Barony of Kyme


KYME by writ 1295

Umfreville 1398-1436, this was an incorrect succession but they had possesion of Kyme Castle until Robert de Umfreville died in 1436.

Tailboys Lord Tailboys by writ 1529, sometimes Tailboys de Kyme or Talboys and merged with the Baron of Kyme.

I think the LNAB is cited as Umfreville, CLN de Umfreville which is spelled differently than his father.

Please doublecheck the sources and put a note in for the spelling.

Also numerically his father is cited as 2nd Earl of Angus and he's 10th Earl of Angus which probably also deserves a note on which number goes with which source (Cokayne or Richardson). Thank you!
