Biography
Sir Thomas Martin was a member of the aristocracy in England.
Thomas Martin was born about 1430.[1]
Thomas Martin was the son of Sir Richard Martin and Elizabeth (de Pydele) Martin. [2]
Hutchins' [3] makes the next member of the Martin family to be Thomas Martin, who married a daughter of Sir John Clevedon. He died in 1485, and on the 8th November a writ of Diem Clausit Extremum was issued upon his death in the counties of Somerset and Dorset. This writ issued out of chancery is evidence that he was one of the king's tenants in capite, and the jury had to inquire of what lands he died seised, and their value, and who was the next heir.[4]
