Knight, of Hartland, Ilsington, etc., Devon, Corton Dinham and Sandford Orcas, Somerset, Constable of Exeter and Taunton Castles, Keeper of Lundy Isle, son and heir of Geoffrey de Dynham, Knt., of Hartland, Devon. He was born about 1234 (aged 24 in 1258). They had two sons, Josce, Knt., and Geoffrey. Oliver was pardoned for non-observance of the Provisions of Oxford 28 March 1264. In 1265 he supported the Kings cause in the West against the adherents of Simon de Montfort. The same year he presented to the church of Corton Dinham, Somerset. He took possession of Hartland Abbey during a voidance about 1272, when the Bishop of Exeter was absent abroad, and extorted large sums of money from the canons. He bought the manors of Nutwell and Harpwell, Devon from Marmoutier Abbey in 1272/3. He was in the army of Wales in 1277 and 1282. He presented to the church of Waddesdon, Buckinghamshire 13 March 1277. He was summoned to attend the king at Shrewsbury 28 June 1283. In 1286 he was granted a fair at Hartland, Devon. His wife, Isabel, died testate 11 August, year uncertain, sometime before 7 Jan. 1290/1. He was summoned to Parliament from 24 June 1295 to 26 August 1296, by writs directed Olivero de Dynham or Dynaunt, whereby he is held to have become Lord Dinham. SIR OLIVER DE DINHAM, Lord Dinham, died 26 Feb. 1298/9. At the time of his death, he held four manors in Devon, three in Cornwall, and one in Somerset. He and his wife, Isabel, were buried in the Church of the Black Friars, Exeter, Devon.
Wives of Oliver Dinham
If Joanna, wife of Roger Carminow, was indeed the daughter of Oliver Dinham (see discussion on her profile), then Oliver had a first wife in the 1260s, as we would expect for an adult lord of a manor.

In summary, I find no evidence that Sir Oliver de Dynham had an earlier marriage than his documented marriage to Isabel de Vere. I find that Sir Oliver de Dynham's grandson, John Dynham, was styled kinsman by Isabel de Vere's grandson, Hugh de Courtenay. I conclude therefore that Sir Oliver de Dynham's son, Josce, was the child of Isabel de Vere. Had another relationship existed between these parties existed, then Sir Oliver de Dynham and Isabel de Vere would themselves likely have had to obtain a dispensation for marriage, they being related through affinity, rather than kindred.
