- 125. THE PEVERELLS OF DORSET. Hutchins, in his History of Dorset, mentions two families named Peverell, one of Bradford Peverell, the other of Newton Peverell, the progenitor of the two families being "John Peverel, de com. Dorset., 2 Edw. I, 1273," but further back he does not trace the pedigree, though he suggests a Robert and Andrew, about whose connection with the family he seems uncertain.
- .... etc.
- ROBERT PEVERELL, who is found in the Rotuli Chartari in the first year of King John [1199-1200], "Robertus Peverell, Bradford. 10 li. terr'." He may have been the son of Robert Peverell of Sussex, of the Pipe Rolls of 7 Henry II. In the 'Excerpta Rotuli Finium,' under date of 28 Sept., 11. Henry III [1227], Andrew Peverell is entered as paying a fine for lands held by his father, Robert, in Blachinton [Sussex], and Berton [Southampton]. These manors were afterwards held by the Peverells of Newton Peverell. We may presume that 1227 was the date of the death of this Robert, as Andrew is described as heir.
- ANDREW PEVERELL, perhaps the same Andrew who appears on the Scutage Rolls, 6 Henry III [1221-2.] Hutchins mentions that he was summoned to the wars against France, 26 Henry III [1241-2], but he does not appear to have performed military service in person, as under date of 24 August, 26 Henry III [1242], the king commanded to be paid "to our beloved and faithful Andrew Peverel 100 s., for which he made a fine with us for his passage, and which he paid at our Exchequer, because the same Andrew, by our command, sent, in lieu of himself, a certain knight for our service." [Issue Rolls]. There is an Andrew Peverel in a list added to a writ summoning "faithful nobles to London" in 45 Henry III [1260-61.] Hutchins states that in 41 Henry III
- Pg.87
- [1256-57] Andrew Peverell held Newton with Chedington and Chelwere. In the same year these three places, with Mavesbrig are returned in an Inquisition Post mortem as belonging to Agnes Peverel.
- JOHN PEVERELL, the first named in the pedigree drawn up by Hutchins, is doubtless the same as the one found in the Rotuli Hundredorum, [1273-74]. Under Dorset is recorded "Hund' Sci' Georg'. Itm Johes Pev'el tenet Bradeford de Rege p. feodum uni militis.." There was in 1278 a John Peverel of Sussex, who could not take upon himself the order of knighthood because he had not found any manucaptors ; though married, he was childless. There were others of the name summoned for military service in 1277, 1300, and 1301, but it is not possible to absolutely identify him with all of these. According to Hutchins this John Peverell had two sons, the elder, John, founded the family of Bradford Peverell, and the other, Thomas, was the ancestor of the Newton Peverell branch.
- JOHN PEVERELL, OF BRADFORD PEVERELL, was attached to his name by Hutchins the date 1310 ; it is also stated that his wife's name was Isabella. In 1324-25 this John gave one messuage and 27 acres of land in Little Windsor and also land in Charmouth to the Abbot and Convent of Ford, and the same year, according to the Inquisitiones ad quod damnum, he appeared for that Abbot concerning these and other lands. In the Placitorum Abbreviatio under Dorset, 1303, John Peverell is mentioned in connection with "fossati sui apud Bradeford". We find in the Parliamentary Writs that he was appointed conservator of the peace for Dorset, and raised levies. He was knight of the Shire in 1316, 1320, 1321, 1322, 1324, and 1327. In 1322 he was entered on the roll of the Battle of Boroughbridge as "Sire John Peverel". His armorial bearings are there recorded as "gerounee dargent & de gules." He is described at knight, as early as 1316.
- RICHARD PEVERELL, his son. Hutchins assigns to him the year 8 Edw. III, [1334-35], and says he held half a fee at Bradford Peverell, 20 Edw. III, [1345-47].
- Concerning the rest of this branch of the family I can add nothing to Hutchins's account until we come down to
- WILLIAM PEVERELL, of Burdolston, 8 Henry VIII, [1516-17] His wife was Jane, daughter of Philip Baskerville, of Sherborne, Dorset. She survived her first husband, and married Sir John Mervyn of Fountel Gifford, whose first wife she became. She was buried at Fountel. William Peverell had an only daughter and heiress,
- JANE PEVERELL, who married, first, Nicholas Meggs of Downham. By him she had a son, Lawrence Meggs. Bradford Pev-
- Pg.88
- erell was held by his descendants until 1770. Although Hutchins says she died in 1578, and that Nicholas Meggs died 'circa 1579,' thus making her predecease her husband, he states in his account of the Churchills that Roger Churchill, of Catherstone, married Jane, daughter of William Peverell, and widow of Nicholas Meggs. This latter statement is no doubt correct, as we find in the Chancery Proceedings of the time of Queen Elizabeth that "Joan Churchill, widow," had a suit brought against her by Thomas Lye, concerning damage to lands, and title deeds of lands held of the manor of Muckeford, in the parish of Bradford Peverell, and a tenement in Grymeston, held in fee. The manor of Muckeford had been held by the Peverells of Bradford Peverell, and seems with other lands, to have passed on the death of Robert Buller, the grandson of John Peverell of Bradford, to the Peverells of Burdolston.

- But to return to the younger son of John Peverell of 1273.
- THOMAS PEVERELL, OF NEWTON PEVERELL, In 3 Edw. III [1274-75], he held "the third part of a knight's fee in his manor of Blecchinton" [Rotuli Hundredorm]. In Jn., 1287, he--here called Thomas Peverell, of Berton--was appointed conservator of the peace in Co. Southampton, and the following month was 'amoved' from that office "because of infimities," [Parl.Writs], but he appears to have survived many years, as the inquisition on his death was not taken until 22 Jan., 1305, when he was found seized of Blachynton maner and Alfricheston tent. [Sussex], Berton maner [Southampton], Niewton maner and Burlebury clausam [Dorset], Ryp maner, Chalvyngton villa, Saperton unum messuage', Sonntyngs maner, Iewhurst maner [Surrey--mis-print for Sussex] ; and that his heir was named Andrew. Hutchins says that at the time of his death he held Newton of Ralph Gorges in socage. He had two contemporaries of the same names, Thomas Peverell, of Manesbrigg, Southampton, and Thomas Peverell, of Sampford Peverell, Devon, from whom it is not possible always to distinguish him.
- Pg.103
- ANDREW PEVERELL, who, according to the inquisition on his father's death in 1305, was aged 34, is mentioned in the Parliamentary Writs as of Dorset and Southampton. He 'proffers the service of one knight's fee and an half performed by three 'Servientes' with three barded horses" in 1310. He was conservator of peace in Sussex in 1315, and in the following year he was certified as "Lord of the Township of Berton, Southampton, and one of the Lords of Windham, Ewhurst, Ripe, and Sutton in Sussex." In 1319 he was one of the Assessors and Collectors in Sussex of the 18th and 12th granted in the Parliament of York, he was constantly called on for military service and to raise levies, he was Justice of Assize in 1319-20, he was Knight of the Shire in 1324, and was the same year appointed to levy archers and to act on the Commission of Array, but was "ill and feeble of body and unable to act in the above." He however lived three years longer, the date of his Inquisition post mortem being 2 Edw. III [1328-29]. Beside the possessions of which his father was seized, he had "La Bere, 6oac., and Lytchet, 5oac." in Dorset, as well as Ecsete, Shirynton, and Hethfeld in Sussex. His wife was Alice, whose Inquisition post mortem was taken 10 Edw. III [1336-37]. They had a son,
- ANDREW PEVERELL, KNIGHT. In the first edition of Hutchins he is said to have been 24 years old at the time of his father's death. In 15 Edw. III [1341-42], he was called upon to raise archers [Inquis. ad quod damnum]. Probably it is he and his son who are mentioned in 1365-66 in the Antient Kalendars and Inventories as "Andre Peverel and Andre filius ejus, Milites." An Inquisition Post mortem on Andrew Peverell, chevalier, is dated 49 Edw. III [1375-76]. He was seized of the lands before mentioned, including "Bere juxta Canford and Newton juxta Sturminstre," besides Hallond in Sussex. His widow,
- KATHERINE, survived him two years. The Inquisition on her death was taken 51 Edw. III [1377-78]. In it are mentioned Bere and Newton with several of her late husband's estates, and in addition Silmeston, Saxton, and Lewes prior in Sussex.
- We now come to a point that is not quite clear. Hutchins says Andrew had two daughters and coheiresses, one married to Fitzherbert, and the other to Brocas, From the Antient Kalendars above quoted it would appear that he had a son Andrew. The three Andrews in direct succession make it uncertain to whom the coheiresses were sistersm though it is natural to suppose that the third Andrew is referred to. In the Rotulorum Originalium, in connection with the Peverell estates, we find entered several time under date of 1375-76, 'Edmundo Firzherberd militi filio Reginaldi filio Lucie unius soroum Andre Peverel militis defuncti et Johanni Brocas filio Margarete filie Alesie alterius sororum eiusdem Andree." From this it does not appear who Alice Peverell
- Pg.104
- married, but there is reason to suppose that her daughter, Margaret married Oliver Brocas. Lucy's husband and son may both have been named Reginald. At all events the property passed into the hads of Fitzherbert and Brocas, and it is possible that "Edmundus Fitzherberd Chevalier et Johanna uxor ejus" had an only daughter Alice, wife of Thomas West, Chevalier, into whose hads certain of the lands passed.
