passed to William de Noers. William de Noers was a baron, but was not mentioned extensively in royal documentation. His name has not been found outside of the "Domesday Book."
Shortly after William the Conqueror captured England he granted most of the lands that had been in the hands of English nobility to his followers, as he had done for William de Noers. He also ordered twenty years later, in 1085, that a census be taken of all his newly acquired lands. It was the most extensive census that had ever been taken of any lands and remains to this day one of the most complete records of its kind. The census took about a year to complete. The census takers were ordered to list the name of the location, who held it before 1066 and who held it in 1085. In addition the size of the manors was given, how many ploughs, villagers, cottagers, slaves, freemen, and socmen (another distinction of freeman). The amount of woodland, meadows, and pasture was listed, along with the numbers of mills and fishponds. Whether property was added to or taken away from the original structure before the conquest was included. The total value of the land before 1066 and again at 1085 was enumerated. And finally it was determined how much each freeman or socman had before 1066, when William gave it, and in 1085 when the census was taken.
