Guy deBeauchamp 10th Earl of Warwick 
Guy deBeauchamp 10th Earl of was born in 1271 in Elmley Castle, Elmley, Worcestershire, England. Guy deBeauchamp 10th Earl of's father was Earl William IV deBeauchamp and his mother was Maud FitzJohn. His paternal grandparents were Earl William III Beauchamp and Isobel deMauduit; his maternal grandparents were John FitzGeoffrey and Isabel Bigod. He had a sister named Isabel. He was the younger of the two children. He died at the age of 44 on August 12th, 1315.General Notes
Guy acquired high military honors in the martial reign of Edward I,distinguishing himself at the Battle of Falkirk, for which he wasrewarded with extensive grants of land in Scotland, at the seige ofCaerlaverock, and upon different occasions and also beyond the seas. Inthe reign of Edward II (1306-1326) he likewise played a very prominentpart. In 1310 his lordship was in the commission appointed by parliamentto draw up regulations for "the well governing of the kingdom and theking's household," in consequence of the corrupt influence at that periodby Piers Gaveston, in the affairs of the realm, through the unboundedpartiality of the king; and in two years afterwards, when that unhappyfavorite fell into the hands of his enemies, upon the surrender ofScarborough Castle, his lordship violently seized upon his person, andafter a summary trial caused him to be beheaded at Blacklow Hill nearWarwick. The Earl's hostility to Gaveston is said to have been muchincreased by learning that the favorite had nicknamed him "the Black Dogof Aedenne." For this unwarrantable proceeding his lordship, and allothers concerned therein, received in two years the royal pardon, but heis supposed to have eventually perished by poison, administered by thepartisans of Gaveston.
The Earl married Alice, daughter of Ralph de Toni, son (by Alice deBohun) of Ralph de Toni of Flamstead, County Herts, and had Thomas, hissuccessor, John, Maud, Emma, Isabel, Elizabeth and Lucia. This great Earlof Warwick was, like most of the nobles of his time, a munificentbenefactor to the church, having bestowed lands upon several religioushouses, and founded a chantry of priests at his Manor of Elmley. His willbears date "at Warwick Castle" on Monday next after the Feast of St.James the Apostle 1315, and by it he bequeaths to Alice, his wife, aproportion of his plate, with a crystal cup, and half his bedding; asalso all the vestments and books belonging to his chapel; the othermoiety of his beds, rings and jewels he gives to his daughters. To hisson Thomas his best coat of mail, helmet and suit of harness, and to hisson John his second suit of mail, etc., appointing that all the rest ofhis armour, bows and other warlike "provisions" should remain at WarwickCastle for his heir. His widow married 2nd William la Zouche of Ashby,County Leicester. The Earl died at Warwick Castle August 12, 1315,succeeded by his eldest son, then but two years of age.
