ID: I19973
Name: *William MONTACUTE
Sex: M
Birth: in Shepton Montagu, Wincanton, Somerset, England
Death: 1218 1
Occupation: BET 1205 AND 1209 Sheriff of Dorsetshire and Somersetshire 1
Note:
William de Montacuto, the second son, succeeded to the Barony, and in 6th of Richard I, 1196, paid œ6-1-6 for his estates in County Somerset, as scutage for the king's ransom. (This was Richard Couer de Lion, who was taken prisoner by the Germans as he was returning to England, after the Third Crusade.) He was Sheriff of Dorsetshire and Somersetshire in 6-7-8-9 years of King John, 1205-1209; which fully proves his importance at this time, when none but persons of the greatest rank and property were admitted to that office. Being one of the great barons of that reign who stood up for the liberties of their country, and being found 17th of John, in arms with the rebellious barons against the king, he was stripped of his lands in Counties Dorset and Somerset, which were seized by the king, and given to Ralph de Raleigh. He died 1218.
