About Robert de Wyleby


Another name for Robert was Robert Willoughby. He married Emma.


'Shangton', in A History of the County of Leicestershire: Volume 5, Gartree Hundred, (London, 1964) pp. 293-297. British History Online https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/leics/vol5/pp293-297 [accessed 24 March 2024]

William Lestrange II was probably dead before 1313 when John de Wileby held 1/9 knight's fee in Shangton and Hardwick. In 1315 he settled the estate upon his son Robert and Robert's wife Emma. He was dead before 1327 and perhaps before 1324.

In 1360 Robert, son of Robert de Wileby, granted to Thomas Drakelowe and Elizabeth his wife all his lands in Shangton and Hardwick for the life of their son Thomas, who had probably married an Alice Willoughby, perhaps Robert's daughter. In 1366 Thomas Drakelowe is referred to as lord of Shangton.
