• Notes

  Sir John de Hastings, 1st Lord Hastings was born on 6 May 1262. He was the son of Sir Henry de Hastings and Joan de Cauntelo. He married, firstly, Isabel de Valence, daughter of William de Valence, Earl of Pembroke, in 1275. He married, secondly, Isabel le Despenser, daughter of Hugh le Despenser, 1st and last Earl of Winchester and Isabella de Beauchamp. He succeeded as the Lord Abergavenny [Feudal] on 18 October 1273. In 1290 he was one of three competitors for the crown of Scotland, through his mother. He was created 1st Lord Hastings [England by writ] on 24 June 1295, although he was first called to Parliament on 29 May 1290, however this is not considered to be a valid Parliament for the purposes of becoming a peer. He held the office of Lieutenant and Seneschal of Gascony in 1302. He fought from the 1290s in the Scottish, Irish and French wars of King Edward I and held the offices of Seneschal of Gascony and Lieutenant of Aquitaine simultaneously. In 1290 he had unsuccessfully contested the crown of the Kingdom of Scotland as grandson of Ada, third daughter of David of Scotland, Earl of Huntingdon, who was a grandson of King David I of Scotland. Also in 1290 he was summoned to the English Parliament as Lord Hastings,[5] which created him a peer. In February 1300/1 he had licence to crenellate his manor and town of Fillongley in Warwickshire.[2] He signed and sealed the Barons' Letter of 1301 to Pope Boniface VIII, protesting against papal interference in Scottish affairs. He died on 10 February 1312/13 at age 50. Children of Sir John de Hastings, 1st Lord Hastings and Isabel de Valence 1. Elizabeth de Hastings 2. William de Hastings 3.
