Writ Head

317 Writ, melius sciri . ‡ 3 Dec. 1399. [Hertilpole].

An inquisition held by Alan Waldeyve, escheator of Richard II , [ CIPM XVII, no. 605] found that Nicholas Ryvell and John de Conyngesby , clerks, William de Halughton and Humphrey de Halughton , by their charter, conveyed to Ralph de Bracebrigge, knight , and Joan his wife the manors of Kingsbury and Plumpton, and all the other lands which they had of his grant, to them and the heirs of Ralph, and that Ralph died on 20 Oct. 1395. Joan survived him and held them of the king in chief of his manor of Cheylesmore. John son of Ralph died under age, and Ralph, brother of John and son of the elder Ralph, is next heir and under age. But William de Lodyngton , the king’s attorney in the Common Bench, says that Ralph was alone seised of these lands in his demesne as of fee, and that Joan had no status in them as the inquisition supposed.
