THOMAS SON OF
THOMAS
CHARLTON
OF APLEY
231 [Writ not extant.]
SHROPSHIRE.
[Inquisition by
William
Banastre, escheator
1399–1400.]
[Details of jurors and escheator missing through damage to ms.]
[The first part, concerning the manors of Harcourt, held of the king in chief by knight service, annual value 60s., and Aston Eyre, held of
Richard
earl of Arundel
, service unknown, annual value 100s., is torn off, as is the edge of the later part. Some details are given in the inquisitions on
John
de
Charlton
, brother of the elder
Thomas ( CIPM XV, no. 329CIPM XVI, no. 304CCR 1402–5 , pp.22–3, 51–2)].
He also held the manor of Great Wytheford. One half has an annual value of 10 marks, and the other half is held of the
earl of Arundel
. These lands were held by Thomas the father when he died. After his death the custody of his lands and the marriage without disparagement of his heir, the younger
Thomas
Charleton
, were granted, for a payment of £50, to
John
de
Harleston, clerk
,
Thomas
de
Overton, clerk
, and
John
Bonette
[ CPR 1381–5 , p.484, 22 June 1388 ], to the use of
Richard
earl of Arundel
until the full age of the heir, or of the next heir if he died under age, and so from heir to heir. They held them from the death of the elder Thomas until 15 Feb. 1389 to the use of the earl. Then they sold the custody of the lands and marriage of the heir to
John
de
Knightley
, and so they remain in the king’s hands in the keeping of the said
John
de
Knightley
.
Thomas
de
Charlton
the father long before he died granted by his indenture to
John
Attewode, knight
, the manor of Apley; one quarter of the manor of Preston on the Weald Moors; 4 messuages, 1 toft, 60 a. arable and 10 a. meadow in Wellington; 1 messuage and 1 virgate in Wappenshall; 1 messuage and 1 carucate in Kinnersley; and 1 carucate in Haughton and Trilwardyn; to hold to himself for life and to his executors for one year after his death.
After one year they came into the king’s hands owing to the minority of Thomas the son, and the king by letters patent dated 8 Feb. 1392 [ CPR 1391–6 , pp.23–4] granted them all to
John
Knyghteley
from the end of the executors’ year during the minority of the heir, on payment of 32 marks. They are still held by him of
Hugh
Burnell
, service unknown, annual value 100s.
Thomas
Charlton
the younger died on 31 Jan. 1399. Helen his sister and Thomas son of Anne, another sister, were next heirs. Helen was aged 12 years.
She died on 3 July 1400. Thomas son of Anne is next heir, aged 5 years.
