Biography

From “Did Elizabeth Eure marry thrice?” (Discussion at SGM, Oct 15, 2015)
< GoogleGroups >

RALPH EURE, Knt., of Witton (in Weardale), Durham, married KATHERINE ATON (desc. King William the Conqueror) [see EURE 8].

9. ROBERT EURE, Esq., of Bradley and Kimblesworth, Durham, Sheriff and Escheator of Durham and Sadberge, 1420-36, and, in right of his wife, of Breedon, Leicestershire, younger son.

He married before 1422 ELIZABETH MALLORY, daughter of Thomas Mallory, Knt., by Joan, daughter and heiress of Thomas Talbot. She was born about 1401 (aged 11 in 1412).

They had one son, Robert, Esq., and one daughter, Elizabeth.

In 1422 William Eure, Knt., Robert Eure, Esq., and William Paxton, clerk, executor of Ralph Eure, Knt. sued Nicholas Trase, of New Malton, Yorkshire, tanner, and another in the Court of Common Pleas regarding a debt of £20. In 1432 he was granted a license to fortify his manor of Bradley, Durham. Robert Eure, Esq., of Bradley, Durham and his son and heir, Robert, acting as feoffees of William Bulmer, Knt., presented to the church of Bulmer, Yorkshire 24 July 1468.

ROBERT EURE, Esq., died 3 Feb. 1480. In the period, 1480-83, Ralph Constable and Anne his wife, William Constable and Isabel his wife, and Henry Thwaytes and Ellen his wife, daughters of Robert, son of Elizabeth Ivers [Eure], sued Ralph Ivers in Chancery regarding the detention of deeds relating to the manor of Breedon, Leicestershire.

Notes

from 22 June 1999 SGM post of Paul Reed:

"As to the Evers/Eure descendants, Farnham (p. 18) cites de banco roll 807 for a suit involving Robert Evers, the elder, over land, etc., in Breedon. "Robert Evers comes and says that he long ago took to wife Elizabeth Malory and he and Elizabeth were seised, as in right of Elizabeth, of the said tenements, the reversion of which should descend to Robert, son of the said Robert and Elizabeth [dated Hilary 2 Edward IV (1463)]. The IPM of Robert Evere, taken at Leicester on 20 April 1480, found he died 3 Feb. 19 Edward IV, seised of Bredon by the courtesy of England after the death of Elizabeth, his wife. His granddaughters, Anne Constable, aged 17, Isabel Constable, aged 15 1/2, and Elena Thwaites, aged 13, are his next heirs, daughters of Robert Evere, deceased, son and heir of the said Robert Evere named in this writ." In understand some of these relationships are also covered in CP II: 418.

It appears that we have two unrelated people (Robert Eure and Joan Stapleton) referring to a son and daughter respectively and their granddaughters by that child and the grandchildren are the same people.

The only sense I can make of it is :

1. Robert Eure d 3 Feb 1480 = Elizabeth Mallory
2. Robert Eure = Ellen Ingleby (she m2. Sir John Constable)
3 (a) Anne Eure b 1463 = Ralph Constable
3 (b) Isabel Eure b 1464= William Constable
3 (c) Ellen Eure b 1467 = Henry Thwaites

1. Sir William Ingleby = Joan Stapleton
2. Ellen Ingleby = Robert Eure (she m2. Sir John Constable)
3 (a) Anne Eure b 1463 = Ralph Constable
3 (b) Isabel Eure b 1464= William Constable
3 (c) Ellen Eure b 1467 = Henry Thwaites

1. John Constable = Margaret Umfreville
2. John Constable d bef 18 Mar 1477/78 = Lora Fitz Hugh (he m2 Ellen
Ingleby)
3. (a) Ralph Constable = Anne Eure b 1463
3. (b) William Constable = Isabel Eure b 1464

This is directly contradictory to the Yorkshire Pedigrees view that Anne, Isabel and Ellen were daughters of John Constable and Ellen Ingleby. On the construction above, when John Constable married Ellen Ingleby as a second marriage for both of them, they then married two of John's sons to two of Ellen's daughters.

As to who was the Henry Thwaites that married Ellen Eure, it must have been Henry number 3 (a) below, son of Edmond and father of Henry d 1520. If true this has implications for the descendants of the Gresham/Neville marriage mentioned in this thread.
