Source: A Baronial Family in Medieval England: The Clares, 1217-1314, Michael Altschul, The Johns Hopkins Press, Baltimore, 1965. From p 92: "On July 15, 1262, the day after the king sailed to France, Earl Richard de Clare died. Two weeks later he was buried at Tewkesbury Abbey The earl had not played a conspicuous role in the baronial movement since the settlement of 1261; he had been in ill health for some months before his death, and rumors circulated that he had been poisoned. [Footnote by Altschul: "E.g., Dunstable, p. 219' *Annales Cambriae*, pp. 99-100, where "Gilbert" is wrongly given for "Richard." These chronicles have probably confused the earl's natural death with the alleged poison plot of 1258."]" [Was Richard maybe poisoned at the instigation of Simon de Montfort or some of his allies?] Henry had settled with the rebellious barons in 1261 (p 92). Richard de Clare had at first sided with the barons in the movement which began in the summer of 1258 or thereabouts (p 82-87), but appears to have withdrawn support shortly after December 1258 (p 87). He Kilkenny Acceded: 1243. 6th Earl of Hertford. He and Meggotta de Burgh married clandestinely & were very much in love by all accounts. He was 2nd Earl of Gloucester. Lord of Usk, Kilkenny. He wanted the Oxford Provisions to apply to the King only, not to the Barons. He appears to have withdrawn support shortly after December 1258. He founded (1248) Clare Priory, the first house of Austin Friars in England. He was in 1252 sent to Scotland to check the imprisonment of Margaret, Henry III's daughter. He in May 1252 spoke for non-censure of Simon de Montfort at latter's Gascony trial. In Jul 1258 he became sicken after the banquet thrown by defeated de Lusignans. |
| Note | Richard was the most powerful English noble of his time Born August 4th, 1222 to Isabel Marshal and Gilbert de Clare, 5th Earl of Hertford and 6th Earl of Clare, he was the 5th Earl of Gloucester, the 6th Earl of Hertford and the 7th and 8th Earl and Lord of Clare, inheriting these titles of Hertford and Gloucester from the death of his father in October 1230. He went on to hold estates in more than 20 English counties, including the lordship of Tewkesbury, wealthy manors in Gloucester, and the great marcher lordship of Glamorgan. He acquired the Kilkenny estates in Ireland and the lordship of Usk and Caerleon in south Wales, making him the greatest lord in south Wales; in Glamorgan, especially, he was almost an independent prince As he was just an 8-year old child at the time of his fathers' death, he was made the ward of Hubert de Burgh. In 1243, he secretly married Hubert's daughter, Margaret; King Henry III frowned upon this marriage, and they were later divorced Richard refused to help King Henry III on the French expedition of 1253 but was with him afterward at Paris. Thereafter he went on a diplomatic errand to Scotland and was sent to Germany to work among the princes for the election of his stepfather, Richard, Earl of Cornwall, as king of the Romans About 1258 Gloucester became a leader of the barons in their resistance to the king, and Richard was prominent during the proceedings that followed the Mad Parliament at Oxford in 1258. In 1259, however, he quarreled with Simon de Montfort, Earl of Leicester; the dispute, begun in England, was renewed in France, and he was again in the confidence of the king. This attitude, too, was only temporary, and in 1261 Gloucester and Montfort were again working in concord Richard was an important member of Henry III's court. There were at least two attempts on Richard's life. The first occurred when his chief steward, Walter de Scotenay, poisoned Richard and his brother, William. William died but Richard survived despite losing all of his hair and his fingernails The second attempt succeeded on July 14, 1262. Richard, Baldwin, the Earl of Devon, and others were poisoned at the table of Peter de Savoy Sources: > British Kings and Queens by Mike Ashley, Carroll and Graf Pub., NY 1998. > Last of the Norman Invasions, by Michael Greaney, Military History, Dec. 1998. > Encyclopedia Britannica Online, article titled "Gloucester,Richard de Clare" Note: the date of his fathers' death is in question / shown as between 1230 and 1240, his children drove an estimate as 25 Oct 1239 ---------- 5th Earl of Gloucester. Royal servant. He succeeded his father Gilbert de Clare in 1230 at the age of eight; through his mother he inherited a share of William Marshal's estates, including Kilkenny in Ireland. Matthew Paris criticized his "base avarice" but praised his eloquence and knowledge of law. His rank, wealth and ability meant he was often employed on embassies abroad, perhaps the most delicate being when sent to Edinburgh in 1255 to free Henry III's daughter Margaret and her husband, the young King Alexander III, from the control of a Scottish court faction. After 1258 he picked his own way in quarrels between King and Simon de Montfort, dying before they degenerated into civil war Source: Who's Who in British History, page 182. Collins & Brown. London, England. 2000 -------- Died at Ashenfield Manor, Waltham, Canterbury and is buried at Tewkesbury Abbey, Gloucester Earl of Hertford. Usk; Kilkenny. "Weis Ancestral Roots" (54: 30), (63: 29) and Earl of Gloucester and Hertford With the next generation, the Clare family reached he height of its prominence in the thirteenth century. Earl Richard de Clare was twice married, secretly in 1232 to Meggotta, daughter of the justiciar Hubert de Burgh, who had Richard's custody during his minority after 1230, and in 1237 to Maud, daughter of John de Lacy, earl of Lincoln (d. 1240) There was no issue by the ill-fated first marriage, but by Maud de Lacy Richard had three sons and four daughters. Negotiations for the second marriage [of Richard] began even before Megotta de Burgh's death in November, 1237 As early as 1236, before the original match was publicly revealed, King Henry had entertained notions of marrying the heir to one of his French relatives The plan apparently fell through, perhaps when news of the first marriage came out In the fall of 1237, while Meggotta was still alive, John de Lacy, earl of Lincoln, offered 5,000 marks, a sum roughly equivalent to the gross annual value of the Clare inheritance, to have Richard's marriage for his own daughter Maud. The earl was undoubtedly moved by many of the same considerations that had prompted the wife of Hubert de Burgh, although he had no need to resort to the drastic actions she had taken in 1232. He was the highest, and perhaps the only, bidder, but Henry still desired to marry Richard to a foreign kinsman Through the efforts of his brother Richard of Cornwall, the stepfather of the young heir, a compromise was effected. On October 26, 1237, Henry offered the marriage to Hugh de Lusignan, count of La Marche, for one of his daughters, with the proviso that if the count did not agree to the proposal by the following January, the earl of Lincoln could have it for 3,000 marks. Hugh de Lusignan did not agree, and on January 25, 1238, Richard de Clare was married to Maud de Lacy By the time of his second marriage, Richard was almost sixteen. He was to remain a ward of the king until 1243, when he came of age and was formally granted seisin of his inheritance. His fortunes shed a grim light on the political and financial manipulations of the rights of wardship and marriage, and on the impact of those rights on national politics. His own attitudes and personal feelings never emerge during this entire period As Powicke has remarked, "one would like to know how Richard de Clare felt about it all." On July 15, 1262, the day after the king sailed to France, Earl Richard de Clare died. Two weeks later he was buried at Tewkesbury Abbey. The earl had not played a conspicuous role in the baronial movement since the settlement of 1261; he had been in ill health for some months before his death, and rumors circulated that he had been poisoned. [Footnote by Altschul: "E.g., Dunstable, p. 219' *Annales Cambriae*, pp. 99-100, where "Gilbert" is wrongly given for "Richard." These chronicles have probably confused the earl's natural death with the alleged poison plot of 1258. Was Richard maybe poisoned at the instigation of Simon de Montfort or some of his allies? Henry had settled with the rebellious barons in 1261 (p 92). Richard de Clare had at first sided with the barons in the antiroyalist movement which began in the summer of 1258 or thereabouts (p 82-87), but appears to have withdrawn support shortly after December 1258 (p 87). = = = = = = = = = = = Of Earl Richard's four daughters, three married well, the fourth, Eglentina, dying in infancy in 1257 The eldest, Isabel, born in 1240, was married in June 1258 to an important nobleman, William, marquis de Montferrat. Earl Richard paid the marquis 4,000 marks to secure the marriage, and allowed him a choice of brides in addition. Since Isabel was about eighteen and her surviving sisters each less than eight years old, the choice must have been easy. They were married at Lyons, and Isabel seems never to have returned to England Montferrat was a lordship in northern Italy, technically a member of the Empire but subject to Provencal and Angevin influences. The marquis was a prominent figure on the Ghibelline side in thirteenth century Mediterranean politics, but nothing further is known of Isabel. She probably died sometime before 1271, since the marquis married a daughter of King Alfonso X of Castile in that year. [See notes for the 2nd daughter, Margaret] The third daughter, Rohese, born in 1252, was married in 1270 to a member of the lesser baronage, Roger de Mowbray, lord of the Yorkshire barony of Thirsk (d. 1297) Again, the marriage was arranged by her mother, the dowager Countess Maud, and her brother Bogo Michael Altschul, *A Baronial Family in Medieval England: The Clares,1217-1314*, Baltimore MD (Johns Hopkins Press) 1965. pp 34-37 & 62-63 & 92. | |

| Note | John Mason (c.1600-1672) was an English Army Major who immigrated to New England in 1632; he is a part of founding Norwich, Connecticut Within five years he had joined those moving west from the Massachusetts Bay Colony to the nascent settlements along the Connecticut River that would become the Connecticut Colony. Tensions there rose between the settlers and the dominant tribe in the area, the Pequots, ultimately leading to bloodshed. After some English settlers were found dead, the Connecticut Colony appointed Mason to lead an expedition against the Pequot stronghold in Mystic, Connecticut. The result is known as the Mystic Massacre, and it was the major engagement of the Pequot War in 1636-1637, which virtually destroyed the Pequot tribe After the war, Mason became Deputy Governor of Connecticut. He and a number of others were instrumental in the founding of Norwich, Connecticut, where he died in 1672 There is a statue of Major John Mason in the Palisado Green in Windsor, Connecticut, originally placed at the intersection of Pequot Avenue and Clift Street in Mystic, Connecticut near what was thought to be one of the original Pequot forts. The statue remained there for 103 years until a commission chartered by the town of Groton, Connecticut to study the sensitivity and appropriateness of the statues location voted to have it relocated. The State then stepped in and in 1993 relocated the statue to its current setting An article about the work of the committee can be found at http://archnet.asu.edu/archives/ethno/Courant/day5.htm Early life ----- Born in England where he became an officer in the English army. Mason served as a lieutenant under Sir Thomas Fairfax. In 1632 Mason immigrated to America and settled in Dorchester, Massachusetts where he represented that village in the General Court In 1635 he moved to what would become Windsor, Connecticut, in company with the Reverend John Warham, Henry Wolcott, and others, prominent settlers of the town. He was elected an assistant or magistrate of the Connecticut Colony from Windsor in 1642 [edit] Pequot War On 1 May 1637, the Connecticut General Court raised a force of 90 men to be under the command of Captain John Mason for an offensive war against the Pequot. Mason commanded the successful expedition against the Pequot Indians, when he and his ninety men immortalized themselves in overthrowing and destroying the prestige and power of the Pequots and their fort near Mystic River, on the Groton side. This event became known as the Mystic massacre. The event is commemorated by a boulder monument that formally was on Mystic Hill upon which the pedestal of a life size statue of Major Mason drawing his sword. This represented the moment when he heard the war-whoop of "Owanux", "Owanux", by the Indians in their fort He took a company of Englishmen up the river and rescued two English maids during this war John removed his family to Old Saybrook, Middlesex County, Connecticut in 1647.
