Sir Thomas de Furnival, succeeded to the feudal barony, and Henry III committed to his wardship William de Moubray, son of Roger de Moubray, a great Yorkshire baron. Of this Thomas nothing more is known than his being slain by the Saracens in the Holy Land, where he had journeyed on a pilgrimage, and that his body was brought from thence by his brother Gerard and buried at Worksop. By Bertha, his wife, he had a son and successor, Thomas de Furnival, who had license in the 54th of Henry III to make a castle of his manor house of Sheffield, County York.
