He held in tail male the castle of Harbottle and manor of Otterburn according to the form of a fine, shown to the jurors, made with the king's licence [15 Feb. 1378: CPR 1377-81, pp. 122, 134] East. three weeks 1378 [CP 25/1/181/14, no. 3] by which Gilbert de Umframvill, earl of Angus , acknowledged them to be the right of John Haburgh, clerk , and John de Pykeworth, clerk , as those which they had of his gift, and they granted and rendered them to him in the same court to hold to him and the heirs of his body of the king for the services due, with successive reversions, all in tail male: to his brothers Robert de Umframvill, knight , and Thomas de Umframvill ; to Thomas de Umfravill son of Joan daughter of Adam de Rodom ; and to that Thomas's brother Robert de Umfravill ; remainder to the earl's right heirs. [The apparent contradictions in the Umfrevill genealogy are explained by Complete Peerage, i. 151 and note c, where it is suggested that the issue of the earl's brother Thomas by Joan de Rodom may have been illegitimate.] The earl and his brother Robert died without issue. After Robert's death his brother Thomas was seised and had issue Thomas, father of Gilbert named in the writ. Thomas brother of Robert and Thomas's son Gilbert also died without male issue and the jurors say that the castle and manor ought to revert to Joan's son Robert de Umframvill . Gilbert Dumframvill, earl of Angus and lord of Kyme , by his charter shown to the jurors dated at Kyme 1 March 1378 gave to Henry Asty , John de Haburgh, clerk , Thomas de Horslee senior and Richard de Ovyngham, clerk , 4 cottages and 10 husbandlands with his bondmen and their families in Alwinton, 4 cottages and 40 a. arable in Biddlestone, 100 a. arable in Burradon, 2 cottages and 20 a. arable in Sharperton, 80 a. arable in Farnham, 4 cottages and 30 a. arable in Ingram, 6 cottages and 6 husbandlands in Netherton, 24 a. arable in Clennell, 5 cottages and 60 a. arable in Rothley and £5 rent yearly from the free tenants in those townships. By an indenture dated at Kyme 26 July 1380 the feoffees granted them to Thomas de Umfremvill senior , brother of Robert brother of the earl, in tail male. Thomas senior died without male issue and the lands reverted to [his son] Thomas Dumframvill son of Joan daughter of Adam de Rodom in tail male with successive remainders to Robert Dumframvill son of Joan and the right heirs of Gilbert Dumframvill, earl of Angus and lord of Kyme . The succession given above is repeated. The castle of Harbottle and manor of Otterburn are held of the king in chief by knight service, annual value only 20 marks because of destruction by the Scots. All the other lands are held immediately of Henry Percy, earl of Northumberland , of the barony of Alnwick for 4 marks yearly, annual value only 10 marks for the same reason. He held the manor of Fawns and 40s. rent in West Whelpington, a tenement and 40 a. arable in Kirkwhelpington, a tenement and 40 a. arable in Ingoe of John, duke of Bedford , of his barony of Ovingham for 5s. yearly at the feasts of St. Cuthbert in March and Sept. in equal portions. Annual values: the manor of Fawns only 40s. for the reason given above; the tenement and 40 a. in Kirkwhelpington, 5s.; the tenement and 40 a. in Ingoe, 5s.
