About John de Meriet
- John de Meriet was the son of George de Meriet and his wife Isobel. Sadly George died when his son was only a few weeks old, so John's birthdate is known to be late October 1328 [from the Inquisition Post Mortem held in 1328].
- John married by 1245 to Eleanor Beauchamp & their son John de Meriet was born on the 4th May 1345/6 [established from his proof of being over 21 to claim his inheritance]
- Eleanor [de Beauchamp] his wife had died by 1361 when her brother John de Beauchamp died, leaving as his heir [Inquisition Post Mortem] his sister Cecily [de Beauchamp] Seymour & John de Meriet, minor son of his deceased sister Eleanor. [Incidentally, this evidence refutes the other purported marriages for Eleanor]
- By 1362, John has re-married to a wife named Matilda, as property deeds name her.
- John de Meriot's Inquisition Post Portem establishes that he died in Calais, France on the 2nd October 1369, leaving a widow Matilda & son and heir John de Meriet.

- Sir Walter Blount (died 1403), was a soldier and supporter of John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster. He later supported John's son and heir Henry Bolingbroke in his bid to become king Henry IV and in later battles against his enemies. At the Battle of Shrewsbury he served as the royal standard bearer, was mistaken for the king and killed in combat. ....
- Blount was almost certainly the son of Sir John Blount of Sodington, by his second wife, Eleanor Beauchamp, widow of Sir John Meriet. ....
