By virtue of this fine the late earl was seised of the castle and manor in demesne as of fee tail and he died thus seised without heir of his body. After his death, and because Robert de Umfravile, chevalier , his brother, died before the earl, without an heir male of his body, Thomas Umfravile was seised of the castle and manor by virtue of the remainder. He died thus seised without heir male of his body. After his death, Thomas Umfravile , son of Joan, daughter of Adam de Rodom , was seised by virtue of the remainder. He had issue, Gilbert, and died thus seised. Afterwards, Gilbert was seised as his son and heir male and by virtue of the fine. Gilbert died thus seised without an heir male of his body, and after his death Robert Umfravile , son of Joan, who is the Robert Umfravile named in the writ, was seised by virtue of the remainder. He died thus seised without heir male of his body. After his death by virtue of the fine the castle and manor should remain to Walter Tailboys , aged 40 years and more, kin and heir of the late earl, viz., son of Walter Tailboys , son of Eleanor, daughter of Elizabeth, sister of the late earl.
