John Dynelay of Downham died seised in fee tail to himself and the heirs of his body of the manor of Downham by gift of Henry de Dovnum, clerk . Owing to his death and the minority of Richard Dynelay , his son and heir, who died a minor in ‪Henry V‬’s wardship,
2/3 of 2/3 manor, except for 38s. 2d. rent and the relief and services of the manorial tenants, came into the hands of ‪Henry V‬ and are still in ‪ Henry VI ’s hands. The manor is held of the king in chief of the English crown by 1/4 knight’s fee, annual value of these 2 parts of the manor, 6 marks 4s. 5d.

Richard died on 26 June 1420. John Dynelay his brother is his next heir, aged 21 years on 21 June last.

No other lands or tenements came into the hands of ‪Henry V‬ or are still in those of ‪ Henry VI for the above reasons because Margaret widow of John father of Richard survives and holds 1/3 of 2/3 manor in dower after the death of John her husband and of the inheritance of John brother of Richard, by assignment of ‪Henry V‬ in his Chancery [CCR 1413–19, p.309].
