Domesday Descendants names "Letitia daughter and co-heir of Robert de Lucy, possibly the nephew of Richard de Lucy the justiciar" as the wife of Henry de Pinkeney, but does not cite the corresponding primary source[105]. "Henry de Pinkeni and Leticia his wife" and "Serlo de Marci and Emma his wife" granted land "in Cristehale" to "William Barun", dated [1198/99][106]. If this is correct, the precise family relationship has not yet been traced.

The Testa de Nevill records 1219 in Cumberland that "Thomas de Muleton" had "duas filias Ricardi de Lucy in custodia per dominum Regem Johannem” and married them to “duobus filiis suis"[114]. A document dated [19 May] 1226 records pleas in a lawsuit involving “Lambert de Muleton and Amabilis his wife, and Alan de Muleton and Alicia his wife”[115].

LORDS MARMION

Loyd indicates that this family originated in Fontenay-le-Marmion in the present-day French département of Calvados, arrondissement Caen, canton Bourguébus[120]. Vautier suggests that the Marmion family held the seigneurie de Fontenay "dès le principe, elle fut probablement créée pour eux", but adds that part of the seigneurie was transferred to the FitzErneis family with the marriage of Gersende Marmion, daughter of Robert Marmion [I], to Robert [II] FitzErneis[121].

1. GUILLAUME Marmion (-after 29 Aug 1060). "…Willelmo Marmio…" witnessed the charter dated 29 Aug 1060 under which "milite…Richardo…fratribus Willelmo…atque Balduino" donated "Gausberti Villa" to Chartres Saint-Père[122].

2. ROGER Marmion (-after 1066). The Chronique de Normandie, based on le Roman de Rou, names "Rogier Marmion" among those who took part in the conquest of England in 1066[123]. The accuracy of this statement is unknown.

3. ROBERT Marmion [I] (-after 1086, maybe after 1113). Vaultier states that Robert Marmion was granted Tamworth for his part in the conquest of England and the lordship of "Scrivelsbye" in Lincolnshire[124]. [The Chronicle of Bermondsey records that in 1113 “Robertus Marmyon” donated “hidam de Wideflet...” to Bermondsey abbey[125]. It is not known to which Robert Marmion this relates.] m HAWISE, daughter of ---. Vaultier states that "Hadvise veuve de Robert seigneur de Fontenay le Marmion" donated property to the abbey of Sainte-Trinité de Caen, with the consent of "ses fils Roger, Helton et Manassès", by charter dated to 1066 or soon after [presumably misdated][126]. Henry II King of England confirmed the possessions of the abbey of la Trinité de Caen, including the donation by "Haudvise uxoris Roberti Marmion" of land "in Sancto Georgio et in Jurkis et molendinum de la Boista et le Parket", by charter dated to [1180/82][127]. Robert [I] & his wife had four children:

a) ROGER Marmion (-after [1115/18], maybe [1129]). Vaultier states that "Hadvise veuve de Robert seigneur de Fontenay le Marmion" donated property to the abbey of Sainte-Trinité de Caen, with the consent of "ses fils Roger, Helton et Manassès", by charter dated to 1066 or soon after [presumably misdated][128]. The Descriptio militum de Abbatia de Burgo records "Roger Marmiun" with "ii milites" held from "abbatia de Burch" [in Hampshire][129]. The Lindsey Survey, dated to [1115/18], records "Roger Marmion" holding land in Fulstow [held at Domesday by Robert Marmion], Tatwell, Scrivelsby and other places [all held at Domesday by Robert Despencer][130]. The 1130 Pipe Roll entry of his son Robert Marmion [III] suggests that Roger may have died shortly before that date. m ---. The name of Roger’s wife is not known. Roger & his wife had one child:

i) ROBERT Marmion [III] of Tamworth, Staffordshire (-killed in battle [1143/44]). His parentage is confirmed by the charter dated to [1144] under which King Stephen granted the land of "Rogeri avi sui et Roberti Marmium patris sui" to [his grandson] "Roberto Marmium"[131].

- see below.

b) HELTON Marmion . Vaultier states that "Hadvise veuve de Robert seigneur de Fontenay le Marmion" donated property to the abbey of Sainte-Trinité de Caen, with the consent of "ses fils Roger, Helton et Manassès", by charter dated to 1066 or soon after [presumably misdated][132].

c) MANASSES Marmion . Vaultier states that "Hadvise veuve de Robert seigneur de Fontenay le Marmion" donated property to the abbey of Sainte-Trinité de Caen, with the consent of "ses fils Roger, Helton et Manassès", by charter dated to 1066 or soon after [presumably misdated][133].

d) GERSENDE Marmion . She is named in a charter dated 1217 under which "Robertus filius Erneisi sextus" confirmed donations to Fontenay by "antecessore meo bonæ memoriæ Roberto filio Erneisi secundo", which quotes the donation by "Robertus…et Gersendis uxor mea filia Roberti Marmionis"[134]. Vaultier dates this donation quoted in the charter to after 1087[135]. m ([before 1087]) ROBERT [II] FitzErneis, son of ROBERT [I] FitzErneis & his wife ---.

4. ROBERT Marmion [II] (-after 1091). "…Rotberti Marmion…" consented to the donation of "decimam Ansfredi Villæ" to Sainte-Trinité de Rouen by "Gernagois et Albereda uxor eius, cum filiis suis Willelmo et Rotberto" by charter dated 1091[136]. "…Robert Marmion…" witnessed the undated charter under which Robert III Duke of Normandy donated property to Saint-Etienne de Caen[137]. From a chronological point of view, it is possible that Robert Marmion [II] was the same person as Robert [I].

5. WALTER Marmion . “Baderon de Monemue” donated property in Monmouth to Monmouth Priory, with the consent of “filiorum meorum Gileberti et Jacobi”, by undated charter witnessed by "…Waltero Marmiun…"[138].

6. GEOFFREY Marmion (-after 1158). The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Galfrido Marmion" in Warwick in [1158/59][139].

ROBERT Marmion [III] of Tamworth, Staffordshire, son of ROGER Marmion & his wife --- (-killed in battle [1143/44]). His parentage is confirmed by the charter dated to [1144] under which King Stephen granted the land of "Rogeri avi sui et Roberti Marmium patris sui" to [his grandson] "Roberto Marmium"[140]. The 1130 Pipe Roll records "Robt Marmion" owing in Lincolnshire for “terre patris sui”[141]. William of Newburgh records that “Robertus...Marmiun...homo bellicosus, ferocia, astutia, audacia, feri nulli suo tempore impar”, who had expelled the monks from Coventry church, was killed by a soldier in the Earl of Chester’s army, maybe dated to [1143/44][142]. Henry II King of England confirmed the possessions of the abbey of Barberie, including donations by "Roberti Marmium, concessione Roberti filii sui et uxoris sue et filiarum suarum", by charter dated to [1182/89][143]. "Philippus de Marmiun filius et hæres Roberti le Marmiun" recalls the donation of “Buteyate” to Bardney by “Robertus Marmiun…et Milesent uxor mea et Robertus filius meus” by charter dated Jun 1248[144].

m as her first husband, MELISENDE de Rethel, daughter of GERVAIS de Rethel & his wife Elisabeth de Namur ([1121/23]-after 1154). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records that [her stepfather] "Clarenbaldus de Roseto" alienated the lands of “filiastram suam Gervasii filiam” and married her to "cuidam nobili Roberto Marmioni de Normannia", without giving her name[145]. The Complete Peerage names her “Elizabeth” and identifies her husband as Robert Marmion [IV] without citing any primary source on which it bases this statement[146]. From a chronological point of view, it is more likely that the husband of Gervais de Rethel’s daughter was Robert Marmion [III], considering especially that Robert [III]’s wife had three known children by her second husband whom she married after Robert died in [1143/44]. If that is correct, other sources quoted below confirm that Robert [III]’s wife was named Mélisende, not Elisabeth, presumably after her paternal grandmother. She married secondly (after [1143/44]) as his second wife, Richard [I] de Camville. A charter dated to [1200], recounting the history of a donation of land to Eynsham abbey, records that King [Henry I] granted “Stantonam [cum] quadam femina” to “Roberto Marmiun”, and that “post Robertum Marmiun” the king granted “predictam Milisent” to “Ricardo de Kamuilla”[147]. Domesday Descendants refers to the second marriage of Mélisende, whom it calls “a kinswoman of Queen Adelicia”[148]. The primary source which confirms Mélisende’s family connection with the second wife of Henry I King of England has not been identified. The Victoria County History of Oxfordshire states that the queen “before 1141...gave to her kinswoman Millicent, wife of Robert Marmion, land in Stanton Harcourt and South Leigh...”, without citing the corresponding primary source[149]. In light of the previous information, her second marriage is indicated by the charter dated 1154 under which Henry Duke of Normandy [the future King Henry II] confirmed Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire to "Milicenti uxori Ricardi de Camvilla in feodo et hereditate sibi…sicut regina Adelisia…in maritagium dedit" by charter dated 1154[150]. “Ricardus de Camvilla” donated “terciam partem decimarum...apud Hottoth” to Jumièges, for the souls of “uxoris mee Adelicie et sequentis uxoris mee Milesente...Rogeri fratris mei”, by charter dated [5 Apr 1170/27 Mar 1171], subscribed by “Ricardi filii mei...”[151]. "Philippus de Marmiun filius et hæres Roberti le Marmiun" recalls the donation of “Buteyate” to Bardney made by “Robertus Marmiun…et Milesent uxor mea et Robertus filius meus” by charter dated Jun 1248[152].

Robert [III] & his wife had two children:

1. ROBERT Marmion [IV] (-before Oct 1181). King Stephen granted the land of "Rogeri avi sui et Roberti Marmium patris sui" to "Roberto Marmium" by charter dated to [1144][153]. "[Rodbertus] Marmiun" donated land in Roughton to Kirkstead abbey by charter dated 1163[154]. [The 1164/65 Pipe Roll records "Rob fil Milesent" accounting for land in Yorkshire[155]. It is not certain that this entry relates to Robert Marmion [IV], but this looks probable because Melisende was not a common name in England at that time.] The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Robertus Marmion vii l xii s viii d, de novo lxx s" in Warwickshire, Leicestershire in [1167/68][156]. "…Simon de Tornebu, Robertus Marmion et Willelmus de Glanvilla" reported the results of an enquiry into rights to the church of Surrain by charter dated Jan 1176[157]. "…Roberto Marmion…" subscribed the charter dated to [1172/78] under which Henry II King of England confirmed the freedoms of the town of Rouen[158]. Robert [IV] died before Oct 1181, the date of his son’s confirmation to Barberie abbey (see below). Henry II King of England confirmed the possessions of the abbey of Barberie, including donations made by "Roberti Marmium, concessione Roberti filii sui et uxoris sue et filiarum suarum", by charter dated to [1182/89][159]. m ---. The name of Robert’s wife has not been found. The Complete Peerage names “Elizabeth, daughter of Gervase, son of Hugh Count of Rethel” as the wife of Robert Marmion [IV] without citing any primary source on which it bases this statement[160]. As noted above, it is more likely that the daughter of Gervais de Rethel was the wife of Robert Marmion [III]. Robert [IV] & his wife had one child:

a) ROBERT Marmion [V] (-before [1217]). "Robert Marmion, fils de Robert" confirmed the donations to the abbey of Barberie made by his father by charter dated Oct 1181[161].

- see below.

2. daughters . Henry II King of England confirmed the possessions of the abbey of Barberie, including donations by "Roberti Marmium, concessione Roberti filii sui et uxoris sue et filiarum suarum", by charter dated to [1182/89][162]. The number of daughters is not known.

The primary sources which confirm the parentage of the following family members have not been identified.

1. GEOFFREY Marmion (-after 1166). Military fee certifications in the Red Book of the Exchequer, in 1166, record that "Galfridus Marmiun" held one knight’s fee from "Roberti Marmiun" in Warwickshire[163].

2. MABEL Marmion (-before 3 Dec 1215). The primary sources which confirm her parentage and [first] marriage have not been identified. The chronology of her [first] husband’s family suggests that Mabel could have belonged to the same generation as Robert Marmion [V]. Her possible second marriage is indicated by the following document. King John granted “totam terram que fuit Hug de Ferr ex parte Margar ux sue i balla tua” to “Willo de Kantilupo”, dated [15/21] Aug 1204, followed by an order to the sheriff of Worcester in favour of “eidem W totam terram que fuit Hug de Ferr ex parte ipsi Margar et tota terra que fuit Rog de Aumundevill ex parte Mabil ux eius”[164]. “Margar” was Margery de Say, Mabel’s daughter by her [first] marriage. The document makes no connection between “Margar” and “Mabil”, although the transfer of the lands of both ladies suggests a connection, which in turn suggests that “Mabil” may have been the same person as Margery de Say’s mother or, alternatively, that she was an otherwise unrecorded sister of Margery de Say. The following document suggests that Mabel was deceased at the time: King John ordered the sheriff of Sussex to grant “terram...in Berewic q fuit Mabilie de Say matris ‘uxoris’ ipsius Robti et q fuit in manu Rob Marmiun senioris” to “Robto de Mortuo Mari”, dated 3 Dec 1215[165]. m [firstly] HUGH de Say [II], son of HUGH de Say [I] & his wife Lucy Clifford ([1165/70]-killed in battle ([1196]). [m secondly ROGER de Amundeville, son of --- (-before [15/21] Aug 1204).] .

3. ALBREDA Marmion (-after 1220). King John confirmed "castellum et villam de Landesteph" to "G. de Camvill fil Will de Kamvill", naming "Albred Marmion matre ipsius Gaufridi", by charter dated 25 Apr 1200[166]. Bracton records a claim, dated 1220, by "Albreda Marmiun" against "Henricum de Aldithelega" for "ecclesiam de Cliftona", adding that she had custody of "terram…Gaufrido de Camuilla filio suo"[167]. m WILLIAM de Camville, son of --- (-before 25 Apr 1200).

ROBERT Marmion [V], son of ROBERT Marmion [IV] & his wife --- (-before [1217]). "Robert Marmion, fils de Robert" confirmed the donations to the abbey of Barberie made by his father by charter dated Oct 1181[168]. "Raoul Taisson, fils de Jourdain Taisson" donated property to Sainte-Marie-de-Barberie and confirmed the donations by "Robert Marmion" by undated charter[169]. Henry II King of England confirmed the franchise of pleas for the land of "Roberti Marmium" by charter dated to [1172/89][170]. The Red Book of the Exchequer, listing scutage payments in [1190/91], records "Robertus de Marmion" paying "cxiv s vi d" in Warwickshire, Leicestershire[171]. The Red Book of the Exchequer, listing scutage payments in [1194/95], records "Robertus Marmiun" among those granted delayed payment "per brevia" in Lincolnshire[172]. The Red Book of the Exchequer, listing scutage payments in [1196/97], records "Robertus Marmion" paying "x s, dimidium militem" in Northamptonshire[173]. Robert [V] was presumably “Rob Marmiun senioris” in the following document: King John ordered the sheriff of Sussex to grant “terram...in Berewic q fuit Mabilie de Say matris ‘uxoris’ ipsius Robti et q fuit in manu Rob Marmiun senioris” to “Robto de Mortuo Mari”, dated 3 Dec 1215[174]. The date of his death is difficult to assess, the question being complicated by his having two sons named Robert by his two marriages, the younger of whom was named “junior” in contemporary documents, being junior to his older brother not to his father.

m firstly MATILDA de Beauchamp, daughter of ---. Her parentage and family origin are confirmed by the undated charter under which her son "Robert Marmion, neveu de Guillaume de Beauchamp" made a declaration concerning a donation of property to Sainte-Marie-de-Barberie and the charter dated 1224 under which "Robert Marmion le jeune, fils de Mathilde de Beauchamp" donated property to the same abbey[175]. There is no certainty that “neveu” in this document should be interpreted in its strict sense of “nephew”, given the broad range of relationships indicated by the Latin equivalent “nepos”. The chronology of her husband’s family suggests that Matilda may have belonged to the same generation as William [II] de Beauchamp.

m secondly PHILIPPA, daughter of --- (-after 1223). Henry III King of England issued an order relating to a claim by "Philippa Marmiun" against "Robertum Marmiun seniorem filium et heredum Roberti Marmiun" relating to "tenemento in Tamewurth et in Middeltun…dotis [sue]" dated 6 Jan 1221, received by "Roberto Marmiun juniori…et ipsam matrem suam secum"[176]. No indication of her parentage has been found.

Robert [V] & his first wife had one child:

1. ROBERT Marmion [VI] (-1241). "Robert Marmion, neveu de Guillaume de Beauchamp" made a declaration concerning a donation of property to Sainte-Marie-de-Barberie by undated charter[177]. [The Red Book of the Exchequer records "Robertus Marmyun" holding one knight’s fee in "Scrivelby" in Lincolnshire in [1210/12][178]. It is uncertain whether this entry refers to Robert Marmion [VI] or to Robert [V].] Robert [VI] was disinherited during the early part of the reign of King Henry III, as shown by the fine paid by "Robert Marmion junior…for having custody of Tamworth castle and of the lands formerly of Robert his father…", subject to "his brother Robert senior [coming] to the king’s peace", dated to [1217/18][179]. Henry III King of England ordered that the lands of "Roberti Marmiun" be granted to "Robertum Marmiun filium suum primogenitum", except for agreements with "Robertum Marmiun juniorem fratrem suum", dated 25 Nov 1220[180].

"Philippus de Marmiun filius et hæres Roberti le Marmiun" recalls the donation of “Buteyate” to Bardney by “Robertus Marmiun…et Milesent uxor mea et Robertus filius meus” by charter dated Jun 1248[187]. m firstly (1247 or before) JOAN, daughter of HUGH de Kilpeck & his wife ---. The Testa de Nevill lists fees in Gloucester, dated 1247, which include "dicunt quod Hugo de Kilpe[k] tenuit manerium de Parva Teynton...habuit duas filias...heredes, quarum Philippus Marmiun desponsavit unam et Willelmus de Cantilupo habet custodiam alterius..."[188]. m secondly MARY, daughter of --- (-before 26 Sep 1313).

In the Complete Peerage, she is described as the daughter of "Royce, daughter and heiress of Robert of Dover" who granted the manor of Luddington in 1248 to her daughter and son-in-law[198]. An assize of last presentation brought by the king in 1261 against "William Marmion and Lauretta" shows that "Lauretta was the daughter of Richard FitzRoy"[199].

"Willelmus Marmion" sold property to "domine Johanne de Tureio" by charter dated Oct 1257[204].

The identity of the following person has not been ascertained. It has not been possible to deduce precise chronological information from the only source so far identified, quoted below, in which he and his wife are named. The impression is that Dugdale’s transcriptions followed a roughly chronological order, and other extracts on the same folio can be dated to the 13th century. If that dating is correct, the donation would have been too late for Christiana to have been the widow of Robert Marmion [IV] who, as shown above, is the only head of the family for whom no wife has yet been identified. There is of course no guarantee that any of the other later individuals named Robert Marmion did not have second wives whose marriages were otherwise unrecorded in primary sources. Robert could also have been a younger son (for example no information has been found relating to Robert, younger son of Robert Marmion [VII], apart from the 1238 charter which is quoted above) or a member of one of the unconnected Marmion families who are shown below. No other references to the name Christiana have been found in the Marmion family, which suggests that Christiana de Monte was not an ancestor in the direct line.

1. ROBERT Marmion . m CHRISTIANA de Monte, daughter of RANDOLPH de Monte & his wife ---. Dugdale summarises the following donation. The original charter has not been located. “Christiana filia Rondolfi de Monte que fui uxor Robti Marmiun” donated all rights in a salt deposit (“totum ius in salina”, location unspecified) which “Ricardus clericus de Monte” had held “de domo de Bordesleg” to Bordesley St Mary, Worcestershire, witnessed by “Gregorio de Crom-“[205]. Christiana’s family has not been identified, although the manor of Hillend in Worcestershire probably originated in land at Castlemorton held by “Odo de Monte or Hill” in the late 1230s[206].

The primary sources which confirm the precise relationships, if any, between the following individuals and the main Marmion family have not been identified.

1. MAURICE Marmion . "Mauricius Marmion miles" sold property to "domine Johanne de Tureio" by charter dated Apr 1245[207].

Robert & his wife had four children:

1. RALPH de Mohaut (-[1191/1194]). Bracton records a claim, dated 1222, by "Rogerus Mahaut" against "Agnetem de Gretingeham" relating to "advocacionem ecclesie de Gretingeham" of which "Radulfus de Mohaut antecessor suus fuit seisitus tempore Henrici Regis senis", from whom it descended to “Roberto filio suo”, from him to “Radulfo filio suo”, and from him to “eidem Rogero...filio et heredi suo”[234]. “Radulfo dapifero...” witnessed the charter dated to [1164/73] under which “Hugo comes Cestrie” notified that William Venables had made a fine to hold [serfs] Dilred Hog and Artusius of the earl[235]. “Radulfus de Montealto dapifer comitis Cestrie” donated “ecclesiam de Neston” to Chester St. Werburgh, for the souls of “Roberti patris mei et Leuche matris mei”, with the consent and advice of “Leuche matris mee in cuius dote ipsa ecclesia...et W[illelmi] de Montealto fratris mei”, by charter dated to [1177/82][236]. “...Radulfo seneschallo de Monte Alto...” witnessed the charter dated to [3 Feb 1188/15 Nov 1189] under which “Ranulfus dux Britannie comes Cestrie et Richmondie” confirmed his predecessors’ donations to Bordesley abbey[237]. “...Radulfo de Monte Alto senescallo Cestrie...” witnessed the charter dated to [1191/94] under which “Rannulfus comes Cestrie” confirmed the donation of half a salt-house to St. Werburgh[238]. m MATILDA, daughter of ---. Farrer states that Matilda was Ralph’s wife[239]. Ralph & his wife had one child:

a) [--- . His parentage is indicated by a plea dated 13 Jun 1227 which records that “Roger de Montealto” claimed Elford church against Philip de Oreby, who stated that “Ralph de Monhaut” gave the manor to “Roger de Monhaut his brother...[in Elleford and in Cassingland]”, after whose death it passed to “Leuca his daughter” and from her to “Agnes daughter of Leuca who is in the ward of the said Philip by gift of Roger de Monhaut the capital lord”, while the plaintiff claimed that “Ralph his ancestor had made the last presentation”[240]. As Ralph is described in this plea as “ancestor” of Roger, not his father, it is likely that there was an intervening generation between the two, although the chronology would be tight. It should be noted that this generation is not included in Bracton’s record of the claim dated 1222 which is summarised below. One possibility is that this son predeceased his father, leaving an infant son who was still too young to succeed as “dapifer” on the death of Ralph, the office passing to Ralph’s brother Robert, and that Bracton ignored this step in the descent. m ---. One child:]

i) ROGER de Mohaut (-1232).

i) AGNES --- ([after 1212]-). A plea dated 13 Jun 1227 records that “Roger de Montealto” claimed Elford church against Philip de Oreby, who stated that “Ralph de Monhaut” gave the manor to “Roger de Monhaut his brother...[in Elleford and in Cassingland]”, after whose death it passed to “Leuca his daughter” and from her to “Agnes daughter of Leuca who is in the ward of the said Philip by gift of Roger de Monhaut the capital lord”[255].

ROGER de Mohaut, son of ROGER de Mohaut & his wife --- (-Castle Rising 28 Jun 1260). A charter dated to [1258] records that “dominus Rogerus de Montealto cuius predecessores ius patronatus in ipsa ecclesia olim optinebant” forcibly entered “ecclesiam de Nestona” after the death of “Ricardi clerici” and presented “Radulphum de Montealto clericum” to the diocesis for institution in the church[256]. The episode is recorded in the Annales Cestrienses in 1258, adding that Roger died “infra eundem annum miserabiliter”[257]. A charter dated to [1258] records the settlement of the dispute, under which “dominus Rogerus de Montealto” donated “terre in Nestona...[et] in advocacione ecclesie de Nestona” to Chester St. Werburgh, in return for “manerium de Brocton” and revenue for “Radulpho de Montealto”[258]. He inherited the manor of Kenninghall, Castle of Rising, Norfolk, on the death of his brother-in-law. The Annales Cestrienses record the death “circa nativitatem beate Johannis” 1260 of “Roger de Monte Alto apud Rysinges”[259].

m CECILY de Albini, daughter of WILLIAM de Albini Earl of Arundel & his wife Mabel of Chester. The Annales Londonienses name "Mabiliam, Nicholaam, Ceciliam et Isabellam" as the four daughters of "secunda…Mabillia…uxor comitis de Arundelle", specifying that "Cecilia" married "Rogero de Monte Alto"[260].

Roger & his wife had children:

1. ROBERT de Mohaut (-before 16 Sep 1275). The Annales Cestrienses record that “Robertus de Monte Alto” was delivered from captivity after an agreement between King Henry III and “Lewelinum principem Wallie” in 1267[261]. m ([1261]) JOAN Mowbray, daughter of ROGER de Mowbray Lord Mowbray & his wife Matilda de Beauchamp. Robert & his wife had children:

a) ROGER de Mohaut [1261/62]-2 Dec 1296). He was summoned to Parliament in 1295 whereby he is held to have become Lord Mohaut. m JULIANE de Clifford, daughter of ROGER de Clifford & his wife ---.

b) ROBERT de Mohaut of Mold (25 Mar 1274-26 Dec 1329). He was summoned to Parliament in 1299 whereby he is held to have become Lord Mohaut. m (royal licence 25 Jan 1301) as her second husband, EMMA, widow of RICHARD FitzJohn of Shere, daughter of --- (-26 Jan 1332, bur Stradsett, Norfolk).

2. [RALPH de Mohaut . A charter dated to [1258] records that “dominus Rogerus de Montealto cuius predecessores ius patronatus in ipsa ecclesia olim optinebant” forcibly entered “ecclesiam de Nestona” after the death of “Ricardi clerici” and presented “Radulphum de Montealto clericum” to the diocesis for institution in the church[262]. The parentage of “Radulphum de Montealto clericum” is not specified in the document, but it is reasonable to suppose that he was closely related to Roger, maybe his son. A charter dated to [1258] records the settlement of the dispute, under which “dominus Rogerus de Montealto” donated “terre in Nestona...[et] in advocacione ecclesie de Nestona” to Chester St. Werburgh, in return for “manerium de Brocton” and revenue for “Radulpho de Montealto”[263].]

1. JOHN de Mohaut (-after Oct 1265). m (before Nov 1254) as her first husband, MILLICENT de Cauntelo, daughter of WILLIAM [IV] de Cauntelo of Calne, Wiltshire & his wife Eva de Briouse (-before 7 Jan 1299). She married secondly (before 13 Dec 1273) Eon la Zouche. The Chronicle of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire names "Georgius" who died childless and "Johanna nupta Henrico de Hastings et Milisannt de Monte-alto…uxor Ivonis de la Zouch" as the children of "Willielmo de Cantilupo" and his wife[264]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 4 Nov "1 Edw I" after the death of "George de Cantilupo" name “Milisanda the wife of Eudo la Zuche of full age and John son of Henry and Joan de Hastinges who is under age an in the king’s wardship are his next heirs...the said Milisanda and Joan being sisters of the said George”[265].

MOHUN

According to Maxwell Lyte, this family took its name from "Moyon near St Lo in Normandy"[266]: Richard III Duke of Normandy granted property including "…curtem…Moion…" to his wife Adela as her future dower by charter dated Jan 1027[267].

Several important details in this revised Mohun reconstruction depend on “St. George’s extracts from the Mohun Chronicle”. In his Preface, Maxwell Lyte clarifies that these extracts were made by Richard St. George, Norroy King of Arms, in 1610 “when the cartulary belonged to Sir Reynold Mohun of Boconnoc”, but that (with a single exception) they “came from leaves which are now unfortunately missing”[268]. Elsewhere, Maxwell Lyte casts doubt on the reliability of the original “book or treatise” [presumably the cartulary], which was “composed in 1350…in a Latin of a sort” by John Osberne, Constable of Dunster Castle, but which “appears to have been merely a supplement of a larger work in French dedicated to his mistress [Lady Joan Mohun, wife of John [V] Lord Mohun] by Walter de la Houe, Abbot of Newenham”[269]. Some points in the St. George extracts have been corroborated by other sources (in particular the Mandeville origin of Hawise, first wife of Reynold [II] de Mohun), which suggests that Osberne may have been more reliable than Maxwell Lyte suggests.

A. ORIGINS

Two brothers, parents not known.

1. WILLIAM [I] de Mohun (-after 1090). Leland quotes "Un Role de ceux queux veignont in Angleterre ovesque roy Wm le Conquereur" (without indicating its date) which names "monseir Willim de Moion"[270]. Domesday Book records “William de Moyon” holding Sutton Veny in Wiltshire, Todber, Spetisbury and Winterborne Houghton in Dorset, and numerous holdings in Somerset[271]. He built the castle of Dunster. "William de Moione" donated the church of St George of Dunestore to the church of St Peter of Bath, by consent of "my wife Adelisa", by undated charter, dated to [1090/1100], witnessed by "…Geoffrey and Robert my sons and Wilmund my brother…"[272]. m ADELISE, daughter of --- (-after 1090). "William de Moione" donated the church of St George of Dunestore to the church of St Peter of Bath, by consent of "my wife Adelisa", by undated charter, dated to [1090/1100], witnessed by "…Geoffrey and Robert my sons and Wilmund my brother…"[273]. William [I] & his wife had four children:

a) GEOFFREY de Mohun (-after 1090). "William de Moione" donated the church of St George of Dunestore to the church of St Peter of Bath, by consent of "my wife Adelisa", by undated charter, dated to [1090/1100], witnessed by "…Geoffrey and Robert my sons and Wilmund my brother…"[274].

b) ROBERT de Mohun (-after 1090). "William de Moione" donated the church of St George of Dunestore to the church of St Peter of Bath, by consent of "my wife Adelisa", by undated charter, dated to [1090/1100], witnessed by "…Geoffrey and Robert my sons and Wilmund my brother…"[275].

c) WILLIAM [II] de Mohun (-after [1150]). A charter of King Henry I confirmed the foundation and possessions of Bridlington priory, including the donation of "ecclesiam de Wicheforda" made by "Willielmus de Moion et uxor eius Agnes"[276]. The 1130 Pipe Roll records "Willo de Moiont" in Warwickshire[277]. Henry of Huntingdon names "William de Mohun" among the "traitors" who supported Empress Matilda in 1138, adding that he held "the castle at Dunster" against the king[278]. The Gesta Stephani Regis names "Willelmus de Mohun quem comitem ibi statuit Dorsetiæ" among the supporters of Empress Matilda in the English civil war[279]. He was created Earl [of Somerset/Dorset] by Empress Matilda in [Apr/Jun] 1141: "…com W[illelmo] de Moion…" subscribed the charter dated to midsummer 1141 under which Empress Matilda granted property to Geoffrey de Mandeville[280]. "Willielmus de Moyne comes Somersetensis" founded Bruton priory in Somerset by undated (but dated to 1142 by Maxwell Lyte[281]) charter witnessed by "Willielmo filio meo, Henrico, Juwanno, Petro, et Ricardo clericis…"[282]. "Willelmus de Mohun" confirmed a grant to "Willelmo filio Durandi" by charter dated to [1150], witnessed by "Eudone fratre meo…"[283]. No primary source has been found which confirms his date of death. The Complete Peerage suggests that “he may have died soon after 1142 or he may simply have withdrawn from the civil war”, adding that King Henry II’s failure to confirm his earldom suggests that he had “ceased to give active support to the Empress”[284]. m AGNES, daughter of ---. A charter of King Henry I confirmed the foundation and possessions of Bridlington priory, including the donation of "ecclesiam de Wicheforda" made by "Willielmus de Moion et uxor eius Agnes"[285]. The parentage of Agnes is not known. Maxwell Lyte suggests "with some confidence" that she was Agnes de Gand, daughter of Walter de Gant & his wife Mathilde de Penthièvre[286]. He bases this on the possession by Gilbert de Gand of Whichford, Warwickshire (then in Northamptonshire) in 1086, Gilbert’s son Walter’s foundation of the priory at Bridlington, and the donation by William de Mohun and Agnes his wife of the church of Whichford to Bridlington. William [II] & his wife had six children:

i) RALPH de Mohun (-before [1142]). William de Mohun donated land at Avelham to the church of Dunster, for the benefit of the soul of Ralph his son, by undated charter[287]. He was not mentioned in his father’s foundation charter for Bruton, and so presumably died before 1142 if the document is correctly dated to that year.

ii) WILLIAM [III] de Mohun (-1176). "Willielmus de Moyne comes Somersetensis" founded Bruton priory in Somerset by undated (but dated to 1142 by Maxwell Lyte[288]) charter witnessed by "Willielmo filio meo, Henrico, Juwanno, Petro, et Ricardo clericis…"[289].

- see below.

iii) HENRY de Mohun (-after 1166). "Willielmus de Moyne comes Somersetensis" founded Bruton priory in Somerset by undated (but dated to 1142 by Maxwell Lyte[290]) charter witnessed by "Willielmo filio meo, Henrico, Juwanno, Petro, et Ricardo clericis…"[291]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Henricus de Moiun i m" in Warwickshire, Leicestershire in [1161/62][292]. Military fee certifications in the Red Book of the Exchequer, in 1166, record that "Henricus de Mohun" held one knight’s fee from "Gervasii Paganelli" in Staffordshire[293].

iv) IWAN de Mohun . "Willielmus de Moyne comes Somersetensis" founded Bruton priory in Somerset by undated (but dated to 1142 by Maxwell Lyte[294]) charter witnessed by "Willielmo filio meo, Henrico, Juwanno, Petro, et Ricardo clericis…"[295]. "William de Moyun juvenis" confirmed his father’s donations to Bruton, for the souls of "William his father, Agnes his mother", by undated charter, witnessed by "…Juvano filio comitis"[296].

v) PETER de Mohun . "Willielmus de Moyne comes Somersetensis" founded Bruton priory in Somerset by undated (but dated to 1142 by Maxwell Lyte[297]) charter witnessed by "Willielmo filio meo, Henrico, Juwanno, Petro, et Ricardo clericis…"[298].

vi) RICHARD de Mohun (-after 1176). "Willielmus de Moyne comes Somersetensis" founded Bruton priory in Somerset by undated (but dated to 1142 by Maxwell Lyte[299]) charter witnessed by "Willielmo filio meo, Henrico, Juwanno, Petro, et Ricardo clericis…"[300]. “William de Moyon” confirmed the donation of the church of Lyon to Troarn abbey by "William de Moyon his father" by undated charter, witnessed by "…Ricardo de Moyon…"[301]. A charter dated to [1170] records that “Richard de Moyon” had resigned property of the church of Lyon to the bishop of Bayeux[302]. "William de Moyun the younger" confirmed donations to Bruton by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia uxore mea, Willelmo filio meo et herede, Ricardo de Moyun, Roberto filio Ricardi, Henrico Corbet, Willelmo fratre eius…"[303].

d) EUDES de Mohun (-after [1150]). "Willelmus de Mohun" confirmed a grant to "Willelmo filio Durandi" by charter dated to [1150], witnessed by "Eudone fratre meo…"[304].

2. WILMUND (-after 1090). "William de Moione" donated the church of St George of Dunestore to the church of St Peter of Bath, by consent of "my wife Adelisa", by undated charter, dated to [1090/1100], witnessed by "…Geoffrey and Robert my sons and Wilmund my brother…"[305].

WILLIAM [III] de Mohun, son of WILLIAM [II] de Mohun & his wife Agnes --- (-1176). "Willielmus de Moyne comes Somersetensis" founded Bruton priory in Somerset by undated (but dated to 1142 by Maxwell Lyte[306]) charter witnessed by "Willielmo filio meo, Henrico, Juwanno, Petro, et Ricardo clericis…"[307]. "William de Moyun juvenis" confirmed his father’s donations to Bruton, for the souls of "William his father, Agnes his mother", by undated charter, witnessed by "…Juvano filio comitis"[308]. “William de Moyon” donated tithes to Troarn abbey by charter dated to [1160], witnessed by "God[eholda] uxore mea et Willelmo filio meo…"[309]. “William de Moyon” confirmed the donation of the church of Lyon to Troarn abbey by "William de Moyon his father" by undated charter, witnessed by "…Ricardo de Moyon…"[310]. Military fee certifications in the Red Book of the Exchequer, in 1166, record the knights’ fees held from "Willelmi de Moiun" in Somerset[311]. The Red Book of the Exchequer refers to "Willelmus de Moyn xli m, de nov ii m" in Dorset, Somerset in [1167/68][312]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records enfeoffments in the duchy of Normandy in [1172], "Willelmus de Moiun" with 5 knights and eleven knights in his own service[313]. “Willelmus de Moun” is recorded in Pipe Rolls dated 1162, 1168, 1169, 1170, and 1176, the last recording “ab episcopo Wintoniensi qui custodit honorem et heredum” (similar returns by the bishop in 1177 and 1178)[314], suggesting William’s death in 1176.

m GODEHOLDE, daughter of --- (-before 1186). “William de Moyon” donated tithes to Troarn abbey by charter dated to [1160], witnessed by "God[eholda] uxore mea et Willelmo filio meo…"[315]. "William de Moion" granted tithes of his mills of Moion, Tesseium and Belcodreium to the Holy Trinity of Luzerne, for the soul of "his mother Godeheut", by charter dated 1186, witnessed by "…Willelmo de Sancto Johanne, Gaufrido et Johanne et Roberto de Moion…"[316].

William [III] & his wife had seven children:

1. WILLIAM [IV] de Mohun (-Oct 1193). “William de Moyon” donated tithes to Troarn abbey by charter dated to [1160], witnessed by "God[eholda] uxore mea et Willelmo filio meo…"[317]. The Pipe Roll entries cited above under his father suggest that William [IV] was still a minor 1176-1178. "William de Moyun the younger" confirmed donations to Bruton made by "his grandfather Earl William, his father William" by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia uxore mea…"[318]. "William de Moyun the younger" confirmed donations to Bruton by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia uxore mea, Willelmo filio meo et herede, Ricardo de Moyun, Roberto filio Ricardi, Henrico Corbet, Willelmo fratre eius…"[319]. "William de Moyun" confirmed the right of free election of their priors to Bruton by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia uxore mea, Willelmus filius meus et heres, Galfridus de Moyun frater meus, Robertus filius Ricardi senescallus meus…"[320]. “William de Moyon” donated the churches of Moyon and Taissy to the canons of Briweton to hold "after the decease of his brother Thomas" by charter dated to [1177/94][321]. "William de Moion" granted tithes of his mills of Moion, Tesseium and Belcodreium to the Holy Trinity of Luzerne, for the soul of "his mother Godeheut", by charter dated 1186, witnessed by "…Willelmo de Sancto Johanne, Gaufrido et Johanne et Roberto de Moion…"[322]. Maxwell Lyte says that “The date of his death may be placed in October 1193, but several months elapsed before William de Ste. Mere Eglise took possession of the Honour of Dunster in the King’s name, the heir being a minor”[323]. Stapleton says that William [IV]’s “obit occurs in the month of October in the Necrology of the abbey of La Luzerne” (no source citation)[324]: the necrology of La Luzerne (Normandy) has not been seen. m LUCY, daughter of --- (-after 1203). "William de Moyun the younger" confirmed donations to Bruton made by "his grandfather Earl William, his father William" by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia uxore mea…"[325]. "William de Moyun the younger" confirmed donations to Bruton by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia uxore mea, Willelmo filio meo et herede, Ricardo de Moyun, Roberto filio Ricardi, Henrico Corbet, Willelmo fratre eius…"[326]. "William de Moyun" confirmed the right of free election of their priors to Bruton by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia uxore mea, Willelmus filius meus et heres, Galfridus de Moyun frater meus, Robertus filius Ricardi senescallus meus…"[327]. "Reginald de Moyun" donated the church of Liun in Normandy and land at Bruwham to Bruton by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia matre mea…"[328]. "Will de Traceio…Lucia de Moon" both paid rent on part of "terre de Moon", dated 1198[329]. "Lucea de Moyun" paid a fine for "feud vii mil" in Cambridgeshire, dated 1201[330]. "Lucia de Moon […terre de Moon]…Will de Traceio…versus Oliv de Traceio" all paid rent in "Ballia Constancien" in Normandy, dated 1203[331]. William [IV] & his wife had two children:

a) WILLIAM [V] de Mohun (-[before 1193]). "William de Moyun the younger" confirmed donations to Bruton by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia uxore mea, Willelmo filio meo et herede, Ricardo de Moyun, Roberto filio Ricardi, Henrico Corbet, Willelmo fratre eius…"[332]. "William de Moyun" confirmed the right of free election of their priors to Bruton by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia uxore mea, Willelmus filius meus et heres, Galfridus de Moyun frater meus, Robertus filius Ricardi senescallus meus…"[333].

b) REYNOLD [I] de Mohun of Dunster, Somerset (-1213, before 11 Jun). "Reginald de Moyun" donated the church of Liun in Normandy and land at Bruwham to Bruton by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia matre mea…"[334]. The 1203 payment made by his mother in 1203 (see above) shows that Reynold [I] was still a minor at the time. Stapleton says that “The Honour of Moyon, which had been relinquished by Richard de Humez in 1184, had, it seems, continued to be fermed as an escheat down to the present time by reason of the minority of Reginald de Moyon, the heir, who was not of age till 4 John 1203”[335]. The 1205 and 1206 Pipe Rolls record “Reginaldus de Moiun de xii feodis de honore de Dunstorre”[336]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records "Reginaldus de Moun" holding one knight’s fee in Warwickshire in [1210/12][337]. The Testa de Nevill includes a writ of King John dated 1212 which records that "Reginaldus de Moiun" held "Dunestorre…in capite domino rege per servicium xl militum et dimidii de conquestu Anglie…in hundredo de Karenton" in Somerset[338]. Maxwell Lyte records that Reynold "died in 1213, when he was barely thirty years of age" (no source cited)[339], the date being confirmed by the Jun 1213 order cited below under his son Reynold [II]. m as her first husband, ALICE Briwere, daughter of WILLIAM Briwere & his wife Beatrice --- (-after 24 Jul 1236). A manuscript at Newenham records that “Alicia de Mohun, quarta filia Willelmi Bruer” married “domino Reginaldo de Mohun, domino de Dunsterre”[340]. Maxwell Lyte records that "Through her the Mohuns inherited the manors of Torre, Ugborough, Cadleigh, Bradworthy and Axminster, in Devon, and Ile Brewer, in Somerset, and various knights’ fees elsewhere" (no sources cited)[341]. King John granted custody of “terre et heredum Regin de Moyun” to “Henri fil Com”, except the marriage and dower of “Aelic q fuit ux ejusdem Regin”, dated 11 Jun 1213[342]. Bracton records a claim, dated 1233, by "Hugo Wack" against "Margeriam de Feritate et Willelmum de Percy" relating to an agreement "cum Alicia de Moun et predicto Hugone" concerning share of land which was held by "Willelmi Briwere"[343]. She married secondly William Paynell of Bampton, Devon. Her parentage and second marriage are confirmed by a writ dated 2 Jan "33 Hen III", after the death of her son "William Paynel alias Painel" which names the manor of "…Huffeculm…with 10 l land which Fulk Painel gave to William Briwer the elder…but afterwards William Brewer the younger…bestowed the said land upon William Painel, father of this one, in free marriage with Alice his sister" in Devon[344]. "William Paynel" assigned "Alice de Mohun his wife and Hugh de Samford" to make part payments of debts "in each of the three years after starting out on his pilgrimage to the Holy Land" with the manor of Bampton as security, dated 27 Sep, although listed in the roll among other fines dated [Feb/Mar] 1228[345]. Henry III King of England ordered the sheriff of Devon to release "dotem suam...Willelmum filium et heredi predicti Willelmi" to "Alicia de Moyun que fuit uxor Willelmi Paynel", and confirmed the custody granted to “Hereberto filio Mathei”, dated 1228[346]. The king granted custody of "the land and heir of William Paynel to Herbert son of Matthew", saving to "Alice who was William’s wife…her…dower", dated 18 Nov 1228[347]. The Testa de Nevill includes a list of fees of William Briwere, dated 1234, records "porcio Alicie de Moyun"[348]. King Henry III commanded "Alicia de Moyun” not to dispose of “the ward of the land which William Cumin held of her as the heritage of Margery his wife” because of the disputed succession, dated 24 Jul 1236[349]. King Henry III, seeing that "Alicia de Moyun has deceived him by the suggestion that there was another lawful heir to the manor of Sturton than Margery daughter of William Cumin”, ordered the sheriff of Warwick “to give Alicia seizin as custodian to cause John de Cantilupe and the said Margery his wife to have such seizin”, dated 24 Jul 1236[350]. Reynold & his wife had three children:

i) REYNOLD [II] de Mohun ([1200/05?]-Tor Mohun, Devon 20 Jan 1258, bur Newenham). A manuscript at Newenham records that “Alicia de Mohun, quarta filia Willelmi Bruer” married “domino Reginaldo de Mohun, domino de Dunsterre” by whom she had “Reginaldum de Mohun, heredum ipsorum Reginaldi et Alicie”[351]. King John granted custody of “terre et heredum Regin de Moyun” to “Henri fil Com”, except the marriage and dower of “Aelic q fuit ux ejusdem Regin”, dated 11 Jun 1213[352].

- see below.

ii) WILLIAM de Mohun ([1203/10?]-Norton, Cornwall, 1265, bur Newenham). “Reginaldus de Mohun” donated “terra de Stortmanforde” to Clive abbey, for the soul of “piæ memoriæ Havisiæ de Mohun”, with the consent of “Willielmi de Mohun fratris mei”, by undated charter[353]. “Reginaldus de Moun” founded Newenham abbey, Devonshire, for the souls of “Willelmi Briwer senioris et Willelmi Briwer junioris et uxorum suarum...Hawisiæ de Moun et Isabellæ Basset uxorum mearum et Willielmi de Moun fratris mei”, by undated charter[354]. A manuscript records the death “III Kal Feb” 1257 of “dominus Reginaldus de Mohun fundator” and in 1265 of “Willelmus de Moun fundator huius monasterii et frater germanus supradicti Reginaldi, qui apud Nortun in Cornubia in manerio huius domus moriebatur”[355]. A manuscript records the burial at Newenham of “Willielmus de Moun, frater Reginaldi et alter fundator dictæ abbathiæ”[356]. m JULIANA de Vernon, daughter of ---. Maxwell Lyte records that William married "Juliana de Vernon"[357]. Maxwell Lyte says that "Roger de Tony granted to William de Mohun, in frank marriage with Juliana his ‘kinswoman’, presumably his granddaughter [incorrect?], an annuity…out of the manor of South Tawton in Devonshire" (no source citation)[358]. Juliana’s parentage in the Vernon family has not been ascertained nor her precise family relationship with “Roger de Tony” (identified as Roger [V] de Tosny or Roger son of Baldwin de Tosny? – see the document ENGLISH LORDS T-Z.).

- MOHUN of SOUTH TAWTON[359].

iii) BALDWIN de Mohun (-after 1267). Maxwell Lyte records his parentage (no source cited), noting that he was "rector of Brinkley, in Cambridgeshire in 1261 [and] five years later…was presented by the Abbot of Newenham to the living of Luppit, in Devon, which he vacated in 1267"[360].

2. GEOFFREY de Mohun (-[1200/01]). "William de Moion" granted tithes of his mills of Moion, Tesseium and Belcodreium to the Holy Trinity of Luzerne, for the soul of "his mother Godeheut", by charter dated 1186, witnessed by "…Willelmo de Sancto Johanne, Gaufrido et Johanne et Roberto de Moion…"[361]. "William de Moyun" confirmed the right of free election of their priors to Bruton by undated charter, witnessed by "Lucia uxore mea, Willelmus filius meus et heres, Galfridus de Moyun frater meus, Robertus filius Ricardi senescallus meus…"[362]. He died before 1201 when his brother John is recorded holding Ham “que fuit Galfridi de Moiun” (see below).

3. JOHN de Mohun (-before 3 Feb 1222). "William de Moion" granted tithes of his mills of Moion, Tesseium and Belcodreium to the Holy Trinity of Luzerne, for the soul of "his mother Godeheut", by charter dated 1186, witnessed by "…Willelmo de Sancto Johanne, Gaufrido et Johanne et Roberto de Moion…"[363]. The 1201 Pipe Roll records “Johannes de Moyun” is recorded in Cambridge and Huntingdon returning for “terra sua de Brinkeleia quam Wilhelmus frater suus ei dedit” and in Dorset/Somerset for “terra de Ham que fuit Galfridi de Moiun”[364]. An order dated 3 Feb 1222 records “Willelmus filius et heres Johannis de Moun” making a fine for “terra que fuit ipsius Johannis patris sui”, qui de domino rege tenuit in capite”[365]. Maxwell Lyte records John as "ancestor of the Mohuns of Ham" (later known as Ham Mohun, later still Hammoon, in Dorset)[366].

- MOHUN of HAM[367].

4. THOMAS de Mohun . “William de Moyon” donated the churches of Moyon and Taissy to the canons of Briweton to hold "after the decease of his brother Thomas" by charter dated to [1177/94][368].

5. ROBERT de Mohun . "William de Moion" granted tithes of his mills of Moion, Tesseium and Belcodreium to the Holy Trinity of Luzerne, for the soul of "his mother Godeheut", by charter dated 1186, witnessed by "…Willelmo de Sancto Johanne, Gaufrido et Johanne et Roberto de Moion…"[369].

6. AGNES de Mohun . Maxwell Lyte records her parentage and marriage, noting that "She had for her portion an estate at and near Bicknoller, which her descendants held of the Honour of Dunster by military service"[370]. m WILLIAM de Windsor, son of ---. He has not yet been identified in the Windsor family (see the document UNTITLED ENGLISH NOBILITY T-Z).

7. YOLANDE de Mohun . Maxwell Lyte notes that "Yolenta daughter of William de Mohun the Third" married "Ralph son of William son of Durand de Mohun, who may have been a distant cousin", who was the principal military tenant of the honour of Dunster and gave his name to Brompton Ralph[371]. “Willelmus de Moun” granted rights to “Radulfus filius Willelmi…in liberum maritagium cum Yolenta sorore mea”, undated but presumably after the grantor had reached the age of majority[372]. "Ralph son of William de Bruneton" donated land in "Sudhei in his manor of Brunne" to Bruton, with the consent of "Yolenta his wife", by undated charter[373]. m (1178 or after) RALPH, son of WILLIAM de Bruneton & his wife --- (-1197 or after). The 1194, 1195, 1196, and 1197 Pipe Rolls record “Radulfus filius Wilhelmi” returning for “terra sua absque militibus”[374].

The precise family connection of the following person with the main Mohun family has not been ascertained. (In addition to William, Maxwell Lyte lists numerous references to other unconnected Mohuns[375], which have not been checked.)

1. WILLIAM de Mohun (-after 1210). The Red Book of the Exchequer, listing scutage payments in [1196/97], records "Willelmus de Moyun" paying "xli l…xli milites" in Dorset, Somerset[376]. The Red Book of the Exchequer records "Willelmus de Moyun" holding three knights’ fees from "honor d’Eu" in Sussex in [1210/12][377].

REYNOLD [II] de Mohun, son of REYNOLD [I] de Mohun of Dunster, Somerset & his wife Alice Briwere ([1200/05?]-Tor Mohun, Devon 20 Jan 1258, bur Newenham). A manuscript at Newenham records that “Alicia de Mohun, quarta filia Willelmi Bruer” married “domino Reginaldo de Mohun, domino de Dunsterre” by whom she had “Reginaldum de Mohun, heredum ipsorum Reginaldi et Alicie”[378]. King John granted custody of “terre et heredum Regin de Moyun” to “Henri fil Com”, except the marriage and dower of “Aelic q fuit ux ejusdem Regin”, dated 11 Jun 1213[379]. An order dated 1227 recorded that “Reginaldus de Moun habet litteras deprecatorias, directas militibus…”[380], suggesting that he had reached the age of majority by that time and so maybe was born [1200/05]. Maxwell Lyte records documents dated 1230, 1233, 1234, 1242, Sep 1243, Jul 1246, 1252, 1253, 13 Sep 1254, and 1255 which name Reynold[381]. “Reginaldus de Mohun” donated “terra de Stortmanforde” to Clive abbey, for the soul of “piæ memoriæ Havisiæ de Mohun”, with the consent of “Willielmi de Mohun fratris mei”, by undated charter[382]. “Reginaldus de Moun” founded Newenham abbey, Devonshire, for the souls of “Willelmi Briwer senioris et Willelmi Briwer junioris et uxorum suarum...Hawisiæ de Moun et Isabellæ Basset uxorum mearum et Willielmi de Moun fratris mei”, by undated charter[383]. A manuscript records the death “III Kal Feb” 1257 of “dominus Reginaldus de Mohun fundator”[384]. A manuscript records the burial at Newenham of “Reginaldus de Moun principalis fundator”[385].

m firstly (after 29 Mar 1227) HAWISE de Mandeville, daughter of GEOFFREY FitzPiers Earl of Essex & his second wife Aveline de Clare (-[before 1242?]). A manuscript at Newenham records that “Reginaldum de Mohun, heredum ipsorum Reginaldi et Alicie” had two wives “Hawysiam de Mohun et Isabellam Basset”[386]. Hawise’s origin has been the subject of controversy over the years. Four possibilities have been proposed. Firstly, Maxwell Lyte records that “As far back as the year 1350, John Osberne, the untrustworthy chronicler of the Mohun family [see the Introduction to the present chapter for his further comments about Osberne], described her as a sister of William de Mandeville, Earl of Essex”. Maxwell Lyte suggests that Osberne’s conclusion was based on a misunderstanding of the significance of the earl’s grant of “the manors of Streatley, in Berkshire” to Reynold [II], indicating that it was in reality made because “the Earls of Essex were merely the overlords of Streatley”[387]. Despite Maxwell Lyte’s reservation, Osberne seems to have been correct as will be seen below. Secondly, Dugdale records Hawise as “sister of Humphrey de Bohun Earl of Hereford and Essex” and notes that her husband had with her “the Mannour of Strettele”[388]. Maxwell Lyte adds that Dugdale “professes to get his information from the very book which calls Humphrey her cousin” (presumably referring to the manuscript source cited in the previous end-note, reference not checked)[389]. Nevertheless, a close relationship with the Bohun family is indicated because Hawise’s half-sister Matilda married Henry de Bohun Earl of Hereford, and was therefore the mother of Humphrey [V] de Bohun (see the document ENGLAND EARLS - Created 1067-1122). Thirdly, Maxwell Lyte says that “Others have chosen to describe [Hawise as] a daughter of John Fitz Geoffrey”[390]: Hawise de Mandeville was the sister of John FitzGeoffrey of Shere, Surrey. Fourthly, after summarising these three other suggestions, Maxwell Lyte proposes a connection with the Fleming family. He notes (1) that “two quarterly shields of the later Mohuns give the arms of Fleming immediately after those of Briwere, thus suggesting that a Mohun married a Fleming heiress in the thirteenth century”; (2) that “William son of William Fleming conveyed to Reynold de Mohun the manors of Ottery and Stoke”, confirmed by “Geoffrey de Mandeville, the overlord”; (3) that “in 1283, one of the buildings at Dunster Castle was known as the ‘Fleming Tower’, doubtless that which was afterwards called ‘Dame Hawis’s Tower’”; and concludes (4) that “we may fairly hold that…Hawis [was] daughter and heiress of William Fleming”[391]. Maxwell Lyte revised his opinion later: the Complete Peerage notes that “after examination of documents cited in the account of Streatley given in V.C.H., Berkshire, he now inclines to credit the older view [i.e. Hawise’s Mandeville origin]”[392]. Hawise’s Mandeville parentage is confirmed by the following document: King Henry III granted “seisina de manerio de Stradlegh…terras que fuerunt predicti Comitis…occone mortis sue…in man nostram” to “Hawis sorori W, Com. de Mandevill”, dated 29 Mar 1227[393]. Presumably the grant occurred before Hawise’s marriage and, although her future husband is not named in this entry, the connection with Streatley, noted above, indicates that he must have been Reynold [II] de Mohun. If this is correct, the chronology indicates that Hawise must have been born from her father’s second marriage. “Reginaldus de Moun” founded Newenham abbey, Devonshire, for the souls of “Willelmi Briwer senioris et Willelmi Briwer junioris et uxorum suarum...Hawisiæ de Moun et Isabellæ Basset uxorum mearum et Willielmi de Moun fratris mei”, by undated charter[394]. “Reginaldus de Mohun” donated “terra de Stortmanforde” to Clive abbey, for the soul of “piæ memoriæ Havisiæ de Mohun”, with the consent of “Willielmi de Mohun fratris mei”, by undated charter[395]. No source has been found which confirms when Hawise died.

m secondly ([end-1242/1243?]) as her second husband, ISABEL de Ferrers, widow of GILBERT Basset [II] of Wycombe, daughter of WILLIAM de Ferrers Earl of Derby & his first wife Sibyl Marshall of the Earls of Pembroke (-before 26 Nov 1260). A manuscript at Newenham records that “Reginaldum de Mohun, heredum ipsorum Reginaldi et Alicie” had two wives “Hawysiam de Mohun et Isabellam Basset”[396]. The Chronicle of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire names "…secunda Isabella…" as the daughters of "Willielmo de Ferrers comiti Derbiæ" and his wife "quarta filia…Willihelmi Marescalli…Sibilla", adding that Isabel married "Reginaldo de Monteminori", by whom she was mother of "Willihelmus de Monte" who died childless, "filiam…Alianore" who married "Johanni filio Nicholai de Carrew", "Margareta soror eius" who died childless, and "Maria soror eius" who married "Johanni Meriot" but died childless[397]: Isabel was thus co-heir to the extensive estates of William Marshall Earl of Pembroke. The Annals of Ireland record that “Sibilla comitissa de Ferreys” had seven daughters (in order) “secunda, Isabella Basset…”[398]. By notice dated 18 Jun 1240, “G. Marshal, earl of Pembroke” surrendered “the castle of Pevenese and all the land late of G. de Aquila” to the king, except “the town of Greywell given…as a marriage portion to Gilbert Basset with Isabel, daughter of William de Ferrariis, the earl’s niece…”[399]. A charter dated 28 Jun 1248 records that "Margaret late Countess of Lincoln…recovered her dower out of the lands in Ireland of W[alter] Marshall late Earl of Pembroke her husband" and that the dower was "taken out of the portions of the inheritance which accrued to William de Vescy and Agnes his wife, Reginald de Moun and Isabel his wife, Matilda de Kyme, Francis de Boun and Sibil his wife, William de Vallibus and Alienor his wife, John de Moun and Joan his wife, Agatha de Ferrers in the king’s custody, and Roger de Mortimer and Matilda his wife"[400]. “Reginaldus de Moun” founded Newenham abbey, Devonshire, for the souls of “Willelmi Briwer senioris et Willelmi Briwer junioris et uxorum suarum...Hawisiæ de Moun et Isabellæ Basset uxorum mearum et Willielmi de Moun fratris mei”, by undated charter[401]. A charter dated 26 May 1250 records the restoration of property, granted to "Margaret Countess of Lincoln", to "William de Vescy and Agnes his wife, Reginald de Moun and Isabel his wife, William de Fortibus and Matilda his wife, Francis de Boun and Sibil his wife, William de Vallibus and Alienor his wife, John de Moun and Joan his wife, Agatha de Ferrers in the king’s custody, Roger de Mortimer and Matilda his wife, and William de Cantilupe and Eva his wife"[402]. A manuscript records the death “III Kal Feb” 1257 of “dominus Reginaldus de Mohun fundator” and in 1260 of “Isabella Basset uxor Reginaldi prædicti”[403]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 26 Nov "45 Hen III", after the death of "Isabel Basset" names "William son of Reginald de Moun and the said Isabel, age variously stated as 6 and 7, is her heir"[404].

Reynold [II] & his first wife had four children:

1. JOHN [I] de Mohun of Dunster (-Gascony [29 Jul 1253/1254], bur Bruton). A manuscript at Newenham names “Johannem, heredum ipsius” as son of “Reginaldum de Mohun, heredum ipsorum Reginaldi et Alicie” and his first wife “Hawysiam de Mohun”, adding that he died “in Gasconia”, that his heart was buried at Newenham “inter sepulcrum Reginaldi de Mohun, et Willielmi de Mohun, domini de Moun-Otery” and his body “apud Brewiton”[405]. The Complete Peerage records that John was living 29 Jul 1253[406]. His father Reynold agreed with the convent of Bath for masses for John’s soul, dated 1254[407]. m as her first husband, JOAN de Ferrers, daughter of WILLIAM de Ferrers Earl of Derby & his first wife Sibyl Marshall of the Earls of Pembroke (-[Oct 1267]). The Chronicle of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire names "Agnes, secunda Isabella, tertia Matilda, quarta Sibilla, quinta Johanna, sexta Alianora, septima Agatha" as the seven daughters of "Willielmo de Ferrers comiti Derbiæ" and his wife "quarta filia…Willihelmi Marescalli…Sibilla", adding that "Johanna quinta filia" married "Johanni de Mohun", by whom she was mother of "Johannes de Mohun, de quo Johannes, de eo Johannes"[408]. The Annals of Ireland record that “Sibilla comitissa de Ferreys” had seven daughters (in order) “tertia, Johanna Mohun, uxor domini Johannis de Mohun, filii domini Reginaldi…”[409]. A charter dated 28 Jun 1248 records that "Margaret late Countess of Lincoln…recovered her dower out of the lands in Ireland of W[alter] Marshall late Earl of Pembroke her husband" and that the dower was "taken out of the portions of the inheritance which accrued to William de Vescy and Agnes his wife, Reginald de Moun and Isabel his wife, Matilda de Kyme, Francis de Boun and Sibil his wife, William de Vallibus and Alienor his wife, John de Moun and Joan his wife, Agatha de Ferrers in the king’s custody, and Roger de Mortimer and Matilda his wife"[410]. A charter dated 26 May 1250 records the restoration of property, granted to "Margaret Countess of Lincoln", to "William de Vescy and Agnes his wife, Reginald de Moun and Isabel his wife, William de Fortibus and Matilda his wife, Francis de Boun and Sibil his wife, William de Vallibus and Alienor his wife, John de Moun and Joan his wife, Agatha de Ferrers in the king’s custody, Roger de Mortimer and Matilda his wife, and William de Cantilupe and Eva his wife"[411]. She married secondly (Aug 1256 or before) as his first wife, Sir Robert Aguillon of Watton and Perching[412]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 17 Feb "14 Edw I", after the death of "Robert Aguylun, alias de Aguylon, Agyloun, Aguillon", note that he died “on 15 Feb. 14 Edw. I”, name "Lady Isabel his daughter, whom Hugh Bardolf married, aged 28 at the feast of the Annunciation […at the Purification last past], in the said year […aged 24 and more], is his next heir" and notes “Schedule of manors and rents assigned to Margaret de Ripariis, late the wife of Robert de Aguillon, in dower…”[413]. John [I] & his wife had two children:

a) JOHN [II] de Mohun ([1248/50?]-11 Jun 1279). John de Mohun did homage to King Henry III and “obtained livery of his inheritance” Oct 1269[414]. Maxwell Lyte records that John de Mohun was summoned for military service in Wales in 1277, and was accompanied on campaign by “his brother Robert and Thomas du Pyn”[415]. Maxwell Lyte suggests that John “was little more than thirty years of age at the time of his death in 1279”[416]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 14 Jul "7 Edw I" (another writ dated 2 Jan, 13 Edw. I), after the death of "John de Moun alias de Mohun", record that "dower may be assigned to Eleanor late the wife of the said John”, record his death “on Sunday the feast of St. Barnabas”, name “John, his son, aged 9 and more […aged 10, and a little more…aged 10, entering upon 11], is his next heir”, and lists his properties and fee-holders in Bedford, Devon, Dorset, Hampshire, Somerset, and Warwick in detail[417]. By charter dated 2 Jan 1285, King Edward I confirmed the late holdings of “Johannis de Mohun, defuncti…in capite…senescallus noster in comitatibus Somerset et Dorset”, noting the dower of “Alianore que fuit uxor ipsius Johannis”[418]. m as her first husband, ELEANOR, daughter of Sir REYNOLD FitzPiers & his first wife Alice --- (-after Jan 1283). She married secondly William Martin Lord Martin. Inquisitions following a writ dated 2 Jan, 13 Edw. I (1285), after the death of "John de Mohun", record a writ to "William Martin, who married Eleanor late the wife of the said John de Mohun”[419]. John [II] & his wife had children:

i) JOHN [III] de Mohun ([1268/70]-25 Aug 1330, bur Dunster Priory). A manuscript at Newenham records that “Johannes de Mohun secundus” had “unum filium heredum…Johannem…tertius” who was “in custodia domini regis in tempore quo justiciarii domini regis itinerantes in Devonia sederunt”[420]. He was summoned to Parliament in 1299 whereby he is held to have become Lord Mohun.

- see below.

b) ROBERT de Mohun (-after Jun 1277). Maxwell Lyte records that John de Mohun was summoned for military service in Wales in 1277, and was accompanied on campaign by “his brother Robert and Thomas du Pyn”[421]: a summons dated “in octabis Sancti Johannis Baptiste anno regni dicti regis quinto” required military service against the Welsh, signed in Somerset “Johannes de Mohun…servicium iii. feodorum militis pro terris que fuerunt Reginaldi de Mohun, avi sui et…vi^te partis servicii v^te partis de hereditate Mareschall…per se ipsum, Robertum fratrem ejus, et per Thomam du Pyn, milites”[422].

2. ALICE de Mohun (-after [28 Oct 1251/27 Oct 1252]). Maxwell Lyte records her parentage, her first marriage “while a mere child, to William de Clinton, the younger, who settled on her land…40l. a year”, and her second marriage to “Robert de Beauchamp the younger of Hatch, in Somerset. To them her father…conveyed an estate known as ‘the Soke of Mohun’…between Fleet Bridge and Charing Cross” which they alienated to the abbot of Westminster [28 Oct 1251/27 Oct 1252][423]. A writ dated 16 Dec "31 Hen III" [28 Oct 1246/27 Oct 1247], after the death of "Nicia de Clinton" names "William de Parys knt her son is her heir" and "Aston township" in Buckinghamshire "Robert de Bello Campo holds in dower with Alice his wife 40 l land and Lady Eva de Clynton holds 20 l land in dower"[424]. Although Alice would not have held any properties from the Ferrers inheritance of her stepmother Isabel de Ferrers, her Beauchamp grandchildren did inherit a share in that succession from their mother Cécile de Vivonne who was Isabel’s niece. m firstly WILLIAM [IV] de Clinton, son of WILLIAM [III] de Clinton & his wife Nicia --- ([1225?]-before 1244). m secondly ([1245?]) ROBERT de Beauchamp of Hatch Beauchamp, Somerset, son of SIMON de Vautort & his wife --- de Beauchamp of Hatch Beauchamp, Somerset (-[1251/52]).

3. JULIANA de Mohun (-after [28 Oct 1255/27 Oct 1256]) Maxwell Lyte records her parentage and marriage, noting that “her father gave [them] an estate at Walton, Northamptonshire which was part of the Briwere inheritance” [28 Oct 1255/27 Oct 1256][425]. No source has been found which indicates how long Juliana lived after this grant. m ([1255]) WILLIAM de Lisle, son of ---. No primary source has been found which confirms William’s parentage or whether Juliana and her husband had children.

4. LUCY de Mohun (-after 25 Mar 1285). The Complete Peerage names “Lucy, da. of Sir Reynold de Mohun, of Dunster, Somerset” as the wife of John de Grey, naming in a later passage her mother “Hawise, da. and h. of William Fleming” (citing Maxwell Lyte)[426]. Maxwell Lyte’s History of Dunster records Lucy’s parentage and marriage, citing “St. George’s extracts from the Mohun Chronicle”[427]: unfortunately, Maxwell Lyte does not quote the precise extract relating to Lucy. The Complete Peerage cites documents dated 12 Dec 1276 and 24 May 1282 which name Lucy, widow of John de Grey[428]. By charter dated 2 Jan 1285, King Edward I confirmed the late holdings of “Johannis de Mohun, defuncti…in capite…senescallus noster in comitatibus Somerset et Dorset”, noting the dower of “Alianore que fuit uxor ipsius Johannis”; a separate list dated “die Lune in crastino Clausi Pasche” 1285 records in Dorset that “Osbertus [Gyffard] tenet unum feodum in [Wynterborn Huweton] de Lucia de Grey: eadem Lucia de Johanne de Mohun predicto defuncto…”[429]. m JOHN Grey, son of RICHARD de Grey of Codnor & his wife Lucy de Humez (-before 5 Jan 1272).

Reynold & his second wife had three children:

5. ISABEL de Mohun ([1245/53?]-[late 1260s/early 1270s?]). The Complete Peerage records her parentage and marriage, citing “St. George’s extracts from the Mohun Chronicle”[430]. Maxwell Lyte’s History of Dunster also records Isabel’s parentage, adding that she “is said to have married Edmund Deyncourt” (also citing “St. George’s extracts from the Mohun Chronicle”), a comment which suggests some doubt raised in the extract in question[431]: unfortunately, Maxwell Lyte does not quote the precise extract relating to Isabel. Isabel’s birth date range is suggested based on her parents’ likely marriage date, but bearing in mind her husband’s possible birth date. Her marriage date is suggested from the likely chronology of the Deincourt family. No indication has been found of Isabel’s date of death. The “Complete Peerage (Proposed corrections)” suggests that Edmund Deincourt had a second wife, assuming that in Apr 1327 “at least two of Edmund’s children were alive or had suriviving issue (his son John and his daughter Margaret [Willoughby]”[432]. However, this assumption does not appear correct if the Deincourt family reconstruction is correctly shown in the document ENGLISH LORDS D-K (follow Edmund Deincourt’s hyperlink). Nevertheless, some doubt about this Mohun/Deincourt marriage persists as no obviously Mohun/Ferrers properties have been noted in the later documents in which Edmund Lord Deincourt is named, suggesting that the marriage (if it took place) was short-lived and also that Isabel may have died childless (no reference has been found to Edmund retaining properties for life “by Courtesy of England”). m ([1268/69?]) [as his first wife,] EDMUND Deincourt, son of JOHN [IV] Deincourt of Blankney, Lincolnshire & his second wife Agnes de Neville ([1250/52?]-6 Jan 1327). He was summoned to Parliament from 1299, whereby he is held to have become Lord Deincourt.

6. WILLIAM de Mohun ([1253/54]-Ottery 17 Aug 1282, bur Newenham Abbey). A writ dated 26 Nov "45 Hen III", after the death of "Isabel Basset" names "William son of Reginald de Moun and the said Isabel, age variously stated as 6 and 7, is her heir"[433]. By order dated 18 Jan 1262, King Henry III sold “maritagium heredum Isabelle que fuit ux Reginaldi de Mohun” to “Willelmo La Zuche”[434]. Maxwell Lyte records that William inherited “Through his mother…the manors of Mildenhall, in Wiltshire, and Greywell, in Hampshire, lands at Sturminster Marshal, in Dorset, and Magor near Monmouth, and a larger estate in Kildare and Kilkenny”, and “from his half-nephew, John de Mohun of Dunster, the manors of Galmton, Stoke Fleming and Ottery called afterwards Ottery Mohun, and other property in Devonshire”[435]. In the case of Mildenhall and Greywell, the Inquisitions dated after 27 Feb 1327, cited below under William’s son-in-law John de Meriet, state that they were “…of the inheritance of Mary his wife, deceased…The manor[s] sometime belonged to a certain Reginald de Mohun…who gave [them] to William, his younger son, and the heirs of his body…”[436]: the same inquisitions show that these manors, part of the Ferrers inheritance through William’s mother, did not pass to William’s Mohun relatives/their descendants after the extinction of William’s direct line, but reverted to other Ferrers heirs. Inquisitions following a writ dated 26 Jun "17 Edw II" [1324], after the death of "Nicholas de Carru", record property in “Molesford”, Berkshire, naming “Thomas de Carru his uncle, aged 33 and more, is his next heir”[437]. Maxwell Lyte records documents dated 1277, 1280, and early-Aug 1282 in which he was named (different sources all cited)[438]. A manuscript records the death in 1280 [date incorrect] of “dominus Willelmus de Mohun, filius domini Reginaldi, …dominus de Oteri-Moun” who was buried “coram magno altari de Nyweham” and left “hæreditatem duabus filiabus”[439]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 20 Aug "10 Edw I", after the death of "William de Mohun alias de Moun, de Mohon, do Mowon, de Mouhun", name "Reginald his son aged 5 at Christmas next is his next heir...aged 6...aged 7 and more” and records that “Beatrice late the wife of the said William” held Stoke Fleming, Devonshire “in tenancy by the king’s writ until her dower be assigned”[440]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 1 Jul "25 Edw I", after the death of "William de Mohun alias de Mohoun, de Moun", records a partition of lands in Dorset, Devon, Wiltshire, Hampshire, Bedford and Berkshire made “25 Sep 25 Edw I [1297]” between "John de Meriet and Mary his wife, younger daughter…John de Carreu and Eleanor his wife, one of the daughters”[441]. A manuscript records the burial at Newenham of “dominus Willilemi de Mohun, dominus de Oteri-Moun, filius…Reginaldi, de Isabella secunda uxore sua procreatus”[442]. m BEATRICE, daughter of --- (-after 1288). Inquisitions following a writ dated 20 Aug "10 Edw I", after the death of "William de Mohun alias de Moun, de Mohon, do Mowon, de Mouhun", record that “Beatrice late the wife of the said William” held Stoke Fleming, Devonshire “in tenancy by the king’s writ until her dower be assigned”[443]. “Beatrix de Moun” held “Galmeton [Hundredum de Haythor, Devon] in dote…de heredibus Johannis de Mohun, et iidem heredes de Almarico de Sancto Amando…”, dated 1284/86[444]. In 1288, Beatrice made a fine “for royal licence to marry a second husband”[445]. William & his wife had four children (“Heredes Willelmi de Mohun” held “manerium de Otermoun [Hundredum de Axeministre, Devon]…[villam de Monketon [Hundredum de Colyton, Devon]…] de heredibus Johannis de Mohun…”, dated 1284/86[446].):

a) REYNOLD de Mohun ([1274/77]-1284). Inquisitions following a writ dated 20 Aug "10 Edw I", after the death of "William de Mohun alias de Moun, de Mohon, do Mowon, de Mouhun", name "Reginald his son aged 5 at Christmas next is his next heir...aged 6...aged 7 and more”[447]. Maxwell Lyte records that Reynold “died under age in 1284” (no source cited)[448].

b) ELEANOR de Mohun (Stoke Fleming Aug 1281-[1298/1300?]). The proof of age of "Eleanor daughter and one of the heirs of William de Mohun", taken before the king "at Westminster, 25 Edw I [1297]", records “John de Carreu [alias Karru], who married the said Eleanor” seeking the restitution of her lands, and declarations that Eleanor was "16 years of age at the Gule of August last, and was born at Stokefleming”[449]. Maxwell Lyte says that "Sir Nicholas de Carew had acquired [Eleanor’s] marriage for his son, in February 1295, from her aunt Isabel de Fienles, who had in turn acquired it from the Queen-mother"[450]: “Isabel de Fienles” has not otherwise been identified, nor her precise relationship with the Mohun family (she has not been found in the Fiennes family – see the document NORTHERN FRANCE-ARTOIS, BOULOGNE, GUINES…). Inquisitions following a writ dated 1 Jul "25 Edw I", after the death of "William de Mohun alias de Mohoun, de Moun", records a partition of lands in Dorset, Devon, Wiltshire, Hampshire, Bedford and Berkshire made “25 Sep 25 Edw I [1297]” between "John de Meriet and Mary his wife, younger daughter…John de Carreu and Eleanor his wife, one of the daughters”[451]. No record has been found of when Eleanor died, but presumably this was soon after her marriage. m (before 25 Sep 1297) as his first wife, JOHN de Carew, son of NICHOLAS de Carew & his wife --- (-before 26 Jun 1324). Inquisitions following a writ dated 20 Oct "5 Edw II" [1311], after the death of "Nicholas de Carreu", record property in “Mullesford”, Berkshire and “in the suburb of London”, and name “John his son, aged 30 and more, is his next heir”[452]. The chronology suggests that the deceased was the father of Eleanor de Mohun’s husband, which appears confirmed by the next document. Inquisitions following a writ dated 26 Jun "17 Edw II" [1324], after the death of "John de Carru", record property in “Molesford”, Berkshire, naming “Thomas de Carru his brother, aged 33 and more, is his next heir by the death of Nicholas son and heir of the said John who died on 20 June, 17 Edward II, of full age, seised of the said manor”, and properties in Devon “Otery, Moneketon, Galmeton and Stokeflemyng…Mammehefde…held for life of John de Mohun”, and noting in the case of “Molesforde…Joan, late the wife of the said John de Carru, John his son…still hold it by force, against the will of the king’s escheator”[453]. John & his wife had one child:

i) NICHOLAS de Carew ([1298/1300?]-20 Jun 1324). Inquisitions following a writ dated 27 Feb "1 Edw III" [1327], after the death of "John Meriet, de Meriet, Meryet, or de Meryet" [see below, husband of Mary de Mohun], record in “Greywelle”, Hampshire (and “Mildenhale”, Wiltshire) “…of the inheritance of Mary his wife, deceased…The manor sometime belonged to a certain Reginald de Mohun…who gave it to William, his younger son, and the heirs of his body. The said William had two daughters…Mary and Eleanor; Eleanor was espoused to one John de Carru and they had a son, Nicholas, who died without issue…”[454]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 26 Jun "17 Edw II" [1324], after the death of "Nicholas de Carru", record property in “Molesford”, Berkshire, naming “Thomas de Carru his uncle, aged 33 and more, is his next heir”[455]. His date of death is confirmed by the Inquisitions following a writ dated 26 Jun "17 Edw II" [1324], cited above under his father.

c) MARGARET de Mohun . Maxwell Lyte records her parentage and that she “died under age” (no source cited)[456]. The Chronicle of Tintern Abbey, Monmouthshire names "…secunda Isabella…" daughters of "Willielmo de Ferrers comiti Derbiæ" and his wife "quarta filia…Willihelmi Marescalli…Sibilla", adding that Isabel married "Reginaldo de Monteminori", by whom she was mother of "Willihelmus de Monte" who died childless, "filiam…Alianore" who married "Johanni filio Nicholai de Carrew", "Margareta soror eius" who died childless, and "Maria soror eius" who married "Johanni Meriot" but died childless[457].

d) MARY de Mohun (Mildenhall Dec 1282-before 6 Feb 1301). The proof of age of "Mary, younger daughter and one of the heirs of William de Mohun", taken before the king "at Westminster on the octave of Holy Trinity, 25 Edw I [1297]", records “John de Myriet, who married the said Mary” seeking the restitution of her lands, and declarations that Mary was born "in Mildehale and was 14 years of age at the feast of the Conception last past”[458]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 1 Jul "25 Edw I", after the death of "William de Mohun alias de Mohoun, de Moun", records a partition of lands in Dorset, Devon, Wiltshire, Hampshire, Bedford and Berkshire made “25 Sep 25 Edw I [1297]” between "John de Meriet and Mary his wife, younger daughter…John de Carreu and Eleanor his wife, one of the daughters”[459]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 6 Feb "29 Edw I" [1301], after the death of "Mary late the wife of John de Meriet", found that “The said John and Mary begat in wedlock a female child, alive with all her members right, who received baptism and was named Joan” by reason of which "the said John ought to hold the lands etc. which were of the inheritance of Mary by the courtesy (libertartem) of England”[460]. m (before Jun 1297) as his first wife, JOHN of Meriet, son of --- (-before 8 Dec 1326). Inquisitions dated 8 Dec “20 Edw II”, following an undated writ of certiorari, after the death of "John Meriet alias de Meriet", on the petition of “George, son and heir of the said John, for livery of a messuage and land in Castelearleton [Lincoln], which the said John demised to John de Arderne for life, 4 Oct 20 Ed II…who died six years ago and more…”[461]. Inquisitions following a writ dated 27 Feb "1 Edw III" [1327], after the death of "John Meriet, de Meriet, Meryet, or de Meryet", record in “Assheton Daundo…Hesercombe…Capelonde”, Somerset “Certain lands…enfeoffed jointly with Elizabeth his wife” and "John his son, aged 20 years at Michaelmas last, is his next heir”; in “Flitten”, Bedford “held of the inheritance of Mary his wife […deceased]…”, noting that “Maud de Kyme, one of the heirs of the said Mary, had issue Joan de Vivonia and Cecily de Bello Campo, kinswomen and heirs of the said Mary : which Joan had issue Peter son of Reginald, who had issue Roger, who had issue Henry, who is a minor and in the king’s wardship […aged 8 years]; and that the said Cecily had issue John de Bello Campo, the elder, of co. Somerset, who still survives. John de Bonhon […Bohun] of co. Sussex, John de Mohon of Donsterre, and Hugh de Mortuo Mari of Cheilmersche […[all three descendants of the Ferrers line] each aged 26 years and more], are the next heirs of the said Mary”; in “Magor in the Marches of Wales”, Gloucester, and “Sturmenstre Marschal”, Dorset, same heirs; in “Greywelle”, Southampton (and “Mildenhale”, Wiltshire) “…of the inheritance of Mary his wife, deceased…The manor sometime belonged to a certain Reginald de Mohun…who gave it to William, his younger son, and the heirs of his body. The said William had two daughters…Mary and Eleanor; Eleanor was espoused to one John de Carru and they had a son, Nicholas, who died without issue. The other daughter Mary was espoused to John de Meryet, and had a son Henry who died without issue. Through such failure of issue, the manor ought to revert to one John de Mohun as kinsman and heir of the said Reginald. From the said Reginald, the right of reversion of the said manor descended to John his son and heir, and from him to John his son, and from the said John son of John son of John to John his son and heir who now claims; he is aged 40 years and more”[462]. John & his wife had [two] children:

i) JOAN Meriet (-before 6 Feb 1301). Inquisitions following a writ dated 6 Feb "29 Edw I" [1301], after the death of "Mary late the wife of John de Meriet", found that “The said John and Mary begat in wedlock a female child, alive with all her members right, who received baptism and was named Joan”[463]. The wording indicates that Joan died before these inquisitions as she was not named as her mother’s heir.

ii) HENRY Meriet (-[before 6 Feb 1301?]). Inquisitions following a writ dated 27 Feb "1 Edw III" [1327], after the death of "John Meriet, de Meriet, Meryet, or de Meryet" [see above], record in “Greywelle”, Hampshire (and “Mildenhale”, Wiltshire) “…of the inheritance of Mary his wife, deceased…The manor sometime belonged to a certain Reginald de Mohun…who gave it to William, his younger son, and the heirs of his body. The said William had two daughters…Mary and Eleanor…The other daughter Mary was espoused to John de Meryet, and had a son Henry who died without issue…”[464]. Henry’s absence from the 6 Feb 1301 inquisitions after the death of his mother is presumably explained because he died while still a baby, and before his sister Joan.

MOUNTFORT (MONTFORT)

The following family is recorded in Preston, Rutland and Beaudesert, Warwickshire. Their names suggest a connection with the Seigneurs de Montfort-sur-Risle in Normandy, descendants of Thurstan de Bastembourg, in which the names Thurstan, Robert and Hugues were used repeatedly (see the document NORMANDY NOBILITY-ARQUES, AUMÂLE, CAUX). The Complete Peerage points out that Montfort-sur-Risle "is about 15 miles distant from Beaumont-le-Roger", the base of the Beaumont family who were Earls of Warwick in England and from whom the English Montfort family held Beaudesert[561]. Domesday Book records “Hugh de Montfort”, who is identified as Hugues [II] Seigneur de Montfort-sur-Risle, holding numerous properties in Essex, in Norfolk and in Suffolk[562]. Hugues [II]’s son Robert [I] was banished from England in 1107 following accusations of treason. Robert [I]'s younger brother Hugues [III] was recorded at Haughley, but Hugues [III]'s son Robert [II] was also banished in the early years of the reign of King Henry I. Turning to the family which is shown below, from a chronological point of view only it is possible that Thurstan [I] de Montfort was a younger brother of Hugues [II] Seigneur de Montfort-en-Risle, unrecorded in the Norman sources. It is also clear from the 1130 Pipe Roll, that the father of Robert [I] de Montfort of Preston, Rutland had held Preston before his son.

A. MONTFORT

1. THURSTAN [I] de Montfort (-after [1087/1100]). "…Turstini de Mundford…" is named as subscriber to a document, included in the Chronicle of Abingdon, which records Henry Earl of Warwick’s donation of "terrarum Turkilli de Ardene" (Chesterton and Hill) to the monastery of Abingdon during the reign of King William II and while Renaud was abbot[563].

Three brothers, parents not known:

1. ROBERT [I] de Montfort of Preston, co. Rutland (-before [1136/39]). The 1130 Pipe Roll records "Robt de Montef" accounting that his men “de Prestetona” in Rutland should pay him what they paid to “patr suo”[564]. Robert Bishop of Lincoln confirmed donations to Thorney, including the donation of “medietatem villæ de Wenga cum medietate ecclesiæ eiusdem villæ et cum molendino” made by “Roberti de Muntfort et Turstini fratris sui”, by undated charter[565]. He presumably died before [1136/39], the estimated date of the charter under which King Stephen confirmed to his brother Thurstan the donation to Thorney made by Robert (see below).

2. THURSTAN [II] de Montfort of Beaudesert, Warwickshire (-1170 or after). The 1130 Pipe Roll records "Turst de Montef" among “Nova Placita et Novæ Conventiones” in Berkshire[566]. Robert Bishop of Lincoln confirmed donations to Thorney, including the donation of “medietatem villæ de Wenga cum medietate ecclesiæ eiusdem villæ et cum molendino” made by “Roberti de Muntfort et Turstini fratris sui”, by undated charter[567]. King Stephen confirmed to “Thurstino de Montfort” the donation of land "de molendino de Wenga" made to Thorney abbey by "Robertus frater tuus" by charter dated to [1136/39][568]. “Thurstanus de Monteforti” confirmed the earlier donations to Thorney, for the souls of “meæ et uxoris meæ et filiorum meorum et...fratris mei Roberti de Monteforti”, by undated charter witnessed by “Robertus filius meus...”[569]. Empress Matilda granted "mercatum die dominica ad castellum suum de Bellodeser[to]" to "Turstino de Mont[eforti]" by charter dated 2/3 Mar 1141[570]. King Stephen confirmed to “Thurstino de Montfort” the donation of land made to Thorney abbey by "Robertus frater tuus" by charter dated to [1148/54][571]. “Turstinus de Mundeford” donated revenue from his mills at Ayton to Guisborough, for the soul of “fratris mei Henrici”, with the consent of “conjugis mee et heredis mei”, by charter dated to [1155/70] witnessed by “Roberto filio et herede ipsius Turstini...”[572]. m JULIANA Murdac, daughter of GEOFFREY Murdac & his wife ---. “Turstinus de Monteforti” claimed, from Eustace de Vesci, half Langeton in Yorkshire which descended from “Geoffrey Murdac...ad Julianam filiam suam...ad Robertum filium suum...ad Henricum fratrem eiusdem Roberti patrem prædicti Turstini”[573]. Thurstan [II] & his wife had three children:

a) ROBERT [II] de Montfort (-before 1185). “Thurstanus de Monteforti” confirmed the earlier donations to Thorney, for the souls of “meæ et uxoris meæ et filiorum meorum et...fratris mei Roberti de Monteforti”, by undated charter witnessed by “Robertus filius meus...”[574]. Henri Duke of Normandy addressed “Arnulpho episcopo Lexoviensi et Roberto de Monteforti” ordering an inquest to decide which holdings of "Thomas de Ponte-Episcopi" belonged to the priory of Saint-Ymer by charter dated to [Sep 1151/Jan 1153][575]. “Turstinus de Mundeford” donated revenue from his mills at Ayton to Guisborough, for the soul of “fratris mei Henrici”, with the consent of “conjugis mee et heredis mei”, by charter dated to [1155/70] witnessed by “Roberto filio et herede ipsius Turstini...”[576]. “Turstinus de Monteforti” claimed, from Eustace de Vesci, half Langeton in Yorkshire which descended from “Geoffrey Murdac...ad Julianam filiam suam...ad Robertum filium suum...ad Henricum fratrem eiusdem Roberti patrem prædicti Turstini”[577]. m ALICE de Harcourt, daughter of [IVO] de Harcourt & his wife [Rohese Peverel] (-after 1189). The Complete Peerage records her marriage and family origin. Her parentage has not been confirmed. From a chronological point of view, she could have been either a daughter of Rohese Peverel who married one of the Harcourt brothers.

b) HENRY [II] de Montfort (-before Apr 1199). “Turstinus de Monteforti” claimed, from Eustace de Vesci, half Langeton in Yorkshire which descended from “Geoffrey Murdac...ad Julianam filiam suam...ad Robertum filium suum...ad Henricum fratrem eiusdem Roberti patrem prædicti Turstini”[578]. The estimated date of birth of his son suggests that Henry [II] may have been considerably younger than his brother Robert [II] or that the mother of Henry [II] was not her husband’s first wife. "Henry de Monteforti" donated property to Castellion abbey, for the souls of "his father Turstin and his mother Juliana", by undated charter, witnessed by "Roberto de Offurd et Roberto filio eius...Henrico de Monteforte…"[579]. m (before [1183/87]) --- (-after 1199). The name of Henry’s wife is not known. The estimated date of birth of his son suggests that Henry [II] may have been considerably younger than his brother Robert [II] or that the mother of Henry [II] was not her husband’s first wife. Henry [II] & his wife had one child:

i) THURSTAN [III] de Montfort ([1183/87]-1216, before 21 Nov). “Turstinus de Monteforti” claimed, from Eustace de Vesci, half Langeton in Yorkshire which descended from “Geoffrey Murdac...ad Julianam filiam suam...ad Robertum filium suum...ad Henricum fratrem eiusdem Roberti patrem prædicti Turstini”[580].

- see below.

c) HUGH de Montfort . “Henr[icus] de Monte Forti” confirmed that he had granted “terras meas de Pychauilla et de Gouteuilla et de Cleuilla” to “Hugoni de Monte Forti fratri meo” by charter dated to [1178/99][581].

3. HENRY [I] de Montfort . The 1130 Pipe Roll records "Robert de Widuilla et Henri de Montf" accounting for “terre Rogeri de Molbrai” in Pembroke[582]. “Turstinus de Mundeford” donated revenue from his mills at Ayton to Guisborough, for the soul of “fratris mei Henrici”, with the consent of “conjugis mee et heredis mei”, by charter dated to [1155/70] witnessed by “Roberto filio et herede ipsius Turstini...”[583].

Two possible brothers:

1. WILLIAM de Montfort . “Aytrop Hasteng, Willelmo et Waltero de Monte Forti...” witnessed the charter dated to [1178/99] under which “Henr[icus] de Monte Forti” confirmed that he had granted “terras meas de Pychauilla et de Gouteuilla et de Cleuilla” to “Hugoni de Monte Forti fratri meo”[584].

2. [WALTER de Montfort . “Aytrop Hasteng, Willelmo et Waltero de Monte Forti...” witnessed the charter dated to [1178/99] under which “Henr[icus] de Monte Forti” confirmed that he had granted “terras meas de Pychauilla et de Gouteuilla et de Cleuilla” to “Hugoni de Monte Forti fratri meo”[585]. The contiguity of the two names suggests that William and Walter may have been brothers.]

It is not known whether the following persons, who were presumably all related to each other as they are named together in the same source, were members of the main Montfort family who is set out in the present chapter.

1. HUGH de Montfort (-after 31 Jan 1200). John King of England notified "Hugo de Monteforti" that “honor de Monteforti” was a fief of the king when King Henry II died and that King John received it from “Willi fil Rad seu Norm in custodia” dated 31 Jan 1200, witnessed by “...Rad de Monteforti, Willo de Monteforti, Hnr de Monteforti”[586].

2. RALPH de Montfort (-after 31 Jan 1200). John King of England notified "Hugo de Monteforti" that “honor de Monteforti” was a fief of the king when King Henry II died and that King John received it from “Willi fil Rad seu Norm in custodia” dated 31 Jan 1200, witnessed by “...Rad de Monteforti, Willo de Monteforti, Hnr de Monteforti”[587].

3. WILLIAM de Montfort (-after 31 Jan 1200). John King of England notified "Hugo de Monteforti" that “honor de Monteforti” was a fief of the king when King Henry II died and that King John received it from “Willi fil Rad seu Norm in custodia” dated 31 Jan 1200, witnessed by “...Rad de Monteforti, Willo de Monteforti, Hnr de Monteforti”[588].

4. HENRY de Montfort (-after 31 Jan 1200). John King of England notified "Hugo de Monteforti" that “honor de Monteforti” was a fief of the king when King Henry II died and that King John received it from “Willi fil Rad seu Norm in custodia” dated 31 Jan 1200, witnessed by “...Rad de Monteforti, Willo de Monteforti, Hnr de Monteforti”[589]. .

Three brothers, parents not known. It is not known whether they were related to the main Montfort family who is set out in the present chapter.

1. HENRY de Montfort . “Ivor de Teveleford” granted land in Chatley to “Robert de Berkelai” by charter dated to the reign of King John, witnessed by “Dom. Roger de Berkele, Henry de Monteforti, Roger and Hubert his brothers...”[590].

2. ROGER de Montfort . “Ivor de Teveleford” granted land in Chatley to “Robert de Berkelai” by charter dated to the reign of King John, witnessed by “Dom. Roger de Berkele, Henry de Monteforti, Roger and Hubert his brothers...”[591].

3. HUBERT de Montfort . “Ivor de Teveleford” granted land in Chatley to “Robert de Berkelai” by charter dated to the reign of King John, witnessed by “Dom. Roger de Berkele, Henry de Monteforti, Roger and Hubert his brothers...”[592].

The 1247 document quoted below indicates that the following small family group were members of a Norman family named Montfort. The Montfort family shown in this section, in which Robert was a family name, appears to be the most likely possibility. If that is correct, their precise relationship to this Montfort family has not been ascertained.

1. --- de Montfort . m --- du Hommet Dame de Glos, daughter of [RICHARD du Hommet & his [first/second] wife [--- du Hommet/Agnes de Say]] (-after 14 Jul 1223). Her parentage and marriage are indicated by the 1247 document quoted below, assuming that the term “avunculus” is interpreted in its strict sense of maternal uncle, and assuming the avunculus in question can be identified as Guillaume [II] du Hommet. One child:

a) ROBERT de Montfort . A list of Querimoniæ Normannorum, dated 1247, includes a document recording that “Robertus de Montfort miles” won a lawsuit against “Willelmus de Humeto avunculus eius” [presumably Guillaume [II] du Hommet], during the reign of Philippe II King of France, relating to “terram quam possederat mater ipsius apud Gloz de matrimonio suo” which she had continued to hold after King Philippe died, but that “dominus rex qui nunc est” [King Louis IX] refused to return the land to Robert who claimed to be “heredum dicti Willelmi propinquorum”, noting that “dictus Willelmus” died “MCCXI tercio, circa Ascensionem Domini”[593]. While the list in question is dated to 1247, it evidently includes documents which were produced earlier. Without further documentation, it is not possible to provide any precise dating for Robert, although the document shows that he must have been adult during the middle part of the reign of Philippe II. Considering the numerous descendants of Guillaume [II] du Hommet, it is difficult to see how Robert de Montfort could have successfully claimed to have been the heir of his “propinquorum”.

THURSTAN [III] de Montfort, son of HENRY [II] de Montfort & his wife --- ([1183/87]-1216, before 21 Nov). King John received the homage of "Tustan de Montiforti" and granted him his land on condition that he demised it for two years to "Willo de Cantilupo" by order dated 1205[594]. This confirmation, about six years after the death of his father, suggests that Thurstan [III] must have been a minor when his father died. The demise to William de Cauntelo suggests that Thurstan [III] may have been declared of age before the usual time and that it was considered that he required help in managing his estates. “Turstinus de Monteforti” claimed, from Eustace de Vesci, half Langeton in Yorkshire which descended from “Geoffrey Murdac...ad Julianam filiam suam...ad Robertum filium suum...ad Henricum fratrem eiusdem Roberti patrem prædicti Turstini”[595].

m ---. The name of Thurstan’s wife is not known. The reference in the source quoted above to the demise of Thurstan [III]’s land to William de Cauntelo (presumably identified as William [II] de Cauntelo) suggests a close relationship between the two. Maybe William was Thurstan’s father-in-law or brother-in-law (the chronology of the Cauntelo family is insufficiently clear to decide between these two possibilities), in which case his wife may have been --- de Cauntelo, daughter of [Walter de Cauntelo/William [II] de Cauntelo] & his wife ---. The fact that King John granted the marriage of Thurstan’s older son to William de Cauntelo, and that Thurstan [III] named his younger son William, are also suggestive of a connection between the two families.

Thurstan [III] & his wife had two children:

1. PIERS [I] de Montfort of Preston, co. Rutland ([1205/07]-killed in battle Evesham 4 Aug 1265). The Complete Peerage records that King John granted the wardship and marriage of Piers to William de Cauntelo in 1216[596]. “Petrus de Monteforti filius Turstini de Monteforti” confirmed the donation of land "in villa de Wenge cum advocatione ecclesiæ eiusdem villæ" to St Neot’s by charter dated 29 Aug 1245[597]. This confirmation presumably relates to the donation of the same place to Thorney priory which is quoted earlier in this chapter. The Patent Rolls record that "Peter de Monte Forti" claimed rights to forests in Rutland of which he alleged "Thurstan de Monte Forti great grandfather of the said Peter was seised in his demesne", orders dated 14 Jul 1253, 11 Sep 1253 and 25 Feb 1255[598]. "P. de Monte Forti" wrote to Henry III King of England, dated to [Dec 1262], reporting that he "found the Welsh march in great confusion" and names "dominorum Humfridi de Boun, Reginaldi filii Petri…"[599]. m (1228) ALICE de Audley, daughter of HENRY de Audley & his wife Bertred Mainwaring (after 1217-after 1265). An order dated 1228 notified that the king had granted "scutagium feodroum i militis et dimidii", held by "Petrus de Monte Forti qui filiam suam duxit in uxorem", to “Henrico de Aldithel”[600]. Piers & his wife had three children:

a) PIERS [II] de Montfort of Beaudesert, Warwickshire (-before 4 Mar 1287). The Annals of Dunstable record that “Simon de Monteforti junior, Petrus de eodem” were in Northampton when it was captured by the king in 1264[601]. The Annals of Waverley name “dominus Gudo filius domini Symonnis de Monteforti…duo filii domini Petri de Monteforti…dominus Petrus et dominus Robertus de Munfort” were among those captured at the battle of Evesham in 1265[602]. m ([1260]) MATILDA de la Mare, daughter of MATTHEW de la Mare & his wife ---. Her parentage and marriage are recorded in The Complete Peerage which does not cite a primary source[603]. John Bishop of Lincoln authorised the substitution of two regular canons at Oxford St Frideswide, for the souls of “domine Elizabeth de Monte Acuto...Petri de Monte Forti patris, domine Matildis matris eiusdem domine...”, charter dated 1 Mar 1380[604]. Piers & his wife had two children:

i) JOHN de Montfort (-[24 Jun 1295/11 May 1296]). He was summoned to Parliament in 1295 whereby he is held to have become Lord Montfort.

- LORDS MOUNTFORT[605].

b) ROBERT de Montfort (-1274). The Annals of Waverley name “dominus Gudo filius domini Symonnis de Monteforti…duo filii domini Petri de Monteforti…dominus Petrus et dominus Robertus de Munfort” were among those captured at the battle of Evesham in 1265[607]. m (before 14 Jan 1270) as her first husband, PETRONILLA de Dunstanville, daughter of WALTER [IV] de Dunstanville & his first wife Dionisia --- (22 Feb 1248-[1284/92]). A writ dated 28 Jan "53 Hen III", after the death of "Walter de Dunstanvil", names "Petronilla his daughter aged 22 on the day of St Peter in Cathedra next, whom Roberti de Monteforti married, is his heir"[608]. She married secondly ([1275/76]) as his first wife, John de la Mare. Wrottesley’s genealogical table, in his extract based on a claim by the king against Humphrey de Bohun Earl of Hereford for “the next presentation to the church of Ideshale (Albrighton)” in Shropshire, records “Petronilla” as the daughter of “Walter de Dunstanvylle, temp. Henr. 3” and her two husbands “Robert de Montfort” (with their son “William”) and “John de Mare, 2nd husband”[609]. Robert de Montfort & his wife had two children:

i) WILLIAM de Montfort (-[1309/Dec 1313]). He is named in Wrottesley’s genealogical table cited above under his mother.

ii) ROBERT de Montfort .

c) WILLIAM de Montfort . Pope Alexander IV issued an indult to “William clerk son of Peter de Montfort of the diocese of Worcester to hold benefices...”, dated 19 Dec 1258[610].

He succeeded his father as Lord Mowbray de iure when the latter was hanged in 1322.

- see below.

2. [ROGER de Mowbray . The parentage of Roger has not been confirmed. From a chronological point of view, he could have been a younger son of Roger de Mowbray. The absence of any reference to his parents in the source quoted below suggests that Roger had reached the age of majority at the time of his betrothal, even though his betrothed was probably still a child at the time. If that assumption is correct, it is unlikely that Roger was the son of John de Mowbray who died in 1322. Betrothed (Papal dispensation 17 Apr 1312) to MARGARET Abernethy, daughter of ALEXANDER Abernethy & his wife ---. The Papal dispensation for the marriage between “dominum Rogerum de Moubray” and “Margaretam filiam...Alexandri de Abbernythy”, who were “in gradu consanguinitatis prohibito”, is dated 17 Apr 1312[680].]

- EARLS of NORFOLK.

The editor of the Gyseburne cartulary says that the following family “was undoubtedly an offshoot of the great baronial house of the same name, whether directly or through some younger branch, such as the Colton line, is uncertain”[693]. No other indication has been found of the family relationship. The Victoria County History’s History of the County of York North Riding, Stokesley parish, discusses the earlier Tanton family, how the manor passed to the Mowbray family shown below, and its later history with the Meynell family and their successors until the 17th century[694].

1. WILLIAM [I] de Mowbray (-[1225/7 Dec 1234]]). “William de Mubray of Tanton” donated land “in Skutterskelfe” to Helagh Park, for his own soul and that of “William de Tanton, his brother [brother-in-law?]”, by undated charter[695]. The editor of the Whitby cartulary mentions other charters (in the Helagh Park chartulary) naming William [I] de Mowbray and [his son] Walter [I] de Mowbray, and members of the Tanton family [William [I]’s wife’s family], dating them all to [1225/35][696]. William [I] died before 7 Dec 1234, the date of the charter cited below which names his wife with her second husband. m OSANNA de Tanton, daughter of --- de Tanton & his wife --- (-[after [1225/30]?). Her name, family origin, and marriage are confirmed by Patent Rolls dated “6 Edw III” [1332] which record properties of Rievaulx, including donations made by (see below for earlier charters recording these donations) “Walterus de Moubray…Willemo de Moubray [Reythisdale, see below]…Osanna de Thametona [terra sua de Huhirste…]…Walterus de Moubray [confirmed donations…de tota terra de Huhirst by Osannæ matris suæ]…Willelmi de Grey…Willelmi de Thametona, avunculi ipsius Walteri, in Magna Broctona [see below]”[697]. Her family origin is also indicated in the following documents cited below under her son and grandson. She married secondly (before 7 Dec 1234) John de Langeberghe, this second marriage being confirmed by the charter of that date which records an agreement between Gyseburne and “Johannem de Langeberghe, et Osannam uxorem ejus”, recording property “ex dono Radulphi de Tameton, fratris ipsius Osannæ, cujus hæres ipsa est”[698]. William [I] & his wife had one child:

a) WALTER [I] de Mowbray (-[1246/1251]). His parentage is confirmed by the 1336 document cited above under his mother. “Willelmus de Grey” donated “totum manerium de Foxtona in Clyveland” to Rievaulx, manor which he had “ex dono Walteri de Mubray” and which “ego et Agnes de Humet, uxor mea” previously held “in dotem ipsius Agnetis…de tenemento quod fuit Willelmi de Thameton, quondam viri sui”, by undated charter[699]. Feet of Fines dated “a die S. Michaelis in quindecim dies…R. Henr. tricesimo” [1246] record an agreement between Rievaulx and “Willelmum de Grey et Angnetem, uxorem ejus, deforciantes” concerning “maneriis de Reydhesdalle et Buskeby [Busby]…”, noting the terms under which they held the manors in particular that after Agnes died they would revert “ad Walterum de Munbray et hæredes suis”[700]. Walter [I] presumably died before the [1251/52] Feet of Fines, cited below, which name his son William [II] in connection with the property recorded in the 1246 Feet of Fines. m ---. Walter [I] & his wife had one child:

i) WILLIAM [II] de Mowbray (-after [1251/52]). Feet of Fines dated “in Octabis S. Hillarii,…Henr. III. tricesimo sexto” [1251/52] record an agreement between Rievaulx and “Willelmum de Mubray, deforciantem” concerning “manerio de Magna Reythesdale et Parva Reythesdale [and land] in Parva Buskeby…”, which “idem Willelmus” held “de Willelmo de Grey et Agnete, uxore ejus…” [as above, in 1246] and which “fuit Willelmi de Tainton, quondam viri sui, avunculi Walteri, patris prædicti Willelmi de Mubray, cujus hæres ipse est”[701]. “Willelmus de Mubray, filius Walteri de Mubay de Tameton [Tanton, Stokesley parish] in Cliveland” donated property to Gyseburne by undated charter[702]. “Willelmus de Mumbray --- [missing words] Johanni de Bosco, hær. suis…” donated produce from “Molendinum meum de Tamthon…” to Egerton, mentioning “omnium feoffamentorum Osannæ de Tamthon…”, by undated charter, the editor of the Gyseburne cartulary suggesting that the donor was William [II][703]. “Willelmus filius Walteri de Mubray de Tameton” donated “de tota terra quam de me tenuit in Thormodeby” to Rievaulx, with the homage and service of “Dominæ Plesenciæ filiæ Domini Willelmi Britonis, et hæredum suorum”, by undated charter[704].

The 1 May 1329 charter cited below names Thomas de Mowbray as heir of William de Mowbray, the latter being “proavus” of the former, as well as two persons named William de Mowbray with their wives. If proavus was used in its strict sense of great-grandfather, the two other Williams could have been Thomas’s father and grandfather (although the document’s omission of their family relationships is surprising). In this scenario, proavus William could have been William [II] who is named above. However, proavus could indicate “ancestor” in a wider sense, and the two other Williams could have been collaterals. The question is somewhat complicated by the undated charter, cited above under William [II], which names “Willelmus de Mumbray --- [missing words] Johanni de Bosco, hær. suis…”: the Mowbray family relationship, if any, with John de Bois has not been ascertained, while whether “hær. suis” indicates that John was William’s heir could only be confirmed by the missing words “---". Until more information comes to light, the precise descent of Thomas from William [II] is not shown here. The Victoria County History’s History of the County of York North Riding, Stokesley parish, discusses Thomas’s supposed ancestors, as well as his descendants until the 16th century in Easby manor[705]: the sources cited have not been checked.

1. THOMAS de Mowbray (-after 1 May 1329).

This would also explain the transmission of the name Alexander into the Neville family. Her parentage is confirmed by the order dated 1204 which is quoted below.
