Holdings
He was lately seised of the following tenement in demesne as of fee.
Newton
Surmaville, a messuage with curtilage and garden attached, a toft, carucate of land, and
166 a. pasture, annual value 40s., lately of
John
Holme
, held of the king
in chief by
rent of one cloth (mappe), worth 6s. 8d..
Before Michaelmas 1420, he granted the
tenement, described as all his lands and tenements with their rents, services, and
reversions in
Newton
Surmaville
, to
William
Loketon
and his heirs and assigns.
William
was thus seised in demesne as of fee and afterwards, but before 1 November
1420, granted the tenement by his indented charter to
John
Warmewell
and
Margery his wife for their lives, without impeachment of waste, with reversion to
William
Loketon
and his heirs.
William afterwards granted the reversion to
Richard
Peny
,
now deceased, and Alice his wife, still living, daughter of
John
Warmewell
and Margery,
and to the heirs of the bodies of Richard and Alice, with successive remainders to Alice
and the heirs of her body; to
Ralph
Bret, esquire
, and Agnes his wife, daughter of
John
Warmewell
and Margery, and to the heirs of their bodies; to Agnes and the heirs of her
body; and to the right heirs of
John
Warmewell
. The grant was made by indented charter,
dated on 3 October 1420 and shown to the jurors; and
John
Warmewell
and
Margery attorned to
Richard
Peny
and Alice.
Margery died, and
John
Warmewell
afterwards
died on 18 September 1435. Alice and Agnes, his daughters and next heirs,
are respectively aged 34 years and 32 years and more.
Ralph
Hille
took the issues of the
tenement from John’s death by virtue of letters patent to him and
Walter
Porteman
, and
takes them still [CFR 1430–37, p. 294].
John
Warmewell
thus held more lands and
tenements than specified in the inquisition taken before
Thomas
Husee
.
