  • In 1425 the Laxton property passed to Thomas de Bekering's daughter Alice, who had married Sir Thomas Rempston, of Bingham, Notts. Sir Thomas was a soldier, who went to France in 1415, under Henry V, and was at the siege of Harfleur and the Battle of Agincourt. He was with Sir John Fastolf at the Battle of the Herrings in 1429, and was taken prisoner by the French under Joan of Arc, but a large ransom was arranged for him by the English Parliament. After the defeat of the English and the end of the Hundred Years War, Sir Thomas returned to England, where he supported the Yorkist cause at the beginning of the Wars of the Roses, and died in 1458.
  • Once more the property passed in the female line, Sir Thomas Rempston leaving three daughters, Elizabeth, wife of John Cheyne, Isabel, wife of Sir Brian Stapledon, and Margaret, wife of Richard Bingham. Elizabeth Cheyne had the Laxton part of Sir Thomas's property, and in 1515 it passed to her granddaughter, another Elizabeth Cheyne, who married the son of Lord Vaux of Harrowden. Some time in the sixteenth century Lord Vaux sold the Laxton property to Sir Thomas Broughton, who had married Mary Roos, sister of Peter Roos, the lord of the chief manor. When his son, Gilbert Roos, sold the manor to the Marquis of Buckingham, he reserved about 100 acres for his cousin Mr. Peter Broughton. These lands remained with the Broughton family until the eighteenth century, when they were bought by the Earl of Scarborough, of Rufford. In 1867 Earl Manvers acquired the property, in exchange for land in the parish of Eakring. _____________________
