Biography
The Pennington Pedigree by Foster describes this John as the son of Sir Richard Hoddleston and his wife Alice.[1] Foster gives this marriage as 1317/18 but that seems much too early. Nicolson[2] said his parents Richard and Alice married c. 1320 and their grandson John married c. 1391 which would put THIS generation of John and Maude Pennington likely married about 1350. That would put this profile's birth year at about 1325 per WikiTree standards (25 years to first marriage).
3 generations (and more) of ancestors are shown in the Visitation of Cumberland[3] and the "History and Antiquities...&c" work by Joseph Nicolson and others.[2] The Visitation of Cumberland does not credit this marriage to Maude Pennington; it says instead that John the son of Richard & Alice married a "Daughter of Henry Fenwick"
Some sources give Alice's name as "Troughton", some don't assert a surname.
"Visitation of Yorkshire" for 1654 says that she was Alice Tunstall, daughter of Thomas Tunstall and Alice Nevell.[4]
There are (at least) 4 different versions of this lineage as shown in the Huddleston Free Space Page on WikiTree, not all of them show a Pennington marriage. Hopefully more sources and analysis will come to light along with original documents such as IPMs.
Research Notes
A fascinating pair of 1398 court petitions appear at the UK National Archives related to Richard Huddleston, son and heir of John Huddleston (aka de Hodelston) and Robert Harrington (aka de Haryngton) and Millom manor. While it's hard to tell "which" John and Richard Huddleston is meant, given that in 1398 Richard was a grown man it seems very likely to be the son of this profile. Possibly, if THIS John who married Maude Pennington DID have a son John who married Catherine Tempest, then it might be the Richard of one generation later. The text of the complaints are these:
- Haryngton requests remedy since until recently he was seised and in peaceful possession of the manor of Millom because of the minority of Richard de Hodeleston, which manor malefactors now occupy, after forcibly entering, expelling his servants, destroying goods worth £200 and taking his tenants' rents. The chancellor should make a commission to certain men, including (John) Scarborough, to enquire into this matter and certify it with all possible haste.[5]
- A request to grant a commission to certain men and a serjeant at arms to arrest Richard son of John de Hodeleston, Harrington, Richard and Gilbert de Newton, Twisleton, Richard de Hodeleston of Hayton and Chamber and bring them before the King's council to answer for their deeds mentioned in the attached bill, and that the commissioners enquire into their forcible entry into the manor of Millom and the names of their accomplices.[6]
