Research Notes

Last Name at Birth

Some old sources show Margaret, wife of Thomas de Monthermer, as having the last name at birth Tiptoft. See for instance Volume IV of Wiltshire Notes and Queries.[7] This is incorrect. See this 2004 discussion in soc.genealogy.medieval suggesting that Margaret was daughter of Peter de Brewes.

On 21 Dec 2019 Pain Tiptoft and Agnes Ros were removed as parents of a profile subsequently merged into this one as there are no sources for the connection. Richardson states that Pain and Agnes had only one child: a son, John.[8][9]

19 Jan 1345/6 Alice widow of Warin de Insula, knight, and Henry Tyeys, knight, her son Thurs. after St. Hilary, 19 Edw. III Alice has granted to Henry two parts of her manor of Shyrebourne, and the reversion of the third part held in dower by Margaret widow of Henry Tyeys for her life; to him and his issue, with remainder to Warin de Lile her son and his issue, and her own right heirs. Witnesses: Aymer de Sancto Amando, Herbert de Seint Quintyn, Robert de Hildesle, knights, Gilbert de Shotesbrok, Robert Hoppegras.[10]

Thanks for adding this to the profile. It can be edited in fully when the profile is overhauled.

Tyeys-6 and Braose-165 appear to represent the same person because: Tyeys-6 incorrectly named, old profile, should be replaced by Braose-165. FirstHusband of 2nd Lord Tyeys. I can tidy up after the merge.

Thanks, Michael. I have completed the merge.

Tiptoft-16 and Braose-165 appear to represent the same person because: Margaret was originally thought to be the daughter of Payn Tiptoft.
posted by Ron Lamoreaux
See Douglas Richardson, Magna Carta Ancestry, volume III, pages 154-155 MONTAGU 6, which is for Margaret de Brewes, who married (1) Henry le Tyeys, (2) Thomas de Monthermer. No mention of Tiptoft.
posted by Liz (Noland) Shifflett
no mention in the main body. I checked PA & didn't find any mention of Tiptoft in the main body there either. The mention that Monthermer married "Margaret, dau. of ... Tiptoft" is in the small print.
posted by Liz (Noland) Shifflett
Thanks. Tiptoft as LNAB is wrong, though found in some old books. I will be merging with LNAB Braose. See my response to John Atkinson’s comment below.
posted by Michael Cayley
I would encourage there to be some investigation into the most appropriate LNAB for this profile before the merge takes place, whether that be Braose/Brewes or Unknown. Particularly as the current citations on this profile of Douglas Richardson's works are I suspect all from Marlyn Lewis' website and not actually from Richardson's books.

The Complete Peerage, 2nd ed. vol. 9, p. 143 unde Monthermer, has that Margaret is probably the widow of Henry Teyes, Lord Teyes, without indicating her parentage. The corrections and additions to TCP in the Chris Philipp's 'Some Notes on Medieval English genealogy' website has research by Douglas Richardson confirming that she is the widow of Henry Teyes, but again without any indication of family name or parents. http://www.medievalgenealogy.org.uk/cp/monthermer.shtml

There is a post from soc.genealogy.medieval from 2004, by Douglas Richardson proposing her last name be Brewes or Braose and parents as on this profile, based on a seal but I gather other people raise some issues that make this less likely (at least the parents) https://groups.google.com/g/soc.genealogy.medieval/c/Cxaav55X9nI/m/UfvVLYhKHdgJ

There is another series of posts on Margaret, dated 2017-2020 where again evidence is provided that she was definitely the widow of Henry Teyes or Tyeys, but again no mention of parents or family name, that I can see. https://groups.google.com/g/soc.genealogy.medieval/c/4fvmQdGfpJs/m/JpmKYIGrCQAJ

The fact that her family name hasn't been listed as a correction/addition on Chris Philipp's website is a good indication to me, that it hasn't definitely been confirmed and Unknown may be the most appropriate LNAB?

posted by John Atkinson
in the meantime, I locked the Braose profile.
posted by Liz (Noland) Shifflett
Thanks, John. I have looked at the 2004 discussion. It is clear that it was accepted that Margaret’s LNAB was not Tiptoft. As I read it, there was little challenge to Douglas Richardson's suggestion that Margaret was daughter of Peter de Brewes/Braose: this seems to have been accepted by others as the strong probability.

For now, I will be completing the merge with the LNAB Braose. Further research can be undertaken when this profile is overhauled - or by anyone who wants to undertake the research earlier.

By the way, the citations to Douglas Richardson are correct. I have added one more. They can be tidied up a bit when the profile is revised. I have removed Marlyn Lewis as a source, in accordance with my standard practice.

Edward I Plantagenet, King of England

Biography | Will | Lands | Descendants Chart

Birth: 17 Jun 1239 Westminster Palace, London

“Sexto decimo kalendas Julii, nocte sequenti, apud Westmonasterium natus est regi filius ex regina sua Alienora. Et rege sic volente aptatum est ei nomen, scilicet AEdwardus”1; “Edward was born at Westminster on the night of 17 June 1239. The news was greeted with great joy. The citizens of London took to the streets and celebrated by torchlight: they felt that they could claim the prince as one of their own number. In the royal chapel the king’s clerks sang Christus Vincit to mark the event. According to Matthew Paris, the general pleasure did not last long, for Henry III made it plain that the messengers sent out to announce the event were to bring back gifts. One courtier commented: ‘God gave us this child, but the king is selling him to us’.”2.

Baptism: 20 Jun 1239 Westminster Abbey

“Qui dico infantulus, regis filius, licet praesens esset archiepiscopus, postea quarto die domino Ottone legato in conventuali ecclesia ipsum baptizante”1; “The ceremony was conducted at Westminster Abbey by the papal legate Otto, in the presence of the archbishop of Canterbury, the bishops of London and Carlisle, the king’s brother Richard earl of Cornwall, and his brother-in-law Simon de Montfort, earl of Leicester. The baby was given an English name, reflecting Henry III’s devotion to the cult of St. Edward the Confessor, designed to add to the prestige of the monarchy”2.

Death: 7 Jul 1307 Burgh-by-Sands, Cumberland

“Edward I died on 7 July 1307, at Burgh-by-Sands, a few miles northwest of Carlisle. His health had been poor for some time. The spring seems to have brought some improvement to the king’s health. He was well enough to attend parliament at Carlisle for a time. Edward was certainly not in a fit state to campaign in Scotland, but his determination was such that, on 3 July, he rode out from Carlisle. He was suffering from dysentary, and progress amounted to a bare two miles a day. He spent the night of 6 July at Burgh-by-Sands, and when his servants came to lift him from his bed the next morning, so that he could eat, he died in their arms (Guisborough, 379).”2

Burial: 27 Oct 1307 Westminster Abbey

“Et tunc venerabile dictum corpus venit apud Westmonasterium, ubi similiter honestissimae vigiliae jugiter fiebant circa eum, et missae de die similiter celebrabantur sine numero usque in vigiliam sanctorum Symonis et Judae, quae quidem vigilia accidit in die Veneris. Quo quidem die Veneris praefati domini regis venerabile per omnia corpus [apud] Westmonasterium praedictum debito cum honore fuit reconditum et humatum retro summum altare ibidem in boriali parte”3; “It was not until about 18 October that the body was taken to London, where it was placed first in the monastery of Holy Trinity, and then in St Paul’s, before being carried to its last resting place, Westminster Abbey. The funeral service, on 27 October, was conducted, fittingly, by Edward’s old friend and recent adversary, Anthony Bek, bishop of Durham and patriarch of Jerusalem”2.

Occupation: King of England 1272-1307

Spouse 1:

Princess Eleanor of Castile

Marriage: 1 Nov 1254 Las Huelgas convent, near Burgos, Castile

“No chronicler recorded the date of Eleanor’s wedding. The Bury chronicle states that Edward reached Burgos on 13 October, but he was at Bayonne as late as 9 October, and a Castilian chronicle more reliably puts his Burgos entry on 18 October. Alphonso then knighted Edward and some English companions, as he had insisted on doing from the outset of marriage negotiations. The wedding all but certainly followed on 1 November, the date of Alphonso’s renunciation of his Gascon claims in Edward’s favor, and most likely at the Cistercian convent of las Huelgas near Burgos, the burial place of its founders, Eleanor’s great-grandparents Alfonso VIII and his Plantagenet queen (For the date, Trabut-Cussac, ‘L’administration anglaise’, 7; Ballesteros Beretta, ‘Alfonso X’, 100).”4

Children:

Katherine of England (1261-1264)

Joan of England (1265-1265)

John of England (1266-1271)

Henry of England (1268-1274)

Eleanor of England (1269-1298)

Beatrice(?) of England (1271-1272)

Joan of Acre (1272-1307)

Alphonso of England (1273-1284)

Margaret of England (1275->1333)

Berengaria of England (1276-1277)

Mary of England (1279-1332)

Elizabeth of England (1282-1316)

Edward II (1284-1327)

Spouse 2:

Princess Marguerite of France

Marriage: 10 Sep 1299 Canterbury Cathedral, Kent

“Et in crastino Nativitatis Beate Mariae venit Cantuariam, et vto idus Septembris dominus Robertus Cantuariensis archiepiscopus celebravit sponsalia inter regem et Margaretam in ostio ecclesiae versus claustrum, juxta ostium martyrii Sancti Thomae. Et subsequenter celebravit missam sponsalium ad altare feretri Sancti Thomae”5; “An interlude in the political wrangling occurred on 10 September 1299, when Edward married Margaret of France at Canterbury, in a ceremony conducted by Archbishop Winchelsey, who was, at least briefly, on relatively good terms with the king. The bishops of Durham, Winchester and Chester were present, as were the earls of Lincoln, Warenne, Warwick, Lancaster, Hereford and Norfolk, along with a host of other magnates. After the ceremony, there was a splendid feast, with entertainment provided by a host of minstrels. The festivities took three days in all”2.

Children:

Thomas of Brotherton (1300-1338)

Edmund of Woodstock (1301-1330)

Eleanor of Winchester (1306-1310)
