JOHN LESTRANGE V, son and heir, aged 22 and more at the date of his father's death; on 16 May 1276 he had done homage, and was to have his lands. In 1277 he was going to Wales on the King's service. On 10 January 1277/8, as "the king's yeoman", he had pardon for a debt due from his father. In 1292 he established his claim to free warren in Ness, Milton and Middle. On 12 December 1276, and frequently thereafter until 1287, he was summoned to serve against the Welsh; in 1294 he was summoned to Portsmouth to cross to France; and from 1298 to 1308 he was summoned to serve against the Scots. From 26 September 1299 to 10 March 1307/8 he was summoned to Parliament by writs directed Johanni Extraneo, whereby he is held to have become LORD STRANGE, and from 4 March 1308/9 to 12 December 1309 by writs directed Johanni Lestraunge de Knokyn. His seal was appended to the Barons' Letter to the Pope, where he is described as Johannes Lestraunge dominus de Knokyn or Johannes le Straungge. On 18 January 1307/8 he was summoned to attend the Coronation of Edward II. In 1308 he obtained a licence to crenellate his house of Middle.

[Burke's Peerage]
