BARONY OF LISLE (II)

WARIN (DE LISLE), LORD LISLE, and presumably, according to moderndoctrine, LORD TEYES, son and heir by 1st wife, was aged 30 at hisfather's death. He was already a Knight in October 1359, when he wassetting out for France with Henry, Earl of Lancaster. In July 1360, hisfather having held no lands in chief, the escheator was ordered not tointerfere, and in August Warin had livery, Richard, Earl of Arundel,undertaking to answer should it be found that any lands were held inchief. In December 1363 Warin del Isle was ordered to bestir himself inthe capture of the malefactors who had lately lived by plunder in foreignparts and were now committing outrages in Wiltshire, &c., as he hadhitherto failed in his duty in the matter. In 1364 he was made acommissioner of the peace in Berks, and was appointed on othercommissions later. He was one of the feoffees of Richard, Earl ofArundel, in 1366. He was summoned to Parliament from 6 April 1369 to 24March 1381/2, by writs directed Warino de Insula. In July 1362 he hadprotection on going over seas in the company of the Duke of Lancaster,and at about the same time he was appointed captain and keeper ofPortsmouth. In 1372 he was allowed to appoint attorneys for a year, beingengaged on the King's service abroad as a banneret, with 4 knights, 5esquires, and 10 men-at-arms. On 5 March 1376/7 he had licence tocrenellate his house at Shirburn, co. Oxford. He was still engaged in thewars in France, but in April 1380 was sent on the King's service intoIreland.

He married, 1stly, in or before 1359, Margaret, widow of Robert FitzElys,and daughter and coheir of Sir William PYPARD, by Margery his wife. Shedied 3 August 1375. He married, 2ndly, Joan, widow of John WYNNOW, bywhom he had no issue. Her parentage is unknown. He died 28 June 1382. Hiswidow died 27 April 1392, holding lands in dower from both her husbands.[Complete Peerage VIII:51-2, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]

     Margaret Pypard married Robert FitzElys.¹ Margaret Pypard was born circa 1335 at Sydenham, Thame, Oxfordshire, England. She was the daughter of William Pypard , of Sydenahm, Sir and Margery (?) Margaret Pypard married Warin 2nd Baron de Lisle , of Kingston, KG, Sir, son of Gerard 1st Baron de Lisle , of Kingston, Sir and Eleanor le Strange, before 1359.¹ Margaret Pypard died on 3 August 1375 at Kingston Lisle, Sparsholt, Berkshire, England.¹

     He On the Barony of de L'Isle [Burke's Peerage]

Meanwhile in 1357 a Gerard de Lisle, second cousin of the Robertmentioned above and grandson of another Gerard who had acquired theBerkshire manor of Kingston Lisle from his mother, was called toParliament by writ. He thus became according to later doctrine Lord(Baron) Lisle [the Barony de Lisle of the aforementioned Robert existeduntil 1428, making two Baronies named the same]. As has been remarkedelsewhere, the absurdity of two peers of Parliament with identical titlesexisting simultaneously is one of the strongest arguments for supposingearly writs of summons were not intended to create heritable titles ofhonour. This 1st Lord Lisle of the 1357 creation also fought at Crecy,as well as in other battles of the Hundred Years War. The 1357 peeragedescended to two sole heiresses in succession, who by a later doctrinewould have been deemed baronesses in their own right. With the death ofthe second sole heiress any barony created by the writ of 1357 would havebeen deemed by later doctrine to have fallen into abeyance. In 1823 adescendant of this second sole heiress, Sir John Shelley Sidney, 1stBaronet, unsuccessfully petitioned the House of Lords to terminate theabeyance in his favour.

In 1359 he had a dispute with his mother as to thepresentation to Stowe church, Northants, but admitted that it was not histurn; he also complained of trespass on his park at Stowe. In June 1340he was going beyond seas with the Earl of Arundel, and was engaged, as abanneret, in the French camaign of 1346-1347, fighting at Crécy in theEarl's division.

     He Th 5th and last Earl of Norfolk of this 1140/1 or 1189 creation, anotherRoger (le) Bigod, also served as Marshal at Edward I's coronation but wasstripped of the office by the King on refusing to take an army to Gasconyin early 1297. After a long-standing dispute with the King over theconfirmation of his charters and Magna Charta itself he in 1302surrendered the Earldom for regrant together with a life interest inadditional territorial possessions bringing him an annual income of 1000pounds (over 24 million in late 1990 pounds). On his dying childless inlate 1306 the Earldom and Marshalcy reverted to the Crown, whereas if hehad not made the surrender four years earlier the former at any ratewould have passed to his brother.

--------------------------

Roger was the hero of a famous altercation with Edward I in 1297, whocommanded him to serve against the King of France in Gascony, whileEdward went to Flanders. The earl asserted that by the tenure of hislands he was only compelled to serve across the seas in the company ofthe king himself, whereupon Edward said, 'By God, earl, you shall eithergo or hang,' to which Bigod replied, 'By the same oath, O king, I willneither go nor hang.' The earl gained his point, and after Edward leftfor France, he and Humphrey de Bohun, Earl of Hereford, prevented thecollection of an aid for the war and forced Edward to confirm thecharters in this year and again in 1301. Roger died without issue. Histitle became extinct and reverted to the crown. The Bigods held thehereditary office of steward (dapifer) of the royal household, and theirchief castle was at Framlingham in Suffolk.

Roger Bigod, 5th Earl of Norfolk, and 2nd earl marshal of this family,took a distinguished part in the wars of King Edward I., havingpreviously, however, in conjunction with the Earl of Hereford, compelledeven that resolute monarch to ratify the Great Charter and Charter of theForest. His lordship m. 1st, Aliva, dau. and heiress of Phillip, LordBasset, and widow of Hugh Despencer, slain at Evesham, and 2ndly, Joane,dau. of John de Avenne, Earl of Bayonne, but had no issue by either. Inthe 29th of Edward I. the earl constituted that monarch his heir, andsurrendered into his hands the marshal's rod, upon condition that itshould be returned in the event of his having children, and that heshould receive £1,000 prompt, and £1,000 a year for life; in consequenceof which surrender his lordship was recreated Earl of Norfolk in 1302,with remainder to his heirs male by his 1st wife, but dying withoutissue, as stated above, in five years afterwards, the Earldom became(according to the surrender) extinct in the Bigod family, although hislordship left a brother, John Bigod, his heir-at-law, whose right seemsto have been annihilated in this very unjust and extraordinary manner,and so completely destroyed that he did not even inherit any of the greatestates of his ancestors.

     He BARONY OF MOUNTJOY (I) 1465

WALTER BLOUNT, son and heir, born circa 1420, 'in the hundred ofAppletree' [co. Derby], probably at Barton Blount. He was a Knight of theShire for Derby 1447 and later to 1460. In 1449 he was bailiff for lifeof the wapentakes of Morleston and Litchurch, co. Derby, and J.P. (exceptfrom 1456-60). During the disturbances at the time of the King's insanityin 1454, he was under suspicion of taking part in plots, and indeed hebecame a Yorkist; but he was pardoned in December 1459, though deprivedof his bailiwick. On 22 October 1460, a few days after Richard, Duke ofYork, asserted his title to the Crown and was in power, Blount was madetreasurer of Calais, being continued in that office in 1461, and K.B.before the Coronation of Edward IV, 4 March 1460/1. In October of thatyear he was laying siege to the castle of Hammes, near Calais, and inJuly 1463 was a member of the embassy sent to meet the commissioners ofthe Duke of Burgundy at St. Omer. He was made Treasurer of England, 24November 1464, and held the office for a little more than 15 months. On2O June 1465 he was created LORD MOUNTJOY (Dominus de Mountjoy), to himand the heirs male of his body, witb a fee of 20 marks, part from thetown of Thurvaston and part from the profits of Derbyshire and Notts. InAugust 1467 he was one of the King's courtiers present in the inn of theAichbishop of York when he surrendered the Great Seal to Edward IV. In1468 he was allowed to ship wool free of customs in consideration of thelarge sum of money then due to him; and in the same year entered intoarticles to serve the King as Captain of the Army, with 60 men-at-armsand 2,940 archers, in his proposed expedition against France in aid ofthe Duke of Brittany, but the design being abandoned, he was againretained to serve with 1,000 men, 60 being men-at-arms, and shortlybefore April 1469 to serve at sea. When Edward IV was a prisoner in thehands of Warwick in August and September 1469, Mountjoy apparently waswith him, for he returned to London with the King in October. In April1470 he and the Earl of Wiltshire were empowered to receive thesubmission of rebels who had taken part in the Lincolnshire revolt inMarch. There does not appear to be any record of the part he playedduring the short restoration (October 1470,to April 1471) of Henry VI,but his son William died of wounds received at the battle of Barnet, 14April 1471, fighting for Edward IV. On 3 July 1471 Mountjoy took the oathof fidelity to the King's infant son Edward (born 4 November 1470) on hiscreation as Prince of Wales; and on 24 April 1472 he was nominated K.G.In February 1472/3 he was a commissioner to inquire as to piraticalattacks on Portuguese vessels, and in July was one of the King's Councilpresent at the delivery of the Great Seat to Edward IV in the refectoryof the Franciscan house at Stamford.

He married, 1stly, in or before 1442, Ellen, daughter of Sir John BYRON,of Clayton, near Manchester. She was buried at Elvaston. He married,2ndly, before 25 November 1467, Anne, widow of Humphrey (STAFFORD), DUKEOF BUCKINGHAM (died 1460), and daughter of Ralph (NEVILLE), EARL OFWESTMORLAND, by Joan DE BEAUFORT, legitimated da. of John of Gaunt. Hedied 1 August 1474, and was buried in the chapel of the Apostles in theChurch of the Grey Friars, London. His widow, by whom he had no issue,and who continued to be known as Duchess of Buckingham, had dowerassigned 11 March 1474/5. She died 20 September 1480, and was buried atPleshey, Essex.

He died 6 August 1246, and was buried at Wigmore. Hiswidow died in 1251. [Complete Peerage IX:275-6, (transcribed by DaveUtzinger)]

NOTE: The identity of Gwladus's mother is still a matter of debate. Thereis no clear contemporary evidence that her mother was Joan, and adaughter of Llewelyn and Joan could not have been aged more than about 9in 1215. The only direct statements appear to come some centuries later.One strand of the later tradition does identify Gwladus's mother as Joan,but another says she was Llewelyn's mistress Tangwystl.

[This question has been discussed by - among many others - StewartBaldwin, Rosie Bevan, Ken Finton, Todd Farmerie, John P. Ravilious, PaulReed, Douglas Richardson, Henry Sutliff, Nat Taylor and Brad Verity.][Some Corrections and Additions to CP]

------------------------------------

Let me make one final general observation. There was a definite andtimely reason that Reginald de Broase married Gwladys Ddu in 1215. Hisbrother Giles, Bishop of Hereford, rebelled as soon as he received aroyal grant of 'his' patrimony and joined Llywelyn (as leader of theWelsh forces) in general rebellion against John (remember that this wasalso about the time the North of England, etc., rebelled against John).Reginald immediately joined his brother in marching on their patrimony inthe Marches to secure it by force. To cement their alliance (Giles beinga bishop and all), Reginald was married to a daughter of PrinceLlywelyn. Her name happened to be Gwladys, the dark eyed.

I would find it EXTRAORDINARILY coincidental if Gwladys just happened tobe BARELY age twelve in 1215, when it was found expedient to marry her toReginald. He was older, already experienced in the art of war and theability to lead men. His elder deceased brother William was alreadyfather of four sons held as hostages by King John.

I would be utterly amazed if we found that Gwladys was aged twelve in1215. The cause of their marriage was not (as far as we know) aprearranged marriage contract that happened to coincide with politicalexpediency--the marriage was a RESULT of the political events thatoccurred in 1215.

After Reginald de Braose betrayed Llywelyn and became King John's man in1217 [to give homage, one had to be in the actual presence of the King],and his nephew John de Braose was released in 1218, Llywelyn found aready ally in the younger John, who was attempting to get his rightfulinheritance from Reginald (who was in possession of most of it), in 1218,Llywelyn, out of political expediency, married his daughter Margared tothis John.

Thus, if the marriage between Gwladys and Reginald was the result ofpolitical events, and they had not been heatedly awaiting her birthday sothat they could be wed in a full and legal manner that would bepermanent--rather than something that could be easily broken (or at leastbroken with some effort and complicity)--I would conclude it is mostlikely that Gwladys was actually older than twelve years old in 1215.Does that seem reasonable?

Nicholas Tregoze, heir to his brother. This person married Eva -- (whosurvived him); and before 3rd Edw. I. (1274), by the description of'Nicholas, son and heir of Geoffry Tregoze,' be enfeoffed one RobertBurnell, of Billingford Manor, co. Norfolk, and sold lands there to otherpersons. He then however held one fee in Tolleshunte, in Essex, and hadassize of bread and ale there; but 'the Hundredors (Inq. Rot. Hund.) knewnot by what warrant.' Nicholas Tregoze died s. p. before or in 7th Edw.I. (1278-9), for in that year Richard de Holebrooke was commanded toseize for the King the manors of Tolleshunte and Blunteshall, which hadbeen his (Nicholas's), and which be had held in capite. Of this NicholasTregoze, we also find the following mention in the Hundred Rolls ofEssex, 2nd Edw. I. 'They (the Hundredors of Witham) say, that Roger deChaundeford took five silver marks unjustly of Roger Fitz-John, whomNicholas Tregoz had unjustly imprisoned, nor could he be liberated, evenby the King's command, until he had made the said satisfaction to thesaid Roger de Cbatmdeford.'

2, Joan Tregoze, wife of ------ de Burnham and mother of James deBurnham, her son and heir.
3. Hawisia, wife of [William] Gernoun, by whom she had a son John Gernoun.

After Nicholas Tregoze's death, these three persons, John Wood, JamesBurnham, and John Gernoun, had a contest with one Hugh Crepinge, for themanors of Tolleshunte-Tregoze and BIuneshall in Essex, they claiming ascoheirs at law of the said Nicholas in right of their respective mothers,his sisters, and he, of Nicholas' grant to him. The contest wasdetermined in favour of the coheirs, and by inquisition taken before theescheator of Essex in Trinity Term 21 Edw. I. they were ordered to paytheir relief, and do homage to the King for the same. And it wasdeclared that Hugh Crepping was never seised of the said lands, becauseEva, wife of Nicholas Tregoze survived her husband. Thus, ended thisbranch of the family.
