Geoffrey de Longchamp

Geoffrey, son of Sir Hugh de Longchamp and Emma de St. Leger. Married Isabella Myners, daughter of Henry.

If Hugh Longchamp, senior, really gave Wilton to his son Hugh, it must have been from him that Henry Longchamp, senior, held as tenant till Hugh, junior, died some time before 1195. Emma St. Leger, his wife, had by 1195 already married Walter de Baskerville and died, for in the Pipe Roll of that year 3 Geoffrey Longchamp, son of Hugh, owed 25 marks to have seisin of the land of his mother Emma St. Leger, who had been the wife of Walter de Baskerville.

Geoffrey Longchamp (eldest son of Hugh, junior). Geoffrey Longchamp married Isabella Myners, one of the three coheiresses of Henry Myners of Westbury in Gloucestershire. William Myners 4 (held manor and advowson of Westbury temp. John). Henry Myners (son and heir, seised of said advowson). Geoffrey Longchamp =Isabella. Pagenda. Another sister.

He was one of the barons who compelled John to sign Magna Carta, 5 and after his death Isabella Longchamp gave her third share of the manor of Westbury to Hemy of Bath, by a fine dated 1235-6. 1 This tends to shew that there was no issue of the marriage, and the name Longchamp does not occur in the Gloucestershire Inquisitiones post Mortem from 1232—1300.
