‹ E-CIPM 19-722: MARGARET WIDOW OF THOMAS DE BOYNTON, KNIGHT ›

Holdings

Ingram Mounceux held in his demesne as of fee 2 messuages, 3 cottages and 16 bovates in Boynton and gave them to William de Boynton and Alice his wife, Ingram’s daughter, and the heirs of their bodies. From them they descended to Ingram their son, William his son, Thomas his son, Thomas his son and Henry his son, who assigned the premises to Margaret widow of the younger Thomas in dower, with other lands and tenements in Newton in Cleveland and Snainton.

Henry died on 20 July 1405 and the reversion descended to Thomas his son and heir who is aged 12 years and no more.

The premises in Boynton are held of Joan Mounceux of her manor of Barmston by homage, relief and fealty and a payment of 3/4d. for each bovate for ‘shirrifgild’ and castle guard. When Margaret died Joan Mounceux held the premises owing to the minority until she was ejected by Christopher de Boynton in virtue of letters patent made on his untrue statement [CFR 1405–13 , pp.131, 146].

The half manor of Newton in Cleveland is held of John de Lomley, knight , by knight service. The premises in Snainton are held of the king of the duchy of Lancaster, of the honour of Pickering, service unknown.
