• The first mention of this name and family occurs shortly after the decease of King RICHARD I , when his brother JOHN, Earl of Moreton, to clear his own way to the throne, employed Peter de Mauley, a Poictovin, his esquire, to murder his nephew, Prince Arthur of Britanny, and in reward of the foul deed, gave to the said
• PETER DE MAULEY, in marriage, Isabel, dau. of Robert de Turnham, and heiress of the Barony of Mulgrave. This Peter, throughout the whole reign of King John, adhering to his royal master, obtained considerable grants from the crown, and was esteemed amongst the evil advisers of the king. In the height of The baronial war, most of the prisoners of rank were committed to his custody, and he was constituted (18th JOHN), sheriff of the cos. of Dorset and Somerset. In the 4th HENRY III., upon the coronation of that monarch, Peter de Mauley had summons to assist thereat, and to bring with him the regalia, then in his custody at Corfe Castle, which had been entrusted to him by King JOHN; and the next year, being again sheriff of the cos. Somerset and Dorset, he delivered up the castle of Corfe to the king, with Alianore, the king's kinswoman, and Isabel, sister to the King of Scots as well as all the jewels, military engines, and ammunition there, which the late monarch had formerly commit to his custody. Soon after this, he was made governor of Sherburne Castle, co. Dorset, and dying in 1221, was s. by his son,
• PETER DE MAULEY, who giving 100 marks for his relief, had livery of his lands. Amongst the causes of discontent avowed by Richard Mureschall in his contest with HENRY III. was, that the king by the advice of foreigners, had dispossessed Gilbert Basset, a great baron of the time, of the manor of Nether-Haven, co. Wilts, and conferred it upon this Peter de Mauley. The king, nevertheless, continuing his favour to Peter, constituted him govenor of the castle of Devizes, and the next year (20th HENRY III..) made him sheriff of Northamptonshire. Moreover, in 1239, he was one of the godfathers, at the baptismal font to Prince Edward (the king's eldest son), and in 1241 he accompanied William de Fortibus, Earl of Albemarle, and divers other noble persons to the Holy Land. This feudal lord m. Joane, dau. of Peter de Brus, of Skelton, and d. in 1242. Upon his decease Gerard le Grue paid 500 marks for the ferme of his lands, and had the custody of the castle of Mulgrave; maintaining his widow with necessaries, keeping the buildings in repair, and not committing waste in the woods. Peter de Mauley was s. by his son,
• PETER DE MAULEY (commonly called the 3rd), who doing his homage in the 31st HENRY III., had livery of his lands. ln the 42nd of the same reign, the Scots having made a prisoner of their King ALEXANDER III. (son-in-law of the English monarch), Peter de Mauley received summons with the other northern barons to fit himself with horse and arms for the relief of the Scottish prince. He m. Nichola, dau. of Gilbert de Gant, son of Gilbert, Earl of Lincoln, and had issue,
  • PETER, his successor.
  • Edmund, a very eminent person in the reign of EDWARD I and II., and greatly distinguished in the Scottish wars. He had a grant of the manor of Seton. co. York. He was successively governor of the castle of Bridgenorth, of the town and castle of Bristol, and the castle of Cockermouth. He fell at the battle of Banoockburn, and dying s.p., his estates passed to his nephew,
  • Peter de Mauley.
• He was s. at his decease by his elder son,
• PETER DE MAULEY (called the 4th), who, in the 7th EDWARD I., doing his homage, and paying £100 for his relief, had livery of all his lands, which he held of the king in capite by barony of the inheritance of William Fossard (whose grand-dau. and heir, Isabel de Turnham, was wife of the first Peter de Mauley). This feudal lord having been engaged in the Welsh and Scottish wars, was summoned to parliament as a Baron by King EDWARD I., 23 June, 1295, and he had regular summons from that period to 12 December, 1309. In the 25th EDWARD I. his lordship was in the expedition then made into Gascony, and in consideration of his good services there, obtained from the king a grant of the marriage of Thomas, the son and heir of Thomas de Multon, of Gillesland, deceased. For several years after this he was actively employed in the warfare of Scotland. His lordship m. Eleanor, dau. of Thomas, Lord Furnival, and dying in 1310, was s. by his son,
• SIR PETER DE MAULEY, 2nd baron, summoned to parliament from 19 December, 1311, to 15 March, 1354. This nobleman was for several years actively engaged In the wars of Scotland, and was a commander at the battle of Durham (20th EDWARD III.), wherein the Scots, under their king, DAVID BRUS, sustained so signal a defeat, the monarch himself being made prisoner. His lordship m. Margaret, dau. of Robert, Lord Clifford, and dying In 1355 waa s. by his son,
• PETER DE MAULEY, 3rd baron, summoned to parliament from 20 September, 1355, to 7 January, 1383. This nobleman, in the 30th EDWARD III., shared in the glorious victory of Poictiers, and in three years afterwards he was in the expedition then made in Gascony. In the 41st of the same reign he was joined in commission with the bishop of Durham, Henry, Lord Percy, and others, for guarding the marches of Scotland ; and again, in the 3rd RICHARD II., with the Earl of Northumberland. His lordship m. 1st, in the 31st EDWARD III., Elizabeth, widow of John, Lord Darcy, and dau. and heir of Nicholas, Lord Meinill, without license, for which office he paid a fine of £100, and obtained pardon.

  • PETER, successor to his grandfather.
  • Constance, m. 1st, William Fairfax, s. p., and 2ndly. Sir John Bigot, ancestor by her of the Bigots of Moulgrave.
  • Elizabeth, m. to George Salvaine, Esq. "The present heir-general of the said Elizabeth Salvaine" (we quote COURTHOPE's Historic Peerage), "and consequently one of the co-heirs of the barony is Charles-Frederick-Ashley-Cooper Ponsonby, Lord de Mauley, son of William-Francis Spencer Ponsonby, Lord de Mauley, by Lady Barbara. dau. and sole heir of Anthony, 5th Earl of Shaftesbury, by Barbara, his wife, dau. and heir of Sir John Webb.

• PETER DE MAULEY, 4th baron, who making proof of . his age in the 22nd RICHARD II., had livery of the lands of his inheritance, as well as those derived from his grandfather, as from Thomas, his uncle. This nobleman was made a knight of the Bath at the coronation of King HENRY IV., and was summoned to parliament from 18 August, 1399, to 12 August, 1415. His lordship m. the Lady Maud Nevil, dau. of Ralph, Earl of Westmoreland, but d. in 1415, s. p., when his sisters (refer to

In the distribution of the Mauley estates, Leland says, "Bigot had the castle of Maugreve, (Mulgrave), with eight tounelettes therabout the se cost longging to it, whereof Seton thereby was one. Saulwyne had, for his part, the Barony of Eggeston on Eske, not far from Whitby; also Lokington-Barugh, not far from Watton-on-hull ryver, Nesseark, and the lordship of Doncaster." _______________________

• .... Not all his time was spent abroad, however, and by September 1379 he had become friendly with Peter, 4th Lord Mauley, one of the wardens of the east march, for whom he then offered securities as the farmer of certain estates held by the Crown. Mauley died in March 1383, not long before Godard set out for Scotland in the retinue of John of Gaunt, from whom he probably received his knighthood. On his return he was fortunate enough to secure the hand of Mauley’s widow, Constance, whose share of her husband’s estates, together with her own impressive patrimony, brought him considerable wealth and influence. A royal pardon excusing the couple from marrying without first being granted the necessary licence was entered on the patent rolls in December 1384, from which date Sir John’s finances began rapidly and dramatically to improve. It was, indeed, through his wife and her family, the Suttons, that he established himself in a prominent position .... etc.

• 1.CCR, 1399-1402, p. 310; CPR, 1399-1401, p. 461; Test. Ebor. ii. 16-17, 23-25, G. Poulson, Holderness, ii. 197-8, states that Sir Robert Hilton the elder was at some point married to a Joan Constable, but he has obviously confused father and son. Sir Robert's first wife was called Isabel (CP25(1)143/145), while his second, whom he married in, or just before, 1395, was Constance, daughter of Thomas, 3rd Lord Sutton, and widow of both Peter, 4th Lord Mauley (d.1383), and Sir John Godard (CPR, 1391-6, pp. 654-5, where her name is mistakenly given as Margaret, hence some of the confusion). Poulson is also wrong in describing Denise and Maud Hilton as the MP's aunts: they were in fact his sisters. It is important to distinguish Hilton from his distant kinsman and namesake, Sir Robert Hilton of Hilton near Wearmouth (c.1386-1448), de jure 6th Lord Hilton. When necessary, contemporaries referred to the latter as 'the younger' (CFR, xiii. 186, 218; CPR, 1408-13, p. 318).
