William de Mowbray
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
William de Mowbray, 6th Baron of Thirsk, 4th Baron
Mowbray (c. 1173–c. 1224) was an Norman Lord and
English noble who was one of the twenty five executors of
the Magna Carta. He was described as being as small as a
dwarf but very generous and valiant.[1]

Family and early life
William was the eldest of the one daughter and three or four
sons of Nigel de Mowbray, by Mabel, thought to be
daughter of William de Patri, and grandson of Roger de
Mowbray.[2]
Career under Richard I
William appears to have been in the company of Richard I
in Speyer, Germany, on 20 November 1193 during
Richard's period of captivity on his return from Palestine.[3]
In 1194 he had livery of his lands. paying a relief of £100.
He was immediately called upon to pay a sum nearly as
large as his share of the scutage levied towards Richard's
ransom, for the payment of which he was one of the
hostages.[4] William was later a witness to Richard's treaty
with Baldwin of Flanders in 1197.[3]
Career under John
In 1215 Mowbray was prominent with other north-country barons in opposing King John. He was appointed
one of the twenty-five executors of the Magna Carta, and as such was specially named among those
excommunicated by Pope Innocent III. His youngest brother, Roger, has sometimes been reckoned as one of
the twenty-five, apparently by confusion with, or as a substitute for, Roger de Mumbezon. Roger died without
heirs about 1218, and William received his lands.[4][5]
Career under Henry III
In the First Barons' War, Mowbray supported Louis. Mowbray was taken prisoner in the Battle of Lincoln
(1217), and his estates bestowed upon William Marshal the younger; but he redeemed them by the surrender of
the lordship of Bensted in Surrey to Hubert de Burgh, before the general restoration in September of that
year.[4]
In January 1221, Mowbray assisted Hubert in driving his former co-executor, William of Aumâle, from his last
stronghold at Bytham in Lincolnshire.[4]
Benefactor, marriage and succession
William de Mowbray founded the chapel of St. Nicholas, with a chantry, at Thirsk, and was a benefactor of his
grandfather's foundations at Furness Abbey and Newburgh, where, on his death in Axholme about 1224, he was
buried.[4][3]
He married Avice, a daughter of William d'Aubigny, 3rd Earl of Arundel, of the elder branch of the d'Aubignys.
By her he had two sons, Nigel and Roger. The ‘Progenies Moubraiorum’ makes Nigel predecease his father,
and Nicolas and Courthope accept this date; but Dugdale adduces documentary evidence showing that he had
livery of his lands in 1223, and did not die (at Nantes) until 1228. As Nigel left no issue by his wife Mathilda or
Maud, daughter of Roger de Camvile, he was succeeded as sixth baron by his brother Roger II, who only came
of age in 1240, and died in 1266. This Roger's son, Roger III, was seventh baron (1266-1298) and father of
John I de Mowbray, eighth baron.[4]
There has been some speculation that de Mowbray was the inspiration for the character of Tyrion Lannister in
Game of Thrones.

Roger de Mowbray, 1st Baron Mowbray
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roger de Mowbray, 1st Baron Mowbray (1254–21 November 1297), was an English peer and soldier.

The son of another Roger de Mowbray, and grandson of William de Mowbray, he served in the Welsh and Gascon Wars. He was summoned to the Parliament of Simon de Montfort in 1265, but such summonses have later been declared void. However, in 1283 he was summoned to Parliament by King Edward I as Lord Mowbray.

De Mowbray married Rose, a daughter of Richard de Clare, 6th Earl of Gloucester. They had at least two children:

John, who would succeed his father to the barony
Alexander, who apparently took up residence in Scotland.

Roger married de Clare, Lady Rohese between 8 Jan 1270 and 7 Jan 1271 in Thirsk, Yorkshire, England. Rohese was born on 24 Oct 1252 in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, England; died in 1317 in England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
