Biography

Birth and Parents

Isabel was the daughter of Richard de Steeton.[1] Her birth date is not known and has been guesstimated. She was probably born in Yorkshire where her father had lands.[2]

Marriages and Children

Isabel married twice. Her first husband was Robert de Ughtred.[1][3] The date of their marriage is uncertain and has been estimated at about 1290 from the possible birth date of their known son. They had at least one child:

Robert Ughtred died before 12 July 1310 when orders were given in relation to his lands.[5] Isabel was executor of his will.[3]

In 1310 Isabel married again, her second husband being William de Ros.[1][3][6] They had at least three children:

William de Ros died before 12 November 1334 when his son Robert, age 24, was found to be his heir in a Yorkshire Inquisition Post Mortem relating to Isabel de Vescy.[8]

Lands and Inheritance

Isabel was heir of her uncle Thomas de Steeton.[1][9]

In 1335 she sued for dower lands at Cattal Magna in Yorkshire.[10][11] The next year she sued for lands at Steeton, Yorkshire.[10][12][13]

In 1341 Isabel sued W Graa of York in relation to lands that had been held by her uncle Thomas de Steeton.[14] The case was still not determined on 3 May 1344, when orders were given to the royal justices to bring the matter before the king and council in parliament.[15]

Death

Isabel's death date is not known. A petition brought before Parliament in 1348 shows she was still living then.[16] (Cokayne gives the year as 1347:[1] it would have been brought before the Parliament of January-February 1347-8.[17]) She died before Michaelmas Term 1361, when her son Thomas Ughtred sued her executors for £100.[10][18]

De Steeton-1 and Steeton-1 appear to represent the same person because: She married Robert de Ughtred first, then William de Ros. She did not appear in my duplicate list since I put her as Steeton, as the rules want me to do it.

She married, second, William de Roos of Ingmanthorpe, Yorkshire, England and had a further son, Robert, ancestor of Humphrey Ros.
