  TEXT Sheriff of KentExcerpted from Les Seigneurs de Bohon by Jean LeMelletier, Coutances:Arna ud-Bellee, 1978:
  Humphrey V, second earl of Hereford, first earl of Essex, and constable of England, was als o called the good earl of Hereford.  He was a contemporary of Henry III and died 24 Septembe r 1274/5. Born before 1208, Humphrey married twice. His first wife was Maud (Mathilda), daugh ter of Ralphof Lusignan, count d'Eu (who died 1219). His second wife was Maud (Mathilda) of A vebury, daughter and heiress of Roger of Tosny (who died 1264). Humphrey succeeded his fathe r on 1 June 1220, then came into possession of his lands and was confirmed earl of Hereford . After the death of his maternal uncle, William of Mandeville, he inherited the title of ear l of Essex (28 April 1228). In 1227 Humphrey V helped solve a quarrel between Henry III and h is brother, Richard, earl of Cornwall (whom Humphrey supported). He declared his intentions t o postpone the judgment of the king's court and royal lords. The king refused and ordered hi m to submit or give up his titles. With other important barons Humphrey took the side of Rich ard. The conspirators raised an army, and at Stamford (Lincoln) they demanded the reinstateme nt of the earl's duties, an apology, and the confirmation of the liberties guaranteed by th e document. The king conceded. Humphrey was reinstated as marshall of the king's house. He se rved at the marriage of Henry III and Eleanor of Provence (1236), and was one of nine godfath ers at the christening of the future EdwardI (1239). In 1242 Henry III led an expedition to r econquer Poitou, which was occupied by Louis VIII of France. Humphrey accompanied him in Gasc ogny, but became irritated by the influence of the strangers/counselors under the king. He re turned to England with the duke of Cornwall. The expedition later ended as a loss. Two year s later with the earl of Clare, Humphrey took part in the suppression of a Welsh revolt.  Aft er an initial success, they were defeated, partly because the earl had been accused of embezz ling part of the inheritance of his sister-in-law, Isabelle (wife of David who was son of Lle welyn).   In 1246 Humphrey joined in a letter to Pope Innocent IV denouncing the oppression e xercised over England by the court of Rome. In 1248 Humphrey was presented to Parliament. I n 1250 he took the cross and went to the Holy Land. In the meantime the queen was lavishing f avors on the French in her entourage and the king increased his spending, causing disconten t among the barons. In 1253 Humphrey participated in a grand remonstrance made to the king a t Westminster Hall with the "bell, book, and candle" for violations against the Magna Carta , a prelude to the revolt. The same year he founded the church of the Augustin Brothers on Br oad Street in London. In 1254 he was in Gascogny with the king.  From 1256-1258 " Mr. Humphre y de Boun" participated in many battles with the Welsh. In 1259 he was one of the barons wh o worked to re-establish a truce between King Henry III and Llewelyn, Prince of Wales. But th e following year there were again hostilities between the two. The king summoned Richard of C lare and Humphrey de Bohon to the army with other lords, Humphrey de Boun Jr. and Frank de Bo un.  Humphrey was one of the councillors to draw up the Provisions of Oxford in 1258 which af firmed the Magna Carta and reformed its misuse. He was one of the Council of Fifteen that adv ised the king. The next year he was commissioner to ratify a treaty between France and Englan d. In 1260 Humphrey was a traveling judge for the counties of Hereford, Gloucester, and Worce ster. In 1262, he negotiated peace with Llewelyn of Wales.  Humphrey V's attitude toward th e new conflicts between the king and the barons has been confused with that of his son. Whe n the barons divided their confederation Humphrey sided with Simon deMontfort. In 1263 he wa s one ofthe important barons who supported the king while his son was on the opposite side. H umphrey was taken prisoner at the Battle of Lewes. Humphrey V was chosen one of 12 arbitrator s to bring peace between the king and Simon. He died 24 September 1275 on the way to Kenilwor th (Warwick). There the king stated the principles he was willing to compromise on to end th e revolt surrounding Kenilworth Castle.  Humphrey was buried with his ancestors at Lanthony . REF: "Falls the Shadow" Sharon Kay Penman:  On April 3, 1264 King Henry leads his Red Drago n Standard & Army for Northampton, where most of Simon de Montfort's forces are.  April 4, 12 64 they arrive at Northampton & confer with Prince Edward (the real leader of the Royalist fo rces) for a strategy session, those present included Philip Basset (whose son-in-law Sir Hug h le Despenser was an ally of Simon's), Humphrey de Bohun V the Earl of Hereford whose son Hu mphrey de Bohun VI was with Simon, Hughle Bigod was there & his step son Baldwin Wake was wit h Simon.  Daffydd ap Gruffydd was also there, as he continued to be in exile in England, alii ed with Prince Edward against his own brother Llywelyn ap Gruffydd.
