Generation 10

Elyas de Richmond - He was living during the time of Edward III and Richard II (1327-1399) according to Thackeray genealogy.

His brother Richard married Elizabeth, daughter to Lord Burgh, and received Burgh Manor near Catterick and Richmond in Yorkshire in 1350.

BROUGH (Burgh, till 17th cent.) was held by Tor before the Conquest and by Enisan of Count Alan in 1086. (fn. 56) Enisan's successors, the lords of Constable Burton (q.v.), had a mesne lordship here. (fn. 57)

Among the tenants in 1286, when Brough was held in 'divers fees,' was evidently William de Burgh, who was party to an agreement concerning 7 oxgangs here in 1296 and was the principal tenant in 1301. (fn. 58)

He or his son William settled the manor in 1348 on himself in tail-male, with remainder to his daughter Elizabeth (fn. 59) wife of Richard de Richmond, whose heirs took the name of Burgh. (fn. 60)

They were succeeded by a son John who died in 1412. (fn. 61)

---

A second manor in Brough was held by the Marmion family till they exchanged it in 1372 with Richard de Richmond for land in East Tanfield. (fn. 71)
