Linscote | John de | 1347 | Linscote | Devon | Most likely the Linscote near Bradworthy 1347 From The History of the Granville Family, Traced Back to Rollo, First Duke of Normandy, with Pedigrees, etc., by Roger Granville, M.A., Rector of Bideford (1895): https://archive.org/stream/historyofgranvil00gran#page/52/mode/2up Henry de Grenvile left a son and heir, Theobald, who was but four years old at the time of his father's death. During his minority he was ward to Sir John Carew, and on obtaining manhood was knighted. He married Joyce, daughter of Thomas Beaumont, Earl of Mellent. As an instance of the open warfare which was often carried on in the fourteenth century between the secular and ecclesiastical authorities, and of the way in which weapons from the spiritual armoury were brought to bear upon the King's officers, may be mentioned the raid which young Sir Theobald made, as Sheriff of Devon, upon the manor of Tawton [Bishop's Tawton?], near Barnstaple, in the summer of 1347. A suit had arisen upon some disputed presentation, and the court of King's Bench made an order against the Bishop of Exeter for a considerable sum of money. The Sheriff received the King's writ, in which he was directed to enforce execution upon the Bishop's goods and chattels. Accordingly, Sir Theobald, whom Bishop Grandisson designates in his "Register," vol. i. fol. 139, as " juvenis Miles sive Thiro status militaris," on the Saturday after the feast of St. Benedict (July), at the dawn of day, with Thomas de Merton, Richard Tyrel, John de LINSCOTE, John Trenger, and a rabble composed of about 500 persons, proceeded with arms, oftensive and defensive, to the manor of Tawton, and to the glebe and Vicarage house, and forcing premises belonging to the Church, as also houses of free tenants there. | archive.org/stream/historyofgranvil00gran#page/52/mode/2up | |||

Lymescote | Richard | 1471 | Tavistock | Devon | Tavistock is west south west of Okehampton on the western edge of Dartmoor. The Abbots of Tavistock : with views beyond, p. 254. archive.org/details/abbotsoftavistoc00alfo/page/254 From the earliest accounts we have payments of pence made for the various altars, e.g., of St. Eustachius, St. Katherine, St. Blaise, St. John the Baptist, the Holy Trinity, St. George, and St. Saviour. We have also gifts to the vicar at the anniversaries of the deaths of certain persons, who were benefactors of the church, or were for some special reason to be remembered. The number of these grows very rapidly. In 1386 there are payments to Sir Simon, the vicar, for the anniversaries of John Cullyng and Sormunda his wife...the charge being 6d., i,e. one penny for each. By 1426 there are added to these John Glaucestre and Margaret his wife...In 1471 we have most of these names repeated, though some are much altered, e.g., Cullyng has become Collyns; Honte, Hunta; Talant, Tallond; and there are added to them the names of John LYMESCOTE, John Wyndowte and Joan his wife....[p. 255] Often money was left to feed a certain number of the poor at these anniversaries; so under 1426-7 we have, bread bought for the exequies annually celebrated for the anniversaries of the benefactors of the church, sixpence; seven flagons of ale bought for the said exequies, ten pence. There must have been something very helpful to faith and love and hope in relations being thus remembered together, year after year, in the prayers of the church of the parish in which they had lived and died. | archive.org/details/abbotsoftavistoc00alfo/page/254 | |||

And Richard Lympscotte baptized to a father John in Drewsteignton in 1614 (a week after Henry's baptism so probably not John and Agnes Linscott). | ||||
