The manor and advowson were described in the charter as their manor of Langton Long Blandford, the lands, tenements, rents, services, and reversions, and advowson of the church, that they lately held to them and their heirs and assigns by enfeoffment of Robert Derby. Michaela was thus seised of the manor in demesne as of free tenement, and seised of the advowson by right, and she died so seised without heir by Robert Derby. The manor and advowson remained to Walter son of Walter Derby who was seised of the manor in demesne as of fee tail, and seised of the advowson as of fee and by right. William brother of Walter son of Walter died without heir of his body, with Walter son of Walter still living, and Walter, son, continued in his estate for all his life and died so seised without heir of his body. The manor and advowson remained to Margaret and she was seised of the manor in demesne as of fee tail and of the advowson as of fee and by right. She continued in her estate for all her life, and died so seised without heir of her body. The manor and advowson remained to Thomas, still living, and they belong to him by right.
She died on 19 August last. Thomas Gulden is her kin and next heir, viz., son of Roger son of Roger son of Roger brother of Henry father of Alan father of Avice mother of Margaret, and aged 30 and more.
