Research Notes

In his Brandeston chapter Copinger cited a genealogically useful charter from 19 Edward II (1325/6).^[4]

Unfortunately, Copinger cited it wrongly as being from 9 Edward II! Copinger wrote:^[5]

In 1316 a fine was levied between Master Robert de Baldcock, archdeacon of Middlesex, Chancellor to King Edw. II., and Bishop of Norwich, against Sir William de Weyland, the eldest son of Sir Thomas Weyland, of this manor, and Westerfield, by which they passed to the said Robert [de Baldcock], who regranted the same to Robert, son of the said Sir William de Weyland, and Cecilia his (Robert's) wife, daughter of Thomas de Baldcock, and the heirs of their bodies, being a marriage arrangement'

The fine shows that Robert's father was Sir William. However, it is important to note that not only the year is wrong in Copinger's report, but the father of Sir William apparently is not named in the fine. This was added by Copinger. See the article for Sir William the father article to this one.

The fine also shows that Robert de Weylond married Cecilia de Baldock about 1325/6 (not 1316!) which means it was not so long before Sir William died.
