Holdings

Henry Molyns held of John Molyns , also deceased, 3 messuages and 2 virgates in Butleigh by the grant of John for life, paying 14s. yearly. John Molyns held them of the heir of Giles Daubeney , who was under age in the ward of Richard II , by knight service.

Butleigh. Two of the messuages and 1 virgate are held of the abbot of Glastonbury by the rent of a rose at Midsummer, the other messuage and virgate of John Panys by a rent of 1 lb. pepper at Michaelmas, annual value 23s.4d.

Henry Molyns died on 26 June 1397 . Nicholas son of John Molyns is his next heir and aged 24 years and more.

Henry Molyns granted these holdings to John Mollond , Helen his wife, and William their son, Roger Goudyng and Agnes his wife, John Shephurd and Alice his wife, Stephen Palmer and Walter Kittes for their lives for certain rents payable to himself, thus disinheriting Nicholas son and heir of John Molyns , then under age in the king’s ward. Owing to the grants Edward Bokeland , the escheator, took the holdings into the king’s hands on 30 July 1390 before the death of Henry Molyns . Richard II granted them by letters patent [CFR 1391–9 , p.62] on 12 Nov. 1392 to John Frank, clerk , until the full age of the heir of John Molyns . He has held and taken the profits since that date.
