Administrative / biographical background: |
There is no direct evidence that Oakham was a Segrave holding, but there are suggestive indications: John Viscount Beaumont (d. 1460), was the third husband of Katherine dowager duchess of Norfolk; Ardebugh is possibly Burrough-on-the-Hill (Leics.), associated with Great Dalby (Leics.) in 1586-7; [Cf. BCM/D/5/30, Kirby Bellars.] in 1364 Thomas de Astley held land in Pickwell of John de Mowbray, who permitted it to be granted to a chantry in the church of Manton near Oakham: above, BCM/D/5/37/4 [GC 3556]. Furthermore, much of John (VI) de Mowbray's inheritance was in the hands of feoffees from the 1440s: above, BCM/D/5/9/5 [SC 598], BCM/D/5/53/2 [GCR 193], and below, BCM/D/5/78/3-4 [GC 4234, GC 4241]. |
