William Stourton, 2nd Baron Stourton

William Stourton, 2nd Baron Stourton (c. 1430-1479) was the son of John Stourton and Marjory Wadham.

He succeeded to his father's title in 1462. His father had been a supporter of the House of Lancaster,[1] but William enjoyed the confidence of Edward IV. In 1469 he sat on the commission of oyer and terminer which condemned Henry Courtenay and Thomas Hungerford of Rowden to death for treason.[2] He was also close to the King's brother-in-law John de la Pole, 2nd Duke of Suffolk, and two Stourton-de la Pole marriages took place in the next generation.

He married Margaret Chidiock (born about 1425) daughter of Sir John Chidiock , sometimes styled Baron FitzPayne, and Catherine Lumley; they had at least three sons:

John, became Baron in 1479.

William, became Baron in 1487.

Edward, became Baron in 1523

and two daughters:

Katherine, who married firstly Sir William Berkeley, secondly Henry Grey, 4th (7th) Baron Grey of Codnor, and thirdly William de la Pole.

Joan, who married Tristram Fauntleroy

Sir William Stourton, Lord of the Manor of Stourton, Co. Wilts., son and heir of Sir John Stourton, of Preston, Co. Somerset, and of Stourton, Co. Wilts., by Catherine, his wife, daughter of Henry, Lord Beaumont, confirmed by Hoare's copy of the College of Arms pedigree and by Edmondson. Collins placed him as eldest son of Sir John Stourton, by his second wife, Jane, daughter of Ralph, Lord Basset. Harleian MS. 1074 shewed him as eldest son of John Stourton without giving his mother's name. John Stourton, of Preston, senior, described himself in his will as brother of William Stourton, son and heir of John Stourton, sometime Lord of Stourton. In the inscription to Edith Stourton's memory she is called "Editha Soror' Will'i Storton." He appears to have been one of her trustees of the Manor of Ashmore, Co. Dorset. Sir William Dugdale started his pedigree of the Stourton family with this Sir William Stourton, stating that the family was of great antiquity in Wiltshire, taking its denomination from the town of Stourton, and it from the river Stoure, on the bank whereof it was situated.

He had a remainder in his father's Preston Pluckenet property in tail, contingent on failure of issue of his father by Alice, his wife.

With his brother-in-law, Sir Reginald Stourton, he was appointed by the king on the 20th October, 1462, a commissioner to array and muster the king's liege subjects of Co.

With him at Salisbury were included Sir Maurice Berkeley, knight of his body, who was undoubtedly the father-in-law of his son, John, 3rd Lord Stourton.

Sir Maurice Berkeley, whose daughter, Katherine, became wife of John, 3rd Lord Stourton, was father of Sir William Berkeley, of Beverston, who died in 1486 sine prole, and Katherine, Lady Stourton, was his sister and heir.

This Sir William Berkeley married Katherine, daughter of William, 2nd Lord Stourton, and was heir of his father (among other estates,) to the Manor of Great Kingston, Co. Dorset, which was holden of George Plantagenet, Duke of Clarence. After his death Katherine (Stourton,) his widow, became wife of William, or we think Henry, Lord Grey, of Codnor, and she, as Katherine, Lady Grey, was Lady of the above Manor, and as such she, about the 18th November, 1503, granted to her brother, William, 5th Lord Stourton, the right of patronage pro hac vice, who then presented William Turner to the rectory there.

Wilts., son and heir of Sir John Stourton, of Preston, Co. Somerset, and of Stourton, Co. Wilts., by Catherine, his wife, daughter of Henry, Lord Beaumont, confirmed by Hoare's copy of the College of Arms pedigree and by Edmondson. Collins placed him as eldest son of Sir John Stourton, by his second wife, Jane, daughter of Ralph, Lord Basset. Harleian MS. 1074 shewed him as eldest son of John Stourton without giving his mother's name. John Stourton, of Preston, senior, described himself in his will as brother of William Stourton, son and heir of John Stourton, sometime Lord of Stourton. In the inscription to Edith Stourton's memory she is called "Editha Soror' Will'i Storton." He appears to have been one of her trustees of the Manor of Ashmore, Co. Dorset. Sir William Dugdale started his pedigree of the Stourton family with this Sir William Stourton, stating that the family was of great antiquity in Wiltshire, taking its denomination from the town of Stourton, and it from the river Stoure, on the bank whereof it was situated. He had a remainder in his father's Preston Pluckenet property in tail, contingent on failure of issue of his father by Alice, his wife. https://archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/103/mode/1up Pg.103 Sir William Stourton married, 21 Richard II., Elizabeth, daughter and coheir of Sir John Moyne, of Maddington, Co.

Essex, with the advowson of the church there, in his demesne as of fee, as being settled to him and his heirs for ever, and being so seised, he had granted that Lordship, Manor and Advowson to Elizabeth, his daughter, then wife of Sir William Stourton, to hold of the said Elizabeth and the heirs of her body lawfully issuing by her husband, William Stourton, and that on the 20th May, 21 Richard II., a license had been obtained from the King confirming the said grant, and the Inquisition proved that John Stourton was son and next heir of the said Elizabeth by Sir William Stourton. .... etc. https://archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/106/mode/1up Pg.106 .... that his son, John Stourton, called "Junior" (afterwards Lord Stourton), presented on the 5th of January, 1427. The fact that in this entry John Stourton is called "Junior," supports our contention that John Stourton, of Preston and Brimpton, his uncle, described himself as "Senior" to distinguish himself from his nephew, John, 1st Lord Stourton.(*) .... etc. William, 2nd Lord Stourton, presented on the 29th of March, 1477, but his son, John, 3rd Lord Stourton (called by Newcourt a knight only), never presented.

But Harleian MS. 1074 shewed William, 2nd Lord Stourton, and Sir Reginald Stourton as the only two sons of John, 1st Lord Stourton, although the other authorities alleged there were (with John and Nicholas Stourton) four sons. They all agreed that Sir Reginald Stourton had a daughter, who married Oliver Calminow, alias Carminow. Sir Reginald Stourton is also mentioned under William, 2nd Lord Stourton. iii.- — John Stourton, who obiit sine prole, and a son (with his brother Nicholas) of John, 1st Lord Stourton, according to Edmondson and Collins, but son (with his brother Nicholas,) of Sir Reginald Stourton, in Hoare's copy of the College of Arms pedigree. iv. — Nicholas Stourton, obiit sine prole, confirmed as in the case of his brother, John Stourton, but neither he nor his brother John, were shewn as sons of John, 1st Lord Stourton, in Harl.

With his brother-in-law, Sir Reginald Stourton, he was appointed by the king on the 20th October, 1462, a commissioner to array and muster the king's liege subjects of Co.

Somerset, one of the Puisne Judges of the Court of Common Pleas. Lord Stourton succeeded his father in the Stourton peerage on St. Catherine's day, 25th November, 1462(*). He inherited the vast estates which his father succeeded to, some of which descended paternally, as coming from Sir William Stourton, and some through his wife, Elizabeth Moigne ; and those which John, Lord Stourton, inherited under the charter of John Hame, and by purchase, as well as by favour of Henry VI. He was born about 1432, and was aged 30 years on the 25th November, 1462, and in the same year he had livery of his fathers estates, but his homage was respited, .... etc. https://archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/227/mode/1up Pg.227 This estate was settled as the jointure of Margaret, Lady Stourton, who after the death of her first husband, William, 2nd Lord Stourton, presented with her second husband.

Sir Maurice Berkeley, whose daughter, Katherine, became wife of John, 3rd Lord Stourton, was father of Sir William Berkeley, of Beverston, who died in 1486 sine prole, and Katherine, Lady Stourton, was his sister and heir. This Sir William Berkeley married Katherine, daughter of William, 2nd Lord Stourton, and was heir of his father (among other estates,) to the Manor of Great Kingston, Co. Dorset, which was holden of George Plantagenet, Duke of Clarence. After his death Katherine (Stourton,) his widow, became wife of William, or we think Henry, Lord Grey, of Codnor, and she, as Katherine, Lady Grey, was Lady of the above Manor, and as such she, about the 18th November, 1503, granted to her brother, William, 5th Lord Stourton, the right of patronage pro hac vice, who then presented William Turner to the rectory there. https://archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/235/mode/1up Pg.235 The Other royal commissioner, with William, Lord Stourton and Sir Maurice Berkeley, was John Cheney, then one of the Esquires of the body of King Edward. We are inclined to think he became eventually the second husband ot Margaret, widow of our William, Lord Stourton, and consequently identical with the John, Lord Cheyney, K.G., who died sine prole on the 30th May, 1499. https://archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/239/mode/1up Pg.239 Lord Stourton, had, by Margaret (Chidiock,) his wife, the following issue : — i. — The Right Honourable John, Lord Stourton, who succeeded his father, William, 2nd Lord Stourton, as 3rd Baron of Stourton, Co.

She married (1) Sir William Berkeley, of Beverston, Co.

In these records he mentioned particularly William, 5th Lord Stourton, who had at that time succeeded to the peerage. He also named his own sister, Katherine Berkeley, as Dame Katherine Stourton, who was then the widow of John, 3rd Lord Stourton. She married (2) William, or, as we think, Henry, Lord Grey of Codnor, and as Katherine, Lady Grey, she was, as widow and executrix of her first husband. Sir William Berkeley, Lady of the Manor of Great Kington, which he had held as heir to his father in 1474, and about the 18th November, 1503, she granted to her brother, William, 5th Lord Stourton, the right of patronage, pro hac vice, who then presented to that rectory.

On her marriage in 1476, her father, William, Lord Stourton, gave her under her marriage settlement a portion of 100 marks, which Prince, in his Worthies of Devon, thus curiously commented on, when he said it was "a portion held so very small in this (his) age, that a very ordinary farmer, or shopkeeper, would be loath to give it with a daughter, or take it with a wife." .... etc. James Chudleigh, by Margaret (Stourton) his wife, left issue, and they were ancestors of the now extinct house of the Baronets Chudleigh, of Ashton, Co.

The pedigree we show comes from BP1934 (Mowbray) and is assumed to be the one that is deemed by TCP to be insecure down to the Sir William who was alive in 1325. Botulph de Stourton (a c1070) m.

However, as was kindly brought to our attention by a site visitor (APH, 19.03.06), the dates for any such Grace Hungerford do not match with Sir John's likely dates.
